The long fairy road is wonderful

Chapter 1289 Ambush (4)

In the era of wooden sail warships, limited by the performance of the artillery, it was impossible to create a rotating turret like a large steel battleship. Because the damage capability of the artillery was far from enough, it was only possible to arrange a large number of small artillery on the side, and at the same time, it was better to raise the hull. Accommodates more artillery.

It is also limited by the performance of the artillery. If it is a little farther away, it will be inaccurate. The hit depends entirely on character, so there is no scene of firing at each other several kilometers or even tens of kilometers. The distance of the battle is about tens of meters, and if it is any closer, it will almost stick together.

Because of this, the opponent's artillery can't change the shooting angle at all. When the route was robbed because of Miranda's operation of crowding the lane, in order not to bump into the island, he had to choose to go through another waterway and could not continue to pursue. .

As for chasing from the right...

Yes, it is possible, but Valeria's super-large battleship is right behind Miranda's flagship, and it has kept firing non-stop, and it didn't even have time to rescue the two ships that were killed before.

If the opponent inserts from the other side, Valeria's flagship will also follow the trend. In this case, let alone whether it can catch up to Miranda, it is likely to be killed by Valeria in the continuous shelling battle.

That's why the opponent didn't choose to continue the pursuit, but took another waterway.

But this does not mean that they can sit back and relax. The other party will retreat temporarily only because of the terrain. When they bypass the island, they will definitely come back.

Of course, Miranda knew it well. She watched the opponent's warship drive further and further away, and immediately ordered:

"Bypassing the island, we will return to join our truncated companions, leaving the two stranded ships alone."

Not counting the 21 submarine warships that the sea elves suddenly joined, there are more than 60 miscellaneous troops sent by various countries to "join in the fun", and many of them are capable warships like Valeria's flagship. It will not be easily cleaned up, and the rendezvous with the truncated fleet can guarantee to repel the opponent with the greatest combat power.

After all, in terms of being able to fight, Miranda's flagship is the one that gets beaten.

Speaking of sea elves, Mindatis took out a scallop-like magic item and kept talking to it, feeling that it should be a short-distance magic communication item.

Long-distance and even cross-plane communication are very difficult problems to solve with the current magic technology. Unless it is used by a super-high-level boss like Sai Li, it is almost impossible for ordinary people to contact distant friends as easily as making a phone call. impossible.

However, it is not too difficult to achieve short-distance magical communication within a kilometer. There is a kind of 'communication' in magic, which is only F-level, basically an apprentice-level spell similar to juggling.

It can achieve magic communication within 500 meters, and the communication range will increase as the user level increases. The 'walkie-talkie' made on this basis can be said to be easy for the sea elves who are good at alchemy , no trouble at all.

Therefore, Mindatis can use it to give orders to the 21 submarine warships it brought, far faster than Miranda can only rely on semaphore to communicate.

When the fleet turned and sailed back towards the truncated companions, Mindatis said to Lin Tianci:
"My people have already occupied the attack position and can shoot at any time."

The advantage of a submersible warship lies in its concealment and the suddenness of launching an attack from underwater. Normally, given the topography of the nearby sea area, it is the most unsuitable place for submarines to play.

Because there are too many hidden reefs, the waterways are too narrow, and there are too few places where you can move and dive.

But Sea Elf's submersible warship is a magical ship, and it doesn't need a rudder to control it. It is connected to the operator's consciousness, and it is as flexible and fast as manipulating one's own body to swim in the sea.

So for Sea Elf's submersible battleship, the terrain is really not a problem, the only trouble is that the time to occupy the attack position will be slower.

Miranda nodded towards Lin Tianci, who said to Mindatis:
"That's work."

"My pleasure."

Mindatis knocked on his chest, which seemed to be a kind of etiquette of the local sea elves, and then gave an attack command to the shell in his hand.

Almost at the same time, Lin Tianci heard a piercing scream from a distance. Due to the distance, the decibels of the sound were relatively low, but the sound was like the sharp roar of a jet flying by at low altitude.

What method did the Sea Elf's submersible ship use to launch the attack?
Fortunately, there is no need to ask Sai Li, and there is no need to guess wildly, Lin Tianci will see it soon.

Since the fleet is equivalent to turning around the island and then driving back, if you continue to walk a short distance, you can see the companions who were divided before and the enemy warships that are beating them up.

But the difference is that this time you can still see the light blue sea water suddenly bulge up, as if something below is moving at high speed and the sea water is lifted up.

Immediately afterwards, a translucent thing in the raised sea water broke through the water flow, and the moment it left the water surface, it immediately burst out the noise like the scream of a jet that Lin Tianci heard just now.

As far as visual inspection is concerned, it looks like a spell with the attribute of position.

This type of spell is not uncommon in magic, it should be said that it is very common.

For example, Lin Tianci's commonly used air shield, as well as the magic missiles that all mages know, are all applications of position attribute spells.

But the stance spell doesn't emit such piercing screams. Although it is magic, the attack method is closer to physics, mainly by smashing.

The stand spell that flew out from under the water looked like a torpedo-shaped cylinder, wrapped in a layer of faint magical aura, gliding towards the target like a flying fish jumping out of the sea.

Amidst the screams, there was a rough blunt sound, and the torpedo-shaped stance spell hit the 'butt' of an enemy warship.

The damage caused was very weak, as if an iron rod hit it, and the target's wood didn't deform in any way, and it felt far less powerful than a cannon.

However, just when the idea that the power was not good enough popped into Lin Tianci's mind, the torpedo-shaped stand suddenly trembled and exploded, and if there was a substantial shock wave sweeping the local battleship.

Circles of ripples visible to the naked eye swayed in the air, and the hit area also trembled non-stop, and finally a big hole burst open, and the ups and downs of sea water kept rushing into the hole. The power of this ship is probably explained.

Mindatis on the side explained:
"In addition to launching positional spells, our ships can also use sonic attacks to cause damage to the ship's structure. Humans' current shipbuilding technology cannot resist this kind of attack."

"Then why don't you just launch a sonic attack?"

Mindatis spread his hands:

"We still can't make sound waves directional."

The current major elf groups have almost completely lost the powerful magic technology of the ancient elves. This trick of the sea elves is already a very incredible method now.

Sonic spells are the most difficult to defend against, but if you want to control it...

First of all, the range of spells is basically around 30 meters, which is the same whether it is magic or the fairy magic of Eastern China, unless it is a particularly powerful or special type.

Secondly, if you want to create a magic item that can emit sound waves, you must make a strange object like a sonic scepter, and the activation of this strange object must also be controlled by humans.

The submarine warship is still a dead thing after all, and it must rely on a huge and complex magic circle to activate the magic effect, and extract energy from the magic crystal.

The more powerful the spell, the higher the energy density extracted, which also puts quite strict requirements on the carrying capacity of the magic circle.

In other words, if the current is too strong, the wire can't stand it.

If you want to increase the range, you must inevitably increase the power, but the magic circle can't stand it, and this has entered an endless loop.

The sea elves chose a more tricky method. They wrapped the sonic spell in a positional spell and then launched it.

In this way, the shooting range will be nearly doubled, and the power will be preserved as much as possible. The disadvantage is that the complexity and difficulty of the magic circle are even better than before.

After all, there was a sonic spell effect before, but this time it is double matching, of course the difficulty is different.

However, this does not affect its power.

The sea elf's submersible battleship was hiding under the water, and the fleets of both sides who were busy fighting fiercely on the water could not have the energy to pay attention to the situation below, and it was impossible to send people to lie on the side of the ship to look down.

So they didn't know where the attack was coming from. After all, the sea elves had never interfered with the races on land before. If you don't mess with me, I won't hit you.

Even the most vicious pirates would not have experience in fighting sea elves. In this plane where 90% is water, that would make the old birthday star drink arsenic and hate his life for a long time.

The fleet brought by Mindatis is definitely a strong support. If in the vast sea, it is no problem to wipe out the number of warships more than ten times that of his own with these 21 submarine warships, it is no wonder that Miranda thinks it is A pleasant surprise.

But also due to the terrain, the submarine warship needs to rely on water to function, and cannot fly.

The waterway at the scene is too narrow, and the islands are densely covered with many hidden reefs. Even a flexible submersible warship cannot find a suitable attack position anytime and anywhere.

At this time, Miranda's flagship had really entered the visual distance of the battle situation, and she asked the helmsman to turn the direction, planning to launch a counterattack from the side and rear of the enemy fleet.

Because at this time, Valeria's fleet followed closely behind. The enemy fleet that chased their guns did not chase after them. Like the ship that abandoned Miranda before, they all sailed to the other side. go.

Of course, with the firepower of that super-large battleship, the opponent would definitely not be able to please him. Lin Tianci could see several enemy warships crooked from a long distance away, and he could barely drive them.

When the influence of strategy and tactics is small and only head-to-head conflicts are possible, more is beautiful, bigger is better, caliber is justice, and range is truth.

In terms of resistance to beating and super firepower output, Valeria's flagship is really not afraid of anyone.
