Chapter 131 Knife throwing, T-word tactics 【Subscribe!Ask for a ticket! 】

It is a very logical idea to enhance close combat effectiveness by purchasing combat skills.

However, looking at the only 1000 or [-] game points in his pocket, Rorschach couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

Why only one thousand and two, not twelve thousand, not 12 thousand...

why? !

Entering the [Game Mall], looking at the dazzling array of mall interfaces, Rorschach could only turn away his greedy eyes, and turned to those skills or items whose prices were within his acceptable range.

"Search for skills and items whose price is less than [-]!"

With a silent recitation in his heart, the interface of the [Game Mall] suddenly changed, leaving only a handful of skills and items left.

For a thousand game points, you can only buy one [Superb] level item, or a relatively basic melee skill.

And among the limited choices, Rorschach still found two skills that were helpful to him——[Flying Knife Throwing] and [Western Sword Art]

After thinking twice, he is still more inclined to buy [Flying Knife Throwing]

On the one hand, the skill [Flying Knife Throwing] can complement the shortcoming of the flintlock pistol's slow firing and low ammunition, and give full play to his long-range advantage.

For a captain who is in charge of coordinating the overall situation, it’s okay if he charges into battle like other crew members once or twice.

But doing that every time is somewhat detrimental.

Most importantly, this skill can effectively prevent the enemy from approaching and keep him away from danger.

When faced with danger, if you cannot stop or defeat it, the best way is to stay away from it as much as possible!

On the other hand, the skill [Western Sword Art] can be acquired through independent learning.

On the Poseidon, the captain, O'Neill Jr., is a master of swordsmanship.

What's more, it's the one with the dual-wielding berserker!

Since he can learn from O'Neill in private, there is no need to spend a thousand game points to buy skills.

[Whether to buy the skill "Flying Knife Throwing", it will cost a thousand game points. 】

"Yes!"

With the confirmation of purchase, the basic skills and knowledge of how to throw throwing knives drilled into Rorschach's vast mind and found a place in the depths of memory.

However, this is far from enough!
F-level skill mastery, at most, allows him to keep from missing the target when throwing knives.

If he wants to reach the level of accurate throwing, or even hitting where he points, he must improve his skill mastery as soon as possible.

And without game points to upgrade directly, the only way for Rorschach is to practice non-stop, practice crazily!

. . .

After loading all the cargo and supplies of the British trading ship on board and leaving it to fend for itself at sea, the Poseidon set sail again and quickly disappeared above the turbulent sea level.

After a week of sailing, the Poseidon once again arrived in Havana, the capital of Cuba.

On the one hand, it is to sell the stolen goods, and on the other hand, it is also to fulfill the cooperation promise with Torres.

20.00% of the cargo profit, although it sounds a bit painful, but it is very worth it.

He needed the fleet information provided by Torres, and he also needed Torres, the referrer, to recommend him to join the Knights Templar.

Therefore, he does not intend to fall out with Torres.

At least not yet...

Looking at the rows of white brick houses in Havana and the tall palm trees swaying in the wind, Rorschach, who was standing at the stern of the boat, couldn't help flashing his eyes.

"Jack!"

Calling the quartermaster and first officer of the Poseidon to his side, Rorschach gave some instructions in his ear, and the latter nodded and took the order to go.

Considering that his oriental face was too flamboyant and easily recognizable, Rorschach specially asked Big O'Neill to make himself a black hooded robe similar to an assassin.

Hiding that handsome and unique face under the hood, Rorschach walked through the bustling streets and came straight to the Governor's Mansion.

Torres was obviously very satisfied with the profit share of the first shipment, and invited Rorschach to stay and have dinner with him.

Of course, Rorschach has no reason to refuse this kind of necessary entertainment.

What's more, the dinner in the Governor's Mansion is not something you can enjoy every day...

At dinner, Ducasse was also there on time.

With the rapid increase of the crew, the weapons and ammunition consumed by each plunder have also become astonishing.

Therefore, Rorschach took the opportunity to reach an order worth [-] pesos, adding a batch of gunpowder, shells and weapons.

Under the auspices of a great gentleman named "Benefit", the governor of Spain and Cuba, the French arms dealer and the pirates of the Ming Dynasty sat at the same table and had a happy and sumptuous dinner...

After staying in Havana for a few days, the Poseidon went out to sea again to hunt.

And this time, it was the target provided by Big O'Neill's businessman friend, a spice carrier escorted by a frigate and returning to Spain!
In this era, spices and silk were precious goods from the East.

Especially spices, under the same volume, the price is much more expensive than sugar.

Therefore, spice ships have always been rare and precious prey in the eyes of pirates.

But this time, the opponents facing the Poseidon are no longer just armed merchant ships, but also regular navy frigates!
. . .

Bang bang bang!
The roar of the cannons, the shells flying past the air, fell on the water one after another, splashing layers of shocking water

On the turbulent waves, two two-masted brigs, one large and one small, constantly changed their positions while firing guns, trying to use the sides of the hulls to face the opposite bow or stern.

Because the ship's guns are all installed on the side of the hull, the ship's maximum firepower can only be exerted when the ship's side faces the enemy.

So whoever can adjust the hull first and aim the artillery at the other side will be able to take the initiative.

This is the T-word battle method that every warship is familiar with in the era of sailing warships!
Just as Rorschach was steering the steering wheel himself, concentrating on dealing with the Spanish frigate, the lookout on the mast suddenly shouted:
"Captain, the target has escaped!"

Meeting Big O'Neal's eyes, Rorschach seemed to have heard his inner worries, and the corner of his mouth slightly raised:
"It's okay, as long as you kill this guy blocking the way, it won't escape our palms..."

"Leave the sails, turn the rudder!"

Perhaps Rorschach's steering skills are better than the opponent's, or the Poseidon is lighter and has better flexibility, so that it quickly seized the gap where the frigate turned slowly.

Under the continuous bombardment of chain bombs, the Spanish frigate, which was more powerful than the Poseidon, was cut off most of the sails, and even a mast was cut off in the middle.

Without the mast and the sails that controlled the sails, the frigate moved more and more slowly, and eventually fell into a paralysis.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Poseidon adopted T-shaped tactics, circled to the bow of the frigate, and bombarded it with fierce firepower!

Bang bang bang!
After several bombings, looking at the bruised and devastated frigate, Rorschach put down the binoculars and handed it to Big O'Neill:

"Now, no one can stop us..."

　Thanks for the rewards of "丨Mo Xueyiyun" and "Qian Keke", so heartfelt!
