During the 22 minutes of waiting, Ning Hai popularized some of the "common sense" about the ship's mother to Lilan.

Depending on the amount of resources invested, the ships built from the builder (the official name of that weird instrument in this world, how to put it, unexpectedly ordinary) will be different, and there will only be two types of warships built by relying on the basic resource formula, that is, 30, 30, 30.

One is a light cruiser like the Ninghai, and the other is a destroyer.

According to the tonnage comparison, it can be roughly divided into light ships.

"And what about other types of warships?"

"Eh...... I'm sorry, Lord Admiral, because Ninghai is not a prototype ship, so my memory in this area is a little broken......"

Li Lan was stunned: "Prototype ship? ”

In Ning Hai's explanation, Li Lan finally understood what was going on - why Ning Hai didn't explain all the things about the ship mother and the deep-sea habitat ship to Li Lan at the beginning.

In the long history of human confrontation with deep-sea habitat ships, although the types of ship mothers are not very few, but if each ship mother is only the only one, then it is definitely far inferior to the deep-sea habitat ships in terms of quantity.

Why are humans still able to hold on to this day?

This brings us to the question of prototype ships and replica ships.

As the name suggests, one is the archetype, and the number is unique. One is a replica, which can be produced almost endlessly as long as there are enough resources.

The difference between a prototype ship and a replica ship is not only this, but also more in combat capabilities - almost every prototype ship can confront 10 replica ships head-on under the same conditions without falling behind.

This huge gap is not only due to the combat parameters of various ships, but also due to memory.

"When the replica ship was born, what I got was a part of the memory that belonged to the prototype ship, although there is no problem with normal life, but as for the questions asked by Lord Admiral, Ning Hai doesn't know whether this part of the memory is real or ......."

"Enough ......"

"Moreover, many of the memories that Ning Hai has now are also incomplete, so there is no way to answer Lord Admiral's question."

"I've said enough—Ninghai!"

"Yes, yes!"

Closing his eyes, Lilan rubbed his eyebrows, and his good mood at the beginning was almost destroyed by this news.

"Tsk, did you even use memory cloning......

"That...... Is the Admiral angry? Ning Hai pinched the corners of his clothes and asked timidly.

Sighing, suppressing the anger in his heart, Lilan changed his smile: "I'm sorry, I just remembered some unhappy things"

"However, can Ning Hai promise me one thing?"

The answer to Lilan was Ning Hai's immature but unhesitating firm tone: "As long as it is what Lord Admiral wants!" ”

Pressing on the top of Ning Hai's head, Li Lan said softly: "No matter what the situation, you must remember - you are Ning Hai, the only and irreplaceable existence."

“…… Is it for the Admiral? ”

Li Lan was stunned, and then smiled: "Ah, for me, Ninghai is Ninghai - the only and irreplaceable Ninghai!" ”

"Well, after Ninghai, he will always be the Admiral's Ninghai~!"

―――――― Split ――――――

Last time, because he was not familiar with the builder, Li Lan ran away after hearing the abnormal movement on the west coast, causing Ning Hai to almost get lost on this island, this time, Li Lan, who has experience, can finally take a good look-

How did the ship's mother train?

However, it turns out that Rylan thinks too much.

"The destroyer, Z16, came to report! Are you my Admiral? ”

Without any warning, at the moment when the countdown was finished and disappeared, the girl wearing a hat appeared in front of her......

Reelan would have liked to call her an elementary school student!

I thought that Ning Hai was already small enough in the ship's mother, but it seems that this little girl who calls herself Z16 is younger than her?! Is it really okay for this kind of kid who should be carrying a backpack to school fight those deep-sea habitat ships that are terrifying at first sight?!

The bottom of his heart kept roaring, but Li Lan's face did not move-it was not good to scare the child......

"Ahem, if nothing else, I should be your admiral"

"Yes!" Unlike Ning Hai's recognition and shyness when they met for the first time, Z16, which looks younger than her, is unexpectedly self-familiar.

"As long as the resources are replenished, Z16 can attack at any time, do you have any orders now?"

Lilan replied dumbfounded: "No, there is no need to ...... it now"

Z1 raised his right hand and made a military salute that was crooked more than ten degrees, and asked Li Lan for instructions: "Then Z16 will be stationed at the harbor first and wait for orders."

"Uh, no problem......"

“……”

The confused eyes met the doubtful eyes.

"Command, Admiral"

The corners of Li Lan's mouth twitched: "Even if you say so......"

Ning Hai on the side of "that ......" only came back to her senses at this time, and it is estimated that she was also shocked by this overly serious "sister": "Lord Admiral, Ning Hai suddenly remembered, as a town guard, in addition to the most basic builders, there should be some facilities for other purposes, and the harbor is used to stop and supply warships that have not been dispatched and used for emergency repair......"

Hearing Ning Hai's explanation, Li Lan was even more speechless.

On this island, where can there be any harbor, even if there is an estimate, it will be bombarded by those deep-sea habitat ships that pass by from time to time.

"I'll just say it" Ning Hai retreated after explaining to Li Lan, obviously her fearful personality made her unable to communicate with this overly serious "sister" in a short period of time, and Li Lan could only bite the bullet and go on her own.

"It's not really a formal town guard...... At least not anymore."

After a pause, leaving a little time for Z16 to react, Li Lan continued: "Plus you, me, and Ninghai, there are only three of us on the entire island, maybe there were facilities like the harbor you talked about when this place was in good condition before, but now ......"

Rilan smiled helplessly and motioned for Z1 to look around.

It was almost the same as when Ning Hai arrived, with tattered walls, weeds growing everywhere, and the few remaining resources that were casually placed on one side......

"Huh...... The Admiral means that the Z16 has ......"

Li Lan stabilized her mind, and then Li Lan could understand how hurtful the words came out of Z16's mouth, after all, the memory of the part of the prototype ship she got may still be in a pampered environment, and suddenly even the most basic conditions are gone, and any ordinary person will not be able to stand it.

Ning Hai, who was beside him, probably also thought of this problem, and while looking at Li Lan's side face worriedly, he carefully stretched out his right hand and grabbed the corner of Li Lan's clothes......

"Z16 already—don't you have to put it on?"

“…… Ha? ”
