The Naval Base of the Unnamed Ship Girls

Some were prepared with the help of outsiders, while others were prepared in advance.

Inside Garrison Command No. 233, General Xia Yuantang tightened his collar and straightened his cloak.

His wife and secretary, Helena, asked hesitantly, "What about Charlotte...?"

"At least it's safer than here..." General Xia Yuantang said, glancing out the window.

Although night had fallen, Xia Yuantang, as a general-level admiral, could still see the danger hidden in the darkness.

In Naval Base 666, thousands of kilometers away from Naval Base 233, thousands of elite deep-sea ship girls were bound like salted fish in a haphazard manner, lying haphazardly on the beach that had been scorched into glass.

The bonfire that Ayton had casually set up on the Crystal Beach was still burning... although it looked somewhat dim, it showed no signs of going out.

"Really...really do this?" Before the deep-sea heavy cruiser, Xiao Bei, who appeared to be a fragment of the previous Northern Princess's body, could finish speaking, she was tied up like a dumpling by the Flying Field Princess Wo-chan.

Then, without the help of other ship girls, Wo-chan tied herself up.

Standing in his magic tower, Sordbrega watched this scene, shook his head, and sighed, "Did Lord Adun foresee this all along?"

Unfortunately, there wasn't much time for Soderbrega to dwell on this, because countless deep-sea ship girls had already surrounded her.

If Naval Base 666 had one of the original ship girls who had experienced the first battle, it would be astonishing that these deep-sea ship girls had become like their former enemies.

Like those ancient deep seas that have no self, no will, and only know how to destroy everything related to humanity.

Only by that bonfire can the deep-sea ship girls retain a trace of what can be called "humanity," which is why Wo-chan came over and tied all her subordinates, including herself, into salted fish dumplings.

Even deep-sea ship girls, once they have their own will, would not want to lose it again.

Seemingly sensing the changes in the world and the deep sea, Xiao Xu, who was with Aden, asked, "Playing with the power of life... isn't that beyond the purview of the Dau Doctrine?"

"The Da'u Doctrine? What's that?" A'don's answer startled Xiao Xu for a moment, but he quickly recovered and chuckled:

"Yeah, the Daw Doctrine, what is that? When I was created, you Protoss couldn't even build a proper house!"

Awakened by the terrifying power, Dalaran was teleported from her research lab to the platform where the first-generation ship girls were gathered. She glanced at the magic circle and her expression changed drastically.

"How dare someone do this? Oh no! Admiral, you need help!"

Before she could take flight, another ship grabbed her shoulder and pinned her down. Gantricho, who was holding down Dalaran, said:

"This is my mission..."

☆, Chapter 1466 The Invincible Ark

Gan Cui Suo's task was simple: to act as a guard when needed, and to stay at home when not needed.

Dalaran also had her own mission, although at first she didn't understand what Adun meant by "stabilizing the world."

But when Dalaran saw the enormous Kabbalah Tree of Life array, he understood.

Dalaran has never seen a similar magic circle, but it has seen many things with similar functions.

Something similar exists deep within Ulduar, deep within the Hall of Origin.

The purpose of these things is to initiate a systemic reboot when a "testing ground" world like Azeroth goes out of control.

Dalaran also discovered that the magic circle, which appeared to be towering in the sky but was actually appearing in the "vision," was not restarting the world.

Rather, it is "life".

If activated, life in this world will be reduced to zero, and then, after an unknown number of years, the next civilization era will begin.

Everything from this civilization's era will be forgotten.

Dalaran was unaware that this world had actually been in use more than 10,000 years ago.

They were unaware of the existence of certain unspeakable knowledge. After defeating the invaders in the previous era using a method that was almost mutually destructive, they completed in less than a few thousand years what normal civilizations take tens or even millions of years to achieve.

Well... even if we knew, it wouldn't matter. What Dalaran is thinking about now is how to interrupt this spell.

If this spell is fully unleashed, then the native civilization of this world will be doomed, and I myself may also be affected.

Clearly, this was not what Admiral Adon wanted.

The problem is that this spell seems to be already fully formed, a spell that affects a world based on the world itself... It doesn't seem like it can be broken so easily.

“It’s simple. Just take off my collar and I’ll tell you what to do,” Sentinax said, looking at the Tree of Life in the air with a hint of interest.

"Just tell me, why did you take off the collar?" Dalaran has the authority to remove the collar from Sentinax's neck, but she won't be fooled by a mere demon warship.

“Well… it’s a demonstration, after all!” Sentinax said.

“Demonstrate what?” Dalaran asked.

“Demonstrate how to secretly increase this Tree of Life, and then make this world the Legion’s forward position!” Sentinax didn’t hide his plans.

"..." Dalaran was stunned for a moment.

“Well, at most, turning into the Legion’s front line will just mean everyone becomes a demon. If we don’t do this, then we won’t even be able to become demons,” Sentinax said.

"..." If the situation weren't so serious, Dalaran would really like to give this demon warship a good beating.

As a high-end, professional, and mysterious side-ship girl, Dalaran knew that Sentinax's method was correct.

If no changes are made and this magic circle continues to ferment, then the power of all living beings in the ship girl world will become sacrifices to achieve a certain goal.

To put it more simply, this "Tree of Life" is a basic agreement that the native inhabitants of this world must abide by.

Whether to delete or format, it's all possible as long as you have the Tree of Life, which acts as the 'operating' system.

Sentinax's method was to implant a virus, completely altering the operating system.

Judging from Sentinax's familiar attitude, the Burning Legion may have encountered this situation more than once.

“Of course… there are quite a few who mobilized their entire clan to fight against the legion, only to be slapped to death by the legion. We’ve seen this kind of thing many times,” Sentinax said.

While Sentinax was having a headache in Dalaran, he was rambling on and on, not caring what others thought.

The nine monsters born from the Tree of Life, who had been posing in a ritualistic manner around the Protoss ships Adun and Void in broad daylight, began to move.

Unfortunately, whatever they planned to do next, they couldn't finish it.

The overwhelming swarm of "little flies" knocked two of them to the ground, while the rest were utterly routed by the seemingly endless array of carrier-based aircraft.

“…Well, that’s the second solution too,” Sentinax said, his lips twitching.

They just blasted the enemy apart with sheer force. Are those Protoss ships all freaks? How come each one of them has planet-destroying power?

Sentinax suddenly realized that perhaps his creators, the Eredar, had made a mistake by joining the Burning Legion.

Their home base is so powerful, why would they even consider the Burning Legion...?

Gantricus, who appeared in Adun and Hue's field of vision, simply nodded and did not say anything more.

Then, like a queen bee, she commanded an exaggeratedly large swarm of bees to devour the nine monsters born from the Tree of Life in the ship girl world.

"Is one ship enough for her?" Even after being attacked by those nine monsters for half a day, Xiao Xu remained completely calm.

“And…” Adon’s expression was even calmer than Xiao Xu’s.

As soon as Adun finished speaking, the two monsters that had been shot down on the spot seemed to be enraged. They roared, opened their mouths full of sharp teeth, and used their hands and feet to climb onto the outer protective device of the rail elevator and charged towards Adun and Xiao Xu's location.

One after the other, one after the other, one in front... The monster running in front seemed to sense something was wrong. It turned around and saw that its "companion" that was supposed to be with it had disappeared without a trace.

Looking up again, I saw a huge, spindle-shaped flying monster using several tentacles to pull its struggling "companion" to its belly.

Judging from the extent of the struggle, it was clearly unpleasant, but unfortunately, no matter how unpleasant it was, it was impossible to resist.

Finally, with a loud "glug," the white monster born from the Tree of Life was swallowed whole by a chubby monster hundreds of times its size.

"Aren't you afraid of getting a stomachache?" Gan Cuisuo, who had appeared inside the giant beast at some unknown time, asked.

"Ugh...uh...ugh...the taste is indeed not good, the 'meat' is too tough." Izusa, whose clone appeared from the inner wall of her main body, said with a troubled expression.

As she spoke, the enormous Zerg Leviathan shuddered a few times as if it had eaten something unpalatable, and then with a "poof," it spat out the small white monster covered in strange slime.

Seeing that the monster was unharmed, though it looked somewhat disheveled, Izusa said, "This thing is really sturdy."

“Of course, after all, it’s a product of the world,” Gan Cuisuo said.

"Do you have the ability to destroy these things?" Izsa asked.

“Actually, the best solution is to destroy this planet directly; a rootless plant will naturally have nowhere to survive,” Gan Cuisuo said.

"So that means it's not going to work?" Izusa asked, getting straight to the point.

Gan Cuisuo felt a little embarrassed that a foreign insect had told him he was no good, but he still spoke up:

"It's alright, our mission is just to buy time."

"Will we stall until Adun succeeds or the opponent wins?" Izsa asked.

“The Spear of Adun will not fail,” Gantricso said with absolute certainty.

Chapter 1467 Seeds

“She actually trusts you quite a bit,” Xiao Xu said to Adon in a half-joking tone after overhearing Gantricso and Izsa’s conversation.

"Do you think we'll fail?" Ardon countered.

“You might, but we won’t.” A strange expression appeared on Xiao Xu’s face.

“I know you won’t, and neither will I.” Ardon’s conversation with Xiao Xu sounded like a Zen riddle.

"Oh? You really believe in the seed you left in another world?" Little Xu asked Adun.

“She wasn’t the only seed, nor was she the most suitable one.” Looking at the starry sky beyond the barrier, Adun paused for a moment before continuing, “It was just a random decision.”

"Hopefully she won't argue with you after she realizes what's happened," Xiao Xu said with a smile.

“She won’t,” Ardon said, shaking his head.

Regardless of how the South Dakota, who is currently serving as the Grand Marshal on Earth 002, viewed the mission that Adun forcibly imposed on her after learning the truth, the seed mentioned in the chat remains unresolved.

Anyway, she's already having all sorts of headaches because of the sudden situation where the ship girls are gradually losing their power.

Incidentally, the news that Izzi II had warned of several fleets approaching Earth left South Dakota speechless.

This is truly a case of misfortunes never coming singly.
