How to become a mermaid

Chapter 110 Cannon
Hearing that Moni said that he would take himself to the muzzle of the gun, Shamanlear became interested.

He followed Moni out of the room and sat in the wooden wheelchair he had placed at the door of the room.

Yes, that's right, a wheelchair.

This was kindly provided by Moni. It is said that he was accidentally shot in the knee during a battle with pirates and was unable to move freely for a long time, so he bought the item.

Although this incident has been going on for more than 20 years, and this wheelchair is also an old item, at least it is still usable, and it is still very helpful for the legless mermaid Shamanleir.

After all, there are quite a lot of people on board now, so he can't keep walking on his head with his hands, that would be too unsightly.

As for letting Moni carry her away, that's absolutely impossible!

After taking a good position on the wheelchair, Samantel pushed the wheels on both sides with his hands, driving the wheelchair under him to roll forward slowly.

"Crunch ~ crunch ~"

The old logs creaked with each turn.

"Crunch ~ crunch ~"

Accompanied by such a tooth-piercing creaking sound, Shamanel followed behind Moni who was walking lightly, and walked to the cabin below.

Although Shamanleir still looked weird pushing the wheelchair like this, but fortunately it was dinner time, and the sailors on the ship had all gone to eat, and they didn't see many people along the way.

When he reached the cabin where the food was kept, Mooney stopped.

He turned his head to look at Shamanleir, and said, "This is where I store food, and also where I store shells. The muzzle is also here, just hidden behind those buckets."

Hearing Moni say that, Shamanleir was a little surprised.

In fact, he often passed by this cabin, but he never found that there was a cannon hidden in it.

After all, there were too many food and buckets inside. All kinds of boxes and buckets were piled up together, which made people's eyes dazzled. How could he carefully look at what was inside?

While Moni and Shamanleir were talking, the two sailors patrolling the cabin also paid attention to the situation outside the door and stepped forward to check the situation.

Seeing that it was Moni who came with the mermaid, they showed a little surprised expression on their faces and asked:

"Captain? Do you have anything to take?"

Hearing the question from his subordinates, Moni waved his hand and said casually, "No, it's not because of this."

Then, he ordered again: "I need to check the cannon on the ship now, you go and lift out the box where the shells are stored."

Hearing Moni's order, the two sailors nodded in unison and said, "No problem, captain!"

Seeing that his subordinates had already obeyed the orders and went to work, Moni walked into the cabin, and brought Shamanleer to a corner of the cabin.

He moved boxes stacked nearby to reveal what was hidden inside.

Samantel saw a large cannon.

It is completely black and even a little shiny. The overall shape seems to be the same as the fort that Shaman Lear saw in his previous life, but the barrel of the gun is thicker and longer.

Perhaps in order to get a wider range, the gun barrel part that Shamanleer sees now is three or four meters long, and a part has already protruded out of the cabin and protruded outward.

The lever Moni just pulled down probably controlled the muzzle.

In addition to its length, its caliber is also impressive, about as thick as Shaman Lear's head.

Although it is hidden in a pile of boxes, there is basically no dust on it, and it can be seen that it is often wiped and maintained.

"The method of using this thing is actually very simple." Mooney said, pointing to the cannon.

"Here is a reloading hole." Moni clicked twice on the rear of the cannon, and then quickly removed the back cover, showing the dark barrel inside to Chamanlell, and said : "Just load the shells into it, then lock it, ignite the fuse and shake the lever on the right side of the gun body to fire."

"The only problem is that you need to aim accurately!" Having said that, Moni pointed to the position above the muzzle.

Samantel noticed a small hole about the size of a fist opening in the cabin.

Because it needs to be waterproof and moisture-proof, it is not directly exposed, but covered with a layer of transparent glass.

"Come over and have a look." Money said.

"Yeah." Shamanlaer nodded, pushed the wheelchair to the window, and put his eyes on it to look around.

The first thing that catches the eye is not the scene inside the dock, but the gun barrel sticking out of the ship.

Shamanlear noticed that the position of the muzzle was just below the field of vision, and he could clearly see where it was aiming.

"Did you see the muzzle?" Money asked.

"I saw it."

"Very good." Moni nodded, and said, "This gun barrel can be swung up, down, left, and right. The joystick is on the base on the left. Try shaking it and aim the muzzle at the bow of the ship next door."

Next to them was a large fishing boat. Although it was half the size of the Moni, the target was quite big.

Hearing Moni's instructions, Shamanlear temporarily moved his eyes away from the window to shake the joystick on the cannon.

At this time, he discovered a problem, that is, the gun barrel was too long, and there was a distance from the window, so he couldn't control the direction of the cannon while aiming.

"Does this require two people to operate?" Shaman Lear asked.

"Hmm~" Monny nodded.

He has a crew of more than a hundred, and there is no problem at all with the two-person team firing the cannon.

However, Shaman Lair does not have any crew members, so it is more difficult for two people to cooperate.

It took him several minutes to move back and forth like this before aiming the muzzle at the bow of the fishing boat next door.

"Is it possible to shoot if you aim at it?" Shaman Lear asked.

"No, no, no!" Moni shook his head and said, "The shells don't fly in a straight line, you need to adjust according to the distance and wind speed."

"The farther away the target is, the higher the muzzle must be raised. It doesn't matter even if it is aimed at the sky, it will fall anyway. The closer it is, the closer it is to the target."

"In short, everything depends on personal experience." Money said with a smile.

Hearing the word experience, Samantel frowned.

Whether it's sailing a boat or firing a cannon, it seems that the principles are very simple, but they all require experience, and he has to learn from scratch.

"But you have a limited number of cannons, how can I accumulate experience in shooting cannons?" Shaman Lair thought of this question.

Whether it is a gunner or a gunner, they are all fed with countless ammunition.

"It doesn't matter, I will go to the island to buy a batch of gunpowder in a few days, and make some ordinary cannonballs, let you try the feel." Moni said with a smile.

"And I plan to teach you to sail the boat temporarily after the moon of tides has passed. When you can sail the boat to the sailing island smoothly, you will have almost mastered the boat sailing skills."

"If there is any pirate with no eyesight on the road, we will shoot him!"

"In short... before you leave, I will do my best to make you a qualified captain!"

　I'm still on the recommendation, but yesterday's favorite was lost... Since I said it will be put on the shelf, there are fewer voters, and you run away before I put it on the shelf?My heart is cold and cold.
