Unlike Iona, who looked like a ship without anything, vampires were much livelier as they were both mental models.
It was just that this little girl's personality really made people not dare to compliment her.
At first, Vampire gave Fangzheng the impression of a naughty child, but later he found that she was actually a proud young lady. But Fangzheng did not mind. To be honest, he had seen a lot of proud characters like her. Back in Shana's world, didn't he teach Shana to be obedient?
Oh, come to think of it, the voice of this little girl called Vampire was quite similar to Shana's. Could it be that all proud lolis have the same voice?
Although the little fellow's temper wasn't very good, she was quite capable. Although this Dragon-class battleship had almost no combat power, it had a rather strange ability – the ability to absorb the enemy's energy!
Fangzheng had seen this young lady rush up to the Seamist patrol ship, stick her face to it, and activate the energy plundering device to suck the enemy's energy dry. In the meantime, the patrol cruiser poured all its firepower onto the vampire. In the end, the young lady relied on the power she absorbed from the vampire to not even break her shield.... When the pitiful patrol cruiser was completely drained dry and could no longer resist, Fangzheng could not bear to watch any longer and sent it to its death with a torpedo.
But although Vampire's ability was very strong, it was not enough to face the enemy head-on. Apart from absorbing energy, she did not even have basic weapons and equipment. She only had a few drones to fill in the gaps. Therefore, Fangzheng assigned Vampire to assist Iona, and to absorb the enemy's energy while the enemy was blocking Iona's torpedo bombardment. Vampire's speed happened to be very suitable for this kind of ambush, but unfortunately, this was only the beginning. In Fangzheng's opinion, the vampires were only auxiliary ships at present. If he were to use a party as an example, they would be wizards with special debuffs. Right now, a party with only wizards and archers was definitely not enough. At the very least, they would need a tanky MT, a frontline DPS and a healer to form a five-man party. In other words … they would at least need a battleship and a heavy-duty cruiser.
But it was a pity that it wasn't an easy task at the moment.
As for the reason …
"Who would have thought that even the Sea Mists would band together."
Looking at the signal on the radar, Fangzheng couldn't help but sigh. According to the radar, there were ten Chang Liang class light cruisers, five You Liang class light cruisers, and one Gao Gao class heavy cruiser in front of them. They were in a patrolling formation and were wandering around. However...
"Usually, would the Sea Mist gather like this? Iona? "
"Very few."
Upon hearing Fangzheng's question, Iona shook her head.
"The Sea Mist usually acts on their own. Unless they receive an order, they almost never gather together."
"An order … Did we hit them too hard earlier?"
Looking at the screen in front of him, Fangzheng couldn't help but complain. But he didn't expect that his words would inadvertently hit the truth.
Because Fangzheng's goal was to clear the dungeon as soon as possible and then farm for map materials, he had been mobilizing Iona and the vampires to attack all the Sea Mist warships he encountered in the past few days. Although the Sea Mists were reckless, they were no fools. When they sensed that the situation was not right, they would naturally choose to band together for warmth.
"And this is obviously an anti-air formation …."
"What should we do? Master? "
Looking at the scene in front of her, Nimf also frowned. In the past, their targets were at most five ships in a group, but now, the other party had formed an anti-air formation of 15 warships. This was really not easy to deal with.
"Why don't I use drones to harass them? Those stupid fellows will definitely explode because of this! "
At this time, the vampires also interjected and proudly stated their plan. But soon, Fangzheng shook his head.
"You only have 15 drones. It's hard to say what you can achieve, but if the drones are sunk …. Do you think repairing them doesn't cost money?"
Fangzheng had a limited amount of furniture coins in his hands!
By the way, you're just a destroyer, why are you installing drones!?
"There's no other way. It's a bit wasteful, but that's all I can do."
With that thought in mind, Fangzheng gave an order.
"Iona, aim at the target in front and launch an attack. Make sure to sink it after a round of attacks. Our firing range is much longer than the other party's, so let's use this to kite them! After that, we'll see how the other party reacts and decide the next battle plan. Vampires, stand by. Remember, don't move unless you're told to. "
"Got it."
Although a little unhappy, the vampires nodded obediently.
"Target locked."
"Torpedo launch!"
"— — — — —!"
Following Fangzheng's order, the Deep-level Hidden Bomb hidden in the clouds in the sky instantly appeared. Dozens of torpedoes whizzed out and flew towards the target in the distance.
"Target action!"
Shortly after the torpedoes were launched, the radar screen showed that the other party seemed to have noticed the attack. They began to turn around quickly. At the same time, countless artillery fire flew into the sky, and the whistling missiles formed an impenetrable anti-aircraft firepower net. In just a few seconds, the screen in front of Fangzheng showed that almost two-thirds of the torpedoes had been destroyed. Although the remaining ones hit the enemy directly, they did not cause too much damage.
"Strength in numbers. This is really troublesome …."
Seeing that his attack had failed, Fangzheng frowned. Iona was silent for a moment. She looked quietly at Fangzheng, who was sitting next to her.
"Master, what should we do?"
"Load the electronic bombs, then launch the torpedoes again in two rounds. Fire the electronic bombs in between!"
"Yes!"
Following Fangzheng's order, Iona quickly began the second round of reloading, and another round of torpedoes was launched. Four electronic bombs followed closely behind, flying into the distance while hidden in the smoke of the torpedo launch.
This time, the well-prepared Sea Mist certainly would not let Fangzheng's trick succeed so easily. Soon, a second wave of anti-aircraft barrage was launched to meet the torpedoes. The torpedoes were obviously unable to withstand such intense firepower alone. They soon turned into big fireworks and dissipated in the air.
But then, four strange shadows emerged from the smoke of the explosion and continued to rush towards the target. This time, they were lucky. Maybe it was because Sea Mist had temporarily run out of ammunition, or maybe it was because the previous explosion had caused Sea Mist's cruisers to have no time to react, so the four bombs whistled past them and exploded quickly, turning into several blue halos that spread in all directions.
"— — — —!!"
The Sea Mist warships that were shrouded by the blue halos instantly began to tremble. Countless protective flashes appeared on their ships, and then they began to weaken rapidly. At the same time, the second wave of torpedo attacks quickly arrived!
"Boom!!!"
This time, the Klein force field that the Sea Fog was so proud of was no longer able to help them escape the calamity. Under the bombardment of the Erosion torpedoes, the three Sea Fog light cruisers that bore the brunt of the attack directly exploded. The remaining ships also suffered huge damage and began to retreat rapidly.
"That's really troublesome."
Seeing that the Sea Mist warships not only did not pursue as he had expected, but also began to retreat in an attempt to retreat, Fangzheng could not help but frown. He was not the navy on the ground. If it were them, they would probably be more than happy for Sea Mist to retreat. But Fangzheng had a mission target. He was still waiting to clear the level to farm materials!
If there was an MT to attract the firepower, he would just rush forward.
But now …
"Iona, start shooting again."
