Elder brother's garrison

"Director Chen, is there anything you're not satisfied with about my ship girls?" During a break, Xiaobai couldn't help but ask Director Chen.

Director Chen was slightly taken aback when he heard Xiao Bai's voice, and turned to look at Xiao Bai.

"Ah, boss, you've misunderstood." Director Chen quickly gave Xiaobai an awkward smile. He picked up the form and said to Xiaobai, "I have no problem with your ship girls at all. On the contrary, I think they're amazing. Every single ship girl I interviewed this afternoon has outstanding qualifications..."

"Judging from your expression, you don't seem very satisfied," Xiaobai said.

"Ah." Director Chen was stunned. He looked embarrassed, then smiled at Xiaobai and explained, "No, really no... It's just... like you asked me this afternoon, actually... I just feel that these ship girls are lacking something that can fight against the Deep Sea Dean."

"?" Xiaobai tilted her head slightly.

"That's right." Director Chen thought for a moment and said slowly, "The reason we selected ship girl idols this time is essentially to counter those two Abyss Deans on the internet, right? According to Governor Mu Yu, there is currently widespread praise for those two Abyss Deans on the internet, which is not the situation that the admirals want to see. So, in order to prevent this phenomenon from escalating, they chose to have the ship girls step forward and fight against the Abyss Deans in the guise of ship girls."

"Well...that's true."

"If it's just a regular idol project, then I can confidently tell the leader that there's absolutely nothing to criticize about the hundreds of ship girls we've worked on this afternoon," Director Chen said earnestly. "Each of them has the enormous potential to go far on the path to stardom, but if it's about competing against the Deep Sea Dean, simply becoming famous isn't enough."

"Oh? I hadn't thought of that..." Xiaobai covered her mouth, "How exactly do I do it?"

"Fans' energy is often limited. The essence of our project can be understood as an act of snatching fans away from the Deep Sea Dean," Director Chen said earnestly. "So, the question is obvious: what kind of fans would like the Deep Sea Dean, and what kind of ship girl could steal these fans away from her? The Deep Sea Dean's online popularity isn't just due to her appearance, but also some other unique charm that she revealed by chance. This charm is the secret behind the Deep Sea Dean. To be honest, the interviews this afternoon gave me the impression that those girls were all too warm and too approachable. I found it hard to find any charm in them that could match the Deep Sea Dean's."

Director Chen gestured with his hands over and over, and afterwards he looked apologetic and said to Xiaobai.

"However, this is just my personal feeling... I'm sorry that the leader misunderstood."

"It's alright, it's alright. Hmm... I think I understand what you mean. You want a ship girl who's a bit aloof, right?" Xiaobai nodded with a slight smile. "It's fine. It's already quite late. Why don't we rest during the audition? I'll recommend some ship girls with similar personalities to you tomorrow, and we can continue the auditions, okay?"

"Ah, that would be wonderful..."

Director Chen gave Xiaobai a grateful smile, but his gaze went past Xiaobai and saw the scene behind Xiaobai, and then he suddenly froze.

Behind Xiaobai, on the road outside the square, which was completely blocked by ship girls, a figure slowly walked past.

She was a tall woman.

She had long white hair and wore a tattered black robe. She was barefoot, with heavy chains around her ankles, and her face was covered with thick gauze. In the darkness and under the starlight, she exuded a desolate aura as cold as the bright moon.

That figure was so unique.

It felt like a vast ocean rushing towards me.

Director Chen's mouth dropped open, and his sunglasses fell off his face.

Chapter 2262 The Right Person

With a thud, the sunglasses fell onto the floor tiles.

The judges, who were still engaged in a heated discussion, were drawn by the sound made by Director Chen and turned to look over.

"Director Chen? What's wrong?"

"I...I found it! I found it!" Director Chen jumped to his feet, his whole body trembling as if he had discovered a treasure. He pointed excitedly in the direction behind Xiao Bai, shouting, "I found it!!! It's her!!! She's the perfect choice I've always wanted!!!"

Director Chen's shouts echoed throughout the entire studio.

The excited shouts were as enthusiastic as a traveler in the desert finding water, a fleet adrift at sea discovering a new continent, or someone opening a game to find diamonds and damage control items in their mail.

Xiao Bai curiously looked in the direction Director Chen pointed.

Xiao Bai's gaze fell upon Frederick the Great's departing figure.

"Huh??" Xiaobai was stunned.

"Sir, may I ask what the name of that ship girl in the black robe is?" Director Chen asked eagerly.

“Frederick…”

"Good! Good, Frederick! Boss! That ship girl... no, that lady! It's that lady over there!" Director Chen murmured Frederick the Great's name, nodding several times in satisfaction. Then, he eagerly asked Xiaobai, his face full of longing, "I feel like she's the ship girl we're looking for! Boss! Can you call her over so we can see her? Right now!"

"Uh..." Xiaobai looked embarrassed, "That person... is really a bit..."

"Please!! Boss!!" Director Chen immediately raised his hands, clasped them together in front of Xiaobai, and pleaded with his head down, "No matter what problems she has, please let her in for a checkup!"

Director Chen looked so sincere, he was practically kneeling on the ground.

This was the first time Xiaobai had ever seen such an obvious emotional fluctuation on Director Chen's face. For a moment, Xiaobai felt that even if all the hundreds of ship girls she had interviewed that afternoon were combined, none of them could have caused Director Chen to have such an exaggerated emotional reaction as Frederick the Great.

So Frederick the Great was the kind of "ship girl" Director Chen was looking for...

It was a bit unexpected.

But upon closer reflection, it wasn't particularly unexpected.

The ship girls Director Chen wanted to select this time were those with a certain Abyssal aura; in other words, the more they resembled the Abyssal Dean, the better. If the selection followed this requirement, then a true Abyssal Dean would perfectly meet Director Chen's expectations. Especially someone like Frederick the Great, the ultimate Abyssal Dean, would perfectly hit Director Chen's bullseye.

So only the Deep Sea Dean can defeat the Deep Sea Dean...?

Allowing Frederick the Great to come into contact with ordinary humans carries certain risks. Out of responsibility to the humans in front of him, Xiaobai initially wanted to refuse Director Chen's request. However, seeing that Director Chen was about to kneel down on the spot, and with a group of judges watching him expectantly, Xiaobai was at a loss.

If I just refuse like this, I feel things will become more complicated...

Ok……

Forget it.

Since she was present anyway, and Frederick the Great had been behaving himself lately, letting her see him briefly wouldn't hurt her.

With this in mind, Xiaobai made up her mind.

"Alright, since Director Chen has said so, I'll call her over," Xiaobai said to Director Chen.

"Thank you, leader! Thank you so much, leader!" Director Chen quickly looked up and thanked Xiaobai repeatedly.

Xiao Bai relayed Director Chen's request to Lexington, who was maintaining order outside the venue, through the Admiral Network.

quickly.

Inside the studio, as everyone watched, Lexington ran to Frederick the Great, who was about to leave, took her arm, whispered a few words to her, and then led Frederick the Great toward the studio entrance.

Inside the studio, the judges watched Frederick the Great slowly approach, swallowing hard and fidgeting with unease.

Frederick the Great's intense aura of the deep sea was so pronounced that when she slowly approached the studio under the moonlight, even without making any extra movements, the judges in the studio felt as if they were watching a prehistoric monster walking towards them, and a strange sense of dread arose in their hearts.

If the judges hadn't seen that Frederick the Great was blindfolded and chained, making him seem relatively safe, they would have even considered running away.

In the entire studio, it seemed that only Xiaobai and the excited Director Chen remained unaffected.

at last.

Frederick the Great entered the studio and stood before the judges.

"Are you looking for me?"

When Frederick the Great saw the humans before him and Little White sitting in the center of the group, the half of his face covered by gauze remained expressionless. He simply opened his mouth coldly and spoke softly to Little White.

When Frederick the Great spoke, the judges sat in their seats like chicks, meekly and timidly not daring to utter a sound.

“Yes.” Xiaobai spoke first, smiling as she pointed to Director Chen beside her and introduced him to Frederick the Great, “Frederick, let me introduce you. This is Director Chen, a guest of our garrison. He would like to meet you and ask you a few questions, is that alright?”

"Yes." Frederick the Great nodded.

"Hello! Miss Frederick!" Director Chen's face flushed with excitement. He stood still and stammered as he greeted Frederick the Great.

"..." Frederick the Great turned his face toward Director Chen.

"Excuse me, what are those chains on your feet...?" Director Chen asked.

"personal hobby."

"The gauze on her face..."

(Personal hobby.)

"You seem different from the other ship girls..."

"..."

"Could you please take off your blindfold so we can see what you look like?" Director Chen asked earnestly.

Upon hearing this, Frederick the Great looked at Little White.

Xiao Bai nodded, indicating that there was no problem.

Frederick the Great then raised his hand and slowly untied the gauze behind his head, revealing his true face and opening his blood-red eyes.

Frederick the Great was undeniably beautiful, but his ruthlessness was equally chilling.

The moment the judges saw Frederick the Great's true face, everyone else on the panel held their breath.

"Yes! Absolutely! That's the style!!" Upon seeing Frederick the Great's real appearance, Director Chen excitedly clenched his fist and waved it in the air. He couldn't wait to say to Frederick the Great, "Miss Frederick! You're going to be famous! You're definitely going to be famous!! You'll become a superstar! I'm certain of it!!!"

"..." Frederick the Great did not understand what Director Chen meant. She tilted her head slightly, as if waiting for Xiaobai to translate.

"Alright, alright, thank you Frederick for taking the time out of your busy schedule to come here." Little White waved to Frederick the Great and said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work, you can go back now."

"Okay." Frederick the Great nodded, gently wrapped the gauze around her neck, and turned to leave the studio.

After Frederick the Great disappeared into the studio entrance, everyone on the judging panel inside the studio breathed a sigh of relief.

One of the judges stood up in a panic.

"Director Chen! Would you... recommend that person who just participated in the idol project?"

"Director Chen, I don't think this will work! That type is too terrifying!"

"This type of woman is still too early for humankind!"

"She...she's like a hungry lion! Calm and savage!"

"When she first opened her eyes, I thought she was going to pee on me..."

"I would believe you even if you told me she was Dean Shenhai herself!"

"Director Chen, please reconsider!"

"..."

The judges noticed the appreciation in Director Chen's eyes and quickly stood up to offer their advice.

"Don't you all think that this Miss Frederick is the one we're looking for?" Director Chen asked the judges around him, seemingly puzzled by their advice. "Her deep-sea aura surpasses that of the two in the video! So sharp! So beautiful! I think this kind of beauty truly exists in the world! Can't you accept this aesthetic?"

"Director Chen, no!"

"Director Chen, not everyone has your guts! Most people would be terrified if they didn't pee their pants when they saw someone with that kind of aura!"

"We're just ordinary people!"

Upon hearing Director Chen's words, the judges immediately launched into an even more vehement protest.

Director Chen and the judges immediately began a heated discussion about whether someone with Frederick the Great's temperament was suitable to be a star.

The heated discussion lasted for a while, and finally, everyone's attention turned to Xiaobai.

"Boss, Miss Friedrich is your ship girl, right? Then you explain to everyone! Miss Friedrich isn't such a scary person at all!" Unable to convince the judges for the time being, Director Chen placed his hopes on Xiaobai. He turned to Xiaobai and asked hopefully, "With your level of understanding, Boss, you must be able to understand my point of view, right? She can definitely handle this job!"

In an instant, more than a dozen pairs of eyes fell on Xiaobai's head.

Xiao Bai looked at everyone's gazes and gave an awkward smile.

"Well..." Xiaobai raised her hand and explained to the crowd in front of her, "Frederick the Great is my ship girl, so of course I'm not afraid of her..."

"Look!" Before Xiaobai could finish speaking, Director Chen clapped his hands at the judges with great pride.

“However… although I’m not afraid of Frederick, I have to admit that her appearance and aura are indeed too intimidating for ordinary people…” Xiaobai continued, “Not only humans, but also some of the ship girls in our naval base are not used to her presence.”

"Director Chen, look!" The judges immediately clapped their hands at Director Chen.

"Ah... well, what do you mean, boss?" Director Chen, who had suddenly lost his backer, stared at Xiaobai with wide eyes.

"I agree with the judges; it's definitely a bit too early to make Frederick an idol," Xiaobai said earnestly.

Chapter 2263 Domestication of the Deep-Sea Dean

Xiao Bai's sudden remarks implied that Director Chen should abandon the idea of ​​Frederick the Great, ultimately causing Director Chen to lose his last hope.

After listening to Xiaobai's speech, Director Chen seemed to age several years. He lowered his head, and his voice sounded heavy and dejected.

"Sigh... Am I really the only one who can notice this wild beauty..." Director Chen lowered his head regretfully, muttering to himself.

“Frederick is destined to belong only to a small group of people,” Xiaobai said with a smile, patting Director Chen on the shoulder. “But idols are meant to serve the masses, right?”

Seeing Director Chen's bitter expression, the judges beside him began to comfort him.

"That's true, Director Chen."

"To match the Deep Sea Dean, wildness is certainly important, but everything has its limits..."

"This young lady's wildness is way off the charts; she's more like an Abyssal Fleet than a ship girl..."
