LOL: Summoner of Goddess Janna
Chapter 496 Curve to save the world?
Bilgewater, off the coast.
In this salvation war that spreads all over the world, Shurima is defended by celestial warriors such as Azir and Nasus, and Ionia is also protected by countless strong masters led by Karma and Irelia. ;
Noxus and Demacia are both traditional military powers, with highly organized military forces, tens of thousands of extraordinary warriors, and key trump cards such as Galio and the Hidden Demon, the Fire Demon, and the Shadow Demon;
Although Zaun and Piltover are lacking in extraordinary strength, as the world's largest military production base, the Twin Cities' massive reserves of weapons and ammunition and terrifying firepower capabilities are more than enough to make up for the twin cities' people's combat power. missing.
Only Bilgewater can't match the Twin Cities in terms of firepower, and can't match those extraordinary nations in terms of combat power. Except for Naga Kapoulos who will theoretically take action at the last moment, there are only some conventional technological weapons left.
Looking at it this way, Bilgewater is the area with the greatest defensive pressure and is the weakest link among the many defensive lines of the Leader.
For this reason, Li Wei specially asked Tam to be on standby at any time, just to draw experts from other battlefields with relatively good conditions at critical moments and be ready to rush to Piraeus at any time.
However, the fact is...
Compared with other places, the battlefield situation in Bilgewater is actually the most controllable.
"Commander Sarah, thanks to your wise decision this time." Elo Yin said in a sincere tone.
This may sound like flattery to the leader, but it is an indisputable fact.
Because it was Sarah who accurately judged that Gangplank could not launch an attack from inside Bilgewater, and that the attack would definitely come from the sea, she made the correct decision to intercept the enemy outside the sea.
That's why the leader navy and Planck and others met on a narrow road at sea.
This gives Bilgewater an advantage that no other battlefield has.
That is, at the moment when the enemy launched the attack and the plane passage was opened, the leader's army had already assembled and arrived at the scene in advance.
When leaders from other areas arrive at the scene of an attack, the number of undead pouring out from the underworld is often overwhelming.
So they could only rely on head-on battles to suppress the enemy's offensive, and use their lives to block the increasingly turbulent wave of undead.
And in Bilgewater...
Not long after the gate to the underworld was opened, the undead had not even had time to pour out of the plane passage. The tens of thousands of artillery loaded on the thousands of ships had already aimed at the dense forest of muzzles. The enemy's "spawn point".
And on this dim sea surface as the sun sets, that wide door that shines with pale fluorescence in the darkness and is extremely eye-catching is simply the best artillery target.
The spawn point of the monster is fixed, and there is still such a good target standing there.
Even without the help of divine power and the help of the "Blue Bird Ballistic Precision Correction System", the Bilgewater Leader's shells can still hit the target area easily.
So, the process of this battle became like this:
The undead poured out of the plane passage, and the leader of the wind fired.
Under this high-density artillery fire coverage and saturation fire strike, the undead could only die quickly in the flames.
Then the undead poured out of the plane passage, and the Wind Leader opened fire;
The undead poured out of the plane passage, and the leader of the wind opened fire;
...
Mordekaiser's undead army seems to have become an experience baby blocked by the leader of Piraeus at the door of his house.
As soon as the enemy emerges, the leader will reap the harvest.
The undead had no time to spread out their formation and form a wave in the mortal world, before they were blown up into brilliant fireworks by the dense iron rain that fell head-on and the thousands of cannonballs.
However, there are a few undead elites like Gangplank who can withstand the intensive artillery fire that destroys the world and rushes to the front of the Wind Leader's fleet.
But these few fish that slip through the net cannot shake the leader who has the strength in numbers at all.
On the Wind Leader's side, there are Elo Yin and other Baru priests to help, as well as Lucian and Senna, two sentinels of light who have the ability to restrain the undead.
Among them, Miss Saina's performance is particularly outstanding.
She has the unique ability to absorb the black mist of souls. She can turn the soul fragments of fallen enemies into black mist and absorb them to strengthen herself.
As for the undead who died under the cover of artillery fire, there were already tens of thousands of them.
Senna only took two laps on the boat, and her experience gradually increased, and she suddenly became the most powerful transcendent in the world, even Elo Yin, who had the blessing of the snake mother, could not catch up.
Gangplank and the others didn't even have time to rush forward before they were shot by her from a distance of more than a thousand meters.
The miscellaneous soldiers could not withstand the bombardment, and the number of elites who could withstand the bombardment was insufficient, so they could not break through the leader's defense line.
Mordekaiser's spiritual sea tactics completely failed here.
Looking from a distance, the sea of the dead that can be seen in other areas is not visible at all, and the will-o'-the-wisp fluorescence that blocks the sky and the sun is not visible at all.
Here there is only the smoke of gunpowder, the steaming water mist, the sound of artillery as dense as drums, and the brilliant sparks that keep blooming.
That's why Eloyin sighed: "Sarah, it's thanks to you this time."
"Now is not the time to celebrate, Elo Yin." Sarah, however, was not so optimistic.
She looked at the fire that was blooming like fireworks and the sea that was churning like boiling water, but her eyes were filled with solemnity.
Because there was a question that always lingered in her mind: "How many undead are there behind that gate to the underworld?"
This could be a nearly infinite number.
But the remaining ammunition reserves of the leader fleet must be a limited number.
"We have 337 civilian ships that have run out of ammunition and have to withdraw from the battle."
Although this fleet is huge, in fact, among the thousands of ships of various types present, 90% are civilian ships that came spontaneously to support.
Although these civilian sailors are also leaders and have a strong will to fight.
But after all, they were civilians, not professional soldiers, and they were temporarily incorporated into the fleet in a hurry without even establishing a basic command system.
There is no way Sarah can micromanage and command so many fragmented civilian ships. Everyone is doing their own thing, and firing is all based on feeling.
She wanted to command the fleet to fire alternately in batches to save ammunition as much as possible. But this is simply not possible.
In addition, these armed civilian ships are not warships specialized in naval warfare, and there are not many artillery and ammunition on board.
As the fighting continued, many civilian ships quickly ran out of ammunition and had to retreat to the sidelines to watch.
"If this continues, there will be fewer and fewer ships capable of participating in combat, and ammunition will become increasingly insufficient."
"And if we haven't won the victory by the time the ammunition is gradually exhausted and the firepower is gradually insufficient, then..."
Sarah sighed worriedly: "Then we are doomed!"
As she said that, she looked at Eruoyin anxiously.
"This..." Oluoyin probably understood.
She knew Sarah wasn't one to complain, even if the situation was really that desperate. When Sarah said these words to her, she actually wanted to say:
"Eloyin, can you ask Naga Kapoulos again to see if she can help?"
The situation was indeed not good, so Sarah simply asked straight to the point.
"I... try." Eruoyin closed his eyes and chanted the ancient Bāru sacrificial incantation while praying to the gods devoutly in his heart.
Finally, she opened her eyes again.
"What did the snake mother say?" Sarah asked impatiently.
"Naga Kapoulos is very satisfied with your performance." Eloyin said: "She has seen your battles around the world."
"This is the greatest 'sport' of all time that she has never appreciated."
"You guys did a great job."
"So?" Sarah's eyes were full of expectation.
"So..." Erluoyin replied helplessly: "Just keep doing it."
"Snake Mother believes in you."
Sarah: "..."
"Sarah." Elloyin sighed: "I said that Naga Kapoulos is not a benevolent patron saint."
"You can't rely on her."
Sarah was silent and turned to look at the continuous artillery fire.
Of course she knew that Naga Kapoulos was not a savior who responded to requests.
But now, seeing that the ammunition is gradually running out, and there is still no result from the goddess Janna, if she doesn't pray to Naga Kapoulos, what can she rely on?
The spiritual atomic bomb is not a real atomic bomb after all.
No matter how firm the leader's faith is and how strong his willpower is, he cannot sail an empty ship without ammunition to block the endless wave of undead in this vast sea.
And once it cannot be stopped at sea and the army of the undead is allowed to land and enter Piraeus, it is unknown how many lives will perish and how many families will be ruined.
The hometown she finally liberated was about to fall into hell again in the blink of an eye.
"No..." Sarah secretly clenched her fists: "I will never allow it!"
She called the adjutant and conveyed the order: "Send the order——"
"Use radio to notify all civilian ships participating in the war not to stay on the battlefield after running out of ammunition. Let them return to Bilgewater as soon as possible and join the citizens behind to participate in building coastal defenses!"
"At the same time, all naval vessels are notified to select sailors with superior physical fitness and good at close combat to return to Hong Kong in lifeboats to assist in defense before ammunition is exhausted."
"The rest of you stay and hold on to the end!"
"Yes!" The adjutant hurriedly conveyed the order.
But Eruoyin had already noticed her determination from her soft and firm face: "Sarah, you..."
"Do you want to choose the navy warship to stay as a suicide squad, to cut off everyone's back at the last moment, help more people withdraw to Piraeus Port, and continue to fight the enemy on the coast?"
"Yes." Sarah explained in detail: "Once the ammunition is exhausted, we will no longer be able to stop the enemy on this vast sea with these empty ships that have lost their claws."
"Retreat to the coast and rely on the terrain to fight a land defensive battle with the enemy. Maybe there is still a slight chance of victory."
"And retreat... always requires someone to break up the retreat."
The person responsible for breaking up the rear can only be the leading soldier.
"You..." Erluoyin's tone was moved.
She could tell from Sarah's determined gaze: the "person who was cut off" in Sarah's words also included herself.
"But you are the commander of the fleet." Oluoyin couldn't help but persuade: "You can't die."
"If you die, who will take command?"
"Raven will complete this task for me." Sarah sighed: "He is now the mayor of Bilgewater. He has been in charge of the defense of the coast and the city from the beginning."
"And I am the commander of the Windleader's naval fleet."
"Now..." As she spoke, she gently touched the warship command platform in front of her: "The naval fleet is all gone. What am I, the naval commander, doing alive?"
"Sarah." Eloyin wanted to persuade her again. After working together for more than two years, she and Sarah have become good friends.
"Stop trying to persuade me." Sarah shook her head: "I am the fleet commander and the most trusted person by the soldiers. If I don't stay, why should I let them stay here?"
"Because we are the leaders!"
At some point, everyone in the cockpit of the warship looked over with complicated eyes.
Whether they were senior generals such as captains and vice-captains, or low-level non-commissioned officers such as helmsmen, signalmen, and radar soldiers, everyone looked over without hesitation.
There was also wavering and fear in their eyes, but in the end, only determination remained.
"Commander Sarah, we are the leaders."
"We don't need anyone to stand up and set an example for us - we ourselves are the example for people, and we are willing to sacrifice for our ideals!"
Sarah: "..."
She finally realized that she had underestimated the leader.
The soldiers of the leader are all soldiers with faith.
There is no need for coercion, no need to deceive, no need for superiors to encourage people like the generals of Demacia by leading the charge by leading the charge...
All it takes is an order, all it takes is for them to know what they are fighting for, and they are willing to sacrifice.
"Okay..." After a while of silence, she finally said with emotion: "Then I will stay with you!"
"Commander Sarah!" Everyone tried to dissuade him excitedly.
"Okay, okay..." Sarah said with a carefree smile: "I, the fleet commander, will soon be of no use. Even if I survive, I won't be able to make more contributions to this war."
"You are the leader, and I am also the leader."
"You are willing to sacrifice, so why wouldn't I be willing?"
There was another moment of silence.
This time, no one spoke to stop him.
Everyone looked at Sarah's fiery eyes quietly, and formed a silent vow with their same firm gazes.
They want to stay to cut off the rear of the fleet and buy more time for the soldiers and civilians in the rear!
They will fight to the end and die!
"Wait!" At this critical moment, someone interrupted them.
Everyone had already written a suicide note in their hearts, and this sound came at an inappropriate time.
If it had been anyone else, Sarah would have definitely glared back viciously.
But now the person saying this is:
"President Levi?" She looked at the incarnation of the blue bird standing on the podium in astonishment.
"It's me." Levi's voice came clearly through the broadcast of the blue bird incarnation.
That familiar voice excited every leader present.
Levi wouldn't call him when he had nothing to do. He contacted them at this critical moment. Could it be...
"The goddess Janna has defeated Mordekaiser and won the final victory?" Sarah asked impatiently.
"No, she hasn't yet." Levi's reply was disappointing.
"That?" Sarah and the others were not in a hurry to question, but carefully looked forward to Levi's next words.
Just listen to Li Wei say: "Cease fire and retreat, everyone."
"Keep the ammunition for self-protection and let the undead come over. As long as the undead haven't hurt anyone, don't fire back."
"Huh?" Sarah was slightly startled.
"W-what did you say?"
"I said cease-fire, cease-fire and retreat now." Levi issued an incredible order: "Stop blocking the exits and bombing indiscriminately, and let the undead return to the mortal world."
There was a brief, subtle silence.
Everyone present stared at each other, and then...
"Bastard!" Sarah yelled: "Levi, you shameless traitor!"
"You actually want me to give up resistance and let those Japs in without firing a shot?"
"Tell me! Bastard, have you surrendered to Mordekaiser and become a traitor to the underworld?"
The founders of the Leader Association actually surrendered and became the leading party?
Everyone couldn't believe it and couldn't bear this heavy blow.
But Li Vina's outrageous order calling on everyone to kneel down and give up resistance and welcome the King of the Underworld forced everyone to doubt him.
"Stop..." Levi reminded helplessly: "What are you thinking about?"
"Think about it carefully - if I surrender and become the leader, how can I use the blue bird incarnation to contact you?"
"Uh..." Sarah finally reacted belatedly.
Indeed, the incarnation of the blue bird is more effective than the thread of faith, and is the best proof of the identity of the leader.
If Levi had surrendered to Mordekaiser and taken the "curve salvation" route, then he would have changed from a leader to a shameless enemy of mankind - and it would be impossible for the goddess Janna to convey this order for him.
Therefore, Li Wei's move of "drawing the invaders into the pass" must have a deeper meaning.
"President Levi, why?" Sarah still asked worriedly: "Why do you want us to cease fire and retreat?"
Enemies are like endless flames.
If they let go and let it burn, and the flames turn into a prairie fire, they will no longer be able to suppress it.
So, why did Levi want them to commit suicide?
"Because among the tens of millions of undead, there are still our comrades." Li Wei brought everyone incredible news: "At this moment, they have arrived at the entrance to the mortal world -"
"They will return to the world soon to contribute their last strength to Mordekaiser's demise!"
