Azur Lane: I Traveled Through Graduation Port

"It seems that these two people are not bad-hearted."

After hearing the two people's orders to their respective ship girls, Lin Lan thought silently in his heart.

Although these Sirens are just weaklings to the Iron-Blooded Ship Girls, the two of them really want to take care of him.

In this case, it is impossible for him to really allow the two men's ship girls to suffer serious damage.

So he went to the first floor of the yacht and whispered a few words to Weser.

The ship equipment of his ship girls has the function of communication within a short distance, and Weser quickly conveyed what he said to Mainz, Z23 and others.

That is to protect these chess pieces and ship girls as much as possible while hiding one's own strength.

Chapter 204: Fierce Battle with Leviathan (3200 words)

As they got closer to the cargo ship crash site that Feng Tao mentioned, the number of mass-produced Sirens began to increase gradually.

These mass-produced Sirens are not like humanoid executors. They will lie dormant or retreat when they see something is wrong. Instead, they will attack mindlessly as long as an enemy enters the attack range.

Under Lin Lan's command, Z23, Mainz and others did not fire directly, but used torpedoes to secretly destroy the mass-produced Siren that was dangerous to the chess pieces and ship girls.

This action did not arouse the suspicion of Lu Yangshu and Qi Yue. After all, just looking at the appearance of the torpedoes, it was difficult to see any difference between their torpedoes and those of the chess piece ship girl.

So in the dangerous battle with a small number of Siren mass-produced warships, none of the chess piece ship girls were seriously injured.

Lin Lan and others also made smooth progress.

Due to the attack on the cargo ship, all voyages from the East Continent to Lanjiang City have been suspended, and they did not encounter any civilian long-distance ships along the way.

"Looking at the map, we should be almost at the site where the cargo ship crashed."

At around two o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Yangshu took out his tablet computer and spoke to Lin Lan and Qi Yue. The tablet displayed a map of the nearby sea area.

"If we return without finding anything, will there be any impact?"

Lin Lan looked at the empty sea around him and asked questions curiously.

We have reached the deep sea area.

The cargo ship's signal disappeared last night, and the ship girls that Feng Tao was responsible for escorting have not returned yet.

Lin Lan, who had experienced a Siren attack on a passenger ship before, understood clearly what this meant.

They have just arrived here and there is a high probability that they will get nothing.

"Even if we don't find anything, we will still get the reward we deserve. We just need to try our best to eliminate the remaining Sirens around and ensure the passage of subsequent routes."

The one who answered Lin Lan was Qi Yue. She looked at the endless ocean around her with a calm look in her eyes.

This is why, even though the crew's income is extremely high, it is difficult for the Tianou Group to recruit enough crew members every year.

Because in the ocean controlled by the Sirens, once something goes wrong, there is basically no chance of survival.

Even with a submersible lifeboat, the chances of escaping the Sirens' capture are slim.

After listening to Qi Yue's words, Lin Lan sighed silently.

He originally thought that the two commanders would have a submarine girl responsible for diving and salvaging, but it turned out that he had overestimated the Pseudo-Mind Cube.

It seems that he can only wait until these two people are gone before he lets the wolf pack dive to see if they can find the sunken chess piece ship girls for Feng Tao.

The reason why they don't do this now is that, on the one hand, there is no need for the wolf pack to take action to clear out these mass-produced Sirens, and these two people don't know that U81 and the others are submarine ship girls.

Secondly, he didn't want to make up reasons for the existence of submarine ship girls.

You can't possibly say that the ship girl was so affected by the power of the Sirens that even the type of ship she was on changed. That obviously doesn't make sense.

We stayed in this empty sea area under the clear sky for more than two hours.

Apart from sinking a few Siren mass-produced cruisers, they gained nothing as expected.

"Okay, let's start the return journey. We have already... done our best."

Looking at the sun in the sky

The sun began to set in the west, and Lu Yangshu, in a heavy voice, was the first to suggest turning back.

After hearing this, Qi Yue and Lin Lan both nodded slightly.

In these two hours, they had basically completed the search around the crash site provided by Feng Tao.

Unfortunately, neither the cargo ship nor the ship girl can come back.

"Xiao Lin, you have to get used to this kind of thing in the future. Your port is relatively close to this route, so there may be more rescue missions like this in the future."

Seeing that his junior seemed to be depressed because he had not found any survivors, Lu Yangshu walked over to Lin Lan and cheered him up.

"I know, thank you for your encouragement, I just can't accept it yet..."

Although Lin Lan felt sad about this ending, she was not as sad as she pretended to be.

After being encouraged by Lu Yangshu, Lin Lan restrained his sad expression, and spoke with clenched fists and gritted teeth, like an inspired young man with great ambitions.

"One day or another, I will take back the ocean and let the flag of Oran fly freely on the sea."

His words not only made Lu Yangshu look surprised, but even Qi Yue looked at him twice in surprise.

"Good boy, don't forget what you just said."

Lu Yangshu patted Lin Lan's shoulder hard, with admiration in his eyes.

Just as they were giving retreat orders to their respective ship girls and preparing to return home.

Suddenly, Lin Lan felt a strong sense of crisis rising in his heart.

"Commander! Enemy attack! Under the sea!"

It was not known which ship girl's cry of surprise was heard, but Lin Lan and others saw seven or eight thick dark green tentacles suddenly emerging from the sea water around the yacht!

The movement of the tentacles caused a huge wave, which instantly shook the tiny yacht under their feet!

Almost at the same time as these dark green tentacles covered with seaweed appeared, all the chess piece ship girls fired at the tentacles at the same time.

"Boom!"

The explosions from the small-caliber shells and torpedoes all hit the tentacles, but did not cause any damage to them at all.

These tentacles were waving wildly, which made people shudder.

"What kind of monster is this!"

Lu Yangshu was knocked to the ground by the violent impact of the waves. He felt dizzy and grabbed the railing of the stairs tightly. He took a long time to recover from the spinning before he let out a shocked cry.

Qi Yue was in an even more miserable state. She was caught off guard by the sudden impact and lost her balance, sliding towards the edge of the yacht.

Fortunately, a strong arm grabbed her arm firmly, preventing her from falling into the sea due to the sudden tilt of the yacht.

Looking up, Qi Yue saw that the junior in front of her grabbed the fixed dining table with one hand and saved her with the other hand.

Fortunately, the wave did not overturn the yacht directly. After tilting most of the way, the yacht quickly regained its stability.

"Leviathan..."

Lin Lan ignored Qi Yue's grateful look.

After letting go of Qi Yue, he looked at the tentacles in the sea around him that were like devil tentacles, and whispered the name.

When he came to Lihu County from the Iron Blood Fortress to take up his post, he had seen this thing that should only appear in the Great Trench of the Teaching Nation.

The sea monster appeared.

After letting Leviathan escape that time, he often searched the Internet for information about this sea monster when his mobile phone had internet access.

After all, there must be something wrong when things are abnormal. He had already had a premonition that this monster, which should not have appeared in the Oran Sea, was ninety-nine percent related to the Siren.

However, during this period of time, he had never heard of Leviathan appearing anywhere else, so he gradually began to regard that encounter as an accident.

At the moment, it seems that all the causes of maritime accidents are attributed to the Sirens, and Leviathan has never left the Oran Sea!

"Boom boom boom..."

The attacks of the chess pieces and the ship girls were like scraping the Leviathan and were completely ineffective.

Lin Lan, who had already seen the scene of chess pieces facing Leviathan, did not expect to rely on these chess pieces and ship girls to repel Leviathan.

He rushed directly to the edge of the yacht and shouted to the three wolf pack members and Weser who had already jumped into the water below:

"Don't hold back, attack the tentacles with all your might! Get the monster's body out of the seabed first!"

Seeing three cute little lolis riding shark ship costumes in the water making an OK gesture to him, Lin Lan turned around.

Qi Yue and Lu Yangshu, who were in a dishevel, slowly stood up at this time. They looked around with pale faces. The terrifying tentacles raging in the sea frightened them so much that they couldn't speak for a long time.

"Just now...thank you."

Seeing Lin Lan coming back, Qi Yue thanked her with a pale face.

"Don't thank me yet. Immediately control the yacht to get out of the attack range of the tentacles. We are not out of danger yet."

Faced with such a crisis, Lin Lan no longer cared to continue pretending. He swept away his previous speaking style and spoke to Qi Yue in a very concise tone, then looked at Lu Yangshu:

"Senior Lu, have your ship girls withdraw from the tentacles' attack range first. My ship girls are better at hand-to-hand combat and have stronger maneuverability. You can just have them cover the rear."

The reason why he dared to say this was that he had already observed the current battle situation when he gave orders to the wolves.

The three little lolis of Z-Drive, including Teacher Nimi, were able to perfectly avoid the sweeping and slapping of the tentacles, and were obviously able to do so with ease.

As for other chess pieces and ship girls, they do not have such mobility and reaction speed.

In just a few seconds, two chess pieces and ship girls were unable to dodge and were severely injured by Leviathan's tentacles.

"But……"

Lu Yangshu stared at his junior in a daze, obviously wanting to refuse, but was interrupted by Lin Lan:

"Don't say buts. If you don't want the ship girl to get hurt, just do as I say. Senior Qi Yue, you should do the same."

Lin Lan at this moment exuded a decisive temperament that was completely different from before, which made the two of them feel inexplicably at ease.

After looking at each other, Lu Yangshu and Qi Yue chose to believe Lin Lan, and hurried to the first floor of the yacht to perform their respective duties.

After all, both of them are port commanders who have experienced many battles with the Sirens.

In this kind of crisis situation, they can naturally keep a calmer mentality than ordinary people.

"Damn it! If the main fleet was here at this time, they could arrest the Leviathan on the spot and take him back alive to make a specimen."

After seeing the two of them go down, Lin Lan walked to the edge of the slowly turning yacht again and thought to himself.

The chess piece ship girls have begun to withdraw in an orderly manner. The three little lolis of Z-drive are attracting attacks from two or three tentacles each, but they feel no pressure at all.

Those huge, ugly dark green tentacles carried tremendous brute force with every strike.

But under the effective restraint of the silver-haired Z-destroyer leader Z1, the scheming and silent little loli Z2, and the little blue-hatted teacher Nimi, the movements of these tentacles seemed so clumsy.

You know, the wolf pack has a buff skill for team attack, and Z-Driver naturally has it as well.

Z1, the silver-haired little loli with cool and graceful movements, is the leader of all Z-drives and possesses a unique team-boosting skill: Z-series Pioneer.

As long as she is present, she can greatly improve the bombardment and mobility attributes of the surrounding Z drives.

Most of the Z-Drivers in the Iron Blood Faction originally possessed proficiency in armor-piercing bullets.

With the buff of Z1, the maneuverability and artillery damage can reach a very considerable level for a destroyer ship girl.

This resulted in the entire battlefield at sea becoming the stage for the three Z drives.

Chapter 205: Get lost! (3400 words)

The three little Z-drive lolis controlled their ships on the sea in perfect harmony with each other, drawing curves at high speed.

The sea water splashed by the attack of seven or eight tentacles could not even touch their clothes.

They can even control the shark suits and torpedo tubes to launch counterattacks against the tentacles while dodging the tentacle attacks.

Although the damage caused by the shells and torpedoes was not enough to directly blow the tentacles into pieces, it was obvious that the tentacles were shaking violently after being attacked by them.

In stark contrast to the fact that they were unharmed after being attacked by the chess pieces and ship girls, these tentacles clearly felt pain.

Seeing the three Z-Drive little lolis dodging the tentacle attacks perfectly as if they were dancing on the sea, Lin Lan did not relax at all.

Because he knew that these tentacles were only a small part of Leviathan's body.

Leviathan's true body was still lurking beneath the sea.
