Elder brother's garrison

“I’m really not hurt,” Xiaobai said to York with a smile.

"Ahem, ahem." York blushed slightly and coughed a few times. "Do I look like such a talkative person?"

You know what, it really does look a bit like it.

York reached out and scratched his face, trying to make himself look as cool and serious as possible to salvage his persona.

“I’d like to ask something else,” York said.

When ship girls are going to war, it's best to talk as little as possible while in preparation for battle, since such behavior could affect the accuracy and precision of enemy detection and slow down on-the-spot reactions.

However, rules are always flexible. After looking at Glorious and the other ship girls around her, who didn't seem to have any displeasure, Xiaobai nodded and said, "Okay."

"You're wearing bra pads, aren't you?"

(Three) Order Si Guiqi San Si "Plop!"

The ship girl uses her thoughts to stand on the water's surface. Suddenly hit by a critical strike, Xiaobai's mind went blank, and she lost her footing, almost stepping directly into the seawater.

Fortunately, York reached out and quickly grabbed Little White's shoulders, pulling her legs out of the seawater.

Little White looked at York in a panic: "I...I...I..."

To be honest, this was the first time York had ever seen Little White so flustered, even more so than when the Deepsea Abyss ships had charged at him.

"This kid is amazing," York thought to himself.

"Don't panic, it's not something shameful." York supported Xiaobai, reached out and placed his hand directly on Xiaobai's left breast. Under Xiaobai's gaze, he pinched her lifeless "breasts" with a natural expression, like an artist appraising a national treasure. "I felt something was off about the feel before, hmm, it's definitely padded."

"I...I..." Xiaobai was truly bewildered.

"Sigh." York slowly released his grip on Xiaobai, and seeing that she could still stand on the sea even without his support, he slowly said, "I see your chest isn't small either, why are you padding it?"

"..."

"Without this bra pad, you'd be about the same size, a normal size, but with this pad, you're actually a bit more noticeable."

"..."

"Sigh." York shook his head.

Little White covered his face next to York.

Beside York, the other ship girls of Luo Yin naturally listened to the lively conversation between Xiaobai and York. Although they did not turn their gazes to the side, they all pricked up their ears and spied in this direction, while a faint smile appeared on their lips.

Xiaobai's feelings are complicated.

York said that Xiaobai's original size was normal and she already looked good, so there was no need to wear a breast pad.

However, the naive York did not know that what Xiaobai was wearing was not a breast pad.

It's two layers!

It was only at this moment that Xiaobai finally realized the deeper meaning behind Yixian's actions.

The main function of double-layered breast pads is not to double the size and pleasure.

The real meaning of it is that after revealing that you have breast pads, the other person will naturally assume that you only have one layer of breast pads and take the layer underneath as your actual breast size.

—How tragic. How miserable.

However, the saddest thing was that when York said that she was a normal size even without breast pads, Xiaobai inexplicably felt a sense of joy.

It's too awful.

Little White clutched his chest, tears of humiliation welling in his eyes, revealing an expression that York found incomprehensible.

York withdrew his hand, glanced at his palm a few times, shrugged, and said nothing.

While helping Xiaobai up and discussing breast pads with her, and seeing Xiaobai in a state of extreme distress, York secretly used his hand to examine some hard-to-see areas under Xiaobai's sailor uniform.

Yes, you're definitely not injured.

"Speaking of which, why were you covering your head just now?" York asked Little White.

"Are you covering your head?" Xiaobai hadn't quite recovered from York's words. She reached out and touched her head. "I was just a little dizzy for a moment."

"You fainted for a moment?" York looked at Xiaobai strangely.

"Hmm." Xiaobai nodded, thought for a moment, "But it was just for a moment, I'm fine now."

"Oh." York smacked his lips a few times and looked at Glory at the front of the line.

"Speaking of which, when will we be able to reach the center of the sea?" York asked his companions.

"They should be here soon," the ship girl next to York said, turning to him. "They arrived around this time yesterday."

York gave an "oh" and looked around.

The surrounding sea scenery remained largely unchanged, shrouded in a persistent black fog. It's no wonder York asked such a question; after all, with no markers on the sea, seeing the same view repeatedly would naturally lead to confusion about how far one had traveled.

"Huh? Are we going to the center of the ocean?" Just then, Little White next to York asked in confusion.

"Yeah, don't worry. Even though we're from the third chapter, we're just as strong as many of the fourth chapter ship girls," York said to Xiaobai.

During their conversation, York had become a little more familiar with Xiaobai. She thought Xiaobai was worried that she and Glorious wouldn't be able to defeat the Deepsea Abyssal Ships in the center, so she said to Xiaobai, "Just hide well and watch us take on a group of them one by one from a distance."

After listening to York's words, Xiaobai frowned slightly, as if he had something to say but didn't know whether he should or not.

"Do you have something to say?" York asked curiously.

Xiaobai nodded.

"If we're going to the center of the sea, why are we going in circles?"

"circle?"

"Sister Glory has been leading us around the bends," Xiaobai said.

Xiaobai's words startled all the ship girls, including York, and even Glorious, who was leading the way at the front, paused.

The ship girls looked at Xiaobai: "We didn't turn, we were just walking in a straight line!"

"...If we go in a straight line, we should be getting close to the center of the node by now, right?" Xiaobai asked.

The ship girls nodded.

Xiao Bai looked around at the sea.

The ship girls subconsciously followed Xiaobai and looked around at the surrounding sea.

Upon seeing this, the ship girls felt a chill run down their spines, and cold sweat began to seep from their foreheads.

Tick.

Tick.

That's the sound of water droplets from the little white dress falling onto the water's surface.

The sound was clear and crisp.

The sound of dripping water is ordinary, but to the ship girls, it sounds as frightening as the ringing of a bell.

Because in the bustling and intense central sea area of ​​the first node, the sounds of battle would completely drown out these subtle noises, and they shouldn't have been able to hear such a clear dripping sound.

The ship girls looked around and saw nothing but black seawater and black mist.

Apart from them.

Here,

No other ship girl has this.

More than two weeks have passed since the Admirals Guild informed the Admirals of the deep-sea cluster phenomenon in Chapter 766. During these two weeks, the Admirals of Chapter 2 went through a series of reactions, from initial shock and panic upon hearing the news, to confusion and indifference, until finally becoming fervent after discovering the true nature of the first node as a leveling paradise. The sea area of ​​the first node gradually transformed from deserted to bustling.

Even now, whenever the first node is open, the sea area is constantly filled with the sounds of ship girls fighting, and as the observation point is explored further, the sound of artillery fire becomes louder and more frequent.

However, just as Xiaobai gestured for everyone to look around, the ship girls finally noticed the strangeness of their surroundings.

It's so quiet.

It was eerily quiet.

The ship girls looked around.

The calm sea stretched as far as the eye could see, and the black fog, like silent smoke, reduced visibility on the water to a minimum.

The ship girls stubbornly strained their eyes to look beyond the black mist, but even with their limited field of vision, they couldn't find a single ship girl.

There wasn't even a breeze on the inky black sea, yet the mist formed from the resentment of the deep sea slowly undulated in the air.

A sense of loneliness, as if she were the only one within a hundred miles, and an ominous feeling, as if she were being targeted by some hunter, instantly surged into the ship girl's heart.

They felt like little rabbits who had run into a trap. In the darkness around them, a terrifying giant wolf was crouching in a corner, scrutinizing them with greedy eyes while opening its huge mouth full of sharp teeth and revealing a gleeful smile.

Clear, sticky saliva dripped down its yellowed fangs and swirled in its bright red mouth.

"Tick."

This is the sound of water droplets from the hem of the little white dress falling onto the water's surface once again.

Upon hearing this voice, the ship girls felt a chill run down their spines, and cold sweat instantly poured down their backs. They all swallowed hard, exchanged glances, and saw worry in each other's eyes.

"Glory, Glory-neechan..." a ship girl tentatively asked Glory, who was walking at the front, "Have we taken the wrong path?"

“I…” Glorious’s brows furrowed.

She wanted to say that she hadn't led the wrong way, but looking at the scenery of the sea around her, she really couldn't bring herself to say it.

This wasn't Glorious's first time here; in her memory, she had indeed followed yesterday's route. If it weren't for Shiro's reminder, she wouldn't have known when her surroundings had changed like this.

After all, the first node has been explored by ship girls, so how come there is such a quiet sea area?

too weird.

too weird.

Both myself and this sea area are too strange.

"When you were moving forward, when did the surroundings become so quiet in your memory?" Glory asked.

"...It seems like I was surrounded by ship girls just now."

"It was quiet for a while? But it never seemed quiet at all..."

"I felt like it suddenly became quiet."

After thinking for a while, the ship girls all expressed their thoughts.

This is also where Glory has a question.

Although everyone's attention was drawn to the breast pads of the rookie ship girl next to them, and they were somewhat distracted, they were still ship girls who had been trained on the battlefield. Putting aside the minor changes on the sea, they couldn't possibly fail to notice the difference between extreme liveliness and extreme tranquility.

As Glory was thinking this, his gaze inadvertently fell on Little White standing next to York.

Compared to the ship girls who were somewhat frightened and confused by the unknown situation that suddenly happened around them, Shiro's expression was quite calm.

She stood beside York, watching the ship girls express their opinions.

She stood there quietly, with an unusual calmness, observing the emotions of the ship girls like an observer, silently pondering something.

She was the first to notice the anomaly; if it weren't for her, I would still be leading my companions deeper into this gloomy sea.

Although he didn't know what lay in the depths of this sea, the thought of leading his companions into the depths of a sea they had never seen before if Xiaobai hadn't warned him sent chills down his spine.

The events she encountered in the first chapter flashed through her mind like a revolving lantern.

Explosions, shattering sounds, desperate cries, painful groans...

"Slap!!" Glorious quickly closed her eyes and slapped herself hard twice on the cheeks. The loud sound attracted the attention of all the ship girls.

“Let’s go back the way we came, back to where we were before,” Glory said.

The ship girls nodded in agreement.

To be honest, this gloomy place really made the ship girls feel uncomfortable, and leaving was the best option.

After the ship girls reorganized their formation, they returned along the same route under Glorious's leadership.

"Keep up close." After the ship girls set off, York, who was next to Xiaobai, gently patted Xiaobai, who was still thinking about something, and reminded her.

Xiaobai could see a faint worry and confusion lingering on York's brow, indicating that she didn't have much confidence in her current situation.

—But, let's go back...

Xiaobai looked at the ship girls around her.

Going back might not be a simple matter. Xiao Bai thought to herself.
