Magic energy artillery requires a long enough charging gap to complete the second launch, even the "Toad Cannon" modified by Colin. This charging gap is enough for the opponent to counterattack with a round of artillery.

In the lookout mirror, everyone on the "Ghost Regiment" could clearly see that after they sank one of the opponent's ships, the four main gun muzzles on the remaining four Predators were all facing them.

At this moment, a fatal crisis instantly enveloped the sky above the Iron Toad.

"Captain, the opponent is preparing to launch a counterattack! We need to prepare to enter the 'frog position' state and jump to avoid..."

"The kinetic energy reserve of the boiler is 90%, the propulsion is 150, the response is 3 seconds, and we are ready to leap forward..."

"The enemy warship's muzzle angle is 1°-3° horizontally, covering a range of 800X400 for bombardment. Our ship leaps 300 meters into the air, moves 1,200 meters laterally, and has a 97% chance of safely evading..."

"The energy reserves are sufficient, the backup mana boiler is activated, the second jump is ready, and continuous jumps can be executed at any time..."

"Charge the magic artillery a second time and prepare for the next artillery attack..."

"Execute Leap Forward!"

"..."

On the "Golden Ghost", Raymond and others were also busy performing their respective duties.

This was the first ship encounter of their ghost group. Although the battle atmosphere was a little tense, because there was a plan in advance, everyone acted according to the plan and there was not much panic.

In the original "Voyage" game, in addition to all kinds of strange and extraordinary abilities, "naval battles" were also the most prominent part of the official promotion. The fierce war atmosphere and magnificent ship and naval battle scenes also attracted countless players who like war games.

The biggest gimmick.

In the later stages of the game, when players have sufficient strength and funds, they will form a fleet and begin to conquer the major forces in the Endless Sea.

The conflict between the navy and the pirates, the conflict between the players' fleets... can all be decided by force. Conquer cities and territories, exterminate and conquer, one-on-one, many-on-many, fleets versus fleets, and even large-scale national wars.

..the fun is endless.

The gun-fired naval battle scene in the game is the most exciting part that attracts players to enjoy the fun of war and stimulate adrenaline surges.

But in reality, fleet naval battles have become very cruel and bloody.

Especially large-scale naval battles at the national war level, where thousands of guns are fired and all life in the sea is wiped out, that is a truly hellish scene to enjoy.

Life is as insignificant as an ant under those magical artillery that destroys the world.

Even for high-level transcendental beings, the chance of dying in a large-scale war is very terrifying.

The thousand-year development of the "Steam Age" has given faint signs that the power of science and technology can keep pace with extraordinary power.

The magic artillery is showing its deadly fangs to this era.

...

"Fire! Sink that damn guy for me!"

After the magic artillery was charged, the commander gave the order and fired a volley of ammunition.

At this moment, the blue light of the magic runes of the main guns on the four predator warships of the Oliver family surged. In an instant, it was like a flood opening and roaring violently.

Four thick beams of magic energy shot out from the cannon's mouth and shot through the air.

Bang, bang, bang, bang...

The beam of light shells passed dozens of sea miles in the blink of an eye, and launched a covering artillery strike towards the sea area where the "Iron Toad" was located.

Under normal circumstances, a concentrated fire strike of this level can definitely kill any predator-class warship in seconds!

But at this moment, a scene appeared that shocked everyone in the Oliver family.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, this attack that was expected to be a sure success actually failed!

"what happened?!"

"impossible..."

"Oh my god, what did I see? Is that really a steam ship?"

"It actually "flyed"?!"

"..."

No one was shocked by what they saw in front of them. Many people even rubbed their eyes and couldn't believe what they saw.

But unfortunately, the incredible picture in front of us is the "fact".

These people in Oliver's fleet watched helplessly as the rusty ship at the end of their field of vision suddenly jumped like a toad on the sea surface and jumped hundreds of meters into the sky!

The next moment,

Bang, bang, bang, bang...

The magic energy beam passed by, and violent explosions shook the sea surface.

This round of covering attacks, which blocked all evasion angles, failed to hit the ship and was shot into the sea. It was like an atomic bomb was detonated under the water. After a flash of light on the deep blue sea, hundreds of people rose up in an instant.

Meter-high whitecaps.

"Failed?"

No one would dare to believe what happened in front of them unless they saw it with their own eyes.

A ship that was supposed to be sunk turned into a huge "flying toad". A moment before the magic cannon was fired, the iron toad had already predicted one step in advance, jumped out of the sea in a graceful manner, and left a mark in the air.

A string of crystal water splashes fell...

The trajectory of magic artillery can be predicted, which will not surprise anyone in the world of navigation.

The magic energy cannon will be charged with magic power before firing, and the movement cannot be concealed. The rolling energy beam can be seen from a long distance. During the firing stage after charging, the muzzle angle has been locked. Charging

Able to reach the extreme, like an arrow on the string, you have to shoot...

This is the principle of prediction.

A skilled naval war commander will accurately predict the trajectory, power and launch time of the projectile based on the direction of the local cannon muzzle, the energy storage time, and the brightness of the runes.

In a one-on-one naval battle, this kind of prediction can largely allow one's own ships to avoid fatal attacks from enemy artillery fire...

The prediction is not surprising.

What surprised the Oliver family was that the guys on the ship used such a bizarre method to avoid this round of "certain death" artillery fire.

What's going on with this flying iron toad?

Is this... still a steam ship?

The guys in the Oliver family were shocked...

They are a big family from Hex Technology City, which is the world's top technological center. They are not "hillbillies" from remote sea areas with backward technology and have never seen high-tech products.

It stands to reason that they should be a small group of people standing at the forefront of contemporary technology, and their ships represent the world's top technological standards.

What's more, almost all the top-level technology ships in the world are produced by the major shipyards in Hex City. Therefore, no matter how exquisite the ship is or how bizarre the design is, they don't say they have seen it, but at least they have heard about it.

Said...

But now, what is going on?!

They saw a ship that... felt like it crushed their IQ!

Before, they chased the extremely fast "eight-legged spider" monster ship and traveled more than ten sea areas... and now they actually saw an iron toad that could fly?

...

At this time, the "Iron Toad" obviously did not leave time for those in the Oliver family to be shocked.

There was a loud "bang" sound.

The Iron Toad jumped into the air and fell, landing steadily on the sea, splashing huge waves.

Almost at the same time,

The huge barrel in the iron toad's mouth once again lit up with a devastating blue light, which was a manifestation of the magic energy cannon being accumulated to the extreme.

Just a minute ago, this terrifying artillery sank their "No. 1 Ship" with one shot. Now, its cannon's blue magic energy beam has been charged again and is aimed at another battleship!

"this..."

Seeing this horrific scene, Oliver's fleet commander couldn't help but be frightened into a cold sweat.

He cursed angrily and said: "Damn it! How can their magic artillery recharge so fast?!"

Not only him, but any "knowledgeable" person would be shocked when encountering this kind of situation.

What is the technological level of magic artillery?

Range, power, and ammunition recharging time interval!

After the magic cannon is activated, there is a recharging process. The more continuously it is activated, the greater the load the gun barrel bears, and the longer the subsequent recharging will take...

The first shell may only take one minute to charge, then the second shot will take at least close to two minutes, and the third shot will take even longer...

But now, what did they see?

The enemy's two recharges were almost the same, both were completed in about a minute!

In the eyes of laymen, this may just be a difference of charging a little faster. But in the eyes of "experts" like the Oliver family, it is as incredible as seeing aliens.

Because this is almost impossible!
