~6 min read 1,057 words

"The Sirens' movements slowed down; don't miss this opportunity, full speed ahead!"

The keen English King George V noticed the testers' laxity, and therefore ordered the Royal Fleet to advance bravely.

But this attack was exactly to the Testers' liking; "Very good, the energy level is still rising… Come, vent your anger to your heart's content!"

The Royal Fleet kept attacking Bisimai and the heat dissipation; shells and torpedoes, the machine's water columns shot up into the sky, and the falling water columns, upon encountering a huge energy flow, were instantly vaporized into water vapor, the whole battlefield gradually shrouded in white mist.

"Suddenly an unknown weather phenomenon appeared nearby! This white mist not only affects optical imaging, but also the carrier aircraft's vision…… Currently we cannot observe Bisimai!" reported Royal Ark.

The Tester also looked toward Bisimai's direction: "The history of human evolution and development… is the history of technology and learning; for the sake of learning, any sacrifice is worthwhile……"

Not far away, King George V suddenly felt a sense of oppression: "This ominous premonition……"

Having no time to think further, she immediately ordered via the communicator: "Everyone! Emergency evasion!"

Boom!

A strong beam pierced the water mist, carving a huge airflow tunnel; the massive beam instantly penetrated George V's armor zone, leaving a huge cavern.

King George V's eyes were icy, coldly staring at the direction the beam came from: "Bisimai, what exactly are you…… All hands, maintain first‑level combat readiness!"

After the mist cleared, Bisimai gradually appeared in everyone's view, her whole body surrounded by a black‑tinged red light, emitting an ominous aura, while the Tester had already vanished.

"Someone once said there is no god in this world; if there were, I could not bear not being that god. Therefore, there is no god in this world!" Bisimai looked at the Royal personnel, a flicker of madness appearing in her eyes.

"Finally showing your true form, Iron Blood battleship!" King George V's eyes icy: "There was a moment I thought you had a warrior's honor, but it seems I was overthinking. The Royal Fleet never fears defeat or death, yet you abandoned the dignity of a battleship at the end; whether you claim to be a god or the sun, we will utterly crush you and your plot!"

The battle between the two sides intensified; the Sirens mass‑produced units previously summoned by the Tester now seemed mere accompaniment—this was a fated showdown, also an awakening showdown.

"We have finally reached point‑blank range; you used this weapon to defeat Hood back then, am I wrong about this distance, Bisimai?" King George V's figure stopped not far from Bisimai.

Although she wanted to say something, she couldn't find the words, so Bisimai chose silence.

"Then we will defeat you at this range, defeat you, this fanatic who has lost honor!"

"Honor…? I……"

"Royal Fleet, engage any enemy! Fire!"

King George V's order interrupted Bisimai's words; fierce artillery fire came, making her resistance look so feeble.

At that moment, the black aura around Bisimai intensified, making her involuntarily scream.

As the huge beam converged, countless Siren vessels were sucked in and ground to powder; the sight left the Royal personnel dumbfounded, but a more dangerous situation arose.

"Careful, Bisimai is aiming at the fleet's center!" Royal Ark said anxiously.

"We can't dodge it… All hands, prepare for the second impact!" King George V immediately judged.

Boom!

Following the explosion, the Royal personnel suffered no harm. As King George V wondered, he noticed that after energy gathered around Bisimai, a massive blast interrupted everything, simultaneously destroying most of Bisimai's ship equipment.

"Ha… ha… Is this, is this… your limit!?"

" she said, raising her head toward the distance with a hint of struggle."

The Tester, who had previously disappeared, reappeared, looking at Bisimai: "You actually destroyed your own main gun… Hmm, as expected, you still couldn't perfectly fuse with the Cube…"

"Heh, I never thought… even a will I deemed firm enough… could be completely corroded by this power for a moment." Bisimai said with some lingering fear, though more so a sense of relief.

"Report log: Test No. 151 results—this is the target's active disengagement from the activated state under the Elemental Magic Cube's influence; we can preliminarily infer potential to become a key point, but overall performance did not meet the target's tolerance value……" the Tester faithfully recorded.

"Sirens, I don't know what scheme you're plotting, but this honor alone must not be tarnished by you!" After saying this, Bisimai turned her gaze toward the Royal side.

"Royal Fleet warriors, although we have years of grudges…… but it's a pity I cannot fall into your hands like this; the fate of Iron Blood shall be grasped by myself! EisenundBlutuberalles!"

Bisimai's last main gun fired its final shell toward the Royal Fleet's direction; since the ranging equipment was completely destroyed, the shell deviated from its trajectory, exploding in a spray of water near far away.

"Even though you can no longer aim properly, you still choose to counter‑attack—why be so obstinate…" Victory muttered, looking at Bisimai not far away.

But King George V no longer had that earlier iciness; her expression grave: "I withdraw my previous opinion of you; if this is your final choice, we will send you off with gunfire!"

All Royal Fleet personnel, concentrate final firepower, target Bisimai!

"

"Boom!

!"

As the final shell fell, the place where Bisimai stood became a sea of fire. She clutched tightly the Iron Blood flag in her hand, already battered beyond repair in the battle, yet even facing such tremendous gunfire she remained standing, refusing to fall.

"Still unable to fulfill… our long‑held wish… a navy capable of returning to the open sea… dignified……

"iron discipline… and blood's glory; at least to the end, an Iron Blood battleship could still choose to face its own fate…

"You once said music can always arouse two utterly different feelings in the heart—one is war, the other is pastoral tranquility. Indeed, I finally can feel the tranquil side……

"Sorry, my sister… even in the end I still hoped to walk side by side with you……

These heartfelt voices, like whispers beside the ear, quietly reached Bisimai's heart. She had calmly watched everything from beginning to end, feeling the sorrow and perseverance she had never possessed.

"Really, amazing!"
