Boom!
[Miracle Crown] had no intention of clashing head-on with this attack with unknown effects. It disappeared in a burst of light butterflies. A giant whirlpool suddenly appeared under [Sea Soul], which was controlled by Nympho, and it was sucked into the whirlpool.
Only [Steam Fortress], which was facing Nympho, quickly lit up a magic shield, but the strange light wave easily penetrated the shield and hit the hull of the ship.
Whoosh!
White steam suddenly gushed out of the ship, and hundreds of alchemy cannons started to spin around as if they were crazy. Suddenly, all the cannons pointed at [Miracle Crown], which reappeared five kilometers away.
Elvin was shocked, and he quickly asked Princeton through the [Mental Network], "What's wrong?
"Principal, what's going on over there?"
The normal usage of [Fifth Law Command – People's Heart to Me] was to make all the human crew members betray [Gorse] and turn them into the most loyal dogs of [Gorse].
Even if they had strong resistance, they would still have a good impression of [Gorse], and they wouldn't have the courage to fight it.
For the Ship Spirit, which also had spirituality, it was clearly not immune to such a weird mental attack.
However, even if the legendary battleship had a personality, it still needed someone to control it.
"No problem. The weapon system hasn't been unlocked yet, so the ship spirit can't attack directly. Give me some time, and I'll take care of it.
Command, silence the ship spirit and turn on manual mode! "
Princeton's principal didn't panic. [Steam Fortress] was the property of the kingdom, and it didn't have as much freedom as [Plum] did. There were layers and layers of restrictions on the control system, and without authorization, even the ship spirit couldn't break through the restrictions.
Elvin waved his hand and threw [Steam Fortress] ten kilometers away. Then, he dragged the hundred or so conventional battleships behind him. He shouted at Nympho, who was sneaking up on him, "Ma 'am!"
"Understood. Sea Soul, activate [Tidal Cannon]!"
Hualala …
One snow-white 'steeds' after another appeared on the surface of the water. Thousands of 'white horses' led the tide forward, shrouding the front half of Shilius's double column in a terrifying shadow in the blink of an eye.
Elvin had originally wanted to use the warship confrontation to gather more information on the enemy before activating his skill to end the battle. However, Shilius's side clearly did not give him the chance.
According to the information they had, the [Sea King] was able to use the power of a certain "crowd gathering".
As long as he launched a large-scale continuous attack that exceeded the upper limit of all conventional battleships, he should be able to destroy the [King's Servant].
However.
In the face of this horrifying tide that seemed to want to crush and devour everything, [Sea King] unfurled its sails and moved forward without fear.
This unprecedented behemoth seemed to be not much shorter than the tides. It had a displacement of 5,826 tons, four decks of cannons, and 170 different types of cannons.
It should be noted that the mainstream first-level warships only had 110 cannons at most. From a design point of view, it was definitely the uncrowned king of the sail warship era. It was worthy of the domineering title of 'Sea King'.
Prince Roderick stood in his commanding position and looked at the rapidly approaching tide. He waved his hand and said, "Sea King, activate [Ability: Sword of the Conqueror of the World]!"
The legendary warship that was built with the help of the School of Curses' witchcraft had traces of mediums everywhere. [Sword of the Conqueror of the World] was a transcendent longsword that was placed at the bow of the ship. It was also called [Tyrfen Fissure Sword].
The sword was 99 centimeters long and weighed 1.1 kilograms. It had two ship-shaped golden gauntlets and a large diamond hilt at the end. The entire sword was so luxurious and majestic.
This was the sword that the current king, Carlos I, had forged when the Shilius Kingdom was at its peak. It was later blessed by the angel of the church. Not only was it symbolic, but it was also a divine weapon that was hard to come by in the material world.
Clang!
As soon as his voice trailed off, the shadow of a giant sword had already soared into the sky. Even though Elvin was several kilometers away, he could still clearly feel the bone-piercing sharpness.
At the moment when the tide was about to reach them, the giant sword seemed to have been slashed down by a giant standing in the sky.
Whoosh!
The surging tide was easily split in two. It was like the great power of a sage splitting the sea in the legends. The split tide did not merge back together. Instead, it bypassed the area where they were and rushed to the sides.
Prince Roderick sneered.
"Heh, the same move is useless against the powerful Shilius. It's time for us to settle the score with the Blazing Light! "
In the first round of battle between the legendary warships, Shilius, who had a certain understanding of the Tulip Family's legendary warships, had a slight advantage. Under the lead of the two legendary warships, the double column charged forward again.
The battle seemed to have returned to the starting point.
Elvin pursed his lips and sent his regular fleet back to the rear of Shilius' formation to continue the'T 'formation. As long as he could break the enemy into pieces, [Hurricane Bullets] would naturally bless his crows.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Cannons roared on the surface of the sea. In the'T 'formation, the regular fleet still had some success.
Shilius' absolute defense could only protect the rear of one of the two columns. When they were attacked at the same time, they could only choose one of the two. Finally, the battle line began to be whittled down bit by bit.
"Change formation, single column!"
Realizing the drawback, the prince quickly adjusted the formation, turning the battle line into a long dragon on the sea that stretched for nearly ten kilometers. The flagship was [Sea King], and the last ship at the end of the line was buffed with collective defense.
Regardless of whether they attacked from the left or the right, they would have to face the cannons of the main battleships.
[Sea King]'s ability to "gather" was the true use of ordinary warships in a supernatural battlefield. It turned the regular warships from being a burden to a supernatural warship into a powerful assistant.
Elvin did not show any weakness.
"Order, change formation. Double Ship Tactic!"
The 'Double Ship Tactic' could also be called the 'U-shaped Tactic'. One's battle line would form a pocket that would cover the opponent's butt, causing the opponent to be attacked from the back and abdomen, maximizing one's firepower.
However, this tactic required the sea to be in good condition, and the captain to have extraordinary piloting skills and extremely high speed. Otherwise, the enemy's frontline warships could easily turn to support the rear warships.
When Elvin raised his hands, the current and sea breeze in the sea had already become an extension of his consciousness.
The Invincible fleet was practically standing on the same spot, but the Alliance fleet around them was shuttling around as if they were flying. The cumbersome sail warships seemed to have become speedboats, and the combat power of the regular warships was almost 150% under Elvin's control.
[Pseudo Authority — Seat Stealer]
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The two armies faced off against each other like two swordsmen using the fleet in their hands as swords, engaging in a seemingly simple but actually extremely powerful sword battle.
One side used the 'Supreme Sword Technique', which focused on defense, [Weak Under Strength Normal Form], [Weak Under Strength Normal Form], [Weak Under Strength Normal Form], and [Weak Under Strength Normal Form]. The other side used the 'White Sail Sword Technique', which focused on movement and attack, [Profound Meaning — Floating Boat].
Battle cries rang out as cannon fire filled the sky.
Under the suppression of the legendary warships, this attack was quickly effective. [King's Attendant]'s effect could not deal with the 'U-shaped Tactic' very well, and the warships on Shilius' side began to suffer heavy damage and were forced to withdraw from the battle line.
[Sea King's Power] also began to weaken.
At this moment.
The upper echelons of Shilius' fleet could no longer sit still.
[Legendary Warship — Goldfinch] left the fleet and flew to the rear of the fleet, at the same time activating [Legendary Warship Technique — King's Decree].
[First Decree — This is the sacred land of Shilius!]
The Decree belonged to Alfonso the Twelfth, who had started the Age of Exploration. The Shilius people had established themselves in this sacred land and were blessed by the gods.
Elvin's control over the sea and the atmosphere was immediately reduced by more than half.
"This is a powerful support-type warship. Every ability it has is of a strategic level. 'Sea Soul', stop him! "
The side cannons on the lower deck of [Sea Soul] opened one after another, and ten cannons with uneven surfaces that looked like coral poked their heads out. White light flashed in the cannons' muzzles.
* Wuuu … Wuuu … *
Low whirlwinds that sounded like whimpering sounded one after another, and white balls of light shot out. Then, the temperature in this part of the sea plummeted, and it made one wonder if they had instantly gone from summer in the tropics to winter in the Arctic.
[Bomb Cyclone]
[Goldfinch] activated its legendary warship technique again. This time, it was [Third Decree — Kings Shall Not Die by Axes, Swords, and Spears], and its defense was increased exponentially.
When they entered into a fierce battle, [Miracle Crown] and [Sea King] officially engaged in battle.
* Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! *
Compared to the cannons made by the 'School of Alchemy', the 170 ship-borne cannons did not have outstanding performance, but they had the same characteristic as the 'School of Curses' — they had terrifying accuracy.
After locking onto a single target, none of the cannons missed.
[Miracle Crown] activated [Dream Cruise] and kept jumping and dodging in the rain of bullets. Although the number of regular battleships had not dropped to the point where [Sea King] could break through its defense, [Miracle Crown] was still able to do so.
Elvin also activated the weapon system and used the spacing attack method to allow the enemy to maintain the 'concentrated defense' or 'damage transfer' status for him. Even though there was no immediate problem, the Invincible Fleet's HP was still decreasing.
At this moment.
Princeton had already partially rebooted the Ship Spirit, and only the auxiliary control function of the Ship Spirit was retained. It was mainly controlled by himself, the great wizard.
* Rumble … Rumble … *
Then, both sides saw a metal giant more than 50 meters tall on the surface of the sea, and it flew toward the battlefield like a long dragon of steam.
[Legendary Warship Technique — Titan Form]
Compared to the legendary warship on Shilius' side, [Steam Fortress] could unleash all of its abilities at 300%. This was an absolute violent creation that was born for battle!
Shrouded in white steam, the Steel Titan leaped up from the surface of the sea and kicked [Sea King] with a solid kick.
* Duang!!! *
One of the fifth-level warships in the Invincible Fleet was suddenly blasted into dust along with its passengers.
That was not the end.
Another legendary warship with a supernatural glow jumped out of [Sorcerer's Garden]. It was Jeros' [Theseus].
* Splash … *
A total of 60 long oars on both sides of [Theseus] stirred up the current and turned into giant water wings that looked like bow arms on both sides of [Theseus]. The giant horn at the front of the ship was glowing with the color of orichalcum, and it gradually lit up.
Rings of light exploded on it one after another, giving it many characteristics such as toughness, agility, sharpness, bleeding, and the most powerful anti-magic attribute of orichalcum.
The entire battleship was like a taut crossbow or a mountain that was about to topple over. It was about to topple [Sea King] with unstoppable momentum.
[Ability — Bronze Horn Mountain]
In the blink of an eye, the power ratio on the battlefield became 4: 2, and the situation took a turn for the worse.
Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, the senior-rank Transcendents who had been quietly observing finally couldn't hold back anymore.
* Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! *
Four black silhouettes in sorcerer robes flew out from the flagship [Sea King].
If the fleet was destroyed, the senior-rank Transcendents would lose their value as well. If they lost the fleet, they would lose the chance to continue ruling the Peacock Islands.
They had to stop this possibility before the situation worsened completely.
Princeton was in manual mode and couldn't get away, but Sword Saint Elvidi, who was accompanying them, had already flown into the sky.
On the duchy's side, 'Emerald Light' Anita, 'Snake Witch' Cella, Nympho, and Jeros also flew out from the battleship. Even Milan stood on the deck of [Miracle Crown], waiting for an opportunity to strike.
When Elvin was about to fly into the sky, he suddenly received a warning from the [Mind Network]. His face changed slightly.
"As expected, the ghosts are everywhere. As long as you have something to do with those ancient gods, nothing good will come out of it."
.....
At this moment, the only peaceful place in the New World was in the north.
Caw! Caw!
Caw! Caw! A large group of shaman wizards who had turned into crows was led by "Lady Crow" Yeherr. They crossed the Niagara River that separated the duchy and the Manchak Swamp and entered the territory of the duchy — Buffalo.
