"Visually, I can already capture the shape of the UK. - Above. Musashi, who was making a lot of preparations for the British side, set his sights on the front.

On the other side, in England, is a vast land floating above the sea. You can see the blue-black shape of the earth as if the plates were placed on top of each other, and the outline of stalactites made from the base.

…… It is a floating island country with a total length of 31 kilometers from north to south, 30 kilometers from east to west, and 4 kilometers up and down.

Like Musashi, in order to solve the problem of weight dispersion and distortion, the land was not a single rock, but a movable structure that connected countless crusts together to form a four-story floating island. Musashi's anchorage took place at the dry port at the mouth of the Thames, where they had to circle around Britain to reduce their speed and let them see if they were disarmed. Because of some simple trade going on at this time, it takes three days to finally enter the Thames.

“…… But. "Musashi" thought.

Although inertial navigation gives the impression of a conscious reduction in speed, it is actually sailing at a speed of more than 120 knots per hour. Even Musashi, which has an average length of more than seven kilometers, can move the equivalent of its entire length in about two minutes.

It is already less than forty kilometers from the UK. If you just arrive, it will take you more than ten minutes. The blue-black islands reveal their own structure, and the forests and townscapes boast of their appearance.

But there's a catch. Musashi's speed did not slow down.

…… I had to go around the UK and reduce my speed. And the large ring takes about two weeks, "Musashi" judges. I guess I can't do simple trade on the way.

And then. Right now. From the opposite side, on the British side, several shadows of the ship could be seen.

It is a pilot ship and frigate on the British side as a pilot. Here, too, the flag of the bridge department of Musashi was hoisted to lead the way.

"This ship Musashi starts now. will sail into the circle of British territorial waters. In order to enter the British circular orbit to reduce the speed, the ship will follow the instructions of the British side and begin to sail around the United Kingdom. - Above. ”

At the same time, the sound of the god was transmitted to "Musashi" through the common channeling belt. As a symbol of the Reformation, a representation frame consisting of a cross with a box attached to it spreads out everywhere.

"To the extreme east, the ships belonging to the Musashi Ariadust Academy, Musashi inform ......!" A deep female voice rang out.

The word had reached the starboard side of the side, as well as the high-speed Clay chuck, which was about to sail side-by-side and start turning back. Clay chucks, with several cannons piled on both sides, stabbed forward like guns for high-speed sailing, creating an arc of waves in the air.

But. The voice heard next contained a sharp tone. Is that......

"This is the frigate USS Cromwell, which belongs to Oxford College in England. The captain is Grace, who belongs to the same academy? O'Marly. - A warning in the name of the Fairy Queen's Shield! ”

"This ship orders your ship to stop immediately! Although your ship has invaded British territory, because you are in a state of battle, and your relationship with the Three Conquests of Spain and the Holy Union is not transparent, the British will not be able to coordinate with the Far East! If you don't stop it immediately—"

Speaking of which, pause. Then, in one breath, he finished the unfinished words: "Britain will stop your ship by force!" ”

Then, in the next moment when the declaration fell, it was as if to prove that what he said was true. "Musashi" saw it. In front of Shinagawa on starboard side, four shadows flew out from the "Cromwell". Every shadow is human. As if guiding them, four vines sped out of Grace's ship.

"They crossed the buffer restraint of wind protection and inertia, dug through it, and broke it.

The sound of muffled destruction was like a cloth rising in the wind, and the sound of wood shattering sounded one after another. Then, in an instant, Shinagawa was dyed white by the fog inside his buffer system.

"Enemy attack......! Number four! The identification is -- "Shinagawa" made an announcement in the building.

"The Oxford Academy, the Students' Union, and the President's Union - 'The Queen's Shield'!"

Although the number of enemies is only four, they are all high-ranking powerhouses who support the country. So, the only one who can fight against them is ......

"Relatively! If you can handle it, be prepared! - Above. ”

On the deck of the transport ship that was being towed by the Okutama, the people who heard Musashi's words of response through the psychic spirit immediately erupted into a cry of bitterness after a moment of silence.

At this time, Knight looked at the bow side of the ship and said, "The problem is on the battlefield side, the bow side is equivalent to bare hands." ”

“Jud。” Mitodella nodded. Her golden pupils looked at Musashi's destination, and then ......

"Who's going to ...... the bow of the ship!?"

The transport ship was towed in the air at the rear of Okutama by a towing belt. As if recognizing this fact, Mitodella glanced into the air for a moment and gritted her teeth.

Now, in the face of the attack of the three expeditions to Spain, there is the actual main force of Musashi on this transport ship, which has become the main battlefield of the attack. Not only are there people from the former guards, but even the deputy commander Yan Zhen, the deputy chief assistant to the second generation, and the special agents Dian Zang and Knight, who are also there.

…… But almost all of them down there are support staff......

"I'll go down now!"

"Please stop. Judging by the judgment, it is already impossible to catch up. - Above. ”

Just as she was about to run, Mito Della saw a frame in front of her that reflected Musashi's face. So, Mito Della her, of course, asked: "Pourqoui (why)!?" ”

"Jud., it is impossible to stop the ship at once, and conversely the ship will be in the very close range of Britain in three minutes. Until then, the British side can stop the ship, and we can prevent it from happening, judging that this composition will be formed.

Faced with this, because there is only a short period of three minutes before the attack will be launched by the powerful. Even if they start to go to the bow side to stop them now, they can't catch up. And. Your transport ship is given buffer control independent of the Musashi side. Although it is possible to disarm or destroy part of it when moving this way, it will lag behind the British approach due to the attitude control and safety behind the transport ship. - Above. ”

"That's ......"

As he spoke, a new frame opened, and the torii-type frame was reflected in the frame of Neshin.

"That is to say, all that is to be done is to readjust the personnel on the Musashi side to use it for the British. That's it. ”

Mito Della looked ahead, indicating that the frame of Neshin Yuan sighed.

"Three minutes, I have to ask the people here. The transport ship should hurry up and rescue the wounded, right? Because. Whether or not the wounded will stand up when you land will make a big difference in the perception of this battle. ”

Neshin said with a blank expression, but his gaze moved back and forth as if he was observing the crowd here.

"I'm sorry, but there were a lot of injured people."

Hearing his words, Mitodella felt worried about him in her heart. Because he has a combat identity called a knight, he can also understand the meaning of the duties that a military advisor carries.

…… It's going to be a very hard time for the military advisor to go ahead.

Although they withstood the attack, many wounded appeared. Towns were destroyed. There were also some places where there were incomplete functions, and there were also losses in the transportation of goods. These responsibilities should have been shared by the student council and the superintendent as the upper echelons. But the heaviest responsibility is still given by the Neshen Yuan who issued instructions and permissions for all employees to act.

Around, many of the main forces on the transport ship understood this. So, Mitodella exchanged glances with Masamune, the second generation, and Knight, and then looked at Neshinhara.

"It's not time for the military advisor to apologize?"

Mito Della said with a wry smile. It would be rude for a strategist to express his inner worries at a stage like this, and it shouldn't be the work of a knight who should trust his strategist. So

"If all the defenses are over, we can hold a victory festival a little bit, so that we can communicate with the British.

In this way, whether we are injured or damaged, it is good to be an excuse to make up for the loss. ”

"It looks like the knights like glory." Even Neshin said this with a wry smile, and suddenly, Mitodella noticed a change in the scenery behind him.

"Neshinhara, do you mean—"

"Jud., I'm about to take on it. Although I wanted to put it all on Bertoni for this errand, he had no power to deal with the Chamber of Commerce and Industry. If it becomes a head-on battle, the military advisor will no longer have the need to command a large number of people, and it will be easy for the military advisor to be alone. ”

"But ......" is dangerous, Mitodella was about to say this, but the other party said it first.

"-Of course you do? Wounded appeared after the attack, and the streets were damaged. Because unlike the Battle of Mikawa, you have to pay so much damage and get nothing, so if you continue like this, you will be asked, "What the hell is the military advisor doing?" Therefore, the military advisor must also work well, and he must let them see that he is doing his best and coping with the past.

In this period, it is necessary to avoid the criticism of the student council and the president as a starting point. It was precisely because the Far East was heading for neutral Britain that it was as uneasy as possible not to paint an uneasy outlook on it. After saying it in one breath. He let out a long sigh.

-- Three minutes. It's a long time. ”

After saying that, Neshen turned off the telepathic representation box with a wave of his hand, and concentrated on running, no longer continuing to contact Mitodra.

And here, Inneshen turned off the Tongshen Expression Box and no longer had contact with himself and others, plus now he has no way to go to that battlefield. Therefore, Mitodella, Zhengchun, the second generation, Knight and others, according to what Neshenhara just said, concentrated on treating the wounded on the transport ship.

However, while they were treating the wounded, Yan Zhen, who had been listening to the sidelines and did not speak, spoke: "Icarus, you are helping me take care of Herason." Vita, come with me to meet an old friend I haven't seen in a long time. ”

As he spoke, Yan Zhen opened his gap under the gaze of everyone. Then, before everyone present could react, he took Vita's hand and walked into the gap.

Then, when the figures of Yan Zhen and Weta completely submerged into the gap, the gap immediately closed into a thin line and dissipated into the air. (To be continued......)
