Reborn Dragon Vein Warlock, Genius Beauty Mage

Chapter 187 Tirenian Naval Battle (1)

Tyrrhenian Sea, Sardinia.

The original stone platform under the space crack has now turned into a pyramid shape, with not only steps but also a big demon guard next to it.

Something like this.

Groups of demons came out of the cracks in the space, and then divided into three groups and walked in three directions under the leadership of the big demon.

From time to time, a group of Hill Demons would come out of the space crack carrying iron barrels. The big demon next to them would immediately drive away the other little demons to make way for them.

A magic circle the size of a football field was built in the west, north and east directions of the island not far from the sea, with a stone pool the size of a basketball court in the middle. Teams of Hill Devils carried iron buckets to the edge of the pool and poured the thick blood-red liquid inside. From time to time, little devils would drag over the remains of beasts and throw them in, as well as those unlucky ones. The corpse of a dead demon.

When the pool was full, ten demon mages immediately stepped forward, stood at the nodes of the magic circle and recited incantations, turning the blood-red liquid inside into a black gel.

After the spell was cast, the little devils waiting nearby swarmed over with various dressing tools, scooped out the contents and rushed towards various shipyards.

This black gel is an adhesive developed by the devil to solve shipbuilding problems.

Building a ship that can cross the sea is not a simple matter. If you follow the traditional shipbuilding method, let alone there are not so many craftsmen and shipbuilding tools. Just in terms of time, the devil used nothing in the year before arriving in the main world. It's done, just stay on the island.

So the devil's top management came up with a way to use adhesive to stick the wood together to build a ship. After this thing is softened by the magic circle, it becomes a very sticky glue. It will solidify after a day, similar to the feeling of hardened clay.

But after all, it is something produced in the abyss, and the effect will only last three or four days after being transported to the main world. That is to say, it is transported to the boat on the first day and can be put into the water on the second day. However, it may fail on the third or fourth night and cause the boat to disintegrate.

No one can say whether it will be three days or four days, it depends on luck.

Because it just sticks out a boat shape, the little devil can do the job. As for the masts and sails, don't think about it. A ship can probably carry more than a hundred devils, and the main power is the little devil's oars.

It's roughly the same shape, but made of thick wood.

Because of the unstable nature of the adhesive, after a batch of ships were built, the big devil drove the little devils on board, formed a fleet and set sail. It doesn't matter if the devil doesn't eat for a few days, so there is no need to think about supplies. Besides, there is nowhere to find them. Most of the birds, animals and plants on the island have been eaten by the devil.

As I said before, due to the geographical location, the human kingdom can be reached by swiping in any of the three directions: west, north, and east, so navigation is not required.

The quality of the boats built by the little devil depends on luck. Some of the boats are broken due to poor quality of wood, and some are leaking due to insufficient glue application. Almost every time there are a few unlucky boats. At this time, the big devil will run to another ship before it sinks. As for the little devil, it will fend for itself.

Tyrrhenian Sea, west of Sardinia.

A fleet was anchored on the sea, including the Elf sailing battleship Duke of York, Hood, Princess battlecruiser, Stewart's sailing battleship Tulip and a heavy cruiser.

The entire Elf expedition fleet was divided into four detachments with a configuration of one battleship and two battle cruisers for rotation, ensuring that two detachments were fighting at sea and two detachments were resting at the same time, and the Stewart leadership fleet was dispersed to join them.

There are six identical detachments in the Kingdom of Iberia, in addition to twenty reconnaissance squads composed of heavy patrols and light patrols for rotation.

At every moment, nearly a hundred soldiers responsible for reconnaissance are patrolling the air on flying mounts. Once the demon crossing fleet is discovered, they will immediately return to their reconnaissance team. The mage on the ship will use the communication circle to notify the main fleet to intercept.

Just to configure these communication circles, it cost the Kingdom of Iberia more than 200,000 gold coins, not counting maintenance and use costs.

Aboard the Hood.

The ship's mage came out of the cabin, holding a magic letter in his hand: "Captain Belsara, news came from the 13th reconnaissance team that the demon fleet was discovered."

He took the letter and glanced at it. It contained information such as coordinates and the number of demon ships.

"Order, raise sail and raise anchor!"

"As ordered!"

The flag bearer on the mast passed the order, and the ships began to take action. The sailors shouted the slogan and pushed the winch to retract the anchor chain. The sailor climbed up along the net rope to untie the sail, and the archer inspected and inspected the large crossbow arrows. Take the arrows out of the warehouse.

A few hours later, four warships arrived in the waters where the demon fleet was discovered.

However, the demon fleet is also moving and will not wait where it is found, especially since the demon's direction cannot be predicted based on its mood.

Captain Belsara ordered: "Let the air force take off."

As the flag bearer gave the signal, six Horned Eagle Knights took to the air and searched in six directions.

Anyone who has watched the movie about the Battle of Midway knows that the fleet looks very big, but when placed on the vast sea, it looks extremely small. The time difference of a few hours is enough to cause the target to be lost again.

But after all, they were lucky. Ten minutes later, a horned eagle knight reported that he had discovered the demon fleet. Leaving one heavy cruiser behind to wait for the other hippogryph knights to return, the fleet turned to move forward at full speed.

This demon fleet consists of more than ten ships, carrying more than a dozen big demons and more than a thousand coward demons. The leading big devil saw the mast of the elf warship from a distance, and immediately ordered the little devil to speed up the oars, and more than a dozen ships fled in all directions.

Captain Belsara ordered: "Send the signal and disperse the pursuit!"

The four warships drew four graceful curves on the sea and pursued them separately.

There were four devil troop carriers in the direction that the Tulip was pursuing. Although the little devils were rowing hard, there was no way they could outrun the sail-driven warships.

"One to three, launch!"

stretch! stretch! stretch!

Following the third officer's order, three explosive arrows were fired at a demon troop carrier.

Seeing this, the big demon on the ship grabbed a coward and threw it towards one of the crossbow arrows.

boom!

The crossbow arrow hit the timid demon and exploded, blowing it into pieces, but it was still blocked.

boom!

The second crossbow arrow missed and landed not far from the ship.

boom!

The third crossbow bolt hit the ship's side and exploded near the waterline, creating a large hole more than two meters in diameter, and seawater began to pour in.

stretch! stretch!

Before the big demon could react, the large crossbow on the deck fired two ordinary armor-piercing arrows and pierced his body, pinning him to the deck.

Ignore the leaky ship for the time being and chase the others first. If it doesn't sink after a while, it will be too late to do a last-ditch attack.
