Chapter 82: Dying and struggling, the blood flag is unfurled
By the time the first salvo fell, the morale of the entire Redbeard fleet had already begun to collapse rapidly.
The most important thing in the victory of the battle line is to be more obedient to the command than the other side, to fight bravely, and success or failure lies in persistence.
When you can't hold on, that's the beginning of complete defeat!
Most of them no longer care about counterattacking, and they are all busy plugging the leaks in the battleship.
"Quick, plank, bring the plank."
"The lower cannon doors are also leaking.
The twist is used up, and the carpenter is on it. ”
Whether it is a corsair or a warship, the work of "plugging holes" in artillery battles is indispensable.
When the battle reaches this point, and the hull of the ship located near the waterline is hit, even the carpenter on board will be turned into a combat post.
They need to bring their own tools, rush to the carpentry tunnel inside the hull as soon as possible, and then quickly nail the planks or lead plates to the loopholes.
"And what is that?"
The carpenter, who was plugging the leak near the waterline, rubbed his eyes.
Through the holes in the water the size of a human head, he saw that the sea outside had suddenly turned red as if it were burning.
After looking closely, I found that it was a dense school of fish, ten, hundred, thousand, and I couldn't count them for a while.
At the beginning, all the crew members had witnessed the tragic situation of Redbeard being blown up into the sky by a group of fish bombs.
Where do you still not know what this thing is?
"Oh no——!"
The carpenter wasn't the only one screaming in horror.
The pirates on the ship, who had just been congratulating themselves on having survived another salvo, had their eyes wide and let out a hoarse "ho-ho-ho" sound from the depths of their throats.
Even the screams couldn't be heard.
"Don't you think, the same trick, don't try to defeat me a second time!"
Redbeard, who had been taken away half of his body by another shell, had just recovered when his eyes widened with rage.
Take out a yellow-green potion bottle from the chest kept by the first mate, Harvey, the jackal.
The biggest problem with the sequence system is that there are no secrets, and moves that have been used once are easy to target.
When he was first set on fire by a gunpowder artist, Redbeard couldn't even protect himself, let alone others.
But now that he has decided to match, how can he not think of a way to prepare early?
【Dragon Dung Elixir】:
"It's not from forbidden knowledge, it's a secondary invention of the wilderness sequence [adventurers].
It is said that it was originally before the Silver Age, when the dragon species was still everywhere, the supernatural power was not systematic, and the adventurer was not a sequence class.
Dragon dung is already often used by them to intimidate all kinds of beasts.
Although let's not talk about pure-bloods now, even various subspecies carrying dragon blood are extremely rare.
The only way to do this is to make a new potion from the dung of all kinds of ferocious beasts.
In addition to [Dragon Dung Elixir], he also got a second name - [Golden Juice Elixir].
This is unpopular on the coast of the Old World, but on overseas routes, high-quality dragon dung potions are a must.
It can scare off all kinds of elusive sea monsters, and at the very least, it can also force them out of the water, and fight for a head-on battle for surface ships. ”
Kiss!
The moment the cork was opened, the strong pungent smell permeated the air, so that Byron, who was standing high on the mast, couldn't help but cover his nose.
The liquid dissolves quickly when poured into the water, staining the dark waters of the surrounding sea an indescribable yellow-green.
The school of crimson fish, which had been rushing straight under the control of Violet's bone whistle, immediately quickly turned around the [Nemesis] as if they had encountered a natural enemy.
As for other pirate ships nearby?
Dead teammates don't kill themselves, how can Redbeard at this time care about the lives of others?
Most of the other pirates around him obviously did not make such targeted preparations, while shouting: "Full rudder, avoid" at the same time.
While activating the abilities of their respective third-order transcendentals to resist the fish.
"Cemetery Sequence Proverbs: Give all things rest!"
Fear Reiki!
"The motto of the temple sequence (various artists): Mankind can accomplish great things."
Fantasy heart sounds!
“”
The transcendent system of the Ladder of Glory believes that the human race is supreme and glory is to the collective.
The entire human society, religions, states, nations, guilds, and associations, from top to bottom, have packed all organizations into a tight net.
Theocracy! The kingship is in the middle! All industries are below!
Every profession is a necessary part of the functioning of society.
As long as you reach the middle order, your status is that of a middle-level person in the organization, and you can eat anywhere.
In the pirate group, he is a great pirate who controls an independent fleet, and in the knight group, he is a knight captain who can command a team of knights.
It will not fall to the bottom all of a sudden just because it has changed a territory, and it needs to be restarted and repeated.
As a result, they have a sufficiently stable anchor.
Extraordinary powers are truly manifested in them, and core abilities at the system or tactical level appear.
In particular, Ferdinand (Chapter 38), the conductor who pilots the Beast Cage, is the most capable in this situation.
Holding an old cast-iron camel bell used by an ancient caravan.
Shake it, and the leading fish begin to slow down; Shake them twice, and their bodies stiffen on the surface of the sea; Shake it three times, and some of the fish even start to turn around.
This is a series of systematic abilities of the third-order beast trainer, [Group Monster Immobilization] and [Group Monster Domination].
But his strength alone could not control the entire battlefield that spanned several kilometers.
Just when the school of fish is about to go backwards.
Violet, who knows all opponents' professions and has no surprise on her face.
Slowly stretched out his slender white right hand and snapped his fingers at the fish that were already very close to the enemy ship.
Boom——!!!
Orange-red flames burst into the sky like volcanic eruptions, and fiery shockwaves sent the heavenly sea water into the sky.
It was pouring rain over the entire battlefield.
The sea boiled, as if the entire atrium was shaking violently in the aftermath of the explosion.
The enemy ships that were being taken care of were suddenly thrown out of the water in a huge underwater shock wave.
One of them fell back into the sea with a bang, almost falling apart on the spot, and countless pirates were thrown into the raging waves.
He drowned alive in syncope.
At this point, the morale of the fleet completely collapsed, and those who survived immediately turned around and ran.
In fact, Redbeard's actions play into the hearts of Violet and Byron.
The fragile alliance that this side has always maintained because of interests has been knocked out by this wave of "greatest art", and it can no longer take care of any interests.
They believed that as long as they escaped, it would definitely not be them who would be pursued by the Wanmin fleet with all their might.
"Miss Violet, we are withdrawing from the Overseer race, no longer supporting Edward the Redbeard, and giving up all the benefits of Ironanchor Bay!"
"Redbeard's collusion with the kingdom is a heinous crime, and I, [Butcher Bird], declare that I will draw a line with him, and I will have nothing to do with him again, and I will support Her Royal Highness the princess from now on."
"Me too."
The treacherous pirates showed weakness one after another, and after dropping a word, they fled for their lives without justification.
Byron and Violet weren't prepared to kill them all.
First, if Redbeard's henchmen are all dead, who will be the backing of the 'natural disaster' who attacks from his dreams?
Second, it's because of poverty!
To fight a war is to fight for money.
[Flame Kiss] This alchemy recipe is powerful and maneuverable, and the only drawback is that it is expensive.
Cultivating these thousands of fish-hull bombs is more expensive than deploying dozens of large-caliber guns, and is almost equivalent to the same weight of silver.
Violet also didn't have enough money to launch a second wave of attacks.
Byron looked at the great pirates who had completely retreated in the hard-fought fleet battle.
With a gleam in his eyes, a huge battle as a commander that stirred up the storm had obviously made great strides in his transcendent path.
The Golden Yuan sequence can be promoted quickly as long as you have money (Chapter 13), and [Storm Knight] and other sequences are no exception.
"Resources" refers not only to medicines, spices, and knowledge, but also to the practice of this kind of professional path.
Even if Lancaster hadn't died yet, it was unlikely that Wait would have put this level of command of the Great War in the hands of a fledgling novice.
"It is another great victory of the battle line against the traditional methods of warfare.
Perhaps limited by the power of artillery, the battle line is not yet the mainstream of warfare.
But in the future, the main battle line will not be released, and it will be the ultimate gamble that will determine the fortunes of the country and the maritime hegemony for the next tens or hundreds of years.
Although even in the entire history of navigation in my previous life, this kind of battle of national fortune is rare.
But the number of warships in various countries is already the greatest deterrent in itself.
More is strong, big is beautiful, more and bigger is the overlord of the sea!
Unfortunately, I don't know when I will have the opportunity to try my skills again next time. ”
If it weren't for his lack of spirituality, the "storm" he had just mastered would have been enough to serve as a promotion ceremony for a [Storm Knight] impact sequence.
Then.
The Redbeard fleet lost its deterrent power, and the pirate ships of the petty pirates in the outer privateer fleet also scattered.
The collective coffin of the Heroic Spirit immediately re-encircled the lonely Nemesis.
Byron returned command of the battlefield to Violet, a true third-order craftsman.
"Raise the blood flag, leave no one behind!"
"A tooth for a tooth, blood for a blood!"
"Roaring ——!"
