Rekindle the spirit of war

Chapter 56

"I will tear this darkness apart... for the freedom of all."

"The people will prevail."

"You want to be fair, and I can help you, because that's what I'm after. But after 'fairness' comes, you have to pay for everything you have done."

The dazzling fire brought Sean back to his senses.Before he could see what was happening, he jerked the rudder sharply to the left to keep the airship dodging enemy fire.

"What were you thinking? We almost got shot!" Sofia yelled and complained.

Shane sighed.It was his fault that he was distracted; but he was also really tired.At five o'clock in the morning, just before dawn, the nobles dropped incendiary bombs on the civilian stronghold.For the past dozen hours, he has been flying the airship to fight. "I'm sorry. And you—you shouldn't take your eyes off the back of the binoculars, you know?"

The fighting situation has been deadlocked.People are still fighting high, but the situation is not optimistic.Several airships had been lost, and the enemy's warships had been less numerous.The balloon of the battleship is separated from the hull, and there are some advanced remedial measures on the hull; if the balloon is damaged, the battleship itself will not crash, just replace it with a new balloon.Airships are not.

In order to better guard against the enemy, Sean had to let more people board the airship to observe all directions.Not only the course of the battleship, but also those on the deck had to keep an eye on it. Any disturbance of the enemy might cause them great losses.

Sean was opposed to Sophia getting on the airship. Once the aircraft was hit, it would be difficult to escape.But Sophia insisted on helping, and even Adam couldn't persuade her.

"Today is the same as usual, I guess they are still trying to attack us from both sides." Sofia said: "The only difference is that today the weather is good."

Sean turned his gaze to the distant sky.The weather is really nice today.The sky faded from the gloom of the previous few days and returned to a clear blue.The floating clouds change shape, with orange light, heralding the arrival of evening.

Another day is coming.

Withdrawing his gaze, Sean quickly looked to both sides.Sophia was right, the two battleships were on the left and right sides of the airship, and they would be attacked from both sides.He could rise quickly out of the encirclement, but he had a better idea.

Sean stood still, staring intently at the enemy ship.He knew they would move.Sure enough, the warships on both sides fired at this side at the same time.Sean acted quickly, allowing the airship to dodge the attack.The airship drew a wavy line under the control, narrowly dodged two shells, and rushed into the sky.

Sean's side is safe and sound, but the enemy is different.Sean dodged, and the two battleships became each other's targets.Most of the side of a battleship was blown up.

"Beautiful!" The shooter and observer in the airship shouted at the same time.Sophia was particularly elated, but also worried: "Is that okay, Sean? You're going to piss them off."

"You're right. But I just want to piss them off." Sean adjusted the direction of the airship, and just now his propeller almost collided with the stern of the battleship. "This is a group of arrogant guys with high self-esteem. When something goes wrong, they will shirk responsibility and blame each other. When the people are provoked, they will unite and rise up to resist, but they are 'politicians', which are different from us."

Sophia nodded with half understanding, and yawned big.It's getting dark, today's battle will end soon, and they can go back to rest soon.

But something unexpected happened.Sean saw a new fleet rising outside the city. The hull was completely black, which was very different from the previous white and blue-striped warships.This fleet is smaller than the nobles, but lighter and faster, and it is coming here.His heart tensed instantly.

Sean guessed it was an enemy supporter, but who could it be?It can't be a businessman, because the two sides have fallen out about Vincent's affairs, and they are too busy to take care of themselves.So……

No matter who came, Sean and his companions also saw it.Several airships pulled towards the sound generator at the same time.This was the signal they had previously agreed to remind each other to be vigilant when reinforcements joined the enemy.

"Whoever they are..." murmured a child in the pod, reloading.

"None of us will back down." Sean took up the conversation. "Fight to the end, swear to the death" has become their promise to themselves and their comrades-in-arms. This is the sound of the horn!

"Wait, something's wrong." Sophia suddenly grabbed Sean's sleeve.She said loudly: "You are too young, so you may not know. That is the fleet of the Levin family! The last Duke of Levin died in the battle for control of the sea with his neighbors, but his men won! In honor of him Thanks to the contribution, the parliament decided not to allow this fleet to be established by the state, but their family must consult the parliament and all members vote for it before it can be used!"

Shane shuddered.He understood why Medanzuo was so sure that the people's side would win.The other party's active performance on the battlefield had already won the trust of other families; in this way, as long as he asked for instructions to use the fleet, the others would definitely agree.But Medanzuo never thought of using that gun against civilians, and, on the contrary, it was the opposite.

Sean's throat choked.He saw that the black fleet lined up over there gradually became a V shape, and the leading battleship had already fired two ammunition, hitting the balloon and the hull of a large battleship respectively.

"Are they here to help us? Sean, you should know?"

Sean held the rudder with one hand, covered his mouth with the other, and did not speak.He understood how much pressure Mei Danzuo was under to do this, and he also knew what the other party would lose: the right of inheritance, and even his surname!Although the other party did this not only for himself, but also for the people, he was still deeply grateful and guilty.

The mistakes you made on me may never be completely forgiven; but what I owe you may never be repaid.

With the appearance of mysterious reinforcements, the battle quickly reversed.Sean threw himself into battle quickly, until he saw a nobleman's warship ram the black one before crash-landing, and a man fell over the bow.

Sean tightened his grip on the rudder.After seeing who that person was, his heart was beating hard at first, but he calmed down soon.

The people will prevail, it is now evident.If he goes overboard and dies, I needn't grieve—I'll die with him.

Sophia looked at Sean with concern. "Sean, are you worried about him?"

"Why should I worry? I'm not worried at all." Sean said so, but he couldn't help but let the airship descend, trying to find the trace of the person who fell to the ground.

The crisis has been resolved, Sophia threw the binoculars aside, and teased Sean: "I saw his hair, it's blond, very long, and very beautiful. I knew who he was when I saw this. Last time, you were right It's so wrong for him to be so indifferent! You have to let him know how much you care about him! Look at how nervous you are now, if he dies, you must be very sad!" She rolled her eyes and made another guess: " Maybe he pretended to fall to his death, but actually hid, just to make you worry?"

Shine keeps an eye on the street while replying, "If he did, he'd have to be the most idiotic idiot I've ever seen, and he's pretty boring."

Sophia showed a puzzled look.At this moment, Sean noticed something else: a dark mark on the road paved with bluish-white stones, which looked like it was left by a liquid leak.Sean didn't understand why at first, but when he found that the trace became thicker and thicker and extended to the battleship that was forced to land, he understood, and he was surprised and delighted: "It's oil! Battleships use oil as fuel. Yes, not only their balloons were torn, but their fuel tanks were also torn. Do we have any Molotov cocktails?"

"Yes, sir!" The man in the back cabin answered loudly.Actual combat is the best way to train fighters.The man moved without Sean telling him what to do.

Sophia asked Sean: "What are you going to do?"

"Ignite the fire from here, and the flames will spread along with this oil belt, blowing up the battleship. The airbag can be replaced if it is torn, but the explosion of the hull is an irreparable loss." Sean paused for a while. "I guess this is not the main reason why Metatron pretended to fall, but... he was afraid that I would not understand what he meant, so he led me to the front of the clue."

"Oh, you two have such a good relationship! By the way, what did you mean by that sentence just now?"

Sean lifted the airship back into the air.He glanced at Sofia. "Don't you know? Some kind of relationship between the puppet and the owner."

Sophia opened her mouth wide.She froze like this for a while, then suddenly jumped up: "My God! You guys know each other like this! You actually have this kind of relationship! When I saw him last time, I really should have knocked him out with a stick!"

"I remember you were fond of him."

"It's different! He's handsome, rich, nice to you, and more importantly, he'll treat you as an equal couple, which reassures me! But if he sees you as a plaything or something What, that's another matter!" Sophia walked around angrily, her feet stomping on the steel floor.

"We have a very good relationship, don't worry." Sean thought for a while and asked again: "Can I discuss something with your girlfriend?"

"What?" Sophia asked bluntly, obviously not recovering from her anger.

Sean leaned over and whispered a word in the other's ear.Like a deflated ball, Sophia's furious face immediately collapsed.

The forced landing hull was detonated.The violent explosion caused the ground to tremble, and the fireball soared into the sky.The seemingly indestructible hull was torn into shattered pieces of metal, which flew in all directions.

"How many people will cheer today?" Sean watched another battleship make an emergency landing and said to himself, the light in his eyes was astonishingly bright.

Sophia looked ahead. "I'm more interested in knowing when there will be a second negotiation. This time they will agree to our request, right?"

"Maybe." Sean nodded.He agrees with Sofia, but still wants to underestimate the situation.He guessed that the nobles needed someone to do ideological work.
