The troops assembled by Feuernor and his lieutenant Yakin met in the city, and then headed east, straight for the dock that connected to the east gate, with iron bullets whizzing along the way.

However, after the initial panic, the High Elves in Mochizuki City also took action.

Any adult high elf in the Emerald Continent is a natural warrior, even if it is a minor, depending on its age, it also has a certain combat power, they can be said to be close to the whole people, except for the old elves who are really young or have reached the final stage of their lives, and they can't even move.

At first, they were stunned by the rain of iron bullets, and in addition to gathering their troops separately, Feanor and Yakin also gave a militia mobilization order to the elven residents of the city who had not joined the official guard.

As long as there is an order and organization, the high elves in Mochizuki City will not panic as much as just now, but will start to assemble according to Feuernor's orders.

They will even organize other creatures in Mochizuki City by the way, as happened in Fiji City.

The difference is that Fiji City, neither in size nor in terms of prosperity, can compare to the pearl of the East Coast.

The number of High Elves in Fiji City is only more than 20,000, and the total number of inhabitants is less than 50,000, while the number of High Elves in Mochizuki City alone is comparable to the total population of Peiji City, if you count the number of other residents or intelligent beings who temporarily live here, the population here is more than 100,000, and there are two nearby Centaur tribes with a population of more than 150,000 each that can be used as reinforcements.

Braving the rain of cannonballs, Feerno and Yakin rushed to the docks, where they saw the huge fleet lined up in battle lines in the distant sea.

It was from there that the rumbling of artillery came from, and black shells flew from at least 1,500 meters away.

"Shoot. Yakin angrily organized the elven archers to fight back.

Thousands of ironwood arrows shot at the ship with the fury of the elves, and the arrows hit a number of flying cannonballs along the way.

The cannonballs were hit by the arrows, and their speed was slowed down to varying degrees, some of them fell into the sea with the arrows, and some of them received less impact. Still flying, but the strength is not enough, and the elves can easily dodge.

But instead of joy, the High Elves were embarrassed and angry.

They have always been proud of their archery skills, and it takes at least dozens of arrows to hit a cannonball together to be effective.

Yajin didn't dare to slack off, and gestured skillfully. Command the elves to fight back.

The elven archers immediately split into several teams to shoot, one team still shooting a rain of arrows and crashing into the air as before, the second team followed the first team with sharp arrows, and the third team did the same.

In this way, after the ironwood arrows shot by the first team of elven archers were forced into a blank space in the flying barrage, the ironwood arrows of the second and third teams of elven archers took advantage of the gap in the shelling to shoot at the ships in the distance.

However, the distance was too far away, and only a few elven archers' ironwood arrows hit the ship, and most of the arrows fell into the water a few hundred meters away from the ship.

With a clang, an arrow passed through the porthole. It was slanted in front of Perseus, Bethoff and others, and the tail of the arrow still shook for a while.

"To be able to shoot so far, it is worthy of being known as the most archery nation. Bethoff picked up the shaft of the arrow, pulled it out, and couldn't help but admire.

"It's useless, our artillery strike is farther than their bows and arrows, and only a handful of the High Elves can shoot that far. Even if they all shot so far, it would be useless, after such a long distance. The power of the arrows shot has weakened a lot, at this distance. At best, it's like ordinary people shooting at a ship, they can't penetrate the hull of the ship. Perseus said calmly, "And we also have one of the biggest advantages, as long as we have cannonballs, we can shell all the time, although the High Elves are fifth-order creatures. But they are also tired and cannot shoot all the time. ”

Bethoff nodded, pinching the ironwood arrows fired by the High Elves, and sure enough, they were as hard as iron.

"Then the only thing they have to do is to send a fleet to attack us at sea, hoping that when the distance becomes closer. Their archery can cause us problems. ”

"Well, I guess it will be a bit of a hassle then. Perseus agreed, "Their arrows are more nimble than our guns." ”――

At the docks of Mochizuki City, after the High Elves fought back two rounds to no avail, the Elven Archers began to give their bows and arrows a spell effect when they shot ironwood arrows.

For a while, the spells on the dock flashed, and the arrows were added with spells such as levitation and cloud wings, so that the arrows could shoot farther, fly faster, and stay in the air longer. Weapon energy means that when the arrow is fired, the elf can follow the arrow with its own fighting spirit or a magical energy, and only explode after hitting the target, which is equivalent to suddenly "growing" out after the end of the shooting into the creature's body, which will cause greater trauma; When Adamantite Gold enters the body, it will coagulate into fine metal shavings when mixed with blood, and if it gathers too much, it will clog blood vessels and even stab the heart in reverse.

After the spell effect was blessed, the High Elves performed an archery that stunned the sailors of the fleets in the distance, and most of them were able to shoot ironwood arrows into the ships of the Terran ships.

However, even if it was shot, it was only a little stronger than Perseus expected, and it could shoot deep into the ship's wooden hull, and some powerful arrows could even penetrate weak spots, half-inserting between the layers of wood.

But that's all there is to it, and it doesn't really hurt much to shock the fleet.

Feerno was also quick to discover the fact that if they had been firing from the shore, the enemy's artillery range would be higher than that of the High Elves' average marksman.

There is also an even worse place, that is, this kind of high-intensity shooting has been maintained, even the elven archer with amazing archery skills can not bear it for a long time, and the other party's shelling seems to be non-human.

"Jakin, is the Natureboat ready?" Feuerno shouted.

"Alright, sir. Yakin replied.

Mochizuki City is a port city on the east coast, where there was originally an elven cruiser, due to the undead attack on the west coast, the elven court transferred some troops, not only the guards of Mochizuki City, but also some of the natural boats were also sent to search the sea and islands over there.

In the face of the enemy's shelling, Feuerno had decided that he had to go to sea to fight, otherwise it was not the way to stick to the docks.

After a few screams, the cannonballs coming from the sea became dense again, and the arrows of the High Elves could not be completely blocked, and the iron bullets that slipped through the net blossomed in the elven crowd, and a ricochet killed one on the spot, and when it bounced again, fortunately, the people around the deceased jumped away in time.

Although the rate of fire of the cannonballs is amazing, the elves can't dodge only the first damage, and the second bounce damage has eased a lot, and the physical strength and reaction speed of the high elves far exceed those of low-level creatures, and they are becoming more skilled in dodging.

But if you encounter that kind of flowering bomb, there is no way, this kind of cannonball does not rely on a second bounce to hurt people after smashing on the ground, but explodes, and the resulting fragments can only be completely prevented by high-level defense magic.

After dodging, returning fire, and dealing with this round of attacks, several natural boats finally sailed out of the inner harbor.

The High Elves' Natureboat is almost the best sailing ship, but it can be quite a hassle to build.

The most troublesome thing is the materials, and the materials used to build the Natureboat are not available anywhere else, because they are from the Treants.

To be precise, there are two types, one is the ancient treemen who are about to die, voluntarily donate their bodies to the High Elves, and at the last moment of their lives, they transform their bodies into the rough outline of the ship in the magic ship pool of the High Elves, and then be cast by the elf craftsmen and born.

However, this category is becoming less and less, as Her Majesty Altanis, the Corolla of Light, has stopped this practice, believing that even if the dying Treant is of its own free will, it is cruel because life is still present when the Treant is transformed.

Not all of the High Elves thought the same way as Altanis, but they could understand their Majesty, because the Elven Empress had grown up in the Blue Mountains and trees before she came of age, before she survived the battle for the throne, and she was good friends with the Tree People, and the relationship was far better than that of other Elf Kings.

Another method is to use the remains of tree embryos that have not succeeded in turning into treants.

In the ancient forest, under the influence of the will of the plane, there will always be some trees that have the opportunity to become a treeman, but not everyone can succeed, if this is considered the fertility of the treeman, then the fertility rate of the treeman is lower than that of the high elves, but their lifespan is longer than that of the elves, and a thousand years is usually just the life of an ordinary person among them, and five hundred years is just a teenager.

And those failed trees, some of them will die, and after Altanis asked to stop making nature boats from the remains of dying tree men, the High Elves can only make these failed tree embryos.

When the Nature's Boat is generated, it will automatically shape into the shape most suitable for sea navigation in the boat pool under the influence of natural magic, and its structure will be integrated and activated.

Integration means that because it is made from the remains of a tree man or tree embryo, and with the guidance of natural magic, the basic structure of the ship is all integrated, and it directly "grows" into a whole ship.

Activation is a special feature that no other ship has, that is, if it is wounded at sea or in battle, as long as it is not completely destroyed, the activation of the Nature's Boat will automatically grow.

To put it simply, if you make a hole in the shell of the Nature's Boat, it will grow on its own after a while. (To be continued.) )
