The Bizarre Adventure of the Warhammer Elves

Chapter 54 Naval Battle

"Load the ballistae with shotguns, and keep the entire ship engaged at a medium distance. Don't let the dragon ship come up!"

All eighty Reaper crossbows entered the launch pads on both sides. Since most of Asul's warships were sail warships, the crossbows were all replaced with scattering crossbow bolts specially designed to hit sails.

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

But Rohan's heart was full of worries. The Eagle Claw Ballista's range completely overwhelmed the Reaper Ballista, so Black Ark had to keep a sufficient fighting distance and get closer.

But the forty frigates full of Lothern Sea Guards are no joke. If they are allowed to board the deck, Rohan will have no choice but to risk his life across the world.

Seeing the Azul fleet approaching in the fog, Rohan could only pray that the wind direction would be more favorable to him today.

On the dragon ship, Yana also had the same headache as Rohan. As a princess of the Kingdom of Lothern, her family asked her to lead this fleet just to make her resume look good.

However, looking at the black ark, which was as big as two dragon ships, she felt confused!

Yana sighed. She was obviously just a logistics person. It was her responsibility to bring people and then take them away, instead of fighting with this large black ark that was as big as a hill!

but……

Seeing the impatient eyes of the silver-helmeted nobles and Lothern navy on board, Yana could only order:

Bang bang bang bang——

After seeing that the dragon boat was sailing towards the Black Ark, the old crew member 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, ram directly into the Black Ark!"

In line with the idea that no fight would be in vain, Luo Han took out the repeating ballista that had been pushed into the cabin again, and even took the gunner's position himself, thinking that he would be addicted to it.

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

And this move just put these thin-skinned and big-skinned frigates into the range of 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 gang-hopping operation as soon as possible to prevent the long-range advantage of the magic turret from being used.

In this way, a sea battle in which the commanders of both sides were unwilling to participate in the battle, but the crew members were highly motivated, began in a confused manner!

"Prepare your shields and ballistae, and aim your attack angle at the Black Ark!"

The terrible thing about long-range weapons is that they prevent the user from feeling empathy for those who are being attacked.

"Prepare to attack! But remember not to chase the enemy too far. Our goal is to meet Charis's [White Lion] Army!"

There is no long-range firepower at all, and there is a lack of heavy weapons that can kill with one hit!

Corresponding to Rohan who is playing [Beach Landing], there is the Asul frigate that has no backhand power and can only be beaten!

The only Eagle Claw ballista they could use was placed on the bow of the ship. Most of them were damaged in the first round of bombardment. The few that could be used could not pose a threat to the Black Ark.

However, this was not over yet. As the reloading ended, the second round of bombardment from Black Ark once again swept across the deck of the frigate, making Yana couldn't help but shout to the chess player:

"Keep a distance and let them evacuate, we..."

However, soon, they will realize how much they actually need the shield on their backs:

Itain's navy took the lead in attacking. Taking advantage of its range advantage, the magic crossbow bolts of the Eagle Claw Ballista flew towards the huge body of Black Ark!

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 Black Ark:

"Fire the arrow! Hit hard!"

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

Luohan originally thought that the other party would take advantage of the long-range crossbow to fly his own kite, but he did not expect that the other party would actually come to his door for him to hit.

Moreover, Asul's frigates seemed to want to surround the Black Ark, so they all dispersed and charged towards the Black Ark as quickly as possible.

"Pay attention to dodge! Approach at full speed!"

Following Rohan's order, 80 Reaper ballistae and 4 repeating ballistae began to unleash their firepower, raining arrows from the sky towards the unsuspecting high elves!

Relying on the height advantage, these scattered crossbow bolts flew towards the Asul frigate thousands of meters away like raindrops, stringing the unsuspecting elves on the deck into candied haws!

"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 ship and then attack!"

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

You thought it was a formation of bombers attacking the Yamato, but in fact it was a strange cruiser equipped with hundreds of anti-aircraft guns, pressing the formation of aircraft that had not yet flown overhead to rub against the ground!

Of course, this can't be blamed on Yana. After all, Rohan's behavior is like installing a bunch of secondary guns on a battleship. You can't say it is useless, you can only say that this behavior itself is very strange.

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

Rohan wanted to help resist, but the magic power he had consumed in catching the fire dragon alive had not been recovered yet, so he could only hope that the boys would be more alert.

The captain of the dragon ship directly interrupted Yana's command. Looking at the somewhat confused crew members, he directly took over Yana's command and said:

Rohan licked his lips, sitting on the gun position of the repeating ballista and constantly pulling the trigger. At this time, he felt as if he was playing "landing on the beach".

The Lothern sea guards on the Assur frigate didn't know what was waiting for them. They put away their shields and took out their longbows, preparing to shoot.

"In that case... push the repeating ballista onto the deck!"

Yana, who was initially confused by the old captain's yelling, hurriedly stopped her after hearing the old captain's order:

"You are crazy, you will kill them if you do this!"

"Shut up! You are a noble lady whose mind is full of ox! We are sailors from Lothern, brave warriors of the sea god Marcelan, and none of us are cowards who are afraid of death!"

(Marthelan, the God of the Ocean, is one of the few reliable gods among the elven gods. He often protects his Asur naval followers. During ET, he was brutally killed by Slaanesh in order to protect the last elven people.

But compared to Lilith, who accomplished nothing and always caused trouble, Marcelan successfully protected this group of elves, and his power has been protecting the surviving elves after his death. This group of elves is the sea of ​​​​Elves in the AOS era.

Elf, a tearful god)
