Chapter 28: The Importance of Life and Title
Thirty-three days through another world, cloudless
"Lord Admiral, the target is starting to shift direction, and it is now heading towards 2 o'clock"
Z16's calm voice came from the side, and Lilan's eyes narrowed when he heard this, and his pale blue pupils were cast on the distant horizon.
But...... The distance of nearly 15km was still too much for Lilan, and he could only vaguely capture the darkness on the blue ocean through the water elemental vision.
"What about distance?"
"The straight-line distance from the 'base' is 44.7 km, the error is 2.3 km, and the straight-line distance from the target is 14.8 km, the error is 0.5 km."
“…… I know, give a signal to Ninghai behind, and we will move forward as fast as possible."
"Yes!"
If you just want to sink this deep-sea habitat ship, Li Lan can let Ning Hai and Z16 stay silent and ambush on the north coast of the "base", and directly bombard the ship with guns and ships in the moment of passing, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the deep-sea habitat ship to sink at that distance, but the problem is that Li Lan does not dare to let the deep-sea habitat ship know about his existence at all.
More precisely, they did not dare to let them know about the existence of the "base".
You know, there is the only hope for Lilan on that island - the builder, and there is currently no way to resist the invasion of deep-sea habitat ships except for Ninghai and Z16.
If the deep-sea habitat ship discovers that there are other people on this island, under a direct round of ultra-long-distance shelling, not to mention whether the builder can be saved, and loses the only "base", Lilan will have no other place to prepare at all.
Because of this concern, Lelan gave up the plan to start a war directly on the island, and instead chose to use fuel and quietly follow the patrolling deep-sea ship, attacking some distance from the island.
What they were guarding against was never the "base", but another town guard mansion that Li Lan didn't know the specific location of now, and if it was sunk on this patrol line, the first thing they thought of should only be that town guard mansion.
"Now that we're able to confront them head-on, it shouldn't be a problem for me to add a little trouble......
"Proceed at maximum speed, as long as you attract the attention of the target, and do not engage in any engagement with the target unless you are forced to do so"
"Yes!"
The deep-sea habitat ship and the human and the ship mother are completely mortal enemies, when he first came to this world, Li Lan almost died inexplicably because of a call for help, as long as the encounter is not an irresistible enemy, the highest priority of the deep-sea habitat ship will be changed to annihilate humanity and sink the ship, and a single destroyer, obviously not to the extent of "unable to resist".
"Admiral, please enter the inner cabin, it's not safe here"
"It's okay, I have it" patted the heavy shield on his hand, and Lilan smiled at the Z16.
"Z16 is responsible for intercepting attacks and attracting firepower, and it is already quite dangerous to let the Admiral come up, if you continue to stay on the bridge-"
"Anxin" pressed the hat on the top of Z16's head with his right hand, and the height difference made this action easy to complete, and Z16 had to stop halfway through speaking.
"I don't want to carry this thing up and confront her directly, and now that I don't have communication equipment, I can't hide in the bilge and give orders to the air, right?"
"If you want to fight, just hand it over to Z16 and Ning Hai Sauce!"
Breaking away from Li Lan's "poisonous claws", the unquestionable firmness in Z16's eyes at this moment is so similar to Ning Hai, who was facing the deep-sea habitat ship at that time, it seems that as long as Li Lan says a "no", he will set off and return directly, but-
Lilan sighed, avoiding Z16's gaze: "This is an order"
“――!”
Looking at the horizon in the north, Li Lan said lightly: "The target has already discovered us, let's start"
“…… Yes, the destroyer Z16 is at your command, Lord Admiral"
Looking at the petite back of Z16 helplessly, she was unexpectedly angry, but Li Lan also had her own insistence.
The Z16 was moving at full speed, and its speed of 38.2 knots was almost three times that of the advancing deep-sea habitat ship, and it didn't take long for Lilan to see the target this time through the water elemental horizon.
The overall length of the ship is between 120 meters ~ 130 meters, and it should be a light ship similar to Ninghai and Z16, equipped with a naval gun with a caliber of more than 100 mm on the left side - the arrangement in this direction can only be observed on the island.
The pitch-black hull of the ship is covered with dark purple lines, which feel like human blood vessels. At the same time that Lilan saw the deep-sea perch, the other party had obviously noticed this "uninvited guest".
So she made a fairly direct greeting.
Turn around and fire.
"Lord Admiral, please get right!"
Just when Li Lan's eyes narrowed, and he wanted to estimate the data through this attack of the deep-sea habitat ship, the voice of Z16 suddenly sounded in his ears, and before he could react, a huge force that could not resist at all directly locked Li Lan firmly in place.
When she lowered her head, she realized that Z16 was now holding Lilan with her slender arms.
When Lilan was about to speak, the ship under his feet suddenly moved, and it was a "big move" - in this 38.2 section of high-speed sailing, he suddenly made a drifting action like a car in the movie, Lilan subconsciously wanted to grab something, but was stunned to find that the strong inertia brought by the "drift" had been offset by the Z16 holding on his body.
The ship's mother standing on the battleship and the ship's mother standing on land are basically two concepts!
In less than three seconds, the Z16, which was facing the deep-sea habitat ship, turned into a parallel channel parallel to the deep-sea habitat ship, and on the side facing the deep-sea habitat ship, there was a 37-mm rapid-fire gun.
"Bang-"
With a low roar, a meter-long dazzling flame erupted from the muzzle of the cannon, and the ship under its feet was pushed down slightly by the reaction force.
Nearly 1,500 meters away from Z16, a flame burst out.
Seconds later, the rumble of the shells detonating was accompanied by the smell of scorching smoke.
Suppressing the shock in his heart, he had experienced it once in Ninghai before, but that time was in a state of gene lock, and time seemed to have slowed down countless times, and Lilan couldn't feel the "naval battle" belonging to this world so intuitively, this time, he could be regarded as understanding - in this kind of world, I am afraid that only they can deal with the ship mother
While observing the movement of the deep-sea habitat ship, several rounds of bombardment were intercepted by Z16, and as the distance between Z16 and the deep-sea habitat ship widened, it seemed that she understood that long-distance artillery bombardment was ineffective, so she did not continue to use naval guns to attack, but turned around and sailed to Z16's side.
Li Lan breathed a sigh of relief: "Z16 sauce, you can let go of ......" patted Z16's arm on his body, Li Lan signaled that he was fine, and under the powerful power of Z16 that was extremely inconsistent with his appearance, Li Lan already felt that his body was a little unbearable......
"Z16 is doing a good job~"
“…… Salutation" raised his head to meet the blue gaze, Z16 still did not let go of his hand.
"Huh?"
"Previous sentence"
…… Is it okay to cause such an inexplicable topic on such an occasion?
"The Z16 is doing well?"
Z16 shook his head vigorously, and the flatness in his eyes quickly faded, replaced by the familiar "sparkle" of Lilan.
"One more sentence!"
"Z16-chan, you can-"
"That's it~!" Z16 nodded vigorously, and the sudden increase in force on his arm almost didn't make Lilla breath.
"Ahem, I see, ahem......"
Letting go of his hand, the Z16 took a step back and looked at Lilan expectantly.
After a frightened glance at the slender arm of Z16, he did not die in the shelling of the deep-sea habitat ship, but he almost "died" under these arms just now.
"Ahem...... Just keep your distance from the target, head in the direction of four o'clock, and join Ninghai...... Z16 sauce"
"It's ~Admiral~"
