Lord of the Sky City

This time, Rocky was not planning to mess around with just adding reconnaissance ships to his fleet anymore; this time, he intended to purchase a real fleet of warships!

As for his thinking, Zhang Heng was well aware, since Rocky was currently a highly sought-after figure, and his background had already been thoroughly investigated. Many people knew about his deep grudge with Wild Horse City, and under such circumstances, his purpose for buying Armor was self-evident—he was going to war.

So, after taking Rocky to the largest dock, Zhang Heng asked, "City Lord, what kind of warships do you intend to purchase this time?"

"Fifth Generation warships."

Walking into the dock, Rocky, while looking at the giant warships around him, gave his answer. This time, he intended to acquire Fifth Generation warships, which were the most advanced warships available!

"Good, good, my Lord, rest assured, you will definitely find the warships you like here."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Heng immediately showed a smile, then continued to inquire, "My Lord, what class of Fifth Generation warships do you intend to acquire? Do you have any specific requirements?"

The classification of large warships varied greatly, with the smallest being the Escort Ship, and moving upwards were the destroyer, patrol cruiser, battleship, and the largest, the floating mothership. Up to the Third Generation, the highest calibre of warships were destroyers, but starting from the Fourth Generation, patrol cruisers and destroyers became available, and among all warships, the most enormous— the floating mothership—was unique to the Fifth Generation.

Since Rocky intended to buy a Fifth Generation warship, naturally, he had a wider range of types to choose from. Excluding the largest floating mothership which he couldn't afford, theoretically, he had the capability to choose any type of warship; the only difference was whether to buy one or ten.

However, to be honest, Rocky didn't quite understand all these matters because, prior to this, he had only ever bought one large warship and didn't quite know how to build a fleet centered entirely around large warships, so afterwards he glanced at Zhang Heng.

"Steward Zhang, this calls for your help once more."

As the steward of the Apple Tree Corporation, Zhang Heng's capabilities naturally needed no further mention, so he definitely knew how to select and pair up ships to assemble a fleet.

Indeed this was the case, so after Rocky finished his statement, Zhang Heng smiled and then began to speak:

"City Lord, since you trust me, I'll take the liberty to offer some suggestions..."

"To build a regular fleet, what you first need to choose is the core of the fleet, centered around one or several main warships and additionally escorted by several small to medium-sized warships to form a battle group. Only by this can the warships unleash their maximum power in aerial combat."

While saying this, Zhang Heng had already brought Rocky next to a giant warship, then he pointed at the warship behind him and said, "Sir, this warship, is our Chamber of Commerce's independently developed and manufactured Fifth Generation Dominator Type 2 battleship."

"Battleship...?"

Hearing this, Rocky looked towards the warship Zhang Heng was pointing at, then couldn't help but take two steps back, because the warship was so large that he couldn't see its entirety without stepping back!

And only after he had stepped back two or three steps did he finally see the warship in its entirety. Well, the warship was at least three hundred meters long, truly a behemoth. Its body was dark and shiny, reflecting a metallic luster unique to metal, making the entire warship appear almost like a small mountain.

Is this... a battleship?

Battleship, the true dominator of the skies!

Rocky had naturally heard of such a renowned name, but this was his first time seeing what a battleship looked like. They were said to be flying fortresses in the sky, and now it seemed it was indeed true. Not to mention the firepower of this warship, just its size alone was enough to justify the term "fortress". Compared to it, escort ships, which were about a hundred meters in length, looked like tiny shrimps.

"Steward Zhang, are you suggesting I buy this battleship?"

"Indeed."

Noticing Rocky looking at him, Zhang Heng nodded affirmatively, "City Lord, since you wish to form a powerful fleet, then this Dominator Type 2 battleship can definitely serve as the core of the fleet and will absolutely satisfy you."

While speaking, Zhang Heng also stepped back two steps, standing with Rocky, both of them looking up at the mentioned battleship:

"City Lord, the Dominator Type 2 battleship is three hundred and ten meters long, equipped with three layers of reinforced armor. Even without deploying the defensive net, it can withstand magic energy power of less than 2000 from main cannon attacks, and with the defensive net deployed, any attack below 7000 can be easily resisted."

"The Dominator Type 2 is also equipped with the most advanced mana tracking radar today. Even in poor weather conditions, it can accurately scan the number and location of enemies, thus gaining the upper hand in battle; this warship also carries our Chamber of Commerce's exclusive early-warning technology, which can detect in advance if it has been locked onto by an enemy's main cannon, allowing for preemptive evasion. And if evasion isn't quick enough, there's no need to worry, because this warship is also equipped with an interference system, which can use magical energy to disrupt the enemy's aim."

Since it's a fifth-generation warship, and a battleship at that, the equipment of the Dominator Type 2 naturally far surpasses that of third-generation escort ships. This warship is not only massive in size, but the technology it carries is also the most advanced today, so much so that Rocky was somewhat unable to understand.

Aim?

Lock-on?

He had never even heard these words before.

As he was somewhat confused, Zhang Heng continued to introduce, "City Lord, what I've just mentioned are only some features of this warship, but as a battleship known as a flying fortress, its powerful firepower is its greatest strength."

"The reason I suggest you use this warship as the core of the fleet is precisely because the firepower of the Dominator Type 2 is indeed formidable. This warship is equipped with a total of fifty magic cannons."

Fifty magic cannons!

When Zhang Heng mentioned this number, Rocky was startled. How could a warship carry so many magic cannons?

To his incredulity, Zhang Heng just smiled slightly and then began to explain in detail, "Among these fifty magic cannons, there are twenty magic cannons with magic energy power of 1500, and twenty rapid-fire magic cannons with a magic power of 1000 points. Their power might not be very high, but they excel in firing speed, averaging two shots per minute, which can quickly suppress the enemy with firepower during combat."

"What's even more important, all of the above magic cannons are equipped with the latest generation of aiming systems. With the help of the aiming system, the accuracy will increase exponentially."

"Besides, the Dominator Type 2 also carries nine secondary cannons with magic energy power reaching 5000 points, of course, also equipped with aiming systems. As for the battleship's main cannon..."

At this point, Zhang Heng paused for a moment, then his face revealed a proud smile:

"Although the Dominator Type 2's main cannon is only one, it is one of the most powerful main cannons of today, known as the Sky-piercing Cannon, with magic energy power reaching ten thousand points!"
