How to become a mermaid

Chapter 107 Teaching Hours
After finishing the preparatory work, Moni is ready to start teaching officially.

He walked to the main control console, pointed to the rudder that he had pulled out, and said to Shaman Lair: "This is the thing that controls the direction. You only need to dial it hard with your hands to adjust the course of the ship." .”

With that said, Moni started to demonstrate.

Because the boat is stopped now, no matter how he dials it, it will be fine.

Although Shamanleir has seen the rudder of a ship, after all, he has only seen it, and has not operated it himself.

After Mooney demonstrated, he couldn't wait to try it out.

Holding the handle of the rudder, Shamanlael turned it hard.

This thing is a little heavier than he imagined, and it takes a little effort to move it.

"That's right, that's it!" Seeing Shamanlear turn the rudder, Mooney encouraged him aloud.

"Turning to the left and right to the end is the full rudder, and the whole ship will quickly deviate in the direction of the rudder."

"As for the steering at other small angles, it depends on personal experience. However, since the Moni is an old ship, the rudder is not as sensitive as a new ship, so it is recommended that you turn the rudder a little more each time so that you can see it turn. .”

"In short, the larger the angle of turn, the faster and more obvious the boat will deflect." Moni explained in detail how to use the rudder.

"Understood!" Samantel nodded clearly.

Although he has never actually sailed a boat, Shaman Lair still knows the principle.

After Samantel tried to turn the rudder a few times and got a little familiar with this thing, Money then introduced him to other things.

"This is what controls the fuel tank." Mooney pointed to the only red lever on the console.

After speaking, he walked to the glass pillar standing in the center of the power room.

Mooney groped carefully on the plinth under the glass pillar and found a black clasp.

After he pressed the buckle, the top of the glass column opened, revealing the flint inside.

Taking out the flint inside, Moni explained to Shaman Lair: "I have shown you this thing before, and it is the main fuel of the Moni—the flint."

"Whenever the color of the flint becomes dull, without any luster, and looks like a stone, it means that the energy in it has been consumed and needs to be taken out and replaced."

"Look at this one, it's already a little dark, indicating that it has been used."

"But you can still see the red luster when you put it under the light, which means that it can still be used for a while, and there is no need to rush to replace it." Mooney said, pointing to the flint in his hand.

Remembering that the flint should not touch water, Samantel did not take it this time, but just looked at it from a distance.

Compared with the unused flints he has seen before, the flint in Moni's hand is obviously much darker, and the outer layer is not transparent, as if covered with a thick layer of ash. past features.

After reading it once, Samantel nodded and said, "Got it!"

"Very good." Seeing that he understood, Moni put the flint back in place.

He walked back to the main console, smiled and said, "I will leave all the flints in my hand to you. They can be used for about two to three years without the need to fly."

"You can contact me again when you run out, and I will send you another batch!" Moni said with a smile.

Hearing that Moni planned to give himself all the flints, Shamanleir was taken aback.

Then, a little bit of regret welled up in my heart.

He still remembered that when Mooney showed him Flint, he knew that Flint should not touch water, so he grabbed a handful with wet hands and deliberately destroyed some Flint.

At that time, it was only because of anger that he did such a naive thing.

If he had known that these things would end up in his own hands, he wouldn't have done it!
However, if Mooney gave himself all the flints, how would he sail the boat by himself?

Thinking of this, Samantel asked Moni suspiciously: "What about you? What about your new boat?"

Hearing that Samantel was actually caring about him, Moni was in a particularly comfortable mood, with a pleasant smile on his face, and explained with a smile:
"Don't worry about me, there are flints for sale on Sailing Island, but the price is a bit expensive, and it's not cost-effective to order in large quantities. I will buy a few for temporary use, and then drive a new boat to find a new batch of dragons I am familiar with. flint."

"You know, I am taking the Red Dragon Potion, and the ingredients are all provided by a Red Dragon. My relationship with that Red Dragon is actually pretty good now, and I can buy flint from it at an affordable price. "

Hearing what Moni said, Shamanleir was relieved.

Since he has made arrangements, he doesn't have to worry too much.

"Aside from flint, can other fuels be used?" Shamanlael suddenly thought of this question.

It would be too troublesome if he needed Moni to provide him with fuel every time. If he drove the boat far away, wouldn't he have to come back to find Moni when he ran out of fuel?
Hearing the question from Samantel, Moni showed a smile that he had expected, and said, "Of course we can use other fuels!"

He pointed to the glass pillar in the center of the room, and said, "I said before that this is something that can transform the energy inside a gemstone. That is to say, any gemstone can be used as fuel."

"Flint is the most energy-rich gemstone known so far, so it is the most commonly used, but if you don't have flint on hand, you can use other gemstones instead!"

"That's it... That's great!" Hearing Moni's words, Shamanlaer nodded happily.

Although he doesn't have any other gemstones in his hand at the moment, having more choices makes him feel more at ease.

After talking about the fuel, Mooney walked to the main console again, put his hand on the only red lever, and said:
"This lever has already been said before. This is what controls the fuel tank. Pushing it down will speed up the energy conversion. The more you push, the faster the energy conversion will be, and the faster the ship will be."

"If you need to stop the boat, push the lever to the uppermost position. At this time, the Flint will stop supplying energy, and the boat will gradually stop."

"A little attention should be paid to the fact that the pull rod cannot be kept pushed to the bottom for a long time, which will cause the fuel tank to be overloaded and reduce its service life." Mooney reminded.

"Oh~ I see!" Hearing Moni's reminder, Shamanleer nodded.

This red lever is equivalent to the "throttle" of the Moni. When it needs to accelerate, it can be pulled to the bottom, and the ship will move forward at full speed, but it cannot always maintain full speed, which will make the ship unable to bear it.

Seeing that Samantel seemed to have understood, Moni clapped his hands and said with a smile:

"Okay, I've finished explaining how to sail a boat! Next, I just need to practice more."

"However, there is no way to go to sea for the time being, so I can't let you practice in actual combat. I can only take you to try it yourself after the tide moon passes!"
