Just when everyone is desperately trying to figure out how to properly solve the current situation-

"Inside Nagara 2, human observers are in contact. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info" said Nazlin, who was wearing headphones.

"Yay...... Can you still contact us in this case?" Sakura was curious—

This is the bottom of the sea, and although the ship's internal life support system is still functioning normally, it has only been minimally exploded in order to save energy. As with a sinking submarine awaiting rescue, the crew should minimize their activities, including talking and thinking, and lie motionless at all times except for physical needs.

The three crew members of the Sakura are okay because they are outsiders.

Under such conditions, it must be very important to still be in touch?

"Pick it up. And so did the yarn silo.

"Induce enemy ships to move westward, and there will be an opportunity next, so be sure to seize it. "That's just a short message.

Sakura was a little disappointed, whether it was true or not, this is too unclear, and it is completely impossible to cooperate with the battle, after all, human beings are at this level, under the minimum life support system, it is the limit to make such thoughts and words.

"Who sent it?" asked Sakura Misaka. ”

"Well, I'll see. Scream, ring...... Real glass. ”

"Hibiki Ruri-" Sakura called up this person's information, although it was inconvenient to connect to the human network in order to hide, but the human observers of this operation had all entered the information into the fleet's database.

"I see, I can't calculate it, but in terms of results, it's worth a try. ”

Hibiki Ruri, Chihaya Group Portrait and others were classmates at the Institute of Marine Technology, who were originally sonar members of the I-401 crew, and later left the ship for personal reasons. He is now a second lieutenant in the Command Navy, and during the battle in Yokosuka Harbor, he accompanied the Moby Dick submarine to support the I-401.

However, under the circumstances, it was absolutely impossible for I-401 and Moby Dick to make contact, and as long as they did, it would be revealed that they were not silent, and Sakura would definitely attack again. In other words, is it the ability to cooperate with the battle without the need for instant information communication? The torpedo that pierced the supergravity cannon would probably not have been fired without this person's intermediary, and even if it did, it would not have been able to grasp the time.

"Hawk, operate the active decoy and move in the direction of Hokkaido. Misaka Sakura ordered. ”

"But......" Although the skull quickly began to operate according to the order, he replied to a somewhat tired look, "The bait is only you, Hinata, and Ise's pseudo-hulls, do you want to add new ones?"

Although it is clear that I don't want to add a new active decoy. After all, this is really tiring work, and bullet hell games don't have to be played like this.

"No need. ”

That's of course, if you add it, isn't it just telling King Kong that he can keep making bait, and expose that he may not have left this sea area all the time?

"Open the current map of the sea area where the active lure is located, and overlay it with the topography map of the seabed...... Set up an active bait to travel along ocean currents and bottom ravines. Misaka Sakura ordered. ”

"Eh, that's just hiding, and it doesn't work as a bait. ”

"Ah, by the way, to add, sell a little bit of flaw. It was as if a floating boulder had hit the hull of the ship. ”

"Huh...... I know. ”

Submarine I-401——

"Sensing huge spatial shock fluctuations, it's a hypergravity cannon, but it doesn't fit any of the types recorded. The North American fleet, all destroyed. Sonar officer Shizuka reports.

"Huge Space Shock Fluctuation ......" the group portrait fell into deep thought, "Iona, the message on the tactical network?"

"There is no new news from either side. Iona replied.

"Then the blow just now must not have been done by Sakura's side, because one blow wiped out a fleet, and for all considerations, it can't be justified if it wasn't uploaded immediately. The group portrait said.

"But it's the same for the other side, isn't it?" said the monk, "and the other side has no reason or motive to destroy the North American fleet." ”

"Iona, originally a mechanical sea fog ship, there is no possibility of such a large-scale accidental injury, so if there is a mental model, is it possible to sink the enemy ship regardless of friendly forces?" asked the group portrait.

"I don't know, but given the diversity of current mental models, the probability of such a mode of thinking is probably not impossible. Iona said.

"So, can Iona confirm that the other ships of the fleet are alive?"

"If it's a flagship, I can sense the state of all ships, but I'm just a ship part of the Second Fleet right now, and I can only know if the flagship is alive. At present, the yarn warehouse is alive. ”

"Hmm......" the group thought for a moment, and said word by word, "The Second Fleet seems to be in trouble." ”

"Huh?" a group of crew members were surprised by the categorical cut-off of the group portrait.

"We're working together now, but since just now, all kinds of communications have been cut off from that side, so it can be roughly inferred that they are in a state of stealth and hiding, in order to avoid the sharp edge of the super gravity cannon just now. The group image explained.

"What do you do, do you want reinforcements?" asked Kyopei.

"At a speed of 15 knots, the bass submarine advances, the position of the enemy forces is unknown, and it is absolutely not to be detected. "The group portrait ordered.

The crew began to operate in an orderly manner.

"Underwater Shadow x3 ahead, depth 200, speed 7 knots, head this way. Signal recognition: Sakura, Hinata, Ise...... Now only the ship shadow x2, Ise's reaction, disappears. There is a faint torpedo propulsion sound before it. Shizuka reported again.

Group Portrait: "That must be the active bait, which means that we need to help in the battle." Iona, what is the range of the new Hyuga Super Gravity Cannon after the adjustment?"

Sakura's intention of sending the I-401 to the ocean and giving them a chance to join the Option ship is in it, although it is not used in the plan, it is not bad as insurance, and it may be used soon.

Iona: "As long as you have enough energy, you can hit anywhere without reducing your power, just like the North American fleet was wiped out in an instant." ”

Group Portrait: "Then use all the power of the mechanism?"

Iori: "Hey, I'm always playing with this!" I think the room she was in charge of was super hot when she fired the super gravity cannon.

Xingping: "Give up, our captain is a super gambler, and it's not that he doesn't know." ”

Iori: "Line - cluster mode, if the caliber is 1m, the range is 100km. ”

Group Portrait: "If the range is reduced to 70km, how much can the power be increased?"

The constant questioning of what it feels like to place a bet at a table makes Iori a little hairy.

Group Portrait: "If the range is reduced to 70km, how much can the power be increased?"

Iori: "Uh, 143.2%. ”

Group Portrait: "What if all restrictions are lifted and full firepower?"

Iori: "Hey, that's too much, isn't it? 171.4% is achievable. ”

"However, we haven't detected each other yet, and we don't know what kind of weapons the other side has, so can we just gamble on it?" the monk asked.
