Hearing the exclamation of the sailors on the deck, everyone in the cabin rushed out.

Su Lun didn't know why, but he had a slightly ominous premonition in his heart.

Isn't fog formed naturally?

He thought of something called "fog of war," which is a large-scale artificial fog created on the battlefield to conceal the movements of troops.

Su Lun suddenly had a thought in his mind: Someone was squatting on him!

The sea seems to be endless and vast, but in fact there are only one or two mature shipping routes from the Port of Kadurante to the Northland.

Suellen estimated the voyage and found that their current location should be in a place called the "Bartolomeu Strait". This is a strait named after the great navigator who opened this route.

This sea area is like the narrow middle part of a funnel, getting narrower and narrower. Until near the strait, you will encounter a large reef area, and passing sea vessels can only be safe if they pass through a fixed route.

Therefore, this is also a place where pirates often hang out.

If someone intercepts you, this is one of the best ambush locations...

But there was no sound of fighting, indicating that the situation did not seem to be too urgent, at least it would not be an emergency such as encountering a giant sea monster, pirates, or running aground on a rock.

As thoughts flashed through his mind, Su Lun put away the books and cautiously headed to the deck.

He was also curious about what the sailors saw that made them exclamate like that.

Then when he looked around, he saw the huge thing in the fog in front of him, and was shocked.

A very huge steam steel battleship appeared in front of me!

The medium-sized sailing ship of the "Maupassant" that Suellen was staying in now was like a cat compared to a lion, looking so weak in front of that exaggerated giant ship.

This is a huge battleship like a previous aircraft carrier, as high as twenty or thirty stories. Three huge chimneys are spewing billowing black gas. Huge rivets inlay steel plates around the hull, as if to

This giant thing is covered with a layer of armor, giving people an indestructible and strong visual impact. The bow is as sharp as an ax blade, and there is a golden horn in the shape of a lion's head on the top. The runes are overflowing, and it is visible to the naked eye, as if it is solid.

Any ship that collides with it will be instantly destroyed into powder.

The most exaggerated thing is that the ship is filled with huge cannons of various calibers.

Like the spikes on the back of a hedgehog, it shows its ferociousness.

There are six gun barrels at the front and rear of the ship, each with a giant main gun that is twenty to thirty meters long. In addition, the ship is covered with turrets, with thousands of densely packed gun barrels. There is also a giant whaling harpoon.

, alchemy crossbows, heavy machine gun consoles, all kinds of war weapons that make people’s scalp numb just by looking at them!

More is good, bigness is beauty, caliber is justice, and within range is truth!

This is the concept of warship manufacturing in this age of steam machinery.

This steel battleship perfectly explains the meaning of this sentence.

huge!

Lots of guns!

Solid!

The ten sailing wooden ships heading for the Northland fleet all stopped in front of the giant steel ship. People rushed onto the deck, and they were all shocked by the steel giant they saw in front of them.

"How can there be a huge steel ship here! Oh my God, is it the fleet of the Marfa Empire that is coming?"

"Look, it's not Marfa's ship. This is the flag of Archduke Raphael on the ship!"

"How is it possible? How can our empire use such a huge warship?!"

""

Besides being shocked, I’m still shocked!

The appearance of this giant battleship completely exceeded the understanding of everyone on board.

When Su Lun saw this battleship, he was shocked and immediately realized something. He felt bad: "Duke Raphael actually secretly developed such a powerful battleship?"

Seeing how shocked the crew members were, it was obvious that there was no news from the outside world.

Now it’s exposed?

Su Lin even guessed that the Luying royal family might not know that Archduke Raphael owned this shop and was a mechanic himself. He could roughly estimate the range of these guns by looking at the caliber and barrel length of the cannons on the ship.

A warship of this tonnage may appear in the Marfa Empire, but it is definitely not possible in Luying!

Because of the technological content in the battleship, it is at least decades ahead of the current Luying battleship!

The larger the turret, the stronger the hull is required to withstand the impact of the artillery. Only steel battleships can be equipped with such a large number of such huge artillery.

And traditional sailing ships are vulnerable to this kind of steel fortress on the sea, even with top-level enchantments and materials. Except for the speed advantage of escaping, nothing else can compete with it!

Just these artillery pieces on a sailing wooden boat are like a rifle shooting a tank, they are not enough to look at!

I saw it and didn’t even have a chance to escape!

No wonder there was fog of war, it turned out to be used to conceal this secret weapon.

However, Su Lun was worried about something else.

Others didn't know what Archduke Raphael was doing here, but he knew it very well.

Not long ago, the pirates under the command of the "King of the North Sea" attacked the Black Barrier Reef and plundered Archduke Raphael's "mine" Old Rington. Yesterday, the [Super Robot Warrior Blueprint] was also auctioned at the Port of Caturante.

Now covered in the fog of war, squatting here, it is obvious that he is here to take revenge.

"Didn't the blueprints be taken away by those people from Mafa last night?"

Su Lun immediately thought of the soul fragment of the mechanical warrior that was stripped off last night: "Our mission is to be a bait."

When I think about it, it’s really possible!

Even if there is a submarine, this is the hinterland of Lu Ying. Those people have obtained the blueprints and want to break through the blockade and escape. It is not that it is impossible, there is also the possibility of being intercepted and killed.

"So this is a plan to attack the east and attack the west. The commander of Namafa's army led his own people to break out and use them as bait to attract firepower. In fact, the blueprint did not leave the port of Kadurante at all last night!"

Su Lun immediately connected all the clues in his mind and restored the general truth of the matter.

Originally he thought that this kind of thing had nothing to do with him, but now it seems that he is implicated.

Moreover, if Archduke Raphael's battleships are stationed here with such great fanfare, they must have some accurate information.

"It seems that those guys have some means of locating the drawings."

Su Lun murmured in his heart.

Moreover, he is now almost certain that the guy with the blueprint is hiding on one of the ships in the fleet!

"It seems like you have bad luck."

Su Lun felt that if he did not leave the port, he would not be implicated.

Could it be that the Druid's prophecy was wrong?

When I came to the sea, instead of receiving protection, I encountered danger.

The giant steel ship that Raphael built in secret has never been exposed while camping, which means that anyone who sees the ship may be silenced.

But obviously, no!

The crisis doesn't just stem from this.

Suddenly, Su Lun had a feeling of being "thought of" by someone.

This feeling is exactly the same as when Jiulingdun was found by those people in Leijiadi for divination!

Su Lun immediately had a premonition that something bad was going on: "Someone is predicting me!"

At this time, on top of the giant ship, a gaze was also locked on it.

Half an hour ago.

Captain's cabin on the battleship "Duke Raphael".

The exquisite magic crystal chandelier illuminates the huge room brightly, and the warm dark yellow light illuminates the cabin with a spring-like atmosphere.

The cabin is elegantly and luxuriously decorated, exuding the noble atmosphere of nobility. On the desk with a huge chart, there is a bottle of expensive red wine from Chateau Bobodo. There is still some unfinished scarlet liquid in the two goblets.

There are still light lip prints on the rim of one of the cups. There are some clothes scattered on the soft cashmere carpet, including black long skirts and women's close-fitting clothes. On the mahogany bed with plain white silk sheets, there is a charming man and a strong man.

The middle-aged man is lingering.

Not long after, the swaying light and shadow on the wall slowly stopped, and some heavy breathing came from the cabin.

After resting for a while, the woman got off the bed naked.

She picked up the clothes scattered on the carpet and chairs, and walked in front of the full-length mirror.

Although the woman's face has retained the charm of time, the luster exuding from the naked and graceful body in the mirror is still as smooth as a girl's skin.

The man also got off the bed, hugged the woman from behind, and kneaded her tenderness and smoothness with his big hands.

The man has a beard and a strong body, but he has a calm and calm look.

This person is none other than the hereditary Duke of the Raphael family, Vogt Raphael.

"Mrs. Portia, your taste is so pleasant."

Hearing this, the beautiful woman broke free from the greedy hand and said, "Oh, Your Majesty the Duke, I am already an old and lustful woman. Your praise should be reserved for those young girls.
