Embers of Embers

Chapter 541 Black Cocoon [Thanks to the leader of the Fat Buddha Immortal]
One after another, the armored ships sank amidst the fierce gunfire. Cold seawater poured into the cabins. Before the soldiers could escape, they were blocked by the turbulent seawater. They lacked oxygen and drowned, turning into bodies again and again. A floating corpse swayed with the waves of the ocean current.
The armored ships are so huge that even if they sink, they will become extremely slow, as if they are still standing on the sea, firing tenaciously, exerting their last remaining heat.
The wreckage of steel piled up together, entangled with the fireworks, turning into a burning steel forest, and the Morning Glory Advance struggled to keep moving.
Even with Inverg's highest craftsmanship and technology, the Morning Glory Advance became scarred under this intensity of combat. The armor on both sides of the ship was scarred, and some places had begun to fall off, exposing the structure underneath. , completely exposing the fixed artillery on the side.
Thick black smoke rose, the boiler burned hard, and then more smoke poured from the chimney.
This is a sudden naval battle, a big melee. There is no time for evasion and no room for fighting. Just like dueling swordsmen, both sides appear in each other's field of vision at the beginning. What is to be done next? Just use all means to kill the other party.
Under the mobilization of the epidemic doctor, this battle was extremely brutal. He never thought about surviving from the beginning, so Gaulonaluo's fleet attacked fiercely, even if they themselves suffered great trauma, they could not survive. don't flinch.
These warriors who had been implanted with secret blood only had orders in their minds. They did not care about death at all. The fleet continued to advance, shortening the distance and pouring out more artillery.
In the smoke and flames of war, they dragged tonight's situation to an even crazier stage.
On the ruined pier, Lorenzo held a black sword blade in his hand and looked at the crazy scene in front of him.
Probably no one thought that the situation tonight would be so crazy. Lorenzo guessed that the king and lords were going crazy now. They just wanted to compete for the dominance of this important place in Lingbing Bay, but suddenly something happened. A fleet came out and plowed the dock directly.
Judging from the current situation, there is not much military power in Lengbingwan, and most of it was directly destroyed, and the pier was almost destroyed. It would take a few months at the fastest to rebuild. At such a time point, this kind of thing happened, which was a serious blow to the Viking countries.
No matter how greedy the kings and lords are, they know one thing very well. They are a whole, a Viking nation. No matter how eager they are to rule Lingbing Bay, they will not take actions that harm the interests of the whole.
But now the epidemic doctor directly blew up Lingbing Bay. From the perspective of perception, Lorenzo could clearly feel the surge of erosion. He not only led the fleet to blow up Lingbing Bay, but also released a lot of demon.
Lorenzo could no longer tell whether the epidemic doctor was a scholar or a military strategist. Or maybe he really didn't understand military matters, so he chose to gather together and fight, no matter what was ahead, just bulldoze it all the way. .
Lengbing Bay fell into a sea of ​​​​fire, which directly affected the internal circulation of the entire Viking kingdom. No matter how you think about it, tonight is very suitable as the beginning of a world war.
This was what Lorenzo tried his best to prevent, but it finally broke out, and it happened so suddenly under such circumstances that no one expected.
The sound of waves sounded in the darkness in front of him. Something was coming. Lorenzo raised the Winchester and was about to fire.
During the battle with the epidemic doctor, the out-of-control power Michael ignited everything. Even if Lorenzo tried his best to control it, it also affected him. The wooden handle of Winchester was burned black, but fortunately it was not completely shattered. If you drop it, you can still use it.
Pulled the trigger and nothing happened.
Only then did Lorenzo remember that all the ammunition on his body had exploded in the previous burning. He immediately waved his black sword, cutting off the waves and something in the waves. The blood and The internal organs splashed up and were carried by the receding waves, dragging them into the deep sea.
There were constant explosions in my ears. From so far away, the explosions sounded like the roar of thunder, and it seemed that a storm was brewing on the sea surface of Lingbing Bay.
Lorenzo raised his hand and touched the crown on his head. It was briefly taken off while chasing the Plague Doctor. He activated his power, Gabriel, and tried [Gap] to invade the Plague Doctor. Although he failed in the end, But Lorenzo still gave the doctor a heavy blow to his consciousness, which should make the doctor honest for a while. No matter how strong his body is, his soul is still weak.
"Holy Silver...Herald..."
Lorenzo remembered what was inside and muttered in a low voice.
Suddenly he remembered the mysterious Herald. He deliberately let Lorenzo meet the epidemic doctor, and also used members of the Final Society to cause riots in the city. Lorenzo felt that he seemed to be trying to do something. Everything at the moment was his. Chess pieces on the chessboard.
More importantly, Lorenzo remembered the armor of the Herald.
The armor was covered with dents and scratches. It was silver-white armor that had gone through countless years. It was like holy silver.
Armor made of holy silver.
The Herald also possesses the power of Gabriel. He forged a piece of holy silver armor for himself... So what is he guarding against?
Lorenzo guessed in his heart.
Judging from the information given by Watson, all that is needed to avoid the Silent One is a simple holy silver crown. So what kind of existence needs a holy silver armor as a defense?
Lorenzo couldn't think of it, and he didn't want to think about it anymore. The closer he got to the end of the world, the more things he could recognize beyond comprehension.
And compared with these, it is more important to solve the current situation first, otherwise the Morning Glory Advance will sink, and Lorenzo will have to row a long boat to the Silent Sea.
The fire in front of him soared into the sky, and most of the ships parked on the shore were sunk in the first round of shelling. The armored ships that could withstand the first round of shelling sailed forward one after another to join the battle.
Lorenzo watched the Morning Glory Advance go away, and for a moment he realized that he had no way to catch up with the ship.
Maybe...it's not completely impossible.
His fingers gently touched the crown above his head. Its temperature was so cold, like a piece of unmeltable ice.
Lorenzo retreated slowly, hiding himself in the shadow of the wreckage, and then the dense scale armor wrapped him heavily. The armor was so thick that it barely gave the joints room to move. It was armor, rather Lorenzo was wrapped in a black cocoon, and before he was completely plunged into darkness, the silver crown on his head disappeared.
The hot sea breeze blew through the ruins, and laughter could be faintly heard, as if someone was laughing at something.
……
"Side fire!"
Along with Notar's roar, the fixed artillery on the side of the Morning Glory Advance opened fire. In the smoke, the shells crossed the Caspian Sea and fell into the end of the field of vision, sparking a burst of fire.
"Evacuate! Evacuate! We have to leave Lingbing Bay!" Haibold's voice was hoarse, and the sound of artillery fire covered all the sounds inside. He could only roar with all his strength, "If we stay here, we will only be hit." This is the way to go."
The epidemic doctor's fleet occupies the geographical advantage, and they directly block all the ships in the Lengbing Bay. The reason why the stationed armored ships attack is largely because of this. Staying in the Lingbing Bay, there is only a dead end. They had to give it a try.
"I know! I know! Who cares about those damn things on the deck! They're coming soon!"
Notal held the steering wheel hard, and he could see that the command room was in a mess, with broken glass and blood stains on it. The cabin shook violently, and a ferocious severed limb rolled past Notal's feet.
It was a scary scene, but Notal was getting used to it.
Fire streams flashed on the deck one after another, hitting the ferocious shadows. The semi-molten metal condensed on their bodies, burning the inside of their flesh and blood while penetrating them.
Thermite rifles fired continuously, suppressing the monsters that rushed onto the deck. There were not many of them, but each monster was a failed product of the epidemic doctor's experiment. They had undergone special surgery and were covered with metal weapons.
They pose a great threat. Once approached, the metal hooks can easily cut through steel. Because of their appearance, the terrace artillery came to a halt for a time. Fortunately, the disadvantage did not last long, and the soldiers were trying to recapture it. home field.
But they are not the only threats.
The shelling continued in the distance. After the armor cracked, the demon crawled out of the sea, rushed into the cabin along the damaged side wall, and started a bloody killing.
The Morning Glory Advance is now under attack from both sides, but even so, its condition is much better than other "friendly forces". Most of the armored ships that left with it have been sunk in fierce exchanges of fire, and some are still fighting, but With the appearance of demons, their sinking is also doomed.
These Vikings had no means to fight the monsters, and they probably didn't even know the monsters existed.
"Speed ​​up, we have to run faster!"
Seliu urged Notar. She also held a ignited thermite rifle and was guarding the command room. However, Seliu seemed more trapped here than guarding here.
There is no safe place now, so she feels it is not bad to stay here.
"I know I know!"
Notar pushed the lever and shouted with a broken expression.
It took some time for the Dawn Advance to accelerate. Now it was fast enough, but not fast enough to escape the enemy's pursuit.
In fact, the enemy suffered a lot of damage. Under Ascalon's bombardment, at least several armored ships were sunk in the battle, and more than half of the armored ships were seriously damaged. Generally speaking, in order to preserve their strength, the enemy should prepare to retreat. , they have already won this battle, and if they continue to fight against the Chenhui Advance, they will lose more than they gain.
But the other party didn't care about this at all. The soldiers with dull eyes followed the orders, attacked without fear of death, and dragged the Morning Glory Advance into the Jedi.
The entire sea surface was piled with burning metal debris. Notal took a deep breath. Even if his fingers were frostbitten, he didn't feel anything.
He had to rush out with everyone.
Suddenly a sharp light suddenly appeared in front of the eyes, and a demon crawled over at some point. It was very careful and was not noticed until it launched an attack.
Oops.
Notar's heart felt cold. It felt terrible. He was so heroic just now, but he was about to die the next second. No matter how much he thought about it, he felt extremely depressed.
A loud noise erupted in the air, and the demon's sharp claws failed to fall. The sharp metal penetrated its waist and abdomen, then dragged it to its body and nailed it to the deck.
Notar looked at the still twisting demon with fear, and then a dark shadow occupied his field of vision.
The weapon master stepped on the demon's body, suppressing it, then pulled out the sword blade, and then cut it off again, crushing its head and spine together.
"Go on! Notal, I'm here."
Shrike's voice sounded from under the Original Sin Armor. The Weapon Master's movements were not flexible. There were several cables hanging on its body, restricting its movements to the deck.
The Original Sin Armor can easily fall into the sea on bumpy seas, and it has almost no self-rescue ability in the sea. Once it falls into the sea, at least one of the Original Sin Armor will be lost, or at worst, the driver will sink into the deep sea with the Original Sin Armor.
"There are more and more enemies! Shrike!"
Another voice sounded from a distance, it was Lan Jade. She was driving a third-generation armor, covered with heavy external armor, fighting on the deck like a fixed artillery piece.
Every time the sword was swung and the trigger was pulled, a large amount of blood mist would be set off, but the demons seemed to be endless, climbing up one after another, and many of the fixed artillery on the sides were destroyed by them. With the enemy's Due to shelling, the armed forces of the Morning Glory Advance were being continuously reduced.
Blue Jade is guarding the bottom of Ascalon, protecting this heavy artillery. No matter what, nothing will happen to it.
A loud bang passed by, and before he could think about anything, the third-generation armor was shattered into countless pieces in an instant. Twisted external armor flew away. The body of the third-generation armor also suffered heavy damage, and half of its arms were broken in an instant. .
Fortunately, the body was restrained by cables, and the third-generation armor stopped after slipping for a certain distance, and blood overflowed from the gaps in the metal.
"Blue Jade!" Shrike shouted anxiously.
"I'm okay...at least I'm not dead yet."
A weak voice sounded, and Lan Jade felt as if her body was penetrated by metal. Just like she had thought before, the original sin armor was an armor of protection and would also become a coffin for death.
She stood up unsteadily, with most of the mechanical structure exposed. Fortunately, she still had one arm that she could use. She pulled out an armored musket and fired.
At the end of the fire was the Blood Shark, which was speeding all the way. It got close enough, and the terrace cannon accurately hit the third-generation armor.
Under the light, Lan Jade saw the muzzle of the cannon aimed at him.
It's too late, she has no time to dodge, this round of concentrated fire is fully capable of tearing herself to pieces, fortunately Ascalon will be fine, it is protected by a solid barrier, only need to worry about the infiltration of monsters and damage.
For a moment, Lan Jade's mind went blank. She found that when death really came, she could not think about anything.
Then raging fire surged on the Blood Shark, and the aimed artillery was wrapped in the fire before it could fire. The golden flames rolled crazily, turning into dazzling white at the moment it reached its extreme.
In the blazing white firelight, the black angel stretched the iron feather to its fullest.
