With the final core of Neloy being defeated, the battle came to an end. But I have to admit that Neloy's final crazy attack did cause some trouble.

First, the allied forces suffered heavy losses, and only about half of the troops survived. Although the witches survived, many of them temporarily or permanently lost their magic power due to the long and intense battles, and as a result, they either had to go back to recuperate temporarily or retire.

As for the tank team commanded by Nishizumi Miho, they were relatively well-preserved, but they had consumed a lot of energy due to the long battle and needed a good rest. Of course, Fang Zheng also made an appointment with them that after he dealt with the trouble here, he would take them to Semlia. After all, that was where the girls had fought, so it was not surprising that they wanted to go and take a look.

Even the Azure Fleet consumed a lot of energy. After all, the ship girls are not perpetual motion machines and they also need to eat...

Fang Zheng had no solution for this and could only let them leave the Earth temporarily and find an asteroid belt to chew on.

Of course, it would be great if the Ishimura was here. The role of the Ishimura in the Blue Fleet is basically equivalent to that of a chef. Generally, if it is here, it will find a lifeless planet, disintegrate it, cut it up and cook it, and then make it into nanomaterials that the ship girls like as food.

Unfortunately, the Ishimura did not come along this time, so everyone had to fend for themselves and go to the asteroid belt to find ingredients for cooking.

As for the 501st Regiment, they were also appointed by the headquarters as before. The witches who stayed as representatives were Sanya V. Litvyak and Ella Ilmatar Utilainen. This was also Fang Zheng's request. The reason was very simple. Whether it was a belt or a skirt, Sanya was the only one among all the witches who wore clothes properly. As for Ella, although she did not wear a skirt like Sanya, because the hem of her clothes was very long, it could be regarded as a one-piece dress.

In other words, at least the clothes these two people are wearing would not be indecent on a warship.

As for the others... the girls said they really couldn't stand that style of dressing and it was embarrassing to look at it.

Of course, there were some who wanted to stay voluntarily, for example, Lieutenant Francesca Luchini volunteered to stay on the battleship, but after Fang Zheng heard that she was from Italy, he politely but firmly sent her away.

Our temple is small and cannot accommodate the kind of people you are interested in.

Although the Blue Fleet had found a temporary base on this planet after this battle, this battle also taught Fang Zheng a profound lesson. It was obvious that with the Blue Fleet's insufficient numbers and him unable to transform back into a dragon, it would be a waste of time to continue pushing forward like before, and the gains would not outweigh the losses.

So Fang Zheng changed his battle plan again. He used destroyers to form several reconnaissance teams and began to conduct detailed and careful reconnaissance of other blocks. Not only did he need to find out the situation of that block, but he also needed to investigate the movements of the enemies that block faced.

In addition to the ship girls, the reconnaissance team also includes Lala, Nana, Mengmeng, Kurosaki Meiya, Eve, and Xiao An. There are also Valkyries such as Kiana and the mecha troops led by Xing Baixian. In addition, the two witches also joined their respective reconnaissance teams and began reconnaissance activities in various sectors.

As for Tesla and Einstein, as well as Cang Xuan, Dan Zhu, Mei Gan and other people who have little combat power, they still stayed in this sector to collect information from all sides. If any sector needs help, they will notify Fang Zheng, who will then go in to deal with it and consider calling in a large force depending on the situation...

As for Fang Zheng...of course he also went to other sectors to carry out reconnaissance missions.

but……

"This plate seems to be even more backward than the previous one."

Walking on the street, Fang Zheng couldn't help but sigh. The reason why he chose this section for investigation was very simple - it was the result of Fang Zheng's prophecy spell, which said "If you come to this section, you will encounter something related to yourself", so Fang Zheng came here to investigate.

However, the technological level of this place seems to be even more backward than before. It can be seen from the vehicles running on the streets that the vehicles here are all low-bodied, like a rectangular box with four wheels, and a convertible without a roof. This primitive vehicle should be the earliest... probably a product of the First World War.

But then again…

As he was thinking, Fang Zheng took out the map at hand, which he had just picked up at the newsstand. It was a map of this city.

"I'm not unfamiliar with this place..."

Looking at the words "Arkham City Map" above and the "Mistokal University" logo in front of him, Fang Zheng couldn't help but complain.

He still remembered that in the Cthulhu world, he lived in Arkham City for a period of time.

However, the Arkham here is obviously not the same place as the Arkham where he lived before.

But none of the FBI slush funds are real.

Are they going to rob the Federal Reserve again?

Fang Zheng put down the map and looked left and right. It was already late at night, and except for the occasional car passing by, there was dead silence. Coupled with the thick fog, if it wasn't for Arkham, Fang Zheng would have felt like he had come to London to watch Jack the Ripper perform live.

"Bang!!"

Just as Fang Zheng was thinking this, the glass not far in front of him suddenly shattered. Then, a petite figure jumped out and fell towards Fang Zheng.

“Get out of the way! Get out of the way!!”

If this was the opening of a love game or harem animation, the protagonist would definitely be knocked to the ground by the girl who fell from the sky, and he might even get to see her eating fat as a bonus. However, Fang Zheng had long passed this stage, so when faced with the girl who fell from the sky, he skillfully opened his arms and hugged her like a princess.

"Phew...thank you."

The girl was also startled when it fell into Fang Zheng's hands, but she soon breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly thanked him. This was a petite girl, who looked about the same age as Illya and the others. She had long dark purple hair with red ropes wrapped around it. The girl was wearing a white dress, white socks and little red leather shoes on her feet. She looked quite pretty and cute.

"Are you okay? Why did you jump from such a high place?"

Fang Zheng put the girl on the ground and asked. The girl frowned and was about to speak...

“Bang, bang, bang!!”

Suddenly, a dazzling light appeared, shining on Fang Zheng and the girl. Fang Zheng turned around and saw that several cars were blocking their way not far away, with their headlights on. Next to the cars, a masked man wearing a black wide-brimmed hat, a black suit, holding a Thompson, was aiming at them.

What's going on? A gang fight?

Seeing this scene, Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment, while the girl looked solemn. At the same time, the masked gangsters also raised their guns, pointed them at the two people, and then pulled the trigger.

“Bang bang bang bang!!!!”

A series of gunshots rang out, instantly breaking the silence of the street. After a while, the gunshots stopped again. But at this moment, the masked men in suits holding Thompsons all took a step back. In front of them, a solid ice wall stood there, blocking the previous attack.

Then, the ice wall suddenly collapsed, and soon after, a voice was heard.

"I'm telling you, it's not a good idea for you to just come up and shoot without saying anything."

Fang Zheng held Frostmourne in his hand and stared at everyone coldly. Seeing that he was unharmed, the masked and suited men immediately began to reload their bullets, planning to launch another attack.

At the same time, Fang Zheng also clenched Frostmourne and swung it forward.

"roll!!"

The next moment, a cold howling wind suddenly rose from the ground, directly rolling up the men in suits and masks in front of them from the ground, and slamming them heavily against the wall of the opposite house. In the blink of an eye, these guys turned into a pile of ice sculptures covered with ice and snow.

"Really? You don't have the work ethic of a villain at all."

Fang Zheng put down Frostmourne in his hand and shook his head. Generally speaking, in this kind of situation, shouldn't you, as a villain, say something? For example, why are you chasing this girl, who is she, where are you taking her, who are you handing her over to, etc. You just opened fire without saying anything, and let people die in confusion. It's very unprofessional, isn't it?

After putting down Frostmourne, Fang Zheng looked at the girl beside him. The girl was staring at him in surprise, and then she opened her mouth, as if she was about to say something. But the next moment, the girl seemed to have lost her strength and fell backwards - and then was hugged by Fang Zheng.

“What a hassle.”

Fang Zheng scratched his head and looked around.

Anyway, let’s leave here first.

Holding the girl, Fang Zheng found a car left by the mafia, and after stealing the wallets from those unlucky guys, he drove away from this place of trouble humming a song.

By the way, this girl is not human.

Driving on the viaduct, Fang Zheng looked at the girl who was still unconscious beside him. At the first sight of the girl, Fang Zheng could feel that she was not a human, but some kind of special existence. Not only that, he could also feel a very familiar aura from the girl, as if he had some kind of resonance with her.

Perhaps this is why the prophecy spell guided me here?

So, who is this girl?
