The Bizarre Adventure of the Warhammer Elves

54 Sea Battle
"The ballista is loaded with shotguns, and the whole ship maintains a medium distance to exchange fire. Don't let the dragon boat come up!"

Eighty Reaper Ballistas had all entered the launch pads on both sides. Since most of Azul's warships were sailed warships, all the ballistas were replaced with scattering bolts specially designed for sailing.

The crew excitedly waved their weapons. Most of them were facing Azul's navy for the first time, but there was not much fear in their eyes, but they were all excited!

But Rohan's heart was full of worries. The range of the Eagle Claw Ballista completely crushed the Reaper Ballista, so the Black Ark had to keep enough firefighting distance to move up.

But the forty frigates full of Lothern sea guards are not a joke. If they are allowed to board the deck, then Rohan will have to risk crossing the world.

Looking at the Azul fleet approaching in the mist, Rohan could only pray that the wind direction today would be favorable to him.

On the dragon boat, Yana had the same headache as Lohan. As a princess of the Lothern Kingdom, her family asked her to lead the fleet this time just to make her resume look better.

However, looking at the black ark, which was as big as two dragon boats, she couldn't believe it!
Yana sighed. She was obviously just a logistics worker. It was her responsibility to bring people and then take them away, instead of fighting with this large black ark like a hill!

but……

Looking at the impatient eyes of the silver-helmed nobles and the Lothern navy on board, Yana had no choice but to order:

"Prepare to attack! But remember not to chase the enemy too far, our goal is to meet Charis' [White Lion] army!"

In this way, a sea battle in which the commanders of both sides were unwilling to participate in the battle, but the morale of the crew was high, just started in a daze!

Itain's navy took the lead in launching the attack. Relying on the range advantage, the magic arrows of the Eagle Claw Ballista flew towards the huge body of the Black Ark!

"Pay attention to dodge! Go over at full speed!"

Luo Han wanted to help resist, but the mana he had consumed to catch the fire dragon hadn't recovered yet, so he could only hope that the boys would be more alert.

Fortunately, due to the long distance, the Durucci fighters had enough reaction time to evade, so there were not too many casualties.

Moreover, Azul's frigates seemed to want to surround the Black Ark, so they all dispersed and charged towards the Black Ark at the fastest speed.

And this move just happened to bring these thin-skinned frigates into the range of the Black Ark!
Yana made the same mistake as Alasta. She also thought that Rohan's Black Ark was equipped with a magic turret, so she wanted to launch a team-hopping operation as soon as possible to prevent the long-range advantage of the magic turret from being used.

You thought it was a bomber formation attacking the Yamato, but it was actually a wonderful cruiser equipped with hundreds of anti-aircraft guns, rubbing the formation of aircraft that had not yet flown overhead on the ground!
Of course, Yana can't be blamed for this. After all, Luohan's behavior is like installing a bunch of secondary guns on a battleship. You can't say it's useless, you can only say that this behavior itself is weird.

Luo Han originally thought that the opponent would take advantage of the long-range ballista to fly his kite, but he didn't expect that the opponent would take the initiative to send it to his door for him to fight.

"In that case... push the catapults onto the deck!"

Based on the idea of ​​not fighting for nothing, Luohan took out the repeating ballista that had been pushed into the cabin again, and even took the gunner's position himself, thinking about his addiction.

The Lothern Seaguards on the Asur frigate.Not knowing what was waiting for them, they put away their shields and took out their longbows, ready to shoot.

Soon, however, they will discover how much they need the shield on their back:

"Shoot the arrows! Hit them hard!"

Following Rohan's order, 80 Reaper ballistas and 4 repeating ballistas began to unleash their firepower, and the rain of arrows shot at the unsuspecting high elves!
Relying on the height advantage, these scattered crossbow bolts flew like raindrops to the Azul frigate a thousand kilometers away, stringing the unsuspecting elves on the deck into candied gourds!

bang bang bang-

Lohan licked his lips, sat on the gun position of the repeating ballista and kept pulling the trigger. At this moment, he felt like he was playing [landing on the beach].

The terrible thing about long-range weapons is that he makes the user unable to empathize with those who are attacked.

Corresponding to Rohan who was playing [Beach Landing], there was the Asur frigate who had no backhand power and could only be beaten!
The only eagle claw ballista they could use was placed on the bow of the ship, and most of them were damaged in the first round of shelling. The few usable ones could not pose a threat to the Black Ark.

Yana stared dumbfounded at the tragic situation on the frigate not far away. Countless limbs and arms were hung on the wall, and the survivors could only fall on the deck and howl in pain.

However, this is not over yet. As the loading ended, the second round of shelling from the Black Ark once again swept across the deck of the frigate, and Yana couldn't help shouting to the chess player:
"Keep a distance and let them evacuate, we..."

"Go at full speed! Crash towards the Black Ark!"

The captain of the dragon boat directly interrupted Yana's order. Looking at the somewhat bewildered crew, he directly took over Yana's command and said:

"Get your shields and ballistas ready, and aim the horn at the Black Ark!"

"What are you doing? This dragon boat belongs to Lothern, you can't..."

"Of course I know what I'm doing! That Black Ark doesn't have a magic turret, so we can no longer use traditional tactics to deal with it, let the frigate cover the dragon boat, and then attack!"

As a captain who has been fighting vampire pirates all year round, his combat experience is not comparable to that of a little princess, so he immediately saw the weakness of the Black Ark:

No long-range firepower at all, and no heavy weapons capable of one-hit kills!

Seeing that the dragon boat was sailing towards the Black Ark, the old crew looked at the bewildered chess player again and said:
"Issue an order to all frigates: Do your best to attract the firepower of the Black Ark, and if necessary, directly crash into the Black Ark!"

Yana, who was a little confused by the old captain's yelling, hurriedly stopped after hearing the old captain's order:
"You're crazy, it's killing them!"

"Shut up! You are a noble lady with a mind full of ox! We are sailors from Lothern, heroic warriors of Marselan, the god of the sea, and none of us are cowards who fear death!"

(Marselan, the god of the ocean, one of the few reliable gods among the elven gods, often shelters his followers of the Asur navy. In ET, he was killed by Slaanesh in order to protect the last elven people.

However, compared to Lilith, who was always causing troubles after accomplishing nothing, Marselan successfully protected this group of elves, and after his death, his power has been protecting the surviving elves. This group of elves is the sea in the AOS era. Elf, a tearful god)
