Azur Lane Mobile Front.

"Is this the Ironblood Mirror Sea?"

"Fighting in this environment is extremely difficult!"

After a sudden wave of dizziness, Glorious found himself and the Royal Navy fleet had entered an extremely dark sea.

If you could still see some starlight on the sea before, you can't see any light at all here.

The pitch-black seawater was like a terrifying abyss that was about to swallow everything, sending chills down one's spine.

In this environment, launching and recovering carrier-based aircraft is virtually impossible.

Now, we can only wait and see what role those who transcend the banner can play.

...

After a period of time.

While the Royal Navy was still exploring in the dark in the Mirror Sea, the Ironblood Fleet had already circled around and arrived at the location where the Royal Navy had been before.

Prince Eugen's idea was simple.

She was going to flank them from the rear.

"Hmm~ this should be it."

"I wonder if our guests enjoyed their time in the mirror-like sea."

"Now, let's wait and see~"

...

In the Mirror Sea, the Royal Fleet's situation can be described as quite precarious.

Ironblood has clearly set up a workshop for carving chess pieces in the mirror-like sea area here.

A steady stream of mass-produced chess pieces poured into the Royal Fleet from all directions.

Although the Royal Navy fleet was equally large, the number of both mass-produced and actual ships was ultimately limited.

Moreover, these pieces have clearly been modified by Ironblood.

The gap between them and their "prototypes" is not as large as one might imagine.

Even worse.

Among these deployed pieces, there are also a considerable number of submarine-type pieces.

Under the cover of night, these submarine pieces caused the Royal Navy a great deal of trouble.

Ironblood probably knew that submarines, as a type of ship, were of very limited use to Robo's side.

Therefore, they committed all their submarine pieces to the battle against the Royal Navy.

"How much bravery is left?"

With a magnificent strike that sinks a chess piece, Queen Elizabeth fully demonstrates the exceptional mobility of the fairy Leon.

Amidst the densely packed army of chess pieces, she and Yingyong danced like butterflies among flowers, harvesting the pieces.

Of course, whether she was slacking off or not, depending on the performance settings, is another matter.

"I don't have time to care about those things!"

The response to Queen Elizabeth was a brave, somewhat frantic voice.

...

When faced with a sufficient number of enemies, the trap Robb had set for the Royals finally came to light.

Whether it's the fairy Leon or those flag-shaped ones.

Their firepower is not particularly strong.

Compared to traditional ships, their advantages lie more in maneuverability and flight performance.

However, when the enemy has a large number of Sirens or other mass-produced pieces and doesn't care about the cost, their slow "mowing" speed becomes apparent.

In particular, when the war-weary Gundam DX was unable to participate in the battle.

On the other hand, the situation in Nelson was even worse.

Because of insufficient preparation, they even struggled to aim their attacks.

If the enemy wasn't so densely packed that they could fire randomly and potentially hit one or two unlucky targets, the warships would probably still be in a state of "air force" (meaning they are currently out of commission).

As for getting close enough to engage in melee combat, that's an even more unreliable idea.

It's important to understand that torpedoes, while not particularly useful under normal circumstances, are still a significant type of weapon.

However, when placed face-to-face, it will still hit.

Not to mention the submarines beneath the surface that could steal things at any moment.

If it weren't for the anti-submarine operations being carried out by other ships, these Royal Navy ships would probably be in a much worse situation.

"Sister, I think we need to retreat."

This environment is extremely unfavorable for us.

Rodney, who had firepower but no way to use it, said to Nelson beside him with some frustration.

"Hmph~ Then go tell His Majesty~"

"Get it!"

Using the light from the enemy's firing, Nelson managed to locate his target.

With a deafening roar, a volley of shells was fired into the distance.

Shortly afterward, a series of explosions rang out.

...

Just as the Royal Fleet was considering retreating due to the extremely harsh combat environment, a distress signal made everyone's hearts tighten.

Because this signal was emitted by the cygnets.

Little Swan was one of the members who went on the mission with Hood.

"Radiance, can you figure out the direction of the signal?"

Because the heroics had taken over most of the fighting, Queen Elizabeth even had time to deal with other matters.

"We can figure out the general direction."

"However, I cannot be sure if this is a scheme by the Ironblood side."

"You must know, Your Majesty, where is this place..."

"There's no time to hesitate. Notify the fleet to proceed in the direction the signal was sent!"

"As for the breakthrough point, I will personally find it!"

Queen Elizabeth, who had not been on the battlefield for a long time, displayed considerable boldness at this moment.

Of course, it would be even better if we ignored Yingyong, who was practically exhausted to death.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid your plan will have to wait before it can be implemented."

However, at this moment, Glorious's slightly helpless voice rang out again on the communication channel.

"A new batch of signals suddenly appeared behind us."

"Moreover, their numbers are not many."

"I suspect it might not be a pawn, but rather the Ironblood's actual fleet."

"???"

...

The signal that Glorious detected was naturally the Ironblood Fleet led by Prince Eugen.

Compared to the harsh environment on the Royal Navy's side, the Ironblood Fleet, which has access to the Mirror Sea, has absolutely no difficulty in detection.

Prince Eugen even had time to watch the live broadcast of the battle on the Royal side.

"Hmm~ Alright, we should be close enough now. It's time to say hello to our guests."

Calculating the distance between the two sides, Prince Eugen ordered the fleet to slow down.

Prince Eugen waved his hand, and August, standing to the side, understood immediately.

With a roar, a colossal metal dragon soared into the air, heading towards the Royal Fleet.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

On Rob's side, after careful reconnaissance, they also entered the Ironblood Mirror Sea.

What was strikingly similar to what happened on the royal side was that he was also surrounded by complete darkness.

"what the hell?"

"Is Ironblood preparing for a night battle?"

Chapter 639: Rob's Contingency Plan

Rob has actually been in the Mirror Sea for some time now.

However, compared to the grand welcome from the royal family, his side was much quieter.

It was even a little too quiet.

Since entering this place, he hasn't seen a single iron-blooded fleet, let alone a few fish.

"Hey, Commander, how about I go down and do some reconnaissance with the carrier-based aircraft?"

This feeling of knowing there's an enemy but being unable to hit them is frustrating not only for Robo, but also for Haku.

She stood behind Rob, her toes tapping lightly on the ground.

"Don't be silly, the outside is even darker than when William was building the ship, what can the carrier-based aircraft possibly see?"

Luo Bo rolled his eyes at Bai Long and rejected the suggestion without even thinking.

"William? Who's that?"

In Bailong's worldview, she really doesn't care about any other humans except for Luo.

Naturally, she wouldn't know who William, whom her commander had just mentioned, was.

"Oh~ William was the commander's classmate in school. He had bad luck."

If others are unfamiliar with it, it's impossible for a company not to be.

No matter how much she slacked off back then, she was still dragged to class by her older sister.

She could remember very clearly any of Rob's classmates, even if she had only met them once.

"That's so strange~"

Although he roughly knew who William was talking about, it was clear that White Dragon hadn't caught the flaw in his commander's words.

Her proposal was rejected, which made her a little upset.

She casually found a spot to sit down, holding her katana, and Bailong leaned there silently with her cheeks puffed out.

“Commander, there’s some truth to what she said.”

"If we keep searching aimlessly like this, it's easy for something to go wrong."

After thinking it over, the company realized that it was time for them to step forward.

Normally, this task is assigned to Zhenhai, but he's not here right now.

Seeing his initial ship say this, Rob waved to Enterprise.

The businesswoman, understanding the unspoken message, sat down on Rob's lap.

"Of course I know that."

"So we've left ourselves a backup plan."

"A backup plan? Commander, I don't understand."

Enterprise is fully aware of what its commander has been doing lately.

She thought about it for a long time, but still couldn't figure out what Rob meant by his backup plan.
