Chapter 158: Who's the Prey?
"The other party is asking for communication."
Taling alerted, attracting everyone's attention.
Sandora thought for a moment and decided, "Connect." ”
"Understood."
Taling takes the command and performs the action.
The video communication was quickly connected.
On the huge screen, two acquaintances appeared on the left and right.
They are Vina, the three-point wizard of the Flame and Metal Trading Company, and the "scholar" of the White Tower Alliance.
"Sandora, long time no see."
The "scholar" held a large book in his left hand and waved his right hand to greet him politely.
"Sandora, I didn't expect it, we met again, and in this way."
Wizard Vena finally didn't wear a three-point dress this time, and was still wearing a tight interstellar life support suit.
When he spoke, he also made a hard squeeze motion, and his expression was very fierce.
It seems that it is easy to take down Sandora and her starship.
Shandora sneered, "You think you're going to eat me? ”
The Yunni was left alone.
The two fleets that come from the left and the right are the standard configuration of the Wizarding World Starfleet: one main class battleship, three auxiliary class ships, and one supply ship.
In terms of quantity, with one to ten, there is a huge difference.
However, the configuration of the "Yunni" is at the flagship level.
In terms of combat power, among the many levels of starships of the Sage-class legion, it is second only to the Star Destroyer Fortress.
At the same time, it is not false to face the two main starships.
Even if the opponent has six auxiliary-class warships to cooperate, Sandora is confident that she will not be left behind.
However, the other party came strangely, and it is not clear whether the other party has other support behind it, and the battle situation is unknown.
Moreover, Sandora has not yet figured out how her whereabouts were revealed.
Therefore, he is not prepared to engage head-on, and chooses to move in.
"Cut off communications."
"Full speed ahead."
Sandora ordered one after another.
Taling executes immediately.
The portrait on the screen disappeared and returned to its original state, revealing a real-time image of the starry sky around the Yunni.
One of the three major engines of the "Yunni", the conventional engine is started at full power, and the speed of the battleship accelerates to the speed of light.
The fleets of the Flame and Metal Trading Company and the White Tower Alliance, respectively, are under the command of Wizard Vena and Scholar Sylvano. Under the command of La Torre, Ouroboros pursued.
There is a long distance between the two sides themselves.
"Yunni" travels at the maximum speed of a conventional voyage - the speed of light.
The two fleets would never have been able to catch up with the "Yunni" without turning on the jump engine, or the curvature engine.
However, the jump mode cannot accurately control the distance, and the curvature mode cannot be flexibly adjusted.
Both have their own advantages and disadvantages, and when used for pursuit, they may not be able to block the way of the "Yunni".
To be on the safe side, Wizard Vena and the "scholar" Sylvano discussed and decided to chase after this for a while.
Consume the conventional power reserve of the "Yunni", and then take corresponding actions according to the situation.
"Something is wrong."
In the cockpit of the Yunni, Sandora spoke, as if to say to herself, "How did they know my whereabouts?" ”
Soon, a look of annoyance flashed across Shandora's face, and she didn't let the members of the miniature legion avoid it, and said directly to Taling, "Contact Lady Lisandra." ”
"Understood."
Taling received the order and immediately sent a communication request to the emergency contact, Ms. Lisandra.
On the left side, Link heard the name with a faint look in his eyes.
"Oh, my dear daughter, are you in trouble again?"
Ms. Lisandra appears in the cockpit in the form of a hologram.
She looked around, lingering on Link for half a second before landing on Sandora, opening with an exaggerated tone of stickiness.
Shandora grimaced and asked coldly, "You use me as bait?" ”
Ms. Lisandra frowned, very sad, "Oh, it's so sad that my daughter misunderstands me so much. ”
"Normal!"
Sandora looked at her playful mother, who did her own thing and never cared about other people's opinions, as if she had three black lines on her forehead.
"Okay."
Lisandra responded contrivedly, and immediately restrained her expression and calmed down, "I didn't use you as bait, this is what your third uncle meant." ”
"What do you mean?"
Sandora asked calmly, not immediately blaming.
Compared to her own mother, Shandora undoubtedly trusts her third uncle Forest.
Lisandra replied:
"Didn't he send someone to cast a flame with the Metal Trading Company and the White Tower Alliance?
They now want to retaliate in reciprocal revenge so that they can redeem the captives.
Your third uncle said that instead of passive defense, it is better to sell a flaw.
Just as you were about to continue with that task, he made a move, and let the High Council's subordinate body reveal your whereabouts. ”
Carrying out the tasks issued by the High Council is not simply a mission report.
When to leave, how to get there, and when and where to arrive at the mission location, Sandora all reported in advance.
Do a good job of these reports, and then submit the task report, before and after, before and after, before and after, to be able to complete the task.
Sandora knew that it would not be difficult to use the skills of her third uncle, Frister, to let the institutions under the High Council leak secrets smoothly without arousing suspicion.
The difficulty lies in how to make the interception team sent by the Flame and Metal Trading Company and the White Tower Alliance not a sage-level legion.
There are a lot of games, and it is difficult to describe them in three words.
Sandora didn't think too much about it, but thought about what her third uncle Forest's purpose was.
After thinking for a while, but didn't come up with any clue, Sandora simply asked, "What does the third uncle want to achieve?" ”
"How do I know?"
Lady Lisandra replied as a matter of course, "Even if I knew, why should I tell you?" ”
Sandora gritted her teeth, almost broken by the words.
After easing her emotions, Shandora asked, "How do you think I should deal with it so that I can better cooperate with the third uncle's plan?" ”
"You can deal with it however you want."
Ms. Lisandra's attitude is very indifferent, "As long as you don't die, don't get captured alive, it's fine." ”
"What if I kill them?"
Shandora coldly uttered a murderous remark.
Lady Lisandra did not answer immediately, but looked fixedly at Chandora, who pretended to be calm.
The mother and daughter looked at each other for a long time.
Sandora subconsciously clenched the armrests on both sides of the chair with both hands, her back molars clenched tightly, stubbornly not looking away.
Even if it was just a holographic projection, the gaze of a sixth-level sage would not be easy to bear.
The pressure is like the sea, and it is very heavy.
"Okay."
Ms. Lisandra gave a thumbs up, "This is my daughter." ”
As she spoke, she restrained the coercion in her eyes and solemnly promised: "As long as you can do it, let it go." All the troubles in the follow-up, your third uncle can definitely stop it! ”
"Hmm."
Sandora calmly responded, and then manually cut off the communication.
The whole person leaned back, took a few deep breaths, and gradually recovered from the tension of the heartstrings that had previously looked at each other.
After recovering for a while, and making sure that her voice did not tremble, Sandora spoke: "Now let's have a short meeting, let's discuss what we should do if we want to fight back." ”
The members of the miniature legion turned their chairs in unison, facing Shandora as she sat in the captain's seat.
For a while, no one took the lead in speaking.
"Link, you say."
Since no one spoke, Sandora called out, and the first one was Link.
"I haven't mastered the command ability of interstellar operations for the time being, so I won't mislead you."
Link told the truth, did not act recklessly, and made random moves.
In both the junior and senior colleges, whether it was the courses arranged by the academy or the materials he consulted, Link had hardly ever been involved in interstellar warfare.
After coming to the main campus of the academy for further study, Link took a course in strategic and tactical studies.
Two months later, the course has only taken four classes, and the content is still stuck in the area of otherworldly exploration, raids behind enemy lines, and forced landings.
The content of interstellar warfare will have to wait a while before it will be discussed.
There is no shame in admitting your shortcomings.
"I don't understand it even more."
Jasmine, who was sitting next to Link, didn't wait for Sandora to take a roll call, and then made a statement.
Lannie has just been promoted to a second-level wizard and has not officially started her training, so the situation is not much different from Link and Jasmine.
Tiffany and Fried are still at the level of first-level wizards, not to mention speaking and discussing, whether they can strictly implement the instructions of interstellar warfare is a question.
The 6 children of the big family of the academy headquarters have been second-level wizards for several years, and they are no strangers to the command of interstellar operations.
However, in the past, it was all petty fights and jokes.
As it is now, the slightest mistake is life-threatening.
One by one, they were cautious in their words and deeds, and they didn't dare to speak casually.
Seeing this, Sandora suddenly felt the pressure on her shoulders become even greater.
A miniature legion of only 12 people, including herself, is so difficult to command.
Isn't it even more difficult for a sage-level legion composed of hundreds of wizards?
"Hmm......"
Shandora pondered for a moment, not forcing the members to speak, but instead ordered Taling, "Draw up two sets of plans and evaluate the feasibility." First, go full speed and get rid of the pursuit; Second, counterattack on the spot and annihilate the enemy. ”
"Understood."
Taling receives the command.
Two sets of solutions were quickly submitted, presented on a large screen and on a small screen with each operation bit.
Link, like the others, carefully read through the two sets of plans that Taling had drawn up.
The first set starts the curvature engine at full power, enters the curvature marching mode, and quickly arrives at the mission world.
Feasibility 95.999%;
The second set is to use the powerful attack power of the "Yunni" to concentrate fire on one of the fleets, and strive to defeat or even annihilate it in one fell swoop;
Then take advantage of the high mobility of the "Yunni" and maneuver with another fleet and wait for the "Yunni" attack system to cool down.
The feasibility is 65.45%.
Link didn't know what model Taling was based on.
Inferring from the inspiration that he can already send and receive freely, and the sense of misfortune and misfortune that bursts out, the accuracy rate is still very high.
So, Link is now curious about what the specific content of the attack scheme that Taling did not list.
This involves the detailed configuration of the Yunni.
The plan and feasibility estimate drawn up by Taling can only be used as a reference and cannot be used directly.
This common sense, Sandora still has.
At this time, the situation is good, it is not critical, and there is no need to make a decision in a hurry.
With her chin in her right hand, Sandora began to take a long test.
In the starry sky.
Lady Lisandra stood alone and stopped the two sage-level legions of the Flame and Metal Trading Company and the White Tower Alliance.
A moment later, two sixth-level sages appeared in front of Lady Lisandra.
The three confronted each other.
With one against two, Ms. Lisandra struggled a little, but she still did not lose momentum.
A vacuum cannot directly transmit sound.
As a sixth-level sage, how could he not even be able to solve this little trouble?
Lady Lisandra's voice reached the ears of the two sixth-level sages: "This path is not working, please go back." ”
The sixth-level sage of the Flame and Metal Trading Company snorted, "You Ruiwo Soth Academy is really too domineering! If I recall my own fleet, you have to take care of it too? ”
The sixth-level sage of the White Tower Alliance said indifferently: "It's useless to talk too much, let's just start fighting." ”
Lady Lisandra didn't panic at all and smiled, "Wait a minute, someone else will come to negotiate with you." ”
"Huh?"
The two sixth-level sages frowned in unison.
After a while, Dean Forrest's figure quietly appeared and greeted him warmly: "Long time no see, you two." ”
"Humph!"
The two sixth-level sages who had both suffered losses under Dean Forest, snorted coldly in unison, not wanting to deal with it.
Dean Frist didn't think it was wrong, and smiled and said to himself:
"Yes, I admit it, I asked my second sister to tamper with the perception of the commanders of those two fleets.
They got off course, thinking that their mission was to hunt down my niece's 'Yunni'.
It is very bad to bully the small with the big.
I sincerely apologize. ”
After a pause, Dean Forest's words changed: "But the matter has come to this point, since the whereabouts of the two have been known, the revenge must not be continued." Why don't we three find another way to resolve the dispute? ”
"In what way?"
The people of the Flame and Metal Trading Company, whether they are apprentices, official wizards, or sages, regardless of their primitive personalities, are prone to irritability in speech and action, but they are not brainy.
This sixth-level sage didn't even think about whether there was fraud in it, so he was directly moved and asked.
The sixth-level sage of the White Tower Alliance knew the temperament of his allies very well, and after the other party spoke out, he had no choice but to hold back his words.
According to his heart, he didn't want things to fall into Forest. Diomande's rhythm goes.
What is the alternative way to resolve disputes?
That's a nice thing to say.
Take advantage of it in a different way!
Dean Frist glanced at the sixth-level sage of the White Tower Alliance, whose expression looked a bit like that of constipation, and smiled secretly in his heart.
Who to choose as an ally is bad?
I chose Flame, which has more or less problematic heads, to be an ally with a metal trading company.
It's no wonder that the White Tower Alliance has become more and more perverted in recent years.
With enthusiasm on his face, Dean Frist smiled:
"Didn't you complain that the last game ended ridiculously?
Now the opportunity has come, two fleets are besieging a battleship.
On the scene, the two of you have a far advantage.
Let's see how this battle turned out.
Whether we cheated in the last game, or is it the strength of your new generation?
If you win, I'll send them back myself.
If you lose, go back the way you came, and then ransom the captives with magic stones and supplies.
How? ”
"Yes, that's it."
When the words fell, the sixth-level sage of the Flame and Metal Trading Company immediately agreed.
The sixth-level sage of the White Tower Alliance faintly put on a mask of pain.
In other words, you are already a sixth-level sage, and it is not difficult to control your irritable temper.
Why wouldn't you?
Okay now, have you fallen into the trap of this guy Forest?
"To sign a contract or not?"
It would have been advisable for Frist to strike while the iron was hot and to facilitate the matter earlier.
"No."
The sixth-level sage of the Flame and Metal Trading Company replied decisively, "What's the use of signing that?" ”
The sixth-level sage of the White Tower Alliance finally couldn't keep his composure, made amends, and said, "Let's sign one." After the start of the battle, the three countries are not allowed to provide assistance to their own warships or fleets in any way. ”
"No problem."
Dean Forrester Lisso agreed.
The sixth-level sage of the Flame and Metal Trading Company pursed his lips and did not object.
A blank contract made by the ninth-level Great Sage of the True Spirit Wizard was taken out by Dean Forest.
The blank contract is for two people to check and write the binding content.
"And get started?"
After signing the contract and achieving the goal, Dean Forester smiled and asked for advice.
"Let's get started, let's go back and rest."
The sixth-level sage of the Flame and Metal Trading Company said impatiently, "It's a waste of time. ”
The sixth-level sage of the White Tower Alliance shook his head and sighed lightly: "Let's start, let me see your back hand." ”
Frist smiled even more: "Backhand? Where is the backhand? There's Link. Grande is here, and his strength alone can blow up two fleets. ”
When the sixth-level sage of the Flame and Metal Trading Company heard this, he immediately glared at Dean Forrest:
"Didn't you say it sooner?" (End of chapter)
