Gradim confirmed that the "rocket" launched by the enemy was about to reach his own fleet, but he didn't care about it. He didn't issue any response instructions. Instead, he cursed the ineffective intelligence work, which leaked their marching route.

His calmness in the face of the "rocket" stems from the powerful defensive barrier of the airship.

However, this confidence was soon overturned.

The moment the leading "rocket" came into contact with the defensive barrier, it did not stalemate for a moment, then rushed over, and then exploded!

Fortunately, the range of the barrier was much larger than that of the airship, so the delayed fuze activated by the penetration exploded before it hit the ship.

"It's not a rocket, it's a missile! Dodge urgently and intercept it with Phalanx!"

The reason why the ship is fine is not that the defense is really sufficient, but that the opponent seems to have not grasped the timing of the detonation, and it takes time and energy to repair the barrier. If the opponent can penetrate it with a single blow, the barrier will be greatly consumed or repaired. If the second bomb hits, hundreds of troops will be lost at one time!

All must be intercepted!

The machine guns, rapid-fire magic guns, and magic on the escorting frigate poured a dense barrage at the incoming missiles, and the small number of weapons on the transport ship also aimed at the missiles with all their strength. The chasing missile exploded.

The entire air fleet has a total of 303 airships, 300 transport ships (including the flagship), and 3 frigates. Although there are many transport ships, the number is enough to form intensive crossfire.

Compared with them, the number of incoming missiles was quite small, a total of one hundred and thirty-two.

However, the extreme speed of the missile still penetrated the defensive barriers of the airships that were unable to react in time. The explosive wind from the detonation slapped the hull, and one-third of the missiles were completely black, and the tail flames were black and red. The destructive power of the missiles was even greater. Terrible, the enchantment will decay on the spot when it is hit, and the repair speed is even slower.

Finally, two missiles directly hit the transport ship, which was too late for the barrier to be repaired, causing a terrible explosion from inside, and knocking down the two transport ships full of troops.

"Damn! Put down the lifeboat and rescue immediately!"

"Report, the second wave of missiles is coming!"

"What?! Let all the flying monsters dispatch! Destroy the missiles as much as possible before they arrive, and share the pressure on the fleet! The analysis team, hurry up—analyze the nature of the missiles and formulate a more effective attack strategy! Follow the direction of the missiles and move forward at full speed , Kill all the guys who fired the missiles!"

Gradim ordered one after another.

Before the next opportunity appeared, they could only stick together like this.

Dodging and retreating to try to gather further intelligence? Gradim would not allow it, whether it was letting go of dignity or disobeying the emperor's orders.

On his way there is only victory or death.

After more than 20 minutes, a conspicuous shadow of a ship appeared on the sea level, and it was also confirmed that it was the source of launching waves of missiles.

It's really conspicuous, most of the ships are shining with gold and silver, making it easy for them to confirm the existence of enemy ships, but they can't see the real coordinates clearly.

"What kind of joke is this color, catch up with me at full speed!" Gradim gritted his teeth. The air fleet has already been shot down with thirty-eight transport ships, with a loss of more than 10%. A large number of troops have not landed and exerted their powerful strength before they were lost in vain. .

"Report, part of the analysis results came out. Although the structure is still unknown, those missiles do contain magic essence and spirit power."

"Is there a mechanism for the magic element to work? Okay, order all the frigates to release [Magic element disrupting emission], and start acting immediately!"

[Magic Disruption Radiation] is a ray that can disturb the magic. As long as the magic is the life force of the monster, no matter how powerful it is in theory, it will be blocked from action. The original purpose is to safely pass through the Jura Forest and deal with Viru. The means prepared for Dora and the Demon King are now being used in other places.

[Magic element disrupting radiation] is harmless to humans, but because there are a large number of monsters in the fleet, in order to avoid harming friendly forces, the frigate came to the front of the flying fleet with full power and began to irradiate the entire area in front of it.

The irradiated missile did not disintegrate or explode on the spot, but it also began to tremble, doing weird Brownian motions, and finally fell headlong into the sea, and the explosion water column rushed high.

Seeing that his method was as effective as a nemesis, there was a brief cheer from the bridge.

Gradim: "Okay, release all the units of flying monsters and sea monsters, and sink all the enemy's ships!"

He thought for a while, and ordered: "Let frigate No. 1 use [Magic element disrupting radiation] to irradiate those ships and try."

According to common sense, although gold and silver are not as good as some magic metals, they are superior magic power transmission materials among ordinary metals. Since many missiles and ships are made of gold and silver, do they also rely on magic essence to operate?

"Frigate 1 is ready!"

Gradim: "Use cluster irradiation and execute it immediately."

"Yes—start the beam irradiation."

In fact, because the trajectory of the missile is very predictable, a frigate pulling out a fan of the [Magic Element Disruption Radiation] is enough to intercept a wave of missiles. Although the burden is a bit heavy, it can still be done with effort.

Therefore, try to separate a part of [Magic Energy Disruption Emission] to counterattack.

There is a famous saying in another world - offense is the best defense.

[Magic Element Disruption Radiation] beams swept across the sea, and several gold and silver ships immediately began to disintegrate and sink in situ.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

But Gradim immediately poured cold water: "Don't be careless! This is the result of sacrificing many comrades in arms to get close to the attack distance! Such a record is nothing to be proud of! You must not relax until you wipe out the enemy!"

His voice spread throughout every airship ~lightnovelpub.net~ through communication, making everyone tense again.

Like a slap in the face, some missiles began to draw arcs and attack the transport ships from other directions, and continued to shoot them down; a series of missiles aimed at the frigate that opened its defenses because of the converging [Magic element disrupting radiation] 1 No. Hit it!

"Boom!" A missile hit accurately, and a large hole exploded in the side, emitting thick smoke.

But compared to the transport ship, this is a full-time combat airship, with armor stacked. This blow caused its hull to tilt, and some crew members were injured or injured, but it was not enough to make it fall.

Gradim's eyes seemed to spew out flames, and he continued to order to wipe out the enemy.

………………………

"What are they doing?" Crohnpiss muttered.

At this time, she was standing on the bridge of the USS Louisiana, watching the situation of the enemy ship with a high-power telescope. Although she could easily see a better field of view than the telescope with magic, she couldn't help playing like this on a warship. child role play.
