Chapter XXVII: The First War
The mission of going to sea this time is very clear: first, to occupy the volcanic area of Fish-Man Island, and try to ensure that Lin Feng can successfully break through the bottleneck of a tenth-level mage. The second is to establish a good relationship with the Krakens on Fitrillant Island and finally reach a mutually beneficial trade relationship, for this reason, Lin Feng's fleet also brought a lot of special products that the Krakens did not have.
The most valuable of those specialties are iron weapons and armor, and of course, those things can't compare to the private custom version of Heliel. Not to mention the beauty of the ship, few of the weapons and armor in the cabin were enchanted.
Lin Feng said that his daily magic power was really not enough, and in order to make money, he had booked a lot of various alchemy potions. The mana consumed every day hovers around the cordon, which is really dangerous for a magician.
Since he didn't go around in circles to explore other seas this time, Lin Feng's fleet only took three days to rush to the waters near Fidgetter Island and Fish-Man Island. This also shows that these two islands are about 1,000 kilometers away from Nanlin Island, and they are at least 2,000 kilometers away from the southern part of the mainland, which also makes Lin Feng more confident in this single trade.
The "South Wind" rushed to the front, and the remaining five ships were about a kilometer behind, after all, the rest of the ships were not warships, and their own protection capabilities were poorer. The Southwind had plenty of compartments to store gunpowder, so its crew had a number of musketeers in addition to jumpers armed with scimitar swords.
In Lin Feng's opinion, the musketeers in this world are similar to the musketeers of the Napoleonic period, they are all flintlock muskets, and they have to reload gunpowder and bullets after one shot.
Lin Feng didn't have the heart to reform the musket at this time, because no matter how much he reformed, he couldn't get something like the Earth Fire God Cannon. Not to mention anything else, just as consumables like bullets are concerned, they can be made through magical engineering, and Lin Feng doesn't have the financial and manpower to produce them on a large scale.
On the "South Wind", the artillery was in position, the musketeers had set up their muskets, and the rest of the combatants were in place. Lin Feng rejected Heliel's suggestion to sail directly to Fiddler Island, and he directly let the "South Wind" turn to Fish-Man Island.
Lin Feng's purpose is very clear, he wants to exterminate those fishmen on Fish-Man Island first, on the one hand, he can create a fait accompli to occupy that volcanic island, so as not to have any more trouble with the Krakens, on the other hand, Lin Feng also wants to show his strength and use the blood of the Fishmen to warn the Kraken clan not to have any other bad ideas.
The volcano on Fish-Man Island has calmed down a lot, and the fish-people who attacked Fiddler Island have largely returned to Fish-Man Island and rebuilt their rudimentary villages after no existential threat is gone.
The Krakens on Fiddler Island were unlucky, and were caught off guard by the fishmen, losing a lot of their clansmen who lived on the island. When they had gathered enough warriors from their inhabitation at the bottom of the sea, the fishmen retreated to Fish-Man Island.
Lack of offense and more than enough defense, this is the problem that the Krakens are currently facing. It's not that they didn't want to completely exterminate those fishmen, but the Krakens themselves are not much higher in combat power than the fishmen, and they are not as cruel and ferocious as the fishmen.
If this really starts, the consequences are also unbearable for the Krakens. You must know that living in the deep sea, the enemies of the Krakens are not only the fishmen, but also the other deep-sea beasts and ferocious giant fish. You can't do everything you can to exterminate the fish-people, and then be exterminated by other creatures, right?
When the krakens on Fiddler Island were vigilantly defending the fishmen on the opposite island, Lin Feng's fleet appeared in front of them. In the face of these huge ships of unknown origin, in addition to sending two krakens to the undersea village to report the news, the rest of the krakens immediately took up arms and stood on guard.
The battle on Lin Feng's side started quickly and ended quickly, several rows of ships bombarded it, and the fish-man village located on Fish-Man Island became a ruin, and the unsuspecting fish-men were bombed and suffered heavy casualties, except for a small number of the remaining fish-men who were killing towards the "South Wind", the others were running around in panic on the island.
Lin Feng didn't mean to save shells, and ordered the naval guns to continue to bombard the remnants of the fishmen on the island, and if they could be solved with cannons, Lin Feng would never let his subordinates take risks. Those fishmen swimming towards the "South Wind" were also about to enter the range of the muskets, and Lin Feng had already ordered to fire as soon as the fishmen showed their heads.
Of course, the jumpers are also ready on the side of the ship, just waiting to condescendingly slash and slash the fishmen who are about to climb up, well, the lord can say that a fish head will reward ten silver coins.
Lin Feng was also ready to release the Fireball Technique, as an intermediate fire magician, Lin Feng hadn't fought with magic yet, well, the usual contact didn't count as a battle.
One didn't pay attention, a silver shadow flashed behind Lin Feng, and with a "poof", someone jumped into the sea. Lin Feng just wanted to scold, "What kind of fool is it, don't you wait on the boat to kill the fishman, don't you find your own death by jumping into the sea to fight the fishman?
However, Lin Feng's words didn't have a chance to scold. Because it was Heliel's little kraken who jumped into the sea. I saw her disappear in the sea like a silver horse, and every pause of her would create a bright blood flower.
Lin Feng looked straight in the eyes, "This little kraken is so powerful, it's just a natural warrior in the sea." Well, there's a head, this is to form an underwater force composed of pure krakens, and other human conventional underwater troops such as water ghosts, frogmen and so on, are all given for nothing in front of it. ”
When the first fishman who rushed towards Heliel slashed at her with its bone knife, she still subconsciously used her snake tail to resist, but Heliel rushed too fast, and the fishman's bone knife slashed her snake tail near the root, if she had been cut this part before, Heliel would have at least been cut out of a big hole, but now with the protection of the new skirt armor, Heliel was not hurt at all.
Hayriel was very happy about this, and stabbed through the fishman with a spear, and the scale armor on the fishman did not play a protective role in the slightest. Clenching the spear in her hand, Heliel was even happier than the bronze spear she had received during her bar mitzvah.
With confidence in her heart, Heliel gave full play to her advantages, and when the snake's tail swayed rapidly, she quickly swam in the water, and the streamlined armor also effectively reduced the resistance of the seawater, almost a spear, and the fishmen in Hayel's line of sight were stabbed by her.
