Section 222 The First Ambergris War (23)
The elves at the forefront of the nature boats were slowed down by the activation cables that probed from the ghost ships in the smoke, and the elves on the ships had to divide some of their men to stop using magic to control the direction of the wind, and use fire spells to destroy the activated cables and floating ghosts.
It's not that hard to deal with in normal times, but it's terrible at this moment.
As soon as the first few natural boats slowed down, the elven fleet behind them was also affected.
After sinking the decoy, and with the help of the sudden appearance of the ghost ship, Marbond's fleet finally completed the steering and artillery preparation in time, and one after another swarthy cannons poked out of the portholes, roaring and firing cannonballs at the High Elf fleet.
A natural boat that bore the brunt of the bombardment was hit several times under the shelling and began to sink.
For a moment, the High Elves had to deal with cannonballs coming from afar and an attack from the ghost ship, and they couldn't help but be embarrassed.
Solid cannonballs have little effect on the damage of the ghosts, and even appear to penetrate the past ghosts unharmed, but if the flowering shell explodes, even the ghosts that are boarding the ship to fight the elves will distort in front of the air wave of the explosion and then disappear.
But in the midst of the smoke, one of the kings of the Isle of the Dead, the demigod Lich Matthius, was in the deepest part of the ghost ship, surrounded by countless green shadows.
In what came to be known as the First Champling War, the first action of the Lord of Life was the undead fulfilling a deal with Asturias.
However, Macaius's attack at this time was at the request of the Aurora to attack the High Elves, not to help the Titanian fleet.
However, since the undead are always inconvenient to appear in front of people, even if they are secretly in collusion with Asturias and Aurora. In particular, the relationship with the Aurora people is now almost public. The Auroras while fighting on the Falmalik continent. The kings of the undead "coincidentally" attacked the army of the indigenous Aprolo Empire without warning, but the undead quietly opened another window and took Asturias to be more secretive.
However, years later, as a large number of scholars and history buffs studied the process and significance of the Ambergris War, the High Elves were initially careless, and the undead were exposed to the fact that they had made deals with Asturian after the undead attacked the port city of Fiji on the west coast.
And, because of this. The timing of the start of the Ambergris War has been disputed, with historical orthodoxy still insisting that the attack on Mochizuki City should have begun, but others have argued that it should have been counted from the attack on Fiji by the undead.
In front of him is Masaius controlling this ghost ship called the Scavenger, the generation of the ghost ship, if it is a natural situation, and the evolution of the natural undead requires certain conditions, the most basic condition is a shipwreck, and accompanied by a large number of creatures that die with the shipwreck, on this basis, if it is a natural evolution into a ghost ship, the probability of evolving into a ghost ship is quite small. But if a demigod lich like Matthias takes the initiative to create or create the conditions, the success rate is much higher.
The Scavenger continued its diversion attack on the Elven Battleship under the control of Macaius, though the explosion of the flowering bomb did not target the Ghost Ship. However, the turmoil caused by the explosion caused energy fluctuations, and some ghosts that did not last long enough to disintegrate.
Matthias frowned in the deepest part of the ghost ship, because it was undead, and he didn't have a secret agreement with Titania, so he didn't want to go directly to battle, so he used the scavenger.
But Titania, a pig teammate, really didn't care about himself, and just counterattacked when the Scavenger was contained, and even the ghost ship was included in the attack range.
In this case, of course, Mathias did not want to stay any longer, and he was not the nanny of the Titanian fleet.
Of course, before leaving, he still has a big gift to give to the elves before leaving.
As Matthias chanted a magic spell, the entire ghost ship seemed to resonate, and all the undead on board made a sound like a ghost crying god, and the mere hearing of it had a touching effect.
But what was even more striking was that Matthias stretched out his left hand, and then from under the black robe peeked out a bony arm that shimmered with a glowing green mist.
He stretched out his other hand and swiped it towards his left arm, and the large amount of green gas that lingered on the bones of his left arm spiraled forward as if it had been broken.
Flying a few meters in front of Matthieus, the green gas stopped.
"Hehe, let me create a new gadget for the Scavenger. Matthias whispered.
The green gas began to deform and condense with his voice, and finally condensed into the shape of a cannon with his momentary bad taste, a miserable green cannon, the muzzle of which pointed at the elven fleet in the distance.
"There is also a lack of suitable shells. Matthias muttered to himself.
He coughed, and a cloud of blood-stained something flew out of his mouth, and it fell into the miserable green cannon that had just formed.
As soon as the blood fell, the entire ghost ship shook, and many ghosts threw themselves at it like fish had seen bait, and then they were bound by the miserable green gas.
At this moment, the blood-stained mass swirled, and the ghosts were sucked into it like crumpled paper falling into a shredder.
The blood grew in size, turning into a cannonball-like shape, dark red throughout, but from time to time green would emerge, and the faces of men and women would flash by each green ball, as if it were a window, and there were many souls desperately trying to escape from it, but in the end, none of these ghosts could escape.
"I have named you the Polluter Cannon, and destroy my enemies for me. Matthias finally chanted.
Then the miserable green cannon trembled, and the bloody cannonballs flew out surrounded by a large cloud of miserable green gas, and flew towards the elven fleet.
A large Natureboat was hit by that strange shell from the Polluter's cannon, and blood seeped into the bullet.
The High Elves know that something is wrong, but at this time they are in the midst of each other's entanglement, and they also want to regain their strength. In the end, Yu Yong and Ma Bond fought together.
But it didn't take long for them to learn what trouble the ghost ship was causing them.
Nature's boat fluttered. It was as if a dead tree-man body or a ship's hull made of a tree-man embryo felt some kind of pain.
The hull of the ship has changed from the original emerald green to a miserable green. The elves on the boat pointed in horror to places on the ship that should have been smooth, but now the faces of green veins and ghosts appeared.
The wraiths struggled and writhed on the walls of the ship, but they seemed to be bound inside, but they were still struggling desperately, so that the nimble ship of nature suddenly seemed to come to life, but it did not listen to the control of the elves. Or rather, there is a chaotic force that greatly interferes with the control of the elves.
"Necromancy, there are necromancers in the ghost ship. The elves roared in anger, but they didn't know how to crack the weird necromancy for a moment.
This is the legendary magic exclusive to the demigod Lich Maceius, and it's more powerful than that, the tainted blood is the one that separates a fragment of Macaius' soul inside.
When most of the ship turned green, the breath of the undead became stronger and stronger, and the ship of nature had become as eerie as a graveyard, which made the elves so annoyed that they had to jump ship and leave.
At this time, a huge ball of blood appeared in the hull of the ship, and there was a pair of pitch-black eyes inside. After these eyes appeared, this natural boat was completely out of the control of the elves.
Then I saw that this ship of nature was not under the control of the High Elves. But it moved on its own, and the sail on it swept towards the elven battleship next to it like an arm, and even took the initiative to crash into other elven warships.
"Destroy it, it's already contaminated. The elven mage who had taken the lead shouted as he began to chant his magic, and the other elves attacked him with fire magic.
"Hahaha, it's late. A crack opened in the dark pupils of those eyes, and a mocking sound came out as if the mouth was open.
Then the ship of nature, which had been hit by the cannons of the Tainted, suddenly erected, and went from lying flat to erect like a person, standing up in the water.
And the entire hull is deforming, re-transforming from the shape of a ship to the shape of a giant war tree tree.
This sudden change is not just a restraining effect like the activation of the cable and the ghost just now, but it is really a clear threat.
Whether this ship of nature was a dead body or an embryo of a Treant, it is now being transformed into an undead war tree catalyzed by the power of the Dead Flex and the fragments of the demigod lich's consciousness.
The Undead War Ancient Tree launched an attack on the elves' fleet, and although the elves were also fighting back, the War Ancient Tree was not so easy to destroy, not to mention that there was still the power of the undead.
"Damn the undead!" The elves faced the double flanking of the undead war trees and the distant bombardment, and the ships of nature were sunk by cannonballs, and the ancient trees of the undead war also grabbed a ship of nature and were trying to lift it up.
At this moment, a majestic cry suddenly came from the sky, and a large shadow swept by.
The elves were struggling in despair, and suddenly someone said in surprise: "Our reinforcements are the dragons, the dragons, the dragons are here." ”
At least six dragons flew in the air towards the War Ancient Tree, led by a silver dragon, who spat out an ice-blue breath that froze the Undead War Ancient Tree in one fell swoop, and then the other six dragons spat out flames.
The flames burned the polluted ancient trees of war, and the flames were so fierce that they would not be extinguished even if they came into contact with the sea.
The miserable green gas, the ghost, and finally the fragments of consciousness in the blood did not escape, and they were all destroyed under the burning of the flames.
"Dragons!" said Maceius of the Scavenger, shocked and angry, as he withdrew his connection to the Soul Fragment and allowed the Dragons to destroy it.
If he is willing to support it, it is not impossible to use the ancient tree of the Undead War to fight with these dragons, but this is meaningless, because there is no defeat, there are six dragons in front of the elves who come to help, and the silver dragon has reached the legendary realm, and the other five, two green and three gold, the green dragon is a seventh-order transcendent creature, and the golden dragon is a ninth-order creature.
And if you take a closer look, Titania's fleet is also in huge trouble, and there are seven or eight dragons attacking them under the leadership of a golden dragon elder, and there are two dragons in the legendary realm alone.
No matter how crazy Mathias was, he didn't dare to fight three legendary dragons and more than ten ordinary dragons at the same time, just one legendary dragon was enough for him.
The Scavenger in the smoke immediately sank, and after the silver dragon took the lead in destroying the Ancient Tree of the War of the Dead, it swept its wings and rushed over, and another breath spewed at the Scavenger.
There was an angry roar from the ghost ship beneath the water, but the Scavenger sank faster.
A large mass of ice-blue crystals condensed underneath the sea, but the crystals soon broke, and the ghost ship sank deeper into the water, causing the dragons to lose interest in pursuit, and they flew towards the Titanian battleship.
A few days later, news of the dragons appearing on the North Coast and the West Coast reached Mochizuki Fortress. (To be continued.) )
