The deep-sea amphibious ship that appeared behind him hadn't seen him even once from beginning to end, so why was it chasing him so relentlessly...?
Ok? ? ?
Just now.
The black-haired ship girl, looking back at the sea behind her, widened her eyes in disbelief.
Right in the black-haired ship girl's field of vision, she saw a tall, jet-black figure on the horizon behind her fleet, relentlessly chasing after her.
It was the figure of a humanoid creature that was covered with a strong aura of the deep sea. It was tall, with all four limbs intact, and had skin as white as snow. It had black hair and wore a black robe. In particular, it had a pair of crimson eyes that were almost indistinguishable from those of a human.
Now those eyes were fixed on their team without any emotion, and it felt like a wild beast out hunting for food, eyeing its defenseless prey!
hiss----
Upon seeing the black figure appear behind her, the black-haired ship girl gasped, her face filled with extreme panic.
A humanoid deep sea...
Although the black-haired ship girl's seniority cannot compare with that of the top-tier ship girls, and she can't be said to be very knowledgeable, there are some things that she feels she can tell the truth from the falsehood at a glance, even if she hasn't seen them with her own eyes.
"How is this possible?!?!" The black-haired ship girl screamed almost incoherently, "How... how could the Deep Sea Dean be here?!"
"team leader??"
"Captain, what did you say??"
Upon hearing the black-haired ship girl's scream, the ship girl crew members instinctively turned around.
"Don't turn your head! Don't look! Don't make eye contact with that thing!" the black-haired ship girl shouted to her companions. "That thing is beyond our capabilities right now! Forget everything else, close your eyes, and run towards the naval base with all your might!"
"Huh?! Oh, oh, oh..."
The ship girl crew members were startled by the black-haired ship girl's performance, but they quickly turned their heads away from looking behind them. Then, listening to the black-haired ship girl's words, they frantically accelerated forward.
As the ship girls accelerated at full speed, their figures flying across the sea became erratic once again, and the dark figure on the other side of the horizon was temporarily left out of sight.
Chapter 1887 A Body No Longer Pure
"Phew... thank goodness, we're saved..." The black-haired ship girl glanced at the horizon behind her out of the corner of her eye, pressed her pounding heart, and murmured softly, "Luckily, we're fast enough... she can't catch up... how did that terrifying thing even appear in this kind of sea... I must report this to the admiral when we get back..."
The black-haired ship girl raised her hand and wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.
however.
The instant she raised her hand.
boom--
A deafening roar erupted from the other side of the horizon, shaking the surrounding sea. Then, in the black-haired ship girl's vision, vast expanses of deep-sea energy rose from the horizon like a tsunami, crashing against the surface and throwing a jet-black, streak-like object toward her.
When the black-haired ship girl saw the "thing" that was being violently thrown towards her by the abyssal aura, her pupils instinctively contracted.
—It was a woman with black hair and a black robe.
It was almost just a fleeting moment.
The woman with black hair and a black robe rode the intense abyssal aura and arrived at the side of the black-haired ship girls' group like a cannonball. She stared expressionlessly at the dozen or so ship girls who were still running away with their heads down, without any mercy or sympathy in her eyes.
"Oh no! Turn around and face the enemy..." the black-haired ship girl shouted to her companions.
However, she was ultimately too late.
The black-robed woman who had reached the black-haired ship girl's side coldly raised her hand and waved it at the ship girls. The deep-sea aura beneath the black-robed woman rushed towards the ship girls like a cloud of mist, turning into a giant mouth that swallowed the ship girls directly into the dense deep-sea airflow.
At that moment, a large amount of deep-sea energy flooded their bodies. The ship girls felt their limbs were ice-cold, and their senses seemed to be gradually leaving their bodies. The black-haired ship girl's companions had almost no time to react before collapsing into the cloud of deep-sea energy. The black-haired ship girl didn't last more than a few breaths either. Her body swayed violently a few times, and she stared at the black-robed woman who appeared in front of her with the most desperate eyes, but she still knelt down helplessly on the water and collapsed onto the surface of the water.
The deep-sea aura that raged on the water's surface then contracted.
The ship girls, who had been full of energy at the beginning, all lay on the surface of the water, unconscious.
The woman in the black robe silently watched the ship girls before her.
After a while, the woman in black robes walked to the side of the black-haired ship girl who was lying on the water. She gently squatted down, reached out and turned the black-haired ship girl's body over. Then she stretched out her slender fingers and poked the black-haired ship girl's face and nose. After confirming that the black-haired ship girl did not react, she withdrew her hand, stood up and nodded to the billowing smoke behind her.
"Admiral, everything's taken care of."
"Well done!" A clear, delicate voice came from the smoke behind the woman in black robes. Then, a petite, snow-white figure emerged from the mist, ran to the woman in black robes, pulled her up, and gave her a grateful smile. "Thank you, Super Yamato!"
"..." Chao Da lowered his head, a faint blush appearing on his expressionless face, "...According to what the admiral said before, we did not use physical means to hurt them."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work." Xiaobai nodded with satisfaction. She squatted down next to the black-haired ship girl and carefully examined her face. "...After all, we're only here to borrow some temporary supplies. It wouldn't be good if we hurt these innocent ship girls... Super Yamato, come here for a second."
Upon hearing this, Chao Dahe walked over to Xiaobai's side, obediently kneeling on the water's surface, looking directly at Xiaobai who was squatting next to the black-haired ship girl.
"Open the portal," Shiro said to Chao Yamato.
"Okay." Chao Dahe reached out to the side, and with a whoosh, a pitch-black vortex taller than a person appeared in the air.
Xiaobai cupped the black-haired ship girl's cheeks, gently tapped her forehead with his finger, and the Admiral's Network was activated, drilling into the black-haired ship girl's body along his finger.
"Mmm..."
While unconscious, the black-haired ship girl frowned slightly, a faint blush spreading across her cheeks. Her long legs instinctively came together and rubbed against each other a few times. As a result, her ship equipment space opened, and various items of all sizes poured out of the space and landed on the water's surface.
Not much junk fell out of the ship's equipment space. Most of it consisted of cosmetics and daily necessities, with a few books, mobile phones, tablets, and snack bags such as sunflower seeds and peanuts. The space was quickly emptied. After the junk was emptied, a large amount of supplies such as oil, ammunition, steel, and aluminum were poured out of the ship's equipment space.
"Super Yamato, catch it!" Shiro called out to Super Yamato.
Super Big nodded, and pulled the dark vortex that was beside her to the bottom of the black-haired ship girl's ship equipment space. It gulped down all the resources in the black-haired ship girl's ship equipment space, and these resources would fall into Super Big's "corridor" with teleportation ability, waiting for Xiao Bai's next allocation.
After tilting for a while, the black-haired ship girl's ship equipment space was soon empty.
Just before the black-haired ship girl's ship equipment space emptied, following a large amount of resources, a small, glittering silver bag suddenly fell out of the black-haired ship girl's ship equipment space and plummeted towards the entrance of the dark vortex.
"Huh? What's this?" Little White quickly grabbed the bag that had fallen out.
The ship girl's equipment space can be roughly understood as a large suitcase that she can carry with her. The order of the items in this suitcase is based on priority. Generally speaking, the items placed at the front are everyday items that the ship girls consider to be frequently used and easy to access. The items placed at the back, especially those placed after strategic resources, are probably of extremely high importance to the ship girl herself.
Xiaobai looked curiously at the small bag in the black-haired ship girl's ship equipment space.
"Is this thing... something very important to this ship girl in her subjective consciousness?" Xiaobai blinked and muttered to herself curiously.
The small bag was only the size of Xiaobai's palm. It was shiny silver all over, bulging and sealed tightly, with a narrow strip of paper tucked into the zipper.
Xiao Bai picked up the note and glanced at it a few times.
The note contained only one simple line: "Thank you to the XX Naval Base for your outstanding contribution in this support mission. This is a token of our gratitude."
"Hmm? This... is this a reward for these ship girls' expedition? Are they ship girls who have finished their expedition and are preparing to return to their base?" Xiaobai muttered to herself, holding the bag in her hands. Then, she curiously opened the bag and found that it was indeed filled with deep-sea metal. "Wow... it really is..."
"Are you going to steal it?" Super Yamato leaned closer, supporting his dark vortex, and asked Shiro like a bandit carrying a sack.
"Forget about this... It's just some very ordinary low-grade deep-sea metal." Xiaobai gave a wry smile and shook his head. "These ship girls must have just returned from an expedition. This is their reward for this trip, which they're going to take back to their naval base. They'll be very sad if we take it from them now, so let's leave it to them..."
Xiaobai weighed the small bag in his hand, looked at the black-haired ship girl's face for a while, and then silently took out a piece of dark deep-sea metal from his ship equipment space and put it into the black-haired ship girl's small bag.
"This piece of deep-sea metal dropped by the deep-sea frigate in Chapter 8... I'm really sorry for offending you ladies this time, consider this a small apology... As for its value... I'm not sure, but it should be at least several hundred times more profitable than your expedition." Xiaobai muttered to herself as she carefully tied the small bag shut, then tossed it back into the black-haired ship girl's ship equipment space, clasped her hands together, and earnestly prayed, "Amitabha."
Xiaobai then threw the other wet debris from the sea back into the black-haired ship girl's ship equipment space, and finally laid the black-haired ship girl flat back on the sea surface.
"Admiral, shall we go to the next one over there?" Super Yamato looked at Shiro and put down the black-haired ship girl, then gestured to the other ship girls lying nearby and asked Shiro.
"We haven't finished collecting them yet, no rush, no rush."
Xiaobai remained quite calm. After putting down the black-haired ship girl, she stretched out her finger and gently tapped the black-haired ship girl's forehead again.
"Mmm..."
The sleeping black-haired ship girl let out a soft moan, and white light enveloped her. Then, a snow-white ship appeared behind her.
"What we just took was only the spare resources from this young lady's ship equipment space... She still has quite a few resources stored in her ship equipment." Xiaobai said to Chao Yamato, then stood up and adjusted the black-haired ship girl's ship equipment to a more suitable position. He then began to explore the ship equipment again. "Luckily, I've become quite familiar with ship girls' ship equipment lately, so I know where they store their resources... It's here. Just touch it, fasten it, press it..."
Gulp gulp gulp——
"Look! They're out! Super Big and you, come and get them!"
"Yes!"
"Be careful, don't get it on your face..."
"Um……"
Wow... there's so much...
Xiaobai and Chaoda huddled under the black-haired ship girl's rigging, whispering to each other.
The black-haired ship girl's snow-white ship rigging was also continuously spewing out an endless stream of resources into the dark vortex of the Super Yamato...
The black-haired ship girl, still unconscious, furrowed her brows, then relaxed them comfortably, then furrowed them again, then relaxed them again…
In her sleep, she was unaware of the treatment her body and ship equipment were undergoing in the real world, but she was vaguely aware of it all.
The black-haired ship girl vaguely sensed that she...
possible……
seem……
perhaps……
Perhaps... it's not as pure as it used to be.
Chapter 1888 Awakening from a Dream
The black-haired ship girl had a dream.
She dreamt that she was floating on soft, fluffy clouds, large swirling clouds enveloping her body, transforming into a warm, large hand that gently enveloped her limbs and torso. Amidst the swirling mist, the clouds were like a large mouth with a nimble tongue, constantly teasing and sucking at her body. A unique, comfortable, and slightly itchy sensation slowly rose from the soles of her feet, climbing like vines over her knees, across her thighs, and finally up to her waist…
"No, it can't be done!"
The black-haired ship girl suddenly opened her eyes, let out a shameful scream, and sat up abruptly from the water.
wow-
As the black-haired ship girl awoke with a start and quickly sat up from the water, a splashing sound came from behind her. It was the sound of her long hair being suddenly pulled out of the seawater after being soaked in it for too long.
"Huh? I... what happened..." The black-haired ship girl, startled awake from her sleep, gasped for breath, looking around at the sea in confusion. "What... just happened..."
At this moment, in the black-haired ship girl's vision, her former teammates were lying haphazardly on the water all around her. All of these teammates were unconscious and disheveled. What was particularly striking was that these unconscious teammates lying on the water all had a lingering pinkish tinge on their faces... as if they had just been molested by a womanizer.
Peach... pink?
The black-haired ship girl looked at her teammates with a blank expression. Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, she subconsciously lowered her head and looked at the water below.
The smooth, mirror-like surface of the azure water reflected the black-haired ship girl's features clearly.
really.
Although she didn't feel anything unusual after waking up, the black-haired ship girl could clearly see that her cheeks were flushed with a large area of pink in the reflection of the seawater, making her look shy and delicate.
"Eh??" The black-haired ship girl exclaimed in alarm. She instinctively pressed her legs together and placed her hands between her thighs. However, after a few seconds of panic, she frowned slightly, realizing she didn't feel anything unusual. "Hmm... I don't think so..."
The black-haired ship girl sat on the water, looking bewildered, briefly recalling what had happened before she fainted.
She quickly recalled that on their way back to the naval base, she and her companions had encountered a Deep Sea Master, and how they had all fallen under the black mist that Master had casually stirred up...
and many more.
Dean of the Deep Sea Institute?
How did he and his companions manage to survive the Deep Sea Dean's clutches?
The black-haired ship girl's eyes widened as she recalled this, a look of astonishment on her face. She quickly climbed out of the water and ran to her nearby companions, shaking them nervously.
"Wake up, wake up, are you all alright..."
The unconscious companions were gradually awakened by the black-haired ship girl. The first thing they saw after regaining consciousness was the black-haired ship girl who was looking at them anxiously.
"Huh? Captain... Captain, are you alright...?"
"I'm fine! How about you?"
"We... seem to be alright..." The conscious ship girl crew members, like the black-haired ship girl from before, looked around in confusion, then cupped their still-warm cheeks, looking puzzled. "I don't feel any injuries at all... but why does my face feel a little hot..."
"Hey! Speaking of which, where's that dark woman from earlier?!" Some of the more alert ship girl crew members still clearly remembered what had just happened. They hurriedly looked around nervously, trying to find the dark woman who had wiped them out in one move. But the sea was azure and the sky was clear. Not to mention the dark woman, they couldn't even feel a trace of the deep sea.
"I don't know either... This is what I was surrounded by when I woke up..." The black-haired ship girl muttered softly, her face full of confusion. "Isn't that dark-skinned woman the Deep Sea Dean...? How did she get here? Why were we able to wake up unharmed after she wiped us all out...?"
The black-haired ship girl and the other ship girl crew members were speechless. They silently gazed at the surrounding sea. For some reason, they felt that this sea, which usually only felt peaceful and tranquil, now looked unexpectedly vast and boundless, and even a little frightening.
"Captain... I, I'm scared..." The ship girl crew members looked at the surrounding sea, subconsciously shivered, and shrank back as they spoke to the black-haired ship girl.
"...Quick, get up! Don't worry about this place for now. It's good that you're alive. Let's get back to the naval base first." The black-haired ship girl swallowed hard. She got up and helped her teammates up, asking with concern, "Are you still able to move?"
"Hmm, it should be okay...wait, no!" The ship girl crew members who got up checked their condition. After initially confirming that they hadn't suffered any damage, they breathed a sigh of relief and were about to nod when, as they continued checking, their eyes widened in bewilderment. They said to the black-haired ship girl, "Captain...we...our ship equipment...all the resources have disappeared!"
"What?!" The black-haired ship girl exclaimed in surprise. She subconsciously checked her ship equipment, and sure enough, she was shocked to find that the storage compartment for resources in her ship equipment was completely empty. "Ah... I'm empty too... But it's okay, we brought quite a few resources with us on this expedition. We just need to take them out..."
