A group of people came to the edge of the ice. WwW, QunabEN, coM Salin looked at the hundreds of people following him. He didn't know how to make a demagogic speech. He just handed the dimension stone to Nailis and said: "Let the battleship be launched into the water."
With such a huge warship taken out of the dimension stone, even if Saleen's mental power is no different from that of a magician, it is still a heavy burden. Every time it is collected and released, most of his mental power will be consumed. Anyway, even if Nellis uses up her mental power, her physical fighting ability is still there.
Nailis didn't say anything. She jumped into the cold sea water. No one knew what skills she used. The sea water only reached her ankles. There was no flash of magic light, and the huge battleship suddenly appeared. Everyone felt an oncoming force, like a heavy pressure on their hearts.
This two-hundred-meter-long warship is entirely cyan, with a huge dragon head at the bow without any decoration. Two sharp dragon horns stretched forward, as if they were going to pierce everything in front of them. Even if it is a mountain.
boom!
Suddenly there was such a huge thing in the sea water. The water being squeezed out suddenly made a bursting sound, and the water splashed tens of meters high. Kornuk and Passatero released the invisible shield in time to avoid everyone becoming drowned. .
Click…
The battleship twisted in the water, making people think it was an illusion. The huge scales made of thunder cloud wood rub against each other, and the sound they make is almost inaudible.
"Get on the ship." Saleen smiled, and dozens of skeletons jumped tens of meters nimbly, jumped onto the deck, and got into the cabin. The Pan Turtle Alchemy Ship slowly came under the battleship. The Winged Skeleton commanded the skeletons inside and found the magic circle that controlled the battleship. Although these skeletons had wisdom, they could not release any magic. Under the command of the Winged Skeletons, they embedded the magic cores they carried in the corresponding parts. Only then did the dragon-skeleton battleship officially start and move towards the ice.
The bone wing on one side slowly unfolded and rested on the ice. Everyone followed Salin onto the deck of the battleship.
"Cornuco, you will be the captain for the time being. This is the structural diagram of the battleship." Salin handed a drawing to Cornuko. The magicians each went to find their own positions. Salin called to the Winged Skull and said, "I only left Zola in the city. Don't follow me. If anything happens in the city, please inform me as soon as possible."
"Master, the connection between you and me will be completely severed if it exceeds about twelve miles!" Winged Skeleton said with some worry.
"I'm going to have a look at the natural harbor in the south. Do you remember that place?"
"Remember." Winged Skull replied.
The natural port Salin mentioned is four hundred miles south of Metatrin City. As a port, the natural conditions here are better than Metatrin City. Although it is only four hundred miles away, the freezing period is obviously much shorter. However, the land at this location is surrounded by mountains on three sides and close to the sea on one side. There is no way to communicate with the land except by walking from the sea.
It's okay to build a fortress here, but it's impossible to use it as a commercial city.
Salin has always been thinking about this place, but when he builds the city, he also has to consider the issue of income. Even if you don’t do business, you still have to farm. This harbor is a dead place, with a land area of only a few dozen square miles. It would be enough to build a city in such a large place, but all the food in the city would need to be transported by sea.
There is a plain across several rivers to the north of Metatrin City, and there are hundreds of bungalows on land to the south that can be cultivated. Self-sufficiency is no problem. Moreover, there is a gap in the mountains to the west of Metatrin City, which can lead directly to the plains in the distance. There is more land and it can also contact Phoenix.
Saleen calculated in his mind that the speed of the warship he could build must exceed seventy miles. This natural harbor was only four hundred miles away from Metatrin City. All in all, it's only less than six hours away. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack here. You can build a fortress to support each other with Metatrin City.
As long as this fortress is established, the only way to attack is by sea, and there is no need to worry about being attacked from land. When the mage from Sreig Island arrives, a large number of warehouses can be built here to store food for a long time. The food purchased and harvested by oneself in the future can be placed here, and it is absolutely safe.
Of course, if you can have an artifact like Rex's Shinra Ring, you don't have to worry about food storage.
Most of the dragon carcass battleship was not in the water. After the magic circle was activated, it floated up normally. If the skeleton was too slow to go up, I'm afraid the battleship would sink directly to the bottom of the sea. After the magician and the skull door were in place, the bone wings on both sides of the dragon battleship slightly adjusted their shape, the stern of the ship swung, and it quickly turned around and headed south.
Saleen keenly felt that the warship turned around at least ten times faster than a sea-going ship of the same size. Moreover, when the dragon's tail swung, the battleship itself did not vibrate violently. On the back deck of the battleship, three magic arrays formed a triangle and were activated. In the center of the triangle, a huge magic sail with a height of more than forty meters slowly appeared.
This is undead magic, the sail of shadow, which has no offensive power and is also used to sail ships in the plane of the undead. Skull Gate raises this sail of shadow, which can reduce the consumption of core power.
What Salin handed over to the skeletons were all level four magic cores, nothing high-end. After all, it would be too wasteful to use advanced magic cores to drive ships.
After the sail of shadow is raised. The speed of the dragon-wrapped battleship did not increase, and the huge battleship sailed southward silently. Generally speaking, a sailboat can reach its maximum speed when going against the wind. Driving downwind is a big test for sailors and requires strong boat control capabilities.
But these skeletons are tireless and basically infallible. Saleen stood peacefully on the deck in front. The sea in front was broken by the warship, and the water was surging.
If you want this ship to have combat effectiveness, the sailors and swordsmen must continue to practice together, which is another expense! Saleen thought helplessly that the core power of this ship relied on level four magic cores, which consumed at least six cores an hour, and more during battle.
Six level four magic cores, even if you don't buy them in the store, are worth more than a thousand gold coins. As the magic core that drives the magic circle, it must be of the best quality, and it is impossible to deal with it with defective products. Otherwise, the magic circle will not work well, and may even explode.
The large number of level 4 magic cores that Saleen obtained cannot be sold because there are too many. If they are sold, the price of the magic cores will immediately drop. Selling less. It doesn't make any sense.
At one thousand gold coins an hour, the driver of this dragon-skeleton battleship is burning money. However, Salin was so satisfied with the speed of this battleship that he used the Shadow Sail to replace part of the power and easily reached seventy miles. At this time, the consumption of the magic core is at least halved, and the magic circle will be fully operational during the battle.
If he hadn't gone to the Frozen Sea, he wouldn't have been able to use such a warship even if he had one.
In less than five hours, the dragon-wrapped battleship arrived at the natural harbor. The frozen sea here was only a dozen miles wide. Salin was about to ask the battleship to stop. Everyone went to take a look at the natural harbor and draw a detailed map. . So go back and design a fort. Suddenly, a swordsman from Srig Island ran onto the deck and said to Salin: "Sir, the captain has noticed that the warship is approaching."
"How close?" Saleen asked. He also knew that it wasn't too far away, and the distance that the magic compass could monitor was limited. The warship that suddenly appeared was already within fifty miles at least.
"The distance is about eighty miles. The battleship should not be big, about eighty to one hundred meters, otherwise we can find it earlier."
"How many are there?"
"Six lines, one formation."
Saleen calculated in his mind that if the enemy's warship performed well, he would be able to discover the existence of his warship in half an hour at most. Salein was not afraid. Warships under 100 meters carried a limited number of magic trebuchets and could not pose any threat to his ship.
No matter how good the magic trebuchet is, the attack distance is only about five miles. Although your dragon skeleton battleship has not yet produced bone spirits, you don't need to be afraid of these ships. But what are these ships doing coming to the north? There are no docking cities in the north. Lianyun City has probably been occupied for a long time. These ships could be from the East China Sea island countries.
Could it be that he didn't kill all the people last time and ran away, and his city was discovered by the expeditionary force
Saleen still made some mistakes in his calculations. To find the target with the magic compass, it usually needs to be compared with a familiar chart, or the target is too obvious. The detection range of his dragon skeleton battleship is so far entirely because of the eye of the undead on the dragon's head. The eyes of the undead, combined with the magic compass, can detect all targets with a breath of life.
It would be difficult for the fleet in the distance to find Saleen's warship. The dragon-wrecked warship was completely enclosed, with only a few people standing on the deck, and the magic compass might not be able to identify it.
"Sir, what should I do?" The swordsman was still waiting for Salin's order.
Salin thought for a while. If the Pan Turtle Alchemy Ship was there, it wouldn't be a problem to deal with these six ships. But now that he didn't have the Bone Spirit, he could only use the stupidest method to get close to the enemy ship and board the ship to fight. Although there are a few warriors here, there are three great magicians. With Sikka and Nailis still there, it is impossible for the battleship on the opposite side to have such a strong combat effectiveness.
"Go up to them. As long as they are not Alchemy City's battleships, they will all be rammed and sunk."
The swordsman was stunned for a moment, saluted, and went back below the deck. The warships on Srig Island also had collision angles, but if one against six, they would sink all of them, the swordsman was inevitably a little unconvinced.
"Let's go down too." Salin said to Sikka and Nailis who had been following him. The collision of warships is quite powerful. When this dragon-wrecked warship was designed, only the internal cabin could reduce the feeling of shock. Standing on the deck, Salin would definitely be in a hurry.
Unlike ordinary battleships, the captain's cabin of the dragon warship is below the deck, and the buildings on the deck are for swordsmen. The swordsmen have gathered and are waiting for orders. Once they get entangled with the enemy ship, they will board the enemy ship to fight. With the help of the sailors, the swordsmen began to put on their armor and inspect their weapons. In the captain's room below the deck, Cornuco stared at the magic compass. The six targets on the compass were getting closer and closer, and they had already turned around and were aiming at the dragon-wrapped battleship. E! ~!
