Chapter 300: You Fell Before I Could Do It
"Those damn bastards!!"
Looking at the warship heading towards him, Captain Fawkes also knew that today's battle was inevitable, of course, if he could, of course he hoped that he would immediately anchor now, and then deal with the other party. Helplessly, the ship has not been repaired yet, and it can't go anywhere, so it can only be used as a live target for a fixed battery here.........
"Alright, everybody, lift my spirits, get on the battery! Get ready for battle! ”
Although this merchant ship was not as good as Van Riel's warship, it was also well-trained, and soon saw those sailors put down their work and quickly came to the turret, and controlled the magic turret to aim at the battleship in the distance.
"Fire!!"
"Bang bang bang!!"
With Captain Fawkes' order, I saw cannonballs suddenly shoot out of the barrels and fly towards Van Riel's frigate. But the cannonballs had just flown in front of the frigate, only to see a semicircular barrier suddenly unfold with the glow of magic, and the cannonballs that hit the barrier slid to the sides and fell into the sea with a thud.
"Hmph, so these poor ghosts are poor ghosts."
Looking at the scene in front of him, Ambassador Ruden also snorted coldly, and then he reached out and picked up a cigar and put it in his mouth. In his opinion, a frigate is simply easy to deal with a merchant ship, not to mention that in this world, all mainstream military warships have constant magic shields and various protections, and their shells are not ordinary. There are those that are specifically designed to break magical barriers, and there are those that are used to create flames and explosions. But such shells are generally controlled products, and it is impossible for them to circulate to those civilians. Not to mention these merchant ships, you know, it is illegal for merchant ships to possess munitions, and if they are caught, they will be imprisoned.
Because of this, ordinary merchant ships were able to hold ordinary cannonballs, but could not obtain those military controlled items. But with that level of attack, it is obviously impossible to break through the barrier of the frigate in front of you.
"Hahaha, just a bunch of civilians, and you still want to break our Van Riel warship? It's just a .........."
“———————!!”
Before Ludon could finish his words, suddenly, his eyes were suddenly enveloped by a bright red and dazzling torrent. A deafening roar whistled by, and for a moment Ludon couldn't even hear anything in his ears. He could only stand there in a daze, watching the torrent of energy in front of him crash against the energy barrier like a raging wave, and then spread out to both sides, and after a few moments, the dazzling red light completely disappeared.
"Hoo ..............."
Only then did Ludon reach out and wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, he only felt weak at the moment, you must know that the blow just now was so sudden that Luden didn't react at all. If it weren't for the protection of the energy barrier, I'm afraid I would have been doomed a long time ago!
"You, what are you doing! Fight back and take out that broken ship!! ”
"Cut, didn't you kill it?"
Putting down the umbrella in her hand, Tiria's face also showed a touch of unhappiness, she originally thought that relying on her own strength, she could easily sink the broken ship, but she didn't expect that the broken turtle shell of the ship was much harder than the ghost ship. I bombarded it with all my might, but it didn't work.
Do you want to use that......... Is it?
Thinking of this, Tilia couldn't help but look at the handle of her umbrella, where a small and exquisite rose pattern was exuding a faint glow.
But just as she was hesitating, suddenly, a voice came from the side.
"Leave it to me."
"Sister Nimfu?"
Hearing Nimfu's words, Tilia looked at the little angel beside her in surprise, after so many days of getting along, Tilia also knows Nimfu quite well, as Fangzheng's first summoned creature, her relationship with Fangzheng is naturally the best, and in addition, the little angel is also very talented in alchemy creation. But her combat effectiveness ......... To be honest, in Tilia's opinion, even if she is a newborn Red World disciple, her combat power is probably much stronger than her angel sister.
But now, she actually has to deal with a battleship?
"Are you okay? If there's anything dangerous........."
"No, it's fine."
Hearing Tilia's inquiry, Nimfu smiled and shook her head.
"In fact, it's over.
“……… Ay? ”
"Prepare to attack! Knock them to ashes!! ”
At this moment, Luden was in high spirits, he waved his hands vigorously, and at the same time gave a loud order. But what Luden didn't expect was that as soon as he finished his words, he heard a loud "bang", and then the next moment the boat under his feet suddenly slowed down.
"What's wrong? What happened? ”
"Report! The Magic Engine is malfunctioning! ”
"How is that possible?"
Hearing the report of his crew, the captain couldn't help but be stunned, this is Van Riel's latest warship, and the magic energy engine is also the product of the latest production equipment, how could it malfunction?
"What about the cause of the failure?"
"Yes......... The magic energy is instantly overloaded, causing part of the magic energy engine to be destroyed! ”
"Fix it now!"
"We're repairing it, but it's ............"
"How?"
"The damage is too serious, I'm afraid it won't be repaired for a while!"
"It's a real trouble........."
Hearing this, the captain also frowned, but he quickly made a decision.
"Hurry up and repair the engine immediately, the others are ready to operate the turret, the enemy is within range, lock on to the target and prepare to fire!"
Although it is said that the magic energy engine is destroyed, the battleships of the main world are originally dual-driven by sail magic energy, which is also an insurance after all. And now, even if there is no magic engine, the battleship with open sails can still continue to act, although there is no way to turn the direction as freely as the magic engine, but against a merchant ship, it is no problem for him.
"Target, ———! at two o'clock"
With the captain's order, several batteries were seen to turn at the same time, aiming at the Crow.
"Launch!!"
"Boom —————!!!"
Ludon didn't know what was going on at all, because just after he heard the captain say the word "launch", he only felt a deafening explosion, and then Luden fell to the ground in the dark, and when he opened his eyes again, everything in front of him made Luden startled.
I saw that the battleship should have been intact, but now it was full of smoke and fire, and the deck was in tatters, and only huge holes could be seen as far as the eye could see. The shrill sirens and shouts mingled so well that it was impossible to hear what was being said.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? What happened? ”
Holding on to the console next to him, Luden staggered to his feet and asked loudly. But at this moment, the captain not far away beside him didn't care about what Ludon was saying at all, he just grabbed the microphone next to him and shouted loudly.
"Put out the fire now! Fire suppression! Damn it, don't let the fire spread to the ammunition compartment! What the? Is the sea valve automatically opened? How could such a thing happen? Was it blown up in the previous explosion? Damn ........."
"What's wrong? Captain, what the hell is going on? ”
Seeing the captain's panicked look, Ambassador Ludon also hurriedly grabbed his shoulder and asked loudly, while the captain shook his head blankly.
"I don't know, I just know that at the moment when I fired just now, all the magic turrets were overloaded and exploded! Damn, what the hell is going on........."
"Captain, it's not good!"
However, at this time, suddenly, a crew member ran over in a panic with a blue face.
"There is an unknown high-energy reaction in the magic energy core!"
"What?"
Hearing this, Ludon hadn't reacted yet, but the captain's face instantly turned blue.
"Abandon the ship, everyone, ......... immediately"
"Boom !!"
The next moment, the flames that rose into the sky completely destroyed everything.
"Uh............... What's going on? ”
Tilia stood on the deck, staring blankly at the battleship in the distance, only to see that the battleship suddenly caught fire, then exploded instantly, and then was blown in two and then slowly sank into the sea. This also made Tilia inexplicably not know what to say......... How? Before I could make a move, the ship sank?
"Sister Nimfu? This is what you did? ”
"Hmm."
Hearing Tiria's inquiry, Nimfu, who lowered her right hand, smiled and nodded.
"Fortunately, the other party's magic utilization rate is relatively high, which just allowed me to find an opportunity to invade the magic circuit of that battleship, and now it seems that it is still very effective."
“…………………”
Tilia silently glanced at the glimmer of Nimfu's fingertips, then glanced at the wreckage of the battleship that had been swallowed up by the sea.
It seems that she is going to re-evaluate the combat effectiveness of her sister.
