Elder brother's garrison

At this moment, Xiaobai had already retrieved her ship equipment, and Shenhai Yamato had also put away her Shenhai Dean form. The two of them stood on the beach with their hands behind their backs like innocent passersby, looking at the sea view and whistling guiltily.

“Admiral…” Akagi looked at Shiro and Yamato, opened her mouth, but finally sighed helplessly, raised her hand to her forehead, and said to Shiro with a bitter smile, “…I’m starting to regret not letting Missouri accompany you and Yamato when you left…”

"The aura of the Deep Sea Dean suddenly appeared again, and then there was the laser cannon... Commander, you're really scaring us to death..." Hood looked like she was about to faint, and she barely managed to steady herself by holding onto Akagi's arm.

"I...I'm sorry...Well, the situation was rather urgent..." Xiaobai had no intention of deceiving the ship girls in front of her. She lowered her head shyly and sincerely apologized to them, "Well...I'm reflecting on my previous behavior..."

"It was me, it was me who persuaded Xiaobai to do that, you can scold me if you want..." Deep Sea Yamato quickly stepped forward and nervously spoke to the ship girls, trying to take the blame.

"Alright, alright, we know you two are so lovey-dovey, stop showing off..." The ship girls looked helplessly at Abyssal Yamato, patting her shoulders one after another, "Although what you just did was quite terrifying..."

Deepsea Yamato was pushed back to Shiro's side by the ship girls.

"Admiral, what exactly happened on the sea just now?" Akagi and the other ship girls looked at Shiro curiously. "After that laser cannon shot, why did the Abyssal Fleet's formation suddenly become completely chaotic?"

"Ah... about this matter..." Xiaobai nodded, looked around, and only after confirming that Admiral Haoding's ship girls were still on the sea cleaning up the battlefield did she breathe a sigh of relief and speak to the ship girls, "Actually, this matter has to start from when Yamato and I left your side..."

Xiaobai briefly told the ship girls about the series of events that happened after she and Abyssal Yamato arrived at the deserted beach.

The ship girls listened blankly to what Xiaobai said.

"Huh? So that laser cannon was aimed at the Dean of the Deep Sea in Chapter Eight?" Hu De looked at Xiao Bai in surprise.

"Yeah... because the situation was urgent..." Xiaobai scratched his head and said to the ship girls apologetically.

The ship girls looked at Xiaobai helplessly.

Although Xiaobai's actions in private this time were extremely risky, and any mistake could have led to utter ruin, in the end, it was precisely Xiaobai's risky actions that saved the ship girls of Haoding Garrison.

"I feel like I'm going to be cleaning up this mess for ages..." Hu De and Akagi exchanged a glance, sighed, and revealed the worries of working-class people.

After hearing what Shiro said, Bismarck didn't react in any particular way. She simply walked over to Yamato Akami, gently patted Yamato's head under his anxious gaze, then patted Shiro's head before leaving expressionlessly without saying anything more.

"Admiral, and senior Yamato, thank you for your hard work." After the senior ship girls left, Missouri came to Shiro and gave her a gentle smile.

"Missouri..." After Missouri stepped forward, Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief, followed by a wave of exhaustion. She took two steps forward and threw herself into Missouri's arms, hugging his waist and burying her head deeply in his broad, magnificent chest. "Thank you..."

Missouri's embrace is Little White's Achilles' heel, Little White's haven.

There are few places in the world better than this.

Chapter Recommendation: "I Raised an Otherworldly Boss into a Homebody!"

The author's group member's new book is still in its seedling stage.

I really like the cover of this book; it's huge.

The following is a brief introduction

On his way back from a comic convention, Lu You encountered a beautiful woman with white hair.

The other person was incredibly immature, claiming she was some kind of twilight lord, the creator of the world.

Lu You also joined in the other person's eccentricities... until the other person started to speak from the heart.

……

The beautiful girl held Lu You's bright red heart in her hand.

His face showed a surprised expression.

So when you said you liked me, you really meant it?

Chapter 1860 Supply and Medical Team

Because of the almost unlimited supply of deep-sea energy, the number of deep-sea ships in the deep-sea territory can be said to be endless. However, even so, there is a limit to the speed at which deep-sea ships can regenerate. After experiencing such a counterattack, in which tens of thousands of deep-sea ships were wiped out by the Mengxin Garrison and Haoding Garrison, even with the supply of deep-sea energy, the sea area near this beach can at least be quiet for one night.

After the battlefield was cleared, the sun began to sag towards the seabed, casting a dim, golden light across the land.

A dozen or so ship girls with minor injuries were left behind at Haoding Naval Base to continue guarding the beach, while the rest of the ship girls left with the ship girls from Xiaobai and Mengxin Naval Base and returned to the valley.

"Admiral, according to our preliminary statistics, we have destroyed more than 20,000 Abyssal Fleet ships in this joint expedition and obtained a total of 13,651 pieces of high-quality Abyssal metal. Among them, three pieces are of even higher quality, Abyssal Frigate-level Abyssal metal, and they are all here with me." Back in the valley, Akagi reported the results to Shiro while taking out a large piece of Abyssal metal that shimmered with a faint orange light from his admiral network and handing it to Shiro.

"Oh, is this what the super-sized deep-sea frigate dropped...?" Shiro took the deep-sea frigate metal from Akagi's hand and curiously examined it for a while.

As expected of a deep-sea creature second only to the Deep-Sea Dean, the deep-sea metal that fell from the frigate's body was much more eye-catching than ordinary deep-sea metal in terms of size, color, and even texture. However, the piece of deep-sea metal in Xiaobai's hand was as big as half of her palm, and it felt heavy in her hand. The entire surface of the deep-sea metal was smooth, and it was interspersed with some obvious orange patterns, which was quite beautiful.

"Did the deep-sea frigate only drop three pieces of deep-sea metal?" Xiaobai asked Akagi curiously.

"Yes."

"Uh... the drop rate is a bit low..."

“I don’t think it’s a drop rate issue.” Akagi gave a helpless smile. “If we were to defeat those deep-sea frigates normally, we should be able to get eight or nine pieces of deep-sea metal… But that laser cannon that someone fired on the beach melted seven deep-sea frigates down to nothing but bone fragments—of course, we can’t loot deep-sea metal or anything like that.”

"Uh." Xiaobai broke out in a cold sweat. "I...I'll be more careful next time...So, Akagi, have you decided how to distribute these fallen deep-sea metals to the ship girls at Haoding Naval Base?"

"Regarding this... the ship girls of Haoding Naval Base contributed significantly to this battle, so I think they deserve a share of the spoils. However, given the current state of their naval base admiral, it might be inconvenient for them to discuss the specifics of the distribution." Akagi nodded slightly and replied to Shiro.

Xiao Bai stopped in her tracks.

"Oh...right." Shiro looked at Akagi, "Speaking of which, how did Admiral Haoding do after Yamato and I left?"

"After you left, Admiral Haoding forced himself to command on the beach for an hour and a half. In the end, his body could not hold on any longer. After issuing the last batch of orders, he vomited blood and fell into a coma. He was eventually taken away by Elizabeth and the others."

"Spitting blood?!" Xiaobai exclaimed in shock. "Is it that serious?!"

"It was my oversight... I failed to notice Admiral Haoding's condition in time. Please punish me, Admiral." Akagi lowered his head apologetically.

"...No, it's nothing...It's not Akagi's fault..." Shiro looked at Akagi with complicated feelings, and finally sighed helplessly, "I guess Admiral Haoding had been suppressing the deterioration of his body and doing his best to hide his injuries until his body could no longer hold on, which is why he vomited blood and fainted."

Xiaobai paused slightly as she spoke, then looked around.

Although they won the battle, it was undoubtedly a Pyrrhic victory for the ship girls of Haoding Garrison. After the initial excitement of the victory, the ship girls of Haoding Garrison who returned with Xiaobai quickly became depressed. They hung their heads and looked dejected. As soon as they returned to the valley, they sat down on the ground by the roadside, quietly pulling at their tattered clothes without speaking or exchanging words.

For the ship girls of Haoding Naval Base, the price they paid for this battle was indeed too high.

Just as Xiaobai was about to say something to comfort the ship girls, suddenly, from the other end of the valley road, several small figures came running towards them, carrying various items.

It was Vesta and several other supply ships.

The goddess of the hearth ran from the other side of the road carrying a medical kit as tall as half her own body. She waved and shouted, and finally stopped in front of Little White.

"Admiral! You're back victorious? Where are the wounded? Where are they all?" Vesta pointed to the other supply ships beside her, who were also carrying medical kits, and eagerly asked Shiro, "Do you need my help? I'm already prepared with the others!"

"Huh? So you guys also have healing skills, Lord Su?" Xiaobai looked in surprise at Sukhbaatar, Odin, and the deep-sea supply ship behind the goddess of the hearth, who were dressed the same as the goddess of the hearth.

“Of course not, the three of us are just assistants to the goddess of the hearth.” Sukhbaatar shrugged, straightened his nurse’s cap, and said slowly to Little White, “You see, those field medics are always accompanied by several nurses who serve them tea and water, that’s what we do.”

"Uh... I see." Xiaobai nodded, then smiled gratefully at the supply ships. "You arrived just in time. The ship girls at Haoding Naval Base need your help right now. Go and help them."

"Understood!" The goddess of the hearth bowed to Little White, then shouted to the supply ships behind her, "My little ones, charge! The battle is about to begin!"

"Yes, Madam!"

The supply ships responded in unison, and then, led by the goddess of the hearth, the four of them dragged large and small medical kits toward a group of wounded ship girls parked by the roadside.

"You! It's you! It's you! What kind of injury did you suffer? When did it happen? What kind of ship equipment are you wearing? Take off your clothes and let me see!"

"..."

The voice of the goddess of the hearth rang out from the roadside.

Xiao Bai pursed her lips and smiled slightly.

"With the Vesta and the others around, there's no need to worry about the ship girls at Haoding Naval Base." Xiaobai murmured, her smile fading slightly, before asking Akagi, "Akagi, where did Miss Elizabeth send the Haoding Admiral?"

“If I’m not mistaken, it should be in Admiral Haoding’s room,” Akagi replied. “As for Admiral Haoding’s room… just ask his ship girls and they should know where it is… Admiral, are you going to see Admiral Haoding now?”

“Yes, I want to go and see how he is.” Xiaobai nodded to Akagi. “In any case, I’ll leave the resettlement issue behind our naval base to Akagi. I won’t go back with you for now; I’ll go check on Admiral Haoding first.”

“Okay,” Akagi replied.

"Does Yamato-neechan want to come along?" Shiro asked, looking at Yamato from the Deep Sea.

"Let's forget about that. I don't have much affection for humans other than Shiro." Yamato Fukami rubbed his shoulders and said to Shiro, "As for me... it's about time I went back to the villa to take care of the kids."

Xiao Bai nodded slightly.

She bid farewell to her ship girl and headed towards the place where Vestal had just gone.

In the short time that had just passed, the Vess had already pushed over a ship girl by the roadside. The other three supply ships held down the ship girl's limbs, while the Vess straddled the ship girl, her two small hands darting around and grabbing at the ship girl's tattered clothes, as if she was about to lift them up.

"Sister, the Kitchen Goddess, no, no, it can't be outside—there are so many people watching!"

"As the saying goes, a doctor's heart is like a parent's, and I've always been dedicated to healing the sick. You're all my daughters, so isn't it normal to examine your daughters? Come on, don't be shy, just release your ship equipment, it won't hurt at all, and it'll be over quickly. That's how I cured your friends before..." The female hearth goddess drooled, her eyes gleaming as she pulled at the ship girl's clothes. "If you're shy, that's okay too. Just let me touch it, and you'll release your ship equipment even if you don't want to..."

"Sister, Sister Vessel—" The ship girl's face instantly turned as red as a monkey's bottom. Unable to resist the strength of the other supply ships, she could only watch helplessly as the Vessel lifted her clothes and touched her skin. With the Vessel's caresses, the ship girl felt a surge of heat coursing through her body and couldn't help but shout, "Ship equipment, ship equipment is about to be summoned…it's about to come out…it's about to—"

"Hello you all."

At the critical moment, Xiaobai's voice rang out beside the supply ships.

"Whoa!" The supply ships were so startled that they quickly stopped, and the ship girl on the ground also felt her heart skip a beat. She quickly got up from the ground, clutching her chest and panting, and looked nervously toward the source of the sound.

All that could be seen was the source of the sound.

Xiao Bai scratched his cheek sheepishly.

"Um... excuse me for interrupting, are you Admiral Haoding's ship girl? Could you tell me where your admiral's house is?"

"Ah... that... the seventh little house by the roadside is it." The ship girl replied blankly to Xiaobai, looking confused.

"Thank you." Xiaobai smiled at the ship girl. "Then I won't disturb you any longer. You can continue."

After Xiaobai finished speaking, she turned and left, leaving the bewildered ship girl and several other supply ships wearing nurse caps standing there dumbfounded.

The ship girl and the goddess of the hearth exchanged a glance.

The atmosphere became somewhat awkward for a moment.

"..."

"..."

"Why don't you just show us your ship equipment yourself?"

"……Um."

Chapter 1861 Knowledge is Power

When Akagi was telling Shiro about Admiral Haoding's condition, she deliberately lowered her voice to avoid the Haoding Naval Base ship girls around her. It's understandable that the ship girls in Haoding Naval Base didn't know about their admiral's current condition, since these ship girls were in a slump after a Pyrrhic victory. At this time, what they needed was a little stimulation like Vestal, not bad news that would kick them when they were down.

Of course, Xiaobai didn't mean to hide it from them; she just didn't want to tell them this bad news at this inopportune time.

Following the ship girl's directions, Xiaobai walked towards Admiral Haoding's house.

Most of the ship girls in the valley remained where Shiro had been, waiting for Vesta to heal them. The ship girls from the newbie naval base were also taken back to the villa on the other side by Akagi. So the valley was unusually quiet at this time, and there was no one in sight along the way.

As Xiaobai walked towards Admiral Haoding's house, just as he was about to reach his destination and Admiral Haoding's room was in the distance, Xiaobai vaguely heard a soft sobbing sound.

The crying was very soft, and it was clear that the person making the sound was trying to suppress it so that no one would hear it. However, the valley was too quiet at the moment, and Xiaobai had very good hearing, so he was still able to hear the source of the sound quite clearly.

“…That voice is…” Xiaobai stopped in her tracks and looked toward Admiral Haoding’s house. At first, she didn’t see anyone in front of Admiral Haoding’s house. Then, Xiaobai followed the sound and soon found Elizabeth sitting on the ground with her legs hugged by a hidden bush next to Admiral Haoding’s room.

"Miss Elizabeth?!" Xiaobai exclaimed in surprise.

Elizabeth was no longer as elegant and composed as when Xiaobai had first met her. Now, she was filled with a sense of helplessness and vulnerability. She sat by the grass, hugging her knees and trying to hide herself as much as possible. Her face was buried between her legs, her long hair was draped over her shoulders, and soft sobs could be heard intermittently.

Upon hearing Little White's call, Elizabeth trembled in the grass, and her sobbing stopped.

Elizabeth looked up, her eyes blurry with tears, and gazed at Little White.

“Admiral Lu…Admiral Lu Lin…” Elizabeth looked at Xiaobai with red eyes, her gaze filled with the desperate longing of someone who had fallen into the water and found a piece of driftwood.

“Miss Elizabeth, what are you doing here… Where is Admiral Haoding? How is he?” Xiaobai walked up to Elizabeth and reached out her hand. “Quick, get up… the ground is dirty…”

"Lu Lin...Admiral Lu Lin!" As Xiao Bai approached, Elizabeth burst into tears. She didn't take Xiao Bai's hand, but instead scrambled to her feet, grabbed his waist, and pleaded in a choked voice, "Admiral Lu Lin, please, please save my admiral..."

"Eh?? Miss Elizabeth, you..." Xiaobai stared blankly at Elizabeth, who was crying without regard for her image, and quickly reached out to help her up.

But Elizabeth clung even tighter to Little White's waist and refused to get up.

"Admiral, Admiral... he still hasn't woken up. I don't know what to do. Admiral Lu Lin, I'm sorry, please, please..." Elizabeth pleaded incoherently with Xiaobai.

"……"noob.

Seeing Elizabeth crying with tears streaming down her face, Xiaobai's heart jumped.

Based on Xiaobai's previous interactions with Elizabeth, this ship girl, just like her ship name suggests, is a bit silly at times, but her every move exudes an elegance that is ingrained in her bones. She belongs to the kind of noble ship girl with a naturally high sense of self-respect... The fact that Xiaobai could force such a ship girl to beg him in such a pathetic way shows that Admiral Haoding's current situation must be very pessimistic...

Xiao Bai pursed her lips.

“Miss Elizabeth, I understand. Leave it to me.” Xiaobai didn’t let Elizabeth continue to be in such a sorry state. She squatted down and gently placed her hands on Elizabeth’s shoulders. She didn’t ask any questions for a moment, but gave Elizabeth a firm look. “Admiral Haoding is a respectable admiral. Whatever problems he has, I will take care of everything. Please rest assured and leave it to me!”

A firm commitment is always the best way to soothe people's hearts.

After Xiaobai finished speaking, Elizabeth stared at Xiaobai's face, feeling the warmth and strength transmitted from Xiaobai's hands. Her panicked state finally began to calm down a little. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiaobai opened his mouth to Elizabeth.
