Chapter 357 [Major-General Magic Blade X1 Mechanical Armor](2/4)
A sudden thunder sounded next to my ears!
"Click~"
There was light in front of my eyes for a moment.
Looking again, lightning flashed a few sea miles away, and the sky seemed to be infected with ink, condensing into a large storm cloud at an extremely fast speed.
The sea area affected by thunderclouds is getting wider and wider, and there is a trend of becoming more and more severe.
But in an instant, the sky above the "Princess Fleet" also quickly darkened.
The wind roared outside the window, the waves grew bigger and bigger, and the entire hull swayed.
It looked like they were about to encounter a violent storm.
Su Lun was not surprised when he saw this, but his eyes were filled with joy and he almost blurted out: "Here he comes!"
It is normal to encounter a storm at sea.
But the storm in front of us was unusual.
Experienced navigators will judge the direction and scope of the storm through air pressure, temperature, and humidity. But it definitely doesn't appear out of thin air like it does now.
Su Lun narrowed his eyes slightly while looking at the storm, and murmured: "Tani's talent is a bit special."
Because he temporarily solved the petrification problem of Tani's mother, Su Lun also gained Tani's absolute trust.
Tani told him a secret that only he knew, that is, it was a high probability event that he would definitely encounter a storm when he went to sea, and it was not certain.
But if he is injured, then there is a 100% chance that a storm will occur immediately!
After hearing that he had this ability before, Su Lun immediately thought of this battle plan.
If they escaped out of thin air, they would have no chance of escaping out of range.
Even if they jump into the sea, those royal guards will definitely catch up.
So, they need an excuse to leave the fleet.
And storms and waves are the best cover!
As soon as the storm came, the ship's communicator suddenly returned to normal.
It was clear that the priority was to deal with the storm, not to interrogate.
The commander of the main ship sent an order: "All ships, be careful, there are strange ships approaching in the storm! Fill up the artillery and prepare to sink!"
No one except Suellen and Dr. Banks knew about this plan.
Everyone on the deck was confused and looked into the distance. Sure enough, they saw a pirate ship coming in the wind and waves under the cover of the storm.
No, not one!
Instead, they were densely packed, with dozens of ships in total.
And if you take a closer look, the sails of the ships in the storm are in tatters. There are holes all over the hull, and they look extremely dilapidated. Under the flickering lightning, those broken ships are also covered with a strange light-colored halo, like ghosts.
Boat.
"Ghost Fleet!"
"Oh my God, we actually encountered a ghost fleet!"
"No, the ghost fleet is coming towards us, please avoid it!"
""
Everyone on the deck was shocked when they saw this scene.
There are countless legends of "ghost ships" circulating on this sea, but almost every version is an ominous omen.
But no one noticed that the monocle on Su Lun's left eye in the captain's cabin was shining brightly.
The cursed object [Robert's monocle] can create real illusions, and these ghost ships are naturally illusions.
Su Lun thought that since there was such a good storm environment, a ghost ship would be just in time for the occasion.
It can also conceal the approaching movements of thousands of "Dawn Groups"
The waves on the sea surface were getting bigger and bigger, and waves of several meters were hitting the hull of the boat and shaking violently.
Now that we suddenly encountered a storm and a "ghost fleet", the communications officer naturally couldn't urge Banner to disembark.
In front of nature, human power seems so insignificant.
A sea-going ship can sway with the waves, but how can it keep traveling in its original formation?
The ships of Division 19 were also swaying, quietly getting further and further away.
The ghost fleet was obviously heading for the "Princess Fleet", and the commander was extremely decisive. An order came from the communicator: "Fire!"
boom!
boom!
boom
Hundreds of guns fired in unison, and the cannons on the ships in front spurted out tongues of flame. The sound of gunfire even covered up the thunder, deafening.
"It's now!"
At this time, Su Lun's pupils suddenly shrank, and he grasped the void with his fingers. The thread suddenly pulled, and the countless [War Fog Bombs] that had been prepared on the ship were instantly detonated.
Artillery filling requires intervals, but the fog of war covers a large area in front of you in just an instant.
"Damn it, what are you doing? Do you want to rebel?"
The messenger's angry shouts came from the deck, but the voice suddenly stopped.
The next second Su Lun took action, he took the black sickle at hand and raised the knife, and a space crack cut off a human head.
Gugang
When Su Lun made a move, Banner on the deck also gave a decisive order, "Yang Fan, take the helm and rush out to the south! Everyone, project the fog of war!"
Although the crew members did not understand what was happening, they were almost all old men from the "Steam Party" and they had absolute trust in Banner. After hearing the order, everyone started busy in the mist.
On the sea, more and more [fog bombs] were projected, and the scope of the fog became larger and larger.
"Team 19, what's going on over there!"
"Stop it quickly, or we'll fire!"
""
The commander's angry questioning voice came from the communicator.
Banner didn't respond, so the people there naturally guessed that they were going to escape.
Moreover, there is obviously something fishy about this escape. As long as Marfa's people are not stupid, they can immediately guess that they really have "neuro-mechanical technology" in their hands!
Now that we know that we have the technology, we naturally won’t bomb it indiscriminately.
If a technician is killed by a bomb, this top-secret technology that is nowhere to be found will really be missed.
The sound of the second round of artillery soon came to my ears. It sounded loud, and I could hear the trajectory of the shells. Most of them were too high, and the muzzles were shot towards distant rooms.
This is just a warning.
Seeing this, Su Lun also breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that the other party had not guessed it and sent a round of artillery.
Since they didn't dare to shell, they ignored it and sailed at full speed.
The defense and output of the mechanically modified warships are far superior to those of the 19th Division's pirate ships by countless times, but the only difference is their speed. In addition, storms and waves disrupted the formation, which also made the distance between the two sides wider.
the further away.
When the battle started, Suellen and Dr. Banks also came to the deck. The two stared at the rough sea, as if they wanted to capture something.
Since the ship cannot catch up, then a submarine will definitely be sent.
Storms have much less impact on submarines in seawater.
Banks said in a deep voice: "The mechanical submarine should appear soon."
Everything is going according to plan, but next, the most dangerous situation is coming.
"Um."
Su Lun nodded, coldly took out a few scrolls and threw them towards the water. With a clap of his hands, the Warlock Seal instantly condensed, purple space formations appeared, and six glass jars appeared out of thin air.
"Crack" the glass shattered, and several mechanical octopuses fell into the water with a splash.
In the sea water, the control distance of Su Lun's [Spiritual Tentacles] cannot be too far, so he can only wait and wait for the enemy to come.
There was a strong wind on the sea. Su Lun held a black umbrella and wore a raincoat and stared at the sea indifferently in the heavy rain.
Dr. Banks on the side was also on full alert.
Although he doesn't like fighting, it doesn't mean he has no fighting ability. A mysterious force is isolated an inch away from his body surface, and even the rain can't touch his body.
"coming!"
Su Lun's eyes narrowed.
To be continued...
