Azur Lane: Isekai'd with Maxed-Out Port

"What is that pillar of light?"

"Oh my God, what is that in the sky? How can there be such a terrifying blue vortex?!"

The sight of this shocking blue pillar of light made everyone in Yalang City look up at the night sky, which had turned blue in disbelief.

"Lin Lan, what is this?"

Luo Tao arrived from the street with his three destroyer mothers at that moment.

Seeing the massive pillar of light, Luo Tao looked at Lin Lan in shock and asked, "What is going on?"

"Now that you are the highest authority in this city, you need to immediately go to the port area and sound the highest level of evacuation alarm!"

Upon hearing Luo Tao's voice, Lin Lan turned around and replied in a deep voice.

He understood that the arrival of high-ranking Sirens would inevitably bring a large fleet with them.

"Ming Muhan, the general agent of the Battleaxe Military Industry in Yalang City, has defected to the Sirens, and a large-scale fleet is about to attack!"

Luo Tao couldn't believe his ears.

"What supreme commander? What about Li Banan?"

"That guy has been killed by Ming Muhan. Do as I say now!"

Lin Lan's words made Luo Tao tremble.

The amount of information in Lin Lan's words was overwhelming.

However, Luo Tao quickly cleared his mind, took a few deep breaths, and forced himself to calm down.

"I understand. I'll head back to the port area now, sound the city-wide alarm, and issue a request for help to other cities."

Luo Tao was convinced by Lin Lan's words. 

After thinking for a moment, as if he had made a decision, he continued, 

"Li Banan's ship is moored in the port area. I will do my best to persuade them to follow my orders and assist us in resisting the Sirens."

After speaking, Luo Tao nodded to Lin Lan and immediately rushed to the port area of Yalang City with his three destroyer mothers.

Watching the backs of Luo Tao and the others, Lin Lan felt relieved that his classmates were making the right choice at this moment.

However, he deeply understood that it would be impossible to resist high-level Sirens with only those chess pieces.

At that time, Zeppelin and Brünhilde, who had completely destroyed the Battleaxe military industrial base, approached from the rear of the building.

Brünhilde had not intervened when she destroyed the Battleaxe Arsenal because there was no need for her to do so.

"A beacon for the high-ranking Sirens."

Zeppelin, walking to Lin Lan's side, looked up at the blue pillar of light and suddenly extended her hand, shaking it fiercely.

"Click!"

The pillar of light shattered instantly, but the blue vortex in the sky continued to spin.

"Commander, it looks like the city has been targeted by some high-ranking Sirens."

Brünhilde gazed at the destroyed pillar of light with a solemn expression. The blue vortex in the sky still did not dissipate. She looked at Lin Lan and said in a serious tone.

Upon hearing Brünhilde's words, Lin Lan gazed toward the ocean with a complicated look in his eyes.

At the same time, in the upper reaches of the river in Yalang City, dozens of black and yellow mass-produced Siren submarines slowly launched from the mud and sand beneath the riverbed.

However, amid the sediment stirred up by the mass-produced Siren submarines, seven or eight white-haired humanoid Siren girls with ponytails and goggles on their foreheads emerged.

With sinister smiles on their faces, they silently sailed out into the river in their shrimp-like black and yellow uniforms.

Siren Experimental Trap, Executor Series, Lurker Type I.

They were humanoid Sirens of the submarine category, possessing both greater attack power from their torpedoes and higher HP in their own armor than the production Siren submarines.

The boats on the river continued to move slowly under the night sky, completely unaware of the lurking threat beneath the surface.

Whether it was a yacht or a cruise ship, none of the radar equipment indicated the approach of the Sirens.

Just as the lurkers and Sirens were about to launch torpedoes at the live targets on the river, several objects with a white metallic sheen fell silently from above the water.

"Boom Boom!"

A massive explosion erupted underwater, and the powerful shockwave destroyed several mass-produced submarines in an instant.

These were depth charges, weapons designed to combat submarines.

Both the production-type and executor-type Sirens were cold killing machines without emotions.

When attacked, they immediately switched their target for the first strike.

A small, iron-blooded, silver-haired destroyer sped along the river, leaving a white wake behind.

Z46.

The explosion caused by the depth charge alerted all the boats on the river.

"All those who don't want to be sunk by Siren submarines, get out of here as fast as you can! This river is blocked tonight!"

As seven or eight black carrier-based planes flew across the river, a girl's voice echoed across the water.

The short-haired red-haired girl, Weser, was on the riverbank, controlling the carrier-based aircraft to scatter the boats on the river.

"What's going on? How can there be no Sirens on the radar at all? How can the Sirens appear in the river?"

"Exactly! Is it really true that the port area by the sea in Yalang City is safe?"

Some ship personnel, upon hearing about the Siren submarines, were skeptical about the presence of Sirens in the river.

However, when several ships suddenly erupted in violent explosions of light, the pilots immediately fled at full speed without hesitation.

"Leonie, how many Siren submarines are there? Can they handle it?"

Weser called out as she watched Z46 moving rapidly on the river, using the Iron Shark outfit to drop depth charges into the water.

"No problem! They're just a bunch of Type I Sirens and lurkers. I can take care of them."

The stoic little girl Z46 replied in an indifferent tone.

She skillfully maneuvered the ship, drawing graceful curves on the river.

Behind her, the torpedoed Siren submarines could not catch up and were destroyed by the depth charges.

"That's good."

Weser felt relieved by Z46's strength.

The commander had arranged for the two of them to come here in advance, which turned out to be the right choice.

However, she couldn't shake off the worry: was the commander really okay without them?

Weser looked anxiously in the direction of Yalang City. The swirling blue vortex in the sky made her heart uneasy.

With only Zeppelin and Brünhilde, it would be challenging to fight against the high-ranking Sirens.

Surely, they should have dealt with the submarines here faster and returned to assist the commander.

While Weser controlled the carrier-based aircraft to sink several Siren submarines that had surfaced, her anxiety grew.

The effectiveness of her and Z46's anti-submarine tactics was simply too slow.

She wasn't equipped with anti-submarine aircraft and couldn't directly attack submarines still submerged beneath the river.

However, glancing at the beacon of the high-ranking Sirens in the distance, Weser felt an urge to return to the commander immediately.

She really couldn't understand why Lin Lan would have her protect these ordinary ships.

"Commander, you should prioritize your safety!"

Weser looked at the lurking Sirens surfacing and directed the carrier-based aircraft to continuously attack them, her anxiety escalating.

"Leonie, you should return to the port area now and request help from the Ulrich. Leave this to me!"

After destroying two more lurkers, Weser finally decided to disobey Lin Lan's orders and gave a loud command to Z46.

She couldn't stand by while the commander was in danger.

Z46 received her order without a word, but by steering the ship toward Minato, she showed that her thoughts aligned with Weser's.

The commander must not be put in danger and must return to port immediately to ask for assistance.

At that moment, a noisy voice suddenly came from Weser's communicator.

"Hey, hey, hey? My dear fourth sister, can you hear me? Uh-huh~"

Hearing the familiar raunchy tone of the maiden in the communicator, Weser's heart trembled.
