Wang Yu trembled as he opened the module panel for Tianqing Port, and the familiar game interface appeared before his eyes.
However, the Secretary Ship's position was now just an empty port background, with no familiar Secretary Ship waiting there to welcome him back to the port.
Wang Yu was startled and instinctively opened the Tianqing Port dock interface.
Familiar figures were neatly arranged on the screen according to their levels, images he had once been so familiar with, but all of them had lost their color.
Wang Yu tried to click on their panels, but the panels seemed to be locked by chains, showing no reaction at all.
The cold, mechanical prompt echoed in his mind again.
"Detected Commander network connected, restoring construction..."
Wang Yu was about to attempt more, but the virtual panel had already disappeared from his mind again, and he returned to reality.
Construction was still ongoing.
Essex looked in surprise at the body that was completely submerged in the pillar of light.
Was this commotion a little too big? She wondered how he managed it.
"The King of Judgement, who is destined to cut off fate with me, accomplishing all this is perfectly normal," York said proudly, raising her chin.
I knew that the King of Judgement contained endless power (friendship) and was destined to cut off fate with me and rebuild the future!
"Laffey also thinks the King of Judgement is amazing," the white-haired, rabbit-eared loli, who always seemed half-asleep, nodded in agreement with York.
Shang-Ri La watched this scene calmly, listening to the various surprised voices of the others, but did not make any comments, just quietly watched that figure, the anticipation in her eyes growing stronger and stronger, and she secretly made up her mind.
Wang Yu could no longer see anything in front of him; his vision was completely filled with the light emitted by the cubes, only able to see the free-floating mental particles.
Countless shadows appeared in his mind, as if a warship was riding the wind and waves, countless carrier-based aircraft taking off from the flight deck, and also scenes of planes returning to the deck from the air, scenes of ships sailing freely on the sea, and also scenes of ships being cast little by little from skeletons within a shipyard.
Wang Yu realized he was reading history; this should be the historical memory of the Ship Girls he was about to construct this time.
He saw battle after battle at sea, he saw boundless fire rain falling from the sky, he saw planes launching suicide attacks on ships, he saw bombs blooming into brilliant fireworks on the deck, and he also saw ships sailing into the distance with damaged hulls.
Wang Yu was not a military enthusiast.
His understanding of naval military affairs was limited to what he knew from games, at most supplemented by some information he had learned to play these games.
Because he was interested, he had read some ship histories.
It was basically impossible for him to directly identify which ship it was from these images, but he could confirm that the ship being constructed this time should be an aircraft carrier, he just didn't know who it was, Glorious, Enterprise, Saratoga? Or Akagi, Kaga, or others.
Information about several Ship Girls unfolded in his mind one by one.
At the same time, he could feel the strength in his body being drawn away little by little.
Correspondingly, the light cluster on the construction device was growing larger and larger, and the light was becoming stronger and stronger, and at the same time, he felt a deeper connection with the light cluster above the altar, and as time went on, this unknown connection was gradually deepening.
Even if Wang Yu was ignorant, he knew that this connection came from his Ship Girls; his initial ship in this world was being built by his own hands, little by little.
"More than two hours have passed. Looking at the time, it definitely isn't a light cruiser or a destroyer. And it still looks far from done, so it's probably either an aircraft carrier or a battleship," Hornet's words sparked discussions among the other Ship Girls, who chattered and whispered to each other, as they were not unfamiliar with the construction process and agreed with Hornet's assessment.
"He is indeed a powerful Commander. His first construction is a very formidable main battleship.
It seems Mr. Wang Yu, no, he should be called Commander Wang Yu now, will soon become a powerful Commander, and perhaps he will soon have his own port as well."
A wise light flickered in Shang-Ri La's eyes; she did not speak, and no one knew what she was thinking.
Wang Yu did not hear the voices of the crowd below; at this moment, he could not hear any sound.
He could feel the faint connection emanating from the light cluster, and relatively, he felt as if his body had been hollowed out.
Not only physical fatigue, but also mental exhaustion, as if he had truly experienced a long period of time, battle after battle, and wandering again and again.
He had spent that distant era with the Ship Girls who were being built.
His hand was now resting on the construction device, and he tried his best to keep his body steady.
But it was not easy; the feeling from his body was too tired, as if he was about to fall down immediately.
However, his brain commanded his body to persevere, and a voice in his heart told him that he absolutely could not fall...
Soon, everything he expected would truly become a reality.
Just like the difficulties experienced before the beginning of every story, after enduring the most painful times, a more brilliant and brighter future awaits.
The darkness has passed, and Glorious will eventually arrive.
He tried his best to motivate himself.
He felt his consciousness starting to blur, and he didn't know when the historical images in his mind had disappeared, but at this moment, he was completely numb and couldn't recall them.
Only one thought firmly occupied his mind.
Just a little longer, success is imminent, absolutely cannot give up, how can I fall at a time like this!
The future was in his own hands, no matter what, he would never let it slip away!
He didn't know how much time had passed.
He felt everything gradually coming to an end, and the mental particles were no longer agitated.
They flowed smoothly like a stream, connecting him to the construction device, all converging towards the light sphere floating in the sky.
Finally, the light gradually dimmed, and a figure in a white dress appeared faintly in the light and shadow.
In Wang Yu's eyes, it was like a saving starlight, piercing through the boundless darkness and descending before him.
He knew he had succeeded.
"Good day, Commander."
An extremely gentle voice came.
Though it was close at hand, the voice was ethereal, as if from an infinite distance.
He only felt that the voice was so gentle, as if it could melt his heart.
He let out a long sigh of relief.
The will he had been holding onto instantly collapsed, and he could no longer hold on.
He tried hard to open his eyes, wanting to see who it was, but could only see a white figure.
Then he felt his hand, which was holding the construction device, slip.
How many times have I fainted now?
He felt his body tilting forward, but the expected pain of hitting the ground did not come.
He felt as if he had fallen into a warm embrace.
Soft, soft landing? Is that you?
He finally relaxed and fell into a deep sleep.
