The Naval Base of the Unnamed Ship Girls

"Ugh, are you being looked down upon?" Avant-garde said angrily, waving his scepter as if to send the firecrackers flying.

While pondering why the other party would do this, Reputation suddenly realized something. The light blue barrier used for key protection deepened slightly in color, and he shouted, "All ships, evasive maneuvers!"

Immediately after calculating the impact of distance, wind speed, and ship speed on the trajectory using the fuse, another barrage of artillery fire came from the deep-sea fleet.

Nelson and Rodney avoided most of the shells by relying on their agility in ship-mounted form; even when they were near misses, they didn't even amount to a scratch.

However, the Vanguard, with its larger size and greater hit area, was not so lucky. Apart from the Reputation using its emergency psionic shields to protect some key positions, the entire Glory ship looked as if it had been bombed.

"Ouch!" Just as badly damaged as the Glory ship's hull, the Vanguard standing at the bow had several pieces of torn clothing, and even the scepter in her hand had become much dimmer.

"The Shield of Resilience can be used like this?" Hyperion exclaimed in surprise as he watched the first round from the top of the signal tower.

"This isn't a shield of fortitude, it's just a way of using a psionic shield," Adun, who had also stopped listening to music and started watching the artillery barrage, said.

"Huh? Your psionic shield can be used on others? Look carefully, this isn't charging the shield, it's giving a shield effect to someone who didn't have one before." Hyperion said in surprise. Although the shield looked thinner than paper, it was still a psionic shield.

Furthermore, the main function of the psionic shield is to neutralize energy attacks, which is indeed not very effective against live-fire artillery fire in naval battles.

“Theoretically, it is possible to do this; this ship girl is very talented.” Adun was also somewhat surprised by Renown’s abilities.

"So it's talent, huh? I thought you Protoss stole our Tech Orb technology, allowing the Immortals to cast the Shield of Fortitude on others," Hyperion said with a sigh of relief upon seeing Adun's genuine surprise.

"Report damage," the reputation leader shouted, maintaining his psionic shield.

“No injury!” “There are abrasions!” Nelson Rodney’s voice came through the communicator first.

"Middle damage... oh no, minor damage." The avant-garde said pitifully, tugging at his clothes to try and prevent them from being see-through.

"Where is the young master?" Renown asked Prince Eugen.

“He’s already dizzy,” Prince Eugen replied.

"What happened?" Shengwang was a little nervous. Although she had mainly protected the area where the young master was, it was not to say that everything was foolproof.

"I mean, I just knocked him unconscious and dragged him to a safe place." Prince Eugen had already pulled out his spiked club to avoid being accused of dereliction of duty.

"Well done," Reputation praised.

"Watch out, enemy artillery fire is coming again," Nelson's voice suddenly rang out.

Then came another barrage of artillery fire. With a "thud," the vanguard knelt down on the deck of his glorious ship's armor, his body smoking as he declared himself broken.

------------------

Well, this fortress will be defeated by experienced players. This game is more fun if you are familiar with the terrain.

I need to study other heroes more; I think Vampire Chicken is quite fun.

I played the Black Widow sniper a few times, and it turns out I've never really gotten used to sniping since the days of CS.

That self-destructing robot girl looks pretty powerful... what's her name again? D.Va?

Anyway, I don't know how many times I got blown to pieces by this robot when I chose the Fortress.

Chapter 183 Artillery Barrage

"When do we retaliate?" Nelson would not retaliate first, even after being showered with shells twice and suffering several scrapes, unless Reputation gave the order.

As a veteran ship girl who has been through many battles, she is no longer the kind of novice ship girl who would immediately retaliate if she saw the Abyssal Fleet firing at her, and neither is her unreliable younger sister.

On the high seas, obedience to orders is paramount. If a ship girl disobeys orders and fires first, it can lead to all sorts of unplanned consequences and may even negatively impact the otherwise favorable battle situation.

"Wait a minute, I'll fire first." As he spoke, Revelation glanced again at the two interstellar ship girls on the signal tower who seemed to have no intention of joining the battle, and silently complained to himself, "The Immortal's antimatter shattering cannon is powerful, but its range is too short."

"What am I supposed to do?" The vanguard, already severely damaged and fuming, felt that if the barrage of attacks came a couple more times, he might be on his knees.

"Repair materials will be reimbursed double, and there will be additional rewards upon returning to the garrison." Reputation said in a calm tone.

"Then I can fight for another five hundred years!" Upon hearing what the reputation said, the vanguard immediately stood up from his exhausted state and said passionately, completely disregarding the fact that he had already revealed all sorts of cleavage.

"Were they scared?" The fact that they didn't fire because of Renown's order caused a stir among the deep-sea ship girls who were reloading.

"A hero-class ship girl wouldn't be scared by this scene." For some reason, the deep-sea naval combatant's expression was somewhat unpleasant.

"One more salvo, and they'll know there's no point in trying to get the first move," said the deep-sea carrier, who had been on standby beside the deep-sea combat aircraft.

"Another salvo? Or is it just my imagination..." Despite having a significant advantage, and even with the enemy's main battleship already moderately damaged, the shadow in the deep-sea battleship's intuition still lingered and even intensified.

"One more round, and you won't have a chance." Although he didn't know what these deep-sea ship girls were talking about, Renown's face showed a victorious smile as he watched the two fleets getting closer and closer.

"Not good." Although the radar scan kept telling him that these were the only enemies, Adun and Hyperion, which could be directly observed with sight, did not appear on the radar screen of this deep-sea battleship.

Even this deep-sea battleship, which is almost identical to the Princess-class, cannot be observed at such close range...

"Leader-class...?" This was the last memory of this deep-sea battleship girl in her life of war.

Just as she was about to ask her commander why he was so surprised by the bad news about the deep-sea carrier, she saw that without any counterattack or the sound of shells whistling, her leader, the deep-sea carrier whose combat power was almost as close as the Princess-class, disintegrated into a blue light spot along with the upper part of her whale-shaped ship equipment.

The deep-sea ship girls, who had already loaded their shells and were waiting for the next salvo order, looked at the remaining half of their ship equipment sinking into the sea with horrified eyes.

Then, at the command of Renown, Nelson and Rodney unleashed the barrage of BIG7-class battleship girls upon the heads of these Abyssal ship girls.

With its firepower fully prepared, it is even comparable to the two salvos just fired by these deep-sea ship girls.

Before long, nearly a third of the deep-sea ship girls sank to the bottom of the sea along with their commander.

"Hold on! Hold on! Change formation to double column! Provide artillery cover, wait for me to launch the carrier-based aircraft!" The deep-sea carrier, who had replaced the deep-sea naval combat ship as the temporary commander, frantically waved its scepter.

In the midst of the chaos, another deep-sea battleship, just like the previous carrier battleship, had half of its body turn into a blue dot of light and sank to the seabed without any struggle.

"Are the Immortals' Antimatter Phase Shattering Cannons really that powerful?" Hyperion looked at the situation, which had shifted from one-sided to the other, and was somewhat astonished by the power of the two cannons from the Immortals' reputation.

“That comes at a price,” Adun said, his gaze falling on the head maid, Renown, who had disappeared from the ship’s equipment and was kneeling on the deck, her body emitting smoke just like the vanguard.

"Huh? The Immortal Ship's equipment can also carry overload modules?" Hyperion asked curiously, noticing Reputation's current status.

“It can be installed, but I promise I didn’t install those things on her when I was modifying her reputation,” Adun said with a slight sigh.

The Protoss do have an Overload Module, but it certainly won't work like the Reputation Module.

“That’s right. I remember you Protoss were shouting ‘War of Glory’ while activating the Overload Module as a last-ditch effort.” Hyperion saw that Reputation was still alive, albeit somewhat injured, and knew that Adun was right.

According to Hyperion's understanding of the Protoss, who were religious fanatics like Adun, the so-called Protoss version of Overload was no different from self-destruction.

"First, there was the shield transfer technology, and now she's developed a micro-overload capability on her own. Adun, are you really not going to add her to your Kara Light?" Hyperion praised the reputation of the head maid of Naval Base 233 with positive comments.

“If possible, I would accept her.” Adun agreed with Hyperion’s assessment; compared to Wo-chan and Nautilus, her reputation was much stronger.

“I remember you have a technology that can compress adamantium to trillions of times. You can try to see if you can use it on her later,” Hyperion continued, picking up where he left off.

"How did you know that?" Adun was surprised that Hyperion knew about this technology, which was considered a secret even among the Protoss.

“My engineer Swann from my ship once spoke with your Karax and learned a little bit about it,” Hyperion said, revealing his source of information.

"..." Adun thought that this was probably because the Protoss, after having their neural cords removed, couldn't chat in the psionic network, which is why they all became so talkative.

The carrier-based aircraft launched by the Deepsea Aircraft Carrier in desperation could not reverse the rapidly declining trend. The Vanguard was only moderately damaged, not heavily damaged. For a hero-class ship girl, moderate damage to the hull will not affect its firepower too much.

The deep-sea carrier, having launched all its stored carrier-based aircraft, discovered that this action only wasted a small amount of anti-aircraft ammunition stored within this hero battleship girl with its off-the-charts anti-aircraft capabilities.

"What do we do next, sir?" The deep-sea ship girls, suppressed by Nelson and Rodney's artillery fire, asked the temporary captain for his decision.

"..." The deep-sea aircraft carrier hesitated briefly, which caused the two deep-sea combat cruisers to be blasted into the seabed.

Realizing the situation was hopeless, the deep-sea carrier suppressed its fear of punishment for mission failure and gritted its teeth, saying, "Withdraw."

"The Deep Sea Fleet has withdrawn?" the vanguard, who was about to reap the rewards of the battle, asked with a puzzled look.

"This shows that the other side has deliberately infiltrated this area. There must be a traitor among them. Don't let them escape!" Renown commanded, enduring the pain of his ship's equipment cracking.

Upon hearing Renown's command, Nelson Rodney raised his cannons, and after several rounds of fire, he took down several more outdated deep-sea shipgirls.

However, they were powerless against the remaining fast deep-sea ship girls and the aircraft carrier commander.

"A British lady must be elegant"—this phrase, often uttered by the Nelson and Rodney sisters, implies that both of these ship girls are slow-moving battleships.

It seems a bit unreasonable to ask a slow-moving battleship to chase an aircraft carrier that is fleeing at full speed.

Just as these naval ship girls from Naval Base No. 233 were frowning, suddenly a series of splashes of water erupted beneath the feet of the several deep-sea ship girls that were about to disappear from sight. Before they could react to what was happening, they were sunk on their escape route.

The Nautilus, carrying a deep-sea submarine in its hand, surfaced with a wicked grin before diving back into the water.

In the end, only one deep-sea carrier was still fleeing at top speed. Even though she was now fleeing towards the heart of humanity, she was terrified by the defeat and punishment and was desperate to get away from this strange fleet as quickly as possible.

I used the raptor for an hour, flew up and shouted half a sentence before falling down...

☆, Chapter 184: The power has been weakened too much

"You said you'd cover for me." Seeing that only one deep-sea aircraft carrier had escaped, Adun put his headphones back on and continued listening to music.

"Hey, I've already circled around." Hyperion spread her arms to show several bombs. If she hadn't stopped them, these aerial bombs could have seriously damaged the Vanguard Glory ship's equipment.

Ardon, who was listening to music with his eyes closed, made no comment on Hyperion's criticism.

"Alright, alright, I'll help you all the way through." Hyperion was somewhat helpless about having such a commander, and turned around to shout to the ship girls of Naval Base No. 233 who were conducting post-war reconnaissance.

Do you need our help?

Upon hearing Hyperion's shout, the reputation replied, "If possible, please, Master, stop that deep-sea carrier."

A deep-sea carrier with combat capabilities around the Hero class is lurking in the heart of human territory, which will have a significant impact on the safety of the human camp.

If the fleet that encountered that deep-sea fleet this time was not composed of frontline warships like Renown, but rather a long-distance convoy consisting of cruise ships and transport shipgirls, the consequences would be unimaginable.

“This is a trivial matter; Adun doesn’t need to get involved.” Hyperion took a step into the air in front of him and appeared before Reputation the next second, asking, “Should we capture him alive?”

"If possible..." Reputation also had the idea of ​​capturing this deep-sea carrier and interrogating it to extract some information. A deep-sea fleet of this size could not have infiltrated human territory without Fallen agents as insiders.

"Tsk, that's troublesome. At such a distance, it's hard for me to control the force of my attack." Hyperion didn't want to fly over and grab the aircraft carrier himself; it would be too tiring.

"Then let it be, as long as that deep-sea carrier doesn't cause any more damage." Hearing Hyperion's hesitant expression, Renown immediately chose the most direct approach to avoid any unforeseen complications.

"Dead or alive? Fine, I like that line." Hearing this, Hyperion laughed triumphantly, and like Tidus patting Adun on the shoulder, he tiptoed and patted Reputation on the shoulder (the tragedy of a short man), saying:

"Make way, everyone. It's time for the Imperial flagship Hyperion to perform."

Upon hearing Hyperion's words, the ship girls of Naval Base No. 233 all took a few steps back. The power of starship girls could be seen from Adun's previous actions.
