Elder brother's garrison

Tears welled up in Xiaobai's eyes.

Actually, Xiaobai was very reluctant to part with Linglan. Linglan had been taking care of Xiaobai ever since she arrived in the modern world, and she was Xiaobai's closest person there. If she could, Xiaobai would even like to take Linglan back to the modern world with her.

But that's not allowed; that was wrong and selfish.

Even though Suzuran is missing, she has her own family and her own attachments. Although she is currently missing, they will meet again sooner or later.

Xiaobai couldn't be so selfish as to just take the lily of the valley back with her.

Chapter 511 Mother

Xiaobai always thought that Linglan knew nothing, but in the end, Xiaobai realized that it was he who knew nothing.

"Sister Linglan..." Xiaobai raised her head and looked at Linglan, her voice trembling.

She seemed to want to say something like, "I'm so reluctant to part with you, I miss you so much," but she didn't dare to say it.

If I tell him, Xiaobai will really have no way to leave.

"Lu Lin, will you promise me something?"

"Ah."

“Take Missouri and North Carolina with you too,” Lily of the Valley said to Little White. “They only love you, and only you. Taking them with you is better for both them and for you.”

"..." Xiaobai was silent for a while, and finally nodded.

"Missouri and North Carolina are waiting for you at the city gate." Linglan's lips curled slightly, and she gently pushed Xiaobai out of her arms. "Tell Missouri, I, Linglan, am not admitting defeat, absolutely not admitting defeat!"

After saying all that, Linglan smiled brightly at Xiaobai and waved, "Goodbye, Lu Lin."

"Sister Lily of the Valley..."

"Hurry up and go." Linglan interrupted Xiaobai, and finally forced a trembling smile at Linglan. "If you don't leave now, I won't let you go."

"...Okay, goodbye, Sister Linglan." Xiaobai nodded to Linglan, then, with tears in her eyes, turned her back and ran to the other side of the open space. She climbed over the wall and quickly disappeared into the night.

Linglan watched quietly as Xiaobai's figure disappeared into the night.

Tears streamed down Linglan's face. She lowered her head, looking at the ground with an expression that was hard to tell whether she was crying or laughing.

"In fact, the performance of the construction device is far inferior to that of the past."

"It often fails, the ship girls that are built aren't very strong, and the construction time is too long..."

"Actually, ship girls can get hurt too."

"I also want to manufacture weapons for the ship girls to use."

"I also want to create a repair device for the ship girls to use..."

"There are so many more things I want to do..."

"I don't want you to leave..."

As Linglan murmured to herself, she slowly knelt down on the ground.

As tears soaked the earth, the sound of weeping slowly emanated from the lily of the valley.

The sound gradually grew louder, slowly becoming heart-wrenching, like shattered glass, piercing the heart with pain.

Behind her, in a corner obscured by the moonlight, Sukhbaatar was huddled in a corner, looking at Lily of the Valley with deep emotion, before finally shaking his head and saying nothing more.

Little White climbed over the city wall and arrived outside the human city.

Missouri, along with North Carolina in her child form, was waiting outside, just as Suzuran had said, for Shiro.

"Lu Lin!" Missouri spotted Xiao Bai's figure in the darkness at first glance. She called out to Xiao Bai and stretched out her arm to greet her.

Little White landed on the ground, looked at Missouri and North Carolina, and then stretched out his arm to wipe away his tears.

“Miss Lily of the Valley asked us to come here…” Missouri walked up to Xiaobai, looked at Xiaobai with a complicated expression, and then explained to Xiaobai.

“Yes. I know.” Little White nodded, then looked at Missouri and North Carolina one last time. “Would you like to come with me?”

“…Yes, Missouri is willing.” Missouri nodded.

North Carolina, who was standing next to her, slowly walked over to Xiaobai and took her hand with a smile.

This is the response from these two ship girls.

Xiao Bai pursed her lips and then closed her eyes.

The scent of fresh grass gradually rose, and Xiaobai returned to its spiritual world.

Before her, the will of the deep sea stood quietly beside her.

"Can we take Missouri and North Carolina with us?" Little White asked the Will of the Deep Sea.

“Okay.” The Will of the Deep Sea nodded, then quietly raised its head and looked up at the sky.

"Will the energy required double when we go from two people to four?" Xiaobai asked.

“It’s alright.” The Will of the Deep Sea nodded again. “We’re just moving downstream along the timeline, which saves a lot of energy compared to going against the current.”

"Oh, that's good." Xiaobai felt relieved after hearing the explanation from the Deep Sea Will. "Then I'll leave it to you."

"Leave it to me." The Will of the Deep Sea nodded.

During the time Xiaobai was recovering from her injuries, the Will of the Deep Sea contacted her and told her that she knew how to go home.

The specifics of the method were not explicitly stated; it was only that Xiaobai should first return to the sea area where he had previously trained Missouri, and then return control of her body to her once again.

Xiao Bai, who unconditionally trusted the Deep Sea Will, readily agreed. After all, going home was better than anything else; it was just lending his body to the Deep Sea Will again, no big deal.

Xiao Bai exited the mental world and returned to reality.

Knowing the direction, the three ship girls ran at full speed and arrived at their destination in one night.

"Lu Lin, is this your home?" Missouri and North Carolina seemed unaware that Xiao Bai came from the future. They thought Xiao Bai's home was just far away. Now that they saw Xiao Bai bringing them back to the sea and beach they used to live on, they couldn't help but feel curious.

"Ah, I'll explain later, please wait a moment." Xiaobai returned to the beach, and as she stepped on the sand, she could feel strong fluctuations coming from her mental world.

It seems the deep-sea will within the spiritual world can't wait any longer.

“Okay.” Missouri and North Carolina certainly didn’t mind Xiaobai’s behavior. They nodded and stood obediently to the side.

Xiaobai closed her eyes and slowly relinquished control of her body and the ship's equipment.

Then, the Deep Sea Will slowly rose from the water and gently took over Xiaobai's body and ship equipment.

Soon, the will of the deep sea took control of Xiaobai's body.

Xiao Bai opened its eyes.

A deep, dark light flashed in his golden eyes like a shooting star, and Xiaobai's overall aura turned extremely cold at that moment.

Missouri, who had been staring at Xiaobai, felt a jolt in her heart, and then curiously looked Xiaobai's body up and down.

"Wait for me." "Little White" gently tossed these words to Missouri as she opened her eyes again, and then slowly walked towards the sea.

"Lu Lin?" Missouri subconsciously followed Xiaobai.

The little white creature controlled by the will of the deep sea stopped, turned around, and shook its head at Missouri: "Wait for me."

She repeated the sentence, and finally, seeing Missouri's worried expression, she sighed and said, "What happens next is not convenient for you to see."

Hearing this, Missouri finally relaxed, nodded, and went back to her seat.

After watching Missouri and North Carolina obediently stay on the beach, the little white creature controlled by the Deep Sea Will slowly walked towards the sea full of black water.

She stepped onto the water, and in an instant, the water formed a platform, carrying her swiftly towards the sea.

In the spiritual world, Xiao Bai, who had lost control of his body, sat on the grass, looking at the Deep Sea Will standing quietly in front of him, and at the screen in front of the Deep Sea Will, which resembled a screen controlling a robot, displaying the mirror-like scene that Xiao Bai's body saw. Suddenly, he became a little curious.

"Deep Sea Will, why are we at the center of the ocean?"

"The ocean possesses incredibly abundant resources," the Deep Sea Will explained while controlling Little White's body. "Much more than the land. The resources and energy here are enough for us to return."

"Oh..." Xiaobai paused for a moment, then nodded in sudden realization, "I see."

"..." The eyes of the Deep Sea Will glanced at Little White gently, and then slowly closed.

"Then we'll be able to go home soon," Xiaobai said.

"Yes, soon," the Deep Sea Will said indifferently.

The body of Xiaobai, controlled by the will of the deep sea, arrived at a place far, far away from the beach, and she slowly landed on the sea surface.

With a whoosh, the moment Xiaobai's body landed on the sea surface, the Deep Sea Will in its child form emerged from the seabed and happily hugged Xiaobai's waist.

"Mommy!" The Will of the Deep Sea rubbed against Little White's body, its face full of happiness.

In the spiritual world, Little White, sitting behind the Deep Sea Will, looked at the scene displayed by the Deep Sea Will and exclaimed happily, "Ah, Deep Sea Will, look, it's the Deep Sea Will of a broken era!"

"Saw."

"You used to be so cute." Xiaobai looked at the Deep Sea Lolita Will smiling at her on the screen and laughed too. "Ah, of course I'm not saying you're not cute now, you're still very pretty now."

"...Thank you." The will of the deep sea replied quietly, staring blankly at the will of the deep sea loli on the screen.

As Xiaobai said, the ancient deep-sea will and the modern deep-sea will are one and the same.

Looking at her own fragmented existence, the Deep Sea Will was overwhelmed with thoughts, and her eyes became misty.

"Deep Sea Will?" Just then, Xiaobai's voice interrupted the Deep Sea Will.

As Xiaobai spoke, the eyes of the Deep Sea Will quickly cleared.

In the real world, the deep-sea little girl's will, which had been holding Xiaobai's body, also strangely raised its head, looking at Xiaobai with curiosity, wondering why Xiaobai hadn't reacted.

—A normal mother would probably give her a warm hug right now.

Just as the will of the deep-sea little girl was filled with doubt, Xiaobai's body finally moved. She bent down and slowly picked up the will of the deep-sea little girl.

"Mommy!" The Deep Sea Baby Girl happily stretched out her arms, allowing Little White to hold her arms and lift her up.

A hint of reluctance flashed in Xiaobai's eyes, but then her resolve hardened.

The next second, something happened that shocked both the will and the little white figure in the deep-sea girl's mind.

Under the control of the Deep Sea Will, Xiao Bai's body emitted intense lightning, and in an instant, it rushed into the body of the Deep Sea Lolita Will.

Then, amidst the painful howls of the Deep Sea Lolita's Will, a powerful black storm swept out from within her chest cavity in an instant.

In an instant, the body that had torn apart the will of the deep-sea girl was crushed into a mass of black energy, which swept into the storm.

In the realm of consciousness, Xiaobai stood up from the ground in terror, looking at the Deep Sea Will standing before her with utter incomprehension.

"This is the energy of the ocean we've been searching for." The will of the deep sea, which was controlling Xiaobai's body, turned its head to look at Xiaobai, a desolate smile appearing on its fair face. "Mom."

Chapter 512 Important things need to be repeated many times.

The Deep Sea Will is an existence of unknown origin but immense power. It possesses energy far exceeding that of ordinary Deep Sea Aquatic Ships. Whether it is the Deep Sea Child's Will in front of us or an ordinary Deep Sea Will, the energy contained within its body is comparable to the energy contained in the explosion of ten, twenty, or even a hundred human cities.

So what the Deep Sea Will is doing now is exactly what Xiao Bai did to the Deep Sea Will in the modern era. That is, to forcefully inject the energy from Xiao Bai's ship equipment into the body of the Deep Sea Lolita Will, and with a slight movement, to disrupt the balance of energy in her body, causing it to go berserk and turn into a storm.

This storm, naturally, under certain manipulation and guidance, became a tool for time travel.

The price was just far too cruel.

Xiaobai hurriedly lifted her feet and quickly walked behind the Deep Sea Will. She reached out and grabbed the Deep Sea Will's shoulder. Looking at the screen that the Deep Sea Will had shown her, her voice trembled slightly: "Deep Sea Will! Stop it!"

"It's too late." The Will of the Deep Sea turned its head and stared silently at the screen, at the storms that were tearing the body of the Deep Sea Girl Will to shreds, and finally said coldly, "After disrupting all the energy in her body, the rampaging energy tore her to pieces in the first instant."

The words of the Deep Sea Will pierced Xiao Bai's heart like a needle, causing him excruciating pain as if his heart were being torn apart.

"Then don't hurt her! She's yourself! So what if she doesn't have energy? We can search slowly. If it really doesn't work, I don't have to go back. I... I'm very long-lived, I can live on!" Little White reached out and grabbed the Deep Sea Will's arm, pleading with her, "You have a way, right? Please save her..."

Before Xiaobai could finish speaking, the Will of the Deep Sea swung its hand forcefully, shoving Xiaobai onto the grass to the side.

Xiao Bai lost his footing and was pushed by the Will of the Deep Sea, causing him to fall flat on his backside.

"The past cannot be changed!" the Deep Sea Will shouted at Little White, who hadn't even settled in yet, two clear tears streaming down her face. "Why do I hate you so much? Because she is me! Because you treated me like this back then!"

Xiao Bai had always perceived Deep Sea Will as calm and indifferent. But when her emotions suddenly exploded like a bomb, Xiao Bai couldn't help but hold her breath and dared not speak for a moment.

After shouting those words, the Will of the Deep Sea took several rapid breaths before the violent heaving in its chest gradually subsided.

She looked at Xiaobai with a complicated expression, and finally lowered her head to look at her hands.

“…It’s black.” The Will of the Deep Sea murmured, raising its head to look at Little White, “…It’s all black all around, I can’t feel any pain in my body, I can’t smell anything, I can’t hear anything, I can’t see anything, I can’t feel any warmth or coldness…I’d rather be in pain! I don’t understand, I don’t understand, I don’t understand!”

The Deep Sea Will clutched her head, as if recalling this memory was a great torment for her: "Did I do something wrong? Am I a bad child? I always listened to you. I didn't fight with anyone. I stayed obediently in the sea waiting for you. I would take you wherever you went. If anyone bullied you, I would fight back for you. I just wanted to see you, receive your praise, and stay by your side. I did whatever you said. I am your daughter, I am your tool. If you want me to die, you only need to say one word. You only need to say one word!"

As Deep Sea Will spoke, tears streamed down her face. She looked at Little White and cried out, "Why! Why aren't you saying a word! Why?!"

"I hate you so much! I hate you so much! I want to kill you! I must kill you! I will find you, I will kill you by any means necessary, I will make you regret it, I will make you kneel before me! I will make your body feel my pain, I..." The Deep Sea Will couldn't finish her sentence. She knelt on the grass, pressed her forehead to the earth, and sobbed intermittently, "I just want to hear you say sorry to me..."
