Chapter 101 4. Sea Battle

The long journey by sea is disgusting, even the dead will feel bored in this situation, but considering that the next stop is going to the Dark Portal, the death goblin Buddy Moore suggested that it is better to start from the southernmost point of the mainland. Go to Stranglethorn Valley, which is very close to the swamp where the Dark Portal is!

This suggestion was accepted by Tyrion, and the death knights changed course and began sailing south.

"Tyrion!"

Luminas rushed into Tyrion's captain's cabin, her face that was not ugly because of death was full of gloating cold smiles, and she waved towards Tyrion:

"Come on! The Alliance and the Horde are at war ahead!"

"kindness?"

The death knight frowned, and he put down the obscure magic book in the book, which he borrowed from the blood mage Seven.

The work of "restoring" the death knight's skills in memory has now entered a bottleneck. The remaining complex skills and the advanced use of death energy require a certain amount of magical knowledge to support. The existing death knights are very A good fighter, but not a qualified researcher.

So this job can only be done by Tyrion himself.

"Red Blackhand was ambushed by the Alliance?"

Tyrion stood up and said to Luminas:

"You'd better inform Glokush, who is resting, he will be interested."

The young lady snorted, turned and left, and Tyrion also walked quickly onto the deck. A few kilometers away from the sea, he could clearly see that the 7 ships of the Horde were blocked by alliance warships several times their size. On the way, those heavily armed Alliance warships were bombarding the Horde ships.

Buddy Moore hid on the deck, holding his long ears with both hands, his face full of horror. Death was very kind to this goblin, and didn't even take away his fear.

Seeing Tyrion approaching, Buddy rushed to the leader's side, screaming loudly:

"Those alliances must have discovered us, Lord Tyrion, let's run, the Horde should be able to hold on for a while!"

Tyrion didn't answer, he squinted his eyes, and under the observation of the elves' excellent eyesight, he quickly saw clearly the Kul Tiras naval flag flying on the Alliance flagship, and the one standing at the bow, amidst the roar of gunfire. The human leader who commands the fleet.

"Dailen?"

The death knight frowned. He looked back at the terrified goblin, and asked in a low voice:

"What's the name of this sea area?"

"At the edge of the Khaz Modan Sea, there is an island where pirates often rest."

Seeing Tyrion's composure, the goblin couldn't help but gain a little confidence. He looked around anxiously, and said softly:

"That island is called Tide Falling Island. It is very rich in products. I once wanted to build a black market on this island, but was stopped by the damn trade prince in the end. Hell, he must have discovered the business opportunities inside..."

"Well, I'm not interested in your business!"

Tyrion interrupted the goblin's rambling memories, and when he heard the name of the island, there was a flash of clarity in Tyrion's eyes.

"The sea battle on Tidefall Island... Dai Lin seems to have lost one of the most important things in her life here, um... this may be, an opportunity..."

The death knight thought for a moment, put his finger in his mouth, and whistled, a silent skeleton horse rushed out of the cabin, Tyrion turned on the horse, and the cold death energy wrapped around the four hooves of the horse , this terrifying creature jumped down from the deck, and landed firmly on the sea full of waves.

The seawater around its hooves was temporarily frozen.

This thing is called Frost Road, one of the skills of the death knight restored by Tyrion very early.

"Buddy, let's go, wait for me at the edge of the battlefield."

He shouted to the goblin, pulled up the reins, stepped on the frozen sea water, and rushed towards the battlefield covered in gunpowder smoke ahead. The dead goblin lay on the deck, stuck out half of his head, and screamed:

"My lord, what are you going to do? Come back quickly!"

————————————————————————————————

"Send these dregs that come to your door to hell!"

Dai Lin stood on the deck of the flagship, his face flushed, obviously enjoying this kind of battle at sea, especially when the opponent he slaughtered was a greenskin, his fighting will will be raised to the extreme in an instant.

And in the roar of the admiral, the artillery of the entire fleet was roaring, throwing ammunition enough to level a mountain on the heads of the orcs, 30 battleships against 7 troop carriers, there was no suspense at all in this battle .

In fact, it was a real accident that the Alliance fleet was able to capture the Horde fleet.

When Red Blackhand's fleet approached Tidefall Island, Dai Lin's fleet had already rested and was ready to set sail. The two sides should have been perfectly staggered, but the young navigator Taylor had eyes sharper than an eagle. In the waves of the sea, he almost saw the faintly approaching fleet at the limit distance.

In naval warfare in the age of sails, this kind of keen observation is a very rare and very important trait. After receiving Taylor's report, the admiral decisively chose to stay and organized an ambush by the sea in a short time.

The crew of Red Blackhand are all Amani trolls recruited by the tribe, and some scum pirates who make a living at sea. Don't expect these people to have high tactical literacy. When they saw the alliance fleet, these sailors panicked Confused, he planned to turn around, but it was too late.

"Cunning alliance dog!"

With a face covered in black and gray, Reid clenched the red saber in his hand, staring fixedly at the alliance fleet that kept firing in the distance, his eyes were full of anger and unwillingness.

There is also a hideous scratch on his arm, which is a commemoration left by the shell that flew past the mast just now. The navy of Kul Tiras is very good at this kind of surprise attack. Almost in the first wave of attack, the Horde The masts of the 4 warships were interrupted, and the ships that lost power stayed in place alone, becoming the best targets.

Behind Red, the sailors of the tribe have fallen into the most panic state. The troll pirate Tony Double Fang, who is known as "the best navigator in the South Sea", even hid in a corner and shivered, which made the orc warlord even more angry. He roared and stepped forward, kicked Tony's body, grabbed his collar and lifted him up.

"Damn it! Get me the guns! Fire back! Do you hear me? I want you to fire back!"

The troll pirate originally wanted to suggest running away quickly. He knew that under such circumstances, the tribe would not be able to make a comeback, but when he saw Red's red eyeballs, he swallowed in fear. He knew , if he proposes to escape at this time, he will definitely be beheaded by this brutal orc.

"Fire! I'm going! Let me go, okay?"

A flattering smile appeared on Tony Double Tooth's sly face. Reid snorted and threw the old pirate on the deck. The latter rolled his eyes, rushed to the cannon on the deck, and opened fire indiscriminately. One shot, and while Reid wasn't paying attention, he turned around and jumped into the sea.

This move immediately attracted other sailors to follow suit. Although in this vast sea, swimming like this without bringing anything is a dead end, but right now they don't care about so much.

"Cowards! Cowards!"

Seeing the sailors jumping into the sea and fleeing, Reid was so angry that he grabbed the musket on the deck and fired at those guys who jumped into the water to escape. One unlucky troll was blown to pieces, and the disgusting blood Contaminated in the sea, it added a touch of ferocity to the already terrible battlefield.

"Mame! Mame, where are you?"

Reid wanted to fight back, but sea battles are not something that orcs are good at. Seeing the human fleet approaching, a scorching shell almost hit his body and hit the deck, but luckily it didn't detonate. Ignite, in the fast-burning flames, the orc gritted his teeth and rushed into the cabin, calling his brother's name. After a while, Maim rushed out of the cabin, clutching his arms:

"Brother, the bottom of the boat is flooded! Run! There is no hope."

"Take this!"

Reid stuffed the wooden box hanging around his waist into Mame's hand. He patted his younger brother on the shoulder and said in a tone of reassurance:

"Take it back to Orgrim, it is your guarantee to become Chieftain of Blackrock... As for me, I will not run away! I promised my father that I will not be a coward!"

"There is still a small boat on the deck, let's go!"

After finishing speaking, Red turned around and rushed out of the cabin without giving Maim a chance to refuse. Standing on the burning deck, Red was breathing heavily, and the blood-red light in his eyes was getting more and more intense. Looking at the alliance battleship less than 500 meters away from his side, he slapped his chest and roared at the enemy in the flames like a real reckless orc.

"Come on! Alliance scum, come and kill me!"

This scene was clearly seen by Dai Lin through the binoculars. The orc's face was familiar to him, but he didn't care. He snorted coldly and said to the great knight beside him:

"Adjust the angle of the artillery and blast that orc and his broken ship!"

"A mere orc dares to challenge the alliance! Since he wants to die so much, we will satisfy him!"

Under the command of the admiral, the artillery on Dai Lin's flagship turned their muzzles in unison, intending to send Red and his "flagship" into the icy sea with a frenzied burst of fire. Red seemed to have a premonition When the end was approaching, he took a deep breath and clenched the saber in his hands.

Even if it was death, he didn't want to die as a coward.

But at this moment, two loud roars came from the sky. The familiar voice made the Admiral's complexion change drastically, and Reid, who was already determined to die, showed an expression of escape from death. They raised their heads at the same time, looking To the sky, in the clouds, three huge red monsters flapped their wings and rushed into the sea below.

"boom"

Two scorching pillars of fire descended from the sky, like a cruel sharp blade. With the swaying of the dragon's head, the three warships on the edge of the battlefield were enveloped in the dragon's breath, and the other dragon hovered over the battlefield. The dragon knight observed Following the battle situation, he soon found the flagship of the alliance.

Amidst the wild laughter of the Dragonmaw orcs, the dragon folded its wings and rushed towards Dai Lin.

"Griffin Rider lifts off!"

"The maximum elevation of the artillery! Repel them with barrage!"

The admiral saw the giant dragon rushing towards the flagship, but this was no longer in the waters of South Sea Town, and it was not the first time he had fought the giant dragons. The admiral had already fought many dragons on the sea. Based on his experience, he drew out the command knife on his waist, and got the order from the admiral, and the battleship's artillery turned its direction again.

"boom boom boom"

The scorching shells rushed out of the barrel at the highest elevation angle. The gunners did not aim. For creatures with wings like giant dragons, precise aiming is meaningless. They poured the shells in the two directions with the fastest rate of fire Curtain, in this way to prevent the approach of the dragon.

The Wildhammer's Griffin Knights also took to the sky one after another. After the failure of Zurred Island, each battleship was equipped with more than 5 Griffin Knights, and almost all the Griffin Knights in Eagle's Nest Mountain were withdrawn. This extravagant equipment is to prevent the navy from failing again due to the dragon's surprise attack.

"Clatter Hula"

Nearly 130 griffin riders manipulated the ferocious griffins into the sky, densely packed like a swarm of bees. This number of sky hunters was enough to threaten the three giant dragons. The orcs should retreat, but they have confirmed that Dailin The existence of the three dragon knights could not refuse the temptation to kill an alliance king on the battlefield.

"Slap their wings and eyes!"

Kurdran Wildhammer assisted the Alliance Army on the frontal battlefield. This time the Griffon Knight was commanded by Kurdran's close comrade in arms, Alfonso Thunder who once fought with Red in the forest of the Hinterlands , this rough dwarf wore the goggles issued by the alliance, roared and waved the war hammer in his hand, and led his comrades to the raging dragon in the sky without fear.

"The Wildhammer has retreated once before the Red Dragon..."

Alfonso's roar resounded in the sky: "There will be no next time! No one can beat us in the sky dominated by the Wildhammer!"

"Not even the giant dragon!"

"Boom boom boom boom"

The thunder hammers flying from the hands of the dwarf knights formed a silver lightning barrage in the air. These powerful attacks hit the red dragons on the battlefield, and these adult dragons roared and screamed. Ben was forced to join the battlefield due to the threat of the skull-crusher Nekros to the Red Dragon Queen, and he had no will to fight at all.

However, the threat of the griffins caused the dragons to start a counterattack. They used their hard scales to scatter the formation of the griffin riders, their tails like battering rams and the scorching dragon breath raged in the sky, just to start a war In 3 minutes, the Griffin Knight had already lost more than 10 positions.

"Tsk tsk, it's really a big show."

Standing quietly in the waters of the battlefield, Tyrion raised his head, watching the death battle between the Griffin Knight and the giant dragons above him, and the three roaring adult red dragons, a trace of greed flashed in Tyrion's eyes.

The real undead dragon is definitely the death knight's best mount and combat partner, and he is thinking about whether he has a chance to get one this time.

However, his attention has been on the alliance flagship not far away. This is the purpose of his coming to this battlefield, and he doesn't want to miss it.

"Dai Lin, old friend, whether it's you or your son, this time, I know I won't leave empty-handed..."

Cataclysm started in 28th year of Dark Portal, now it is 7th year of Dark Portal... So, this Tyler is the Admiral Taylor we met in the game, yes, he ended up being the admiral of the Kingdom of Stormwind Will... I like this character very much, it always feels like he was buried with Nazgrim.
