Chapter 629: Enterprise?
"This combat power……how terrifying……" Memphis could no longer speak.
Because after the radar showed a response, everyone immediately fell into shock, visually seeing carrier aircraft flying in the sky.
The black fuselage flashed past in the air, and the Siren fleet beneath it exploded one after another, with flames floating on the sea surface and smoke obscuring the entire sky.
The Siren fleet that had just surrounded Washington and others, putting them in a desperate situation, actually collapsed completely in that instant.
"What the hell happened……all the Sirens within visual range have been completely cleared. Memphis, do you have any findings on your end?" North Carolina said in surprise.
Memphis shook her head, "The radar shows the enemy's response has completely disappeared."
At this moment, Washington shook her head, looking toward the flames and Siren wreckage floating on the sea surface ahead, "No, there's still an enemy watching us!"
After saying that, Washington, amidst everyone's confusion, shouted toward the front, "Hey, you bastard hiding over there, come out and show yourself! My main gun radar has locked onto your position! Want to have an upright battle?"
But the sea ahead showed no movement at all, only continuously burning Siren wreckage. Washington involuntarily furrowed her brows, extending the gun barrel on her right-hand ship equipment to adjust, "In that case, it seems I can only use my big gun to coax you out!"
All ship guns, aim——!
"Wait." North Carolina extended her arm to block Washington's side, staring straight ahead.
And there, upon the burning sea surface, a figure walked out.
Flames blazed behind her, smoke blocked the sunlight, making the place look gray and hazy, with Siren wreckage scattered all around her.
Her gray-white hair fluttered in the wind, her tattered cloak lifted by the heat, the right side of her body bore a flight deck, and in her left hand she held a massive bow, making her appear like a gray phantom.
"This appearance is that of a shipgirl," Memphis said, but she immediately furrowed her brows, "But……the radar cannot detect this unit at all……is it malfunctioning?"
"No." North Carolina shook her head, "Just, have you ever heard of a shipgirl this powerful?"
"No." Baltimore immediately shook her head, "As far as I know, even the Akagi and Kaga, the top combat power of this world, aren't this terrifying."
"Tsk." Washington spoke to the unknown shipgirl ahead, "Then, we are the vanguard fleet ordered to scout this outpost; I am Washington, please also report your information and affiliation!"
The distant shipgirl resembling a phantom gradually lifted her head, revealing a weathered face, but beneath the gray-white hair obscuring it, her features could not be made out at all.
A desolate voice came over, sounding cold and sharp, "I only want to confirm one matter with you."
"Huh? You actually ignored my question?" Washington showed some anger.
Then the shipgirl in front used actual actions to tell her, her question was indeed ignored.
"Tell me……your commander's name……" that shipgirl said.
North Carolina shook her head, "Before confirming your identity, we have no obligation to answer that question."
The suddenly appearing shipgirl, possessing such great strength and asking for her commander's name, North Carolina instinctively refused to answer; although Qin Ge's name is not a secret, in this situation it inevitably raises suspicion.
The distant shipgirl slightly staggered, as if recalling something, a hint of nostalgia flickered in her eyes, "……again like this……then this time it will surely be different!"
After speaking softly, she without hesitation turned around, "I will go confirm it myself……"
Saying this, she picked up the longbow, drew the bowstring with her hand, condensing a golden arrow between the strings; upon violently releasing it, only a golden swordsman like a flashing meteor was seen, instantly streaking across the sky and landing in the nearby Siren outpost.
"Boom!"
A deafening explosion rang out; the Siren outpost originally on the sea surface was instantly engulfed by the blast, and atop the Siren outpost a huge mushroom cloud actually formed, inside which were white smoke and red flames.
"Hiss……" the shipgirls present couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air; this scene was truly awe‑inspiring. They simply could not imagine what shipgirl could destroy a Siren outpost with a single arrow.
Until North Carolina, in her daze, saw the emblem on that shipgirl's cloak, "Wait……this cloak……how is that possible!
"Are you……Enterprise?!"
That unknown shipgirl over there did not turn her head, merely saying flatly, "No……you've mistaken the person."
Immediately, her figure vanished into the horizon formed of water and fire.
"North Carolina, is that shipgirl really Enterprise?" Seeing the unknown shipgirl disappear, everyone asked North Carolina with some surprise.
"Yes, as shipgirls, the clothing we have worn since birth is our ship equipment. And ship equipment belongs to the shipgirl, and is the reason we are called shipgirls.
That cloak is absolutely Enterprise's cloak; I could not possibly be mistaken.
So that shipgirl is Enterprise, but why? Why does she not acknowledge her name? And how did she become like this?" North Carolina said.
Regarding the appearance of another unknown Enterprise, North Carolina was not shocked, because in this world there is not just one Enterprise; another Enterprise appearing is also quite normal.
But given that this Enterprise's strength is truly too strong, strong to the point of slightly departing from this world, departing from their cognition, so when they discovered that the unknown shipgirl was Enterprise, North Carolina felt a hint of unreality.
"The commander's dossier coming from the Nine Major Factions does not record this person, so it is highly likely she is not a shipgirl of this world." Bunker Hill said calmly.
"Do you think it's possible that the recent changes in the world are related to her?" Baltimore said, struck by a sudden idea.
Her viewpoint, once voiced, gained North Carolina's agreement, "I feel it's highly possible; otherwise the world wouldn't have suddenly changed.
However, that Enterprise gives me a strange feeling; I always feel she is so real that I feel we are somewhat illusory."
"I don't know, I don't have that feeling, but to be fair, she is truly very powerful." Washington gazed at the distant Siren outpost still burning, speaking with full fighting spirit.
"So what should we do now, should we report to the commander, or……" Memphis said.
"Currently the radar shows the Siren warships have been cleared, the Siren outpost has been destroyed, but we do not know the detailed situation inside.
So I suggest we return to the Siren outpost to investigate the detailed situation, and only after confirming the situation should we report to the commander." Bunker Hill said.
Understood!
