CHAPTER XLII. The horror of dreadnought-class battleships
Then, in the midst of the cries, screams, and unwilling and helpless roars, the small country was completely destroyed overnight. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The conquest of a small country is not a big event in the western continent with many powers, but like the "Sword and Rose Empire", it is absolutely quite rare to directly dispatch a "Dreadnought-class" warship and hundreds of masters hidden in the shadows, just to deal with a small country.
And then, when more detailed news came, it undoubtedly made those who were secretly following the development of this matter a little incredulous.
That small country had a population of more than a million before the war, but after that dark night, the population of the whole country was less than 100,000.
In other words, at least 900,000 people died in that night, not livestock, but humans, more than 900,000 people! The remaining less than 100,000 people fled in hiding as soon as possible, which saved their lives. In the long way of escaping, how many of these 100,000 people will survive in the end is still unknown.
This astonishing news completely shook the entire Western world, and it is said that even the Holy See, which had been hidden in darkness, was greatly shaken by it.
Although in recent decades, the major empires and forces on the Western continent have restrained each other, which has led to a rare time of peace over the years, but war has never stopped on the Western continent, but there has never been a large-scale war, and small-scale battles have never stopped at all, but an act similar to the Sugerian Empire that is close to slaughtering a country is the first time in the history of the Western continent in the past hundred years.
All of a sudden, the rumors about the brutality and immorality of Benjamin VI, the contemporary king of the "Sword and Rose Empire", began to spread rapidly throughout the Western Continent, and the rumors that should have been ignored for a period of time have evolved more and more seriously under the impetus of some people with ulterior motives in the secret, and all of a sudden, the other three empires except the "Sword and Rose Empire" and dozens of small and medium-sized countries have been frantically circulating such news.
However, no matter how the outside world changes, the people in the "Sword and Rose Empire" are not affected at all, and as for the subordinate countries, they expressed their loyalty to Benjamin VI at the first time, after all, with the experience of that small country, the kings of these countries naturally have a great awe of Benjamin VI, and they naturally do not want their countries to follow in the footsteps of each other.
And when a group of people who secretly plotted to promote the image of Benjamin VI as a tyrannical king to the people of the "Empire of the Sword and the Rose" entered this powerful country, Benjamin VI once again showed his thunderous methods to the outside world, and after a quiet night, the next day, the heads of this group of twenty-seven people with special purposes were all hung on the city wall, and it is said that when people noticed this scene, blood was dripping down from time to time among the heads hanging on the city wall.
When something like this happened several times in a row, the group of people behind the scenes seemed to finally give up and no longer provoke the lion, and after that, such rumors slowly died away, until now, even if a boulder fell into it, it would not set off a wave......
"Open fire." As two cold characters spit out from Lin Hao's mouth, the four sailors behind him also forcibly suppressed the excitement in their hearts, and then stretched forward their trembling arms holding torches.
As soon as the torch touched the thick linen rope above the cannon, a "snort" sound was heard, accompanied by a foul black smoke, and a tiny flame appeared from the end of the rope, and then became brighter and brighter, and then led straight into the small hole.
The black muzzle became hotter and hotter, and the vibration in the medicine room became more and more intense, and then accompanied by a roar like thunder, it seemed that all the heat had been vented at this moment.
"Boom-" "Boom-" "Boom-" "Boom-"
Four loud voices in a row suddenly resounded in this sea area, and the fury like a thunder god descended on the world at this moment.
At this moment, a pitch-black iron ball was the first to fly out of the cannon's muzzle, and the gunpowder was constantly expanding under the squeeze of that small space, and then under the impetus of the huge force it erupted, the iron ball carried an unimaginable high speed, like a white horse passing through a gap, and then suddenly landed on the eight swarthy tentacles of the "Octopus Water Monster" that were constantly waving, and had a close contact with the latter.
It was like a stone falling into the water, and the next moment there were layers of spray, but when the black iron ball fell, it was not the layers of waves that were splashed, but countless red blood and countless stumps and broken bodies.
The black iron ball was like a sharp sword, instantly smashing everything in front of it, and with an amazing impact, it seemed to want to crush everything alive.
The dark tentacles that Lin Hao had never cut off with all his strength were as fragile as toys at this moment, and they were not vulnerable at all.
barely resisted the breath or so of the fiery iron ball, and the dark tentacles were torn apart.
After that, the iron ball continued to fly forward, and then landed on the "octopus monster" that seemed to be a little unknown.
In just an instant, there was an extra wound the size of a bowl in front of the "octopus monster", as if it had collapsed downward, and the flesh and blood kept wriggling in it, making the scalp cold.
Subjected to such a fierce attack, an indescribable cry suddenly came out from the mouthparts of the "Octopus Water Monster" similar to its mouthparts, although Lin Hao and the others standing on the deck could not understand the meaning of the other party, but the unbearable pain in it was too obvious.
However, for the "Octopus Monster", this nightmare is far from over, and it is only about to begin.
In the next second, a huge sound sounded again, and three iron balls spewed out from the black hole again.
Without giving the "Octopus Water Monster" the slightest chance to guard and dodge, three dark, thick and heavy iron balls instantly pierced the sky with that huge impact, and then added three bloodstained but extremely hideous wounds to the opponent's already scarred body.
