"It's... that ship that was once favored by the gods?"
"Interesting... the strongest person paired with the strongest ship..."
"......"
Compared to Yamin's surprise, Ye Han appeared much calmer. He looked at the ship-shaped [Shattered Star] with interest and spoke up, "Hey! This year's [Rookie King], you don't need to move forward!"
"The flight path ahead is blocked!"
"This hurdle still requires our concerted efforts!"
"It takes eight people to activate the mechanism together for this route to be cleared! If you don't believe me, you can go and check the route ahead!"
The clear, cold voice echoed in the sea. Upon hearing this, Zheng Hao immediately stopped the boat and scanned the narrow waterway with his eyes.
He certainly believed what Ye Han said.
The fact that both of them are stuck here is enough to show how threatening this level is.
only...
"Tsk..."
"[Cooperation]?"
"I'm afraid that...it'll be another round of intrigue and backstabbing soon..."
"And, eight people?"
"Both the Seaweed and Takahashi Akitoshi are dead? Doesn't that mean we're short-handed?"
After muttering it aloud, Zheng Hao didn't bother to hide anything: "Former champion, forgive my bluntness! All eight people are gone. When the [Seaweed] was racing me just now, it seemed to have entered some kind of [limit-breaking state], and then... then it exploded!"
"Do you think... we can still get through?"
"What!?"
"[Breaking Limits]? Explosion?!"
As if he had heard something unbelievable, Ye Han was stunned!
"impossible!"
"The [Limit Breaking State] is very difficult for ordinary people to enter; only those with exceptional talent as [Ship Girls] have a chance to enter! Moreover, the [Limit Breaking State] is the sublimation of a [Ship Girl], so how could it possibly explode?"
"impossible!!!"
Upon hearing the negative response, Zheng Hao didn't argue with Ye Han, but simply replied helplessly, "I have the replay from back then, do you want to watch it?"
"......"
Ye Han did not reply.
Inside the Captain's Cabin of the Sword Star, Ye Han's deep gaze fell upon the helm, which was transmitting footage of the recent match. He had access to the Ship Alliance, making it easy for him to view replays of any match.
"This...this is what kind of [limit breaking]?!"
"This is completely wrong!"
"Is this a forced [breakthrough] at the cost of burning oneself?!"
Ye Han's expression turned serious as he watched the scene unfold with a strange look. Then, his gaze turned to the [Second Division], becoming distant and unfocused...
......
[Area 1] is located in the downhill tunnel leading to [Area 2].
With its stern, still emitting a chilling aura, embedded in the wall, the hull of the [Song of Calamity] trembled. Only after watching the [Shattered Star] disappear did it dare to slowly move its body, attempting to move out of the wall.
"Waaah—waaah—"
"[Weather Forecast] I'm afraid of her... [Weather Forecast] I'm afraid of her!"
"......"
The rare sound of a normal weather forecast emanating from inside the cabin caused Luke Dane's face to light up with joy. A hoarse shout escaped his crystalline throat: "Weather forecast?! Weather forecast?!"
"Hmm—"
"Dann, I feel really unwell—"
"It's so bloated... I need to eat... I'm so hungry..."
"Click-click-click—"
After only a brief moment of clarity, amidst the weeping of the [Weather Forecast], the ice and crystals before Dan's eyes rapidly surged into his body!
He was already enveloped in 'ice blocks' and 'red crystals', creating an extremely oppressive temperature contrast between ice and fire.
Now, for some unknown reason, Dan's body was convulsing uncontrollably. His blood, bone marrow, and organs seemed to be crystallizing! His eyes were wide open, a shattered wound opened at his heart, and countless crystals were emerging from below...
There was absolutely no blood flow or organ pulsation under the skin!
It's all crystals!!!
"Uh...uh..."
Dan felt that he had been completely crystallized.
With his last trembling lips, he could no longer see his surroundings, only whimpering, "[Weather Forecast]...[Weather Forecast]..."
"win!"
"I want to beat her! I want to beat her!!!"
After the silent ship began to move again, the voice of the weather forecast gradually became oppressive and violent.
"Sizzle—"
As the burning lava and frozen ice gained momentum, Dan's consciousness gradually faded. He was crystallized, his stone-like face completely frozen in the captain's cabin.
Regret filled Dan's face, and a tear glistened in the corner of his eye.
He didn't regret that he was going to die...
What he regrets is that this vial of serum turned the weather forecast into this mess!
"win!"
"I want to win!!!"
Before his consciousness faded, the last words of the weather forecast echoed in his ears. Dan's throat trembled, his voice choked with emotion: "That...that ship...something's wrong...something's wrong..."
"After she... after she transformed... after you were bumped into by her... you can return to normal... but... you're obviously absorbing my energy much faster..."
"she..."
"It doesn't seem like she accelerated time..."
"She...she's more like...leading something...towards...towards..."
"Click—"
Before Dan could finish speaking, the crystallized head completely shattered, turning into a pile of fragments...
"[Time Acceleration]!!!"
With Dan's complete demise, [Song of Calamity] gained the ability of [Time Acceleration]. She showed no sorrow whatsoever for Dan's death; as the surrounding seawater vibrated and accelerated, [Song of Calamity] arrived in [Region Two]!
She stood motionless in a corner of the [Second Zone], steaming.
she...
She gazed down at the three [SSS+] class ship girls docked below.
And the three ship girls were also staring at her!
The scene seemed to freeze, and Ye Han was about to repeat what he had said to Zheng Hao to Da Enting.
Can...
Seeing the appearance of [Song of Calamity], Ye Han's expression turned cold: "[Break-Distance] stance? Another [Break-Distance]? You can also [Break-Distance]?! No... your [Break-Distance] level is too low..."
"But it can still maintain the [Breakthrough] stance..."
"What exactly are you...?"
"What's going on?!"
The scrutinizing gaze was fixed on the "Song of Calamity".
In the darkness...
A temporary deathly silence!
