Azur Lane: I Crossed the Graduation Port Area

Chapter 649 Redemption and Futility

"Meta...what exactly is it?"

"Meta energy, the Demon King's Army, and the Invisible Breath... No, they should all be called mysterious enemy X now. What's the relationship?"

This discomfort did not cause any real harm to Lin Lan, but he found that there was probably some kind of connection between the two, which made him feel even more chilly on the back.

Looking at the terrifying sight in the black sky, Lin Lan also recalled how he felt when he was in the Iron-Blooded camp and smashed meta crystals for the mecha girl Shattering the Sky every day.

After the meta barrier was broken, could the negative emotions that briefly surged from his heart be the essence of meta energy?
For some reason, Lin Lan came up with such a guess.

"I believe in you, assistant, you will be able to achieve...the children...salvation..."

Suddenly, an intermittent strange female voice sounded faintly in Lin Lan's mind, causing him to suddenly withdraw his gaze from the air and look around.

But in the direction he looked, he found nothing except the rocks and trees on Xueyingdao Mountain.

"Commander, what are you looking for?"

Shinano noticed his movements and asked curiously.

Just when Lin Lan wondered whether the sound was his imagination and was about to explain to Shinano.

The next second, a majestic voice full of madness, anger, and unwillingness suddenly exploded from the sky:

【This is in vain——】

【This is in vain——】

【this is……】

This sound in the sky attracted the attention of everyone, including Nagato.

But it seemed to only repeat this sentence, and like an echo, the sound gradually became smaller each time it echoed.

Finally, as the black aura raging in the air slowly became illusory and transparent, the voice completely disappeared, and the bright sunshine finally fell on everyone again.

The feeling of depression and discomfort that made Lin Lan feel before also disappeared as the black aura in the sky dissipated.

Compared to the unfamiliar voice before, Lin Lan knew better who the owner of this voice with its own echo effects was.

The boss that was once active in the game was the Invisible Breath X Penumbra that could transform into a black behemoth.

"What, you have a temper and come down to fight! What's the point of thundering without rain?"

But before Lin Lan could recover from the voice of the invisible breath, the sharp blue Odachi sword in his hand had already been unsheathed. Bailong, who had already summoned the ship, pointed the sword at the sky and shouted angrily.

She was already prepared to fight against a powerful enemy, but this was what happened to her?
This generous aircraft carrier girl, whose hands were itchy and eager to fight, felt that all her strength was useless.

"Nagato, has the will of disaster really been resolved within the Yushenmu barrier? That was just now..."

Mikasa ignored Hakuryuu, but quickly walked to Nagato who was waiting for them in front, and stepped forward anxiously to ask.

When Nagato faced Mikasa's inquiry, his tone was a little uncertain:
"That's what the great sage told me before the New Year Festival. I didn't expect that the will of disaster has not been completely resolved yet..."

Lin Lan and Shinano, who also unfolded their ship uniforms and were surrounded by dark blue butterflies, walked to Nagato.

He saw that neither Mikasa nor Nagato mentioned the sound he heard at first, and he was already convinced that the intermittent sound before the echo of Invisible Breath x Penumbra was probably only heard by him.

But who is the owner of that voice?

Although it was obviously the first time he heard that voice, why did he always feel that he should be extremely familiar with the owner of that voice?
The title assistant... He remembered that Dr. Anjie, who created the Mind Cube, only called the player this way in the story of the directional folding event.Could it be that Anjie appeared just now?

However, before Lin Lan could think about it, a tall figure with white hair, accompanied by seven or eight blue crystal butterflies, walked out of the shrine where the incomplete sacred tree was located.

It was the great sage Shigesakura with an air of immortality. He was wearing a white and purple high-cut robe, holding a slender dada sword scabbard in one hand, and Unzen with a gentle smile on his face.

"Commander, everyone, I'm sorry for frightening you."

Yun Xian came to the crowd and after speaking, his eyes were on Lin Lan.

"What you just saw was the remnant of the Will of Disaster that was cut off from its roots by me. It won't appear in a short time."

"In a short period of time? Hasn't the breath been completely cut off by you? Shouldn't it be reborn again?"

After Lin Lan heard Yunxian's words, he immediately caught the key point of the question and asked in shock.

Nagato looked at Unzen, whose butterflies were fluttering beside him along with Shinano's butterflies, and asked with the same puzzlement:
"What the commander said is absolutely true. The will of disaster in Hairuo Stone has been cut off by you yourself. Why are the fragments of his will reborn in the barrier of the Godly Tree?"

Facing the questions raised by the two people, Yun Xian still looked at Lin Lan with his profound eyes, smiled softly, and explained:
"Before answering this question, I would like to ask the commander and everyone to enter the courtyard with me."

Lin Lan nodded. Based on what Yun Xian had conveyed to Nagato before, he had already guessed that this matter was probably related to the Demon King.

It seems that the Purifier really gave him a big gift.

After calling Hakuryu who still wanted to fight the invisible breath, Lin Lan and others followed Yun Xian into the shrine.

And at a glance, he saw Musashi unfolding his ship uniform, and the green-haired little profiteer Akashi standing next to Musashi with a look of despair.

In addition, in front of them, a ferocious-looking white-haired girl with a pair of terrifying bone wings on her back was lying on the ground with her eyes closed and her face covered in pain.

It was the demon king who was delivered to him by the Purifier yesterday.

However, at this time, the Siren facility that had imprisoned him was no longer around the Demon King's body. Instead, there were layers of barriers surrounded by mysterious patterns in the space.

Not sure if it was Lin Lan's illusion, but he felt that the black scales and bone armor on the Demon King's body now covered a wider area than yesterday.

He even felt that this girl was transforming into a monster.

"Wow! Commander, you are finally here, meow! What kind of monster did you give me yesterday? It was so scary, meow!"

As soon as Akashi saw Lin Lan entering the shrine courtyard, he immediately ran up from the ground with a mournful face, flew into his arms and cried to him.

"I didn't expect this to happen. It's my fault. Be good, Akashi. It's okay."

Lin Lan stroked Akashi's little head and comforted him softly.

Musashi also walked up. After the big fox girl looked at each other with her sister Shinano, she looked at Lin Lan and showed a guilty smile:

"Commander, I'm really sorry that I couldn't attend today's New Year's Festival."

Lin Lan held Akashi in his arms and stroked him. After hearing Musashi's words, he raised his head and looked at Musashi and said without hesitation:

"I didn't expect that after the Demon King was sent in, it would cause such a serious situation. For now, let's explain to us what happened after the Demon King was sent in."

Through Yun Xian and Musashi's explanations, and Akashi's supplements, Lin Lan, Nagato and others quickly understood the causes and consequences of the resurrection of the invisible breath of will fragments.
