After hesitating for a moment, Shokaku crossed his arms and said, "Forget it. I have no choice but to act with you. I still hate you for ignoring warnings and coming here to interfere with my happiness."
Lexington awkwardly withdrew his hand and said, "Same here, I still hate you, Shoukaku."
There was still some coldness and hostility in the two people's words, but the tense atmosphere around them had disappeared a lot.
"What do we do next?"
"What else can we do? We have to find a way to bring the troops together."
After rebuking Lexington, Shokaku said, "In such a rugged environment, our aircraft carriers cannot fully exert their power. We must at least find a few destroyers and cruisers to escort them."
"I don't want to use the ship-mounted sword to fight those sirens in hand-to-hand combat. If it turns into a hand-to-hand combat, you will only hinder me."
This is a rough truth. Not all ship girls are as special as those in the Sakura Empire. Almost every ship girl comes with her own weapons, and even the small destroyers with beast ears can draw their swords and chop people.
Lexington's combat style is typical of that of an aircraft carrier, just like that of the Tejas, and there is nothing special about it.
"I'll use the carrier-based aircraft to detect the surrounding environment first, you help me keep an eye..."
"Wait, don't release the carrier-based aircraft!"
Lexington promptly interrupted Shokaku's attempt to launch the carrier-based aircraft. Facing her dissatisfied expression, Lexington softly explained, "The carrier-based aircraft is too loud. This is a completely unfamiliar environment for us. We don't know how many Sirens are hiding around here."
"I just tried to contact Zhenhai and others, but there was no response..."
Nodding, Xianghe said, "That's right. It would be bad if Shun Teng found us. Let's be cautious and search slowly."
Like Nagato and the others, Lexington and Shokaku decided to prioritize finding their companions and began searching the surrounding ruins.
Half an hour later, the two people who had been searching separately returned to the ruins of the bridge with choked expressions.
"did not find?"
Lexington shook his head.
Sighing, Shokaku continued, "That should confirm that there are no other companions nearby... Let's go deeper and expand the range."
Perhaps Shokaku's 'bad luck' had really taken effect, as Nagato and the others had easily gathered a fleet, and they found nothing.
Not long after the two continued walking forward, a short figure appeared in front of them.
"Little Gaga?" Lexington said uncertainly after taking a closer look at the other person's clothes.
Hearing the voice behind him, Xiao Jiajia turned around and gave a weird smile.
"From two aircraft carriers to three, the problem is still not solved, but..."
"I want to try first to see if they are my companions!"
Drawing the katana from his waist, Shokaku leaped up in front of Lexington's incredulous gaze and cut off Xiao Jiajia's head.
This violent and bloody scene shocked Lexington for a hundred years. She shouted, "Shokaku, what are you doing? That's little Gaga!"
With a sneer, Shokaku retracted his sword, raised his head that had not yet sunk above the sea, turned around and said, "You are a fool, right? If it was Saratoga from White Eagle, she would have pounced on us when she saw us, instead of standing here and grinning foolishly."
"Here, look at what's under this head, hehe~ a mechanical creation..."
Pointing the severed part of the body and head at Lexington, Shokaku pointed at the electronic wire that was still sparking at the wound.
"..."
After a moment of silence, Lexington recovered from the shock and asked softly, "Can you launch an attack with just this?"
"I'm more cautious. It's not right to meet Saratoga in this situation. It's understandable if she had other companions with her, but she was alone and didn't even send carrier-based aircraft to conduct reconnaissance."
Shokaku dropped the head in his hand with a look of disgust and continued, "Little Jiajia is very reckless. If she were alone, she would definitely send out carrier-based aircraft to observe the surrounding environment."
"And with her skills, even if I suddenly attack, this knife will definitely not be able to hit her. How can a White Eagle veteran-level aircraft carrier be so weak... Anyway, judging by the result, my bet was right."
"I don't know if others will be fooled by a mechanical creature that looks similar to my companions..." Lexington immediately thought of Little Gaga and Saratoga.
Not all ship girls can think as much as Shokaku, and they don't have any psychological pressure to launch tentative attacks on their companions. If the two of them act alone and encounter a robot with the same appearance as themselves, they will definitely be hit.
"Don't think too much. Even if they fell into a trap, we don't have any..."
Before he could finish his words, Shokaku seemed to have heard something, drew out his katana again, and turned his head to look at the ruins of a tall building beside him.
Seeing this, Lexington's expression froze, and he moved behind Shokaku and unfolded his ship suit.
"Something is approaching us again... I'll be the forward in a moment, Lexington, be careful not to get hit by the bomb."
It's okay to not fight against the enemy, but with this team configuration, if they encounter the enemy at close range, and both aircraft carriers release carrier-based aircraft, they will undoubtedly die miserably, so Shokaku decided to play the role of a heavy cruiser and engage in close combat with the opponent, leaving Lexington some room to perform.
Rolling his eyes, Lexington replied: "My carrier-based aircraft control skills are better than yours, don't worry."
Back to back, the two men pressed together, their bodies tense, ready to fight the enemy.
Chapter 251 Three Aircraft Carriers and a Drama
In the ruins, two beautiful ship girls leaned against each other with solemn expressions. They dared not breathe heavily, and they could hear a pin drop. Fear comes from the unknown, and it is even more so in a completely unfamiliar place.
Originally they thought that their opponents in Solomon would only be Sirens, but the little Gaga they met before has proved that the enemies are not only the Sirens they had encountered before, but also all kinds of strange things.
In this extremely tense atmosphere, Lexington pursed his lips and whispered, "The other side seems to be motionless. Is it waiting for reinforcements to take us down in one fell swoop?"
"I suggest... a strategic retreat."
With his eyebrows arched, Shokaku said, "Don't be ridiculous. Where can we retreat to? Running around for our lives is not the Sakura Empire's fighting style. At least we have to fight first."
"Is it really a good idea to deploy carrier-based aircraft in this situation?"
"What's good or bad about it? Do you really need to consider these things in a crisis? The most important thing is to survive... Here it comes!"
Seeing his reflection on the water, Shokaku growled with a serious expression, crossed his long legs and slid quickly to the ruins, holding his sword high.
The idea of taking the initiative to win is not just the combat style of the First Carrier. This concept has also influenced the ship girls of the Sakura Empire. No matter what it is, just kill it first.
When Lexington saw that Shokaku had already broken in, he did not hesitate. The carrier-based aircraft gathered on the ship. As long as Shokaku slashed down with a sword, the bombing would follow.
When the shadow fully revealed its true face, it turned out to be a familiar partner as the two had thought...Iron Ron.
However, with what happened before, Shokaku did not hold back just because the opponent was his "companion". He raised the blade and brought it down quickly, flashing a cold light.
"go to hell!"
Facing the oncoming blade, Ron instinctively blocked the ship's equipment above him. Sparks flew, and under Shokaku's full-strength slash, the gun barrel on the dragon-type ship's equipment broke.
After missing the target, Shokaku continued swinging his sword and yelled, "Lexington, do it!"
'Da da da--'
The attack plane dived quickly in front of Ron, and its machine guns spewed flames. In just a few seconds, Ron's ship was shaky and the metal shell was pitted.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shokaku swung his sword upwards to break open Ron's ship suit, turned the handle in his hand, and stabbed straight into the opponent's abdomen.
"Successful."
Just when Shokaku thought the battle was securely won, a blue figure quickly arrived in front of Ron and blocked the determined attack with his ship suit.
"What can I say? You two are too nervous to launch such an unwise attack against your comrades."
Hearing this, Shokaku was shocked. He carefully examined the visitor's face and asked uncertainly, "Essex?"
"It's me... Um, how about you put down the sword first and then we can explain the situation?"
Seeing the seriousness in Essex's eyes, Shokaku slowly retracted his sword and waved at Lexington behind him.
Seeing this, Lexington retracted the attack aircraft and slowly glided over. Looking at the current scene, it seems that they have made a big mistake...
After a brief exchange, Lexington and Shokaku also realized that they had attacked the wrong people. Essex was real, and Ron was also real.
Just like them, the two of them gathered together when they were teleported in, and they also prioritized finding companions as they continued to explore this space.
However, Ron and Essex were obviously more radical. They did not search within a radius of the place where they were teleported, but continued to move forward in one direction.
What a coincidence, if Shokaku hadn't made a little noise when he attacked the fake Xiao Jiajia, the two sides might have just passed each other.
It was because they heard the sound of something falling into the water that Ron and Essex ran over to see what was going on. However, the joy of reuniting with their companions was dampened by the unprovoked attack.
"That's about it. We didn't see any other companions along the way... Of course, it's possible that we missed them."
"This space is much larger than we thought. Communications have also been cut off. It's great to be able to meet."
With a gentle smile on their faces, Lexington and Shokaku bowed to Ron and said sincerely, "I'm very sorry for attacking you."
Ron, who had almost repaired it with the red tip, shook his head and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. After all, you have met a 'fake' companion. You should be cautious."
"For the joy of reunion, let's have a warm hug!"
Seeing that Ron was not angry at all and opened his arms, the two of them shook their heads quickly, stepped back and said, "Forget about the hug. We are not used to such physical contact."
What kind of ship girl Ron is, except Xia Bai who is still kept in the dark, all the ship girls in Azur Lane and Crimson Axis know.
Even though they knew she wouldn't care about such things, they still felt a little uneasy considering her crazy personality.
After being rejected, Ron was not annoyed. He still had a 'kind' smile on his face, pointed at his chin and said, "Really, everyone doesn't like hugs? Obviously, this is a good way to get along with each other."
"Haha." x2
After smiling meaningfully, the two did not respond to Ron's words, but instead talked to Essex about what to do next.
Three aircraft carriers and one heavy cruiser. Although this fleet configuration is not very reasonable, it is still capable of fighting. Among them, Shokaku and Ron can serve as meat shields in the front, while the other two can fully display the power of the aircraft carrier.
The interpersonal situation, which was already not very good, became even more awkward. I won’t go into details about Lexington and Shokaku, but Xia Bai’s wedding ships did not have a good face towards Essex.
As for Ron, because of her crazy personality, any ship girl who knows a little bit will not have too much contact with her, and she is an iron-blooded ship girl.
I can only say that these people are absolutely amazing together.
Back to the topic, after confirming that gathering the fleet was the first priority, the four of them randomly chose a direction along the waterway and moved forward cautiously.
After a while, Ron, who was at the front, stopped and said solemnly, "Did you... hear any sound?"
"sound?"
Hearing this, the three aircraft carriers narrowed their eyes and listened carefully to the movements around them. They could faintly hear the sounds of artillery fire, gunfire, bombing, and the sound of carrier-based aircraft whizzing past.
"There's a fight going on here!"
Nodding, Ron replied: "Yes, I smell the smell of gunpowder... No matter who is involved in the battle, we can't just ignore it, right?"
Essex said: "Needless to say, join the battle and help your comrades!"
Without much hesitation, the three aircraft carriers launched their carrier-based aircraft at the same time and headed towards the war.
Ron licked her lips, a dangerous light emanating from her eyes and a crazy smile on her face. Because she was a companion, she couldn't say anything when she was attacked just now.
But she is not someone who is easy to talk to, and it is time to vent her resentment...
Chapter 252 Beam Strike
Dragging the greatsword, War-weary dodged the aerial fire flexibly while gasping and shouting.
"Run into the ruins!"
The fake fearsome ones in the rear seemed to have learned their lesson. They no longer foolishly tried to dive-bomb with bombers, but instead switched to attack planes, flying at low altitude and strafing continuously.
This was how the battle unfolded before the Son of Prometheus showed up. Without air superiority, unless one had a numerical advantage, one could only wait to die.
Although the ship girls gliding at full speed is fast, it is also very physically demanding. After being chased for such a long time, everyone is more or less tired.
In this situation where they could only passively take the beating, everyone was in a very impatient mood, and some were even impatient and wanted to turn around to fight back, but fortunately they were held back by Nagato.
They still need to wait for their own aircraft carrier to hear the sound of fighting and come to support them...
"Is it possible? Those guys have been chasing us for an hour!"
"I don't know. Let's run first. If the situation becomes critical, I will put on the Ring of Oath and break the rules."
"I'm not questioning you, Nagato. I just think something is wrong. There are more and more carrier-based planes in the sky, but we haven't even seen the shadow of our reinforcements."
"Wait, wait a little longer..."
Nagato had her own thoughts. The fox's sixth sense told her that if they broke the rules at this time, they might not be able to participate in the next battle.
She would definitely pilot the Mecha God to save the situation before the situation became desperate and casualties occurred, but it had not come to that point yet.
Hearing the meaning of Nagato's words, War-weary shook his head helplessly and shouted to St. Louis who was running for his life not far away: "St. Louis also has the Ring of Oath, then you and Nagato will fight together!"
"I, I didn't establish a mental link with the commander... huhuhu."
"I saw you two kissing on the beach last time, and now you tell me there's no mental link!?"
"Kissing and establishing a mental connection are two different things."
"This is still two yards..."
"!"
