Elder brother's garrison

The evening passed.

The moonlight deepened.

Even at night, Pei City remains brightly lit, and the number of tourists on the streets has increased rather than decreased. The entire city is like a lantern lit in the dark, emitting a hazy light on the sea.

Rows of lights hung high on the dock of the fishing port, and the port was crowded with tourists. Tourists lit their lights and rushed to board the fishing boats. One after another, the fully loaded fishing boats sailed out of the sea amidst the noise of the night, moving their huge bodies slowly towards the sea in front of them.

The tourists were like adventurous travelers, holding various photography equipment, their eyes fixed on the distant sea, their faces beaming with excitement.

As the fishing boats sailed away, at the other end of the fishing port, in a dark corner of the sea untouched by the light, three figures, unnoticed by the tourists, slipped out of the port under the cover of night and swiftly disappeared into the endless darkness.

"That's really ruthless. Setting sail at night with such bright lights on, if there really were deep-sea amphibious ships, they would be the first to attack you."

One of the three figures glanced back at the brightly lit fishing boats in the harbor and muttered something under his breath with obvious disdain.

Chapter 2315 Child, Mommy Wants to Go Home

The three who set out under the cover of night were naturally Xiaobai and her two ship girls.

This afternoon, after talking with Yu Gan, Xiao Bai felt that he still needed to see with his own eyes the sea area where the Deep Sea Dean once appeared.

The prerequisite for achieving this goal is to go to sea.

Xiao Bai originally planned to travel by boat. However, according to Yu Gan, nine and a half out of ten fishermen in Peicheng Fishing Port who claimed to be deep-sea exploration vessels were unreliable. If he tried to hitch a ride on those so-called deep-sea exploration vessels, he would not only fail to find any trace of the Deep Sea Explorer, but he would probably even have difficulty getting close to the waters where the Deep Sea Explorer had been.

After much deliberation, Xiaobai finally decided to go to the sea with the ship girls under the cover of night.

I have to say, ship equipment is indeed very useful.

Using their size advantage, Xiaobai and his two companions slipped through the shadows of the ships.

After Xiaobai and the ship girls left, large numbers of ships illuminated the dark waters outside the fishing port amidst the noise of tourists.

The sea area that Yu Gan pointed out to Xiao Bai was just outside the fishing port. Geographically, it was still within safe waters, but it was still several hours' walk from the dock. Under the deepening night, Xiao Bai and the ship girls, relying on the high speed of their ship equipment, reached their destination in just one hour.

On the sea where they were heading at night, a dozen or so brightly lit boats drifted scattered about. The sailors on these boats moved in unison, demonstrating their excellent training. Under their operation, the dozen or so pale white searchlights of several boats intersected, forming a dense net across the sea.

Xiaobai and the ship girls stopped at the edge of the searchlight's range, gazing at the ships not far away.

"Wow...didn't they say that the fishing boats at the dock wouldn't come near this area?" York asked, his eyes wide with surprise.

“Look closely, those aren’t fishing boats.” Baltimore examined the ships in the distance and said to York, “The crew on these ships are all proper sailors, not a single one dressed as a tourist. I guess these ships must be the group that Miss Yu Gan mentioned came to find the Dean of the Deep Sea.”

"That's really going all out..." York sighed, looking at Little White with some helplessness. "Then, Admiral, what do we do now? This area in front of us is full of searchlights. If we go into this area to look for the Deep Sea Dean, we'll probably be spotted without even realizing it."

“It’s alright.” Xiaobai stroked his chin, thought for a moment, and smiled at York and Baltimore. “I have a way.”

"any solution?"

"If we can't afford to mess with them, can't we at least avoid them?" Xiaobai searched the sea for a while, then pointed to a secluded spot in the distance that wasn't covered by ships. "Let's go there and wait for a bit."

The place Xiaobai pointed to was far from the area where the Deep Sea Academy had been active, and therefore had little search value, so no ships were stationed there.

Xiaobai and the ship girls bypassed the ships and arrived at a remote sea area.

The remote sea area was almost dark, with the only light source being the moonlit surface of the sea. York and Baltimore stood on tiptoe and looked around for a long time, but they did not find any objects on the sea that showed signs of deep-sea activity.

"Admiral, it seems we're getting further and further away from our destination," York reminded Xiaobai.

“It’s alright, this distance is enough.” Facing York’s reminder, Xiaobai showed no sign of frustration. She nodded confidently and said mysteriously, “Actually, I never planned to go into that sea area. My initial goal was just to bring that sea area under my control.”

"Huh? Range, what range?" York and Baltimore looked over curiously.

“The scope of the Admiral’s network,” Xiaobai said, smiling at York and Baltimore. “Hmm… I’ll demonstrate for you. Please wait a moment.”

Done.

Before York and Baltimore could reply, Little White closed his eyes.

……

Xiao Bai's consciousness rapidly sank into the spiritual world, returning to the gate of the Deep Sea Will's villa.

"Deep Sea Will!" Little White excitedly pushed open the villa's door, ran into the living room, and shouted with an uncontrollable smile, "I've come to ask you for help!"

Xiao Bai searched the living room several times before finally finding the figure of Deep Sea Will on the bedroom wall.

Deep Sea Will is leaning against the armrest of the sofa, lying quietly on it. She is holding an open comic book in front of her face, seemingly studying it intently.

Xiao Bai blinked and stared at the Deep Sea Will on the sofa for a while, then slowly walked to her side.

The black robe worn by Deep Sea Will was somewhat loose. When she lay on the sofa, her long, white, jade-like legs were slightly bent and naturally crossed, exposed to Xiaobai's eyes.

Deep Sea Will's legs are really beautiful—snow-white, long, and perfectly shaped, exuding a unique charm that lies between a youthful girl and a mature, sophisticated woman.

Xiao Bai sat on the sofa at the end where Deep Sea Will's legs were, placed one hand on Deep Sea Will's knee, and gently pressed the back of her knee with her index and middle fingers.

The Deep Sea Will's legs trembled, then clamped down, trapping Little White's hand.

The Will of the Deep Sea lowered the comic book slightly, revealing a pair of eyes behind it as it looked at Xiaobai.

The eyes of the Deep Sea Will were filled with a speechless expression, as if it were staring at a pervert.

"Ha, haha..." Little White reluctantly withdrew his hand and scratched his head. "Deep Sea Will, why didn't you talk to me just now?"

"I'm reading comics." Deep Sea Will held the comic book, glancing to the side.

"The will of the deep sea, on the other side of the real world..."

"Yes, I know." Before Xiaobai could finish speaking, the Will of the Deep Sea spoke softly, its voice indifferent and obedient.

Seeing the reaction of the Deep Sea Will, Xiaobai was stunned for a moment.

Huh?

Why does Deep Sea Will seem about three times cuter than usual today?

The last time Xiaobai returned to the spiritual world, it coincided with the time when the Deep Sea Will was beaten into a state of depression by Frederick the Great and locked herself in a dark room. Later, under Xiaobai's maternal guidance, the Deep Sea Will finally resolved her inner conflict and entered a docile and tranquil girl state, a rare occurrence in five hundred years. She even took a bath with Xiaobai, had a heart-to-heart talk, took a walk, and incidentally subdued a sheathed treasure sword.

At that time, the Deep Sea Will was a hundred times cuter than usual.

Of course.

While the soft and cute phase of the Deep Sea Will is wonderful, the only drawback is that it only lasts for one day.

Xiao Bai thought that when she saw the Deep Sea Will again, she would revert to her usual cold demeanor, but when she returned this time, she felt that things were not so simple.

While the Deep Sea Will has indeed returned to its original form from its soft and cute phase, it doesn't seem to have completely reverted back.

like……

seem……

Are you feeling closer to yourself than before?

Xiao Bai stared at the long, snow-white legs in front of her, lost in thought.

Deep Sea Will would never have acted so languidly in front of me before. Every time I came to see her, although she was always wearing this black robe, she always tried her best to dress like an ice queen.

"You're looking for those two Deep Sea Deans, right?" Just as Xiaobai was thinking, the voice of the Deep Sea Will came over.

"Huh? Hmm." Little White responded subconsciously, looking at the Will of the Deep Sea.

The Will of the Deep Sea freed one hand, holding a circle of special effects light resembling radar, and then gently tossed it toward Little White.

The radar effect transformed into a streak of light in mid-air, then entered Xiaobai's head through his brow.

Before Xiaobai could react, a detailed map of the sea area unfolded in his mind.

“When you just came in, I used your physical body in the real world to scan the surrounding sea area with my mental energy.” The Will of the Deep Sea rolled over, continuing to look at the comic book in its hands, its legs tucking further into its black robe. “That’s why I didn’t have time to reply to you when you came in.”

"Oh! I see!" Little White smiled. "Thank you, Will of the Deep Sea!"

"Ah."

Xiao Bai scratched his head, glanced around the living room, and then saw the Deep Sea Killer hanging on the wall.

"Ah, the Deep Sea Killer is still hanging there?" Xiao Bai asked, as if she had found a topic to talk about. "Has it been behaving itself since I haven't entered the mental world?"

“It’s been very well-behaved. It hasn’t made a sound since you hung it there,” the Deep Sea Will replied. “However, when Little Red was cleaning the room, she tried to clean the dust off its scabbard, but it refused with its sharp sword energy and buzzing sound, just like always.”

"Oh? Is Xiaohong injured?"

"That's not there."

"That's good..." Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief, then looked around the living room. "Huh? Speaking of which, where's Xiaohong?"

"She went shopping in Dafeng Village."

"Oh……"

"..."

"Deep Sea Will, let's talk about something."

"what's up?"

“Ever since you sent me out of the spiritual world last time, I’ve wanted to come and see you whenever I have free time, but you always won’t let me in,” Xiaobai said to the Will of the Deep Sea. “If it weren’t for the important business I have to take care of this time, would you still not have let me in?”

"..."

"I have a share in the spiritual world, you know, so you have to let me come back whenever I want..." Xiaobai said with a smile, as she tentatively approached the Deep Sea Will. She straddled the Deep Sea Will's legs and climbed onto the sofa beneath her. "Or is it that you're actually shy about seeing me because of what happened last time... um!"

Before Xiaobai could finish speaking, her face was pushed away by the Deep Sea Will using a comic book.

Chapter 2316 Red Particles

real world.

After Little White closed his eyes, York and Baltimore could clearly feel that Little White seemed to have turned into an empty shell in an instant.

It's that feeling where you're still breathing and all your bodily functions are working normally, but it's as if your soul has vanished.

"Admiral? Hello? Admiral—" York bent down and gently waved his hand in front of Xiaobai's cheek, "Admiral, are you still there?"

"Is this state what people commonly call 'entering a meditative state'?" Baltimore, stroking his chin, looked at Xiaobai with curiosity. "Is it that feeling of temporarily forgetting everything else and immersing yourself in a certain meditative state?"

"Huh? How could there be..."

York was only halfway through her sentence when suddenly, "Little White" standing in front of her opened its eyes.

The dark golden pupils shimmered with golden light in the darkness.

Then, a vast spiritual force, as boundless as the ocean, burst forth from "Little White's" body. In the blink of an eye, this terrifying spiritual force, though seemingly weak, intertwined and spread out in all directions like a net.

Before York could finish speaking, he was forced to sit on the water's surface without any resistance under the powerful mental pressure. Baltimore, standing beside him, also staggered a couple of steps before falling sideways onto the water's surface.

York and Baltimore stared blankly at the little white creature in front of them.

"Eh?"

"Was that... the Admiral's Admiral Network?"

"Is it... is it going all out? It feels so much stronger than usual..."

York and Baltimore remained seated on the water, staring blankly at the little white creature, which stood motionless on the surface like a statue, for a long while. Their eyes widened in astonishment, and for a moment they were at a loss for what to do.

About two minutes passed.

Finally, the statue-like Little White moved.

A lively expression appeared in Xiaobai's pupils, and under the gaze of York and Baltimore, Xiaobai's soul seemed to have appeared out of nowhere and returned to his body.

"Hiss..." Little White, her soul returning to its place, shuddered. She rubbed her face and muttered, "Really, why did she send me out halfway through her sentence again... I definitely have to treat her better next time..."

Out of the corner of his eye, Xiaobai quickly noticed York and Baltimore sitting on the water.

"Huh? York? Baltimore? Why are you sitting on the water?" Xiaobai looked at the two ship girls in surprise and quickly reached out to pull them up. "Come on, get up quickly, your butts will get wet!"

"Admiral, what you just did was..."

"Huh? Me? Oh... that's just a little bit of the Admiral's Network usage technique." Xiaobai smiled at the two ship girls, "The underlying principle is a bit difficult to explain, but in short, I just used the Admiral's Network to scan this area of ​​the sea."

"scanning……"

Baltimore and York were pulled to their feet by Xiaobai. They looked at each other and gave a wry smile.

Scanned the entire sea area... The admiral really dares to say that.

Even if the Admiral Network possessed such a scanning function, how could it possibly be possible with human mental strength...?

Oh yes.

It seems our own admiral isn't really human to begin with.

That's fine.

York and Baltimore felt instantly relieved.
