Several months have passed since the first meeting of the Civilization Alliance. During this time, Lin Ke has supplied a large number of weapons and industrial products to the countries of the alliance to help them develop their nations.
All of this happened without the knowledge of the major powers.
The two camps, led by Bolívar and Philipp, were constantly locked in a standoff and had no time to pay attention to the actions of Saint Egypt.
Lin Ke, of course, did not provoke them. Instead, he took advantage of this precious opportunity to speed up the construction of tourist attractions and wonders in Holy Egypt.
Of course, the development of trade routes did not stop, and Lin Ke established trade relations with several small countries that had just joined the Civilization Alliance.
These are all things that can generate tourism revenue.
Lin Ke had a premonition that Holy Egypt was not far from the end of its cultural triumph.
Since Holy Egypt entered the World Conference and established the Organization of Civilizations, its fame has increased.
Lin Ke was also looking forward to seeing what kind of reward Holy Egypt would receive if it achieved victory through the cultural route.
Just as he was planning to continue developing trade and culture in an orderly manner until a cultural victory was achieved, bad news came from the coastline of Holy Egypt.
"Are you sure they're heading to Holy Egypt?" Lin Ke asked.
Arthas replied, “Your Majesty, I am absolutely certain that a large fleet of ships is approaching the coastline of Holy Egypt.”
"Moreover, they are different from the previous Spanish fleets; they are all armed and seem to be coming on strong."
Lin Ke frowned. Whenever he wanted to develop peacefully, these clueless people would always come knocking on his door.
He rose from his throne and said to Nantong, “Nantong, summon Ramses and Tefnut, let’s go to the coastline.”
"Yes, Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh."
Arthas led Lin Ke and the other two towards the coastline.
After several months of effort by Ramses, Tefnut finally regained some of her memories and remembered some things from the past.
But as a result, her personality became much quieter, and she no longer skipped and jumped around like before.
Upon arriving at the coastline, Lin Ke indeed saw a large fleet of ships lined up in a row, sailing menacingly toward the coast of Holy Egypt.
"What country's fleet are these?" Lin Ke squinted, examining the few small dots that appeared and disappeared on the sea. He really couldn't tell which country's ships they were.
This time, the other party directly crossed the outer edge of the waters off Holy Egypt and headed straight for the shore.
"It seems they want to officially start a war with our Holy Egypt." Lin Ke's eyes gradually turned cold.
"Prepare for battle!"
At his command, the navy of Holy Egypt and the sea monster cavalry of Atlantis moved at the same time.
They pushed four-section sailboats into the sea one by one, standing on them to keep watch for the enemy.
At the same time, small frigates were also put into service. They were arranged around the four sails and were responsible for escort, patrol, raids and other tasks.
The sailors worked quickly to load shells onto the ship and fill them into the magazines.
By now, Holy Egypt's use of gunpowder had reached an extremely high level.
Using explosives and catapults, they developed a weapon that could launch projectiles from a distance, called a bombardier.
This weapon has a range of over thirty meters, and any enemy entering its attack range will suffer devastating damage.
As the fleet drew closer, the Holy Egyptian navy placed torches beside the fuses, ready to be lit at any moment.
Those ships are now nearly thirty meters away from the Holy Egyptian naval forces.
The Holy Egyptian navy could no longer contain themselves and shouted, "Attention! Attention! You have entered Holy Egyptian waters. Please leave immediately!"
"Attention! Attention! You have entered the waters of Holy Egypt. Please leave immediately."
"Attention! Attention! You have entered the waters of Holy Egypt. Please leave immediately."
Even after the navy issued three warnings, the other party remained unresponsive.
The group exchanged glances, then spoke in unison, issuing the sternest warning.
"Please stop advancing, or we will launch an attack. Please stop advancing, or we will launch an attack."
However, the opposing fleet still showed no intention of stopping or leaving.
The naval officers turned to Lin Ke, seeking his opinion: "Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh?"
Lin Ke looked at the fleet with icy eyes and said calmly, "Order."
"Yes!" Upon receiving the order, everyone quickly placed the torches on the fuse, and the flames began to burn along the fuse, signaling that the explosives were about to be launched.
...
On the other side.
On the approaching fleet, Olaf led a large group of Viking pirates, passing by the surrounding large ships.
A Viking warrior exclaimed excitedly, “Excellent, Your Majesty! This time you have the support of the English Empire. Destroying Holy Egypt is a piece of cake!”
"They seemed to be warning us and saying they were going to launch an attack."
"Ignore them. They're just a desert civilization. They were only lucky to beat us last time."
"This time, they are facing the most powerful England ever!"
Olaf sat on the boat, gazing at the fleet of ships from Holy Egypt.
He wore a confident expression, as if he were already prepared for the scene of the Holy Egyptian navy's crushing defeat and escape.
The reason he was so confident and dared to launch a second attack on Holy Egypt was because he had the support of one of the most powerful countries in the world at the time—England.
He had investigated carefully and found that Holy Egypt, as a recently emerging civilization, was indeed quite powerful, and had even joined the World Conference and then withdrew.
However, these are nothing compared to England's navy, which is world-renowned for its power, even surpassing that of Spain and Portugal.
At the last world conference, England did not attend, citing important domestic matters to attend to, but the major powers at the conference dared not voice any objections.
Thinking of this, Olaf laughed confidently again: "Hahaha, Holy Egypt, now it's time for you to pay back the damage you've done to our Viking warriors."
"Our feud with Norway will end today."
"Bang!" Just then, something landed on the deck.
"What is this?" Olaf looked at the cylindrical object on the deck with a puzzled expression.
There was a burning wire at the top of that thing.
"Buzz buzz buzz." Suddenly, a sense of unease welled up inside him: "Watch out!"
"Boom!" The next second, the explosives detonated, and the entire sailboat was blasted into pieces.
