"First, regroup and form a V-shape formation. Wales on the east, Renown on the west, and Hood on the middle. Hood, I leave the vanguard position to your decision. Remember you make yourself 'loud' and 'clear.'"
Kansens began to move to their position.
"Once you are in position, Wales and Renown fire your salvo to the enemies in front of you. Once the salvo is in cooldown, both of you step back to the supply position and refill your ammunition."
"While they are moving back, Hood will shoot a round of salvo to the enemy leader, Tester I believe she is called? You don't have to land a direct hit on her, just as close as possible."
As the enemy mass-produced ships and executor-class on the east and west suffer heavy firepower, they are unable to move forward. The Royal Navy's vanguard then finished shots to eliminate the remaining forces. This does not mean the enemy's right and left-wing are gone, but they brought some time for their quick refreshment.
Tester notices some battleship shells flying toward her, but she quickly dodges them.
"Huh, which insect wants to get ripped apart so badly?" Tester said.
She looks at the direction of the incoming shells and finds Hood who is commanding nearby Kansens. They both see each other eye-to-eye.
"Hehe, exposing yourself in front of me. Looks like even the Pride of the Royal Navy can't think properly when their commander is gone." Tester charges toward Hood and fires all cannons toward her target.
Side-stepping dodged the incoming fire, Hood starts to retreat backwards to the command ship.
"Wow, how boring, I thought you wanted a duel to avenge your commander. Fine, let's see if you can keep your so-called 'elegance' when you are cornered like a rat." Tester pursuits Hood.
As Hood sees the large iron wall of a command ship, she stops skating and turns around.
"What? Changed your mind all of the sudden? I am fine either way, now die you piece of trash." Tester charges toward Hood once again. Unlike the previous location, Hood has nowhere to escape. Without a commander, she should be eliminated. which is not the case this time.
As Tester charges toward Hood, she notices something seems to be under the surface and charges toward her. "Plane torpedoes, ha! You relied on these pieces of garbage to stop me?"
The torpedoes directly hit Tester, but as she said, they did not do any visible damage to her, besides making some scratch on her hull's surface.
"Now it's time to say good-.. What the?" Tester tries to adjust her cannons toward Hood but those barrels do not move an inch. Not only that, she finds her body acts sluggish, as if invisible chains pin down her body.
"You insects, what did you do?"
"Glad that worked. You should be lucky that commanders gave me the prototype torpedoes for Fairey Swordfish." Ark Royal descends to the next of Hood."
Tester noticed that she has been surrounded by battleships in a triangle formation where she stands in the middle of a triangle .
.
"All ships, fire your barrage. After they are done, Ark Royal, drop your bombs in the area."
The main fleet dropped the barrage and airstrikes upon Tester. Th impacts from shells and bombs create a huge explosion and black smoke. Even Kansens with heavy hulls would not be able to stand such firepower.
That is, IF the target is a Kansens…
Just when everyone thought they finally defeated an advanced Siren, a figure slowly walks out of the smoke. Even with such a heated all-out attack, Tester still managed to stay alive. The cannons on her rigging have either bent to a wide angle or shortened with the thinner part melted. She can no longer fire any shell or bullet.
"Hahahaha…" laughed Tester. "To think you insects can manage to cause such damage to me. Not gonna lie, I underestimated you." She drops her broken rigging since it is nothing more than scrap metal now. "The party's not over yet you imbeciles. Let me show my tricks too."
Tester's chest suddenly shines crimson red light that quickly covers her entire body. This red light gives everyone a fearful chill. Whatever she intends to do, it is not going to end well.
She is going to self-destruct.
"All units fall back as far and as fast as you can," shouted Arthur. He cannot imagine a Siren-level of self-destruction can be. At the very least, it should pack a massive ton of force.
Kansens probably sensed similar signs and ran away with their maximum speed.
A pure-white light suddenly engulfed this entire area from Tester. After a brief moment the light comes with an ear-tearing sound and forceful wind. The shockwave bumps Arthur to the wall behind him. He can feel his vision quickly becomes blurry and then turns to pitch black. He cannot tell what happened afterwards.
