Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

Chapter 58: gunner in place

"A raft! A raft! An elves are coming from the island!"

Such a voice came from far away from the window.

Kant's expression froze: "It's coming so fast."

He seemed to underestimate the decisiveness of these elves.

Burn the boat? Then get on the raft!

This news not only spread to Kant's ears, but also reached the ears of Goethe officers at the fastest speed. After a while, Captain Oswald's voice appeared on the deck.

"Mr. Kant! Mr. Kant!"

The captain called out slightly anxiously.

"I'm here! Wait a minute!"

Kant responded loudly, thought for a moment, and said, "Let's go to the deck!"

The parrot led the way, Kant and the animals broke through the other way to the deck, and the captain had climbed to the mainmast lookout and was looking out into the distance.

Kant looked around and found no Cavaliers: "Where's Cleveland?"

"The knights are leading the team to destroy the recalcitrant elves!" the captain replied, "you'll be fine. Now I will direct the sailors to resist these elves that have swam from the island, please avoid them!"

Kant raised his head and replied: "No, I and my partners can also help fight!"

"With all due respect, sir, aside from the order of Her Royal Highness to protect you, although you are brave and powerful, you don't seem to have any experience in combat, and in such a small battlefield, experience and cooperation are more important than pure courage. !" shouted the captain, "so please go back to the cabin!"

These words are old-fashioned and reasonable, but unfortunately Kant is not a person who blindly obeys authority. His family once taught him that if he is not persuaded, he does not have to give in.

He said: "Mr. Captain, your manpower is not sufficient. If things develop to the point of a battle, the situation will not be optimistic. I have a better suggestion. Would you like to hear it?"

The captain frowned.

The enemy is currently in an emergency situation. If he questioned his orders and talked with him was a subordinate on the ship, most of them would be thrown directly into the sea by him.

But this Aurora is not his subordinate, and it is the person that Her Royal Highness ordered him to protect.

Most importantly, he can play.

And his gang of animal companions are also very good at fighting.

He even suspected that Kant was a druid, because only a druid can tune-teach so many **** animals... In this case, he can't conflict with a powerful force.

Thinking of this, he suppressed the displeasure in his heart and said, "The situation is urgent. If you have any ideas, I am willing to listen to your ideas, but please hurry up."

Kant replied: "The answer is very simple. Our number is at a disadvantage, and we must not let the elves board the ship. Since this is the case, we will destroy the opponent on the way to charge... with the ballista on the ship!"

The Wing of Wayne has five giant ballistas on each side and ten on the second deck.

When Kant boarded the ship, he was taken aback by these big guys, because this ballista was really powerful, even more complicated than the Roman torque ballista. The elves' talent for shooting was really brought into full play. These ten ballistas had rotation. The gun mount has a gear transmission structure, as well as various accessories that he does not know but can guess the use of... Just looking at the construction process, it can be called a masterpiece of pure mechanical structure.

Let's just say, if there is such a thing on Earth, it will definitely be sought after and collected by related enthusiasts, and in this world, it should be a terrible weapon of war for elves.

Then the idea is very simple.

During the U.S.-Russian war, the Alloy-1 team and the Navy SEALs dived into the Hudson River from underwater, raided the Oscar II ballistic missile nuclear submarine, seized control of the submarine, and dumped its full load of long-range cruise missiles on the The surrounding Russian fleet is forced to withdraw from the east coast of the United States. This action of using the enemy's weapons to attack the enemy is a very classic tactic.

If Activision can do it, so can I, Kant.

After the captain heard Kant's plan, disappointment and anger flashed in his eyes.

He also thought that this Aurora people had plausible words and must have high opinions, but he didn't expect it to be such an idea.

But considering the opponent's ability and combat effectiveness, he still patiently explained quickly: "It's a good idea, but it's not practical. First of all, our manpower is not enough to raise the sails and change the ship's direction. In this case , no more than three ballistas can successfully shoot at the target."

"Secondly, the ammunition is insufficient. Each ballista has only three bolts. The other ammunition is stored in the arsenal, which is one of the strongholds where the remaining elves are fighting stubbornly."

"Again, it's late at night, and our target is just the elves on the raft. They are scattered, and our gunners can't accurately observe the exact location of the enemy, making it very difficult to shoot."

"Also, there is no spell caster to inject energy into special crossbow bolts. Our crossbow bolts are just pure crossbow bolts, which cannot exert the effect of area killing, and the shooting difficulty is further increased, do you understand?"

He sighed: "Thank you very much for reaching out, but now, I'm going to direct the defense, and if you really want to do something, you can help the Cleveland Cavaliers..."

Kant said: "Parrot, Brother Flathead, Howling Rat, go and help the knights... Don't let those elf dogs jump off the wall, trying to sink the boat or something, otherwise we won't be able to grab anything, pay attention to safety."

It's easier to convince them this way.

The parrot shouted, "Face the wind!"

Several small animals immediately ran in the direction of the cabin.

When the captain saw this, anger flashed in his eyes: "Mr. Kant..."

Kant turned a blind eye to his anger and majesty, and he walked calmly to one of the ballistas: "Mr. Captain, are you going to waste your time arguing with me, or are you going to do something more meaningful? Please send a few Give it to a sailor who knows how to operate a ballista, and I'll prove it to you."

The captain's sharp eyes almost turned into swords, nailed to Kant.

Kant just looked back at him calmly.

After a moment, the captain shouted: "Oliver! Take your assistant and report to Mr. Conder!"

Soon, several Goethes ran to Kant and saluted directly: "Mr. Kant!"

Kant took a look, Oh Huo, an acquaintance, he was beaten by him before, and he saw the resources provided by the good man Kant.

"Mr. Oliver, huh? You bumped into it today... If all goes well, you will be honored by your country, and my personal thanks."

Mr. Seed Dikang showed a life-long peaceful smile: "You know."

Mr. Oliver immediately showed a smile that all men understood: "Just give your order!"

Kant waved his hand and motioned to follow me.

Oliver has three assistants, four of whom operate the ballista. They and Kant came to the ballista. Kant turned his head and asked him, "Pillar... I mean Oliver, are you a ballista shooter?"

Oliver showed a proud smile: "Sir, the best gunner on the Penguin, no one."

Kant pointed to the huge heavy ballista on the base: "Even goods, can you use them too?"

Oliver quickly replied: "Yes! Both the elf ballista and the human ballista are designed with the technology of dwarf engineers. The difference in performance during the period is almost only due to the difference in materials and small details. Although we cannot play this role. The maximum performance of the ballista, but it can be manipulated."

Kant asked again: "According to the captain, you can't shoot with ballistas. The biggest problem comes from the problem of vision in the dark and the energy injection of ballistas?"

Oliver said loudly: "Yes!"

No impatience at all.

After all, he was just a ballista on the ship. His grade was not high, and he did not have the arrogance and prestige of the captain. Moreover, he also had mixed feelings of awe and admiration for Kant, which was far more profound than that of the captain.

After all, Kant can not only fight, but also have a kind.

The former can earn his respect, the latter can turn him into a licking dog.

Kant nodded in satisfaction.

Oliver's attitude made him very useful.

"Then I'll solve the first problem."

He took out a pair of sunglasses from his backpack and handed them to Oliver: "Try them on, do you know how to use them?"

"It's kind of like the Gryphon Rider's windshield and goggles..."

Oliver put on the sunglasses, and the sturdy Goethe man instantly turned into a man with sunglasses, and he exclaimed: "Poseidon above! Is this a magic jewelry?"

In his field of vision, everything around was glowing with a faint cold light, and every detail was visible.

As if he had the vision of a cat.

The enchantment of the amulet that can see in the dark has been painted on the sunglasses by Kant.

perfectly worked.

Kant asked: "With this, can you locate the direction of the sprite, and thus determine the angle of shooting?"

Oliver resolutely said: "Of course! With this, even if I can only use ordinary crossbow arrows, I can still maintain a hit rate of about 40% and directly nail the elf's raft to pieces!"

"No, because we have better bolts."

Kant put his hand into the bag and held a magic spar found in the room of Master Lacris. The spirit diverged, extracted and decomposed, and the huge elemental power poured into his body.

He said: "Now start loading the arrows, adjust the direction, position and get ready to launch, fast."

Oliver carried out Kant's order without hesitation.

In the hearts of these Goethe sailors, Kant is very prestige, not only because he can fight, but also because he is an admirable resource emperor - the reverence of men, sometimes it is as simple as that.

Kant saw the amazing beauty of the mechanical design of the other world.

This ballista is the product of pure mechanical work. It is driven entirely by manpower, and relies on the mechanical structure to the greatest extent. It has done the best in this respect... There must be something like this designed on earth, but it is not necessary, so Kant is the first Saw this kind of thing once.

Too hard.

It's just a man's romance.

He watched several Goethes keep turning the unknown handle and push rod, adjusting the direction of the ballista, the ballista and the launcher, just like the anti-aircraft guns during World War II. Oliver sat on it and adjusted some small accessories, constantly issuing orders, watching from afar.

The gunner is in place.

The two assistants put the thick and long crossbow arrows in the firing slot, turned the chord back and forth, and the back-and-forth transmission structure stretched the thick composite crossbow string back until it stuck.

After finishing the calibration, Oliver looked at Kant.

Kant put his hand on the arrow of the crossbow.

Huge elements surged out, pushing the enchantment.

Then he backed away, nodding in greeting.

Oliver looked up, made the final adjustments, and slammed the firing trigger.

With a dull sound, the ballista vibrated, and the arrows roared out, swept away into the distance.

There seemed to be a lingering spot of light left in the air.

"Keep your physical strength and move forward quickly on this basis!" Myron ordered in a low voice. Some of the surrounding rangers squatted on the raft, and some simply jumped into the sea. The precious space on the raft is used to store bows and arrows - although the elves' craftsmanship has certain The waterproof effect, but no water will undoubtedly maintain the maximum shooting performance.

They are eager to shame, worried that the Wing of Wayne will fall into enemy hands and shame the entire Royal Navy. The belief in the invincibility of the elves keeps their morale high. They are eager to return to the Wing of Wayne and destroy the daring invaders. Kill them all, and nothing remains.

As the commander, Myron is constantly inspiring the soldiers: "Don't be afraid, our comrades will resist in blood, and don't worry that the enemy will use our ballista. How can they see things in the dark? Casters can't mobilize magic power. , it will not be able to start the special crossbow arrows, even if they have the means to launch, they will not pose any threat to us, speed up, board the ship, board the ship! Kill them all!"

Just then, the familiar humming sounded from far to near.

Myron subconsciously shouted: "The crossbow is coming!"

With a bang, the huge crossbow arrow shot into the sea, splashing huge waves, and before the elves laughed at this quasi-head, the next moment, the blue electric light erupted violently!

The sea water conducts electricity, the electric energy is surging, the terrifying electric light suddenly spreads, and the surrounding sea water turns into a thunder pool!

The elves who were in the sea suffered immediately. Before they could scream, their whole body was paralyzed by the electricity, and they sank straight into the sea. Although the wood could not conduct electricity, the sea water still splashed a lot! The splashes of water scattered everywhere carried a fierce electric light, and many elves on the raft were electrocuted and fell into the water!

Adjutant Myron's eyes widened and his mind went blank. Although he was not attacked by the electric current, he was still shocked and dazed by what he saw - this is the Sacred Seal Island, why can the special crossbow be activated?

But the next moment, he woke up in horror.

Now is not the time to pursue this issue.

Rather...

Remorse and fear overwhelmed him, and he shouted, "Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!"

Ordering his subordinates to charge to the death wasn't a bad idea, since the ballista had the smallest angle of fire, but he had already seen Wings of Wayne raising her sails.

This means that the Goethes have mastered the maneuvering of the ships.

So, just retreat.

Adjutant Myron shouted: "Retreat! Retreat!"

His face was covered with drops of water, and he didn't know whether it was sea water or tears. He undoubtedly made a wrong decision. Many elves died because of this. Unwillingness and pain gnawed at his heart.

Affected by this attack, the elves were in chaos. Some wanted to rescue their companions, while others were at a loss. After hearing Myron's order, everyone was stunned for a few seconds. After all, they were not particularly elite.

At this moment, the second crossbow arrow struck.

Myron's eyes were cracked, and he shouted: "Retreat! Run ah ah ah ah!"

PS1: Ah, the cold is better. I will speed up the progress tomorrow. Good night everyone.
