Azur Lane: The Azure Life of the Tragic Admiral

At the side of the ship, the ship girls of his fleet had gathered, waiting for him to come over.

"lets go."

Yang Sikang chuckled, and then the Javelin's hull appeared next to him.

Yang Sikang's fleet left the main force again and moved quickly in a certain direction.

At the same time, the Purifier was looking at Yang Sikang's figure on the screen, wondering what he was thinking.

The observer had left after recording what he wanted, and the purifier was left behind to deal with some "troublesome matters" before the mirror sea collapsed.

However, her opponent seemed to have not arrived yet, so she seemed to be taking it easy.

"Hehe~ Where's the commander from another world~!"

The Purifier looked quite excited, but the fighting spirit in her eyes showed that her interest in Yang Sikang came more from her desire to fight him.

The way Yang Sikang sank the tester was something she had never seen before, but that adventurous fighting style attracted this high-level Siren.

But soon, she realized that her opponent had arrived.

Turn off the screen and turn around.

After waiting for a while, a figure slowly appeared under the sea, then walked out from the water step by step and stood on the sea surface.

"I don't know where you came from, but there should be a limit to how much you can do. It's not polite to do whatever you want in someone else's place!"

Main gun salvo!

However, the next second, several lasers were blocked by an invisible barrier.

The attack distance to the ship girl was only less than one meter, but the bombardment of the Purifier seemed to disappear directly.

"What a strange method, haha~"

The Purifier seemed to have anticipated this unusual situation and continued to attack without hesitation.

The opponent's defense doesn't seem to be effective all the time. However, although the two sides' states seem to be obviously different, the direction of the battle seems very strange.

Simply put...all of the Purifiers' attacks failed.

The Purifier looked at the enemy in front of him, frowning with displeasure on his face.

This girl could barely be identified as a ship girl, but most of her body was shrouded in black fog and her appearance could not be seen clearly.

Judging from the part of the ship equipment that was displayed, it should be a battleship type, but the style of her ship equipment was a type that the Purifier was completely unfamiliar with.

Not only that, those ship equipment seemed to have been painted in the past, and the reason why I said "once" was because the patterns and other things on them had long been blurred.

It was already a stretch to be able to leave just an outline, but more importantly, her ship equipment was clearly in a state of severe damage.

Half of the main gun was completely damaged, and even the barrel was twisted. The secondary gun was still intact, but there were traces of shell damage in many places. Anti-aircraft guns and the like were invisible, but when she moved to evade, she always turned to the right faster.

An opponent whose weapon was severely damaged and even whose sailing legs seemed to be damaged was able to easily dodge her attacks. Even none of the humanoid sirens arranged by the Purifier along the way could cause an effective attack on her.

This guy has rich combat experience and sharp intuition, and is always able to prepare for attacks before they arrive.

Even with an algorithm system as a combat aid, she can always take actions beyond her expectations, and often achieve good results.

What made the Purifier even more upset was this guy's attitude. He had spoken to her when she first met him, but after the failure of the first communication, he never spoke again.

However, Siren's plans and arrangements were frequently interfered with and affected by her. So far, many things that should have been completed were obstructed by her and could not be carried out.

The Purifier was very unhappy with the opponent's arrogant attitude, but the Purifier who had fought with her also knew that this opponent was not simple.

The offensive and defensive rhythm of both sides was very fast, and this area was completely handed over to the Purifiers for combat. The combat effectiveness displayed by the Purifiers without any worries was enough to stunned Yang Sikang and others.

However, even so, she still did not gain any advantage, and was even gradually falling into a disadvantage.

The opponent's main gun had not fired, but the annoying speed and flexibility coupled with the interference of the secondary guns made the Purifier feel quite annoyed.

The Purifier felt like she had punched a cotton ball, and she was very unhappy because she couldn't use her strength.

The two sides gradually shortened the distance from normal fighting to the point where close combat was even possible.

The Purifier frowned and stepped back, but just as she flew back, the opponent's only remaining main gun suddenly turned around.

"Oops!"

The Purifier quickly defended herself, but the artillery fire was even faster than her!

The bombardment hit the target the moment the defense was deployed, and the Purifier flew backwards hundreds of meters before he came to a stop. Turning around, he saw that the muzzle of one of his guns had been twisted and was almost unusable.

"It was just one shot."

The Purifier's face darkened.

Chapter 196 Welcome Back, Helena

Although the battle between the two men was fast-paced, there were very few actual collisions between them.

And in the shadows, the onlookers are not the only ones observing.

Helena, who had been missing for a long time, stood on the sea in amazement, unable to speak as she watched the fight between the Purifier and the ship girl.

The Purifier, which they had found extremely difficult to deal with, clearly showed a stronger power, but was easily dealt with by the ship girl shrouded in black fog as if it were a toy.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, it would have been hard for her to believe that such a thing was really happening.

Not far from her, stood the ship girl whom she met at the dock earlier.

The other party still didn't let her get close, but suddenly appeared and led her here to watch the battle.

According to what the other party said, this was an... exercise.

A special drill that was shown to her and that she was to record.

"Record the contents of this battle and keep it in mind, Helena."

The ship girl said to her:

"There's not much we can do. Please make sure to record this rare data and take it back with you."

The battle was gradually coming to an end. Although the Purifier was powerful, the mysterious ship girl was obviously better.

Even though the Purifiers kept complaining about how it was unfair and how it would be better if they had a better body, the direction of the battle was now clear.

The battle was over. Although the Purifier was not sunk directly, it lost almost all of its ship equipment.

The mysterious ship girl said something unknown, and then sank into the sea again. Helena also left the dangerous area under the leadership of the ship girl next to her.

On the way out, Helena couldn't help but raise her own questions:

"why me?"

"Of course, because you are the most suitable one."

The ship girl led the way and said without looking back:

"We are different from you, so there are many things that only you can explore and study on your own. But any research needs the support of data, and all we can do for those of us who cannot leave here is to provide you with the opportunity to collect data."

"SG Radar gives you stronger capabilities than others, so we chose you, and only you."

The ship girl turned around and looked at Helena, smiling slightly:

"You should go back, Helena."

Helena was a little hesitant. She saw the "border" there and roughly knew that she could get away from these inexplicable things by passing there.

She should have been happy, but she felt somewhat uneasy about leaving her other companions, especially not taking part in the battle.

But now, she has a lot of questions to ask, and there are many things she wants to clarify.

Even though I know the other party may not answer my questions directly, it is still uncomfortable if I don't say some things.

But the other party seemed to have anticipated her thoughts and shook his head:

"Knowing too much will only become a burden, go back."

Helena opened her mouth, but put away her curiosity.

When she was about to cross that border, the ship girl suddenly called her.

"Helena."

Helena stopped and turned around. The other person was looking at her with complicated emotions in his eyes.

"…Nothing, go back, he's still looking for you."

Helena hesitated for a moment but finally crossed the boundary. The sea in front of her suddenly became clear, and she seemed to hear a faint sound behind her.

She turned back subconsciously, but the boundary and the things on that side were no longer there.

Not far away, several bald eagles can be seen flying towards him quickly. On the distant sea level, a destroyer is sailing against the wind and waves. Amid the continuous artillery fire, the Siren over there is disappearing quickly.

On the SG radar, Helena already knew that it was her commander and companions.

She rushed over there, and Javelin and the others quickly came over to her direction.

At the bow of the Javelin, Yang Sikang was standing there with a smile on his face.

Helena came onto the deck and opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.

But before she could think too much, a warm hand was placed on her head, gently tidying up her hair that was messed up by the sea breeze.

"I'm glad you're okay. Don't worry too much, Helena."

"Commander, I'm sorry..."

Helena bowed her head.

The others were obviously not in good condition, and the traces of battle were still there.

Especially Wichita, London and Minneapolis, these three heavy cruisers suffered the most attacks, but their injuries were basically only treated simply.

In contrast, Helena was almost completely out of the battle, and her condition was as good as when she had just left the port.

This comparison made Helena feel a little guilty, but Yang Sikang smiled and said:

"Fighting doesn't necessarily mean fighting with Sirens. Although we are a little embarrassed, we are all together after all. Although you didn't fight on our side, you were alone there. Fighting doesn't necessarily mean there is smoke of gunpowder, and a safe result does not mean there is no risk in the process. Hold your head up, Helena, you have nothing to worry about. Thank you for your hard work."

Others also started communicating with Helena, while Yang Sikang stepped aside to leave space for them.

As he said, safety in results does not mean there are no risks in the process.

Although it is dangerous over there, after all, we are all together.

But Helena, who is alone, has to bear more psychological pressure, especially for Helena, who is already more fragile, this pressure is too great.

After finding Helena, Yang Sikang's team, which had been delayed for a long time, could finally return.

But before leaving, he turned and looked in the direction where Helena had appeared before.

Although the SG radar showed that there was nothing there, since Helena appeared there out of thin air, it was impossible that there was really nothing there.

"Master, are you worried?"

"Worried? Haha, a little bit, but I think maybe I should be a little relieved."

Yang Sikang sighed and pointed in the direction of the empty space:

"I knew they were probably there, but I didn't even go near them. Do you think they would be disappointed?"

Belfast followed his gaze and replied with a smile:

"You understand them better than I do, don't you?"

"Oh, that's true. But shouldn't the head maid give some gentle comfort at this time?"

"If the commander promises that he will not suddenly ask to take risks himself next time when he can no longer retreat from a battle, then I don't mind giving you some rewards~"

"Well, it seems I won't be able to get this reward. After all, I can't be a person who goes back on his word."

Yang Sikang smiled and shook his head, his eyes still looking in that direction, and murmured softly.

"wait for me."

Chapter 197 Riots before returning to Hong Kong

In the abnormal sea area that was gradually disappearing, the two ship girls silently watched Yang Sikang and others leave.

They did not hear what he said when he left, but they could see his familiar figure and the shape of his mouth clearly.

"He's still the same as before, that's great."
