Pinghai nodded, not quite understanding.

Helena also returned to the main camp at this time. They were surrounded by a line of defense formed by destroyers, and Bismarck and Richelieu provided long-range fire suppression.

Lexington looked at Helena's nervous expression and asked quickly:

"what happened?"

Helena repeated her sister Brooklyn's analysis, and then waited for Lexington to make a decision. After all, the admiral was away, and the secretary ship would be the highest commander in the battle.

Lexington actually noticed something was wrong. When she was coordinating bombing operations and anti-submarine warfare with the raiders, she encountered a large-scale attack from light cruiser anti-aircraft guns. However, her carrier-based aircraft was only slightly damaged, which she thought was good luck at the time. After hearing what Helena said, she felt that if these deep-sea creatures were really just clones and not the originals, then this proved that the deep-sea harbor in front of her was already at the end of its strength. She thought about it, made a prompt decision, and decided to attack immediately!

The order was quickly passed down. The twelve ship girls just formed two fully-strength fleets. At this moment, they each formed a complex vertical formation and began to march towards the V-shaped Strait where the deep-sea light cruiser group and the deep-sea destroyer group were entrenched!

……

At this time, Li Ran and Jilin returned to the port dock.

Bai Nuoyan and Hipper were fishing on the deck of the merchant ship. Li Ran felt that the huge island suddenly became deserted, and he was a little uncomfortable with it. So he walked onto the bridge and boarded Bai Nuoyan's merchant ship.

"Hey, why are you here?" Bai Nuoyan was wearing a sunshade straw hat. She heard footsteps, and then saw that the fish was hooked. She quickly swung the fishing rod, and a big fish was pulled out of the sea. She laughed:

"What a big fish! You came just in time. We are just in need of a chef. Can you make sashimi?"

Li Ran was stunned for a moment and smiled bitterly. Bai Nuoyan's personality was really lively. However, it had been three or four hours since he had the beach barbecue, and he was a little hungry. He didn't have much appetite at noon, but he didn't feel hungry because he saw Jilin and Bai Nuoyan eating happily. But after Bai Nuoyan said that, he realized that his stomach was rumbling.

"Haha, I told you that you must be hungry since you ate so little at noon. Xixi, go get some bread and fruit." Bai Nuoyan put the fish into the fish basket, then sighed and said:

"I know you are worried about them, but you are so stupid. If they knew that you didn't eat on time because you were worried about them, I think they would be very disappointed. You still don't trust them."

"I really have no appetite." Li Ran said this with some lack of confidence. He looked at Bai Nuoyan and shrugged.

"Okay, I admit you were right."

"That's fine. I was thinking it's afternoon tea time now. I was just planning to go fishing for fun. I didn't expect you to come. It's just right. I haven't had enough for lunch yet."

Li Ran didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he felt a little touched. Bai Nuoyan actually wanted to make him less nervous, but he was not a native of this world after all, and he had not learned any common sense of this world since he was a child. He even took on the job and responsibility of admiral without knowing why, which resulted in him often unable to tell whether he was in reality or if it was just a dream. If it was a dream, he hoped not to wake up from it.

"Admiral, please eat something."

Hipper brought up the bread. These were some white breads, which were her own admiral's favorite. After all, most of the bread consumed on long sea voyages was black bread, and white bread was not easy to preserve. She handed the plate to Gilling and looked at the man with complicated eyes. To be honest, when she was an instructor at the headquarters of the KanColle Academy, she met many admirals who were better than Li Ran, but none of them was like this man.

Li Ran was brought back to reality by Jilin's words. He looked at her carrying the plate and saw that Hipper had returned to Bai Nuoyan. He realized that he was in a daze again and said quickly:

"Thank you."

Bai Nuoyan looked at Hipper absent-mindedly, knowing that she couldn't understand what Li Ran did, she chuckled and said:

"You're welcome, Admiral Li. Eat quickly. I'm waiting for you to make sashimi later. By the way, I have some drinks. I'll go get them."

……

At the same time, Lexington and others easily pierced through the seemingly terrifying number of deep-sea ships along the way, and finally, they sailed into the V-shaped Strait.

After entering the strait, as if they knew that their ID plan had been discovered, the deep-sea ships that emerged from the deep-sea harbor completely disappeared.

Saratoga felt that the increasingly narrow waterway was getting quieter and quieter, and she whispered:

"It's so quiet."

Lexington also felt very uncomfortable, so she summoned all the carrier-based aircraft to escort the team.

Finally, after passing the V-shaped channel, what came into view was the true appearance of the deep-sea harbor. This was also the first time that Lexington saw the deep-sea harbor with his own eyes.

The port in front of us was shrouded in a faint black mist. The entire port stood there quietly. From a distance, it seemed that only the port dock was black, and there seemed to be some collapsed building ruins along the coast.

The atmosphere in the combined fleet seemed a little tense. Lexington asked Helena:

"How's the situation? Have you found anything?"

Helena was in the First Fleet where Lexington was. She listened to Lexington's question. Through the radar, she found the area covered by black fog, which was the area that the radar could not explore. Moreover, the dense red dots on the radar had completely disappeared. It seemed that after entering the V-shaped channel, the deep-sea fleets had all disappeared. It seemed very strange. She organized her words and said:

"According to the radar, except for the area covered by the black fog, no hostile signals were found in other places. I think if the enemy is still there, they may be in the black fog."

Lexington frowned, thought for a moment and said:

"Line up, everyone, organize your ships, replenish your resources, and prepare to enter the Black Mist Dock."

"Understood." Everyone responded in unison.

Although Brooklyn and Striker are not Li Ran's ship girls yet, they are happy to accept command at this rare opportunity to attack a real deep-sea port.

Everyone began to prepare silently, and Ping Hai, who had been in charge of the alert, was very alert. Since she received Li Ran's first experimental transformation, she has trained harder than anyone else and was more alert than anyone else during battles. She paid close attention to the movements at the Black Mist Wharf, and then found a team of six deep-sea ship girls slowly coming out of the black fog. She immediately shouted:

"The enemy appears! All units, please pay attention!"

Everyone immediately took an attacking stance and quickly formed a battle formation. Then they looked towards the Black Mist Pier and found that a full-scale deep-sea fleet was slowly emerging from the black fog...

Chapter 87: Phoenix in the Black Mist

Everyone was on high alert, watching the deep-sea fleet slowly approaching from the depths of the Black Fog Wharf, and everyone was on full alert.

Lexington, Saratoga and Ranger launched all their carrier-based aircraft, and the sky above the deep-sea port area was filled with the roar of carrier-based aircraft.

However, no one was sure of absolute victory because this strange fleet made them feel very dangerous.

Ping Hai was also very nervous. She looked at the radar and found that it could not show any trace of the deep-sea fleet. She shouted:

"I failed to find the enemy."

Helena was the only ship that had been transformed. Although she had never told anyone about it, she no longer cared whether her secret was exposed or not after she confessed to the admiral. At this time, she used one of her abilities after the transformation, [Intelligence Analysis], to increase the success rate and hit rate of her own radar in searching for the enemy. Unfortunately, she was unable to search for the enemy even after using her ability.

The same was true for Brooklyn. Even when the radars of the three of them worked together, they were unable to detect the enemy. This proved that the level of training of this deep-sea fleet was much higher than theirs.

Helena immediately conveyed the situation to Lexington. Upon hearing that the search for the enemy had failed, the lady frowned deeply, and she felt the uneasiness in her heart becoming stronger.

Lexington sighed and asked Helena to notify the light cruiser girls to prepare for battle!

If the search for the enemy fails, it fails. After all, Lexington does not believe that this fleet can pose a threat to its air superiority.

However, where exactly this uneasiness came from was what she was really worried about.

The first and second fleets of Xiguang Island were divided into the left and right sides. Behind them was the long and narrow passage of the V-shaped Strait. Not far from them, the fleet that emerged from the mysterious black fog finally began to pour out their artillery fire.

Richelieu watched as the Deep Sea Fleet opened fire, but discovered that Bismarck was staring at the Deep Sea Fleet's flagship in a daze. She quickly asked:

"Bismarck, what's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing, maybe it's my illusion. Everyone get ready to evade it!" A hint of doubt flashed in Bismarck's eyes. She looked at the ship that served as the flagship of the Black Mist Fleet, and it turned out to be a heavy cruiser. However, the ship's equipment looked very much like the one in her memory.

A cannonball landed beside Firefly, blasting out a column of water that shot up into the sky, soaking the little girl all over. She looked at the deep-sea heavy cruiser that was firing the cannon with dissatisfaction, raised the magic wand in her hand, and shouted:

"I'll beat you up, you fierce one!"

Everyone was avoiding it, and no one expected that Firefly would be so bold as to launch a torpedo at this time.

Moreover, this time the torpedo actually hit the target.

Everyone was stunned. Seeing Firefly's meritorious service, they were about to cheer when they heard Pinghai shout:

"Fireflies are dangerous! Get out of the way!"

Firefly watched his torpedo hit the opponent, but after the explosion, he found that the opponent was unharmed. The two black shields in front of the deep-sea heavy cruiser were emitting golden light. The golden cross patterns on the black shields released something like a shield, which prevented the deep-sea heavy cruiser from being sunk by the torpedo.

This deep-sea heavy cruiser was angered by the Firefly's lightning strike. A cold light flashed in the golden pupils of this deep-sea cruiser. On both sides of her body were two heavy cruiser main guns, which were now aimed at the Firefly. Then, two shells whizzed and hit the Firefly, which had no time to dodge.

Firefly, broken!

Although Pinghai's reminder was a little late, it still gave Brooklyn, who was closest to the Firefly, time to react. She immediately pulled the damaged Firefly away and avoided the artillery fire from the two deep-sea battlecruisers that followed closely behind.

Firefly did not cry out in pain, but asked Brooklyn in confusion:

"Why are torpedoes ineffective against that guy?"

Brooklyn saw that the Firefly's ship suit had been severely deformed and distorted, and the torpedo launcher was seriously damaged. However, the destroyer girl did not cry out in pain, but asked why her attack failed. This made Brooklyn feel distressed and surprised. She led the Firefly out of the deep sea bombardment range first, and then said:

"It should be the Gold Pattern Advanced Deep Sea. Her ship's suit power released a shield that blocked the attack of ordinary torpedoes, but this shield should not be invincible."

Bismarck looked at Firefly who was injured. She looked at the two shields, her hands shaking with clenched fists. She took a deep breath and roared:

"No passing here!"

"Boom!"

Bismarck fired. She couldn't believe her own judgment, but she was sure at this moment that the deep-sea heavy cruiser equipped with two shields was exactly the same as Prinz Eugen except for the color of the ship's uniform and the color of the hair. She understood that the deep-sea heavy cruiser in front of her was the deep-sea version of Prinz Eugen.

"Bismarck!" Richelieu was a little worried when she saw Bismarck, who was always calm, suddenly open fire, and hurried forward to hold her back:

"what are you doing!"

"She is Prince Eugene, why! Damn it!" Bismarck broke free from Richelieu's hand, anger and sadness surged in his heart!

His best friend turned out to be his enemy. Why did Prince Eugen, who had always been dedicated to protecting everyone, become like this?

"Damn it!" Bismarck's madness caused the opposite deep-sea fleet to transfer all their hatred to her. Richelieu had to give up persuading Bismarck to retreat. This was the first time she saw Bismarck so out of control.

However, she understood why Bismarck was so angry, so she chose to stand silently by Bismarck's side.

Because Bismarck suddenly lost control, the formations of both sides were in disarray. However, Lexington heard Bismarck's roar and she just sighed:

"Don't worry about the formation, just attack with all your might!"

Helena had been paying attention to the V-shaped channel behind her. She discovered new information through the radar and shouted:

"Quick battle, quick decision. An unknown number of deep-sea fleets are approaching the V-shaped channel 30 nautical miles behind us!"

Everyone felt their hearts sink. Lexington immediately gave up the idea of ​​sending carrier-based aircraft to join the battle and said to his sister and the Raiders:

"Mobilize carrier-based aircraft to the airspace above the V-shaped channel to buy them some time!"

Saratoga and Raider nodded in agreement.

Pinghai and Kokang were responsible for covering the three aircraft carrier girls and taking care of the injured Sigsby. As for the others, they all participated in the battle against Prince Eugen of the Deep Sea.

Brooklyn helped Firefly to Sigsby's side and asked Pinghai and Guogan to take care of it.

Brooklyn sent Firefly back to Pinghai, and immediately returned to Richelieu and Bismarck with his sister Helena. Vauquelin looked at Richelieu with a tense face.

Now it becomes five against six, and the team of Prince Eugen of the Deep Sea has suddenly turned from an absolute advantage to a disadvantage.

After Bismarck was hit by a deep sea battlecruiser, she finally came to her senses while covering her injured left turret. She looked at the sisters around her with full of apology. Richelieu shook his head, blocking Bismarck's apology, and said:

"Bismarck, you must care about Prince Eugen very much. If you care about her, then don't give up. Even if you have to sink her with your own hands, you can't let her become a dead sea. I think that protecting Prince Eugen is what he wants, not destroying and hurting everyone like this. If possible, Prince Eugen must hope that you will be the one to save her!"

Bismarck was stunned for a moment. She slowly clenched her fists and nodded gently. When she looked at Prince Eugen of the Deep Sea, a trace of struggle and sadness flashed in her eyes, and finally turned into calmness. She gently stroked the Iron Cross medal on her chest and pointed all the ship's gun muzzles at Prince Eugen of the Deep Sea.

As if sensing the danger, the two deep-sea battlecruisers and three deep-sea light cruisers responsible for guarding you wanted to open fire to stop Bismarck, but they were greeted by the fire of Richelieu. All they heard was Richelieu holding a knight's sword and speaking in an impassioned tone:

"Target enemy deep sea, fire!"

Helena and Brooklyn felt the aura emanating from Richelieu and were deeply moved. They stood on the left and right of Richelieu and said in unison:

"Fire!"

At this time, Vauquelin's eyes were shining with admiration for Richelieu. She was not willing to be outdone and fired all her torpedoes. Six torpedoes on the sea, together with the artillery fire of Richelieu and others, severely damaged several deep-sea ships guarding Prince Eugen of the Deep.

Although it was not sunk, it bought time for Bismarck's bombardment.

Bismarck looked coldly at the strange Prince Eugen of the Deep Sea, and she whispered in her heart:

If I can't redeem you, then let me end your suffering with my own hands, Prince Eugen. If you can hear me, you must respond to me. The bottom of the sea is too cold.

"boom!"

Bismarck opened fire, and several shells drew deadly arcs and all hit the Prinz Eugen of the Deep.

As Brooklyn said, although the shield of the Deep Sea Prince Eugen blocked the torpedo attack of the Firefly, it does not mean that the shield is invincible. Bismarck is a battleship, and all its turrets can fire at the same time, which is not something a deep sea heavy cruiser can withstand, not even the Deep Sea Prince Eugen.

A trace of indifference flashed across Deep Sea Eugen's eyes. She raised the two black shields in her hands, trying to resist Bismarck's attack. However, what greeted her was that the black shield was shattered, the golden cross pattern was broken, and her shield was directly pierced.

Prince Eugen of the Deep Sea is broken!

However, just as Bismarck was preparing for the next round of bombardment and thoroughly understanding Prince Eugen of the Deep Sea, the mysterious black fog began to gather around Prince Eugen of the Deep Sea, and a black phoenix rose from the top of Prince Eugen of the Deep Sea.

"This is [Phoenix's Guardian], one of Prince Eugen's abilities before he died. Damn deep sea!" Bismarck looked at the phoenix transformed from black mist, which broke apart and merged into the broken body of Prince Eugen. After the black mist completely dissipated, the broken deep-sea Prince Eugen returned to his original state.

A cold murderous intent flashed in Bismarck's eyes at this moment. She looked at the disgusting black mist on Deep Sea Eugen that actually tarnished the phoenix with the name of guardian. She gritted her teeth and swore silently in her heart that I, Bismarck, will fight to the death with Deep Sea in this life!

As if sensing Bismarck's determination, her abilities showed signs of awakening for the first time.

Richelieu also saw the black mist turning into an ugly black bird and merging into Prince Eugen of the deep sea. At this moment, she felt the murderous intent. Yes, it was the first time that Bismarck showed the murderous intent.

She smiled bitterly, she seemed to have forgotten that Bismarck's ability was [Flagship Killer]. Was this an accident? It must be painful to have to fight against her former best friend in person.

The aura Bismarck exuded at this moment was the highest she had ever had, and it even gave Helena an illusion. If she didn't know Bismarck's training level, she would even suspect that Bismarck was an iron-blooded ship girl who had experienced many battles. She knew that Bismarck's training level was only level 18, but she had already reached the threshold of awakening abilities that could only be obtained after transformation. It's just that this murderous intent was not firm, and it seemed that she wanted more redemption than destruction.

Helena looked at Bismarck who was staring at Prince Eugen of the Deep Sea. She knew that perhaps the success or failure of this operation would depend on this one move.
