Law of the Swarm

Chapter 473
In the endless ocean, there were lightning and thunder a few days ago, but after the thunder, it suddenly calmed down.

The sea was as calm as a mirror, without any ripples, and the two hundred sailing warships of the Kauz Empire came to a standstill.

During ocean voyages, the most fearful thing for ships that rely on wind power is this kind of windless weather.

In the south of the Kauz Empire, there is a year-round windless sea area, known as the Sea of ​​Death-as long as ships get lost and get stuck in it, the only ending to greet them is death.

This situation was not improved until 50 years ago, when the Kauz Empire formally formed an alliance with the murlocs.

Ships trapped in windless seas can blow the special conch made by the murlocs to get help from the murlocs and get out of trouble.

It is precisely because of the alliance of the murlocs that the Kawuzi Empire has dominated the sea areas of the two continents, and has obtained incomparably rich wealth in these years.

如今的卡乌兹帝国海军拥有着700多艘新型风帆战舰，分为30米、50米、70米三种型号，更是拥有近70万的强大的海军。

In the ocean, any force that threatens the Kauz Empire will be hit like a thunderbolt.

……

In the center of the more than 200 sailing ships on the expedition to the Golden Banana Federation, there is a black main ship about 150 meters long.

On the deck of the ship, Rondo, the expedition marshal of the Kauz Empire, was watching the cloudless sky and frowning.

Wearing a black armor, Rondo is one of the few legendary fighters in the Kauz Empire.

Next to Rondo, the fortune-telling wizard accompanying the imperial army has been busy with a crystal ball for several hours. The old wizard's head is already densely packed with sweat, but when there will be wind and waves on the sea again, the fortune-telling wizard From beginning to end, no results could be calculated.

According to the pastor of the God of Wealth, the situation at this time should be the impact of the changes in the world caused by the coming of the saints - most of the divination formulas have lost their effectiveness.

At a distance of more than ten meters from Rondo, a disabled skeleton in an iron cage was hissing and roaring from time to time.

This skeleton was one of the members of the envoy sent by the empire to the Golden Banana Federation some time ago, and was sent back to the empire by the Golden Banana Federation in a humiliating manner.

Low-level undead creatures have an abnormal desire for flesh and blood. When the ship sailed back to the empire, this disabled skeleton had already torn all the corpses of his companions to pieces, and further chewed the flesh and blood into pieces.

At the same time, more than a dozen soldiers who were a little crazy because of the torture came back. These soldiers uttered a lot of nonsense, and even a few made the empire surrender, and they were all executed by the empire.

Only this skeleton, which has completely lost its sanity, remains.

This skeleton represents the shame of the empire, and it is also an item brought by Rondo and decided to remind the soldiers of the empire at all times, and it is also a proof of the empire's revenge.

Given the chance, Rondo would return tenfold the humiliation suffered by the Empire.

……

As early as 70 years ago, in the great era when the Kauz Empire explored the sea and opened up new routes, Rondo had been to the Dragonborn Empire and lived in the Dragonborn Empire for two years.

This is why Rondo served as the coalition coach.

Compared with the vigorous development of the Kawuzi Empire, the Dragonborn Empire brought a sense of decay to Rondo.

As for the so-called Golden Banana Federation, Rondo had never heard of it at that time.

According to Rondo's knowledge, apart from the elf royal court in the north of the human kingdom where the Dragonborn Empire is located, there is actually no powerful force on that continent.

However, the route of tens of thousands of kilometers is too far away, and the Dragonborn Empire actually does not have any resources worth trading, and it also has decent strength, so it is not worth the empire to colonize.

So all these years, the Kauz Empire has been at peace with the Dragonborn Empire.

Until recently, the output of wonderful potions produced by the empire has been breakthrough, coupled with the successful research and development of new sails, the speed of the original ships has been increased by 10%.

Only then did the Kauz Empire want to open a route with the mainland of the Dragonborn Empire, and exchange wonderful potions for the wealth and slaves there.

In addition, Vioz, the God of Wealth who has recently awakened, is also one of the reasons why the empire decided to march. With the gods as the backing of the empire, the empire has become more confident.

……

"How long is the food left for the legion?" Rondo looked at the scene in the sky, and no longer looked at the fortune-telling wizard, but asked the young adjutant behind him.

Doron's adjutant is a half-breed elf with only a magical rank. Compared with Rondo's full-body heavy armor, he is still wearing a lighter black leather armor, which is also the equipment worn by all imperial navy officers and soldiers.

"Because there are ten water monsters sent by His Majesty, they can collect food from the sea at any time, and the food of the legion can last for at least half a year. However, the fresh water is only enough for two months. If we continue to be trapped here for a month, we must retreat. gone."

Although the Golden Banana Federation used unknown means to confuse the murloc kingdom, the greedy murlocs refused to help the empire to fight together.

However, the empire tried to get rid of the murloc kingdom decades ago. During these years, it has mastered the means of cultivating and driving giant extraordinary octopus monsters, and has cultivated more than a hundred giant sea monsters.

Rondo nodded and said, "I hope this windless day will pass sooner..."

In fact, the army of the Kawuzi Empire has another option, which is to use the octopus monster to pull some ships to go deep alone.

But doing so is too risky.

And just when Rondo looked at the sky again.

A faint rumbling sound came from the sky, and Rondo found a golden object flying high in the sky, and quickly passed over them...

……

……

In the sky above the endless sea, five floating warships lined up in a row began to turn around, and dozens of steel steamships on the sea also turned their bows in batches, and began to attack the Kawuzi Empire, which was a hundred kilometers away. The navy surrounded.

In a small meeting room of one of the floating battleships, a bald man with a bare upper body was watching the speech of the deputy commander of the Federation Adam on the Internet, and at the same time looked at the boy with facial paralysis who became the captain of the urban management at a young age. .

If the bald man didn't say anything, basically no one would know the true identity of the bald man.

In fact, the bald man was one of the first humans to come to the Golden Banana Federation, and it caused a lot of commotion in the Golden Banana City.

He was the traveling merchant Donne who stabbed the female druid Yvette on impulse.

Many years ago, when the Human Justice Coalition justified August's name and counterattacked the Dragonborn Empire and the Kingdom of Silver, the traveling merchant Donne played the role of threading the needle. Although it did not play a decisive role in the war, it also made the coalition forces A lot of equipment was found, which accelerated the march of the human coalition forces.

At that time, Dorn was still using the ability mall to learn spells, trying to become a mage.

His mage talent was really not that good. It wasn't until the god Duke came and [Trading Blessing] appeared in the Ability Mall that he finally found his path as a monk.

Over the years, he has successfully become stronger, and now he has reached the peak of magic, and he is only one step away from becoming extraordinary, and now he can use secret techniques to temporarily increase his life level to extraordinary...
