Chapter 114: Dragon Bone

If a person never visited the ship-building factory and port in the City of Dawn, he wouldn’t believe the tales of it.

No one could imagine a super ship-building factory as tall and broad as ten soccer fields combined would be. They also would not be able to understand why had the City of Dawn built such a large ship-building factory.

The factory had 2000 soldiers guarding it. These soldiers didn’t belong to a legion, and their job was to protect the factory. Of course, the work also involved taking care of the port, which was three kilometers away from the factory. If an accident occurred, the Tauren Warriors and soldiers at the Rainbow Lake could immediately provide support.

There were no golden beaches in the south. Only a very hard rocky reef had been found, and it was located above sea level.

But due to its geographical position, the sea breeze was typically peaceful, and storms were rare.

However, since they were in subtropics and located along the coastline, it often rained.

When William entered the city through the city gate, the sky had turned dark.

He realized that it was about to rain. So he slapped Big Bear’s buttocks and had it follow his guards to take shelter from the rain. Then, he walked towards the biggest ship-building room in the factory.

As he entered the room, he could not help but look up at the super warship that belonged to him, the Dawn Vessel.

That was right.

He observed the massive battleship. It had three decks and three masts, and it had been entirely painted with black color, and it also sparkled like silver. This was his super warship.

Reaching a length of 121 meters, it was 32 meters wide. For a short trip, it could support an entire legion, and for long trips, it could accommodate 1200 passengers.

The deck and the body of the ship were mostly made up of gold quality black hophornbeam infused with mithril. Even though almost the entirety of the ship was painted black, it still shined with a silvery light.

The ship moved with the power of the wind. Other than the masts, which had not been equipped, the ship could also rely on 99 magical crystals for power. It could reach speeds of between 180 to 260 knots per hour.

On top of that, 108 cannon holes had been provided on each side of the ship.

After all, this world had gunpowder and snipers…

In particular, magical cannons were very high-level weapons. Besides the powerful human nations and a few other Elfin nations, no one else possessed such cannons.

The Gnomes and the Dwarves had also developed cannons, but these cannons were used to supplement the attacking force of grand duchies and kingdoms. They were considered as strategic weapons in the middle part of the game.

Furthermore, niter ores were classified as national resources. They were not something that could be circulated in the market.

“Luckily, it’s only version 1.0. Thankfully, the villages are only beginner-level. If the Iron Nation and the Black Lava Nation have cannons, the City of Dawn would have no chance to develop.” William sighed.

It was not that the City of Dawn could not defend against the cannons.

But the problem was that such a defense would require an even stronger city wall, and William did not have enough mages to enchant such a city wall.

Could he conduct a secret transaction with Moses?

Impossible! Moses definitely would not do anything, and William did not want to sell himself either…

Luckily, the City of Dawn was located in the south, where the ore supplies were most abundant in the legendary continent. Of course, niter was included in these supplies. However, it was a pity that among the Gnomes Odom had brought, no one had inherited gunpowder or cannon making skills. Even if they had in the past, these skills had been lost now.

Thus, the 108 cannon holes could only be used as holes to shoot arrows from.

But they had no other choice. William had not found a sniper yet. It was a hidden occupation, after all, and the snipers were fierce but rare.

As he wondered about it,

A middle-aged elf dressed in a magical gray robe arrived in the room. William picked his eyebrows and smiled. “Andrew, is the Dawn Vessel almost complete?”

“Ah, my Lord.” Andrew was the royal shipbuilder and a Moonlight Elf. He was a master who could construct epic warships.

Making a warship was no easy thing. Strategic items like these warships were different from normal equipment. They did not have levels. Even in the human nations, it was considered a treasured item.

If it had not been the case, William would not have spent so much on the warship. All the resources he had spent on it amounted to a few hundred thousand gold coins. If he had not used it on the warship, he would have been able to afford half a set of middle-level legendary equipment…

It could even be said that it was not easy even for human empires to build this kind of warship.

A big problem was finding a shipbuilder. Collecting materials also gave trouble. More importantly, the human nations on the legendary continent typically did not invest in ships.

Andrew was a level 56 wood-type mage. But his sub-occupation was much more important than his main occupation. Furthermore, he trained his main occupation in order to support his sub-occupation. If he did not do so, then Andrew, who had reached 100 years in age, would not remain at such a low level.

“Master, it is not as simple as you say it is.” Andrew sighed. “You asked us to build the body of the ship with all our strength. We made sure to use the best materials we have.”

“Thus, we chose the black iron tree from the Blackleaf forest, which is the most suitable…”

“After we purchased the precious black iron tree, we had to enchant it, process it, dry it, and infuse mithril into it. Then, we had to enchant it again and equip it…”

“But the frame of this ship has become strong. I am no longer able to control it. Ordinary dragon bones would not be able to endure it.”

“Dragon bones?” William laughed mysteriously. It seemed like Andrew and the rest did not know about the dragon-slaying.

Realizing this, he asked the staff in the ship-building factory to move aside and make room. Andrew and the staff did as they were ordered.

Then, with a wave of William’s hand,

The Fire Dragon’s corpse, a dozen meters in length, appeared out of thin air!

“Dragon!!!”

“My God, a Giant Dragon. Is that a Giant Dragon?”

“Where did this dragon come from? Is it dead?”

Andrew did not care about the shouts from the rest. He walked in disbelief towards the corpse of the Fire Dragon. He touched the broken scales of the dragon, its eyelids, and even its mouth and teeth…

Subsequently.

Andrew gulped. His sharp ears had turned soft, and he was dumbfounded. “Master, did you slay a dragon?”

“Yeah, I accidentally killed the Fire Dragon at the Snow Mountain of the East Sea.” William shrugged his shoulders like it was no big deal.

The moment he finished his words.

The entire ship-building factory almost turned into a chaotic scene.

All the shipbuilders could not help but kneel down. They looked admiringly at their Lord, who was now a Dragon Slayer!

Andrew suddenly understood. He was about to kneel on the ground too, when William pulled him up. “The ship is 121 meters long. This Fire Dragon would be too small for it. Can you fuse the dragon bones together and add some rare materials to make it suitable for the warship?”

“Yes, of course, but we need even more mithril.” Andrew’s eyes were red. He wanted to swallow the Fire Dragon up in one gulp.

His eyes were hazy as if he was thinking of something. But he still continued. “Master, if you do not want these wings, I can make them into masts. Do you want its scales, blood, dragon crystal…”

“Ahem. Other than the dragon bones, I want everything…” William quickly stopped him from daydreaming.

Andrew understood. He would definitely allow William to keep the blood and dragon crystal. He had been too greedy.

William respected Andrew’s spirit for research. The Dawn Vessel was very important, but the other parts of the dragon were equally important to him. He could only shrug his shoulders. “I can only give you the dragon bones. What you need to do is to take out all the dragon bones.”

“But the dragon wings are very thick. How will you make masts out of them?”

“They are very thick. There is also a thick layer of scales on them. It is definitely very heavy. But master, have you thought of this? They are the wings of a Giant Dragon. They are magical materials.”

“When a Giant Dragon flaps its wings, it does not just rely on the power of its wings.”

“The wings rely on wind to allow the Giant Dragon to easily fly into the air. Thus, when the dragon wings come into contact with wind, they will become very light.”

“Thus, if I cut and stretch the dragon wings and apply some enchantment, I can turn it into a high-quality mast. It will also have a high defense. It would not be something that other masts could compare with.” Andrew looked at the corpse of the Giant Dragon and could not help but touch the corpse. His conduct was like that of when a child got a new toy. He could not let go of it.

William immediately laughed. “Then what are you waiting for? The bones and the wings of the dragon are yours. Just leave the rest untouched for me.”

“Really?”

“Andrew, I trust you.” William patted his shoulder earnestly.

For a moment.

Andrew’s eyes sparkled. It was as if he had seen his new life. It seemed like he had found his mission.

Thus, he threw the magical robe aside and held his dagger. He roared. “Let’s get to work. Everyone, let’s get to work. I will cut up the Fire Dragon. And remember, whoever dares to steal the flesh of the Fire Dragon, I will make sure to personally drown them in the ocean!”
