Azur Lane: I Traveled Through Graduation Port

Even if he wanted to help Liyun fulfill his wish, he couldn't let the ship girls keep dragging a heavy mecha as big as a building.

"Captain...hiss...hiss...something's happening...hiss...changes..."

"You can... s ...

"She's making a hissing sound... right there..."

Lin Lan did not notice the blue light emitted from Lieyun's eyes, which scanned his body from top to bottom.

As the sound of Liyun became smaller and smaller, he wanted to continue asking for more information.

But unfortunately, after Lieyun tried his best and raised his arm to point at the burning Huaiwu City, the blue light in his eyes completely went out.

The final move of this Tyrant Mecha was to keep pointing its finger towards Huaiwu City.

Lin Lan silently looked at the Tyrant Mecha named Liyun, then raised his hand slightly and saluted the Tyrant Mecha with the military salute of the Oran Navy.

"Commander, its energy source has been exhausted and it is completely damaged."

After a long time, Egil's voice came from Lin Lan, asking Lin Lan to put down his hands.

He looked to his side. Egil, who was controlling the dragon ship to continue supporting the wreckage of the Cloud Rift, had come to his side at some point and was standing next to him, looking at the wreckage of the Tyrant Mecha.

Egil's face was not looking good. Looking at this domineering mecha supported by her dragon ship, she seemed to have thought of something bad.

"Put it on the bottom of the ocean and let it rest in peace."

Lin Lan held Egil's hand and said in a heavy tone.

"I will never let you go through this, I swear."

Although Lin Lan had never experienced a real war, Donghuang where he was on Blue Star was already a peaceful country.

But now, Lin Lan has deeply realized one thing.

The word "war", which is only mentioned briefly in textbooks and history books, may mean the loss of thousands of lives.

He would never let his ship girls fall into the abyss of war.

“Hahaha, don’t worry Commander. I, the God of the Wild Sea, am not that fragile on the battlefield.”

After staring at Lin Lan for a while, Egil suddenly laughed heartily.

The girl with silver hair and golden eyes with red highlights straightened her back with great confidence and snapped her fingers at her dragon ship suit.

Under her control, Liyun was slowly sunk to the bottom of the sea by the iron-blooded dragon and disappeared on the sea surface.

"We are going to Huaiwu City. Whether it is for the request of this Tyrant Mecha or to find the Advanced Siren and Mirror Sea Center here, we have to go there to get the answer."

Lin Lan said to Egil after watching the wreckage of the Rift Cloud being completely submerged by the sea.

"Hahaha, got it."

The supercruiser girl gave Lin Lan a sly smile, then returned to her ship on the sea surface, turned around and started sailing.

The entire iron-blooded fleet, under the command of Lin Lan, slowly sailed towards the burning Natlan territory, Huaiwu City.

Looking at the burning Donghuang-style ancient city getting closer and closer, Lin Lan began to recall the historical materials he had learned about the war between Oran and the Natlan Empire at the Naval Academy.

At the beginning, when the two countries first came into contact and established diplomatic relations, their diplomatic attitudes toward each other were very friendly.

Even during the honeymoon period, Orlan's then admiral was received by the Natlan Emperor, and the two countries held a joint military parade in the capital of the Natlan Empire.

With the support and encouragement of the Natlan Empire, Oran carried out a large number of immigration and factory construction. Merchant ships flowed continuously between the two countries, which was a prosperous era.

But with the untimely death of the cheerful Emperor Natlan, his prince's attitude towards the United States of Oran suddenly changed drastically after he came to power.

The various convenient industrial products produced by Oran at that time were very popular in the Natlan Empire.

The new emperor, using the excuse that Orlan was maliciously disrupting the foundation of the country, mobilized the imperial army and launched a devastating attack on the factories built by Orlan throughout the Natlan Empire overnight.

In just a few days, a large number of workers and immigrants from the United States of Oran died inexplicably under the sudden butcher knife of the Natlan Empire.

Although the president of the United States of Oran asked the new emperor of Natlan to give an explanation, the Natlan Empire directly cut off all diplomatic channels with Oran and continued to massacre the Oran people in its territory.

As a result, the United States of Oran could no longer tolerate it, and the Hundred Years' War between the two great powers broke out.

Chapter 162 Huaiwu City

As a Donghuang civil engineer who had received higher education on Blue Star, Lin Lan naturally only believed half of the historical information in the Red Leaf Naval Academy.

When a war breaks out between two countries, no matter which country it is, the domestic propaganda it broadcasts is sure to be that it is the righteous side.

If he believed all of Oran's unilateral historical data, he would be a fool.

Whether it is the perspective of greedy businessmen and consortiums, or the perspective of President Oran who is eager to gain more votes by expanding territory.

He didn't believe that Orlan would just build factories and trade goods normally on the territory of the Natlan Empire.

Merchants and consortiums are eager to use cheap industrial products to earn a large amount of luxury goods and specialty resources with research value in the Natlan Empire.

The Oran government and the president hope to send a large number of spies to find out the military strength and secret information of the Natlan Empire in order to prepare for future wars.

How can the interactions between countries be so simple as black and white? Only children would believe that.

But even so, Lin Lan still believed that the new emperor of the Natlan Empire was too cruel and bloody in his treatment of the Orlan people.

Let’s not talk about declaring war openly, at least those citizens of Oran who really just came to work or immigrate should not deserve to be put to death.

According to records from Oran, by the time the Oran army arrived at the mainland of the Natlan Empire, the total number of Oran citizens who died in the Natlan Empire had reached a terrifying number of hundreds of thousands.

These are hundreds of thousands of living people, not hundreds of thousands of animals.

During the hundred-year war between the two countries, the number of casualties in Oran alone could be counted in the millions.

Lin Lan believed that if he was really a native Oran, even if he knew what Oran had done before the war, he would still hate the Natlan Empire immensely.

Shaking his head, Lin Lan threw away the entanglement between the two countries in his mind.

He was just a time traveler from Blue Star, who came here to find his wives from all over the place and return to the port area.

His biggest enemy is only the Sirens, and he is too lazy to delve into the political entanglements between countries.

Those who follow me will prosper, and those who go against me will perish.

It was enough for him to just keep this simple point in mind.

The Iron Blood Fleet gradually approached the ancient Natlan city named Huaiwu City. The surrounding wooden boat fleet finally discovered them and began to turn their main guns to prepare to attack the ship girls.

However, how can these bulky ships, which are not even as good as the mass-produced Sirens, be a match for the Iron-Blooded Ship Girls?

“Boom!” “Boom!!”

Following Egil's first firing, the other ship girls also poured their main gun ammunition towards the Natlan fleet.

Led by the Z-destroyer leader Z1, the four Z-destroyers continued to fire while dropping groups of torpedoes into the water, dragging waves and dealing heavy damage to the bulky wooden ships of the Natlan fleet.

By observing the battle situation on the command ship, Lin Lan noticed that these dark brown wooden warships of the Natlan Empire, although they appeared to be made of wood.

But its actual strength is comparable to that of steel, and it is difficult to catch fire.

It seems that the dark brown wood used by the Natlan Empire to build warships is not available in the United States of Orlan.

specialty.

These wooden warships surrounding Huaiwu City were soon sunk by the fierce attack of the Iron Blood Fleet and turned into wreckage floating on the sea.

Lin Lan and others passed through the wreckage of the wooden ship, and he also found that there were no real Natlan crew members who fell into the sea on the sea covered with wreckage.

"Sure enough, these ships were created by the Sirens in this mirror sea, imitating the pawns of the Natlan Empire fleet. This is still an illusion after all."

After passing through the wreckage, Lin Lan and others finally reached the dock of Huaiwu City.

Although it is called a dock, it has been basically destroyed by the war.

The wooden buildings near the dock were being devoured by flames, and a large number of bodies wearing armor who died in battle were lying in disorder on the dock.

"Commander! Stay beside me, I will protect you!"

As soon as they stepped on land, Blücher rushed over and hugged Lin Lan's arm tightly.

"Hehe, if Zeppelin were here, he would definitely be extremely excited."

Egil looked around the ancient city that was about to be completely destroyed, and sneered at the pink-haired cruiser beside him:

"Of course, someone here might be excited as well."

After hearing Egil's words, Lin Lan looked at Ron.

At this time, Ron, the always gentle pink-haired big sister, has completely entered a fighting posture.

The corners of her mouth were curled up wildly, her eyes were flashing blood red, and her body was shaking constantly, as if she was very excited about this devastated battlefield.

"Oh, Ron's dual personality is really..."

Lin Lan shook his head. He really needed to pay more attention to Ron's situation.

Just after everyone got onto the dock, suddenly, a loud explosion and a series of gunshots were heard in the city that was set on fire.

But if they wanted to get there, they had to face the densely packed buildings that were already engulfed in flames.

"Leave the flames to me, and use your ship equipment to block objects falling from above."

To cross the sea of ​​fire, Lin Lan has his own unique way.

Lin Lan took out a black jade from his waist bag and walked to the edge of the sea of ​​fire under the protection of the ship girls around him.

"Retreat."

As he raised his hand holding the black jade, he spoke softly.

The raging fire that could no longer be easily extinguished in front of everyone suddenly seemed to come to life, slowly retreating to the sides to make way for a passage.

Moreover, the scorching heat that everyone who was standing by the fire originally felt suddenly became cooler as Lin Lan spoke.

An ancient Liaozhou item that can be made by a brave man, the fire-proof jade bead.

The activation effect of this jade bead is that it can greatly enhance the user's and the people around him/her resistance to fire elements, and it can also disperse the fire elements within a radius of more than ten meters.

This astonishing scene shocked the ship girls around Lin Lan. They never knew that their commander had such ability.

"Commander, can you make a few more meows of this jade stone later?"

When the petty profiteer Mingshi saw the remarkable effect of the fire-proof jade beads in Lin Lan's hand, his eyes widened. He quietly approached Lin Lan and asked.

"No problem. I'll make a few more of these for your store as treasures. Time waits for no one. Let's go."

This fire-proof jade bead is not difficult to make. Lin Lan agreed to Mingshi.

He and everyone else walked towards the road leading to the city, which was originally covered in fire.

Hearing Lin Lan's words, Mingshi showed a happy smile on his face, and followed his iron-blooded companions closely into the city.

"Crench!"

Egil, who was walking in the front, controlled the dragon ship and fell in front of everyone to clear away the debris of buildings that blocked the road.

Although the flames were driven back, the smoke and burnt smell from the burning cabin still lingered.

As the sea of ​​fire dissipated, everyone walked on the streets of Huaiwu City. Lin Lan kept observing the exteriors of the surrounding buildings that had been burned.

Everything in this city made him feel like he had arrived in ancient Donghuang.

In addition, the Natlan Empire has always been famous for its martial spirit. Lin Lan felt as if he had traveled back to the Blue Star.

"This place really looks like the style of Donghuang."

He was not surprised to hear the sigh from Blücher beside him.

After all, there were Donghuang-style buildings in the port area where he used to live.

The ship girls of the Donghuang camp always hold various activities such as New Year’s Eve dinner and fireworks shows during the Chinese New Year, and invite camps across the port area to participate.

So after Blücher sighed, the iron-blooded ship girls around him also suddenly realized.

No wonder everything here looks so familiar.

"Commander, if I remember correctly, you seem to be from Donghuang? When you see the appearance of this city, will you..."

Prince Eugen, who was walking in front of Lin Lan, suddenly turned around and looked at Lin Lan worriedly.

Except for Eugen, the other ship girls also looked at him with concern.

After all, their commander was walking in a ruined city that looked so much like his hometown.

They were worried that the commander would be sad to see this ancient city devastated by war.
