Azur Lane: I Traveled Through Graduation Port

Only when facing the commander will Yunxian's ethereal temperament dissipate, revealing her gentle side as a ship girl.

So after hearing Yunxian's words, Musashi turned around, fixed his eyes on the great sage in front of him, and asked in a serious tone:

"Yunxian, do you know what a hero is, why the commander became a hero, and why those villains are searching for the hero's traces?"

"..."

Although Yunxian remained calm after hearing Musashi's words, as if he was not surprised.

But the fluorescent blue butterfly that was flapping its wings at her fingertips slowly closed its wings and stopped moving.

Silence, long silence.

In the entire space, except for the light spots of power of faith surrounding the huge sacred tree, everything seemed to be frozen.

Musashi's golden eyes stared at Yunxian, silently illustrating her strong determination to get answers.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Finally, Yunxian waved her hand and let the blue butterfly on her fingertips fly away.

The great sage of the Sakura Empire slowly turned around, met Musashi's gaze, and said calmly:

"Musashi, many things about the commander cannot be easily explained."

"The only thing I can tell you is that the commander... no matter what he becomes, a hero or anything else, he is the one we love the most."

Yunxian's voice was very calm, but beneath the calmness, she revealed that there was no doubt about what she said.

The two looked at each other. Musashi seemed dissatisfied with Yunxian's answer and spoke again:

"In order to capture the commander, the Arbitration Agency's Steliancus and Tempalans isolated the entire Orlan United States and went to war with the White Eagle camp."

"At that time, Steljancus said to the commander: He must not forget his past, and he must not forget his mission."

"Whether it's the Purifiers or the Clearers of the experimental agency, they have no hostility towards the commander. The Purifiers even gave the commander the authority to control the Siren Fleet."

"I saw with my own eyes that the Purifier easily transferred the authority

It was handed over to the commander, as if... it was the commander's original authority."

"In our memory, since the commander established the port, even though we are not in the same world, we have never had such a close relationship with the Sirens."

Musashi recalled the intelligence she had obtained from the White Eagle Faction when she participated in the White Eagle Faction's post-war review at the New Ocean Artificial Island, as well as what she had heard and heard at the Siren Fortress.

Her tone became more and more serious, and the expression on her face became more and more worried.

After saying all this, the battleship fox lady finally expressed her most worrying question:

"As the Heart of Hai Ruo, you have seen the Commander in countless possible worlds. What exactly happened to the Commander?"

After hearing what Musashi said, Yunxian's originally calm face finally showed some fluctuations.

"As expected of Lord Musashi, you are able to deduce all this through these clues and come to me for answers."

Yunxian could tell from the look in Musashi's eyes that if she didn't tell Musashi what she knew today, Musashi would probably never leave.

So she sighed, and finally seemed to have made a decision in her heart, and said to Musashi:

"Master Musashi, I think you also know that before I obtained the concept of Yunxian, I always existed as Hai Ruo's will."

"And I have also explained to you where Hai Ruo came from and what he is. I wonder if you still remember?"

Although Musashi didn't understand why Yunxian suddenly brought up the past, he answered without hesitation:

"The bright stars fell, darkness descended from the shadows, and the stars burned themselves to banish the darkness."

"One of those stars is Hai Ruo, the great sage who once fought with his own shadow, the Invisible Breath, for several reincarnations and possibilities."

Hearing Musashi's answer, Yunxian nodded slightly, then sighed and said:

"Even after so long, Master Musashi still remembers it so clearly..."

"I am different from you. I was not awakened from the mind cube by the commander. Instead, I found the commander with the help of the connection between the mind cube and my ship suit."

After saying this, Yunxian moved his gaze away from Musashi, raised his head, and looked at the huge sacred tree in front of the two of them.

"Master Musashi, you are right. I have seen the Commander in many possible ways."

"It is precisely because of this belief that I want to stay with the commander forever that I have the determination to cut off my own shadow in the battle with the invisible breath that is about to break free from the seal."

"But Lord Musashi, have you ever thought about why I was able to merge so easily with the ship equipment you gave me, becoming an existence like you, and existing in the world as a 'ship'?"

Musashi had already guessed this, and when asked by Yunxian, she slowly gave her answer:

"The Hai Ruo energy that fell from the starry sky and the energy in the Mind Cube... are also from the same source."

Yunxian looked at Musashi with some surprise, but she soon realized that this was not a difficult conclusion to analyze.

As Musashi, who originally provided her with ship equipment, he probably had already made speculations.

"Since Lord Musashi has already guessed it, I will not keep you in suspense any longer."

"Our commander..."

At this point, Yunxian looked at Musashi with a complicated expression, and slowly said a possibility that even she herself was unwilling to believe:

"His existence is likely to come from the same origin as these energies. He was not simply separated from us by a world."

"Well, to use a more appropriate term I learned from the White Eagle camp, maybe he is from a higher dimension than us."

After Yunxian finished speaking, he looked at the somewhat dazed Musashi and smiled softly:

"Of course, all of this is just my guess, but now that the commander has returned, he is still the same person, and he can accompany us as before. This is enough, isn't it?"

Chapter 634 Conversation on the Way Down the Mountain

The road down the mountain with Nagato and others was not the rugged path that Lin Lan and Musashi took when they came, but another spacious road.

Lin Lan was not surprised by this. The flat area where the shrine was located seemed like a transit area in the mountains. He also saw that there was a road behind the shrine that continued to lead up the mountain.

If you continue climbing along that path, you should be able to reach the snow-covered summit of Mt. Irukumo and the natural hot spring on the top of the mountain.

After walking for a while, the sound of flowing water became more obvious than before, and Lin Lan also clearly felt that there was more and more humid water vapor in the air.

It seemed that he would soon be able to see the waterfall flowing down from the Snow Sakura Island mountain.

"Commander, I don't know if it's my illusion, but I always feel that you are different now than before."

Nagato walked beside Lin Lan, who was supporting Amagi. The introverted Shigeo Sakura looked up at Lin Lan carefully and asked doubtfully:

"In the past, you always had a faint energy that kept me from getting close to you."

Tiancheng also nodded. She was now being supported by Lin Lan. She could clearly feel the body temperature coming from Lin Lan and actually touch Lin Lan's body.

If it were in the past, unless they were in the commander's office in the port area, they would feel that Lin Lan had a vague feeling in other places.

Lin Lan then remembered that before he explained to Nagato and the others, he had met them through the game.

So he repeated the same explanation he had given to the Iron Blood and White Eagle ship girls to the four Sakura Empire ship girls.

"That is to say, the commander has truly come to us now."

After Mikasa heard Lin Lan's words, she accepted it very easily, and then laughed jokingly:

"Does this mean that we can do more intimate things with you?"

Originally, Mikasa just asked this question casually, but after hearing this, the little fox Nagato suddenly blushed on his little face and his eyes widened.

"Senior, what are you saying?!"

"Something more intimate..."

Nagato's trembling words attracted everyone's attention. Mikasa was stunned at first, then realized why Nagato was like this.

So this dashing senior from the Sakura Empire looked at Nagato with a bright smile and said:

"I mean things like being able to eat, play, and chat with the Commander. What do you understand by that, Nagato?"

“Ah? Ah… I, I…”

The little fox-eared loli widened her eyes, and then she realized that she had misunderstood Mikasa's words.

Nagato's pink face, which was already covered with a layer of blush, became even redder because of shame.

Seeing such a lovely Son of God, Lin Lan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

But Amagi showed a thoughtful expression, and the fox tail that was hanging down behind him quietly waved.

Later, on his way down the mountain, Lin Lan shared some interesting things that happened to him in the Iron Blood and White Eagle camps with the four Sakura Empire ship girls.

After learning that he had obtained the commander's uniform at the White Eagle Star Sea Base, senior Mikasa also expressed her feelings, saying that the port area is now

These technologies have made it impossible for her to keep up with the trend.

Well, after hearing Mikasa's words, Lin Lan remembered that it seemed that this heroic senior still didn't fully understand how to operate smartphones and computers.

However, when they heard that Akagi and other Sakura Empire's main aircraft carrier girls had begun to learn elemental skills, they all became very interested.

"If we can really master this kind of power, we can also help the master in the face of the pollution of the demon army that the master mentioned, so as not to be helpless."

Tiancheng put forward her views very pertinently, and fully agreed with Lin Lan's idea of ​​asking Feilong to make elemental skills into teaching materials and popularize them in the Sakura Empire camp.

Nagato and Mikasa had no objection to this technology promotion which was beneficial to Sakura Empire with no disadvantages.

After getting their approval, the matter was completely settled.

However, Lin Lan suddenly remembered that Akagi seemed to have set off for Oran without telling Nagato and Mikasa.

So he thought about it for a moment and took the initiative to mention this matter to Nagato.

He hoped that Nagato would not punish them because Akagi and the others helped him defeat the Arbitration Agency after they arrived in Oran, and that their most fundamental goal was to help Amagi recover.

"Commander, you worry too much."

After hearing Lin Lan's words, the little fox-eared loli didn't seem to take it to heart, but smiled and said to him:

"I already knew their intentions. My other companions have explained the reasons to me."

"Besides, if they hadn't set off in advance, Shinano wouldn't have been able to rush to support you in time after receiving Frederick's dream contact."

After Nagato finished speaking, Mikasa also laughed and took over Nagato's words:

"Yes, although what Akagi did was wrong, their intentions were good. And as the commander said, they acted as a surprise force, dealt a heavy blow to the arbitration agency, and successfully brought you back."

“So we don’t want to punish them.”

But when Mikasa got to this point, she changed the subject:

"But no matter what, they were still wrong for taking action without telling Nagato, the flagship."

"So Commander, if you don't mind, let me handle this matter. I will know my limits."

After hearing Mikasa say this, Lin Lan originally wanted to ask Mikasa how she would deal with this matter.

But Tiancheng smiled gently beside his ear and said:

"Don't worry, my lord. The senior will not make things difficult for Akagi and Kaga. I asked Lord Musashi to accompany them because I knew they would do such a thing. So everything is actually in our plan."

Well, since even Amagi said so, and considering Mikasa's fair and open-minded character, it is indeed the best choice to let Mikasa handle this matter.

So Lin Lan was relieved and nodded to agree to let Mikasa be in charge of this matter.

At this time, they also followed the road down the mountain and came to a turbulent river that reflected silver waves under the moonlight.

The rumbling sound made Lin Lan look back.

Sure enough, in the upper reaches of the river behind them, a magnificent Milky Way seemed to fall from the sky not far away from them.

The melted water from the top of the mountain hit the protruding rocks in the pool where the river starts, and the loud noise was emitted from there.

These waters formed a river in this pool, flowing along the riverbed to the increasingly flat and low-lying areas of the island until they entered the ocean.

Lin Lan looked downstream along the river, and sure enough, a large open area had been cleared out in the dense white forest where the river passed.

With the help of the conspicuous orange and white lights, he could see many buildings in the traditional style of the Sakura Empire located in that area.

I guess that was the temporary port area built by the Sakura Empire’s ship girls.

Chapter 635 I'm Back (3000 words)

However, this place is still some distance away from the entrance to the barrier leading into the mountain.

Therefore, while everyone was walking along the river towards the exit, Lin Lan also told Nagato and the others that he and Akashi had obtained oil extraction technology from the Oran United States Institute of Technology.
