Elder brother's garrison

Overwhelmed by the imposing aura, Glory was speechless for a moment. She trembled for a while before biting her tongue hard and opening her mouth with the help of the pain.

"Please... help us... if possible, we hope you can come together... to rescue them..."

This was the first time that Glorious had ever felt that speaking was such a difficult thing to do.

"Oh?"

The mysterious woman seemed quite satisfied with Glorious's speech. She slowly leaned down, her pair of piercing purple eyes, filled with a ferocious, beast-like aura, staring intently at the trembling Glorious.

"You want them all?" the woman asked with a hint of domineering teasing.

"..." Glory thought she had answered the question wrong, and she was too scared to speak.

"..." The woman raised an eyebrow. "You want them all?"

"...No...is it not allowed?"

"Sure, either way is fine." The woman extended her hand with an air of authority, a cold smile playing on her lips.

Under the glorious gaze.

The woman slowly opened her mouth.

"————But you have to pay."

Chapter 1140 Yamato Lifeguard Opens the Door to a New World

Under the gaze of the two enormous mechanical whales, one white and one purple, their bodies as massive as mountains, his glorious thoughts involuntarily stalled when the woman before him uttered the words "pay me."

Glory stood frozen in place, staring at the domineering woman in front of him, searching for the emotions in her expression between her brows with confusion and bewilderment.

Glory is not a simple-minded person.

Glory never expected to receive kindness from others for free. Regarding his act of asking for help, Glory felt that it was perfectly normal for him to pay some financial price to those who were willing to help him.

Glory's gaze was fixed on the strange woman before him, who was clearly neither a typical ship girl nor a typical deep-sea amphibious ship.

The powerful force this woman displayed in that brief moment was enough to convince Glory that she possessed the ability to save his temporary teammates.

But what is this ship girl referring to when she says "money"?

Glory fell into deep thought, his brain working at lightning speed in this critical moment.

This woman clearly does not belong to human society, and the money she speaks of is very likely not the currency circulating in human society.

In various comics, these incredibly powerful and mysterious figures are often portrayed as aloof and eccentric individuals with strange temperaments. If you were to present them with human currency, this powerful figure, seeing a stack of blank paper in your hand, might even mistake it for mockery and send you home with a single shot...

The sea, marine life... if that's similar to the concept of money, could it be food? Or deep-sea metals? Or, assuming her fluent human language was taught by another human, from an educator's perspective, the concept of money might be similar to "goods that can be exchanged for good things." Should I offer something that's easy to barter with, like expensive jewelry or clothing...?

As a flagship ship girl who is still growing, Koei Tecmo habitually thinks carefully and with all her might.

"Huh? Why are you suddenly not responding? What? Do you want to get something for nothing?" Seeing Guang Rong's hesitant look, the mysterious woman's brows quickly furrowed with displeasure. "Let me tell you, we're not in this line of work doing charity. You want us to save people? No money, no deal."

"Excuse me, sir, what kind of money are you referring to...?"

"Wow, are you ship girls really that country bumpkin? You don't even know what money is?!" The woman gave a look of utter disdain, then adopted a condescending tone, gesturing as she explained, "It's a rectangular piece of paper about this size, with a person's face and a denomination on it, right? You can use it to buy food and clothes, or to spend real money in games to become a top player. Also, the snack stalls in those human cities don't accept credit cards; they only accept cash, right?"

"……"glory.

I initially thought this mysterious woman wasn't a creature of human society.

Now it seems.

This woman is surprisingly down-to-earth.

They have a whole set of jargon.

"...Then may I ask what your price is?" Glorious asked with some concern.

"Here you go." The mysterious woman opened her hand and waved it in front of Glory. "Since you ordered the all-inclusive package, if we charge per person, saving one person will cost five hundred yuan. No bargaining, thank you."

"..." Glory was stunned again.

The actual price this woman offered was far greater than the millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions that Guangrong had just estimated in his mind...

Would it be even more embarrassing?

"Deal or not? Let me tell you first, while we were chatting, those friends of yours lying over there were almost dragged to the bottom of the sea by the Deep Sea Deans." The mysterious woman gestured for Glorious to turn around.

Glory instinctively turned around.

The other team of temporary teammates, who had just been wiped out in one wave, were being dragged deeper into the sea by the two teams of white deep-sea deities.

Oh no!

The fate of ship girls who lost the ability to resist and were taken away by the Abyssal Deans is not worth elaborating on, but it was definitely a tragic one with a slim chance of survival.

"Deal! Deal! Please, sir, save my teammate!" Glory didn't have time to worry about whether this mysterious woman was playing any word games with him. He nodded vigorously and shouted.

The mysterious woman revealed an expression of utter satisfaction.

"it is good!"

The mysterious woman stretched her limbs with great interest, then turned and jumped, landing right on top of the purple whale behind her right under the noses of the ship girls.

Just like riding a horse, the mysterious woman sat on the head of the purple whale and pointed to the two teams of deep-sea deans who were still carrying bricks in the distance.

"Fish, let's go!"

The purple whale opened its enormous mouth and let out a roar that was incredibly loud.

The giant tail swished.

Huge waves surged into the sky.

Under the watchful eyes of the ship girls led by Glorious, the purple whale charged straight toward the two distant Abyssal Commanders with an unstoppable momentum.

Fiery red cannon fire and indigo lightning crackled and exploded on the sea surface, the cool skill effects reflected on the faces of the ship girls watching the battle, making them all turn purple.

After all, the enemy has a large number of troops.

The arrival of the mysterious woman caused the initial battle to become intense and protracted.

Just as the ship girls were watching the battle unfold as if they were watching an epic movie.

Only then did the white mechanical whale, like a slow-witted old man, leisurely follow the movement of the deep-sea Yamato.

As it passed by the ship girls, the white whale even gave them a rather human-like glance.

That look in his eyes was like that of a profound and unassuming master.

The white whale sailed into the battleground under the watchful eyes of the ship girls.

The ship girls' faces, which were tinged with a purplish hue by the dazzling light of the lightning, were then illuminated by an even more dazzling white light, turning them snow-white in the next second.

"Zizzi"

"Boom boom boom"

Next.

Amidst the sounds of ship equipment exploding one by one by the Deep Sea Deans, the ship girls stared in disbelief at the smooth sea surface that was instantly sliced ​​in two by a giant white ice pillar.

Just a few seconds later.

Two whales, one purple and one white, carrying the mysterious woman and her glorious companions, sped back.

Several loud bangs.

The mysterious woman threw her teammates, whose bodies were covered in frost and who were shivering even while unconscious, their faces pale from the cold, in front of Glorious.

Under the watchful eyes of the ship girls, the mysterious woman jumped down from the top of the whale's head.

"Here you go, your teammates. Remember to sign for it. Ahem, there are six in total." The mysterious woman pulled out a small notebook and skillfully took notes. "Five, six, thirty; three thousand yuan is just right for you. Welcome back next time!"

After the mysterious woman finished taking notes, she put the notebook back into her ship's equipment space, then walked up to Glorious and extended her hand.

Glory dared not delay, and quickly took out his wallet, took out three thousand yuan in cash, and respectfully placed it in the woman's hand.

The woman eagerly accepted the glorious reward, and then, in front of Guangrong, she became quite pleased with herself.

"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven... twelve, thirteen... twenty-six, twenty-seven... thirty!" The woman's banknotes twirled between her slender fingers as she quickly counted them. She then flashed a very professional smile at Guangrong, "Thank you for your patronage, welcome back next time!"

"..." Glory watched as the woman transformed from arrogant to incredibly compliant and adorable with a smile the moment she accepted the money, and couldn't help but feel a little complicated and bitter.

Such a powerful woman.

Such a powerful warrior could easily defeat me with a flick of his wrist.

For just three thousand dollars, she could be persuaded to help him rescue his comrades trapped by enemy forces...

Then she willingly gave a professional smile to her group of ship girls who were far inferior to her.

Glory couldn't help but let out a deep sigh.

I wasn't sure if I felt frustrated or embarrassed.

During wartime...

Human life is indeed so cheap...

"Hey, you can also check your companions' injuries, see if they've kicked the bucket or anything. Anyway, even if they have, I'm not going to give you a refund." As if to prove that what she said was true, the mysterious woman put the banknotes into her ship equipment space in front of Glorious and whistled with her hands behind her back.

"...No need to check, they all have heavy damage protection on them, and they won't be in danger until the protection disappears," Glorious replied weakly.

"Tsk, what a convenient ability." The mysterious woman seemed to have some prejudice against the ship girl's heavily damaged protection, but after clicking her tongue a couple of times, she didn't say anything more. She just tossed her long hair behind her back, turned around, and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll be going."

Finished.

The two enormous mechanical whales that followed the mysterious woman slowly sank to the bottom of the sea.

The mysterious woman bent over, as if she was about to jump into the water.

"Ah! Please wait!" Glorious hurriedly called out to the mysterious woman.

"What are you doing?" The mysterious woman paused, then looked up with a suspicious expression.

“…Thank you.” Glory bowed to the mysterious woman.

"..." The mysterious woman scratched her cheek. "Oh."

"Um, and..." Glorious asked somewhat awkwardly, "...May I ask if you're helping us... because of work?"

"..." The mysterious woman thought for a moment, then glanced at the sky, "Part-time job."

"So, sir, you've been living on the sea all this time?"

"...Why are you asking so many questions?" The mysterious woman forced a slightly unhappy expression.

"Ah, no, you misunderstand. I didn't mean to pry into your background, it's just..." Glorious smiled awkwardly, "Well, what I meant was... if we encounter trouble again, could we possibly ask for your help once more..."

"Ugh, this is too much trouble, I don't want to." The mysterious woman immediately showed a look of annoyance, but as soon as she finished speaking, she raised an eyebrow and paused for a moment, "Hmm, wait a minute?"

The mysterious woman nodded thoughtfully.

"Yeah, in less than a minute, you can easily earn three thousand dollars with a single move. If you did it as a job, you could find someone to spread the word, saying the sea is so vast, go check out the dangerous waters... wouldn't there be a lot of these weak ship girls? Then you could make a decent amount of money every day..."

"Three, six, nine... Woohoo!"

"Wow, it's even more than my regular job!"

"Oh no, this is a business opportunity!"

The mysterious woman's eyes widened.

She turned her head with a delighted expression and glared at Glory and the others.

In the instant that the purple eyes turned into a "¥" shape.

Ding.

That's the sound of a banknote detector.

Chapter 1141 Living off one's savings is also a kind of happiness

During the event, although the beach in Chapter 6 was crowded with people, Xiaobai and his ship girls moved around in the gaps between the crowds, making them relatively inconspicuous. However, Chapter 6 was ultimately incomparable to Chapters 1 and 2. The admirals here had much better eyesight and knowledge than those novice admirals in Chapter 1.

The news that Shiro had appeared on the beach in Chapter 6 with the ship girls could not be kept secret any longer. After Shiro left that afternoon, the news slowly spread throughout the entire beach.

Upon hearing the news, the admirals on the beach all turned pale and felt a chill run down their spines.

Deeply fearful of the white-haired ship-salvaging maniac's reputation, the admirals hurriedly recalled their ship girls who were still fighting on the sea.

After the ship girls returned to the beach from the sea with doubts, the group of anxious admirals hurriedly stepped forward, counting the number of ship girls while asking them about their well-being with deep affection, as if they were afraid of neglecting the ship girls.

That night.

The news that the newbie naval base had finally appeared at the event venue spread like wildfire among the admirals that evening.
