Extraordinary Sailing

Take the third-tier battleship "Steel Dragon" as the flagship and pilot ship.

Three large cargo ships carrying the fighters of Kungang Taita's direct line were lined up behind it in a single file, like four huge hills meandering on the vast black sea.

"Congratulations to General Kungang, this time I will make great contributions to His Majesty and the Kingdom."

There are only three people sitting here in the captain's room, two of them are steel knight Kungang Taita and his adjutant, but the identity of the last one is somewhat surprising.

This is actually a patriarchal cleric of the "Eternal Flame" wearing a white background and a red border robe!

It was he who spoke.

Although it is customary to have a second-rank clergyman as an accompanying priest on the third-tier ship of Silius, the rift between the church and the royalist party has almost become apparent recently.

The appearance of a clergyman in such an operation that deliberately avoided Griffiths and obviously had a very high level of secrecy had to make outsiders think deeply.

But for those who know the inside story, this situation is actually not difficult to understand.

Just as the peak great knight Griffiths completely surrendered to the Church of "Eternal Flame", believing that human beings should dedicate themselves to God. People in the secular world are different, and the so-called servants of God are not much better.

The secular rulers have long seen the essence of the church. Ordinary people cannot control God, but they may influence other mortals. The church has never been monolithic.

By sending out the signal that he was about to be crowned emperor, Philip II, who had some means, was able to see clearly who in the church was the enemy of the kingdom and who might become his friend.

At present, in the "Eternal Flame" church, among the few archbishops whose status is only below the Pope, Archbishop Wycliffe (who belongs to the same fourth rank as the Pope and is eligible to run for the Pope) is one of them.

Because the core concept he advocated said: "Give to God what belongs to God, and what belongs to the king to the king", which immediately scratched Philip II's itch.

In addition, he and most of the members of his faction are Cyrus, and there is a layer of natural allies.

After Philip II married the Habsburg family, under the leadership of the archbishop, they have begun to gradually move closer to Sirius led by Philip II.

Including "Eternal Fire", in the church of the seven true gods and even the church of the demigods, the fundamental scripture enshrined by the priests is so thick that it can kill people, even if you think about it with your ass, you know that it cannot be written by God himself .

However, in a church composed of people, there are differences in the teachings of God, and everyone wants to use their own thoughts to interpret God's will, which is really nothing more than normal.

Archbishop Wycliffe probably represented what is commonly referred to as the Conservatives.

Even within the faction headed by him, some people have openly shouted "Firefire Sect", a new Christian name that distinguishes it from the "Eternal Flame" church, and it seems that the heart of parting ways has been clearly revealed.

Now that they have the support of Cyrus, the world's most powerful country, a new religious reform in the Church of "Eternal Flame" may really be realized in the hands of Philip II.

And this military priest stationed on the "Steel Dragon" is obviously a member of the "Fire Sect" who is close to the royal family.

"It's too early to say congratulations, Griffith's entanglement by the Phalatis just gave us a chance to send things back to the mainland secretly and safely to truly complete the task.

Based on the monitoring of Tulip's third-order power, I am confident that there will be no accidents, but I am still clear about the limitations of the knights. This mission cannot do without the support of Dean Clapson. "

On the surface, he looks like a brash man with only muscles, but he can be sent by the royal party to supervise the battle against Griffiths, and is responsible for carrying out confidential tasks. This steel knight, who even has a tough nickname, obviously has an unknown talent.

"It's natural. Of course, I know the significance of the 'Sea King' to the kingdom. Just rest assured, the general."

This patriarch who is also a Silius, who has a scale in his heart in faith and country, nodded solemnly.

Even because of his faction, as one of the few insiders who know the target of the secret operation, he has a far better understanding of the cause, trend, opening timing, and target selection of this war than others.

Choose this time to target the Tulip Colony in the Southern Continent. In addition to venting domestic conflicts and the boss suppressing the second child every day, the most important reason is for "sea kingship"!

Both literal and representative of something real.

At this time, the "Treasure Tree" raw materials obtained in "Treasure Tree Bay" are enough to start the great plan, and it doesn't matter whether the 50% share is needed in a short time.

After each delivery over the years, the most essential part of it will be hidden by the royal party on the spot, and the rest will be transported back to the country with great fanfare. As the most powerful country, it is of course self-evident who is behind this move.

Prior to this, Cyrus did receive a large investment from the Church of "Eternal Flame", but including the "Legendary Warship" that was "blessed" by the gods, part of the property rights must belong to the Church.

And from the beginning of the former Cyrus King, he has been seeking to change this situation of being controlled by others.

To this day, after years of secret accumulation, it is time to realize the ambition of the royal family.

That is the theoretically most powerful battleship in human history, and it is also a legendary battleship-"Sea Majesty".

In the design, the displacement is 5826 tons, four artillery decks, 170 various shipboard artillery pieces, and it is completely built with witchcraft, abandoning the gift of divine power.

You must know that the current mainstream first-class ships have no more than 110 naval guns at most. If this "Sea King" can really be turned into reality from the blueprint, it will become a real sea supremacy. No warship is qualified to do it. opponent!

Of course, whether it is the ambition to completely obtain the "Sea Kingship", or the legendary battleship "Sea Kingship", the Tulip Alliance that believes in "Kingdom and the Goddess of the Sea" cannot be avoided.

And their mission now is to go to the secret hiding place and bring back the "Sea Kingship", which is still a pile of raw materials, safely.

After leaving the base camp of Luanda, the treasure fleet first headed west all the way, and immediately turned south after reaching the far sea border with harsh astronomical conditions.

Apparently the hiding place is very secret and far away from Cyrus' colony.

Because the "treasure tree" is not only of great significance but also related to high-level struggles, it is of course impossible to allow the complex colonial personnel in front of their homes to have the opportunity to guard themselves.

But the Treasure Fleet didn't know.

Under the surveillance of the Seagull Mind Network, there is always a fourth-class ship belonging to Phalitis acting as the navigator before the half-day voyage in front of them, um, the navigator holding the soul-calling banner.

Until the five warships in the light and shade completely came to the far sea area far away from the mainland, at this time the closest living person to them was at least two hundred nautical miles away.

After ensuring that they were completely isolated and helpless, Aiwen ordered the "Maywind" to turn its bow and intercept the four large ships.

at the same time.

call out! call out! call out!

Aiwen, who didn't know the purpose of their trip at all, made the safest choice of course.

Seagulls armed with powerful voodoo potions, cluster bombs with crock pots, and laughing spores have brazenly launched air strikes.

He was going to take the lead in clearing out the miscellaneous soldiers in the fleet, and by the way consume the power of the Transcendents.

Just like when Sirius entered the island base before the attack, he was ready to play another BVR strike.

However, this time, we didn't use the special elf for setting fire. The actual combat results proved that this kind of weapon is not very effective against the priest of "Eternal Flame".

really.

The keen spiritual sense of the legal profession has allowed it to make a targeted response when the crisis comes.

clang clang clang.

"Enemy attack—!"

"The red flame is bright and shining, protecting us from suffering!"

It seems that warm prayers echoed over the fleet.

[Divine Art·Holy Asylum! 】

A huge barrier glowing slightly red quickly expanded around the "Steel Dragon", as if a giant umbrella blocked it and the first transport ship.

bang——

Aiwen, who has already dealt with the regular army of Cyrus in the New World, of course knows the methods of the priests, and knows how to summarize and improve.

Precise allocation was carried out when the bombs were released. In the first round, only two alchemy bombs fell, and the power of their explosions had already blown up the barrier.

Then all kinds of deadly things fell on the four ships without hindrance like raindrops, and immediately a group of people turned their backs.

"Hahahahahaha."

"ah!"

Some crew members were melted into a pool of blood while laughing wildly, and some were torn apart by the explosion of the cluster bomb. Except that the "Steel Dragon" was guarded by a second-level priest and a third-level great knight.

The other three transport ships were obviously incapable of responding to this air attack, and suffered heavy losses immediately.

What's more terrible is that this is not a round of air strikes, but several rounds!

Hundreds of seagulls are bombing in turn, this time with Kaka's [Shadow Vault·Change], there is no need to worry about the problem of insufficient "ammunition", although these "ammunition" represent hundreds of golden golden lions .

Of course, if he could directly kill a great knight with money, Aiwen would of course be extremely happy.

In Aiwen's uninterrupted air strikes.

The dean named Clappenson found that he could not protect the entire transport fleet with his own strength, and it was very difficult to protect the "Steel Dragon".

After launching [Divine Art·Flame Arrow], they shot down a few seagulls sporadically.

When they launched another air strike, they directly dropped the ammunition from high altitude.

Even if you lose a part of your hit rate, you don't care.

The priest with an ugly face realized that he had to catch the commander behind the seagull, otherwise he would lose if he defended for a long time. No amount of magical spells could compare to the number of weird alchemy creations.

"Eternal fire! Burning!

The bonfire drives away the beast;

The flames destroy the enemy;

lights to light the way ahead;

"

[Divine Art·Lava Pupils! 】

An eyeball bigger than a human head opened on the top of the battleship's mainmast.

Blinking eyes like tumbling magma, the bright yellow pupils shoot out a divine light that sweeps towards the sea, the sky and the distant boundary between the sky and the sea.

However, although the divine arts are powerful, they are still defeated in front of the distant space scales of both sides.

When he realized that Clapenson's detection magic could not detect the other party.

As the commander, the Steel Knight was decisive enough. After the three transport ships were irretrievable, he directly ordered to abandon the transport ship and turn back. This kind of attack alone could not defeat the "Steel Dragon" stationed by itself in a short time!

Although his face was cold and hard, the small defeat and the wailing of the crew could not shake the firm will of a great knight.

Since the attacker ambushed him on his way to the target location, it meant that he didn't know the purpose of his trip, otherwise no one would be indifferent to the "treasure tree" that could manufacture a whole large legendary battleship.

Then the attack will only be after his return.

And the identity of the attacker is not difficult to guess. A wizard who belongs to Tulip's hidden head and tail, and the means of manipulating seabirds can be done by Phalatis' "School of Alchemy" or Taylor's "School of Solomon".

But as long as you dare to show your head, you can't escape your own slaying sword!

At this time, although three transport ships and a large number of trustworthy soldiers were lost, the steel knight felt a little lucky at this time.

There is no failure in the task, as long as you are prepared, you will have a chance next time.

However, under the dual protection of the priest and the great knight, when the "Steel Dragon" went back for most of the day against the occasional air attack from the seagulls, the crew was almost unbearable and exhausted.

But he found that a fourth-tier ship with the flag of Phalatis was already lying in front of him like a city wall, waiting for work.

A tall figure hidden in the mist floated in mid-air and shouted violently:

"Steel Knight Kungang Taita came out to die!"
