Chapter 94 The so-called landing battle
Looking at the remaining fire groups, Betty felt that this was not a war at all, but a unilateral massacre.
Ethan stood there dullly from beginning to end. The battle was not tested at all. The opponent's attack was the last time he hit the sea fifty meters away.
With such a distance, even the outermost magic shield is not triggered.
"Wouldn't it be too cruel?"
Although Betty is a student in the military academy, she has not experienced any baptism of war. No matter what kind of knowledge she learned, she is essentially just a little girl - she just slept for a long time.
Looking at the seafarers floating and storming, Betty began to feel that they were pitiful.
"Don't sympathize with these people, because when you fall into their hands, they won't sympathize with you."
As thugs of the guild, these people guarded this sea area. I don’t know how many adventurers they killed, but it can be said that none of them are innocent.
Ethan did not attack them this time for justice, but attacking bad people is always easier to accept than to act kind and good people.
Prince Eugen swam in the distance for a while, and new warships were sent in the circular building. These warships still had no way to threaten Prince Eugen. One would be sunk.
In the end, except for the few ships that rescued their companions who were not sunk by Ethan, any warship that showed an attack tendency would be named mercilessly by Prince Eugen.
When the battle reached this level, the battle could be considered to be coming to an end. When the other party found that there was no way to deal with Ethan's warship, they even gave up on continuing rescue. The remaining two rescue ships also turned around and retreated. Then the circle of docks around the huge circular building began to close, and it seemed that they were preparing to escape?
"Have you found the other party's energy core or drive device?"
With the various black technologies carried on Prince Eugen, it is not difficult to find the location with the strongest energy response in the opposite building. Even during the battle just now, Maria Hill took advantage of the other party's attention to Prince Eugen and sent a small detector to sneak into the opposite building.
"Not yet, but it shouldn't be long."
As he was talking, someone suddenly connected to the communication channel of Prince Eugen.
It was not the Magic Stone Communications Facility that Ethan later installed on the ship, but the communication equipment that Prince Eugen itself was equipped with. Currently, only the people on Prince Eugen can connect to this signal.
After looking around, I found that Ada had disappeared at some point. Ethan immediately guessed where the woman had run away.
"You found the target?"
"You really know me."
Ada's voice came out of the loudspeaker, and the people in the bridge looked at each other, not knowing when the woman left and even sneaked into the enemy.
As for how Ida moved from Prince Eugen to the opposite building, it is not difficult to guess. Sea battles often take a long time, just one turn to find the next shelling opportunity, which may take several hours.
The battle between Prince Eugen and the Guild Fleet was a quick naval battle, but it also took a lot of time.
Such a long time is enough for Ada to run from here to the opposite side - there is a lot of equipment on the ship, such as a small underwater propulsion equipment warehouse.
In addition, the battle here is dark, making it easier for Ada to sneak in, because the other party's attention is attracted by Prince Eugen, and the internal defense becomes even more relaxed.
In this way, Ada successfully found the power chamber of the building and simply destroyed the power facilities.
The circular building that lost its power source turned on backup energy, but although the dock was closed, it did not dive. It seemed that if you want to dive underwater, you must rely on the main power source, and backup energy is not enough to drive such a large building to dive.
It may also be other reasons, such as the situation of underwater survival devices, but because I don’t know what exactly, Ethan can’t be sure of it.
"Let's go over."
Originally, Ethan wanted to destroy this facility, just like the destroyed warships, they all exploded into pieces. Later, when he thought that there might be some secret information hidden here, it is very likely that he could find relevant information about the control room of the training ground world, so he resisted and did not destroy the thing directly.
Prince Eugen began to approach the other side quickly, and the distance between the two sides was rapidly getting smaller.
Even though the main power equipment was destroyed, the huge circular building like a small island was not without any force to fight back. Many turrets stretched out one after another around the island. When Prince Eugen approached a certain distance, these cannons frantically poured fire on Ethan's battleship.
The dense energy bombs were blasted out, and the power of these energy bombs was stronger than the shells fired by any main gun in the fleet before.
Add to the amazing number, in theory any warship close to them will be torn to pieces under this terrifying attack.
Unfortunately, Prince Eugen does not include these warships.
As Prince Eugen, which has installed countless black technologies and is specializing in amazing defense, after turning on the magic shield, he can move forward firmly against the bombardment of the energy bomb like a rainstorm.
"Their firepower is so strong, why didn't they use it before?"
“The speed is too slow and the range is too close.”
Without the need for Prince Eugen's intelligent system to analyze, Ethan could see the biggest problem with these defensive turrets at a glance.
At the location where Prince Eugen was previously active, these turrets locked the target, and even calculated a certain amount of advance before firing. When the energy bomb flew near Prince Eugen, Prince Eugen had already driven out far away.
Of course they can continue to increase the amount in advance, but Prince Eugen does not follow a fixed route, and there is no way to judge the long-distance activity route of Prince Eugen.
In addition, it is not that energy weapons have no concept of range. After flying for a distance, these energy will decrease due to reduced condensation and loss of energy during flight, etc. - Once the energy intensity of pure energy weapons decreases, their killing power at the extreme distance is even worse than that of the little fist that the little girl waves casually.
Without special technical means, the energy consumption of the same level is stronger, and the power of live-fire weapons is only too poor in the world and the unique products of magic stones have led to the world's focus on developing energy weapons.
Because Ethan also considered the problem of supply difficulties, Prince Eugen's main guns were all energy weapons.
But Prince Eugen's main gun can fire physical ammunition!
"Use armor-piercing bullets!"
For this fortress-like building, armor-piercing bombs are much more suitable than pure energy bombs. With the operation of the automatic loading system, Prince Eugen's front main gun has been loaded with live ammunition and directly locked the target during navigation.
"Open fire!"
The roar of the naval guns continued to sound, and at this moment, it felt like a warship. Compared with the launch of energy bombs, the shocking power generated when the live ammunition was launched was much greater.
People like Laura and Betty who lacked the concept of live ammunition gun fire were shocked by the loud noise, and Betty was almost scared to fall, thanks to Jonathan who helped him.
Compared to these "uninformed" girls, Jonathan and O'Connor are not unfamiliar with naval gun fire because of their era. They are from Britain, which ranked first in the world in the naval strength at that time.
Due to too many turrets on the opposite side, Prince Eugen adjusted the direction again after advancing for a distance, aimed one side at the circular building, and fully exerted the firepower on the other side.
The power of armor-piercing bombs is very powerful. Almost every time they fire, they can destroy a defensive turret - compared to the circular building that can only float on the sea and cannot move, Prince Eugen can avoid the opponent's fire-intensive areas by moving, focusing on clearing the most threatening defensive positions.
The other party could only passively pour out the firepower, and after a few rounds of fighting, facing the side of Prince Eugen, there was almost no intact turret, and there were fires everywhere - this was also caused by the incendiary bombs fired by Prince Eugen, because the opponent was using energy weapons, and there were almost no mortal explosions, and there were no ammunition depots and other facilities to let Prince Eugen play a single blow and kill them.
"Do you still have to continue shooting?" Hill looked at the situation opposite, and the enemy basically lost the ability to resist. If it was in SHIELD, she could now consider sending the Marines to land and occupy the building directly.
Unfortunately, there is no Marine configuration on the Prince Eugen. The members of the ship are responsible for landings and boarding battles. The one who is the highest commander on the ship often undertakes such tasks.
"I'll go over and take a look."
Ethan indeed made the decision to take action personally. No one expressed dissuasion. As the strongest combat power on this warship, if Ethan would encounter danger, then no one could perform this mission.
Unexpectedly, everyone was very enthusiastic. Not only did Logan continue to act with Ethan as always, O'Connor also expressed his desire to participate, and Shirley also wanted to try out what her current strength is.
Not to mention Mordred, who can join in any fun.
Except for Annette and Evelyn, two women who would never participate in the battle, even Jonathan was willing to join in. In the end, only Serena would stay to protect the "logistics and commanders" left on the ship. The rest of the people would follow Ethan to the huge building opposite.
Ethan gave everyone some preparation time, but in just a blink of an eye, everyone changed into combat equipment. This is the convenience of space props - Betty is envious of this.
And for Ethan and the others, there is something more convenient: the so-called login battle is actually opening a portal in the other party's core area.
"Ada, help me with the positioning."
