On the eastern shore of the Black Sea, on the shipping route connecting the Old Continent with the Southern Continent.

Woo woo...

The bitter cold wind carried a faint frost flower, and the blue-white leather sail surface was bulging. The huge sail with excellent wind eating performance is carved with a mysterious silver rune spell, and there is a faint flicker of sorcery on it.

Powered by cutting-edge alchemy, the Northland Chillwind, a quasi-legendary warship belonging to the Kingdom of Pharytis, sped along the vast expanse of the sea as if it were completely weightless.

Less than a kilometer in front of its flank, a warship of comparable size was also speeding across the sea.

However, the appearance resembles a brilliant burning red maple leaf, and the highly recognizable features make people recognize at a glance that this is a quasi-legendary warship belonging to Cylius: the "Red Maple".

Obviously, this is a confrontation of extraordinary power at the highest level between the opposing forces.

"Griffiths, if you dare to snipe Tulips' sea route in person, why don't you dare to fight us with real guns?

The dignified Vice Admiral of Cyrius can't be a shrunken turtle who bullies the weak and fears the hard, right? ha..."

Vice Admiral Temple Elvis, commander of the Faletis Navy in the Southern Continent, wields a command knife encrusted with sapphires. The loud sound of a brass bell echoed across the sea, making it easy for both sides to hear.

At present, the war conventions between the nations only prohibit the slaughter of ordinary soldiers by high-ranking transcendents, but they do not restrict their involvement. Unless the enemy has an equal amount of extraordinary strength to cancel each other out, it is possible to kill all the soldiers who dare to resist.

To paraphrase "How can power be such an inconvenient thing?"

Some time ago, Griffitz and his "Red Maple" personally cut off the sea route of the tulips regardless of tacit understanding, as long as the sailing ships that appeared in front of him, whether merchant ships or warships, could not escape at all.

In just a few days, the alliance has suffered huge losses, but because of the sparse concentration of forces in the colonies of Hirius in the southern continent, it is difficult to take reciprocal countermeasures.

On the "Red Maple" ahead.

"Your Excellency..."

A white-gloved hand stood up to stop the adjutant's words.

Griffitz, who was also standing on the stern of the ship, did not want to engage in these battles of will, knowing full well that his goal was only to lead the expeditionary fleet to victory, and the means did not matter at all.

Although the speed of the opponent's "Northland Cold Wind" is fast, it is still a step behind the "Red Maple", and the distance will naturally open up after running for a while.

Moreover, it is not as simple as having a meal for two quasi-legendary warships that are evenly matched, and if you are not careful, you may lose both sides and greatly delay your own strategic advance.

But looking at the ugly faces of the officers and soldiers on the ship, they had been chased and scolded all the way, and Sylius, who was known as the world's strongest army, had not suffered much of this humiliation.

Morale is also something he has to consider as a captain.

Coupled with the fact that this southern continent, which has extremely high temperatures all year round and almost no ice age, is the home of his "Red Maple", Griffitz finally decided to teach the Pharytis people who don't know the height of the sky and the thickness of the earth a cruel lesson.

"If you want to fight, then fight!"

The two quasi-legendary ships with extraordinary power do not need to compete for the wind like ordinary warships at all, and the maneuverability and flexibility are completely two levels compared to them.

After the commander gave the order, the battleship was already in combat condition.

However, when the "Red Maple" running in front slowed down to meet the enemy, the attack of the "Northland Cold Wind" behind had already taken the lead.

Vice Admiral Elvis raised the command knife in his hand high, and the transparent sapphire on it was shining, and more than a dozen blue-and-white sails on the three masts of the battleship on the forward, main, and rear masts emitted a witchcraft aura visible to the naked eye.

Woo woo...

Like the whimper of the cold wind from the eternal white land, an illusory whale larger than a battleship emerged from the sail of the ship with a bitter blizzard, and took a deep breath and inflated like a balloon.

Then he suddenly opened his dark blue mouth and spit out a mouthful of the coldest cold wind in nature on this planet, which was a terrifying cold wave that reached -93.2°C and even the air seemed to be frozen!

To drag this sea into the cold winter.

【Ability: Winter Wind】

The sails of the Northland Chillwind come from a giant sea monster called "Pilot Whale" that lives in the waters around the "Eternal White Land", and the carefully treated skin of the sea monster is an excellent sail material.

There are also wizards of the "Alchemy Instruments and Enchantment Branch" who have drawn runes for it, and have extremely strong wind-eating and extraordinary abilities. Moreover? Seal the soul of that giant species on the sails of the ship? Gave it a portable sea monster pet in disguise.

It has multiple abilities such as [Never Trek], [Whale Spirit Escort], [Winter Wind] and so on.

And unlike the "Red Maple", which relies on the blessing of angels, there is a time and season limit, as an alchemical creation, as long as it provides sufficient energy? This warship is fully capable of all-weather operations.

"Innocent!"

Griffiths on the "Red Maple" sneered? The capabilities of the legendary and quasi-legendary warships of each country are the first priority intelligence.

If it is said that the kingdom of the material world has the most experience in warfare, it must be the army-oriented Cyrius.

Since the rise began two hundred years ago? There is hardly a day that is not spent in war, and of course the importance of intelligence is best recognized.

In his right hand, he held a torch with a bronze handle aloft.

Raging...

Like a blazing sun coming down suddenly? A blazing yellow-white line of fire splits the cold wind? The sails that flew towards the Northland Chill Wind.

【Secret Treasure of the Sea: Dragon's Breath Torch】

Effects: Outside of winter, it can be used three times a day, releasing a scorching flame with a range of up to 200 meters, within which even seawater can burn through.

......

Hirius's base camp in Luanda on the southern continent.

The adjutant stormed into the office of the deputy commander? Without waiting to stand firm, his face was already full of excitement and reported to the deputy commander of the expeditionary fleet, the steel knight Kungang Teta:

"Report to the Commander! Here's your chance.

Lieutenant General Griffitz has already engaged the Northland Chillwind? Two quasi-legendary ships that are evenly matched and restrained each other are fighting, and there should be no energy to take care of our side in the short term. ”

Kungang Teta, who was dressed in heavy armor even in his office, had a twinkle in his eyes and turned to lift his two-handed heavy sword on the weapon rack.

"The timing was just right, and the impatient Lieutenant General Elvis of Phaletis did us a great favor.

Let's go, take this opportunity to take the cargo ship ready and we'll set off at once!"

A scarlet cloak behind you? Walked out first.

This is Kungang Teta's second mission after coming to the Southern Continent this time after ensuring victory in the war? There is no room for error.

The most important thing is to hide from the eyes and ears of the ecclesiastical Griffitz, and fulfill the important mission given by His Majesty the King himself as a loyal royal party!

......

After the Maywind joined the battlefield? Easily slaughtered all the warriors of the Kingdom of Dahomey on those two ships.

Evan and his classmate Kelson Augustine, who seemed to have a very complicated mood, routinely talked about the friendship of classmates? It is known that he is currently stationed in the kingdom's Nigerian colony.

Is the overseas garrison a shortcut to promotion? And unlike the new continent that has not been developed for a long time, and the danger is greater? The Southern Continent, which has been in operation for two hundred years, is much less dangerous.

This is also a piece of good intentions of his deputy commander grandfather, but the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes, just in time for the war of Syrius, and it almost cooled down.

However, after all, there is a "friendship" between classmates, and the two often contact in the New World after making an appointment.

The Maywind then took away the most valuable trophies from the indigenous ships, and the Ivy returned to Nigeria with two warships, informing the top brass that Dahomey had entered the war.

The battleship continued to advance, came to the west of the Luanda headland, and went around the edge of a relatively secluded island to hide and wait.

With the Seagull Network there, even if you are a little farther away, you won't miss the target.

In the captain's room, there were only two people, Evan and Olivia.

The girl lifted her disguise, her graceful figure propped up the graceful arc of the military uniform, her long black hair like a waterfall draped over her shoulders, and a strand of black hair hanging down from her white jade-like cheeks, and she was seriously maintaining the alchemy musket.

The barrel is slightly dull in silver, the wood is delicate and burgundy butt, and a vine with golden roses runs through the entire barrel. After wiping it clean and applying the gun's oil, the whole musket shines brightly.

It's like a work of art!

Well, both, Aivan, who was sitting behind his desk, nodded silently in his heart.

Finding that Evan had been staring at her, Olivia thought he was looking at a musket, and hugged the well-maintained golden rose into her arms, and never let go like a chicken:

"Aven, lend me it, you won't need it easily anyway. And you haven't maintained this musket since you got it, have you? Listen, the golden rose is crying!"

Staring at the girl with slanted eyes, he clearly revealed the meaning of "You look at me like a fool?", and pretended to be dissatisfied:

"Under the protection of alchemy, the wear resistance of the alchemy musket is notoriously strong, and you simply want to embezzle the treasure of General Ben!"

As soon as the words fell.

Whoosh –

Evan suddenly raised his hand to catch a shiny object that Olivia had thrown at him.

When I opened my palm, I saw that the silver ring was inlaid with a blue-black tourmaline, the shape was simple and atmospheric, and it turned out to be a gemstone ring!

"What is this, for me?"

Because of the special significance of the ring, Evan couldn't help but feel a little crooked.

"A great thing for you. ”

Olivia didn't mean anything else, and then explained to him in detail what the gem was for.

Tourmaline (tourmaline) is classified by color into black tourmaline and colored tourmaline.

For a "gem-school" wizard, colored tourmaline was used to camouflage witchcraft, while black tourmaline, which contains mainly iron, could be used to manipulate electricity.

Aven silently felt the active spirituality in the ring that had been stimulated by the "gem witchcraft", regardless of its improvement in his own electrical control, this would be an extremely powerful external power supply in terms of its transcendent nature.

It is extremely practical for a branded swordsman who is based on the "magnetic field of life".

"But how does this gem look so familiar? This is actually the jewel button that you picked up with the 'Fairy Spring', right?"

Olivia's chin was slightly raised like white jade, and of course it was her own to pick up the leak, and the seller's market did not accept bargaining, and snorted lightly.

"In a word, do you want to change it?"

"Change! But it's not this ring.

As a consumable product, you will have to be responsible for helping me replace it in the future. Rest assured, the materials and craftsmanship cost me out!"

The girl thought about it for a while, but didn't find the deep meaning of Aiwen's "after-sales service" request, and felt that it was not a trouble to stimulate the spirituality of gemstones, so she nodded and agreed:

"Deal!"

At this time.

From the direction of the Luanda headland, a three-class ship without any flags, three large transport ships appeared in the seagull's psychic network.

Their long-awaited prey has finally appeared!
