Chapter 445: Confrontation and Naval Battle
On the bow of the elven battleship and the demon warship, the signalman holds a flag and sends messages to each other through the flag, engaging in a meaningless tussle, while the warships of both sides make the appearance of wanting to fight, intimidating each other.
Green doesn't think the two sides will actually break out. After all, the Mona Kingdom and the Eastern United Kingdom have not officially declared war, both sides have various scruples, and there may be some friction in the navy below, but under normal circumstances, there should not really be a fight. The scene in front of me is like two gangsters facing each other on the street, although they both make a look of intimidating each other, but in fact, both sides are empty in their hearts. Therefore, when Green saw a golden light shooting out from the elven battleship, he couldn't help but show a look of "can't believe it" on his face.
It was a golden arrow with a thick bowl. I saw that the arrow directly crossed the space, grazed Green's body with terrifying precision, and smashed the three main masts of the battleship in a straight line, and then disappeared into the sky.
Green stood on the deck, glancing gloomily in the direction the arrow had disappeared. If Green hadn't dodged fast just now, I'm afraid he would have been shot in half by now.
The three demon warships sailed in a zigzag shape, so the elven battleship could only hit one battleship at most with one shot, but this cannon directly wiped out the flagship's mast and directly lost the ability to maneuver!
The flagship's speed slowed down instantly, while the elven battleship was still cruising in the distance.
On the elven battleship, a blonde elf in a blue navy uniform held a telescope and observed Green's location.
"There's a big fish!" The blonde elf had a somewhat wicked smile on his face, "You can get out of that situation...... Could it be one of the 'generals' of the demon race? ”
"Captain, what now?" The deputy captain looked calmly in the direction of the demon battleship, "Are you going to prepare for an artillery battle?" ”
"Nope! Sniper battles continued. The corners of the blonde elf's mouth turned up slightly, "We want those demons to learn what 'respect' is!" If we don't give them a little hardship, they will think we are easy to bully. ”
“…… Captain, it is necessary for me to remind you. You've used a dragon slaying arrow, and we only have one left. ”
"The Dragon Slayer Arrow is worth far more than a battleship, but we still have it on the ship, why do you think that?"
"In order to reduce our losses, and at the same time to target the legendary powerhouses that may appear."
"Dragon slaying arrows can indeed kill legendary powerhouses, but with just one or two dragon slaying arrows, you want to kill a legendary powerhouse? Are you an idiot when you are a legendary powerhouse? The blonde elf snorted coldly, "When the sword is in its scabbard, it is when it is the most deterrent. And the existence of the dragon slaying arrow is to deter the enemy and make the enemy throw a rat bogey! ”
"But captain, you've already shot the arrow."
"Shut up! You idiot! I'm here to remind them of how strong we are! This group of demons has forgotten the deterrent power of dragon slaying arrows, so we must teach them a lesson. ”
The deputy captain was silent for a moment: "Captain, if the two dragon slaying arrows fail to obtain valuable results, you may be sent to a court-martial. ”
The blonde elf snorted coldly, "It's just two dragon slaying arrows." If I don't get any valuable results, I'll let my family make up for it. Alright, don't stand here, get my orders across! Let the people below get the dragon slaying arrows ready! ”
The deputy captain was silent for a second: "Okay, you are the captain, you have the final say." ”
This style of Captain Nisezu obviously cannot be viewed with common sense. The deputy captain decisively obeyed the order and quickly conveyed the captain's order.
The dragon slayer ballista was placed in the stern of the elven warship, and the huge ballista was engraved with a large number of magic patterns. Next to the ballista, there are projectiles the size of a human head - these are the regular ammunition of the dragon-slaying ballista, and their range and power are no less than that of the magic cannon. But the dragon slaying ballista that fires ordinary projectiles is obviously sorry for its true value, and the dragon slaying ballista can only be called a real dragon slayer cannon when using dragon slaying arrows!
After hearing the order of the co-captain, the elves in charge of operating the dragon cannon took out a golden arrow about three meters long and the thickness of the bowl from a long magazine and placed it in the ballista.
It was an arrow that radiated a streamer all over its body, the arrow was made of pure gold, and it had the effects of [Demon Breaking], [Penetration], and [Legendary Special Attack], and the dragon's hard scales and powerful magical power were a joke in front of this arrow! Once activated, this arrow will ignore the interference of external forces such as gravity and wind direction, and move forward in a straight direction, with the elf's archery ability, the hit rate will reach a very terrifying level, even if it hits the ten rings dozens of kilometers away! The tail's [Acceleration] effect allows the Dragon Slayer Arrow to fly faster and have a longer range.
It's an arrow that exists to slay dragons, and it's also an arrow to kill those legendary powerhouses!
Of course, the legendary powerhouse is not stupid. Unless they are attacked or are too large, it is unlikely that the average legendary powerhouse will be shot by this thing. But the dragon slaying arrow is indeed one of the few weapons that ordinary people can threaten the legendary powerhouse.
The elves aimed the dragon slayer cannon in Green's direction again.
Looking at the direction of the elven battleship, Green felt a little puzzled: "Those elves ...... What do you want to do? ”
Now, there are still ten kilometers between the two sides, and at this distance, unless Green is blind, it is impossible to be shot by the dragon slayer cannon - the shot was not heavy when he was not on guard just now, and now that Green is prepared, let alone want to shoot. Therefore, the other party is definitely not coming for the "Demon King".
Could it be that their goal is only to take out these three warships, and I'm just by the way? But is it really worth it?
As an emerging power, the warships of the Mona Kingdom are all built according to the standard of "how fast and good the province is". Although expensive things are not necessarily good, but cheap things are definitely not of good quality, although the quality of demon warships is much better than that of ordinary civilian ships, but they are actually some bargains. In Green's view, the other party's current behavior is simply like blowing up a bicycle with a missile, unless there is a great man sitting on the bicycle, it will definitely be a loss.
The flagship on which Green was riding had to stop because the mast was destroyed. Sailors are making emergency repairs to the mast, but this is clearly not a job that can be completed in a short time.
On the flagship, the fleet commander ran up and came to Green's side: "Your Majesty, the situation is a little bad. The other side seems intent on eating us. ”
"One shot was fired from the opposite side and three masts were broken...... How did you get this boat? Green glanced at the captain.
"I didn't expect the other side to open fire." The expression on the face of the fleet commander was a little subtle, "In the past, they would not open fire unless they could take out two ships at once. ”
Hearing the captain's words, Green frowned slightly: "How to do it, you just look at it, don't worry about me." I just look at the results. ”
“…… Yes, I see. The fleet commander's expression was a little solemn.
Green stood on deck, continuing to watch the confrontation in front of him. After destroying the flagship's mast, the elven battleship did not rush up, but continued to circle in circles, as if looking for some opportunity. And the other two warships of the demon clan are slowing down due to the heavy damage of the flagship.
Beside Green, the fleet commander hesitated for a moment, then turned to his adjutant and said, "Send a flag and tell the two frigates not to let the head and tail face each other's battleships, and beware of the opponent's dragon-slaying ballista!" ”
"Yes!" The adjutant saluted and ran to inform the communications officer.
After receiving the order of the fleet commander, the two auxiliary ships immediately changed their direction and used their side sides to face the direction of the elven battleship. In this way, the two auxiliary ships did not have to worry about destroying all the masts by a single shot, but they also lost the possibility of getting close to the elven battleship.
Looking at the situation in front of him, the fleet commander standing beside Green seemed to come back to his senses: "These elves...... It's so shameless! ”
"What's wrong?" Green looked strangely at the fleet commander standing aside.
"These elves are threatening us!" The fleet commander's expression stiffened slightly, "They're telling us that even if they can only take out one ship at a time, they can attack!" ”
Green's eyes narrowed slightly: "And then?" What does that mean? ”
Fleet Commander: "If we don't want to be sunk, we can only go on the defensive and obediently abandon approaching." ”
Green raised an eyebrow: "What if we still try to get closer?" ”
"Then they will shoot one at a time, and turn us all into pallets on the sea, and then come over and harvest slowly." The fleet commander frowned slightly, turned his head to the adjutant on the side, and ordered, "Order the rest of the warships to move closer to us, form a three-sided defensive formation, and let them fight!" ”
The flagship has now been scrapped, and although the sailors are trying to make repairs to the mast, it is clearly not a job that can be done in a short time. At the same time, under the command of the fleet commander, the three warships formed a three-edged formation with the tail inward and the head outward. According to the captain, this formation can ensure that when entering the artillery battle, no matter which direction the enemy attacks, at least two warships can participate in the artillery battle.
The dragon slaying crossbow is indeed very strong, but the high price is destined to be used only in special situations, and is not suitable for use as a main battle weapon.
Seeing the demon warship shrinking into a ball, the captain of the elven battleship couldn't help frowning. Although the elven battleship is more advanced in all aspects, if it enters the artillery battle, it may not be able to take advantage of the firepower in the case of 1v2.
"Captain, what now?" The deputy captain calmly asked, "Is it a retreat or is it preparing for an artillery battle?" ”
Blonde Elf: "Retreat? The Windfury family doesn't have the word 'retreat' in their dictionary! ”
"Okay, Captain. Are we going to make a strategic shift? ”
The corners of the blonde elf's eyes twitched slightly: "No, let's prepare for an artillery battle." ”
"Okay, Captain." The deputy captain took a deep breath, picked up a sounding stone and yelled, "Notice! Notice! All hands are ready for the bombardment! And again, all hands into the artillery battle preparations! The magician is in place, ready to charge the magic cannon at any time; The Sea Knights assemble on deck and are ready to strike at any moment! ”
With the order of the deputy commander, the entire battleship was busy. The elven mages came to the side of the magic cannon, ready to launch a magic cannonball, and the sea knights stepped onto the deck, ready to attack.
The elven battleship began to approach the demon battleship.
On the demon battleship, the fleet commander watched the movements of the elf battleship and couldn't help but take a breath of cold air: "Are these elves crazy?" ”
"Huh~ What should I do now?" Green looked curiously at the fleet commander beside him, "Is the war finally going to officially begin?" ”
The fleet commander nodded, his face full of seriousness: "Yes, Your Majesty. We don't know where those elves got their confidence, but it's clear that they don't seem to want to let us go. I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I may not be able to accompany you. ”
"Please. Just when I don't exist. ”
