"The Starlight Continent is the lower limit of the Star Alliance. The higher the lower limit, the better the Star Alliance can develop."
After quickly reading the report from the Starry Empire, Sunan then picked up the report from the Starlight Academy.
The first one is the report on the magic ship.
The development of the magic ship was ordered by Sunan himself.
It's not only because of the need to develop the Rainbow Sea, but also because of the high probability of encountering naval battles when the Star Alliance invades other planes in the future, so preparations in this regard are made in advance to be prepared for a rainy day.
"The three-level classification system is sufficient in the Starlight Continent."
Sunan nodded with satisfaction.
Starlight Academy is still working on the third-level magic ship. It will probably take quite some time to actually manufacture it and get it to the point where it can be put into practical use.
Although it is possible to create a third-level magic ship through synthesis, Sunan does not intend to do so.
After all, the cost of synthesis is much higher than artificial production.
If you want to form a navy, it is obviously better to create it artificially.
Let the college do the research on its own; he can't always do everything himself.
After reading the report from Starlight Academy, the only thing left was the Star Alliance's report.
It’s mainly about the development progress of Rainbow Sea.
However, after reading the contents of the report, Sunan couldn't help but show a strange expression on his face.
"Divine revelation?"
Su Nan looked thoughtful.
The plane barrier has not been restored yet, and it is impossible for the gods outside to reach into the Starlight Continent.
The previous Spider Queen was a special case. She used the dark magic tree in the Black Forest to infiltrate her tentacles into the Starlight Continent.
Could there be another 'Dark Demon Tree' in the Rainbow Sea?
This possibility exists, but it is not high.
In comparison, Sunan is more inclined to believe that the so-called divine revelation is just a disguise of a certain creature, which is used to manipulate the Siren to achieve a certain purpose.
“That’s really interesting.”
Su Nan's eyes flickered.
The Falling Star City is located within the Rainbow Sea, but it so happens that the so-called divine revelation appeared in Rainbow City.
It made it hard for him not to connect the two.
But no matter whether the two are related or not, and no matter whether it is a real god or not, he will not allow the other party to do trouble on his territory.
To find out the truth, we just need to capture the leader of the Siren clan and interrogate him.
With a plan in mind, Sunan directly approved the report and sent someone to convey it to Rainbow Bay.
Just as Sunan's order was on its way to Rainbow Bay, the war between the Star Alliance and the ocean tribes had already broken out.
On the day when the magic ship and the octopus puppet arrived at Rainbow Bay, Sherman and others brought reinforcements to the artificial island.
Since the three artificial islands are far apart from each other, after some discussion, everyone decided to first move into one of the islands with the fastest construction progress, called Coral Island.
The name comes from the colorful coral reefs located four or five kilometers away from the island.
Colorful coral is a rare material that can be used to make potions.
This is also the main reason why the Star Alliance chose to reclaim land nearby, so that it would be easier to collect colorful corals.
In the Star Alliance's plan, the area of the coral island is estimated to be between 1,500 and 2,000 square kilometers.
However, due to the interference of deep-sea Nagas and Sirens, the coral island has only been filled to less than 200 square kilometers so far.
Everyone unanimously decided to complete the construction of the coral island first, and then start building the other two islands.
As long as the coral island is built, the golem army can move in and build complete defense facilities.
By then, even if the deep-sea Nagas and the Sirens attack again, they will be in trouble.
After all, the number of supporting magic ships is limited. Instead of dispersing them around three different islands, it is better to concentrate the troops and garrison one island.
In this way, when facing an enemy attack, you don't have to just passively defend yourself, you can completely launch a counterattack.
It turned out that their consideration was not wrong.
On the fifth day after the reinforcements entered the Coral Island, the deep-sea Nagas and the Sirens attacked again.
The five first-level magic ships patrolling the waters around the coral island discovered the approaching sea monster at the first opportunity.
There was no so-called humanitarian advance warning. When the incoming sea monster crossed the warning line, the five magic ships opened fire at the same time.
Chi chi chi! More than thirty magic cannons fired beams from the sky, penetrating the sea surface and hitting the sea monsters underwater, piercing their heads.
The magic cannon is a genuine magic technology product developed by Starlight Academy. It uses magic stone as energy and is extremely powerful.
In an instant, dozens of sea monster corpses appeared underwater, and the blood dyed the surrounding sea red.
At the same time, shrill alarms sounded over the coral island.
Sherman and others who were on the island rushed out at the first opportunity. When they arrived above the coast, five first-level magic ships had already wiped out all the invading sea monsters.
"It's the Sirens. Every time they attack, they will first control the sea monsters to attack." Andrea said solemnly.
As if to confirm her words, the sound of conch shells suddenly came from a distance, faintly mixed with beautiful singing.
Dozens of huge humpback whales suddenly broke through the surface of the sea and appeared in sight.
And on their broad backs are hundreds of sirens.
More Sirens holding tridents and riding headhunting sharks appeared from behind the humpback whale, staring at the magic ship with eager eyes.
At the same time, a shrill alarm was heard from the other side of the island.
"It should be the deep-sea Nagas. They often attack from different directions separately from the Sirens, increasing the pressure on us to defend the island." Andrea's face was heavy.
Fleming sighed and said, "They are obviously hostile enemies, but they can unite against us."
"After all, we are outsiders." Sheman looked calmly at Corey, "Corey, you and Fleming will be responsible for dealing with the deep-sea Naga, is that ok?"
Corey nodded without saying a word, turned around and flew to the other side of the island without any hesitation.
Fleming hurriedly followed.
After watching the two people go away, Xie Man withdrew his gaze and looked towards the Siren rushing towards the island. He took a deep breath and his expression became serious.
"Let's do it. We need to hurt these guys at once so that they won't dare to attack Coral Island again. This way, we will have an easier time in the future."
Atil and Tatiana nodded indifferently.
The three people's bodies instantly lit up with dazzling magical light and they rushed towards the battlefield.
As soon as the alarm sounded, the magic ships anchored at the port set sail immediately. Two second-level magic ships and three first-level magic ships sailed straight towards the Siren.
After the reunion, the ten magic ships lined up in a row, forming a solid line of defense on the sea, blocking the path of the Siren's attack like a tall metal wall.
When the Sirens launched their charge, the first thing that greeted them was intensive artillery fire.
In the past, when the Sirens charged towards the island, they would also be attacked by long-range attacks such as bows and spells. However, with the huge body of the humpback whale as a shield, these long-range attacks could not cause effective damage to them at all.
Now they are planning to use the same old trick again, but the subsequent developments caught them off guard.
The ten magic ships had a total of sixty-eight magic cannons. With just one salvo, the three humpback whales in the front were shot into sieves. Blood gushed out like a fountain, turning the surroundings into a red sea in an instant.
If that were the case, the humpback whales could still rely on their numbers to withstand the artillery fire and approach the magic ship.
But this beautiful dream was quickly shattered as the main gun spell turrets of the two second-level magic ships opened fire.
Buzz! Two thick rays instantly crossed a distance of more than a thousand meters, penetrated the humpback whale's head, and then penetrated out from its tail, bringing up a fountain of dazzling scarlet blood.
This powerful sea monster, which was at the top of the ocean food chain, was killed instantly without any resistance.
Buzz! Buzz! The two spell turrets fired at a frequency of once every five or six seconds, and beams of light shot out one after another, continuously harvesting the lives of humpback whales.
The double artillery fire hit each other, and dense rays intertwined into a net, covering the sea area in front of the magic ship, turning this thousand-meter sea area into a death zone.
In less than two minutes, more than thirty humpback whales were wiped out, their bloody corpses floating on the sea.
The Siren also paid the price of hundreds of deaths.
The remaining Sirens finally rushed through the realm of death and arrived in front of the magic ship, but when they looked up at the huge metal monster in front of them that was as big as a mountain, they felt like they had no idea where to start.
Ta-ta-ta! The sound of hurried footsteps suddenly came from the boat, as if some multi-legged creature was walking quickly.
Immediately afterwards, creatures that looked very similar to octopuses suddenly emerged from the deck, leaped, and splashed into the sea, creating large waves.
The sirens around subconsciously raised their spears and stabbed, but there was a crisp sound, as if they had stabbed something hard, and their knuckles were shaken and hurt a little.
"It's a puppet!" a Siren warned loudly.
The surrounding Sirens did not retreat upon hearing this, but instead rushed forward waving their tridents.
Previous experiences of fighting against the Covenant puppets taught them that these puppets would become very heavy once they entered the water and could be easily manipulated in the hands.
But they soon discovered how wrong they were.
Dense black tentacles broke through the water and attacked at such a fast speed that the Sirens could not react at all. They only felt a flash of black shadow in their vision, followed by a sharp pain in their heart.
Looking down, what caught my eye was a metal tentacle that penetrated deeply into my chest!
The Siren who survived the bombardment did not see the situation improve, but instead ushered in a new round of slaughter.
Faced with thousands of legendary puppets, the Siren was no match at all and was killed one after another by the metal tentacles.
This was a completely one-sided massacre!
The Sirens quickly collapsed and fled in all directions.
But soon, they found that their retreat was blocked.
A group of human knights riding on strange dragon-like creatures had somehow circled behind them, blocking their way of escape.
The knights who took the underwater breathing potion rode on the water dragons and began to hunt down the Sirens in the sea.
In the sky, Sherman, Artil and Tatiana specifically targeted the elite Sirens that looked more powerful.
From the beginning of the Siren's raid to the end of the war, the whole process lasted less than ten minutes.
The Covenant defeated the Sirens with ease.
The second half of the war was a completely one-sided pursuit and finale.
Andrea, who was watching the battle on the coast, was filled with amazement.
Whether it was the artillery attack of the magic ship or the fighting power of the octopus puppet and the water dragon knight, it made her eyes light up and she was amazed.
With magic ships and armies like these, as long as the scale is expanded, let alone guarding the island, rushing into the deep sea to wipe out the Sirens is not a delusion!
At the end of the battle, except for a few lucky ones who escaped, more than 2,000 Sirens were almost wiped out.
Even though the Sirens are known as the first intelligent race in the Rainbow Sea, such a huge loss is enough to cause them great pain.
The number of magic ships on the other side of the island was not as large as that on the front, but the offensive of the deep-sea Naga was also not as strong as that of the Sirens. Not long after the battle on Sherman's side ended, the war on the other side of the island also came to an end.
More than a thousand deep-sea Nagas were also almost wiped out.
After finally counting the losses, they found that they had only lost more than thirty octopus puppets.
The Water Dragon Knights suffered no casualties, only a few were slightly injured.
Only a few of the magic ships also suffered some damage, but they could be restored to their original state after some repairs.
Compared to the rich harvest, this loss is not worth mentioning! After the reunion, everyone had a happy smile on their faces.
"After this, the deep-sea Nagas and Sirens will no longer dare to underestimate us. At least in the short term, they will not come to invade the coral island again."
Sherman said with a smile, then changed the subject.
"But we can't let our guard down. If they come again, their attack will definitely be more fierce than this time. We have to be prepared."
Everyone nodded.
However, things went more smoothly than Sherman had expected.
Perhaps they were hurt so badly that the Sirens and Deep-sea Nagas did not attack the Coral Island again afterwards.
On the contrary, Sherman and others later took boats into the deep sea area for exploration several times, and they encountered the fighting Sirens and deep-sea Nagas.
For unknown reasons, the two races seemed to have given up on blocking the Covenant's expansion into the Rainbow Sea and instead began to attack each other.
In almost every battle, the Siren wins.
After winning, the Siren did not dare to attack the ship again, and dived into the sea without any reluctance and disappeared.
The Star Alliance's artificial island construction plan has thus entered a period of peaceful and tranquil development, and is progressing at a rapid pace.
In the year 1292 of the Astral Calendar, the Coral Island was completed.
The Star Alliance now has a new city-state called Coral City.
The first golem factory and the first shipyard in the Rainbow Sea were established in Coral City, and began to manufacture octopus puppets and magic ships with all their strength.
In the year 1293 of the Starlight Calendar, the construction of the Split Shell Island was completed and the Split Shell City was established.
In the 1294th year of the Starlight Calendar, Red Shrimp Island was completed and Red Shrimp City was established.
In the same year, Starlight Academy developed the first level 3 magic ship, which passed actual combat testing and was officially launched into Rainbow Bay.
Astral Calendar Year 1295, the Month of Resurrection (February).
The first fleet of the Star Alliance was established and named the First Fleet.
The Navy's First Fleet consists of five third-level magic ships, twenty-five second-level magic ships and two hundred and fifty first-level magic ships.
In the same year, there was the Thunderous Month (April).
The Navy's First Fleet entered the deep sea area and headed towards the sea area called the Blue Eye where the Sirens live.
War is imminent! (End of this chapter)
