At this moment, Leo Ray held on to the railing on the inside of the stern deck while looking in the direction the sailor on the lookout platform was pointing.
However, across the boundless sea, their sight remained calm, showing no indication of anything unusual.
But the surrounding illusions seemed to have seen something, as they all started to get anxious.
“Pass on my order, sound the highest level enemy attack alert, the whole ship enters battle mode, and everyone prepare for combat!”
The young Chosen Son of God had a serious look on his face. While he quickly steered the ship, turning the giant vessel sideways, he ordered, “First Mate, carry out pre-battle inspection.”
“Aye, Captain!”
In an instant, as the urgent horn sounded, the aged sailor’s hands waved in the air while a small yellow hexagram array appeared before him.
Following that, the old sailor cleared his throat and spoke to the magic array, “Report the preparation of each cabin!”
Immediately, a series of crisp responses came from the magic array.
“First Magic Cannon Deck is ready!”
“Second Magic Cannon Deck is ready!”
“Magic Power Cabin is ready!”
“Magic Barrier Cabin is ready!”
“Sail Middle Team is ready!”
“First Combat Middle Team is ready!”
As the responses sounded off, the cabin doors below opened simultaneously.
A large number of soldiers in black armor and black blades emerged from the cabin onto the open deck and quickly stood guard at various points of the giant ship.
Meanwhile, the magicians had activated all the magic cannons on the deck, causing the embedded red magic arrays to shine brilliantly, creating a ready-to-strike stance.
At the same time, a semi-transparent defensive magic barrier enveloped the entire vessel.
For a moment, the atmosphere on the open deck became incredibly tense.
“It seems like a battle is about to begin.”
At this moment, looking at the violent splashes stirred by the ship’s sudden change of direction, hitting the ship’s side and falling on the deck, Leo Ray couldn’t help but reveal a curious expression.
It must be said that witnessing a battle by the Chosen Son of God, who had vanished three thousand years ago, was an extremely rare opportunity.
Thanks to Leo Ray’s prior warning, although the ship shook violently during the turn, causing unsteady footing, everyone had already found suitable fixed positions to hold on, avoiding any problems.
“Lord, why do all these illusions look so tense while my subordinates see nothing?”
Staring at the still calm sea in the distance after the shaking of the giant ship had subsided, Bianca White’s face was full of confusion.
On the other side, Quinn Serena and the other three Lords, also wore perplexed expressions as they let out a sigh of relief.
“The reason is simple.” Leo Ray smiled faintly as he pointed towards the bow where they had been just now, “If I’m not mistaken the Illusion Crystal that records the surroundings of the ship must have a certain range.”
“The enemies are currently outside this range, so they cannot be recorded by the Illusion Crystal.”
Lord is correct.”
Gideon Black elegantly adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, and added, “What we saw in the distant ocean is simply an illusion created by the Illusion Crystal, not the actual imagery from back then.”
“I see.”
Hearing this, Quinn Serena’s long eyelashes fluttered as she stared at the calm horizon, her face enlightened as she murmured, “So, this wonderful illusion realm is actually a combination of the actual scenery within a certain range centered around this giant ship and the distant illusions, isn’t it? I have to say it’s quite astonishing.”
At these words, Gabriel Jordan, Myla, and Patrick Pain, also showed expressions of sudden realization.
As they were discussing this, the situation on the ship changed again.
At this moment, the giant ship’s speed had significantly increased following the emergency change of direction.
With the white waves surging around and crashing onto the deck, at the command of the Chosen Captain, the ship launched its first wave of attacks.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
For a time, with dozens of magic cannons firing simultaneously from the three decks, the sound was astonishingly loud, almost deafening.
However, the fire magic that was fired out still vanished directly into the distance, beyond the range recorded by the Illusion Crystal.
Only a wisp of smoke remained at the mouth of the magic cannons, proving that a round of bombardment had indeed just taken place.
“Wow, such a concentrated firing of so many magic cannons, even if it’s only Tier Second, I’m afraid it could cause great damage once it hits the target, right?”
Watching this, Leo Ray slightly raised his eyebrows.
On the other side, after the first wave of attacks was over,
The giant ship turned 180 degrees again under the skilled control and command of the Chosen Captain, launching its second wave of attacks.
“They switched to the other side for the continuous attack because of the magic cannons’ cooldown time, right?”
Amidst the ship’s violent shaking and feeling the salty splashes on his face, Leo Ray nodded slightly.
