Chapter 635: Despair

~6 min read 1,167 words

All fleets, set out toward the coordinates!

Upon Qin Ge's command, the ready fleet moved toward the first coordinate point previously reported by Bisimai. Naturally, Enterprise had already contacted North Carolina and would join the main force fleet during the march.

The coordinates Bisimai spoke of were not far from Qin Ge, and since three outposts had already been destroyed, there were no Siren mass-produced ships visible on the sea at this time, making the fleet's advance unusually smooth.

It took only two hours to reach the vicinity of the designated coordinates, yet here they discovered a Siren outpost.

When the Qin Ge Fleet approached, a large number of Siren ships suddenly surged out from the outpost.

However, having experienced so many battles, everyone was already very familiar with this new method of dealing with the Siren threat, so these Siren ships utterly failed to hinder the Qin Ge Fleet.

Furthermore, with the experience from the previous two times, the clearance of this Siren outpost proceeded exceptionally quickly.

The battle ended in less than an hour. Although the Executor's traces could not be found on radar, when approaching the core area, Qin Ge deployed all carrier shipgirls for successive bombardments.

They forced the Executor's trail into the open, and then the long-awaited battleship shipgirls unleashed a salvo that sent her to her doom on the spot, preventing a repeat of the previous situation.

Just when everyone thought the battle could be easily resolved, a figure appeared directly ahead of the fleet.

She had white hair, wore strange ship equipment on her back, and from that equipment protruded a rod from which a green lantern hung above her head. In her hand she also held a larger lamp, connected to her ship equipment by an iron chain.

"Heh, truly interesting. I was wondering why my several Executors lost contact—turns out a pack of mice ran in here." The white‑haired Siren said, her voice broadcasting directly on all communication channels.

At the same time, a pressure like a storm swept over the scene, rendering the shipgirls who were about to attack momentarily unable to move.

Even Qin Ge, far away, felt this terrifying pressure. His whole body turned icy; he could not move a finger, only stare wide‑eyed at what lay ahead.

"Heh." The white‑haired unknown Siren glanced at the shipgirls poised to attack on the sea surface, then turned her gaze to Qin Ge's command ship not far away.

"So you're the mastermind behind ordering them to attack here? Honestly, just participating in the experiment would have been fine—why do you have to go overboard? How should we punish you?"

The white‑haired unknown Siren said this offhandedly, but the icy tone made even Qin Ge break out in a cold sweat.

Such power—Qin Ge had neither seen nor heard of it before. A feeling of impending doom weighed on his heart; had he reached his limit?

Just then, a shipgirl broke free of her restraints and opened fire furiously toward where the white‑haired unknown Siren was.

The shells traced bright arcs in the sky, accurately striking at the unknown Siren.

But then a more despairing scene unfolded: the white‑haired unknown Siren lightly raised her hand, and with a wave, those shells vanished into thin air.

"Oh? Someone actually broke free of my control—it seems you've shed your imitation and become a true warship." The white‑haired unknown Siren showed no anger at the attack; instead she smiled toward the source of the fire, where New Jersey's gun barrel was smoking, clearly indicating the attack had come from her.

"Hmph, just who are you!" New Jersey said solemnly.

"Me? You don't need to know, because you're about to sink—knowing this would be pointless." The white‑haired unknown Siren said.

"I, however, do not think so."

At that moment, a voice rang out; a squadron of carrier aircraft appeared in the sky and rushed toward the white‑haired unknown Siren with lightning speed.

"Futile resistance." The white‑haired Siren shook her head, lifted the lamp in her left hand, and a mass of green flame burst forth, instantly engulfing the sky and wrapping around that squadron of carrier aircraft.

"Boom!"

A deafening explosion rang out; the green flame gradually faded in the sky, and along with it disappeared that squadron of carrier aircraft.

By this point, the overwhelming power of the white‑haired unknown Siren before them was indescribable; facing the attacks of New Jersey and Xinong, she effortlessly neutralized them, causing the hearts of the watching shipgirls to sink involuntarily.

"In the face of absolute power, all attacks are merely illusions. It seems you're no different—truly uninteresting. Then let's sink together with this trash to the seabed."

After the white‑haired Siren finished speaking, the gun turrets on her ship equipment began to move slowly—clearly she was preparing to go to war.

But just then, aside from New Jersey and Xinong, attacks also erupted from several other locations.

Monarch, Guanghui, Banrenma, Nengdai, Enterprise, Belfast, Weineituo, Lisailiu……

Every awakened shipgirl at that moment regained the ability to act; without any communication, upon recovery they immediately launched their own carrier aircraft and opened fire with maximum force.

"Oh? Interesting." The white‑haired Siren smiled, "If you want to play, I'll play along."

As she finished speaking, her main gun trained on New Jersey's direction and she opened fire violently; the shells, coated with green flame, streaked like meteors toward New Jersey.

New Jersey had remained vigilant; the instant she opened fire, she swiftly shifted her position to dodge those shells.

However, those shells were not as easy for New Jersey to avoid as she had thought; after they hit the water they detonated violently, and although she had moved relatively far away, the blast's shockwave still injured her.

At the same time, the attacks of several other shipgirls reached the vicinity of the white‑haired Siren, accompanied by deafening roars; gunfire and aerial bombs struck her accurately.

Towering columns of water erupted from beside the white‑haired unknown Siren, obscuring that stretch of sea.

"Did we hit her?" Monarch asked.

"I don't know." Enterprise said in a low voice, her eyes fixed on that spot.

Only saw the water droplets quickly fall; the white‑haired figure gradually emerged from the mist, with no trace of injury visible on her.

"Heh, what an interesting counterattack, though it doesn't look like much." The white‑haired Siren said, "But that's enough."

Her main gun barrel gleamed anew, as if a new round of bombardment were about to arrive.

At that moment, a figure suddenly appeared beside her, clinging to a bluish‑black ship equipment resembling a jellyfish, wearing a white sleep cap on her head and a black leather coat on her body.

She said to the white‑haired Siren, "The reaction at Key Point G has appeared; we should leave."

"Oh?" The white‑haired Siren glanced at the shipgirls before her, "Heh, looks like you're lucky today—see you next time, ants."

After saying that, the two rose directly into the air and departed from this sea area…
