As the days passed, by late May, Hannah had not been seen in the coastal city, and the Golden Shadow and her people had lost their patience. The field team expanded the search area, but still found nothing, as if the other party had disappeared into thin air for no apparent reason. Despite this, Xiao Dian continued to search while strengthening the security of Paula City, because she and all the people in the Western Continent knew that the day when the Alliance's main fleet had completed its rest was approaching.

No one wanted to see the fleet being sent back to the shipyard by a barrage of magic crystal bombs as it was preparing to sail out to sea to fight the enemy.

Far away in the Garden of Hope, Alicia listened to a joint briefing by Francis, Jikrem, and Dubis on the state of the fleet on a leisurely Sunday morning.

"Yes, most of the damaged warships have already been repaired. Alicia leaned lazily on the couch and looked at the image of the three of them printed in the communication crystal ball, "It's a little faster than I thought, I thought it wouldn't be done until mid-June." But Francis, you didn't do anything to get the job done, did you? just fixing the hole in the side of the ship wasn't really repairing. ”

Francis hurriedly smiled and waved his hand: "Ah, how is this possible? Everyone knows in their hearts that this is the final battle fleet of the Alliance, and no one will cut corners in their work." ”

“...... What is the final battle fleet, it's like the enemy warships opposite us are all a group of invulnerable cute girls with invincibility against the sky, and our fleet is composed of ordinary Blue Star battleships that can't even penetrate other people's shields, so the unlucky name is quickly changed for me!" "In short, what we rely on is definitely not a Lori-type submarine, but only a powerful air power. ”

"I don't understand it, but I feel like it's amazing. Francis in the crystal ball said excitedly, "Your Majesty." Please be sure to order the production of a cute girl-type battleship!"

This time, even Imrith, who was sitting next to Elicia, couldn't help but slip down a large amount of cold sweat.

"You're enough, you're a ghost animal uncle's sincerity!" If it were face-to-face, Alicia estimated that she would take out a paper fan and rush over and jerk it violently, but now she could only take two deep breaths to calm her crazy mood, "That's the end of the topic about the cute girl battleship, let's get serious to me." Jikrem, you are in charge of the surface ships, and you should have a ledger in mind. How much strength can the current fleet use?"

Jikerem immediately straightened up, and said seriously and loudly, "Back to Her Majesty." Because many officers and men were sacrificed in the last naval battle, and because the additional sailors were recruited, and because the warships were resting and recuperating, the current fleet could only exert about 70 percent of its strength. ”

"Hey, I haven't heard of this kind of thing!" Francis next to him immediately raised his hands in a rather exaggerated pose with a shocked face. "If that's the case, wouldn't it be dangerous in a decisive battle with the Dark Empire?"

"Who made you see only beautiful women in your eyes except for battleships?" Jikrem said fiercely without leaving the slightest affection for his good friends, "You guy, who never cares about the condition of the crew and only leads them to burn together at critical or important moments, I'm afraid you can't even tell how many people there are in the entire fleet, right?"

Sweating profusely, Alicia grinned and slowly raised her right hand: "What, Jikrem." Actually, I don't know ......."

"It doesn't matter. Everyone knows what kind of personality you are. Won't care. Jikerem also hacked his little queen by the way, "Besides, you are the noble queen of the Birea Empire, and these small things can't be paid attention to by you personally, just let our subordinates deal with it." But Francis, as the commander-in-chief of the Alliance fleet who directly oversees everyone, you can't help but say that you don't know. ”

"I'm sorry, please leave me alone. Franciston, who usually has a hangy expression, couldn't help but burst into tears. I almost knelt down and cried to my father and mother, "I'm just sneaking out to pick up girls when the fleet is resting." You won't do this to me in front of Her Majesty...... Yes. ”

"Now, Francis. Alicia smiled and leaned over in front of the large amount of black mist that had gathered around her, and asked through gritted teeth in her sweet voice, "What's it all about sneaking out to pick up girls?" Ellie, I've never been a girl before, so I'm really curious." ”

After trembling and silent for a long time, Francis suddenly showed an expression that the dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, grinned the corners of his mouth, stroked his chin and squinted, "Forget it, Your Majesty." No matter how much you lower your body, there is still a crippled flat under the neckline, and you can't see any benefits. ”

Nearby Jikrem and Dibes were so stunned that they almost wanted to bow down to Francis.

"Sister, sister, don't care, you will definitely grow up there in the future!" Imrith hurriedly hugged the little queen's shoulders before she turned black, "So don't listen to that guy's nonsense, he's definitely a poor breast!"

[Little Ise, please don't continue to pour salt on the wound, okay......]

Alicia lowered her head and wiped it on her breasts, then patted Imrise's hand to signal that she was okay, and then raised her head and said with a speechless expression on her face: "Even if you are dying, you have to tease your sister, even if this girl is your own boss, right?

Dibes hurriedly stepped forward and pleaded: "Please wait a while, Your Majesty! Now that a decisive battle with the Dark Empire is about to start a decisive battle at sea, it is not good to have a strict command of the fleet at this juncture, which may have a negative impact on the army." ”

Jikerem also nodded in agreement: "Dibes is right, I hope you can think twice!"

"You two ......," Francis burst into tears in his eyes.

"Tsk, if Denise and the others see this, I'm afraid they will immediately faint with a nosebleed. Alicia reverted to her usual form of lazily leaning back, and teased, "What a sincere friendship between men and soldiers." Francis, are you going to pick up soap tonight?"

Imrith couldn't help but tilt her head next to her and wondered, "So, what does it mean to pick up soap? ”

"Oh, little Ace. In fact, the so-called picking up soap...... It hurts!"

Elysia, who was about to bite her ear with Imrith and tell her something about [beep--", was quietly slapped a knife on the head by Asami, who gracefully walked out of the void.

The three handsome guys who looked at the pure and immaculate imperial princess with anxious faces who were about to be poisoned by the evil imperial queen suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief, and they all showed reassuring expressions.

After rubbing the swollen bag that didn't exist on her head, Alicia coughed lightly and said, "What, what just now doesn't count, let's continue the topic of Francis's punishment." Now, Francis, I remember that your salary has been deducted almost this year. Where did you get the money to pick up girls? Sure enough, someone from your hometown sent it? In that case, let me become a devil and punish you in the most effective way!"

“...... I heard the Golden Shadow say the other day that you're going to step on that Fair's, is that true?" Francis shuddered for no apparent reason. "In that case, Your Majesty, please stomp on me with your delicate little pink feet!"

Not only the two Harris sisters, Basumi, Jikerem, and Dibes, but even Icarus, who was always in charge of enhancing the signal connection and communication, also had a lot of black lines and cold sweat on his head.

"Sister, sister. You don't have that hobby, do you?" Imrith asked anxiously, looking at her sister with an unusually worried look. "It's absolutely impossible for you, gentle and kind, to do such a thing, those are just other people's delusions!"

"Of course, little Ease. Alicia hugged her sister dotingly and rubbed her cheek and said, "Although I am too gentle and kind, I really don't wear a leotard and step on high heels, a leather whip in my left hand, a candle in my right hand, a rope in my waist, do some [beep--] and [beep-] and [beep-] and [beep-] things to a lewd-looking man, and then get great satisfaction, you can rest assured." ”

"Well, okay. Ace likes her sister the most!" Imrith said sweetly as she rubbed Alicia hard.

No, no, no, you should have been more worried after she had said so much about [beep-] in great detail, right!?Dibis quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead. Looking at the scene of the two sisters embracing warmly in front of him, he decisively decided not to say it - otherwise Alicia would definitely order Icarus to rush over and kill her as quickly as possible.

Dibes was right. Because Imrise's cuteness still hasn't been able to undo her decision to punish Francis. I saw that the little queen gently pushed away her precious sister, and then looked at the crystal ball with a serious face and said: "Lying on the golden palace of the palace and letting me stomp on it, not only can I avoid substantial punishment but also have the opportunity to peek at my fat time, you think it is quite beautiful! But let me tell you, it's not that simple! Since you still have money to take your sister, then instead of wasting the money in the land of fireworks, it is better to use it for national defense construction." Francis, I order you to pay a fine of ten thousand gold coins within three days!"

"What about your robbery!?" Francis, who was so mad by the little queen's blow to the bottom of the kettle that he forgot to use the honorific, "That's my money for nearly a year, okay!?"

"That's right, if you keep doing this, you're going to work for me for the rest of your life?" said Alicia, holding out her little thumb and plucking her ears with an uneducated look, "What a tragic fate." ”

After Francis, who was gray and white, fell into the corner and burst into tears, the black-hearted beautiful boss who had fiercely exploited his subordinate employees set her eyes on Dibes. The handsome young blue-haired guy suddenly trembled, and he almost couldn't help but turn around and run away.

"That...... Your Majesty, do you have any orders?"

Fortunately, Alicia didn't mean to continue to embarrass her subordinates, she blew the little thumb that plucked her ears just now, and said slowly: "Dibes, the sea area explored by the expeditionary fleet during the winter vacation has been drawn on the chart, right?"

Dibes, who was secretly relieved, hurriedly replied seriously: "Yes, Your Majesty. Although it is far from complete for the entire ocean. But at least the general situation of the sea near the western continent side has been basically explored. With this, the fleet will be much less affected by hurricanes when passing. ”

The beautiful blonde girl nodded with satisfaction, "Very well, Dibes." You and your people have worked hard. Say hello to everyone for me. Next up is Jikrem. ”

"Yes!"

"When exactly will the fleet be dispatched?"

Without pause, the Admiral replied: "Tomorrow they will all set sail, and they can be engaged in a decisive battle at any time!"

Unexpectedly, Alicia frowned slightly, waved her hand and said, "No, no, it's too urgent." The newly replenished crew needs to be adapted and trained to the battleship, and the initiative to attack is in our hands, so there is no need to be so frizzy. Jikrem, you first lead the fleet to drill near the base in Wailing Bay. Do not enter the waters of the Dark Empire. I've got a chart of the many islands that make up the oversized magic circle provided by Randy, and you can work with Debes to scout them while you train your troops. ”

Randy was definitely a nightmare existence for the Alliance Navy, and Jikerem couldn't help but ask cautiously, "Your Majesty." Is that guy trustworthy?"

"Of course it's not worth it, even if he's already made Sister Yura's belly bigger, I'm not going to believe him. "But even if he wants to play any tricks, the information he provides at this stage to gain our trust will be true." Don't go too deep when you infiltrate the scouting sabotage. At least not until the opponent's main fleet is crushed. All strategies must be carried out with sufficient strength. When we dethroned the Dark Empire's navy, Randy was useless no matter how powerful he was. At that time, I won't care if you drive the battleship sideways. ”

Jikrem nodded vigorously in understanding: "I see, do your will." But Your Majesty, when exactly do you plan to send your fleet to the enemy? Many people in the military headquarters can't wait. ”

"Let them wait!" said Alicia angrily, "I don't even have the patience for that, so how can I wait for those girls who are deliberately late to test the boys?" ”

Francis, who thought he would disappear, re-entered the camera: "I see. Your Majesty, are you waiting for the completion of the fourth air battleship? Anyway, according to the original plan, it should have been completed, so why did it take a month?"

"Ahh That's because I ordered it to be remodeled. Alicia replied nonchalantly, "Because a genius goblin researcher was frightened during the recent attack and had the inspiration to solve some problems in an alternative way, as a result, I had high hopes that the strategic weapon would be able to be put into trial production on a small scale, so I made some temporary adjustments to the plan." ”

The three soldiers immediately showed a strong expression of curiosity, but unfortunately the little queen didn't plan to say more, but lowered her head with a red face and pinched the edge of her skirt and said coquettishly: "Don't stare like this, people will be shy." ”

The handsome guys who were cute and bloodied were so hung up and pumped on the spot.

"Uh, okay. In that case, don't ask, anyway, you'll find out when the time comes. Francis took a deep breath and cleared his breath, "All in all, our immediate task is to lead the fleet to Wailing Bay for training, so that the recruits can adapt to the battleship and hurricane as quickly as possible, so as to prepare for the next decisive battle." Wait until the modified air battleship arrives at the base with the mysterious weapon you call it, and then the official decisive battle begins, right?"

"That's basically it. Alicia cheerfully admitted, "Is there anything else you have to report?"

The three of them glanced at each other and shook their heads in unison.

"Alright, that's it. Have a nice weekend to all of you, gentlemen. The little queen said as she cut off the communication.

Imrith next to her was also very interested in that kind of weapon, and she couldn't help but lean forward with a face full of desire, and the cute expression made Alicia reach out and gently pinch her cheek twice.

"Just ask, little girl. Alicia laughed and ruffled her sister's hair, causing her to let out a grief of grievance, "But if you don't say it, I know, in fact, you have seen that weapon." ”

"Miwoo——!?" Imrith instantly fell into a small state of confusion, "How is it possible, has Ez seen it before?"

"Remember a science fiction movie I watched you earlier about how the Blue Star people used fighter jets to blow up alien flying saucers, and the weapons in it ......"

Imrith's eyes immediately widened: "Sister, could it be that you have made a flying saucer out!?"

"While my Evil Eye does seem to have a kind of SF look, that's not a reason for me to casually cheat on my weapons and equipment, right?" said Alicia, covering her face and laughing, "Or what, do you want that Evil Eye to look at the silver-white flying saucer made by the Technology Development Department and hold up a banner and announce that it is actually a situation where their compatriots living on aliens now kindly provide the blueprints?"

"Sister, sister, how does this situation feel a bit like ......?"

"Sticks, everybody knows. (To be continued......)
