The weather is sunny and the wind direction is 3 and the situation is good.

After making a routine note in his diary, Balk looked up, straightened his hat, and strode out of the captain's room to the deck. Seeing his appearance, the soldiers who were working on the deck also immediately saluted him, and in front of his men, Balk only waved his hand, and then he made a gesture, and soon a mage officer in charge of the lookout came to him.

"Your Excellency."

"How's it going?"

"Everything is normal at the moment, nothing unusual has been found."

"yes............"

Hearing the officer's answer, Balk snorted, then he picked up the pipe in his hand and took a puff, then narrowed his eyes and looked again at the clear blue sky in front of him, and the large air fleet around him.

As the commander of the first elite fleet of the Magic Empire, Balk has a proud resume, he was born in one of the oldest mage families in the Magic Empire, and he himself has been in the army all the way, and after a lot of hard battles, he became the supreme commander of the first fleet of the Magic Empire, for Balk, his fleet is everything to him, he grew up here since he was a child, and then joined the army. Start with the lowest level of soldiers and work your way up to the position of commander. These experiences were enough for Balk to proudly raise his head and withstand all scrutiny. And the army he led was also the most powerful fleet in the Demon Empire. Including the flagship "Sovereign" that Balk was riding, there were also "Victory" and "Flying", these three capital warships plus ten Galen-class light warships are the pillars of the entire First Fleet, and they are also the most powerful and glorious glory of the entire Magic Empire.

Because of this, when Balk learned from the council that he was going to lead his air fleet to meet the guests, Balk was reluctant. In his opinion, this should be the responsibility of the royal guards who do not learn how to embroider pillows, and their duty is to hold the territory, not to learn monkey performance.

In the face of Balk's displeasure, the council had nothing to do, and in the end, it was Archmage Nicholas who secretly revealed to him that this time the guests were extraordinary, and if nothing else, they were here to threaten the Wizard Empire. The negotiations between the two sides were based on military strength, so the parliament finally asked the First Fleet to come out in person, and if it could deter them, then the parliament would be able to take the initiative in diplomatic negotiations to some extent.

And Archmage Nicholas also quietly revealed to Balk, according to intelligence, this time the other party also led a huge fleet to come, and the performance of those warships is very strong, if it is not for the first fleet to go out in person, I am afraid it will not be able to cover it.

As a soldier, Balk had no interest in political deceit, but when he heard that he was going to try it out, he couldn't help it. What the? The Magic Empire's fleet manufacturing skills are the best in the world, and now someone dares to argue with them under the nose of the Magic Empire? Can this be endured? I can't bear this on anyone!

So Balk finally took the order, and also carried out a large-scale renovation of the entire First Fleet's air warships, and at the same time required all the soldiers to show the best mental appearance, he wanted to see how evil the fleet led by the other party was, and dared to compete with his own air fleet.

"Is the dragon knight sent out back?"

"Report to the Commander, not yet."

"Cut ..............."

Hearing this answer, Balk pouted dissatisfiedly, this will already be a high pole, although according to the agreement, there should be more than ten minutes before the other party arrives, but Balk is just unhappy. He even had some malicious guesses, was the other party's fleet too slow, and it hadn't appeared for so long, maybe it wouldn't come until the afternoon?

Just as Balk was thinking darkly in his heart, the officer beside him interrupted his thoughts again.

"Lord Commander, the men we sent out are back."

"Oh?"

Hearing his subordinates' words, Balk withdrew his gaze and looked ahead again. Soon, he saw a black dot appear in the clear blue sky, and then slowly approached. Immediately after, a knight riding a wurm appeared in front of everyone. Seeing his appearance, someone immediately waved a flag to guide him to fly over. I saw that the dragon knight just staggered and rode the wurm and landed on the deck. Seeing this, Balk couldn't help frowning. Every dragon knight has been trained, they are the most elite warriors, and they should not be surprised even if they encounter anything, but right now, this dragon knight is so flustered, and even the landing is so unstable, which makes Balk quite unhappy.

Maybe we should consider transferring him to another fleet, such a person does not meet his requirements.

"Your Excellency, Commander! Commander-sama! ”

But the hapless knight didn't seem to know that he had been "laid off" in Balk's mind, and he hurried over, saluted with a pale face, and then spoke at once without waiting for Balkdo to say anything.

"Please give the order to disperse the fleet immediately, or it will be too late!"

"What's wrong? What happened? ”

Looking at the chattering appearance of his subordinates, Balk was also stunned.

"Spread out? Is it true that we have been attacked? Have you been attacked? ”

As he spoke, Balk also clenched the staff in his hand, and if the other party did not have the right intentions or even attacked, then he would immediately launch a signal. Fortunately, in order to show their strength, Balk's First Fleet is now preparing an offensive formation, and it does not need to make too many adjustments. Hearing Balk's words, the pale dragon knight also shook his head.

"No, no......... My lord, I haven't been attacked, right......... It's ................"

At this point, he paused and paused, as if he didn't know how to describe it.

"Yes, it's too big!! It's too big!! ”

"Too big? What's too big? ”

Hearing this, Balk became even more confused, but before he could continue to ask, suddenly, there was an exclamation from the entire deck. And then, the voices of his subordinates rang out again.

"Commander!! You, you see!! ”

What's wrong?

Hearing the screams of his men, Balk looked up at the sky in front of him, and then he saw a scene he would never forget.

I saw that above the sky in front of them, the heavy clouds were quietly and silently torn apart, and an incomparably huge, mountain-like behemoth was torn out of the clouds, and it slowly moved forward, the huge figure covering the sky and the sun, and even the sun was completely obscured. And the entire First Fleet is completely shrouded in its shadow!!

"This, what the hell is this ..............."

Balk stared at the metal fleet in front of him in amazement, not even noticing that his pipe had fallen from his hand. It's no wonder that these terrible behemoths have given Balk too much stimulation.

As the commander of the First Fleet of the Wizard Empire, Balk is also well-informed. In fact, in the Magic Empire, there are really a lot of things that can fly. But the problem is that these flying things will conform to people's long-standing beliefs. For example, the Floating City, to put it bluntly, is to dig up a piece of land, and then fly up with the castle on it, this is the Floating City. And the floating fortress is a similar design, and the floating battleship is of course the same, like Balk's "Sovereign" floating battleship, the appearance is actually no different from the ship in the sea, and even the manufacturing methods and materials are similar.

But for now, these ......... Is this called a battleship?

Looking at the huge iron shell, Balk felt that the common sense of his life had been subverted at this moment, there was no deck, no lookout, no mast, no sails, and he couldn't even see the power device that a magic guide battleship should have, the whole battleship looked like a huge triangle, and even the other "battleships" flying next to this behemoth looked more like rectangular iron shells——— where is this thing called a ship?

Looking at the battleship in front of him, Balk felt that his brain was completely insufficient. (To be continued.) )
