Azur Lane: Traveling through time and becoming a Siren!

Chapter 999 Trap and Outbreak

......

P.S.: This chapter is incomplete. I've been working late today... It's already 11 PM, so I definitely won't be able to finish it. Sigh. I'll extend it by an hour or two.

Then for a period of time.

Jiang Mengyue remained inside the outpost.

Nagato and Musashi officially began their operation.

She handed over all the surrounding fleets to Xiaomeng.

After Xiaomeng and her men surrounded the Great Holy Domain, Nagato, Musashi, and Amagi entered the barrier.

The first step has officially begun: searching for the whereabouts of the calamity's enemy, "Xi".

During the operation, Nagato also used local materials to collect information related to the Sage Ritual.

After a series of actions surrounding the Great Sacred Tree, Nagato has almost finished collecting the materials.

However, no details related to "breath" have been found within the barrier.

It was as if the enemy had truly been wiped out.

As they split up, Amagi felt a sense of unease about the place.

Despite various attempts, including resorting to Siren tactics, Amagi was unable to discern what was causing this feeling in her.

And when the city looked at the great sacred tree in the center...

Staring at the Great Divine Tree for a moment, what I saw felt stinging and began to flicker and pulsate.

Something's wrong with the sacred tree...

Nagato and Musashi also discovered this problem at the same time.

Musashi and Nagato did not find any other abnormalities.

However, they expressed doubts about the terrain within the Great Holy Domain.

They clearly remembered that after the war, this place was a complete mess.

Why...

The landscape now appears exactly the same as it did decades ago.

Beautiful mountains and rivers, towering crystal formations...

There were just fewer living beings.

This place should have been a ruined place.

When they looked at the Great Divine Tree, they had the same feeling as Amagi.

Staring intently at the Great Sacred Tree, what I saw began to sting and flicker...

Tiancheng quickly used teleportation to gather the three of them together.

Nagato speculated, "The enemy has certainly not been completely wiped out; they have simply gone into hiding."

"The Great Divine Tree is still abnormal, but I believe that 'Xi's' strength is not what it used to be."

"The next steps should be taken with greater caution, focusing on searching for the whereabouts of the Great Sage."

"You go ahead, I still have some materials to collect..."

Afterwards, Musashi and Amagi parted ways with Nagato and headed to the very center of the Great Sacred Domain, where the Great Divine Tree was located.

......

Musashi and Amagi remained silent throughout the journey.

In front of Nagato, the two did not seem to show any estrangement, and their conversation was as usual.

But once Nagato left, all the past events resurfaced in his mind.

The battle in front of the castle tower, Amagi's death in front of Akagi, and Musashi's recent counterattack against Emu...

Putting Jiang Mengyue aside, Musashi was an extremely excellent leader, and she always upheld her duty to protect Sakura Empire. She did nothing wrong.

In silence, the two approached the Great Divine Tree.

Amagi knew nothing about this place; he had only heard its stories from the long gate.

Therefore, Musashi is the real expert.

Just as the two stepped into a certain area.

A voice rang in their minds.

"...trap..."

"Leave..."

"Leave...quickly..."

Just as Tiancheng was guessing the person's identity.

Musashi recognized him: "Great Sage! Is that you?"

"What's with the trap?!"

Musashi became even more vigilant. According to Nagato's description, the calamity should have been almost completely suppressed by Jiang Mengyue.

She suspected that the enemy might have secretly set a trap to launch a counterattack.

Musashi was not so worried or afraid about this, not to mention that Nagato was about to prepare a counter-attack ceremony behind him.

There's also her proxy, Amagi, right next to her.

Moreover, there's an arbitrator and a commander from Azur Lane outside the barrier.
