Chapter 638: Naval Battle (I)
Faka is a smart man, a smart man, and will never choose the only path.
But even if Salin understood that Faka wanted to use himself and the Worm Angel armor was in hand, he would go to Alchemy City to try it. The Demon God Flying Armor is made for demons, but this Worm Angel Armor can be applied to many races.
With the Iron-Blooded Grand Duke as an ally, Saleen can reduce a lot of losses.
The Iron Lord didn't want to lose too many soldiers, but it was worth it. Because of the existence of Alchemy City, his interests on the sea can only be in the clouds, and under the attack of Lianyun City, he still does not want to expand, because Alchemy City will stab him in the back at any time.
Alchemy City controls the shipping routes, making Lianyun City lose its economic value.
And Alchemy City is self-sufficient, not afraid of harassment by the iron-blooded Grand Duke.
The preparations went on until the end of October, and the weather became cold, which was a good thing for Saleen and the Iron Blood Grand Duke, and the alchemy city in winter was rarely sent out to hunt the monsters outside.
The Floating City could not fly directly to the Alchemy City, so Salin sank it slightly under the water, followed the Arren warship, and headed south. The volume of the Floating City is too large, drifting underwater, the speed must be reduced to less than thirty miles per hour, such a speed, it will take a while to reach the Alchemy City, Salin continued to refine equipment on the Floating City, and the 200,000 soldiers of the Iron and Blood Grand Duke waited patiently.
The fleet headed south, escorted by sixty ships on the left and right of the Arago battleship, and it didn't encounter any trouble along the way. On this day, it was already close to the Alchemy City, and the magic array on the ancient battleship was activated, and a large number of magic cores were put into the magic furnace, and the ancient battleship was shrouded in clouds and mist, hiding the entire fleet.
The wind was very small, and a patrol ship of the Devil's Horn entered the fog, and suddenly found that the magic compass was invalid, and the pointer was turning around on the compass, and it was impossible to distinguish the direction. The fog, which did not seem to be thick, suddenly completely obscured the daylight, and everyone on the whole boat lost their vision and sense of direction.
The boat, which was only more than 50 meters long, shook violently, then broke into two pieces and sank into the water.
"Release the Scroll"
"SOS"
The sailors and soldiers on the ship panicked, and a three-pole mage reacted fairly quickly, unfolding a scroll for help, and an orange fireball flew into the sky, but before it could fly twenty meters high, it was blown down by a gust of wind.
Tempest
The mage can't see it, but he can feel it. This time, he was sure that he had encountered an enemy.
Immediately, the dense fog dispersed slightly, and dozens of people wearing crimson armor appeared on the broken ship. These dozens of people swept from the bow to the stern of the ship, and in just half a minute, they slaughtered the people who were planning to jump into the sea to escape.
The mage didn't escape, he only saw the spear in the hand of the red-armored warrior, the flickering red light seemed to be the flames of hell, and with a slight jump, it pierced his throat.
The Predator is a ninth-level soldier, the result of the alchemy transformation of the human body, because the number controlled by Persia is ten times greater than that of Salin, but the combat power will be weaker than that of the ancient warriors.
However, for soldiers below level nine, these Predators are the Grim Reaper.
On the periphery of the Devil's Horn, patrolling ships disappeared one after another, which immediately aroused the alarm of the Devil's Horn. The Devil's Horn itself is also shrouded in fog all year round, and the warriors on the island are all fully enclosed armor, and the eyes are not honeycomb-shaped holes, but pieces of crystal, which can see far in the fog.
At this time, Salin was no longer in the Floating City. He came to the ancient warship and joined up with the men of the Iron and Blood Grand Duke, preparing to forcibly attack the Devil's Horn.
The speed of the Aragu warship suddenly increased, and it shook off the floating city and headed straight for the mist-shrouded island.
On the island, the warriors were preparing to leave the port by boat, and more than a dozen warships collided head-on with the Arago warship. The Asoku Battleship has the ability to accelerate instantaneously, and this acceleration consumes a lot of money.
The iron-blooded Grand Duke didn't care, and the ancient battleship directly knocked over more than a dozen Devil's Horn battleships and pushed them outside the port.
The harbor of the Devil's Horn is a deep-water port, and the Araksu warship can even sail into it. But now, the only thing the Arako battleship did was to fire magic cannons and trebuchets into the harbor.
The power of trebuchets is relatively weak, but because Persia has placed too many puppets on the ancient warships, these golems can manipulate hundreds of trebuchets to attack, and the cost of this trebuchet is much smaller than that of magic cannons.
Trebuchets can only attack the docks, but the magic cannon can attack farther away, and if it weren't for the mountains on the Devil's Horn, the magic cannon could even cover half of the island.
At the dock of the Devil's Horn, a magic tower was also arranged, and the magic tower immediately launched a counterattack.
The trebuchet frantically poured magic stone projectiles, and because of the magic trebuchet made by Persia, Salin was a little embarrassed. This magic trebuchet not only has an extremely accurate landing point, but it can also fire continuously, if it weren't for the fact that the range can't be compared with the magic cannon, and the attack power is slightly lower, Salin wants to buy some.
The magic tower of the Devil's Horn was not destroyed by the trebuchet, but it could not resist the attack of the trebuchet at all, and the people on the dock suffered heavy casualties. The ships in the harbor, the ones with mages on them were fine, and the ones that didn't have mages stationed were basically smashed and sunk by the launch of the three-wheeled trebuchet.
Salin didn't expect the trebuchet to be so powerful, you know, the Devil's Horn arranged about six magic towers in the harbor, three of which could completely envelop the harbor with magic. However, there were too many trebuchets on the ancient warship, and the defense of the battleship itself and the magic tower could not penetrate it.
The layout of the Devil's Horn is incomplete as it is obtained here in Persia, but the information from the port is absolutely accurate. This time, Salin also carried the Iwaki Alchemy Ship to guard underwater.
There are also more than a hundred metal diving battleships ordered by the Iron and Blood Grand Duke here in Saleen, eyeing them fiercely, but the Asogu battleships suddenly accelerated and collided, and there was nothing wrong with these diving battleships. None of the battleships in the harbor could sail out.
The metal battleships immediately dispersed underwater and returned to the rear of the fleet to guard against the approach of other enemy ships.
This move is really right. The Devil's Horn had large warships cruising for a long time in the south, which was supposed to be guarded against cloud flows. This port was attacked, and the fleet immediately returned to sail.
The dragon wreck battleship hid in the fog and waited quietly. The Devil's Horn also has flying warships, which, if dispatched, will inflict massive damage on the soldiers on the deck of the ancient warship.
The Iwaki Alchemy Ship received the information and sneaked south from the harbor, and at a distance of 100 miles, it encountered the fleet that was rushing back. The submarine battleship has been completely modified from Persia and fires a magical metal projectile.
Salin had to admire Impos, this magic metal bullet was simply a puppet, able to find targets on its own, and then use the drill bit at the front of the metal bullet to carry out complex attacks. If it weren't for pure metal armor, a single magic metal bullet could completely disintegrate a large ship.
The man in control of these metal battleships is the Predator of Inbo, a Predator who commands dozens of puppets. Battleships are precious, but they can destroy the enemy's fleet, and it doesn't matter if these metal battleships are lost.
Hit the devil's horn, and the wealth is endless.
Inside the metal magic bullet, there is also a bloodstone. The Yunliu people were originally good at these things, because Persia was a master of alchemy, and the weapons he made were much better than those of Salin.
The Devil's Horn's fleet consisted of less than twenty ships, all metal-armoured, and incredibly fast. The mage on the battleship spotted the metal magic bullet and immediately launched a blockade.
The metal magic projectile swam less than 100 meters underwater, and pounced on the battleship of the Devil's Horn, and the magician on the battleship immediately released a large amount of magic, destroying the underwater attacks one by one.
It's just that the Yunliu people are skilled, each magic can only destroy one metal magic bullet, and in the first round of attacks, ten battleships were hit, and two of them were fatally damaged.
The metal magic projectile slammed into the metal armor and jammed on, bouncing off the warhead, sending hundreds of small golems rushing out, spinning hard gears all over their bodies. The metal on these gears is crystallized and harder than metal. The two battleships were immediately torn apart by huge wounds.
A one-meter-sized puppet in the rear, carrying the Weeping Bloodstone, entered through this wound. The Bloodstone's stabilizer and stabilizing magic array were only revoked at this time, and then there was a violent explosion.
The other eight ships were slightly less traumatized, as the Weeping Bloodstone exploded prematurely and did not make it into the vulnerable parts of the ship's interior. This kind of offensive weapon is not stable.
Immediately at the gap between the eight damaged battleships, a mage cast a magic spell and pushed the heavy metal plate up, blocking it so tightly that it did not produce a large amount of water.
On the two heavily damaged battleships, a large number of small boats were thrown down at once. These dinghys are all made of monster skins, and after falling into the water, they are fully gased. The soldiers protected the mage and jumped up. Of course, mages can fly and fight, but it's still far from the devil's horn, and mages have to maintain their stamina, and they don't know the number of enemies.
The second round of attacks came immediately, and the Turtle Alchemy Ship joined the attack sequence. The Wing Skull could see clearly that these dozen or so battleships were not the main force of the Devil's Horn, and it was better to fight quickly.
The bone spirit was hidden in the metal magic bullet, the swimming speed slowed down, the second round of attacks of more than a hundred metal magic bullets, only one hit the target, the mage quality of the devil's horn made the wing skeleton admire, but these bone spirits were alive, after the metal magic bullet was volleyed, it accelerated sharply, evaded the enemy's interception, and all hit the target.
The third round of attacks began immediately, and by this time, there were nineteen battleships, none of which could move quickly. All of them were flooded, and below the waterline, one or two huge holes were opened.
There were hundreds of life-saving boats thrown from the battleship, and the mages flew up and landed on the boats to search for the enemy. The metal battleship can dive for 300 meters, and now in order to attack, it has to float to a depth of several tens of meters, and the magician can easily search for it. In the case of a duel between a metal battleship and a mage, none of them will be spared.
However, at this time, more than 20 warships had already arrived in the fleet of the Asogu warships and joined the battle sequence. The speed at which the Yunliu people are mobilized at sea is beyond imagination, and it is also very agile. On the small battleship in front, they began to shoot large alchemy crossbows to attack the boats floating on the sea.
