Chapter 213: The Battle of Persecution (Part I)
Fifty miles, forty miles, thirty miles......
The distance between the two sides is getting closer. Kornuko had a magic book in his hand. Apparently sharpening the gun, it was a book on the language of the undead.
Fortunately, the skeleton had evolved intelligence, and after Kornuko gave the order, the dragon wreck battleship began to accelerate, and the bow of the ship also adjusted its posture, stretching forward, and a pair of sharp and huge dragon horns looked like giant cavalry spears.
When the two sides approached the distance of ten miles, the Eye of the Dead finally captured a clear image, which were six ironclad ships, which did not have any symbol of the Qin Yin Empire on them, let alone from Alchemy City.
Kornuko breathed a sigh of relief, if the other party was a battleship of Alchemy City, he really didn't know what to do. Although the relationship between Shrieg Island and Alchemy City is not that of superiors and subordinates, going to war directly and offending such a large force is the result that Kornuko does not want.
The six ironclad ships, bronze in color, suddenly spread out over a distance of ten miles, slowing down, in preparation for the use of magic trebuchets. The stones thrown by the magic trebuchet are themselves magic items, some of which can weigh thousands of pounds. No matter how strong the Dragonwreck battleship is, it will also be damaged by the wild bombardment.
The Shadow Sail was put away. Thirty-six skeletons stood in the magic array, activating all the core power of the dragon wreck battleship. The battleship twisted slightly, and accelerated abruptly, from seventy miles to more than a hundred miles.
The Eye of the Dead had captured the flags between the six battleships, and having spotted the enemy's flagship, Kornuko did not hesitate to give the order to ram. The goal is this flagship. There was the supreme commander of the enemy on the flagship, and when the flagship was sunk, the enemy had no commander.
The dense sound of air vibration was unusually sharp in the wind, and dozens of magic stone projectiles flew up at the same time, falling in the direction of the dragon wreck battleship. The enemy is actually firing in the middle of the advance, this must be a hundred battles.
The magic stone projectiles were extremely dense, and the landing points were not scattered, and the opponent's target exceeded Kornuko's expectations. However, because the Dragonwreck Battleship suddenly accelerated, the enemy miscalculated, and dozens of magic stone bullets all fell behind the Dragonwreck Battleship. After all, the Magic Stone Bullet is not magic, it is slow, it can't be tracked automatically, and its power is weaker than the Weeping Bloodstone explosion carried by the bone spirit.
The Dragon Sea battleship was unscathed, but Kornuko's face was a little heavy, and he said to Salin beside him: "My lord, the enemy can use magic trebuchets in fast movement, there must be a great magician, and there are all six ships."
"Six Great Magicians?" Salin frowned and said, "Let the swordsmen not go out, we will fight hard and sink the ship, what's the use of them having a great magician?"
Saleen was muttering in his heart. Wherever these six battleships are placed, they can't be counted as the main force, why are there so many great magicians? It must be that the news of sinking those battleships has leaked, and it has attracted the attention of the East China Sea Alliance. These six battleships are the vanguard, and there may be a lot of trouble in the back.
Thinking of this, he couldn't let any of the enemies go.
"Nellis, if the archmage on the other side can fly, you and Sika will have to strike. Kill them all, I don't want to take them prisoner. ”
"Got it, master. Neris replied with a smile. She likes this kind of thing, but it turns out that Saleen doesn't like it, so she is tied. Now that Saleen had kept her alive, Neris was still happy.
Salin is not pedantic at all, the enemy has more than six great magicians, if he can't kill a few by surprise and be besieged, the consequences will be worrying. Why didn't you bring the Three Kings out this time?
Salin didn't bring the Three Kings because there was no defense left in the city, and after he took the last two driver magicians, only the Caucasians were left in the city, and there were a few low-level mages left. If the Three Kings do not stay, once the city is attacked. Saleen's lair was lost.
The size of Salin's city is not small, and his manpower is small, and every day hundreds of people patrol the suburbs on demon wolves or skeleton war horses, and it is impossible to effectively monitor all directions.
The best way is to learn from the Holy Rock City, and build a militarized town dozens of miles north and west of Metatrin City, preferably with a magic tower, otherwise it will be a lonely city, and it will be difficult to find approaching enemies. But Saleen couldn't even gather the soldiers to defend the walls, let alone build any more towns. He could only concentrate his forces in the center of the city and let the three kings sit in charge. As long as the enemy is not a ninth-level magician, the three kings can deal with it.
The relative speed of the warships on both sides has reached one hundred and fifty miles, and the distance of several miles is almost instantaneous. Before the six ships could react, Salin's dragon wreck battleship had already slammed into the flagship.
The number of magic trebuchets of the flagship is smaller, with only three. Under this impact, the great magician in the middle of the three magic trebuchets was knocked to the ground, and the magic golems responsible for carrying the stones all flew out, and dozens of nearby soldiers were injured.
The sound of a landslide and a crack sounded on the sea, and the battleship equipped with iron armor with a thickness of more than two centimeters was smashed by the dragon wreck battleship, and the entire bow of the battleship was shattered, and the keel of the battleship was made of wood, although it could absorb the impact force, but the force of the collision had exceeded the limit that the battleship could bear, and in less than ten seconds, there was a sound like bursting beans inside the battleship.
The archmage on the deck climbed up and looked in horror at the dragonship that had collided with it. The huge dragon horns had torn open the iron armor of the battleship, and the bow of the ship was gone, and the debris was scattered.
The opposing battleship did not continue to attack the flagship, but quickly turned its bow. Pounce on another battleship. This time, the Dragonwreck Battleship was rammed into it from the side, and the second battleship was knocked through a huge gap in the middle without even struggling.
The dragon wreck battleship didn't need to continue attacking at all, under the force of the seawater, the ironclad ship that had been heavily damaged from the middle was quickly disconnected, and it would be completely sunk into the sea in less than ten minutes.
All the battleships were no more than two miles away, and the other four battleships were a little slow to react when they saw this scene, and only when the second battleship was destroyed did they re-fire the magic stone projectiles.
The dragon wreck battleship quickly dodged the stone bullets falling from the sky, and in the cabin of the battleship, everyone tried to fix their bodies. Although the inner cabin did not shake much under the impact, this flexible dodge action made everyone stagger. Only the seventy or so skeletons were unaffected, firmly controlling the battleship.
Nellis's eyes lit up and she said, "Master, this is really exciting!"
Saleen doesn't know gravity, he can only hold Neris with a bitter look on his face. The ship was so strong that it exceeded his expectations, and the magic stone projectiles smashed up, only some of the decks were smashed. The hull is not affected at all. As long as there are no people standing on the deck, such an attack will not cause trouble for the Dragonwreck Battleship.
But when the battleship was running wildly, he hated to tie himself to the ground unless he flew.
As long as this battleship is not besieged, it is impossible for a warship of the same size below twelve to harm it. Because the speed of the dragon wreck battleship is too fast, the acceleration and deceleration are also very abrupt, making it difficult for the magic trebuchet to accurately capture a good landing point. In the second round of enemy attacks, only a fifth fell near the battleship.
What made Salin's flesh hurt was that this way of dodging directly increased the speed of consuming the magic core by five times. In just a few moments, the magic core worth tens of thousands of gold coins has been consumed.
"Your Excellency. They're coming!"
Saleen didn't need to be reminded, he had already seen in the image transmitted back by the Eye of the Dead that four mages were flying from the sky towards the Dragonskeletal Battleship. Two of them flew very reluctantly, and Salin was slightly sure that these two were fifth-level magicians who had only come into contact with the art of flying. The other two weren't magicians either, and their flight speed was about the same as their own, or even slower than their own Cloud Walkers.
Theoretically, if the Dragonwreck Battleship ran desperately at any cost, these magicians would not even be able to catch up. But there were still three battleships that had not been sunk, and if Saleen had escaped, those three battleships would have been saved.
"Nellis, you cooperate with Aini to deal with one, and I and Shika against the other. Saleen calmly gave the order.
"What about us?" asked Kornuco and Passataro. These two fourth-level mages are also very strong, if the battle time is not so long, with the combined force, they can barely deal with a fifth-level mage.
"You use the scroll and hold it for two minutes. Salin licked his lips, he hadn't fought in person for a long time, he felt his heart burn, and it seemed that he was looking forward to the next conflict.
The remaining three warships no longer fired magic stone projectiles, and the great magicians on board all left, they could no longer accurately control the landing point of the stone bullets, and they would even smash their own people from the sky.
"Hey. Seeing that the battleship had stopped turning frantically, Schika let go of Saleen and took her weapon, the giant club, from the Ring of Gifts. She didn't have much pressure for the rest of the battle, as her weapon spellbreaker was so powerful that even if she was allowed to get close, the shield under the mage wouldn't be able to stop her club. Sarin's Water Pattern Shield was better than the Ice Pattern Armor in terms of strength and toughness, and it was still broken by her blow in a dozen layers.
The only trouble was that she couldn't fly, and if the magician wanted to, she couldn't. But the enemy is here to fight, if they run. The dragon wreck battleships chased after them one by one and directly sank their ships. Without the ship, these magicians may not be able to return alive on the sea.
Southwest of Phoenix, a medium-sized city, Stranburg. The gates of the city were closed, and fifty miles outside the city was a large camp. The snow near the camp has not been cleared, and it is clear that this is a makeshift camp. Outside the camp, there were knights in iron armor patrolling, these knights had solemn faces and strict discipline. Everyone's armor, on their chests, has a dark red emblem - a six-winged flying snake.
This is the emblem of the Grükos family, and no one can use it except the Qin Yin royal family.
