Elder brother's garrison

However, since she was a ship girl who had seen the world in high-level sea areas, she wouldn't act too exaggeratedly.

"Time is running out, everyone. We need to head back now," Jiang Hu said expressionlessly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the door on the other side was pushed open.

It seemed that this Uncle Jiang Hu didn't have much time to chat with a little girl like her. Xiao Bai nodded to Jiang Hu and walked into the room with a grateful look on her face.

Jiang Hu watched expressionlessly as the group disappeared through the door.

He waved his hand, and the door closed again, quickly dissipating the few traces of liveliness that had just emerged from the city.

"Phew—" Jiang Hu let out a breath.

Great, I've given out the business card.

This trip was definitely worthwhile.

Jiang Hu's tense face relaxed, and an expression of excitement rose up.

This is the world's number one admiral! If some ignorant junior doesn't recognize his greatness, and then this big shot calls me, and I go in and settle things with her, wouldn't I be making a profit?

"Hehe." Jiang Hu became happier the more he thought about it, turned around, and jumped back into the car.

There's something rather strange about it.

Why does the admiral of the world's number one naval base bring a group of destroyers to the first chapter?

Shouldn't we at least bring one or two battleships?

Forget it, I, an ordinary person, can't possibly fathom the thoughts of a big shot.

Jiang Hu stopped thinking again.

-

This wall is not only high, but also thick.

This door was nearly four or five meters high, but more than ten meters thick. It took Xiaobai quite a while to finally reach the city.

I never expected there would be such a shocking facility around the Chapter Sea area.

Little White walked into the city.

The setting sun, turning a deep burgundy, blanketed every corner before my eyes.

At this moment, this man-made city looks like any other ordinary city.

The street in front of me was also a familiar one.

All sorts of ubiquitous vendors and various facilities are scattered throughout the streets, including bars, restaurants, bathhouses, billiard halls, and even internet cafes and game arcades.

The only thing that's particularly noteworthy is that many people in this city are wearing the same style of naval uniform as Xiaobai.

Some walked alone on the street, some were accompanied by one or two ship girls, walking with their heads held high and chests puffed out, and some had three or four standing behind them, their faces beaming with smug smiles.

This is a city full of admirals.

It is also the city with the largest number of ship girls.

Xiao Bai clenched his fist and looked excitedly into the city.

"Wow! They're all admirals!" Xiaobai exclaimed excitedly.

In this city full of admirals, Xiaobai unconsciously felt a sense of belonging, and his heart began to leap with joy.

"Admiral, mind your image," Veneto said with a smile to Xiaobai. "You're the last person in this city who should be excited."

"Ah, sorry." After being reminded by Veneto, Xiaobai realized that as the heir to the world's number one naval base, it was inappropriate for him to act excitedly as if he had never seen a ship girl before.

Xiao Bai covered his mouth and nodded to Veneto.

"Let's go." Veneto understood Xiaobai's feelings.

In fact, Veneto was also surprised by the sight of the entire city filled with white-clad admirals when he first entered the artificial city in Chapter Six.

Well, when you see a lot of people wearing those smart white uniforms, they really do stand out.

Veneto walked in front, followed by Shiro and the four Fubuki sisters, and the group of six traveled through the city.

To explore the sea area, they would have to go to the other side of the city. It was getting late, so Veneto thought it best to prepare food and a place to sleep first.

The admirals on the street were all unconsciously drawn to these six girls.

They not only cast curious and envious glances their way.

"Hey, look..."

"Ah, these are... six ship girls? Who's so lucky?"

"Yeah, my mom is so envious."

"Look at the leader, the one with white hair and red eyes. He's so young, yet he has a cool vibe."

"Are those four sisters? They actually put sister ships together! This person must be incredibly lucky!"

"We are different..."

"I'm more curious about that white-haired, gold-eyed one. What kind of ship girl is she? It seems like the other five ship girls are all surrounding her."

"Destroyer? Submarine? Or perhaps a light carrier?"

"Tell me quickly who their admiral is! My spear is itching for fire!"

"This knife of mine! It's also a knife soaked in poison!"

Along the way, the admirals around them kept glancing at Xiaobai and his six companions with envious eyes.

Especially Shiro, who was subtly surrounded by the ship girls, attracted more than half of the attention.

With an appearance as cute as a ship girl, striking long white hair, and a status and temperament that subtly transcends the surrounding ship girls, this child always gives people the feeling that she is no ordinary person.

These people weren't trying to keep their voices down, so even Xiaobai could hear quite a bit of their conversation.

Xiao Bai felt like he hadn't been treated as an admiral.

Because he was on the train with ordinary people, he took off his admiral's uniform and changed into casual clothes.

It was just a change of clothes, how did I get mistaken for a ship girl...?

Could it be that my own admiral's uniform is the real me?

"Veneto, why are so many people looking at us?" Xiaobai's fear of crowds flared up again.

She is most afraid of being surrounded by a group of people or being stared at by a group of people.

“Hmm…” Veneto pondered for a moment, “Hmm, perhaps it’s because we have too many ship girls.”

"Are five really that many...?"

“For the admirals in the first chapter, it must be an overwhelming number…” Veneto replied.

Sixty percent of the world's admirals are left in the first chapter, and each of them only has one or two ship girls.

The sudden gathering of six ship girls like Xiaobai was quite frightening for these people.

So even so, there are still a lot...

Xiao Bai looked down at the admirals on the surrounding streets, puzzled.

The admirals who were scanned by the white gold eyes instinctively covered their chests.

Little White's golden eyes sparkled, and when those eyes lingered on her body, her heart began to beat faster without her even realizing it.

—This child is extraordinary.

—Beauty is a curse.

All the admirals, looking at the white-haired ship girl surrounded by other ship girls, couldn't help but come to this conclusion.

"In short, don't worry about the people around you for now. You'll be the center of attention for a long time to come," Veneto said, turning to Little White. "Let's find a hotel first."

Back when I was conquering Chapter 7 of Veneto, do you know how many ship girls your brother brought into the city?

Good heavens, what a magnificent sight! The aircraft carrier girls and battleship girls walking together formed a long line, the whole street was packed with your brother's ship girls.

Back then, the people around me were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred, their eyes bloodshot. The look in their eyes that seemed to want to grab a cleaver and chop someone up was far more intense than this.

"Hmm..." Xiaobai nodded.

As the heir to the world's number one naval base, being watched by others is probably a normal occurrence...

Xiao Bai had resigned himself to his fate.

Chapter 203 Adventurer, would you like to team up with me?

In this city, because there are no houses for people to live in, there are many hotels. Xiaobai randomly chose a hotel that looked comfortable and clean and went in to check in.

The shopkeeper was an ordinary person, probably a merchant who was specially allowed to come in to serve the admirals who were conquering the chapter's sea area.

After registering for the room, Xiaobai went inside to change back into his admiral's uniform before following the group out.

Being mistaken for a ship girl is really heartbreaking.

"Admiral, don't worry about conquering the chapters or the sea areas. Just treat it as a leisurely trip here," Veneto said to Xiaobai.

"Okay." Xiaobai nodded in agreement.

Veneto had told Xiaobai more than once not to rush things. The first chapter's sea area was practically an amusement park for Veneto and Fubuki, and they could go whenever they wanted. Lexington had also told Xiaobai not to push things too fast, otherwise the training in the first chapter would be meaningless.

"Let's go get some food first," Xiaobai suggested.

"We'll do as the admiral says," the ship girls below agreed in unison.

The six little girls walked toward the city center under the watchful eyes of the crowd.

There are many restaurants in the city.

However, there is only one Admiral's Union.

The so-called Admiral's Guild is a super-large facility that allows admirals to communicate, provides food and drink, provides maintenance conditions for ship girls, and issues commissions.

Of course, it is the only advanced facility equipped with a repair pool and construction facilities.

Any expense within the Admiral's Guild can be quite substantial.

However, precisely because of this, this place also becomes a gathering place for some admirals who are relatively more affluent than those in the surrounding area.

After all, people with some ability always want to be different from those around them.

On my first day in this city, I always make sure to show my face at the Admiral's Guild.

“In the Admiral Guild, Admirals with five ship girls like this shouldn’t be too rare. By then, there should be far fewer of these annoying stares,” Veneto said to Xiaobai behind him, not caring at all about the volume of his voice.

Hearing what Veneto seemed to be implying, many admirals who had been secretly watching this side quickly and angrily withdrew their gazes.

“However, even if you brought five ship girls like the Admiral, they’re probably only in the single digits,” Veneto chuckled. “They’re still far behind the Admiral in terms of rank.”

After all, in terms of both quality and training level, the five ship girls that Xiaobai brought are overwhelming in this first chapter of the sea area. In fact, with just this lineup, it wouldn't be a big problem to go on a rampage in the third and fourth chapters.

Veneto's voice was not quiet at all, or rather, she made no attempt to lower her voice whatsoever.

The admirals around him who heard Veneto's words couldn't help but feel a surge of anger.

It's really unpleasant to feel like someone doesn't respect you.

If you guys are so great, why did you even bother with Chapter 1? Go to Chapter 2 or 3! What are you trying to prove here? Seriously, what a fool you are.

Having five ship girls is really that awesome? There are plenty of them in guilds, aren't there?

This kind of person will suffer a great loss sooner or later.

Many admirers' gazes shifted from amazement and envy to a strange resentment.

Sensing a slight change in the emotions of the admirals around him, Xiaobai quickly waved his hand and said, "Veneto, let's go eat first, we can talk after we eat."

“Hmm? Oh, okay.” Veneto nodded.

However, Veneto was not wrong. Every word she said was true. There was no pretense involved. Xiaobai was truly amazing.

As for why the surrounding admirals viewed Shiro and his group with such strange emotions, it can probably only be described as their weakness limiting their imagination.

Little White gently pushed Veneto toward the city center.

The closer you get to the city center, the weaker this feeling of being constantly watched becomes.

The people around her started to look at her with the same disdain they had for a giant panda, and then simply glanced at her with the same indifference they had when they saw a pretty girl.

Xiao Bai breathed a sigh of relief.
