Königsberg streaked ahead, itching for a solo kill; she had her reasons.
Solo the nightmare and she bagged three gold chests. Share and the top damage dealer got two, everyone else with ten percent a mere one.
Greed lit her course—three chests beat one.
But a three-star nightmare Princess was no pushover; two or even three Three-Star Epic Ship Girls were the safe minimum.
Blind to caution, Königsberg saw only glittering chests ahead.
"Detestable Ship Girls…" Anchorage Princess snarled skyward.
Fifty metres above her, Königsberg hovered like a judge. "So you're Anchorage Princess—not so scary. Bad luck; today you die."
"You go no further—sink!" The Princess' rigging unfolded black gun barrels, shells slamming home.
Boom—Königsberg's Ship Qi blazed round her like fire; a blue longsword flashed into her grip, then flared blinding bright.
When the glare rivalled the sun, she roared, "Sword-Rain Fall!"
She slashed again and again; torrents of blade-qi shrieked down.
In her mind the salvo would dice the Princess to scraps.
The barrage howled in, but Anchorage Princess merely watched. One metre from impact she snapped a Ship Qi Shield into place.
Blade-qi exploded against the barrier like endless firecrackers, sparks and smoke billowing.
When the haze cleared the silver-haired figure stood untouched, barrier gleaming.
"Impossible—my strike didn't even crack her shield," Königsberg stammered.
While she reeled, the Princess levelled every main and secondary gun, shells loaded and elevated.
Seven or eight shells—each carrying a nightmare's full power—blasted toward Königsberg.
She waited until the warheads were one metre away, then snapped her own Ship Qi Shield up.
"Bang bang bang..." Shells continuously bombarded Königsberg. Her Ship Qi Shield flickered as if it might vanish at any moment, leaving Königsberg terrified. She hadn't expected this Anchorage Princess to be so powerful that her Ship Qi Shield was on the verge of disappearing.
Just as Königsberg wanted to counterattack, Anchorage Princess's pitch-black cannons fired with a series of bangs. Another wave of seven or eight shells flew toward her, bombarding the Ship Qi Shield directly.
After the Ship Qi Shield was shattered, the cannons continued to fire shells in rapid succession. Seven or eight shells followed one after another, knocking the defenseless Königsberg out of the sky and into the sea, her fate unknown.
Upon arriving within 50 meters of Anchorage Princess and seeing Königsberg knocked into the sea with her fate unknown, Dido, leading the fleet, couldn't help but sigh. They were ultimately a step too late. "Königsberg, may you walk slowly on the path to heaven."
"Königsberg has died a heroic death. We will avenge her! Sisters, charge!" Dido's fleet engaged in battle with Anchorage Princess's fleet.
Anchorage Princess retracted her rigging. With a boom, her powerful aura erupted. Blue Ship Qi continuously swirled around her body, and blue Six-winged Light Wings unfolded behind her back.
A Three-Star Nightmare-class Abyssal Princess is different from a Three-Star Epic Ship Girl. At three stars, a Nightmare-class Abyssal Princess already possesses Ship Qi, flight, and unique abilities. Because of this, it takes two or three Three-Star Epic Ship Girls working together to sink one.
With a swoosh, Anchorage Princess soared into the sky and beckoned to Dido and Souryuu, the two powerful Ship Girls. "Foolish Ship Girls, come and meet your deaths."
When Königsberg fought Anchorage Princess alone, she was knocked into the sea in no time, and now no one knew if she was alive or dead. Because of this, they didn't dare to be overconfident. Dido and Souryuu exchanged a look and decided to attack together.
Dido and Souryuu each erupted with their powerful auras. Purple Ship Qi wrapped around their bodies like flames. Although their purple Ship Qi and abilities were suppressed to three stars, they believed that by working together, they could definitely sink Anchorage Princess.
They flew up into the sky and stopped three zhang away from Anchorage Princess. Dido and Souryuu faced off against Anchorage Princess in mid-air.
Both the Ship Girls and the Abyssal Warships stopped their fighting to watch the three figures in mid-air. Under countless Gazes, the Ship Girls' aura collided with the Abyssal Princess's aura like crashing meteorites, stirring up massive aftershocks of Ship Qi.
The pressure erupting from the three figures was so intense that the Ship Girls and Abyssal Warships below found it difficult to breathe.
A great battle between Ship Girls and the Abyss unfolded in this sea area. There was no possibility of peaceful coexistence; when the two met, it was a fight to the death.
