Chapter 28: Boat Tour
After putting things away.
Hamo came out with Alka.
Back on the deck again, Alka couldn't help asking, "Hamo, are you the only two people on the ship now?"
From the moment I boarded the ship to the moment I entered my room.
Apart from Hamo and Andrei, Alka saw no other person on the boat.
For such a large ship, just to start it might require a dozen to several dozen people.
If it is fully loaded, there will probably be more than 150 people?
But when I came up, I only saw two people. This was too strange.
"Of course there are more than just me and the captain. There are three more in the cabin below." Hamo said with a smile.
Looking at Hamo's expression, Alka was speechless.
Is this what I'm asking?
Even if we include the three people below, there are only five people. How can five people drive such a large ship?
Could it be possible that he could be fully automatic?
It seemed that Hamo really didn't understand what Alka said, and he took Alka down the cabin by himself.
"This floor is the ship's gun deck, where ammunition and other weapons are stored."
Alka observed the environment on this floor.
There were a total of ten rock-shaking cannons on both sides, but Alka had not done much research on this type of weapon.
Only the most superficial understanding.
But just from the appearance point of view.
Definitely better than Halls' baby.
These stone-shaking cannons have obvious differences in appearance alone.
It is wrapped in an unknown metal shell with very beautiful patterns and some reliefs engraved on it.
The base below is also wider and firmly fixed to the deck.
And Alka even saw a bullet entry port on the right side of the rear half of the barrel.
It is more convenient and simpler than Hall's method of stuffing shells into the muzzle.
Obviously a more advanced model.
At this time, Hammer also introduced: "The Shipbreaker-C type rock-shattering cannon is one level higher than the Type B cannon equipped by the Navy of the Blood Gold Alliance. It is a large-caliber No. 6 cannon."
Listening to Hamo's introduction, Alka didn't understand anything.
Neither he nor his original body had any understanding of these things, let alone a different set of standards.
At most, he now knows more about some guns and their ammunition.
Looking at these cannons, there are 10 in total.
Even if it is the minimum number of staff, there should be at least 20 people.
Not to mention the people transporting the artillery shells and various other personnel.
Even if you use your toes to think, you will know that there are definitely not enough people on this ship.
"The bow and stern of this deck are the ship's library and snow storage area, and the galley and dining area at the rear."
As he said this, he took Alka and walked forward, pushing open a big door.
I walked directly into a bright place with well-spaced windows that provided good lighting. Rows and rows of three-layer bookshelves were neatly stacked.
There are all kinds of books and materials on it, and each shelf is separated by a wooden bar.
Each bookshelf was secured to the ship's support posts.
There is also a reading desk and chairs nearby.
"Hey! Lipoca, don't sleep anymore, there's a new person here!"
Hamo tapped on the front desk next to the door and saw a woman wearing a white sailor suit and mid-length trousers lying on a hammock inside the semi-arc-shaped front desk.
However, the woman named Lipoka lay on the hammock, reached out to the ground, picked up a blanket, covered herself with it, and waved.
"Go away, Hamo. Don't bother me. I stayed up too late looking up information for the captain last night. Let me rest for a while."
Hamo had no choice but to shrug helplessly at Alka and took him out of the library.
As he walked, he said, "The one just now is also a junior member of the ship. She is responsible for managing the books and some information. She is usually there."
Then we came to the dining area at the back.
This place is completely open, and there is no door separating it from the gun deck.
It was simply separated by two curtains. When you pulled open the curtains and walked in, you would see several long dining tables and rows of stools and chairs.
You can also see that behind the dining area is the kitchen, which is an open-air kitchen.
A middle-aged man dressed in white chef's uniform is processing the ingredients.
Looking at the plump figure and protruding belly, it is very vivid.
It's obvious from this image that he's a good cook.
Hammer walked over with Alka.
"This is the ship's cook, Uncle Matt."
At this time, the middle-aged man also raised his head and showed a kinder face.
Seeing Alka smiling, he wiped his hands and walked out.
Hamo introduced him: "This is the new trainee member on board. The captain came to pick him up this time."
Matt nodded and held out his hand to shake Alka's.
"Hey young man, I'm Matt, Matt Reeb. Since we just got on board today, if there's anything you'd like to eat tonight, you can tell me."
Alka smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but I don't have any particular favorite cuisine that I can accept."
"Uncle Matt, let's talk later. I still need to take Alka to visit other places and get familiar with them."
Matt smiled, nodded, waved, and then walked back inside.
Hammer walked out with Alka.
"Uncle Matt is a very good cook. Even the captain can't tell him off when it comes to cooking."
As they spoke, the two of them came to the area leading to the lower deck.
"Further down, we have the rest cabins for the secondary members, as well as some strange workshops or storage rooms."
With that, the two of them walked down.
This place is divided into two areas, connected by corridors on both sides and an aisle in the middle.
"The area in the front is where we rest, and the area in the back is where the various manufacturing rooms and workshops are."
At this time, a ding-dong sound came from a room in the back area.
Hammer looked at Alka's expression of turning his head away and immediately explained: "That is a key member of the ship, old man Bobby, but I'd better not disturb him now, otherwise he will nag again."
"What about the other members?" Alka asked directly after hearing this.
"The rest of the crew? They are on a mission on Mest Island right now."
As he spoke, he continued walking forward and came to another entrance leading to the lower level.
"Further down is the cabin, where a lot of cargo and supplies are."
After saying that, he picked up an oil lamp from the entrance and walked down.
This area has been completely submerged in water, so there is no light source and it can only be illuminated by oil lamps.
After a rough tour, I became familiar with the layout and structure of the entire ship.
He took Alka and returned to the open deck.
