Azur Lane: I Crossed the Graduation Port Area

Chapter 1637 What? Are you thinking about me?

Ever since Lu Ling's soul was placed back into her body by the Sakura Empire's ship girls and she woke up, she has felt like she was dreaming.

As a time traveler who arrived at Gu Liaozhou thousands of years ago, she once thought that she would never see high-tech products again in her life.

During the long war with evil spirits, she witnessed the ancient Liaozhou Islands, which were like purgatory on earth, and gradually grew from an ignorant child into a determined brave.

As a brave warrior summoned by the gods, her appearance was forever frozen at the moment she crossed over.

She had reminded herself countless times when standing in front of the mirror that even if she became the hero, her ultimate goal after defeating the Demon King was still to return to the Blue Star.

In addition to proving to the abusive parents that you have grown up to the point where you no longer need them.

More importantly, it is necessary to find that person.

Find the person who stood up to protect her when her childhood was darkest and most desperate, and confess her love to the person who was kept in the dark from beginning to end and had no idea that she was a girl.

Yes, even though she traveled through time and changed her name to Yuki, Lu Ling could never forget that back view and that bright smile bathed in the sun.

This is also the belief that has supported her to fight in desperate situations countless times.

However, when she and her companions led the Nine Islands Alliance to recapture Shenlian Island and attack the Demon King's Palace, she discovered the most desperate truth of this world when facing the Demon King.

The so-called Demon King's Army are all victims of the Shenlian family and the exorcist guards who were eroded and controlled by the evil spirits that broke through the seal of the Abyss Demon Cave.

What is even more hopeless is that the source of evil in the abyss is endless, and even the power of the brave bestowed by the gods is of no use at all.

Outside the world, there are countless evil spirits lurking and ready to strike at any time.

Because that person said that those who sacrifice themselves to protect others are all noble people, so after Lu Ling defeated the Demon King and the four commanders of the Demon King's army, she was very rational and did not kill them directly.

She tried her best to learn about the evil's erosion and spread methods when the Demon King, Shen Lianying, regained consciousness. Combining her own reasoning method from Blue Star, she roughly guessed that the evil was spreading through the conceptualized pollution method of "memes".

But the existence of the Demon King and the Four Commanders is a concept that has long been known to the entire Liaozhou.

When the world was on the verge of destruction, Lu Ling finally chose to use herself as a medium to pull the Demon King and the four commanders into the barrier and exile Shenlian Island from the main plane of the world.

At the same time, she also asked her companions who were destined to become future island masters and who had fought with her all the way to erase this history as much as possible, and use the power of the island core to reinforce the core of the Liaozhou Broken World.

In this way, as time goes by, the people of Liaozhou will eventually forget this history.

After Lu Li explained the subsequent arrangements to her companions, she used herself as a medium to pull the Demon King's army into the seal. She told the sword spirit of the brave sword who had accompanied her all the way her real name, as well as her inner reluctance and regret.

Yes, she had already realized at that time that the Sword of the Brave was conscious.

She was ready to face death, and she believed that the person would understand her decision.

But... not being able to meet that person again, or even not being able to tell that person her real gender, is Lu Ling's biggest regret in her life.

Especially after Liaozhou woke up and regained his memory, and learned that a thousand years had passed since he entered the seal, Lu Ling became completely desperate.

But when her soul was stopped by the good man Richard and she saw the resolute face of the commander in the handsome white military uniform in the port area, she felt surprised from the bottom of her heart.

It must be him.

Even though he has become much more mature than before, she will never forget that look.

As her soul returned to her body, Lu Li learned everything from Nagato and Amagi.

The ship girl, the Rubik's Cube, X... and the commander of the port area and the second-generation hero, Lin Lan, whom she dreamed of meeting when she returned to Blue Star.

Having lived in Guliaozhou for such a long time, and having been influenced by Lin Lan to like reading Sakura light novels since childhood, Lu Ling could of course accept that all the ship girls in the port area were Lin Lan's wives.

Anyway, this is a different world, not the Blue Planet. Besides, the ship girls are so kind and easy-going, and they are her saviors.

Lu Ling’s only hope is that Lin Lan can return safely from Natlan.

After that, she had been in charge of the reconstruction of the port and the logistics of the fleet's assault on Natlan with Bri and the other barbarians. In her spare time, she had been praying for Lin Lan's safe return.

Time goes back to the present. Lu Li looked at the four goddesses of creation from another world who were looking at her, and finally turned her gaze to the little sword spirit.

She had learned from the intelligence sent by the Northern United Fleet's home port that the spirit of the Brave Sword was the Goddess of Liaozhou.

"haven't seen you for a long time……"

Seeing the shame on the little sword spirit's face, Lu Li waved to the little sword spirit and greeted him softly.

"Yes, a thousand years is a long time even for a god."

There was no longer any playfulness in the little sword spirit's voice at this moment. Instead, it was filled with deep vicissitudes and emotion, as well as deep-hidden guilt.

The little sword spirit has always felt guilty about this first generation hero who was summoned from the Blue Star thousands of years ago, and doesn't know how to face it.

After all, in her opinion, everything Lu Li experienced after coming to the other world was full of suffering, especially when she saw Lu Li sacrifice herself after knowing the truth, which made Xiao Jianling feel deeply ashamed.

"Thank you, God."

But what the little sword spirit didn't expect was that Lu Li's next words were a sincere thank you to her:
"If you hadn't brought me into this world, I would never have had the chance to meet him again.

“So don’t blame yourself or feel guilty.”

Looking at the girl with an easygoing smile on her face, the little sword spirit was overwhelmed with emotions and didn't know what to say.

In fact, the reason why she could accurately summon Lin Lan to this world was because Lu Li confessed everything to her without reservation before entering the seal.

And the little sword spirit didn't expect that the person that Lu Li valued so much would be the one who truly saved everything, and would be the person they loved deeply in the future.

"It seems that this is also a perfect result of karma."

The corners of Shen Lianyou's mouth slightly raised as the goddess of Natlan. The petite one-winged Yinglong girl who mastered the power of cause and effect had already seen through this cause and effect.

"Hehehe, so sister, where is the commander now? Since you have returned, the commander must have returned to the world as well."

After witnessing the reunion of Xiao Jianling and Lu Li, Shen Lianying finally asked the question that they cared about most.

Hearing Shen Lianying's question, Shen Lianyou and Lu Ling both looked at the little sword spirit with burning eyes.

Yes, since Goddess Liaozhou is here, Lin Lan must have come back with her.

Where is the man who created countless miracles now?

"Why, are you thinking about me?"

But before the little sword spirit could answer, a familiar and brilliant laugh sounded from outside the door, simultaneously pulling at the heartstrings of the four goddesses and heroes in the room.
