Elder brother's garrison

"Sister Musashi?" Shiro asked.

"Hmm?" Musashi replied while licking his fingers.

"How did you learn human language?" Xiaobai asked.

This is a very serious issue. It would be terrifying if a deep-sea amphibious vessel learned human language and then ventured into human homes, especially since it was a deep-sea general amphibious vessel. If a deep-sea amphibious vessel with such destructive power were to go berserk in a densely populated city, it would be nothing short of a giant walking meat grinder.

Xiaobai is quite curious about why the Deep Sea General Ship was able to stay obediently for so long after going ashore without causing any trouble.

"Language?" Deep Sea Musashi paused in her finger-licking motion, then narrowed her eyes and began to think carefully. "I don't know."

"Not sure?"

“I suddenly learned it after waking up in the ocean,” Deep Sea Musashi murmured.

This wasn't the first time Xiaobai had heard this claim; Yamato had said the same thing a few days ago when he and Lexington were discussing the plan.

He was peacefully ruling his own territory, but then, for some unknown reason, he suddenly found himself lying in his deep-sea home, surrounded by a bunch of escort ships, and inexplicably developed a strong urge to invade human homes.

Does the Dean of the Deep Sea Academy undergo such changes every quarter?

After thinking for a while, Xiaobai dismissed the idea. Deep Sea Yamato had been staying obediently at the naval base without any problems.

"How do you conceal your deep-sea aura, Musashi-neechan?" Shiro asked.

Deep Sea Musashi pointed to his forehead.

A red light also appeared on Deep Sea Musashi's forehead. As this red light shone, the deep-sea resentment around her seemed to come alive and began to fluctuate before quickly receding into her body.

In an instant, no more deep-sea aura could be detected on Deep Sea Musashi.

"What kind of ability is this?" Xiaobai asked in surprise.

"I don't know, I'll know when I wake up," Deep Sea Musashi said.

Deep Sea Musashi knew nothing when asked.

Xiaobai realized that he probably wouldn't be able to get any more information from Deep Sea Musashi. He could only sigh helplessly.

Meanwhile, Luo Lian was also in her own group's room, deep in thought, staring at the papers in front of her.

She encountered the biggest problem she had faced since entering the temporary sea city.

Luo Lian closed her eyes, hugged her chest, and swayed back and forth.

"Mmm...mmm...mmm...mmm..." Luo Lian's voice slowly emerged from her throat.

Sitting on the bed, Warspite looked at Luo Lian and felt the heavy atmosphere coming from her, so he didn't dare to make a sound.

"Hmm...hmm...hmm..." Luo Lian was still pondering.

"Um...Admiral?" Warspite thought for a long time before finally calling out.

"War-weary, is something the matter?"

"Is it really that hard to name a team?" Warspite asked.

“…Ah, naming a child isn’t difficult in itself.” Luo Lian shook her head, “It’s just…”

"only?"

"I really want to name the team something like 'Little White is Number One Under Heaven,' but wouldn't that just be telling Little White that I'm here?" Luo Lian hesitated, running her fingers through her hair.

"...Oh? Then don't take it."

“That won’t do.” Luo Lian shook her head again, rejecting the suggestion from the war-weary woman.

War-weary pursed his lips and lay back down on the bed, feeling utterly bored.

She's getting a little too lazy to bother with her own position as admiral anymore.

I'm a 1000% brainless admiral, a bottomless pit.

Luo Lian sat on the ground and stared at the draft paper in front of her for a long time, wavering between the dozens of names to be chosen.

"Forget it, there's still some time before the deep-sea activity period starts, I'll think about it tomorrow." After racking her brains, Luo Lian gave up on her choice. She folded the draft paper in front of her, put it in the inner pocket of her clothes, picked up the baseball cap next to her, and stood up.

"Going out again?" Warspite asked.

"Ah."

"Admiral, what have you been doing when you go out lately?"

"To replenish energy." Luo Lian answered as she opened the door and walked out, leaving Warspite in the room looking completely bewildered.

Luo Lian changed into a baseball cap, paired with her inconspicuous clothes, and with a few small movements, she quickly blended into the crowd.

Luo Lian walked to the edge of the courtyard of the newbie naval base, leaned against the wall in the shadows, and looked towards the location of the newbie naval base.

Luo Lian needs to replenish Xiao Bai's energy.

As long as she can see Xiaobai every day, Luo Lian even feels like she could become a perpetual motion machine.

However, perhaps because she had been watching increasingly daring things lately, Xiao Bai seemed to have subtly become aware of her presence. Luo Lian even reflected on this.

It's definitely impossible for me to meet Xiaobai now. I'm too weak to help her with the workload; I'll only be a burden to her.

It's good enough to be able to watch from the dark for a while like this.

Luo Lian leaned against the wall, seemingly frozen in place, as she looked towards the entrance of the novice garrison's courtyard.

This lasted for an hour.

Xiaobai was nowhere to be seen.

"Did Xiaobai go out today?" Luo Lian murmured, letting go of the wall she was leaning against.

That's true. Xiaobai doesn't stay in the naval base every day. At this time, he might be bored and go out for a stroll.

It wouldn't be good to accidentally bump into them while shopping, so Luo Lian quickly pulled her baseball cap down and prepared to return to the hotel.

"There was a female admiral who ran off to the coast with a ship girl before, she was really risking her life."

"Where is the female admiral from?"

"They were moving too fast to see clearly, but there were two people, one big and one small, both with white hair."

What were they doing there?

"I do not know."

At this moment, the conversation nearby made Luo Lian stop in her tracks.

Luo Lian quickly shifted her gaze to the people talking, then took off her baseball cap and walked towards the group.

"Hello." Luo Lian walked over to the people she was talking to.

The two admirals were talking when a girl dressed in casual clothes walked in. They both asked curiously, "Hello, little sister, who are you...?"

“I’m also an admiral.” Luo Lian took out her admiral’s certificate.

"Uh……"

"What were you talking about just now? Could you tell me the details? Thank you!" Luo Lian's face showed a pure and lovely smile, like a girl next door.

When the two admirals saw Luo Lian's smile, their faces flushed involuntarily, and they began to tell Luo Lian what they had heard.

That's exactly what happened between Shiro and Deep Sea Musashi.

After asking about the characteristics and location in detail, and also asking who the ship girl was most likely to be, Luo Lian ignored the invitations from the two admirals to have a cup of coffee with her, declined them directly, and quickly ran towards the courtyard of the newbie naval base.

Luo Lian jumped directly into the courtyard of the newbie garrison and looked around.

"Huh?" Changchun noticed Luo Lian's presence immediately. She walked towards Luo Lian with wide eyes. "Isn't this the Admiral's friend?"

Back in Yuxiu, Changchun and Saratoga met this little white guy's friend. Changchun remembered that Luo Lian should still be at the Shanghai Naval University.

"There's no time for this." However, Luo Lian didn't give Changchun any time to reminisce. She slapped Changchun on the shoulder and said, "Quickly call out the person in charge of your garrison!"

Chapter 420 Musashi and Yamato

"Huh?" Changchun didn't expect Luo Lian to be in such a hurry, not giving him a chance to speak. "Uh... our admiral has gone out..."

"I know that your naval base must have more than just the admiral in charge, right?"

"Uh... um, Lexington, she..."

"Speak it out quickly." Luo Lian shook Changchun's body.

The conversation between Luo Lian and Chang Chun caused the lazy ship girls who were lounging in rocking chairs to sit up. Lexington, hearing the commotion outside, also pushed open the door to the temporary admiral's office and came out.

"Let me see who it is." Lexington walked up to Changchun with a smile and looked Luo Lian up and down. "Little sister, I am Lexington. Is there something you need?"

Luo Lian released Chang Chun, then said to Lexington, "Xiao Bai has been captured."

Lexington's smile froze.

With several loud bangs, the closed doors in the courtyard were roughly pushed open by the ship girls, who then leaned against the doors and stared coldly at Luo Lian.

A hint of coldness flashed in Lexington's eyes. She first released her ship equipment and then launched a carrier-based aircraft into the sky.

In the temporary sea area filled with ship girls, Lexington can no longer disappear 24 hours a day to leave her carrier-based aircraft in the air for patrols like she did at the naval base, but she can still take off occasionally.

After a very short while, having indeed not found Xiaobai in the temporary city, Lexington nodded and asked Luo Lian, "What's your name?"

"Luo Lian".

“Luo Lian, Xiao Bai told me that he’s a very reliable kid.” Lexington patted Luo Lian on the shoulder. “Can you tell me who did it first?”

“It was made by the Deep Sea Ark. It should have brought Xiaobai to a safe area by now.” Luo Lian said as she took out a draft paper that she had put in her clothes earlier, wrote a row of data on the back of the draft paper, and handed it to Lexington. “It’s probably around this location.”

Lexington didn't doubt the truthfulness of Luo Lian's words, nor did she ask how Luo Lian knew these things. She took the note Luo Lian gave her, read it for a while, and then nodded to Luo Lian: "Thank you very much."

"There shouldn't be any danger for now, but places with dense deep-sea energy aren't good for human health, so please set off quickly," Luo Lian said.

Lexington put away the note that Luo Lian had handed him.

As Lexington and Lorelei finished their conversation, the ship girls who had been watching gathered around to ask them questions.

Lexington.

"Lexington, the Admiral has been arrested?"

"Where is the Admiral now?"

"Lexington..."

……

As the lord of the naval base, Xiaobai's safety is extremely important. Therefore, after hearing that Xiaobai had been captured, all the ship girls present crowded towards Lexington.

"Don't worry." Lexington smiled at the ship girls who were crowding around her. "The admiral just went a little too far. There's nothing wrong with her. I'll have a few of my sisters come with me to pick her up later. Don't worry."

"I swear on my life, Xiaobai will be fine," Lexington said to the ship girls who had gathered around.

The ship girls were then calmed down.

“Little sister Luo Lian, we’ll discuss the payment later. I’m about to take a few sisters out, so could you please wait here a little longer?” Lexington said to Luo Lian.

"..." Luo Lian thought for a while and nodded silently.

"Also, regarding my admiral's... voyage, can you keep it a secret from others?" Lexington didn't mention being captured, but instead asked Luo Lian in a different phrasing.

Luo Lian nodded again.

Lexington patted Luo Lian on the shoulder, then turned to look at the courtyard.

Lexington's gaze lingered on Akagi, Saratoga, Shoukaku, Zuikaku, and Taihou for a moment.

The ship girls, understanding the unspoken message, came out as well.

"Is Yamato there?" Lexington asked softly.

The ship girls surrounding Lexington parted to make way, and Abyssal Yamato stood there.

“Yamato, you’ll come with us later,” Lexington said.

"Huh? Me too? I have no fighting power and can only be a burden..." Deep Sea Yamato had of course heard what Lexington and Luo Lian were talking about earlier, and she felt that she couldn't be of any help in her current state.

However, halfway through her sentence, Yamato Akagi involuntarily stopped.

Lexington's expression was not as serious as others had expected, nor did she appear particularly angry or furious, but her eyes were unusually calm and firm.

She seems like the kind of person you can't refuse no matter what she says.

In the end, Yamato could only mumble an "oh," which was taken as a tacit agreement.
