Azur Lane: I Crossed the Graduation Port Area

Chapter 1357: The Brave and Resolute Sailing Ship Girls
Due to the loss of the floating fleet, it takes more than ten minutes to reach the west city of the imperial city.

On the way, Lin Lan asked Miss D and Nakhimov to try many times to find the batch of floating warships that disappeared inexplicably.

But the answer he got was that this group of floating warships undoubtedly no longer existed in the world slice.

Fortunately, even without floating battleships, the girls have enough mass-produced battleships to release in their ship storage space.

At the same time, he also learned from Scharnhorst meta that Wichita meta was currently serving as the general commanding the troops in the inner city in this world slice.

What made him feel even more coincidental was that in the imperial city within the world slice, there would be an operation tonight to purge the evil emperor.

If Scharnhorst meta and Wichita meta had not met them, according to their distorted identities, they would have become part of the force protecting the Evil King tonight.

"The evil king in the world slice... That guy is probably the entity created by the power of the fifth-category threat of Natlan, used to break the seal of the God-killing Curse."

The information provided by Scharnhorst meta allowed Lin Lan to quickly analyze this possibility.

No wonder Natlan troops and monks were seen rushing to the inner city of the imperial city on the streets from time to time.

According to the original history of Natlan, the evil king who was twisted and corrupted by the Type V threat will be assassinated tonight by Yan Tiansi, together with the demon clan and major sects in Zhongzhou in the inner city of the imperial city in the name of clearing the court.

If the purge of the emperor in the world slice fails and the world slice overlaps with the real other world, the Type V threat that breaks the seal will be equivalent to starting to corrupt the other world a hundred years in advance.

Manipulating the timeline and interfering with cognition is also a means of high-dimensional invasion.

After explaining this reasoning to the girls, Lin Lan ordered Princeton Meta to release carrier-based aircraft to conduct real-time reconnaissance of the inner city of the imperial city.

He also arranged for Volga and Nakhimov's carrier-based aircraft to fly low over the city to search for traces of Eldridge and Akashi.

"Wait until I awaken the minds of the royal treasures and immediately move closer to the inner city of the imperial city."

He spoke seriously to the ship girls, then looked at the explorer, and after a moment's silence, he added:

"Explorer, synchronize all the data of the most popular old shops in Zhongzhou Imperial City a hundred years ago recorded in Antiks's offline database to Volga and Nakhimov.

"These places are definitely the easiest to find Akashi, and Eldridge will most likely stay with Akashi."

The explorer nodded obediently to him and immediately did as he was told.

Since the radar system and various instruments are ineffective in this slice of the world, Lang Yuexi and Bai Qixue also volunteered to use their spiritual sense to help search for Mingshi and Eldridge.

At this time, the distant sky has turned orange, indicating that it is approaching dusk.

Thanks to Scharnhorst's meta identity, even though the Natlan people and Royal Guards on the street looked at them in surprise for wearing different styles of attire, no one dared to stop them.

The President of the Royal Guards personally led the way, which was much more useful than a certificate of identity.

"Teacher! The execution is about to begin!"

But just when Lin Lan could see the crowd watching the execution ground from afar, the reminder from the good man Richard made him raise his eyebrows.

"Commander, I can turn into a bat and rush over to stop the execution!"

The slender vampire girl from the Northern Alliance battleship Sevastopol spoke to him anxiously, but he shook his head.

"No need, this distance... is enough."

In order to help the ship girls awaken their minds, it is not necessary for him to actually be by their side.

Even though they were hundreds of meters apart, as long as he had sight within range, he was sure that his ship girls would be aware of his arrival and awaken their minds.

At this time, he could see through the crowd that Royal Fortune and several pirate sailing ship girls were pressed onto the towering gallows by Saint Martin. Compared to the purple-haired twin-tailed girl Gary Adventure who looked like she was going to kill or chop casually, poor Captain Vida was already crying and yelling something at Royal Fortune who kept looking around.

However, Golden Deer and Mary both had calm and composed smiles on their faces. Not only were they not afraid at all, they were even interested in waving and greeting the Natlan people below.

"Ok?"

Just when Lin Lan was about to remotely help several sailing ship girls awaken their minds, he frowned and let out a light exclamation.

"Commander! If you don't take action now, the Hurricane Pirates will be wiped out by Saint Martin!"

Seeing that he was hesitant to take action, Fushun and Huoli on the side urged him anxiously.

"I feel like there's no need for me to take action. Royal Fortune and Saint Martin... their perceptions haven't been distorted at all.

"These Hurricane Pirates are working together with San Martin to put on a show."

Hearing him say this, even the Scharnhorst meta turned around suddenly with an expression of disbelief on his face.

As if to confirm his smiling words, the situation at the execution ground changed instantly the next second.

"Meahahaha! How can our Hurricane Sea...River Pirates be caught so easily?"

Along with Royal Wealth's extremely arrogant laughter, in full view of everyone, the energetic red-eyed chestnut-haired girl broke free from the chains in her hands.

Golden Deer and Mary also easily broke free from the chains, and together with Gary and Vida, they held Saint Martin, whose face was filled with surprise.

This sudden change made the monks and royal guards who wanted to use their skills to drive spiritual weapons around them stunned. As if they were afraid of hurting the hostages, they came into a standoff with the four "River Pirate" girls.

The Natlan people who were watching the show were frightened and dispersed, as if they were afraid of being affected.

"Calm down! Don't let them hurt the Sea Patrol!"

Several imperial officials in charge of guarding the execution ground eagerly signaled their subordinates to curb their desire to attack, as if they wanted to negotiate with Royal Fortune, who had a smug smile on his face.

But Royal Wealth proudly pinched the cheek of his wheat-colored sail companion, whose arms were controlled by Mary and the Golden Deer, cooperating in the play and with a frustrated expression on his face, and laughed:
"I see you are sensible. Tell the captain to tell the commander of your Royal Guards and the general of the inner city that if they want to rescue this patrol guard, they should come to the outskirts of the city alone tonight..."

After hearing this, Lin Lan and the other girls at the back of the crowd finally understood what the show performed by the sailing ship girls meant.

“Comrade Commander, it seems that Royal Fortune and the others want to lure out two meta companions separately and help them remove the cognitive modification.

"With a large number of Royal Guards and Extreme Brothers protecting us, it is difficult for Comrade Fengfan to easily approach the distorted meta of Scharnhorst and Wichita."

The Soviet Alliance spoke in a firm tone, and Lin Lan secretly praised Royal Wealth for their brave and resourceful plan.

As expected of his Hurricane Pirates, they were able to accomplish such a feat in a slice of the world with distorted cognition, and even had the energy to help other companions escape danger.

But he still couldn't understand why the perception of the sailing ship girls was not distorted.

Could it be that the sailing ship girls who joined his port from the city-state world have some degree of resistance to the memetic contamination of Class V threats?
Seeing that the ghost ship Mary had begun to use the power of shadow to evacuate, he had no time to think about it.

It would be better to pass the news of their arrival to the Hurricane Ship Girls first.

"Sensitive, quickly use the fleet channel to tell them..."

"Om-"

Just as he was about to let Lingmin use the fleet channel to contact Royal Wealth and the others, something unexpected happened.
