Chapter 115 Narrow road encounter
When traveling through the Void, the layer of protection outside Valhalla can isolate the harsh Void environment, but it has no protection against the Void Force, nor does it protect against the cold of outer space. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
As Void Behemoths, the ubiquitous Void Force is like the air they breathe, and naturally they don't need defense. And the cold can be said to have no feeling for them who are extremely large and naturally strong.
But if ordinary people want to survive in such an environment, they need to use the Force to protect themselves at all times. As long as you don't have a general, the time to hold on is very limited. Even if you become a general, you can just stay longer.
Qianye looked at the route map, except for the crew in charge of the engine, the rest of them let them go to rest, and then took turns to take charge of the two engines.
Two high-powered engines that are enough to propel the destroyer play a negligible role in Valhalla, only increasing Valhalla's speed by more than ten kilometers per hour, and it also requires an acceleration process. In comparison, the motor sail that has already been built works even better.
Seeing that most of the crew members had returned to the protection cabin, there was only a thousand nights left in the large Valhalla, and he was still wandering. He simply flew up to the top of the earth, and stood there silently, staring at the magnificent and boundless void for a long time, and his heart was full of thoughts.
There is no sun and moon in the void, and two days have passed in the blink of an eye.
In the depths of the Void, a fleet of ships is sailing fast. The fleet consisted mainly of two high-speed transport ships, escorted by one high-speed warship. Whether it is a transport ship or a battleship, the logos on it are painted off, and the bright reflective parts are painted matte. All portholes are covered with thick curtains to keep the light out. The entire fleet, with only the occasional spew-out of the engines.
From a distance, the fleet seemed to melt into the void, invisible and invisible, and quickly moved away in the vast darkness.
In the command cabin of the high-speed battleship led by him, the bearded captain was holding a telescope and scanning back and forth in the void. The first mate next to him put down the binoculars at this time and said, "Old Ma, what can you see when you look at it all day and night? Our trip is so secretive, even I only know the destination after boarding the ship, what can be the problem?"
The bearded captain said in a low voice, "In this kind of place, anything can happen. ”
The first mate smiled: "We won't be so unlucky......"
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly shivered, and a wisp of ice and cold felt like a cold wave, sweeping through the entire command cabin!
The command compartment exploded, and the bearded captain immediately shouted, "It's the Demon Descendants!" We have been discovered, send a signal to the transport ships in the rear, and let them return the way they came. Pull the alarm, and the whole ship is ready for battle!"
After the liaison lights were lit and flashed continuously, the two high-speed transport ships in the rear began to speed up and turn, drew a large arc, and departed from the route.
The first mate watched the two transports gradually move away from the porthole, and suddenly sighed and said, "They can't escape, the ship of the demon descendants is too fast." What the hell, didn't you say that neutral lands are not for the Demons, what are they doing here?"
The captain opened the drawer, took out the two short guns inside, handed them to the first mate, and said, "Take it, you will need it later." ”
The first mate smiled wryly, "Do you think we still have a chance to use this thing?"
The captain's face was gloomy, but his eyes were full of fighting spirit, and he said, "Killing one counts as one." ”
"I hope so. The first mate is not optimistic.
In fact, both of them understood that before they saw each other's fleet, they were discovered by the opponent's perception scan, and only the duke-level powerhouses could do this. This time, the opponent is already so strong that it is desperate.
The camouflage on the surface of the battleship was removed one by one, and it was quickly ready for battle, the ballistas on the foredeck were quickly raised, and the arrows of the giant crossbow flashed with a cold and cold light, pointing straight into the void. The whole ship is high-spirited, and they all know that in the Void Ship Battle, defeat is death. It's just that these ordinary crew members don't know how strong the enemy is this time.
The bearded captain didn't say a word, staring at the front.
Finally, a slender demon-descended warship leaped out of the depths of the void and approached as quickly as a swimming fish. It's all black, with dark gold outlining lines that seem to be jumping. Whenever people see a Demon Warrior ship, they are impressed by its elegance and magnificence. However, in the eyes of the Imperial soldiers, this elegance was synonymous with death in the outright.
With the appearance of the first Demon Warrior Battleship, more and more warships leaped out of the void one after another, and it was endless.
"So much!" the first mate, even though he had experienced many wars, couldn't help but gasp at this moment.
A total of more than a dozen large and small demonic warships appeared, and this came to an end. But instead of breathing a sigh of relief, everyone held their breath, staring at the deep darkness that seemed to be empty, waiting for the final moment to come.
After an unbearable silence, finally, a giant ship slowly slid out of the void, surrounded by many demonic warships, coldly and proudly looking down at the weak imperial warship in front of it.
Looking at this huge ship with a length of three hundred meters, the atmosphere in the command cabin completely turned to despair. The one who can sit in this giant ship will at least be the vice-duke. The Demon Vice-Duke, with his natural weirdness and high speed, was able to explode this Imperial warship in the void even if he didn't rely on a ship. After all, this is just a frigate, high speed and agility are the biggest pluses. When this point is also crushed, there is no way to fight back.
All the Demon Warrior ships were motionless, only to hear a cold voice ringing out in the command cabin: "I'm Lin Jiaer of the Maysfield family, give up resistance, don't bother me." ”
The first mate and the captain glanced at each other, both smiling bitterly.
Lin Jiaer, who came from the Maysfield family, is known as the flower that never withers, and is considered a genius of the first two generations, and has crossed the biggest hurdle in recent years and grown into a vice-duke. However, she comes from a famous demon family, and although she is not a long time old, in the evaluation of the Empire, her combat power can already be included in the middle of all the vice-dukes of eternal night.
That's quite a feat. To be able to break through to the Duke is no less difficult than that of the Terran Race to break through the gods, and those who cross this heavenly pass are all heroes for a while. After the breakthrough, many people have exhausted their talents here, and the improvement of combat power often depends on the accumulation of long years. Lin Jiaer's ability to stand out among the many geniuses shows that the future does not stop at the vice-duke, and even the duke may not be the end.
In the past years, the Flower of Never Withering has had brilliant achievements and rare defeats, which have made the empire suffer terribly. In her life, she was defeated several times in a row under Lin Xitang, but Lin Xitang never seized the opportunity to kill her completely, which shows her difficulty.
The captain's face was solemn and he said, "How could Lin Jiaer appear in this place and lead a fleet of such a size. No, this matter is very important, and we must find a way to inform the Seven Youths and the Empire. ”
The first mate smiled bitterly, "Do you think we still have the possibility of notifying Qishao now?"
At this moment, the distant scene made the captain furious, and he slammed his fist on the control console, smashing the steel countertop into a deep pit.
Instead of accelerating, the two high-speed transports, which had already turned and could accelerate their escape, stopped, apparently ready to be captured.
The captain was furious: "These bastards!"
The first mate said, "Can you escape?"
The captain knew that this was true, no matter how fast the transport ship was, it would not be able to outrun the Demon Descendants' warship. Not to mention them, even this high-speed frigate can't outrun Lin Jiaer's ship, so the captain plans to fight to the death.
But even though he knew that it was the truth, the captain was still extremely angry, and said angrily: "Those two ships are the hard work of Qi Shao, even if they can't escape, how can they fall into the hands of the enemy? Why don't you blow up the ship?"
The first mate sighed lightly and said, "Old Ma, you still have this temper. You're not afraid of death, but people want to live, what can we do?"
"Is it impossible to just watch the cargo fall into the hands of the demons?" The captain's eyes flashed with anger, and he suddenly shouted: "The whole ship turns around, aim at those bastards, and sink them for me!"
The first mate hurriedly grabbed the captain and shouted, "Don't do it! Those two ships are brothers who have been with the Seventh Boy for more than ten years!"
"Brother, will the brotherhood surrender at this time?"
The first mate didn't let go, and said, "If you want to fight the demon first, you will fight the demon descendant!"
"Okay!" the captain still hated.
At this time, in the command cabin, Lin Jiaer's extremely cold voice sounded again: "Little guy in front, don't you plan to surrender?"
As she spoke, the main guns of several demonic warships began to glow, indicating that the energy was replenished and ready to bombard. Two other warships sped forward to outflank the rear.
The captain pointed to the demon warship in front of him and shouted, "That's it! Brothers, if you are not afraid of death, we will bomb him, even if you die, we will be cruel to these demon cubs!"
The battleship's ballistae turned at the order, and it was clear that the fighters on the ship were not afraid of death.
The captain's right hand was raised high, and he was about to be cut down, giving the command to fire, when a giant crossbow suddenly flew out of the void in the distance, piercing the stern of the outermost demon warship. A dazzling fireball suddenly ignited at the back of the Demon Warrior Battleship, and the flames spread rapidly, engulfing half of the ship's hull in a matter of moments.
This sudden change immediately shocked both sides. The glow of the burning Demon Ship was too strong, which made the surroundings even darker, making it impossible to see what was going on for a while.
Imperial warships have a better angle because of their location. The first mate pointed into the distance and stammered, "That, what is that!"
At the same moment, in the Demon Descendant Giant Ship, Lin Jiaer, who was wearing a high-necked gorgeous military uniform, stood up and stared at the giant beast slowly emerging in the void in the distance, and it was also difficult to hide his shock: "Void Giant Beast? No, the battleship?
In the distant void, a void beast was leaping out silently, it was more than a kilometer long from head to tail, and its head alone was more than a hundred meters. This is the real behemoth, compared to which Lingar's ship is like a child's toy.
It doesn't look like a living thing, it's clearly a skeleton, and it's dead for an unknown number of years. But he moved freely, as if he still had life.
It wasn't until a ballista shot out of its mouth that it hit another Demon Descendant warship that Lin Jiaer was finally sure that it was a battleship.
"The whole fleet fights back!" Lin Jiaer's cold voice resounded through the void, and all the Demon Descendant warships were dispatched, like a swarm of sharks smelling blood, eager to pounce on this strange beast of unknown origin.
Qianye was standing in the mouth of the Earth Dragon, staring at the Demon Warrior Ship that was rushing to the front through the teeth that stood like a peak. He firmly locked on to his target, and with a strong step, the huge ballista under him shook violently, and the four-meter-long giant crossbow roared out and blasted towards the oncoming demon warship.
Almost at the same moment, the bow of the Demon Warrior also glowed with Force light, and two giant crossbows were fired at the same time, and as soon as the main gun fired, it immediately began to turn, trying to avoid the barrage of bolts.
This Daedric ship is well-trained, extremely fast, and has ferocious firepower. The ballista it fired, although slightly shorter than the one shot by Senya, fired two salvos at a time. In terms of firepower, it has already surpassed the main destroyers of the Reich. Unlike the well-balanced Bloodline Battleship, the Demon Warrior has always been known for its high speed, powerful firepower, and many strange abilities.
At this moment, the whole body of this demon-descended battleship became looming, as if it was shrouded in a layer of fog, and even its flight trajectory became erratic. This is the most famous "fog concealment" of the Demon Warrior warship, which, once activated, will cause the locked ballista to lose its target. I don't know how many times the Demon Warrior has dodged a fatal blow with this ability. This is one of the abilities that Imperial captains hate the most.
As soon as the fog came out, the flying giant crossbow suddenly lost its target, and its trajectory deviated significantly. However, the fog may have worked for others, but in the true vision of Thousand Nights, all the fog was seen through, and the trajectory of the Demon Descendant battleship was clearly visible.
Qianye's perception has always been connected with the tracking giant crossbow that was shot, and at the moment, his mind turned, and the light of the force array of the giant crossbow flowed throughout his body, and he suddenly turned around and blasted towards the stern of the Demon Descendant Battleship at full speed!
The Demon Descendant Battleship thought it had dodged this blow, but it didn't expect the calamity to come suddenly, and it was no longer time to dodge, and the fragile stern of the ship was hit solidly!
The crossbow shot straight into the exhaust tunnel, stabbed deep into the engine, and exploded. The strong impact also detonated the battleship's main engine, and in a series of earth-shattering explosions, the entire back half of the demon-descended battleship was blown away, and the remnants of the first half of the ship rolled and floated into the void under the impact.
At the same time as the Daedric battleship exploded, two giant crossbows also hit Valhalla. But they slammed their teeth on the ground and exploded.
Covering her head and face with her arms, Chiya easily withstood the aftermath of the blast before inspecting the damage.
The outside of the Earth Bolt's teeth was only scorched black, and Qianye swung an invisible Force blade to scrape off the charred charcoal traces, and found that the entire tooth was unscathed, not even the tiniest crack. The Demon Warrior Ship's blow was useless against the remains of the Earth Strider.
Qianye suddenly relieved himself and aimed at another Demon Warrior Ship. However, this battleship was much smarter, and instead of confronting Qianye, it immediately jumped up and flew to the dead end of the ballista's firing range. The other Daedric warships did the same, like a swarm of sharks, unfurling around the vast Valhalla, and all sorts of ballistas were shooting like flying locusts.
All of a sudden, the huge hull of Valhalla continued to burst out with fireballs, shaking and trembling.
Qianye tried his best to control Valhalla to dodge, but Valhalla was so large that the power system was not even a tenth of it installed, and it could only rely on the energy provided by the heart and the instinct left by the remains of the remains to fly. It was like a real beast, staggering and somewhat clumsily maneuvering with the sharks.
