Azur Lane: I Crossed the Graduation Port Area

Chapter 1669: The Return of the Iron-Blooded Sardinian Support Fleet
As soon as Raphael finished his joking words, Strasbourg refuted seriously with great certainty:

"It's impossible. The Aurora Wall technology has gone through several iterations. Even a Category V threat cannot penetrate silently."

"Oh my, I was just joking. You, Judge Iris, are so rigid."

Raphael stuck out his tongue playfully at Strasburg, and while fixing his long green hair that was blown by the sea breeze, he said with a relaxed tone:

"Didn't Tian Palans say yesterday that the great commander had already wiped out all the enemies?

"I'm really looking forward to the day when the Commander returns triumphantly. Just thinking about it makes me feel my artistic inspiration flowing. The Commander must have brought me a lot of creative materials!"

Raphael looked like a nymphomaniac, which was in stark contrast to the sacred white-green Sardinian robe he was wearing.

Even though he knew that his Sardinian companions all had eccentric personalities, Strasbourg still covered his forehead helplessly when facing this heavy commander who was caught up in fantasy.

"So, Diplex, we are about to enter the upstream channel. Have you connected to the port fleet channel?"

The light patrol girl with straight black hair and glasses pushed up her glasses, looked ahead at the approaching temporary port area, and answered in confusion:

"No, the communication signal I sent was blocked...

"Considering that Tempalans shared Antix's communication technology with us yesterday for channel upgrades, and the high-dimensional threat was resolved by the commander, the only ship that can achieve this level of signal interference is probably a meta ship."

The thoughtful Dupleix's calm reasoning stunned Raphael and Strasbourg on the deck.

"Meta? Is there a meta companion coming to visit today?"

Strasburg said this in surprise, and then several footsteps were heard behind them.

"Hehe~ Dear allies, it seems that you have encountered some minor troubles?"

A gentle and charming female voice sounded slowly, and the three ship girls turned around and saw that the person coming was Frederick Karl with a faint smile on his face.

This purple-haired heavy cruiser from the Iron Blood camp has a pair of devilish black and red curved horns on her head and has a beautiful and voluptuous figure.

On the way back, after taking off the loose robes of the Magic Association, Frederick Karl had changed back into his daily wear in the port area - a black bodysuit that outlined his perfect body curves and a graceful and evil black and red tight fishtail skirt.

Coming to the deck with Frederickael were three other Iron-Blooded Ship Girls who had also changed their Magician Association robes back into their daily port wear.

The Valkyrie with a confident smile on her face, also had long black hair, red eyes, a slender tall and fair body, and was only wearing a black and white tight combat suit and a black and red cloak. She was a member of the Iron-Blooded O-class battlecruiser - Alvette.

A lively little Lolita in a wolf swimsuit, with bare feet, a healthy wheat-colored complexion, and her gray-white long hair tied into a side ponytail with an iron-blooded handkerchief, U31.

There is also a little girl with a petite figure like a little girl, a cute mouthless face with a pink heart-patterned eye mask covering her left eye, and a little loli with pink hair and twin ponytails wearing a black wide-sleeved Gothic-style jacket, Z47.

Seeing several iron-blooded companions from the support camp coming out of the cabin, Raphael asked Frederick Karl curiously:
"You all came out...Huh? Where did the normally noisy little Chuunibyou go?"

Before Frederick Karl could answer with a smile, a very arrogant loli voice snorted and laughed from behind him:

"Hehehe! The Aurora Wall and Siren technology are very deep. I knew that you Iris mediocre people couldn't control yourself!"

Hiding behind Frederick, with her right eye covered with a cloth, the severely middle school pink-haired Z-driven little loli Z43 finally poked her head out at this moment, giggling at her three companions. "Wow, Z43, you actually said that in front of them, aren't you afraid of being thrown into the sea by the angry judge? I won't rescue you."

U31 looked at Z43 who was standing with his hands on his hips and gave him a smirk as a reminder, but Z43 still had a smug smile on his face.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Z43's calves were shaking, indicating that this suicidal little Z-Drive loli was not as calm as she looked on the outside.

Fortunately, despite Z43's outrageous remarks in a cute black and white iron-blooded style short dress, Duplex, Strasbourg and Raphael did not take it seriously.

They had long known that Z43's severe chuunibyou was beyond help, so they all chose to ignore Z43 and focus their attention on Frederick and Alvette.

Except for the three Sardinian ship girls, Major Baraka, Giosue and Bartolomeo, who were still in the cabin sorting out the painting props purchased today, all the members of the fleet returning from the Holy City had already come to the deck.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Frederick Karl smiled and said softly:
"The regional signal blocking was indeed caused by the meta companion. I have just confirmed this using the magic cube device I carry with me.

“Although the reason why the Aurora Wall system was shut down is still unclear, we must have entered the radar scanning range of the temporary port area.

“Since the reverse flow channel is still operating normally, we will stay at the port normally and make plans later.”

The girls on the deck looked at each other and agreed with the decision made by Frederick Karl.

Raphael also returned to the cabin and told his three Sardinian companions what had happened there.

Soon, as the escorting mass-produced fleet was stored in the ship's storage space by the girls, the mass-produced destroyer they were on also arrived at the shore of the island and slowly sailed into the upstream river.

Dupleix and Strasbourg breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the temporary port buildings on both sides of the river were intact and that occasionally the figures of the barbarians flashed by.

It seems that the closure of the Aurora Wall was not an accident, but was actively closed by the temporary port area.

Considering that the Commander is currently in the temporary port of Sardinia, it makes sense that the meta companions from the home port would arrive across the ocean first.

Perhaps they had the same idea as the two judge girls, the five iron-blooded ship girls were also silent, as if they were all looking forward to reuniting with the commander.

Due to the thrust of the upstream river water, the mass-produced destroyer continued to move forward slowly even after completely stopping the power system.

Just when the girls on the deck vaguely saw the terminal port ahead, two figures standing at the port pier, as if waiting for their return, attracted their attention.

"Bayard? Wait, the person standing next to Bayard is..."

Among them, the Iris Knight girl in the golden white dress was familiar to them.

But when their eyes fell on the young man in a white navy uniform standing side by side with Bayard, their pupils shrank sharply.

My breathing became rapid and my heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably.

The little middle school girl Z43 even dragged U31 to the bow deck, leaned out half of her body and stared blankly at the man with a bright smile on his face, waving at them.
