Chapter 1270 Hidden Reefs Here
"Wh...what?! Full speed ahead?!"
Elizabeth was completely stunned when she heard Lin Zhen's order. She looked at Lin Zhen as if he were a madman, her beautiful face filled with disbelief, shock, and horror!
"Your Highness! You...you're not joking, are you?!"
"Going full speed ahead in this godforsaken place where visibility is less than ten meters?! Are you trying to send our entire fleet crashing into those unseen reefs?!"
She was really about to break down.
She thought the Eastern man in front of her must be crazy!
He knew absolutely nothing about navigation! He had no idea what it meant to sail at full speed in such dense fog where you couldn't see your hand in front of your face!
That's not bravery, that's suicide!
"Who told you there were reefs here?"
However, Lin Zhen remained completely unmoved in the face of her questioning, which was filled with panic and doubt.
He simply gazed at her quietly, his deep eyes gleaming with an absolute confidence and powerful aura that was impossible to look directly at.
"Elizabeth, have you forgotten?"
"This black fog was created by humans."
"Since it is man-made, it must have a purpose."
"Do you think those East India Company guys hiding behind the scenes, going to such lengths to create such a huge mess, just so we'd crash and burn on the reefs?"
"No." Lin Zhen shook his head, a mocking and disdainful sneer curling at the corner of his mouth.
"They're not that stupid."
"Their real purpose in creating this black fog is only one."
"That is, to trap us here."
"Let us wander around this maze like a swarm of headless flies, wasting all our supplies and patience."
"Then, when we are exhausted and demoralized, they will wait in ambush and launch a fatal attack from an unexpected place!"
Lin Zhen's analysis was like a wake-up call, instantly clearing Elizabeth's mind, which had been consumed by fear and panic.
Yes!
How could she forget such a simple principle!
This black fog was a huge psychological trap from the very beginning!
Their purpose was not at all to make them run into the reef.
Rather, it was to make them stop moving forward due to fear and the unknown, thus gradually falling into the enemy's perfectly designed encirclement!
Having figured this out, a layer of cold sweat instantly appeared on Elizabeth's beautiful face.
She knew that she had just made another fatal mistake.
Once again, she was intimidated by the enemy's seemingly powerful appearance.
If it weren't for this Eastern man in front of me, who always maintains absolute calm and rationality at the most crucial moments...
She might really drag the entire fleet into an abyss of no return because of her momentary cowardice!
"Then...then Your Highness, what do you mean..." Her voice carried a hint of inquiry and reliance that she herself was unaware of.
“It’s very simple.” A sharp, cold glint, like that of a hawk, flashed in Lin Zhen’s eyes.
"Since they want us to stop, then we'll defy them!"
"Aren't they trying to trap us in this cage?"
"Then we'll use the fastest speed and the strongest force, before their self-righteous encirclement is fully formed!"
"Hit it hard, smash it out!"
Lin Zhen's words were filled with boundless domineering power and an unquestionable determination!
Like a red-hot branding iron, it was fiercely branded onto Elizabeth's heart!
Her heart, which was originally filled with fear and unease, was instantly ignited by an unprecedented surge of fighting spirit and heroism!
Crash it out!
That's right!
They are the mighty and invincible Great Qian Allied Fleet!
They were an invincible army that could easily conquer even the so-called "most fortified city in the world" of Japan with a few words!
How could we be terrified by such a small patch of black mist?!
"I understand, Your Highness!"
Once again, a fierce madness and bloodlust, belonging to the pirate queen, ignited in Elizabeth's sapphire-like eyes!
Without any further hesitation, she turned around abruptly and, in a hoarse voice filled with queenly dominance, roared wildly at the messenger outside the door!
"Pass on my order!"
"Full fleet, raise sails! Full helm!"
"Target! Directly ahead!"
"Full speed ahead, you bastard!"
"Smash everything, anything that dares to stand in our way!"
"oh--!"
Elizabeth's command, filled with boundless madness and fighting spirit, rang out.
After a long period of silence, the entire massive black fleet, resembling a moving sea city, finally erupted once again with an angry roar that could make the entire ocean tremble!
One after another, enormous warships, entirely black, with their huge, bat-wing-like black sails, were instantly billowed by the strong sea wind!
The ship's bow, with its incredibly sharp edges and massive ram, resembled a series of black death scythes from the deepest hell!
At a speed that was almost suicidal and insane!
They charged headlong into that endless darkness, filled with the unknown and death!
In the captain's cabin.
Murong Yan clung tightly to Lin Zhen's arm, feeling the deck beneath her feet violently rocking due to the full-speed sailing.
Although her stunningly beautiful face was still somewhat pale, her beautiful phoenix eyes were filled with unprecedented excitement and stimulation!
She likes this feeling!
I love this kind of extreme madness—betting your fate and the man you love on a high-stakes gamble full of unknowns!
The Phoenix Descent dress, her only nightgown, clung tightly to her increasingly voluptuous and alluring curves due to her pregnancy, accentuating her breathtakingly perfect figure amidst the violent turbulence. The five-zhang-long (approximately 10 meters) long, dark gold brocade train billowed and surged like a black tide with the ship's rocking in the cramped captain's cabin. The colossal phoenix embroidered with real gold thread seemed to come alive in the violent rocking! Its eyes widened, filled with the same madness and fighting spirit as its master!
"Husband," she gently rested her head on Lin Zhen's shoulder, her voice filled with a childlike curiosity and anticipation, "Do you think we can break through this time?"
"Of course." Lin Zhen smiled and pulled her closer into his arms.
He looked out the window at the thick black fog rushing past, a mysterious smile flashing in his deep eyes.
"Because I had already prepared another super 'surprise' for them that they would never expect."
