Boarding the Ship

Chen Shayi first briefly introduced his own ship to Wang Dong.

　　This is a Fire destroyer with a comprehensive combat power assessment level of lv10. Like the Pond, it is a third-generation ship with a source point acquisition rate of only 25%.

　　Even a third-generation ship is a restricted commodity and cannot be purchased by non-privileged classes.

　　Chen Shayi was qualified to purchase a third-generation ship only after he was officially awarded the title of "Knight" by the Blackstone Baron.

　　It was also the Blackstone Baron who paid most of the purchase money for Chen Shayi.

　　Otherwise, at the price of a Fire warship, even if an ordinary person is qualified to purchase it, he would have to save up for several lifetimes.

　　Chen Shayi did not show Wang Dong the specific details, but only roughly introduced that this Fire warship focused on the ability of assault.

　　Wang Dong did not ask any more questions.

　　The specific enhancement of each Fire warship, as well as the quality and additional capabilities of the shipboard modules, are important confidential matters.

　　Once exposed, it is easy to be targeted by the opponent.

　　If it is not necessary, no captain will disclose the detailed information of the ship to others at will.

　　This is not only disrespectful to one's own safety, but also brings trouble to others.

　　In addition to the details of the flagship, Chen Shayi began to popularize many common senses about the Fire warship to Wang Dong along the way.

　　After all, in the eyes of others, Wang Dong is now a country bumpkin who has never been in contact with the Fire warship.

　　As a member of the nobility, understanding the Fire warship is one of the compulsory courses.

　　Chen Shayi is willing to say this to Wang Dong now, and he really has great goodwill towards Wang Dong.

　　Wang Dong naturally learns humbly.

　　So after a while, Wang Dong asked: "How much stronger is the combat power of the Fire warship than the assault ship?"

　　If you want to get a better understanding, you must ask more questions.

　　"Assault ships are basically not equipped with energy shields, so their defense is quite different from that of Fire warships. Even the initial Fire warships that have not been strengthened can crush the assault ships.

　　Even when facing low-level Fire warships, the number of assault ships must be one order of magnitude ahead of the Fire warships to have the possibility of fighting."

　　Chen Shayi answered without hesitation.

　　"How long will it take us to return to Black Stone Star?"

　　"The distance between Mineral Star and Black Stone Star is not far. At the normal sailing speed of our fleet, we can reach it in ten days."

　　Chen Shayi patiently introduced to Wang Dong, and also brought up a virtual screen with a star map of the nearby star field.

　　He interpreted them one by one for Wang Dong according to the star map.

　　"This is the Blackstone Barony, which has an administrative star system and two inhabited planets. It is adjacent to the Highland Barony, Red Leaf Barony and Shashu Barony.

　　Among them, although the Red Leaf Barony and Shashu Barony are adjacent to the Blackstone Barony, they are actually in contact with barren star systems that are not of much value. Therefore, there is no dispute on the border issue.

　　The Highland Viscountry is different. The mining star field is located right between the Blackstone Barony and the Highland Viscountry. The Highland Viscountry has always had ill intentions towards the interests of the mining star field."

　　Wang Dong understood that this was Chen Shayi interpreting the current situation of the Blackstone Barony for him,

　　and it was also a form of releasing goodwill.

"It is said that there is a group of star thieves near the mining star field..."

Wang Dong pondered.

　　The best way to respond to goodwill is to return goodwill.

　　Therefore, Wang Dong did not mind using the information obtained before his rebirth to pretend to have the ability of "seeing the big picture from the small details and drawing inferences from one example".

　　"Yes, there are quite a few star pirate groups in the star field between the Blackstone Barony and the Highland Viscountry. The main reason is that neither the Blackstone Barony nor the Highland Viscountry can fully control this star field.

　　Secondly, the background of some of the star pirate groups is questionable, and it is not ruled out that there is a suspicion of aristocrats behind the scenes."

　　Chen Shayi confirmed Wang Dong's guess.

　　"Did the Blackstone Barony take any countermeasures against this?"

　　"Of course there was. Whether it was the specially set up mining patrol fleet or the long-term stationed space fortress over the mining star, they were all responses made by the Blackstone Barony. The baron even regularly organizes forces to encircle and suppress the star pirate groups in this airspace.

　　Unfortunately, in recent years, due to the Baron's poor health and difficulty in long-term management, the Black Stone Barony has been forced to be on the defensive. The pirates in this area are also becoming more and more intense.

　　Although the pirates are not necessarily interested in minerals, they generally do not attack the mining area. But the news of the existence of pirates in the airspace of the Barony will undoubtedly reduce the prestige of the Barony and its reputation among the surrounding nobles. "

　　Chen Shayi said with some regret.

　　Obviously, he is a person who pays attention to the honor of the nobles and feels the same about the decline of the reputation of the territory.

　　"According to what you and Chief Ding said, the Black Stone Barony is currently facing both internal and external troubles. There are internal struggles caused by various parties competing for the heir, and there are peeping forces such as the Highland Viscount Territory. It seems that the situation is a bit bad. "

　　Wang Dong said thoughtfully.

　　"That's not the case."

　　Chen Shayi comforted.

　　"The overall situation in the Bauhinia Kingdom is still stable, and direct attacks between nobles are unlikely to occur.

　　The Highland Viscountcy can use various means to attack the Blackstone Barony, but as long as it does not invade the territory of the Baron on a large scale, there will be no fundamental loss.

　　I believe that after the Baron chooses a suitable successor, as long as it develops for a period of time, the Baron will be able to recover quickly with the income from the mining star field. "

　　Wang Dong could only shake his head in his heart at Chen Shayi's optimism.

　　The background of the Blackstone Barony as a noble directly under the king partially limits their way of thinking.

　　It is mainly because they are too superstitious about the authority of the kingdom.

　　In fact, the development of the situation in the next few years will let many people know how many cracks and contradictions are contained in this long-lasting kingdom.

　　The intensity of conflict between local nobles will quickly rise to an unexpected level.

　　The mining area star field to which the Blackstone Barony belongs, because of some subsequent leaked information, is like a piece of coveted fat meat, attracting many jackals and tigers, bringing a fatal blow to the already weak Blackstone Barony.

　　In addition, in the conversation last night, Ding Weichun and Chen Shayi both agreed that the competitors Wang Dong faced were mainly Wang Jujun and the two people selected by his family.

　　In fact, it is not the case.

　　Wang Dong clearly knows that the baroness who was unanimously disliked is also an object that needs to be vigilant.
