When Yubari dragged Shiro back to the hibernation chamber, before they could even check the situation inside, they could clearly smell a strong burnt odor in the air.
Oh wow.
It seems something really did happen here.
Xiao Bai's gaze unconsciously swept across the nearby hibernation pods. She saw that two of the nutrient pods inside the hibernation chamber had been pushed open from the inside. The doors of the two nutrient pods were wide open, and the transparent liquid that had been inside had all flowed out, forming a large puddle on the ground outside the pods. The nutrient solution seemed to still be quite warm, and wisps of white steam were constantly rising from the puddle on the ground and inside the pods, obscuring the view around the nutrient pods.
"Cough cough cough..."
"Knock knock knock..."
Two coughs came from the water stains.
White mist swirled around the nutrient solution outside the two nutrient tanks. As the scalding steam gradually dissipated, two slender figures sitting in the water stains could be vaguely seen.
Those were two curvaceous, snow-white female figures.
They were wearing simple, revealing home lab coats, coughing with their heads down and their mouths covered. Their two long, muscular legs were pressed together on the floor, while their two calves were spread apart. Their long blue and deep pink hair were wet and clung to their skin, trembling slightly on their shoulders with their soft coughs. The almost dissipated water vapor made their damp bodies look like lotus flowers emerging from the water, appearing charming and alluring.
Upon seeing the two figures, Xiaobai blinked, a knowing look flashing in her eyes.
Alaska, Guam?
"Cough cough cough...Admiral?"
Hearing Xiaobai's call, the figure in the mist slowly raised its head and waved its slender arm forward.
Finally, the moisture that had been obscuring the view dissipated completely, and the figure with long pink hair sat in the water, staring blankly at Little White at the door.
"Admiral...we should have just parted ways...how come we're meeting again so soon..." Alaska gave Little White a flustered smile. She looked down at her steaming body, then slowly stood up, supporting herself on the ground. "Did something go wrong in the lab...I remember I just went into the hibernation pod a short while ago, how come...wait?"
As Alaska muttered to herself, she suddenly stood up from the water stains. As if realizing something, she raised her arm and looked at her wrist.
Alaska opened her palm, clenched her fist, then opened it again, and clenched it again.
Alaska raised an eyebrow.
"The power is back? So fast... Could it be..." Alaska reached out, and with a thought, a flash of white light appeared, and a pink electric guitar appeared in her hand. "Wow! It really is! The ship equipment is back!"
Alaska casually fiddled with the electric guitar in her hands, then looked at Xiaobai standing not far away.
"Admiral, did you do this? I feel like I skipped right through the ship equipment fusion period!?" Alaska exclaimed to Shiro with delight. "My ship equipment power is back, and my body feels so strong! I'm back to being the ship girl I used to be!"
"Ah..." Little White smiled as she listened to Alaska's words.
Beside Alaska, amidst the mist surrounding Guam, the blue figure also staggered to its feet.
Guam waved away the water vapor around her, squinted one eye, coughed, and stepped out through the water.
"Cough cough... Admiral? Alaska? What happened..." Guam covered his mouth with his wrist, looking at the two people closest to him, "There was still a lot of nutrient solution in the nutrient tank, how did I just come out of the nutrient tank..."
"Guam, quickly check if the ship's power within you has returned!" Alaska shouted to Guam.
"Ship equipment?" Guam paused, looking at Alaska with some confusion, then raised a hand and clenched it. "Our ship equipment integration period has only just begun, how could the ship equipment... um?"
He stopped halfway through his speech about Guam.
Guam was surprised to discover that its ship's power had indeed returned to its body, just as Alaska had said.
Hey?
Isn't it only after the ship equipment fusion period has passed and the ship equipment has returned to the ship girl's body that the ship girl can regain the power of the ship equipment?
How could this be...?
Guam clenched her fist in surprise, her lips slightly parted, as she checked her condition with disbelief.
"Dr. Yubari clearly said that it would take about a week to get through the ship equipment integration period, and even at the fastest it would take three to five days. Hmm... although ending the integration period early is not a bad thing, but what exactly is our situation..." Guam murmured softly. As she said this, she raised her eyes and stared at Xiaobai with some curiosity.
"..." Xiaobai scratched her cheek, looking at the two ship girls with embarrassment.
Although I'm not entirely sure how Guam and Alaska ended their ship equipment integration period early... I have a feeling... it's probably related to the large amount of mental energy I just infused into their ship equipment...
"Actually..." Xiaobai began, preparing to explain her previous actions to the two ship girls.
However, before Xiaobai could finish speaking, a deafeningly shrill and piercing explosion suddenly came from not far behind Xiaobai.
"Waaaaah! Eeeaaaaah! No! Aaaaaah!"
The scream, tinged with disbelief and sobbing, was utterly shrill and desperate, as if its owner had suffered the most terrible humiliation in the world and encountered the most desperate event. The sound was particularly heartbreaking.
Xiaobai was startled and quickly turned around to look.
In the very center of the hibernation chamber, where a large number of instruments had been placed, Yubari was kneeling in front of an instrument emitting black smoke, clutching his head, transformed into a merciless screaming machine.
"Aaaaaaaahh ...
"I didn't eat in front of the computer this time either!!!"
"computer----"
"Why is it broken again?!"
"No! Ahhhhhh!"
"My data, my data!!!"
"My hard work!! QAQ!!!"
Yubari's voice was filled with heartache. She clutched her head and collapsed to the ground, writhing, crawling, rolling, screaming, crying, and kowtowing. She swung her arms and pounded her chest repeatedly, kicking her slender legs toward the ceiling. For a moment, she was as crazy and erratic as could be.
Guam and Alaska, both soaking wet, exchanged a glance.
"Uh... Admiral? Although we have a lot to talk about right now, how about... we go see Dr. Yubari first?"
"I feel like Dr. Yubari really needs your comfort right now, Admiral..."
The two pale, wet ship girls spoke to Xiaobai.
Listening to Guam and Alaska, Xiaobai suddenly felt a chill run down his spine...
Watching Yubari writhe and crawl in front of the broken equipment, Shiro quickly recalled a similar accident she had encountered when she was modifying Missouri...
The equipment in Yubari last time seemed to break down in the same way...
Ok……
Could it be that……
The machine broke down at the time... which actually had nothing to do with Yubari eating in front of the machine she was working on.
Xiao Bai looked at his palm and suddenly his heart skipped a beat.
Could it be... that I am the culprit?
Xiaobai swallowed hard, suddenly feeling extremely nervous. She remained silent for a long time before dragging her heavy steps toward the center of the field.
Alaska and Guam quickly followed.
Pat-pat... That's the crisp sound of bare feet covered in nutrient solution walking on the ground in Alaska and Guam.
When Shiro came to Yubari's side, Yubari also noticed Shiro's approach.
"Admiral, wow!"
Yubari hugged Shiro's leg, rubbing against it while crying loudly.
"Waaaaah, Admiral!! I'm so miserable, my stats, my stats waaaaahh ...
"Yubari, don't, don't cry..." Shiro awkwardly bent down and quickly hugged Yubari. She looked up at the instrument emitting black smoke.
The instrument that was scrapped was one that was previously used to detect the fusion rate of ship girls.
The instrument screen was still lit, but the image on it was completely frozen, accompanied by shaking and flashing snow, as well as hissing sounds and crackling sparks.
On the screen, the fusion rate values of each ship girl were frozen in the last second before the instrument broke down.
Anshan: 0%
Kiat: 0%
Chicago: 0%
Guam: 127.41%
Alaska: 131.51%
Garibaldi: 0%
……
Goodness, the fusion rate in Guam and Alaska has both exceeded 100%...
Shiro swallowed hard, muttered something to herself, and then quickly bent down to pat Yubari on the back.
"Yubari, Yubari, calm down, listen to me, listen to me."
"Waaaaah, Admiral, I'm doomed... I've let you down again—" Yubari cried uncontrollably, hugging Shiro. "This is the most precious experimental data, and I've ruined it again! Waaaaaahh ...
The more Yubari behaves like this, the more pressure Shiro is under.
Feeling Yubari's embrace, Shiro had no choice but to steel herself and speak to her.
"Yubari, this isn't really your fault... It's all my fault... I'm the one who broke your equipment..."
Xiaobai's words were sincere.
Yubari's crying seemed to be paused abruptly.
Quiet.
The hall suddenly became very quiet.
Xiao Bai suddenly felt a sense of pressure.
Yubari, who was nestled in Shiro's arms, stirred. She slowly pressed down on Shiro's shoulders, stared wide-eyed, and pulled herself out of Shiro's arms.
"Admiral, what did you say?"
Yubari's eyes were red and swollen from crying, but she was staring at Shiro with a blank, inquisitive expression.
"Yes, I broke it..." Xiaobai said awkwardly, forcing a smile. "And it wasn't just this time. During the Missouri renovation last time, it was probably my fault too..."
"It's...it's you?" Yubari's eyes widened even more. "It's all you?"
"Uh... um."
"Admiral, why didn't you say so sooner??" Yu opened her mouth.
"I'm sorry... I'm so sorry... I only just realized it myself..." Xiaobai was covered in sweat. "How about... you scold me a couple of times... or even punch me a couple of times..."
Yubari looked at Shiro, pointed a trembling finger at him, her lips moving nimbly in various shapes, but no sound came out; only her expression became exceptionally complex.
Chapter 3863 Furious
Shiro thought that Yubari would be furious and scold him after learning the truth.
But the outcome was somewhat unexpected for Xiaobai.
After learning the truth, Yubari first pointed at Shiro for a long time with a face that became exceptionally interesting, an expression that was both crying and laughing, angry and helpless, with trembling lips.
Yubari didn't say a word, but Shiro could clearly feel that Yubari's emotions became exceptionally rich and explosive at this moment.
Just as Shiro was shrinking back, waiting for Yubari to punch him a couple of times to vent his anger, Yubari suddenly lowered his hand and raised his neck as if deflated.
"Oh my god—Admiral, what are you doing—"
Yubari raised both hands and gently patted Shiro, then started whimpering towards the ceiling of the hibernation chamber.
Yubari's smash wasn't too hard, so it didn't hurt Shiro.
After smashing the little white dog, Yubari started jumping around in place, swinging her arms as if to vent her frustration.
"Yubari, are you... are you alright...?"
"You stinky admiral, you wicked admiral, how dare you ask!" Yubari was venting her emotions perfectly fine when Shiro asked her question, and she immediately pounced on him with wide eyes, baring her pearly white teeth and biting him hard on the neck. "Take a bite, you damn admiral, I'll bite you to death!"
"oops!"
Shiro was tackled to the ground by Yubari, and immediately felt a slight bite on her neck.
Yubari is not very strong.
Xiao Bai didn't feel any pain, but the bite was in a rather private spot, so Xiao Bai felt extremely itchy and couldn't help but close one eye.
After Yubari rode on Shiro's neck and left a clear teeth mark on Shiro, she slowly got up, wiped her mouth, looked down at Shiro on the ground, and panted heavily.
Yubari stared at Shiro with her eyes closed. She thought for a long time, then let out a helpless sigh.
