In this great sea battle, both sides invested more than forty battleships. If cruisers and frigates were added, the total number of battleships exceeded one hundred!
In this battle, Kezan's side had the upper hand, while the Hanhai Protector's weapons were more advanced.
"Pressure the whole line! They must be completely eliminated!"
Surprisingly, in this naval battle, the one who showed the most bravery was not Vice Admiral Gryzlik, but rather the Tinker Guild President Rudolfons, who personally operated the main ship's cannon and fired continuously.
Yell and curse.
The Hanhai Protector's naval guns have a longer range and are more powerful. Even with a military disadvantage, they can still pose a huge threat to the Kezan fleet.
In Ruido Fons' view, all this was caused by the loss of goblin talent to the Vast Sea Protector.
As a trade king who started his career with technology, Rudolfons' character is as paranoid as all engineers.
He has already set his sights on a target, which is the most powerful first-class battleship in the vast sea guard fleet.
Rudolfons took out a fist-sized crystal bottle from his leather jacket, bit off the wooden cork with his teeth, drank the shining mixture in one gulp like he was drinking rum.
"Hey! That's good! Gigavont's product must be a high-quality one!"
As he spoke, Ruido Fons's already bright eyes became brighter, as if no target could escape his sight.
Many gunners and helmsmen in the Corzan fleet drank the mixture like Radol Vons.
At this time, Gigvondt, who was praised by everyone, was boiling three cauldrons of potion at the same time on his flagship Golden Crucible.
The magic potion mixture can be said to be the brightest pearl in the crown of alchemy.
It possesses extremely powerful power, which is several times that of ordinary potions. If there is any shortcoming of the mixture, it is that the storage time is too short.
This characteristic determines that the mixture cannot be prepared in large quantities before use.
Experienced alchemists will prepare some semi-finished potions that can be stored for a long time in the early stage. When the mixture is needed, they will use superb potion preparation skills to configure these semi-finished products into a mixture.
As the top alchemist, Gigerfonte was able to prepare several mixtures at the same time calmly even on this battlefield.
In order to win this war, Gigvondt worked hard. At other times, even the mixture prepared by his apprentice would have been liquid gold with a high price.
But now, the gunners, helmsmen and battle captains in the fleet can drink this stuff as rum!
The three pots brewed by Gigervonte are the Eagle Eye Mixture, the Wisdom Mixture and the Fortitude Mixture.
Due to the characteristics of this magical potion, a person can only drink one mixture at a time, and the effects of different mixtures will conflict.
These three mixtures can respectively make the gunner's shooting more accurate, the helmsman's control more calm, and the battle captain more heroic in the boarding battle.
The overall quality of the key arms of the Kezan fleet has been improved to a higher level, which instantly puts greater pressure on the fleet of the Hanhai Protector.
The navy of the Hanhai Protectorate has been established for such a short period of time, and the quality of its sailors is not as good as that of the Kezan fleet. When the opponent uses mixture, the gap becomes even wider.
Li De, who was directing the battle on the flagship "Behemoth", saw a frigate falling apart under gunfire.
He knew that the opponent's real target was the behemoth, and the sunken frigate was just a victim in the opponent's artillery calibration process.
"We can't wait any longer! It's our turn!"
Noggenfogg gritted his teeth and shouted. He led a special force of 30 people. They all took off their coats and slapped their chests fiercely.
Immediately after these goblin engineers, a pair of engineering armor that fit as tightly as clothing appeared on their bodies.
Then a backpack expanded from the back of the armor, and then the backpack and various parts of the armor began to swell and assemble and deform!
In just an instant, 30 flying golems appeared on the sea battlefield!
A flying golem, with full firepower, is as destructive to ordinary soldiers as a magister.
In the stalemate battle between the fleets of both sides, even an experienced commander like Gryzlik cannot say that he deliberately left many reserve troops to guard against the flying golem.
After all, classic goblin mechas like the Flying Golem are quite large and make huge noises when flying. As long as there are more than five of them on the battlefield, there is no way to hide them.
30 Flying Golems appeared on the battlefield in a situation that was completely unexpected by the opponent. The Kezan fleet was caught off guard and suffered considerable losses.
Taking out these 30 flying golems has already exhausted all the assets of the Hanhai Protector.
Using dwarf shrinking technology to integrate the goblin flying golem requires a lot of energy, and the best source of power is the Kaya crystal produced in Kezan.
Ever since the situation became tense, the Protector of the Hanhai Sea could no longer obtain the Kaya Crystal. It can be said that Noggenfogg just wanted to "have fun".
Just like that, all the belongings were taken out!
If you lose this battle, there will be no next chance if you want to keep your fortune.
"Sink the Golden Crucible! Don't let them have the mixture to use anymore!"
Various stray bullets hit the steel plate of the Flying Golem, making dense and crisp sounds.
Hearing Noggenfogg give such an order, the other goblin engineers suddenly became indescribably excited.
To attack a trade king! This was something they never dared to think about before!
"Don't worry about those flying demons! Attack the Hanhai Fleet with all your strength! Use your fastest speed to destroy them! Thirty ships versus ten, the advantage is mine!"
Gryzlik has no intention of continuing the battle until the next round of the mixture is used. He just wants to destroy his opponent as quickly as possible, even if this will cost him a greater price.
After all, it is the flagship of the Trade King. The Golden Crucible has good air defense capabilities. One after another, the flying golems fell from the sky in pieces.
The goblin engineers whose flying golems crashed all abandoned their equipment and used jetpacks to fly towards their own ships.
Although the Flying Golem troops suffered heavy losses, the desperate attack by 30 mechas still produced very good results.
The deck of the Golden Crucible was almost completely destroyed, and the three cauldrons were tilted and turned off, allowing the potions inside to flow everywhere.
The great alchemist Gigvondt, accompanied by his entourage, had already escaped in a lifeboat. At this time, he was looking back at the ship in the flames of war and cursing fiercely.
"God damn the Protector of the Hanhai, where did you create so many flying demon statues?!"
Since the two sides are engaged in a naval battle, who would bring such a huge and useless flying golem into the battle? Is there enough room for a mecha to store a lot of ammunition?
"I just didn't expect that dozens of flying golems together could be so powerful. I will have to ask Ruido Fons later."
While Gigervont was talking about this, Noggenfogg was also paying attention to the changes in the battlefield situation.
"Oops! Our main force is in danger! Go back for rescue!"
Noggenfogg said this, but soon there was a sound like asthma coming from the exhaust pipe of his flying golem.
Noggenfogg gritted his teeth. At this time, he decided to abandon the flying golem and return to the team with only a jet backpack.
However, at the same time that Noggenfogg abandoned the golem, a bullet hit Noggenfogg's jetpack, and his aircraft was destroyed.
At this moment, Noggenfogg had no choice but to open his parachute and float down, looking particularly embarrassed in this fierce battlefield.
Noggenfogg eventually fell into the sea, but the moment he fell into the sea, a small boat came over and fished him out of the sea.
Nogfoggal hoped that his own ship would rescue him, but in the end he was taken to the Trade Star.
"Hahaha, old man Noggenfogg, you're fine!"
Streamwilder, who was holding a cigar, clapped his hands and laughed and said that there was a smooth-shaped spear on the table next to where he was sitting, but Nogfogg did not look good on him and did not reply to him.
if.
"Don't be so cold, old man. With this situation on the battlefield, you know in your heart that you will definitely lose.
At this time, you have to find a way out for yourself. It turns out that you resigned from me.
I can give you a chance to surrender to me, and of course if you are willing to help me master the technology of the spinning factory, I can even appoint you as a trade prince."
Rousha tried to recruit Noggenfogg with a sly look on his face, but Noggenfogg simply closed his eyes. He did not believe that the Hanhai Protectorate would be defeated like this.
"Teacher, they are in danger! I have to help the teacher!"
Niebuhr, who was setting up defenses on the shore, was always paying attention to the situation at sea. When he saw that the Kezan fleet had formed a semi-surrounding situation on the Hanhai fleet, he decided to transfer all command rights to Kel'Thuzad and Galin.
"What are you going to do?! What effect can you have on your own?"
Kel'Thuzad looked at Niebuhr driving a small sampan, and he was completely confused. If he interfered with the fierce battle between giant ships, wouldn't this be a way to die?
However, Niebuhr soon gave them the answer. He put on a mask painted in blue and white, shook a scepter made of dried seaweed with both hands, and uttered a melodious and profound spell in his mouth.
The next moment, the waves under the small sampan seemed to have souls, carrying the boat and Niebuhr as they flew towards the battlefield!
As Niebuhr sailed into deeper and deeper seas, the waves also revealed its true identity: the shadow of a huge shark was none other than Deep Sea Loagroll!
Grohl's projection completely envelops Niebuhr and Sampan in his body. As the protector of the entire vast sea and the shaman closest to Grohl, Niebuhr is now like Lal in the Amani Showdown.
Like a lord, he can freely use the power of Loa.
Niebuhr relied on Grohl's power to rampage across the battlefield. At the same time, there were shamans on the shore and on the fleet ships praying to Grohl to help Niebuhr make better use of this power.
"Is this the power of Loa? It's so powerful!"
Seeing the projection knocking over a fifth-level battleship, and then flicking its tail and taking away a frigate, Garin couldn't help but say in admiration.
"Now is not the time to do this! We have to do our own thing!"
Kel'Thuzad reminded him seriously, and only then did Garin wake up from a dream.
They are responsible for the ground forces. If they lose in the naval battle, Li De will inevitably lead his men to withdraw and defend the land, so they must seize the time to set up a defense line.
Kel'Thuzad was right, Li De was indeed preparing to break through and retreat to the land.
However, Li De's plan was not to withdraw directly to Port of Hope.
"Niebuhr! Help us break out!"
Just when Niebuhr came to the "Behemoth" to take a breath, Li De suddenly said this.
"is teacher!"
Once again integrating himself into Grohl's projection, the arrogant power of Loana the Megalodon began to hit the weakest part of the enemy's encirclement net.
"Leed Victory is on the ship! We can't let them escape like this!"
On the flagship Flagship, Childros had already recognized Li De on the deck of the Behemoth through the telescope.
It turns out that the direction in which Li De and the others broke out was the fleet under the Bilgewater Cartel.
Childros ordered a semaphore sent to Cozan's other troops, confirming that the enemy leader was on board.
"Very good! Order the troops to merge towards the center! We must capture or kill Lid Victory!"
Grizlik said solemnly that in his opinion, the most important person in the Hanhai Protectorate was Li De. If Li De was allowed to escape, even if they occupied the entire Hanhai Protectorate, they would not be considered a winner.
.
Li De was surprised by the speed at which the enemy encircled them. He knew that he had to create a little chaos at this time.
Niebuhr was still using Grohl's power to rampage, and the sea was full of wreckage of sunken warships from both sides. Reed saw the opportunity and kicked the side of the ship hard with his feet and jumped overboard!
And in mid-air, Li De suddenly summoned his golden-maned BMW Zhaoxia.
"Xilulu~~"
The golden-maned horse roared violently, its hooves lightly stepped on the shipwreck on the sea, and after a few jumps, Li De and his men and horses boarded Bilgewater's flagship Whiplash!
"!!!"
When Li De appeared on the Bilgewater Cartel's ship on horseback, the sailors on the deck were a little unresponsive at first.
"Kill him!"
In the end, Childros roared angrily, pulled out the gun on his waist, and fired the first bullet at Li De.
"kill!!!"
This bullet was followed by Li De's explosive killing cry. He held a long knife in one hand and controlled the horse's reins with the other.
Reed didn't have much time to waste here. He completed the charge as quickly as possible, passed through Bilgewater's camp without any effort, and captured Childross Bilgewater alive!
"Don't move! Your trade king is in my hands! If you don't want him to die, get your ship out of the way immediately?!"
However, things backfired. Before Li De could explain the conditions clearly, a stray bullet penetrated Childros' chest!
A trade king is dead!
No one knows whether Childros died in an accident or murder. But the death of a trade king was enough to create chaos.
That is to say, taking advantage of the sudden change in the Bilgewater Cartel fleet's command chaos, the Vast Sea Fleet finally successfully broke through!
