On the battlefield.
In just a short period of time, under the unstoppable Specter Ship's rampage, the joint fleet was in imminent danger.
The predicament of being hit without being able to fight back was like a blow to the dimension. They could only flee in all directions. Even the second-level ship Frost White Sword, which was supposed to be the flagship, was no exception.
No, for them, "running away" was an extravagant hope. No matter how fast they ran, they were like toddlers compared to the Specter Ship. They were easily caught up by the more mobile Specter Ship and sent to the bottom of the sea one by one.
Boom!
Another fourth-grade warship exploded under the high temperature, turning into a fireball and slowly sinking. This … was already the third warship sunk tonight!
The main reason why the Sword of Frost, as the flagship, was unscathed was because it was the furthest away from the Ghostship at the beginning of the battle formation. That was why Elvin and the rest of the crew were lucky enough to escape the disaster.
But at this rate, if the Specter Ship's powerful state could be maintained for a while, it would only be a matter of time before the entire fleet was wiped out.
A dark and deep sense of horror and despair shrouded the hearts of every surviving marine.
There were even marines with weaker mental fortitude who could no longer resist the irresistible threat of death. They screamed crazily.
"Don't come over, monster!"
"Goddess! Save me! "
Hualala …
At this moment, the air suddenly began to flow abnormally, as if it was being stirred up by a behemoth. The entire sea near the battlefield also began to churn.
Boom!
Behind the fleet, near the port, a silver-gray steel ship without a single sail and covered with ferocious turrets slowly squeezed out of the air.
It was like a future creation from another dimension, a divine weapon descending from the sky!
The huge hull cast a shadow. Because of its appearance, the seawater seemed to be repelled and the sea level rose.
The legendary warship Steam Fortress had officially appeared!
Beep!
Amidst the loud whistle, this steel warship breathed in and out the snow-white clouds, letting out a roar like that of a giant beast.
In this era, the fastest sailing speed of a sail-powered warship was only around 8 to 9 knots (1 knot = 1 nautical mile/hour = 1.852 km/hour). Under normal circumstances, it might not even be as fast as an electric scooter.
However, the Steam Fortress was powered by a magically modified steam engine. With the help of magical alchemy, it did not need the help of wind. It could reach an average speed of 20 knots on a regular basis, and it could go even faster at full speed!
In this era of the sea, it was practically against the rules. Furthermore, the most outstanding thing about this Ocean Fortress was not its speed …
The white-haired old man stood at the head of the warship with a metal staff that was delicately carved and inlaid with various gems. Looking at the Specter that was still savaging and the burning warship far away, he said, "Your Highness, please give the order!"
"In my capacity as the first heir to the Kingdom of Faletis, I authorize:
The legendary battleship, Steam Fortress
The Ship Spirit had awakened!
Full power!
Weapon system unlocked!
You are allowed to fight! "
Behind him, Princess Levina also saw everything that was happening on the battlefield. She did not dare to delay and issued her order.
As one of the few legendary battleships in the kingdom, the Steam Fortress was like the nuclear deterrent in Elvin's previous life. Naturally, it could not be mobilized so easily.
At this moment, the wartime authority of Prieston, the captain of the legendary battleship, and the temporary authority of Levina, the heir to the kingdom, had been combined to truly unlock it!
Otherwise, even a powerful legendary battleship would be no more than an iron coffin floating on the surface of the water.
"Yes, Your Highness! Your Highness! "
Following the old man's response, the Steam Fortress seemed to have truly come to life. The gears in the hull turned and let out a crisp sound. The hundreds of turrets hidden on the deck and on the sides of the ship began to operate automatically.
It was like a startled hedgehog that suddenly revealed its spikes, sending chills down one's spine!
"Entering single-person naval combat mode confirmed! Prepare ammunition! 'Frozen Mode: Wind of Frost'!
After the order was given, the ammunition compartment opened automatically. Steam was used as the power gear to turn, and the transmission inside the Steam Fortress worked automatically. Under the control of the central Ship Spirit, the cannonballs covered in blue frost patterns were loaded into place.
The ten secondary cannons on the deck shone coldly as they slowly turned and completed their calibration.
"Target: Specter Ship. Fire!"
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! …
After the calibration of the fire control system, the ten alchemy cannonballs all hit the Specter Ship after a short flight, leaving trails of blue Transcendent spiritual light behind them!
Boom!
The alchemy cannonballs exploded, and thick, icy blue mist instantly surrounded the burning Specter Ship.
Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle! …
It was as if a red-hot soldering iron had been soaked in ice water. In just a few short breaths, the green flames that had covered the entire ship were completely extinguished. Even the pitch-black surface of the ship was covered in a thick layer of ice.
Even the surface of the sea within a hundred meters of the Specter Ship was completely frozen. Like an insect in amber, it could no longer move.
Having taken action, he did not intend to give the Specter Ship any chance.
"Order! Charge the main cannon! "
In the turrets that looked like hedgehogs, the complicated witchcraft inscriptions on the surface of the bow cannon with the largest caliber lit up one by one. Circles of blazing white light bloomed from the muzzle, like a small sun in the dark night.
"Fire the main cannon!"
Boom!!!!
Like a bolt of shocking energy exploding on the surface of the sea, the blazing white light filled everyone's vision. The huge roar almost made everyone temporarily deaf …
Splash … Splash …
A huge amount of seawater turned into raindrops and fell again.
When everyone's vision completely returned to normal, there was no trace of the Specter Ship on the surface of the sea. To be precise, there was not even the slightest piece of the ship's plank.
There was no doubt about the fate of the Dead Soul Box and the last Killer Fiend, Wacker Wales.
"Is this the legendary warship?!"
Not only Elvin, but also the marines who were lucky enough to see the power of this giant steel warship for the first time widened their eyes. They could not believe what they saw.
From the moment the Steam Fortress appeared, the unstoppable Specter Ship instantly switched positions. Just like the previous warship, it became defenseless and was directly blown up on the spot by a combination of attacks!!!
It was not that the Specter Ship, which had reached the quasi-legendary level, was not weak.
It was that the legendary warship itself was like a human that had completed the transcendental transformation. After the transcendental nature, it had given birth to its own ship spirit. Even its shortcomings were far superior to ordinary warships. It could be said that it was invincible in all aspects.
Unless it was met with a stronger force, any weakness of the opponent would be grasped and magnified. Then, it would directly crush the opponent.
A quasi-legendary warship like the Specter Ship, which only relied on a "bow statue," only had a part of the transcendental characteristics. It might be far superior to ordinary warships in terms of speed, attack power, and special abilities, but compared to a real legendary warship, there was still a qualitative difference.
"Is … is it over?" Crail swallowed hard as he looked at the rolling waves on the surface of the sea and said bitterly. Obviously, he had not recovered from the power of the legendary warship.
"It should be over, right? Unless it's a god, no one can survive such an attack! " Anthony seemed to be responding to Crail's words, but also seemed to be talking to himself. As a wizard of the school of alchemy, the Steam Fortress driven by the president of Princeton was his goal. Right now, his eyes were filled with enthusiasm.
"No, it failed!" Only a few people realized that the Specter Ship was not the key. The black spot on the blood moon was the key.
Perhaps it was not appropriate to call it a black spot anymore because the black spot had now expanded into a black cavity the size of a basin.
It was as if it was mocking the marines who were already cheering after surviving the disaster.
Whoosh!
Under the surface of the water where the Specter Ship stopped before, a bloody light broke through the sea and shot straight to the blood moon in the sky.
The bloody light seemed to be wrapped in endless evil and hatred for the secular world as it cut through the night sky. Many ordinary marines who saw this scene even had layers of illusions.
"Ahhh!"
"Don't come over!"
"Damn it!"
In their eyes, countless ghosts and evil spirits crawled out from the bottom of the sea with the bloody light as they frantically struggled to climb onto the warship they were on.
At the same time.
The negative emotions created by the chaos in the city in the middle of the night also reached its peak at this time. It seemed to have triggered some kind of critical point. The night sky of the city had turned blood red and echoed with the blood moon.
They didn't have to wait long.
Pop!
The sound of a bubble bursting sounded from the bottom of everyone's heart.
The black cavity on the moon slowly expanded and burst, as if a newborn had broken free from the fetal membrane and came to the world. An illusory figure wearing colorful and exaggerated costumes with heavy makeup twisted its body and struggled to break free from the black hole.
Except for the distinctive costumes.
Its appearance was indescribable. It looked like a man and a woman, an adult and a child, a saint and a prisoner, an angel and a demon …
At the last moment, with the last surviving descendant of the Wales family as a sacrifice and the blasphemy ceremony in the city, the seal was finally broken.
The evil god Persephone had descended!
