The Bullocks ship fired an armor-piercing explosive crossbow. It hit the skull of the Hall of Valor, and immediately there was an earth-shattering explosion. Some white bone fragments were blown everywhere, and finally left a diameter of
A shallow pit of several meters.
The power of the Princess Cannon shook the Hall of Valor ship's body violently, deflecting the entire battleship's momentum.
Although with the thickness of Dilong's skull, even dozens of cannons could not penetrate it, Qianye's face was very solemn as his body was shaken by the shock.
"Check the damage!" Qianye's voice instantly spread throughout the ship.
"The main gun is normal!"
"Seven of the port side secondary batteries failed, resulting in twenty casualties."
"Three of the starboard secondary batteries failed, resulting in fifteen casualties."
The damage reports from all places were gathered at Qianye in the blink of an eye, and Qianye knew that his worries were not unnecessary. The demon descendant's Archduke-class ship was not an opponent that could be ignored. It was bombarded continuously by it, even if the Earth Dragon's body could block it.
Most attacks, but the shock caused by the explosion will damage the equipment inside the ship and cause casualties to personnel.
And Brox's ship passed by the Hall of Valor, and turned back with a smart turn. The giant crossbow nailed to its bow did not affect its maneuverability and combat power at all.
Howard stood next to Qianye and suddenly said: "I remembered, that is the Wall of Sighs! Opposite us is Grand Duke Brox!"
"who is he?"
"Brox has always been one of the strongest demons who is good at fleet combat. Under his command, he rarely loses in air combat. His most famous ability is the Wall of Sighs, which has incredible defensive capabilities. It is said that it is still an approximation.
The ancestor of the demon descendant has the ability of a king level, and the strong men of the Jerusalem family are generally good at defense. With Brox having this magical skill, it will be even more difficult to deal with."
Qianye suddenly remembered that he had met a demonic viscount who used the "Obsidian Shield" in Black Current City. He seemed to be from the Jerusheng family, which made him and Song Zining put in a lot of effort. They couldn't help but frown and said: "
How many times can he use the Wall of Sighs?"
"The past record is three times at most."
Qianye's eyebrows slightly stretched. Such a terrifying defensive ability naturally consumes a lot of money. Although it is only three times, it is enough to determine the outcome in most battles. There are not many Grand Duke ships that can withstand the opponent's three main guns.
The bombardment has not yet failed.
It's a pity that Brox's opponent this time is the Hall of Valor. If the losses are not considered, Qianye can withstand the opponent's main gun bombardment seven or eight times without changing his expression.
Hall of Valor speeded up again, jumped up in the air, and jumped directly over Brox's ship. Then it flicked its dragon tail and hit Brox's ship hard.
The Dragon Tail Sweep is the biggest killing move in Hall of Valor. Although Shen Lu has outstanding power, it is still a level lower than Hall of Valor.
However, the bow of Brooks's ship did not move, and the stern of the ship suddenly swung, and then the entire battleship flew sideways, just avoiding the attack of the dragon's tail.
This was another incredible maneuver, completely beyond Qianye's expectations. He did not expect that a giant ship with a length of more than 300 meters could perform such maneuvers that only appeared on high-speed boats.
However, Qianye did not panic, and drove the Hall of Valor to turn around, and Shen Lu roared again. But this time the attack was still blocked by the Wall of Sighs, and Dominic's counterattack once again hit the skull of the Hall of Valor, even Qian Ye
I was shaken all night and felt a little dizzy.
The two giant ships soon became entangled in a battle. The Hall of Valor was a dead zone from beginning to end. No matter whether the dragon struck the head or swept the tail, it was unstoppable. And Brox's Grand Duke's ship showed unparalleled strength. The maneuverability of the giant ship, which is hundreds of meters high, is as nimble as a fly, constantly flying around the Hall of Valor, and often narrowly avoiding attacks.
After a fierce battle for a long time, Qianye's Hall of Heroes actually failed to hit Brox once. Shen Lu's bombardment hit the target, but it was weakened by the Wall of Sighs and failed to cause fatal damage to the opponent.
Only then did Qianye understand that it was no wonder that Brox dared to come up to fight with an Archduke's ship. It seemed that in addition to the legendary maneuverability of his own battleship, the Archduke had also conducted extremely in-depth research on the Hall of Valor. .
The most remarkable thing is that whenever the Hall of Valor is ready to attack, Brox can maneuver in advance to avoid the most deadly sweeps and collisions.
If the battle continues like this, Qianye will be in an invincible position. However, the demon descendants are not only coming with these battleships, but also more transport ships.
While the Hall of Valor was tightly entangled in the sky, the demon transport ships landed one by one, unloading a large number of soldiers and equipment in an almost toppling manner, then took off again and returned along the way they came.
Tens of thousands of demons and troops directly under the parliament landed on the Xiri Continent, assembled, and then rushed towards the hastily built positions of the vampires, and the ground battle began.
The air and ground battles were fought at the same time and were equally fierce.
In the sky above the valley, on the battlefield where the Hall of Valor and the Brox ship were fiercely fighting, no warship dared to enter the fighting range. They did not have the power and tenacity of the Archduke's ship. As long as they dared to get too close, the Hall of Valor could stop them with a tail strike. Truncate.
In order to protect the vampires below, the Hall of Valor cannot leave the defense area at will. Otherwise, with the mobility and terrifying firepower of the Brox ship, from a high position, just one salvo can cause irreparable casualties to the vampires.
In this way, the air battle situation reached a stalemate.
In the bridge, Brooks would inject demonic energy into the control console from time to time. On both sides of the command cabin, there were as many as four Dukes, including Lin Jiaer, who were injecting demonic energy into the console in front of them.
It is the powerful strength of these top experts that supports the huge battleship to perform all kinds of incredible maneuvers, creating a small miracle of being able to contain a giant ship like the Hall of Valor by oneself.
Among the four dukes, Lin Jia'er was the first to be unable to support her. After all, she had just been promoted, and she had used special means to make her current unsteady strength even weaker than that of ordinary dukes.
Just as she left the console, her body suddenly flew forward and fell into Brooks' hands involuntarily.
The Grand Duke strangled her neck, lifted her up like a chicken, and shouted: "This is the Shen Lu you said no one can improve? Is the gap between its power and the data you provided a little too big?"
Lin Jia'er was already exhausted of her demonic energy, and now she couldn't breathe and couldn't say a word.
Brooks didn't actually expect an answer, he just wanted to find an outlet for his anger. He threw Linkel to the ground and said coldly: "Don't think that you can do whatever you want by relying on that old guy. If you hadn't seen As long as you are still of some use, I can kill you at any time. Get out of here!"
Lin Jia'er silently climbed up and left the command cabin without looking back. No one knew what the flickering light was in the depths of her eyes.
In the Hall of Heroes, Qianye kept driving the dragon ship to pursue Brox's ship. With such a persistent attack, sooner or later the opponent would make mistakes.
The battle on the ground gradually became more and more intense. The vanguard of the demon clan was violently blocked and suffered heavy losses in an instant. However, they had just landed and had not yet fully adapted to the natural environment of Xiri Continent. The firepower of the counterattack was very messy and could not suppress the firepower of the blood clan at all.
However, this force was an elite force, and they recovered from the initial attack in the blink of an eye, rushing to the left and right mountain walls respectively to find cover. The Chinese army, on the other hand, built mobile bunkers outside the range as a base for advancing.
The Vampires are prepared to fight. The people brought here by the Hall of Valor are all direct descendants of the ancient clans. Some may not be very strong and have little fighting experience, but they have all received strict and formal basic training. In the first position battle,
When firing, the difference can be seen. Their shooting accuracy is generally higher than that of ordinary mixed troops. The first wave of bullets caused considerable damage to the demons.
However, the demons and the troops directly under the parliament who came to hunt were also elite. After quickly finding the bunker, the counterattack was timely and powerful. However, there was no cover in the open area at the corner, and there were no servants used to consume firepower on the battlefield in the past.
, making it impossible for the parliamentary troops to charge against the hail of bullets, and could only shoot at the vampires.
In the blink of an eye, the war went on the track that Qianye expected. The vampires and the demons exchanged fire from across the sky. The demons had more and more experienced snipers, while the vampires had the advantage in terrain and fortifications. Both sides had their own advantages.
Director, casualties also increased step by step.
The exchange ratio of casualties was better than Qianye expected. The combat qualities of these direct descendants of the ancient clan were indeed outstanding. However, the losses of the parliamentary troops could be made up for by follow-up troops, while the vampires lost one dead person.
The ground war has entered the attrition stage, and what is competing is the will and fighting willingness of both sides. At this point, the vampires are unlikely to be the losing party because they have no way to retreat. The Parliament is a coalition, and after the casualties reach a certain level, morale will decline.
There are bound to be problems.
On the Archduke's battleship, Brox's face was gloomy, as if a storm was brewing. He input magic power more and more frequently, but the effect did not get better.
Among the four Dukes, another Duke ran out of demonic energy and left his position. Without the obstruction of the Wall of Sighs, even Shen Lu's attack would cause irreversible damage to the ship, let alone the Hall of Valor's
The dragon's tail swept across the hull of the ship. The power of the dragon's tail blow could directly knock out half of the unprotected Grand Duke's ship.
In fact, Shen Lu's greater or lesser power does not fundamentally affect the situation of the battle. It's just that although Brox has done research on the Hall of Valor, data is data. After facing it personally, he found that the evaluation that had been raised by one level in the past was still the same.
Underestimated.
The pressure on Brox is too great now. At first, he had some confidence that he could win the battle. The four dukes were specially prepared for the defense system, but now it seems that it is still not enough.
He blamed Lin Jia'er just to vent his anger.
In the Hall of Valor, Nighteye lost his usual laziness. In addition to helping to stabilize the internal environment, he was also paying attention to the war below. Dark Gospel's face was even more solemn. The death of every important descendant of the vampire clan below would make his cheeks red.
Something twitching.
After a moment, he sighed and said with a bitter smile: "Some of those children below are descendants of my old enemies in the past. But now every time I see one of them die, my blood core will throb."
Nighteye said: "We are born from the source of the river of blood, and we are all part of the river of blood. The loss of every mark is a loss to the river of blood."
Howard shook his head and said: "It can be seen that the Demon King wants to completely erase the marks of these clans from the river of blood, but I don't understand what is his purpose of doing this? If he wants to
To destroy the entire vampire race, it would be right to start with Paz or Monroe."
In today's understanding of the blood race, the Queen of the Night is the foundation of the entire race, the twelve ancient clans are the core foundation, and the first and second ranked Paz and Monroe are the leaders. The masters of these two clans
The clans and branches are also the most prosperous.
However, Howard and others discovered during the rescue that there was some deviation from what they expected. The ancient clans that were hardest hit this time did not include these two, but were instead a few at the lower end. If the demons were worried about Ye
The queen's anger is completely unreasonable.
However, Howard also knew that no one could answer this question. If he wanted to know the answer, he could only ask the Demon Emperor. He looked at the Demon Archduke battleship that was still fighting with the Hall of Valor, and he couldn't hide his anxiety.
Brox's ship is like the most agile cheetah, which makes a behemoth like the Hall of Valor helpless for a while. The final victory or defeat can be predicted, but the time of victory is unpredictable.
