Chapter 735 Dangerous Sahuagin
Out of the importance he attaches to Dinosaur Island, Matthew naturally has to choose smart and capable action personnel.
In addition to Elio, Li, who is very good at fighting on the sea, was also selected.
The strength of this dragon girl, who has been studying with Matthew, has improved dramatically.
With his extraordinary talent, full development of his own bloodline power, and the supply of huge resources in the Gulf Territory.
Li had become a high-level warlock more than a month ago.
Moreover, she also passed the basic test of Matthew Arcanist and was successfully promoted to an intermediate arcanist.
In the next time, Li needs to study hard, keep researching, and work hard to grow.
When Li learned that she had been selected into the action team, she seemed very happy.
The main reason is that she has not left the Gulf Territory's training base in the Eastern Islands for quite some time.
She did not feel dissatisfied because of this, but cherished every moment she spent at the training base.
Study hard and keep growing.
The reason why Li is happy is that he can see his family again and make more contributions to the Gulf Territory.
Even if the Gulf Territory did not brainwash everyone and turn them into fanatics who were so loyal that they lost their minds.
However, many island residents, including Li, have experienced the hardships of life before, compared with the beauty that Gulf Tie brings to everyone now.
They will also be grateful and will protect the territory at all costs and make more contributions to the territory.
With this thought in his mind, Li returned home as quickly as possible.
Everyone smiled and blessed her, hoping that she would come back victorious.
Having settled his worries, Li also completely let go of the burden in his heart, and walked into the navy barracks with brisk steps.
As soon as he entered the door, everyone's gathered figures attracted Li's attention.
She walked over curiously, and what she saw was a gleaming bright silver warship!
Tall, slender, majestic and beautiful!
The hull of the ship, which is about 8 meters above the sea, shows its astonishing tonnage.
With a huge hull of 80 meters long, it exceeds all the warships owned by the Gulf Territory. It is a real giant!
The onlookers looked almost as small as mice in front of it.
The giant crossbows placed side by side on the side of the ship still give people a wonderful sense of security even if the crossbows have not been installed.
What made Li most curious was that there was no cannon firing port on the side of this steel battleship that other magic warships had.
Instead, there are 8 huge rotating steel naval guns located on the deck.
Li, who had very good eyesight, could see the caliber and thickness of these steel naval guns at a glance.
"A caliber of more than 200 millimeters? How terrifying is the power of the artillery?"
Although he was thinking so, the light in Li Li's eyes became even more dazzling.
Of course, it wasn't just Li who had shining eyes, basically everyone in the military camp had this kind of behavior.
The entire battleship is made of metal, without any wooden hull.
Iron armor, huge cannon!
Who can not be moved?
The staff is painting and coloring it to make the already dazzling silver-white hull even more dazzling.
I don't know what kind of spray paint material it is. Although it is sparkling, it is not dazzling and looks particularly soft.
All she knew was that the steel battleship in front of her stung her heart, making it beat faster and faster.
"You don't have any battle plans recently?"
"That's right, there is no new training plan!"
"If this battleship is delivered, it must be ours."
"That's true, but there are more than 20,000 people in our camp, and there are at least 15,000 people waiting to board the ship."
"Even if this steel battleship requires a lot of manpower, it may require more than 1,500 people, and the competition will be very fierce!"
"According to the previous situation, hurry up and train well first. The possibility of being selected will be greater!"
"Come on, hurry up, we can't miss this big guy!"
"With it, we will be absolutely invincible on the sea."
"..."
All kinds of exciting discussions reached Li's ears one after another.
Waves of anticipation surged in her heart, hoping that this powerful and beautiful steel battleship was just for the combat mission she had joined.
Who wouldn't want to fight side by side with such a steel battleship?
With a slight excitement, Li silently walked to the command room.
The first time she entered the door, she heard the voice of Lord Matthew that made her extremely excited:
"Sahuagin appeared on the west coast. They are a group of dangerous and powerful fish-men, belonging to an elite group of fish-men."
Sahuagin?
When I heard the word "li", I immediately remembered the knowledge I learned in the training base.
The sahuagin are a type of deep-sea murloc.
They live in the deep sea, possess very strong strength and combat effectiveness, and often attack prey and fleets on the surface of the sea.
Sahuagin are cruel, powerful, numerous, and extremely cunning.
Because sahuagin never let go of anything they can kill, they are also a nightmare for many deep-sea fleets.
The vast majority of fleets sailing on the sea are very afraid of its existence.
The reason why sahuagin are stronger is because they have taller bodies and higher intelligence than ordinary fish people, and they have even developed into the organization and social structure of a secondary civilization.
Sahuagin can grow to 1.6 to 1.7 meters long. Their limbs are flexible and powerful, and they can skillfully make and use various weapons.
They also have an extraordinary path system, with professionals such as warriors, assassins, mages, warlocks, and priests.
Although they live on the seabed, they also have a certain degree of forging ability and planting and cultivation capabilities.
Sahuagin can tame sharks or some dangerous sea monsters on a large scale to create a team of extremely lethal shark and sea monster knights.
Their intelligence is no less than that of humans, and they can even use multiple languages proficiently, including Common Language.
The Sahuagin are the strongest and most feared by other intelligent forces.
Sahuagin can control other murlocs!
"The already staggering number of sahuagins, controlling more than ten million ordinary sahuagins, are wreaking havoc on the western coast."
"They have destroyed more than 12 port cities and carried out more than 80 bloody sacrifices."
"It's obvious that the sahuagin worship some evil god and try to gain power from it."
Matthew handed more detailed information to Li who just walked in.
Li calmed down his excitement a little and looked through the information carefully, with a little bit of shock and solemnity in his eyes.
The above information records that many cities on the western coast were destroyed and destroyed by the sahuagin.
According to the survey and inspection of the site, the sahuagin performed horrific and dangerous bloody sacrifices.
This shows that they will continue to attack intelligent creatures and continue to cause more destruction and disasters.
Currently, many kingdoms and forces on the west coast are suffering from the sahuagin.
Just like the previous Kingdom of Lordaeron, they behaved very "cowardly" in the face of the massive murlocs that almost occupied most of the water.
The local lords and nobles would basically not attack these fishmen unless necessary.
Nearby villages, small fiefdoms and minor nobles, as well as thousands of ordinary people, suffered greatly from this disaster.
The Gulf Territory obtained this precious information in a timely manner through an intelligence network that gradually spread across the entire northern continent.
Li was very sensitive and quickly saw the Gulf Territory's plans and proposals to gather the affected civilians.
This made Li feel very happy, and also very angry at the inaction of those lords.
However, Li quickly controlled his emotions and quickly regained his composure while continuing to look through the collected intelligence and information.
"There are signs that a considerable number of sahuagin people have already arrived towards the area on the east coast!"
Elio, who was leading the team, "reminded" the guys with a serious expression.
The destructive power and desire to kill displayed by the sahuagin are definitely opponents that the Gulf Territory needs to be wary of and careful about.
"In the process of finding and reclaiming Dinosaur Island this time."
"Because the time is relatively long, there is a high probability that we will encounter dangerous sahuagin people."
"Because of this, we need to make some preparations and training in advance to deal with this dangerous enemy."
While saying this, Elio displayed the information about the steel battleship named "Breaking Waves" in front of everyone under the watchful eyes of many operators.
As soon as he left, he was attracted by the holographic magic image of the Wavebreaker. He carefully tasted and recorded all the information, and his dark eyes flashed with excitement.
"Li, you come to command the fleet deck combat troops!"
Not wanting to be happy too early, Elio directly called her name. The demon commander said calmly:
"In the next few days, you will lead the team to become familiar with all weapons and equipment, and conduct actual combat exercises."
After hearing this, Li obviously didn't react.
However, she was quite excited and subconsciously nodded "yes".
Even though his head was buzzing, Li still suppressed the excitement and joy in his heart and worked hard to look through the detailed data of the Wavebreaker.
"The 208mm multifunctional naval gun has an effective lethality range of 5 kilometers to 300 meters, and has legendary medium lethality."
"The shooting speed is 30 seconds/shot, the flight speed of the artillery shell is 1721 meters/second, the maximum killing range is 50-75 meters, and the accuracy offset range is 20 meters to 100 meters!"
"There are three different types of shells to choose and switch: armor-piercing shells, explosive shells, and magic shells."
The "simple" data gave Li a huge shock.
The 208 mm caliber naval gun can actually exert legendary levels of lethality.
This also means that when eight 208 mm caliber naval guns launch a salvo, there is a high probability of damaging or even killing a legendary-level enemy.
Of course, this is only an ideal situation, and you certainly know that this is difficult to achieve.
But even this is enough to show how powerful and terrifying the weapon system on the Breaker's deck is.
He breathed a little heavier and forced himself to remember these data firmly, and then began to browse the information and information on other weapons.
After reading the information and information on these weapons, Li still wanted to take a look at the various equipment on the deck of the Breaker.
If there is enough time, Li will check and communicate with his soldiers and combatants as quickly as possible.
These are the knowledge and abilities I learned from the training base.
Li did not slack off just because these knowledge and abilities could not improve her personal combat effectiveness.
She studies every course very hard and seriously.
She most enjoys the history classes, especially the history of the Gulf Territory, which is becoming more colorful.
Whenever I study historical knowledge, Li will have an inexplicable expectation.
She also wants to contribute her own strength to the development of the Gulf Territory and leave a small part in the historical record.
This is far from the greatest expectation!
November 2nd.
Eastern Islands waters.
Misty mist enveloped the entire ocean.
More than a dozen Japanese pirate warships were parked quietly on the sea.
They are waiting for prey!
Regardless of whether the fleet is large or small, they will use the cover of water mist to launch a brazen attack when the opponent is unprepared.
It is basically difficult for any ship that is approached by them to escape the fate of being captured and plundered.
They are the pirate fleet of the Japanese pirate Uekai family, with four brand-new magic warships.
Moreover, they also have magic artillery purchased from the Elf Kingdom of Cole, with the range increased to 900 meters.
At this moment, a ball of scorching dark red fire surged out from the rolling fog in the distance.
Under the horrified gaze of the Japanese pirates, it accurately hit the largest magic warship.
Boom!
The huge explosion flame instantly engulfed the magic warship protected by the magic circle.
The legendary medium-level terrifying destructive power caused the protective magic circle to exceed the upper limit of protective power, and exploded with a "bang".
The elemental turbulence that fell into the riot, mixed with terrifying destructive power, destroyed most of the structure and organization of the magic warship.
The Japanese pirates on the warship were busy preparing for battle, and were instantly torn apart by the terrifying shock wave.
They and nearly 1/3 of the magic warship disappeared, turning into a mass of twisted fragments.
The cold sea water rushed in through the huge gap.
The sea surface, which was very peaceful just now, immediately became like a trap with a terrifying mouth, dragging the magic warship and sinking into the water with unimaginable power.
"Enemy attack!!"
"Disperse quickly!!"
Sharp sounds sounded on various pirate ships.
Looking at the wreckage of the magic warship that quickly sank into the water, all the Japanese pirates couldn't help but tremble.
Where did such a terrible attack come from?
If the attack targets them.
Can they and the warship they are riding on withstand such an attack?
The Japanese pirates all had the answer in their minds, so they became even more "excited".
Unfortunately, they didn't wait for them to move the pirate warship parked on the water.
Several blasts of scorching red light of destruction had already cut through the water mist again, and the rotating hammer struck over.
Boom!
The continuous explosions immediately drowned out all other sounds on the sea.
The flying cannonballs accurately hit every pirate warship.
Including the four latest magic warships, a total of 11 warships were destroyed.
Large pieces of warship wreckage were basically dragged to the bottom of the sea.
Only a few lucky and unlucky Japanese pirates escaped before the attack with the help of small wreckage or prepared escape tools.
They floated on the rough sea, surrounded by small pieces of warships scattered everywhere, watching in horror the direction of the attack.
"What kind of enemy can launch such a terrifying and devastating attack?"
Under the unbelievable gaze of these Japanese pirates.
A huge steel monster suddenly smashed through the fog blocking the road and appeared in front of them.
The conspicuous, eye-catching, yet hated and feared Gulf Territory dragon-shaped emblem proves that it is a combat unit of the Gulf Territory.
After recording the data and checking the shooting effect, Li glanced excitedly at the hundreds of surviving Japanese pirates, smiled and said:
"Oh, there's no need for these guys to waste cannonballs, they won't survive long."
Not only are there many types of creatures in the ocean, but the various foods and magic materials are also exciting to many forces and organizations.
However, the danger and terror of the ocean will be fully demonstrated next.
The plight of lack of water and food will cause many Japanese pirates to sink into the sea.
Fortunately, most of them were killed by other people!
After all, killing each other is also the style of Japanese pirates.
The Breaker broke through the waves, leaving behind only a group of panicked and frightened Japanese pirates.
Li Te made the Wave Breaker go around in a circle, slightly changing its path and trajectory.
The purpose of doing this is naturally to prevent the Wave Breaker from being detected by enemies or interested parties.
Fortunately, the Japanese pirate fleet that was destroyed just now was the last prey encountered by the Breaking Waves.
Li looked at the misty blood moon in the sky, and immediately rested on the spot without letting the Wave Breaker move forward.
Li Ziran was not idle either, counting battle results, patrolling the deck, inspecting weapons, and performing maintenance and repairs.
A lot of work kept Li busy until 9 o'clock in the evening before he got time to rest.
Alio was quite satisfied with Li's performance. While flipping through the image map, he said expectantly:
"Practice for more than a week and experience a few more fierce battles, and you will be able to truly stand on your own."
Regarding the evaluation given by Elio, Matthew also believed that it was very pertinent.
Li's demonstrated ability to be careful, patient, quick to learn, and improve quickly has basically no shortcomings except for the need for more training in big scenes.
Matthew withdrew his attention from the study of the ninth surgical transformation, turned to Xiao Menglan, who was sleeping soundly beside him, and said:
"Are the other Leviathans already in place?"
Little Menglan, who was sleeping soundly, wiped her sleepy eyes, her black and white eyeballs rolled slightly, reached out to pat the improved watch, and chatted happily.
Two minutes later.
After getting all the information, Xiao Menglan told Matthew without hesitation.
After Matthew confirmed that the Leviathans were basically in place, he breathed a long sigh of relief.
After all, the Gulf Territory is "fishing" right now.
But sometimes, the targets of the bait are not just those that the Gulf leaders want to deal with.
Therefore, Matthew naturally has to prepare more trump cards.
What's interesting is that when the time comes late at night, when the scarlet moon hangs high above the sky.
The fish really took the "hook".
A large number of red and eye-catching light spots appeared in the enemy detector of the Wavebreaker.
The combatants immediately reported this to Elio.
As the commander-in-chief of the operation, Elio looked at the dense red dots with a little excitement on his face:
"Say Cao Cao, and Cao Cao will be here."
"These sahuagin are so cooperative, I really can't bear to be cruel to them..."
After hearing this, Li felt a little bit of fun in his heart.
What she likes to hear most is Elio's irony.
No matter what the situation is, Elio always faces it with humor and indifference.
This is where we need to continue to improve.
"Pa da" clapped his hands, Elio asked everyone to look over, issued the battle plan that he had already prepared, and said impatiently:
"I thought I would have the opportunity to actually fight when I really wanted to take action."
"I didn't expect that these guys would come to my door."
"In that case, let's show these guys how powerful they are first."
"Don't throw depth charges in a hurry, wait until the critical moment to use them, prepare to train other combatants."
Soon, the quiet Wavebreaker came to life in just one minute.
In order to deal with the large-scale emergence of sahuagin underwater, various weapons must be quickly adjusted.
Fortunately, the soldiers selected by Elio and Li are basically very good elites.
They maneuvered the Wavebreaker to leave their original position and temporarily put some distance between them and the sahuagin.
When these dangerous and deadly sahuagin start chasing the Wavebreaker.
With the shooting angle and distance, the 208 naval gun emitted one dazzling fire after another.
boom! boom! boom!
In the face of the legendary level of destructive power, even the stronger sahuagin are completely unable to withstand such a destructive impact.
The explosive bombs that exploded immediately wiped out a large area of the dense red dots representing the breath of life without hesitation.
The sahuagin who suffered a sudden attack showed a very high IQ.
They did not continue to gather together, but quickly dispersed at an alarming speed.
They are like a large net pulled from the bottom of the water, preparing for the final capture of prey.
The Wave Breaker did not panic, and advanced and accelerated in an orderly manner, without rushing away from the battlefield, allowing the sahuagin to maintain a chasing distance.
Soon, various weapons and equipment on the Breaker were used against the surrounding sahuagin.
Various usage feedback and data will make them play a vital role when they are actually put into production and improved.
But what makes Elio interesting is.
Even though the sahuagin suffered a lot of losses due to various attacks, they still had no intention of giving up the attack.
"Are you interested in us?"
"I have to say, they really have a good appetite!"
