"..."
"......Hehehe."
Little Zeppelin frowned and glanced at the Royal Ark beside him as if he couldn't understand anything at all, wondering why this person was making strange noises again.
"Ahem." Royal Ark seemed to suddenly remember that there was someone beside him, so he cleared his throat and didn't speak seriously.
Little Zeppelin was helpless, "Why did you come out with us?"
Royal Ark said righteously, "Of course it is to protect the safety of the expelled sisters. Although the activity is simple, we still can't take it lightly."
"...You're here just to see Kisaragi, right?"
"And Eldridge-chan!" Royal Ark replied.
Little Zeppelin couldn't understand why there was someone like Royal Ark. Not only did he like children, but he was also extremely picky about the children's conditions.
It has to be a destroyer.
No matter how good your figure is or how childish you look, as long as the shape is right, she will like it.
The same is true in reverse. No matter how short it is, how flat its armor is, or how petite it looks, even if it looks like a destroyer except for its aircraft carrier shape, she would not be interested in it at all.
Yes, I am talking about Led Zeppelin.
Originally, little Zeppelin had no objection to the Royal Ark going out to sea with the team, but Helena had warned her about it before leaving.
"Zeppelin, I know you are actually much more mature than you look, but since your ship equipment is still relatively... immature, it is inevitable that a large ship will follow you."
"Ms. Hood is not suitable for taking care of children... You know her eyesight is not very good. If I leave it to her... I am actually not very reassured."
"Guanghui doesn't seem to have this plan. Although I think she is fully capable of doing this, she seems to have made an appointment with Miss Hood..."
"Especially Sakura Empire... forget it. I always feel like something terrible is going to happen. After thinking about it, I had no choice but to ask the Royal Ark to help look after it."
"I... I'm not worried about her, I'm just afraid that her nature will be hard to change. She has finally changed her image a lot, so for Su Su to relax a little..."
Helena looked a little embarrassed. "Can you please help... keep an eye on her? Because you are an aircraft carrier, it is relatively safe..."
Little Zeppelin had already forgotten what her expression was at that time, but she agreed anyway, but she didn't expect that the Royal Ark would choose the "tail" method of action.
"..I still want to chat with the Commander."
Little Zeppelin glanced at the Royal Ark and saw that it was staring at the black spots in front of it, which was really hard to understand.
"...Can you see clearly this way?"
The Ark Royal is very real, "it's hard to see clearly."
"Then why are you so far behind? Why don't you just walk together?"
"No." The expelled sister said solemnly, "I am not worthy of being surrounded by the expelled sisters!"
Little Zeppelin: ?
"I am already very satisfied to be able to watch the sisters being expelled silently. If I really can go there..."
Royal Ark suddenly fell silent in the middle of his speech. No one knew what he was thinking about. He laughed twice and then sniffed as if he was left cold.
"Well, anyway, I just want to be a guardian quietly. As long as I can make my sisters happy, I will be satisfied!"
"This evil will survive even at the end of the world..." Little Zeppelin was annoyed, "If you don't go over, I'll have to stay here forever, right?"
"I really want to give her a shot!"
“Toot—
Little Zeppelin was stunned for a moment, he took out his cell phone from his pocket and took a look at it, and found that it was a message from the little commander.
SX: [You and Sister Royal Ark can come together. You don’t have to be so far away. ]
SX: [But remember to have Royal Ark sort out its image before coming back, so as not to scare Kisaragi and the others.]
"Hmm." Little Zeppelin was happy. "Hey, the commander is calling us to go together."
"Ahh? Really?! As expected of a little angel... You're willing to give me a chance to interact with the expelled sisters! I'm so touched... Hehe... Hiss."
Little Zeppelin heard the other party sniffing from time to time and thought he had a cold. He looked at him suspiciously and found that the color near Royal Ark's nose seemed to be wrong.
"...Are you having a nosebleed?"
"...ah?"
"It's really flowing... wipe it off quickly, it's all frozen!"
"Sister Royal Ark, are you cold...?"
“No no no no no…”
Ruyue tilted her head, "Then why do you keep wiping your nose... You should rest well if you have a cold. It's a pity that Ruyue's gloves are too small, otherwise I could lend them to you."
"Ahem..." Royal Ark seemed to be overwhelmed and quickly changed the paper covering his nose, "I... I am just too happy..."
"That's good...ah, the hair tie is the one that Ru Yue helped me tie on the train!"
Royal Ark covered his nose and nodded frantically, "Mm-m-m-m-m-m!"
"Sister still kept it... Hehe... Ruyue is very happy!"
Su Xin silently watched the expeller change another piece of paper, and by the way, she looked up at the hair tie. It was black, with two strawberry-shaped decorations, and it was obviously a style that children would like.
As for why he was still wearing it... Su Xin wondered if Royal Ark hadn't washed his hair since then.
Fortunately, the Siren ship they encountered interrupted the commander's curiosity about this, and he picked up his sword, accelerated, and rushed forward.
Kisaragi and Eldridge attacked the other two Siren ships from the left and right. Little Zeppelin fished on the edge with his secondary guns, while the Royal Ark released its carrier aircraft to ensure safety.
Anyway, it's all about gaining experience. As long as the Siren ship is not sunk on the spot and there is room for the small commander to finish off the enemy, there is no problem at all. So everyone actively participated in it.
Ruzuki's side was making smooth progress. Although she was usually timid, she performed extremely well when facing the Siren ships that had been blown up.
He kept throwing grenades while running, and could raise his cannon to fight back when avoiding artillery bombardment, which made the Royal Ark very excited.
"Ah... The way Destroyer Sister fights is so cute! I also like her expression when she fights back with the cannon!"
Little Zeppelin glanced at her without commenting, but in his heart he agreed with what she said. Ruyue's fighting skills were indeed more sophisticated than he had imagined.
But Eldridge seemed to be in some trouble.
Ju Gaogao's fighting style was very similar to her usual state, lazy and she didn't seem to care much about the upcoming artillery fire. Instead, she picked up a grenade and threw it forward.
The skill [Rainbow Project] allows her to take the attack of the Siren Ship head-on at the moment when she cannot avoid the damage.
As for the triggering condition: when the enemy's artillery fire misses, the splashing water that falls on your body can be considered a kind of damage, although it is not painful.
This time, she still adhered to the fighting style of not dodging if possible. She casually pulled out a torpedo from the torpedo rack on her waist and was thinking of throwing it into the sea.
I didn't expect that leather gloves would become extremely slippery after getting wet and freezing, and mittens were not suitable for gripping.
So the thick and long torpedo slipped from Eldridge's palm when she swung her hand over her head, fell into the sea water at her heels, and rushed out in the opposite direction.
After praising Kisaragi, Royal Ark was breathing hot air at Eldridge, "The lifting gesture is also very cute! The slow look is too unfair, ah, my heart is struck-ah!"
"boom!"
Little Zeppelin looked at the Royal Ark that was struck by lightning not far away from him, and thought that after all, they were in the same port area, so it would be better to pay more attention to it.
As a result, just after taking two steps forward, I heard the other party making a humming sound.
"...I was hit by the love of the expelled sister! So happy! Hehe...It would be nice if Kisaragi sister could give me one too..."
Little Zeppelin had a blank expression on his face. He looked at the three people in front of him and had no time to pay attention to this side. That was good.
She raised her hand and fired another shot at the Royal Ark.
"Ah! It hurts! I am not the one who expelled my sister and I cannot accept it!!"
"...Destroy it, quickly."
Chapter 469 Ark Squad 2
Given that there were two traitors in the five-man team, the Royal Ark, which was surrounded and damaged by friendly forces, obviously could no longer move at a higher speed.
Although Su Xin had a [small wrench] that could heal injuries anytime and anywhere, for some reason, Royal Ark was very firm in his refusal and refused to treat her no matter what the persuasion was.
Not only was he not repairing it now, but he didn't even plan to take a bath in the pool after returning to the gathering point, which gave Su Xin a headache.
Fortunately, the injury was not serious. If converted into human diseases, it would probably be similar to a sprained ankle. He could walk and run normally, but traveling on the sea would be much slower.
Now that there is a wounded member in the team who runs slower than Su Xin, today's monster-killing mission can basically come to an end.
The wind was strong at sea, and everywhere I looked was water, with nothingness everywhere. If I stood there for a long time, not only would I get a headache from the wind, but my wet shoes would also make me feel uncomfortable.
Su Xin thought about it and decided to give everyone a day off today.
Anyway, it would take them a lot of time to return by the same route, and there would be nothing to do if they went back so early, so it would be better to wait for everyone and have dinner together.
As soon as this idea was proposed, it was affirmed by the two destroyers.
Children, of course, prefer to play with friends rather than boring battles. Talking and laughing is much more interesting than fighting.
As for the venue…
Su Xin looked around and indeed could not see any island, not even a place to rest.
In desperation, she decided to lead everyone towards the wreckage of the Siren ships that had not yet sunk.
Siren technology is already leading the world, and even its mass-produced cannon fodder ships are of excellent quality.
In addition, Su Xin's fighting style basically relies on knives and torpedoes. There is no bombardment of large-caliber main guns, and parts that are prone to explosions are deliberately avoided.
This resulted in the ship destroyed by Su Xin being generally intact, and the sinking speed was not very fast. The equipment and facilities inside were basically just paralyzed, and there was no chain explosion or the like.
On the other hand, Eldridge and Ruyue blew up the ships as fast as they sank. Now most of the Siren ships had sunk, so it was impossible to get up there.
The five people boarded the Siren ship led by Su Xin and entered the empty command room. There was no table in the room except for some devices with their screens turned off.
Fortunately, the tilt of the ship was not serious. Su Xin took a blanket from the space, and several people sat on the ground, forming a small circle.
There is no air conditioning in the command room, and no heating equipment at all. This is probably because the Siren ships are all unmanned mass-produced ships, so there is no corresponding design.
The little ones were looking forward to getting on the boat, but after sitting for a while they started to feel bored.
The main reason was that Ruyue was a bit restless. Except for Royal Ark, everyone present was very familiar to her, so she was not as timid as usual. Instead, she showed some rare activity like a child.
"Hey, sis, can it be used to watch TV...?"
Su Xin turned her head to look at the large screen that was integrated into the wall and shook her head, "It probably won't work. It might take some time to remove it and modify it.
"Oh, what a shame! I wanted to watch cartoons with everyone..."
Little Qi Peilin knew the "cartoons" that Ruyue mentioned. She was forced to watch quite a few of them. The plots were simple, full of friendship and positive energy. They were purely for children and not very interesting.
But she didn't really say this out loud. She just couldn't help yawning and feeling sleepy while watching the show. She was actually relieved that she couldn't use the big screen this time.
Royal Ark silently took note in his mind, planning to use the money he saved to install a huge screen in the room, so that he would have an excuse to watch TV with the destroyer.
After Eldridge stopped moving, he started to feel sleepy every day. It wasn’t that he needed sleep, but he was just in standby mode out of habit.
Every time Xiao Ruyue went to play with her, she would wake up with just a slight shake. She didn't look as groggy as when she just woke up. It was probably because she kept her phone on low power on a daily basis.
As an aircraft carrier with a child's body and an adult's heart, Zeppelin has always wanted to do something profound, such as reading some modern poetry or prose collections.
This hobby was developed in her world.
At that time, Su Xin existed as a shadow, with nothing on her body. Faced with day after day of repairs and standby, she could only look up things in her mind to entertain little Zeppelin.
At first, the other party liked listening to fairy tales, but later he preferred Su Xin's slightly obscure literary works.
It's a pity that after coming to this world, she found that some books could not be found on the market at all, and she didn't know where Su Xin read them from.
She couldn't find any information about Leo Tolstoy or Dante Alighieri on the Internet, which made her even begin to doubt whether the stories were made up by the young conductor on the spot.
Fortunately, Su Xin had so many special features that little Zeppelin didn't want to take them too seriously, but he did keep the habit of reading.
Unfortunately, the situation today is not very suitable for reading.
An expulsion controller, who had been warned to keep a close eye on the situation, was grinning foolishly at the ankle that had been hit by a torpedo.
The guy on the opposite side who could emit electric shocks had already rested his head on the commander's legs, drowsy and looking like he was about to fall into a deep sleep.
The energetic and childish friend next to her was now boldly begging him to take her out to play, saying that she wanted to try fishing.
My goodness, why are you fishing in the middle of winter? Besides, the boat is sinking right under my butt. What fish with a crazy brain would come here?
But little Zeppelin was very much attracted to Ruyue's tricks. Her life on the boat was full of bitterness and hatred, and she had never experienced the soft and sweet way of getting along with others like children.
