Elder brother's garrison

Ticonderoga then covered his ears and looked at his hands in surprise.

"Admiral... your admiral's network communication... is also working within the Black Tower??"

"Hmm, it looks like it's working."

“But people outside are saying that the Black Tower will cut off the Admiral’s network communications…” Ticonderoga frowned in confusion.

"I don't know why my admiral network wasn't cut off... Ah, but there's no time to worry about that now, look, the countdown is over." Xiaobai's voice rang out.

Ticonderoga glanced subconsciously at the blue dialog box beside him, only to see that the morphed character inside had reverted to a simple "0", and then the blue dialog box vanished into thin air.

As the blue dialogue box disappeared, a large amount of deep-sea energy descended from the sky onto the distant sea surface, transforming into a fleet of menacing deep-sea amphibious ships.

The moment Ticonderoga saw the Deepsea Abyss, his gaze turned icy cold.

The five ship girls behind Ticonderoga instantly got into character. Whether they were laughing, chatting, or nervous before, they all seemed to sever their personal emotions the moment the Abyssal Fleet appeared, transforming into cold and resolute ship girl warriors.

"All team members, listen to my command! Battle commence!"

"Yes!"

With a wave of her hand, Ticonderoga summoned the aircraft carrier behind her in a burst of brilliant light, and one after another, carrier-based aircraft burst out of the carrier and instantly circled in the sky.

……

Admiral's Guild.

Inside the president's hall, in the president's office.

Xiaobai stopped writing her notes, picked up her teacup, closed one eye and drank her juice, while the other eye held a faint smile as she stared blankly at the table.

Chao Da, who was standing to the side, watched Xiao Bai's half-closed-eye behavior with curiosity. She turned to the side and waved her hand in front of Xiao Bai's open eyes.

"...Super Yamato? What's going on?" Shiro looked up at Super Yamato.

"Ah... Admiral." Chao Yamato quickly put his hands behind his back. "You can see me..."

“Yes,” Xiaobai said with a smile.

"I saw you stop writing just now, and I thought you were daydreaming..."

"I'm taking a break now." Xiaobai sipped the juice in his teacup. "It just so happens that Ticonderoga and the others have already entered the Black Tower. I'll use the Admiral Network to observe their battle."

"...Can mental energy penetrate into the Black Tower?"

"Mine seems to work."

"The Admiral already knew...?"

"I just found out," Xiaobai said to Chaoda with a smile. "Speaking of which, the question you asked, Chaoda, is exactly the same as Ticonderoga's."

"..." Chao Da scratched his black hair behind his ear, looking somewhat dejected. "How's the battle over there going?"

"Hmm... Ticonderoga is amazing." Xiaobai held her teacup, her gaze fixed ahead, yet as if looking at something that didn't exist in front of her. "Although the battle has only just begun a few minutes ago, they've already wiped out all three waves of monsters on the first floor in one go. Hmm... judging from this, Ticonderoga's strength... seems to be on par with the upper-tier ship girls in Admiral Haoding, Sister Nanxing, and Admiral Lian and Admiral Ling's naval base."

"Congratulations, Admiral?" Chao Dahe asked.

"..." Xiaobai smiled slightly at Chao Yamato, "Speaking of which, Chao Yamato, didn't we leave teleportation coordinates inside the Black Tower before?"

"Yes, I stayed there."

What happened to those coordinates afterward?

"..." After thinking for a while, Chao Yahe gave Xiaobai a complicated expression and continued, "Admiral, I can't say."

"What's hard to say?"

“I tried to find that teleportation anchor point last night, but… I found that the coordinates of that teleportation anchor point in my teleportation corridor had simply disappeared.”

"……disappear?"

"Yes, it just disappeared." Chao Dahe nodded.

"It's fine if it just disappeared... Could it be that the space created by the Black Tower is temporary, and once the challenge in the arena is over, the entire space will be destroyed and rebuilt, so the teleportation coordinates can no longer be used to teleport in?" Xiaobai murmured thoughtfully.

Super Big and the others watched Little White cautiously from the side.

Xiao Bai was lost in thought for a while, and after about ten minutes, Xiao Bai suddenly exclaimed "Ah!"

"Admiral? Did you think of something?" Chao Yamato asked hurriedly.

"No, I didn't think of anything." Xiaobai shook his head.

"So, Admiral, what was the meaning of your 'ah' just now...?"

"Oh, it's Ticonderoga and the others who stormed into the second level." Xiaobai smiled at Chaodahe. "Their battle on the first level is over. They fought beautifully, winning without any casualties and with minimal resource loss."

"...Like this..." the super-large and the soft murmured, "It's a pity I can't see..."

"...So you wanted to see it? You should have said so earlier."

Seeing Chao Yamato's expression, Xiaobai spoke up as if it were the most natural thing in the world. Then she raised her hand, gently pulled up Chao Yamato's wrist, and lightly poked the back of her hand.

A burst of spiritual energy instantly entered the body of the super-powerful Yamato.

Because Xiaobai had infused him with mental energy so many times, Super Dahe had almost no resistance or subconscious rejection of Xiaobai's mental energy. In fact, before Super Dahe could even react, Xiaobai's mental energy had already rapidly climbed up Super Dahe's hand, wide open, to his chest, and then turned upwards, piercing straight into Super Dahe's brain.

Chao Dahe felt a moment of dizziness, followed by a chill in her brain. The next second, she felt her body shrink considerably, the tightness of her clothes against her skin, the sensation of her hair slapping against the back of her head, and the heavy feeling in her chest instantly lightening.

"Buzz buzz----"

“Boom boom boom—”

"Bang bang bang!!"

A loud noise suddenly rang in my ears.

Chao Dahe felt as if she had suddenly arrived on a sea. The next second, the scene in front of her changed. She was no longer in the office she had just been in, and Xiao Bai in front of her had disappeared. In its place was a battlefield on the sea that could be described as "tragic".

Thick smoke filled the air.

The sky was filled with carrier-based aircraft, as dense as dark clouds.

In the distance, there was a sea of ​​fire.

Within the sea of ​​fire, countless deep-sea ships, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws, resembled a horde of rampaging beasts. They were like ghostly shadows, twisting and crawling, intertwining, roaring and screaming amidst the flames, emitting crackling and creaking sounds.

Chapter 3976 One, two, three

Everything is so real.

Whether it was the scorching sea breeze lashing against my face, the strong smell of gunpowder filling my nostrils, the deafening roar of carrier-based aircraft in the sky, the distant howls and shrieks of deep-sea amphibious ships, or even the wet touch of seawater seeping into my ankles... all of this felt so real.

"Admiral, this, this is..."

Looking at the horrific battlefield before him, Chao Dahe, in a daze, instinctively stepped back.

However, as soon as Chaoda took two steps back, she immediately felt a hard desk against the back of her thigh. She reached behind her and quickly touched a pair of warm and soft hands.

Even though Super-Dark couldn't see the hands on the battlefield of the sea in front of it through its "eyes," the extremely realistic and contradictory tactile sensation still left Super-Dark stunned on the spot.

"Super Yamato, don't worry, I'm here." Just then, the small hand holding Super Yamato's hand gently patted the back of Super Yamato's hand, followed by a soft voice mixed with laughter, "You are still in your office right now, and it's very safe around you. The reason you can see the scene in front of you is because I just copied the video data that Ticonderoga sent me to you—um...but...you are not Ticonderoga's admiral after all, so you might be a little confused when you suddenly receive this mental power, but you'll get used to it after a while. Now, just open your heart and think of it as watching a 3D movie with touch."

Super Big quickly recognized that the voice reaching his ears was Xiao Bai's voice.

Despite the constant rumbling and deafening noise all around, Xiaobai's words still echoed clearly in Chao Yahe's ears, undiminished by the surrounding noise.

"So that's how it is..." After hearing the words in her ear, Chao Dahe felt relieved. "So it was the Admiral who did it..."

"Yeah, didn't you just say you wanted to see how Ticonderoga and the others were doing?" Little White's laughter continued. "Now we're all in the audience, so watch carefully!"

"..." Chao Da breathed a sigh of relief and felt at ease.

No wonder when the surrounding environment changed, Super Yamato immediately had the illusion that he had become shorter and his chest felt lighter... It seems that the "first-person perspective" that Super Yamato is using in this memory has become Ticonderoga himself.

Experiencing combat using someone else's body is quite a strange experience.

With her eyes drawn to the enormous and thoughtful design, she looked up at the carrier-based aircraft circling in the sky.

In the mental image transmitted by Xiaobai, Ticonderoga was in the midst of the final battle on the first level of the Black Tower. As the final challenge of this level, the enormous deep-sea monster had been blasted to pieces by the fierce attacks of Ticonderoga and his companions. Its remains were burning fiercely in a sea of ​​fire, splattering large amounts of oil and flames soaring into the sky. The deep-sea minions summoned by the giant deep-sea monster could only put up a futile resistance beside the corpse of their master, making their final struggle.

Ticonderoga waved his finger, and the carrier-based aircraft in the sky spun and landed. The last wave of bombs rained down from the sky, and the violent flames and explosions intertwined, suffocating the remaining deep-sea minions in the raging inferno, leaving no trace.

"This should be the boss of the first floor..." Ticonderoga commanded the carrier-based aircraft to fly back into the sky. She looked around at her companions, "The battle is over. What are our losses?"

"Report, Captain! None of us are injured!" The five ship girls beside Ticonderoga responded immediately.

Ticonderoga's combat power as a ship girl is so outstanding that the tactics consistently chosen by the ship girls in the 7th Patrol Squad—currently the Royal Guard—are centered around this super-powerful aircraft carrier ship girl, Ticonderoga. The best output environment and more output resources are given to Ticonderoga to execute, while the other members do not need to take too much risk in battle. They only need to be responsible for a certain amount of smoke, interference and protection.

After a battle, following Ticonderoga's bombardment, the entire Royal Guard of ship girls completed their challenge of the first floor of the Black Tower almost unscathed.

As Ticonderoga and the others withdrew from combat, a surge of mental energy quickly appeared out of thin air, followed by a blue speech bubble that appeared on Ticonderoga's face.

"These are all incomprehensible words... Are all the blue dialogue boxes encountered by other teams like this..." Ticonderoga looked at the strange symbols in the dialogue box with some difficulty. She pressed her ear with one hand and whispered, "Admiral, are you there?"

“I’m here,” White’s voice echoed in Ticonderoga’s ears.

"That's great." Ticonderoga's face showed some relief. She then asked, "Admiral, we've just dealt with the enemies on the first floor. Now we've seen that mysterious dialogue box again. What does it mean this time?"

"The dialog box says... This level challenge is successful. The total time for this level is 12 minutes and 46 seconds. The battle result is an S-rank victory. The battle rewards have been accumulated into the prize pool. In three minutes, it will be transferred to the second level. Do you want to transfer immediately?" Xiaobai's voice rang out smoothly. "Hmm, it roughly means that the challenge of this level is over, and it's time to enter the next level."

"I see... Does this dialog box mean we should rest for a few minutes before challenging the second level?" Ticonderoga understood.

"Yes, that's roughly the idea. So, do you want to take a break?"

"Reporting, Admiral! I'm in top form, I don't need a break at all!" Ticonderoga immediately clenched his fist, then turned around and shouted to his team, "The second level of the challenge is about to begin, does anyone want to rest?"

"Report to the captain! We're firing at full force!" the team members shouted immediately.

"Then just press the circle at the bottom of the blue dialog box," Xiaobai's voice rang out at the opportune moment.

Ticonderoga raised her hand in response, took a deep breath, and quickly moved towards the circle.

The moment she pressed the circle, Ticonderoga felt her body momentarily lose its balance. The next second, when she regained control, she found herself and her companions once again standing on the familiar water.

She looked up and around, only to see that the deep-sea debris floating on the surface of the sea and the endless burning fire had disappeared.

At this moment, the sea stretches to the horizon, and both the sky and the water are a uniform, dreamy blue.

Although this sea area was almost identical to the previous one, Ticonderoga could still sense that it was no longer the waters they had been in before.

"Are we... on the second floor?"

Ticonderoga was muttering to himself.

Suddenly, a faint chill appeared in the distance.

A blue dialog box flashed before Ticonderoga's eyes.

Ticonderoga looked up and sensed a large amount of deep-sea energy in the distance. Then, in her field of vision, groups of deep-sea ships emerged from the water, baring their teeth and barking at her.

The second level of challenges has begun.

"Perfect timing!" Ticonderoga shouted. She pursed her lips, raised her hand, and made a horizontal slashing motion, sending the carrier-based aircraft hovering in the sky rushing towards the deep-sea amphibious ships like a storm.

Rumbling--

The ship girl members of the 7th Patrol Squad are exceptionally powerful when fully staffed.

Almost every ship girl works together seamlessly. The disadvantage of lacking multiple high-strength ship girls in the lineup is indirectly compensated by the five-protect-one strategy. Ticonderoga's individual strength is brought into full play in this lineup.

Bombs rained down from the sky like jade. The deep-sea ships on the second level of the Black Tower were not much different from those on the first level; they were being brutally beaten by the Seventh Patrol Squad all the way.

Even after the final boss of the second level of the Black Tower fell in the sea of ​​fire, a blue dialog box indicating a successful challenge appeared out of thin air in front of Ticonderoga. Ticonderoga's team remained undeterred, their morale and fighting spirit undiminished.

After consulting with Xiaobai, Ticonderoga raised his hand and pressed the button leading to the third floor.

The familiar feeling of being out of balance returned as Ticonderoga and his group found themselves once again on a clean sea surface, untouched by any previous battles.

"Is this the Black Tower level where the main guns of the colored battleships were said to have been discovered...?" Ticonderoga murmured to herself, looking around at the surroundings, which were no different from before.

The blue dialog box appeared briefly, followed by a deafening roar as the deep-sea amphibious fleet rose from the ground like a black shadow, appearing in the distance.

This time, the number and strength of the Abyssal Fleet were significantly greater than before. There were even some fully armed Abyssal Battleships in the lineup. A large number of Abyssal Fleets stared at Ticonderoga with blood-red eyes, as if they were about to attack and tear them apart at any moment.

—This is already the configuration of the elite deep-sea team in the depths of the ocean in Chapter 8.

It's clear that the challenges on the third level are quite difficult for many admirals who are not well-prepared.

but……

For Ticonderoga, it was still not enough.

"What a pity! If I had come to challenge it sooner... that colorful main cannon would have been the Admiral's!"

As Ticonderoga spoke, her tone gradually rose, and finally she shouted with great momentum, causing the ship's equipment behind her to hum and spin, and another large number of carrier-based aircraft soared into the sky.
