Elder brother's garrison

Xiaobai snapped back to reality after hearing those words. For a moment, she thought the ship girl was implying that she had been staring at her face for too long, so she immediately showed an embarrassed expression.

"Ah...are...alright...?"

Xiaobai scratched his head, looking at the ship girl with a puzzled expression in his eyes.

Although Xiaobai's gaze wasn't exactly polite, the ship girl didn't seem to show any displeasure. She smiled and let Xiaobai look at her, and even spread her arms and spun around in front of Xiaobai so that he could see her more clearly.

A head of long pink hair danced in the sunlight, each glistening strand shimmering with a golden light.

In a daze, a strange scene seemed to flash through Xiaobai's mind.

Amidst the sea of ​​people, under the sealed environment of the dome, a slender girl in pink stood on a stage surrounded by glow sticks. Holding an electric guitar in her arms, she smiled brightly. As sweat streamed down her face, she swayed her body and shouted desperately to the audience...

The girl shouting on the stage and the pink ship girl standing in front of me, those two seemingly unrelated figures slowly merged before my eyes.

Eh?

Wait a minute... this atmosphere... could it be...?

As Xiaobai looked at the pink ship girl in front of her, her pupils widened uncontrollably for a moment.

"Still haven't you recognized it?" The pink ship girl lowered her hand towards Shiro, then pouted, "Seriously, you've been staring at it for so long. If you still don't recognize it, even I'll get angry."

"Hey! Wait a minute, could it be that you, you are..." Xiaobai raised her finger in surprise at the pink ship girl.

"Alaskan sister!!!"

Just as Xiaobai was about to speak, a gentle call came from behind her, near the direction of the factory being modified.

"Alaska-neechan! What are you doing here? I've told you so many times not to run so far. Dr. Yubari said we only have two hours to breathe fresh air—" A blue figure ran over from the distant modification factory, waving her fair arms and calling out. As she approached the pink ship girl and Shiro, she suddenly stopped, and a look of surprise appeared on her beautiful face. "Hmm...? Admiral?!"

Xiaobai turned around at the sound and exchanged a glance with the blue ship girl who had followed her.

The blue ship girl that appeared in Xiaobai's field of vision had a similar style of dress to the pink ship girl, and their figures were almost identical. They were both fair-skinned, tall, and youthful. However, the only obvious difference was that, in addition to the fact that "pink" had been replaced by "blue", the blue ship girl also had a blue split tie tied on her exposed chest, which bounced on her chest with her steps.

When the blue ship girl saw Xiaobai, she slowed her pace considerably, approached Xiaobai with a gentle and friendly expression, and began to speak to herself.

"Admiral, when did you arrive here?" The blue ship girl gently touched her tie with one hand and said to Shiro in a gentle and elegant tone, "I didn't expect to have the opportunity to meet you before the modification is completely finished. It's a pleasant surprise... Please give me your greetings."

"..." Xiaobai stared at the blue ship girl, his gaze wandering up and down her body.

"Admiral?" The blue ship girl seemed oblivious to the suspicion in Shiro's eyes, tilting her head in confusion.

"...Are you from Guam?"

“…Yes, Admiral.” The blue ship girl…or rather, Guam, nodded in response as if it were the most natural thing in the world, her eyes revealing a hint of concern and confusion. “Admiral, what’s wrong with you? Why do you seem like you don’t recognize me anymore?”

"...Guam, haven't you looked in the mirror for the past week?"

"I do look in the mirror every day..." Guam replied, unconsciously touching his face.

Looking at Guam's appearance and posture, Xiaobai turned her gaze away with a strange expression and looked at the pink ship girl on the other side.

The pink ship girl was looking at Xiaobai with a smile on her face.

— Xiaobai finally understands where the sense of familiarity with this ship girl comes from.

“Alaska…” Xiaobai said to the pink ship girl.

"I'm here, Admiral." The pink ship girl... or rather, Alaska, immediately nodded in response to Xiaobai. She touched her chest and bowed slightly to Xiaobai. "Greetings, my Admiral."

"My God...did you two go for a makeover, or did you get plastic surgery..." Xiaobai rubbed her forehead, momentarily at a loss for words. "No...I feel like even describing you two as having plastic surgery isn't quite right. Who changes their physique and voice like that...you've basically gotten a new body..."

It turns out... these pink and blue ship girls are the Alaskan and Guam sisters, who were sent to the modification factory by Xiaobai a week ago for modifications...

While it's true that ship girl modifications can sometimes alter their appearance, I never expected Alaska and Guam to change so drastically... Seriously, it's like they got completely different character designs and art styles!

It's not that Xiaobai couldn't recognize them; it's just that they've changed so much that Xiaobai instinctively felt like they were complete strangers.

This is a high-purity, Changchun-grade modified dental implant!

Seeing Xiaobai's puzzled and surprised expression, Guam and Alaska exchanged a glance.

"Guam, see what I told you? I told you the Admiral wouldn't recognize us like this, right?" Alaska declared victory to Guam like a triumphant victor.

“That’s because Alaska has changed a lot,” Guam immediately said to Alaska. “But as soon as I came out, didn’t the Admiral recognize me?”

“Guam, there’s something I’m not sure if I should say, but actually, you’ve changed just as much as I have…” Alaska said to Guam, “The Admiral recognized you just now, probably because we both appeared at the same time, right? It’s quite distinctive for the two of us to appear together. After all, the Admiral is a bit slow-witted, but she’s not stupid. Just now, when I hugged the Admiral, I deliberately squeezed her with my chest, and she was enjoying it.”

"Um, I'm still here..." Xiaobai said softly.

"Ah, sorry, Admiral, I didn't mean to say you're stupid." Alaska looked at Shiro and said with a smile, "But it was really funny when you called me 'big sister' just now."

"..." Xiaobai covered her face and sighed.

"Admiral? Why do you call Alaska 'big sister'?" Guam looked at Xiaobai with a puzzled expression. "Doesn't she like being called Alaska's name?"

“That’s a good question…” Xiaobai took a deep breath and gave Guam a weary look. “Guam, Alaska, I’ve decided. I’ll write the thank-you notes to the two of you tomorrow.”

"?"Guam.

"?" Alaska.

A gentle breeze blew by, and the blue hair behind Guam and the pink hair behind Alaska fluttered in the wind.

"Ah...it's a bit cold..." Alaska hugged his arms and said to Little White, "Admiral, we have to go back to the modification factory."

"Hmm... it's kind of uncomfortable without ship equipment in our bodies right now..." Guam nodded, touching her chest with a complicated expression on her face, "I just feel really uneasy..."

"So... your ship equipment modification has reached the final stage?" Xiaobai asked the two of them.

“Yes,” Guam and Alaska nodded. “Our ship equipment has been modified and is just waiting for the final integration with our new bodies.”

"You just mentioned a new body, right? I didn't mishear, did I?"

"Admiral, what are you thinking? Our bodies are still the same as before, it's just that the ship equipment has been modified and there have been some changes." Alaska waved her hand with a smile.

"I remember we were just talking about how much you've changed..."

"Haha, Admiral, you're so funny. Come on, let's go back to the conversion factory." Alaska walked over, took Whitey's hand, and strode towards the conversion factory. "This body is really weak when it's not equipped with ship gear. Even the cold wind outside makes it feel freezing."

“...The human body...well…” Little White subconsciously followed Alaska’s lead, muttering to herself as she looked up at the backs of Alaska and Guam.

The ship girl's modification... This isn't the first time Xiaobai has watched it.

As for the modification process of ship girls, Xiaobai can be considered someone who is a novice but becomes proficient after a few tries.

Currently, Alaska and Guam are probably in the final stage of ship equipment modification—that is, the ship equipment that was temporarily separated from their bodies has been externally modified, and now the new ship equipment is being tested by Yubari in an attempt to reintegrate into their bodies.

The time required for this fusion depends on the compatibility between the ship girl and the new ship equipment.

It might take about a week if it's fast.

It might take half a month, a month, or even three or four months, or more than half a year, for some.

Based on Xiaobai's recent experience, Guam and Alaska's ship equipment integration into their bodies has only just begun. In other words, their ship equipment hasn't yet provided them with any power support. To put it another way, aside from being quite beautiful, Guam and Alaska are currently no different from ordinary human women in terms of strength and physique. This is why, when Alaska ambushed Xiaobai, although Xiaobai vaguely sensed that it was a ship girl, she couldn't recognize it immediately.

After all, the admiral's mark that Xiaobai left on the ship equipment in Alaska and Guam is currently in the modification factory...

Chapter 3855 "The Admiral"

As Xiaobai walked and chatted with Alaska and Guam, the two ship girls, one in front and one behind, held Xiaobai's hands and guided her toward the modification factory.

Guam has a quiet and gentle personality, which remains the same both before and after the modification. As for her sister Alaska's personality... just like their corresponding representative colors, the sisters Alaska and Guam have always complemented each other in terms of personality. Alaska, symbolizing pink, is very cheerful and talkative. She is like a pink flame that is always leaping, explosive and flamboyant, full of youthful energy.

On the way back to the modification factory, while the two ship girls were talking, Xiaobai kept secretly observing their current appearance.

Ok……

What to say.

Although I was already surprised once before, the changes in Guam and Alaska... are truly significant in every sense.

"Hmm? Who's spying on me?"

Alaska seemed to notice Little White's gaze, and she smiled and turned to look at Little White.

“Alaska, strictly speaking, the admiral wasn’t peeking; she was openly looking at you,” Guam added without looking away.

“Of course I know that.” Alaska raised her hand and tossed her long hair behind her. “So… even the admiral who has seen countless ships at the naval base has started to take an interest in my beautiful new look after the modifications?”

"...Seeing that the renovation went so smoothly, I'm relieved," Xiaobai said.

When Xiaobai and his two companions returned to the modification factory, they saw that the factory was bustling with people coming and going, much more lively than it appeared from the outside.

The ship girls accompanying the ship were chatting in twos and threes. They were talking and laughing, but when they heard footsteps coming from the factory gate, they all closed their mouths and looked over.

Upon seeing Xiaobai, the ship girls in the factory immediately greeted her warmly.

"Admiral! You're here again!"

"Good afternoon, Admiral!"

"The admiral's arrival is perfectly timed..."

The ship girls greeted Xiaobai familiarly, all smiles.

During the time the missile ship girls were being modified, Xiaobai would come to the modification factory every now and then. Although she was unlucky and didn't see the modified ship girls, the guard ship girls who stayed here became very familiar with Xiaobai.

Hello everyone...

Xiaobai raised her hand and waved to the ship girls. Her gaze swept over everyone present and landed precisely on Changchun and Jinan in the crowd.

After nodding and smiling at Changchun from afar, Xiaobai curiously looked around at his surroundings.

The ship girls were busy with their own things, but to Xiaobai's surprise, there were no other modified ship girls in the entire factory.

After watching for a while, Xiaobai turned his head with some confusion to look at Guam and Alaska behind him.

"Alaska, Guam, haven't the other modified ship girls come out yet?"

"After all, everyone's ship type is different, and the progress of ship equipment modification is also different." Alaska explained with a smile. Seeing that no one was occupying the sofa next to her, she walked over and sat down on it. She even picked up the grapes on the table and popped them into her mouth one by one.

“My ship girl and Alaska were the first to be modified, so our progress is a little faster. We were also the first ship girls to enter the ship equipment fusion period. The ship equipment of the others has not been fully modified yet, so they are still resting in the nutrient tanks.” Guam explained to Xiaobai.

"Oh...I see." Xiaobai nodded. "How long have you been out?"

"We're just coming out to get some fresh air. We still have to go back later." Guam patted his chest and explained to Xiaobai, "Dr. Yubari said that our bodies are still relatively weak, and it's best not to leave the sterile environment before we've fully integrated with the ship equipment... But my sister has been inside for more than a week, and she's feeling very uncomfortable. That's why Dr. Yubari agreed to let my sister and me come out for a few hours of free time."

"Guam, the way you're talking makes it sound like you didn't want to come out yourself." Alaska, sitting on the sofa, said to Guam, "You were quite happy about it after Dr. Ming agreed to let us come out, weren't you?"

"I don't deny it." Guam smiled faintly at Alaska.

"Sigh, so the eternal law of this world is that only the squeaky wheel gets the grease."

Alaska sighed, put down a bunch of grapes with the stems completely removed, crossed her legs, pulled out a pink electric guitar from behind the sofa, and placed it on her lap while still crossing her legs.

Alaska took a deep breath, and her fair and slender fingers lightly swept across the strings of the electric guitar, producing a perfectly balanced mixed string sound.

"Admiral, I've had a bit of inspiration during this renovation period. Would you like me to play a little tune I composed for you?"

"Huh? Did you create this yourself during the modification?" Xiaobai became interested upon hearing this.

"I can't guarantee it will sound good~" Alaska smiled at Little White.

Xiaobai smiled, and just as she was about to reply, she suddenly felt a pair of hands gently pressing on her shoulders.

Xiaobai turned around and saw Guam standing behind her. Guam gently pressed Xiaobai's shoulder and gently placed her in the seat opposite Alaska.

"Admiral, the skills of the Alaskan sister are trustworthy, please feel free to try them out."

"Oh, okay, okay..."

Xiaobai nodded subconsciously. She quickly recalled that when she came to Alaska and Guam for renovation, she had the opportunity to hear Alaska perform an electric guitar solo on stage in a concert hall. It was indeed a level of skill that even a complete novice in rock music could immediately recognize.

So...Alaska is giving itself special treatment?

Thinking about this, Xiaobai couldn't help but feel a little honored.

Sitting opposite Xiaobai, Alaska gently stroked the strings. Looking at the expectant look on Xiaobai's face, she said, "Admiral, shall I begin?"

"Is it okay if that guitar doesn't plug in?" Xiaobai pointed to the electric guitar in Alaska's arms.

"Hmm? What's this plugged-in? Oh... you mean this?" Alaska glanced at the guitar in her arms following Little White's finger. She smiled, then followed the guitar's cable and pulled a palm-sized black speaker from under the table, placing it on the table. "Here, this will do."

Xiaobai nodded and immediately placed her hands on her thighs.

Alaska pursed her lips slightly, her gaze gradually becoming absorbed, and then her fingers gently swept across the strings.

Melodious string music soon emanated from the speakers on the table.

Xiao Bai was slightly surprised when she first heard the music—she had heard Alaska's guitar solos before, and Alaska's impression of her was that of explosive and flamboyant. The music she played was like waves bursting outwards in waves, making people's blood boil. Xiao Bai thought that Alaska would also play a rock song of this style this time, but to her surprise, the music Alaska played this time was slow and melodious, like white clouds lazily floating in the blue sky, like water tinkling across the grassland. The emotions contained in the music were much gentler and more soothing than the explosive rock music.

Xiaobai subconsciously turned his head and made eye contact with Guam behind him.

Guam smiled slightly at Little White.

Xiao Bai withdrew his gaze and looked at Alaska sitting on the sofa, legs crossed, electric guitar tucked between his legs, immersed in his own musical world.
