Chapter 1029 Powerful Assassin
Because Xuanyuan Xing got a pair of ordinary skeleton archers' bows and arrows, he launched a long-distance guerrilla attack in the woods with the zombie shooter and the necromancer! Finally, Xuanyuan Xing won in full swing! Shooted the necromancer! The team was no longer harassed by the negative spells of the necromancer. Then Zhang Fan acted in one go, risking the death of being shot to death by the zombie shooter, blocking the vital points with a reverse scale shield, and with the cooperation of Xuanyuan Xing, he killed the zombie shooter in melee!
In this battle, almost everyone of the team members were injured. Fortunately, the headless knight was trapped, and no one killed him immediately. Therefore, the barrier of the alien space was opened. After getting full rest, Zhang Fan healed everyone's injuries. Finally, he used karma fire to purify the headless knight! In this battle, the team obtained a batch of weapons and props. Everyone found that all weapons would not disappear with the monsters in the alien space. After Xuanyuan Xing had several bows and arrows with real damage, his support for the team rose to a very high level. With an excellent long-range shooter, these monsters breaking the boundary are not worth fearing!
The bone staff and a book of the Dead dropped by the Necromancer benefited the Book Demon and Akan. Under the cracking of the Book Demon, Akan, who already had a foundation in Taoism, learned some basic magic tricks in the Book Demon, but Akan cannot learn to use it at present. The only spell that Akan could use in the real world is the "Wrath of the Gods", which is still inherited from the Necromancer Oliver. However, Akan had not used this ability when these monsters in the alien space broke the boundary and attacked. Even when he was fighting with the Taurus to the most dangerous moment, he did not use this spell. Zhang Fan asked the reason for the Green Wing, but Akan smiled and refused to answer.
Green Wings got the headless knight's sword, which was a two-handed big sword, faintly surrounded by the cold black evil spirit. They were not used to Green Wings, who were used to using the one-handed sword. But with this big sword, Green Wings had a strong combat power. So far, the main combat power of the two teams has their own weapons of real damage.
The Riyadh team also took a few rust weapons of skeletons. Although they were not very powerful, they were better than nothing. Anyway, because of their physical fitness, no one else could become the main force except Wolf, so they helped to get some traps and take action. From the strength of the Riyadh team, it can be seen that most preceptors cannot cope with the attacks of these monsters in the alien space that broke through the boundaries. Even ordinary elite corpse monsters, Palidon, skeleton archers, etc., it is difficult to deal with them.
Another month passed. The Spaniards should have attacked in advance under the layout of Eisen's team, but due to an accident, the attack time was postponed again!
Cruz, the most capable Spanish naval general, was assassinated! This must have been done by a British camp ruler! Because the Spanish naval general would not die until January 30, 1588, so that Spanish King Philip II would replace him and sent Duke Medina Sidonia to take over his position.
This preceptor must also be well-versed in history and has strong abilities! Only when he is threatened by a monster breaking the boundary, he can still assassinate the famous scene character Cruz under the threat of a monster. The timing is also quite accurate, because the layout of the Spanish preceptor affects history. While the scene is automatically corrected, he follows the time and beheads the other generals, forcing history to return to its original position again!
"Smart and powerful guy!" Aken commented.
"Why is it not a team, but a person who must do it?" Green Wing was puzzled.
Aken curled his lips and said, "In this situation, the more people there are, the harder it is to complete such an assassination mission! Instead, it is easier for one person to deal with. This guy must have tried to convince a British politician. He probably got the secret order from the Queen of England. This guy's scene status must be very special! Only by obtaining this assassination mission can he go to Spain safely."
"Assassination happens, when it enters a state of combat, the monsters breaking the boundary will inevitably appear. If it is a team battle, it is difficult to achieve a quick battle. A person ambushing, then suddenly killing people, or secretly poisoning, can quickly resolve the battle, so that the monsters breaking the boundary will have to go back because the battle is over, which is safe!"
Green Wing smiled and said, "It sounds like Xuanyuan Xing is doing it."
Xuanyuan Xing shook his head, "I'm not as smart as him."
Zhang Fan was surprised when he heard Xuanyuan Xing's words, "Is this guy actually a level 3 guardian or even a level 4 guardian?" Because the assassin requires high tolerance and concentration, and if the other party has high intelligence, wouldn't it be very terrible?!
Aken nodded, "It's very likely! Well, it should be the third level guardian of Narcissus and Concentration and Intelligence! If you don't do it well, this guy's status should be the personal guard of the old woman Elizabeth, a royal knight!"
Wolf gently stroked the long knife and said lightly: "I really want to meet this master..."
Aken smiled and said, "I am bluntly, if he wants to see you, it is likely that he will die. Such a solitary preceptor should be very cautious. He or she will expose himself if he wants to kill you. Otherwise, you will never see him."
Wolf snorted and did not answer.
Green Wings also drank silently, as if thinking about something...
Akan also remained silent. He understood that such preceptors must have been practiced slowly from a warrior like Wolf and Green Wings. However, he embarked on a lonely path of practice from the beginning...
…………
Cruz's death has won a breather for Britain. This naval battle has been delayed until the end of the New Year! However, what should come is still coming. The delay in time is not unfavorable to Spanish rulers. Because they can also have time to adjust the corrupt naval battle ideas of the Spanish top leaders and let the Spanish navy develop in a more modern naval direction!
During this period, British shipyards also absorbed and digested many advanced shipbuilding technologies, and the gunboats built became more and more like modern sail training ships. There were double-mounted and triple-mounted central axis rotating turrets! The muzzle can be lifted and lowered through simple mechanical devices, or rotated toward it.
Such a turret makes the deck utilization rate of the gunboat more densely packed with firepower. It is also easy to calibrate. With one shot aiming, the other connected artillery will be easily aimed!
Shu Yao and Akan even used modern artillery physical scopes to design a simple cannon sighting machine, which greatly improved the accuracy of long-range shooting of British gunboats! This was revolutionary to the changes in naval warfare!
Zhang Fan and Riyadh team sold the two original warships and re-customized a gunboat that was basically the ultimate version of the sail warship era. Apart from the absence of propeller propellers, such gunboats are already the pinnacle of the sail warship! There is almost no room for improvement! Two triple turrets and a double turret are arranged on the deck of the gunboat more than 40 meters long. Moreover, it is an improved version of the rear-mounted long-barrel gun, which uses a fixed-mounted gunpowder pack, which is powerful and has a very long range!
Because he had no intention of getting the ship too close to the enemy fleet, during customization, Akan canceled the second deck and short-barrel cannon positions, making the ship even narrower, long and low, and looked inconspicuous in the battle of the large fleet, not easy to become an attack target, and even if it is attacked, it is difficult to be targeted.
The red-haired pirate Rebecca developed a strong interest in this gunboat. She claimed to be the captain and the first gunboat leader. However, she did inherit her parents' pirate genes, and her navigation and shelling skills were both excellent!
In March, the Spanish Invincible Armada finally launched! Before leaving, King Philip II of Spain suggested that the Duke of Medina Sidonia should pay special attention to the enemy's purpose is to fight long distances because the British artillery had a large range; on the contrary, our purpose was to approach the enemy ships, hook them and board the ship for hand-to-hand combat.
However, Eisen made the Duke of Medina Sidonia notice that Britain might adopt new tactics in the form of columns. Moreover, the British sailors had better sailors and the ships were lighter and more flexible. The Spanish ships were loaded with too many soldiers, which made the real crew fewer and had too low status. Such seamen's skill in controlling the ships was definitely not as good as the enemy! I hope the Duke would improve.
But the Duke could not listen to these opinions, although he personally thought that Eisen, the Paladin, was still good. If he hadn't been running around, the Invincible Armada would have to set off at least three months later. In fact, history has confirmed this point. This naval battle was already ahead of schedule because of Eisen's efforts! Due to Eisen's efforts, more than ten new warships from the British shipyard were built.
On the British side, because Elizabeth I was still superstitious about diplomatic efforts, the Spanish Invincible Armada had already left the port, so she still did not allow the British navy to go out to sea. She even imprisoned the warlike Drake in Plymouth Port! This made the preceptors led by Zhang Fan's team extremely anxious. The Spanish preceptors were too powerful. They attacked at this time in advance, just to hit the weak point of Britain's historical! During this period, the Queen of England was like a ecstasy being poured into Spain, hoping for peace!
Zhang Fan was anxious and ran around to contact the senior British politicians he was familiar with. He jointly wrote a letter to the Queen of England! As a result, it was not known whether it was the queen's luck or the luck of the British keeper. The Invincible Armada led by the Duke of Medina Sidonia in Spain encountered an unprecedented sea storm on the Atlantic Ocean and actually destroyed the supply ship of the Invincible Armada!
When the Duke of Medina asked the fleet to take refuge in the port of Colula, it was found that most of the supplies were rotten and a large amount of drinking water leaked out of the barrel. Many ships also needed repairs. Therefore, the unwarranted duke convened a temporary war meeting and then suggested that Philip II rest in the armistice and advocated that he would talk about it next year.
