Chapter 109: Fishing Is a Lot of Fun
"Do you all have your own strengths? People always stand out in some aspects. You also have things that are ahead of others. We are all the same." I smiled and said: "This time you have to help me gather those guilds." Get up, and it must be fast. You don’t need too many ships, but people from various guilds must be there. I mainly want you to be a witness. If I really want to fight my own fleet, I will destroy them. The main thing is for you to be a witness. .As long as you help me complete this mission, I can sell you the crystal communication machine. Although I can't sell the technology to you, we can sell as many units as you need as long as you need them. What's the price...! According to cost price and manpower. Calculating the total consumption, I won’t make you any more money, and the conditions are favorable enough, right?”
"Okay, I'm relieved with your words. You send a boat to be our guide, and I will gather the warships from each guild right away. We will definitely set off before noon."
"Don't worry, I promise to nail the Japanese warships to the Pacific. You won't let them escape until you have even one."
After the communication ended, Terry and I started to separate. Terry's job was to gather the American guilds that had been victimized, and my job was to delay the Japanese's return. The data observed by Babel Tower shows that the Japanese camouflage fleet has passed the middle point of the Pacific Ocean. In other words, if it is not blocked, the Japanese fleet will definitely reach Japan before Terry and the others arrive. As long as this fleet returns to Japan, our plan will be a failure. It is impossible for the Americans to follow me and wait for them to come out off the coast of Japan.
It seems that if you want to intercept this fleet, you must use some extraordinary means. After thinking for a while, I connected the communication to Essinger again. When the player guarding the communication machine saw me, he immediately asked: "President, really red, have they received you?" From the sound of the voice, this seemed to be the mm who answered my call that night. .
"Got it. I'm on the ship now. Is King Chuang in the guild?"
"I'm not sure. Do you want me to go look for it?"
"Can't you just use chat mode to find him?"
"Ah? President, you don't know yet?" This girl looked at me in surprise.
"what do you know?"
The mm said: "The chat mode was canceled after the last upgrade. Now there is no such thing as chatting. If you want to communicate over a long distance, you need various corresponding equipment. For example, crystal communicators like our guild."
"What should we do if we don't have a communication machine?"
"You can buy sound-transmission balls in temples in Europe, and you can communicate using your own magic power. There are different levels of communication balls, and different levels have different transmission distances. They are also divided into three categories abc, and type a can transmit three-dimensional Image, type B is a flat image, type C only transmits sound. These spheres are very expensive and must be purchased in sets. If you buy two sets of spheres in two times, they cannot communicate with each other at all and must be 'synced' at once Only complete sets of magic balls can be purchased to communicate with each other. Because the price is too high, individual players have almost no equipment. The guild buys a bunch of them at once for the main leaders in the guild, and ordinary players cannot afford them. "
"What about the people here in China?"
"There are also temples in China, and it's the same thing to buy at the temple. Also, you can buy it at Taoist temples in China, but they sell wooden signs instead of magic balls. The wooden signs used by Taoist priests can also transmit sounds and Image, but there are some differences between Taoist wooden signs and magic balls. This kind of wooden sign is not classified into grades, and the transmission distance depends on how far you want it to be. Even if one of you is in the United States and the other is in China, you can use it. But the transmission distance is different. The mana consumption is also different. Although theoretically one can contact one in China and the other in the United States, the mana consumption rate is probably only a person of your level can last for one or two seconds. Ordinary players like us, generally No more than a thousand kilometers, but if you want to maintain a longer call. It is best not to exceed 300 kilometers, otherwise the connection may suddenly be disconnected in the middle of the conversation. But generally speaking, Chinese wooden signs are much better than the temple's magic balls. Firstly, it is cheap, and secondly, the transmission distance is generally much further than that of the magic ball. Moreover, the wooden cards are not divided into categories, as long as they are communication wooden cards, all the wooden cards can communicate with each other."
"Then you quickly inform Hongyue and ask her to get more wooden signs to sell in Europe." I will not let go of the opportunity to make money.
"President, are you too dark?" The girl couldn't help but make fun of me. "Actually, many people have your method, but the main system has blocked this opportunity to make money."
"Why?"
"After this game upgrade, the name of our mp value has changed. In the past, everyone's mp was called magic value, but now it has been changed. The European warrior's mp is called fighting spirit value, the Chinese martial artist's mp is called internal force value, and the mage's mp is called internal force value. It's called magic value, but Taoist priests changed it to power value. I heard that various countries have communication equipment similar to China's communication wooden plaques specially prepared for their own country's characteristic occupations. Although this equipment is cheaper than the magic ball And the effect is much better, but it can only be activated by MPs of the country's characteristic professions. Our country's communication wooden sign needs Dao power or internal power to activate it. Japan has a communication wooden whistle that requires endurance or demon power to activate it. India What kind of messenger bronze man is this? It requires telekinesis or faith value to stimulate it. Anyway, it is only for special professions. We warriors, mages and other common professions can only use magic balls."
"Fortunately, our guild has communication crystals. But what about those who don't have money to buy a magic ball?"
"In addition to the magic ball, there are many things that can send messages, such as wedding rings. Get married in the game. The couple can get a pair of wedding rings. They can use that to communicate with each other. Currently, this is the most powerful communication tool and does not consume any money. Magic power does not limit the transmission distance. As long as there is no magic shielding area, it can be transmitted to all areas, but it is only limited to couples and cannot be used by ordinary people. In addition to some scattered special communication equipment, some creatures can also transmit messages. In addition, a new one has appeared. In the post office unit, they will use magic circles to deliver letters to the target city and then use owls to deliver the letters to everyone. This method is cheaper and has a wide range. The disadvantage is that it is slow and the letter may be lost on the way. If If you are in an ancient tomb or a dangerous area, sending messages will almost 100% fail. I heard that some players seem to have special skills for sending messages, and by the way, the mage captain Wuhun seems to have this skill."
Soulless is the name of Ah Wei's game. There seems to be a postman profession among his auxiliary professions. Does this also have skills? Ignore him, let's get down to business first. "In that case, you should ask everyone to find King Chuang immediately, and you must be quick."
The girl immediately said: "Then can you hang up first and I'll contact each fleet."
"Oh, good place."
After I cut off the communication, a communication request for connection came to our side shortly after. When the screen lit up, it turned out to be King Chuang. "Boss, are you looking for me?" King Chuang stood wet in front of the crystal screen.
"Holy shit? What happened to you? Did you fall into the sea?"
"We are fighting against the little Japanese gunboat, and a shell just fell next to us. The sea water rushed up to the deck, and it gave me a chill." As if to confirm what King Chuang said, as soon as he finished speaking, someone came outside There was a loud noise and the screen shook for a long time. Chuang Wang looked at the side of the screen and shouted: "Haha, *** Sedum, is it hit by a torpedo? I tell you to rush forward! Over there, tell the third echelon to concentrate their firepower to sink the Sedum... What? No shells? You ask me if there are no shells, retreat to the back and look for the supply ship. Oh, by the way. Where is the supply ship? Blue Shield, where is our supply ship?"
King Chuang on the screen was busy there, and it seemed that he was already in a fierce battle with Little Japan. After waiting for a long time, King Chuang was finally free. "Boss, what's going on?"
"I found a Japanese camouflage fleet pretending to be our Chinese ship to sneak attack on the Americans. Now the Americans misunderstand that it was us Chinese. If we don't expose the Japanese underground, our reputation will be ruined. Although we are not afraid of offending the Americans, we can You can’t take the blame for the Japanese either!”
"What you're saying is that even if we want to rob the Americans, we have to do it ourselves. It's not okay if Japan robs us. When are you going to deal with this fleet?"
"Now."
"Now?" King Chuang looked at the sea. "I'm not done yet!"
"How much is left?"
"There are also eleven Japanese warships and seven cargo ships."
"What did the cargo ship pull?"
"Some wood and iron ore."
"No more. Sink the cargo ship, don't worry about the warships, and withdraw from the battle immediately. Assemble the fleet in the shortest possible time, and all available warships must come out."
King Chuang asked in surprise: "Why do you need so many ships? How many ships does the Japanese fleet have?"
"The main purpose this time is not to fight against Japan. Our purpose is to show our strength to the Americans. To deal with the Americans, we should not only let them know the benefits of cooperation, but also let them understand the harm of going against us. It is as simple as seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages. Once this is revealed, do you think the Americans will still oppose us?"
"It makes sense. I'm going to gather the battleships right now. By the way, do you want to call the alliance guilds too? It's just a show anyway. If you want to show it, make it bigger."
"Good idea." I nodded and said to Chuang Wang: "You might as well find a few more game reporters and other players to prepare to write a few follow-up reports, but now we have to keep them secret. Wait until we surround Little Japan. Reporting has officially started. When the time comes, we will post the story of Japan’s fake warships on the forum and turn them into celebrities.”
After arranging the work on both sides, the rest is my work. The fleets on both sides are rushing here quickly, and my job is to induce the Japanese not to return to Japan and dock. With the few warships I have on hand, it is definitely hopeless to fight against the Japanese camouflage fleet. The images recorded by the Tower of Babel show that the Japanese camouflage fleet has more than 700 warships, and they are all high-end large warships.
The Japanese themselves also know that Americans are not easy to deal with, so they dare not be too careless. The scale of the seven hundred warships is to destroy the ambushing American fleet in a very short time and evacuate quickly, so that the Americans can only know from the mouths of the sailors hanging back that a warship flying a Chinese flag attacked them. But there was no chance of catching them. Although I don't like Japanese people. But you must not think that the Japanese are stupid just because you don't like them. It is a serious mistake to underestimate the enemy's strength.
The Japanese camouflage fleet has more than 700 warships with good combat capabilities. Behind them are more than a hundred supply ships of their own and more than a hundred American cargo ships they have stolen, which means the total fleet is in the thousands. There are only two large warships and a dozen medium-sized warships on my side. There are about thirty small warships. In addition, there are five cargo ships that are not carrying cargo. This warship, let alone fight, has little chance of delaying it.
After much deliberation, it seems that our small number of ships cannot contain the enemy's fleet anyway. But it's a different story if they turn around themselves. I quickly decided that instead of blocking the enemy, it would be better to lure the enemy and let the Japanese turn around on their own.
Under my command, the fleet quickly caught up with the Japanese warships. With the help of the Tower of Babel satellite system, we could track them beyond the Japanese's visual range. After our fleet caught up with the Japanese fleet, it began to circle in front of them along the outside of their reconnaissance circle. The warships in our guild are all relatively fast. Although the five cargo ships are not designed to be very fast, they are now empty ships and can run quite quickly.
After arriving in front of the Japanese fleet, we continued to move forward for a certain distance and then turned around and pretended to be a fleet heading from the direction of China to the United States.
"Zhen Hong, go and notify the five transport ships to fill them with water."
"Inject water?"
"If you don't fill the boat with more water, the waterline is so high, everyone will know that it is empty. We have to trick the Japanese into thinking that we are fully loaded, so that we can lure them all over."
"That makes sense, I'll make arrangements right away."
Zhenhong went to arrange watering, and I also have to make arrangements here. First, open the Phoenix Dragon Space and ask the Tyrannosaurus Knight to help take out all the magic crystals and precious jewelry stored in it. Fortunately, I usually don’t like to organize things, so Fenglong Space has everything.
We got a lot of wooden boxes from under the cargo ship and put all the magic crystals into one of the boxes. The other boxes were filled with messy garbage. It's just for weighting anyway. After the boxes were full, we piled the boxes on the side of the boat and tied them with ropes to fix them to the side of the boat.
On the surface, all the cargo ship decks are filled with boxes. In fact, only a circle of boxes that can be seen from the outside is made up of wooden frames. We simply don't have that many boxes, so we have to use this method. In order to express the terrain, we also poured some more water under the deck to make the hull draft very deep. Looks like overload.
The box containing the magic crystal was placed in the corner of the top floor. We all knew its location, and we were just waiting to fool little Japan. The fleet prepared to turn and then drove towards the Japanese camouflage fleet.
Because we were driving face to face, we quickly came into sight of each other. Little Japan’s camouflaged fleet still flies the Chinese flag. But the guild flag is a flag we have never seen before. The lookout on the Japanese ship also quickly discovered our ship. The lookout quickly rushed to the flagpole and shouted loudly. After a while, an old friend I was very familiar with appeared on the bridge railing below the observation deck. This person was Masamoto Matsumoto, the president of the Black Dragon Club.
"What happened?" Masamoto Matsumoto asked the lookout hand.
The lookout finger points to the sea. "The fleet of the Frost Rose Alliance."
When Matsumoto Masamoto heard the name of the Frost Rose Alliance, he looked towards the sea nervously as if he was electrocuted, but he soon realized that such a distance could not be seen with the naked eye. So he then asked the watchman. "How many ships are there? How far away are they?"
"There are about thirty or forty ships, and some of them are blocked at the back, so I can't see clearly. It seems to be just a small fleet, with only two large ships in total. The rest are very ordinary, and there are five cargo ships. Looking at the waterline, it seems There is quite a lot of pretending. We are still more than a hundred nautical miles away from them."
Masamoto Matsumoto immediately turned around and ordered to the people on the bridge: "Inform the fleet to slow down."
"Yes, the fleet is slowing down."
The Japanese fleet slowed down and we immediately began to slow down, and both sides discovered each other. If I want to act, I have to act realistically. Both parties slow down to show that they are wary of each other, so as to ensure safety. I ordered the naval guns to be adjusted to aim at the direction of the Japanese camouflage fleet. This is also a basic safety measure.
As the distance between the two parties gets closer. I clearly found that the Japanese fleet was moving towards us intentionally or unintentionally. I ordered my fleet to move aside. Try not to cross paths with the other party. After the distance got closer, I ordered the flag bearer to signal to the other party which guild they belonged to.
In the Japanese fleet, the ship Matsumoto Masa was on has moved to the periphery of the fleet, deliberately leaning against us in the hope of getting a closer look. The flag bearer suddenly congratulated Matsumoto: "The other party asked us which guild we belong to? They said they had never seen such a large fleet in China."
"Tell them that we are the merger of several medium-sized guilds on the seaside. Recently, a big company wants to sponsor us. So we bought a lot of boats at once."
After the flag-bearer finished sending the flag, he congratulated Matsumoto again: "The other party said our boat was very strange and asked us which shipyard we bought it from."
Masamoto Matsumoto thought for a while and said: "Tell them that we have many ships. We don't buy them in one place, but buy them separately from shipyards in various places."
After a while, the flag bearer said again: "The other party said that they are from the Frost Rose Alliance. Their shipbuilding industry is very developed. They told us that if we order ships in the future, we can contact them. They will give preferential prices and the quality is high."
Masamoto Matsumoto smiled. But he suddenly realized something, and quickly went to the bridge and took out a telescope to look at us. After a few seconds, he took down the telescope as if he had seen something incredible and rubbed his eyes desperately before continuing to pick up the telescope.
Tanaka Shota, who was standing next to Matsumoto Masaga, felt strange about Matsumoto Masaga's behavior: "What did you see?"
"It's Zi Ri. Zi Ri is on that ship."
"What?" Shota Tanaka snatched Matsumoto Masamoto's telescope and started looking at it. "It's really that Chinese pig! Wait, what is he doing?"
Matsumoto Masaru himself took another telescope and started looking. "He seemed to be directing his men to secure the boxes."
At this time, I got a message from Grandma posted outside the side of Masamoto Matsumoto's boat. Masamoto Matsumoto was looking at me. After making sure that their attention was focused enough, I used spiritual contact to contact the little dragon girl who had been waiting underwater for a long time. The sea surface shook and our boat shook. An unsecured box located at the very corner "accidentally" fell off and rolled into the sea. The box hit the ship's string, and the specially treated box immediately fell to pieces. A box of magic crystals sprinkled into the sea like stars.
I felt distressed for this box of magic crystals for a long time. Although I had asked Xiao Longnu and Lucky to prepare them in the water, they collected the magic crystals as soon as they were in the water. But that's definitely missing a piece or two. I can only think that this is the cost of luring little Japan. Fishing always requires bait. I hate that the child cannot catch the wolf, and I hate that the magic crystal cannot catch little Japan.
The eyes of Masa Matsumoto and Shota Tanaka almost popped out of their heads. He originally just saw that our ship was very full. But he didn't think carefully about what we were pretending to be. The scene of rummaging through the suitcases and putting them into the sea made the two of them fully understand what the five boats were carrying.
In order to convince these two foxes that the box was indeed a real magic crystal, as soon as the box fell into the water, I jumped in with a dozen crew members. Because it is magic crystal, our desperate efforts to salvage it not only do not appear artificial, but appear more real. Masamoto Matsumoto believed that if such a box of magic crystals really fell into the sea, he would definitely jump in and salvage it without any worries.
After doing the whole show, the sailors and I returned to the ship one after another. Of course, I was the last to come up. After getting on the boat, I yelled at the sailors. Of course, Masamoto Matsumoto couldn't hear my voice, so I could only use as exaggerated movements as possible to show that I was swearing loudly. Why! It’s not easy to be a leader these days, and you have to work part-time as an actor if you have nothing to do.
Masa Matsumoto and Shota Tanaka put down their binoculars and glanced at each other. Both parties wiped the saliva from the corners of their mouths and nodded to each other. Even fools knew that they had decided to commit a robbery. After getting Aina's report, I asked Aina to come back immediately and ordered the fleet to immediately start moving away from the Japanese camouflage fleet, and made as if to turn around and run towards China.
Masamoto Matsumoto thought we were exposed because of the goods. So realizing the danger and planning to escape, they immediately started moving towards China to block our retreat. In this way, we had no way to choose a relatively short route back to China but had to cross the vast Pacific Ocean. Matsumoto Masaga believes that it is easier to deal with us in the Pacific, but once we escape back to China, it will be difficult for them to attack us.
In fact, what he thought was what I meant. I just wanted to lure Matsumoto Masako back to the Pacific Ocean. Those Americans who were outraged were waiting to find someone to take revenge.
Seeing that the back road was blocked, we immediately started running towards the Pacific Ocean. The Japanese planned to rely on their own ships to surround us, but what they didn't expect was that our ships were very fast. Only three sides were covered. Now the speed of both sides is equal. As long as they want to encircle us in the middle, they will be separated by taking the curve, but if they don't encircle us, they can't block us.
Matsumoto Masako was circling around anxiously on his boat. I was anxious myself. I underestimated the speed of Japanese ships. The warships in our fleet are faster than them, but after the cargo ship was filled with water, its draft increased and its speed dropped significantly, but it actually kept the same speed. If we keep running at the angle of this gap, we will turn to the Arctic Ocean and will not encounter the American fleet. However, if we turn directly in the direction of the United States, we are likely to be intercepted by Japanese warships. Although the Japanese did not dare to fire for fear of blowing the magic crystal into the sea, but it was another matter to be approached and turn into hand-to-hand combat.
In desperation, I could only inform the guild to use magic arrows to help open the way. We must blow up a gap in the encirclement so that we can turn to the direction facing the United States. The divine arrow launchers on top of Essinger all began to turn towards the east, and then a row of cruise missiles took off in the suspicious eyes of most players.
In the cargo ship control room, I looked at the Japanese ship behind me and prayed that the Americans and Essinger's fleet would arrive soon. Our ship couldn't withstand a round of Japanese bombardment. The communication crystal screen suddenly lit up, and King Chuang appeared on the screen. "What did you do, boss? The fight started so soon? We are still on the road. We have just bypassed the Sea of Japan and are heading there."
"How did you know we were starting a fight?"
"Damn it, a dozen (one dozen equals twelve) missiles just passed over my head. I don't even know, I have to not see them!"
"Little Japan has surrounded my boat. I need to find a way out."
"You're ruthless, you're the first person to use cruise missiles to clear a path."
The speed of the divine arrow was very fast. The twelve missiles flew towards the center of the Pacific Ocean at a height of seven meters above the sea. Behind the missiles, twelve high waves were raised on the sea level by the wake of the divine arrow. The ships that saw them along the way were frightened. No one expected to see this thing on the sea.
I was just like Head of State Seratis talking about how they would run away if something happened. Suddenly Xiaochun looked at the sky and said: "Here we come."
"What's coming?" Head of State Seratis asked in confusion.
I immediately looked at the sea surface knowingly, and after activating the Star Eyes, I saw twelve white bright spots dragging the white waves rushing over at an incredible speed.
