As long as the commander is here, this Son of God will no longer be troubled by those responsibilities.

However, when recalling this, Lin Lan remembered a problem that has been bothering him since the original game plot.

That is, he remembered that the plot of that event mentioned that the reason why Yunxian, as the heart of Hai Ruo, was able to cut off her connection with Hai Ruo and become a real ship girl was because she wanted to meet him as the commander again.

But the game plot before that event did not mention at all when he had met Yunxian.

All I can say is that the plot of The Riddler of Yellow Chicken is worthy of its name, and it still adheres to the principle of keeping people incomprehensible.

"Commander, the barrier set up by the great sage is ahead. Wait a moment. I will

The entrance is open."

At this time, Musashi's words interrupted Lin Lan's memories.

Only then did Lin Lan realize that during the brief time when he was distracted by his memories, he and Musashi had passed through the woods and arrived at a rugged path leading into the mountain.

After being put down from the arms of Musashi who had stopped walking, he stretched his body which was a little sore due to the strong wind pressure, while looking at the environment in front of the two of them.

Before his eyes was a naturally formed mountain on an island.

Looking up from the foot of the mountain, this natural mountain with its peak even piercing through the clouds is far more majestic than the artificial hills on the Xinyang artificial island.

He looked towards the entrance of the winding mountain road. In addition to a few clusters of bushes blooming with white flowers, there was a white rock more than three meters high on each side of the road.

A red hemp rope with paper talismans hanging on it is wrapped around the two huge rocks and connected together, as if to declare that this road up the mountain is off-limits to unauthorized persons.

Musashi walked slowly to the red rope in front of the mountain road and closed his eyes.

Lin Lan watched as several white dots of light emerged from the paper talisman on the hemp rope and gradually detached, condensing into a mysterious octagonal formation in front of Musashi.

As Musashi raised his hands, the area around the octagonal formation became like waves, with layers of white light silently spreading out in the air, as if a stone had been dropped into the water.

The secret technique of the Sakura Empire.

Seeing this spectacular scene, Lin Lan instantly remembered this word.

This is not a sanctuary barrier created by mirror technology, but a genuine, mysterious barrier created by the secret technique of the Sakura Empire.

Musashi didn't let him wait too long, and soon, everything returned to nothingness.

"Hoo, Commander, the entrance to the barrier has been opened, but there are some things that happened today that I think I need to discuss with the Commander first."

The purple-haired fox lady turned around, stretched out her hand to Lin Lan and said.

Lin Lan could probably guess that Musashi wanted to discuss with him what happened with the Demon King's army today, so he took Musashi's warm hand, and the two walked side by side along the mountain road into the mountain.

The fresh and cool mountain breeze blew towards them, and the bright stars and the bright moon in the sky provided sufficient lighting for both of them.

"This should be the interior of Snow Sakura Island, but I didn't see your temporary port or other people except for the pier on the seashore. Could it be that the temporary port is on the mountain?"

Lin Lan took the lead in opening the topic, but Musashi just smiled softly and answered for him:

"Haha, the temporary port area can't be chosen on the mountain. In order to save time, I took you through the shortcut in the dense forest. The temporary port area where everyone usually lives is next to the river on the island."

Okay, Lin Lan thought about it and it made sense.

The entire mountain is likely to be blocked by the barrier just now. If I have to do the same every time I go down the mountain, it would be too cumbersome.

Moreover, setting up the temporary port on the mountain will have a serious impact on the ship girls' transportation of supplies and offensive operations.

"We don't need to go to the top of the mountain. The sacred tree was planted by the great sage at the shrine on the mountainside. We'll be there soon."

Musashi's voice sounded again. The purple-haired fox lady first explained the location of the destination to him, and then suddenly changed the topic.

Turning, he asked:

"But Commander, do you...remember what was originally suppressed in the Imperial Divine Tree barrier?"

This battleship girl with a prominent status in the Sakura Empire camp took Lin Lan's hand, turned her head, and looked at Lin Lan meaningfully with her golden eyes that were shining dimly in the night.

Her tone was different from her usual calm and composed tone, and was slightly serious.

Lin Lan understood that Musashi was getting straight to the point.

So he nodded and gave the answer directly:

"Invisible Breath."

After he said the name, he felt that the hand he was holding of Musashi exerted a little force for a moment.

However, Musashi was not surprised that he knew the answer. He stared at Lin Lan's face and continued with some emotion:

"Exactly. Most people in the Sakura Empire, including Akagi, have never known about the connection between Xi and Hai Ruo."

"Since you do know what happened in the Great Divine Tree Sanctuary at that time...it will be easy to explain what happened today."

Musashi already knew that Lin Lan had once been in a world called Blue Star, and had come into contact and communicated with them through the port area established in the game.

But for them, this is not the point.

After all, the commander's sincerity towards them and their love for the commander cannot be faked.

After expressing his feelings, Musashi's tone returned to seriousness:

"In fact, we in the Sakura Empire have already applied the imitation technology of Hai Ruo's nature to our ship equipment, especially my sister Shinano, as well as Hakuryu, Shimanto and their new scientific research ship equipment."

When Musashi said this, he paused for a moment and said to Lin Lan seriously:

"Today, the monsters from the Demon King's army that Siren showed us for experiments had black substances on them that looked different from the breath of Xi, but I can be sure that they are of the same origin."

"If our companions from other camps were to watch the Demon King's army's materials from afar, they would inevitably be negatively affected to a certain extent, both mentally and physically."

"The reason why other people didn't feel any discomfort today is because all of our Sakura Empire's ships are equipped with the new generation of equipment obtained from Hai Ruo to resist the negative effects of the invisible breath."

After hearing what Musashi said, Lin Lan's pace had unconsciously slowed down.

He really didn't know before that the ship uniforms of the Sakura Empire's ship girls actually had this unique effect.

But he suddenly remembered the next second that in the game's Fool's Balance event, the ship girls of each camp were indeed affected by the false god with the aura of a mysterious enemy and could not move.

Among the ship girls of various camps present, including the meta ship girls of Embers, the only one who was not affected except him as the commander was Shinano of the Sakura Empire camp.

Chapter 629 Is it really just a coincidence?

Feeling that Lin Lan was slowing down, Musashi also slowed down his pace, still holding his hand and walking side by side with him on the mountain road.

"At the port, we have shared this technology with various factions. Each faction has applied it to research ships and companions who have obtained Type II ship equipment, and has achieved success."

"It's just that before it was officially popularized, you suddenly disappeared, and all the camps left the port area to search for you."

Musashi's words made Lin Lan realize how dangerous it was for them to observe those black wriggling substances up close today.

He should have understood that if those Demon King's troops were related to the mysterious enemy X, they should all have similar negative aura attributes against ship girls.

Fortunately, the ship uniforms of the Sakura Empire's shipgirls have all been obtained...

and many more.

Lin Lan suddenly opened his eyes wide, because he suddenly realized that if it was really as Musashi said, then today's purifiers met with them...

Is it really just a coincidence?

You know, the fact that he, as a commander, could remain unaffected by X's influence was no secret to the Siren.

At the Sardinia Expo in the game's plot, after he led the ship girls from various camps to fight against the false gods, it was not difficult for Siren to collect relevant data.

But combined with what Musashi said, his Sakura Empire shipgirls have now gained this X-effect resistance...

Lin Lan thought about this, looked at Musashi, and asked uncertainly:

"Musashi, if it is true as you said, could it be that the Purifiers knew this and deliberately staged a show on our way today? They brought us into the fortress in order to hand over the 'Demon King' to us?"

Musashi shook the purple fox ears on his head and nodded to him:

"It's very likely. Otherwise, it would be hard to explain why the Purifiers would help us so much for no reason during our expedition."

"Although the Demon King is still sleeping in the Siren's device, Commander, I suggest that Akashi take him to the sacred tree barrier on the mountain. It would be safer to wake him up after taking all precautions."

Lin Lan recalled the experiences he had today with the Sakura Empire's ship girls, and the Purifiers and Clearers.

He was unwilling to believe that these two high-level Sirens were just acting with them in order to use them.

But as Musashi said, everything that happened today was indeed too much of a coincidence.

No matter what, Musashi's advice is very necessary for the Demon King who is contaminated by X, and they must deal with the Demon King with utmost care.

"Just do as you say, Musashi. I'll have Akashi send the Demon King here tomorrow."

Lin Lan finally sighed and accepted Musashi's proposal.

The heavy Sakura barrier can seal even the invisible breath of powerful monsters in Hai Ruo for so long. Considering the average combat power of the Demon King's army, it will definitely be no problem to lock up a Demon King.

If the Demon King really lost control after waking up, he would definitely order him to be killed directly to prevent him from escaping to the Nine Islands of Liaozhou and harming innocent people.

As for what exactly is the purpose of the Siren...

He originally thought that the two senior Sirens from the experimental agency helped him in order to trick the arbitration agency.

Now that I think about it, it is very likely that the experimental agency was eyeing the Hai Ruo technology of the Sakura Empire, which is why it is so broad-based.

Help them well.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Lan chose to keep this matter to himself for the time being.

After all, Siren also regards the mysterious enemy X as the biggest enemy, and even gives him the authority to control the executors. He should not continue to cause trouble for them in Liaozhou.

During the time they were discussing, they had already walked along the rugged mountain road to the middle of the mountain.

Lin Lan also vaguely heard a rumbling sound coming from the distant mountain stream.

"Musashi, is there a waterfall on this mountain?"

He looked around, but apart from the delicate white-leaved trees and shrubs on the mountain, he could not see the source of the sound.

"That's right. There is a huge waterfall on the other side of the mountain. It is melted by the snow on the top of the mountain. The river next to our temporary port area comes from there."

After Musashi finished speaking, he added:

"In addition to the snow on the top of the mountain, there is also a natural hot spring. Shiranui originally planned to develop it, but because of the location of the sacred tree, he had to give up."

When Lin Lan heard that Musashi had already changed the topic to introducing Snow Sakura Island, he realized that Musashi had finished talking about the important matter he wanted to tell him.

At this time, as the two turned a corner along the mountain road, Lin Lan saw a courtyard with very Japanese cherry blossom characteristics appearing on the flat area on the mountainside in front.

And within the courtyard wall, there is a large tree with almost no leaves on its branches, unlike the white-leafed trees on the mountain.

There is no doubt that this should be their destination, the Sacred Tree.

However, because the bright moon in the night sky was obscured by a cloud, Lin Lan was still unable to see the detailed layout of the courtyard.

Thinking about meeting Amagi soon, Lin Lan couldn't help but ask Musashi:

"I remember that Amagi's health should have recovered after joining Minato. Why did it get worse after I left?"

Lin Lan has always felt very strange about this matter.

Logically speaking, this top strategist of Sakura Empire has been in his port area for several years and has never had any health problems.

Although he thought it was just a game at that time, the voice of Tiancheng gradually recovering with each costume change could not be faked.

Musashi was not surprised that he would ask this question, and he explained to him softly as they walked towards the shrine and the sacred tree:

"The deterioration of Amagi's body should have little to do with his ship's suit. We speculate that it is most likely related to his mind."

"Before coming to the port, we used every possible means, but we couldn't make Tiancheng's health improve. Even with the technology brought by Hai Ruo, it only slowed down the deterioration of Tiancheng's health."

"It was not until she met you in the harbor that her health finally improved and she gradually became like an ordinary person."

Well, after hearing this, Lin Lan understood why Musashi judged that Amagi’s physical deterioration was related to his mind.

Or it’s because of the awakening of the mind.

In the game, after the ship girls meet him, their experience level will increase as they attack under his command.

After reaching the maximum level, you will gain mental awakening power beyond the limit through the Mind Unit and Mind Unit II.

It seems that it is because of the power of Tiancheng's awakened mind that his originally poor body has gradually recovered.

No wonder both Musashi and Akagi believed that as long as he returned to Amagi, Amagi's health would recover.

But just when Lin Lan understood the whole story, Musashi seemed to remember something from the past, looked at Lin Lan and said:

"Commander, there is something we haven't told you yet."

"After you disappeared from the port, the reason why our Sakura Empire was able to cross the ocean, experience a long journey, and finally arrive at this archipelago country called Liaozhou was because of Amagi's guidance."
