"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh …"
Nearly two hundred chain bullets spun and danced, tearing through the air and making strange and terrifying whistling sounds.
Hearing the strange sounds and the whistling black shadows, the Rock Demon was instantly shocked.
He focused his spiritual power on one of the chain bullets and saw it clearly.
Two iron balls of more than ten kilograms, connected to an iron chain, flew over quickly.
Immediately, the Rock Demon felt his scalp go numb, and cold sweat broke out on his back.
Although he didn't know it was a chain bullet, he could tell at a glance that it was a warship's sail with terrifying destructive power.
At this time, the two fleets were only five hundred meters away, and the destructive area of the chain bullets was several times larger.
So, what would the consequences be? It was imaginable.
However, the Rock Demon had no choice. If it was a single person, it could dodge quickly. But this was a warship, and a sail warship at that. It was difficult to even change direction, let alone dodge quickly.
It could only resign itself to fate!
The distance of five hundred meters was stopped in an instant!
"Bang, bang, bang, bang …"
Two hundred chain bullets whistled and smashed into the Rock Demon's fleet.
Loud noises came one after another.
Then, an incomparably horrifying scene appeared.
The chain bullets swept over the crowd, cutting off all the people who passed by, or cutting off half of their bodies.
There was still no pain, and they died instantly, blood spurting wildly.
The chain bullets flew over the warship, tearing apart everything in its path, be it the masts or the sails.
The thick masts looked very sturdy, and even swords couldn't cut them off easily.
However, after being hit by the chain bullets, they were instantly cut in half.
"Bang, bang, bang …"
One by one, the masts were smashed and fell.
The Rock Demon closed its eyes in extreme pain.
Although it had estimated the consequences of this round of chain bullets, it still hurt to the bone when it really happened.
It was too terrifying. It was a complete mess!
"Whoosh …"
Suddenly, there was a whistling sound, and a chain bullet flew over, about to hit the mast behind it.
The flagship of the Rock Demon was very large, more than a thousand tons, and the mast was also very thick. But it was useless. It couldn't stop the chain bullets at all.
Since the beginning of the battle, the flagship of the Rock Demon hadn't been hit, as if it had been blessed.
But at this moment, this luck stopped.
"Ah!" The Rock Demon roared in anger. He raised his black gold saber and slashed.
In an instant, the chain in the middle of the flying chain bullets was cut off, and the two iron balls flew in two different directions.
Bang … One of them smashed into a warship several hundred meters away.
However, the Rock Demon couldn't care less. He climbed up the mast and wanted to see how much damage this round of attack had caused.
…
The chain bullet's damage was too shocking, especially at such a distance of several hundred meters. Facing such a dense fleet, it was practically a suicide mission.
Søren flew a few hundred meters in the air and saw everything clearly.
The accuracy of this round of 200 bullets was almost more than 20% because the rock demon fleet was too densely packed. If the chain bullets flew over the fleet, even if they didn't hit the warships in front, they would still hit the ones behind.
Once hit, the consequences would be fatal.
If it was light, the sails would be completely torn apart. If it was heavy, the mast would be broken.
This round of attacks hit more than fifty warships of the Rock Demons.
Moreover, almost all of them were heavily injured.
Of course, the Rock Demons had thousands of warships. Including the previous damage, only a hundred or so warships were damaged. The damage was less than 10%, which wasn't fatal.
But the scary thing was that dozens of warships either lost their sails or were damaged. Instantly, the entire warships lost control. They either lost their direction, drifted with the wind, or spun on the spot.
The Rock Demons had a thousand warships. For ease of command, the distance between the warships wasn't large. The entire fleet moved in a fixed direction. At this moment, after dozens of warships were disrupted, the entire fleet's rhythm and speed were affected.
Originally, the Rock Demons' fleet was faster than Søren's fleet. They could catch up by about 100 meters every eight minutes.
Now, the two fleets' speed was actually the same. In fact, the Rock Demons' fleet was even slower.
This was too terrifying!
This meant that the two fleets were always maintaining a distance of about 500 meters. In that case, the Rock Demons would never be able to hit Søren's fleet. Meanwhile, Søren's chain bullets were endless.
The Rock Demons didn't dare to imagine the consequences if this continued.
The chain bullets' attacks were too shocking. After another twenty or thirty rounds of attacks, the Rock Demons' fleet would be completely destroyed.
"Change formation, change formation!" The Rock Demon ordered the entire fleet to disperse.
Moreover, the fifty thousand Rock Pirates' fleet was divided into two groups. They would surround Søren's fleet from the left and right wings respectively.
However, this was a naval battle. The Rock Demons didn't have any air power. Any order had to be passed down one by one.
On the other hand, he had a thousand warships that stretched for dozens of kilometers on the sea. It would take a long time for all the orders to be passed down.
In addition, the Rock Demons' fleet changed formation. The fifty thousand fleets left the main formation and flanked from the two wings. Who knew how long it would take to complete this strategy.
During this process, the Rock Demons' fleet was completely in a passive state.
Søren's fleet seized this opportunity. Not only did they not move away, but they also moved closer to the Rock Demons' fleet.
Within 400 meters!
At this distance, the Rock Demons' fleet could only take a beating. They couldn't fight back at all. They didn't have any large-scale weapons that could reach 400 meters.
On Søren's side, the second round of chain bullets was ready.
"Fire, fire, fire!"
Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh …
The second round of chain bullets whistled through the air. The sky was covered in darkness. Once again, ghostly wails and wolf howls could be heard.
In just a few seconds, two hundred chain bullets whistled through the air.
Then, it was hell once again.
Wherever the chain bullets passed, be it the pirates, the sails, or the masts, everything was fiercely cut.
"Ahhhhh …"
A series of shrill cries rose and fell.
Of course, these screams didn't come from the pirates who were hit. They died instantly and couldn't make a sound.
Instead, after the chain bullets flew past, they left a ground full of broken corpses. The surviving pirates nearby let out horrified screams.
These pirates weren't afraid of death. Especially the Rock Pirates, they actively chased after death.
Therefore, before every battle, these pirates would take out their knives and kill themselves. In battle, even if they were slashed, they would smile and lick their own blood, or even swallow the flesh on their wounds.
But that was because they were familiar with that kind of battle and worshiped that kind of battle.
But now, everything had become unknown.
They didn't even see the enemy before turning into a pile of broken corpses.
Anyone, no matter how brave, would feel fear in the face of the unknown!
…
The Rock Demon's huge fleet was already very fast and nimble in changing formations on the battlefield.
However, it still took more than an hour to complete the task.
During this time, Søren seized the golden time and attacked like a greedy beast.
Motivated by the results, the cannoneers' blood boiled. The interval between each round of firing actually became shorter.
In more than an hour, a total of eight rounds were fired.
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh …"
Eight rounds of chain bullets, three to four hundred meters away.
That scene was completely unimaginable.
In this relatively static state, the cannoneers' condition became better and better, and their shots became more accurate.
"Boom, boom, boom …"
Every time the cannon fired, countless lives were lost, and countless warships were destroyed.
The Rock Demon's heart was bleeding. He even closed his eyes, completely ignoring the terrifying casualties.
Moreover, the flagship under his feet had a total of three rounds of chain bullets.
Every time he jumped up, his knife would fall, and the iron chain in the middle of the chain bullets would be cut off.
But how many people in the army were as skilled as him? He was the only one!
But even at this time, the Rock Demon still had no regrets.
There was only one thought in his mind.
"Søren, just you wait. Wait for me to finish changing formations, wait for my fleet to successfully outflank you, wait for me to completely surround you, and then you are doomed!"
Although Søren had the upper hand, the Rock Demon still despised him.
At this time, the Rock Demon's fleet was changing formations, and was going to outflank Søren's fleet from both sides. Everyone could see this intention.
Therefore, Søren should seize this golden opportunity to quickly retreat, and once again widen the distance between the two fleets. Then, the process of the chase would be repeated.
Everyone knew that distance was Søren's greatest weapon.
As long as the distance was widened, Søren would always be able to take the initiative to attack, and the Rock Demon would never be able to hit Søren.
But Søren was too greedy. He seized the opportunity when the Rock Demon's fleet almost stopped, and crazily fired chain bullets, trying to maximize the results.
The Rock Demon thought of an animal, the python!
The python finally caught a huge prey, which was even bigger than its body. It should have escaped immediately, because this prey had other companions, and they were about to arrive.
But the python was reluctant, and forcibly swallowed the prey, which was bigger than itself, into its stomach, and then it could no longer move.
Soon, the prey's companions arrived, and this python's stomach was several times bigger, so it couldn't escape at all, and was easily killed by the prey's companions.
Now, the Rock Demon was using the central fleet as bait to attract Søren's fleet, and then sent two fleets of the Rock Pirates to surround them.
Although this process was very painful, and it was completely passive, once the two flanks were completed, the Rock Demon believed that Søren's doomsday would come. Because it had lost its greatest weapon, distance!
The Rock Demon standing on the tall mast saw that the two fleets, a total of more than five hundred warships, had completely left the central fleet, completed the formation change, and started to outflank Søren's fleet.
The Rock Demon let out a long sigh of relief, and laughed sinisterly in its heart, "Short-sighted and greedy Søren, you're finished!"
At this time, an Islander Lord came forward and said, "My King, we've roughly calculated our casualties."
The Rock Demon said, "How many?"
The Islander Lord said, "Three hundred warships are damaged, and more than two hundred of them are almost out of control, completely losing their combat strength. The remaining one hundred have their sails severely damaged, and their speed is greatly affected. And the casualties are more than ten thousand, almost all of them dead, and a few of them are heavily injured. "
Hearing this, the Rock Demon almost vomited blood.
And his heart was dripping blood!
The battle had only started for a mere six hours, and he had already lost more than twenty percent of his warships, and more than ten percent of his navy.
And Søren's fleet was completely undamaged!
In fact, the Rock Demon fleet didn't even have a chance to attack.
"Flank at full speed, outflank!" The Rock Demon roared, "When we finish outflank them, Søren will be completely dead, dead!"
…
At this time, more than a thousand miles to the north!
Immortal Abode Island Lord Seagull was leading the Immortal Abode Island's main fleet, majestically heading south.
Although the scale of his fleet couldn't compare to the Rock Demon's hundred thousand navy, it was still very imposing!
At this time, he was leisurely standing on the bow of the ship, admiring the beautiful, majestic, and unchanging scenery of the sea.
Beside him, Hai Wuyan and Henar seemed a little restless and impatient.
"What's the hurry? The scenery of the sea is so beautiful, why not calm down and enjoy it? "Seagull said.
Hai Wuyan said, "Father, we're too slow. The Rock Demon fleet is so fierce, and several times stronger than Søren. By the time we arrive, the battle will have already ended, and Søren's fleet will have already been annihilated. "
Seagull said, "Don't worry, it won't be that fast. Søren is cunning. Although he can't win, he knows how to escape. In the previous naval battle, didn't he drag your fleet to run for a few days and nights? When our fleet arrives, it'll be just in time to cut off Søren's retreat route and give him the final fatal blow. Don't forget, our purpose in participating in this war is to loot the Rubble Salt Field, the Magic Mirror Island, and the Fire Oil Island. "
At this time, a black dot suddenly appeared in the sky. It was a griffin, approaching from afar.
When it finally flew above the fleet, Seagull clearly saw the person on the griffin. It was the peerless, fairy-like Princess Jung Yeon.
Seagull said, "A foreigner greets Your Royal Highness. Your Royal Highness really has good self-restraint. Even at this time, you're still so calm and collected."
What he meant was that Søren was about to be finished, and so was Jung Yeon, yet she was still putting on an otherworldly fairy-like posture for who to show?
Although Seagull was very scheming, he really hated Søren's previous rudeness. At this time, facing Søren again, he couldn't help but make sarcastic remarks. It really went against Seagull's usual demeanor.
Facing Seagull's sarcasm, Princess Jung Yeon acted as if she didn't understand. Instead, she asked, "Why did Lord Seagull come? To fulfill the alliance agreement and lead the fleet to join forces with our army to attack the rock demons? "
"Hahahaha …" Seagull laughed and said, "Your Royal Highness, why don't I remember having any alliance agreement? Could it be that I've gotten amnesia? Or is Your Royal Highness delusional? "
Princess Jung Yeon said, "Since Lord Seagull isn't here to fulfill the alliance agreement to support our army, then why is he here?"
Seagull said, "Søren's perverse acts and wild ambitions have provoked the wrath of the heavens and the resentment of the people. Although I, Seagull, am a foreigner, I have to respond to His Royal Highness Zhi Li's call to enforce justice on behalf of the heavens. I've already signed the declaration. This time, I've led the army here to suppress Søren and eliminate this traitor! "
