Chapter 651 Advance and Sigh
“Ready. Fire!”
bang! bang!
First a dazzling orange red flash, followed by a thunderous bang, and finally the azure-white smoke covering the heavens, shielding the sun, and the fifty-pound giant iron cannonball was enough to put the pre-artillery era , those small battleships with brittle hulls were directly smashed into pieces.
Although there is only one giant “Saurus Cannon” on the bow, and the firing frequency is somewhat low, but Olivia, who has the innate talent to direct the artillery to shoot, is enough to make it a piece of artillery. not just in name only, but also in reality’s ultimate weapon.
In the last glorious era of galleys hundreds of years ago, countries called this monster-like thing the “Saurus Cannon”, just because it had terrifying power and was too ugly, short and short. Thick, and a muzzle in the shape of a lizard’s mouth.
To put it bluntly, this is a very popular [mortar], which is generally installed on mortar boats to attack well-defended docks and port cities that cannot be approached by large ships.
And now the special mortar boat, the highest loaded 330mm caliber mortar, can fire 200 pounds (90kg) shells, with a range of 2700 meters, formidable power is not “Saurus gun” can mention on equal terms.
However, this 50-pound “Saurus Gun” is almost the limit of this heavy Calais with a displacement of 600 tons. The structural characteristics of the galley determine that it is not an excellent type of gunboat.
Heavy Calais is on the way to the center of the “Eye of the Giant”, and does not need to find a target for hunting. Those heroic spirit battleships that seem to have locked the “hatred” state will be slaughtered one after another. .
However.
As long as several battleships are not encircled, except for a few who can escape again, most of them become the prey of the “Saurus Cannon”, and then become Alwin’s spills of war.
Fortunately, during this time, I only saw a quasi-Legendary battleship belonging to the “secret technique Knight” from a distance, because the routes did not meet and the other party did not make a special trip to chase and kill them.
And after they captured another Clark sailboat with a towering ship, they finally had enough materials to continue to upgrade.
By the afternoon of the first day of the war, the heavy Calais had honorably fulfilled its mission and received a second upgrade from two great wizards.
Just that.
Because of the design concepts and combat methods of these ancient battleships, the materials are not very particular, and they hardly reach the level of the current large battleships. As a standard model of the “Invincible Fleet”, the large Galen, which may be more superior in material, failed to let them meet.
Therefore, the first phase of the envisaged goal: a heavy cruiser with a displacement of 2,200 tons and a heavy artillery of 24 pounds or more, cannot be achieved for the time being.
Alwin had to settle for the next best thing. By splicing the keel, thickening the ship board, and adding wood fiber reinforcement, he changed the original heavy Calais into a reinforced model with a displacement of 1100 tons. high-speed cruiser.
Although the number of artillery equipment in these battleships is not large, the caliber is also small.
But there is also an advantage, because of the lack of technology and the limitation of steel production, the artillery used on most battleships before modern times are bronze cannons that are easier to cast and cost more, and the efficiency of reactivation and refining Far more than cast iron guns.
Final.
The new battleship completely cancels the bow and tail building, increases the aspect ratio, and expands the sail area. A total of two artillery decks are equipped with 24-pound guns, 18 Sects, and 20 18-pound guns, which are more than normal Level 4 battleships. 30 pounds more per shot. The flexibility is far above it, and the speed has reached 13 knots.
Referring to the design concept of the Georgia-type rifle, the “Saurus Cannon” on the bow was re-cast, using a hexagonal rifling design to fire 32-pound hexagonal bullets.
On the premise of reducing the recoil, the effective range of this artillery can reach 2000 meters, and the rate of fire is one shot per minute, which has also become Olivia’s exclusive position.
In the battleship duel, this is a sniper gun with extremely high accuracy and long range. Some quasi-Legendary battleships that are not good at attacking may not necessarily have this level of artillery fire range.
If the reloaded cruiser “Daystar” is aimed at the cut-off design of the Level 3 battleship, then this battleship is aimed at the Level 4 battleship.
Although it certainly doesn’t have the 50-year lifespan of a normal battleship, as long as you are careful, it should be no problem to help them survive the “Eye of the Giant”.
“After two large-scale upgrades, reborn from the ashes, there is no opponent in the regular battleship!”
Alwin, Anita, Gerros, Olivia , Angie, Milan, Stephanie, and the parrot Ram entire group stood on the bow of the boat with their waists on their arms.
Milan held out his crystal ball and suggested to others:
“The image of the Divination Technique shows that our lucky point is in the northeast, and going in that direction should be the most rewarding. “
Alwin waved his hand:
“Full sail, go!”
Whoosh-
At this time, the handle The “Hatch” was finally polished to a smooth and shiny finish, cutting through the sea like a crossbow and flying towards the inner circle of the most densely populated island.
Even though some outsider teams had a first-mover advantage, they missed an entire day, but it would be enough to level the progress and get back on the same starting line by tomorrow morning.
Generally speaking It is a very ideal state for ordinary sailboats to run at a speed of 6 knots on the sea. In this ideal state, even if you want to cross this sea with a diameter of 1600 kilometers without stopping It takes at least 6 days, not to mention searching, fighting, detouring, and the wasted time is far more than that.
So what happened on the sea of the [Clock Tower] Sixth Layer is destined to be a protracted battle.
However.
After they drove away in their new high-speed cruiser.
A world seems to be separated by thousands of layers, and the sighs of some illusory are also blown to pieces by the whimpering sea breeze.
“Time and space. Being able to enter the Seventh Layer’s characteristics is a bit difficult now.”
This time.
The advance of the vanguard troops was a little faster than Alwin and the others imagined.
“You are the eagle soaring in the sky! You are the tree in the hidden forest! You are the sword in the warrior’s hand! You are the shield that protects us in battle!”
The iron-clad Knight Macaulay Auston, who held the [holy sword Adlast] bestowed by the “Angel of Victory”, recited the holy words in praise of the angel, and cut off his head with a clean sword. The head of a giant fish monster.
ka-cha ——
The first line of defense guarding a small drifting island was broken, and the dense fog that had originally covered the island also dissipated at the same time.
“Praise Goddess!”
“Speed up!”
A group of ironclad Knights, already chanting Goddess’ holy name, charged up immediately Kojima, it seems like a reloaded war chariot will flatten everything in front of him.
The many forces represented by the Church of Seven Gods want to get the [Ocean Treasure·Ancient Scroll], in order to seize the opportunity in the trend of the big voyage, which is the icing on the cake.
If your own strength is not enough, even a hundred [Ancient Scrolls] will not work.
However, the “Iron Wall Knight” and “Oath-Breaker” who shoulder important missions, the [Libra Balance Holy Sword] that they are fighting for is related to the future path of the patriarch god, with different meanings, and naturally Work harder.
It’s like a life-and-death race to start pushing hard.
But.
Divine Item [Libra balance holy sword], once owned by Goddess Demeter of business, law and wealth, he is also the god closest to the concept of “capital” in the history of ancient continents.
“Kingdom and Navigation Goddess” The main priesthoods of Hecatelle are: [Kingdom] and [Navigation]. If we say that power is related, it can only be that navigation promotes commercial prosperity, and by formulating rules (laws) ) to rule the people and maintain the kingship.
The main priesthoods of “Black Wing God” Sisi include: [Injustice], [Atrocities], [looting], [Theft], it can be said that each of these priesthoods is related to [ capital] related.
However, although the “God of Black Wings” has been given new titles such as “The Lord of Gold”, “The Ruler of Capital”, and the “God of Capital and Wealth”, for the time being, it is only based on similar The path to prepare for the migration of the priesthood, rather than already possessing the corresponding power.
So the aggregation effect of the two sides and the Divine Item [Libra Balance holy sword] is not much different, and no one can be sure about the one to emerge victorious.
Another direction for “Eye of the Giant”.
The pinnacle of the Great Knight, Don Douglas, raised high The lance with a squirrel engraved on the tip [Saint Spear Ratatosk] also praised the “Abetting Angel” under the “God of Black Wings”.
“You are a word in the letter! You are the only spokesperson of knowledge! You are the lance who stirs up the great chaos! You are the sage who stirs up the flame of thought.”
A brilliant dive light of red fell from the sky, shattering a swarm of giant Stoneman covered in moss on an island.
“All treasure belongs to the Lord!”
“Great Lord of Gold, Supreme! Most Exalted! Most God! Most Holy!”
” .”
However, the “oath-breakers” who rushed to the island behind him gave outsiders a completely different impression of selfishness, with red light eyes. , that constantly flickering rays of light actually has several points of shadows as fanatical as the previous Silver Knight.
