Volume 1: Raging Waves City Chapter 65: Airborne
At this time, Luke's real body was standing on the bridge of the Luck Princess. He could see what Clear Sky saw in his eyes at the same time and knew that the Shamrock armed airship appeared.
He took out a telescope and searched the airspace where the target was, and soon found the target of the robbery.
Luke put away the telescope and said to Shelley beside him: "Send a signal to the naval warships behind: Pirates spotted, ask them to attack!"
Shelley once served in a steam fortress, and many of the technical aspects of the steam fortress were interconnected with navigation.
After receiving the order, she blew a whistle to the flag bearer standing on the mast lookout and quickly made a series of gestures.
The flag bearer received instructions to use flag signals to convey the message to the navy following behind.
This time, the fleet formed by the Cape District Secret Intelligence Bureau and the Nutao City Navy has a total of six ships . The Secret Intelligence Bureau has four merchant ships, and the Navy has a formal warship.
When determining the cruising formation, Luke requested that two naval warships be in the middle of the fleet. The reason was that if the pirates disguised themselves as merchant ships, they would definitely avoid the naval warships if they saw them.
The ships of the Secret Service are merchant ships, which can be scattered around the warships as bait to lure pirates. If the pirates dare to approach, the warships will attack at full speed, and the four merchant ships will intercept and outflank them.
A single bombardment can send pirates into the sea to feed the fish.
The navy readily accepted Luke's arrangement, and Luke volunteered to drive the Princess Fortune forward. This style of leading by example while in a high position was admired by the navy.
But the navy didn't know that the pirate ship was sailing in front of the Lucky Princess. But because of the curved surface of the planet, after the distance was increased, the navy could only see the Lucky Princess, but not the pirate ship ahead.
When the Lucky Princess sent flag signals to the navy warship following behind, the pirate ship sailing in front also saw the same set of flag signals.
For the pirate ship, this set of flag signals means: the plan begins.
The pirate ship received the order and turned its bow towards the Lucky Princess.
The two naval warships received the order to start the steam engines and move forward at full speed. The detective of the Cape District Secret Service was on the ship in front. If he made any mistakes, the credit of destroying a pirate group could not make up for the guilt of the death of a Secret Service detective.
Luke ordered the Princess Lucky to make way for the naval warship, and then focused all his attention on Clear Sky.
The wind hit my face through the mask, and clouds flew by my side. The blue sea was magnificent and vast, and the clover armed airship could be seen with the naked eye in the airspace not far away.
Luke controlled the clear sky to step steadily on the ice plate, and then expanded the area of the ice plate. The falling speed slowed down, and the flying posture changed to horizontal gliding. This feeling was like flying with a sword. I really missed the time when I invited a few friends to have an air race when I was playing games.
In the field of vision, the Shamrock armed airship was getting bigger and bigger. Luke adjusted the angle several times in the air, found the best entry point, and then lowered the angle of the ice plate and rushed towards the target .
However, as the distance between them and the Shamrock armed airship shortened, Luke discovered that there were ten more gargoyles on the top layer of the airship's olive-shaped airbag.
These things are not in the game plot. It should be because of Qingkong's interference that not only did the Clover armed airship take off early, but also added more defense forces.
I wonder what else I’ll encounter besides these ten gargoyles?
Luke did not change his boarding plan because of the discovery of the gargoyles. These alchemical puppets, whose strength ranged from two to three stars, could not cause much interference to him.
Luke controlled the ice plate to make a small turn, moving towards the airship from above, then gradually lowered the altitude in preparation for jumping to the top layer of the airbag.
On the top of the airship's airbag, ten gargoyles were installed on brackets on the airship's hull at intervals. They faced outwards, with their wings wrapped around their bodies, like statues of sleeping bats standing upright.
Luke's approach triggered the gargoyles' stress response mechanism, and their eyes turned from gray to red like shining gems, and their bodies turned from stony gray to light black.
The wings spread out instantly and a shrill alarm sound came from its mouth.
Then the gargoyles broke free from their bases, flapped their wings, and flew into the air, rushing towards Luke with strange screams.
Luke pushed Qingkong's level to level 80 and drew the sword hanging at his waist.
The main attack method of the gargoyle is to first use sound waves to shock the opponent's mind, and then bite it in close combat. In the air, this neat and effective attack method does have a considerable advantage.
Luke first glanced at the Shamrock armed airship below. The huge airship airbag blocked the pod below. The people in the pod should have received the gargoyle's alarm, but they didn't have time to react.
So……
Ice Dancing Garden.
Aquarius.
The water ice effect took effect in the air at the same time, and the gargoyles that rushed to Luke and roared looking for an opportunity to attack instantly became silent.
The gargoyle turned into an ice sculpture, its wings were frozen, and its body fell down unconsciously.
At this moment, Luke crushed the ice plate under his feet, and the sword in his hand drew beautiful sword marks in the air. The sword marks were extended and flew explosively towards the surrounding airspace, slashing at the ice sculptures that had no mobility at all, cutting them into pieces, and then scattering and falling into the sea below.
The sword mark flew away, and the crisp sound of breaking through the air continued for a long time.
Luke killed ten gargoyles with a large-scale sword attack, and then disappeared into the air.
After two more flashes and teleportations, the man was standing on the top layer of the airbag of the Clover airship.
Under his feet was the outer wall of a special airship airbag that was heat-insulating and high-pressure resistant. As long as a few holes were made on it to release the high-pressure steam inside, the airship would have no choice but to make an emergency landing on the sea.
There are sixteen steam bags inside the Shamrock armed airship, and the openings must be located in different places.
Just as Luke was about to work, four magicians used short-distance flying magic to rush up from the pod below, blocking Luke from the front and back.
They held magic wands in their hands, and their windbreakers swayed violently in the air flow, looking very cool.
"This is the armed airship Clover of the Imperial Taxation Bureau. Your actions have seriously violated the laws of the Empire. Sinner! Give up resistance and wait for the Empire to give you a fair judgment!"
Luke did not answer. She stood up straight, stepped into a T-step, put her left hand behind her, and stood in front of her with her right hand holding a sword.
This is the opening move of the Western sword skills in the game, which is of a ceremonial nature. This set of moves was used by Qingkong, and even though she covered her face, she was extremely elegant and noble.
The four magicians looked at each other in bewilderment, then were impressed by the aura emanating from Qingkong , and gave Luke a magician's salute together.
"It is our honor to fight you. "
Luke swung his sword in response to say he could fight.
