139 – Chapter 43. Battle of the North Sea – 4

– 140 –

The dawn is bright.

The sun, which had just reached the edge of the horizon, dyed the sky and sea white.

“Whoa.”

I felt the energy of the biggest fireball I could see in the physical world, and relaxed my body that had been aching from flying for several hours.

The aircraft of the demons that were flying in a mess over the sea were retreating all the way to the continent in the distance.

The scattered shards of weapons, the sunken ships, and the sea greedily swallowed up by all humans and demons, hid my feelings and trembled quietly.

Qwaang-!

The artillery fire continued intermittently.

The battleship’s huge main gun spewed fire, and the ripples created by the impact spread round the sea.

As the battle went into a lull for a while as the enemies locked up on the shore, I had time to look around the sea.

Several small boats were floating near the sinking friendly ship, wading through the water to rescue people.

It will subside in a little while.

“Eco2. I’ve caught almost all the birds, so I’m going to rescue those who are drowning.”

“Okay. We’ll grind some magic stones.”

Helicopters flying at a low altitude began to fall back.

Cermia and Shane’s helicopter, moving with them, shone dazzlingly in the sunlight.

Cheers erupted from the friendly fleet.

The crew members waved their hands while hanging from the deck railings while the enemy shells were splashing.

The morale of the allies was increasing just by being with the warriors.

It was not a good thing as the shoulders of my friends would be that much heavier.

If you lose even a battle with the warriors, your momentum will be down at once.

In order not to make that happen, I guess I’ll have to participate in a battle that is almost certain to win like this one, so that I can build awareness and experience as a warrior.

Actually, I was doing quite a bit, and I don’t think there would be any major problems.

“Thank you.”

The copper-skinned man who had been rescued from the sea bowed to greet him.

I was able to rescue a large number of people who were floating while embracing the float by flying the tube with a drone.

Because it was a very unfamiliar language, the interpreter bracelet could not translate properly, but simple communication was possible.

Puong-!

The enemy’s guns fell nearby, creating a huge column of water.

“I’m sorry. It is dangerous, so if a boat comes, get on another boat.”

“I see. I will give you this.”

Rescuing people from drowning, I got this and that.

The manastone boxes and emergency food floating on the sea started to accumulate inside the aircraft.

[[Captain. The inside has become damp.]]

“Hold on. There is nothing I can do about it because it is the sea.”

When the sun came up and it was time for breakfast, there were signs of battle again.

“Many enemy reinforcements appeared. Each ship, please form a line.”

Communication flowed from the Common Channel of the Union, and the ships began to move slowly.

The black fleet that appeared from somewhere was approaching from far beyond the horizon, exuding magical energy.

「Eco 1. A message from the Admiral. “The new fleet is too fast and the location is not good, so go and wait a little bit,” He asks. I will support you right away.”

I’m not happy with anything.

As Bartiers said, the Black Fleet appeared from a mysterious position and was approaching at a frightening speed.

It is difficult to turn the gun gates by approaching from the back, neither from the side nor from the back, and the time will not be right to reorganize the ranks.

Besides, the existing fleet of demons staying on the shore was also preparing to come out.

If you leave it like this, your allies will be surrounded.

“Yes. I’ll go.”

So, I had no choice but to turn my nose and head towards the Black Fleet while sighing.

Recalling my memories on Earth in the past, I think I had some knowledge about war.

There were frequent errors in that knowledge and experience here, mostly due to magic and shields.

The helicopter blocks the attack of the fighters and hits the counter, or the battleship is mainly used because the aircraft cannot penetrate the shield of the battleship even though the aircraft carrier is intact.

The most serious of them was the current situation.

A fleet that could be called a ‘ghost ship’ was glide across the surface of the water, exuding black magic.

“They are similar to the ones I dealt with in the spirit world last time.”

At that time, there was no time to worry about the ghost ships because they were dealing with water dragons, but in my vague memories, they were clearly leading an old-fashioned ship.

But now, there are a lot of modern battleships, smaller ships, and submarines.

“From Echo 1 to HQ. The enemy fleet is two battleships, a little smaller… Is it a destroyer? Six. Confirmation of multiple submarines.”

“Two battleships, six less than a cruiser, and many submarines. Copy. Helicopters and call sign water birds have departed, so please focus on blocking submarines together.”

“Rager.”

Still, there is no carrier, so we just need to be careful with anti-aircraft guns.

As the words become seeds, the demon crews aimed their anti-aircraft guns at me.

The guys with long guns and guns have grown up a lot.

Druck-

Fortunately, it’s not anti-aircraft magic or missiles that do a lot of damage, it’s a magic bullet-based Gatling type.

If you just raise the altitude a little, it won’t fit.

However, I pretended to raise the altitude slightly, but instead pushed the lever forward and approached the battleship quickly.

The demons who were trying to chase me away with a threat clinged to the anti-aircraft guns with bewildered expressions and resumed shooting.

“[[Hellfire.]]”

The fire went out before the anti-aircraft gun could even warm up.

However, the Hellfire could not penetrate the black energy and burned it to death.

The anti-aircraft fire started again, and I increased my altitude.

“Oh.”

Because the altitude was too high, a check came from other ships as well.

A thickly formed magic bullet fire net around me pounded the shield.

Should I retreat?

No, the shield is still strong.

Besides, the friendly fleet is currently in the midst of a battle with the enemy fleet it was originally targeted at, so if I retreat now, they will be surrounded.

The helicopters that started after me were about to arrive, and if you retreat now, they will be swept away by the enemy fleet.

“From Echo 1 to Helicopters. We’re a little far away and we’re keeping a close eye on the submarine to make sure it doesn’t escape!”

「Larger.」

While giving orders with his mouth, he played the lever with his hands nonstop to dodge the attack, and then attacked again.

“Anti-ship magic, [[Harpoon.]]”

Anti-ship magic that increases the power of water because it contains the power of the element of water.

If this doesn’t work, you’ll just have to take a long time to play like a bait.

[[Load complete!]]

“Fire!”

The blue harpoon flew towards the anti-aircraft guns above the ship.

The demons holding the anti-aircraft guns did not even pretend to run away, trusting the black shield.

And he had to pay the price with his own life.

Harpoon, who penetrated the dark energy, caused a huge explosion and destroyed her deck.

The expression on the face of the demons’ fear was vividly seen at a small altitude above the deck.

Next time, I hope you will be born with a life other than a demon.

After confirming that the anti-aircraft guns and guns installed on the battleship were broken, I turned to the next ship.

「This is water bird 1. The enemies are scattered.”

“OK. If a ship with good anti-aircraft defense approaches, avoid it.”

“Rager. We will continue our submarine tracking mission.”

After checking that the helicopter units were scattered all over the place in pursuit of the submarine, they attacked the small-sized ship next to it.

After neutralizing one anti-aircraft network, they desperately tried to shoot down me.

Suddenly

A warning sign appeared in the corner of the front window due to magic bullets and anti-aircraft magic that scratched the shield.

[[The shield value is reduced to 50% or less. Shall I use the Reserve Manastone?]]

“Yes. Can I use the box I received earlier?”

[[Yes. I think you can use it right away if you put it in.]]

“Let’s start with the stockpile. I need to neutralize these guys as well and fix them.”

[[Larger.]]

After replenishing the shield by using all of the mana stones in the stockpile, he started dismantling the enemy’s weapons one by one with Harpoon.

“This is HQ. Echo 1, how is the situation?”

“Completed neutralization of the weapon system of one enemy battleship and one smaller ship. Waterfowl are tracking the submarine. Which one?”

“Most of the enemy ships on the continent were sunk or scattered. The battleships and the warriors, including the Bartiers, are attacking the enemy port, and the rest of the ships are moving to the location of Echo 1.”

“Copy. Tell the fleet to watch out for submarines.”

「I understand.」

The current submarine was a kind of asymmetric force that the allies did not have.

If you look back at the past, it was similar to the time of the Shinma War, but to be honest, we didn’t need a submarine.

The water spirits detected the submarine in advance and installed shields and mines in the water, or created a vortex to prevent them from even approaching.

But right now, except for the Bartiers among allied ships, there is no such level of water spirit attached to it.

In this case, submarines and torpedoes pose a great threat.

“Would you like to take a break?”

[[Where?]]

“Here.”

After neutralizing up to the third ship, they united and got down on the deck of the Asmodian ship.

“Hey!”

The demon sailors were terrified and began to run away.

It seems that they lost their fighting spirit when they saw the guys attached to the anti-aircraft guns or guns lying around.

I calmly summoned the main body from the empty deck, and then replenished the mana stones on the deck.

It was the first time I summoned the main body after the unification of the whole, but I didn’t feel any power as if the soul had escaped.

“Aren’t you moving in this state?”

[[Yes. Because we are all here to move engines and systems.]]

“That’s right.”

I’ve used unification a few times, so I was reluctant to use it except in special situations or when it was necessary because it consumes a lot of magic power when converting and the power of the workshop is not good.

However, it is a necessary ability in a situation where you have to break into the enemy camp alone like now.

After bringing the main body back, I climbed onto the railing.

I saw demon ships aiming their guns this way.

“We are on the same side, but there is no mercy.”

When I jumped off the railing, the magic fired from the guns shattered the ship I had just been on.

Leaving behind the hot explosion, it flew low as if brushing over the water and headed for a battleship that was still intact.

The battleship that attacked the first time attacked the other ships without concern.

In that case, the enemy boss who is leading this fleet is probably over there.

The flagship will have a strong defense, so there is a limit to hitting it with the main body, and if the fleet heading here and the fleet of demons here clash, the damage will increase.

Before that, if I catch the boss and send the fleet back, the battle will be over immediately.

Sureung

I took out the most comfortable long sword and shield.

The demons were pointing at me and shouting, but because I was approaching so low and fast, I couldn’t use the armaments on the ship.

He climbed up on the deck of the battleship, avoiding the attacks of demons with personal firearms or blocking them with a shield.

“Hello?”

After igniting the sword with hellfire, he defeated the attacking demons one by one.

Sometimes the habit of the spirit world remains, and I am a little reluctant to take my life with a sword, so I slowly entered the bridge, making it impossible to use only my arms and legs.

“!!”

The moment I entered the hallway, a clear magic line appeared in front of me.

I instinctively bowed my head.

Tang-

A powerful bullet passed overhead.

A few strands of scattered hair oxidized in the air, and a creepy feeling ran across his spine.

I saw blue-skinned demons with triangular hats pointing at this side with their guns in their hands.

He quickly rolled to the side and opened a nearby iron door to use as cover.

After a while, the iron door was torn off by the fire again, and the wind hole was blown away.

I got out of the iron door in advance and entered the room slightly, so there was no damage.

I hope it has the power to blow up even thick iron gates.

It is too destructive for a personal weapon.

Does it take that much time to reload? The duration between the first attack and this attack is about 10 seconds.

While they were reloading, I jumped out of the room and flew down the hallway.

Shoots the floor and flies low, kicking the wall to quickly swerve and at the same time switch weapons.

The rifle bullet pierced the forehead of one demon.

The other guys continued to load without showing a sign of embarrassment.

“[[Hellfire!]]”

I put in my weapon and fired a hellfire with my right hand, but the demon with a shield came forward and it was blocked.

If it is not the main body, the power is significantly reduced.

After the demons finished loading, they aimed their guns at me.

There is no cover now.

But I had a trump card.

“[[Wind!]]”

A fierce tornado swept through the pendant.

The demons tried to hold on, but instead of keeping their aim, they couldn’t even control themselves and were thrown into the walls, ceiling, or floor of the hallway.

“Huh.”

I felt the magic of my whole body draining away like an ebb.

All actions in the united state use my magic directly, so if you use a skill that casts one large magic stone, you will run out of energy.

“Did you get emergency food earlier? Give me one.”

[[Here you are]]

By biting the packaging of the chocolate bar that came out of the pendant, he cut off the limbs of the scattered demons one at a time and picked up a gun.

“It’s a type of musket that only goes in one foot.”

I picked up the one that had been loaded and stood in front of the captain’s room where the enemy commander might be.

“Are there any attached bombs left?”

[[The bomber squadrons were all gone.]]

“Then there is nothing I can do.”

After changing the weapon to a shotgun, I shot it a few times on the doorknob, but it was not easily destroyed because of the thick iron gate.

“Then… ….”

I saw the musket in my hand.

It’s enough to tear off the iron door in the hallway earlier, so I’ll just have to shoot it a few times here.

Taang! Taang!

I’ve shot about five or so shots.

A voice came from beyond the broken door.

“Surrender! I will surrender!”

“Are you the boss? I’ll give you 10 seconds. Come out now.”

The demons who barely opened the door that didn’t open well and showed up looked similar to those crawling down the hallway.

I grabbed the demon’s collar and threw it to the floor, wearing white, blue skin and colorful triangular hats.

“Ugh!”

I’m not that strong.

He pointed the shotgun in his right hand to his head and threatened in a low voice.

“Take over the fleet now. It’s a battle you lose even if you just stick together anyway. Will it end well?”

“I can’t do that.”

Taang-!

“Wow!”

When the demons saw that the wall of the hallway right next to their head had been pierced by bullets, they cried out in terrification.

“I have no authority to do that! It is true that I own this fleet, but the actual movement is… Whoops!”

The demon grabbed his neck without talking, and then he drooped.

The black energy slowly rose from his body and stabbed me in the direction of me.

“Where!”

After slashing out the black energy with the long sword that he pulled out again, he lit hellfire.

Paat

The dim lights in the hallway started to go out one by one.

I had a bad feeling, so I cut off the demons’ limbs and turned around to get out, but at first glance, I saw the silhouettes of dozens of demons at the entrance.

And the hallway was engulfed in complete darkness.

“Damn.”

Without being able to do anything, I went into the captain’s room.

I took the documents on the desk lit by a dim candle, put them in as they could see, and shot Hellfire through a small window.

Puoong!

Because the shield did not work for an attack from the inside, it was easy to drill a hole.

After piercing the darkness that came upon me once again, I threw myself through the thick gloves towards the small sea.
