God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

Without the support of the adaptive cycle system, it is virtually impossible for a fleet to resist an attack from a fleet that has activated the adaptive cycle system, especially when there is a disparity in the number and overall strength of the two fleets.

Before Cecislian dismantled the adaptive cycle system, it unleashed "Sunfall," a relatively effective attack within the system. This attack was devastating against defenses without the support of the adaptive system.

Even if they were aware of Cecissian's planned attack and mobilized their forces in advance to resist, they could not stop the collapse of the adaptive system cycle.

The dissolution of the system also means that the power accumulated by the adaptive cyclical system is also fading away.

The adaptive loop system, which had increased more than tenfold, faded away, leaving the fleet in its original form.

Under this influence, the core area and the area with high concentration of the essence of heaven and earth, which were constructed under the adaptive circulation system of both parties, are also rapidly receding.

The attack 'Sunfall', which had already been launched, was also affected by the surrounding spiritual energy, and its power began to weaken over time.

However, for the Han Empire's fleet at this time, the time required for the 'Sunfall' to weaken to a level that could be resisted was enough for the 'Sunfall' to completely disappear without a trace after causing damage.

Like a blazing sun falling, a large amount of seawater was instantly evaporated. The extremely high temperature of the 'sunfall' itself caused terrifying burn damage, and the steam generated by the rapid evaporation of large amounts of seawater caused further damage to soldiers within the area.

The extreme temperatures rapidly erode the cloud-like vapors stored inside the steel warship.

When the 'sunset' fell, exceeding the limits of what a conventional fleet could handle, the sea surface at the point of impact was immediately covered by an impenetrable mist, and the sound of the seawater constantly boiling could be heard in the eyes of most people.

The surrounding seawater flowed towards that one point of impact.

As the water vapor evaporates rapidly, the sea surface gradually calms down as it is replenished by the surrounding seawater.

The only difference was that the warships in that area had vanished without a trace.

"Just as I imagined, that old man Cecislian did indeed have a backup plan, and it was quite deadly from the start." Moncomb sensed the process and course of the attack, and his expression changed slightly, but he quickly regained his composure.

Cecissian was right. In conventional warfare, Moncomb's combat habits and command arrangements would place his flagship in a relatively rear area to better command and observe the overall battlefield situation.

But this time was different. His inner fear and understanding of Cecislian led Moncomb to make a different choice than he had made in the past.

When facing Cecilian, one can never be too cautious, and it is normal to overestimate the enemy.

Just because a normal person can't do it doesn't mean Cecilielian can't.

In addition, the communication effect of the ship spirit magic built into the steel warship means that Moncomb's command role is not much worse than that of the flagship when he is on any steel warship.

The only difference is probably in the beacon and battlefield decision-making.

"That's it?" Ignoring Meng Kangbu's somewhat flustered and anxious command, Sun Ce looked at the empty sea, his words filled with shock.

The steel warship, with its formidable defensive capabilities and impervious to conventional attacks, vanished right before his eyes, under his very gaze. The wooden warships surrounding the steel warship were also gone; judging by their condition, the soldiers aboard were likely in dire straits as well.

"That's right!" Meng Kangbu calmly replied after adjusting the formation and arrangements, and then continued to give instructions.

Unlike Sun Ce, who was unaware of the situation, Meng Kangbu directly connected with the ship spirit inside the warship and, through communication within the area, naturally knew the reason why the 'Ninghai-class' flagship was destroyed.

The excessive temperature of the 'Sunfall' directly depleted the warship's reserve cloud energy, further attacking the warship's main body. The excessively high temperature directly resulted in the deaths of all the soldiers.

Even without soldiers, the ship spirit still exists and can even move using the ship's own propulsion system.

However, without the reserve of cloud energy, the "Sunfall" caused a large amount of seawater to disappear, resulting in the warships' water level being tens of meters below the sea surface. They were unable to use the cloud energy to stabilize the water surface, and the final strike at the end of the "Sunfall" destroyed the flowing seawater.

This causes the seawater to be replenished not by flowing water, but by falling from the sky in a waterfall-like manner.

The warship was severely damaged, had no cloud reserves, and was subjected to excessive seawater pressure. Its own spare load was lower than the actual buoyancy requirement, so it sank.

A national treasure has sunk to the bottom of the sea.

It would be impossible for Meng Kangbu not to be panicked.

Although he had mentally prepared himself when fighting Cecissian, Moncomb's heart still pounded when the event actually happened.

A steel warship weighing several thousand tons is made of several thousand tons of steel, and that is, the better quality steel. In the Kushan Empire, it would be equivalent to the complete loss of a year's worth of high-quality steel production.

In particular, the ship spirits involved have been completely cut off from communication, and Meng Kangbu is well aware of the implications of this.

The silent steel warship is none other than the Ninghai-class's lead ship, the Ninghai!
A warship that is very special both in a practical and symbolic sense.

It is precisely because of the special nature of this warship that it has become the nominal flagship of this coordinated operation.

In addition to its flagship configuration, it is more than capable of serving as a flagship product.

On the one hand, the flagship is in a relatively safe position, and on the other hand, it is also the time to settle the credit, and the flagship itself can also get some credit.

In other words, Ninghai's role as the flagship also carries political significance. After all, Ninghai is one of His Majesty's private warships, and its victory in the war is a source of pride for him.

Besides sharing the spoils of victory, part of it was also to comfort and encourage the soldiers.

After all, with this warship here, anyone with a brain should understand the level of this war.

Fighting to the death might get you what you deserve, but if you back down and run away, you're really doomed.

Now, all of that is irrelevant. The warship has sunk to the bottom of the sea, and the Pinghai will take its place as flagship. (End of Chapter)
