Whew-

The "Storm Horn" sails full, like a sharp blade splitting the vast waves.

"Did you two notice something wrong with the Shark?"

Ai Wen stood on the stern of the "Stormhorn" with the command knife at his waist, and behind him the captain [Thunderbird Robe] hunted in the sea breeze.

Directly in front of them, Cyrius's quasi-legendary battleship "Long-snouted Shark" galloped towards the south like a mad dog off the leash, and if it weren't for the speed that is also the strength of the "Storm Horn", it might have been thrown off by this time.

Standing behind Aven, both Milan and Olivia, as wizards, put a part of their minds into the seagull, and even ventured to get close and repeatedly observe the situation on the ship.

After paying the price of losing two, there is still nothing.

Whether it's the people, their conversations, or the huge fish shadow looming in the water... It's the same as before.

"Something is really wrong, the people and the ship have not changed, but the fighting style has changed drastically.

Although he was chasing and escaping before, Captain Marz Harry was obviously very slippery, and now he doesn't know if he took the wrong medicine, he didn't harass or attack, and he seemed to have a very purposeful way all the way south.

Perhaps, as long as they are allowed to run a few more days further and make sure that the 'Grenade' does not return to the 'Gulf of Benin' before our large fleet converges, we can withdraw directly. ”

Milan scratched her head and put away the crystal ball in her hand.

Olivia next to her also spread her hands, and she didn't even find a "prophet", and she had no choice. Even before firing two more cannons to test with an electromagnetic cannon, the other party had no other reaction except to block it with a [blister ring].

Aven's brow never let go.

Although it seems that there is nothing unusual on the surface, there must be some kind of conspiracy behind their strange behavior of gathering together and quickly separating, this is certain.

For a moment, he couldn't figure it out, and Evan felt like he was stuck in his throat.

Thereupon.

Taking out candles, essential oils, crystals, and tern feathers, he built a ritual on the deck, dragging the captains of the other two quasi-legendary warships into the psychic web. It only needs to serve three people, and the ritual attrition is not too great.

"Your Excellency, Commander, General Sirik, how is the situation over there? It's been almost three full days, have you found anything?"

He quickly got a response from both sides.

"Although the 'Flamingo' on my side has been avoiding the battle, there is no anomaly on the opponent's battleship.

But have you noticed that His Excellency the Commander and I have been heading north, but General Galliot has been heading south? ”

After replying that there was no anomaly, Rear Admiral Sirik of the "Five-Mast Peak" came up with an anomaly that was not an anomaly. Because as long as you don't go deep into the open sea, you have to go north or south, two in the north and one in the south, which is not a special case.

"The 'Red Maple' on my side is the same, running fast, but not fighting.

If it's all the way south, Marz may be picking a battlefield in his favor, General Galiot, you have to be careful. ”

In the end, even if the commander, Lieutenant General Temple Elvis, is old-fashioned, he can only think of this possibility in the absence of more intelligence to back it up.

In the case that the strength is close to the inability to win quickly, the use of external forces is of course one of the most effective methods.

"Okay, I'll be careful. ”

Seeing that the other two parties also found nothing, Ai Wen could only agree and quit the psychic network. But instead of subsiding, the inexplicable feeling in my heart became stronger.

Then.

An incident reported to him by Milan, who was the navigator, aroused his alarm.

"Aven, we're about to approach Cape Acharest, the southernmost tip of the Southern Continent. Do we continue to catch up, or do we just stay here and cut off their retreat?

Although winter is still more than half a month away, the front of the big wave should have begun to brew.

If you continue south beyond Cape Agulhas and go to an area that is already unknown to humans, it is possible to encounter any terrible celestial phenomenon. ”

The southernmost point of the southern continent is Cape Agulhas, also known as the "Needle Angle" because the magnetic north pole in this area coincides with the direction of the geographic north pole.

The specialties here are winter storms and big waves.

Because the 40-degree storm belt blowing from west to east is in the same direction as the cold icy land around the polar current, they compete with the warm Agulhas Current in the Cape Agulhas area.

These competing currents have different densities and opposite directions, resulting in very dangerous giant waves.

Coupled with the relatively shallow waters south of Cape Agulhas, the continental shelf extends 250 kilometers south from Cape Agulhas before falling abruptly into the abyssal plains, which also makes the wind currents more powerful.

It has been observed that the waves can even reach a height of 30 meters at one point, so you can imagine what kind of despair it would be when you enter this sea area by boat, when the endless "broken waves" rush over?

Even an invincible battleship of the first rank could not have survived the inopportune season.

Although there is still more than half a month before the winter of November, there is no need to worry about the kind of huge waves that can destroy everything for the time being, but it is enough to arouse Aivan's vigilance.

Even if you have the "Iron Cross" given by the goddess in your hand, you will be immune to the damage of the sea. But after many trials, he was already sure.

The "Iron Cross" is still mainly effective for individuals, and the effect on ships is minimal, and it is pure wishful thinking to save one's life under the severed waves.

Therefore, when the naked eye can already see the seemingly calm but murderous waters, I think of what the commander said just now that they are looking for the battlefield.

Ai Wen immediately ordered:

"Lower the sail and slow down, we won't chase. ”

......

At this time, on the battleship in front of them.

Facing the sea breeze, the pinnacle knight Griffitz stood on the foredeck of the battleship, and his appearance actually did not change, but in the perception of outsiders, the captain of the "Long-snouted Shark", Marz Harry, looked like this.

The gray-haired priest who no longer looked young stood beside him, and the two of them were chatting with a relaxed expression, without the slightest suspicion and tension like Evan and the others.

"Imam Webster, do you know who was the first to discover Cape Agulhas, the southernmost point of the Southern Continent?

If it weren't for the luck of the Tulip people, how could Treasure Tree Bay and the Rand Gold Mine fall into their hands?

And the imminent victory in this war also means that this situation will be completely reversed.

Until a new continent is discovered, we'll take back little by little the riches of the known continents that rightfully belong to us, and... Dedication to God!"

As well as being a knight of the Church, he was also a typical military radical who pursued the idea that everything belonged to the kingdom. It has long been proposed to strictly block the shipping routes with a strong military force and monopolize the interests of the colonies.

In his view, this war was not only to divert domestic contradictions, but also the beginning of his own ideals and ambitions.

"Your devotion to God is a shame for even God's servants, but I need to warn you that the other party is clearly not prepared to venture into those dangerous waters and has begun to slow down. ”

The Grand Knight smiled indifferently, as if everything was under his control:

"It's almost time, so let's use this iconic place in the maritime history of the Southern Continent to mourn them.

All surprises are eliminated in this remote water, and no one can save them.

Order, slow down, change sides against the wind, lean on. ”

Hmmm-

In Ai Wen's eyes, the "Long-snouted Shark", which suddenly turned uncharacteristically and quickly closed the distance, had changed into a different picture in the blink of an eye with a faint red light flashing.

In particular, the fiery red sails, which were like maple leaves, were speeding towards them from the sea.

"Red!

The crew members who witnessed this scene on the "Cape Storm", from Evan as the captain to ordinary sailors, all changed color in horror.

The sense of horror is like having fun with the Pleasant Goat, and the other party suddenly uncovers the sheepskin on his body to reveal a demon with a cape.

Seeing this scene, Ai Wen finally understood what the other party's plan was.

Unknowingly, he replaced the battleship and created a one-on-one opportunity for the strongest "Red Maple" to go one-on-one with himself, pulling the battle back to three against two before his arrival.

Moreover, Griffiths, the peak knight, is a character of the same level as the Black Sea Pirate King "Octopus Ghost" Huggins before being promoted to the fourth order [Impossible].

Think about how majestic Huggins was back then?

Even if this guy's name was also recorded in his small book of revenge for Uncle Geer, Ai Wen, who had just entered the third order, had no idea of fighting this kind of monster at all.

Maybe the "Storm Horn" will not be slightly weaker than the "Red Maple", but as long as Griffiths, the peak knight, is close, no matter how strong the ship is, no matter how sharp the ship is, it will not be of the slightest use.

Even if the speed of 22 knots is reached after the [White Shark Cruise] is turned on, it is only 40 kilometers per hour, which is not much different from the speed of a turtle for a peak knight.

When the opponent was assigned in the first place, why did you choose to let the "Northland Cold Wind" match it with it? The ability of the battleship is targeted on the one hand, and the balance between the peak knights is the first element.

This is also the main reason why the other two Cyrius battleships stayed at a safe distance to adopt battle avoidance tactics, it can't be fake, it can't be fake, a third-order magic can change the appearance of the battleship, but it can't create a real peak knight out of thin air.

"Right full rudder, stay away from it!"

In a flash of light, Evan had completely figured out the previous anomalies, but it was still a little late.

"Death!"

If you start a battleship battle between quasi-legends, I don't know how much time will be wasted chasing and escaping, and Griffiths, who is already in the hands of victory, obviously does not have that patience.

Phew-

This pinnacle knight was full of red fighting aura and flames, and he had already shot out from the deck of the "Red Maple" like a crossbow arrow, and his feet were a hundred meters away from the waves.

He didn't draw his sword, but held the bronze [Dragon's Breath Torch].

Raging...

Like a blazing sun suddenly descending on this sea, the blazing yellow-white flames turned into a 200-meter-long flame giant sword, as if it was about to cut off the "Storm Horn" lazily in a single swing!

In the face of this attack, the crew members all had numb scalps, weak legs, and their noses seemed to smell the scorching smell of their own burning.

An unprecedented deadly crisis has struck, and the countdown to death has begun to count.

"Don't panic, I'll stop him! Milan, activate the misty silver lantern, don't wait for me!"

Evan knew that in order for the "Stormhorn" to escape, he had to successfully drag Griffitz to be possible.

Have to!

"Yes!"

Knowing that this is not the time to play the mother-in-law of "you go quickly" and "I don't go, I want to go together", Milan decisively took the order.

Cracking sound...

Hmmm-

The next moment, a huge blue eagle wrapped in thunder had already risen into the sky.

Standing beside Aven, Olivia, who was also aware of the critical situation, rushed out together without the slightest hesitation, just like the countless battles that the two of them had experienced together in the spirit world.

Of course, it was not the official knight Roddy who intervened in the battlefield, but the official wizard Olivia of the "Gem School" with a rich family!

She took out the "Golden Rose of Tattoo Gold" placed in the bracelet, and a gust of wind in the shape of a horse rose from her feet, carrying her into the air.

Lightning burst out in Aven's eyes, before launching a frontal charge.

Bang –

In the sky, a bright red line of fire had already struck the eyes of the Grand Knight.
