Little White dove into the sea like a flying fish and landed one kilometer in front of the fleet.
Under the sunlight, the water droplets reflected a brilliant light.
"Quick, set up the net!"
Without needing the captain's reminder, the first mate immediately shouted at the sailors.
After the Braavos incident, the alliance army had done a lot of drills to deal with the diving Megalosaurus.
At this moment, the sailors did not panic. They quickly cut the ropes and the fishing nets tied to the side of the ship fell into the sea.
It was as if they had put on a knee-length fishing net skirt for the ship.
There were also many sailors holding a stack of fishing nets and guarding the side of the ship. They opened their eyes wide and stared at the rippling waves on the sea.
"Be careful, the Demonic Dragon is attacking!"
In the middle of the port side, an observer suddenly shouted. At the same time, he threw the fishing net in his hand at the black shadow.
Yes, on a clear morning, the crew on the ship could see Little White swimming under the sea.
This was because the dragon flames only had a range of seven to eight meters underwater.
During World War I and World War II, there were even special observers who used their eyes to look for torpedoes.
In the sea a few meters deep, even torpedoes could be seen.
Little White's body was so big that it could be seen swimming five to six meters under the sea.
"Slash —"
The sharp blades on Little White's wings rubbed against the fishing net fiercely as if it was tearing a piece of cloth.
Danny, who was in her second level Dragon Spirit state, knew that although Little White easily broke free from the fishing net, there were still a lot of net lines around its neck and chest. There were even a few steel wires.
Little White's movements were a little sluggish.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh —"
The crossbows and archers on the side of the ship shot at the black shadow together.
However, the arrows lost a lot of kinetic energy after entering the water. No matter how sharp the arrows were, they could not pierce through Little White's scales.
"Boom!"
After breaking through two layers of fishing nets, Little White drilled into the bottom of the ship and leaned back. The dragon flames shot out and the sea water boiled. The wooden boards at the bottom of the ship were as brittle as biscuits.
"Boom boom boom —" The flagship exploded into two under the dragon flames that were like the Fire God's sword.
Wood pieces flew everywhere, the crew shouted, smoke billowed, and waves surged.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh —"
Even though the flagship was burned in half by the dragon flames, the other three warships in the diamond formation were not scared silly. They did not stop casting fishing nets into the sea.
Then, under the layers of fishing nets, Little White was actually entangled.
Awkward!
"Deep dive, I'll help you." Danny told Little White.
At the same time, half of the six pterosaurs flew above the three warships and began to dive down to throw grape bombs filled with kerosene.
Because they had to use the fishing net to catch Little White, the warship's speed was reduced to almost zero.
"Boom, boom, boom —"
Orange-Red fire trees with black smoke were planted on the deck, on the bridge, on the crossbows, and even on the sailors.
"Ssss —"
Whitey was like a beggar wrapped in ten tattered bedsheets as it leaped out of the ship from a kilometer away.
"Uh, Dan Chenzi's sword wings seem to have failed."
"Boom —" The Great Black Dragon Flame spewed out, and under Danny's control, it turned into a light red cloud of fire, enveloping Little White within.
"Beep, beep, beep!" The fishing net hanging on its body quickly burned and fell off.
"Ssss!" Little White, who was relaxed, raised its head and let out a long howl. There was an indescribable carefree and … anger in its howl.
— — I want to burn them to death.
In the dragon spirit state, Little White sent a mental wave to Danny.
"Wait for the second bird to take the lead."
Danny comforted it, and once again combined with Blackie to become the "Holy Megalosaurus".
It circled above the four burning ships and roared angrily at the ships below, "This is the result of resisting the True Dragon."
"Your captain is dead, surrender immediately!"
"Woo woo —"
In the fleet, a ship called "Sea Wolf" sounded the horn again, and there was also flag language, "Calm down, don't panic, Sea Wolf is the new flagship!"
There was also a crew member who shouted, "The pterosaurs can't spit fire, and they are no longer lethal after throwing kerosene bombs."
Dani couldn't keep her face straight.
Little White sensed its mother's emotions and immediately …
"Wait!" Danny called Little White to stop with a serious expression.
This was because the Sea Wolf was not the head of the fleet, nor was it the tail of the fleet.
Other than the other three ships in the rhombus formation, there were many other rhombus formations around it, and the small rhombus formations combined to form a large rhombus.
In other words, after Little White swooped down, it was no longer facing the fishing nets of the four ships. The large rhombus formation and the dozen or so ships nearby all covered the new flagship.
This was a trap!
Or rather, this was the plan that the alliance had discussed long ago.
"Of course, I have to nibble from the side bit by bit." Danny sneered.
Little White swooped down again, but its target was not the Sea Wolf, but the ship at the edge of the front.
Moreover, this time, there were no pterosaurs throwing bombs.
Little White broke through two or three layers of fishing nets, and after burning the ship, it immediately fled far away. It jumped out of the sea and let Danny help it clean the fishing net wrapped around its body.
Then, it attacked the rhombus formation that had lost a corner and bit off the second corner.
This time, there were fewer fishing nets on its body.
However, Little White did not have the chance to burn the remaining two ships.
From the time it fell into the water to returning to Danny's side and burning the fishing net on its body, it took a quarter of an hour.
It was enough for the remaining two ships to get close to the other rhombus formation.
Thus, Little White could only look for its next target.
"Boom — Crack —"
Balls of smoke rose, and ships broke in the dragon flames. Some sank to the bottom of the sea, while others became torches floating on the surface of the sea.
A few smokers seemed to have thrown more than a dozen cigarette butts on the exquisite tablecloth that was inlaid with tulip ribbons.
"Woo woo —"
From 10 am to 2: 30 pm, after losing 15 ships in more than four hours, the new flagship, the Sea Wolf, sounded the horn again.
— — Formation!
The remaining 85 ships did not give up the rhombus formation of four ships, but the small rhombus formations were close together and connected into a grid.
The previous rhombus formation was very scattered, but now it was as compact as a net. When Little White attacked any ship at the edge, it would face the attacks of at least five or six ships.
However, although the defensive effect of this formation was good, it also greatly reduced the speed, which was equivalent to hovering on the surface of the sea.
Dani smiled coldly. Big Black, Little Green, Little Gold, and the other three Pterodactyls scattered the grapeshot.
"Boom boom boom boom!"
Another ten ships caught fire. Three of them were on fire and could not be saved. The rest were covered in black smoke, and a large part of the deck collapsed.
There was even a ship whose mast was burned off, and it completely lost the chance to return to the New Guise Port.
"What should we do now?"
Captain Elyos, who was hiding on an ordinary warship, stared at the black dragon in the sky with bloodshot eyes. His heart was filled with hesitation and fear.
He had never thought that a mere white dragon could force the most elite First Fleet of the Alliance into a dead end.
The fishing net tactic could effectively defend against the "mouth-stealing dragon" in the sea. The Dragon Slayer Crossbow prevented the Megalosaurus from diving down and spitting fire. The moving ships had a high chance of avoiding the kerosene bombs falling from the sky.
Logically speaking, the fleet should not be in danger since the sea and air were defended.
However, the above three defenses could not be combined into one.
If they wanted to fire the kerosene bombs, they had to accelerate. However, if they accelerated, they would not be able to form a tight formation. Without a tight formation, the Dragon Slayer Crossbow, which was difficult to turn and slow to reload, would be much weaker.
If a ship did not have the protection of other ships, the Megalosaurus could even stare at the crossbow on the deck and dodge the arrows like how Neo dodged bullets.
However, stopping on the surface of the sea and forming a tight formation was not enough. Elyos was 100% sure that Dragon Queen's fleet was quickly approaching.
With the kerosene bombs transported by the fleet, the six pterosaurs could casually lay "grape eggs".
If they were to engage in a boarding battle with Dragon Queen's fleet, their sailors would be fighting for their lives while the other Megalosaurus would be able to dive to the bottom of the sea and burn the ships without any danger.
"Sigh, if only there was a fleet lying in ambush outside the Megalosaurus' vision!" Elyos sighed.
Actually, it was not that the Alliance did not foresee this awkward situation.
They even came up with a solution: the two fleets would be 50 kilometers apart and move side by side.
Fleet A was targeted by Dragon Queen and immediately used a messenger crow to inform Fleet B. Fleet A would take the brunt of the attack while Fleet B would insert itself between Fleet A and the Mother Of Dragons' fleet or set up an ambush.
While Fleet A was holding back the Megalosaurus, Fleet B would use a proper naval battle to forcefully devour the Dragon Queen's navy. The First Fleet had retreated from Toros to carry out this plan.
When Dragon Queen attacked New Jis Port, the First Fleet, which was floating in the open sea, would attack the Queen's fleet.
This way, even if they could not kill the Megalosaurus, they would be able to seize control of the sea. The Alliance was strong and had a loss ratio of two to one or even three to one.
Even if it was a loss ratio of ten to one, the Alliance could still tolerate it.
But now …
Because Toros had fallen, the Alliance naturally thought, "As expected, we were tricked again. Dragon Queen created a diversion to lure out the First Fleet and easily took over Toros, which had lost its naval power."
— War God Yuan Kai's language.
Hence, the First Fleet, which was hiding in the west of the Bay of Sorrows, gave up on the ambush plan and returned to New Jis immediately.
In the end, they met the Dragon Queen at their doorstep …
New Jis, a conference room converted from an ordinary house.
The leaders of the Alliance sat around a round table and passed a letter to each other.
After reading it, some were dejected, some were anxious, some were terrified, some were gritting their teeth …
This was a letter from the First Fleet.
The moment he saw the dragons, the captain, Elyos, sent a messenger crow to New Jis.
After a long while, War God Yuan Kai said, "I have said many times, don't play tricks with the Dragon Queen. Building a solid base and fighting a stupid battle is the way to go."
At this moment, even the most radical Prince Reese Trade, Traig, was somewhat convinced by the War God.
He looked at the War God respectfully and asked, "What do we do now? Should we save the First Fleet?"
Before Graz Dan could reply, Zaro yelled, "300 kilometers. How do we save them?"
Zaro was the commander of the Third Fleet. He cared more about this than Cavalry Commander Graz Dan because if they were to save the First Fleet, he would be the one to attack the Mother Of Dragons.
Graz Dan thought for a moment and said, "Tell Elyos to act according to the situation. If they meet Danny Alice's fleet before nightfall, they will engage in a chaotic battle. Don't worry about losses. Try to kill as many enemies as possible.
If the enemy ships still don't appear after nightfall, break up the formation and use the cover of the night to break out of the encirclement! "
At this point, War God let out a low chuckle.
"Hehehe, actually, this is also an opportunity. The Dragon Queen's fleet traveled more than 1,000 kilometers for the First Fleet, right? "
"You're saying that she's going to attack New Jis? Then, should we retreat? Without the First Fleet, we won't be able to defend the port! "the representative of Koh Chang Island said in shock.
"No, we have to teach the Dragon Queen a lesson in blood. We have to let her know that she can't be too greedy!"
The War God smiled confidently.
