Azur Lane: The Azure Life of the Tragic Admiral

It is not a wise move to stay here for a long time and continue to waste time and energy.

As for Helena, he could only hope that Helena was okay.

Because Helena was the most insecure ship girl on his side, he gave Helena some small props before setting off.

"I hope this helps Helena."

With a helpless sigh, he calmed himself down and refocused on the current situation.

Guanghui, who had been watching from the sidelines, frowned slightly, but his eyes turned more serious when he looked at Yang Sikang.

Being calm and decisive are the two most difficult but also the most important things for a new commander.

When one's own ship girl disappears inexplicably, from an objective point of view, any bystander can probably make the right judgment, but when the matter happens to oneself, not many people can make such a decisive and calm judgment.

He suddenly disappeared and his life or death was unknown. As a commander, could you just ignore it?

But if you just waste your time and energy on this one thing, you won't be able to take care of other things, and you may even miss opportunities that you should have.

She could see that Yang Sikang cared a lot about Helena's sudden disappearance, but considering the overall situation, he made a decisive decision.

"I have a lot of experience."

Guanghui smiled and followed silently.

The size and combat effectiveness of the Siren ships grew stronger as they approached the source of the ships, but after more than ten minutes, the reconnaissance aircraft still discovered mechanical devices similar to the previous ones.

"Blow it up, independence."

"Yes, Commander."

With the addition of independent firepower, there is no need to use disposable ship equipment, but the mechanical device was still destroyed.

But unlike before, this time Yang Sikang carefully observed the entire process of the mechanical device being blown up, and insisted on staying there for a while, only leaving after confirming that the number of sirens had decreased sharply.

No one else noticed anything wrong, but Guanghui seemed to be thinking about something.

In the cabin, Yang Sikang was using a paintbrush to depict the appearance of the mechanical device.

"Is this a coincidence?"

Chapter 176 Helena's Adventure (1)

Helena was a little overwhelmed now.

She had felt somewhat uneasy when she had followed the others into this special sea area.

Through the fog, the commander and his men disappeared, and only Independence and Sheffield were still around.

Siren ships appeared on the radar sporadically, but soon their numbers began to increase.

But no matter what, we still have the mass-produced models next to us, and Sheffield and Independent are still there.

However, something unusual happened at this time.

First, SG suddenly found a very strange target appearing around her, but she looked around and couldn't see any human figure. Then a ball of black fog suddenly appeared and enveloped her.

She seemed to hear someone saying something to her vaguely, but in her panic she didn't hear clearly, and the scene in front of her began to blur.

When he came to his senses, he found himself alone in another place. There were no Siren ships, no sound of naval guns, and no signs of Independence and Sheffield.

"What is this place..."

Helena looked at the sea beneath her feet, feeling vaguely uneasy.

The light here is very dim, and both the sky and the sea are lifeless.

It seemed like it would rain at any moment, but it didn't. The dark clouds were pressing down on her head and also on her heart.

Helena couldn't help feeling a little uneasy after realizing that she was alone now.

She subconsciously grasped the pendant hanging on her chest, which was a gift Yang Sikang gave her before she left.

"If you feel uneasy, hold this, don't worry or be afraid. I'm always here, stay calm and wait for me to come."

Holding the pendant, Helena felt more courageous.

Although she had not been in the fleet for long, the other people gave her a strong sense of security.

The same goes for the commander. It seems that there is nothing he can't do and no problem he can't solve.

He always has a calm and faint smile on his face. Although he often talks about strange topics, he has never failed in his work.

She couldn't even understand those complicated research documents, but the commander was always able to quickly find the key information and then deal with them.

Helena couldn't help but tighten her hand holding the pendant a little, and slowly began to explore forward.

Waiting where you are is one solution, but in this place where you can't see anything, it is also necessary to find a place that can provide some shelter in case of danger.

Although she was a little uneasy, at least she didn't lose her composure.

SG faithfully fed her information within the range, but the fact that there was nothing there only magnified the uneasiness in her heart unnecessarily.

After a full ten minutes, the SG finally found a piece of land.

She moved closer to that side, and then realized something was wrong.

It seemed to be a fortress on the sea.

The outer shell was as black as ink and was built very solidly. The land below the fortress seemed to be a reef, but it had been filled with materials to form land.

This fortress looks a bit like a dock. It is very large and should have a lot of space inside.

But Helena couldn't find a way to enter, as if the fortress had no entrance.

“How can there be such a building…”

Helena knew clearly that there was absolutely no such building in White Eagle.

Especially near the home port, a sea fortress of this size has little significance other than being extremely expensive.

To prop up a piece of land in the ocean alone means huge resource consumption and extremely high technical difficulty.

There is no need to say more about such a fortress.

The novel discovery not only failed to reassure Helena, but made her even more uneasy.

But Helena still decided to approach the fortress. After all, it was a place where she could rest temporarily. The situation was unclear to her, so if she had time to rest, she would rest first before continuing.

Keep yourself focused and have enough physical strength to fight, and avoid wasting too much physical strength and energy on meaningless things.

This is an extremely important part of their daily training, and now this concept is finally coming in handy.

Just as Helena approached the fortress, the calm sea suddenly became turbulent.

"How is this going?"

Helena was a little surprised, but she still accelerated towards the island where the fortress was located.

When she was about to land on the island, something unexpected happened:

The front gate of the fortress suddenly opened!

"Is this... a dock?"

Looking inside from the huge door on the front, the interior of the fortress is actually a huge dock.

There are extremely complete equipment as far as the eye can see, and the internal structure of the fortress looks very solid. The most important thing is that such an internal structure shows that this fortress is probably more indestructible than it looks from the outside.

“Is this an invitation for me to come in?”

Helena held the pendant and took a deep breath.

The sea surface is constantly rising and falling, and it seems that something is stirring in the dark shadows under the sea.

Helena hesitated for a while, but finally decided to follow her instincts and entered the dock.

After she came in, the restless ocean outside suddenly returned to its previous calm but lifeless state, and the huge door showed no sign of closing.

While feeling relieved, Helena was also somewhat curious about the fortress.

There shouldn't be such an amazing dock around the White Eagle's home port, and for them, it makes no sense that a dock that appears to be used to repair ordinary ships would be built in such a place.

But the completeness of the equipment here is astonishing, and even more amazing is the equipment itself.

It was something Helena had never seen in her home port, and it was even a little unbelievable.

"How can there be such a place..."

“Because this is not reality.”

Suddenly a voice responded to her own mumbling. Helena quickly turned around and stepped back to look in the direction of the voice, and prepared for battle vigilantly.

However, the moment she saw the other person, she was stunned.

She was a very beautiful woman, with long hair of similar color to hers, and she was wearing a black tight-fitting outfit that looked a little thin.

The other party also has ship uniforms around her body, and the way she stands calmly on the sea also proves her identity as a ship girl.

However, her ship outfit gave Helena a sense of familiarity while making her feel a little strange.

The biggest difference between the two was probably in their figures. This woman's figure was so good that it was a little exaggerated, especially a certain part that she dared not look at for too long.

However, the woman's current condition does not seem to be very good. Her ship suit was severely damaged in many places, and most of the exposed skin was severely burned. There were scars all over her body. It was incredible that she could stand there so calmly.

"I'm sorry to meet you under these circumstances, but this is the best opportunity I can find."

The woman smiled and said to Helena, then slowly approached, but stopped about ten meters away.

"I'm sorry, Miss Helena. Please don't come near me, or something might affect you."

"Okay, okay. Um, who are you? And where is this place?"

"Yeah, that's a normal question. But I'm a little surprised that you didn't ask me directly how to leave here."

Helena looked at the woman's injuries and shook her head:

"I think maybe you need help more than I do..."

"Help? Haha, don't worry about my injuries. They won't kill me. But... Miss Helena, can you do me a small favor?"

Chapter 177 Helena's Adventure (2)

"help?"

Helena looked at the lady in front of her with some worry. Her injuries looked very serious. If they were not treated, there would definitely be big problems.

Although she was not familiar with the ship's equipment, it was impossible for it to be damaged to such an extent without any impact on her.

Perhaps he saw her hesitation, but the other party smiled and said:

"Don't worry about my injuries. These injuries...can't be treated anymore. Of course, they won't get any worse, hehe."

The other party said it lightly, but when Helena heard it, she was shocked.

However, the other party seemed to have no problem with this matter and said casually:

"Don't worry about me so much. You have more important things to do right now, Helena."

Helena suddenly came to her senses and realized her current situation.

When she thought about where the others were, she couldn't help but feel worried again.

But looking at the woman in front of her, her mood quickly calmed down for some reason.

"How can I help you?"

The other person smiled and raised his hand to point behind Helena.

"There are some documents in the monitoring room behind you inside this dock. Could you please help me get one of them?"

"Would you like to get a document? Okay, where do I go up from here?"

"There is a path on the left that leads up. There is an access card in the card box next to the entrance. Use that to open the door inside."

Helena nodded and agreed, then turned around and went to the dock next to her.

As she watched Helena walk up, the smile on the woman's face faded slightly, and her eyes became more gentle.

Helena took the access card from the card box the other party mentioned and simply opened the door to the passage.

Going up the stairs, the lighting here is bright but not glaring; all light sources are hidden, leaving only refracted light.

The passage is arranged very cleverly, not appearing crowded but not wasting too much space. The slope is gentle and moderate, and the ground seems to have been treated so that it will not slip and makes footsteps very quiet.
