04 The first inscription, the eternal bond

The so-called inscription.

It is a ritual of completing a ship, and it is also an indispensable part.

The soulless steel ship is linked to the girl's soul with the hand of the caster, and the ship is given a soul personality, and since then, the girl and the ship have lived and died together, which is said to be a dedication like a dog god.

It sounds romantic, but it's actually a ritual with brutal connotations.

Lokat has not experienced this kind of inscription, in fact, the sixth expulsion team was transferred to Lokat for temporary use after some twists and turns, although it was only two months, but Lokat showed the expected unexpected combat ability, maybe Hirohiko did bet on the right treasure.

"In fact, the construction of the ship was completed a long time ago, but it is also very difficult to find the right one, let alone voluntarily."

Hirohiko watched the workers open the factory gate and looked at Kaga who was guarding him, and his expression was very good.

"Miss Kaga was inscribed by Mr. Hirohiko himself, right?"

After a moment's hesitation, Lokat turned to Hirohiko and asked.

"Who knows, right, Kaga."

Although it was only for a moment, Hirohiko's expression became a little dark, and although no expression appeared on Kaga's face, the brief silence seemed to acquiesce to this fact.

"Alright, looks like they're ready, let's go in first."

Hirohiko broke the silence and entered the dock first.

In the huge dock, a large number of unfinished and completed ships are lying quietly, and the most eye-catching of Lokat is a huge ship.

At first glance, the huge steel hull seems to boast of its existence, and the huge main gun is extremely conspicuous throughout the ship, presumably the cannonballs fired can easily tear through the hull of any ship and pierce any armor.

A large number of secondary guns and anti-aircraft cannons are also almost super firepower.

By the standards of that world, such a ship would be at least the rank of Aozus (i.e., Ryuen-class).

"I look like I'm taken aback."

Hirohiko pulled a cigarette out of his pocket, lit it, and continued.

"I was also taken aback at the beginning, this guy's figure is so beautiful, too spectacular."

Kaga just unconsciously pinched the longbow in his hand, and his expression still didn't change much.

"King Kong-type battleship No. 1, King Kong, although it is a foreign product, has been sleeping here for a while, and as you can see, it is only an unfinished product without inscriptions."

Hirohiko pointed to the huge hull.

"It is about 214 meters long, about 28 meters wide, 38 power boilers, the theoretical maximum speed is 27 knots, and the weapons are equipped with four joint 35.6 cm 45 times the caliber main gun, 16 152 mm caliber secondary guns, 12 76 cm high angle guns, eight 533 mm torpedo tubes, and other data have not been indicated for the time being because there is no official data, how about it, do you like this child?"

However, Locat's eyes were only slightly sideways.

"Please take me to meet the person of the inscription."

Although his heart was very entangled, Lokat decided to meet the girl who was about to become the 'soul' of this ship.

"HEY, IS THIS MR. ADMIRAL LOOKING FOR ME?"

The sound coming from above the ship made Locatt look up at the deck.

It was a girl dressed in a pure white witch suit, her long dark chestnut hair was like a piece of silk, her black eyes flashed with a sense of joy and vitality, her fair skin was fair and immature compared to the fabric of the witch suit, and the slender legs under the black short skirt ignited a lovely atmosphere, and the beautiful image of the girl was set off.

"I don't look for it, I'm Locat, the ......"

Even though he had been mentally prepared, Lokat still felt some spiritual tremors unexpectedly.

"Wow~ It seems that the Admiral has been fascinated by me, and the Admiral is also my favorite type, lucky."

The girl on the deck laughed, the smile was bright from the heart, although it was a little silly, but this energetic smile was easily imprinted in the eyes of everyone.

"I said...... Isn't this kind of rush too despicable? ”

Lockat slowly walked up to the deck, and stood with the girl, carefully studying the girl in front of him, as if to confirm something.

And the girl is also constantly scanning Locat's body with her eyes, and she is also confirming something.

Then both spoke at the same time.

"Now there is a chance to turn back, and it will be different after the inscription."

"The shape, the voice, oh, I like it, let's inscribe it, I can't wait, Admiral."

It can be said that one goes to the east and the other goes west, and the two don't match at all.

"You're going to die, huh? There is no mercy on the battlefield. ”

Locatt rubbed his head and said.

"As long as the Admiral commands well, it's fine."

The girl responded.

"What if I make a mistake in command?"

Locat's brow furrowed and continued to ask.

"I can't be mistaken, at least the results report doesn't say anything about your failures in the past few months."

The girl took out a report from behind her, which was full of records from the time Lokat entered the military department and began to serve as a commander until now, from exercises to actual combat. “

"I've lost to you, but have you really thought about it?"

Lockat said, looking at the workers who had already begun to prepare the ritual supplies, and Hirohiko and Sakurako on the side.

"As long as the admiral gives an order, even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, there is no problem."

Lockat leaned against the railing, his expression softened.

"It's about to start inscribed, let's go."

The girl beside her just nodded energetically, followed Locat's side, and came to the bridge, where the prepared ritual props had been placed aside.

"Now you're just standing here, Kid Carter's job is to act as a link between the ship and this young lady, so be focused."

Hirohiko instructed Lokat while dispersing unrelated personnel.

"Just chant like magic."

Locatt complained casually as he concentrated his mind, and there was not much light, nor did he have the expected difficulties.

It's like a highway of the heart or soul.,Construct the link between the ship and the girl.。

"Admiral? Admiral? ”

When I opened my eyes again, I don't know how long it had been, but the soft call in my ears was so gentle, and the sea breeze around me gently woke Locat's thoughts from sleep.

"HEY, Admiral has worked hard, but I've slept for a long time."

The eyes focused again, and the girl standing in front of her was still so vigorous, but the hull module that appeared behind her was a good indication that the girl had completed her dependence.

"Harbor?"

Locatel sat up, rubbed his head, and re-examined the surroundings, it was the scene of the setting sun, the orange sun dyed the sky and the sea golden, the chirping of seagulls one after another, and the girl was standing on the shallows, stepping barefoot in the water, not caring at all that the skirt of the witch dress was wet by the water, the breeze on the seashore blew, and the chestnut-colored long hair was blown up, so beautiful that people could not speak.

"Well, because I think it's more Romantic, so I brought the Admiral here desu."

Locatel gazed at the beautiful composition of the girl and the sea, as if he couldn't get tired of looking at it.

"King Kong-class high-speed battleship, King Kong desu, please join the team, Admiral, please take care of desu."

The girl spun in a circle on the beach, and then playfully saluted.

"Welcome to my fleet, King Kong."

Locat's expression smiled softly, and he stretched out his hands towards the girl, no, now it should be said that it was King Kong.
