Orc Tyrant

When the wizards left the bridge, Admiral Niels Yule stood up abruptly.

After the attack, the First Fleet has been refurbishing, replenishing supplies, rotating crews, and repairing the warships, and it lasted about three months of recuperation.

However, the rest time is over. Just like the proverb of the hunters, "The wolf that licks the wound will retaliate back thousands of times." He and his warship will show the green-skinned beasts the anger of a human. , The anger of a husband, and the anger of a father.

He hasn’t seen his wife for more than two months, not only because of his busy schedule, but actually it’s more of an excuse. He can’t and doesn’t dare to face his wife again-that face that looks like melting wax. .

Twenty years ago, she was a well-known local beauty and the brightest flower in the dance, but now she can no longer see any reflective objects, and even the plates in the house have been replaced with old wooden products.

And all of this is due to the flames of war unprovoked by those wild beasts.

If war is their instinct, then Niels Yule believes that he will be entangled with these beasts forever in the second half of his life, until they are completely destroyed, before he will even consider retirement.

"Sir, the fleet is in place."

His adjutant Major General Iples walked into the command cabin, his hair was simply tied up, and his shoulders stood unnaturally due to the previous trauma.

"well."

Niels nodded and replied:

"Turn on the searchlight."

The ring-shaped searchlights turned on one by one, illuminating the surroundings of the battleship.

The bright and strong lights of Sal Harbor are also obvious at the assembly point. The attached monitoring spire is shrouded in a large group of dim and dim lights, and gradually disappears into the sound of battleships and waves behind the palace.

The moon in the distance became a bright spot, dimmed by the gradually condensing sea fog.

The indicator light on the console screen flashed, showing the location of other ships in the fleet.

This time the first fleet is all dispatched. The main force is the four new battleships-Nightfall, Fanatic, Trident and Eternal Fury, as well as four old battleships, and the flagship is the eternal current carrying Nils The Fury, when Oak attacked the port, it happened to be routinely maintained in the dry dock, but escaped the catastrophe.

Other cruisers, destroyers, and minelayers surround the capital ship in a slanted diamond formation.

At the same time, there is also a special warship in the fleet, which is the Sky Eye from the Citizen Temple, not far from the flagship.

Even at this distance, this battleship is still impressive, it looks like a smooth short spear painted in red and gold, and is close to a normal cruiser in length, but it is not a battleship.

According to the Citizen’s Temple, Skyeye is an “information ship” equipped with a large number of high-precision sensors and scanning equipment, which can provide accurate positioning and enemy identification services for the entire fleet. If these advanced equipment can be popularized Every battleship is naturally better, but due to the loss of technology, many equipment cannot even be manufactured by the Citizen Temple itself.

In order to achieve synergy with Skyeye, Eternal Fury was modified a month ago, mainly by adding data receiving equipment and a series of simple information processors. The result is a dense row of screens and projections in the command cabin. equipment.

When the entire fleet began to move out of the port in an orderly manner, Niels flicked the control button on the armrest of his command seat to turn on the bridge's communicator.

"The loose **** mode ensures that the Sky Eye will be set in the middle section of the No. 1 route under our protection, with three-quarter power."

"Three-quarters power!"

The crew's Captain Kant yelled and issued the received instructions to the people around him.

"Mr. Oak, please point us out the way."

Then, Niels started talking with the captain of the Skyeye, asking for their assistance.

"As you said, Admiral."

A deep response came from the communicator.

Voyage No. 1 is the fastest route from the port of Sal to the southwest of Port Van Geli. It will take them to their destination conveniently and quickly, and if everything goes well, it will allow the fleet to get to the Ouke’s discovery, regardless of the other party’s reconnaissance. What is real is still imaginary.

However, there is a very dangerous place on this route, which is an area called the Yongming Islands. It is a chain of islands running north-south. The dense fog is shrouded all year round and the underwater reefs are everywhere. It is precisely because of this that this convenient Few people use the route except smugglers.

However, with the help of the advanced equipment of the Sky Eye, they no longer need to take detours, because after prior investigation, there is a safe water corridor between the island chains of the Yongming Islands. The fleet only needs to pass through there, and then it will be able to reach Fan in two days. Gili Port.

Soon, the oars of the Eternal Fury were activated, discarding the thoughts in the admiral's mind and pulling him back into reality.

He could feel the vibration through the inlaid floor of the bridge. On the display, the fleet formed a formation, followed by the Sky Eye.

Seeing that such a powerful person is still gone, he believes that no matter what is waiting for Fan Jili, they will be defeated by reason.

"Admiral, I must remind you that we caught an energy trail last week. Although it is faint, it is still obvious."

Suddenly, the voice of Skyeye’s captain Oak came from the communicator. Niels was a little tired of it. He had said it three times, but each time he couldn’t explain what the so-called energy trail was. He could only Talking about a lot of scientific terms that I don't understand at all.

He also sent a destroyer to inspect the place where the unknown energy was found, but he found nothing. There was only an empty sea, and there were no major routes passing through that area.

They did not find any traces of ships, relying on only a so-called "weak energy trail", and even sent divers down to the sea to search. .

Unlike wars on land, where evidence of battles can be clearly seen, conflicts at sea are not so easy to identify.

But drifting wreckage, sunken ruins, and even the number of fish schools can be the final proof of a battle.

The key is that they did not find any direct evidence after all to prove that there is something they can't see, and this obviously cannot be used as a basis for changing the plan, especially such an important, confidential military plan.

"Assure by my personality, the energy output must have been extremely huge."

Oak continued speaking with rare excitement.

"No matter what leaves this trace, it is a behemoth, Admiral."

"Is it possible to describe its appearance?"

Niels asked rhetorically, turning her command seat to watch the deputy captain standing beside him silently. He tried his best to make his tone not sound so harsh. After all, the ship's navigation still relied on the Sky Eye and the sensor equipment on it.

Oak's answer is succinct.

"I will try, Admiral."

"Go ahead."

Niels also replied briefly to the other party, his attitude was very peaceful, but his inner card was very unhappy with this kind of arrogant behavior in his opinion. Those who retained ancient technology often regarded others as fools. , Put yourself in the position of a prophet.

"But now we have to complete the task and turn on the radar array at full power, Mr. Oak, lead us forward."

"Roger that."
