Chapter 650: Naval Battle
Under the glorious rising sun on the seashore, the warships belonging to the Lord of the Dawn reflected a golden luster, like a ship of gods descending from the sky.
In this era of rapid technological changes due to players' wanton changes, those believers who believe in the Lord of the Dawn have also made great progress.
Believers who were born with the favor of the sun made the sails of the sun out of expensive demonic cloth, and all the warships belonging to the Church of Dawn can rely on their magic to move forward in the sun's light, even in windless conditions.
It's just that such a wanton squandering of divine grace will cause the Sail of the Sun to gradually lose its magic, and this behavior is like burning gold coins.
However, in the sphere of influence of the Church, there are not only several religious domains, but also occupy countless resource sources, whether it is mines or population, it is not a problem.
As long as they feel it's worth it, this extravagant way of traveling is perfectly acceptable.
And the Holy Samurai Expeditionary Force is currently receiving the order to recover the God-given things at all costs.
A full eight battleships glowing with golden light, cleaving the wind and waves, broke through the blockade before Mama's interceptor fleet arrived, three days ahead of schedule, and appeared at the location of the god-given thing.
"My lord, discover the pirate's battleship!" The herald delivered the message to the head of the fleet in a loud voice: "Four battleships!" ”
"Sink them!" Dale Seaworth was equally hostile to the pirate groups in the Far South Seas, and even without the last attack, the Paladin, the Lord of the Dawn, would not tolerate the presence of these dross.
Despite the lack of artillery, the Church's warship firepower output is still at the level of ballistas and trebuchets, but they can use magic.
The ships that sailed on the seas were large enough that for the Church they were not just warships, they were also movable temples.
Whether it is the huge icon painted on the side of the ship or the exquisite statue on the bow of the ship, it is built according to the level of ordinary shrines, and there is a special prayer chapel and confession room in the cabin.
On the ship, the Priests can quickly regain their strength, and the Paladins can join forces to wield a wider range of Aura skills.
Each ballista has a dedicated priest in charge of blessing and unleashing various magic bonuses, increasing range, improving accuracy, adding light attribute damage, and more.
The paladins made cameo ballista shooters, and with their sharp gaze, they were able to accurately hit targets from a distance of 800 meters, and their physical strength was sufficient to support them to shoot this backward weapon at a rate of one shot per minute.
The massive bolt of light quickly takes shape in the sunlight, assuming that the giant bolt at the bow of the ship is a magical item in its own right, draining the full power of a Battle Priest with each launch.
The four warships of the pirates consist of a black ship, two old warships, and a new warship, and after upgrading, all long-range attack power has been upgraded to artillery.
It can even be said that the sea power mastered by Mama is the only fleet among the aborigines that has popularized artillery as a weapon, and it is also the most experienced fleet.
It will be a collision between the power of magic and the power of science.
"Mama, it's the fleet of the holy warriors, what should we do?" The other captains' questions quickly reached Mama's ears.
Through the binoculars, Cersei Lannister watched as the golden magical fleet sped towards the sunlight at an alarming speed, completely breaking Mama's previous plans.
But these accidents did not panic the pirate queen, and on the road to rise, Mama had encountered too many accidents, and she had long been used to it.
"Line up, grab the advantageous position, and give them a little bit of power!" Mama commands the large black ship Crimson Shroud, and as a special warship that is almost immune to magical damage, Mama has every reason to despise the other party.
It's just that she doesn't want to provoke the forces of the church for the time being, and the backstage is too hard.
The battle-hardened pirate captain didn't need Mama's personal command at all, but when he saw the movement of the black ship, he knew Mama's intentions, and relied on his more flexible tonnage to prepare for battle first.
The pirates who had been cruising the seas for many years, after being reequipped with new warships, also wanted to test their strength, and one cannon after another was pushed into the gun position by the crew, and the shells and gunpowder were placed in the reserved positions, gearing up.
The pirates in the harbor suffered from speed due to the wind, but they were convinced that they had a firepower advantage.
The paladins on the other side never thought that they would lose to a group of pirates.
Mama sat gracefully on the Iron Throne, looking at the magic warship getting closer and closer with some excitement, and her heart beat faster with excitement.
If it weren't for the glory of the family, this kind of life would be what she really yearns for, right?
Even Cersei herself couldn't guess this question, but it didn't affect the pirate queen to yell in a shrill voice: "Fire!" ”
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! The roar of artillery shattered the peace of the morning, and a large number of birds were awakened in the forest on the shore and fled the battlefield.
Because of the advantage in range, the pirates took the lead in launching a round of artillery bombardment, except for Mama's Crimson Shroud, only the new warship of the other three warships occupied the effective strike position, and launched an artillery attack with Mama in no particular order.
Nearly seventy shells pierced the air and smashed into the paladin expeditionary force's warship group with a whistling sound.
Thanks to the tight formation of the Paladin Expeditionary Force's warfleet, nearly ten shells hit their targets in the first round of test-firing attacks.
Decks were shattered, human bodies were torn apart, and ballistas that were unfortunately hit were scattered, and the paladins were somewhat shocked by the range and power of their weapons.
The shells that smashed into the sea splashed up a column of water that turned Commander Dale into a chicken.
Trained paladins quickly carried their wounded companions into the cabin, where the priests could quickly heal less serious injuries and stabilize the seriously wounded.
"Fight back! Counterattack! Dale's magically enhanced voice conveyed his orders directly to the captains of the ships: "Disperse the queue, don't attack that black ship!" ”
Paladin Dale had heard of Mama's plundering of a black ship before, and this time he finally saw it, the black giant ship was almost completely immune to ordinary magic damage, and he didn't know if those arrows of light could deal effective damage to the other party.
And the church must be interested in the technology on that boat, right?
The Paladins intend to deal with this living evil pirate once and for all, and on the way to find the gods, they encounter these evils, which must be the will of the great Lord of the Dawn!
Five arrows of light, more than two meters long, under the command of the paladin, gathered fire and fired at the pirates.
