Fang La's army also had hot weapons, which were almost a hundred cannons in total.
As a matter of fact, firearms hadn't been popularized in the Northern Song Dynasty yet.
Even the army of the court wouldn't equip their ships with so many cannons!
However, since Ling Zhen, the "Heaven Shaking Thunder", existed in Water Margin, it wasn't strange that Fang La's fleet had cannons.
Pa! Pa! Pa!
However, those cannons, which were no more powerful than Extraordinary Rank-5, posed little threat to the Mirage Dragon Warship.
It was because most of the cannonballs were blocked by a red shield before they could reach the warship!
"Hualala …"
On the deck of the Mirage Dragon Warship …
A tree that looked like red jade stood there. Its leaves that seemed to be made of condensed red light kept emitting red light, forming a red shield that blocked the areas on the Mirage Dragon Warship, such as the arsenal and the engine compartment.
Furthermore, a lot of vines that were covered in a layer of red light weaved into a net and blocked some of the cannonballs that were flying at it.
[Blood]
[Level: Extraordinary Rank-8]
[Rarity: Commander]
[Description: This is the contracted creature of the master of the Twin Dragon Island. The seed of the Thousand-Year Tree Demon has mutated after absorbing the power of the Bloodsoul Vine Tree.]
Because it was rooted in the Mirage Dragon Warship, it hunted the enormous fish in the seawater every day and extracted their blood for evolution.]
At this moment, this mutated tree demon had reached the peak of Rank-8!
If it had enough blood, it could even carry out the defense ability of an Extraordinary Rank-9 creature.
However, faced with Fang La's army that was surrounded by a hundred warships that carried thousands of people, the Mirage Dragon Warship didn't dare to fight them head-on.
Obviously, even a real Extraordinary Rank-9 creature couldn't fight them head-on.
Therefore, the Mirage Dragon Warship stopped firing and began to retreat to the Twin Dragon Island.
However, upon closer inspection, one would find that there was something wrong with the retreat.
It was because, apart from the thousand Pulp Algae at the bottom of the warship, the Hurricane Pirate Flag on the Mirage Dragon Warship that contained Transcendent power wasn't activated at all, and the two Fire Oil Steam Turbines were only running at the lowest power level!
"That blasphemer has gone to the warship too."
"He's a monster with the evil dragon bloodline. He'll be able to stir up trouble on the sea!"
On Fang La's side, someone noticed that Ji Ye had boarded the retreating Mirage Dragon Warship.
"On the sea … No, I have to chase after them. I can't let them retreat!"
On a ship that was made of materials similar to the sun and had a slight golden flame color, it was quite tall and could accommodate close to a thousand people.
A middle-aged man who was riding on a white steed and holding a spear in his hand hesitated for a moment before giving the order to pursue and attack with a sullen face!
It wasn't because Ji Ye blasphemed the Lord of Light.
It was because the sun had risen, and he found that the Mirage Dragon Warship wasn't the only thing on the sea.
Another five weirdly-shaped warships with black smoke rising from their heads were moving toward them from the Twin Dragon Island.
[Iron-armored Warship]
[Level: Extraordinary]
Rarity: Excellent
[Description: This is a medium-sized warship made of the Twin Dragon Island's specialty Mahogany Core and a lot of alloys!]
Those Iron Armored Warships weren't really modern iron warships, but their bodies were made of mahogany, and the critical parts were all covered by Extraordinary alloys.
For the ancient people, such a design was even weirder than the Mirage Dragon Warship, which seemed to be covered in mist.
One Mirage Dragon Warship alone had already wrecked the military camp.
At this moment, another five strange warships had shown up. Once they approached the military camp, the entire camp would probably be razed to the ground.
Therefore, in the end, Fang La's navy, which consisted of more than three thousand soldiers and fifteen commanders, all left the village and marched toward the Twin Dragon Island's fleet!
"Well, the plan worked … Commander Yue, let's begin too!"
Seeing that, on the red guqin ship that was several kilometers away from the battlefield …
Zhou Yu, who had changed into a military uniform and looked rather handsome, pressed his hands on the strings of the guqin that were transformed from the Yuan emperor's Sonic Bow!
Ding, ding, ding …
Immediately, familiar music came out.
The red guqin ship was covered in flames along with the soundwaves, forming a translucent golden phoenix in the sky.
However, after this phoenix flew out, it did not immediately fly away.
They were circling around the Phoenix Warship, as if they were waiting for something!
Chirp!
Soon, another clear sound came from the Phoenix Zither.
Another phoenix appeared, but its color was more red, and its neck and tail were more slender.
Among the Phoenixes, the Feng was the male and the Huang was the female.
The first golden phoenix that rushed out was a male phoenix, but this red one was a female phoenix.
This time, the "A Male Phoenix Seeking for a Female Phoenix" was actually a pair of phoenixes.
The reason was that, on the Phoenix Guqin Ship, apart from the music players who had joined the newly-established "Music House" department and were all above the Extraordinary level, the pipa woman and Pei Xingnu, the two natives of the Musical House settlement, there weren't many people on the ship.
There was another person who was also playing the "Phoenix Guqin" with Zhou Yu. He was a handsome young man with a long, cold iron flute hanging from his waist.
[Le He]
[Level: Extraordinary Rank-7]
[Rarity: Commander]
[Description: His title is "Earthly Music Star". His nickname is "Iron Beggar".] [He is the leader of the four secret academies of Liangshan and the commander of the sentinels.]
[Note: He knows all kinds of music very well, and he knows how to do things very well. When it comes to martial arts and spears, he loves them like honey.]
Although Le He was only average among the Earthly Fiends, he was actually very capable.
Based on his poetic announcement when he arrived, it could be seen that he was a hero who could almost be called a replica of Yan Qing.
Although he wasn't as good as Yan Qing in martial arts, he was as good as Yan Qing in music. If anything, he was even better.
He was as good as An Daoist in medicine or Ling Zhen in cannon making.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been named "Earthly Music Star".
As for the talent he possessed, he lived up to his name. His forte lay in using "music" to coordinate with others.
His "support" ability was even greater than that of Chu Yin and Nie Xiaoqian!
"Chirp!"
A pair of golden-red phoenixes cried out in unison after they appeared.
After that, they turned into two streaks of fiery light and flew toward the battlefield at an altitude of several feet above the sea.
"Hmm?"
"The phoenix has appeared. Get ready to attack!"
A pair of phoenixes appeared.
The Mirage Dragon Warship, which had been retreating, suddenly doubled its speed.
At the same time, the warship began to change its direction, and the 10 cannons on it began to fire at the warships of Fang La's army.
"Boom, boom, boom …"
The five Iron Armored Warships on the sea were also moving at full speed.
To Fang La's surprise, the Mirage Dragon Warship entered the firing range and launched long-range attacks together with the Mirage Dragon Warship.
"Rumble …"
In the blink of an eye, seven or eight medium-sized warships had already been hit. Large holes had been blasted into them, and gray smoke was rising from them.
Some of the smaller warships were even directly sunk by the cannonballs!
"Spread out in all directions and surround them!"
"No one is allowed to retreat. Charge forward and engage in close combat!"
However, faced with such a situation, the commander of Fang La's army made up his mind.
He ordered the victorious warships to form a battle formation. While blocking the Twin Dragon Island's attacks with all kinds of extraordinary powers, they approached from all directions.
The Twin Dragon Island's warships were powerful, but they were too few in number.
If they were surrounded and attacked from all directions, even the Mirage Dragon Warship wouldn't be able to deal with them!
"Look, what's that?"
However, while those warships were surrounding the Twin Dragon Island …
Two golden-red phoenixes had reached the battlefield as streaks of fire!
