The Disqualified Commander of the Abandoned Shipgirl

She is confident.

And he actually answered the question as he expected.

After asking fifty questions related to actual combat, Lin Shen stopped.

"How is it?" Nagato asked, with a little bit of uncontrollable pride on his face.

Compared with her initial embarrassment and nervousness, she has now been completely transformed!

Just a hundred questions, no problem at all.

"Not bad." Lin Shen nodded, "It's considered passing."

After hearing his answer, Nagato no longer suppressed his happy expression and smiled excitedly.

"Finally passed—" Nagato couldn't help but ask: "Then, do you still need to continue writing battle reports?"

“No need to write.”

"Very good--"

"Don't you ask yourself the question that concerns you most?" Lin Shen looked at Nagato and said.

"The most concerning issue?" Nagato was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that at the beginning, Lin Shen threatened him that if he failed the assessment, "Commander... can you not deal with Jie Ye?"

"Is this all you ask for?"

"Um……"

"Then go and solve the polar night."

"...!?"

Lin Shen supported his chin and said to Ayanami and Lafei beside him without changing his expression: "You two go with Nagato."

After saying that, Lin Shen looked at Nagato again: "If you can't get those five uninvited guests to go back, then they don't have to go back. I've already given you a chance, Nagato."

37. What is the right thing to do?

Nagato took the order and set off.

About 20 kilometers outside the rest stop, five figures were moving quickly in her direction. At this speed, they would soon cross the danger line and threaten the rest stop. Although it was only a theoretical threat, Lin Shen and the others obviously did not want to see this theoretical possible risk come to pass.

Totally unnecessary.

So we have to kill it within about 15 kilometers.

Nagato, Ayanami and Laffey quickly set out from the rest point and moved forward.

Finally, the five uninvited guests were stopped at about the same distance.

Nagato saw Ise for the third time.

In her original memory, there is information about the appearances of many other ship girls of the Sakura Empire.

Therefore, you can basically recognize all of them at the first sight.

Except for Ise, the flying eagle that appeared last time did not come this time.

The other four are Nagara, Abukuma, Furutaka, and Shoho.

There are five people, two in the back row, one battle row and one light cruiser, and three in the front row, one heavy and two light.

This configuration doesn't look like it was sent randomly.

Also.

After Lin Shen's soul detection swept over, Nagato clearly saw the training information of the five people.

This is information that only Lin Shen's soul detection can directly penetrate -

All five of them are above level 50.

Ise has the highest level of training, close to level 60.

If placed in a regular army, their training level would be considered an elite unit.

If it were half a month ago, Nagato and the others would have wanted to defeat such a complete formation head-on without Lin Shen's command.

almost impossible.

But now, it’s almost May.

After three days of separation, the gap in strength between the two sides has completely widened.

"You only sent three people over..." Ise looked at the three figures in front of him, feeling a little surprised, but also feeling that it was reasonable.

Lin Shen’s fleet was able to fight here for so long.

After half a month, as long as you are not dead, your progress will definitely be far beyond your imagination.

Such as now.

Even the fragile Nagato at the beginning became a completely different person after repeated battles.

"Ise...what's the purpose of your coming here this time?" Nagato walked in front and asked.

Rafi and Ayanami had no intention of coming closer. They all stayed behind, maintaining a safe distance.

"I told you last time, Lord Nagato, that I came here to take you back." Ise said in a flat tone.

"I can't leave here for the time being..." Nagato said with a complicated expression: "You guys go back."

"Nagato-sama." Ise's voice became much colder. "Although your strength has changed a lot, you are still as innocent as ever. Do you think that we came here this time just to say a few words and then go back?"

"What do you want to do?" Nagato asked again.

"I've made it very clear." Ise and the four people around him all unfolded their ship equipment, leaving no room for conversation. Or rather, Nagato didn't even have anything to say. For the first time, she realized that words were powerless. "I'm here to take you back to fulfill your duties."

"My duty..." Nagato muttered. Until now, she didn't know what her duty was. Lin Shen didn't allow her to go back, and Ji Ye's actions were gradually moving towards a very extreme direction. In the previous conversation, there was only a tendency to cover up, but now, until today, everything they described has become a reality.

"Yes, your duty." Ise had no intention of continuing, but pointed the muzzle of the ship's gun and the naginata in his hand at Nagato. "If you don't want to go back, I will take you back by force. I made it very clear last time."

"You can't do it here." Nagato interrupted his thoughts and said without hesitation.

"Then you come with us."

"I can't leave for now... I can't leave either." Nagato hesitated and struggled, and gave this reply. She really couldn't leave, and there was no way to leave. Even though she had fought so many battles and her mind had been partially damaged, she still couldn't see the way forward clearly.

Lin Shen's words added another shackle to her.

Or rather, an excuse.

"Then there is nothing more to say." Ise said without further ado to the four people around him, "I will take Nagato away, and you stop the other two."

"Yes." The four people agreed to this with an expressionless face, then walked behind Nagato and faced Ayanami and Laffey behind them.

"Wait, you can't beat him!" Nagato shouted hurriedly.

"..." Ise glanced at her, walked over, and grabbed Nagato's wrist. At such a close distance, Ise's eyes were filled with suppressed anger, "Don't you think we don't know?"

"...!"

"If it weren't for you, would we have run so far? If it weren't for you, would we have chased to this place? If it weren't for you - the four of them wouldn't have to come here, nor would they have to fight here. All this is because of you!"

"I--"

Ise grabbed Nagato's wrist tightly and then quickly retreated, wanting to take Nagato away with him.

"Wait, no--" Nagato said hurriedly, her face full of anxiety, but her words were of no use.

A feeling of powerlessness even greater than when he was caught before instantly filled his mind.

She heard, in the soul network, Lin Shen coldly gave the order to fight.

"Kill them, stop Ise, and bring Nagato back."

"Yes."

The battle broke out instantly.

In such a short distance, the battle between ship girls is very fast.

If the distance is farther, there is also the possibility of mutual bombardment with naval guns.

However, when the distance is close enough to engage in close combat, the naval guns lose half of their effectiveness.

The remaining half was fighting with fangs and claws bared like wild beasts.

There is no beauty at all.

The two sides quickly approached each other, and in an instant a series of intensive explosions occurred in the wilderness.

Xiangfeng's planes launched a bombing campaign directly, and because they had been prepared long ago, the bombing was very accurate. But unfortunately, Laffite and Ayanami were too fast, and the battleships were almost useless in an instant. The three vanguard ships confronted the two directly, and the two ships opened fire directly at the same time - the ship girl had only one real weak point, which was her brain.

Compared to other places, this part is indeed the most vulnerable point, so almost all attacks are directed here. However, because there are too few fatal points, it is easy to be defeated every time. After the two sides get close, they open fire directly at each other, using the firepower of the ship to pour hard on the enemy at close range, and at the same time swinging their fists, the force that can easily tear through steel directly hits down.

Blocked, kicked away, and then continued to attack, the ship equipment opened fire at super close range, and continued to fight head-on. All the actions took place in a split second, and the dense explosions marked both the beginning and the end.

Nagato was panicked and shocked, and had only three seconds to take action.

She quickly broke free from Ise's hand and unfolded her majestic ship uniform.

The muzzle of the huge ship's gun was aimed directly at Ise, but her naginata did not slash at Nagato immediately. Instead, she hesitated for a second, and then without hesitation, swung directly at Nagato's arm in the second second.

It's not a fatal point.

She wanted to break through Nagato's ship armor protection, force her to break her armed state, and then bring her back.

This alone is certain.

However, Ise's naginata did not achieve the desired effect. When the sharp naginata was about to slash over, Nagato reached out and grabbed the blade with force.

"I told you that you can't go back for the time being. Why don't you listen?!" Nagato roared in a rare angry voice. The naginata, which was an extension of her ship's suit, kept emitting sparks in her hands, as if two extremely hard objects were colliding wildly.

"I also told you, Sakura Empire needs you, why don't you respond!?" Ise decisively abandoned his naginata, went straight up and threw a punch.

"I can't respond to 'Empty Sakura' now!" Nagato replied loudly, while raising his other hand to block Ise's fist.

The simple collision caused the ground to crack rapidly, and the cracks gradually deepened, as if the two girls were not fighting, but two giant beasts transformed from steel.

"Talk of a coward!" Ise growled, pulling away and kicking him hard.

Although he was blocked by Nagato, he also took several steps back. The dull sound of huge objects colliding echoed from this side, and was finally drowned out by the high-frequency artillery fire that was like waves crashing on the coast not far away.

"I'm not a coward, I'm just--" Nagato's voice suddenly stopped.

She realized that in the short few seconds that the two men were fighting, the battle on the other side had already ended.

Yes, it started and then it ended.

As the main force, Xiangfeng lost its due role after flying close at a high speed, and in a three-on-two situation, the three vanguard ships were cleanly cleared out in just a few seconds.

Ayanami swung her sword expressionlessly, and with great efficiency, she cut into pieces the ship armor of Abukuma and Nagara. Both of them had their heads pierced by the sword, and they lost any possibility of rescue on the spot.

The remaining Gu Ying, after a cautious exchange of fire with Laffite, had her ship's protective layer forcibly cut off. Not surprisingly, she was no match for Laffite in a head-on firefight - even though she was a heavy cruiser with medium armor as protection.

However, the absolute gap in equipment, training level, combat ability and many other factors left her no chance to fight back after two or three seconds of fighting. Each shot in the close-range bombardment was nearly ten to one, and it was difficult for her to hit Lafite successfully, but the opponent hit her quite a lot.

In less than ten seconds, the sound of the ship's firing disappeared completely. After losing the protection of the ship's armor, Gu Ying's body was blown in half.

Without weapons, the ship girl is nothing in front of the naval guns.

As fragile as humans.

At this point, she and Xiangfeng were the only ones left of the four people brought by Ise.

"The gap is so huge." Ise's eyes were full of surprise, but it was all expected.

"...I told you that you can't beat us." Nagato's mood reached its lowest point.

What a joke.

This fleet is capable of defeating five or six thousand Siren monsters by itself.

In frontal combat, ten people can produce the same effect as an ultimate 100,000 regular troops.

It is simply not possible for the Midnight Mutant, whose equipment and training level are much different from theirs, to come and try to cause trouble.

It will just be smashed to pieces.

Turned into fragments of the ship girl all over the ground.

In a physical sense.

"If you come with me, we won't have to fight." Ise's expression turned cold again. She stared at Nagato with a dark look in her eyes.
