Free Web NovelChapter 919: Chapter 536: Alice Attempts to Launch
The source of all this comes from a comic convention.
Tyrpitz is a staunch romantic, while Deep Sea North Residence is purely on the dark side; these tendencies are perfectly reflected in their respective works.
Of course, when it comes to killing the Minotaur, the two are famously united in opinion.
Shen Sui shook his head, bringing his consciousness back to reality.
When Shen Sui opened the Dueling Device, Zhu Yue and Alice had already entered the waters of the Red Maple Fortress.
Before they even saw the Red Maple Fortress, Alice couldn’t wait and blocked a fishing boat near the fortress, feasting on board.
The captain, seeing Zhu Yue dressed like a shipgirl, dared not slack, and afterwards, he didn’t even want to accept any money. Zhu Yue had to forcibly make him take it.
After the meal, Alice regained her usual energy.
Although Shen Sui didn’t see from the previous description on the Dueling Device that Alice ever lost her energy.
Alice, feeling lively again, naturally began her traditional craft—causing trouble.
Luckily, Alice had her limits, and in this unfamiliar place where she couldn’t unleash her power, she merely wanted to try out the new weapons on Zhu Yue.
Zhu Yue couldn’t refuse Alice, so she had to grant partial access to her key Ship Armor.
[Alice watched the shells fly around in the air, puzzled, "Why is its trajectory so weird?"]
["Those are missiles," Zhu Yue shouted distressedly. They were her most expensive weapons, even if the components were the cheapest kind of missiles, they were still missiles, "How did you manage to fire the missiles?"]
["So...why is it flying randomly?"]
["...What target did you set for it?"]
["Huh? You have to set a target for these things?"]
["Missiles, don’t they need a target to fire?" Zhu Yue flipped through the manual, saying, "That’s exactly what it says in the manual."]
["I didn’t set a target?"]
["Then how did you make it launch? One of the launch requirements is to input coordinates or identify the object of attack."]
[Alice exclaimed, "I didn’t input anything; it just launched!"]
[No sooner had she spoken, the missile that had been randomly flying in the air seemed to find a target and disappeared with a whoosh from their sight.]
[Both watched the missile speeding away, dismayed by the wind.]
["So, where’s it going?" Alice asked Zhu Yue beside her.]
[Zhu Yue gave the best answer, "I don’t know."]
["Aren’t these your missiles? Shouldn’t they track? At least know if they hit the target?"]
["Hmm...let me see..." Zhu Yue checked the manual and then said honestly, "After inputting the target’s instructions and pressing the launch button, the missile will automatically track and hit the target. However, due to design flaws in this product, the accuracy rate deviates but is still as high as 0.1%....."]
["...Did you buy fake and inferior products?"]
[Ding! You have obtained a Spell Card: Fake Missile]
Shen Sui, after reading this segment, didn’t know what to say, feeling an undeniable sense of the uncanny duo.
Fortunately, Alice knew how to comfort people and immediately diverted Zhu Yue’s attention by bringing up the issue of the Red Maple Fortress.
After a brief stop, they set off again in the direction of the Red Maple Fortress.
But as they approached the Red Maple Fortress, they felt something was amiss.
In the distance, the Red Maple Fortress was nestled in a fiery glow, with the entire sky ablaze, illuminating the century-old fortress.
["What happened?" Zhu Yue stopped a shipgirl who seemed to be heading for an expedition out of the fortress, inquisitively asking.]
["Not long ago, a missile of unknown origin landed in the forest behind the fortress, and the explosion caused a fire," the shipgirl explained enthusiastically, "But you don’t need to worry, the firefighting team is already on their way, and when I left, the fire was under control."]
[As the shipgirl spoke, a helicopter flew overhead, with a large bucket slung below, presumably taking water to the fire site.]
["Missile..." Alice looked at Zhu Yue.]
[Zhu Yue remained silent.]
[After the shipgirl left, Alice cautiously said, "It couldn’t be that accurate, right?"]
["Who knows, this thing has only a 0.1% accuracy rate; whatever it hits is anyone’s guess," Zhu Yue was still annoyed about buying a fake missile.]
Shen Sui figured, with Alice’s luck, the missile hitting Red Maple Fortress was probably her doing.
"Is Alice in another world now?" Isabella came over at this time, asking curiously.
She plopped herself down on Shen Sui’s shoulder.
Although this body was small in stature, it was fully equipped, with everything it should have.
Shen Sui could distinctly feel the softness of Isabella’s hips.
But thinking that way was indeed too depraved.
Shen Sui took a couple of deep breaths, maintaining his composure, and replied, "Yes, she needs to enhance her power, otherwise she can’t handle Baris’s matters."
In recent chatter with Isabella, Shen Sui had already mentioned Baris, so he didn’t elaborate further here.
Isabella nodded and quietly sat there, leaning on Shen Sui’s neck, watching as Shen Sui went through Alice’s adventures.
