"......What?!"
"you!"
The Viking warrior who was holding the battle axe and looked a little hesitant, his face flushed red after hearing the words of the gray-haired black magician.
Of course, if he were to fight against such magic, he would have almost no chance of winning, and magicians generally would not challenge warriors.
But the current situation is special.
Even though the Viking warrior guessed that this might be the one-sided statement of the gray-haired black magician, he could do nothing about it.
Except for a few Viking warriors, most of them supported her words.
"That's right! Olaf should be the new king!"
"Olaf, the new king! Bloody Axe, Olaf!"
"If you want to challenge Olaf, you must wait until today is over!"
"Who is for, who is against!"
Many Vikings expressed their opinions, and soon, Olaf became the new king of Norway with the support of everyone.
As for the few Viking warriors who originally planned to take this opportunity to challenge Olaf, they could only give a hypocritical smile at this moment.
They naturally knew that if they challenged Olaf again tomorrow, they would have no chance of winning.
Olaf's fighting skills and terrifying strength are obvious to all and cannot be doubted.
"New King! New King!"
Surrounded by the crowd, Olaf raised the corners of his mouth with a wry smile.
"Let's... leave the waters of Holy Egypt first."
"Lest...the night be long and full of dreams."
He spoke slowly, and then Olaf's order was passed to the captains of all Viking longships.
But those Viking warriors who were very dissatisfied with Olaf becoming the new king stepped forward at this time.
"Our king, but our late king Harald was killed in battle just now. Now is the time for revenge!"
"This is the sea area of Holy Egypt, a long way from our island."
"We can take this opportunity to plunder those merchant ships still in the waters of Holy Egypt! Take revenge!"
Without waiting for Olaf to speak, the Viking warrior turned around and began to incite the other Viking warriors.
"Viking warriors!"
"Our former king was killed by the Holy Pharaoh of Holy Egypt, and the remains of many of our warriors remain forever in a foreign land!"
"Are we going to leave like this?"
"We are the descendants of Odin! Don't you want to return today's humiliation to Holy Egypt?"
Many Viking warriors swallowed their saliva, and Olaf could naturally see the desire for revenge in the eyes of other Viking warriors.
Of course, Olaf himself also wanted revenge, but he felt that they knew very little about Holy Egypt, otherwise, they would not have suffered such a great defeat today.
Just when Olaf was about to persuade or even give an order, the captain of a Viking longship on the far side raised his voice.
"Ship spotted on the east side!"
"Get ready! Get ready!"
As soon as he said this, the Viking warriors immediately turned their eyes to the place he mentioned.
Sure enough, many ships appeared in the distance.
However, the appearance of those ships made them widen their eyes slightly.
“What is that?!”
"Whose ship is that?!"
The sight of those ships surprised many Viking warriors.
Of course, that was because, after all these years of fighting at sea, this was the first time they had seen a ship of this kind.
You should know that a Viking longship is a ship that can be used for war, plunder, exploration, trade, and immigration.
This long boat is about 15-30 meters long, with a crew of 20-80 people, and mainly relies on sails and oars to move.
Simply put, this is an extremely flexible ship that can penetrate deep into inland rivers and easily land on the beach.
What the Vikings see now is the [Four-Section Sailboat] created by Lin Ke in the civilization panel.
This type of sailboat is 20-40 meters long and can carry 50-100 people. Larger ships can carry even more.
Unlike the Viking longships, the [quadcoach] relied entirely on sails and even had a huge cargo hold.
Simply put, the [quadriplane] is a true ocean-going vessel that can sail across oceans. In the Mediterranean, the [quadriplane] can truly demonstrate its advantages.
This place is far away from the coast and away from small rivers.
Therefore, the [Four-Section Sailboat] was now approaching the Vikings' longship at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Even Olaf, who had fought his way out of danger several times and became the new king, was surprised.
His eyes widened.
"What...what kind of ship is that!"
"Why is it so huge?"
"No oars? But a huge sail?"
As for the other Viking warriors, they were even more shocked.
After all, they could at least tell by the size of the ships that they were definitely not merchant ships.
"Lord Bloodaxe! We have more longships, and while their ships are larger, we have the upper hand!"
"Whose ship is that? Could it be a ship of the Greek Federation?"
However, no one could clearly identify which civilization or kingdom those ships came from.
They had heard of the Greek triremes, and those Greek warships were also very huge.
However, the Greek warships needed to rely on hundreds of oarsmen to row together. On their triremes, the oarsmen were under the ship, and the long oars served as their power system.
But right now, the fleet in the distance didn't even have a single oar.
"It could be Greek!"
"Order...Order the soldiers to prepare for ramming and boarding!"
Olaf was giving orders, and what he meant by ramming preparation was preparing to meet the impact of the enemy's large ships.
He had heard about the Greek way of fighting, where the Greeks would strengthen their bows and then use the hard bows to ram the sides of enemy ships.
Just one strike is enough to cause serious damage to the enemy, or even silence it.
Boarding preparation refers to approaching the enemy ship and then jumping onto the enemy ship to engage in hand-to-hand combat.
Of course, this kind of hand-to-hand combat is naturally the Vikings' strong point, and few people can defeat the Vikings in boarding combat.
After Olaf gave the order, all the Viking longships began to adjust their direction and prepare to meet their enemies.
"Helmsman! Adjust the heading!"
"Keep the bow to the wind!"
"Oarsmen! Battle rhythm, row!"
"Full starboard!"
"Archers, string your bows!"
The Vikings responded quickly and began to return to their respective posts, while the Viking longships began to turn around and respond to the approaching fleets in those positions.
However, the Viking warriors soon discovered something unusual.
"That! That is!"
"That's the flag of the desert and the Nile!"
