Chapter 467: Power Struggle

Dongli War Zone.

Two kilometers below the sea.

"Buzz!"

Accompanied by a vibration.

Hundreds of underwater submersibles swiftly moved forward, leaving behind a large number of bubbles, which looked quite eye-catching.

"Gurgle~ Gurgle~"

Carefully observing.

Seventy percent of the submersibles were small in size, just over ten meters long.

They were the Sea Eagles.

The remaining submersibles were several times larger than the Sea Eagles, with a length of nearly twenty-five meters.

They were the new underwater vehicles designed by Cheng Han, the Fish Eagles.

The Sea Eagles were the first generation submersibles, capable of carrying only two crew members, one driver and one weapons operator.

In comparison.

The Fish Eagles could carry up to six crew members, with two serving as pilot and co-pilot, and the rest as weapons operators.

Several Xuan Masters from the foreign war zone were riding in one of the Fish Eagles, eagerly enjoying the view of the deep sea in the otherworldly ocean.

Zhongsun Wen and another Xuan Master were piloting the Fish Eagle themselves.

As a powerful Xuan Master, Zhongsun Wen had an astonishing learning ability. After only a short while, the two of them had completely mastered the piloting skills of the Fish Eagle.

Zhongsun Wen gazed at a group of startled fish swimming by and couldn't help but sigh, "Since coming to the Youmiao Realm, this is the first time I've reached such a deep location."

The co-pilot Xuan Master smiled and said, "I have practiced a water-based Xuan Seal and have been to even deeper places, but it constantly consumes Xuan power. Compared to that, riding the Fish Eagle is much more convenient."

A burly Xuan Master sitting in the back seat interjected, "When I first entered this realm, I participated in the extermination of underwater sea monsters multiple times.

"The battles required wearing specially made diving equipment and swimming around beneath the Lian Island. Each battle was quite exhausting."

The burly Xuan Master said with emotion, "If we had the Sea Eagles and Fish Eagles back then, we wouldn't have fought so hard."

"Clap!"

He slapped the seat heavily, looking extremely impressed, "The things produced by the Dongli War Zone are indeed excellent!"

Several Xuan Masters from the foreign war zone were more concerned about the combat capabilities of the new underwater vehicles.

"The Fish Eagle is much larger than the Sea Eagle, with a larger interior space and more weapons."

"I specifically checked the weapon launch bay just now, and there are a total of thirty-two medium-sized Xuan weapons, which is comparable to a Universal Truth boat."

"The four operators in the back seat can simultaneously launch eight guided Xuan weapons, with a maximum range of fifteen kilometers. The firepower is really powerful."

"As long as any war zone has a thousand Fish Eagles, there will be no sea monsters daring to appear within a two-hundred-kilometer range underwater!"

From this conversation, it can be heard that the short experience of riding the Fish Eagle has completely won over these Xuan Masters from the foreign war zone.

Zhongsun Wen smiled and said, "When we return to the base later, I will immediately write a report to the Nanzhe War Zone and suggest that the Central Court find a way to obtain a batch of Fish Eagles."

The other Xuan Masters also realized this.

"We really need to write the report quickly!"

"The production capacity of the Fish Eagles is limited now. If our war zone is slow to act, we might not even get a taste."

After a few seconds.

"Buzz!"

The communication array in the cockpit suddenly vibrated.

A hoarse voice came out, "Attention all, prepare to turn right, the 'Number Six Ocean Current Belt' is twenty kilometers away."

Following Cheng Han's orders.

The Dongli War Zone had identified every deep-sea current path within a hundred-kilometer radius that flowed through the war zone.

Each current path was assigned a number and a large number of Sea Eagles and Fish Eagles were dispatched to closely monitor them.

This Fish Eagle formation's target was the Number Six Ocean Current Belt.

Soon.

The Fish Eagle formation in front changed direction and steered towards the right front.

Zhongsun Wen immediately turned the steering wheel and maneuvered the Fish Eagle in the new direction.

He felt the change in the hull and couldn't help but praise again, "The Fish Eagle is bigger than the Sea Eagle, but it's even more agile to control. It's truly rare!"

The co-pilot Xuan Master seemed to know more information and said, "I heard that the Sea Eagle was designed by the genius Cheng in the Virtual Wind Realm, so its structure is somewhat outdated.

"Later, he led the War Eagle Legion to descend into the Youmiao Realm and personally experienced the environment here, which led to the design of the Fish Eagle.

"In other words, the Fish Eagle is the true underwater vehicle designed specifically for the Youmiao Realm, so its maneuverability is naturally better."

The term "genius Cheng" in this sentence was the title these Xuan Masters from the foreign war zone used to refer to Vice General Cheng.

And the word "genius" was deliberately preceded by the word "great," which carried a profound meaning.

Zhongsun Wen suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."

The burly Xuan Master sitting in the back seat spoke with a hint of astonishment in his tone, "The Blaze Eagle, Fish Eagle, and various new Xuan weapons are all quite complex weapons.

"I remember that Cheng Datian only went back for a few months, how did he create so many amazing things?"

Another mysterious master replied, "He is a genius, just because ordinary people can't do it doesn't mean Vice General Cheng can't. Otherwise, why would the God General value him so much?"

The burly mysterious master nodded, "That's true!"

It's not difficult to see.

This group of mysterious masters already has some signs of becoming brainwashed fans.

Not long after.

There was another voice coming from the communication array.

"The fleet is about to approach the sixth ocean current, begin the patrol mission now."

"Understood!"

"The ocean current is a fast channel in the deep sea, sea monsters may enter at any time. All operators, be prepared for battle and launch the mysterious weapons immediately upon detecting the enemy."

"Understood!"

The several mysterious masters in the back also obediently put on their helmets to control the mysterious weapons, preparing for battle.

These people play the role of not only "observers" to observe the new weapons, but also "testers" to personally operate the new equipment.

This is very necessary.

Although the Youmiao Realm is a vast and boundless water world, it seems that there is water everywhere.

But different regions have slight differences in the environment.

Therefore, each combat zone needs to determine which new equipment is more suitable based on the environment of that combat zone.

These foreign combat zone mysterious masters are like the "eyes" of each combat zone.

Thirty seconds later.

Zhongsun Wen squinted his eyes and looked, "We've reached the sixth ocean current."

Looking through the cabin glass.

A few hundred meters ahead, a large group of small jellyfish could be seen, about the size of an adult's palm, floating quickly towards the distance.

Although the location of the ocean current cannot be discerned with the naked eye, the creatures floating in the water clearly move much faster than in other areas.

This is the sign of an ocean current.

Zhongsun Wen suddenly mentioned a piece of gossip, "I heard that there was a debate at the central courtyard meeting in the Dongli combat zone yesterday."

The so-called "central courtyard meeting" is a war situation discussion meeting attended only by the core high-level officials of one combat zone.

The people qualified to participate usually include the highest commander, several vice commanders, and the chief commanders of each legion.

Zhongsun Wen continued, "Two vice commanders believe that there are more than sixty Black Scale Tribe tribes appearing around the Dongli combat zone now."

"They believe that we should send the Sea Eagles and Fish Eagles to defend the perimeter of the combat zone and prevent the Black Scale Sea Monsters from infiltrating quietly."

"But Vice General Cheng vetoed this suggestion and insisted on having the Sea Eagles and Fish Eagles patrol the ocean current."

The mysterious master in the co-pilot position nodded lightly, "The vice commander's suggestion is not without reason."

He gave a reason, "Even with a conservative estimate, a tribe of fifty Black Scale Sea Monsters would have a total of more than three thousand. We can't take it lightly."

These words immediately opened the floodgates.

"The Black Scale Tribe is a powerful sea tribe. The enemy situation is not yet clear. It is not wise to send the Sea Eagles and Fish Eagles to attack rashly. I agree with Vice General Cheng's decision."

"The Sea Eagles and Fish Eagles in the Dongli combat zone add up to more than twelve thousand ships. We can mobilize a part of them for the attack, even if there are some losses, it can be accepted!"

"I have a feeling that the two vice commanders' goals are probably not just the Sea Eagle Legion."

"I think so too. Vice General Cheng is in charge of too many legions, it's inevitable that some people will have ulterior motives. Even if they can't get a share, there will be no loss, but if they succeed, they will gain a lot!"

"Ah! Every combat zone is plagued by these power struggles! Several vice commanders in our Yuanlai combat zone are also engaged in various open and secret fights."

"It's inevitable. Who doesn't want to gain more credit?"

"Yes! Last time, when Cheng Datian assisted the God General in killing the Sea King, the God General bestowed him with a Wondrous Spirit Rattan Twig. If it were me, I would be tempted too!"

"These days, Cheng Datian has been staying behind closed doors, most likely trying to integrate the Wondrous Spirit Rattan Twig. Once he completes this, his strength will probably not be far from the level of a mysterious master."

Zhongsun Wen clicked his tongue a few times, with a look of envy, "At this rate, Cheng Datian will be promoted from a high-level martial artist to a mysterious master within a year."

"Back then, I practiced for more than sixty years before breaking through the limit of a high-level martial artist and advancing..."

The conversation was not finished.

This mysterious master suddenly sensed a faint fluctuation and instinctively looked towards the front right.

The other mysterious masters also sensed something and looked over at the same time.

At the same time.

An unexpected event occurred.

"Boom!"

A muffled thunder.

Everyone watched helplessly as the two Sea Eagles at the front of the fleet instantly shattered into a pile of debris in the deep sea.

The next second.

An urgent voice came from the communication array.

"Enemy attack!"
