tonight.
The moon was exceptionally round.
……
Moonlight shone on the yacht.
Little White hugged his legs, looked at the moon in the sky, and yawned.
Xiao Bai looked to the side.
Montana, like a welder, held his exoskeleton power system, flames shooting out from his fingers and constantly spraying them at the exoskeleton system.
Wow, that's high technology!
It took so long to fix.
Little White cupped his cheeks, watching Montana intently repairing the equipment, and thought to himself.
Just as Xiaobai was engrossed in Montana's focused expression, the golden flame on Montana's finger finally went out with a "poof".
Montana let out a long sigh of relief, raised her snow-white arms, and stretched.
"Um—finally, it's finished!!!"
"Huh? It's all fixed!"
Upon hearing Montana's words, Xiaobai immediately stood up, a hopeful smile appearing on his face, and hurriedly walked towards Montana's direction.
Montana set the power system aside, then picked up a tactical jacket and tactical headgear and draped them over himself.
“Hmm… After suffering an EMP attack, most of the archived data was destroyed, but fortunately, the core components can still be replaced.” Montana raised her hand, and her tactical jacket slowly emitted a blue light. She pressed her palm in the air, her fingers moving nimbly like playing the piano. “Hmm… First, register a new user, then upload the data to the local server, then add it to the whitelist, and finally… hmm, done!”
Montana lowered his hand and smiled at Little White.
"Pachina, my tactical equipment is working properly now. I told you before that I could let you try it out. Would you like to give it a try?"
"Hmm! I want to try!" Xiaobai's eyes lit up, and she nodded quickly.
Montana took off his tactical jacket and draped it over Xiaobai's shoulders.
Montana then removed his crown and handed it to White.
Montana's clothes were several sizes too big for Xiaobai. For example, Montana's tactical jacket, which looked like a trench coat to her size, looked like a long dress on Xiaobai, covering almost her entire body.
Before Xiaobai could even worry about the size of the clothes, Montana placed the crown in Xiaobai's hand on Xiaobai's head.
Then a creaking sound was heard.
The crown immediately shrank to a size suitable for a beginner.
The blue tech-inspired trench coat, originally resembling a long dress, shrank rapidly, transforming into a slightly bulky garment that perfectly complemented Xiaobai's shape.
"Huh? You can do that?" Xiaobai looked at herself in surprise.
“I just registered a temporary account for you and entered your body data into it,” Montana said to Xiaobai. “Now you can use this outfit, and the style will naturally be adjusted to be the most comfortable for you.”
"Wow...that's amazing..." Xiaobai murmured to himself, but then suddenly became curious and looked up at Montana, "But Montana, where did you get my body data from?"
"You're allowed to stare at my feet, thighs, and chest, but I'm not allowed to look at you?" Montana said with a laugh.
"..."
Xiao Bai's face turned red, and he was covered in sweat. Feeling guilty, he had nothing to say.
White steam billowed from Xiaobai's forehead, standing out starkly against the cold sea breeze.
Chapter 3001 The Promise with My Wife
Xiao Bai never expected that her secret observation of Montana's body would be discovered so easily.
She truly deserves to be called the world's number one ship girl.
How alert Montana is!
Even though Xiaobai secretly peeks at Missouri and Akagi, they never notice his prying; he always lets them see what he wants.
"Let's... let's talk about equipment instead..."
Xiao Bai blushed, covered her head, and whispered to Montana.
When Montana saw Little White lower his head, a faint smile appeared on his face.
“Pachina, after you put on the crown, press here.” Montana reached out and cupped his ear with his fingertips.
"Ears?" Xiaobai took two deep breaths, forcing herself to calm down, and then, imitating Montana, reached out and touched her own ears.
Xiao Bai's fingertip touched the area around his ear and quickly touched a button-like spot.
This is where the tactical crown is covered. It resembles headphones in shape, with a small, delicate button on the outside of the headphones.
Xiao Bai looked at Montana and pressed the button on his ear.
Snapped!
The moment Xiaobai pressed the button, light green goggles sprang out from the crown and stopped in front of Xiaobai's eyes.
At the same time, a feminine, mechanical sound effect appeared in Xiaobai's ears.
"Welcome to Tactical Assist Device ZW0822. This system will provide you with precise and perfect combat assistance. New user: Miss Pachina. This system has detected that this is your first time using this facility. For your best experience, would you like to start the tutorial?"
"Beginner's tutorial..." Xiaobai murmured in a mechanical voice, looking at Montana.
Montana nodded with a smile.
Xiao Bai took a deep breath, pressed his ear, and spoke into the mechanical voice.
"Then let's start it."
"Beginner's Tutorial, Section 1: System UI Explanation—"
As soon as the mechanical voice in Xiaobai's ear fell, a dozen dialog boxes suddenly appeared in front of Xiaobai's eyes through the light green goggles.
These dialog boxes are filled with a large amount of obscure and difficult-to-understand data. And as time goes by, this data is being refreshed at an extremely rapid pace.
"hiss--"
Xiao Bai gasped.
What's going on? The user interface of this system looks like the operating platform in those hacker movies I used to watch—it's so hardcore…
"The user's heart rate has been detected to be elevated, reaching the normal vital signs threshold. Would you like to continue the beginner's tutorial?"
"Ah this..."
"The user's heart rate has returned to normal. A beginner's tutorial will be automatically started for you."
Before Xiaobai could respond, the chat boxes that appeared in front of her suddenly multiplied from a dozen to dozens of different sizes.
These dialog boxes almost filled Xiaobai's entire field of vision, making him dizzy.
From Montana's perspective, Little White held the crown and swayed in place for a while before finally kneeling down, pressing her hands against the deck, lowering her head, and falling silent.
“Pachina? What’s wrong?” Montana crouched down and asked curiously.
"Montana..." Little White looked up pitifully at Montana, who was so close to him, "I can't take it anymore..."
"No means...?"
"I can't use this operating system..." Xiaobai sighed, took off her crown, and hugged it to her chest with a dejected look. "I can't even get past the first lesson of this operating system's tutorial... There are just too many dialog boxes, data, and various operations. It's making me very flustered."
"A lot?" Montana asked, somewhat surprised. "Didn't the beginner's tutorial explain it very clearly?"
“I feel… this is a limitation of our times…” Xiaobai looked at Montana’s incomprehension and felt even more disappointed. “Ordinary people like me simply can’t use such a hardcore operating system…”
Xiao Bai initially thought that Montana's equipment was the kind that could effortlessly boost the wearer's combat power simply by equipping it.
After all, Montana seemed to use this gear with great ease and even enjoyment.
When Xiaobai put it on herself, she discovered that the complexity of the equipment system was even more exaggerated than the experimental computer in Yubari that she had seen before... Not to mention improving Xiaobai's combat power, Xiaobai couldn't even understand the function of every dialog box in these operating systems.
Montana...it's terrifying.
Little White returned the crown to Montana and sighed deeply.
"Montana, let's forget about it. This equipment is probably only usable by you," Xiaobai said with a sigh to Montana.
"Won't you try again?" Montana asked Little White, holding his crown. "If you really don't understand, I can explain it to you."
"This equipment isn't a matter of whether I understand it or not..." Xiaobai shook his head and said regretfully, "I guess I lack the necessary training... If it were Lianlian, she might be able to handle it, but for me... never mind... I think I should just give up."
The best lesson Xiaobai learned in his more than ten years of life was that when faced with impossible problems, he should learn to make peace with himself and give up decisively.
Seeing that Xiaobai had made up his mind and was slowly taking off his coat, Montana played with the crown in his hand and blinked.
"Pachina".
"Ok?"
"The Lianlian you just mentioned... is she your admiral?"
No...she's my good friend.
"She's human?"
"Yes, she is the smartest person I have ever met."
"Don't you admirals of your era get angry when you see your ship girls interacting with other humans?"
"Uh..." Xiaobai scratched her cheek and turned her head to the side. "As for my admiral... um... probably... uh... he won't be angry if he sees that I get along well with Lianlian."
Montana stared unblinkingly at Little White.
Montana's gaze was calm, yet incredibly penetrating, as if he knew all of Little White's secrets.
Xiao Bai was covered in sweat.
"Alright." Fortunately, Montana didn't say anything more. She just smiled slightly and put the crown back on her head.
The crown, originally designed to fit Xiaobai's shape, expanded the size the moment it touched Montana's forehead, fitting her head perfectly.
"Tactical jacket, here you go." Xiaobai handed the jacket to Montana with both hands.
"Thank you." Montana thanked Xiaobai and put his coat back on.
The tactical jacket that fit Xiaobai's body transformed back into a large trench coat the moment it touched Montana's body, and she draped it back over her shoulders.
“I registered a temporary account for you…” Montana said to Xiaobai.
"Delete it," Xiaobai sighed.
“I think I’ll keep it.” Montana shook his head and smiled slightly at Xiaobai. “If you want to try this gear again in the future, I can lend it to you. The account records here won’t take up much memory.”
Montana truly showed boundless pampering and friendliness towards Xiaobai.
Montana was so hospitable that Xiaobai couldn't refuse.
"Thank you then..." Xiaobai said to Montana in a low voice.
“I’m a little disappointed. I was looking forward to seeing what you would look like wearing the power system, but I didn’t expect you to give up before even getting through the tutorial.” Montana said as she walked to the power system that was placed to the side. She gently placed her hands on the entrance of the power system, jumped lightly, and her whole body was suspended in the air as if she were doing pull-ups.
Montana's long, slender legs, clad in black stockings, slowly penetrated the power system.
The mechanical system sensed Montana's entry and gradually tightened, enveloping Montana's thighs.
The cold machinery left slight indentations on the soft flesh of Montana's thighs.
After returning to the power system, Montana paced back and forth for a moment, then nodded and went back to Little White.
"Montana, speaking of which, don't you feel uncomfortable wearing these mechanical legs?" Xiaobai stared at Montana's legs for a while and suddenly asked.
"Actually, as for the user experience, it's fine as long as you get used to it." Montana thought for a while and smiled at Xiaobai. "There's no need to worry about comfort. As I said before, as long as the system doesn't malfunction, this equipment will automatically conform to the user's body. In a sense, it's actually less strenuous than me moving on my own two legs."
"Does using this also require that complicated operating system?"
"It's not complicated for me."
"Oh……"
“Your basket.” Montana bent down and picked up the basket from the ground. She closed her eyes, sniffed inside, and then pushed the basket to Little White. “Tonight was a sweet night, and I will remember it—both you and the loving cook who helped me with the meal. I look forward to seeing her in person after it’s all over.”
"Hmm..." Xiaobai took the basket and smiled at Montana, "There will be opportunities."
"Don't get defeated before I fix your ship's equipment," Xiaobai said to Montana with a smile.
"Don't worry." Montana smiled at Little White. "Besides you, I don't think anyone in this world can defeat me."
Xiaobai waved to Montana, then walked to the edge of the yacht and glanced at the sea and sky.
