Azur Lane: The Azure Life of the Tragic Admiral

"This is not a Purifier! This is an enemy we have never seen before. Be careful!!"

He also has long white hair and golden pupils, but unlike the Purifier, this one has a temperament that gives off a feeling of contempt for everyone. His eyes are cold, but there is a faint smile on the corners of his mouth.

That look was more like a scrutiny of the inferior by the superior than of the opponent.

Unlike the Purifiers, her legs are also covered with metallic armor. On both sides of her body are things that look like torpedo launchers. The black muzzles are surrounded by golden lines similar to those of the Purifiers.

There is no doubt that this is a high-level Siren, but she is not just a Purifier.

There was no communication between the two sides. After appearing, the Siren launched an attack again without any hesitation.

Although Zhenhai and others had already responded, the enemy's attack still easily sank several mass-produced warships.

Not only was their counterattack easily avoided by the other side, the Siren even lowered its height directly to the sea level and rushed towards them almost close to the sea surface.

The enemy's firepower was overwhelming, and even with a defense, there was almost no way to completely block it.

In just a few rounds, the Donghuang fleet had suffered heavy losses, and the defense of the command ship that was attacked first had now been completely broken.

"Damn, what kind of firepower is this?!"

Cleveland roared and vented her fire, but her attacks seemed to be just a tickle to the enemy in front of her.

The opponent easily avoided most of the attacks, and the remaining secondary guns were unable to cause any damage to it.

She just rushed towards Cleveland, holding out her hand with a sneer.

"Ha, don't underestimate me!"

boom!

With a dull bang, Cleveland flew back a long distance, fell on the sea and almost sank, then climbed up with the help of his ship equipment.

She was in a rather miserable state, but she had successfully repelled the Siren once.

The other party looked at his overheated right hand and laughed:

"With this power, it seems you have some interesting techniques, not completely useless?"

"Spoken?!"

Zhenhai widened her eyes. Facing such an opponent, she didn't dare to be careless and keep her ship in the deployed state.

But the effect of the seaplane was really disappointing, and Cleveland, who had the strongest firepower here, was helpless against it.

Although she didn't know how the attack just now was accomplished, she was even more surprised that the Siren spoke now.

In contrast, Cleveland was a little surprised for a moment, but quickly reacted.

"You will pay the price for underestimating us. I don't know who you are, but take it! The only way forward is to move forward!"

The artillery fire was raging, and for the first time, this high-level Siren was repelled and blocked.

As if inspired by Cleveland, the attacks of the other ship girls also became fierce.

The Siren distanced herself again and returned to the sky, but the smile on her face did not disappear, and that feeling of ease was still annoying.

"I am the tester, the one who will defeat and 'destroy' you."

Experimental Agency - Tester (Battleship)

As the tester finished speaking, the light at the muzzle shone again.

The powerful bombardment dealt another severe blow to the already poor fleet, but before they could catch their breath, the testers immediately launched a new round of bombardment.

"So fast! What is this!"

The enemy's guns were pointed directly at the damaged command ship. Ninghai and Pinghai, who were aware of the enemy's target, were already rushing over there, and Zhenhai also released all the seaplanes in one breath.

There was no time to worry about what might happen next. All they had to do now was to interrupt this round of bombardment at all costs.

"Give me, get out of here!"

Cleveland, with a ferocious expression, rushed out at an unexpected speed and pointed the muzzle of his gun directly at the muzzle of Siren, who claimed to be a tester.

With a loud bang, one of Cleveland's main guns exploded directly. At the same time, an attack was launched and hit the tester in mid-air.

Several laser beams almost brushed past the command ship, causing one third of the armor to evaporate instantly and a large amount of mass on the side to be cut off in one go, destroying the balance of the ship and causing water to quickly fill the wound.

Several unlucky commanders were directly caught up in it, either being affected by the bombardment or falling into the sea. In this situation, there was obviously no possibility of survival.

Emergency rescue began immediately. At the same time, the ship girls of the Donghuang fleet also attacked frantically and recklessly, trying to force the testers back again.

The tester of the previous round of artillery bombardment directly proved one thing with practical actions: she has the ability to kill the commander accompanying Donghuang in one fell swoop!

"Cleveland, how are you?!"

Zhenhai asked anxiously. Cleveland climbed up from the sea, looked at his damaged main gun, gritted his teeth and pulled his shawl up to cover the corners of his mouth.

"I'm fine, I can still fight!"

Chapter 187 It's not time for you to leave yet, Miss Sea Knight

A gun muzzle was damaged, which was no small matter for Cleveland.

But compared to the tester in front of me, there is no time to worry about this problem.

Zhenhai also discovered the problem, but had no solution.

Their current fighting power is totally insufficient compared to their opponents, and they can only hold on even if they are injured.

There is no energy left to worry about what happens next. If you don’t deal with the danger in front of you, there will be no future.

However, the strength of the testers was overwhelming for them.

Mass-produced warships were disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye. Some were sunk, but more of them were directly destroyed by devastating blows.

Completely different from the fighting style displayed by the previous Purifiers, this tester seemed to have no intention of fighting them on an equal footing.

The size of Donghuang's fleet has shrunk to only the core part, but because the team size has been rapidly reduced, the part that needs to be defended has also become smaller, and for a while it can still maintain the current fleet size.

Many of the commanders who came with the team had been killed, and even several of the ship girls were seriously injured and had to be sent back to the ship.

Seeing the situation getting worse and worse, even Cleveland was hit hard after using up all its disposable defensive props because of repeated forceful resistance to attacks.

Her fighting ability is stronger than others, but because of this, she suffers the most attacks from testers.

She could barely dodge when she was attacked, but she would lend a helping hand when others couldn't dodge, so she could only take it head-on.

Yixian, Pinghai and Ninghai were the most seriously injured, but the three of them still insisted on maintaining the shaky direction.

Zhenhai’s carrier-based aircraft have been almost completely used up, and now it has become difficult to even prevent reconnaissance aircraft from being shot down.

"Damn it, I'm done for now."

Cleveland's expression was a little ferocious, and his shawl had already been dyed black.

The ship's equipment became tattered, with only one of the main guns barely able to fire, all the secondary guns were destroyed, but the anti-aircraft guns could still be used.

The disposable weapons they carried had been completely used up. Apart from a few disposable ship equipment that caused some trouble to the testers, other items were almost unable to break through the exaggerated armor.

The huge gap in combat power, the hopeless defense and flexibility, whether it is counterattack or escape, all options have been eliminated.

There is still no sign of reinforcements, and it looks like there is no hope if this continues.

It is already clear how long they can hold out. What makes Cleveland feel regretful is perhaps that what he promised before has not yet been completed.

"But there's nothing we can do if we die in battle."

Cleveland pulled his cape back as he pleased and laughed.

When the matter came to light, she felt relieved.

There is nothing to be afraid of.

"At least the ending should be a little more gorgeous!"

Cleveland was about to charge at the tester, and at this moment.

The loud bang was accompanied by the sound of the main guns firing, followed by carrier-based aircraft flying overhead.

Without the need for the damaged radar to detect, Cleveland could already see the distinctive command ship that had been modified.

The command ship took the lead and rushed to the front of the fleet. A layer of dazzling shield unfolded from there to block the artillery fire for those in the rear.

The familiar ship girl was constantly unleashing firepower in the rear, using her numerical advantage to force back the tester's attack unreasonably.

The tester showed a surprised expression, but the voice had already sounded on Cleveland's communication channel.

"The ending will come later. It's not time for you to leave yet, great lady of the sea knight~"

Hearing that voice without any tension, Cleveland relaxed at once. Sheffield supported her from behind, and the command ship had completed its mission and was overtaken by the ship girls who had caught up.

When they arrived at the command ship, Yang Sikang appeared on the bridge.

"I told you not to use those embarrassing nicknames, you guy."

After relaxing, he seemed to lose all his strength all of a sudden. Cleveland was taken into the cabin by Sheffield, where at least there was a temporary bed, which made it somewhat more comfortable to rest.

In the command room of the bridge, there was no smile on Yang Sikang's face.

Although he sounded relaxed just now, he actually didn't have any confidence at all.

The moment he saw this enemy, Yang Sikang knew that this matter would probably be extremely difficult to end.

Belongs to the experimental agency, tester.

This Siren is somewhat different from the Purifier and Observer. Although she also has independent consciousness and intelligence and can communicate, she is closer to the mass-produced type.

As far as he knew, there were two types of testers in the game, one was a battleship type and the other was an aircraft carrier.

And the tester is more murderous, or in other words, her duties are somewhat different from those of the purifier.

Simply put, the tester's style of work can be summed up in four words: survival of the fittest.

Just as the name suggests, what she does is to give "trials" and then select those ship girls who can pass the "trials".

But the situation in this world is special, and Yang Sikang doesn't know whether the ship girls in this world have the so-called "memes" that the Siren expects.

But considering that there have been almost no high-level Sirens in this world in the past, it might be better to not consider the possibility at all.

The tester, her test will really beat him to death.

He knew the scale of the Donghuang Fleet's visit, but now only a small part of it was left.

There are a lot of wreckage underwater around, and there is no need to ask where those disappeared ships have gone.

"Ms. Zhenhai, please have the remaining ships on your side move closer to my command ship. Please also mark the ships that need emergency repairs. We can provide some temporary maintenance."

Yang Sikang directly connected to the communication with Zhenhai, and the other party soon responded:

"The marking has been completed. Our injured are moving towards you. As for the rest of us, we can still continue to fight. Please don't..."

"Stand back, you're in the way."

Yang Sikang said without emotion, his tone was very firm:

"Forcing yourself to join the battle when you already have little energy and ammunition will only interfere with others and cause unnecessary trouble. Now retreat, heal, and rest. There is no other option. I am not negotiating with you."

Yang Sikang’s strength made Zhenhai frown again. This man seemed like a different person when fighting, which puzzled her for a long time.

However, she still did as Yang Sikang said, because she soon discovered that Yang Sikang seemed to have a unique set of tactics to deal with the testers.

Chapter 188 Conflict of Opinions

How to break the trap set by Siren is the most important issue for Yang Sikang.

He can bring all the people on his side out of that area, but that doesn't mean he can bring all the people in every area out.

The situation within each area is unclear, and it cannot be confirmed that the structure and rules are the same.

It is not a good idea to rush in rashly, and waiting here is tantamount to waiting for death.

From the moment he entered this sea area, his mind was extremely focused and his thinking was exceptionally quick.

There must be some reason for the abnormal situation here. Convinced of this, Yang Sikang decided to start from this aspect to try to solve the problem.

The spires that formed and separated the areas needed to be studied, and if they could be broken into from the outside, they would have room to operate.

After spending several hours, Yang Sikang successfully analyzed some of the things.

"There is currently no way to bring everyone else out directly, but we can go in from the outside. According to my speculation, if we go in, we shouldn't be too far away from the people inside. What do you think?"

Yang Sikang asked with a smile, and the others gave a unified answer without thinking:
