Chapter 3: The Evening Door-to-Door
Hostels in Port Viglia Mill
Although it has gradually changed from a single-function military base to a multi-purpose port due to its geographical location, the original design intention of this place has not changed. The houses built on the islands www.biquge.info are half-clinging to undulating rocks, not all exposed to the endless sea breeze.
This design is still a continuation of the concept of defending against deep-sea attacks. In order to prevent the deep sea from easily destroying important structures such as the castle from all sides, the new humans who originally developed the important port set design guidelines for building on the mountain, and painted special camouflage on the buildings on the island. With the terrain and camouflage bonuses, the town guard built in the middle of the island is also difficult to find. In later construction, a similar method was adopted to a greater or lesser extent.
Of course, these are only superficial camouflage and disguise work. Among the imperceptible mountain fortresses, there are also hidden close-in weapons systems built by humans, which can deflect and intercept some naval guns fired from the deep sea.
It's a pity that this method is still effective against some low-level deep-sea and non-battleship-class deep-sea, but in the face of a more powerful deep-sea, these weapons can only be put aside. Facts have once again proved that the only way to fight the deep sea with the power of the ship girl is the simplest and simplest way. What's more, in this strategic point, there is no shortage of ships to carry out the task of fighting the deep sea.
In the hostel, hidden between the mountains and camouflage, the boy is standing in front of a huge floor-to-ceiling window. The sunset sun was turning red on his face, and a little golden light could still be seen at the end of his originally pale blue hair.
The boy could faintly hear the sound of running water from the bathroom not far away, and the light and high humming of the girl mixed with it.
A slightly familiar tune comes from the ears, and the melodious singing brings a cheerful and energetic atmosphere. Under the background of the singing, the originally slightly dim sky no longer seems so depressing, and the young man's original mood that was silent due to thinking is also a little relaxed.
The singing didn't last long, but after a while, a white-haired girl in pure white pajamas and steaming all over her body turned around and walked out of the bathroom.
Perhaps the girl's face and posture were so attractive at this time that Aritaus was a little distracted.
"Is there something going on with the Admiral?" The girl didn't seem to know why he was staring at her, and asked with some surprise.
Arritheus had to sigh that the ship's mother was born with a good appearance. In other words, all the ship girls have that amazing beauty like fantasy. Just like the perfect and highly recognizable face of the utopian creation, it can be remembered as long as it is seen at a glance, and it will never be forgotten again.
And the girl in front of her, after unloading the ship's uniform, put on her regular clothes, she looked even more petite and cute. The delicate face and the slightly silvery white hair were also put down by the bath, and the fair and smooth skin was matched. The white-haired girl dressed in white seemed to appear from a dream, and her face had a slightly unrealistic illusion.
Of course, as far as Arrites is concerned, she still thinks that Veneto looks cuter at this time, after all, Veneto's ship outfit is a bit too huge for her......
"Well, how did you change into this outfit? It's not time to rest yet", because they didn't use a spiritual link, the two naturally talked in words.
"Came to mind the Parmesan cheese that I had in the afternoon...... It's really a nostalgic taste......", the girl seemed to remember something, and sighed involuntarily. She went out with the Admiral in the afternoon to buy a lot of daily necessities, of course, these clothes were also one of them, and now she wore the set she liked the most.
"It's a pity that it doesn't seem to be very pure......", the girl added another comment.
"Maybe it's because most of the ingredients are synthetic, and there are no special ingredients in natural foods." Arrites, who understood her words a little, replied.
"Occasionally, I think it's a little strange that the Admiral lives in this era...... Obviously, human beings have their own powerful scientific and technological capabilities, but they still need the protection of our ship...... Can it only be said that the deep sea is too powerful? ", the girl recalled everything she had seen and heard on the road, and said with inexplicable emotion.
The boy was silent for a moment, he actually felt this way. In this world, the industrial and production capacity of human beings have been greatly improved before the catastrophe, but in the face of the deep sea, the embodiment of pure killing, human science and technology still have the upper hand.
It is not that farming and climbing the technology tree can solve all problems, and while human beings are restoring their own civilization, it is with the hard protection of the shipwives and admirals that they can exchange for the glory of civilization that is gradually recovering.
"Don't you need anything to eat at night? The hostels here also seem to offer some food and beverage services. Watching the sunset gradually set, the girl seemed to recall that the teenager in front of her had not eaten dinner.
There's more to it than just food...... Alytes shook his head with an inexplicable look as he thought back to the many advertisements and bios that popped up on the light screen.
He calmly took out the high-energy nutrition bar from his pocket, gathered a glass of water with his mental power, and said softly: "Actually, this is dinner." ”
In terms of nutrition and energy alone, this bar is actually the easiest and quickest way to replenish. And in the most critical moment of human beings, they also rely on these things to survive. However, in the era of gradual stabilization, the ancient cooking technology was re-spread to human society. Of course, modern polymer food engineering is still an indispensable part of life, for example, most of the desserts they eat in the afternoon are synthetic foods.
The same is true for the nutrition bar in the hand of the teenager, which is a food that is formed by combining all the nutrients that a normal human needs for a day. However, this kind of thing is similar to stockpiling food, and each person has a monthly purchase limit, after all, this thing will become an important material that can save lives at a critical moment.
Of course, if you have water when you eat it, or you'll choke to death on the steel-hard bar.
"The Admiral can go out and eat something...... Why ......", the girl asked.
"Because there may be guests coming, and if we go too fast in the afternoon after getting rid of them completely, she may not be able to find us." , the boy said meaningfully.
What the boy noticed, the girl naturally noticed it, but she didn't pay much attention to it at first, and then she just threw it away after she found out.
"Who are the guests?" , the girl asked uncertainly. On land, due to the weakening of her core and the fact that she did not release her ship's armor here, her mental strength was greatly affected. Although they sensed that someone was following them, they were unable to perceive their identity exactly.
"It's a certain lady with whom we have a relationship", the boy put the energy bar in his hand into the cup of clear water, let it naturally absorb and fluffy, and then broke off a piece and chewed it vigorously.
It's not as good as Aokin's taste, and this is the only feeling that Aritus feels at this time.
"En???" The girl was a little confused at first, but only reacted after a while.
"It's really ......convenient for the Admiral's mental power not to be affected by the weakening effects and the limitations of the ship's equipment," the girl said with some envy. The ship girls can only fully show their abilities when they unfold the ship outfit and the sea, and their spiritual strength is also average. Unless it is a very high energy level and strong spiritual power, in the state of the girl at this time, the spiritual power is even worse than that of ordinary admirals, but it is stronger than ordinary people.
The boy's judgment was not wrong, and he didn't wait long, and when he finished the last bit of the bar, a light electronic bulletin sounded outside the door.
"Admiral?" , the white-haired girl beside him has already connected to him with a spiritual link in case of need.
The boy easily slid open the window on the electronic light screen, and through the video he confirmed that it was the woman who had followed them for a while.
Curly blond hair, turquoise eyes, and an overwhelming countenance. Even if you don't expand your spiritual power to perceive, you can guess her extraordinary identity.
This was the same lady who had followed them for some time that afternoon, and both Arrites and Veneto had rubbed shoulders with her at the café.
The boy didn't know what she was following him for, and he couldn't guess what she was thinking when she visited tonight.
Aritus' gaze swept over the figure on the electronic screen, but he saw a girl in the arms of a woman.
It was easy to tell that it was her child, the long, slightly curly blonde hair tied together, and the girl's eyes were closed and her face was slightly red.
Asleep? The boy thought with some uncertainty, but he couldn't confirm the child's status through the electronic light screen, even if he felt that something seemed wrong.
"Excuse me?" , through the device installed in the doorway, Aritheus was able to stand here and talk to the lady outside the door.
"I'm the mother of this child." , The woman looked at the girl in her arms with a red and hot face, and her heart couldn't help but tighten, according to the previous practice, she knew that this was already a manifestation of being in some kind of critical state.
But even if she was extremely worried about her child's condition, she had to calm down and have a good chat with the teenager in front of her.
"It's not that I want to ask you, it's what you're here for." The boy looked at the woman outside the door very calmly and began to ask her purpose.
The blonde woman standing outside the door was puzzled for a moment, but only slightly made a lip gesture and said three words.
As if afraid that Arites did not see clearly, she repeated it again.
And the young man was in amazement at this time, because the three words she spoke were high-purity water.
This rare material is the main ingredient in the production of high-energy repair liquid, and it is stored as a necessary strategic material in human society, and only those who are in the status of Admirals can receive it through certain channels or buy some in a specific way.
So the woman's inquiries at the café this afternoon were bound to yield no results, as they were so rare and difficult to manufacture, so each Admiral was careful to use and preserve them.
The boy turned many thoughts for a while. He had never used his ability to make high-purity water in front of outsiders, so he ruled out the possibility that someone would come to him for this reason. The second is the fact that he exposed the fact that he still has a large amount of high-purity water, but since breaking through the open sea, he has left some of the high-purity water on his body in the subspace of Veneto, and he has not taken it out on the way. So how did this lady outside the door find out?
But in a moment, he had already made up his mind, and was about to speak when he heard the lady outside the door say, "Mr. Admiral, I want to have a serious talk with you. ”
There was a brief silence, and the girl's thoughts came from the spiritual connection with Veneto.
"Admiral? How did she know ......", the girl was also very surprised that the lady outside the door found out the identity of the young admiral next to her.
"It seems that it should be perceived through spiritual power. After I got off the ship, I lifted the mental power shield, and I guess I was discovered in this gap. The boy probably guessed the reason for this. He couldn't help but remember that he had tried to use his mental power to test it in the café, and perhaps it was because of this that his identity was revealed.
"But she didn't unpack her ship, and she was on land, just like me...... Unless her energy level is far superior to mine, so that I don't have any advantage as a prototype ship. The girl couldn't help but put forward this conjecture.
You must know that Veneto, who is a prototype ship, has a slightly stronger spiritual power than an ordinary replica ship of the same energy level. Even so, when she was on land, the spiritual power she could release was very weak. If his spiritual power is estimated according to this conjecture, then the lady standing in front of him is at least an existence above the fifth level. And there is a ship of this level, which is the key combat force of human beings to fight the deep sea, if you want some high-purity water, how can you not get it?
The contradictory suspicion made the boy frown slightly, but after thinking about it for a while, he opened the door and welcomed the lady standing outside the door in.
After all, this is an island ruled by many human admirals, and it is very safe here. Alitus wasn't worried about any surprises, after all, he himself had considerable combat power.
One of the major benefits that having the ability to ship ships brings to Aritus is that he will not be a burden to his own wives. The so-called capture the enemy first captures the king, as the information center and processing center of the ship girls, the admirals generally avoid the frontal battlefield on the battlefield. After all, although they are not ordinary people, they are still too different from the deep sea, and if they are captured and killed by the deep sea, the serious consequences will be self-evident.
Aritus did not have such troubles, and if he encountered a very critical situation, he could also mobilize his ship's capabilities to protect himself.
Of course, there is another reason, that is, in the port where the town guard is located, unless there are special circumstances and the concession holder, the ship's mother is not allowed to release the ability to use the ship.
It was precisely because of this that he had the confidence to let this ship lady full of secrets in.
