Elder brother's garrison

"Hmm. Then why is the admiral leaving?"

“…Uh…” Luo Yin was stumped by Guang Rong’s question. He hesitated for a long time, winking and making faces. “I know you won’t leave, but I’m just scared…”

“…Ah, I see.” Glory smiled and turned his gaze back to the road ahead.

On the bustling street, Luo Yin's fleet of ship girls was quiet.

"..." Luo Yin.

"Admiral, Glorious isn't leaving." Glorious suddenly said.

"……Um."

"Ahem, it seems the Admiral is quite an insecure person," Glorious chuckled.

"..." Luo Yin didn't reply, but just smiled apologetically.

"Always being so anxious and insecure isn't good for your mental health. Admiral, you might need something to solidify your sense of security," Glorious said.

"Huh? What?" Luo Yin was stunned.

Glorious glanced at Luo Yin sideways, said nothing, but stretched out a hand, looking at his snow-white fingers with a meaningful gaze, and murmured softly, "Glorious thinks... my hands... look really plain. If only I had some things to decorate them... wouldn't that be nice?"

Behind the group, Luo Yin's other ship girls all let out knowing laughs.

Luo Yin stared blankly at Guangrong.

"Glory, could it be that you..."

Just then, a commotion arose from the road ahead. As the noise intensified, the already congested street began to jam up.

Luo Yin and the ship girls stopped and subconsciously looked ahead.

At the exit of what was originally Chapter Six, several admirals, accompanied by several ship girls, stood at the entrance, explaining the situation to the staff member by the door with great difficulty.

The staff member by the door, no matter what the admiral and the ship girl said, always had a sour face, clutching a notebook, looking like he would never agree.

Luo Yin frowned.

Because of the distance, Luo Yin could not hear the conversation from the gate clearly.

"Glory, are they arguing over there?"

"Reporting to the Admiral, those admirals are applying to leave, but the staff won't approve it."

"Huh???" Luo Yin looked at Guang Rong in surprise, then his heart skipped a beat. He quickly lifted his skirt and hurried towards the door.

As they drew closer to the exit of Chapter Six, Luo Yin finally heard the conversation between the admiral and the staff.

The admiral stood before the staff, his face flushed red, gesturing wildly with his hands outstretched, his expression one of deep anxiety.

"...I've said it so many times, I have something urgent to do and I need to leave now, can't you just let me go?"

"Admiral, starting yesterday, Chapter Six will be undergoing a sea inspection for about a week. In order to avoid interfering with the work of the inspection personnel, we do not recommend that you leave Chapter Six now."

"Who are you trying to fool? As the admiral, don't I know that sea area inspections don't require a city lockdown? When has this place ever been locked down? What happened? Did they raid your base in the deep sea?"

"No comment."

"Just let me out, okay? There's been some deep-sea activity at my naval base lately, I need to go back and check it out. If the deep sea attacks the land, will you take responsibility?"

"Please report your naval base number, and we will dispatch a team of experienced ship girls to help you protect your naval base free of charge."

"...Holy crap, you..."

"Admiral, this is an ultimatum. I'll repeat it one last time: this is the order from above. No one is allowed to leave Chapter Six within a week."

"you!"

At the entrance of Chapter 1012, the admiral glared angrily at the staff, and the atmosphere immediately became tense.

The crowd slowly surged forward, and Luo Yin and the ship girls were pushed back by the continuous flow of people.

After retreating to the edge of the crowd, Luo Yin stared blankly at the end of the road, which was now packed with people.

"...Chapter Six...A week-long lockdown?? Only entry allowed, no exit?"

Luo Yin murmured, his expression somewhat unpleasant.

"Admiral..." Glorious followed behind Luo Yin, looking at him with some helplessness. "Admiral, there's nothing we can do about this situation. What should we do next?"

“…I…I…” Luo Yin stomped her foot in grievance.

She acted like a little girl throwing a tantrum.

"The whole world is targeting me, Luo... Luo Yingying!" Luo Yin stamped her feet, gritted her teeth, and murmured in a high-pitched voice, "A week, right... You forced me to do this!"

"Glory!" Luo Yin called out to Glory in a high-pitched voice.

"Glory is here."

"Let's go! To the general store!"

Luo Yin stormed into the nearest grocery store with his ship girls, buying a large amount of rice, snacks, fruits, and vegetables. After buying them, Luo Yin led his ship girls back to the courtyard they had rented, slamming the door shut as soon as they entered.

Luo Yin stated.

You guys can have fun this week, but I'm not stepping out of this door even if you kill me.

After returning to the courtyard, the ship girls moved into their rooms and began to enjoy their vacation.

The ship girls of Luo Yin initially expressed helplessness regarding the admiral's actions, but eventually accepted them.

Being a ship girl these days is tough; you have to go on expeditions and grind maps all the time. Now, Luo Yin has given the ship girls and herself a week-long retreat, and the ship girls are happy to enjoy it.

Half of the quiet afternoon has passed.

While tidying up his appearance in the room, Glorious suddenly felt as if someone was knocking on his door.

Glory pushed open the door, and Luo Yin, looking embarrassed, was standing there.

"Admiral? Is something the matter?"

"Uh... speaking of which, Glory, about that thing you mentioned on the street before..." Luo Yin scratched his head and smiled at Glory somewhat embarrassedly.

Glory stared blankly at Luo Yin with his mouth agape: "Ah... um."

"Um, cough cough, this is for you..." Luo Yin cleared his throat, took out a small red box from his clothes, and handed it to Guang Rong.

"Admiral...Admiral, you..." Glorious covered his mouth, "Could this be...?"

"Yes, that's right!"

"Ah!" Gloriously accepted the gift box.

Oh my god.

This blockhead admiral... has he finally come to his senses? Has he finally agreed to give me a wedding ring?

Looking into Luo Yin's expectant eyes, Guang Rong suddenly felt a surge of emotion.

Glory opened the gift box.

Inside the gift box.

Two finely carved, clearly textured red walnuts were neatly arranged.

"..." Glory, "Admiral... this... is?"

"It's a collectible walnut!"

"...walnut?"

“Glory, didn’t you say your hands were empty? Look, this is a collectible walnut, the kind you can rub in your palm and play with. My grandfather had a pair too. Rubbing these things occasionally is good for your health, improves blood circulation, and is a good thing…”

"boom!!!"

He was furious and his face was flushed. He slammed the door shut with a hard slap.

The dust in the air shimmered in the sunlight.

After closing the door.

Gloriously stamping his feet.

Glory stamped his foot again.

Glory stomped his feet repeatedly.

Glory used the trampling of war.

Glory, panting, pulled out two walnuts, glaring at them through gritted teeth: "Damn it—"

call! ! !

huh-huh-

call……

Glory silently looked at the walnut in his palm and gently rubbed it back and forth.

The hard texture of the walnuts slid through my hand, making a rubbing sound as they rubbed against each other.

It has a substantial feel to it.

crunch.

crunch.

Chapter 1013 Picking Up

Mu Yu had told Xiao Bai that it would be about a week before the news of the Deep Sea Dean-level Deep Sea Cluster appearing in the sea area was released from Chapter Six.

At first, Xiaobai thought that the news would not come out for a week because the admirals in Chapter 6, considering their own interests, had colluded with others to temporarily conceal the news, wanting to be the first to reap the benefits.

But it wasn't until Xiaobai arrived at Chapter Six and entered the city that he saw the admirals' faces, which showed no sign of tension, that he understood.

So what Mu Yu meant when she said the news would take a week to spread from Chapter Six was that the news had been kept under wraps by organizations above the Admiral's Guild, which meant that the Admirals of Chapter Six had been kept in the dark and knew nothing about the changes in the sea.

It seems that Mu Yu really did take a considerable risk to reveal this hot news to me, just as he said.

After leaving the Admiral's Guild, Xiaobai looked at the passersby around him and thought to himself.

The city's architecture in Chapter 1014 appears much more prosperous than in the previous chapters.

There are many more admirals and ship girls leisurely strolling around the streets.

Xiao Bai's gaze swept over the medals on the chests of the admirals from afar.

Xiaobai had seen most of the medals worn by these admirals in the collection room of the newbie naval base. Lexington had also explained the origins of these medals to Xiaobai in detail.

These medals are graduation medals from some of the more famous Deepsea events over the past decade or so. They are awarded only to the top-ranking admirals.

Judging from this, the person who is idly strolling around the streets is probably an admiral who has already achieved great success and doesn't need to worry about his resources or the strength of his naval base.

Just thinking about it.

On the road ahead of Xiaobai, some admirals who were originally walking with their heads held high and full of vigor saw Xiaobai walking towards them.

The admirals all trembled, then quickly lowered their heads, pulling their ship girls along ashamedly to squeeze to the side of the road, afraid of being looked at by Xiaobai again.

"……"noob.

"You've really made it big, Shiro!" A voice of admiration came from beside him.

Shiro turned his head and saw that Yamato Aqua was chewing on a sausage and giving him a thumbs up, looking very proud of Shiro.

In the short time it took for Deep Sea Yamato to leave the Admiral's Guild, he suddenly found himself holding a variety of street snacks, including grilled sausages, marshmallows, small cakes, and hand-pulled pancakes.

"Yamato-neechan, don't they sell this at the naval base too?" Shiro smiled awkwardly and then skipped over the topic.

"Life is tough... I haven't had any snacks since Musashi came to the naval base... Although I'm not really into snacks, it's been months since I've seen people around me munching on them, so I'm starting to crave them."

Yamato shrugged, indicating his helplessness.

"This...is like this..."

Xiaobai suddenly felt that perhaps it was time for her to find a reason to give Yamato a raise...

Otherwise, she might soon be unable to support Deep Sea Musashi.

"Um... if you like snacks, you can buy the ingredients and make them yourself."

At that moment, Akagi, who was walking on the other side, heard Shiro and Yamato's conversation, turned around and smiled at Yamato.

"Buy raw materials to make it? What do you mean?"

"There's no middleman taking a cut; the cost of making snacks yourself is much lower."
