Elder brother's garrison

Page 516

"...Isn't it inappropriate to camp here?" the tall ship girl asked.

Bismarck tilted his head: "Does the rule say that we're not allowed to rest on the sea?"

"You can rest, but what you've brought here..."

“The regulations don’t say you can’t bring sandwiches onto the sea,” Bismarck said.

That's incredible, it wasn't mentioned in the regulations.

But what ship girl would be so carefree as to camp on the sea?

The tall ship girl wanted to say something in rebuttal, but the actions of Bismarck and the other ship girls were, in a sense, impeccable, leaving her speechless.

Bismarck and her entourage camped in a safe area near the coast, so they didn't have to worry about any Abyssal ships coming their way.

The tall ship girl and her teammates began to find themselves in a dilemma.

Their mission was to force Bismarck and her allies to seize all the prey from Cleveland's team. At this moment, Bismarck and her allies remained motionless, which left the tall ship girls somewhat at a loss as to what to do.

"Go ahead." Bismarck pointed to the depths of the sea once again.

The tall ship girl and her ship girl companions thought awkwardly for a while, then gritted their teeth and made their way across the water.

“We’re tired too, let’s rest.” The tall ship girl forced herself to sit down on the sea.

Bismarck ignored the tall ship girls and sat down on the air cushion, calmly enjoying her sandwich, drink, and leisurely time.

The tall ship girls sat on the water with long faces, watching Bismarck and the others.

Time slowly passed. The tall ship girl thought she only needed to wait a little while before Bismarck and the others could begin their next operation after finishing their sandwiches. However, just as Fubuki took the last bite of her sandwich, the tall ship girl felt that the long wait was finally coming to an end.

After it was over, Missouri simply took out several bags of cookies from her ship's storage space and distributed them.

Time passed slowly, and a squad of ship girls happened to pass by behind them.

"Look, sister, they're camping over there." A passing squad of ship girls pointed at Bismarck and the others, a hint of envy in their eyes. "They really know how to enjoy life."

"Sister, look over there." Someone in the ship girl squad pointed to the tall ship girl and the others.

The tall ship girl and a dozen other ship girls sat in place, not eating or doing anything, just staring at Bismarck and the others.

"They look like a bunch of little puppies."

"Hmph!" The tall ship girl turned around angrily and glared coldly at the group of ship girls.

The ship girl squad quickly left.

The tall ship girl felt frustrated. She looked at Bismarck and Cleveland, who hadn't done anything since they arrived at sea. Their ship equipment was full of snacks, which they still hadn't finished eating. The sun was shining brightly, but they still didn't seem to want to work.

The tall ship girl sighed helplessly as she thought about this.

There was no point in waiting any longer. The tall ship girl stood up, glanced helplessly at the depths of the sea, and then led her companions toward the depths of the sea.

The resources consumed by their two fleets of battleships and light carriers were considerable, and they couldn't afford to wait any longer. Rather than waiting here, they should first go to the deep-sea territory and acquire some deep-sea metals to make up for the losses from the expedition.

The tall ship girls left Bismarck's side and headed towards the deep-sea territory.

If you want to find the fourth node, you can still find quite a few deep-sea minions. The tall ship girls quickly found a group of thirty or forty deep-sea minions together. After a one-sided battle, the ship girls quickly ended the battle.

As the smoke of battle gradually dissipated, the sea surface was covered with the wreckage of deep-sea amphibious ships.

"There are quite a few deep-sea amphibious ships gathered together, so it's a small harvest," the tall ship girl said with a touch of self-deprecation.

"Yes, thank you." Then, Bismarck's voice rang in the tall ship girl's ear.

Bismarck's voice appeared so suddenly and eerily that it went completely unnoticed by the tall ship girl's search range. This startled the tall ship girl, who quickly took a few steps back and looked at Bismarck with some fear.

Bismarck was standing alone next to the tall ship girl. She squatted down next to the deep-sea wreckage next to the tall ship girl and reached out to search through the wreckage. She quickly found two shiny pieces of deep-sea metal and then threw them into her ship equipment space without any hesitation.

The tall ship girl stared blankly at Bismarck, and it took her a long time to finally react.

—Wait a minute? Is she trying to steal my things?

"What are you doing!" Thinking of this, the tall ship girl immediately stopped Bismarck, who was groping her spoils, with an unfriendly expression.

Despite the tall ship girl's cold shout, Bismarck did not stop. She continued to rummage around as if no one else was there, sending the deep-sea metal pieces one by one into her ship equipment space.

The tall ship girl was so angry she laughed. Even when she was stealing monsters, she would at least go up and finish them off, just to have a legitimate reason to share the spoils. This ship girl in front of her didn't even finish them off before coming up to share the spoils. Her skin was too thick.

"You think it's a matter of 'everyone gets a share'? Let me tell you, you're breaking the rules! Let go of my hand right now!" The tall ship girl was already seething with anger, and now Bismarck had rushed up and walked right into her line of fire. Enraged, the tall ship girl quickly took two steps forward, grabbed Bismarck's shoulder, and pulled her body hard in front of her.

"Now I understand what you meant by spending a whole day there. You wanted to steal our prey? Don't get your hopes up. Our people are..."

Bismarck didn't listen to what she said. She just watched the tall ship girl grab her shoulder and remained silent for a while.

Then, Bismarck let out a rather stiff shout: "Ah."

Then, under the watchful eyes of the tall ship girl, her entire body went limp and she fell backward, crashing into the water with a splash as everyone watched.

The tall ship girl froze before she could even utter her next sentence.

Then, just as the tall ship girl was stunned, a ship girl with long brown hair suddenly rushed out from somewhere with tears in her eyes, covering her face and running towards Bismarck with a sorrowful expression.

"senior--"

Missouri ran to Bismarck, pushed the tall ship girl aside, and then picked up Bismarck from the ground with tears in her eyes.

"Senior, what's wrong? Senior! Say something! Senior, don't abandon me!"

Missouri cried and shouted at Bismarck, her voice like a cuckoo weeping blood, with a certain grandeur reminiscent of Meng Jiangnu crying at the Great Wall.

The tall ship girl stared blankly at Bismarck and Missouri, her mouth agape.

Missouri cried for a long time, then gradually stopped crying. She hugged Bismarck and stared at the tall ship girl with hatred in her eyes.

“You did it!” Missouri said to the tall ship girl.

"what???"

"You're the ones who injured the senior!"

"What??????"

Missouri pursed her lips tightly and shouted loudly towards the sky, "Help!!!"

Missouri's voice spread out, and before long, pairs of eyes glowing red suddenly lit up around the tall ship girl.

The ship girls who were leisurely enjoying camping far away were now approaching him and his companions with great enthusiasm, looking like hunters who had been waiting for a rabbit for a hundred years.

Chapter 701 Just Do It

Like ghosts, these ship girls ignored the search zone and appeared directly beside the tall ship girl. They stared at her while slowly advancing towards the center, their eyes, which glowed with a faint red light, filled with a rather ominous expression.

"What are you doing?!" The tall ship girl glared and shouted at Missouri, who was holding Bismarck.

"You hurt Missouri's senior, and you still want to ask Missouri what she wants?" Missouri covered her mouth with a handkerchief, putting on a pitiful expression. "Missouri only has this one senior, and he's always taken good care of her..."

"Wait, I didn't touch her at all!"

"But Missouri clearly heard the sound of her senior being injured."

"I... I just tugged at her shoulder! I didn't use any force. She's a ship girl! How could she get hurt just from having her shoulder tugged!" The tall ship girl felt that as the conversation continued, the ship girls that had suddenly appeared around her were getting closer and closer, and her breathing became increasingly rapid.

"But Missouri clearly heard it..."

"She was faking it!" The tall ship girl practically screamed as she said this.

Hearing the tall ship girl's scream, even Missouri couldn't hold back any longer. She took off the handkerchief covering her mouth, then lowered her head and looked at Bismarck.

Bismarck, who had just been pretending to be dead, extended a finger towards Missouri and beckoned.

Missouri quickly bent down and listened for a while to Bismarck's mouth.

"Oh, I see." After a while, Missouri raised her head. She gathered her emotions, and her eyes instantly filled with glistening tears. "Senior, you worked hard for the garrison every day. Your delicate shoulders bore many burdens that were not appropriate for your age, so you accumulated a lot of hidden ailments. Just now, when you touched me, your true energy entered your body, disrupting your internal energy circulation, causing your hidden ailments to erupt and you to suffer a qi deviation. That's why you collapsed. Your life's work is now wasted."

As Missouri spoke, her voice trembling and heartbreaking, she asked the tall ship girl, "So, how are you going to compensate us?"

"I'll pay you back!" The tall ship girl was initially listening attentively, but the more Missouri talked, the more unbelievable it seemed. Only after Missouri finished speaking did the tall ship girl finally realize what was going on.

Missouri didn't seem to be willing to reason with him; she insisted that she had struck first.

"Are you trying to renege on your debt?" Missouri looked pitifully at the tall ship girl.

"Why do you keep bringing up this? Why don't you mention that she stole our spoils?" The tall ship girl gritted her teeth and said to Missouri. "She didn't even fire a single shot, yet she wanted to take away the prey we worked so hard to sink? Her shamelessness is off the charts!"

"Is that really true?" Missouri asked.

"of course!"

Suddenly, Bismarck, who had been pretending to be dead on the ground, stretched out his finger again and beckoned to Missouri.

Missouri leaned down and responded with "uh-huhs," then looked up.

"The senior was just helping you collect some deep-sea debris because there was a lot of it here. It's like a kind citizen picking up oranges that have fallen on the ground after buying them on the street," Missouri said plaintively. "Have you ever seen someone get beaten up just for helping to pick up oranges?"

The tall ship girl's face turned ashen instantly. She breathed rapidly as she stared at Missouri.

Missouri sighed, then took out several pieces of deep-sea metal from her ship's equipment space: "Here, your oranges."

With a flash of black light, Missouri threw several pieces of deep-sea metal directly at the feet of the tall ship girl, splashing water onto her face. Then, with a gurgling sound, the heavy metal sank to the bottom of the sea.

"I've already returned the oranges to you," Missouri said pitifully to the tall ship girl.

"What exactly do you want?" Despite the situation having escalated to this point, the tall ship girl was no longer angry. Her breathing quickly calmed down, and her expression returned to composure.

The tall ship girl felt that if she tried to reason with the other side, she would be a fool.

"We need to get justice," Missouri said to the tall ship girl.

"So you want to fight?" The tall ship girl sneered. "Do you know how serious the punishment is for initiating a battle between ship girls in the Chapter Sea? Not only you, but even your admiral will be expelled from the Chapter Sea by the Admiral Guild!"

"How could we dare?" Missouri said with a forced smile, waving her hand in front of her face.

"You dare not? Fine, then you have three minutes to get out of our sight..."

"It was you who started the fight," Missouri said with a smile to the tall ship girl.

The tall ship girl's expression froze.

Missouri smiled enigmatically and pointed to Bismarck in her arms: "Have you forgotten that you were the one who struck first?"

"You..." The tall ship girl raised an eyebrow, and an angry expression had just appeared on her face when a loud boom, the sound of cannonballs hitting the water surface, suddenly erupted in her ears.

Water splashed high again, and in an instant it seemed as if rain was falling from the sky. The raindrops pattered down on the ship girls present, soaking all of their clothes in an instant.

"ah!"

"ah!"

"what!"

The screams of the ship girls rose and fell, and suddenly clusters of orange-red fireballs lit up the bodies of the aircraft carrier ship girls standing at the back of the formation. The tall ship girls turned around, and in the firelight, several blue shadows flashed across the water. Accompanied by the laughter of the destroyers, in just one exchange, all the air-attack ship girls were destroyed.

"Run!" The tall ship girl's pupils contracted, realizing that these ship girls were not joking; they really wanted to start a fight. The tall ship girl felt bitter inside, but there was no time to think about anything else now. She shouted and then organized the battleships following behind her to quickly dodge the shells that were about to bombard her in the next few seconds.

Water splashed up, and gunfire splattered everywhere.

The aircraft carrier girls, who were directly attacked first and severely damaged, had all their combat power rendered useless. They trembled and clutched their tattered clothes that barely covered their bodies, watching the battle around them with extreme fear.

Fortunately, the ship girls whose ship equipment has just been damaged are protected by heavy damage protection, so their safety doesn't need to be taken care of for a relatively long time. The tall ship girls can also spare some attention to deal with the battle.

Under the command of the tall ship girl, a group of battleship ship girls sometimes gathered and sometimes dispersed. They quickly escaped the encirclement of ship girls, successfully widened the distance, and then launched a counterattack.

"Boom boom boom boom—" Then, the tall ship girl launched a counterattack directly at the place where the original ship girl had been.

One after another, the bright red shells ignited the sea, and the splashing water rippled across the surface like flames.

"Their strength isn't that great either." After escaping the encirclement, the tall ship girl thought to herself.

Just now, because they never expected that the group of ship girls would attack them, they did not notice that their position had become quite unfavorable. At the first moment of the battle, the tall ship girls, with the determination to break out of the encirclement even if three or four ships were damaged, ran towards the outside. However, even after they broke out, none of the six battleship ship girls were injured.

"Watch out, most of those ship girls aren't very combat-effective. Just be careful of those few blue destroyers!" the tall ship girl shouted to the ship girls behind her. "If someone starts a fight, we don't need to retreat! Counterattack!"

"Counterattack!!" The ship girls behind the tall ship girl were also burning with rage. Seeing their carrier comrades sitting like lambs to the slaughter in the very center of the gunfire, they shouted angrily, "Counterattack!! Counterattack!!!"

The artillery fire exploded on the sea like a barrage of bullets. The tall ship girl dodged the enemy's shells while keeping a close eye on the blue destroyers on the sea.

To her surprise, even though they had escaped the encirclement far away and had even fought a fierce battle with the other side for a while, the figures of those blue destroyers that looked like death warrants still did not appear.

—Surprisingly, it's a bit relaxing?

The tall ship girl felt that her group didn't seem to be at a disadvantage; in fact, they seemed to have a slight advantage.

If we disregard those few destroyers, how dare the other side provoke trouble with such limited strength?

The tall ship girl thought for a while, feeling a bit strange. She gradually changed her tactics, from aggressive counterattacks to conservative positioning, and then used some of her energy to observe the ship girls who were exchanging fire with her.

There weren't many ship girls directly attacking them. Leading the group was a blonde ship girl wearing a naval cap. She was aggressively launching attacks with her turret, and she was incredibly strong. The tall ship girl knew she couldn't beat her. That ship girl did put a lot of pressure on the six of them. However, one person is still just one person. With the suppression of the attack frequency of the six, the ship girl wearing the naval cap couldn't cause much trouble.
