Azur Lane: I Crossed the Graduation Port Area

Chapter 628 Chongying, Hairuo, Invisible Breath (2700 words)
The white fallen leaves are like cherry blossom petals, blowing in the night wind on the island, like Oran winter snowflakes, bringing a beautiful atmosphere.

But Lin Lan, who was in Musashi's arms, had no time to appreciate the beautiful scenery.

He was still immersed in Musashi's explanation just now, recalling the introduction of Nagato in the game.

As a powerful battleship girl, this cute fox-eared lolita once shouldered a heavy responsibility, which was to gather the souls of the dead and the power of faith in the Great Sacred Tree through the so-called ritual.

Because of this, Nagato, who was the flagship of Shenzi and Shigesakura, was used by the ambitious Akagi at that time.

But when he thought about this, he thought of the great sage of Chongzakura, or the heavy cruiser girl Unzen who was embodied by the heart of Hairuo.

Umiwako is a magical meteorite once owned by the Shige Sakura camp. It has magical abilities like a Rubik's Cube. Nagato can directly go through the ceremony and use the power of faith collected from the God Tree to create a Kanji.

It sounds wonderful, but Hai Ruo is a double-edged sword.

Because in addition to being able to swallow the power of faith to create a ship girl, this creation actually also has a strange giant beast called the invisible "breath" sealed inside.

As the great sage Unzen who was incarnated by the heart of Kai Waka, the concept of ship girl Unzen had not yet been formed at that time.

With the help of Nagato, she has always been hiding in the inner barrier of the Omit Sacred Tree. She relies on the power of faith gathered from the Omit Sacred Tree to maintain the barrier that seals the breath.

It's just that this seal, just like how the brave Yuki sealed the Demon King's army thousands of years ago, will eventually be broken through.

After all, Xi is inextricably linked to the mysterious enemy X.

Although the game official did not say that Xi was the mysterious enemy X, Lin Lan remembered that in the game's Sakura Sakura event, the name of the black monster boss transformed by Xi was "X Penumbra".

In short, in order to solve the threat posed by the breath, the great sage finally obtained the ship suit with the help of Nagato and Musashi, officially transformed into the ship girl Unzen, and completely defeated the breath of Kai Ruonei.

From then on, Hai Ruo became just an ordinary stone.

In addition, the Chongsakura ship girls joined his port area and discovered that as the commander, he could directly build new ship girls using the Mind Cube, so there was no need to continue to use the Godly Tree to gather the power of faith to sacrifice to Hairuo. .

As a result, Nagato was able to live the same happy life that normal ship girls had dreamed of.

As long as the commander is here, the Son of God will no longer have to be troubled by those responsibilities.

But when he recalled this, Lin Lan remembered a problem that had been bothering him from the original plot of the game until now.

That's because he remembered that the plot of that event mentioned that the reason why Unzen, the heart of Kai Waka, was able to finally cut off her connection with Kai Waka and become a real ship girl was precisely because she wanted to be with the commander again. The official met him.

But in the game plot before that event, there was no mention of when he met Unzen.

It can only be said that the plot of The Riddler is worthy of being a yellow chicken, but it still adheres to the principle of making people scratch their heads.

"Commander, the barrier set up by the Great Sage is ahead. Wait a moment and I will open the entrance immediately."

At this time, Musashi's words interrupted Lin Lan's memories.

Only then did Lin Lan realize that he and Musashi had already walked through the woods and arrived at a rugged path leading into the mountain during the short period of time when he was distracted by his memories.

After he was put down from the arms of Musashi who had stopped walking, he moved his body, which was a little sore from the strong wind pressure, while taking stock of the environment in front of the two of them.

In front of him was a naturally formed mountain on the island.

Looking up from the foot of the mountain, the top of this mountain is even a natural mountain that passes through the clouds, which is far more majestic than the artificial hills on the Xinyang artificial island.

He looked at the entrance to this winding mountain road. In addition to a few clusters of bushes with white flowers in full bloom, there was also a white giant rock more than three meters high on each side of the road.

Red hemp ropes with paper charms are wrapped around the two huge rocks and connected, as if to declare that this road up the mountain is not for anyone to enter.

Musashi walked slowly to the red rope in front of the mountain road and closed his eyes.

Lin Lan watched as several white light spots emerged from the paper charms on the hemp rope and gradually separated, condensing into a mysterious octagonal formation in front of Musashi.

As Musashi raised his hands, the surroundings of the octagonal formation were like waves, with layers of white light patterns spreading silently in the air, as if a stone was dropped on the water.

The Secret Technique of Heavy Sakura.

Seeing this spectacular scene, Lin Lan instantly remembered this word.

This is not like a holy realm barrier created by mirror technology, but a real and mysterious barrier born from the secret technique of Sakura.Musashi did not let him wait for too long, and soon, everything returned to nothingness.

"Huh, Commander, the entrance to the barrier has been opened, but there are some things that happened today that I think I need to discuss with the Commander first."

The purple-haired fox lady turned around, stretched out her hand to Lin Lan and said.

Lin Lan could probably guess that Musashi wanted to discuss today's Demon King's Army with him, so he took Musashi's warm hand and the two of them walked side by side along the mountain road into the mountain.

The fresh cool mountain breeze blew in their faces, and the bright stars and bright moon in the sky provided enough illumination for the two of them.

"This should be inside Xueying Island, but apart from the pier on the seaside, I didn't see your temporary port area or anyone else along the way. Is the temporary port area on the mountain?"

Lin Lan took the lead in opening the topic, but Musashi just smiled softly and answered for him:
"Hahaha, it is naturally impossible to choose a temporary port area on a mountain. In order to save time, I just took you to take a shortcut in the dense forest. The temporary port area where everyone lives on weekdays is next to the river on the island."

Okay, Lin Lan thought about it and realized the same thing.

The entire mountain is probably blocked by the barrier just now. It would be too cumbersome to do it like that every time when going down the mountain.

Moreover, setting up the temporary port area on a mountain will seriously affect the ship girls' ability to transport supplies or conduct operations.

"We don't need to go to the top of the mountain. The location where the sacred tree was planted by the great sage is at the shrine on the mountainside. We will arrive soon."

Musashi's voice sounded again. The purple-haired fox girl first explained the location of the destination to him, and then suddenly changed the subject and asked him:

"But Commander, do you...do you remember what was originally suppressed in the Yushenmu barrier?"

This battleship girl with a prominent status in the Chongying camp held Lin Lan's hand, turned her head, and looked at Lin Lan with deep meaning in her golden eyes that shone dimly in the night.

Her tone was different from her usual calmness, but slightly serious.

Lin Lan understood that Musashi was getting straight to the point.

So he nodded and said the answer directly:
"Invisible Breath."

After he said the name, he felt a slight force on Musashi's hand for a moment.

However, Musashi was not surprised that he knew the answer. He looked at Lin Lan's face intently and continued with some emotion:
"Exactly, most people in Chongying, including Akagi, have never known about the connection between Xi and Hairuo."

"Since you do know what happened in the Great God Tree Sanctuary at that time... it will be easy to explain to you what happened today."

Musashi had long known that Lin Lan had been in a world called Blue Star and had contact with them through the port area established in the game.

But for them, this is not the point.

After all, the commander's sincerity towards them and their love for the commander cannot be faked.

After feeling this, Musashi's tone returned to seriousness again:

"Actually, we, Shige Sakura, have already applied Umiwa's counterfeiting technology to ship equipment, especially the new scientific research ship equipment of my sister Shinano, Hakuryuu, and Shimanto."

When Musashi said this, he paused for a moment and said seriously to Lin Lan:

"Today, Siren showed us the Demon King's Army monsters used for experiments. Although the black substance on their bodies is different from the breath of breath, I can be sure that both have the same origin."

"If you are a companion from other camps, even if you look at the Demon King's army's materials from a distance, your mind and body will inevitably be negatively affected to a certain extent."

"The reason why others did not feel any discomfort today is precisely because our Chong Ying's ship equipment is all equipped with a new generation of improvements obtained from Hairuo to resist the negative effects of the Invisible Breath."

After hearing what Musashi said, Lin Lan's steps slowed down unconsciously.

He really didn't know before that the ship uniforms of the girls on the Chongsakura ship actually had this unique effect.

But he suddenly remembered in the next second that in the game's "Fool's Balance" event plot, the ship girls of each camp were indeed affected by the pseudo-god with the aura of a mysterious enemy and could not move.

Among the ship girls from each camp present, including Ember's meta ship girls, except for him as the commander, the only one who was not affected was Shinano from the Shige Sakura camp.
