Elder brother's garrison

Admiral Chen Qing suddenly felt lost.

Wasn't Admiral Lu Lin here to participate in the exercise? She's not bringing any ship girls; is she going to go and fight by herself?

impossible……

Admiral Chen Qing quickly dismissed this absurd idea that had only existed in his mind for a moment.

At the same time, the referee asked Xiaobai the question that had been on Admiral Chen Qing's mind.

"Admiral Lu Lin, your exercise is about to begin. Have you selected the ship girls you will be sending out?" the referee prompted tactfully.

"Ah, I've made my choice." Xiaobai nodded with a smile.

"Well... you may now invite your ship girl into the arena," the referee said, seeing that Xiaobai still didn't make any move to call for her ship girl.

“My ship girls aren’t here.” Xiaobai shook her head, scratched her head, and smiled sheepishly. “It’s like this, because I randomly selected this exercise, I wasn’t at the temporary naval base at the time, and my ship girls weren’t with me either… So to save time, after I told my ship girls at home about the exercise, I came here alone.”

"Oh... I see. Are you waiting for your ship girl to arrive?" The referee suddenly understood.

"No, let's start the exercise right away." Xiaobai shook her head. "No need to wait for my ship girl."

When Xiao Bai said this, both Admiral Chen Qing and the referee were stunned for a moment.

"Admiral Lu Lin, your ship girl isn't here... It's difficult to start this exercise." The referee said with difficulty, "After all... if your ship girl is absent after the exercise starts, I will have to rule that you lose because your ship girl is not present."

"Um... May I ask, from the start of the exercise until you determine that my ship girl is not present and concede defeat, how long does it take?" Xiaobai thought for a while and asked.

"Uh?"

"So, how long will it take you to determine that my ship girl isn't present after the exercise starts, and then declare me the loser?" Xiaobai asked.

"This..." The referee immediately frowned, looking troubled. "It should only take a glance, about five seconds?"

The question that Xiaobai just raised did indeed directly touch upon a blind spot in the referee's knowledge.

After the exercise begins, the referee only needs to glance at whether the ship girls of both sides are in position. The referee just tried to simulate the time it takes to judge by sight, and it only takes less than five seconds.

"Five seconds..." Xiaobai nodded after hearing the referee's words, and smiled slightly, "Then let's say it's five seconds."

"...You mean..."

"Okay, let's just use five seconds as the standard time," Xiaobai said with a smile. "After the exercise starts, you can declare me the loser after five seconds. Whether it's deducting points or banning me from participating in exercises for three months, it's up to you."

"Oh, this..." The referee was completely dumbfounded upon hearing this.

Upon hearing this, Admiral Chen Qing was stunned for a moment, then his eyes instantly filled with ecstatic joy.

what?

Admiral Lu Lin is planning to surrender five seconds after the exercise begins?!

Is there such a good thing? !

Admiral Chen Qing had been feeling utterly hopeless, but after hearing Xiao Bai's words, his heart started pounding again.

According to the rules of this exercise, the stronger the enemy defeated, the more points will be awarded upon victory...

The points needed to defeat the world's number one ranked player... could be terrifying...

These points are all free!

No, that's not right! This is a point given to me by Admiral Lu Lin!

With such a large number of points, I might be able to break into the top twenty... or even the top ten!

Admiral Chen Qing trembled again, but this time he was excited. He looked at the referee and nodded frantically, almost pleading for his approval of the exercise.

The referee was initially in a difficult position, but under Xiaobai's gentle smile, even the referee had no choice but to comply with Xiaobai's idea and nodded helplessly.

"Well... alright then, Admiral Lu Lin." The referee sighed, and finally said, "Let's do it your way."

After the referee finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Admiral Chen Qing, who was flushed with excitement.

"So... Admiral Lu Lin is ready. Admiral Chen Qing, are you ready?"

"Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright!!!" Admiral Chen Qing nodded repeatedly like a broken record, excitedly saying.

At this moment, tempted by the huge amount of victory points, Admiral Chen Qing even forgot the terror behind the title of the world's number one admiral for a short time.

The referee looked helplessly at the water surface of the training field.

On the exercise field, only Admiral Chen Qing and his group of ship girls remained on the water.

Admiral Chen Qing's ship girls released their ship equipment. The group of ship girls stood back to back, staring in all directions. They were tense and ready for battle, as if some fully armed ninja or assassin might jump out of the air at any moment and kill them with a single blow.

"Then... shall I begin?" The referee looked at Xiaobai.

"You're the referee, you can start whenever you want," Xiaobai smiled.

“…Well…” The referee winked, then looked helplessly at the sea. Under the excited gaze of Admiral Chen Qing, he raised his hand, gripped the starting pistol, and pressed the trigger towards the sky. “This exercise officially begins!”

Snapped!

The starting pistol fired a loud shot into the sky.

There were very few responses.

The referee put down the starting pistol and looked at the sea where only Admiral Chen Qing's fleet of ship girls was present.

Admiral Chen Qing, standing to the side, was counting down with his neck veins bulging.

The sea remained calm and quiet.

A second passed.

Two seconds passed.

Three seconds passed.

The referee glanced at Xiaobai, who stood calmly to the side with a smile, and sighed helplessly.

"According to the rules, in this exercise, the ship girls from Admiral Lu Lin's side did not arrive on time, therefore this competition..."

The referee had just raised his hand.

Suddenly.

Just as the referee was about to declare Xiaobai the loser, and Admiral Chen Qing was about to cheer,

swoosh————

swoosh————

swoosh————

A series of loud cries suddenly rang out in the sky.

Then, several white streaks shot out from the sky above the city in Chapter Eight, crossing the city and the beach with lightning speed, and reaching the sea.

The white flying shadow arrived at the training ground in an instant and exploded towards Admiral Chen Qing's ship girls.

The ship girls of Admiral Chen Qing and his crew were already on high alert. As soon as they saw the white flying figure, they instantly began to move.

However... the speed of the white flying shadows was far faster than that of the ship girls. In almost an instant, Admiral Chen Qing's ship girls were caught up and hit by all the flying shadows.

Everything happened in a single instant.

Bang bang bang bang bang bang——

Then, the fiery red light flashed incessantly.

The light went out, and the thick smoke dissipated.

Under the utterly dumbfounded gaze of Admiral Chen Qing, and the shocked eyes of the admirals watching from the beach, the powerful ship girl team that had once achieved eight consecutive victories and sent the world's 50th-ranked admirals running for their lives was now lying face down on the water, their ship equipment shattered in pieces, in a state of severe damage, and unconscious.

Admiral Chen Qing's mouth dropped open.

The referee stared blankly at the sea.

Just then, Xiaobai's voice came over.

"Referee, has five seconds passed yet?" Xiaobai asked with a smile.

Everyone stared blankly at Xiaobai.

"Before you declared me the loser, this admiral's ship girls had already been defeated by mine," Xiaobai asked with a smile. "So, who wins now, me or him?"

"Uh...five seconds...five seconds..." The referee looked down dumbfounded. "I...I don't know...this..."

This was the first time the referee had encountered such a situation.

This situation isn't mentioned in the Admiral's Guild's referee rules...

Uh... or rather, what exactly happened just now?

The referee, looking bewildered, pulled out his camera and retrieved the footage of the recent battle.

After the video was replayed to the start of the battle, the referee stared intently at the time in the lower right corner.

The first three seconds.

Nothing appeared on the sea surface.

In the fourth second, a row of white flying shadows appeared in the sky.

In the fifth second, the flying shadows struck the ship girls of Admiral Chen Qing's family, shattering their ship equipment into pieces.

……

The referee, bewildered, adjusted the video, finally pausing it the instant Fei Ying appeared.

Through the high-speed camera's replication, the referee finally saw clearly that the flying shadows in the sky were actually a row of snow-white missiles.

Oh……

Oh, it was a missile.

The referee suddenly realized.

Remember when Admiral Lu Lin defeated Montana and brought him to the naval base? It was through long-range missile fire that he forced Montana to surrender.

When we first saw this scene, perhaps because Montana's defenses were so outstanding, hundreds and thousands of missiles exploded on her like firecrackers, but they didn't do anything to her for a while. As a result, no one felt how powerful the missiles were, and they even felt that the missiles were a bit ticklish.

However, the reaction of Admiral Chen Qing's ship girls just now completely demonstrated that missiles are definitely not just a tickle—their power is comparable to, or even greater than, the main gun fire of artillery ship girls!

The referee exhales.

Putting the camera device aside, the referee looked at the still bewildered Admiral Chen Qing and Xiao Bai with a faint smile. The referee raised the arm on the side leaning against Xiao Bai and shouted loudly.

"According to the video replay, Admiral Chen Qing's ship girls... were all defeated within five seconds of the start of the battle, so... the winner of this exercise is Admiral Lu Lin!"

As soon as these words came out.

The crowd on the beach erupted in uproar.

Defeat the enemy in five seconds!!!

Chapter 3139 Your Opponent's Hidden Score is Too High

Just as the referee raised his arm toward Xiaobai and loudly proclaimed that Xiaobai had won the random exercise.

Admiral Chen Qing stared blankly at the sea surface of the exercise area, where his own ship girls lay motionless on the water.

—Admiral Chen Qing's mind is a bit muddled right now.

A hundred thoughts and a thousand ideas swirled in Admiral Chen Qing's mind, making it difficult for him to accept the current reality.

……etc?

...Did I...lose?

...So the world's number one admiral was just about to surrender?

...five seconds...

The ship girls that I was so proud of couldn't even last five seconds without me even glancing at Admiral Lu Lin's ship girls?

A strong sense of absurdity enveloped Admiral Chen Qing's heart. Faced with such reality, Admiral Chen Qing felt no anger, no shock, and no intense emotions such as fear. The only emotion he could feel at this moment was... bewilderment.

A profound sense of bewilderment.

what?

Lost?

Just like that... we lost?

what?
