Chapter 299: Bronze Cannons and Bomb Cyclones!

Grunt... Grunt...

One of the advantages of elemental creatures is that their form is not limited, and the sea dog, which was originally cute and cute and no more than 20 meters long, has already woven itself into a huge fishing net of more than 100 meters under the water the moment it approached the "ironclad seahorse".

Suddenly close!

Bang –

Just as when a heavily armored knight was charging on a galloping war horse, he suddenly encountered a tripping horse, and the "ironclad seahorse", which was nearly 40 meters high above the sea surface, instantly leaned forward and smashed into the sea.

While blowing up a large splash, it also made the "ghost shrimp" who jointly launched the charge stand out alone, completely exposed to the muzzle of the simple "battle line".

The power of the "Siren Song" carried by the two warships was superimposed, and after the distance was close, there was no room for it to dive and dodge.

Exposed to the sea, the "ghost shrimp"'s natural ability to hide its tracks is also easily broken.

With the Seabird Messenger, the synchronization rate of the two battleships is amazing.

"Fire!"

Boom, boom, boom....

The fourth-class ships, all of which had 50 ship-based guns, of the same size, opened fire at the same time, and the orange-red cannon flames were in a row, reflecting the faces of the artillerymen and the entire sea.

On one side, there were 18 24-pounder guns, 20 12-pounder guns, 10 9-pounder guns, and 2 6-pounder cannons.

Fifty scorching iron cannonballs, turned into a rainstorm of iron and fire, covered the "ghost shrimp" with a total mass of 774 pounds in an instant.

This kind of firepower is not too far from the firepower of the second-class ship with 90 guns, 26 32-pounder guns, 26 18-pounder guns, 38 12-pounder guns, and a total mass of 878 pounds of firepower projected at the time of the experiment.

Moreover, in order to achieve concealment, the pure transparent carapace of the "ghost shrimp", which also has a shrimp chitin shell, is obviously not as defensive as the ironclad train-like "mantis shrimp".

After just one volley, even the hardest dorsal armor had cracked, and the five pairs of swimming limbs in the abdomen were cut in half, and the swimming speed immediately dropped significantly.

Although it looks slightly better than the "Sea Devil" without a carapace, it only takes one more salvo to take it away completely!

The gunners on the two battleships gave a loud command.

"Solid shells! Full cannon assembly shells!"

The use of velvet packs that can be completely burned greatly increases the rate of fire of the gun. With skillful artillery operation, even the heaviest 24-pounder guns on a fourth-class ship can achieve a rate of fire of three rounds per minute.

Before the "ghost shrimp" rushes over, it is perfectly possible to do another round.

However, even if the speed drops significantly, the "ghost shrimp" at this time has already arrived at a position less than 300 meters away from the two warships. At the same time as the next round of artillery fire came, he also raised his stout right chelicera.

Boom——!!!

Before the "ghost shrimp" itself was overwhelmed by the dense cannonballs, the huge chelica suddenly closed, and a high-speed current mixed with countless bubbles rushed towards the two battleships amid a thunderous roar on the sea.

The highest temperature of this blow even reached 5,000 °C, instantly heating the seawater into a majestic water vapor and turning it into a powerful shock wave.

You must know that even the surface of the sun is only 6000°C!

In the blink of an eye.

Boom!

The officers and men on the "Storm Horn" who were facing the rapids only felt a huge earthquake under their feet, and many of the crew members even turned into rolling hoists and fell to the ground.

"Report to the captain! Our waterline has been hit!"

The first mate quickly reported to Evan the damage to the battleship.

At this time, a half-human-high hole was punched by a bundle of shockwaves near the waterline of the "Storm Horn", and the raging sea water was rushing in.

Fortunately, when the "ghost shrimp" did not reach the best position due to the impact of artillery fire, it had to attack in advance.

The shock wave, which caused this extremely rapid decay rate, actually only had its aftermath left when it approached the battleship, and if it was hit within a hundred meters, it was entirely possible to lose even half of the ship's hull.

However, this kind of thing doesn't need to worry about Aven, a hole can't sink the ship for a while. There were already carpenters on board the ship who were hanging ropes and quickly slid down the side of the ship to plug the holes with spare timber.

Aiwen's eyes were fixed on the situation on the sea, and the thick mist from the shockwave in his vision was slowly dispersed by the sea breeze.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the "ghost shrimp" with its head shattered and floating on the surface of the sea with its carapace shattered and drifting unconsciously.

This also proves once again that the tactic of "Song of the Kraken" to create a flat battlefield and then bombardment of warships is indeed very effective.

And I, too, am really a god....

"Be careful!

Suddenly, there was a shout from Bertlem that pulled Evan back from his smugness.

Looking further away, the "Iron Armored Seahorse", which was obviously entangled by the water elemental fur seal Saipeis, had already waved countless thick tentacles to break free from the shackles of the water current.

Obviously, Cypeis, who is only a quarter of the opponent's size, is simply unable to compete with a large species like the "Iron Armored Seahorse" in terms of strength. Moreover, this water elemental creature obviously did not comprehend the true meaning of "overcoming rigidity with softness", and was easily broken through by a sea monster with brute strength!

"Bertram, you're such a!"

Scolding secretly, Evan quickly shouted:

"Gunslinger!"

"Yes, Your Excellency! Solid shells, full artillery assembly shells!"

The "Iron Armored Seahorse", which immediately entered the firing range, had the upper half of its normal body wrapped in 12 hard black bone rings, its neck was slender like a sea dragon, and its body was covered with cold hard bone spikes like thorns.

Moreover, at this time, the body surface of the "Iron Armored Seahorse" in the charge was shrouded in a thin layer of blue aura, and it obviously had some kind of extraordinary ability that they did not know yet.

This also aroused Aivan's alarm.

By analogy with the "ghost shrimp" just now, he had to think about the unique abilities hidden behind this "seahorse" from the perspective of a wizard.

The "seahorse" is a creature similar to the "owl" that has a unique place in the occult, the "owl" represents "wisdom", and it represents the divine power of the ancient sea god!

In many occult texts, it symbolizes the power and authority of the ancient sea god.

At the same time, seahorses also have keen perceptions and stubborn personalities, and even many scholars classify seahorses as a type of sea dragon, believing that it has a high degree of mystery in itself!

In fact, Ai Wen's guess was not wrong, in terms of sea combat power and extraordinary strength, this "ironclad seahorse" is definitely one of the best existences in this sea monster army.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been sent to town by Huggins!

"Milan, get the misty silver lamp ready, and if the situation is not good, use it as soon as possible, and don't forget to open a telepathic connection for Bertelem. ”

"Okay!"

However, the telekinetic did not prevent Evan from giving the order to fire as soon as the "Iron Armor Seahorse" entered the firing range!

Bang!Bang!Bang....

However, the sound of gold and iron made the crew change color.

The thick bony plate armor on the hippocampus is obviously much thicker and harder than the chitin shell of shrimps.

What's more, the waves at this time are getting higher and higher on the sea, which makes the hit rate at this distance, which is not high, very touching, not even 20%.

The effect of this round of salvo made Evan realize that this was an enemy that was far more difficult than the "Giant Hammer Mantis Shrimp" that demolished half of the fortress.

As for why not use the "powerful voodoo potion" to repeat the old trick?

Let's not talk about whether my potion reserves are not enough, the key is that this potion itself is soluble in water....

But.

A message sent by Solomon through the messenger lifted Aiwen's spirits, although the previous containment mission failed, but it was still very reliable at the critical moment, and hurriedly asked:

"Sea Treasure Catheret Bronze Cannon?That thing in the Navy Nova Treasure List was picked by you?!"

Woo——!

In response to Evan was a whirlwind sound as low as a whimper on the Royal Guard.

The crew felt as if winter had come in an instant.

A snow-white cold light shot out from the line of sight, although the speed was not fast, but it carried the majestic power that stirred the atmosphere, and flew towards the "ironclad seahorse" that had already charged within 900 meters.

This is the bomb cyclone inspired by the "Catheret Bronze Cannon"!

Normally, a "bomb cyclone" is an extreme natural phenomenon that refers to the rapid reduction of air pressure in a certain place in a short period of time, forming a low-pressure system.

Then, when the winds in the adjacent area converge in this area, they will rotate in the same direction as the planet, forming a high-speed cyclone, often accompanied by strong hurricanes, heavy precipitation and even heavy snowstorms!

Of course, although the "Catheret Bronze Cannon" claims to be able to influence celestial phenomena to create "bomb cyclones", its coverage is extremely limited compared to nature.

With a range of two kilometers, the three effects of Frost Blade, Hurricane, and Extreme Cold can only cover fifty meters.

However, the advantage is that it comes with a low-pressure core that rotates at high speed, so it can even attract small targets or directly to large targets!

Therefore, even if the accuracy is a little worse, as long as it can hit within 50 meters of it, there is no problem at all.

"Little meaning..."

Thereupon.

Ai Wen watched as the cold white light swept over the head of the charging "Iron Armored Seahorse", flew to the limit of the range of two kilometers, and exploded, freezing a large area of the sea into a lump of ice in the blink of an eye.

In the bitter cold wind.

Wow - wow——, fool - fool -

Evan only felt a flock of crows fly above his head, mocking himself mercilessly.

Turning his head stiffly to the "Royal Guard":

"Bertram, if I believe you are reliable, I'm a mallet!"
