Chapter 148: A Distorted Status Quo

The trails in the mountains are a bit rough. Riding a bike on this trail is not a pleasant experience. Especially at night when the lights are so dark. If there is a beautiful girl waiting for you. Maybe it will feel better. But as a delivery man in Bobble's tavern. He knew that all he would see on his trip was a gendarmerie uniform. Guy with nostrils pointing up.

That guy. Don't tip every time, don't say. It's just nonsense. complained that the takeaway delivered in the past was cold. But the boss didn't dare to offend this guy. Who made that guy a gendarmerie?

This year. It's a gendarmerie can't be bullish. I really don't understand. Don't you feel a little bored with the ship girls? Managed by this kind of guy. I can't get any better.

Worked in a tavern for a few years. Originally, I wanted to go to the Admiralty Academy's training. But the bombing a few years ago completely changed his mind. He was helping old Bobble carry some drinks that day. On the other side of the mountain, there was an earth-shattering explosion.

Wait until the explosions stop. When old Barber took him to check. The entire town guard has been reduced to rubble. Several shipwives collapsed in the ruins. Little Bobble as Admiral. That is, the son of his boss Barber Sr. It has long been turned into a lump of coke.

Since then. He also dismissed the idea of becoming an admiral. Although being a Governor is wonderful. It's also very desirable. But well. It's more important to be alive.

The lights in the distance also came into his sight. It was the street lamp in front of the town guard's office building. It's finally here. That gendarmerie guy. Can't you eat on time every day? I had to wait until it was dark to call and ask for food.

Leave the bike downstairs. He lifted the takeout box from the back seat. Walked upstairs. also glanced at the dormitory building on the side of the ship's girls. I really want to see those beautiful ship girls.

But that's basically unlikely. The shipwives carry out patrols and other tasks during the day. Now it's all night. Unless he runs like an idiot and climbs the window. Otherwise, you won't be able to see those shipwives at all.

With some regret. Walked up the stairs. Came to the door of the obnoxious gendarmerie. At this time, he couldn't help but feel a little jealous of this guy. I can actually see those young and beautiful ship girls every day. This guy is really lucky.

Knock knock. He raised his fist and knocked twice on the door. "Your takeaway is here."

The room was quiet. There was no sound at all. Odd. I just saw the lights on. Something strange knocked on the door again. Still no one answered.

It's already past ten o'clock in the evening. He didn't want to wait here any longer. It's time to get off work now. Let's put our things down and go back. Anyway, if this guy doesn't pay. So I called the gendarmerie branch in this place and asked for a debt.

Reached for the doorknob. This has happened several times. The guy inside usually goes to Old Barber at the end of the month to settle the bill. And in addition to taking a boat. I want to leave this town. Their town is the way to go.

I easily pushed the door open. Glancing inside. But that's it. He suddenly felt a cold, cold breath blowing on his body.

When. The box he was carrying fell to the ground immediately. There was a rattling and water sound inside. It's the sound of the food being poured inside. But at this time, he didn't have the heart to take care of these things at all.

The obnoxious gendarmerie collapsed at the table at this point. A hand was broken at the wrist. There was also a hideous bloody wound on his neck. He could even see the stubble sticking inside. The spray of blood stained the entire table red. A pool of blood has formed on the ground. Blood was still dripping from the corner of the table to the ground.

"Ahhh Ran out with both hands and feet. There was no cry for help. Instead, he ran straight out. Ride your own mount. Desperately rushed out of town.

A few days later. The whole town already knew the news. The gendarmerie on the nearby town guard house was killed. The Admiral and the Shipwives are gone. For a while, the whole town was panicked.

……

"Hey, hey. Luke. What have you done? The Governor sent a telegram. He told us to pay attention to safety. Improve precautions. You're not going to do anything angry, are you? Lillian took the document she had just sent. He looked suspiciously at Luke, who looked like he was nothing.

"Oh. Nothing. Don't care. What are you supposed to do, what are you supposed to do? That's right. How's your workout going? Luke sat in his chair. While drinking tea, he checked the video from his mobile phone.

"Ahaha. Well, this one. That's right. Do you really want to take in Hinata them? Are you sure that the stock in the base is enough to feed so many ship girls? Lillian smiled awkwardly. Immediately use the Diversion Technique to ask Luke about their placement.

Rolled his eyes. Lillian this guy. Who did you learn this kung fu from to divert the subject? "Even if I can't support you, don't I still have you? If you can persuade them to join you. Then you'll be in charge of them from now on. "Besides, the gold in his hand is not long enough to run out. There was some gold dug up from that iron mine. The cost of living materials to maintain the entire base is basically sufficient.

"Huh. Oh yes. Then maybe my fleet will be able to grow in size. "A knock on the palm. Lillian said with a sudden realization.

"But don't be too happy. It's up to you whether you can convince them or not. After all, they've just escaped from there. He spat at Lillian, who was excited. Luke poured cold water on her.

"Ahem. Really. Then I'd better go back to building a ship. I still have some self-knowledge of my own eloquence. "Choked on the oncoming smoke. Lillian grumbled at Luke. Then he pouted. Sullenly, he turned around and walked towards his factory.

Seeing Lillian eat deflated and leave. Luke shrugged his shoulders. The data collected by the satellite already has an idea. It's time to give a popular science lesson to a few of your own shipwives. His goal isn't just to be comfortable. He's staring at the crystal ore on the moon right now.

Those crystal ores are the core materials that can actually make a spaceship engine. Interstellar travel is not possible with arc engines alone. At most, it's just a walk around the solar system.

But there's not much of that on the moon. At most, it was with some meteorites falling on the moon. If you scavenge around the ground, you will only be able to make two jump engines. Of course, the premise is that there is indeed that kind of crystal ore on the moon of this world.

Otherwise, he would have to find another way. There are no crystal ores. It's not easy to build a jump engine.

Alas. Is. There's more to do than you can count. Let's squint for a moment. It seems like a bit too busy these days.

Just as Luke was resting on the chaise longue. The old man of the Governor is in great trouble.

A black bracelet. It is served in a beautiful wooden box. Pushed in front of the governor. Look at this black bracelet. And the young man sitting across from him. The Governor's eyebrows furrowed merely together.

"You do this kind of thing. Have you ever considered the feelings of the ship's mother? The Governor's beard trembled. Obviously angry.

"No, no, no. You're not right to say that. Even if the ship girl has the posture of a human being. But it's always just a weapon. We're just making these weapons a little more obedient. There is nothing to think about not considering. That's a good thing for humanity. After all, there is only a sword in your own hand. To be considered a good sword is not. A weapon with self-awareness. In particular, weapons that can't be waved against our enemies can only be considered inferior. "The young man sitting across from the Governor. He talked with a smug face.

The Governor's face twitched. He looked at the two gendarmerie behind the young man. They all pointed a rifle at his head.

He has been sitting in this position for so many years. It was the first time anyone had dared to point a gun to his head like this. I deserve to be a young man. The courage is already so big. Or is he really old now?

"Sooner or later. You will swallow your bitter fruit. The Governor said with a look of resentment. But there is still some bitterness in my heart. The next generation of admirals has been trained through hard work. In the end, you have to be treated like this.

"Well. We'll wait until that day. Governor. Please think about it. Now except for you. There weren't a few of them left. A smug smile tugged at the corners of his mouth. Can force the governor to compromise. It gave him an unparalleled sense of accomplishment.

"Hmph. Don't think about it. I won't accept that. Big deal, I'll leave with them. The Governor stood up indignantly. Take off your hat and drop it on the table. Walked straight out of the office.

These guys only gave him two options. Either put a control bracelet on the ship's mother and join them. Or leave Star Island with your own ship's mother. This is already a preferential treatment for these guys in the past teachings.

Think of those little admirals. If you don't promise these guys. Eighty percent is going to be cleaned. Come to think of it. The Governor could not help but feel a sense of sorrow in his heart. Obviously, the threat of the deep sea is close at hand. It's just that these guys are still trying to do something to the island's council at this time. Aren't they afraid that they won't be able to resist the next time the deep sea attacks?

led a group of ship ladies in his town to guard the mansion. Brought supplies from several cargo ships. The Governor finally said goodbye to the town guard he had guarded for decades. They had just walked out of the gates of the town guard's mansion. A large number of ship girls came out. He is in charge of all kinds of things in the town guard's house.

There is never a shortage of shipwits in the gendarmerie. It's self-inflicted. I thought that I could be well taken care of by transferring those redundant shipwives to the gendarmerie. It turned out that he personally pushed them into the fire pit.

Come to think of it. The governor's heart began to drip blood.
