Free Web NovelChapter 913: Chapter 534: You’re Standing on the Deep Sea!
[Boom!]
[With the sound of cannon fire, the sea area where Zhu Yue was located suddenly erupted with bright flames.]
[Is this what the deep sea flagship level is like?]
[What kind of accuracy is this? There’s no way to dodge...]
[Zhu Yue thought desperately.]
[She hated the feeling of dying a little bit...]
Goodness, Shen Sui exclaimed, goodness.
What kind of bad luck has Alice got herself into? How did she encounter such an enemy as soon as she came to the Shipgirl World...
Seeing Alice’s situation, Shen Sui didn’t know what to say.
Taking a single destroyer to challenge the competition, only Alice would do such a thing.
For a moment, Shen Sui was a bit worried because this is indeed the flagship’s main cannon.
Yet, the Dueling Device never showed any threat signal coming from Alice.
Sure enough, upon closer inspection, Alice was miraculously unharmed.
Damn, what kind of Innate Admiral Saint Body is this? Taking a direct hit from the deep sea flagship’s main cannon and being unharmed.
You know, Alice was right next to Zhu Yue. The shell’s caliber was enough to cover them, not to mention that even the blast’s aftermath could take a normal human away.
[Alice crawled out somewhat embarrassedly from beneath Zhu Yue’s body.]
[The sea rolled, and the energy from the explosion caused the surrounding water to boil.]
[Yet, at this moment, Alice’s vision showed no sign of the enemy on the horizon.]
[Wow, this attack is so cool, I want to try to see if my Fireball Technique can attack someone from such a long distance.]
[Alice thought to herself.]
Shen Sui couldn’t hold it back.
["I say... at a time like this, can’t you think of something slightly more practical?" You spoke to Alice.]
["What else can I do? I can’t cry my eyes out; that won’t change the situation." Alice greeted you.]
["How’s Zhu Yue doing?"]
[Alice checked and said, "Hmm, a bit dire, but at least she’s still alive."]
[Alice briefly described the situation just now.]
Although she lost most of her abilities due to the world’s rule changes, the Four Source Powers in her body were still running normally.
Shen Sui knew this a bit, as Twilight Power not being restricted by rules is why Vivian can move freely among various worlds.
[Although Alice didn’t know the rules of the Shipgirl World, she used the knowledge she learned in the Magical Girl World to modify the rules on her and Zhu Yue when the shell hit, making them immune to physics.]
[Ding! You acquired a spell card: Physics, doesn’t exist]
Damn it, immune to physics, why not just ascend to heaven!
While hoping Alice would become stronger, this level of strength is absurd! Not even cheating would be this outrageous, right?
Shen Sui exclaimed at the absurdity, but upon hearing Alice’s subsequent explanation, he calmed down somewhat.
What Alice referred to as "physics" was limited to the part of physics she knew, which was the high school knowledge she encountered while teaching at Ye Nainai’s school.
Yet, despite that, it’s still one of the world’s fundamental rules.
And these kinds of rules are the hardest to modify.
Even though Alice used Dawn Power, she merely deleted the concept from her and Zhu Yue’s bodies for a second, but using it wisely was enough for Alice and Zhu Yue to avoid the shell’s deadliest damage.
["But even with that, it wouldn’t be enough for you to be completely unharmed, would it?"]
["Zhu Yue seemed to put a shield on me and blocked the remaining damage," Alice said as she summoned Zhu Yue’s damage control team.]
[They were working hard to repair Zhu Yue’s injuries.]
[Alice wanted to use Dawn Power to modify the repair speed of the damage control team.]
[However, the two rule modifications had already exhausted Alice’s power, especially the temporary shell immunity, which drained all her remaining strength.]
Since when did a destroyer’s shield become so powerful?
Shen Sui sensed something was off, so he used a skill to check the situation on Zhu Yue.
Unlike Alice, who couldn’t use magic, Shen Sui could still use Extraordinary Power in this world, arguably because Shen Sui’s powers were player skills.
[Traces of Dawn Power rule modification were found on Zhu Yue.]
[Such modification allowed Zhu Yue to survive the shelling.]
["...What did you do to her?"]
[Seeing Zhu Yue gradually recovering normal vital signs, Alice breathed a sigh of relief and said to you, "In short... from now on, the first attack Zhu Yue suffers each day won’t be fatal, even if it’s deadly."]
Shen Sui felt this setup was familiar, like it was from other games.
["Critical protection?"]
["Critical? What’s critical?" Alice instinctively asked.]
["This setup doesn’t exist in this world!" You said in surprise.]
["Oh." Alice blinked, "Well, now it does."]
[Ding! You acquired a spell card: Critical Protection]
"..."
Shen Sui looked at Alice silently for a long time, then turned to Vivian, who was resting and sipping coffee nearby. "Is Dawn Power really this outrageous?"
"Of course, that’s why it’s called the Four Source Powers." Vivian said matter-of-factly, confused by Shen Sui’s expression, "Did something happen with Alice again?"
Shen Sui twitched his mouth, recounting Alice’s recent encounter to Vivian.
Vivian, who had lived in the Shipgirl World, though not engaged in much combat, still had basic knowledge.
"Well, that does sound like something Alice would do." Vivian remarked.
However, Alice’s current ability could only modify individual rules and couldn’t yet use Dawn Power to incorporate her newly invented rules into the world rules.
If things go smoothly and Alice can further comprehend Dawn Power, she might soon modify the rules within her surrounding range.
By then, Alice’s domain will take form.
The shipgirl repair time is really long since this is reality, not a game.
As the sun was about to set, Zhu Yue barely regained consciousness.
["Quickly go, leave here now." Zhu Yue still couldn’t understand why she survived, but she knew this wasn’t the time to dwell on it.]
["There shouldn’t be any danger now, right?" Alice said confusedly, "We’ve been here for so long, and they haven’t caught up."]
["Is it possible..." Zhu Yue weakly said, "They’re just slow?"]
["Ah... that is quite slow, though."]
["After all, it’s a fortress; conventionally, it’s considered land. Turning deep sea and being able to move was already absurd." Zhu Yue continued as she regained mobility and set out with Alice as fast as possible.]
[Perhaps their opponents never expected a destroyer to survive their shelling, so they didn’t bother to check the corpses.]
[After confirming that the radar showed no deep-sea images, Zhu Yue finally relaxed, and her body seemed drained of energy, collapsing on the sea, breathing heavily.]
[Fortunately, as a destroyer, her repair difficulty wasn’t high.]
[Now she’s nearly at a ’mid-broken’ state.]
[But the situation is still dire; some critical components were damaged in the shelling, which her damage control team cannot repair and must be replaced.]
[But being a ’blackhouse’ status now, where could she find the parts?]
["Speaking of." Alice suddenly asked, "From the data I saw, aren’t shipgirls supposed to turn into big ships?"]
["Ship armor expansion is only a feature of ancient ship armor." Zhu Yue replied, "My modern ship armor doesn’t have this feature, and even those shipgirls contracted with ancient ship armor rarely use ship armor expansion. After all, with ship armor expansion, the target becomes apparent and easily locked by the deep sea, only those super powerful big sisters dare to do so."]
["So, where are we going next?" Alice asked.]
["Huh? Don’t you have a destination?" Zhu Yue countered.]
["No, my primary purpose here is to check out new rules." Alice blinked, "And to have more battles if possible."]
["More battles... I might know a place." Zhu Yue pondered, "And maybe check out that nearby black market for spare parts to repair my ship armor."]
