Chapter 281 Plant Carrier Fleet (4K)

The inland sea area, above the sea surface.

A vast fleet of plants sailed in.

Looking around, the plant ships in the fleet were all sorts of strange and wonderful.

Using giant Victoria amazonica leaves with a diameter of 200 meters as decks, the Victoria amazonica pod tower can extend and retract into the water, and the deck sprays high-pressure water jets to help it take off and land. The root network at the bottom incubates "bee swarm plant fighter jets" into the Victoria amazonica aircraft carrier.

The Iron Birch Battleship, with a hull 100 meters long made of carbonized tree trunks, equipped with a triple-mounted hardened seed main gun and a vertical launch system for plant missiles.

The Tornado Hyacinth destroyer features a hollow flower stem hull, a rotating flower spike on top, and the ability to manipulate wind currents.

The giant kelp dreadnought is composed of countless seaweed aggregates and has algal leaf biological missile launch nests and various huge plant main guns.

The hull is shaped like a pinecone, and it is a sea pine minelayer capable of laying a large number of inductive spore mines.

The electric seaweed frigate features a flat, leaf-shaped hull and built-in biocapacitors.

Beneath the surface lies a coral submarine, its form constructed from living coral.

Looking around, the fleet is filled with all sorts of bizarre plant ships, a dazzling sight.

At this moment, the plant fleet is heading towards the hilly area.

The giant blades of the Wanglian aircraft carrier rise and fall with the waves, and the dewdrops condensing on their surfaces refract a prism spectrum in the sunlight. Whenever a surge comes, high-pressure water jets are ejected from the vents at the edge of the deck, forming a rainbow-like fluid barrier around the hull.

The Iron Birch battleships, arranged in battle formation, guarded the flanks of the Royal Lotus aircraft carrier. The roar of their hulls, constructed from carbonized tree trunks, as they cleaved the waves was comparable to a thunderstorm. On the deck, triple-mounted hardened seed guns were preparing for a salvo, the clicking sound of rapidly calcifying seed embryos emanating from inside the barrels like the grinding teeth of some ancient behemoth.

The sea pine minelayers drop spore mines along the way, which then float silently in the seawater, waiting for enemy vehicles to pass by and trigger them to detonate.

Under the shadowy depths, a fleet of coral-like submarines slowly advances, their camouflaged shells changing color with the depth of the water.

Most surprisingly, the giant kelp dreadnought was also sailing underwater. Its 1.2-kilometer-long hull—or rather, its kelp-like structure—was slowly swaying with the ocean currents, its surface layer of rusted barnacle armor constantly peeling off and regenerating, revealing the pulsating supply lines for various main guns beneath.

A fully-organized aerial unit of plants provided escort in the sky.

While deploying combat troops to external locations, Liye urgently convened a meeting with his comrades.

"I didn't expect that before we could even approach them, they would come to us on their own!" Fang Yong said, both amused and annoyed.

"According to reconnaissance reports, the enemy carrier fleet is expected to arrive at the coast of the hilly area in 10 hours," Li Ye said in a low voice. "That means we still have some time."

This time, he naturally planned to have the aircraft carrier fleet confront the enemy.

The air force and Sky Falcon 01 were responsible for intercepting the enemy's escorting fighter group.

The Iron Whale will also be involved in this battle.

"Don't worry, everyone. This level 4 monster civilization isn't as powerful as we think," he said calmly. "This battle will end easily soon."

After the deployment was completed, the Alliance forces set off in a grand procession tomorrow.

A few hours later, the two sides began a fierce battle.

The newly built aircraft carrier fleet of the Tomorrow Alliance has begun to unleash its full firepower.

On the ship's deck, the vertical launch hatches of the missiles popped open simultaneously. Accompanied by the hissing of high-pressure steam, anti-ship missiles shot out like arrows, their tail flames drawing incandescent white trails on the azure sea. After taking off, the missiles quickly adjusted their attitude and rushed straight towards their targets.

The hydraulically driven twin-mounted main guns unleashed a torrent of fire, the muzzle blasts creating towering clouds of water the moment the shells left the barrels. Torpedo tubes fired in quick succession, sending torpedoes darting underwater like sharks.

Meanwhile, on the deck of the aircraft carrier of the End of the Line, the fighter jets were ready and poised to take off.

With an aircraft carrier, Tomorrow's fighter jets can be deployed on it.

As the aircraft carrier's steam catapults roared deafeningly, the deck trembled, and fighter jets were violently propelled into the sky.

The plant-based aircraft carrier fleet also responded with concentrated firepower.

The main guns of the Iron Birch battleship roared deafeningly. As the Hardened Seed shells left the barrel, the bio-armor on their surface carbonized due to the high heat from friction, leaving several parabolic trajectories in the air that emitted blue smoke.

These shells suddenly burst open before hitting their target, releasing thousands of secondary armor-piercing seeds that cover the target bombardment area like a shower of flowers.

Meanwhile, the hyacinth flower spikes atop the destroyer spin rapidly to their maximum speed, manipulating the air currents to create dozens of waterspouts that connect heaven and earth on the sea surface.

The coral-infested submarine launched a series of biological torpedoes, which moved in a serpentine trajectory and were covered with wriggling coral tentacles. Upon impact with their target ships, they not only exploded but also released highly corrosive plant acid.

Meanwhile, the giant kelp dreadnought, which had been submerged in the sea, surfaced, revealing several terrifying main cannons. As the main cannons began to charge, the entire warship began to tremble slightly. Accompanied by several earth-shattering roars, the main cannons opened fire, launching a large number of heavy plant seed shells.

The battle on the sea instantly became incredibly intense.

To Li Ye's surprise, the pressure from the plant civilization's fleet was actually the greatest.

Therefore, he chose to call upon the Sky Falcon 01, which was engaged in aerial combat with the plant-type fighter group, to come to his rescue.

As soon as Li Ye gave the order, a ring of explosive clouds suddenly burst open in the sky.

The Tianjun 01 then pierced through the clouds and swooped down toward the sea.

During its descent, the aircraft's electronic warfare pods activated, and a full-band interference wave spread out in a spherical shape.

The plant fleet was thrown into slight disarray, but quickly returned to normal.

Li Ye keenly noticed this detail.

"Electronic interference waves can actually affect a plant fleet?" he asked, somewhat surprised. "Could it be that the plant ships have bioelectric currents and network connections?"

At a distance of 800 meters from the sea surface, the Tianjun 01 multi-missile bay opened, unleashing a barrage of missiles at the plant warships.

It then smashed straight into the center of the Queen Victoria mothership at supersonic speed, wielding its unsheathed high-frequency vibrating blade and swinging it fiercely!
With a single vertical slash, the lotus-shaped command tower on the deck of the Queen Lotus mothership was sliced ​​open diagonally, spraying out a large amount of fluorescent green sap. At the same time, the rapid-fire machine gun on the left wrist of the machine fired, bullets like crimson whips blasting the deck's air vents into smoking sieves.

Immediately afterwards, the Skyhawk 01 picked up its fully charged high-energy pulse sniper cannon, aimed at the distant giant kelp dreadnought, and fired.

A blue-white beam of light, tens of meters in diameter, streaked across the sea and struck the core of the giant kelp dreadnought directly. The ship was detonated, the entire sea suddenly bulged, and a giant column of steam, thousands of meters high, erupted from the hull.

After firing, the Skyhawk 01 took off again, returning to the aerial battlefield.

The plant carrier fleet was completely thrown off balance by this sudden attack.

But they quickly recovered, and all the damaged ships began rapid self-repair.

The same was true for the most severely damaged giant kelp dreadnought.

Suddenly, it completely disintegrated, turning into countless scattered seaweed. Then, these seaweed began to reconstruct themselves at an astonishing speed, reassembling into the dreadnought.

Although the plant carrier fleet is recovering rapidly, Liye is not too worried.

Because the real killer has arrived. Near the plant carrier fleet, a figure slowly emerges.

That was none other than the Iron Whale, with its city camouflage and signal jamming devices activated.

With the activation of the ripple core gravitational wave, the plant carrier fleet officially entered its demise.

When the first gravitational pull came in, a scene that defied the laws of hydrodynamics appeared on the sea surface.

Centered on the Wanglian aircraft carrier, the sea surface within a radius of several hundred meters instantly caved in into a perfect sphere, with countless seawaters defying gravity and suspended in the air, forming a chilling crystal ball structure.

The entire aircraft carrier twisted and deformed like clay being kneaded by an invisible giant hand. The swarm of nearby fighter jets tried to escape, but were frozen in mid-flight, their wings and fuselages exhibiting a multi-folded structure that defied geometry.

Several Iron Birch battleships nearby opened fire on the Iron Whale, but the shells and missiles were suspended in mid-air by gravity and then bounced back.

They were then also affected by gravity, and the ship's hull was compressed and shredded like documents thrown into a shredder.

The giant kelp dreadnought, which had just been reborn, also met its end, as the gravitational field quickly engulfed it. This 1.2-kilometer-long seaweed aggregate warship underwent a slow and brutal peeling away in the gravitational field. The outer barnacle armor was the first to turn to dust, and then the entire warship began to disintegrate on its own, like a knot being untied.

Throughout the entire process, the sea surface within a one-kilometer radius of the Iron Whale maintained that incredible spherical depression.

The surviving plant-like warships attempted to dive for cover, only to discover that the underwater world was also filled with deadly gravitational vortices. The coral-like submarines, trying to escape by diving deeper, were also caught in the gravitational pull, suddenly stretched into strange, noodle-like shapes. The submarine hulls flowed like melting wax in the distorted space.

Li Ye was on the Iron Whale at that moment and witnessed the whole thing.

He couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

This level 5 item is absolutely amazing!
As long as the Iron Whale sneaks into the vicinity of the plant-themed aircraft carrier fleet, the enemy will surely perish.

They didn't even have the power to fight back.

He looked up and saw that the battle in the air had also been decided.

Under the attack of Mobile Suit Sky Falcon 01, one plant-based fighter after another was shot down.

Just as Li Ye had predicted, the battle would end quickly and easily.

After his gaze casually swept over a small island not far away, Li Ye realized something and immediately ordered the bombers to drop incendiary bombs on the island's vegetation.

The once tranquil and peaceful island was immediately engulfed in flames.

Then, something unusual happened.

Suddenly, the countless plants on the island seemed to come alive, twisting and struggling wildly, even emitting sharp shrieks.

Upon seeing this, Li Ye couldn't help but sneer.

"I knew it would be like this."

The surface of the inland sea area is not devoid of Class 4 vegetation.

The plant civilization deployed many level 4 plants on islands of all sizes, allowing them to blend into the island's vegetation without moving, making them difficult to distinguish from the real plants.

In this way, enemies who unknowingly step onto the island will fall into a trap without warning.

The battle in the Inland Sea area ended quickly, and as usual, Li Ye began to regroup his troops and arrange for people to collect the dropped items.

"Alliance Leader, does this mean we can control this level 4 area?" Fang Yong asked.

Li Ye fell into deep thought.

After these two battles, the pressure from plant civilization was indeed not significant.

It's definitely worth a try.

"This plant civilization's combat strength isn't very high," he thought. "If they could evolve plant-based mobile suits, or develop anti-gravity properties, they might be able to put up a fight against the Tomorrow Alliance."

The resources dropped in this battle are also plentiful.

To Li Ye's surprise, many of the level 4 blueprints that dropped this time were duplicates.

Tier 4 Main Battle Tank Blueprints, Tier 4 Fighter Jet Blueprints, Tier 4 Sniper Rifle Blueprints
He didn't seem particularly disappointed.

These duplicate Level 4 blueprints can be sold to three major world-class organizations, and they're certainly worth a lot of money.

Over the next two days, while controlling operations in three areas, Tomorrow Alliance officially set off towards the Inland Sea.

Whenever they passed an island, Li Ye would deploy bombers to drop incendiary bombs, carrying out a thorough scorched-earth campaign.

During this period, the Tomorrow Alliance forces also engaged in several small-scale battles with the plant civilization.

Perhaps realizing that their opponent was truly formidable, the plant civilization gradually became more subdued and stopped causing trouble.

Li Ye did not let his guard down. While mining resources in the inland sea area, he also arranged for troops to patrol.

Meanwhile, the sixth epic intelligence report was also updated.

6. The Level 3 "Desert Zone" of Xirang Continent contains abundant oil and gas resources. (Intelligence Value: Epic)

[The following is a map showing the distribution of oil and natural gas fields in the desert area (click to view).]

"Huh? Another epic-level resource?" Li Ye asked in surprise.

Upon reflection, he realized that his attention had been almost entirely focused on the damned level 4 plants and giant fish in the desert area, and he hadn't paid much attention to surveying the desert region.

Based on past practice, the natural gas and oil fields extracted this time will probably fetch another two to three million crystals.

You need to plan how to use it properly when you leave the wilderness.

"Why not purchase enough resources to upgrade the Iron Whale to level 3 as well?" he thought. "Either I purchase blueprints to complete the land, sea and air combat forces, or I purchase a large amount of level 4 iron ore to build another mobile suit."

Thinking of level 4 iron ore reminded him of something.

As mentioned in previous intelligence reports, the planet Wayne possesses abundant mineral resources.

Li Ye couldn't help but have a sudden thought.

"Why don't we just buy a space city, staff it, and deploy it to Wayne, where we can mine and explore this Earth-like planet at the same time?"

As he thought about it, he couldn't help but nod repeatedly.

If this plan is successfully implemented, the Tomorrow Alliance will be able to continuously obtain iron ore resources from the planet Wayne, and has also taken its first step in space.

“Let’s do it this way!” he exclaimed excitedly.
