Theresa grew up under the watchful eyes of "Light", and before she met Yang Hao and became the faith leader of the demons, strictly speaking, Theresa was the only true believer of "Light".
There is no way that "Light" could mistake Teresa, and naturally, there is no way that Teresa could mistake "Light" either.
Even though Theresa always scolded Guangming for being idle and doing nothing, in fact, if someone really insulted "Guangming" in front of her, she would definitely draw her sword and fight the person to death.
Because of this, Yang Hao and Fen would only make small jokes about matters related to "light", not only to take into account God's feelings, but also to take into account Theresa's reverence for "light".
In a sense, it is impossible for Theresa to mistake the "light" - you can say that she might mistake Finn and Naluga in bed one day, but she will never mistake the existence of "light", absolutely not.
In this case, if Theresa firmly believes that the underground existence is "light", then the other party must be "light".
"Well. Since you said so, I am willing to believe it completely, okay? But Yang Hao... at least we must ensure the safety of the three of us, understand?"
"I know the order of sacrifice very well, and I also know the value of the three of us, so you can rest assured - we will only come down to open the church after the battle is over... As for the rest, we will slowly wait for everyone to be ready."
At this point, Yang Hao patted Fen's hair, and amid the little elf's unhappy expression of "You'll be in trouble tonight", he picked up the little elf amid the elf's screams and the soldiers' sidelong glances, and then walked behind Theresa with her blushing face.
After waiting quietly for Theresa to finish her prayer, he stretched out his free hand and pulled the little nun up:
"how's it going?"
"Let's make sure the people below are indeed "bright". Theresa pouted, holding Yang Hao's hand and stood up, then rolled her eyes at Fen who was held in Yang Hao's arms: "After all, he is a bastard who knows all the embarrassing things I did when I was a child... Speaking of which, can you at least consider my feelings when flirting in broad daylight?"
"Want one?"
"Hmph... Let's talk about it after we finish what's going on here - in short, I've already told Light that He just needs to stay down there and we can take Him away after we've dealt with the enemies on the surface...
But He is really very weak now, and in a sense, He has even become a mortal body that can be killed.
We must prepare a safe environment for Him... In addition, we may need to pay special attention to His current physical condition...
The good news is that the God of Light does not seem to be as powerful as we once thought.
Because if the God of Light was truly invincible, he would have come here in person to take the Light away."
Theresa's statement left everyone silent for a long time.
Then, Fen jumped down from Yang Hao's arms, and after slightly adjusting the wrinkles on her dress, she tilted her head and asked a question:
"In other words, we have received a clear piece of good news: we can "kill gods"?"
"Strictly speaking, yes." Theresa nodded, "But this requires the help of "Light" - otherwise we have to do it ourselves. If the God-killing is successful, the United Nations will also be destroyed, right? But if "Light" is willing to help us, then the problem will not be too big..."
After receiving enlightenment from "Light", everyone gained a deeper understanding of the current situation of the God of Light.
First, the God of Light has been reduced from an unkillable god of faith to an "ordinary god" who can be killed.
Secondly, even if it is an ordinary god, the United Nations can only fight against it alone at the risk of national collapse, so everyone needs the help of "Light".
Third, in a sense, the God of Light seems to have completely given up on faith, or rather, has completely given up on the faith called "Church of the God of Light"... He seems to be transforming himself into something even more bizarre, and before he succeeds...
"We have about two years - but considering that the current God of Light doesn't seem to be as difficult to deal with as the "Titan Demon" in the records, I think we should be able to annihilate it, right?"
"To be honest, we haven't encountered any Titan Demons yet. If we must say, it seems that the closest "Titan Demon" to us is actually the "Ice Disaster" in the north?"
"In other words, as long as we can kill the Ice Disaster, then killing the damn God of Light will be a piece of cake. And it is said that the Kingdom of Eden also killed a Titan Demon when it descended, right? With their help, maybe it will be easy for us."
"Theresa, you and Finn don't seem to have a very good impression of Elena, huh?"
"That, that's another matter! We definitely recognize the value of Eden in the international community! But... but when it comes to Elena, that's another matter!"
The little nun was a little mad. When she got back on the airship, she bit Yang Hao's wrist fiercely, making her look more like a little female cat who found out that her owner had a cat outside rather than a proper Basilisa.
Fen also deeply agreed with this, but Yang Hao felt wronged - after all, Elena just wanted to be friends with him. They were just friends, was it necessary to do this
But explaining now would only make things more confusing - in desperation, Yang Hao could only put his finger on Theresa's tongue to calm her down a little.
Then they came behind Arthur and others who were working intensively, and watched quietly as they made yet another modification to the airship.
Rather than calling it a "renovation", it is more like an "emergency reinforcement" - after all, there is no condition to modify the appearance of the airship right now. Instead of going to great lengths to strengthen the structure of the airship once again, it is better to use the elves' enchantment ability to make the entire ship more practical.
The places that need to be strengthened using the elves' enchantment magic are the machine guns and heavy machine guns on both sides of the airship, the hull of the airship, and the two fuel-air bombs mounted below.
Among them, the machine gun requires the least enchantment - on the one hand, you only need to ensure that the machine gun can operate normally without exploding when used in the air. On the other hand, instead of wasting magic power on the gun body, it is better to spend magic power on more valuable places.
And to put it bluntly, the machine guns currently installed on the airships used by Golem are not very accurate. Instead of constantly strengthening its weaknesses, it would be more practical to continue to strengthen its strengths.
"To prevent heat transfer from barrel explosion... and to ensure the stability of the gun structure... In general, there aren't many places where the machine gun needs enchantment - this shell can only support us for five minutes of continuous shooting at most..."
Fen murmured thoughtfully as she calculated the amount of ammunition stored in the cargo hold of the airship. After realizing that no matter how she saved it, it could not last ten minutes of continuous firing, she shook her head, concluding that it was impossible for the airship to provide fire support for the entire battlefield.
Yang Hao agreed with this, and further explained that the airship would not stay in the sky above the front of the battlefield, but would wait on the side of the reserved fire scene. He replied with emotion:
"So letting the shooters conduct burst fire is the key to this operation. Of course, the most critical point is that before the enemy shows an opportunity to take advantage, we must try our best to avoid the airships pouring fire...
It is best to wait until the believers are deeply trapped in the fire and huddled together before opening fire. This way, the casualties on the believers from the side will increase significantly...
And as long as we stay below 200 meters, the accuracy of the machine gun is actually within an acceptable range."
"But the enemy won't be so stupid as to pass through the area guarded by the airship, right? And at an altitude of 200 meters... How can we hide the whereabouts of the airship?"
"Don't the elves have a magic called invisibility?"
When Finn and Theresa asked, "How to hide the airship?", Yang Hao just smiled and said, "Invisibility" would be enough.
If it is a helicopter or gunship on Earth, because of the unconcealable sound emitted by the engine all the time and the impact of dust blown by the airflow when the rotor rotates, even if they can be completely optically invisible, it is almost impossible to completely detect the whereabouts of the Earth's aircraft.
But in this world, faced with an airship that can fly quietly and hardly cause any air disturbance, as long as the airship can be made to disappear visually without a trace, then it is possible to make the airship disappear completely without a trace in the true sense.
The elves just happened to possess invisibility magic that could block vision - this magic had already proven its value when they had previously infiltrated the Roman capital.
It can not only make the human body invisible, but also make the equipment worn by the person invisible.
Moreover, the airship is not like the nearly magic-immune Miss Black Dragon. Most of its sophisticated equipment requires magical technology to operate normally.
In this case, it would be extremely easy to use invisibility magic to make the entire ship and the people on board invisible.
The only problem is... if someone is invisible on the ship, they may be at risk of "falling off" because they cannot see the structure of the ship...
So after thinking about it, Arthur and others did not enchant the hull so thoroughly. They just stopped the work at hand after ensuring that the ship could have about 80% stealth effect.
"A stealth effect of about 80%... As you can see, this is within our acceptable range."
Yang Hao shrugged as he looked at the illusory deck under his feet. The nun next to him seemed a little scared because she could see the ground directly from a high place. She tightly grasped Yang Hao's arm, causing Fen to roll her eyes continuously and not knowing what to say.
With the help of "incomplete" invisibility magic, the airship presents an invisibility effect of "it cannot be discovered from a distance, and can only be barely seen when you get closer."
In this way, the believers on the ground will not be able to see the existence of the airship that is more than 200 meters high, and the people on the airship will not be restricted by the completely invisible ship for fear of falling off.
In general, after completing the enchantment process of the "invisibility" magic, Yang Hao can safely place the airship on the side of the fire trap, and just wait for the believers to completely step into the fire trap before catching them off guard.
Unless there is a magician in the army of believers who knows the technology of "breaking stealth", no one will notice that there is a huge ship parked in the sky until the airship opens fire.
In addition to the stealth enchantment transformation of the airship, the top priority of this reinforcement of the airship is naturally the improvement of the two "fuel bombs".
"After all, if we let our airship drop bombs from directly above the enemy, we will not only have to move a long distance... but more importantly, we may also be affected by the explosion at an altitude of 200 meters."
Doctor Joseph diligently wiped the sweat off his head while explaining to the three majesties how important the work of Arthur and others was:
"Besides that, it will disrupt our deployment on the flank, causing us to lose firepower for a while, and it will also waste a lot of time...
So after much thought, it should be a good choice to make the fuel-air bomb "throw itself" through "enchantment".
And to put it bluntly, the killing radius of the enchanted cloud bomb at this stage is more than 500 meters. Even if we throw it from a distance and don’t hit the center, it is estimated that we can completely block the retreat route of those believers. ”
Doctor Joseph provided the blueprints and design ideas, and the enchanted fuel-air bombs produced by the production line of the Kingdom of Eden theoretically have a killing radius of more than 500 meters.
Moreover, the working principle of the fuel-air bomb is very simple: throwing, impact, and explosion. It only takes three stages to cause devastating damage to enemies over a large area.
It can be said that the United Nations cannot find a more useful large-scale destructive weapon than the fuel-air bomb at present.
Apart from the fact that the production cost is a bit outrageous for the United Nations, fuel-air bombs are indeed the most useful consumables at present.
The killing area of the fuel-air explosive bomb is so huge that it doesn't even need to be thrown directly at the target location to effectively strike the enemy.
In this case, if it could be thrown far into the target area through magic, it might be better than letting the airship fly directly above the target area and throw it.
To achieve the purpose of "projectile", the easiest way is to enchant the hook of the fuel-air bomb twice.
The first enchantment was a special enchantment called "Thrust" - in the traditional society of the elves, this type of enchantment was generally used on arrows.
It can make the arrow have a faster speed after being launched, and it can also make the arrow have a longer range after being launched.
The second enchantment was called "Precision" - this was also the enchantment that the elves would use on arrows.
The main purpose is to make the arrow more accurate, slightly adjusting the trajectory during flight so that it can accurately hit the enemy's target during a throw of up to two kilometers;
The above two enchantments have been widely used on all firearms and a small part of ammunition in the hands of the elves at this stage. And it just so happens that some of the elf mages who came here to perform the emergency mission know the existence of these two enchantments... With their help, the final enchantment enhancement of the airship is proceeding steadily.
As the work was almost finished, Dr. Joseph began to explain the principle of the fuel-air bomb ejection.
They will first confirm the approximate area where the two fuel-air bombs will hit.
Then just focus on the "Thrust" enchantment to directly launch the fuel-air bomb on the hook, and then watch the fuel-air bomb fly towards the target area as far as possible with the help of the "Precision" enchantment.
Finally? Of course, we just need to wait for them to explode.
"After all, the principle is the same... We must admit that the principle of weapon use is indeed the simpler and more practical the better - it is better for magicians to talk about releasing large-scale destruction magic for an hour or two than for us to just throw two fuel-air bombs."
Dr. Joseph's conclusion made Yang Hao laugh and cry. He replied:
"So when you design weapons in the future, can you make them a little simpler?"
Faced with Yang Hao's proposal, Joseph was stunned for a moment, then shook his head firmly and said that this was a man's romance, so he could only refuse.
I hope this man can still maintain his so-called "manly romance" when he is surrounded and beaten by the logistics department -
With this thought in mind, Yang Hao brought his two wives to the bow of the airship, where they found Naruga and Miss Black Dragonia resting on the illusory transparent deck.
The leader of the Ling tribe had no use this time. She just went to the ground to make a few "barbed wires" made of golems and tough soil, and then returned to the ship to rest early.
Now she was lazily basking in the sun, and the black dragon beside her was looking at this little animal-like girl curiously.
Miss Black Dragon is the top priority in the next battle, so even if she doesn't want to rest, she has to rest well before starting work.
Seeing Yang Hao coming over, Miss Nia started to complain: "I was really scared when the ship became transparent. I almost dragged Miss Naruga away. If someone hadn't told me that this was just the effect of the "invisibility" magic, I would have really run away..."
"Is there no similar magic in Ishugard?" Yang Hao was quite curious. After sitting down at the table in front of Nia with Theresa who was looking at the ground timidly, he found that Finn had been lying on his back at some point.
"I remember that Ishugard seems to be very good at some "support" magic, right? Here, invisibility magic is also a kind of support magic, right?"
"Impossible. We are extremely short of magic power. How can we possibly have the ability to enchant an entire... um? Airship
So Your Majesty Yang Hao, you must not use the invisibility magic as a reward for my efforts this time... After all, we can't use it at all!"
“What a pity.”
"You are definitely regretting that you can't trick us, right?!"
"No, I just feel sorry for the fact that Ishugard has lost a multi-functional magic. How could I possibly have the idea of harming you?"
Looking at the Black Dragon in front of him, who seemed a little frustrated because he had harmed him too many times, Yang Hao just smiled and explained, then began to think about the next arrangements.
After all, the highest level of lying is to make up a lie with the truth - in fact, Yang Hao was indeed making a sincere promise to Heilong.
It is true that he will not harm Isurgard this time, and invisibility magic does have many functions, but he did not say that he will not harm Isurgard in the future
After all, he has already agreed to go on a business trip to Ishgard in a while... It is better to try to squeeze as much money as possible for his country before the trip than to get nothing after the trip, right
So after thinking about it, Yang Hao made a promise to Theresa and Finn in order to gain more benefits for the United Nations in the future:
"If you can get the job done this time, Miss Nia, we are willing to adjust the current selling price of magic storage equipment so that Ishugard can buy more magic at a cheaper cost."
"really?"
"real."
Seeing the black dragon's eyes widen suddenly, Yang Hao silently added in his heart: Anyway, the United Nations will no longer need to worry about magic power in the future. Selling magic power at a cheaper price and making Ishugard more dependent on magic power will definitely be a more profitable option.
On the one hand, it is because the Kingdom of Eden will soon build a "Colossus" and an "artificial magic reactor" on the surface.
On the other hand, only when Ishugard further increases the consumption of magic power can the United Nations' monopoly on magic power make more profits at a lower unit price and higher quantity.
However, Black Dragon obviously did not notice this problem - she seemed to think that the more and cheaper the commodity "magic power" was, the better... But what would happen in reality? Just refer to the dependence of primitive and modern countries on "oil" to know.
In this world, the slower the rate at which Ishgard consumes magic power, the lower their demand for magic power will naturally be.
But on the other hand, the faster Ishugard consumes magic power, the higher their demand for magic power will naturally be.
Just like food, a family with five mouths to feed on a piece of land can probably save some surplus food every year.
But if one day someone rents a second piece of land from this family, and then takes the land back when they have five more mouths to feed, won’t there be famine
Although Yang Hao would not be so despicable... but he was still happy to further tighten the rope around Isgard's neck through these five extra mouths.
And Nia didn't see the problem. It's better to say that Nia didn't realize how much they would rely on the United Kingdom after Isgard became dependent on magic in the future...
Or maybe she had already seen the problem? She just felt that she had the ability to solve the future dependence
