Chapter 1273: Chapter 1273: Reality Chapter 1273: Chapter 1273: Reality The female pirate looked toward the distant Black Dragon Queen and suddenly slammed the gunwale, “Damn it, send out aerial forces to support the Black Dragon Queen. Although she’s strong, she’s also a big target. It’s too dangerous for her without any other aerial cover.”

Following her order, players riding giant eagles began to take flight. Since they lacked aerial riding skills, they were firmly fixed on the backs of the gryphons, only able to toss hand grenades and such.

Then, hundreds of fighter planes followed, the standard configuration of Starfire’s fleet.

However, Starfire’s support was still too late.

Suddenly, a chained-spear shot out from a medium warship, catching the Black Dragon Queen off guard; the spear hooked into her, and blood poured forth.

But before the Black Dragon Queen could react, other ships also launched their chained-spears, hooking onto various parts of her body, even both wings.

She immediately lost balance and plunged downward, followed by a barrage of cannon fire from several ships. The Black Dragon Queen was instantly killed by the concentrated bombardment.

Those from the United Army who witnessed this cheered, while they also saw Starfire deploy their air forces. Many flying pets rose from the United Army ranks, and a fierce battle ensued in the sky.

But their air forces, consisting only of various pets, were clearly outmatched by Starfire’s side. The fighter planes were, of course, formidable in firepower, and even the restricted gryphon knights could still manage with crossbow arrows.

“Commander, the enemy’s piranhas are too numerous; our casualties are mounting,” a murloc reported as it climbed aboard the warship.

“What about those corrosive sea monsters?” the female pirate asked.

“The monsters have been the primary hunting targets and have been nearly exterminated. Even any stragglers can’t cause us much harm anymore,” the murloc quickly replied.

The female pirate pondered for a moment, “Signal the order, the wraith troop is to board nearby warships and prepare for combat. Black Thorn, move to where the piranhas are most concentrated.”

Once again, horns resounded underwater, and the wraith troop began an orderly retreat. Many ropes appeared on the warships, which the wraith troop grabbed to be pulled aboard.

The leader of the Union Guild laughed heartily, “Did you see that? Even though they sent out murlocs and nagas, what good did it do? They were still repelled by my tactics.”

“That’s not right. That warship is their command ship, why is it at the forefront?”

“You worry too much. Prairie Fire’s two powerful pets have been dealt with by me, and you needn’t concern yourself with the rest. As long as your guild cooperates, the victory of this naval battle will eventually be ours. Demon-Powered Battleships, oh, each of our two guilds will have one. We might not dominate the seas, but we’ll certainly stand out among players. After this, average pirates won’t dare to mess with us,” the leader of the Union Guild gazed at the demon-powered warships with shining eyes.

The other leader was similarly enticed. Demon-powered battleships were no small matter.

At that moment, Black Thorn had charged to the forefront, and a school of piranhas had gathered there, vigorously rushing toward Starfire’s fleet.

The female pirate spoke coldly, “Energy ready, fill the energy crystal to replenish power at any time.”

The female pirate chanted a complex incantation, and as she did, countless dense and bristling thorny vines grew over Black Thorn.

The vines, as if alive, turned the entire Black Thorn into a massive plant-like monster., its countless vines thrashing wildly.

Especially underwater, as the vines spread uncontrollably, piranhas were impaled one after the other, and the sea became even more chaotic.

Black Thorn gradually turned blood red under the fearful gazes of everyone, as if it had soaked up enough blood.

“Gryphon fleet, follow me and kill.”

Black Thorn did not slow down and moved like a fortress on the go, with countless vines dancing, pushing the speed of Black Thorn to an extreme.

The rest of Starfire’s fleets also picked up speed.

Boom, tat-tat…

Ignoring the sacrificial local warships, Black Thorn rammed directly into a warship, splitting it in half, while many vines shot out like arrows.

Neighboring warships were perforated by the vines like tofu, and a large amount of seawater poured in.

“Damn it, to think they’d dare to penetrate deep into our lines alone, sink that ship for me,” the president of the Mang Guild shouted.

A moment later, the sky was ablaze with cannon fire, and the warships that could aim at Black Thorn opened fire in succession.

Black Thorn too revealed its ferocious cannons, not intending to dodge in the slightest, and returned fire under the barrage from the enemy.

Black Thorn was upwind, at a sufficient distance, but many of the enemy’s cannon shots could only fall into the water.

Still, numerous artillery shells hit Black Thorn, causing an energy shield to appear, but after just three rounds of cannon fire, during which Black Thorn destroyed three medium warships and five small warships of the enemy, the energy shield also shattered.

A large number of artillery shells caused Black Thorn’s vines to break and fly off, but because Black Thorn had broken through the enemy’s lines, it also bought time for the Starfire fleet.

Having the upper hand and superior in both artillery shells and cannons, Starfire’s warships were not inferior to NPC fleets, because Starfire bought real warships through connections and constantly upgraded them. Of course, this referred to medium and small ones, as players were still unable to obtain large warships.

The other guilds were not so lucky; their so-called warships were actually just armed merchant ships, which were significantly inferior to real military warships.

In the first round of collective fire, a large number of the enemy’s warships sank, while Starfire’s ships were only damaged, with no signs of any being sunk.

“Damn, are you satisfied now? This is the fleet you said could defeat Starfire,” another guild president said with an extremely ugly expression.

Of course, it was just a complaint; they had heard that Starfire’s fleet was better than theirs, but they didn’t expect too much of a difference until they experienced the real combat and understood the true gap.

As ships sank, a large number of players fell into the water, and the remaining piranhas quickly changed targets.

The president of the Mang Guild, his face gloomy, roared: “The second line of defense intercept the Starfire fleet and engage in boarding combat. The rest of the fleet, change course and follow me in assaulting Starfire’s port. Once we land, summon the army and with our Union Guild attacking from both sides, Starfire will ultimately fail.”

The head-on clash made both guilds come to terms with reality, realizing that defeating the Starfire fleet wasn’t as simple as taking out two of Li Yao’s pets.

“Commander, aren’t we pursuing them?”

“No need, let’s slowly devour those they’ve left behind. Aim for boarding battles as much as possible, capture their ships, and also their main force. Once they land, we will take over; as warships they are not qualified, but more than enough for merchant ships, allowing my trade fleet to expand once again. Moreover, the Administrative Officer is not to be trifiled with.”…
