Even in the world of Kancolle, I want to drive a robot!

"I have tried my best..."

"Ajax... I'm sorry, I can't bring the reinforcements back."

"Warspite, I can't let you board the RX-02."

"03... Even without me, you must continue to move forward firmly."

"..."

The RX-02 could no longer be started. Xia Bai sat in the cockpit without taking it back. In the last moments of his life, he wanted to die together with his old friend.

Touching Sirius's silver hair, Xia Bai untied the cloth that bound them. He could feel his life slipping away, but Sirius should not die here.

Pushing the other person, Xia Bai looked at her red eyes gently.

"Let's go. You have to survive even if you are alone."

Feeling Xia Bai's ethereal mental fluctuations, Sirius understood what he meant. He shook his head slightly and answered sadly with his mental power.

"I don't want to be alone anymore... just let me stay with you."

Looking up, Sirius hugged Xia Bai tightly and kissed her with his pale lips. She would never leave. The girl who had been seeking existence and longing to be needed all her life finally got everything she wanted.

Although it passed away quickly again, Sirius, whose heart was filled with happiness, no longer needed anything. Her last wish was to disappear along with this bubble-like dream.

Are you willing to sink with me? ...That's enough...That's enough. I am so incompetent, but I got such an answer in the end.

I can’t open my eyes anymore…I’m so tired…I really want to take a rest…

Feeling the soft touch on his lips, Xia Bai slowly closed his eyes, without regrets or sadness. Darkness swept over him and he lost consciousness.

The mental fluctuations completely dissipated, Sirius looked at Xia Bai's face, then leaned his head on his chest and closed his crimson eyes.

"Good night."

On the dim and cold seabed, inside a dilapidated mecha, a man and a woman hugged each other tightly, experiencing the tranquility of the moment, as if they were asleep.

Chapter 16: Information Arrived (Third Update!)

He broke the ship's armor of the Heavy Cruiser Siren with one punch and kicked it away. RX-03 in the cockpit wiped the sweat off his forehead. The method his second brother found to deal with the Heavy Siren was indeed useful.

The sirens on the Solomon Line were as densely packed as locusts... but after just a few shots, they seemed to be stimulated and gushed out like a tide, scaring RX-03 into retreating quickly with the Son of Prometheus.

However, there were still some reckless Sirens who chased after them and tried to hold them back. RX-03 would not show mercy to the Sirens. After briefly investigating the situation of these teams of Sirens, it killed them back.

"Vulnerable..." Holding his barren chest, RX-03 observed the battle situation around him through the mecha. The Sons of Prometheus have completely gained the upper hand, and it seems that they will be able to win completely soon.

Focusing his gaze on the purple-black tower in the distance that was flashing strange light, RX-03 carefully thought about the purpose of Siren building such a building on the Solomon Line.

Suddenly, she felt an inexplicable palpitation, sadness filled her heart, and a strong sense of loss spread to all the sons of Prometheus on the battlefield. This was how RX-01 felt when he passed away.

Someone sank...

With this thought in mind, RX-03 was no longer calm and immediately turned on the communicator.

"Did you feel that feeling? Who sank?" She no longer dared to imagine how she should explain to Xia Bai. She had clearly promised that she would lead the others well when he was not around.

"Alpha team, everyone is safe."

"Beta team, everyone is safe."

"Gamma team, everyone is safe."

......

"Team Eta, everyone is safe... 03 sister, are we wrong?"

Hearing the hesitant question from the future, RX-03 lowered his head and wondered if he had been under too much pressure recently and had poor sleep...but everyone had this feeling, so what exactly happened?

Just when RX-03 was doubting herself, RX-16's crying voice brought her back to reality.

"Third sister, third sister... take a look at the life sensing system."

As if it couldn't hold it back anymore, RX-16's crying voice filled the entire cockpit through the communicator.

The only thing that could make RX-16, a heartless child, cry like this was... RX-03 quickly thought of something, and the finger that was about to point at the light screen stopped.

No, that guy is so strong, he definitely won't...

"Impossible, Senior can't be dead! The life sensing system has malfunctioned, 16, don't talk nonsense!"

CX-21's screams of collapse came from the communicator, and then it fell into silence. RX-03 could vaguely hear the crying of others.

He swallowed and tapped the light screen with his slender fingers. A frame appeared, showing the following number - 51/53. The RX-01 portrait at the top had dimmed.

Then the second avatar showing Xia Bai's stupid face also dimmed.

——RX-02 dies.

"..."

There must be something wrong with the life sensing system, just like CX-21 said, yes... I want to contact my second brother now. Thinking of this, RX-03 transferred the communication channel to Xia Bai.

"Brother, can you hear me? I have something important to tell you."

"Second brother? RX-02? Xia Bai? Say something!"

'Ding--'

The only response she got was a busy tone from the system.

Staring blankly at this scene, tears began to fall from the corners of his eyes without him noticing. The whole world fell into darkness. Although he was still on the battlefield, RX-03 did not move at all.

After the eldest brother left, you followed him and just left like that...

"Xia Bai, you bastard, you actually left the Son of Prometheus to me alone!" RX-03, who refused to accept the reality, began to curse.

"In order to catch up with you, I started using my brain. You're not good at planning, so I learned it. But what does this mean now?"

"One or two of you are like this, cruelly leaving me alone, you unreliable brothers."

"We have formed an alliance with the royal family, why......"

After venting his emotions, RX-03 curled up in the chair, sobbing silently.

She didn't know what to do anymore. Her fragile heart, which was usually covered up with strength and wisdom, now collapsed.

Everything the son of Prometheus did now seemed to be meaningless.

"Third sister, cheer up, you can't be depressed like this."

As the brain of the sons of Prometheus, RX-09 quickly adjusted her emotions and began to comfort RX-03. If she collapsed again at this time, everything would be in vain.

The RX-03 in the driver's seat slowly raised his head, his eyes that had lost their luster became bright again, and he gripped the thrust lever.

"A-Jacks!" He gritted his teeth and said the other person's name. His nails dug into his palms and blood flowed out, but he was completely unaware.

She handed her second brother over to the other party, but it sank a week later... She wanted to settle this account with the other party.

"Now, everyone evacuate the battlefield and turn on your engine limiters. Target - Royal."

"Yes!"

As RX-03's order was issued, the mechas on the battlefield gave up their targets. The four-wing thrusters sprayed out blue flames, like shining stars, quickly flying into the sky and illuminating the entire night.

--------------

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee."

"Don't move, I'm already dead."

"Yah, ah!"

"I said I'm already dead, why bother me?"

"Yeah?"

"You may not believe it, but I'm the kind of person who doesn't care about the floods after I die."

"Aa ...

"Are you annoying because of the constant babbling?"

Xia Bai couldn't sleep because of the inexplicable noise. He opened his eyes and found a Q version of Sirius with two heads and a body happily jumping on his chest.

"Am I going to hell or heaven?"

Picking up the Q version of Sirius and holding it in his arms, Xia Bai stood up from the ground and looked around. It was pitch black, with only the broken RX-02, missing its limbs, lying on the ground.

This scene is so familiar... Looking at the Q version of Sirius in his arms, and then looking at RX-02, he remembered, isn't this a dream he had before? At that time, it was still the Q version of Sheffield.

Chapter 17: One Heart and One Body

After a brief search, Xia Bai still couldn't figure out whether he was dead or alive. Logically, he should be dead.

He vividly remembered that he was defeated by Test Subject Alpha and sank to the bottom of the sea with serious injuries, and that the last moments of his life were spent with Sirius.

But there is no reason why I can't see Sirius after I die. Could it be that I went to hell and he went to heaven? Or is Sirius not dead?

This series of situations left Xia Bai confused. Just as he was about to take a walk with the Q version of Sirius in his arms, the cockpit door of RX-02 fell down.

Sirius crawled out and looked around in confusion. When he found Xia Bai, his crimson eyes flashed with joy and he immediately ran towards him.

Looking at the Q version of Sirius in his hand that was still babbling, and then looking at Sirius itself, a strange idea emerged in Xia Bai's mind.

She was indeed dead, and the Q version of Sirius in her hand was her daughter born in the afterlife. Thinking this way, everything seemed to make sense.

After quickly running to Xia Bai's side, Sirius hugged him and pressed his cherry lips against Xia Bai's mouth, constantly asking for more. The Q version of Sirius in his arms looked at the two of them curiously.

The pitch-black environment was filled with the unbearable sound of water stains. After a long time, the lips parted and a few silver threads dripped onto the ground.

Xia Bai was shocked by Sirius's behavior. After a moment of silence, she raised the Q version in her hand and said, "This...is this our child?"

As expected, my guess was correct. Sirius had already married me in the afterlife, so I kissed him without any scruples.

Looking at the babbling little creature in Xia Bai's hand, Sirius showed a confused expression: "This is a strand of my spiritual power. I don't know why it condensed into this."

Hearing this, Xia Bai awkwardly hugged the Q version of Sirius back into his arms, wondering what he was thinking about.

Wait...mental power!

Thinking of this, Xia Bai asked again: "Are we not dead?"

Leaning against Xia Bai, Sirius stroked his face gently, which was completely different from the impression he had given Xia Bai before.

"No, our spirits have been brought into this space, and our bodies are still at the bottom of the sea."

"Um... Sirius, do you know where this place is? Javelin and the others are still fighting with Tester Alpha on the sea. We need to get out quickly."

Since he is not dead, he certainly cannot just abandon the Javelin and ignore them. He must find a way to help them. Tester α is not an opponent that can be dealt with by a few ship girls. Xia Bai understands this well.

"I don't know..." As if because he was unable to help Xia Bai, Sirius lowered his head dejectedly, thought for a moment and said, "Maybe this little guy and that big guy know something." As he spoke, he pointed at the Q version of Sirius and the RX-02 lying beside him.

The strangest things about this space are these two things. The Q version of myself is fine, but how can the mecha come here when it clearly has no mental power?

Looking at the Q version of Sirius in his hand, and then at RX-02, Xia Bai wondered what the relationship was between the two. He had dreamed of this space before. At that time, he tried to control RX-02 and failed, but he also found a Q version of Sheffield...

Mental power, 'God', 'The Divinity', 'Fate Sirius', opening a bug in the operating system... link.

Yes... link!

Thinking of this, Xia Bai roughly understood the connection, but he didn't know if it would be useful. However, only by trying could he get to the truth.

"Sirius, let's do a mental link."

This is not much different from a confession. Even the commander will not be linked with all the ship girls under his command. Only when the relationship between the two parties is close to a certain level can it proceed smoothly.

"Yeah." Sirius nodded without any hesitation. From the moment she was needed, she was ready to give everything to Xia Bai.

The two mental powers began to intersect, and Xia Bai knew everything about Sirius, and Sirius also saw everything about Xia Bai.

She is lonely, crazy, and keeps training, eager to be needed by the world.

He is depressed, sad, constantly fighting, and longing to be recognized by the world.

The RX-02's extinguished eye straps flickered again, emitting a green light.

The next second, their minds returned to reality.

After closing the cockpit and pressing the pumping button, Xia Bai said to Sirius in his arms in a gentle voice, "Can you continue to fight?"

As the spirit was established, Xia Bai could clearly feel the other person's presence, and they were indistinguishable from each other.

"Of course, even if we go to hell, I will go with you."

Holding Sirius's hand tightly, Xia Bai pressed the start button of RX-02 with her.

'Om—'
