Chapter 50: Changes (Part II)

"Reinforcements from the Americas?" Bismarck secretly said no, and then sped up the slashing action in his hand again...... Compared to the command knife in Richelieu's hand, the long knife that Bismarck now uses is more like a ship knife suitable for chopping. After all, under the manipulation of nano-level particles, no matter what kind of defense there is in the eyes of the girl, there are flaws...... In this way, in the choice of weapons, you can completely abandon the additional conditions of lightness and speed, and instead only need to strengthen the power of the attack, after all, the flaws or something can be completely disintegrated with just two more slashes, isn't it?

At this time, Bismarck was also extremely glad that he had chosen weapons at the beginning, after all, it was more practical to be able to solve the opponent faster than anything else in such a situation............ If you still can't get her after the arrival of the other party's reinforcements, then the taste of being attacked by the enemy on your back is definitely not comfortable.

"Bismarck doesn't care about her defenses, just cut it down with all her might!" The war knife in her hand continued to slash one after another, but because the other party's attribute that could be roughly classified as [tenacity] did not have the expected effect at all, but the more this happened, the more anxious Bismarck's heart became, and at this moment, King Kong's voice made her refreshed again.

King Kong's ability is [Operational Hardness], so whether it is to strengthen the hardness of his own ship slashing knife, or to use his ability to weaken the enemy, it is absolutely just right, Bismarck undoubtedly has him to gather the strength of his whole body to his right hand, and then accompanied by a blood splash...... Her enemies were finally defeated......

"Whew...... Thank you......" Bismarck, who was gasping for breath because of the exertion, did not forget to turn her head and thank King Kong when she inserted the knife back, and then she suddenly realized that she was probably one of those who had defeated the enemy near the end, and although she had won, the solemn atmosphere in the team had risen instead of falling......

"Don't care, didn't the Admiral say let's help each other on the battlefield desu~~" King Kong is probably the happiest one in the team today, no...... Or rather, this girl looks quite happy at all times.

"Clean up the battlefield! Make sure these shipwives never have the ability to set foot on the battlefield again! As the flagship, Richelieu stared at the direction where the cannonball had just hit, silently calculating the distance between each other in his heart, and shouting orders...... Although it is inevitable to inflict casualties in battle, Richelieu can't do such a thing as a killer when the enemy is completely incapacitated, after all, they are also ship mothers, not those deep sea who have no intelligence and only know how to kill......

"This is Essex, report to the general flagship that I have detected the latest movements of the enemy, and the American Fleet has made a great circle in the Pacific. While evading detection, it will also be used to penetrate into the battlefield where you are now, so please be vigilant......"

"I can already see them with my eyes, and I've just been shelled by them! Never mind...... It's not your fault. Richelieu's tone was a little more angry, but she knew it wasn't Essex's fault. God knows why those guys from the Americas went around in such a big circle, and what is the difference between making such a long voyage in the Pacific Ocean and looking for death? But now it seems that they have been overlucked, and since Essex can find them in this situation, it is clear that they have done their best.

"Essex, now you have Nagato send reinforcements right away, and it's best to attack me except for the necessary defensive forces...... I had a sense of foreboding. ”

"Yes, I see...... But I think it's other than Commander Nagato. The Admiral also has the right to know what happened. ”

"Whatever you want...... Richelieu cut off the communication a little unpleasantly, but the conversation between them had already been relayed by the aircraft carriers, and the ship girls present heard it clearly through those little goblins...... And like Richelieu, their faces didn't look good...... Obviously, a few days ago, he swore that he would let the Admiral stay in the town guard mansion with peace of mind and wait for the news of the victory, but now in the blink of an eye, the situation is beyond the control of himself and the others......

Probably the only thing to be thankful for is that they were able to get rid of the guys from Europe before the reinforcements arrived...... Otherwise, the situation will not have to be more passive.

At this time, the image transmitted through the reconnaissance plane has also been transmitted to the minds of the ship's mothers, but this mirror image only lasted less than half a minute before the reconnaissance plane was destroyed by the anti-aircraft gun, but just by virtue of this glimpse, it was enough to make the alert level in their hearts increase infinitely.

To be honest, the scale of the ship's mother of more than 100 people is definitely not huge, and the figures of destroyers and cruisers interspersed among them make this data a lot more water, but it is such a team that brings people a rather strange feeling...... Probably like a real army......

That's right. It's the army! Although the ship girl has also been called a soldier, both the admirals and the ship girls themselves are extremely clear, compared to the team, they are usually more fighting on their own, especially after the ship girl's level is raised, there will inevitably be a feeling of restraint in the team, so it is not so much that the ship girls are a whole but that they are just friends who fight together.

But the force in front of them is completely different, all kinds of different ship girls are perfectly fused together, whether it is in the march or just against the artillery fire of the reconnaissance aircraft, the cooperation between each ship girl is as natural as a person's left and right hands, so what they will face can be said to be a monster composed of hundreds of ship girls.

"Prepare for shelling!" But it doesn't matter what kind of team it is. It's always time to fight first. So Richelieu commanded all the battleships to aim their guns at the marching team, and then immediately gave the order, "Release!" ”

More than 100 shells fell from the sky, and Richelieu thought that this would at least break up the opponent's formation a little. However, it turned out that she was overthinking. In the face of these artillery, Tetu's ship mother did tacitly disperse to evade each other, and what could not be avoided was intercepted by several nearby ship girls who launched a barrage together.

However, after dispersing, less than a minute later, the formation was re-formed. Every ship's mother seems to have memorized their original position for a long time, like pieces of a puzzle standing in a predetermined position again to reorganize the entire formation.

It felt as if there was an invisible thread behind these shipwives. And these threads eventually converged into a person's hands and became the props for her to manipulate the ship's mother, and the original ship's mother became a marionette with her own existence that was regarded as an enemy, and performed a stage play that had been rehearsed a long time ago......

Somehow, such thoughts lingered in Richelieu's head as soon as they appeared...... (To be continued.) )
