The first shot certainly missed, Miss Hood's eyesight was indeed quite average. The vanguard retreated a little, maintaining their formation and pressing forward, constantly moving to avoid the Siren's bombardment without disrupting it.
Judging from their overall formation, it was obvious that they were already very skilled in how to fight.
The battle ended very quickly. The bombardment of Long Island's carrier aircraft and Miss Hood had a great destructive effect on these small and scattered Siren ships. After confirming the sinking, little Laffite sleepily went forward to collect the spoils.
"It was solved very quickly. I really envy your firepower." Phoenix looked at Miss Hood's cannon with envy. Miss Hood was quite reserved and smiled politely. The few of them chatted while waiting for Laffite to come back, and then continued their patrol and prepared for the next
A battle.
The ship girl who stayed behind today is Eldridge. I don't know if she and Laffey are the only destroyers in the port. I always feel that Eldridge's sleepiness has deepened a lot recently. I guess she learned bad things from Laffey.
She was sleeping on Su Xin's back, and even the various sound effects in the video couldn't wake her up.
Su Xin sat cross-legged on the bed, straining a little to hold her waist in place, supporting the Pikachu that was sleeping soundly on her back. Next to her was Wu Mu, who was happily watching a video. It seemed like she was laughing all day long, enjoying the video.
The.
Usually Su Xin would also watch a little bit, but for some reason, today Su Xin felt very depressed, always feeling panicky, and her heart rate was not stable. Something made her very uneasy, causing her to not be able to watch anything.
Go in.
She sat there in a daze, pursing her lips, thinking about what went wrong. In fact, she had checked the room and found no cameras, so her special features should not have been exposed. She also followed the instructions of the ship girls as usual.
OK, so what else haven't been considered?
A soothing and faint sound woke Su Xin up from her deep thoughts. It was her cell phone ringing.
She looked at the number displayed on the caller and didn't quite understand why she was called at this time, but Su Xin didn't think much about it and just answered the call.
"Hey?"
"Yeah, I know."
"Good news?"
"Ah... should I guess? I can't guess..."
"Ah, really?!" Su Xin seemed to have heard something very happy. Wu Mu turned down the volume a lot and moved closer to the TV, not listening to the specific content of the conversation.
"So... is my sister about to come?"
"Well that's great."
"I'm not unhappy, but I don't know why today, I feel a little flustered..."
There was a hint of grievance in Su Xin's voice, the kind of grievance that comes from knowing that something is wrong with her emotions, but not being able to find out what the problem is. This strange feeling made her feel a little uncomfortable.
"Um...nothing I need help with..."
"Ah, sister, are you coming tonight?"
"Then..." Su Xin hesitated a little, "Can you come faster?"
Wu Mu was actually very curious, "Call her sister... then who could it be, my real sister?"
She turned around and looked at Su Xin. The person on the other end of the phone seemed to have agreed. This made Su Xin's expression brighter and her previous depressed mood eased a lot, which made Wu Mu feel relieved. She knew that Su Xin was not in a good mood.
But it was not easy to ask, so I could only amplify the sound of the funny video. Unfortunately, it seemed to be of no use. Fortunately, this upcoming "sister" solved this problem.
"Yeah! I'm really sorry."
"Well, thank you. Goodbye, sister."
After saying goodbye, Su Xin hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief. The feeling of uneasiness subsided a little, but it still existed. She looked at the time and it was almost noon, so she simply calmed down and woke up Pikachu to go eat together.
"We've gained quite a lot today." Cleveland weighed a handful of metal plates in his hand, which made a crisp metallic sound when they collided. "It seems we have accumulated quite a lot."
"Well."
Helena nodded and confirmed Cleveland's words. She looked up at the sky. It always gets dark quickly in winter. Helena thought for a while and said, "Let's play one more game and then go back, right? Su Su just called to ask about our location.
I guess he is worried."
Everyone had no objection. They could rest earlier if they finished work earlier. It was tiring to be on alert all the time, especially for Rafi. She was not allowed to sleep or drink. She had no interest in fighting, so it would be better if she could go back earlier.
it is good.
Helena continued to scout the enemy, and soon discovered the Siren ship.
"alert."
Everyone quickly focused their attention and entered combat mode, but after maintaining their formation and moving forward for a while, they did not find any trace of the Siren ship. Helena felt something was not right, so she asked Changdao to release the carrier aircraft just in case.
As the sky darkened, the carrier aircraft's reconnaissance capabilities were limited, and the group still couldn't find the Siren. Miss Hood frowned, feeling unsafe, and suggested returning to port. But just as the ship girls were about to evacuate, a flash of fire appeared in the distance.
, the sea surface around him exploded.
The ship girls deployed their formations to prepare for camp, but the dim light really affected their vision. When the real battle started, they found that the enemy was no longer just a few scattered ships. The continuous bombardment and delayed sound
The roar indicated that the enemy was definitely numerous.
"Be careful to dodge!"
"boom!"
With the flash of fire and the dull cry of pain, Miss Hood, who was moving and shooting, was suddenly knocked away and rolled several times on the sea. Amid the exclamations of her companions, Miss Hood uttered the first swear word since she was born.
"Fuck...my waist."
ps: The battle scenes are as bad as always... I don't really understand what a real fight is like, so the enemy search and artillery fire can't stand up to scrutiny. Fortunately, there are not many battle scenes, so just bear with it (sigh
Chapter 83: Reinforcements
The Siren fleet we encountered this time was indeed different from the previous ones. The number alone was not right. Previously, we encountered only three or two Siren ships in a small fleet. There would be only one battleship or aircraft carrier at most.
It's really no big deal, the time it takes just depends on whether Miss Hood performs and when she can hit the target.
I am the Royal Glory, but my long-range sniping is not as good as that old woman's. Can't I just get closer and shoot?
Unfortunately, the situation this time was different from the past. Judging from the fire that lit up at the moment of the artillery salvo, the enemy was not just a few small-scale Siren ships. There were probably about three battleships alone, and even an aircraft carrier.
presence.
As the sky darkened, Changdao's combat capability was greatly reduced, but fortunately she was still able to maintain air control and prevent the Siren carriers from attacking the sea. However, she herself had no time to drop bombs on the enemy, and with her ability, she was not yet able to
It is enough to control two types of carrier aircraft under high pressure to complete this complex division of labor operation.
At the vanguard, the Portland was in the front. The heavy cruiser's good armor gave her strong survivability. The light cruiser and destroyer followed behind, keeping a certain distance, launching an offensive against the enemy's light ships, and at the same time trying to
The capital ship launched a jamming attack.
Although Kumano is also a heavy cruiser, to be honest, she does not have much combat experience. She came here to gain experience. Although she killed many monsters, she still did not perform well in real combat under such circumstances. She was almost killed several times.
Hit by the Siren's artillery fire, they had no choice but to follow the advice and be responsible for the escort of the main battleship together with Ming Miao, one ensuring air defense and the other responsible for vigilance.
In order to avoid the bombardment, all the ship girls kept moving, but it was getting dark quickly, and the light was not enough. There were always some ship girls who were unlucky and would be hit by the Siren. Unfortunately, the first one to be hit was
It's Miss Hood.
She used the fire that lit up the moment the Siren fired as a reference and fired at the approximate location, but missed. Before she could get frustrated, the opponent seemed to have aimed in the right direction and fired a volley towards them.
The area covered by the shells was basically unavoidable. It was dark and I couldn't see clearly where I was. I could only distract myself by watching the light track of the shells in the air and subconsciously dodge. Then I felt a pain in my waist and Miss Hood felt like she was flying into the air.
, then fell on the sea and rolled several times.
Amid the other ship girls' anxious and concerned cries, Miss Hood cursed while holding her side.
"Fuck...my waist."
Without having time to check her injuries, Miss Hood climbed up, holding her waist, and immediately moved sideways. Not long after, her original position was bombarded again. Miss Hood gasped with her hair loose, but fortunately she ran fast.
"Are you okay?!"
Long Island was closer, so she asked loudly. Miss Hood used her white-gloved hands to comb her hair which was sticky with sea water.
"A bullet in the waist, no big deal."
The vanguards were also rushing back, everyone wanted to retreat, but the Siren had no intention of letting them go, and the enemy battleships never stopped firing, leaving them no chance to discuss carefully. They could only maintain their formation while fighting and retreating.
There were no ship girls from other ports in the sea, as if there was some interference. Mobile phones could not make calls and it became more difficult to detect the enemy. This was why we didn't see the enemy at first after searching for a long time.
"...We can only hold on for a while and see if the ship girls on duty near the danger line can come to support us."
The battle with the Siren was very close. The light ships had been almost cleared, but those battleships were really hard to deal with. Nagashima was still playing chess with the opponent's aircraft carrier. The sound of carrier-based aircraft fighting and shooting never stopped.
After being shot, Miss Hood's condition was greatly reduced, mainly because her artillery fire became less accurate and she couldn't even hit the hull of the opposing Siren ship.
The most fatal thing is the ignition effect on the ship girls.
The strikers and Miss Hood, as well as several ship girls who were injured in the direct exchange of fire, all had a sense of heat on their bodies. From time to time, faint flames lit up on their ship equipment, emitting sparks with dust and a little black smoke.
The state is continuously declining. Since it is the burning state of the ship's equipment, it cannot be solved by simply pouring seawater. It can only rely on the self-repair function of the ship's equipment to remove the impact. However, in the continuous battle, there is no chance to stay.
After a while, it was taken out of combat for repairs, so the burning state continued.
The Siren ships were also affected by the burning state, but with their thick skin and flesh, they seemed to be able to hold out for a long time. They did not stop firing or evacuate, and the pursuit became more and more fierce.
"Why haven't I met anyone yet?"
Changdao's carrier-based aircraft had also suffered heavy losses. If the stalemate continued, all of her carrier-based aircraft would have been flown away. It would take time for the carrier-based aircraft generated by her equipment to recover. By then, air superiority could not be ensured and the situation would only get worse.
"If this burns any further, I'm going to turn into a phoenix!" The Phoenix was really annoyed by the burning, and no matter how hard he tried to put out the fire, it wouldn't get cold. Thanks to its clothes, it didn't feel cold at all with its arms and legs exposed in the middle of winter.
"Are you still in the mood to tell jokes at this time, meow!?" Mingmiao didn't bring the box and other equipment with him when he went out, otherwise the fire extinguisher would come in handy.
After running for most of the day, I didn't see any patrolling ship girls. My luck was really bad. The consumption of Changdao's carriers and aircraft was about to reach the bottom, and the air supremacy was gradually losing control.
Portland was seriously injured. Because he was in the front before, the ignition effect was super doubled. The fire on his body can even be used to explore the way. I wanted to see Indy's doll, but I was afraid to take it out and light it in this state.
And selfishly, Li didn't really want his sister to see him like this, so he didn't take it out and moved a little further away from the fleet with the fireworks.
Rafi noticed it immediately, she moved closer and asked, "...what are you doing."
"It's too bright..." Portland looked uncomfortable. Her wrinkled face was clearly visible under the reflection of the fire. She thought for a moment and said, "It will expose our position."
Although Rafi just wanted to sleep every day, she could still hear Portland's subtext. Without hesitation, Rafi moved closer and stretched out her little hand to grab Portland's slightly warmer index finger.
"No."
Rafi had a blank expression and his attitude was unquestionable.
"boom--
The Siren's bombardment followed the burning human-shaped light source in the darkness and exploded not far from Rafi, splashing sea water all over Rafi.
Rafi wiped his face.
"No."
Portland was speechless and choked with a "wuuuuu".
The other ship girls who noticed the situation also moved a little closer, and rejected this proposal as they moved forward.
"Can't.
"No."
"Go back together."
Portland was very touched. At this time, if the light source was used as a target, the chances of others evacuating would be much greater, but no one agreed to use this method, which made her feel uncomfortable.
They couldn't run much anymore, and the speed of the ship girls gradually slowed down. The Siren ship behind them was still chasing them. Amid the roar of artillery fire, despair was quietly spreading, but no one spoke, just kept moving in silence.
Movement, interfering with shooting.
Finally, a shell hit the path of the ship girls and exploded in front of them. Miss Hood staggered, her injured waist instantly lost strength, and she fell to the ground. The same thought crossed everyone's mind.
"It's over."
But the roar of artillery fire that followed was different from the artillery fire of the Siren battleship that he had heard for a long time before. It was duller and longer, and even the direction from which the sound came was different.
At the same time, the ship girls felt that the firing frequency of the Siren ship had decreased slightly, which allowed them to escape from the suffocating artillery attack.
The ship girls raised their heads and looked forward. It seemed to be a slightly burly figure, with a very large and strong upper body.
The shells flew over our heads, and the roar of the second artillery attack came late, followed by a cross-shaped blue barrage, accompanied by a few yellow barrages that streaked across the sky. The huge number of barrages brought light at the moment of launch,
This allowed the ship girls to clearly see the figure coming towards them quickly in the distance.
Is it the fox strategist in a red robe, and the black-haired cat girl with bright eyes lying on her back?
ps: Don't mind the minor bugs, like how can you hit the cannonball when it's so big and the hood is so small, and the cannonball glows and stuff, let's just play the game...(scratching my head
