"Yes."

"Then we'll organize the ship girls, pack our things, and head back to the dense forest we passed through before? We'll set up camp there and wait for resources to be replenished..."

"Yes."

"Sigh..." Xiaobai sighed, shaking her head rapidly at Akagi, "Too much trouble..."

"What does the Admiral mean?" Akagi asked in a low voice.

Xiao Bai raised her hand and slapped her cheeks repeatedly, then opened her eyes and looked firmly at Akagi.

"Anyway... everything as usual! You guys go ahead and fight, I'll take care of the resources!"

"Admiral?" Akagi stared blankly at Shiro. She was about to ask something, but after seeing Shiro's determined gaze, she closed her mouth and nodded gently, "Okay... then I'll trouble you, Admiral."

"..." Xiaobai smiled at Akagi, "Then that's settled, Akagi. To avoid wasting time, Super Yamato and I will head back first."

"Ah."

After a brief conversation with Akagi, Xiaobai quickly turned and ran to a corner of the villa, found Super Yamato next to Deep Sea Yamato, pulled Super Yamato along, opened the dark vortex, and the two of them went in one after the other and disappeared.

In human cities.

A dark vortex appeared in the corner of the alley, and Xiaobai and Chaoda hurriedly walked out one after the other.

"Admiral? What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry... The train isn't leaving for another hour..." Chao Dahe was pushed out of the black vortex by Xiaobai. She walked with a puzzled look on her face, asking Xiaobai behind her.

"It's okay, we won't take the train today." Xiaobai's voice rang out from behind Chaoda.

"Huh? What..."

"The plan has changed. We need to choose a faster route!" Xiaobai said to Chao Yamato. "We can't rely on transportation anymore. We'll take the waterway! We'll cross the sea as fast as we can and head straight for the naval base!"

"??"

"I'll explain on the way. Let's go buy two tickets to the nearest coastal city first!"

"Oh, oh oh..."

Super Big and Little White emerged from the alley one after the other and ran wildly toward the train station.

Time is of the essence now, and there's no time for Xiaobai and Chaoda to relax and unwind.

After canceling their planned trip, Xiaobai and Chaoda first bought two tickets to the neighboring coastal city. They spent several hours rushing to the nearest pier, and then, taking advantage of the fact that no one was watching, they set off onto the ocean and headed towards the newbie naval base under the stars and moon.

The newbie naval base is almost separated from Ella's home by a vast ocean. This ocean isn't just a simple sea area; it's a truly enormous ocean, including safe waters and dangerous deep-sea areas. Strictly speaking, according to the theory that the shortest distance between two points is a straight line, crossing the ocean from Ella's home is the fastest route to the newbie naval base. However, theory is just theory. The ocean is so vast and dangerous that relying solely on the ship girls' footwork will eventually lead to exhaustion. In addition, there will be harassment encountered when crossing deep-sea areas, which will delay the journey. In reality, it might not be as fast as taking a high-speed train and circling around human cities.

However, the train wasn't run by Xiaobai's family, nor were the tracks built by them. If Xiaobai chose to take the train, he definitely couldn't reach the Newbie Town Hall within a day.

Since that's the case, why not just follow the Super Yamato and take a gamble by traveling by water, day and night? Both the Shiro and the Super Yamato are the kind of ships that are not affected by deep-sea ships. If we risk our lives and go on a long marathon, we might be able to reach the newbie naval base in a day?

then.

Shiro and Chaoda set foot on the sea with their hopes in their hearts.

then.

A day has passed.

A night has passed.

As the sunlight spilled onto every inch of the ocean, the next day quietly arrived.

"Pfft!"

Holding the map of the sea, Xiaobai watched as a ray of sunlight rose in the distance. Her steps slowly came to a halt, her face ashen.

"Even traveling like this... a whole day has passed and we've only covered half the distance..." Xiaobai sighed, drooping her head. "It seems that even traveling by water isn't much faster than taking the train..."

Both Shiro and Super Yamato have stamina above that of ship girls. Traveling at full speed all night didn't have much of an impact on their physical strength. However, even so, they still couldn't reach the destination. No matter how fast Shiro and Super Yamato were, it would still take them at least another day to get back to the newbie naval base. And today was already the second day that Akagi had mentioned.

Xiaobai felt utterly powerless. She put away the map and swayed as she nestled into Chao Yahe's arms.

"Admiral?"

"No, no, there's absolutely no way out now. Even I can't teleport back to the naval base..." As if venting her stress, Xiaobai hugged Chao Yamato tightly, rubbing her face against Chao Yamato's soft chest repeatedly. "What should we do... what should we do... if this keeps up, we'll be kicked out of Chapter 8... even if we can make a comeback, we won't have anywhere to live when we return to Chapter 8..."

"Admiral, there's always a way out. If we keep going, there might still be a chance..." Chao Yahe's face was flushed as she whispered a reminder to Xiaobai with her head down.

"Thank you, Super Yamato... But what chance do we have now, being on such a vast ocean... We're surrounded by water, and strategic resources can't just magically appear on the surface..." Shiro looked up at Super Yamato with a hint of grievance, "Maybe right now, Akagi and the others have already started fighting today's enemies... What are we going to do at this point..."

Xiaobai was talking to Chaoda.

suddenly.

Xiao Bai paused, her gaze turning in surprise to a distant stretch of sea.

at this time.

In the direction near the distant horizon, several slender figures are faintly appearing on the water in the distance, forming a line and heading in another direction before disappearing into the horizon in a flash.

That was a squad of ship girls.

Xiaobai stared blankly at the spot where the ship girls had disappeared, then suddenly her eyes lit up.

"what."

"It actually happened."

"Strategic resources on the sea."

Grand Swordsman

His Majesty the Sword Saint is exceptionally talented and valiant in battle.

When they make a move, it's always a stunning one.

In countless timelines, it cuts from the modern era to the Age of Gods, and then from the Age of Gods to the Lostbelts.

They even protected humanity during the great battle at the Temple of Time;

His achievements were immense, and he is revered by both gods and men.

Unfortunately, he's a deadpan character who's full of sarcastic remarks and witty banter.

I really didn't want to become the richest man in Rome.

What's the use of money? What's the use of wealth?

I have never received a salary, I have never touched money, and I have no interest in money because the happiest time for me was when I could barely afford to eat and stay warm for a month.

I envy those ordinary Roman citizens who receive tons of surprises every day, while I can only live a simple, unpretentious, and boring life.

written request for leave

The mobile game I've been playing recently updated this afternoon with a new card pool and new events, so I took a day off to grind it out.

The main reason is that I feel like I won't be in the mood to write whether I pull for the new character or not, so I might as well just take a day off.

Chapter 1886 Becoming an Outlaw (Mistaken)

On the azure sea, a dozen slender ship girls were rapidly moving across the water. As the ship girls swiftly glided across the water, a series of long, thin waves rippled across the calm surface, spreading outwards to both sides.

brush--

brush--

The ship girls disappeared into the distance in the blink of an eye, leaving behind the crisp sound of their toes cutting through the water.

These are a group of ship girls who look relaxed, as if they are strolling in their own backyard.

As the ship girls hurried along the water, they hummed melodious songs intermittently. Many of them would occasionally exchange glances, and then, in unison, they would reveal a happy smile.

"Huh huh huh~"

Among the ship girl group, the black-haired ship girl at the head couldn't stop smiling. She hummed a light and cheerful song, and her eyes were full of uncontrollable joy as she traveled.

"The captain seems to be in a good mood today~" Several ship girl crew members behind the black-haired ship girl said with a smile.

"Of course! We really made a fortune on this expedition!" The black-haired ship girl turned around with a smile upon hearing her teammate's words and excitedly told the crew behind her, "Our admiral mobilized almost half of the naval base's ship girl force for this expedition. I was worried about what would happen if the mission failed—but I didn't expect the expedition to be so much easier than I imagined, and the rewards to be so generous!"

"Ha ha!"

"Yeah, yeah, we feel like we really hit the jackpot on this expedition!" The ship girl crew members couldn't contain their excitement. They nodded repeatedly at the black-haired ship girl, then huddled together, chattering excitedly. "With the reward from this mission, our base's budget for future activities is finally secured!"

"Yes, when the Admiral went on a construction spree the other day and accidentally spent the entire budget, I was worried that our naval base might go bankrupt... But thankfully, this expedition mission has given us a much-needed boost, we're so lucky! We must keep an eye on the Admiral when we get back this time, and make sure he doesn't get carried away again! This reward is enough for us to live a good life for a long time!"

"Who knows, after we return to the naval base and pay off all the debts we owe, we might still have a considerable budget left to conquer the Chapter Sea!"

"That's great news!"

"When was the last time we entered the Chapter Sea?"

"It seems like it was half a year ago. Last time, the admiral fought tooth and nail with us to reach the second node of the third chapter. This time, he's determined to push through the final node of the third chapter!" The ship girls encouraged each other and said happily, "Let's all work together to push through to the sixth chapter as soon as possible. Once we reach the sixth chapter, we'll be on top of the world—no, we'll be on top of the world!"

"yeah!"

The ship girls raised their wrists and cheered in unison as they sailed on the sea. Their playful faces were filled with happy expressions of envisioning the future, as if all the ideas they had just expressed would slowly become reality step by step in the future.

"Alright, alright, concentrate. We haven't returned to the naval base yet." The black-haired ship girl in the lead glanced back at her team members with affection. After the ship girl team members cheered a few times, she finally spoke, reminding them, "Although we have achieved a great victory in this expedition, we must not let our guard down before returning to the naval base. Don't forget that this is not a safe area. Deep-sea amphibious ships may appear all around at any time. It would be bad if we were to capsize in a ditch."

"Yes--"

The ship girl crew members obediently lowered their raised wrists and then responded in drawn-out tones.

"However, this sea area is not a heavily polluted deep-sea area. Even if some deep-sea amphibious ships appear, they cannot be more powerful than the deep-sea amphibious ships in the chapter sea area."

“There are many of us, more than a dozen sisters. Most deep-sea ships would avoid us.”

"Fancy deep-sea warships are unlikely to appear!"

"Of course, we still need to be careful..."

"..."

The ship girls chatted as they sped across the sea.

As the ship girls hurried home, the azure water around them was gradually cooling down at a very subtle pace, and wisps of black smoke appeared faintly in the air.

The environment around the ship girls seemed to have been secretly filtered with a cool color tone.

The changes in the environment were gradually noticed by the ship girls who were on their way.

"Hmm? Have you guys sensed something different about the surroundings?" At one point, the black-haired ship girl in the lead noticed the environment around her. She frowned and reminded her companions behind her.

The black-haired ship girls' companions also noticed the change around them. They put away their playful expressions and looked around seriously.

"Ah...it seems like things have changed...I remember this sea area wasn't as desolate as it looks now..."

"The temperature has dropped, and the seawater has gotten colder..."

"It's the aura of the deep sea! The concentration of the aura of the deep sea in the area has increased!" the ship girls replied quickly. They immediately assumed battle stances and shouted to the black-haired ship girl, "There must be an Abyssal Fleet nearby!"

"The road home is indeed not safe..." Upon hearing this, the black-haired ship girl shook her head and chuckled softly.

"Captain, what should we do?" The ship girl crew members asked the black-haired ship girl for her opinion. "We just finished a mission and are in a hurry to get home. Should we avoid the Abyssal Fleet for now?"

“Indeed… it’s better to avoid trouble.” The black-haired ship girl nodded. After thinking for a moment, she said to her companions, “This sea area isn’t a trade route. No human ships pass through here. The only people who will pass through here are ship girls like us, so the threat from the Abyssal Fleet isn’t a big problem…”

"Let's get out of there quickly, I can sense the Abyssal ships reacting!" A ship girl pointed to the back of the group and said to the black-haired ship girl, "The Abyssal ships' detection capabilities have always been rather weak, let's run before they spot us!"

"What do you mean 'run'? This is a strategic retreat!" the black-haired ship girl corrected her companion, then pointed ahead and shouted seriously, "The whole team, increase speed!"

"Yes!"

The team members responded in unison, and then the ship girls quickened their pace, slicing through the water in a flash.

The ship girls have done a lot of things to avoid fighting with the Abyssal Fleet when it's not necessary, and they've gained a lot of experience. In theory, as long as they run away quickly before the Abyssal Fleet discovers them, they can shake them off in a few minutes at most.

but.

This time, the situation seems a little different.

After sensing the deep-sea reaction appearing at the rear of the formation, the ship girls ran and ran... for a full ten minutes, but the deep-sea reaction behind them was still there, the cold filter of the surrounding sea had not disappeared, and the deep-sea aura in the air even seemed to be getting stronger.

"Huh? That's strange..." The black-haired ship girl finally sensed something was wrong. She looked around at the changing environment, feeling the abyssal reaction behind her, and frowned. "Why does it feel like this process of shaking off the abyssal amphibious ship is taking so long... We've been running for ten minutes, and this abyssal reaction is still sticking to us. It feels like, it feels like..."

It was as if they were deliberately chasing after us...

The black-haired ship girl didn't say the last sentence aloud; she just kept the rather absurd statement to herself and glanced behind her in confusion.

That's unlikely...
