In a pure white 'mind space', figures of various colors appeared one after another.
Although all of them only had a hazy upper body silhouette, the common feature was that they were all wearing a straight general's uniform.
As everyone gradually arrived, a blue figure in the center spoke first.
"Everyone who has read the intelligence should be very clear about the current situation in the Southern Continent.
Those incompetent soldiers of the army are losing ground one after another and are retreating under the might of Shilius. The only thing the Alliance can rely on is our navy!
What strategy do you think we should adopt next to deal with Shilius' aggression? "
All the admirals of the Tulip Alliance's navies stationed in the Southern Continent had already gathered here. Apart from the civilian officers, there were less than ten Grade 3 Great Knights.
Lieutenant General Temple Elvis, who had the highest rank and the strongest strength among the navies stationed in the Southern Continent, was the commander-in-chief of this colonial defense war. It was only right for him to preside over this battle meeting.
"Sir Commander and my fellow colleagues. The native reinforcements will arrive at the Bay of Benin in less than two weeks. I believe that the loss of the north-south route in a short period of time is completely bearable.
Even if Shilius captures the port cities of the Alliance, as long as we can win the naval battle and gain control of the sea, we can regain the lost land. "
A Great Knight put forward his opinion, implying that no matter how Shilius tried to lure them out, they should ignore it and only need to preserve their own strength.
"Seconded. A war of nations involves high-grade Transcendents and even the fate of a nation. No diviner can afford to pay such a price.
As long as they don't discover our main fleet, when the reinforcements arrive, we will be able to fight Shilius' expeditionary force and the local garrison head-on.
If we suffer heavy losses in advance, even if the reinforcements arrive, we will only face the outcome of being defeated one by one. "
Another civilian official seconded the motion and provided an even more sufficient reason.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, someone else raised a different opinion. It was Major-General Haus Siric, captain of the quasi-legendary warship Five Masts Peak of Tylon.
"Everyone, don't forget that Shilius' advantage isn't limited to conventional warships.
Intelligence shows that Griffith has already ordered the two quasi-legendary warships stationed in the colony to fight. Without a targeted force to contain them, how can the Alliance's fleet hide in peace?
Furthermore, if they were allowed to guard the Treasure Sea Route.
It doesn't make much of a difference whether they deal with us first or the reinforcements first. As long as we want to regroup, we will definitely be exposed.
When the time comes, as long as a quasi-Legendary-class warship catches your tail, an endless stream of conventional warships will swarm over. The key now is not to hide or not, but the imbalance of high-end power! "
After hearing his words, the entire place fell silent for a moment. Most of the light figures were frowning.
Stratagems were only useful under the premise that the difference in strength between the two sides was not too great. Now that the two sides had a power difference of two against three, this was the crux of the problem.
At this moment.
The Commander-in-Chief of the Alliance, Lieutenant General Temple Elvis, spoke again. The expression on his face could not be seen, but the excitement in his words was obvious.
"Shilius thinks that both regular warships and quasi-legendary warships are enough to suppress us, so he used this tactic of forcing us to fight.
However, they don't know that the ratio of our Quasi-Legends has actually become three to three! "
"Three to three?"
"A Quasi-Legend from the Alliance actually arrived in less than a month?"
"Which country's Quasi-Legendary? How could the Alliance have so much extra power? Why don't we know about it? "
Many people had already looked at the corner of the "Mind Space". There was a strange figure who was also wearing a general's uniform but had not said a word from beginning to end.
The commander interrupted the discussion of the Grand Knight and also looked at the green figure in the corner. He introduced to the Grand Knight.
"Brigadier General Garriott and his Storm Horn, who came from the New World as reinforcements, have just joined the battlefield, but they have already killed Steel Knight Kungang Taita, the deputy commander of the expedition fleet, captured the third-level warship Steel Dragon, and sunk several conventional battleships.
Next, my Northland Cold Wind, General Cyric's Five Masts Peak, and General Garriott's Storm Horn will be responsible for holding back the other three quasi-Legendary-class warships.
The conventional fleet will still maintain the guerrilla warfare tactics. We must not let them block the route! "
Hearing the news revealed by the commander, the generals of the illegal Letis and Tylon countries all changed their expressions.
This information was something they did not know for the time being. No wonder the Steel Knight, as the deputy commander, had disappeared for so long. It turned out that he had been quietly killed by General Garriott.
"Garriott? Is he the Garriott I thought he was? "
Many people murmured to themselves, but they could not believe it. The rising star of the navy a year ago was now able to kill a Grand Knight? Was the world changing too fast, or had they been abandoned by the times?
However, their self-doubt did not last long. Morale was greatly boosted. The one who could kill the Steel Knight was a strong support in any case. Everyone felt as if they had been given a shot in the arm when the battle was not going well.
As time went by, Elvin, whose ability was growing, was getting closer and closer to the core of the big event. He even took on the responsibility of being the mainstay.
"Yes, Sir!" “
"Yes, sir!"
After Cyric, Elvin, and the generals took the order, the meeting was over. Everyone left the pure white Mind Space one after another.
Sitting in his captain's cabin on Storm Horn, Elvin also slowly opened his eyes. The first thing he cared about was not the mission but the mental network. "I didn't know that the Mind Network could be used in this way. The older, the wiser. I've learned something new."
The foundation of the "Cloud Conference Room" came from the "Mind Network" of the spiritualized seagulls.
The Mind Network that covered more than half of the Southern Continent battlefield allowed the spiritualized seagulls to become network nodes in the Void. They could already achieve the ability to [Speak] on a large scale.
Under normal circumstances, with the solidified Mind Bond on the seagulls, short-distance communication within dozens of kilometers was not a problem.
However, for the cross-country long-distance communication on the continent, it was not a conventional ability that could be used anytime and anywhere, not to mention this "Cloud Conference Room" where one could almost see the other person's figure.
After Elvin revealed this ability of the seagulls, the "Mind Network" was partially rented by the Alliance. Experienced alchemy wizards made witchcraft improvements on this foundation.
Then, the owner of the network, Elvin, took the lead to hold a ceremony. Hundreds of seagulls that had reached the level of a demonized creature entered the spiritualized state and served as signal nodes to provide enough "bandwidth" support.
It was of great significance to the war, and it was not without benefits for Elvin.
It was like renting a satellite. Anyway, he was the only one who used it. The bandwidth of the Mind Network was far from being saturated. Renting it to the Alliance could also make a lot of money, or get some good things that were rarely seen in the outside world.
Anything built on this network by the Alliance wizards would eventually belong to him.
In addition, there was a large-scale all-weather reconnaissance ability.
The "Mind Network" of the seagulls was already a killing machine on the battlefield. It was more significant than having a few more battleships.
In addition, he did not have to worry about being taken over by the officials.
The principle of the "Mind Network" was not difficult for the alchemy school, and the relevant technical reserves were already available.
It was just that they were limited by their thinking and did not think of the application in this aspect. Elvin believed that after this war, "Violet Eyes" would definitely be able to come up with a similar product.
However, as a member of "Violet Eyes," he would definitely receive a large amount of patent fees and internal merits of the association. Although the second volume of "Flesh Sacrifice" had not been collected yet, the resources needed for the advancement could already be prepared now.
Also, it did not matter whose technology he used.
Instant communication between continents was temporarily difficult to achieve. Even Elvin did not dare to fly over the ocean. How could he expect the seagulls to stay in the sky for a long time to act as a signal node?
Moreover, the chaotic magic environment on the ocean was definitely an invisible signal killer.
Walking out of the captain's room, Elvin called First Officer Boris and gave him an order.
Screech!
With a piercing screech, he had once again transformed into a giant thunderbird with tiny sparks flashing in his eyes. Lightning shot out from his eyes as he spread his twelve-meter-long wings and soared into the sky.
This was because the seagulls that Elvin stationed at the border of the Sea of Treasures had already sent back a signal. They had already seen the Alliance's support fleet that was gradually approaching the southern shore of the Sea of Treasures.
Elvin departed from Cape Verde, which was extremely close to the Sea of Treasures. It only took him three hours each way.
What followed was an unpredictable war. No matter which fleet it was, it would not be safe. He had to hurry and bring his aunt and the others to the "Treasured Tree Gulf" in advance before the war began.
.....
The situation this time was not urgent. Elvin was not as high-profile as he was when he first arrived at the "Treasured Tree Gulf".
He dispelled his thunderbird form and landed in advance to send a message. It was very easy for him to find the supply ship that his family was on through the fleet commander's adjutant.
"Ah! Master, why are you here? "
The unexpected surprise was like a ray of sunshine that slightly dispelled the haze that had been in the girl's heart for a month.
"The war is about to begin. I'm here to bring you to the rear."
Seeing his little disciple, Angel, who was becoming more and more beautiful, was also a huge surprise for Elvin.
Then, he saw Ilante who was practicing his sword on the deck. His expression was cold as if he had turned into a completely different person. Elvin's expression suddenly stiffened.
When Aunt Daphne, who had lost a lot of weight, walked out of the cabin, Elvin's scalp was already numb and his hair stood on end. He finally remembered what he had forgotten.
"Elvin!"
Aunt, who had been pretending to be strong all this time, instantly broke down when she saw Elvin. She threw herself into his arms. At first, she was sobbing softly. Gradually, she could no longer hold it in and cried bitterly.
Tears soaked Elvin's clothes in the blink of an eye.
At a loss, Elvin patted his aunt's thin shoulder. He was about to confess to her after the sheep were lost.
"Aunt, actually …"
Suddenly, he thought about it. Because of his and his uncle's negligence, his aunt and her family had been living in fear for a month. If they knew the truth, it was hard to say whether they would be angry or happy. However, he would definitely die a horrible death.
"I, I'll leave it to my uncle. Since I've already reached Stage Three, I shouldn't be beaten to death by my aunt … right?
It's better to die than to die … Oh, it's better to die than to die. Nephew, you better pray for yourself. "
Ten minutes later, the family comforted Daphne and stopped her crying.
Whoosh —
A blue electric light shot into the sky again. As if its tail was lit, it flew towards the "Treasured Tree Gulf".
"Uncle, help …"
