Whoosh —
With the advantage, the Alliance's regular fleet had also broken into the Republic's battle line.
Their strategy was simple. One of the two sub-fleets was responsible for breaking through the center of the enemy's fleet and cutting off the front and back. Due to the wind direction, the vanguard would not be able to return in a short period of time. The other would be responsible for eliminating the rear guard that was cut off.
Their flagship, the Glory, was responsible for eliminating the enemy's flagship, the Eternal Icon, causing the enemy to fall into complete chaos. In the end, they would destroy the Republic's fleet one by one.
"Command, all cannons, fire!"
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Hot iron cannonballs flew across the sea and smashed into the enemy's hull. When a third-level warship and a fourth-level warship were facing each other, they could even jump on the deck and easily wipe out everything.
The cannonballs roared, wood chips flew, and screams could be heard.
Although the efficiency of conventional weapons was far less than extraordinary weapons, the degree of devastation was still higher.
"Send out the signal, fight on your own!"
The signal flag on the Eternal Icon waved and transmitted the commander's order to the other warships.
Thomas's father, Grand Knight Bessimo Gregory, had been promoted to Admiral at lightning speed. He had even risen to the position of Commander of the Flotilla Squadron. The Gregory family was one of the founding fathers of the Navy, and they were also related by marriage to Chairman Zerom.
At this time, he replaced Admiral Huggins who had left the battlefield and took over the command of the fleet.
After the fleet officially engaged in the battle, the situation on the battlefield had changed rapidly. The commanders of both sides issued a final collective order to the captains under their command.
Commander of the Alliance's fleet, Major General Desmond Brand:
"Courage is more important than knowledge. When you don't know how to attack next, try to get as close to the enemy as possible. This tactic will not lead to a big mistake no matter what."
Commander of the Republic's fleet, Admiral Bessimo Gregory, whose warships were at a disadvantage:
"If the Republic's fleet has the upper hand, close in on the enemy and fight one-on-one. If you are at a disadvantage, try to maintain the battle line while the captains don't be afraid to fight on your own. "
After that.
"Glory", which was originally a level-three warship, followed closely behind "Storm Horn", which was originally a level-four warship, and charged at "Eternal Icon", which was originally a level-two warship.
Whoosh —
Under the water, a huge shadow that was close to a hundred meters long took the lead and rushed in front of the Storm Horn that had activated the [Unicorn Shark].
.....
On the vast sea, two warships, one at the front and one at the back, moved at high speed, leaving a long white line behind them.
Rumble! "Boom!"
The high-speed water ring around the Sea Soul soon shattered under the continuous bombardment of the electromagnetic cannon.
Even though they were moving at high speed, May and Olivia, who were in charge of the firing system, were able to maintain their accuracy. Not a single cannonball missed the target. Every single shot consumed the Sea Spirit's energy.
Furthermore.
With the help of Olivia's' metaphysics', Mei continued to update her algorithm and grow. Elvin had no doubt that Mei's abilities would be greatly improved after this battle.
However, the Sea Soul's counterattack had arrived.
This legendary battleship that was born because of the gods also had no crew members. The "ship spirit" with the octopus head that was like a bubble at the bow of the ship was making bubbling sounds.
The side cannons on the lower deck opened one after another. Ten cannons with uneven surfaces that seemed to be made of coral poked their heads out. White light flickered in the cannons.
Woo —!
Woo —!
The next moment, the whimpering sound of a whirlwind was heard. Streaks of white light shot out and the temperature of the sea area dropped drastically. It was as if the end of autumn had turned into winter in an instant.
[Ability: Bomb Cyclone]
The light streaks that were moving in the same direction as the battleship would not be able to hit the Miracle Crown that was three kilometers away from the front. However, they left a cold white trail behind them as they completed a right angle turn.
Carrying a majestic force that stirred the atmosphere, they flew towards the black battleship at a speed of 105 meters per second.
The 'Bomb Cyclone' was also an extreme natural phenomenon that was not rare in the Black Sea. It was a phenomenon where the air pressure in a certain area dropped rapidly in a short period of time, forming a low-pressure system.
When the wind in the nearby area converged, it would rotate in the same direction as the planet, forming a high-speed cyclone that was often accompanied by strong hurricanes, heavy rainfall, and even strong snowstorms.
After being integrated into the weapon system of the Sea Spirit, the [Bomb Cyclone] was equipped with a high-speed, low-pressure core that had a range of ten kilometers. The hurricane and extreme cold it carried could deal great damage to the target within a hundred meters.
After being blessed by the divine power of the Goddess of the Black Sea, it was much more powerful than Solomon's [Kasere Bronze Cannon].
On the [Miracle Crown].
The comprehensive 'Mental Network' had already projected the enemy's actions onto the light screen in front of Elvin and Olivia.
Elvin did not panic.
"Hersey, counterspell, [Tranquility]!"
"Roger that!"
Olivia's eyes flashed with spiritual light as she activated the wizard tower under her feet. In an instant, a circle of pale green light spread out rapidly with the tower as the center.
[Wizard Tower — Inherent Ability: Tranquility]
The wind element became silent. Within a radius of ten kilometers, not even the slightest airflow could be seen.
Boom!
After the ten white 'cyclone bombs' entered the area of tranquility, they were like small insects that fell into pine resin. They began to weaken rapidly.
When they arrived in front of the 'Miracle Crown,' only a light breeze was left. Elvin did not even activate [World's Barrier].
It did not have the 'absoluteness' of a treasure of the sea. This was probably the biggest weakness of this type of spell-like attack.
"We don't have to worry about friendly fire here. Plum, use the main cannon! No matter how strong his recovery ability is, there's still a limit. Let's shoot him from the beginning to the end! "
Currently, the war treaty between countries forbade high-grade Transcendents from slaughtering ordinary soldiers. Generally speaking, when the level of power on the battlefield was equal, before the outcome of the battle between the two parties was decided, no one would be the initiator.
It was not a big problem if one was alone. However, if one had a powerful force behind him, one would have to worry about the retaliation of the other party. It was just like how a middle-aged man with a family was the easiest to manage.
At the same time, this was another embodiment of Transcendents being Transcendents, and mortals being mortals. Of course, if the difference in Transcendents was too great, then it was just a matter of words from someone else.
"Yes, sir!"
Plum, who was standing beside Elvin, responded in a crisp voice.
The black battleship that was filled with technology drew a perfect arc on the surface of the sea. It completed the turn with a large angle that a sail battleship would not even dare to imagine. It aimed the twin turrets on the front deck at the 'Sea Spirit' behind it.
This simple tactical maneuver might require the cooperation of nearly a hundred people on a sail battleship to smoothly complete, but on the 'Miracle Crown', Elvin only needed one command, and Plum could do it for him.
The cannon rotated and switched to the specially enchanted tungsten bullets.
Hum!
The main cannon that had been prepared for a long time had already finished charging. The two vertical circular cannons spat out flames one second apart.
Boom! Boom!
The cannonballs that flew at five times the speed of sound arrived in the blink of an eye, leaving behind a loud rumble in the air.
The main electromagnetic cannon that could destroy a first-level battleship in one shot had completely broken through the defensive threshold of the [Water Bubble Ring]. It tore the battleship apart like paper.
"Not good!"
At the same time, Huggins, who saw that the situation was not good, had already jumped up. The next moment, the 'Sea Spirit' under his feet was pierced through like a meat skewer with an iron rod. A large hole appeared in the front and back of the battleship.
"Ugh!"
The octopus Ship Spirit that had half of its bow cut off let out an ear-piercing cry.
Even though the seawater of the Black Sea was surging in at an unprecedented speed and the 'Sea Spirit' was continuously recovering, the recovery speed of this penetrating wound was extremely slow.
Clearly, even with the 'homogenous sea current' characteristic, this kind of injury was a heavy burden to the battleship.
Huggins' face was gloomy. From the start of the battle until now, his' Sea Spirit 'did not gain any advantage in front of this legendary battleship of unknown origin.
Other than its recovery ability, its speed, attack, and defense were all defeated.
This allowed him to see the inherent flaws of this battleship that he was so proud of. It also allowed him to see the limits of the Black Sea's natural power.
However, he still had a trump card, a trump card that would allow him to remain undefeated!
"'Sea Spirit' activating [Legendary Battleship Skill: Underwater Movement]. In terms of survivability, no one in this sea can compare with me! "
Right before the eyes of the 'Miracle Crown', the three slanted masts of the 'Sea Spirit' had turned into real 'fins'. With a large hole in the front and back of the battleship, the 'Sea Spirit' quickly dived into the bottom of the sea and transformed into a huge 'fish'.
Even if one did not have the 'Tier 4 Undefeatable' ability to be immune to most of the unfavorable rules, as long as one stood on this battleship, they would automatically receive the buff of [Underwater Breathing].
Standing on the still tattered deck and looking at the sparkling surface of the sea above his head, Huggins sneered.
He knew that the alliance had a type of alchemy equipment that could attack underwater sea monsters. However, the 'Sea Spirit' did not have a body made of flesh and blood. In this era where naval battles were still stagnant on the surface of the sea, the 'Sea Spirit' was invincible!
"It's our turn to show our prowess. 'Sea Spirit' activating [Tidal Cannon]!"
Huggins, who was wearing a Navy Marshal uniform, was in high spirits as he waved his hand fiercely.
Then, six bone spurs that looked like the ribs of sea monsters extended out from the hull of the ship. An invisible energy wave spread out and the entire sea area shook violently.
The majestic sea current was stirred up from the bottom of the sea.
* Rumble … *
Then, one after another, snow-white 'steeds' appeared on the surface of the water. Thousands of 'white steeds' led the tide that was as protruding as hills to charge forward. They surrounded the 'Miracle Crown' in the middle in a semicircle formation.
The waves were five meters high and the speed was … one thousand kilometers per hour!
