I was shocked to be treated this way.
Xiao Bai expressed that she actually felt a little wronged.
She didn't think she was such a scary person.
There must be a deep misunderstanding and misinterpretation behind the fear shown to him by a high-ranking admiral.
But those who were avoiding him wouldn't listen to his explanations. Even if Xiaobai suddenly felt like going up to someone to say hello, they wouldn't give him a chance to talk to them.
—It seems like it's been a long time since I was frankly watched by other admirals like this, and I quite miss it.
Happy heart.

In the Admiral's Guild in Chapter 2058.
In a spacious hall filled with all kinds of machinery, next to several mounds of parts, a black and white figure was crawling on a workbench, holding an orange welding torch, carefully welding the mechanical parts on the workbench.
crackle.
crackle.
The sparks on the welding nozzle flickered.
The entire hall was eerily quiet. Apart from the crackling of welding, not even a low breathing could be heard. The floor-to-ceiling windows around the hall were drawn with heavy beige curtains, and the sunlight filtering through the curtains appeared particularly dim. The only light source was the shadowless lamp that was constantly lit on the work desk.
"Ah—woo." Just then, a long, soft yawn came from the wall not far from the work desk.
The yawn wasn't loud, but the environment in the hall was so quiet that the sound of the yawn clearly reached the ears of the person at the work desk.
The crackling sound of welding stopped.
The figure hunched over the worktable silently put down the welding nozzle, removed the goggles, looked up and let out a sigh of relief, then looked towards the wall.
Along the wall of the hall.
A brown-haired ship girl in a red dress was standing close to the wall, covering her mouth with one hand, her eyes filled with tears squeezed out from yawning, and her face showing a sleepy and absent-minded expression.
"Admiral? You're finally done with your work?"
Seeing the figure on the workbench finally put down the welding nozzle, the brown-haired ship girl sprang to her senses. The tired expression on her face vanished, and she asked the figure on the workbench with a relieved look.
"Hmm..." The figure on the workbench nodded slightly. She observed the brown-haired ship girl's expression, then asked, "Warspite, how long have I been sitting here?"
“It’s been three days and three nights.” The brown-haired ship girl named Warspite yawned again as she spoke, then said to the figure on the workbench, “Admiral, you haven’t slept for three days and three nights…”
"Has it taken that long?" The figure on the workbench seemed somewhat surprised.
"Of course!" Warspite pouted at the workbench and began to complain, "If you hadn't told me not to bother you before, I would have moved you off the workbench long ago! As a result, not only did you not sleep for three days and three nights, but I also stayed here to guard you for three days!"
“…I didn’t realize so much time had passed.” The figure at the workbench listened to Warspite’s complaints and belatedly nodded. Then she gently pushed back her chair and stood up, but before she could even get off the chair and stand firmly, her body suddenly swayed twice, lost her balance, staggered a couple of steps, and fell to the side.
"Hey! Admiral, watch out!" Warspite rushed forward and caught her just as she fell. "Admiral, are you alright?"
"..." The swaying figure, dragging the back of the chair, steadied itself with Warspite's support, then rubbed its forehead and nodded to Warspite, "Hmm, it's alright, it's not a big problem."
"Ugh... Admiral, you haven't slept, eaten, or drunk anything for three days and three nights... I can understand the others, but the most important thing is that you haven't even gone to the toilet once! How did you manage to hold it in?" Warspite grumbled as she sat up, beginning her nagging mode, "Don't you feel uncomfortable holding it in...?"
After helping himself back to his chair, Warspite walked to the French windows and pulled the curtains open.
Splash—the wine
The sunlight, like surging seawater, poured into the hall through the transparent glass windows, illuminating the dim corners. The brilliant sunlight cast its glow on the chairs, illuminating the figures seated within.
Glasses.
Girl.
A delicate and exquisite body.
A meticulous gaze.
It was Luo Lian.
"Admiral, how does it feel to see the sunlight again after three days?" Warspite asked Luo Lian, hands on hips, standing by the French windows.
"Mmm, much better." Luo Lian replied, leaning on the back of the chair with one hand and looking in the direction of Warspite.
"Sigh... So, Admiral, I understand your research aspirations, but if you're going to do research, fine, but sitting in your chair for days on end without moving, ignoring meals and rest, is just too much. What kind of research method is that?" Warspite said as she walked back to Luo Lian's side, adding, "Tell me, it's only because I've been keeping an eye on you that I'm doing this. What if I'm not watching you one day and you suddenly collapse from exhaustion at your workbench?"
"Sorry... I just couldn't bear to stop because inspiration kept flowing."
"Can you even speak like a human being?" Warspite seemed used to Luo Lian's words. She sighed, took out a bottle of milk and a chocolate bar from her ship equipment space, and handed them to Luo Lian. "Here, replenish your energy."
"Hmm." Luo Lian took the milk and chocolate bar that Yan Zhan handed her, gulped down the milk, and finished the chocolate bar in a few bites. "Has anything happened in the guild these past few days?"
"No."
"Where is the acting president?"
"downstairs."
"..."
"Admiral, do you want to go down and take a look?"
"Ah."
"I think you'd better go and catch up on your sleep..."
"It's alright, I'll go down and take a look." Luo Lian smiled slightly at Warspite, and stood up while holding onto the chair. "The research has just stopped, so I'll take a short walk before going to rest."
"Oh..." Warspite looked at Luo Lian's smile, and the few complaints that were about to come out of her mouth could not be said. She sighed, lowered her head and mumbled as she took Luo Lian's arm: "Okay then, I'll help you down to take a look."
Luo Lian and Yan Zhan walked towards the stairwell.
As they walked, Warspite turned his head curiously and asked Luo Lian.
"Speaking of which, Admiral, your research has yielded some preliminary results?"
"Ah."
"What did you do?"
"It's a pretty interesting toy."
"Toy?"
Warspite looked at Luo Lian curiously. By this time, the two had already walked up the stairs to the front door. Luo Lian did not explain anything to Warspite. She reached out and pushed open the door. With a creak, the light from the doorway shone on their faces. Then, waves of lively and noisy voices surged around them.
"Team up! Team up!"
"Second node requires two heavy cruiser teammates!"
"I just got back from the fourth node. For just ten points, you can bring home today's sea area information for the fourth node! You won't regret it!"
"Newly shipped main guns for light cruisers, price negotiable!"
"..."
Luo Lian and Warspite walked down the stairs to the third floor of the Admiral's Guild. In the lobby, there were notice boards for posting missions. A large number of new admirals, accompanied by their ship girls, held up various signs recruiting teammates and kept calling out to each other in the lobby.
The scene was quite lively.
"It's as lively as ever today..." Warspite glanced at the new admirals in the third-floor hall, muttered to herself, and then helped Luo Lian walk up to the second floor.
Some of the rookie admirals in the third-floor lobby, who were holding up signs to recruit teammates, noticed Luo Lian and Yan Zhan, who had just come down from the fourth floor. Some of them curiously put down their signs and looked at the two of them with suspicion.
"Huh...they came down from the fourth floor? Aren't people not allowed to pass through the fourth floor?"
Who are those two?
"Should we go up and ask if they want to team up..."
Several new admirals were eager to take a liking to Luo Lian and Warspite, but just as they were about to lead the ship girls up, they were pulled back by some enthusiastic veteran new admirals around them.
"Shh, don't go!" the veteran admiral said with a frown.
"Huh? What's wrong?" The new admiral looked completely bewildered.
"Didn't you see they came down from the fourth floor!"
"Uh... I saw it?"
"The fourth floor is off-limits; only guild leaders are allowed in! You can't possibly be on their level!"
"What? The guild leader? Shouldn't the guild leader be the one on the first floor wearing sunglasses..."
"Idiot! I said only the guild leader is qualified to enter the fourth floor, I didn't say the fourth floor is the guild leader's territory!" The veteran admiral flicked the rookie admiral on the head, then pulled him away from Luo Lian and Warspite, adding, "I saw the guild leader bowing and scraping in front of her that day! She's way more powerful than the guild leader!"
"Ah..." The new admiral gasped, "But, but she looks so young... just who is she...?"
"Hmph, don't be scared if I tell you!"
"Senior, please say..."
"It's said that she and our guild leader are both mistresses of the world's number one admiral! She's the first wife, and the guild leader is the second wife, so the guild leader has to behave properly when he sees her!"
"hiss--"
"..."
The whispers in the third-floor lobby were overheard by Warspite, whose hearing was sharp.
"You're the mistress, your whole family are mistresses..." Warspite muttered under his breath as he helped Luo Lian downstairs, looking utterly speechless. "When will these rumors ever stop..."
The first few chapters of the sea area belong to the new admiral circle. Most of the admirals here are newcomers who have just entered the admiral field, or old players who have been unable to conquer the sea area for various reasons and are moving on to the next chapter. These admirals come from all over the country and have different ages and genders, but there is only one thing they have in common.
That is, they know nothing about the high-level admiral circle and yearn for it, so much so that strange rumors often spread among them, becoming quite outrageous.
For example, Chapter Six is paradise, a place where gold is everywhere. It's common for ship girls to instantly level up by seventy or eighty levels just by walking in and taking a breath of the free air of Chapter Six...
For example, the ship girls under the command of the world's top ten admirals are all war goddesses who can take on a hundred men single-handedly, and they are all fierce women who can punch the Abyssal Commander and kick the Abyssal Fleet...
For example, the world's number one admiral is actually a womanizer and a philanderer...
Pooh!
She's clearly a very cute girl!
Chapter 2059 Seeing Bai
Rumors are truly like tigers spread by three men; the more they are spread, the more ferocious they become. When they reach a dangerous point, public opinion can melt metal, and it's common for people to call a deer a horse.
The new admirals in Chapter 2060, let alone the world's number one admiral, had never even met the admiral in Chapter 6. Of course, they didn't know that the current world's number one admiral was not a man, but a cute girl with white hair and a petite figure.
As a ship girl who had witnessed the face of the world's number one admiral, Warspite had the patience to explain when she first heard these absurd rumors that her admiral was not a mistress and that the president of the admiral's guild was completely innocent. However, one of the main reasons why rumors spread so widely is because their content is so appealing. People simply did not want to believe Warspite's claims and even said that Warspite was a "public relations" and "online army" hired by the world's number one admiral.
Spread a rumor and break a leg.
How could Warspite possibly win an argument with a new admiral in a single chapter?
She couldn't possibly visit each and every new admiral who entered the second chapter, chat for half an hour, and tell them the truth.
This is so tiring.
After all, war-weary was just a lady.
"What's wrong?" Noticing that Warspite's mood was off, Luo Lian turned around and asked Warspite.
"Ah...it's nothing, it's nothing." Warspite shook his head and continued to help Luo Lian downstairs, acting as if nothing had happened. "It was just a buzzing noise, nothing serious, let's continue down!"
War-weary helped Luo Lian walk from the third floor to the second floor.
The third floor is where the Admiral's Guild issues missions, while the second floor is where the Admiral's Guild places ship girl construction machines and ship equipment construction machines.
The ship girl construction machines that were originally placed here were haphazardly connected together by the capricious and flamboyant President Er Gou, who called them the "Ten-Connect Construction Machine." However, due to President Er Gou's extremely low technical skills, the Ten-Connect Construction Machine often encountered problems such as consuming materials, producing excessive smoke, and failing to complete construction by force. Therefore, it was neglected for a long time. It wasn't until Luo Lian personally stepped in, repaired the many problems of the Ten-Connect Construction Machine, and planned and integrated the messy and complicated circuitry that the Ten-Connect Construction Machine's user experience improved.
"Aaaaaah, my ten-pull! I saved up for a whole week for a ten-pull!!"
"Garbage Construction Machine, give me back my resources!"
"No one can resist the temptation of a ten-pull!"
"Hey! I'm hit!"
"What? Someone's made a kill? Brothers, get them! Let's go get the seals!"
"..."
Unlike the third floor, the second floor, although not many admirals are there, is still very noisy.
