291 Chapter 291
The cannon fired. But before the cannonball reached them, Aldred opened a portal that led outside where he had set up a teleportation point randomly. His plan was to destroy the ship from within and when things were dangerous, he could simply escape, but his wives and soldiers came to rescue him so he had to change the plan.
Meanwhile, York was frowning at the weird portal. Her mothership was covered by a magic field that blocked a teleportation spell or a portal spell. Only someone with space-elemental affinity could open up a portal within her ship.
‘Is this kid a space-elementalist? That’s not possible. They only exist in legend.’
York was about to fire the cannons again, but Aldred raised his hand and shouted: “To the divine dimension!”
A flash of light enveloped Aldred and his friends before they vanished.
York was shocked. “That kid… he has to be a space magician.”
…
Inside the divine dimension, Aldred and his group appeared in the sky and they crashed to the ground.
“Why did you guys come?”
“We were worried about you,” Mary said.
“And ‘let’s approach a powerful mothership that can kill Diamond Ranks’ is what you think of?”
“We do not consider risk. And I don’t care if I have to die to save you,” Mary said.
That silenced Aldred. He looked down, deep in thought. “Right, I am sorry. Thank you for trying to save me.”
“I forgot that he can enter the divine dimension for a while,” Mareona said. “And even teleport using the teleportation points. You got three teleportation points to use right?”
“Yes, and I can put them anywhere. I put one in Folineley, so I can go there whenever I want, and open a portal for my golem army to come.”
“So did we just break your plan?” Sophia asked.
Aldred sighed. “I am planning to destroy the ships from within, and then escape through my divine dimension. I even plan to join the Red Skull Pirate and go to their secret Red Skull island. So the answer to your question is yes, Sophia. You did break my plan.”
“We’re sorry, Aldred,” Sophia said. “I believe we just want to be useful to you. All this time, you have been doing the heavy lifting.”
“I never said you are useless. Staying by my side is enough. You guys don’t know how grateful I am to have you as friends and wives, huh?”
His woman blushed while Bartrem and the soldiers felt touched.
“So what do we do now?” Stella asked.
“We have to return to the Mother of Destruction. Our fleet is still fighting against the pirates.”
“You know what, Aldred. Since you can put the teleportation points anywhere, and you can open up a portal led to them anytime, why don’t you set up one in the pirate’s mothership, and then open a portal in front of our main cannon?” Mary said.
Aldred widened his eyes. “I didn’t think of that.”
Even though Aldred put intelligence in his status, his creativity was still lacking. Ideas were created by creativity, intelligence was only a tool to solve complex problems and comprehend complicated concepts.
Sadly, he couldn’t increase creativity points. If he could, he didn’t know how many wild ideas he would think of in the future.
“You guys stay here,” Aldred said. “I will set up a teleportation point in their mothership and come back.”
Aldred disappeared, and a few minutes later, he came back into the divine dimension.
“Okay, let’s return.” Aldred nodded to them.
Aldred opened a map. This map was one of the functions given by the divine dimension. It was a 2D map, but there was a 3D function in it as well.
It showed the ocean with the pirates’ fleet and the Destroyer’s Fleet.
“The dimension has a map?” Stella asked in curiosity.
“Yes, I can even move my teleportation points. Look at this dot. This is my teleportation located on one of the pirate’s motherships. Now I will move it to a place I have visited before.”
Aldred tapped and dragged the dot and moved it to his own mothership.
“So what would happen if the mothership moved to a place you never visited before?” Stella asked.
“Then I simply cannot teleport there. The map only shows the region I have visited.”
“Wait, so that means you can teleport to any place you have visited?”
“Yep. Though I have to move my teleportation points to do that.”
“Then what if the mothership moves while you’re putting the teleportation point on it?”
“I think the teleportation point will move with it as well.”
“How is that possible?”
“I don’t even know myself. And don’t forget that we cannot enter the dimension immediately after we exit. There is a 5-minutes cooldown. It was 24 hours before, but since I leveled up it keeps on reducing.”
“Five minutes is not that long.”
“That’s correct. But in battle, it can be forever. Anyway, let’s return now. We will destroy the pirates and leave this ocean. I have a treasure to hunt for.”
They all vanished from the divine dimension and appeared on the command bridge of the mothership.
“My Lord! You are saved!” Burchard greeted.
“Yes, I am saved indeed.”
“You don’t look very happy.”
Everyone looked down in shame except Aldred. That confused Burchard. Weren’t they going out to save Aldred? Why did they look embarrassed?
“Enough chit-chat, Commodore. Tell me the situation.”
“Many of our warships are being sunk. In the last 3 hours, we have lost 4 cruisers, 3 destroyers, and 6 frigates. None of our submarines have been sunk, fortunately.”
The ship shook as a loud explosion reverberated.
“The magic barrier has been penetrated a couple of times, and their attacks dealt significant damage to the mothership.”
“Wait here,” Aldred said as he left the command room.
Burchard was confused.
“Just wait,” Stella said to him with a smile.
Soon after, Aldred teleported back into the command center. “You can fire now, Burchard.”
“But we cannot shoot when the barrier is still activated.”
“Just fire our 6th main cannon.”
Burchard obeyed the command even though he was still skeptical. He activated the command crystal and fired the 6th cannon.
Suddenly, the projection on the map showed that the Red Devil Skull mothership was damaged.
“How could this happen?”
Meanwhile, Aldred was grinning when the plan worked.
