The Sword of God pierced through the heavens, bringing civilization and the origin of war.
Order wasn't blindly obedient. Resistance and struggle were also important.
The first to bear the brunt was the most famous first-class battleship of the Country of Saint, which was also the flagship of the First Fleet — God's Blessing. It was 80 meters long and 35 meters wide. It looked like a dagger that was placed horizontally in the air with a slight dent in it.
There were a total of 140 magic cannons on both sides of the silver-white hull. However, that wasn't the main point. The most distinctive feature of the God's Blessing was its charging bow. Unlike other floating magic warships, although the God's Blessing was a flagship, it was famous for its close-range attacks. The bow of the ship was basically a flat blade. In battle, the most common thing this warship did was to charge at the enemy warship and stab its bow into the enemy's hull like a dagger. Then, the holy knights would charge forward and engage in close combat.
This warship was considered a rather legendary warship in the Country of Saint. The original concept of its construction was mainly because the magic warship construction technology of the Country of Saint was relatively backward at that time. They couldn't compare to the long-range firepower of the magic warships of other countries. However, on the other hand, due to the blessing of the Goddess, the defense of the Country of Saint's warships was generally very high.
Under such circumstances, facing the threat of the magic warships of other countries, the Country of Saint simply did the opposite and completely abandoned the advantage of long-range firepower in the air. Instead, they focused their power on the defense and speed of the warships. This allowed these warships to charge into the enemy's formation as soon as the battle began.
Back then, the Country of Saint had built 15 warships of this type. However, after the war ended, only three were left in good condition. Two of them were decommissioned, and only the God's Blessing joined the First Fleet as a flagship after being modified. It symbolized the protection of the Goddess and the sharp blade that represented the wrath of the Goddess, as well as the indomitable will of the Country of Saint.
The sword blessed by God would advance without retreat.
Following closely behind the God's Blessing were 30 Holy Shield Battleships. They were about 40 meters long, and they were the most common battleships on this continent. Compared to the God's Blessing, these Holy Shield Battleships looked more like silver leaves. Each of these battleships had 80 magic cannons. The Country of Saint's battleships focused on dexterity. Due to the Holy Protection that could increase their defense, their battleships were more flexible and maneuverable.
At this moment, the fleet was like a flock of white birds, gracefully and lightly sailing towards the port.
"They're here!!"
Seeing this scene, Ogland couldn't help but feel excited. She is also a member of the Country of Saint. Seeing such a huge fleet appear in front of her, Ogland was quite proud and excited.
"Dong! Dong!!! "
But at this moment, as though to destroy this wonderful atmosphere, a loud war drum sounded. Ogland couldn't help but pucker her brows. She turned around and her expression changed.
Another fleet had arrived at the side of the first fleet. They were entirely red. Even without looking at the rugged hull, the image of a red dragon baring its fangs and claws on the sails was enough to explain the origin of these battleships.
The Country of Fire's Brahr Seventh Fleet.
Compared to the Country of Saint's elegance and splendor, the Country of Fire's battleships took on a completely different style. The bow of their battleships, without exception, was a roaring dragon with its mouth open, paired with the unique two-wing sails of the Country of Fire's battleships. From afar, it was as if these battleships were living red dragons.
The largest among them was the flagship of the Seventh Fleet, the Flame Dragon. Its length was similar to the God's Blessing, but its design concept was completely different. This battleship was equipped with a total of 200 magic cannons. Its concept was to completely tear all enemies reflected in its field of vision into pieces. As it turned out, almost no battleship could withstand a round of bombardment from the Flame Dragon.
Of course, perhaps only the God's Blessing could go against it.
In an instant, the atmosphere became a little strange. In front of the port, the Country of Saint's fleet and the Country of Fire's fleet slowly advanced, gradually forming a stalemate. This scene made the representatives of the various forces widen their eyes, not knowing what to say. Grand Knight Aster and Lieutenant General John also had smiles on their faces as though they didn't see what was happening in front of them. They just quietly looked at each other.
Ugh … This is so troublesome ….
Looking at this scene, Ogland's forehead was full of sweat. She could see that both fleets were advancing towards the port at the same time, and they had no intention of backing down. Obviously, although both sides still maintained a friendly atmosphere on the surface, their intention of fighting each other was already apparent.
Not only that …
"Look, what's that?"
Just as both sides were about to enter the channel, a noble standing in front of the glass window suddenly pointed outside and shouted. At this moment, everyone was surprised to see that behind the Country of Fire's fleet, there was another fleet!
The number of battleships in this fleet was similar to the previous two fleets, but the flagship of this fleet was very eye-catching.
Because it was too big!
From afar, this battleship was almost 150 meters long. This was practically the largest battleship at present!
Of course, judging from its speed, perhaps it was due to its large size that it was not very agile, but one had to admit that seeing such a behemoth flying in the sky would bring great shock to anyone.
As for which country this battleship came from, one only needed to look at the pattern of a scale and a gold coin on it to get the answer.
"This is the latest battleship we've jointly developed with the Karon Kingdom."
At this moment, Lieutenant General John also seized the opportunity to join the conversation with a smile.
"We call it the Forward … Advancing with indomitable will, capable of crushing any enemy that stands in its way. How about it? It's a beautiful name, isn't it?"
Those damn nouveau riche!
Ogland snorted softly when she heard Lieutenant General John's words. So what if you're rich? You can do whatever you want just because you're rich? Damn it … That's why I can't stand the smug faces of Karon and the other fatties!
Of course, strictly speaking, this battleship also had many flaws in Ogland's view. For example, it was too big and could be easily hit, or too slow, making it difficult for it to attack flexibly. If she had to point out its flaws, she could even criticize the battleship's vulgar golden exterior.
However, humans were visual creatures after all. The size of the Forward was one size bigger than the God Blessing. Just the stark contrast alone was enough to make people unhappy.
No matter what, size was still an important factor.
"Sorry for making a fool of myself."
Lieutenant General John's smile did not change at all. He even waved his hand in embarrassment.
"To be honest, we didn't intend to use this battleship to make a fool of itself. After all, it's big and cumbersome. It's not a good battleship sample, but Karon strongly requested to use this battleship for testing, so we brought it along … Ah, I hope you don't mind …"
Ogland was also quite unhappy when she heard this. If she could, she really wanted to punch that bastard in the face, but she could not do that. Right now, the huge battleship was already heading towards the channel under the escort of the Kingdom of Fire's fleet. It obviously wanted to enter the port before the Kingdom of Saint's fleet!
Although this was just a dispute, it was also related to the face of the three countries. But to Ogland's surprise, the First Fleet of the Country of Saints suddenly slowed down and opened up their formation …. What was the meaning of this? Were they going to surrender? Under the watchful eyes of the public?
Thinking of this, Ogland could not help but glance at Great Knight Aster beside her. The Great Knight was still smiling with his eyes squinted, as if he had no intention of saying anything at all. Ogland wanted to say something, but at the same time, several flashes suddenly flashed in front of her.
Did the First Fleet open fire?
While thinking of this unreliable idea, Ogland hurriedly looked in the direction of the flashes. Then, she was slightly taken aback.
White beams of light fell from the sky like meteors and landed in the gap in front of the First Fleet. Then, they quickly expanded and turned into a magical array.
This is … a teleportation array. Could it be …!
Ogland's eyes widened in surprise. In her memory, there was only one force in the entire continent that had a fleet that could teleport!
And that was … the Sky's Eye Guards of the Country of Magi!
"Whoosh —"
With a flash of magical light, dozens of warships appeared in front of everyone. Unlike the modified models of the other three countries, the mages of the Country of Magi still used the most ancient warship model. Three decks with 85 magic cannons was their standard design, and it had hardly changed in the past few decades.
But this did not mean that the warships of the Country of Magi were old antiques. Thanks to their excellent alchemy and magic skills, although the warships of the Country of Magi were of the standard model, they each took on a completely different role. Coupled with the magic buffs on the mages, the warships of the Country of Magi had become one of the most influential existences in the sky of this continent.
This time, the Country of Magi's fleet also displayed a brand new warship.
"That's …"
Many people were surprised to see the Country of Magi's fleet standing out like a crane among chickens. If the warships of the Country of Saints, the Country of Fire, and the Country of Wealth were more or less like "warships", then the warship of the Country of Magi was more like a small circular floating island than a warship. There were a total of six mage towers erected around the floating island. But that was not the most important thing.
The most important thing was that they could clearly see the berths for the magic warships around the floating island!
"This …."
"Hahaha."
Looking at Lieutenant General John's expression, Great Knight Aster chuckled.
"I'm sorry to make you laugh, Lieutenant General John. To be honest, the Country of Saints doesn't want to dominate the seas. We just want to protect our territory. That's why we joined forces with the Country of Magi to conduct research on air berths … Well, I admit, it's not actually a warship. It's only used to provide supplies and berths for other magic warships …. "
"…."
Hearing Great Knight Aster's "explanation", Lieutenant General John's expression did not change, but a cold glint flashed in his eyes. He was not a fool. Although Great Knight Yast said that this thing was not a battleship, and it did not look like a battleship, Lieutenant General John knew that the appearance of this "battleship" had made the Kingdom of Saint a huge threat!
Because the Country of Saints had solved a very important problem, and that was the logistical supply of long-distance fleets!!
As the commander of the Seventh Fleet of the Country of Fire, which controlled most of the Endless Sea, Lieutenant General John certainly understood the importance of logistical supply. Even they could only ensure the supply of their fleet by building docks and berths in existing civilized areas.
But a "supply ship" that could move at any time and could be used to berth magic warships was completely different! Even if it was not fast, being able to move meant that the Country of Saints could berth this "supply ship" anywhere! It would not be limited by the supply range like they were. This way, the whereabouts of the Country of Saints' fleet would be even more difficult to grasp!
Damn it, those bastard mages of the Country of Magi …. I knew they wouldn't be easy to deal with!
But ….
At this thought, a cold glint flashed in Lieutenant General John's eyes.
