Chapter 858 There is no airship in the sky that can beat the empire!
In the Alpha area, in the air base next to the Beta area in the north, large and small aircraft and magic vehicles gathered from all sides, bringing all kinds of supplies and people of all kinds.A sardine fighter plane flew into the sky, formed and flew north.

"It's too crowded below to calibrate the machine guns, so you just reset it to zero. And can you receive the live broadcast here? I just came from the Second Air Force and I don't know how the fight is going."

Another sardine was dragged out of the underground hangar, and the pilot yelled at the ground crew.

The stocky man who should have dwarf blood pointed to the side, and the driver yelled.

Next to the huge maintenance site stands a huge screen of 30 meters high and wide, so big!
The driver didn't scream because of this, but the screen happened to be the image of the red dragon being beaten by the fishbone missile.

The pilot's field of vision contains many technical parameters, and it is impossible to directly broadcast it to the outside world. This was taken by a camera attached to a male shark, and it is very unclear.But you can see the desperate scene of the red dragon flapping its wings and struggling to get rid of the missile, and you can also hear the roar of the dragon amidst the explosion.In the past, the dragon's roar was a deterrent to the strong, but now it has become the cry of the weak.

The halfling in the back seat tried to stretch his head to see clearly, but the driver thoughtfully opened the hatch so that he could see clearly while leaning on the side of the cockpit.

The halfling said gratefully: "Thank you, Deckard."

Dyke smiled and said, "You're welcome, partner."

Like many other crews, their crew was drawn from the Second Air Force and came here to receive sardine modifications.Received the plane and regrouped, ready to fly to the Weeping Sand Sea, and join the battlefield when the battle situation is unfavorable.

Not only active crews like them came here, but also many retired or civilian pilots.The Red Federation now has enough sardine-adapted fighters, but not enough crews, so they have to recruit all those who have obtained flight certificates.

Deke and his partner were watching with great interest, when someone shouted, "Deke? Is that you Deke?"

Turning around and seeing two people, Deckard was overjoyed: "Hassan? Genil!?"

When he was at the Cactus Base, he and these two served in the Fourth Squadron, commonly known as the Circus, and they were also part of the same crew.

He immediately beamed with joy, and slapped the skin under the cockpit: "What did you say before? If I can become a pilot, you will give me beer for a whole month! You will retire before I get the certificate." , I can't hide now!"

The members of the circus were restless, and many retired after defeating Mirhos.But they did not leave the sky, some continued to work as pilots, and some joined the Pilots Guild to design and manufacture aircraft.Later, when the Flying Home Commune was established, many core members had the qualifications to serve in the circus.

Now that the new Red Federation is recruiting crews, these retired personnel are all here.

Hassan laughed and said, "Who knew you would stay in the circus..."

Jeniel spread his hands and said, "I admit it, but what matters now is not this matter."

Dyke looked at a gray elf following them, rubbed his nose and said, "It seems that I said that if you can fly the plane, I will lose beer. It seems that we have all the beer for this month."

The three laughed and introduced their partners to each other.

Dyke asked curiously: "Aren't you guys working on hoverbikes? What are you doing to join in the fun?"

These two people came from the Shadow City of the Storm Islands. They were at odds at first, but they have gone all the way from the Legion to the Air Force, and now they are life and death friends.

After retiring, they opened a floating motorcycle workshop. The handcrafted floating motorcycles are quite famous, and they also organized a floating motorcycle competition with many colleagues.Although it is not as lively as dragon races, airplane and speed races, it has also been included in the official sports events by the Red Federation and supported at the national level.

Jenier said: "We are circus people. When we beat Mierhos in the sky, there was no Second Air Force, let alone the Red Federation."

Hassan put it more directly: "We old seniors don't trust you guys who are active."

Deck grinned: "You two guys, your mouths are still so vicious."

At this time, there were exclamations, and the three turned their heads, and saw that the image on the screen switched to the fourth brigade.

Above the sea of ​​clouds, one after another clearly visible floating ships are soaring into the sky, and the barriers surrounding each battleship reflect the blazing sunlight, as if they were real.

"It's different from the previous protective barrier..."

"Much smaller, the sardines can't get in."

"Don't call me a crow's mouth, I feel that we will be useful."

The three of them muttered, with a look of worry floating on their faces.

Old Exter Kingdom, in the traveler's wilderness south of Red Eagle City, the mobile fortress of Fleitenhaus lying on the ground is surrounded by scaffolding, and several mechanical arms, puppets and workers are busy.

On the hill not far away, the old captain Hu Keelon crossed his arms and watched the live broadcast on the screen with the remaining personnel of the mobile fortress.

"This enchantment is definitely a magic shield that can prevent live bullets!"

"Look at those free block light shields, they are very similar to our lilac razor!"

"If it's a sardine, it will be troublesome to deal with this kind of enchantment."

"Whether the fishbone can be pierced is very problematic."

The remaining staff officers were all technical backgrounds, and they immediately saw the unusual features of the imperial warships in the illusion.

Hook frowned tightly, and snorted dissatisfiedly: "If I let my Forty fly to the sky earlier, what is this little bug in front of Forty's cannon?"

On the plane of hell, sighs of regret echoed in the hall of Guijuebao Thunder Research Institute.

In the battle video, which was delayed for more than ten minutes, the first wave of fishbone missiles accurately hit the Imperial floating ship.

After the lavender flame dissipated, none of the floating ships stopped, and they were still climbing with their heads held high.In the enlarged image given, you can see the light shield cruising on the barrier, without even a single crystallized area.

It's not completely without damage. It can be seen that there are some small holes and dense sieve-like areas on the battleship's shell, but because only the bullet core penetrates the barrier and does not carry more magical energy, the damage caused is very slight.

"As I said earlier, it's not fast enough and not strong enough!"

Nickner bit his nails, his heart churning with annoyance.

If he could figure out the lightning launch technology earlier and use the electromagnetic cannon to fire shells with extraordinary power, even if the enchantment can completely offset the extraordinary power, the kinetic energy carried by the shells would still be enough to cause major damage to the battleship.

It was easy for male sharks to use fishbone to deal with flying boats and giant dragons before, but it is not good to deal with such big guys. The technology update speed of the empire is also very fast.

………………

More than ten minutes ago, in the sky over the Weeping Sand Sea, the Empire's main fleet formed an upper and lower three-tier air defense formation and climbed with its head held high.

Groups of purple flames exploded on the outer battleships, and the enemy was still in a place that could only be seen with the best of sight, making Chaboni and Simberna's expressions extremely gloomy.

The reports sent back by the ships made them breathe a sigh of relief, and Simbner shook his head: "But that's it..."

Tennyson laughed and said: "As I said, our warships have undergone revolutionary improvements, and they are completely different from the Remaco fleet that the Red Federation faced before!"

"The new mode of the enchantment is like this," Simberna said approvingly: "It can protect against live ammunition, and it can also cooperate with the swimming magic light shield. The magic rapid-fire cannon may not even be able to penetrate the barrier."

Tennyson nodded again and again: "The enchantment that protects live ammunition has long been in place. I asked the research department of the Ministry of Magic to solve the problem of switching between different modes. If this enchantment is activated, even the wind will be blocked, so it must be raised to the highest level." The height of thin air."

"As for the additional magical light shield, it was developed by a priest family specializing in spiritual guidance technology, and I selected it. They got inspiration from the mobile fortress of the Red Federation, but the light shield has a larger area and is easier to use. Operation, the requirements for the shield hand are not so high."

Chaboni's tone on the command seat was not so joyful: "But we can't beat them. Is it just like this? And it's already 5000 meters. If we continue to climb, the magic oil will be consumed too much."

Simbner looked at Tennyson, who choked for a moment.

After a while, Tennyson smiled wryly and said, "Except for the main gun, there is no weapon on the battleship that can accurately hit six or seven kilometers away. It's so far."

"The main gun can't hit such a fast plane at all," Simbner was a little anxious.

Chaboni was right, if you keep getting beaten, there will always be problems.The terrible thing is that if the protective barrier is switched to the current mode, it cannot fly too low and consume too much magic oil.

"If your goal is to rush into the God's Fall Plateau, there is actually no need to pay attention to such an attack." Tennyson offered his best advice: "The locking spell is easy to break, just cast smoke. Even if they have the kind of magic that can be detected from a long distance Guidance equipment, and a spider eye mirror that can penetrate smoke and darkness, but you can’t see the details clearly, so you can only fight like before, and it won’t hurt us much.”

Simbner shook his head: "It doesn't make sense for light to rush in. We must rule the sky, at least for a whole day, without any powerful interference, in order to achieve our goals."

He looked at Chaboni, waiting for the latter to make a decision, the real commander scratched his head and muttered: "Wait a minute, let me think about it..."

At this time, the captain who was directing the steering shouted: "I saw them! So fast! So high! No, they are flying higher than us! They are almost over our heads!"

Tennyson quickly shrank back, which was naturally unexpected.

Simbner looked at Chaboni again. The latter looked bewildered. He gritted his teeth and ordered directly: "Release the smoke! Maintain the current altitude and fully fire the anti-aircraft fire! At least it can intercept and lock the weapon!"

Obliquely above the Empire Floating Fleet, at an altitude of 8000 meters, the channel of the Fourth Battalion was completely silent.

The first wave of fishbone missile attacks did not succeed, which brought great pressure to everyone. The intelligence department did not mention that the protective barrier of the opponent's warship has been changed to this shape, and there is even a swimming shield similar to the mobile fortress lilac razor. .

"What's wrong with everyone?"

Captain Lalci spoke with a relaxed tone: "It was just a test shot just now. Since the opponent's defense has been tested, it means it was successful."

"Look, they don't climb any more, they finally realize that it's impossible to get rid of us by altitude."

Then it became high-spirited: "Our male sharks have a limit altitude of 3000 meters! It is higher than the ceiling of ordinary floating ships! We can always press on their heads and deal with them with ease!"

Finally, a clear order was issued: "Precisely lock the anti-aircraft firepower, and fire two salvos at a time! Don't forget our real mission! We are not the protagonists of dealing with the airships, we are helping the narwhals to clear obstacles!"

I have to say that although Lalci is too serious and doesn't match the style of the circus, he is very qualified as a captain.

Someone on the channel yelled, "They're blowing smoke!"

A puff of gray smoke spewed out from the airship, and a large gray cloud stretched out in the sky in a moment, covering the entire fleet inside.

The message from the black whale flickered for a while, and soon marked the battleship in the cloud, but the details were hard to see.Even if you put on the spider eye lens that can penetrate smoke, because the spider eye lens cannot be superimposed with the eagle eyeglass, it makes it quite difficult to lock.

"The distance is shortened to five kilometers!"

Lalci wasn't flustered at all: "We can't see clearly, and they can't see clearly either!"

The male shark roared down, shooting out streaks of white smoke.

The airship sprayed dense ballistic trajectories. Although the live ammunition fell weakly when it flew three or four kilometers away, and the rays scattered into magical turbulence two or three kilometers away, the woven fire net was still quite blazing.

About four or five fishbone were intercepted by the fire net, and the remaining more than 30 hit the [-] floating ships on the upper level of the fleet.

All the fishbone missiles exploded directly on the protective barrier. This kind of barrier that can protect live ammunition triggered the fishbone fuze. In the warhead of the missile, the magic explosives on the front and back of the bullet core detonated one after another.

The front end of the bullet stock is like a cone-shaped cover for a shaped armor-piercing bullet, allowing the magic energy of the magic explosive to converge into a jet, even if the jet cannot be disintegrated, it can still create an obvious barrier area.

The second half of the explosive pushes the buttstock, which is also the conical cover, to push the magic steel core out, and penetrates the protective barrier along the breach or crystallized area formed by the "shield breaking jet", with the core of the prefabricated fragment , Destroy the battleship together.

This kind of warhead, which combines the principles of armor-piercing, armor-piercing and even armor-breaking bullets, is definitely not acceptable in the earth world.After all, there is a specialization in the art industry, and a comprehensive hand means everything is plagued, but it is very effective in the Finn world where extraordinary power and basic power protection must be considered at the same time.

The fishbone missile did not directly explode on the hull of the battleship. The energy of the "magic jet" was used to break the protective barrier, so the killing effect was naturally not obvious.Moreover, many fishbone were blocked by the divine light shield that opened in time, absorbing more energy, causing the damage of the magic steel core and fragments to be weakened again.

Even so, it is enough to deal with anti-aircraft fire without armor protection.

There were wailing sounds in the narrow passage commonly known as the "air defense corridor" on the outer layer of the battleship. Those small-caliber magic rapid-fire cannons and ray cannons continued to disintegrate. The shards of magic steel covered his face, smashing his head, chest, arms, and all parts that were not protected by armor into a sieve.

For the airships of this era, except for the heavy armor on the floating furnace, flying furnace and magic furnace, the weight of other places has to be taken into account.Even for the main gun, it is only handled by adding a magic metal plate that can temporarily inject magic power or divine power. There is no room for enhanced protection in places like the hull of the battleship and the "air defense corridor". Anyway, there is a protective barrier.

As for the anti-aircraft gunners, even if it is the main fleet of His Majesty the Emperor, the designers have no time to take care of their safety.Already in the powerful protective barrier, already protected by the shell of the battleship, what else should I do?

Does everyone deserve a set of magic steel armor?You are not fighting the enemy face to face...

All the gunners stood on the gun positions with infinite loyalty to His Majesty the God Emperor. For them, the risk they took was much smaller than fighting the enemy face to face in the old days, and they had no complaints.

Besides, if you really die, can you still go to the Kingdom of God?During the Traveler's Battle in the Wilderness, His Majesty the God Emperor opened the door to the Kingdom of God, and they were looking forward to it.

With such a material foundation and such spiritual awareness, fishbone missiles destroyed the air defense corridor of the floating ship, and all the anti-aircraft guns misfired.

More than ten minutes later, each male shark of the fourth brigade fired all the fishbone missiles in the four missile slots, raised its middle finger at the floating fleet that was still hatching in the dense fog, and roared away.

Lalci's voice echoed in the channel, and his tone was quite unwilling: "Fly to the supply point at full speed! Load up the missiles and come back!"

The reloading machine nicknamed "Fin Whale" is more than 100 kilometers away, and with the reloading time, they can come back in half an hour.

Although there are not many missiles that can be replenished, they still have a chance.

"The damage to the warships of the first formation was very slight, that is, most of the anti-aircraft firepower was lost."

On the bridge of the Lloyds, the adjutant reports to Simbner.

"They can only hit those targets," Simbner said contemptuously.

Then he ordered: "The first formation and the third formation change positions. If there are still enemies, the first formation will be difficult to defend."

Even in the dense fog, the battleship's transposition is quite skillful, showing the good quality and sufficient training of the fleet.

As soon as the transposition was over, the second batch of Red Alliance fighters appeared. This was the first brigade led by Linde.

At this time, even Chaboni felt that something was wrong.

The legendary paladin muttered: "I feel that the enemy's main point is to kill our anti-aircraft firepower."

Simbner held down the crystal ball with a gloomy expression, stretching his perception as a legendary magician.

Then he stared wide-eyed: "There is a mess of magic fluctuations tens of kilometers away... cruising, as if waiting for an opportunity, it feels much bigger than the magical plane."

Tennyson shrunk back, but straightened up when he heard this, and said very firmly: "If it is an airship, there is nothing to worry about. There is no airship in the sky that can beat the Empire." !"

More than 40 kilometers away, the group of narwhals, which seemed to be equipped with wings on a submarine and whose X-shaped rudder was several times larger, turned their bows and flew towards the battlefield.

The jet engine hanging under the wings roared loudly, and four hatches were exposed at the bow of the boat. The inside was dark, and there were some monsters waiting for an opportunity.
