Azur Lane: I Crossed the Graduation Port Area

Chapter 1668: Alsace, the King of Kings in the North

"Hmm? I thought Lord Arthas and his fellow knights had already informed the commander of the detailed battle situation."

Bayard looked at his smiling face and said with some surprise.

In response to the blonde knight's confusion, Lin Lan spread his hands and explained with a smile:

“Well, after Arthas and I reunited, we were playing high-end games all the way, and we were troubled by the memories of the original world that popped up from time to time.

"I didn't ask about it after I learned that you were all safe and sound. It's not too late to learn more about it now."

Bayard raised his hand and gently touched his face:
"Commander, you have fought so hard all the way. Compared with your experience, the battles of the Knights in the Northern Territory are nothing."

After saying that, Bayard saw that the Iron Blood and Sardinia fleets had not yet appeared in the radar system, so he organized his words slightly and began to tell him about the experience of the Iris Fleet in the northern territory of the Teaching Country.

The term "Northern Territory" refers to the vast expanse of frozen land outside the northernmost main city of the Doctrine Nation, extending to the cliffs and icy ravines.

The exiles who have offended the nobles, as well as various alien races defined as extremely dangerous, are all struggling to survive in this cold and snowy land.

Because of this, the beliefs in the Northern Territory are very chaotic, supplies are extremely scarce, and the various foreign royal courts are not submissive to each other.

It was not until more than a decade ago that the arrival of the experimental institute changed everything in the Northern Territory.

The Lord of the Cyclops King's Court, who had undergone a Rubik's Cube transformation by an experimental agency, almost unified the Northern Territory with his brute force and launched an expedition to Natlan across the Ice Forest.

However, Lin Lan already knew the outcome of the expedition.

All these alien races in the Royal Court became victims of the Judge's plan and were reduced to experimental subjects for the experimental agency to test the combat effectiveness of his Donghuang and Northern Alliance ship girls.

After the expedition was defeated, the Lord of the Cyclops King's Court, who was severely damaged by the Rubik's Cube ballistic missile, was abandoned by the experimental agency and his strength dropped severely.

Its tyrannical and brutal ruling style was already rejected and resisted by the various alien royal courts, and some aliens who had studied in Natlan and accepted the advanced ideas of the Spark Column returned.

As a result, a new round of royal court fighting was ignited again in the Northern Territory, causing great suffering to the main cities in the north of the Doctrine Kingdom.

It was at this time that the Iris Ship Girls sent out the Knights to expedition to the Northern Territory.

As Lin Lan expected, the local alien Spark Column provided great help to the Iris ship girls.

Although they were unable to meet Aurora and the others who were sent to the frozen land, the Iris Knights relied on the intelligence shared by the Spark Column and used both civil and military means to gradually conquer many royal courts in the Northern Territory.

Finally, when the time was right, the Knights launched a decisive battle against the Cyclops King's Court.

When Arthas rode on a giant ship-mounted horse and used the devastating battleship's main gun to completely annihilate the Lord of the Cyclops Court on the battlefield, the new King of Kings in the North was born.

“After defeating the Lord of the Cyclops King’s Court, we wanted to continue destroying Juebi Bingsen’s experimental fortress.

"But at that time, we all felt the loss of our commander."

When Bayard said this, his voice lowered a bit, and even the light in his blue eyes became dim.

Lin Lan did not hesitate and took the initiative to hug Bayard into his arms.

"I'm back now and I won't let that happen again."

Feeling the strength of his hug and hearing his reassuring words of comfort, Bayard took a long breath, a faint smile reappeared on his face, and he hugged him with his backhand.

Even if Bayard didn't say anything, Lin Lan learned about the subsequent developments from Alsace and Louis IX.

The Iris Knights handed over the reconstruction of the Northern Territory to the Holy Light Church, and the Spark Column and the Holy Light Church jointly governed the Northern Territory. Arthas, who already had a transcendent status in the Teaching Nation, was also the King of Kings in the Northern Territory, which finally made the Northern Territory aliens and the Teaching Nation put aside their prejudices and were willing to move towards the future together.

I have to say, it was a wise decision for the Iris Ship Girls to let Arthas be the King of Kings.

Just like a famous line in a classic game on Blue Star, in order to completely end the chaos in the Northern Territory, a "Lich King" must be elected.

While he was sitting on the bench hugging the blond knight, Bayard suddenly whispered in his ear:

"Commander, the Iron Blood and Sardinian support fleets have entered my radar range. They will be here soon."

After hearing this, Lin Lan let go of the light patrol girl who still had a happy smile on her face.

The two of them stood up and walked to the dock, looking towards the ocean together.

Sure enough, after a while, a mass-produced fleet gradually emerged on the sea level.

At the same time, on the deck of the mass-produced destroyer headed by the mass-produced fleet that returned from the Holy City of the Teaching Country, the faces of several tall and slender girls were filled with confusion and puzzlement.

"Huh? Miss Diplex, why is the Aurora Wall system shut down? It was clearly open when we set out this morning."

The first person to speak standing on the deck was a lively girl wearing a loose white and green Sardinian cassock and with her floor-length pale green hair tied into two ponytails with white highlights.

It wears a hair accessory like a painter's white hat on its head, and its pair of light yellow X-shaped eyes look up at the sky curiously.

The Sardinian golden-red holy staff in the hands of this white-silk girl revealed her identity.

The late-model battleship of the Sardinian Empire UP41 plan, the only sea legend of the camp, Raphael.

The person Raphael was asking about, Diplex, was a tall, bespectacled woman with long black hair, wearing a white and red Inquisition uniform, and holding a notebook in one hand, like a professional secretary.

Dupleix, the fourth ship of the Suffren-class heavy cruiser, is also a senior Grand Inquisitor of the Inquisition.

However, even as the host, the black-haired girl with glasses from Iris Heavy Cruiser was a little confused about the situation.

"Logically, there is no maintenance plan for the Aurora Wall system today... Strasbourg, have you heard about this from Bishop Clemenceau?"

With his brows slightly furrowed, Diplex, who was lost in thought because he could not answer Raphael's question, turned sideways and whispered to another fellow inquisition member who also had long, straight black hair.

The tall girl, wearing a black and red Inquisition jacket and a colorful cape, had long black hair tied into two ponytails with red thorn hair accessories.

It is the second ship of the same class as the Iris Dunkerque, the younger sister of Strasbourg.

In response to Dupleix's whispered question, Strasbourg shook his head, shrugged and replied:

"I don't know either...but I feel like it might be because of Tempalans's arrival yesterday?"

Strasburg's voice is very pleasant, as addictive as music.

This black-haired, red-eyed Iris Inquisitor Patrol Girl is also a musician, and with this identity she has collected a lot of intelligence from all over the Doctrine Country.

After hearing Strasbourg's guess, Dupleix did not continue to ask, but silently tried to connect to the port fleet channel.

"You two Grand Inquisitors, don't you even know why your temporary port's defense system was shut down? Let me guess... Could it be that the temporary port was invaded?"

Seeing Strasbourg and Dupleix whispering to each other but no one answering her, Raphael pouted her lips cutely and used her imagination.
