Suddenly, Shokaku's phone vibrated and a new message popped up.
Xianghe was stunned when he saw the name on the message box. He really didn't expect that the other party would send him a message at this time. To be honest, they haven't been in touch for a long time. It was quite unexpected that he suddenly contacted her today.
Count Spee: Where are you?
Crane: [Why are you asking this suddenly? Have you returned from the Northern League?]
Count Spee: [Well, we successfully found Xiang, and now we want to come back to find you. ]
Shokaku was a little distressed. They had already returned to the port area for such a long time. They couldn't go out again and continue to pretend to be someone else to meet with Spee and the others, right?
Just as Shokaku was thinking about how to reply, another message came from Spey.
Count Spee: [Can we go to the port area and wait for you to come back?]
Shokaku: [???]
Count Spee: [Ye, or Commander Su, should have gone out with you, right?]
Shokaku: [How did you know that?]
Count Spee: [I saw the video online. It's the same person.]
Now Xianghe knew he could no longer hide it. The commander happened to be out at sea killing monsters and was not around. Xianghe had no way of asking her how to respond. After much thought, he could only agree to her request to stay temporarily and wait for Su Xin to come back.
"Ah... Is it because I foresaw that the truth would be revealed that I'm in a bad mood today?" Shokaku pursed his lips, "...But now that I know about this, my mood hasn't improved..."
Xianghe thought it was strange, but she was really confused. In addition, Miss Hood always spoke to her with a pitiful but forced calm expression, which made her embarrassed to think about it, so she had to put this emotion aside.
It's on my heart.
In the evening, Miss Hood's tea party ended successfully.
Just as Xianghe was about to get up and go back to his room to rest, he saw Miss Hood's door being pushed open from the outside.
She was just about to say hello to the returning commander when she saw a tall and plump red figure behind Su Xin, who looked helpless.
Shokaku's body stiffened. The familiar feeling of the other party made her tremble. With excitement and resentment mixed together, she blurted out words without thinking: "Ah~ This person who is soaked all over, could it be the famous First Air Force of the Sakura Empire before the war?
Senior?"
The red-tailed and flamboyant woman raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and suddenly laughed terrifyingly
"You annoying guy, don't disturb the close relationship between me and the commander, otherwise... I don't mind getting rid of you myself~"
Chapter 269: Fishing out...a fox from the water?
"With the commander's fighting style, it seems that we have no chance of survival..." Ning Hai looked at the figure who was cutting a hole in the Siren ship and stuffing a torpedo in it not far away, and complained silently.
Yixian smiled upon hearing this, feeling proud of the little commander in battle, "Susu is already very good at handling small ships, so we don't need to worry about anything."
Tiancheng adjusted his tail silently, then looked at the commander who was shuttling quickly between the ships, "We have been facing destroyers and light cruisers these days. We have to let Susu try the battleship when there is a chance."
Yixian felt that the situation was not so bad. Although the battleship had strong firepower, given the small commander's mobility, hitting her would be harder than climbing to the sky.
As for the thick armor, if it doesn't work, just make a few more cuts at the same position and it will always be able to penetrate the armor. The main problem now is the aircraft carrier.
Aircraft carriers will launch carrier-based aircraft, which will conduct machine gun fire and drop bombs in the air, and will be assisted in the attack by torpedo planes. The pressure to dodge is much greater than when facing gunboats.
This is why aircraft carriers usually have to establish air superiority first when fighting. Only by ensuring air superiority can other ship girls fight without feeling restricted.
However, the young commander had no anti-aircraft equipment, nor any ship-borne aircraft equipment, so it would be difficult for him to face an aircraft carrier.
While the three were still thinking, the commander on the other end had already resolved the battle. He was holding a few metal nameplates and slowly approaching at a constant speed.
"No Rubik's Cube was dropped." Su Xin briefly summarized the results of the battle, "Ming Miao is not here, and it is difficult to bring back those parts. These brands are the only useful ones.
"It's okay. You've worked hard, Susu." Yixian took the nameplate from the commander's hand, which was still stained with seawater, before Tiancheng reached out his hand. Then he handed it to Ning Hai, who was watching eagerly, and asked her, "Do you want to take a break?"
Tiancheng was not annoyed. She was already very calm at this moment. The little commander couldn't run away anyway. Instead of insisting on attacking, it would be better to let the little wood who was gradually becoming smart discover it himself.
In addition, she now has to have close contact with the little conductor twice a day. The close contact when acting as a porter has already made her very satisfied. Although it is still a little embarrassing, Tiancheng has gradually become accustomed to this distance.
The young commander's physical strength after the upgrade was surprisingly good. Even though she had killed more than ten ships, she did not show any signs of fatigue and looked quite energetic.
"Um... no need, right? I can still continue."
Although Ning Hai wanted to earn more resources, she felt bad considering that the commander had been running for so long while they had been slacking off on the side. So she wanted to persuade Su Xin to take a break and let them play a few rounds.
In fact, Su Xin was not so obsessed with improving her combat skills. Mainly because she looked at the scientific research progress bar in the virtual port area, which was progressing slowly but was indeed rising, and she didn't want to take a break.
After several days of hard work, the monarch's scientific research progress bar has risen to about 10%.
Su Xin didn't know how the experience of each ship was calculated, but she had only fought against small ships before. Logically speaking, if she switched to a large ship, the experience bar might increase faster.
The bigger the families in the port area are, the better. Not only will they be more lively, but the safety of the ship girls will also be better guaranteed every time they perform combat missions.
"But if you keep fighting like this, all our trip here today will be in vain..." Ning Hai, who was basically just slacking off and making money for nothing, felt bad and tried to persuade the young commander to change players.
After hearing this, Su Xin thought about it for a while and realized that it was just right. "Then let's go find some large ships later. You guys take care of the frigates, and I'll try to see if I can deal with the large ships."
Ning Hai was still worried, but Yixian and Tiancheng both agreed. After all, they had confidence in the young commander's ability, and Su Xin's current physique was not much different from that of the ship girl. Even if she was hit by a shell, it would only
Just a little injured.
Besides, Su Xin has some metal pieces on her body that can add buffs. Even if she gets damaged, she can heal it with the small wrench attached to her body. Therefore, they are very confident in the little commander.
So the four of them began to look for a large ship around, and as luck would have it, they soon came across the Siren aircraft carrier which was wandering around.
The other side first released carrier-based aircraft in an attempt to seize the initiative, but Yixian and Ninghai took action one after another, destroying most of the carrier-based aircraft that had already taken off, and then lured away the aircraft carrier's escort ships, making room for the small commander.
Su Xin rushed forward with a knife in hand, dodged the attack of the carrier aircraft with explosive speed, and after closing the distance, began to repair the feet of the aircraft carrier.
The armor thickness of a large ship like an aircraft carrier is basically more than double that of a destroyer, so Su Xinxiu felt extremely painful when she stepped on it.
Even if her short knife was inserted to the end of the handle, it could not completely break the armor of the Siren aircraft carrier. She had to make several cuts in the same place to widen the cut, and then use the knife to make another cut on the original basis.
Breaking through the armor.
Doing this not only takes a long time, but also puts a strain on the little commander's body. After all, maintaining a high level of concentration for a long time is a very mentally exhausting task.
When Yixian and Ninghai both finished the battle, the little commander began to try to break the armor. All the ship girls could do was to help the little commander shoot down the carrier-based aircraft launched by the aircraft carrier to prevent the little commander from being injured by the bombs.
Su Xin was also very motivated. It didn't take her long to break the ship's armor. Then she stuffed two torpedoes into it at once and flew away quickly. With a loud "boom", the Siren aircraft carrier began to slow down and became paralyzed.
Not moving anymore.
"Ha!" Su Xin breathed a long sigh of relief. After confirming that the scientific research experience bar of the virtual port area had increased, she walked towards the wreckage of the Siren aircraft carrier with confidence, ready to collect the spoils.
This time the Siren was very generous. In the gradually sinking wreckage, two blue Rubik's Cubes lay quietly.
The young commander was very happy, as this was the first time she had encountered a "double yolk egg" in the past few days. Although it was just a drop in the bucket for the virtual port area, it was always good to have a surprise.
Su Xin moved closer and stretched out her hand to pick up the Rubik's Cube from the sinking wreckage, but she found that there seemed to be a faint light rising straight up from the deep blue seabed.
She was stunned and missed the opportunity to take the Rubik's Cube, allowing the slightly reddish light to reach the sea surface, pass through the two adjacent Rubik's Cubes, and then emit a dazzling glow.
Seeing this, the three ship girls standing not far away hurried over and retreated a short distance with Su Xin.
Su Xin watched as the red light gradually expanded its range, engulfing the Siren debris around the Rubik's Cube, and then gradually shrank back to form a hemisphere on the sea surface.
Tiancheng saw this and understood what happened. He just got rid of his original nervousness, but when he sensed a familiar breath, he frowned again, "This is..."
The slightly glaring dark red hemisphere gradually dissipated, and a tall beauty inside slowly straightened her waist. Her nine tails gradually stretched out and swayed naturally with the sea breeze.
She laughed, and her charming voice was mixed with something else, "Ah... the glorious First Fleet has finally seen the light of day again at this moment... hehe... let me see who woke up... my sister?!"
Chapter 270 This Akagi is very normal(?)
"Sister...sister?" The woman who had just woken up in the sea looked at the nearby Tiancheng, as if she couldn't believe it, and murmured to herself: "Is it...sister?"
Tiancheng's mood was also very complicated at the moment. Looking at the aircraft carrier coming towards her step by step, she still showed a warm smile and nodded affirmatively to the other party.
"It's me, Akagi. You... have accepted the transformation well..." Tiancheng paused, "At that time, I didn't get to see you grow up with my own eyes, but now... I am proud of you..."
Chicheng walked over in a daze, ignoring Su Xin, Ning Hai and Yixian who were looking at her, and just stopped in front of Tiancheng, looking carefully at her sister who had left the stage early in history.
"My...sister, are you proud of Akagi?"
"Yes." Tiancheng knew the glory that belonged to Akagi in history, so he affirmed her at this time, "It's really great that you can stand on your own."
Akagi clenched her fists. All the hardships and pains she had experienced in the past disappeared when she heard these words. She did not let Amagi down and accompanied the Sakura Empire for a long time.
She sniffed, showed some girlish behavior which was rare for her, and smiled sincerely at Tiancheng.
Due to historical reasons, Amagi and Akagi became familiar with each other very quickly and re-established their sisterly relationship, which was extremely natural, as if they had been together for a long time.
Three spectators stood by with confusion, witnessing the two sisters from meeting to recognizing each other and then to knowing each other. It was a family drama with a tragic process and a happy ending.
Su Xin was naturally very happy to have retrieved the boat, but Akagi's personality... she remembered that it should be quite twisted, right? Why did he look so well behaved now...
"Sister, Akagi came a little late. She doesn't even know what sister has been through."
"That's a long story." Amagi smiled and patted Akagi's shoulder gently, "Let me introduce you to our sisters in the port area first."
Akagi is not really interested. She certainly wants to be closer to her sister. If the commander is a good person, she will also consider getting closer to him. As for the ship girls of other camps... to be honest, she is not interested.
Big.
But since Tiancheng said so, she couldn't refuse, so she nodded obediently and listened to Tiancheng introduce them to her one by one.
"These are Yixian and Ninghai from Donghuang." Upon hearing this, Chicheng nodded at the two of them without saying anything further.
Seeing this, Tiancheng smiled at the two of them with a little apology. Ninghai and Yixian certainly wouldn't care about this, so Tiancheng continued to explain for Chicheng.
"This is our commander, Su Xin." Akagi nodded subconsciously and suddenly realized something was wrong.
She knew that Tiancheng would not joke in such a place, so Akagi looked at Su Xin who was standing steadily on the sea and her amber cat eyes, and suddenly became a little interested in the little commander.
"Commander? I am Akagi, the glorious First Fleet, known as the Invincible Fleet. As long as I have the carriers and aircraft I am proud of, I can easily overcome any battle situation~"
Su Xin listened to the self-introduction that was not much different from the one in the game and nodded. She made a simple assessment of Akagi's yandereness in her mind and found that the symptoms were unexpectedly mild. The original obsession with the commander in the voice was gone.
, I felt relieved.
"Hello, Sister Akagi, just call me Susu, and welcome to join us."
"The commander is really good at talking~" Akagi narrowed his eyes, "I wonder if he is so close to everyone?"
The young commander opened her mouth to answer, but Yixian interrupted her and said, "Everyone in the port area is a sister, so of course we all call each other sisters."
Akagi looked at Yixian, who had a gentle and amiable smile on his face, and touched his slightly sharp nails with the tip of his thumb. Then, realizing that Su Xin and her sister Tiancheng were present, he also smiled.
"Ah... I see. I understand."
Ning Hai always felt goose bumps on his body, so he subconsciously hid behind Yixian. The little commander also felt something, but his Taoism was not very deep, and after Chicheng restrained his hostility, he could not detect the source.
Now that there are new members joining, they will of course not be able to kill the wild monsters anymore. So the five of them went straight back home and prepared to take Akagi to get familiar with the people in the port area. As for other things, it will not be too late to make a decision tomorrow.
All the way back to Hong Kong, Akagi followed Amagi and listened to Amagi describe his long experience.
"I fought in another port area before, but later I retired due to injuries and some eye problems."
Akagi pursed her lips. She remembered the earthquake in history that destroyed the keel of Amagi and caused her sister to leave the battlefield early. Hearing the news that Amagi was injured again, she suddenly became nervous.
"Don't worry, Susu helped me later." Tiancheng smiled, his memories full of tenderness, "She took me in, a good-for-nothing, accompanied me to recover, helped me find a way, and in the end...she succeeded."
Tiancheng pursed her lips and glanced at the embarrassed little commander out of the corner of her eye. The other party's cute appearance made her curl her lips involuntarily, "Thanks to Susu, I was reborn."
Su Xin was too shy to listen any longer, so she quietly changed her seat and ran to Ning Hai, who was on the outermost side, and stopped listening to Tian Cheng's praises.
But Akagi kept these words in her heart. She was deeply obsessed with Amagi. Even though Kaga had been by her side in history, it could not change the pain of losing her loved ones.
Now, thanks to the little commander, she was able to meet Amagi again, which made Akagi's favorability towards Su Xin increase a lot, and she subconsciously put Su Xin into their camp of the Sakura Empire, believing that Su Xin was everything to the Sakura Empire.
Things.
At this moment, Su Xin didn't know that she had been branded in other people's hearts. She only knew that the weather, which was originally quite good, suddenly started to rain.
The rain started suddenly and no one brought an umbrella before going out. Only Tiancheng and Yixian had their own umbrellas, but their umbrellas were really small and could only cover two people at most.
Tiancheng and Yixian both wanted to take care of Su Xin first, but the young commander had his own ideas.
She adjusted the hat on her head, put on the hood of her coat, zipped it up, and it became a simple raincoat. "It's okay. You don't have a hat, and your hair will be uncomfortable when it gets wet. You guys should hold it. I have
The hat is enough.”
The young commander didn't give Tiancheng and Yixian any chance after he finished speaking. He jumped to the front in two steps. Tiancheng and Yixian had to hold up umbrellas to shield themselves and the other person from the falling raindrops.
“Look.” Tiancheng’s tone was gentle and full of pride, “Our commander is such a person, so everyone loves her very much.
"I think you'll like it too, Akagi."
Akagi narrowed his eyes, tilted his head to look at Amagi, whose feelings were obvious, then glanced at the short figure not far ahead with his hood pulled tight and his head tucked in, and smiled softly, "Indeed, that should be the case..."
