This raid, the name of the Invincible Fleet lives up to its reputation, overwhelming by numbers, not only instantly crushing the defense but also shattering the morale of the Bayfolk soldiers.
Easily disarmed the armed convoy at sea, without a scratch on itself.
Two cruisers, left and right, charged at the already battered and charred Pearl Bay.
Before the action, Sailboat Collector Mordent Gray specifically instructed the Fleet Commander to bring back a heavy cruiser for his research.
"I want to meticulously study the heavy cruiser’s every inch inside and out, uncover its secrets from the North Sea Defense Battle.
The beauty just born into this world is mine, so wonderful, ah... hahaha..."
Human-shaped Gun Platform Franco Bampton recalled the voice of that legendary master, his expression feeling uncomfortable all over, thinking this sailboat fanatic was even crazier than before.
"Prepare to throw hooks and board with me."
The Invincible Fleet typically employs conventional boarding tactics, ramming enemy ships, forcibly boarding, engaging in melee combat, and then capturing ships of enemy nations.
In essence, it’s the world’s number one marine force today.
The shipbuilding industry is mediocre, but the quantity and quality of Transcendents are unparalleled in the world, invincible in both naval and land battles.
During boarding, no one thought there would be any surprises in this light and easy plundering campaign.
But on one of the cruisers preparing to board, the bland-looking deputy’s face subtly fluctuated, suppressing the anger in his eyes, praying in his heart:
"Creator of Historical Corrections, source of all transformations, ultimate Harmonizer of All Things, His Majesty Saint Byron.
Your faithful kin, Shapeshifter Raymond, reports to you..."
The outwardly Pyrenean deputy was actually none other than the legendary victim, Unlucky Ghost Raymond.
Title ability: "Will cause direct superiors and related organizations of the same species to be unlucky, the stronger the commonality the greater the harm, higher orders have less impact."
Following Blood Red Whiskey Alfred’s advice, before Byron set off to the Corridor of Truth, he offered two renowned dishes, "Pearl in Clear Water" and "Golden Plate with Red Shrimp," to the two Queens.
Thus, under the magical power of pillow-side wind, Byron didn’t follow the initial plan to take this "disaster star" to the Eastern Continent and throw him to some difficult Old God Church.
Instead, he was assigned nearby to the Imperial Intelligence Department, responsible for the East Coast region.
Raymond relied on his shapeshifter ability that allows him to perfectly transform into other species with just a drop of their blood to wreak havoc freely.
This time his identity was the deputy on the Invincible Fleet’s cruiser Gun Squid.
Unfortunately, before this action, besides the Fleet Commander and his core staff, no one knew the specific combat target.
Even most warships and sailors were drawn from independently associated sub-fleets.
By the time Unlucky Ghost Raymond reacted, it was too late.
Pearl Bay was quickly crushed, and the few survivors on board mentally collapsed due to the vast power disparity.
After being sealed by Henry’s Navigation Map, they couldn’t even send out distress signals.
Raymond dared not expose himself, couldn’t communicate through the Law Network, and had to rely on the powerful faith network from a high-ranked existence... praying in battle!
It should be known that even demigods can only respond to prayers within a continent’s scope, yet Byron can respond globally thanks to the Trinity rank of the Holy Spirit.
Every believer who has received his response firmly believes this is solid proof of the sole God, the creator!
"Understood."
Hearing his master and chief god’s composed response, Raymond instantly felt reassured, looking towards his "colleague" beside him with dark eyes:
"The Bayfolkal Group, led by His Majesty, is infinitely approaching the supreme of the mortal world.
Dare to attack us without warning and killed so many of us.
If I let you escape on a single ship this time, I wouldn’t deserve the name Unlucky Ghost Raymond. This time, I will rise to become a Fourth-order Adventurer over your corpses."
Didn’t have to wait long.
An invisible raven used the Edge of the World as a transit, and alighted on Pearl Bay’s half-broken main mast.
Its eyes coldly glanced at this small Invincible Fleet.
"I didn’t have much to do with Saint Isabella before, but our cooperation in defeating the Puppet King Louis was fairly pleasant.
This Empress flipping faces is indeed not modest at all.
Originally, the Dreadnought Fleet wasn’t formed, I didn’t want too much internal strife in human power, yet you mistook me for only doing business?
Now, you need to be fully aware of who is the true master of these seas.
Since you want war, then I shall accompany you to the end."
Before the two cruisers could approach Pearl Bay, a sudden flash of blue light appeared on the sea, revealing another heavy cruiser flying the North Sea Empire military flag.
Clearly, the Invincible Fleet isn’t the only one with legion titles.
The North Sea Empire’s fleet, all composed of heavy cruisers, received the legion title effect [Unrestricted Wolfpack] on the day the first batch of five heavy cruisers was launched.
"Heavy cruiser’s basic attribute is: Single Combat Invincible.
Can outrun what it can’t beat, can beat what it can’t outrun, most can’t both beat and outrun it.
