Lord: I have a skill talent tree

Time flies and it is February of the next year.

The research and development of the Flame Burst Cannon has come to an end. The magician used the skin of a monster snake that lives in magma, combined with a special processing technology and a newly designed inscription pattern to make a new thermal insulation material.

The new material is surprisingly effective. It not only completely protects the acceleration inscription pattern, but also greatly improves the acceleration effect and accuracy due to the complete mastery of the phase magnetic process.

The range of the Flame Burst Cannon has been increased to 3,000 meters.

This is already an extremely exaggerated degree.

However, all the researchers were not satisfied with this range and were dumbfounded.

Because according to the formula, the range should be more than 7,000 meters when fired at a 45-degree elevation angle, but the result is only 3,000 meters, which is obviously far from expectations.

So, they invested in a new round of research.

However, Ethan was very satisfied with the result, after all, it was three times higher than the original design requirements.

So after completing the land-based test, he couldn't wait to move a fire blast cannon for the experiment to the newly modified armed ship.

This kind of ship is only more than 30 meters long, with a streamlined design. In addition to the installation of the [Windbreaker] system, the deck has also been specially reinforced to cope with the vibration generated when firing.

At the same time, a retractable balance fin is installed on both sides of the hull. When sailing normally, it is retracted to ensure the streamline of the hull and reduce water resistance.

When the cannon is to be fired, it can be unfolded through a manual transmission device to increase the contact surface with the sea water to ensure the balance and stability of the hull when firing.

For the purpose of confidentiality, the fire blast cannon was arranged at night from transportation to installation.

Even the last step of transporting it to the ship was done by Ethan himself.

When everything was ready, it was just dawn the next day.

A ship with a giant protrusion covered with thick oilcloth on the deck and a streamlined shape slowly sailed away from the dock of the Lawson family in Port Vilen.

When the ship sailed 20 nautical miles, the tarpaulin on the deck was lifted, revealing the heavy fire blast cannon inside.

There are two experimental targets today, one is an uninhabited island, and the other is a small target ship.

When the armed ship arrived at the sea area near the designated island, Ethan released two extraordinary eagles to be on alert in the air.

After officially entering the range, the ship first activated the balancing fins to reduce the speed and ensure the stability of the ship.

Then two ordinary seamen who had received special training operated the fire blast cannon, including adjusting the elevation angle, correcting the trajectory, etc.

After everything was ready, the two seamen looked at Ethan together, waiting for his order.

Ethan nodded to them, indicating to start directly!

The seamen who received the order made a final fine adjustment, and then decisively pressed the ignition device.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, a bright flame the size of an egg dragged a long tail, made a graceful arc, and rushed towards the island.

"Boom!"

Another loud bang!

A mushroom cloud nearly 100 meters high rose on the island 2,000 meters away from the ship!

"Wow..."

"Ahhh..."

...

When the crew saw this scene, they took off their hats, jumped around on the deck, and waved to celebrate.

Ethan just smiled slightly and didn't react much.

Because he knew very well that hitting a fixed target did not mean that the experiment was successful. After all, this gun was used to attack moving targets at sea.

Therefore, the next target ship experiment was the top priority.

After a short celebration, Ethan asked people to release two lifeboats.

A simple small sail was installed on one of the boats, and someone had the sail completely fixed and sailed it away.

Then the operator came back in another boat.

When the operator came back, Ethan handed over the command to the captain of the armed ship, Jack Lawson.

Captain Jack was "carefully" selected by Ethan from his family.

His father was the captain of a cargo ship in the family and drifted on the sea all year round.

Anyone who has worked at sea knows that life at sea is extremely boring.

Without adjustment, people may go crazy.

Because his father ran the route of the Osho Empire, in order to live happily, he raised a little beauty in the Osho Empire, and then there was Jack Lawson.

Yes, Jack Lawson is an illegitimate child.

At first, his father only dared to raise him secretly outside.

But as his father found out that his original wife also cheated on him and gave birth to two bastards, he no longer had any scruples.

First, he divorced his original wife, and then brought the woman and child raised outside back home.

As long as the family adds a member, whether it is legitimate or illegitimate, its identity will generally be recognized.

Therefore, Jack Lawson successfully joined the Lawson family.

After graduating from Allen College at the age of 16, because his grades were not very good and he was not qualified to continue his studies, he joined his father's fleet and sailed with his father.

It took only half a year for him to basically learn all the rules of navigation.

Then he spent another three years learning captain command knowledge and trade knowledge from his father.

Now that he has achieved some success, his father has basically handed over all matters on the ship to him.

Among the younger generation of the Lawson family, he is very experienced in sea sailing.

Of course, Ethan chose him among the fourteen people who signed up for the new generation of armed ships, not because he was very qualified, but because his name was Jack.

The word Jack has always been synonymous with good luck, and Ethan hopes that he can bring good luck.

"Captain Jack, it's up to you next!"

Following Ethan's order, Jack smiled and nodded.

Then he immediately ordered the crew to take action, first put away the balance fins, then turn the bow and chase the target ship.

When catching up with the target ship, under Jack's command, the armed ship maintained a distance of about 2,000 meters from the target ship and traveled at a constant speed in parallel.

Then unfold the balance fins again and start to calibrate the fire blast cannon.

Because the target ship was too small and the distance was too far, the two ships were still moving, and it was extremely difficult to hit. The two gunners were sweating profusely while calibrating.

At this time, the psychological pressure on the two gunners was too great. They were afraid that they would miss the target and then leave a waste image in Ethan's mind.

Because of this mentality, there were constant mistakes in operation.

I wanted to raise the elevation angle, but I ended up lowering it.

I wanted to turn right three centimeters, but I ended up turning left.

After I realized I made a mistake, I felt even more psychological pressure, so that my usual movements that I was so skilled in were deformed.

Ethan had already noticed this, but he didn't say anything.

And Ethan could see it from such a distance, so Captain Jack, who was standing nearby, must have noticed it too.

He didn't yell at the two of them, but walked up and patted their shoulders, then teased: "Hey, guys, you've played too much with women these past two days, right!

Others played too much because their stuff got soft, but you two got soft, don't embarrass me, okay?"

Hearing this, the two gunners were a little embarrassed, but they relaxed a lot, and then began to concentrate on calibrating the fire blaster.

One minute later.

"Boom!"

The huge roar sounded again...
