In the "Tulip Alliance".

Although the Church of the Goddess is also hostile to the wizarding community.

However, the deliberate behavior and creation of the voyage will make them appear extraordinarily tolerant, such as the "Siren Song", "Shipbow Portrait", "Alchemy Bomb", etc., which are clearly created by witchcraft.

In the kingdom of Syrius, however, all kinds of witchcraft creations were strictly controlled.

Even military "alchemy bombs" and civilian "steam engines", which have become so common in other countries, are so rare that every witchcraft artifact in the possession of the military needs to be reported to the church.

Even the few "legendary warships" that Cyrius is currently using to suppress the sea, when they complete the overall transcendent transformation, they rely on the magic of the "eternal fire", not the witchcraft of alchemists or other wizarding schools.

Of course.

There is no doubt that the "Legendary Battleship" that has been "blessed" by the gods will definitely have a part of the property rights of the Church of God!

Although Philip II was the most noble king in the world so far discovered, and even the form of government was strictly totalitarian rule at home, as long as there was a church for a day, it was far from being able to do exactly what he wanted.

Merely.

There was no reason for even such a strict church to restrict the Kingdom's use of the naturally occurring "treasures of the sea," and even after the Great Voyage began, many churches claimed that they were God-given treasures for mankind.

【Secret Treasure of the Sea: Horn of Ocean Currents】

It's not as against the sky as it is to actually manipulate ocean currents, but it's just as effective.

Ability: Manipulate the direction of the current, freely control the strength (there is an upper limit).

It can speed up the ship and achieve the effect of accelerating against the water and braking against the water.

Acting on other ships can even cancel out the effect of the opponent's sails, causing them to go backwards.

At this time.

Under the combined effect of sluggish currents and the loss of sail speed, the "Cape Storm" was finally pulled into the broadside battle by the "Startenberg".

Before the first shot was fired by the Sylius soldiers.

flo——

Emerald green spell aura.

More than a dozen stout "giant vines" swelled and stretched rapidly from the bulwark of the "Storm Horn" like pythons, and rushed to the deck of the "Startenberg" from the bottom up.

Bang bang! bang bang....

The eight 9-pounder guns on one side of the main deck were directly violently overturned by them, and the tumbling barrels smashed on the deck, so that the soldiers who were already lined up next to the guns immediately turned on their backs.

"Be careful, it's witchcraft, get out of the way!"

This is, of course, Aven's masterpiece.

If they were allowed to take advantage of the superiority of the third class ship to fire at the "Cape Storm", it would only take a few grapeshot rounds to completely wipe out the ordinary soldiers on the entire deck.

Even if you can attack the third-class ship in the end, you will inevitably have to pay huge casualties!

Bang –

Evan then took out his "Golden Rose" and fired the first shot of the broadside battle.

However, it was not the crew of the "Startenburg" that hit, but the last cruiser that circled from the other side at the same time.

Although due to the interference of the "Endeavour", the fifth-class cruiser, which was supposed to be faster, entered the battlefield later than the third-class battleship.

At this time, the steering wheel was shattered, and it finally stopped.

Being dragged into the broadside battle that Cyrius is best at is already very disadvantageous to his side, and it will be really dangerous to be besieged by another warship at this time.

After all, from the ship's crew alone, 350 people against 680 people is already an absolute weakness, not to mention that he is still on the "siege" side.

"Next!"

Throw your golden rose to Milan next to you.

"Stay on our warship, and if the situation is not good, use 'trickery'. ”

Then Aven's sword and staff were unsheathed and he took the lead in the charge!

"Follow me. ”

By the time they found that a broadside battle was inevitable, the sailors on board had already assembled.

"Kill—"

"Kill!"

Gary, who was dressed in heavy armor, let out a loud shout, picked up his wheel and tomahawk and followed.

This kind of "siege warfare" at sea: don't expect the other side to give up the height advantage and run down to fight with you.

Although the Cylius Marine Corps claimed to be invincible, it did not mean that they had to fight hand-to-hand, as long as they kept firing from a high position, they could inflict great damage on the side of the Faltitis Navy.

Times have changed.

The main weapons of the Marine Corps have long been no longer limited to cold weapons such as swords.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang...

Because there were more than a dozen bridges formed by giant vines, which allowed the crew to rush directly from the "Storm Horn" to the third rank, the height difference between the bulwarks did not create a huge advantage for Syrius as he imagined.

After the long guns and short guns escorted a wave of lead bullets, in the rising cyan smoke, the two sides had collided together without any fancy fancy.

Qiang –

"Kill!"

Click!

Screams, shouts of killing, and the sound of broken limbs were all in one.

The naval battle has come to the most tragic and difficult link in an instant, and for the soldiers of the "Storm Horn", it has finally ushered in the most difficult battle after going to sea!

It is not for nothing that the side of Cyrius has the advantage of numbers, a fierce fighting style, and a skillful swordsmanship, and it is not for nothing that he is known as invincible in the broadside battle.

As soon as the battle began, it could be seen that the ordinary soldiers of the "Storm Horn" were obviously at a disadvantage compared to them.

But... Evan also has hole cards in his hand.

That's the sixty "Activated Hides" he made at a rate of two a day in this month's time!

Equip them first to the Marines with the strongest individual combat effectiveness, and get a powerful Sharp Knife unit with an average strength in the late stage of the apprenticeship.

Behind Gary, who wields a great axe.

A group of soldiers with "fish skins" of different colors wrapped around their waists shouted in unison:

"Roar!

The "fish skin" on their bodies immediately seemed to come to life, constantly extending and wrapping their whole bodies, and finally turned into a group of strong alien warriors with an average height of half a head taller than others.

The high bulging muscles, the skin covered with shield scales, the dorsal fin that is branched, and the fish's snout that fits perfectly into the back of the head, although they still retain the characteristics of many fishes, they will not be considered fish monsters this time.

From the appearance of the skin color, you can see the original owner of the fish skin.

Cyan, black, brown, dark blue, markings... There is everything, most of them are various sharks, and some are fierce tigerfish.

The closer you go, the closer it is to a human figure, it's much stronger than the "shark monster" that Baldwin had at the beginning.

Subsequently.

In the first real battle, this team has already used his full strength.

"Follow me!"

Under Gary's leadership, the "Fish Monster" warriors who boarded the "Startenburg" were like an indestructible drill, rushing left and right in the military formation of Syrius, easily beating their formation to pieces.

Immediately afterwards, they were divided and surrounded by the Faletis soldiers who followed the "fish monster" warriors, creating a situation of fighting more and fighting less.

After all, even in the army of Sylius, which has a very high proportion of probationary knights, it is unlikely that the proportion of probationary knights will reach one-tenth in the later stage.

So the "Fish Monster" team under the personal leadership of Gary achieved brilliant results in a short period of time, until...

Encounter a powerful transcendent on the side of Cyrius: Colonel Stanley, the captain of the ship who is a second-order senior knight!

In the chaos of the crowd.

Hiss –

Stanley crept closer, swift sword in his hand like a dark viper, swooping up from the most incredible angles, piercing the tiny gap between Gary's helmet and breastplate for the sake of his movements.

Although there was also a special protective design, and a layer of chain mail made of steel rings on the inside, Stanley believed that his swordsmanship was enough to stab him through the neck with a single sword.

At this time, Gary was unaware.

Seeing that blood was about to be splattered on the spot.

Boom!

A black shadow whizzed and slammed into Stanley.

But at the critical moment, Ai Wen, who was watching the six roads, picked up a Sylius soldier beside him and threw it out like a cannonball.

Although such a large "hidden weapon" failed to hurt Stanley, it also interrupted his inevitable sneak attack.

"Gary, hold your foot, don't rush too fast!"

After that, Evan couldn't give him much support.

Because the strongest man on the ship, the commander of the army, and the commander of the fleet, Colonel Reynolds Ban, had already found him.

In the war in which the transcendent participates, in fact, the masters of both sides will not rely on the induction between the strong to distinguish the opponent, because there is a more intuitive way, and that is... The military uniform on the other side.

Especially among the officers of the martial arts faction, the military rank, position and strength are directly linked, a low rank is not necessarily a weak person, but a high military rank must be a strong one!

Moreover, in the previous battle, it was only two or three hundred meters away, which was enough for Reynolds Ban to see who was making waves on the "Storm Horn".

"Drink, give me death!"

Qiang –

Bell!

The figures of the two blurred at the same time.

The swift sword in his hand turned into cold light, and he fought several times like lightning, and the military boots trampled on the tough and thick deck of the third-class ship, and only the sound almost thought that it was the charge of two war elephants weighing several tons.

Knock! Knock!

Even the sturdy hulls of the third class ships were making a terrifying creaking.

Wherever the two passed, the soldiers on both sides in the melee dodged one after another, and no one dared to stand in the battle circle of the two peak knights.

If you are not careful, you will be twisted into pieces of meat by the fierce sword wind.

The basic data alone is already five times that of a normal person, and with the swordsmanship skills and physical liberation, the two sides are almost no longer the same species.

After a slight temptation.

Whoosh!

To avoid injuring their own soldiers, the two commanders leaped between the rigging and the boom.

Between lightning-fast tossing and turning, sparks flew everywhere.

After a few breaths.

They had already jumped onto the tall mast of the third-class ship, one standing on the left side of the pole sail truss of the mainmast, and the other on the right side, facing each other at an altitude of nearly 60 meters.

Whew-

The biting sea breeze blows in winter, but his feet do not move, and his straight posture sways gently with the shaking amplitude of the mast.

Both sides are masters of eyesight, and they know very well that this is a direct reflection of the fact that their body balance has reached a certain height, and both sides are inclined to be agile.

It's unrealistic to think that the other person will fall on their own.

Besides, for their current physical fitness, even if they fall, they will definitely not be able to fall to death.

Standing at the top of the mast, Reynolds Ban was visibly surprised by Aven's swordsmanship.

His gaze lingered on Evan's excessively young face for a moment before moving to the swift sword in his hand that seemed to have only a thin glimmer of snow.

"You... With swift swords too?"
