"Don't worry about them," Fang Yu was pushing the door out of the captain's room, seeing this scene calmly and speaking. He also used his spiritual transmission to say to his Dragon Soul Miss, "Hang the sails and move forward at full speed."
"Received." Miss Tata replied immediately.
All the sails rose, and even the horizontal winged sails with wings on both sides of the ship were spread out one by one. The Qihai Traveler was originally a light sailboat, but the speed suddenly became faster.
The distance between the two sides was at least five miles away, so at the beginning the other party had not noticed the speed of the Qihai Traveler. However, when the lights on the Qihai Traveler suddenly became much closer, the people from the Death Arrival Guild realized that something was wrong after calculating the speed.
Not only did the other party slow down, but instead accelerated.
The sailor on the mast of the fast spinning boat was instructed by the captain and quickly called the Qihai Traveler with a flashing light signal:
"You must stop immediately, or my boat will open fire!"
Silvede read the signal and looked back at his captain.
Fang Zhu seemed to have never heard of it.
"How far is this place to enter Oshu?" he asked.
"There is a canyon in front of you, and after you pass it, it will be within the empire." The shipmaster's officer imagined it and replied.
Fang Zhu nodded.
Three minutes later, the alarm sounded on the fast spinning boat.
The summoners were returning from the Derevan and two vans on a sampan, back to their own ship, and then the spinning boat raised its sail in the shortest time and slowly left the three-masted sailboat of the Derevan.
The sailors on the Degers squad were huddling on the side of the ship.
They watched this scene as if they were busy. At this time, the rapid spinning boat of the Death Arrival Guild had opened the gun door, revealing the black muzzle - although it was only a speedboat at best, and was usually only responsible for doing odd jobs in the Imperial Navy array, and was not allowed to wait.
However, this speedboat is still filled with four small-caliber magic cannons, as well as a rotating crossbow on the bow, which is considered to be armed to the teeth.
Small boats are also the favorite thing for the candidates to do, because generally speaking, there are few boats in the guild, but life is not worth the money. They like to emphasize firepower and make a big fortune with small profits.
The Qihai Traveler was closer at this time, and people could already see its outline - a brisk sailboat, more than one lap bigger than the spinning boat of the Death Arrival Guild. Once this ship runs at full speed, ordinary sailboats cannot catch up.
That's the adventurer's favorite.
At this time, except for the newbies who are still very experienced, most of the old fried dough sticks on the Dere team were seen. The sailboat that came up behind not only did not slow down the sail, but also further accelerated.
The lights on the boat were almost getting closer in a blink of an eye.
There is a good show to watch.
People thought.
"A brisk sailing boat doesn't look like an imperial style," said the first mate on the Degers team, looking at that direction. "It seems that the other party is planning to break through. Perhaps the person the caller is looking for is on that boat?"
The old captain also looked over there and nodded.
Then he turned around and asked, "Do you think there can be a win over there?"
"I hope there will be a win over there. These guys rely on the relationship between the Haierfa family and stop us to check," replied the first mate. "But there seems to be no military equipment on that boat. If you want to get rid of the other party by speed, you must seize the upper hand. It depends on the ability of the captain and sailor on the boat..."
Before he finished speaking, the Death Arrival Guild finally couldn't bear it after several warnings failed and chose to fire.
The fire flashed, and the loud bangs of the two magic cannons in front and behind were almost indefinitely. The flames sprayed from the muzzle formed a golden-red ray - but that was just a visual residue in the darkness. After about ten seconds, two balls of fire exploded in the horizon.
Seeing this, the first mate sniffed slightly and showed great disdain for this. As expected, the level of these people was as bad as ever. Not only did they miss the shots, but the timing of the shots was also not right.
"They fired too early," he commented mercilessly. "The other party has not entered the range at all, and they will have to recharge and fill it again, missing the best time to fire. Now the opponent is no more than three airs away from them. If I were to command, I could shoot at least twelve rounds. It would be great that they could shoot eight rounds like this."
Fang Zhu stood on the deck, and his dark eyes reflected the flames that exploded from afar, and he thought so in his heart.
The cooling and preheating time of the magic cannon is quite long, especially for small magic cannons without cooling devices. It can reach one round of shooting in two or three minutes, which is considered to have excellent performance.
But the large magic cannon was too bulky. They had removed one from the pirate shipwreck before, and after a while of trial, they removed it again, seriously affecting the balance between the head and tail of the Qihai Traveler.
Not as useful as a crossbow.
"Can you tell which type of cannon the other party is using?" Luo Hao held up his shield, looking eager to try.
"The Empire's thirty-year stance was ordered to be produced when Stuart IV was alive," Fang Yu replied casually, "a super-small-caliber magic cannon was originally used as a sub-weapon on the Oshuman fourth-class main ship. Later, the selected person was brought onto the speedboat, with a speed of fire of about three minutes."
"I probably think so too."
"Are you still interested in this?" Fang Yu was a little surprised.
"Hey, before I became a military recruiter, I was actually quite interested in craftsmen and magical techniques," Luo Hao replied, "especially in the military preparations of sailboats."
The two chatted in a mess, while counting the time silently - a little later than they expected, and about three and a half minutes later, the other party opened fire in the second round.
The magic barrage exploded on the port side of the Qihai Traveler, and it was far away. Even the wind element shield of the Qihai Traveler could not be activated.
Except for Tianlan who was so scared that he shivered, the others didn't even blink their eyes. Luo Hao was even talking to Fang Yu: "It seems that the opponent's skills are very bad. It would be nice for the opponent to shoot three rounds before the crossbow entered the range. Next, it's our turn to fight back."
After experiencing a fleet battle of such a large scale over the northern border, it is difficult for these little winds and waves to cause any turmoil in everyone's hearts.
Fang Yu nodded only.
The speed of the Qihai Traveler's sail is quite impressive. Now both sides are approaching rapidly. Although the other party's spinnaker is also a type of fast sailing, it takes considerable time to fully start from a static state.
It is almost difficult for the other party to compete with the Qihai Traveler. It is expected that the Qihai Traveler will catch up with the other party soon.
Next, the people who died in the Guild opened fire two rounds, but they all fell one by one. The night was not very defensive, but they still rolled the sailboat, and there would be great uncertainty about the landing point of the shell without modern computers.
However, the battle between the Aitalia sailboats is much more cruel than the sailing era on Earth. After all, there are magic cannons, ammunition that can set the detonation time, magicians, and flexible and changeable components.
In the third round of shooting, the shock wave generated by the explosion finally entered the damage range of Qihai Traveler, but before the air wave and debris arrived, a blue halo suddenly lit up on the outside of the sailboat.
The halo was about spherical, and after flashing a few times, it offset the explosion's shock wave completely.
"Elemental Shield, how is this possible?!"
On the spinnaker, the people who came to the guild could not help but be surprised.
The first mates on the hot class in Liande were all showing surprises.
The wind element shield is almost the standard for large ships. Generally, it is only available on main ships of a certain level or above. Even the three-masted merchant ship of the Derebank, which is more than 300 tons, does not have such a device installed.
On the one hand, it is extremely expensive, and on the other hand, it requires the core magic furnace on the ship to provide matching magic output power. This level of magic furnace is difficult to install on the boat.
But the birth of the Qihai Traveler is a miracle as one of the most advanced sailboats of this era, Luo Zhen, Sir Mawei, and many generations of Kaolin-Ishurien craftsmen.
Under the blue halo, the Qihai Traveler's tall and graceful ship shape was breaking out of the fire. His figure was even shocked for a moment that the people of the Death Arrival Guild on the spinnaker forgot to fill it up.
"Mr. Knight."
At this time, Miss Tata's voice rang on the Qihai Traveler: "It's entered the range."
Fang Yu turned around and Luo Hao was the first to run to the crossbow cannon position. The crossbow cannon had already been filled. At this moment, the other party was turning the roulette hard to make the crossbow turn, and shouted: "Miss Tata, help me correct the shooting of the world!"
The crossbow and the gear below rotated themselves.
Luo Hao raised his head, panting and holding his hand on the handle, staring at the crossbow arrow with a cold light pointing in the direction of the spinnaker, then pulled it down hard, shouting:
"The first round of crossbow cannon shooting, launch!"
