Chapter 45: Temptation
More than three hours later, just when Ninghai's fuel consumption reached nearly half, a faint light suddenly appeared on the originally dark horizon.
Because there was no means of communication, Li Lan couldn't ask Nagato in front of him if it was the destination, or if it was the patrol fleet of deep-sea habitat ships, so he could only ask Ning Hai to raise his vigilance.
As the distance narrowed, the intensity of the light gradually increased, and this real town guard mansion also completely entered Lilan's sight.
The side that Riran saw alone was more than 5,000 meters long, and the first light he saw came from the lighthouses scattered above the castle, and in the middle of the coastline on the south side of the castle, it was the dock that only Riran had imagined.
There are more than 10 ultra-long steel platforms, which divide the long coastline into more than a dozen ship positions with a width of nearly 300 meters, which is exactly the same as the west coast of the "base", but the dock of the "base" is sunk at the bottom of the sea waiting to decay, and the town guard in front of you ......
"Disbanded after entering the canal according to their respective numbers, I will report to the Admiral on today's results, and your performance is quite good."
"It's this sentence again, it's time for Nagato-chan to change its taste~"
"If you can become a secretary ship, you can change it however you want."
ββ¦β¦β
"That...... Gaga went back to the shower first......"
"Atago is also together~"
Looking at the distant backs of the ship's girls, Nagato breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, no matter how many times, he always felt that it was more difficult to deal with these overly lively partners than to collide head-on with the deep-sea habitat ship, at least the latter didn't require you to spend so much effort, as long as you kept attacking.
"It seems that it is not easy for you" With the three "elementary school students" who successfully entered the canal, Lilan walked to Nagato's side and said with feelings.
From the end of the ditch to the present, the creaking sound of metal twisting in the mouth of the Z16 following behind has hardly stopped.
"I'll make you smile, and I'll take you to the Admiral."
"Well, I'm curious, tooβ" Rilan looked around, not just the dock, but the entire ground on the south side of the town guard was extremely flat, and with the concrete poured and the stone floor covered, there was hardly any need to worry about the impact of the waves that were not strong enough.
With his own judgment, I am afraid that the naval guns of the deep-sea habitat ship will bombard it, and as long as the caliber does not exceed 200mm, I am afraid that it will not be able to lift this layer of "defense".
"What kind of character can build such a level of town guard?"
ββββββ Split ββββββ
Walking on the way to the Admiral's office, Nagato changed his previous cold attitude, although he still had that serious expression, but he was unexpectedly "enthusiastic" to introduce the situation of this town guard mansion to Rilan.
"This is the special dormitory of the ship's mother, which is roughly divided into artillery combat team, mine combat team, and aircraft carrier formation according to the different fleets and types of ships......
"Wait......"
"There's the repair pod, if your fleet is damaged in battle, you can repair it through the 'Channel'......"
If I'm not mistaken, the other shipwives just entered this building...... This is probably the regular repair method in the mouth.
However, Rylan still didn't understand.
"May I ask why Miss Nagato knows about ......" The tone paused, and after hesitating for a while, Lilan still chose to ask: "I'm not familiar with these things?" β
ββ¦β¦ Although these things should not be explained to you by me, it is true that the Seventh Town Guard has fallen"
Li Lan was stunned, these two ...... And what's the connection?
"This is it" Walking to a room with lights on, Nagato didn't give Riran a chance to continue asking questions: "The rest of the admirals will explain to you that as for your fleet, Nagato will take it into the canal first, and if I'm not mistaken, the response should have been damaged by the damage of the break not long ago?" β
Sure enough, manual repair is somewhat unreliable.
"Thank you very much, then"
He gestured to the three "elementary school students", only to find that only one was listening attentively to his words.
Curious to look around, while not forgetting the "eating" Z16 in his mouth
"Squeak~Squeak~Squeak~"
Compared with Nagato, it is more in line with the adjective "cold": "...... Xopowoβ
The only one who is willing to take care of himself is Ning Hai: "Yes, Lord Admiral"
"This is as it should be" walked away with the three shipwresses from the Seventh Town Guard, and Li Lan looked at their backs suspiciously.
"Please take care of me in the future? What do you mean? β
In short, everything will be answered here.
With this mentality, Lilan pushed open the door of the office, and then-
I saw such a scene.
"Admiral~"
Long snow-white hair, a blouse that subtly exposes her abdomen, and a skirt that is a little too short, but the most striking thing is the mechanical instrument that "jumps" behind her back, if you read it right...... That's a ship's outfit?.
"Shimakaze, it's not that I won't let you go on the expedition, it's just that you've been leaving the fleet and acting alone, and Nagato has complained to me more than once"
"Because they're too slow~"
"Snap"
Two lines of sight, four eyes cast in the direction of the door at the same time.
ββ¦β¦ Sorry to interrupt, you guys continue"
"Ahem" hurriedly let the girl named Island Wind get out of the way, and the "Admiral", who was at least 60 years old, was already full of solemnity when he stood up.
"Welcome, Admiral from the Seventh Town's Guard"
ββ¦β¦β
"Staringβ"
"Island Wind, Don't Cause Trouble"
"Staringβ"
ββ¦β¦ Tomorrow I'll explain to Nagato that you're going to go."
"Yay~Lord Admiral's favorite~"
Just under Rilan's stiff expression, a girl named Shima Feng happily ran past him, and suddenly stopped when she passed by: "Greetings to you from Gun-chan ~Lord Admiral~"
β¦β¦ Cannon sauce is shenmegui again?
Anyway, after the ship's mother named Island Wind left, the atmosphere at the scene finally had a bit of a "negotiation" look.
"First of all, let me introduce myself, my name is Resors Herman, the former Okamoka Town Guard, and now the current Governor of the Sixth Town Guardhouse."
Obviously, he was just an ordinary "old grandfather" at the last moment, but after the island wind left, he unprovoked an aura that had been in a high position for a long time.
It's not so much about introducing yourself as it is about getting off the rails.
Looking at the outstretched right hand of the admiral in front of him, who was at least 60 years old, Lilan thought to himself.
"Lilan, the former unemployed vagrant, is now the Governor of the Seventh Town"
"Rilan?" Holding his right hand, the latter smiled meaningfully: "I haven't heard that the Federation has such a surname as 'li'."
"Me too" Li Lan showed a "distressed" expression at the right time: "I've never heard of a 'jobless vagrant' who can be a governor" subtly reversed.
Without any annoyed reaction to Rilan's temptation, Resus smiled heartily: "The past is the past, and since Your Excellency has become an admiral of the Federation, you should set your sights on the future, right?" β
