Earth's Best Gamer - Chapter 345
Chapter 345: Electromagnetic Cannon: Silver Dragon’s Mouth
“Not good!
“An enemy is charging at the guqin ship!”
On the Mirage Dragon Warship, a scout player who was holding binoculars saw Wang Yin jump off from the golden ship and became grave.
“It doesn’t matter. He can’t possibly make it to Zhou Yu…”
Li Qing, as the head of the scouts, responded very calmly.
He controlled a multi-barreled machine gun that had a long chain of bullets while he fired at one of Fang La’s warships consecutively!
Half of the dozen soldiers on the warship were instantly killed, and the rest of them quickly jumped into the water.
“Speed: 127.3 meters per second… Target acquired… Calculating the trajectory…”
At the same time, in the area of the Metal Men where the high-tech division of the Twin Dragon Island, a slightly mechanical voice came out.
Above the Silver Liquid Lake, which was rather spacious and was a critical location to the settlement, a metal “dragon head” that had a particularly long head had been established. In the opened mouth of the dragon, a blue ball was quickly brightening up.
[Silver Dragon’s Mouth]
[Level: Extraordinary Rank-9]
[Rarity: Superior]
[Description: This is an electromagnetic weapon created by the high-tech division of the Twin Dragon Island and poses a lethal threat to most Extraordinary creatures.]
Yes, an electromagnetic weapon.
This weapon was not based on the information from the military on Earth or the SkyNet.
Rather, it was created by Elder Jiao with the design he bought during the Ten-Species Competition, the materials he exchanged with other settlements, and the help of the other players from the high-tech division. It was also the most powerful hot weapon against individuals. Like the Flood Dragon Egg that could cause area damage, it was also one of the Twin Dragon Island’s trump cards.
Of course, he could successfully build the electromagnetic cannon mostly because of the existence of the Silver Liquid Lake.
The Metal Men had mastered the electromagnetic power in the first place, and they had built an enormous square right below the area of the Silver Liquid Lake that was likely a device for electromagnetic acceleration.
According to Elder Jiao’s estimation, if the energy could be fully utilized, it could even threaten the Transcendent creatures.
Sizzle! Sizzle…
Next to the Silver Liquid Lake, An Quan, who wore a helmet that was connected to the core of SkyNet, stared at Wang Yin who moved on the surface of the sea, and an Applet he made with his talent was running crazily in his head.
“Calculation completed. Launch!”
When Wang Yin was only about a hundred meters away from the guqin ship, An Quan widened his eyes and gave a command.
Hum!
A silver cannonball the size of a human fist and covered in blue light dashed out of the dragon mouth towards the white horse that was moving at a high speed on the surface of the sea in an almost straight trajectory at a speed much higher than that of regular cannonballs!
The distance between them was quickly shortened.
“Wait… Something isn’t right!”
Although Wang Yin had detected the anomaly with his Extraordinary Rank-5 mental power and his keen observation the moment the Silver Dragon’s Mouth launched the attack, there was no time for him to dodge!
After all, he was riding a horse.
Although his horse was an extraordinary beast that could ride thousands of kilometers in a day, it wasn’t a human being after all and couldn’t change direction in an emergency.
“Heh!”
Therefore, the Minister of War, who attempted to decapitate the enemy commander, could only try to raise his Extraordinary long spear.
With his intuitions that were based on his mental power, he placed the long spear in front of his chest.
Crack!
However, faced with the electromagnetic cannonball that was coming at a high speed and covered in a blue light, his Extraordinary Rank-8 iron spear hadn’t even carried out its extraordinary power when it was shattered by the glowing light!
Boom!
After the silver electromagnetic cannonball the size of a fist destroyed the spear, it brutally crashed his Extraordinary Rank-8 armor and knocked him away from the horseback.
He didn’t fall into the sea and disappear until he flew more than a hundred meters above the surface of the sea!
His horse, which could cross rivers and climb mountains, was left alone in front of the warship in confusion.
“That weapon is truly astonishing…”
On the guqin ship, Zhou Yu and Yue He were slightly surprised even though they had seen it coming.
“Not good! The Minister of War has fallen into the water!”
“It’s a Heavenly Strike! The enemy used Heavenly Strike again!”
Seeing that, Fang La’s troops were panicking even more.
Some of them even mistook the electromagnetic cannonball for the Heavenly Strike that Ji Ye mentioned.
“His Majesty has ordered us to retreat!”
Very soon, everyone on Fang La’s warships was shouting.
That couldn’t be helped. Wang Yin was Extraordinary Rank-8 and was almost the strongest in Fang La’s troops, yet he could not even resist one attack from the Silver Dragon’s Mouth. None of the soldiers who witnessed that could remain calm.
Now that half of the fleet had been destroyed and their commander had fallen into the sea, how could they possibly fight on?
However, it wasn’t so easy to retreat.
All the sails had been burned by the sonic phoenixes. They could only row the warships back, and their speed couldn’t be high at all.
“Not good! Water is leaking in at the bottom of the ship!”
“Someone is digging into the ships from underneath the surface of the sea!”
A dozen warships had broken bottoms and serious leakages during their retreat.
“The bottom of the ship is on fire!”
Some of the warships’ bottoms were even set ablaze even though they were in the water.
Holding a Tiger Shark Saber, which could invoke the Bloodthirsty Golden Fire that could burn in the water, Ruan Xiaoer had dug through the bottom of a warship that carried a hundred soldiers and threw a bottle of Fire Oil to its bottom to set it ablaze.
He said rather proudly, “Ha, sons of bitches, let me show you what I’m capable of!”
The navy units of the Twin Dragon Island, including the Dragon Tooth Battalion and the Water Demons, were both capable of stealth in the seawater, so it wasn’t a problem for them to sink ships at all.
The Dragon Tooth Battalion, in particular, as one of the earliest special units on the Twin Dragon Island, wasn’t large in number, but all its members were above Extraordinary Rank-5 at this moment.
For that reason, the Ruan brothers were not only responsible for sinking the ships but also for taking care of Fang La’s soldiers who jumped into the sea after their ships sank.
Although it was a dangerous mission, it was quite a rewarding one too!
More than fifty of Fang La’s soldiers had been killed in the battle.
In his fate memories, he was forced by Fang La’s army to kill himself. But now, he had finally avenged himself!
