Elder brother's garrison

Even though Anshan's ship equipment is the smallest and most compact in the room, it doesn't diminish Xiaobai's belief that the power contained within it is not to be underestimated, making it the most noteworthy ship in the room.

As for evidence... Xiaobai isn't a professional ship equipment analyst, and she can't really produce any evidence herself. But she does have experience fighting against powerful deep-sea deans and ship girls. It's like the benefit of being knowledgeable and battle-hardened. In the depths of her mind, she now has a vague intuition about the strength of the ship equipment she sees and feels. She just feels that Anshan's ship equipment is the strongest in this batch.

"Yubari, you did a great job with the modifications." Shiro withdrew his hand and smiled at Yubari.

"Hehe, this Anshan ship equipment is my most confident creation at this stage." Yubari crossed his arms, grinning widely, and said to Xiaobai, "After all, I've already modified a lot of conventional missile ship equipment before this. I've accumulated a wealth of experience, technology, vision, plans, and the necessary infrastructure support, including the corresponding instruments, components, and blueprints. If I still can't create a super excellent ship equipment, then all the knowledge I've gained over the past two years has gone to waste!"

"Hmm? Conventional missile shipboard equipment?" Xiaobai tilted her head curiously as she listened to Yubari's words. "You just said conventional missile shipboard equipment? Missile shipboard equipment... are there any unconventional types?"

"Ahem, that's a secret..." Yubari opened her mouth as she listened to Shiro's words, but quickly closed it, turned to the side and coughed twice in a pretentious manner, "Admiral, you'll know what's going on once they've all been modified!"

"Hmm..." Shiro stared at Yubari for a moment.

Yubari immediately put his hand down and grinned at Shiro.

"Admiral, that's enough about the ship equipment. Let's go check out the ship girls."

"Oh, sure!"

Upon hearing Yubari's words, Shiro immediately smiled with delight and nodded gently.

To be honest... Xiaobai wasn't particularly interested in the ship equipment itself. Compared to those glittering, cold ship equipment, she was definitely more interested in seeing the current situation of the ship girls.

Yubari led Shiro towards a room further inside the renovation workshop.

However, before leaving the room, Xiaobai glanced back at the ship equipment present one last time.

Although Xiaobai's attention was currently drawn to the ship girls, just before leaving with Yubari, for some reason, Yubari's words "conventional missile ship equipment" inexplicably echoed in Xiaobai's mind. Subconsciously, Xiaobai took a few more glances at the ship equipment in the room.

The missile ship equipment displayed in the room remained quiet, each emitting its own halo in the air.

Among these shipboard systems... there do seem to be a few missile launchers that are different from the others.

"Admiral, keep up!" Yubari's voice rang out beside Shiro.

"Ah...coming." Shiro immediately turned back and nodded to Yubari.

Yubari led Shiro away from the hall where the ship equipment was located and continued deeper into the workshop. As they ventured further into the workshop, Shiro clearly felt the surrounding temperature gradually rise and the air become increasingly humid.

Finally, Shiro and Yubari arrived at a room that emitted a warm white light. Yubari stepped forward, pulled back the curtain, and waved to Shiro.

Shiro reached out and grabbed Yubari's wrist, letting her pull her into the room in front of them.

Upon entering the room, the light suddenly became blindingly bright.

Xiao Bai found himself in a bright room covered with white tiles. The room was filled with many operating instruments, and various wires were neatly bundled together on the floor. Around the perimeter of the room were several transparent nutrient tanks that looked like bathtubs. Inside the nutrient tanks, one could vaguely see the silhouettes of fair-skinned, slender people. Outside the tanks, dozens or even hundreds of long data cables were intertwined and connected to the various instruments in the room.

"Admiral, this is where the ship girls are." Yubari said to Shiro with her hands behind her back, "Just like last time, feel free to look around."

"Oh, thank you so much." Shiro smiled at Yubari, then glanced at the nearest nutrient tank and moved closer.

Through the outer shell of the nutrient tank, Xiaobai could see the people inside—the ship girls who were undergoing missile modifications.

Perhaps it was a coincidence, but the first nutrient chamber that Xiaobai approached happened to be the one in Anshan.

Inside the capsule, Anshan was dressed in the same white home lab coat as those in Alaska and Guam. She was floating in a transparent liquid, her white hair wrapped around her body. Her eyes were gently closed, as if she were asleep, and small bubbles occasionally escaped from her mouth with the slow rise and fall of her chest.

When Anshan closed her eyes and fell asleep... she really looked exactly like her sister Changchun.

Xiao Bai stared at Anshan's face for a while.

"Admiral, is it good?" Yubari approached with a grin.

"Anshan hasn't changed at all this time after the renovation," Xiaobai said to Yubari.

“Yes… maybe it’s because she’s satisfied with her current appearance and figure?” Yubari nodded, following Shiro’s lead, “Generally, ship girls who are satisfied with their appearance don’t experience significant changes in their appearance during remodeling.”

“That seems to be true… it didn’t change at all when Missouri was renovated before.” Xiaobai said with deep feeling.

"If I could grow up to look like Missouri, with such a perfect figure, I wouldn't want to stay the same at all," Yubari shrugged.

"Yubari looks great now too," Shiro said with a smile to Yubari.

"Eek! Admiral, how come you can't resist flirting even when you're visiting the remodeled ship girls?!" Yubari looked utterly disgusted by the sweet talk. She immediately crossed her arms and took two steps back, saying warily, "Admiral, I'm not an easy ship girl to win over. Sweet talk alone won't do you think you can conquer me!"

"..." Xiaobai smiled at Yubari.

The situation in Anshan seems to be still in a dormant phase and is unlikely to wake up at the moment.

After saying goodbye to the sleeping Anshan through the nutrient tank, Xiaobai walked to the second nutrient tank nearby.

The second ship girl in the nutrient tank is Garibaldi.

Garibaldi floated inside the nutrient tank, his short red hair flying behind him as if constantly being blown by the wind, and he looked like he was sleeping very soundly.

After the transformation, Garibaldi's appearance and style did not change much, but she seemed to have grown two or three years older, with a much taller figure and more mature features.

If Garibaldi was a high school girl before, she is now probably more like a female college student.

Oh, I have grown up.

Looking at Garibaldi, Xiaobai couldn't help but sigh.

Hmm... so Garibaldi's wish regarding his appearance was to look more mature...

The modifications to ship girls are truly amazing.

Looking at Garibaldi now, who appears somewhat mature, it's hard to imagine that just a few days ago she was a pure and innocent young girl...

Xiao Bai pinched her chin, staring at Garibaldi with great envy, especially at her much more mature figure, before finally looking away.

The next ship girl in the nutrient tank is Chicago.

Chicago floated upside down in the water, her legs crossed and arms folded, occasionally exhaling a few bubbles as if in deep meditation, her blonde hair flying in the opposite direction.

The renovated Chicago is almost identical to Anshan before, so it seems she is also the type who is very satisfied with her appearance.

Rather, this is actually the state of most modified ship girls...

Xiaobai nodded, patted the outer shell of the nutrient pod as encouragement to Chicago, and then moved on to the next nutrient pod.

The next two nutrient tanks contained Guam and Alaska. They appeared to have just entered, as there were still some water stains on the outside of their nutrient tanks, but they were already fast asleep in the water.

In the water, their skin was snow-white, their figures alluring, and their curves full. In particular, their long legs could not be fully straightened in the nutrient tank, but could only be slightly bent to one side, making their thighs more visible and exceptionally pleasing to the eye.

At this moment, Xiaobai still couldn't help but exclaim that the transformations in Guam and Alaska were as outrageous as a complete head transplant...

"Ah, that's wonderful."

Looking at the nutrient tanks in Guam and Alaska, Xiaobai couldn't help but sigh.

"Hmm? What's so great?" Yubari followed behind Shiro and couldn't help but ask curiously after hearing Shiro's exclamation.

Xiaobai shook his head at Yubari, then looked at the last nutrient tank.

Xiaobai paused for a moment when he saw the ship girl in the last nutrient tank.

Inside the nutrient tank... floated a slender, delicate-looking girl. She was serene and calm, her short, wavy chestnut hair swaying gently in the water. Her slender, snow-white shoulders and neck were as graceful as a swan's. Her hands and feet were straight and long, giving the impression of a capable female student full of vitality, or a dancer skilled in dance.

Xiaobai stopped and stared blankly at the hibernation pod.

Eh?

Wait a moment.

Who is this?

Chapter 3860 It's time for infusion again.

Actually, it wasn't entirely impossible for Xiaobai not to guess the identity of the ship girl inside the nutrient tank in front of him...

After all, she had already looked at all the other ship girls, and there was only one person in the remaining hibernation pod. So even by the process of elimination, Xiaobai could roughly guess that the last ship girl was "Kiat," that mischievous little ship girl.

So... she is Kiat.

hiss……

She's actually Kiat?!

Xiao Bai looked at the hibernation pod with a complicated expression.

"Yubari, is this Kiat?"

"Admiral, I understand how you feel. Actually, I felt the same way when I first saw the modified Kiat." Yubari patted Shiro on the shoulder from behind, showing a deeply sympathetic expression.

"Uh……"

Xiaobai looked at the ship girl in the hibernation pod with a conflicted expression.

Kiat... a Gearing-class destroyer. Originally, Kiat was a mischievous, naughty, and troublesome little ship girl who kept her older sister Gearing constantly on her toes. In slightly more fashionable terms, her personality traits would be what people online often call the "little devil" type.

However, more than her personality... what Xiaobai cares about most is that before the remodel, Gearing was clearly a fairly standard destroyer girl.

She's clearly five heads tall!

Little girl!

Elementary school student!

Even her older sister, Kirin, only grew from the size of an elementary school student to that of a middle school student after the transformation...

As the saying goes, sisters are like family. At first, Xiaobai really thought that after the modification, Kiat would probably be about the same height as Kilin, at least in terms of height...

But the result surprised Xiaobai greatly.

Now, Kiate is slim and tall, with mature features and a slender figure. She is clearly about the same age as Changchun and Anshan.

How come Kiat suddenly got so much bigger after the modification?

Gene mutation?

Or is this the power of missile modification?

Xiaobai was so puzzled that she almost pressed her face against the hibernation pod.

"Oh dear, looking at Kiat, it really gives me the feeling that time flies by so fast," Yubari remarked from behind Shiro.

“I don’t think this is a matter of time passing…” Xiaobai withdrew her gaze and looked at Yubari with a complicated expression. “The intensity of this modification is too high. Although Guam and Alaska’s modifications are like plastic surgery, they were at least tall and slender older sisters to begin with. They’ve just changed their appearance. But Kiat has basically grown up for ten years straight…”

"This isn't entirely unheard of in the ship girl world," Yubari said with a smile, arms crossed. "I've seen it a few times before."

"All right……"

"Hmm... But it's true, it's quite rare to see so many ship girls undergoing such a complete transformation in this batch of modifications." Yubari continued to say to Shiro, "Generally speaking, this kind of cosmetic surgery-level modification only occurs once every few hundred cases... It's probably because the modifications they underwent were missile modifications, which inherently involve a change in ship type. With so many variables, it's easier for them to change their appearance based on their mindset."

"I see..." Xiaobai nodded, seemingly understanding. "Are they all asleep now?"

"Yes."

Are there examples like Guam and Alaska where they woke up midway through their journey?

"That will have to wait until their ship equipment modifications are completed and they enter the ship equipment integration period." Yubari said, then explained to Shiro, "Currently, only Guam and Alaska have entered this period, but even for those two, they spend more time sleeping than awake each day."

“Okay…” Xiaobai nodded. She gave Kiat one last look with a complicated and envious gaze before taking a deep breath and turning around. “Okay, now we can go.”

"Hmm? Aren't you going to take a look, Admiral?"

"There's no point in looking anymore... They're all sleeping, and I don't want to disturb them."

"Right."

Yubari shrugged, glanced at the instruments in the room, and then suddenly added a sentence.

"Ah, Admiral, please wait a moment while I go check their test results and vital signs. We'll leave after I've done that."

"You're saying this at this time, won't it cause problems..." Xiaobai suddenly sensed a strong sense of setting a flag in Yubari's words.

"Haha, Admiral, don't worry, I'm here." Yubari gave Shiro a thumbs up. "I just check the data and make records every now and then."

"Oh..." Xiaobai nodded.

Yubari led Shiro to a large number of instruments in the center of the arena—the so-called instruments were a bunch of machines and displays that Shiro couldn't understand, and the only computer screen that Shiro could understand.

Xiaobai didn't pay much attention to the other complex data, but on the only computer screen he could understand, he did see several progress bars labeled with the names of the ship girls.

Anshan: 0%

Kiat: 0%

Chicago: 0%

Guam: 7.98%

Alaska: 8.01%

Garibaldi: 0%
