Chapter 593 - 558: Spare No Expense, Sink It!
Being a celebrity really is a pain in the ass. No matter what you do or where you go, there's always a crowd watching. With so many players in the China Region, I don't have any privacy left. Can't I play happily anymore? I refuse to believe it. I'll go to the North Sea, to the Eastern World to play solo, then try to gather a crowd around me!
Fine, since these pesky players want to spectate, let them have their fill! I'm not gonna tell them my real goal is to slay the Electric Eel, I'd rather have a few more to take the hits for me.
That's right, the plan to deal with the Electric Eel, concocted with Savaran and Spielberg, has considered everything but the eel's electric power is still a gamble. The only way is for two large ships to tough it out. Savaran, as an experienced fisherman, believes that the Electric Eel's electrical power is limited, even for a boss. So toughness it is.
Now look, with so many players here for the thrill, if the Electric Eel comes, given its reputation from last time as a ruthless Godslayer, it'll probably just blast its way through.
Thinking this, Da Fei changes his mind and orders: "No need for warnings, let them watch."
Da Bing immediately says, "But Brother Fei, I see a few of Royal Club's medium ships; they definitely have bad intentions! Should we clear them out first?"
Bad intentions? What harm could they do? The Ironclad Whale Hunter with its towering iron armor isn't afraid of your bombardment, ramming, or boarding. And my Radiant Wings with dozens of cannon ports on each side, plus Alina the humanoid cannon, am I supposed to be afraid you'll come to offer yourselves as easy kills before the boss appears?
Da Fei calmly responds: "No need to bother. They won't dare to make a move before the boss appears."
"Understood."
Now, Da Fei's fleet is quietly stationed at the Electric Eel's old haunt, starting to cast a net. The original plan was as soon as the Electric Eel is detected, the Radiant Wings would immediately go into stealth, allowing the Storm Tower-equipped Whale Hunter to draw the eel's attention, and then sweep in with the net for the kill.
But plans don't always keep up with changes. Now, with so many players around, performing the Mysterious Stealth Navigation, a killer move kept up the sleeve, in front of them is a bit too much, right? I'm still counting on this move to tear open the UK's massive ships.
Whatever, if the Electric Eel comes out on a rampage, it won't care about the extras, right? I'll just move in the chaos. No need to stealth. A killer move is a national treasure, not to be lightly shown to others.
...
Meanwhile, at the Royal Club.
Royal Blade receives a message from a team member upfront: "Captain, we've arrived at the designated sea zone. Da Fei's two large ships are stationary as if fiddling with fishing nets, looking a bit like they are dredging. There are a total of twenty-six other regular players' small merchant and fishing ships watching from a distance."
Royal Blade immediately responds, "Good, if the enemy doesn't move, neither do we. Wait for the rest of the fleet to assemble."
"Received!"
Royal Blade then immediately messages Royal Dominator: "Big bro, our fleet is assembling at the target location, shall we invite the journalists to cover this as a feature?"
Royal Dominator laughs heartily: "Of course, win or lose, we must let the China Region and the whole world know about the Royal Club. Even though we don't have as many pros as the three large guilds, we have the guts. When we target someone, we'll go all out until the end!"
Royal Blade excitedly says: "That's why you're the big bro! Professional guilds be damned, each one looks down on Da Fei but still pretends to care about their damn image, calculating their own interests, afraid to take the lead like a silent fart. Not us, we dare to fight, we play the game for real!"
Royal Dominator smiles proudly: "They make their livelihood by playing games, we play games when we have too much money and nothing better to do. We're on a different level."
"Big bro couldn't be more right."
...
Time ticks by, and Little Fei circles the area without any sign of the Electric Eel. Da Fei can't help but wonder, it doesn't make sense? This Electric Eel should be able to sense the Divine Artifact from a great distance, right? Why is there no movement?
Meanwhile, more and more ships continue to gather nearby, and the region channel starts buzzing as more and more ships appear, breaking the silence.
Some achingly bored common players finally couldn't stand the loneliness and began to speak up on the channel: "So many ships here!"
"Is everyone here to see the legendary Brother Fei?"
"Or are you here to see you, maybe?"
"I'm just here for the drama, as you all understand."
"I'm really scared, I'm so far away, I won't get accidentally hit, will I?"
Looking at the increasing number of ships around, Da Bing got anxious again: "Brother Fei, there are more and more Royal Family ships, everyone knows the Royal Family is making a move!"
One Sword Eastward also said: "Brother Fei, there are too many flies. It'll be troublesome once they completely surround us. Their goal is to sink Brother Fei's big ship at all costs by ramming it. Let's make the first move. No one can beat Brother Fei's big ship anyway, and at worst, we'll just pay to clear the red name. No big deal!"
Brother Hao also said: "Money is not a problem. I can just find a studio online to buy Gold Coins and wash away the red name."
Holy shit, even such a badass person doesn't dare to say that a red name is no big deal. Wasn't the lesson harsh enough when all the divine artifacts of Phoenix Feather were exposed? But it's really a threat if so many ships rush over for a death collision, isn't it? That's right, their Medium Ships can be purchased anytime from the shipyard, so it doesn't matter if their whole fleet is wiped out, but my big ship is unique at this stage; if it sinks, it's gone for good. That would be a huge loss, and Da Fei started to feel that the situation was a bit troublesome.
Although Whale Hunter is definitely not afraid of collision, it's uncertain for Radiant Wings. What's more important, once hit, its speed will decrease, and then the other side can just keep ramming one after another. Even a fierce tiger may not be able to withstand a pack of wolves, right?
So should Brother just wimp out and run? No way, how can I wimp out? Taking the initiative to clear the field is also an act of fear and a sign of wimping out. Once I show weakness, it will greatly boost the morale and fighting spirit of my enemies, and others will step all over me even more in the future! Do I still want to play this game?
You want to ram? Well, Ironclad Whale Hunter is right next to Radiant Wings, so even if they want to ram, they can only hit one side of Radiant Wings, reducing the damage by half. Plus, once they collide, the ships will be jammed together, and the ones behind won't have room to continue ramming. That is to say, although they seem to have many ships, the actual number that can really come into contact with Flying is only about a dozen.
Radiant Wings' Ghost Captain is possessed, and back in Frostwind Strait, it took so many shots from Skira without sinking, can't it withstand a broadside ram from a dozen Medium Ships? Not to mention Radiant Wings' hull is equipped with Leviathan Armor +100 Defense, what do I have to be scared of?
Even if Radiant Wings really gets a few big holes rammed into it, it might not sink! Because with Sailing Skill's Towing ability, if Whale Hunter is there, even if half of Radiant Wings is underwater, it can still be held by Whale Hunter and not sink. As long as Brother's ship doesn't sink, Elena blasts one with every shot, not afraid to decimate you till you cry?
I can't show weakness! Da Fei quickly analyzed the current situation and simply said: "Brother will just stop right here, let them come and ram if they dare, I will treat them like a fart! The key thing is for your ships to be careful not to be targeted."
Even the godlike Brother Fei said so, the Guild members had no further objections and could only say: "Brother Fei, don't worry. With the speed of Octopus, it can leave them several streets behind and they wouldn't even dream of catching up with us."
.....
At 2:20 in the morning, the Electric Eel that Da Fei was waiting for still hadn't appeared, but the Royal Family's First Fleet of 66 Medium Ships, including 10 that had been refitted with 8-gun cabins, all took their positions. These ships, like a pack of wolves, completely surrounded Da Fei's fleet.
And at this moment, hundreds of ordinary players' fishing boats and merchant ships in the entire Andria Sea Zone also came to watch, creating a spectacle of white sails stretching out as far as the eye could see from the aerial view of Little Fei. The current area channel was as lively as a holiday, with various "selling sunflower seeds and soda in the front row" and "placing bets" spam blinding the players' eyes.
At this time, seeing the scene on the live broadcast video, Royal Dominator sneered coldly: "It seems Da Fei is not planning to leave, huh?"
Royal Blade said with a cold laugh: "With the starting speed of the big ship, it's too late for him to think about leaving now. He probably wants to clash with us head-on!"
Royal Dominator said coldly: "Then let's accommodate him, fleet attack! At all costs!"
Royal Blade trembled with excitement: "Yes, big brother!"
At this moment, as dozens of signal flares shot up from the Royal Warships, the wolf pack officially charged at Da Fei. At that moment, the entire area channel was a sea of shrieking and spamming screens!
