"Renault flanked from the right, Poitu went around the back, the movement was fast, and they began to accelerate upward!"

Simon, the deputy leader of the commando team, roared directly in the minds of the team members, filling the ears with a strong wind whining high in the air, and only through guò consciousness connection to communicate between the flying beast formations, through guò spiritual resonance, Simon and the griffin knights also shared their surprise and anxiety.

They had every reason to be surprised, disguised as the Alcatraz garrison, approaching in a patrol manner, and suddenly attacked the Zeppelin's engine, but the flame spell "Flame Blasting Sword", which was enough to blast away a small group of soldiers' attack magic, only left a few scorch marks on the shell, and the white giant whale in front of them soared through the air without hindrance.

"Hell, could it be that this guy is a solid Iron King?!"

The sorcerer Charente's complaint caused a ripple of resonance, and the veteran warriors who had attacked the fortified city also felt that the protection level of this ship was a bit perverted.

"Don't stop, keep attacking!This big guy can rise to 7,000 meters, and the griffin can't fly that high!!"

Simon said as he activated the "Frost and Snow Arrow" technique, and the shell of the engine compartment was frozen with a layer of frost, which quickly turned into steam. Flame and Wind Blade were also helpless with the armor of the engine's outer cover, leaving only one or two insignificant traces.

"It's really stupid, although this ship is a civilian ship, it is also the crystallization of technical power, what can that kind of painless magic do?"

Captain Ernst Lehmann took a sip of his tea, shook his head and said:

"Push harder, get rid of them. ”

"Yes. Sir!"

The engine was running a little louder, the altimeter readings were turning faster, and the attack from outside couldn't even delay the Zeppelin.

This is a matter of course, as Captain Lehman said, even though this is only a civilian ocean liner, it is not a thin-skinned dumpling that will be knocked down in three or two clicks.

In order to improve the ship's survivability and escape chance in the event of an attack by hostile forces or bandits, the Zeppelin has been fully considered in the design stage to improve the ship's survivability and escape chances, and the key parts are laid with a layer of 82mm thick armor plates, which extend all the way to the engine room. Covered with engine and liquid cooling.

This layer of armor was sufficient to withstand the attacks of small and medium-caliber anti-aircraft guns. The four-sided and pentagonal-level variation attack techniques are not a problem.

"We'll be in safe airspace while they're out there, and there's nothing going on with them—"

Standing behind the captain's seat, staring at the attacking griffons outside. Freya frowned and said:

"It's so suspicious. ”

Three griffons in a group. The Masters are all magicians with at least four ranks. Elegant and refined mastery of the technique, seamless cooperation between individuals and groups - there is no doubt that these people are veterans with plenty of battlefield experience. Most likely, the real Knights of the Golden Fleece, not the impostor air pirates. The Knights' attack on a cruise ship full of Charlemagne's nobles, including a princess and her fiancé, was undoubtedly an act of treachery.

What do these fellows want to do at the expense of honor and country? Is it just to plunder the ship's wealth to make up for the War Department's unpaid wages? Or is there some other important purpose?

Not only are the motives confused, but the messy tactics are also suspicious, and the griffons are only blindly attacking the engine compartment, and the attacks are also scattered. If they focus on one engine, at least one or two engines will be able to cause problems at this point, slowing down the ship's ascent. But they didn't do that, and they still attacked in a scattered attack from the east and the west. There is no improvisation from the battlefield trained by the ace troops at all, and it is simply like a rookie who acts according to a textbook.

-- It's like I did it on purpose.

Illogical behavior is a stronger proof than any report or message that the enemy still has his hand.

"Which is our closest friendly force?"

Continuing to watch the griffons and magic knights unseemly crappy attacks, Freya questioned loudly.

The communications non-commissioned officer was stunned for a moment, turned the radio knob for a while, looked at the small notebook of the identification code, and replied:

"200 nautical miles south-south-west, the newly-built Derflinger-class battleship Prinz Eugen is on sea trials. 350 nautical miles due south, the 4th submarine detachment of the Navy is training in formation. ”

"By the time they arrive, the enemy attack will be over long ago, so can we only rely on ourselves?"

"However, Lord Freya, the thieves have not caused substantial damage to this ship. Just a little longer, and they will have to retreat because of the height......"

"So there's no need to call in friendly support?"

Captain Lyman shuddered as his cold eyes swept over.

"Dare to launch an assault with a small number of combat forces, after encountering a setback, the enemy must have other strategies, otherwise it has other plans. ”

Following the nerves exercised from the battlefield, Freya gave the order, like a battle-hardened general:

"Lower the next door of the cabin, stabilize the passengers, contact the cabins, and confirm if there is anything abnormal! Send a security team to monitor the side of Her Royal Highness and Roland, and if any suspicious person approaches, shoot immediately!"

"Yes, sir!"

Reflecting the standing salute, Captain Lehmann immediately set about arranging. What Freya was worried about, the captain also counted.

-- Internal response.

The ship was indeed technologically advanced and structurally solid, but that was for an intruder from the outside, if someone had started to destroy it from the inside, such as attacking the lifting mechanism and breaking the engine compartment. Even the Zeppelin, which is as large as the Zeppelin, can be slaughtered like a giant whale stranded on the beach, and there is no way to fight back.

As for strengthening the protection of those two, there is nothing to ask.

What can make a group of madmen rely on a group of griffons, regardless of the performance gap and the risk of painful retaliation, to attack the Zeppelin must be something of corresponding value. And what could be more valuable on this ship than Minerva and Roland?

"The evacuation of the passengers has been completed!"

"All porthole armor plates have been lowered, all the separation walls in the ship have been lowered, and the ship has entered isolation mode!"

"Good!"

Satisfied with the crew's training, Freya nodded, and then tilted the corners of her mouth upwards to reveal a hideous expression that resembled that of a beast licking its lips at its prey.

"Open all the gun mounts, greet the guests with white phosphorus and AHEAD shells, and get my 'red wildebeest' ready in the cargo warehouse, and I'll have to go and say hello to them later." ”

The weapons control repeated the order aloud, and a dozen round holes appeared in the hull of the Zeppelin, and something strange popped out of it.

The hemispherical base, in the middle part, has 7 round pipes in a circular shape, and the black pipes point to the griffon knight, who is unaware of the danger, and slowly rotates.

"Thank you for your hard work, so let's rest here. ”

Freya smiled and lowered her raised right arm, and the 730 close-in defense guns unleashed enthusiastic cheers for the first time in actual combat. (To be continued......)
