"Sigh, it's so cold."
The gray wasteland was filled with endless fog. Rorschach stood on a high hill and looked into the distance.
Behind him was a steel behemoth that was burning and emitting smoke.
Its large tonnage made it slow, so it could only choose to counterattack or take the attack head-on. High-speed evasion was never an option from the start.
The fog was the best concealment device. By the time the passenger airship realized that it was under attack, it was already too late.
But looking at it from another perspective, the other side of the Armored Cannons' design was that unless the airship's engine and ammunition storage were hit on the spot, it was still possible for it to be forced to land.
The damage had already happened, but Rorschach noticed that there weren't many casualties, so the airship wouldn't be scrapped just like that.
In a sense, this was still a serious accident and mistake. No matter how bad the view was, the anti-aircraft radar and security personnel would have been effective. At the very least, it wouldn't be like now, where the airship didn't even know who hit it and how it was hit.
"That's ridiculous. We still don't know who hit it."
"It wasn't me."
Su Nanna's expression was neither worried nor happy, like a child who had nothing to do with this.
But Rorschach didn't want to discourage her. No matter how things developed, her legend would probably open a new chapter. The legend that had been forgotten with great difficulty would be remembered by everyone once again.
Perhaps, "All Ships Sink" would replace Su Nanna's official title. Right, what was her official title? Wasn't it "All Ships Sink"? Was it "All Ships Sink"?
Rorschach fell into deep thought. And a certain someone who was hit by Rorschach's unintentional words had nothing to say.
"It's not like that. I often take ships. I've taken flights from Novodonia to Cape Town and Mount Sainte several times."
"You actually didn't get rejected by the shipping company?"
Seviala's face was full of fear. She was on the deck when the plane crashed and was almost thrown out. Now, she was crazily stabbing her savior.
"Couldn't I have taken the flight before I got rejected? It's all superstition, superstition, sob sob sob. "
Thinking that she would probably never be able to get rid of this title for the rest of her life, and that no title or reputation could surpass that of Su Nanna, who pursued the pursuit of the Light and Dark Ranger, she inexplicably sobbed.
Well, Rorschach also knew that he could not blame her, but sometimes, there were some things that really could not be reasoned with.
It should be the carrier company's responsibility that the ship was attacked, but Rorschach also knew that they couldn't be blamed.
After all, they were a professional passenger transport company, not soldiers. After all …
"This is crazy. This is the first time that a scheduled flight has been shot down. This is a provocation to all the Aishi People in the wasteland."
There was no doubt that this had never happened before, so no one expected that the passenger ship would be attacked one day, and they let down their guard.
The frightened passengers huddled together and talked loudly, while the captain who was being questioned retreated in defeat. There were probably not many ordinary tourists who dared to go to Cape Town at this time.
The sailors and staff were rushing to repair the ship, but everyone knew that the chances of it being repaired were not high. The Harlet Wasteland was never safe at night, and there were already passengers and security personnel spontaneously forming a defensive line.
Considering that the attackers might not have left, there were already scouts on the move, but Rorschach expressed pessimism about their harvest. This was not a safe area, and he hoped that they would not be dragged away by the midnight hunters of the wasteland.
"Is it repaired well?"
"How dare they attack us? Did you guarantee that it's absolutely safe? "
"Is the lifeboat good? Give it to us, we're in a hurry to go to that damned Seymour pigsty to save our business! "
"Why should we give it to you? Where are my three factories? My time is more valuable than gold! "
The night wind carried the complaints and quarrels to Rorschach's ears, but he did not have the time to pay attention to it. His gaze pierced through the fog and looked at the "torch".
It was a burning bonfire, and if Rorschach was not mistaken, it was a little familiar.
He quietly walked towards Su Nanna who was still squatting on the ground looking for ants and asked.
"You said you've been on a few ships, have you been on a flight from Dounia to Cape Town?"
"Yes, I've been on it a few times, and after the visa was rejected, I had to go over a few times. This time, it's really not my fault!"
Rorschach nodded silently, he knew that this could not be taken seriously, and this was not the time to ask. Anyway, he did not intend to be on the same ship as Su Nanna even if he was beaten to death.
"Then, do you know the type of ship used between Cape Town and Dounia? Is it the same Flying Elephant 3? "
Sensing Rorschach's seriousness, Su Nanna stood up, silently recalled for a moment, and nodded.
"Well, yes, the elephant trunk on the deck is particularly eye-catching. I won't remember wrongly, they are all operated by the same company. It's quite normal to purchase a batch of passenger ships. Why, is there something wrong? "
Hearing this, Rorschach, whose guess was confirmed, could only helplessly smile bitterly.
"About three or four kilometers to the southeast, I also saw the elephant trunk main cannon, it's still burning. Considering the frequency of flights here, it should be from Vila Nova Dônia. It seems that we are quite lucky. "
At this time, Su Nanna was completely serious. The next moment, she stood on the void platform made of silver lines, and a stream of light flashed through her cold eyes, like the divine brilliance of the dark moon, allowing her to penetrate the darkness.
These days, Su Nanna didn't waste any time, she also learned a lot of new energy.
"Yes, it's from Vila Nova Dônia, it should have been an hour or two ago, it seems that we are quite lucky."
Three minutes later, Su Nanna made a decision, she even reported the serial number of the ship.
The two looked at each other, the factual basis of the attack was confirmed, this time, the fun was really big.
Previously, they thought it was just a sudden attack, but now it was confirmed that it was organized and planned, a series of attacks that completely blocked all the routes. The two were not on the same level of crisis.
The former was a lone wolf style surprise attack, even if there were losses, it was a one-time thing, but the latter was probably the beginning of a whole plan, just the beginning of a whole set of attacks.
In front of them, there should be someone intercepting all the passenger ships, cutting off the connection between Cape Town and other areas.
In fact, intercepting cargo ships wasn't a difficult matter. In order to avoid accidentally entering a high-threat area, the passenger ships' routes were relatively fixed, and they wouldn't fly too high, they even had to pass through specific caves.
If there was a sudden attack, it would be enough to block the necessary nodes and ambush the unsuspecting. Even if it was possible to guard against the later attacks, the first attack was basically impossible to guard against in advance.
Rockets, high-level magic, artillery, there were too many attacks that could pierce through the bottom of a slowly passing airship.
It was already considered good luck that they were only sunk. Perhaps there were high-ranking descenders on the other ship who died inexplicably, inexplicably went to that world in their dreams, and didn't know how to explain it to their gods. Considering that Vila Nova Dônia's reaction couldn't be slower than theirs, the possibility of there being descenders from small churches on that flight was quite high.
"Is there someone on our side? Lori? Damn it. "
His communication with Lori was cut off again. Although it was expected, it made him a little unhappy. However, Rorschach wasn't worried. The probability of the Game Church sending people on that passenger ship wasn't high.
As for why it was a descender from a small church, it was because the large churches had their own ships. For such a major event, they would most likely send people on a ship. The route wasn't fixed, and they were highly vigilant, so it was unlikely that an accident would occur.
"Railroad?"
"That's easier to deal with. Just blow up the railroad tracks."
Rorschach and Su Nanna's conversation seemed to be off topic, but they almost simultaneously thought that since even the ship was intercepted, the railroad network from Vila Nova Dônia to Cape Town would also be attacked.
As long as they blew up the railroad tracks and destroyed the bridge that the railroad passed through, the repair time would probably be calculated in days. They also had to be careful of the other party's repeated destruction.
"We have to hurry."
"Yes, we have to hurry."
It was a simple exchange of opinions, but the two of them had the same battle strategy.
The other party would stop them at all costs, but it was impossible to completely stop them. What they were fighting for was time.
Clearly, something important was happening in Cape Town. Their previous experience told them that the longer they delayed, the more dangerous it would be. In the end, the difficulty of dealing with it would increase exponentially.
The basis of strategy was to do what the opponent didn't want to see. Now, the most important thing was to find a way to reach Cape Town.
However, in this wasteland, there were no villages or shops. How could they rush over?
Could it be that they had to rescue the lifeboat with those people? Rorschach hesitated for a moment and gave up on this idea. There wasn't much distance left, and there was only one route left. The lifeboat would probably be shot down.
Walk over? That would be too crazy. The boat would take four to five hours, but walking would take at least two days. The danger along the way was extremely high, and it was very likely that they would encounter a second interception.
"Should we swing over?"
"Don't be silly. This isn't a forest. How are you going to swing in the wasteland? Constantly shooting silver needles to weave a net? I guarantee that you'll die of exhaustion in less than half of the journey. "
Thinking of the high mobility of his two dark ranger subclasses, Rorschach's idea was instantly rejected by Su Nanna.
"Magic armor?"
"There must be some on the boat. How about we snatch one?"
"Yes, there's no other way. We'll have to compensate them later."
"What about weapons and equipment?"
"Find them and 'borrow' them. Just collect more. You can get a full set of land combat equipment. I also want a sniper cannon. Help me find one. We'll compensate them later. There's no other way. After all, this is a special situation. "
"Yes, it's fine. We're the fifth largest church in the wasteland. The other party should give us some face."
"It's fine if they don't. The result won't be different anyway."
"Hehe, you're really bad."
"Miss Su, you're not bad either."
The two of them were in cahoots. Their conversation was becoming more and more criminal. As they chatted, a complete criminal plan was about to come out.
"I have a way. There's no need to commit a crime. I can't guarantee that it'll work, but we can try. There's still a sixty to seventy percent chance of success. "
However, what surprised Rorschach was that the person who gave this suggestion wasn't Su Nanna, who was more experienced than him, but Seviala, who was here for the first time.
