Chapter 10: The Power of Wales
Jiqi stood slightly awkward on the water, trying to adapt to the water glider under his feet.
This is the first time he has experienced Hongda on the surface of the sea, and there is no limit at a glance. This is something that cannot be experienced in the simulated actual combat of the academy, loneliness and helplessness. If he didn't have the girl next to him, Jiqi felt that he might not dare to go alone.
The surface glider is made by cute elves that allow humans to have the same surface walking ability as the ship girl. It is said that most of the technological products that humans cannot understand are the work of them, such as the machines that can create the ship girl and the food changer. However, Jiqi did not believe these rumors, and he always believed that the ship girl was not created, but a creature that already existed in this world, and even if it was created, it was God, not these tiny elves, who did not have the wisdom and power to create life. Just like the deep sea, no one knows where they came from, and no one knows who created such a near-perfect race, ruthless and cruel like a machine that never tires, and never dies to achieve its goals.
But Jiqi feels that in the end, it will be humans who will win, not the deep sea, which represents perfect creatures. For some reason, that's how he felt, and although he couldn't prove it, he was convinced. Humanity will emerge victorious, even if the end is bleak, and it will still be humanity who is standing. Jiqi looked at the sea full of unknown dangers and clenched the knife in his hand slightly.

"Admiral, I'll stand behind me later, and I'll hand over my back to you." Wales said.
In order to keep Jiqi as safe as possible, he had to stand in a place where he had all the protection. And Wales is behind the best choice. In the front are three combined main guns, where the firepower output is the most powerful, while in the back are more than a dozen secondary guns and countless anti-aircraft guns, and the firepower is not weak at all. Wales believes that unless she encounters countless Deadpools of the Deep Sea or the terrifying firepower of the Deep Sea Flagship, she is 100% sure that she will protect the Admiral behind her.
"yes, I see." Jiqi nodded. He knew that the girl was protecting in disguise, and he went to the battlefield to make himself stronger, not to die. Unless he has to do it, he will not break away from the girl's protection and face the deep sea alone. Hot blood also depends on the occasion, not all the time.
"So when am I going to use the bonus?" Set of prayers.
"Right now." Wales replied, her eyes sharp, not at all lazy. "There are a few deep-sea Deadpools in front of them, cruising on the surface of the sea, and they seem to be patrol troops."
Jiqi closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his pupils became blue, like a vast starry sky, secluded and quiet.
Everyone is tested for eligibility to become a Governor before enrolling. And the most basic thing is to have the so-called bloodline, which is a special factor in the blood, which can provide blessings for the ship's mother in all aspects, just like the priest in the game, adding various buffs to the combatants in front, so that their combat ability can be significantly improved. Only such a person is qualified to become an admiral, and can become a help to the ship's mother, not a drag.
And early cultivation will lead to the emergence of this ability. It is not difficult to understand why most of the admirals come from prestigious families, as they monopolize this method, making the profession a symbol of dignity. And Jiqi is an exception, he has no cultivation, as if he was born with this kind of power that can calm people down abnormally.
As if a bucket of ice water had been poured on a hot summer day, the rest of Jiqi's thoughts were swept away, and the world in his pupils became different in his eyes. He could hear the faint sound of the waves in the distance, and he could see the dark shadows cruising on the surface of the sea thousands of kilometers away. The whole world seemed to be unveiled and presented to him as it really was. It's as if you have ascended the throne and become king, and you can control everything.
Wales is also clearly feeling the change, as if they are becoming stronger and more confident, not as if, as if they are. The speed, firepower, etc. have been significantly improved compared with before. So this is the Admiral's bonus? Wales murmured softly, clenching her fists, and the three main guns behind her slowly slid and reoriented, their hollow and angry muzzles aimed at the front.
Flames bloomed in the narrow chamber of the cannon, and the shells weighing hundreds of kilograms were pushed out of the muzzle by the powerful kinetic energy, like a red lotus in full bloom, and the rotating body of the bullet roared towards the ignorant enemy with the flames.
Wales fired, and she's not the kind of person who will wait for her moment. As long as the range is sufficient, she will strike first. It doesn't matter what you are, just shoot through.
Range is justice, caliber is truth. This is the principle that all battleships believe in, I have a longer range than you, that is, I fire before you, and the caliber is larger than you, that is, I sink later than you. No one can face this 14-inch main gun directly, even if the opponent is in the deep sea.
Cannonballs roared through the air with a thunderous roar, like a tiger breaking free from its cage, and pounced on the enemy with a fierce wind.
Cruising on the water, Deadpool noticed the loud noise and raised his head slightly. Their hollow eyes left them with the last images.
Shells with fire obscured the sky, and sharp bullets pierced their outer armor like merciless blades. The violent explosion caused by the collision instantly raised the surrounding temperature by hundreds of degrees, igniting a fierce flame, mercilessly judging all the guilty, and no one could escape the punishment of Wales.
Deadpool vanished into the world without making a sound, leaving only shards of armor floating after the bombardment and a patch of scarlet blood flowing on the surface of the sea, proving that they once existed.
Jiqi was slightly stunned, this was the first time he had faced such powerful firepower, and Deadpool in the distance couldn't even touch them, so he was solved by Wales with one shot. At this moment, he had a more obvious understanding of the firepower of Wales, and the battleship that could change the tide of battle with one shot was indeed not just a casual talk.
"And that's the end of the fight?" Jiqi was a little dumbfounded, shouldn't there be any fighting bayonets, show operations or something, why is it all at once? It's too, too fast.
"Otherwise, what else do you want?" The girl pouted, "Do you want me to rush in front of them with a battleship, raise my fist and knock them over one by one?" β
"No, I just didn't expect it, I didn't expect your firepower to be so strong." Ji Qi carefully prepared his words, he didn't know how to describe the shock in his heart at this moment. The deep sea, which has always threatened the future of mankind, was killed in an instant, even though the lowest level of the deep sea at that time - Deadpool. But even so, it was unbelievable for Jiji.
"At that time, of course, I was the battleship Prince of Wales, synonymous with firepower." The girl said proudly.
"So, our first expedition is over?"
"If you want to continue, I don't have a problem with that." The girl waved her hand, an expression that she could do whatever she wanted.
"Then we have nothing to gain?"
"Yes, an expulsion and transformation core." The girl pointed to the sea ahead of her, which had been bombarded by her, "There's a core of expulsion transformation there, if you want it, go get it." β
Wales was a battleship and had no interest in such a transformation core. But Jiqi was excited, as if he had met a great good thing.
"Transform the core, how can you not have such a good thing, hurry up, let's pick up the core." Jiqi was very happy, he didn't expect to come out casually to paddle once, and there was no output at all, and he could burst out of the core. Could it really be God's favor and the explosion of character? Ji Qi said with a smile in his heart.
"Okay, if you want it, go get it." The girl held her forehead, she really wanted to tell the naΓ―ve admiral that there could be several small battles in a small battle to expel and transform the core, and this was simply a rotten street thing, and no one wanted it when it was thrown on the ground. What is really precious is the more advanced battle transformation core and aircraft carrier transformation core, which are rare existences, and they may not be able to see the shadow in several battles.
A young man with a happy face and a girl with a helpless face walked on the sea, and the midday sun dragged their shadows long, leaving a cheerful laugh.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
The rain was drenched, and the young admiral stood in the rain, drenched through. His eyes were hollow, and he looked at the red-stained sea, and he wailed silently in pain.
He didn't know why it was like this, it was clear that everything was executed according to the perfect plan, everything should have developed according to his plan, shouldn't it be his own fleet that won the deep sea and made his debut without flaws? But why is it the way it is now? He was completely annihilated, a complete victory turned into a complete defeat, and the turning point came so suddenly like a rainstorm.
The young Admiral covered his young and immature face with his hands, hoping that everything was an illusion and that it would return to normal when he opened his eyes. But everything is just his self-deception, the reality is like a cold-blooded and ruthless teacher, using blood and tears to teach you to understand the cruelty of the world and break the beauty of fairy tales.
The mighty deep sea, with its suffocating fighting abilities, came like a stick, knocking the new Admiral unconscious, shattering his ridiculous illusions.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
The old man opened his eyes suddenly, this was the memory of the past he had dreamed of countless times, when he was in high spirits, as an excellent new admiral, he was given high hopes by the family, and he thought he had a bright future. But the cruel facts made him realize that there were no heavenly pride, chosen people on the battlefield, and some only killed and fell. This is the natural law of evolution, the fittest survive, and the unfit go out. It's brutal but effective.
From that day on, the young admiral began to cling to the strong, eager to witness the moment when the deep sea stood at the top of the pyramid. Like a stepping stone, helping Wang to reach the top step by step.
"The king of kings, the world's achievements dare to convince the heavenly prince. There was nothing else, but there was a desolation. The old man's ears resounded with the loud sound of the rain washing over the land, and the young admiral's frantic whispers in the rain.
