"The ship on the opposite side, we are the Royal Third Fleet of the Candela Empire. We now order you to stop immediately for inspection. If you disobey, you will be responsible for the consequences!"
Leslie frowned a little tighter.
It's not because the person who is calling is rude, but because the other person is almost five hundred meters away from here, but the voice of the call seems to be ringing in his ears, extremely clear and bright.
This effect can be achieved obviously because there is a magician on the opposite ship who has deployed amplification magic.
Unless they, like themselves, are equipped with magic amplifiers developed by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce based on amplification magic.
Taking the loudspeaker from the crewman beside him, Leslie cleared his throat, tested the effect of the loudspeaker, and then said loudly: "The fleet on the opposite side, you have entered our boundary, please Stop moving forward immediately, otherwise you may suffer a counterattack from us, hereby warn you.”
Standing on the deck of the first huge wooden sea ship opposite, Kandorei, the deputy commander of the Royal Third Fleet of the Candela Empire, was slightly startled, and then became furious.
These guys across the street are so ungrateful!
He led the entire First Squadron of the Royal Third Fleet to dispatch, representing the Candela Empire. However, these guys on the opposite side actually dared to be so rude, and even dared to say anything... to fight back
He dares!
Candorei snorted coldly and raised his eyebrows at the adjutant next to him who was responsible for shouting.
The adjutant understood, nodded, continued to stand in the amplification magic circle maintained by the magician, and shouted to the opposite side in an emphasis: "Attention people on the opposite side, this is our last warning to you, stop immediately and get checked. If If you dare to disobey, we will attack immediately!”
Leslie couldn't help but shook his head, thinking that these guys who called themselves the Royal Third Fleet of the Candela Empire simply didn't intend to reason with him.
But judging from the appearance of them running over with more than a hundred ships, they were in a hurry. Obviously he wasn't trying to reason.
Of course, if you think about it carefully.
The Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire is responsible for the waters of the Candela Empire, and now a mysterious fleet like the New Flying Chamber of Commerce Escort Fleet has suddenly appeared on its own territory. Even if they all went towards the pirates in this sea area, they defeated countless pirate groups. But in the eyes of the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire, this was undoubtedly a slap in their face.
No matter how many islands there are in this sea area, it is still the business of the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire, and it is no one else's turn to take care of it.
It would be easier to say that this mysterious fleet is a newly emerged pirate group. The royal fleet does not need any warning at all and can just attack directly.
However, judging from the news that came back, this mysterious fleet only launched attacks specifically against pirates after it appeared in this area. But it has never disturbed normal fishing boats and merchant ships. It seems that it came specifically to fight against pirates.
Moreover, information obtained from other channels shows that this mysterious fleet seems to have some connection with a certain chamber of commerce in a small country on the border of the mainland.
Although the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire does not need to take this small country and small chamber of commerce seriously, as one of the two major empires in the mainland, reputation is still important.
Therefore, after confirming the whereabouts of this mysterious fleet, the Third Fleet of the Royal Fleet, which was mainly responsible for this area, decided to make contact through formal channels first.
As for bringing the entire Fourth Squadron of the Third Fleet in one go, they were completely worried about what might happen.
Information collected from various sources shows that the combat effectiveness of this mysterious fleet is extremely powerful, and none of the pirates in this area can withstand their attack.
Candore didn't believe this at first and regarded it as an unreliable rumor. It seems that the pirates deliberately exaggerated the enemy's strength because of their own failures.
But now I see with my own eyes that the twenty-odd ships floating on the sea not far away are much larger than the Thunder-class royal warship under my feet, and they are reflecting metallic light from all over their bodies. The huge sea ship that seemed to be made entirely of metal was really surprised.
Such a ship made entirely of metal was beyond his previous understanding.
In his opinion, no matter what kind of metal it is, the weight is extremely terrible, and the weight used for such a large ship is even more ridiculous. However, it is incredible that they can float stably on the sea now!
As for how such a ship sails on the sea, it is even said to sail very fast. Candorei was completely confused about what was going on.
But this does not affect Candorei's confidence.
This time he led the entire Fourth Squadron of the Third Fleet of the Royal Fleet to dispatch, with as many as thirty-eight Thunder-class super giant sea-going ships under his command. One hundred and thirty-seven Heavy Rain-class medium-sized combat ships command even more than 10,000 soldiers.
Not to mention that there are only about twenty ships on the opposite side. Even if it were doubled, he would still have absolute confidence to take down the opponent easily.
However…
In Leslie's view, the more than one hundred ships that made Candorei so confident were not much different from a pile of rotten wood.
In the past two months, he has easily defeated countless pirates and has sufficient experience in maritime combat.
Although the ships owned by those pirates cannot be compared with the regular maritime fleet of the Candela Empire in front of them, and their quality and combat effectiveness are obviously much different, but after many battles, Leslie has understood that the new fleet he is leading now The Chamber of Commerce escort fleet adopts a completely new combat mode.
Compared with the traditional naval battle mode of Sainz Continent, which still uses rockets to shoot at each other and finally resorts to boarding battles, the combat mode of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce escort fleet is not known to be much higher.
Unless the ships on the opposite side are also equipped with the same military magic machinery such as magic cannons, Leslie will not think that the other side will pose any threat to him.
Thinking of this, Leslie felt reassured, thought for a moment, smiled, and didn't take the other party's warning to heart at all, but picked up the magic loudspeaker in his hand.
"Hello, Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire. Please allow us to identify ourselves. We are the escort fleet under the New Flying Chamber of Commerce Guards of the Principality of Standing. We are just passing through this sea area now. We do not have any intention of trying to attack the Candela Empire. Due to normal navigation There are strict regulations at that time, so please forgive me. We cannot let you board our ships for searches at will."
Leslie's words were much softer than what he said just now, and he made it clear that he did not want to get into trouble with the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire.
But the words fell on Kandorei's ears. But it has another meaning.
"Hmph! Are you still unwilling to let us search? Dole, warn them one last time. If they still don't listen, don't be polite!"
The adjutant in charge of delivering the message, Dole, nodded and was about to continue speaking when he suddenly discovered that the more than 20 steel monster-like ships on the opposite side were shaken and began to slowly move backwards.
Candorei's face immediately darkened.
"You actually want to escape? What a wishful thinking! Pass my order. Launch an attack immediately!"
Adjutant Dole's face changed slightly, thinking that the opponent had never shown any hostility, and had already revealed his identity as a subordinate escort of a regular chamber of commerce. If he launched an attack rashly like this, word would spread and it would be harmful to Candela. The reputation of the Imperial Royal Fleet may have some impact.
Just when he was about to advise Candorei, he found that the expression on his deputy commander's face suddenly froze, as if he had seen a ghost.
Following his gaze, Adjutant Dole saw a scene that shocked him extremely.
At first. The twenty or so ships on the opposite side were only slowly retreating, but in the few seconds he had just turned around, he looked back. However, they found that the more than twenty ships did not need to turn around at all, but their speed suddenly increased extremely fast.
More than 20 extremely huge ships raised more than 20 huge waves on the calm sea. In just a few breaths, they had already retreated hundreds of meters away.
Adjutant Dole stared dumbfoundedly at the more than 20 ships that were quickly moving away on the sea like ghosts. He thought that although the deputy commander said that he would launch an attack, the opponent was now more than a mile away from the nearest ship. Kilometers are simply beyond the attack range of all rockets, so how should we launch an attack
And looking at the opponent's terrifying speed, I'm afraid it's even with a tailwind. There is no way they can catch up.
Candorei looked at the more than 20 iron ships in the distance that raised huge waves with the same shock, and was stunned for a while. Only then did he react and shouted angrily: "Why are you still standing there! Chase me! We must not let them run away like this!"
Adjutant Dole smiled bitterly in his heart. But he still conveyed the deputy commander's orders honestly.
It is not that easy for more than a hundred ships to completely convey the order.
Finally, when all the ships of the Fourth Squadron of the Third Fleet of the Candela Empire Royal Fleet received the order and finally started to move slowly, Adjutant Dole suddenly discovered that dozens of bright lights suddenly lit up on the sea ahead. point.
At first, these light spots were as subtle as fireflies in the night sky, but in an instant they were close to here and turned into clusters of firelight flying on the sea.
Some rumors about this mysterious fleet flashed through Adjutant Dole's mind, and he was shocked. Just when he was about to shout, he saw the ball of fire crossing a parabola in the air, and fell on him and the Deputy Commander together. The ship we were on was about two hundred meters away on the sea.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom -"
Countless huge deafening explosions suddenly sounded one after another, and dozens of water droplets burst into the sky in an instant on the sea that was only slightly turbulent due to the rapid escape of the opponent's ship.
These water droplets rushed up to a height of nearly 20 meters above the sea surface, as if dozens of huge fountains suddenly appeared on the bottom of the sea.
Along with the explosion, sea waves several meters high quickly spread around, and reached here a moment later, shaking the entire hull of the Thunder-class super giant combat ship at the feet of Adjutant Dole. They all shook violently.
The smaller Burmese-class medium-sized combat ships next to it were violently bumped by the waves, and some of them were even in danger of capsizing.
Adjutant Dole turned to look at Candorei with lingering fear, only to see the Deputy Commander's face so gloomy that it seemed as if water was dripping from his eyes, and his eyes shot out endless anger that did not need to be clearly visible.
These attacks were obviously sent by that fleet and were an obvious warning to them.
The Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire has been established for so many years and is invincible in all nearby seas. When did it suffer such humiliation
However, Candorei knew very well that the other party was obviously showing mercy. Otherwise, if such a violent attack fell directly on their fleet, or even directly on their ships, the consequences could be imagined.
After being silent for a while, Candorei punched the ship's pole viciously and squeezed out a few words through his teeth.
"Okay, Xinfei Chamber of Commerce escort fleet, I remember it!" q
