Da-da, a series of crisp knocks echoed through the empty room, which seemed to disturb the girl who was immersed in many copywriting files. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The girl glanced at the time displayed on the light screen, knowing that this time period was not the time for the Admiral to return to the shift after training, and she knew that outside the door was a companion who had returned from completing a mission.

"Please come in." After the girl said this, she lowered her head slightly and closed her eyes to rest for a while, and by the way, she pressed down the many official chores that had accumulated in her heart.

Even after serving as the flagship and secretary ship for a long time, she struggled to take over the work that the Admiral had to deal with. Fortunately, the tasks of the town guard were not heavy during these days, and she began to gradually get used to it.

"Eh~ Mr. Commander is not here" The girl who reached out and pushed open the half-hidden door muttered a little frustrated when she saw the scene of the girl sitting alone behind the desk behind the door.

"The Admiral should be in the ashram at the moment, and all the tasks before noon will be handled by me, and you are here to report on the escort mission not long ago?" After hearing such an inquiry, the girl, who had wanted to take a break, raised her head and replied after regrouping.

"Yes, yes! Mission E-9, issued by Mr. Tver, has been successfully completed, and no abnormalities have been found during the mission, and no traces of the deep sea have been found. Even Mogador, who used to be quite hilarious, couldn't help but restrain his personality when he faced the girl in front of him alone, and meticulously reported the situation according to the formal system.

"Well, it's this task...... I see, the second half of Mr. Tver's remuneration has been credited to the account, and the task has indeed been successfully completed. Fingers swiped lightly across the cold screen, and the girl asserted with certainty only after using a permission given to her by the Admiral to check the balance changes in the account.

"When will Mr. Commander come out~" Mogador, who had nothing to do, sat bored on the bench in his office and quietly glanced at Veneto in his seat. After not seeing too heavy or serious expressions, he asked out loud.

"It should take some time...... In the past, the Admiral would not return from the ashram until noon. The girl, who was sorting out and merging several files, answered casually and then didn't say anything.

Mogador, who was sitting bored, noticed Veneto's dedication to official business, and there was a little more admiration in his originally envious eyes.

What I envy is that she is the first ship lady of the Admiral, and she has a lot of time with the Admiral after serving as the flagship and secretary ship, but it is difficult for her to have such a close relationship with the Admiral; What I admire is her strength, whether it is as the core combat power of the fleet, or as a secretary ship to handle official duties, she can complete it perfectly, and this result makes Mogador, who is quite envious of her status, have to admit that Veneto is the best candidate.

Just when this girl, who didn't look very old, was thinking about this very tangled question too precociously, the sudden inexplicable tremor from the mental network made her realize that something seemed to be happening.

"Huh?" "Huh?"

The two people, whose azimuths were almost identical, felt such an abnormality almost at the same time, and after looking at each other, they could see the confusion and incomprehension in each other's eyes.

Naturally, Veneto did not continue to be stunned or speculate for no reason, but used the flagship communication equipment on his ship to communicate with several other girls who were still in the coverage of the spiritual network.

But the result of their answers made the girl frown:

"They don't perceive it as clearly as we do...... But it is certain that they did not cause it. ”

According to the different degrees of weakness in different areas after the shock is generated at this moment, the girl can only lock the source in this town guard mansion.

Could it be due to a change on the Admiral's side? The boy couldn't help but draw such an inference. None of the others in the Guard Mansion could trigger such a change, and the girl had no choice but to connect the matter to Aritus, who was closely related to the spiritual network.

Just as the girl couldn't help but send a brief inquiry to the young man in the quiet room, the faint tremor that had been continuous suddenly stopped. But whether it was Veneto or several other ship girls, they could vaguely sense that something new seemed to be linked to the originally stable spiritual network.

Veneto, who serves as the flagship and is an important node in the spiritual network, can naturally feel more things. Judging by what she had seen before, she was almost certain that it was the prototype of a new mental network.

Has the Admiral crossed that threshold? In addition to the joy, the girl was also more or less mixed with some doubts, she had also heard the Admiral talk about the experience of trying to build a new network several times but failed, and knew that the Admiral still needed a long time to accumulate to succeed. But this sudden change made the girl puzzled.

The young man's thoughts that echoed in the spiritual network temporarily dispelled her superfluous thoughts, and then put down the official business in his hand and prepared to get up.

"Mr. Commander, let's go to the ashram together~" Mogador, who looked confused and still didn't know what was going on, tilted his head and said to Veneto.

"Well, let's go over together, it seems that they are all on the island now......" The girl said to herself, and casually pushed open the door and walked towards the remote quiet room in the distance.

When the town guard was first built, it was necessary to consider the lack of materials and equipment, and the town guard house was only roughly divided into two parts. One is the administrative block used for daily maintenance and storage of all kinds of equipment and materials, and the other is the accommodation and other daily living blocks, and the ashram is located in the rightmost corner of the administrative area.

"Admiral?" Before they had gone a few corners, the two girls saw the young man standing in front of the door of the ashram.

A gentle smile stopped on the young man's face, and the already delicate face was even more sunny, sweeping away the gloomy temperament that had become due to the heavy burden.

Veneto looked at this rather charming smile, and couldn't help but think back to how long it had been since he had seen the Admiral so relaxed, maybe the last time was at the academy's graduation ceremony, right?

"You're the fastest, and the others are still on their way." The young man who walked in a little bit looked at the two and said.

"The office should be the closest to here...... Has the Admiral already built a second spiritual network? Veneto asked, somewhat surprised.

"Indeed, I didn't expect it to be so easy this time......" The young man smiled undiminishedly, but also said with a little more emotion. Originally, he just wanted to try and summarize the difficulties in order to overcome them, but he didn't expect that today, it seems to be very smooth, and the prototype seed of the second network is created as a matter of course.

"So Mr. Commander, there is a celebration banquet today~" Mogador, who had been working with Suzuya for a long time and seemed to be also infected by it, asked.

"Well, there's no rush in this matter. Veneto, please go to the resource reserve warehouse over there and take out 50 standard units of materials. The boy shook his head and then instructed the white-haired girl in front of him.

"It's true that at the moment the manpower is only barely able to put the castle framework up and running...... "Veneto quickly understood what Arritheus meant, and he was worried about this matter for a long time in the process of dealing with official business.

"Under normal circumstances, this year is just to accumulate experience and familiarize myself with the operation of the town guard...... But it looks like the future plans need to be changed. The reason why the boy said this was because the problem of this spiritual network was a bottleneck that constrained many admirals from expanding their fleets.

Unable to form a new spiritual network, even if a larger number of ships are summoned, they will not be able to reasonably form and exert their combat power, and the combat effectiveness will be significantly lower, and it will seriously drag down the operation of the town guard. It would take at least half a year or more for most ordinary admirals to break through this barrier, but Aretus' sudden success changed the situation all at once.

"It's true, in order to ensure the sea control in the waters around the town, there are too few people who can be assigned to carry out the E-category transport escort mission." As a flagship and a master who handles a lot of official business, Veneto is well aware of this situation. The Admiral's sensible approach also convinced her that Gain's survival must have the right plan.

If it is reckless to summon a powerful capital ship, not to mention that there is no enemy in the current sea area that is difficult to defeat, just counting its consumption will greatly drag down the operation of the town guard. That's why it's better to summon a destroyer to earn more money and materials by completing escort missions.

"Understood, Admiral, please wait a moment." Veneto nodded, then walked towards the resource room in the distance, leaving only Aritus and Mogador in their place.

"Commander, Commander! Can the new companion stay with me? Mogador, who was pulling the corner of the boy's clothes, pleaded.

"Well...... It should be fine, your room should be sufficient, and I have no problem if the newcomer doesn't refuse. The boy replied after thinking for a second. The boy took into account that Mogador was the best training and actual combat results among the destroyers in the current fleet, and coupled with his relatively mature mind, it seemed that it was not bad to teach newcomers.

"Great, Commander~" The girl who asked for permission gave the boy a hug gently, and seemed to be very happy.

Maybe she was a little lonely living alone in a dormitory before, right? Arrites thought.

"But the newcomer's teaching may also trouble you, after all, it has just been born and needs more training." Thinking back to the training of the soon-to-be-debuted shipwive, the boy noticed for the first time that this seemed to be a rather important and troublesome task.

"Commander, please rest assured that you will leave the task to me~" Mogador looked quite confident, and the boy did not hit her, but indifferently waited here for the resources that Veneto called. Since his subspace was full of crystallized ore, the little space left needed to be vacated just in case, so after this time, the boy himself was no longer responsible for stockpiling materials.

…………

Smoothly and flexibly depicting the necessary rituals and words on the ground, but the four materials are placed just right, the young man calmly completes all the preparations before the summoning, and then uses spiritual power to stimulate the rituals to gain resonance.

This is not a change in experience after a lot of attempts, but the result of a teenager learning to gradually use his perception and integrate it into his movements. Simple and fast, yet with maximum efficiency, without any stagflation caused by a mismatch between consciousness and body.

Among the ship's wives, only Veneto vaguely noticed that the Admiral's movements were obviously much smoother than before, but he didn't say much knowing that this was not the time to ask.

"Admiral, what is the waiting time this time?" De Moin, who was in charge of resource scheduling, also followed Veneto to the ashram and asked when he saw the boy emerge from the room.

"0:24, it doesn't seem like you have to wait too long." Of course, the boy knew that the summoning of the destroyer girl was full of variables, and even at this moment, he couldn't guess what kind of ship girl would appear.

"Admiral! Suzuya also wants to meet Kumano-san! The girl who saw the quiet room that was emitting a faint light asked excitedly.

"Well...... It is also necessary to strengthen the power of cruisers, but not now? Although he knew that Suzuya was actually half-joking, Arietes did consider the reality that the cruisers in the fleet were too weak after this time, and couldn't help but think about the necessity of continuing to summon in the following time.

In this warm morning of leisure and not much war, Aritaus and several girls gathered together, as if enjoying this rare leisure, and the laughter of several girls also made him let go of some heavy things in his heart, and even his body became much lighter.

In the deep blue light that shone in front of the door of the silent room, the young man pushed open the closed door at will, and saw the petite figure.

The black hair, which was combed into a princess's head, was tied up in two strands on both sides, and the fluffy hangs down to cover the edge of the ears. What is more interesting is the grayish-white gradient at the end of the braid, which looks like the ears of some kind of animal.

The overly petite figure also seems to be a little out of line with the slender light white shirt, and the excessively long hem will make people mistake it for a dress. The girl's wrists seem to be blocked by clothing, and people can't help but worry about whether it will affect their normal activities.

As for the two quadruple torpedo tubes that looked too heavy behind them, they could no longer surprise him. After all, after witnessing the bombardment of Veneto's other shore, Aritus felt that he really couldn't connect the size of the ship with the terrifying combat power.

As if sensing the young man's gaze, the girl, who was still unconscious, opened her eyes slightly, and when she noticed the dazzling sunlight outside the window, she said:

"Huh? Is it morning? Then the girl seemed to notice the young man standing in front of her, and said with a slight smile:

"Shi Jinfeng wants to have breakfast~The Admiral will make breakfast~"

At this moment, the teenager was a little skeptical about whether he had any special attributes to attract foodies...... But to be precise, every ship girl seems to have the potential to become a big stomach?

But with the help of this new ship's mother, the problem of the personnel gap in the town guard mansion can be alleviated for the time being, and it doesn't seem to be a hassle to have an extra breakfast compared to this Aritus......
