When Someril finished her words, Zhang Lisheng knew that things were gradually getting out of his control.
He also knew that the work that the Atlanteans did that seemed ridiculous to him was, in fact, full of wisdom. The reason these smart people would be deceived by him was because of the information asymmetry.
"When you think that the world is full of idiots, you're actually the idiot …" Putting on a contemplative look, the young man lowered his head and covered his mouth as he muttered silently. Sighing secretly, he nodded and said, "Madam Someril, your plan is very good. I can discuss it with the Wizard Li headman."
"That's great, doctor. I believe that with your position in the tribe, this matter will definitely be feasible." Someril threw out the last straw that broke the camel's back. "Didn't the Wizard Li unify Shrimp B1 Island last time because of the help of the US army stationed on the island's air strike? With that example, the Wizard Li tribesmen will definitely accept this kind of beneficial and harmless request again."
Just like this, the detailed information revealed by the Atlanteans finally made the cautious Zhang Lisheng choose to compromise.
Six days later, on a rainy day, the Shrimp World No. 2's explorers boarded a steel warship and set out to sea with thousands of other warships from the 17 island ports on the Wizard Li's outer islands. They converged into a steel torrent at the proven starting point of the sailing route and galloped towards the target 2,500 kilometers away.
The warship this time was already loaded with the imitation artillery made by the genius chief craftsman of the Wizard Li tribe, Aruba. Due to the unique characteristics of the black iron produced by the Hellfire Archipelago that was exceptionally tough and easy to disperse, the Wizard Li artillery that was integrated with the hull of the gun carriage had a much larger caliber than the artillery of the mainlanders.
Unfortunately, even though the raw materials for making gunpowder blocks could be produced on the 18 islands in the Wizard Li tribe, the output was not large. For this reason, the main role of these artillery was not to be used in offensive battles but to share the pressure of the chief warriors who had successfully transplanted the Gold Core fragments of the sea spiritual monsters to protect the fleet from the invasion of the giant monsters in the sea.
After sailing non-stop in the sea for seven days, the newly added elite weapons on the battleships were not put to use at all. When the Wizard Li fleet was about to reach their destination smoothly, under the blue sky, several dozens of water columns suddenly gushed up from the vast sea.
From afar, those water columns were only as thick as a pencil and the size of a bamboo pole. However, when Bansaru, the flagship captain of the Wizard Li fleet, carefully observed the distance with a telescope inlaid with bright and clear crystals, his face immediately turned solemn.
However, after going through the test of the tribe's expansion war, the young captain had already become calmer, even though he had already determined that the animals spraying water in the sea were a group of giant sea monsters.
Moreover, he was eighty percent sure that the fleet's course would coincide with their swimming trajectory. If he ignored it, the two sides would definitely collide fiercely. However, he still calmly waited until the last moment, and only lowered the binoculars after he was completely sure.
"Order the fleet to stop moving. The vanguard battleships are to form a circular battle formation and wait for my next order." Inside the cockpit, Bansaru held the rudder and turned it lightly as he ordered loudly.
"Yes, Sir! The fleet will stop moving and form a circular battle formation to await your orders!" After the herald repeated the captain's order, he strode out of the cockpit.
Very soon, the order was conveyed from the flagship to the ears of all the captains by the Super Hellfireman's strange ability. Not long after, the vanguard of the fleet that was lined up in five rows on the sea that stretched for hundreds of kilometers first formed five small circles before slowly merging into a big circle.
The Shrimp World No. 2's explorers, who were originally in the cabin discussing what to do next after arriving at Scorpion Island, felt the abnormality of the ship. Someril stood up and said, "Looks like there's an accident.
In that case, let's do it this way. When we arrive at Scorpion Island, Guteali, Kazanoerki, the Kazanona siblings, and Captain Nordick will lead the Earth warriors to fight together. Since Dr. Lisheng must go to the battlefield according to Wizard Li's custom, we must pay special attention to his protection. As for the others, stay on the ship.
If there's no objection, we'll go out and see what's going on outside. "
Upon hearing Someril's decisive words, Hatton and Pocky, who belonged to the FBI and the CIA, could not help but frown. It was apparent that they were not satisfied with such an arrangement.
However, they did not have the courage to break away from the protection of the Atlanteans and the Earth's military elite warriors to go to the battlefield. They could only swallow their anger and helplessly follow everyone out of the cabin with a blank expression on their faces and stepped onto the deck.
At this time, the Wizard Li fleet's forward circular battle formation had already been formed. The giant monsters in the sea were also about to swim across the fleet's predetermined course. Originally, there was no longer a chance for the two to cross paths.
However, all of a sudden, the leader of the group of sea monsters that was swimming leisurely at the front let out an earth-shattering roar that sounded like a yak. Raising its triangular poisonous snake-like head, it spewed out a water column that was hundreds of meters high and shook its long neck as it charged towards the fleet.
Under its lead, all of the sea monsters also changed their swimming direction and rushed towards the Wizard Li fleet.
"Are you treating us as prey? Looks like we can offer the sea monster fish to the Great Majesty to eat tonight." Bansaru, who had been observing the movements of the sea monsters, had a cold smirk on the corner of his mouth as he shouted, "Execute the Third Battle Plan! Fire the cannons at full speed!"
As he gave his order, hundreds of cannons with a diameter of about two meters on the side of the flagship on the sea surface shot out dazzling red light and fired at the sea monsters at a terrifying speed of one shot every two seconds.
When the first round of cannonballs shot by the flagship was still drawing a graceful arc in the sky, all of the warships that were facing the sea monsters began to fire their cannons in unison.
The cannonballs landed in the sea and exploded, setting off waves that were dozens of meters high. The aftermath spread out and caused the warships that were thousands of meters away to sway slightly.
Looking at the stormy waves that were rising like mountains in the distance, most of the Shrimp World No. 2's explorers had a sudden change of expression.
"I thought that these natives don't know how to cast cannons at all, that's why they produced such strange cannons with such a large caliber. I thought that the cannonballs they use are huge iron balls …" Harman's lips trembled nervously as he said with a dumbfounded expression, "Sh * t! This is really sh * t! The explosive power of these cannonballs is just like a light tomahawk missile!
How is this possible? Whether it's the materials of the cannons or the synthesis of the ammunition, they shouldn't and can't possibly appear in the hands of a tribe that lives in bark houses … "
"Mr. Harman, this is the horror of the foreign world," Sweltman looked into the distance with a gleam in his eyes. His voice drowned out the roar of the cannons and interrupted the CIA intelligence officer's words, "We can't use the law of our 'universe' to look at this place."
As the two of them were speaking, the sea monsters that were attacked by the circular battle formation no matter how they swam had already been wounded by the artillery bombardment. Thick black blood gushed out of the wounds on their bodies and drifted on the sea.
After being injured, these sea monsters that had always been at the top of the food chain did not have any intention of retreating. Howling madly, they dived into the water and continued to crash into the Wizard Li fleet.
The surging waves showed the location of the sea monsters. Some of the thousands of chief warriors who had successfully transplanted the sea spiritual monster's Gold Core fragment on the deck suddenly howled and transformed into various strange forms, casting their own sorcery power.
Blue light emerged from their bodies and slowly flowed along the deck into the sea, causing the distant sea to roll from the bottom to the top, causing the sea monsters to reveal themselves one by one. It also caused the cannons on the battleships to resound once again.
The power of the Super Hellfiremen was not enough to lift the sea monsters out of the sea, but they could imprison them to float and sink. From time to time, the sea monsters that had become the target of the artillery bombardment soon realized that they would most likely die if they did not escape. In the end, they finally turned around and fled into the distance.
At this point, the situation was completely reversed. On the contrary, the Wizard Li fleet no longer had the thought of letting this group of sea monsters leave alive. One by one, the dragon hawks flapped their wings and flew on the deck of the iron ship before diving towards the fleeing sea monsters. The native warriors on the back of the raptors seized the opportunity when their 'partners' were the closest to their prey and used their spears to stab the wounds of the giant beasts.
"Oh, what are these native dwarfs riding on the big birds trying to do? Are they trying to stab the injured 'whales' to death with 'toothpicks'?" The unexpected fierce battle made Pokey's mouth dry. Contrary to his usual serious attitude, he actually joked.
Beside him, Alison used a telescope to see the wounds on the sea monsters in the distance that were torn by the artillery fire. Not long after they were stabbed by the native warriors riding on the dragon hawks, a metallic luster began to appear on the wounds.
Alison, whose blood gradually turned from black to emerald green, pondered for a while and said uncharacteristically solemnly, "Mr. Pokey, it's true that you won't be able to stab the whales to death with ordinary toothpicks, but it's not necessarily the same for toothpicks that are smeared with poison.
Don't look at these Wizard Li tribesmen with contempt. They can produce excellent ships and weapons. They also have incredible sailing skills, war literacy, and supernatural power. They're a nation worthy of respect. "
Being lectured by a Department of Defense intelligence officer who was more than ten years younger than him, a dissatisfied expression crept upon Pokey's face. When he was about to open his mouth to say something, he suddenly heard a series of loud cries in his ears. Then, he watched a huge sea monster with a body length of more than 200 meters flipping its belly that was covered with thick white scales in the green blood as it died miserably, drifting with the wind on the sea.
"Lieutenant Alison, when you were still in elementary school, I was already a qualified intelligence officer," The FBI intelligence officer looked at everything with an even more grave expression. After a moment of silence, he whispered, "Our neighbors in New York are far more powerful than we imagined. There's no need for you to remind me, I'll also emphasize this in the report."
