“That’s true…” Xiao Bai listened to Luo Lian’s words and turned to look at the water in front of him.
Looking at the shimmering water, Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief.
—If you ask who this training ground is for, the answer is self-evident.
Xiao Bai turned his head and looked into the distance.
Anshan was complaining to Changchun with a helpless expression.
"Comrade, you really have a twisted sense of humor." Anshan raised his hand and said helplessly to Changchun, "To actually put me, whose ship equipment level is only 1, in an exercise against you, Changchun, whose ship equipment level is maxed out... Does she really want to see me embarrass myself in front of her sister?"
“Sister Anshan, the Admiral isn’t that mean-spirited…” Changchun said with a smile while massaging Anshan’s shoulders. “It’s just that everyone wants to see what special power you have, Sister Anshan… For us ship girls, there’s no better way to showcase our characteristics than a real exercise.”
"...Changchun, you're not planning to beat me up, are you?"
"No way, how could I bully Sister Anshan?" Changchun gently hugged Anshan's neck, pressing her soft body against hers as she laughed, "Sister Anshan, just bring it on! I'll do my best to help you impress the Admiral!"
"So you mean you're going to go easy on me?"
"hey-hey."
"...Although I really want to tell you to take the exercise seriously, if you really do take it seriously, I'll probably be defeated instantly, right?"
"After all, the difference in skill level is obvious..."
"..."
As guests of the competition, the relationship between the Changchun and Anshan contestants remained as harmonious and warm as ever, without any hint of hostility.
Xiaobai withdrew her gaze and looked in Nia's direction.
Beside Nia, Veneto, Littorio, and three others huddled together. Veneto and Littorio sat side by side on the same blanket, while the Empire rested peacefully on Veneto's lap, her legs draped over Littorio's.
"Empire, once Admiral Lu Lin's exercise is over, should we have a go too?" Littorio asked Empire, head bowed.
"No, I'm only level 1." Empire waved her hand weakly, then turned around and buried herself in Veneto's ample bosom, making a series of muffled sounds. "I'll wait until my training level catches up before I duel with my sisters. I'll definitely beat them then."
“How arrogant.” Littorio stroked Empire’s long brown hair, a confident smile on his face. “I won’t go easy on you just because you’re my sister.”
It was such a harmonious scene.
Little White watched Veneto and his family of three, thinking to himself.
Just then, a series of footsteps approached Xiaobai.
Xiaobai turned around and saw Missouri smiling as she approached him.
"Admiral, the setup of the training ground is almost complete." Missouri said with a smile, squatting down to face Xiaobai.
"Oh! You've worked hard, Missouri!" Little White smiled at Missouri.
“It’s just a light exercise after a meal.” Missouri shook his head, then stood up. “Admiral, Missouri is going to do the final setup. The exercise should begin in about three minutes.”
After Missouri finished speaking, she waved to the people on Xiaobai's side and then left.
"Little White, your Missouri is as reliable as ever," Nia said to Little White, watching Missouri's retreating figure.
“Yes,” Xiaobai nodded proudly, “I trust her to handle many things.”
At this point, Xiaobai turned to look at Luo Lian.
At this time, Luo Lian was not idle either. During the spare time while waiting for the exercise to start, Luo Lian lowered her head and studied the second problem of the technological lock that Xiao Bai brought back, with a serious and focused expression.
"Lianlian, was the second tech lock question difficult?" Xiaobai asked.
"Hmm... to be honest, the difficulty of these questions has increased a notch." Luo Lian nodded, her gaze not leaving the paper in her hand. "These questions are gradually touching the edge of human ability. At first glance, even I am a little confused about many of them."
"It's so difficult..."
“However… although these questions are extremely difficult, it seems there is a shortcut to find them,” Luo Lian suddenly said.
"A shortcut?" Xiaobai was taken aback. "Is there a shortcut to this problem?"
"I'm not sure, let me check again."
"Oh……"
Luo Lian once again focused her attention on the test questions in her hands.
Xiao Bai didn't disturb Luo Lian. She quietly stood up and dusted herself off.
"Nia," Xiaobai said to Nia as quietly as possible, "I'm going to Anshan and Changchun for a bit..."
"Yes, go ahead without worry." Nia lowered her voice and nodded with a smile.
Xiao Bai bid farewell to Nia and Luo Lian for the time being and headed towards Changchun and Anshan, which were not far away.
"Oh, Admiral, you've arrived." Changchun, who was chatting with Anshan, noticed Xiaobai's approach and greeted him with a smile.
"Changchun, the exercise field is almost ready. Go to the ammunition depot and get ready," Xiaobai said to Changchun with a smile. "Remember to replace the missiles with the exercise fireworks."
"Understood!" Changchun grabbed Anshan's hand and was about to run to the ammunition depot. "Then Anshan and I will go now..."
“Ah, Anshan, stay here.” Xiaobai interrupted Changchun, “I have a few words to say to Anshan.”
"Huh? Does the Admiral want to talk to Sister Anshan?" Changchun was taken aback. She turned to look at Anshan, then at Xiaobai, and blinked her big eyes. "Oh... okay then..."
Changchun released Anshan's hand and bowed to Xiaobai.
"Then, Admiral, I'll head to the ammunition depot alone first."
"Okay, go ahead." Xiaobai nodded with a smile. "Be careful, don't blow up the ammunition depot."
"No, no way..." Changchun blushed instantly upon hearing this.
After exchanging a few simple jokes, Changchun left.
Xiao Bai smiled and watched Changchun walk into the ammunition depot before turning his gaze to Anshan beside him.
"Comrade, what little secret do you want to tell me?" Anshan tilted his head, his light purple eyes fixed on Xiaobai.
"Anshan, will you blame me?" Xiaobai asked with a smile.
"Well?"
"It's very unfair of me to have you, whose ship equipment level is only 1, participate in the exercise with Changchun, whose ship equipment level is maxed out, right..." Xiaobai stared at Anshan's face and said slowly.
"..." Anshan showed a surprised expression, but it quickly turned into a smile. "So that's how it is. Comrade, you're here to do some ideological work on me."
"Yes," Xiaobai smiled.
"...Actually, it's alright." Anshan shrugged. "It's just an exercise. Losing to my sister is a little frustrating, but we're family after all, so it's not something too shameful."
"Thank you for your understanding," Xiaobai said.
"Comrade, you came all this way just to tell me this?" Anshan looked at Xiaobai with a smile.
"...Is all the equipment for the exercise complete?" Xiaobai smiled ambiguously and asked Anshan, "Anshan, you're a missile destroyer, right? Do you have missile launchers?"
"Yes, I do." Anshan nodded. "I was born with one... Oh, but I don't have any really good missiles. Comrade, do you have a few decent anti-ship missiles you could use?"
"Yes, but this is an exercise, so we'll be using exercise fireworks for all our missiles."
“That’s no problem,” Anshan nodded.
"It seems Anshan, you're already prepared for the exercise," Xiaobai said again.
"I don't have anything else to prepare," Anshan said with a smile, spreading his hands.
"..." Xiaobai looked at Anshan's smiling face and smiled back. Then she extended her hand to Anshan and said, "Anshan, let's shake hands."
"A handshake?" Anshan was taken aback. She looked down at Xiaobai's delicate white hand that was offered. Although she didn't quite understand the meaning behind Xiaobai's request for a handshake at this moment, out of trust in the Admiral and Changchun, she still extended her hand and shook Xiaobai's. "...Sure, that's fine..."
"Anshan, here's a gift for you, here you go." Xiaobai smiled slightly at Anshan as she felt her hand being held.
"Hmm? What is the gift..." Anshan was about to ask when suddenly, she was startled.
next second.
A powerful surge of spiritual energy erupted from Xiaobai's body, violently flooding into Anshan's body like a raging torrent.
Chapter 2629 Repair Pool
From Anshan's perspective, Xiaobai, who was serene and leisurely just a second ago, instantly transformed into a terrifying eye of a storm. In an instant, endless and vast spiritual power surged out of her body, spinning wildly as it poured into her body!
In the blink of an eye, Anshan's limbs and bones were instantly filled with ferocious spiritual power.
Anshan instinctively wanted to let go of Xiaobai's hand, but faced with a torrent of mental energy that was so vast that Anshan couldn't comprehend it, she was like an ordinary person trying to push the floodgates with her weak strength at the most ferocious moment of the ocean waves. The terrifying torrent of mental energy kept washing over Anshan's body and suppressing her movements at the same time. Not to mention letting go of Xiaobai's hand, Anshan couldn't even muster the strength to move a finger.
A massive amount of spiritual energy was still relentlessly assaulting Anshan's body, penetrating her body in the blink of an eye and occupying every inch of space within her body.
Unaware of what was happening, Anshan passively endured the violent influx of mental energy, her pupils trembling as she looked at the little white creature before her.
Even though his body was completely filled with mental energy, the fierce ocean of mental energy behind Xiaobai did not weaken in the slightest.
—Wait, all this spiritual energy has to be channeled into my body??
Anshan's pupils contracted, and his face instantly showed a look of resistance and fear.
No, that won't do!
—If the quantity is that large, even my body wouldn't be able to handle it!
—It's going to explode! It's definitely going to explode!
—No, don't come in, don't come in again!
Unfortunately, Anshan's thoughts couldn't reach Xiaobai's ears. Under the suppression of the fierce torrent of mental energy, Anshan could only maintain the gesture of shaking hands with Xiaobai, watching wave after wave of mental energy rush into his body, filling every inch of his body, every piece of skin, and even every cell...
The sound of surging waves echoed in my ears.
Anshan felt that his consciousness was about to dissipate under the impact of the surging spiritual power.
However, just a second before Anshan was about to lose consciousness and roll her eyes back, Xiaobai finally took the initiative to let go of Anshan's tightly clasped hand.
boom! ! !
From Anshan's perspective, the ocean of spiritual energy that permeated the entire world vanished instantly, and the body, which had been suppressed by the heavy torrent, suddenly felt lighter.
Pfft!
Anshan knelt on the ground, completely exhausted. Her mouth was slightly open, and she instinctively hugged her shoulders with both hands, her whole body trembling.
Large drops of sweat oozed from all over Anshan's body, her face flushed as if from strenuous exercise. Her once-fitting clothes were soaked through with sweat, clinging to her body like tight-fitting garments, highlighting her slender and shapely figure.
"Ha, ha... ha..." Anshan hugged his shoulders, panting heavily with a face full of confusion, his pale purple eyes trembling slightly as he looked at the ground. "What, what just happened?"
I had only shaken my comrade's hand.
How could such a thing happen?
Just now, what was that...?
Anshan looked up in a daze at Xiaobai.
At this moment, Xiaobai looked down at Anshan, who was kneeling on the ground, with a gentle smile on his face.
"Anshan, are you feeling alright?" Xiaobai reached out to Anshan, wanting to help her up.
“…Uh…” Anshan looked at the hand Xiaobai offered, and remembering what had just happened, her already flushed face turned even redder. She subconsciously moved a little behind her. “Comrade, what did you just do to me?”
"I just gave you a small gift," Xiaobai said with a smile.
"A little gift?" Anshan looked at Xiaobai in confusion.
"Yes." Xiaobai nodded. Just as she was about to say something, a voice suddenly called out from not far away.
"Admiral, I'm back from the ammunition depot! I even prepared the missiles for Sister Anshan's exercise—wait, Admiral?!" Changchun came running excitedly, carrying several missiles. She greeted Xiaobai and Anshan as she ran. When she saw Anshan's current state, Changchun froze, then looked surprised. "Sister Anshan?? You...you...what happened to you???"
From Changchun's perspective, Anshan, whom he hadn't seen for only a few minutes, looked as if she had survived some kind of world war. She was seen slumped weakly on the dusty ground, her knees and calves covered in grayish dust. For some reason, her whole body was covered in water stains as if she had been drenched in rain, and large drops of sweat were constantly emerging from Anshan's face, gathering on her pointed, snow-white chin, and dripping down her chest.
"Changchun..." Anshan turned his head with difficulty, looked at Changchun who had rushed over, and uttered a series of weak and feeble sounds.
"Sister Anshan?? Did the Admiral do something to you?" Changchun quickly placed the missile carefully at his feet, then hurried to Anshan's side, squatted down and checked her body. "Wow... so hot! Sister Anshan, your body is so hot, it feels as hot as a boiled egg!"
"Changchun...I'm so tired..." Anshan said weakly.
"Sister Anshan, let me help you up!" Changchun quickly helped Anshan up from the ground, then pouted and said to Xiaobai, "Admiral, are you playing pranks on Sister Anshan again?"
"It wasn't exactly a prank..." Seeing Changchun's unhappy expression, Xiaobai quickly raised her hands to indicate her innocence, then stuck out her tongue at her, "Sorry... Changchun, why don't you take Anshan to the ship girl bath to rest and wash up or something?"
“Sister Anshan really can’t do the rehearsal like this.” Changchun sighed helplessly, looking at Anshan who was leaning on her arm with her head down. “Then, Admiral, Sister Anshan and I will go to the bathhouse to rest for a while!”
"Okay, go ahead." Xiaobai waved.
After receiving Xiaobai's instructions, Changchun helped Anshan quickly leave the scene.
The ship girls' public bath is equipped with a powerful healing fluid pool. No matter what physical injury a ship girl suffers, as long as she throws herself into the healing fluid pool without a second thought, she is guaranteed to recover.
