After a moment, Chen Zhou pushed open the door at the end of the corridor and stepped into the second-to-last room.
As soon as he entered, the smell of gunpowder and smoke greeted him. Surveying the furnishings in the room, Chen Zhou identified the owner of the room—a gunner.
As an important combat personnel on the ship, it was only natural for the gunner to have a spacious room.
Apart from the tables, chairs, cabinets, and bed found in every room, this one was also adorned with a deerskin carpet and bullhorn-shaped gunpowder barrels and long guns hanging on the wall.
There were two long guns, one with a shorter barrel and slender body, the other with a longer barrel and a wider, heavier body.
Next to the two long guns, a thick wooden rod taller than a person was propped against the wall, its top secured with a "U"-shaped bracket, resembling the kind used in clothing stores to retrieve clothes from high places.
