It is true that cleanliness and elegance are Befa's fighting habits, but that is only relative to other groups of ship girls. In front of this group of creatures from the Rift Valley, in this world, every one of her fighting moves is filled with a sense of power that no ordinary creature can match.

The ice giant that was stepped on could no longer continue to spray out icy power, and his head shattered on the spot. After crushing the annoying head, Befa's heel did not consume much spare energy and pierced into the hangar at the lower end of the containment cabin.

She simply stepped on this floor and collapsed it!

The charred artificial marble slabs and the titanium alloy plates of the partitions seemed to be punctured by straws, and the body of the ice giant and the stunned monsters around him all leaked out. In a blink of an eye, there was only a hole in front of Dan Heng that was cracked downwards. Befa helped him clear all obstacles on the road leading to the flames of the outer universe, but the price was a large hole in the structure that was difficult to repair, and a lower-level warehouse that might be completely messed up.

"The cave is transformed!"

The monomolecular gun fired from the opposite side of the big hole. The outer universe flame that had been entangled by several black tower puppets was unable to resist Dan Heng's sudden attack, and it was also more or less affected by the shock of Befa's "War Trample". When Dan Heng's figure instantly passed it, it suddenly knelt on the ground as if it was disabled, with a vacuum area on its chest. The red lava-like contents splattered all over the ground, and even ignited its friendly forces. Many flying creations were covered with their original attributes and began to turn into fireflies running around.

After expending a lot of physical energy and successfully killing a very threatening target, Dan Heng did not immediately put away his gun to check the situation underground, because he knew that instead of worrying about Befa's situation, it would be better to support Kong. Although he was seriously injured in one blow, it seemed that he and the Leaf Weaver had not yet decided the winner.

"Sora, I'm 30 steps directly behind you!"

The person with the most superb martial arts on the train even reported his position in a retro way, but after hearing Dan Heng's shouting in the channel, Kong slowed down his entanglement with Leaf Weaver. He tried to pull Leaf Weaver's arms outwards during an axe craniotomy, twisted its two broken arms, turned it upwards, lifted it from the ground, and then supported itself with its back and kicked it in the abdomen with both feet, kicking it in front of Dan Heng.

Dan Heng understood what he meant and swung his spear forward. The tip of the spear swept across the monster's neck and cut off its head.

"I should really modify my weapon. It will be too difficult to break the shield without rule erosion!"

Seeing this, Kong muttered something in his heart, jumped up with his legs facing the sky, and used a charging pawn as a stepping stone.

His target became clearer with this leap. The axe swung in the air in an arc almost like the sun, smashing into the opening of the rift and cutting off a large section of the surrounding black and gold eroded stone.

Honestly, after seeing Befa's charge that was comparable to a chariot crushing everything, the visual impact of Kong's pure violent aesthetics seemed to be just average. But I don't know if it was because Kong's skills were better, the rift opened by his axe did not expand further or allow the axe blade to pass through the void like it was immune to other people's physical attacks - it actually made a whimpering sound that sounded like a wail, and then began to collapse and close.

“It seems to be effective.”

【Energy replacement in progress. 】

The surface of Kong's body flashed with graphite black and several golden streams, and it looked like golden blood surging in the veins of a black sculpture. He converted all the rifts into energy, which suffocated the system.

In order to ensure safety, Kong did not try to make direct contact with the opening of the rift in the previous few times, but the situation was urgent now, so he did not deliberately apply to the Black Tower.

However, this rift summoned many difficult monsters, and the energy that could be absorbed by the system was less than one-tenth or one-twelfth, let alone compared with the blessing of the Star God. It only made the progress bar of the next Azure Archive System rise by about 5%.

Having lost contact with the Rift, the surrounding creatures of the Rift did not dissipate or flee, but their attacks became more and more chaotic, and they were squeezed by the black tower's shrinking encirclement net to Dan Heng and Kong, whose eyes were glowing golden.

The two pioneer-type killers would definitely not let them go. They swung their guns and axes wildly, cutting across and sweeping fiercely. The golden and dark green energy intertwined together, which looked quite beautiful like Tai Chi Bagua Palm.

When the hammer of the black tower puppet came against the blade of Kong's axe, the mutation finally came to an end.

"It seems to have been cleared. Thank you for your hard work, Dr. Kong."

By the time Dan Heng and Kong came to their senses, they had found a thick layer of corpses of the creatures from the World Rift under their feet. The flesh and blood of those monsters were filled with a strange gelatinous texture that did not resemble living things. They looked like chopped plastic. The scene was not bloody, but rather gave people a strange illusion of a model being destroyed by a child.

Of course, the premise is to ignore the big hole in the distribution area -

105. Oil Crisis

Kong lay at the edge of the cave with a subtle look on his face, looking down. Before he could take a closer look, a golden light more dazzling than the one that had just appeared when the system ate up the rift opening covered Kong's eyes.

All everyone could hear was a series of roars like crazy beating of gongs and drums coming from under their feet, and the rotation program of the entire space station seemed to stop for a moment with the roar.

But soon, a silver-white hair swirl jumped up and stuck to Kong's nose. Befa, half of her body covered with ice crystals and frost, jumped up holding the outer universe ice, of which only one-sixth of her body was left.

Moreover, she was very skillful in her jumping and falling movements without revealing her skirt to the outsiders, and only showed the tip of the iceberg in front of the sky.

She held the broken body of Outer Universe Ice as gracefully as possible and bowed to Sora.

"I have cleared the way for you, Master. Oh, excuse me, please allow me to straighten my manners."

After saying that, she clenched her fists, and after a crisp sound, the frost and ice clusters sticking to her shoulders were crushed and shaken off, covering the charred floor with a beautiful layer of ice blue.

[Ace! Belfast has killed the most enemies! Exclusive MVP music "Fierce Battle! - Azur Lane" is playing]

"Did you use the barrage just now?" What Kong cared about was not Befa's very skillful flirting behavior just now, nor the fact that she killed many monsters in one breath and grabbed the MVP of the Black Tower, but the energy consumption after she used the big move.

"Yes, I think that is the best time that the master has allowed me to use."

"How do you feel about the engine room? Is there any sluggishness?"

“Very energetic and can still fight.”

"What about fuel consumption?"

"We can still afford four more battles of the same intensity."

"..."

After hearing this answer, Kong's expression, which had been a little relieved after winning, became more serious.

"Just this battle alone used up one-fifth of it..."

[Perhaps because the compatibility is still under testing, the consumption in Belfast just now is almost the same as a high-intensity encounter. ]

The system explained in the empty brain: [The destructive power is sufficient, but the cost of activating the ship equipment is also very high at present, and further negotiations are required with Party A. ]

"But if we fight some random soldiers, we will use up so much energy. Our interstellar navigation plan..."

[When moving in the cruise mode provided by Party A, the consumption would not be so severe. Her actions just now were too close to the fighting style of the world of Azur Lane, causing unnecessary pressure on the surrounding rules. ]

Seeing that Kong had clearly won the fight, and achieved a complete victory with no one injured except the puppets, Ji Zi was planning to praise him, and even Dan Heng wanted to express some of his admiration to Kong and Befa.

But when he saw that Kong didn't look happy at all, he could only remain silent.

"Why are you making such a dead face when no one is dead? Dr. Kong, didn't you fight beautifully?"

Only Kurita could complain, and that was because she thought she had a very good relationship with Sora—

"He is worried about Miss Befa's fuel consumption."

Holhaiya used the particle rifle as a staff and walked to the side of Heita. He briefly explained on behalf of Kong, and then turned to scold him in a slightly unkind voice: "Doctor, you said that we should save energy, but why did you change your mind when it comes to Befa? If we launch the attack together, we can share some of the consumption."

"The situation at that time was that I was afraid that the enemy had hidden an ambush behind the rift and was preparing to attack us, and the strength of the outer space ice was not right - you know, I always have an instinctive aversion to things that look like portals."

If something looks like a portal and functions like a portal, then it is a portal, regardless of whether it pulls out creatures from the Rift or Hell.

"Letting Befa strike first is to quickly shut it down. I had a feeling that clearing the rift wouldn't be easy. If the system hadn't devoured it quickly, we might have faced even stronger creatures. Facts have proven that the outer ice is very durable. You've seen Befa's physical attack methods, but the final blow that determines the outcome is her special barrage... That's a special attack that she must accumulate through a salvo of her main guns, which consumes a lot of energy. The shield of this thing is too strong."

"It's not a question of whether it has a shield or not. Its armor can deflect some of the force and is resistant to ordinary high-temperature and high-energy attacks."

Heita shook his head: "Jizi has fought against this kind of monster before. The plasma of her drone is still very good at killing the outer space ice, but it will take some time to melt the outer shell first-"

"Alright, let's do the post-war summary when we get back. Black Tower, check to see if the erosion rate of the nearby Rift has changed. We should have just cleared the largest one."

Kong waved his hand to interrupt the black tower's show-off.

"It has been cleared - it's amazing. Even after so many years of sweeping, the Rift Zone erosion index on the surface of Azure Star is not zero."

Having said that, Heita turned his gaze from his holographic bracelet to Kong, with little stars already twinkling in his eyes.

"Dr. Kong, you just had a new change. Did you get your former strength back?"

"No, I'm afraid it's because of the transformation rift."

Kong calmly showed Heita his fingers that were returning to their normal color:

"But unfortunately, I can't directly apply the energy converted by the system to other places. Most people will get a stomachache if they eat the Rift."

"...You absorbed the Rift?"

"Well, there are too many unusable parts, and the risk of transforming it is too great... And the Black Tower, there is a wider space behind this thing. Its internal creations can parasitize the origin of the world to absorb energy, and can also bring in invaders from outside the world. In short, it is very complicated."

Sora actually looked a little confused: "This is the first time I've encountered such a difficult problem. It's the most troublesome when it involves a little bit of everything."

After saying this, he spoke before Black Tower could: "The remnants of the rift on the surface of your hometown are too fragmented and no longer pose any threat. Even if you want to entrust me to clear them, don't rush to push them all to me in the short term. Wait until I have more time."

To put it bluntly, Kong didn't want to waste too much energy on the rift that had already stabilized. He needed to go to the place with the largest opening to meet Party A's needs.

But Heita looked nonchalant: "That's not my intention, Dr. Kong. I just want to understand the ability of this transformation of Rift Realm Energy and do an experiment!"

"You're targeting me again... You can do whatever you want in the simulated universe, and everything that needs to be shown will be shown to you..."

Kong Xin wondered how he could have forgotten that this guy was an extremely selfish person - but he saw Eula, who had just come to his side, raised her head, and subconsciously reached out in front of her, just in time to catch the falling "fat baby".

"Ugh, ugh, Jizi's drone looks like it's flying slowly, how can it be so wild, ugh!"

The green-faced emergency food almost vomited a rainbow on Sora's arm.

106. Three Women and Four Groups

"Master, has Befa disappointed you?"

"No, Befa, I'm just... just worried that you'd be sent back early because of overwork. It was me who ordered you to attack first, and I'm reflecting on myself."

While preparing to finish work and go back to clean up the battlefield, Kong was indeed summarizing some mistakes according to Holhaiya's complaining reminders, so much so that Befa noticed his worry.

The mistake certainly did not refer to the fact that he took the initiative, but that his command was too general, causing Befa to consume too much energy. He should have planned more carefully to make the battle process more energy-efficient.

"Don't take it too seriously, Master. Feel free to use Befa."

But Befa was not at all sad about the possibility of leaving Kong, and even took the initiative to comfort Kong.

She leaned forward slightly, allowing her chest to touch Sora's arm without looking too affectionate to others.

This was her little trick to appease the commander. Of course, sometimes the more she appeased him, the more excited he would become.

"I am here to share the master's worries. If I make the master worry more just to save fuel for Befa, then I will miss the point and my service will no longer be perfect."

"but……"

It is because of this extraordinary sense of service that Kong is even more unsure about how to make a decision. If he causes her to be deported earlier because of Befa's willingness to pay more, Kong's conscience will be endlessly tortured.

"As long as I come here once, I can expect the master to summon me again at any time. This expectation excites me more than waiting without any confirmed news."

Belfa saw through Kong's petty dilemma and said, "It's fine if the train crew can handle the battle, but if the intensity of the battle threatens you, I hope you can continue to use Belfa without pressure like you did today. If you get hurt, how can I explain to everyone in the port? It's not like there's no chance for me to come back to you - please make a decision that suits your status."

As Befa spoke, her words gradually became more of an admonition. It seemed that she really didn't want Kong to change from a marshal to an indecisive little man.

As the saying goes, a kind person cannot command an army. If Kong could regain his normal mentality and treat himself well in private, even if he could not treat himself as a number on the battlefield... even if he was just treated as a subordinate who could be used at will, then he would have almost recovered 70% of his original strength.

"I understand."

Kong had to admit that even though he hadn't completely given up on the idea of ​​saving energy, Befa's persuasion still made him feel a lot more relaxed.

But Haiya next to her had a slightly strange expression on her face - she grabbed the head maid's wrist, took her away from Kong and closer to Himeko, and put on a sour face.

"Belfast, what do you mean?"

"What, what do you mean? Ms. Haiya, please explain clearly."

"You're just being a hero there, isn't that going to waste all the efforts of Lawrence and me?"
