Azur Lane Mobile Front.

New Jersey felt incredibly light at that moment.

Although she could no longer feel her body at all, she was still able to control herself to move forward.

In the deep "tunnel", flashes of light appeared from time to time.

It is these receding lights that tell New Jersey that she is still moving forward.

"Diberlu, why have you come to the world under my jurisdiction?"

"And what caused your appearance?"

A clear, cool female voice entered the ears of New Jersey.

The next second, New Jersey felt that her surroundings were rushing backward, and the female voice became clearer and clearer as she moved forward.

...

After an unknown amount of time, New Jersey stopped listening.

Before her stood a girl with white hair and red eyes.

As if sensing New Jersey's arrival, the girl raised her head and looked at New Jersey.

"You—are Herophite?"

"Anticx, Arbitration Authority Herofente V."

"Your arrival is quite unexpected."

"As ships, you should not possess such capabilities."

"At the same time, I also believe that your arrival is reckless."

"I left this mass-produced individual behind only to send out a signal of danger."

"All you need to do is stay vigilant."

"Also, I'm quite curious about your method of communication."

"Because, according to my calculations, this mass-produced body has already lost the most basic mental capacity for communication due to the pollution."

New Jersey was a bit bewildered.

She simply greeted the person on the other end.

Meanwhile, the guy on the other side, Herophant, started rambling on and on about a whole bunch of things.

More importantly, although she said a lot, it was as if she said nothing at all.

"Stop, stop, stop!"

"Can you get to the point?!"

New Jersey eventually interrupted Herophant's words.

Because she felt that if things continued like this, this thing in front of her could keep her talking for a whole year.

"Based on past experience, when communicating with strangers, starting by talking about some unimportant topics can help build rapport."

"At least in my experience, this is very effective."

"It's like..."

As she spoke, Herophette even began to recount examples of her previous interactions with unfamiliar ships.

Once she started talking, she seemed unable to stop.

In addition, Herofente, as an arbitration body, has extensive experience.

With both of these combined, this special space was suddenly filled only with that clear, cold female voice recounting her past experiences.

...

Before long, the lovely Miss New Jersey started to look confused.

"Eh..."

On the other side, Herophette seemed to have no intention of stopping, continuing to recount her past incessantly.

"Ah! Enough of that! Tell me, how did you end up looking like this?"

Finally, New Jersey interrupted Herophant once again.

"Hmm...we should definitely focus the conversation on this aspect."

"This matter should be traced back to not long ago."

"Because of the loss of the builder, the tasks of various arbitration bodies in various experimental fields have been greatly affected."

"It is not uncommon for multiple individuals to act as arbitration bodies in a single experimental field as a last resort."

"At that time, I was focused on the experiment I was conducting."

“The arbitration body, Diberlu XV, has found me.”

The name "Arbitration Authority - Dibey Road" immediately put New Jersey on edge.

Because this arbitration body was present during the Battle of Scapa Flow.

"She asked me for help."

"Because some unexpected things happened in the experimental field she was in charge of."

"Since this situation is not uncommon, I agreed."

"However, little did I know that this was the beginning of my nightmare."

"The Arbitration Authority, Diberlu XV, has overseen the invasion of the world by 'X'."

"And the arbitration body, Diberlu himself, has also been affected by the pollution."

"When I went to her experimental site as promised to help her improve the experimental process, the Arbitration Authority, Diberlu, activated her powers and took control of my vessel."

"..."

When Herofente gets to the point, he doesn't seem to waste much time with unnecessary words.

Perhaps, her "talkativeness" is just, as she said, a series of tactics before formal communication.

Of course, most people can't stand this kind of method.

"Eh...so you mean there's a traitor among you Sirens?"

"In fact, that is indeed the case."

"The message I left for you before is that you should be extra careful when you encounter the arbitration body, Diberlu."

"It would be best to destroy her directly."

"Huh?"

Chapter 619: Diberlu's Abnormality

“Diberlu, right? I’ll remember that.”

"But you still haven't gotten to the point!"

"What exactly is this 'X'?!"

Although the other party did say some useful things, New Jersey felt that he could probably learn more from them.

"The data cannot be accessed, so I don't know the answer to this problem."

"The moment the arbitration body, Diberlu, seized control of this individual, I disconnected it from the host."

"Because I am certain that after knowing Diberlu's information, 'X' will definitely be able to use the same method to find the location of our mainframe."

"Therefore, my host is now in a locked hibernation state."

"Eh...so you can't tell me any more information?"

"That's right. The amount of information that a single individual container can record is limited."

"I have quite a few experimental records here about various experimental sites. Do you need them?"

Seeing that the other party was about to start "telling stories" again after a single disagreement, New Jersey suddenly felt a chill.

"Eh...no, no, no, we already know the message you're trying to convey!"

"I won't bother you any longer, goodbye!"

As if something terrifying was present before him, New Jersey immediately snapped his mind out of his current state.

Immediately afterwards, there was another wave of consciousness traveling through the tunnel, and New Jersey felt as if he were going through it again.

When she opened her eyes, her consciousness had returned to her body.

She turned to look around, and the surrounding ships all cast concerned glances at her.

At the same time, the way the others looked at Herophant became more fearful.

Because this arbitration body is really good at talking!

"Um... New Jersey sister... are you... alright...?"

The unicorn tentatively asked New Jersey a question, and then received a hearty smile from New Jersey.

"Mission accomplished perfectly, we can leave now!"

"Understood, retreat!"

Belfast gave the order without hesitation, and several ships immediately withdrew their forces, pulling New Jersey back.

However, before leaving, Richelieu took one last look at the Holy Throne Crown in Herofente's hand.

She frowned slightly, but ultimately reached out and took it back.

“Miss Richelieu, I think this thing might belong to this Siren.”

Yorktown astutely noticed Richelieu's move.

"Hmm~ I know. That's why Iris had to say goodbye to the so-called Holy Throne Crown."

"Is that so..."

Yorktown looked thoughtfully at the Holy Throne Crown that Richelieu had reclaimed, and nodded slightly.

...

As New Jersey exited the state of quantum burst, Herofente, deep within his consciousness, sensed that the chaos that had always shrouded his consciousness was about to return.

"It seems that my mission as a vessel has been accomplished."

"However, this time, I will not repeat the same mistakes."

"..."

...

In the real world, just as the group from New Jersey left the area where Herofent was, an even stronger beam of light descended from the sky and shone directly on Herofent.

"Did it self-destruct...?"

"Hmm... as she said, now that she's done what she was supposed to do, there's no need to keep this body at the mercy of others!"

After having one conversation with the other party, New Jersey had some understanding of Herofente.

Although once the other party starts talking, they can be quite terrifying.

However, New Jersey also had to admit that this Siren was indeed a gentle type that could be communicated with.

Yes, she's just too good at communicating.

...

On the Gamma, the newly returned New Jersey crew arrived at the bridge after undergoing a "purification".

Compared to Herofente, New Jersey's account is much more concise.

Upon hearing this, Feilong Meta, who had come along, frowned.

"As expected, something happened to Herophette. However, I never imagined that she was framed."

"No, what's more important to me is that Dibero did come to this world back then."

"Based on the information we have just received, we cannot determine whether she was contaminated after or before that."

Rob also frowned; the matter was not over.
