After completing supplies, the fleet continued northward.
Normally, sailing on the sea is not something that can give you a novel experience all day long, but for Wang Yu, who has just come to this world, seeing the various scenery in this world is a kind of fun.
During the voyage, he saw the Broken Islands dotted all over the place. Although most of these islands were ordinary, there were always one or two with peculiar shapes, such as the natural stone arches formed on the sides of the islands, such as the pillars sticking out. Straight peaks on the sea surface, such as volcanic islands that are hundreds of meters above the water and still smoking at the top...
In the meantime, Wang Yu even witnessed the eruption of a volcanic island. Although the eruption was not violent at that time, it was still loud as thunder and could be heard clearly even on a warship several kilometers away.
The golden-red lava flow met the sea and erupted into white mist that covered the sky. It looked quite spectacular and was a feast for Wang Yu's eyes.
In general, the number of various islands in the ocean of this world is indeed much greater than that of the previous world.
Habara Mio said that the further north you go, the closer you get to the coastline of the main continent, so there will be more and more of these islands.
And when they, the port commanders, first took office and had insufficient troops, they would rely on these islands as a line of defense to resist the Sirens.
It is said that as long as the battleship is separated from the siren by a mountain, the siren will not be able to detect the battleship, thus giving the battleship the opportunity to attack with high-intensity firepower.
The specific principle seems to be related to the ship girls - these magical girls will give the battleship a "hard to detect" characteristic, which is equivalent to giving the battleship a "hidden value", and this hidden value is smaller than the normal sight range. of,
Unless the siren approaches within a certain range of the battleship, or the battleship takes the initiative to fire, the siren will not be aware of the battleship's presence.
Taking advantage of this and cooperating with the archipelago to cover the warship, a warship can be hidden under the Siren's nose.
And if the island is better hidden, even if the warships continue to fire and attack, they will be less likely to be discovered by the sirens.
Wang Yu is already a little numb to the strange characteristics of the sirens and shipgirls in this world. If he really wants to complain about them one by one, he may be exhausted to death.
So he decisively accepted this setting.
He has even begun to imagine that he and Annapolis will squat behind an island in the future, using the high-throwing trajectory of the battleship to continuously attack the Siren without the Siren being able to detect him.
Stop talking and worry, in the blink of an eye, another few days passed.
After less than half a month of sailing, the fleet finally crossed a long distance and was about to arrive at Hahara Mio's port area in a remote corner of the northeast of the main continent.
Looking at the terrain, Wang Yu felt that the geographical location of her port area in this world was somewhat similar to the Anchorage Naval Base in Alaska in the previous world. Of course, the specific location was further south.
What's more interesting is that the fleet did encounter siren threats several times during this voyage.
However, Hahara Mio regarded these siren threats as an opportunity to train the low-level ship girls in the fleet, so every time a siren appeared, some warships would take the initiative to leave the fleet to eliminate them...
Wang Yu and Annapolis didn't even have a chance to take action.
A powerful super cruiser actually became a spectator when facing the sirens. This was really a wonderful experience. Wang Yu said that he was really full of novelty after coming to this world.
As the fleet moved north, the temperature gradually dropped.
The lowest temperatures in the morning and evening these days have been less than ten degrees.
Wang Yu had to dig out a heavy coat from his room and put it on.
He learned from Hahara Mio that when he arrived, it happened to be the late autumn in this world, and the weather would only get colder and colder, so he needed to take measures to keep warm.
The lowest average monthly temperature in her port area every year is probably at the turn of the year, and it will drop to about minus five to six degrees Celsius.
Occasionally there are extreme cases where it can be even lower.
And the nights will get longer.
Wang Yu only got one piece of information - the changes in day and night time proved that this planet also has yellow and red angles...
To put it bluntly, it is useless worldview information.
As the fleet continued to move forward, one morning, Wang Yu finally saw the land in the direction of the advance under the reflection of the rising sun.
That is the southwest-northeast coastline of the main continent here.
Wang Yu couldn't help but feel tears filling his eyes. If he hadn't cared about his own image, he would have rushed to the front of the deck, and then raised his arms and shouted "land" just like the sailors in the Age of Discovery did when they saw the mainland. .
After a long voyage spanning two worlds, he was finally able to reach a port where he and the battleship could rest.
As the fleet approached the coastline, Wang Yu looked at the land landscape that was getting closer and closer.
The coastline is rugged and complex, and more importantly, the coastline does not have a large area of gentle beaches as imagined, but is dominated by steep and steep mountain peaks.
Looking around, you can see mountains with altitudes ranging from a few hundred meters to over a thousand meters, which constitute the main coastal landscape of the main continent in this area.
"The fjord landscape..."
Wang Yu murmured to himself: "Mio Hahara is right, the place where her port area is is really...beautiful."
The blue sky, blue sea, steep peaks, white snow on the mountain tops, and the wonderful scene of the blending of mountains and sea may only be seen in this fjord landform.
Wang Yu has never seen such a scene before, this is the first time.
The fleet reduced its speed and began to approach the coastline.
Looking closer, those peaks look even more spectacular.
The port area of Hahara Mio is built in a relatively spacious fjord.
For the ship girl, the location of the port area was easy to find. Following some buoys, the fleet lined up and slowly sailed towards a waterway between the mountains.
Hahara Mio asked Wang Yu to follow the fleet's trajectory. In order to prevent the sirens from invading, she laid a large number of mines outside the fjord, so if she did not sail according to the standard route, she would be likely to hit a mine and sink.
The fleet entered the fjord waterway, leaving the open sea behind.
Wang Yu noticed that there were some lighthouses standing on the mountains on both sides of the waterway.
Since it was daytime, the lighthouse was not lit.
But once a fleet needs to enter the port at night or in foggy weather, these lighthouses will light up and form a direction beacon to guide the fleet forward.
"The fully automated lighthouse is maintained by the ship girls."
That's what Hahara Mio said.
It seems that her port area is indeed fully equipped.
As the fleet sailed several kilometers in the fjord and bypassed two ridges, Wang Yu finally saw the port area of Hahara Mio.
It is a flat area that is rare in the fjord landscape, with beautiful scenery and pleasant environment.
A large gray mark can be seen on the coast, surrounded by a breakwater that goes deep into the sea. It is a berth for warships to dock and anchor, and it is also the "port" for these warships.
On the land within the port, there is a not very wide river that flows into the sea along the terrain. Along the river bank, there is a series of large and small houses with different architectural features. Maybe it is a residential area in the port area?
Between the port and the river's estuary, Wang Yu found a two-story building that looked pretty good in size. It should be the main office building in the port area.
In other areas, Wang Yu also saw various buildings with different functions.
Overall, it looks like a coastal town.
Wang Yu couldn't help but sigh. It's really irritating to see people outnumber people. Compared with the military bases in the previous time and space that were basically fortresses and couldn't see any trace of nature, living in this kind of place feels like living in a paradise. .
While sighing, he controlled the battleship to slowly stop in an open sea, waiting for Hahara Mio to arrange matters related to ship repair.
