Chapter 488: The Fierce Battle Between Heavenly Pole Five
Chapter 488 Fierce battle in Tianji (5)
A month ago, since the foxes started using [Killer Whale Golems] to attack human fleets, the mermaids have stepped up their defenses on the bottom of the sea. Their Kraken troops have been deployed along the Mediterranean coast and have been able to effectively suppress the Killer Whale Golems.
's attack.
However, ten days ago, a more powerful enemy appeared in the sea. It appeared in an instant and disappeared in an instant, killing many sea monsters and causing heavy losses to the mermaids' sea monster troops.
In order to confront this [unknown enemy in the sea], the troops sent by the mermaids were none other than this large submarine [Ice Crystal].
However, the sonar detection technology of the mermaids is exactly the same as that of humans, and there is no room for improvement. Their sonar capabilities are limited and they are always unable to capture this [unknown enemy] lurking in the deep sea.
Ivan, who can use the eagle eye technique to "see" movement within a range of five kilometers, is currently the last hope of the mermaids.
"There's no way." Tristan sighed, "Push forward five nautical miles. Stay alert in the meantime. If you can't find anything during this patrol, just return."
Submarines cannot risk searching deep into the Underdark. God knows how many killer whale golems are waiting for them.
"Speaking of which," Ivan started chatting while searching in order to ease the tense atmosphere, "I haven't seen Bedivere and Arthur for a long time. I don't know if they are okay."
"Arthur's sister Vivian came here the day before yesterday and took Bedi's armor away. It seems that Bedi will join them." Tristan had no choice but to reply, "I hope others are still safe."
(I hope Bediville won’t do anything dangerous.)
"Well...it's really not easy to stop this war." Ivan said to himself.
He had fought against the Hungarians several times on the German front. The scenes were very bloody, with many humans and orcs dying. The soldiers on the field were almost all untrained civilians, but both sides treated these
The civilians were the first to push out and fight. I really don’t know what they were thinking.
Germany currently has six million militiamen. These people are mainly poor people drawn from the slums of the German Empire, the Roman Kingdom, and the Pantoracan Kingdom.
The purpose of letting them play first is very clear... it is to let these scum of society be the first to die.
What puzzles Ivan the most is that these poor people are willing to go to the battlefield in order to have a good meal in the army. They hold the most primitive iron swords and use these blunt irons with the orcs to smash each other to death.
The same goes for the orcs, who sent out old and weak soldiers, and the weapons in their hands were all kinds of sticks, branches, farm tools, and even bare hands.
Ivan could be considered a Gaia knight after all. His position allowed him to watch two groups of militiamen fighting each other from a distance on the city wall. He had been unable to restrain his impulse several times and wanted to go to the battlefield to help, at least to allow the friendly forces to fight.
The militiamen died less. But his brother Oyun Yuns stopped him.
Knights must abide by discipline, especially in the battlefield. Their superior field commander does not allow the main force to attack, and Ivan cannot disobey orders.
However, even if he can play, what can he do?
The orcs on the other side are just civilians, and most of them are even young soldiers. If Ivan is asked to go out to massacre these orcs, can he do it?
"You know, the Hungarians seem to have gathered those old people and children who [have no contribution] and are [too weak] to the clan, and throw them into deep pits to feed the monsters, fattening the monsters for food." Aoyun said at that time
He advised, "Now, they are just sending these people who were originally sent to be used as Warcraft feed back to the battlefield. What you are facing are just pieces of dead meat. Their fate is death anyway, so don't worry too much."
(Even if you say so.)
(Looking at the battlefield littered with corpses from a distance is still unbearable.)
"What are we fighting for?" Yi Shiwen muttered.
In the dark ocean, a shadow moved momentarily. This change immediately caught Ivan's attention, and he immediately came back to his senses from his memories: "There is something approaching from the three o'clock direction! It is half a mile away, and the elevation angle is twenty degrees...
....The speed is very fast, be careful!"
"Evasive action, full left rudder, full speed forward!" Tristan shouted immediately.
"Hurry! It's two hundred yards away!" Ivan urged. The black shadow was coming at an alarming speed. If you continue like this, you will be hit!
The crew members inside the ship all worked nervously and orderly.
In the engine room, the mermaids injected more photons into the ship's engine. The photons, catalyzed by the magic spell pattern, instantly turned into huge kinetic energy, spraying the original water inside the engine out at high speed, propelling the submarine to sail.
"Sixty yards!" Ivan could already see the appearance of that thing clearly. It was a killer whale golem, but it was slightly different from an ordinary killer whale golem.
As the water in the engine room is discharged, more water is pressed into the engine room. The photons are converted into kinetic energy, and the water is ejected at high speed again, driving the submarine to sail. This cycle continues again and again, generating continuous propulsion.
!
"Twenty yards!" That thing was surrounded by a layer of black, disgusting substance like mucus. It was this black mucus that reduced the friction between the golem and the water, allowing it to move so fast!
------Whoosh!
Everyone could clearly hear the sound of water being stirred up by the golem as it passed by the submarine. The [Ice Crystal] was shaken by the water, but its outer shell was extremely strong and there seemed to be no problem.
"Honestly," Tristan asked urgently, "is it faster or is [ice crystal] faster?"
"...Probably about the same." Ivan answered while calculating.
That thing moved half a mile in half a minute, and the [Ice Crystal] sailed at full speed at a speed of sixty knots (one knot is equal to one knot per hour), so they are indeed comparable in speed.
[Ice Crystal] uses a vacuum membrane to reduce friction in the water, and that thing also uses black slime to reduce friction in the water. No one has a particularly big advantage.
The submarine was moving at full speed, with more than one black killer whale statue following behind it!
Five black killer whale golems are chasing the [Ice Crystal]!
"The foxes actually created five monsters like that?!" Ivan couldn't help but marvel.
The mermaids have already put in a lot of effort just to make this [Ice Crystal]. Unexpectedly, the golem made by the foxes already has the same performance, but is smaller and lighter!
In the end, modern war is a competition between technologies. Whoever has more powerful technology will be sure to win.
But now it seems that the human alliance, which has abundant resources, has actually lost to the fox tribe in terms of technology!
