Trina led the sea warriors to move towards Houyi and Xingtian under the constant flying bullets and shells. They suffered heavy casualties and finally reached a position where they could fight back with magic and bows and arrows.
But at this time, there were only ten ships that could follow her flagship. The ten or so mermaid mages and two or three hundred Armor archers on these ten ships, under the command of Trina, began to launch a counterattack.
Most of the mermaid mages are good at water and ice magic, so their way of attack is to use vortex magic to disrupt the movement of enemy ships and to summon hail and ice spears from the sky to attack the enemy.
However, the hail and ice spears were blocked by Houyi's own shield and caused no casualties. Instead, the whirlpool technique that was originally used to capsize the boat had an unexpected effect.
Under their control, the water under Houyi and Xingtian began to flow in one direction, slowly forming a vortex. Houyi was actually driven by the vortex and its direction was deflected. Although the ship turned only about 20 degrees, the route of Houyi changed from cutting through the side of the sea clan fleet to heading towards the sea clan. As a result, the pneumatic cannons that were originally aimed at the sea clan were deflected. The pressure on the sea clan warships suddenly decreased. However, this had no effect on the marines on the ship, and they continued to harvest the lives of the sea clan with bullets.
"That's it! Make their ships turn so that those strange catapults won't hit us. Rush aboard and kill them all to avenge our dead people!" Trina shouted at the bow of the flagship.
However, the mages on the Houyi responded to this situation immediately. Mei Tiantian walked to the side of the boat, looked at the water flow below, and began to calculate the key points of disturbing the water flow. She stayed there for about ten seconds, stretched out her right hand over the side of the boat, and pressed down. A few points of starlight pierced into the water from her fingertips, and the water flow below suddenly stagnated for a moment, then stopped turning and dissipated calmly.
"Is this the power of space? That little girl is actually a great magician?" Trina felt incredible.
She led her mages to stir the water more vigorously, but Umeda seemed to be able to see through the secrets of the water and she alone hindered the efforts of many mermaid mages.
What they didn't know was that the mages of the Star Tower were skilled in changing the structure of space. Umeda Tian continuously deflected the space near the water flow, generating a large amount of turbulence in all directions, which almost completely offset the efforts of the mermaid mages.
Immediately afterwards, other mages on Houyi also launched an attack.
Xiao Chen, Luo Ling, Huang Zheng and others began to gather electric light in their hands. In less than a minute, one after another, basketball-sized electric balls were thrown from the boat into the sea.
This magic is a new magic that Xiao Chen and his companions have just jointly created. Xiao Chen named it Lightning Net. It is a joint magic.
The electric balls that fell into the water generated arcs between each other, and the arcs formed a large net, and the target of this large net was the sea creatures in the water.
The large area of water in front of the Houyi became an area covered by electric grids. Those sea creatures still swimming in the water were hit by the electric current and began to twitch in the water. This kind of attack was more effective than bullets. There was no need to worry about the problem of hitting the target. As long as they were between the electric balls, those sea creatures would be stunned or electrocuted one by one.
Except for a few clever sea creatures that dived underwater or flew into the air, the rest of the sea creatures stopped moving one after another and floated on the water. Even some scale creatures that had already reached a very close position and were ready to start drilling through the bottom of the ship were caught in this huge electric net.
Some electric balls ran out of energy and disappeared in the water, but Xiao Chen and his team kept throwing down new balls of light, making the net bigger and denser.
At the same time, Mao Kai on the Xingtian also took action. He used another idea to fight against the sea tribe. He first asked his magicians to cast grease magic on the sea. Large pieces of black grease spread on the sea surface. This kind of grease was originally used to restrict the enemy's actions when used on land. They floated on the sea surface and stained the bodies of the sea tribe warriors with the waves. After a while, hundreds of black figures appeared. Just as these warriors struggled in the grease and tried desperately to shake it off their bodies, Mao Kai threw a fireball into the sea. When the fireball touched the sea surface, it spread into a fire blanket, and the black sea water in front suddenly turned into a sea of fire.
Moreover, the mages around him began to create strong winds, which fueled the fire and pushed the flames towards the enemy fleet.
The sea warriors who were swimming towards the two ships were hit by fire and electricity at the same time, as if they were trapped in hell. Some of them had just escaped from the sea of fire and were caught in the electric net before the flames on their bodies were extinguished. Others had been knocked unconscious by the electric shock, but they turned into fire men without knowing it.
When Trina saw Xiao Chen and the others attack, she finally realized that the people here were all terribly powerful. At least she herself could not cast electric and fire magic so easily. She began to understand why her initial tactics failed. It was not because her methods were problematic, but because the enemy was too powerful. There were six or seven great magicians that she and the people she brought could not fight against. Even if the opponent did not have those strange weapons, she had no chance of winning.
She didn't even know what would happen if her sea warriors rushed onto the ship.
"Lady Trina, the enemy's sea of fire is getting closer and closer to us. If it continues like this, it won't be long before our ship is burned!" the Naga guard beside her reminded.
Trina said: "Give up controlling the water flow under the other ship and try your best to push those flames back!
Listen, all merman wizards, use the currents of water to clear a path through the sea for the shark warriors to reach the enemy ships!"
Trina gave the order, but it was very difficult to do so in the chaotic battlefield.
The flames and electric nets separated their warships, making it difficult for them to gather a team. Some mermaid mages could only barely prevent the sea of fire from approaching their ships.
More and more bodies of sea tribe warriors floated up from the sea. Huang Zheng did not stop his movements and said, "Look at these guys. This really looks like a pond with fried fish. With all that fire, there's no need to add salt. It's just a pot of fish soup."
Xiao Chen did not have such a bad taste. There was pity in his eyes. He said, "That's enough. I think this lesson is profound enough!" (To be continued)
