I, a ship girl, am the savior of civilization.

It is now 2019, the true peak of PPDC, because the Pioneers intentionally kept the low-level Kaiju away from the Dawn's range, so the other bases actually shared the Kaiju of the Hong Kong base.

Basically, the other bases have all developed their own Level 4 mechs and have one or more Level 3 mechs stationed there.

After careful counting, the entire PPDC now has a total of 27 mechs, of which 8 are level 4 and the rest are level 3.

Furthermore, according to logistical calculations, the two Tier 4 mechs currently under construction will be completed within the next year. Most importantly, the fifth-generation mech independently developed by the Australian base, the Eureka Raider, is also about to be unveiled.

The Pioneer Civilization could never have imagined that 30 mechs would descend upon the wormhole simultaneously.

This is a sure thing.

Finally, PPDC decided to consider launching the wormhole destruction plan only after the Eureka Raider and the other two Tier 4 mechs were completed.

Before truly witnessing the power of the pioneering civilization, the wormhole at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean connecting to another civilization is an immeasurable treasure, and no leader is willing to easily relinquish it.

"So, next up is about that mothership that claims to belong to the Elriel civilization."

When the Dawn was mentioned, Chen Hui fell silent. Because of the Dawn's existence, life at the entire Hong Kong base was incredibly comfortable, so everyone, including Chen Hui, was close to the Dawn.

Just like Cai Tiantong, a staff officer who was recently transferred to the base, he and his grandfather were protected by the Dawn when they were in San Francisco.

During the San Francisco incident, before the Axehead could further destroy the city, the Dawn took down the Kaiju, indirectly saving their lives.

The Hong Kong base has always adhered to the principle of peaceful coexistence and is therefore willing to treat the Dawn as an equal. But reason tells Chen Hui that people from other bases will not think the same way.

As expected, Lima, who was still resentful about the previous failed negotiations, was the first to attack the Dawn, saying that internal strife must precede external resistance. Since they had the intelligence, they might as well just seize the Dawn to avoid being betrayed when they officially started fighting the Pioneers.

He puts on an act of concern for humanity, but everyone knows he's just after the Dawn.

However, given that the Lima commander is backed by the United States, this is understandable given the US's style of acting as the world's policeman. But it's somewhat inappropriate that the American generals, Anchorage and the Los Angeles lieutenant general, brought it up directly, especially since neither of them had said so.

Of course, given Stark's personality, he wouldn't betray the Dawn. Because his only family member died in San Francisco, Stark spent his entire life fighting the Kaiju.

Stek shared the same positive feelings towards the Dawn as Chen Hui. "As long as we open the Chrysanthemum Beast together, we'll be good comrades."

However, with orders from the state behind him, Stek could only remain silent at best. The PPDC was ultimately an affiliated organization of the United Nations, and among the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, there were more than just one or two who had designs on the Dawn.

The meeting ended hastily because the plan had not yet been finalized, but the conspiracy targeting the Laura ship was slowly coming to light.

As the person at the heart of this vortex, Laura is now caught in a deep dilemma.

With the nanounits attached to Chen Hui, Laura was naturally well-informed about the meeting. However, Laura had made the necessary preparations before contacting PPDC.

If the PPDC dares to attack the Dawn, then Laura will show them why flowers are so red.

Perhaps it was the long-term use of electromagnetic guns that led PPDC to develop a weapon called Dawn specifically designed to counter the Kaiju. Their inability to deal with the large legions beyond visual range gave them the confidence to declare war on Dawn.

But Laura herself knew very well that, no matter what, she was ultimately the supreme mothership that brought together 21st-century weapons.

Previously, due to the limited effectiveness of various anti-air and anti-ship weapons against the Kaiju, Laura had never revealed her true strength. If a real battle were to break out, Laura was confident of victory as long as she didn't resort to strategic weapons.

What truly troubled Laura was how to use the 5 civilization command points she had.

Since everyone wants more frequent updates, I'll update two 4k chapters a day next month.

I'm such a good author who spoils my readers.

So, shouldn't you all... you should understand, right?

21. Corrosion torpedoes and ship-cutting swords

Skyhook is a level 4 Kaiju, and according to Noah's assessment, it is worth four Civilization Commands. Adding the one remaining from before, Laura has a total of five Commands at her disposal, making her richer than ever before.

Then, after glancing at the technology tree, the dazzling array of technologies made Laura realize her own limitations.

The civilization commands at hand are not even enough to fill the gaps in Noah's technology tree.

However, the five civilization commands would indeed allow Laura to give her ship a major upgrade. Analyzing the Dawn's current weaknesses and potential challenges in future battles, Laura tentatively listed several urgent issues that needed to be addressed.

First, the Pioneer wormhole is located underwater, and the current deep-sea mode of the Dawn is severely lacking in combat capability. Apart from the most basic torpedoes, it has almost no weapons available.

Needless to say, the acceleration channel of an electromagnetic railgun cannot be flooded, and the high-strength tungsten steel projectiles are also easily affected by ocean currents underwater, not to mention the lack of visibility caused by low light in the deep sea.

On land or at sea, Laura was confident she could easily kill even a level 5 Kaiju Venomous Woman, but underwater, the Dawn didn't even dare to get close.

"Therefore, we need weapons capable of underwater warfare..."

With her index finger twirling her blonde hair, Laura's gaze swept over the list Noah had selected, finally deciding to choose from the three weapons.

[Space Erosion Torpedo: A torpedo weapon based on rudimentary space technology. It uses gravitational waves to erode the space surrounding the target, causing the constituent particles of the matter to become disordered and eventually collapse.]

[Matter resonance torpedo: Based on the resonance effect, it delivers vibrations of a specific frequency to the target during operation, significantly increasing the target's amplitude and creating resonance, thus achieving the target's self-destruction.]

[Mothership Ramming Ring: High-frequency ramming ring, don't ask questions, just ram it.]

The Erosion Torpedo requires two Civilization Commands, while the Resonance Torpedo and the Ram only require one. Laura fully understands this; after all, the Erosion Torpedo has already ventured into space, so it's normal for it to be more expensive.

The levels of technology can be seen from the civilization commands consumed.

Laura's current hull is still classified as a Tier 1 hull in Noah's classification, while the Erosion Torpedo is one of the few Tier 2 weapons that the Dawn can currently load.

The erosion torpedo has great potential. After upgrading the hull, it can be modified and used again. Anyway, we don't lack civilization commands now, so let's choose this one.

Moreover, Noah had previously stated that choosing the more expensive option was definitely the right thing to do.

Silently telling herself this, Laura lit up the icon for the Erosion Torpedo. After thinking for a moment, Laura decided to activate the ram as well.

If close combat becomes unavoidable, then ramming the horn might be the key to Laura's comeback and victory.

Civilization Command Instantaneous-3: An indescribable power once again enveloped the entire Dawn, perfectly embedding the erosion torpedoes and rams into the mothership.

In an instant, Laura felt ten thick and long special torpedoes appear inside her ship, and at the same time, the armor where the mother ship intersected with the horizontal plane was replaced with a ram ring.

In addition, the ship equipment that is connected to the mind seems to have undergone some special changes.

After confirming that Jefferson wouldn't be back anytime soon, Laura drew the curtains, plunging the room into darkness.

With the ship's equipment loaded, Laura's entire outfit underwent a complete transformation. Her low-heeled boots were replaced by the ship girl's signature high-heeled propulsion boots, and massive, heavy armor completely protected Laura.

If Jefferson's pilot apartment hadn't been quite large, Laura wouldn't have even dared to summon her ship equipment here.

Only when she was wearing the ship's rigging could Laura feel that she was not a destroyer.

Looking closely at itself, it felt that apart from the addition of an extra set of corrosive torpedo launch ports, there weren't many changes to the ship's equipment.

but……

Reaching behind her, Laura pulled hard, and a dazzling, deep blue light flashed past.

Her small hands held it in front of her eyes, and the light shone on Laura's face, revealing a faint smile.

Laura is quite familiar with the ship-slaying sword in her hand.

Although it's a bit strange for a ship girl to call a high-frequency principle ramming ring sword a ship-slaying sword, Laura decided to call it that anyway.

Perhaps it's a kind of sentiment.

Just by looking at this ship-mounted weapon, Laura knew she hadn't made the wrong choice. That ship-slaying sword was truly awesome.

--split line--

Following the meeting, the Dawn and PPDC maintained a rather delicate relationship.

It was that feeling of mutual respect, but secretly plotting something behind each other's backs. Laura didn't like it, but she didn't bother to deal with it.

As time passed to 2020, the PPDC's most powerful Tier 5 mech, the Eureka Raider, successfully made its debut. In the same year, the Pioneer Civilization proved Laura's earlier statement by significantly increasing the frequency of Kaiju invasions.

During this time, older mechs were destroyed, while newer, more advanced ones were continuously built. A strange balance was reached.

Seemingly to test the limits of the Dawn AI, after making ample preparations for war, the PPDC and the United Nations did not immediately launch an attack on the wormhole, but instead delayed it.

Although Laura was somewhat anxious, she knew she couldn't contact PPDC first. Otherwise, the unfolding scenario might not be a joint expedition towards the wormhole, but rather the Dawn facing off against the mech horde.

In 2021, a Kaiju with a size and energy level exceeding the normal level four set off from the wormhole toward the Hong Kong base and was named "Mammoth" by the PPDC.

PPDC demanded that Dawn honor its previous agreement with PPDC and proceed to engage the enemy. Simultaneously, they wanted to use this Kaiju, whose stats were subtly surpassing and approaching Tier 5, to test Dawn's limits.

In the ensuing battle, Laura fired seven tungsten steel bullets at the mammoth from five kilometers away. Although the bullets successfully pierced the creature's skin, the damage they caused was consistently low.

The electromagnetic railgun was very powerful, but because it was so concentrated, the wounds, each less than half a meter long, were barely noticeable on the nearly 100-meter-long mammoth.

Laura wanted to use the same method she had used to kill the Kaiju before, to blow its skull apart, but this time the Vanguard was clearly prepared, hiding the Mammoth's brain in its tail.

Its tail, moving in Brownian motion, made it impossible for the electromagnetic cannon to predict and aim, and being hidden behind it, Laura couldn't break off the tail. For a moment, the Dawn was unable to stop the Mammoth's advance.

"If this continues, the PPDC's awe of the Dawn will probably vanish completely..."

Laura retracted the electromagnetic channel and shook her head, but a smile appeared on her lips.

"Then, let's try out the new weapon."

The nuclear reactor supplied immense energy to the Dawn's ram ring, which was hidden on the horizontal plane. After a slight preheating, the entire Dawn was at full power, fearlessly ramming into the mammoth.

The dark blue ramming ring, like the Grim Reaper's scythe, easily sliced ​​the mammoth in two. It then slammed the two halves of the body into the air, nearly a hundred meters high.

On the ocean, which was filled with the monstrous blue of piracy, the bridge radar of the Dawn temporarily stopped turning and faced the sky, seemingly staring at some people in the PPDC through satellites in space.

Then, the Dawn slowly sank and disappeared from everyone's sight, just like always.

In the vast and boundless starry sky

In the ethereal chaos

In the quantum sea surrounding the universe

There was a guy named Bismarck...

"So why did I become Bismarck? And why do I have to shoulder such a heavy mission?"

A white-haired, red-eyed girl with cat ears bears the mission of defeating an evil god...

"By the way, what is an evil god? Hey, listen to me!"

Praise be to the birth of a new world consciousness!

Praise be to the new Void Beings! ...

What have I become?
