Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Encounter
The skirmish at sea was over before it could officially begin.
The fleet of deep-sea dwellers didn't even know where their enemy was - the carrier-based planes of Akagi and Gaga circled and attacked simultaneously from opposite directions.
On the battlecruiser of the deep-sea habitat ship, the two 300+mm naval guns that were enough to easily knock on any battleship of the First Fleet did not fire a single bullet until the Great Break was on the verge of sinking, whether it was attack capability or counter-detection ability, Akagi and Saratoga did bring too much surprise to Rilan.
The light energy mobilized was calmed down, and it was said before that it would join the battle depending on the situation, but now it seems that Lilan is still a soy sauce party - even more soy sauce than before, at least the previous battles still need to be commanded by themselves, and now they have directly evolved into a "fully automatic" mode......
However, it would be nice to be able to solve it safely.
After the wave of firepower of the carrier-based aircraft poured, it was basically determined through the water element world that the side of the deep-sea perched ship had lost its combat capability: "It's okay, let's lean over next"
Lilan commanded into the communication channel: "Be aware that they may launch a suicide attack, if it is really too late to avoid it, allow direct sinking, and put their own safety first"
"Yes"
Cut through the channel and unexpectedly met Akagi's gaze.
Li Lan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "Is there anything on my face?" ”
"I'm sorry, Akagi is just a little weird......"
"Strange?"
"Hmm~" Shaking her head slightly, the girl smiled and said, "It's not a big deal, Lord Admiral can act according to his own ideas"
…… Looks like you're weirder, right?
―――――― Split ――――――
After approaching the fleet of deep-sea habitat ships, Leylan realized how terrifying the consequences of being unprepared to withstand the attack of carrier-based aircraft from two high-level aircraft carriers.
Almost every inch of the entire deck of the six warships was left with traces of the flames of the explosion.
Looking down from mid-air, all that comes into view is a black scorch mark, and a thick column of smoke emerges from the original part of the ship's weapon to the sky, large or small craters are all over every part, but the most deadly is the dense bullet holes in the cabin - they take advantage of the weapons above to cope with the pouring shells, accurately penetrate the power system, and directly disintegrate all the action power of the deep-sea habitat ship.
According to the structure of the human body, the power system of the ship is probably similar to the human heart, although it will not die immediately once it is damaged, but it will lose all resistance and mobility, and even the ship cannot be deployed until it is repaired or completely sunk.
Behind the light energy input, Lilan slowly rose from above Akagi, while reminding: "Pay attention to the surrounding area, the island wind comes with me, remember to put the iron rope inside before"
Because of the unexpectedly fruitful results of Akagi and Gaga, the six deep-sea habitat ships were in this state of "powerlessness to resist", and Rilan had to change his original plan.
It is impossible to tow all six of them back, so the destroyer and light cruiser can only be disposed of on the spot......
"Island Wind received ~ Can the Admiral come down?"
"Huh?" Rilan asked puzzled, "Why, there may be—"
"It's so bright, I can't see the front of the island wind!"
“……”
Speechlessly, he looked at the blazing white flame behind him, this distance was indeed much more dazzling than looking directly at the sun.
"Okay......"
"Lord Admiral, UFOs have been spotted!"
An emergency message from Akagi rang out the next moment Rilan decided to arrive, and the light flame that had just shown signs of decay immediately shone brightly.
Rising to a height of 500 meters, the water elemental horizon scanned around: "Report their direction and speed - is that the guy last night?" ”
"At a speed of 500km/h, at a distance of 4.87km, we're heading in the direction we are, two-no, Lord Admiral, there are three!"
His pupils shrank slightly, and Li Lan ordered without hesitation: "Akagi and Gaga will immediately start all the carrier-based aircraft and replace them with anti-aircraft firepower - how many more will be replaced!" ”
"Thunder and lightning disperse, protect yourself, Island Wind continues to advance, if you find any abnormalities in these deep-sea habitat ships, sink them immediately!"
Three...... I really think of myself.
Looking at the three flames of light on the edge of the sky - crimson, obsidian, and pure white similar to his own back, but there is no sense of "dazzling".
The bitterness in the mouth spreads little by little.
"Ready for battle!"
―――――― Split ――――――
3 minutes ago.
"RX-0 Quest Complete, Target Found"
"This is BK-0, and there are other ships near the target, number 11, do you want to suspend the project?"
"Only three have high-energy magnetic fields, are in a controllable range, and the plan continues to be carried out"
"RX-0 takes orders, now set off on target"
"BK-0 receives orders and now sets off on target"
The girl quietly looked at the four small points of light in the lower right of the perspective - the three gods gathered together represented her side, and the other point was self-evident.
Really...... Do you too......
Thinking back to the "Shinhime" she saw last night, the girl had mixed feelings that she didn't know how to describe it.
"MSN-06S receives orders and now sets out for the target"
"This is the command center, and now repeat the mission requirements - the goal is to capture the god queen who is not identified by the code, and immediately evacuate to base three after controlling her, remember, it must be alive, the Federation can't afford to lose any of them, understand?"
"RX-0 Received"
"BK-0 Received"
“……”
“MSN-06S?”
"Ah, I'm sorry...... MSN-06S received "
“…… Let's go, don't keep the military waiting too long"
Communication was disconnected, and the girl breathed a sigh of relief.
"Leah-chan, are you okay?" Communication from RX-0, Unicorn.
"Well, I just didn't sleep well last night."
"Speaking of which, this time the target was Leah's first discovery, do you have any impression?" Communication from BK-0, Nightmare.
"Impressions......"
Thinking back to the brief contact last night, Leah hesitated and said, "He has ...... There should only be one composite build...... Right? ”
"One piece?!"
"How is that possible?!"
"That...... I guess I was wrong because it was late and I couldn't see it clearly......"
Under the blazing white "dazzling" light, Leah couldn't be sure, but Leah was quite clear about another thing: "However, his close-quarters combat ability is quite strong, and he has a certain visual impact ability"
"I see...... Will you control the combat distance to 3000m later, is it okay? ”
"No problem"
“ok”
