"Pailin ——!"

The channel sounded the roar of Hedong lion: "Is it dead!?

The man replied in a helpless tone that was so numb to the extreme: "Landing safely, the crew is being gathered, and the landing is being dealt with by the way, this seems to be a stronghold of slave traders." ”

The woman breathed a sigh of relief, but her tone became colder: "Who are you talking to?

The man hurriedly repeated: "Report to the command, the crew of the 10389 ship landed safely!"

The woman still had a businesslike tone: "The rescue team arrived within an hour, and if there is any accident, comrades should deal with it as soon as possible, don't affect the business!"

The man answered loudly, and then asked timidly, "That...... How's the battle going?"

A violent noise sounded, and after a while the woman responded: "Comrade Bailin, focus on your task!"

In the depths of the night sky, at an altitude of thousands of kilometers, several clusters of raging storms ranging from a few kilometers to dozens of kilometers in diameter were scattered and scattered, tearing the space here into a mess.

This is a forbidden area formed by a combination of dimensional gaps, magical turbulence, and the "laxative vents" of the main plane barrier. Whether it is the "magic cloud" observed according to the theory of magic particles, or the source magic field observed according to the theory of micromagic, it is in an extremely manic state here. Strength, attributes, shapes, and movement patterns are all changing rapidly, and even if it is a legendary-level ethereal, if you don't set a safety valve, the result of high-precision balancing calculations will also explode.

It is in the vicinity of such forbidden areas that mortal wars still break out.

Both sides' long-range detection technology failed in the vicinity of the restricted area and could not accurately attack from a safe distance, resulting in both sides treating the restricted area as a natural place of concealment. As long as the troops are gathered near the restricted area, a large-scale attack will gain great concealment and suddenness.

The exclusion zone thus becomes a strategic location, and whoever gains control of the exclusion zone gains a chip on the war map, and the enemy loses a chip.

Whether it's an Imperial warship equipped with an Elemental Furnace or a Red Alliance warship equipped with a Node Furnace, here you can fight the natural environment while fighting the enemy.

Because the mana field changes too drastically, the small mana furnace of the plane and the flying boat cannot be balanced, and the two sides can only rely on the floating ship to fight. Even floating ships cannot operate in large groups due to the harsh environment, so they can only be dispersed into small formations of several ships.

For the same reason, missiles and torpedoes are not easy to use, even if the shells fired by Thor's hammer, the trajectory is also pulled in a mess and irregular. The two sides could only engage in artillery combat at a speed of less than 100 kilometers per hour, approaching each other to a range of four or five kilometers.

"This damn forbidden area!"

In the command bridge of the 10396 ship of the Red Union Navy, the commander of the detachment, Lieutenant Colonel Hana got up from the floor and muttered: "When I was training at the Naval Academy, I didn't learn how to fight this kind of battle that only happens at sea, we are the navy!"

"Something seems wrong...... Forget it, the battle is important......"

She patted her helmet to confirm that the communication system was fine, and asked the captain next to her, "Can you still fight?"

She is the commander of the detachment, and there is no need to care about the specific damage like the captain, only whether the battleship can complete the mission.

The captain said in an affirmative tone, "Anne is fine, she can hold out for a while." The guns of the Imperial floaters are indeed powerful, but they are much worse than ours. ”

Hana asked again on the formation command channel: "What is the situation of the 271 and 274 ships?"

This is a bighorn whale formation, the three bighorn whales have been modified, the original round submarine-like hull has been replaced by an angular configuration, and the twin rotating turrets of the upper and lower parts of the hull are a little abrupt, obviously a work of emergency. The displacement has also increased from the original six or seven hundred tons to nearly a thousand tons, but it is still as small as a sampan compared to this terrifying forbidden area.

The other two bighorn whales sent reports that they were fine, and even if there were support ships below that specifically enhanced the red net, in such a manic turbulence of magical power, the ships could only maintain voice communication with each other. As the commander of the detachment, she could not know the status of each battleship or even each fighter of the detachment at a glance.

"Very good......

Hana left the sunken 389 ship and her husband Bailin behind, and looked through the porthole of the bridge, over the chaotic area of the wreckage of several Imperial warships, and firmly locked on the Imperial warship detachment that was slowly crossing the obstacle and rounding the side of the formation.

The calmness and tenacity of most men, the experience of leading a team of adventurers in her youth, and of course, the resolute style and resolute determination of the most important ones, made Hana's military journey much smoother than that of her husband.

Although her husband Bailin is also an excellent soldier, he often makes mistakes that violate basic common sense, so that he still stays at the rank of major captain, and she is already the commander of the "frigate detachment" composed of bighorn whales.

The current situation of husband and wife in the same detachment is not intentional on the part of the superiors, and the detachments are all temporarily organized, and this situation is inevitable. In the current fierce war situation, neither the superiors nor the parties concerned can take care of this aspect of the problem.

Hana's crisp and quiet voice sounded in the three battleships at the same time: "We lost 389 ships, it doesn't matter, the enemy also paid the price of four baron-class, now we are three against six, according to the exchange ratio, our advantage is still great!"

"Don't expect me to have any unexpected tactics, in this battlefield where the environment is more terrifying than the enemy, the competition is will and skill!"

"Let's spread the line of fire as much as possible, and continue to fight bravely according to the combat instincts we have trained and our previous experience!"

"Victory belongs to the Red Union!"

The crew chanted slogans such as "Crimson Shine on the Sky and Sea" in unison, and the battleship struggled to adjust its course, attitude, and speed in the face of the raging storm, the turret turned, and the muzzles pointed at the Imperial warship that had just crossed the wreckage to reveal its slender bow.

It was a Viscount-class floating ship, the flagship of enemy formations. It was completely different from the ship of the same class in the Battle of the Travelers in the Wilderness three or four years ago, it was a large ship with a length of nearly 200 meters and a total weight of more than 3,000 tons.

Compared with the fact that the technology tree climbed too fast so that the technical reserve line was stretched too long, the high-level and the corresponding technical leaders had obsessive-compulsive disorder and perfectionism, and Chilian, who failed to mass-produce large floating ships before the outbreak of the war, the strategic planning of the Dawning Empire seemed to be more forward-looking.

The Dawning Empire has learned its lessons after the Battle of the Traveler Wilderness, and the newly designed floatships of all classes are larger in size. Even the baron class has a volume of nearly two thousand tons. When the magic particle technology matures, replacing the battleship with a more advanced elemental furnace and installing a more powerful magic cannon is enough to adapt to the war of the new era, and the huge number also allows the fleet to quickly form combat effectiveness.

Red Union paid more attention to one step, and would rather modify the old model of horned whales to make bighorn whales, rather than rush to mass produce less than ideal warships, and did not have a significant upper hand at the beginning of the war. However, compared with a single ship, especially in this situation of "forbidden area warfare", the shortcomings of imperial warships are also obvious.

For example, the lack of high-level magic materials such as magic steel can only use enchantment technology on a large scale, resulting in fragile protection. At the same time, weapons based on reconstructed spells are not powerful enough, and although the magic cannon using elemental cannonballs is powerful, the hit rate is outrageously low under environmental interference.

The pile of wreckage is a clear example of this, the Red Alliance's naval guns have all been converted into Thor's hammers, although they are still affected by the magical turbulence of the forbidden area, but the cannonballs based on the basic rules are extremely fast and have little impact.

The main guns of the Imperial ships use a catapult spell, which can deflect the target up to 500 meters away when fired from a distance of five kilometers. Therefore, the tactics of the Imperial warships are to get closer to the Red Alliance warships, and it is better to stick them to the face and fire. In addition to this, the medium and long range can only rely more on various types of ray cannons and forbidden spell cannons with improved range and range.

This battle, which was four against ten in terms of the number of warships and less than the opponent's flagship in terms of tonnage, had lasted for nearly two hours. As the forward ship, the 10389 ship was unlucky, it was set fire by the opponent's main guns, suffered several large-yield element shells, dragged its seriously injured body away from the battlefield, but was affected by the storm during the maneuver and lost power and sank.

There is no gravity at an altitude of thousands of kilometers (although this is a fantasy world, but there is a gravity setting that is more scientific than all kinds of science fiction worlds that do not consider gravity at all), and the wreckage of the battleship that has been blown up squeezes each other, as long as it is not pulled into it by the storm, it will be suspended in the battlefield like this, cutting the battlefield into a more messy one, and most of the time of the battle is spent on maneuvering.

Patches of sparks bloom from the turret of the Red Alliance battleship, and because there is no air, there is no orange flame in the atmosphere, but only tiny particles peeling off the surface of the cannonballs to explode from the sparks (remember that this is a very scientific fantasy world). Trailing shells with only faint ripples in their wake, they fired at enemy ships at a speed that was completely untraceable to the naked eye.

There was a turbulence in the pile of wreckage, which was a missed shell. It's not a problem with Mjolnir that's still flying a few kilometers away, it's caused by the turbulence of magic in the forbidden area.

However, as with queuing to shoot, the more concentrated firepower you have, the more likely you will naturally have a good hit rate.

Several shells hit the target, only to see the bow of the Imperial battleship sink, and a dazzling light cluster lit up, which should have been induced by the elemental shells that should have opened the safe.

This is where the trouble with elemental shells and bombs comes in, and its explosion principle is that the annihilation reaction is produced by the extrusion of two types of purified elemental nucleocrystals. As long as the safety of the isolated nuclear crystal is opened, once the shell is violently impacted, it will explode.

The light was dim, the bow of the enemy ship was gone, and the whole battleship was raised high by the force of the explosion, and when viewed from the ground as a datum, it seemed to be doing a cobra maneuver.

The heavy damage to the flagship did not weaken the morale of the Imperial formation, and another Viscount-class battleship rushed out and went directly to the stern, pushing the flagship that was hindering the voyage away. The Baron-class battleships further behind stretched out downward, scrambling to accelerate, passing the flagship and the ships in front of them, and firing at the Red Alliance battleships.

Dense ray cannons rained down, and occasionally fluctuations of power that seemed to drive the heart to accelerate swept past the battleship, which was the most lethal elemental main cannon.

The Flame Forbidden Spell was mixed in, expanding a radius of 100 meters like a scarlet umbrella. If it is on the ground, such a forbidden spell is enough to destroy a city, but in the high altitude where there is no air, as long as it is not directly hit, it is also the effect of blinding people's eyes.

The artillery fire was quite fierce, and the morale of the enemy troops was high. The officers and men of the Red Alliance were sure that the mortals in the battleships on the opposite side were just like them, shouting slogans, determined to fight to the end, and would not take a step back.

"Concentrate your fire!"

"Hit the closest target!"

"Stay mobile, don't scatter!"

At this time, Hana can only play the role of a naming officer and a morale officer......

The ray cannon scorched the lattice armor of the Red Alliance battleship, the forbidden spell cannon shook the senses, and the elemental cannon tore and even melted the lattice armor and the magic steel plate together. The Magic Steel cannonball pierces through the enchanted armor plates, shattering the human body and churning the space, detonating the elemental cannonball that splits the hull in two.

In the midst of the frenzied storm, human flesh, steel and demonic objects, the fiery flames emitted by the soul fused together, violently colliding with each other, bursting into brilliant light, illuminating the dark blue and purple black sky.

It was the starry sky that people saw on the land of the main plane.
