Elder brother's garrison

Finished.

The Will of the Deep Sea raised its finger and gently tapped the submarine's transparent helmet.

A wisp of spiritual energy, brimming with information, burrowed into the helmet, like a small fish entering the submarine's forehead.

The struggling submarine suddenly stopped.

The next moment, the submarine's body suddenly began to convulse, and she showed an extremely painful expression, her struggles becoming more and more intense.

The Will of the Deep Sea frowned, released her hand, and withdrew her palm.

Inside the seawater bubbles, the submarine painfully broke free of its seawater shackles, clutching its own body and writhing in agony as it struggled and tumbled within the bubbles.

Then, a strange scene happened.

Under the watchful gaze of the Deep Sea Will, the humanoid submarine imprisoned in the sea suddenly had its transparent helmet shatter. Then, octopus-like tentacles appeared out of nowhere from behind her, quickly wrapping around her limbs and pulling her in a certain direction.

The transparent seawater bubbles became chaotic and unknown in that instant.

The next moment, the seawater bubbles returned to their clear state.

But to the surprise of both the Deep Sea Will and the pursuers kneeling beside it, once they returned to the clear seawater bubbles... the deep-sea submarine that had just been wearing a black and purple bodysuit, with slender limbs and an angry and lively expression, vanished into thin air.

Correct.

She... disappeared.

It was as if it had never existed.

Looking at the crystal-clear seawater bubbles, the Deep Sea Will thought for a moment, then raised her hand and gently waved it.

The seawater bubbles instantly transformed into countless small spheres, floating around the Will of the Deep Sea.

After scanning countless small balls, the expression in the eyes of the Deep Sea Will relaxed slightly before it closed its eyes.

Wow————

Countless small seawater balls landed on the land-based ship's equipment and turned into seawater.

The land-based ship equipment that had been lifted into the air was slowly lowered back onto the water.

The cold aura emanating from Xiao Bai seemed to shrink back, slowly dissipating, and was replaced by a warmth and gentleness that was all too familiar to the pursuers.

Xiaobai opened her eyes again, looked down at her hands covered in seawater, and looked blankly at them.

"Admiral...?" The pursuer sat to the side, calling out cautiously.

"..." Xiaobai turned her head, looked at the pursuer, and gave her a gentle smile, "What's wrong?"

"Ah! Admiral!" The pursuer finally breathed a sigh of relief. She quickly rushed forward and hugged Xiaobai's leg. "Admiral, you're back!"

"I haven't left at all."

"Waaah, the admiral was so scary just now, like he became a completely different person." The pursuer hugged Xiaobai's leg, rubbing against it repeatedly as if doing so gave him a sense of security, and hurriedly said, "I, I was so scared just now..."

Chapter 3614 The Vanished Submarine

As the saying goes, you don't know how good something is until you lose it.

After experiencing the unfamiliar admiral who seemed to have changed his personality and whose coldness was extremely chilling, the pursuer immediately felt as if she had returned home when she saw the familiar gentle expression blooming on Xiaobai's face again. She hugged Xiaobai's lower body tightly with both arms and clung to him, refusing to let go.

Waaah, this admiral is still the best.

It's warm and cozy, and the little admiral is the best.

The pursuer kept rubbing against Little White's belly, feeling the softness and warmth through the thin layers of clothing, and felt a great sense of security.

Xiaobai felt a little embarrassed by the pursuer's affectionate behavior. She was too embarrassed to push him away, so she could only symbolically rub his head.

The pursuer naturally and obediently allowed Xiaobai's palm to stroke her head back and forth.

So the pursuer and I were actually this close... Xiaobai hadn't realized it before.

Xiao Bai sighed inwardly, then looked away and surveyed the surrounding sea.

After the actions of the Deep Sea Will, the sea surface where Xiaobai and the pursuers are now has been turned upside down and is now completely quiet. Apart from the howling, cold sea wind that keeps whipping up the waves, Xiaobai can no longer sense any life in this area.

Xiao Bai seemed to be deep in thought.

Just now, when the Deep Sea Will was acting as Xiao Bai's body, Xiao Bai was also hiding in the spiritual world, watching what was happening in the outside world.

Xiao Bai also saw the appearance of the submarine enemy through the Deep Sea Will, and knew that the submarine enemy did not actually emit any deep sea aura.

so……

It turns out that the submarine enemy that has been causing unrest in the entire 8-2 sea area these past two days is not the so-called Deep Sea Dean, or even a deep-sea creature, but a little girl with a complete human form.

And if he and the Deep Sea Will were not mistaken... after the submarine girl accepted his mental power, her body underwent some kind of mutation. Suddenly, she was pulled to a certain place by several things that looked like octopus tentacles, and then she disappeared.

Correct.

Disappeared.

Xiao Bai silently watched the seawater scattered on the ground of the land-based ship, and then carefully used the admiral's network to sense the surrounding sea surface before confirming that the little girl from the submarine had completely disappeared from this area of ​​water.

Did she run away?

To be able to slip away from the seawater bubbles created by the will of the deep sea is truly remarkable.

However, judging from the way she was just dragged away by the octopus tentacles, there seemed to be some forced emotion mixed in with her face. If this was an escape, then the way she escaped was too strange.

Xiao Bai pondered for a long time, but found himself with no ideas.

Just as Xiaobai was organizing the information, the pursuer finally calmed down. She reluctantly let go of Xiaobai's waist and looked up at her pitifully.

"Chaser, are you done?" Xiaobai noticed the chaser's movements, lowered her head, and smiled at him.

"Um... Admiral, I, I'm all better..." The pursuer nodded timidly. She looked around at the water, quickly stood up, and cautiously looked at Little White, "Admiral, what was your condition just now..."

"That's my transformed form." Xiaobai put her hands on her hips, as if she had been prepared all along, and said to the pursuers with a smile.

"Transform...transform??" The pursuer looked bewildered.

“Yes.” Xiaobai nodded matter-of-factly.

"..." The pursuer stared blankly at Xiaobai, mouth agape. She suddenly recalled how Xiaobai had controlled a large expanse of deep-sea water with a mere wave of her hand, her actions resembling those of a sea demon. Her expression turned strange. "So...so...was the admiral from just now also an admiral?"

"Don't talk nonsense when you get home." Xiaobai smiled and made a shushing gesture to the pursuers.

"...!" The pursuer nodded hurriedly. Suddenly, as if realizing something, she took two steps forward and asked Shiro with bright eyes, "Admiral, so, was that form we were in just now a secret between us?"

"Hmm... I guess so?"

"Wow! A secret!" The pursuers suddenly became excited.

"It's not just you who knows. Actually, there are other people in the naval base who know too, just not many." Xiaobai dodged the question, managing to fool the pursuer. "Instead of my business, let's get back to the important matter... You saw the true form of that mysterious submarine just now, right?"

Upon hearing the word "submarine," the pursuer remembered the reason she had been working overtime this time.

no way.

Compared to something as trivial as submarines, the changes brought about by the admiral's remarkable abilities are far more shocking to the pursuers.

Seeing that the topic was gradually returning to the submarine, the pursuer immediately calmed down and nodded hurriedly.

"Yes, yes, Admiral. That submarine just now didn't seem to be an Abyssal Fleet."

"You think so too, right?"

“After all, I’m a ship girl… I’m quite sensitive to whether the enemy is an Abyssal vessel.” The Chaser said, her gaze sweeping across the surrounding sea. “The way that submarine disappeared just now was strange… It felt like it escaped, or maybe it was captured. Anyway… there’s no trace of it around here now.”

"It's alright that she disappeared from the human world." After thinking for a while, Xiaobai asked the pursuers, "How about we try to find her?"

How do I find it?

"The old way, let's find a spot in the sea and blast fish," Xiaobai said.

When the pursuer heard about the fried fish, her heart skipped a beat, and she nervously clutched her chest.

"Admiral... do you think... there isn't another submarine in this area that's so good at dodging?"

Seeing the pursuer's expression of utter lack of confidence, timidity, and even fear and apprehension, Xiaobai couldn't help but smile wryly.

Well, it seems the pursuers have been traumatized by that little submarine.

"It's alright, Chaser. If anything goes wrong, I'll be there to protect you." Little White patted Chaser's arm and comforted him. "Remember? I said it from the beginning, I'm responsible for protecting your safety, so just relax and go ahead and blast the fish."

"Oh oh oh..."

Upon hearing Xiaobai's words that she would protect her safety, the pursuers immediately felt reassured.

Indeed, after all that had just happened, the pursuers felt that there was no safer place in the world than by their own admiral's side.

With Xiaobai's assurance, the pursuer, relying on the professional skills he had cultivated over many years of training, quickly regained his good mindset for frying fish.

Given that the area where the two were located had been completely ransacked by the Deep Sea Will, it was impossible to fish there anytime soon. So, Xiaobai and the Chaser moved to several other areas of the sea and fished for a few hours.

The Chaser's efficiency in blasting fish was even higher than that of an entire anti-submarine ship girl squadron from other naval bases. In just a few hours, the deep-sea metal she blasted was enough to form a pile of stones more than half a person high on the land-based ship equipment.

In terms of supplies, Xiaobai and the chasers had a very fruitful trip to sea tonight.

However, during this fishing trip, as the night gradually faded and the distant horizon began to lighten, the mysterious little submarine never reappeared.

Xiao Bai and the pursuer could only return to Chapter City each carrying a large pile of deep-sea metal.

Inside the office of the Admiral's Guild's main hall.

Iowa was brewing hot coffee when she heard the office door open. She immediately smiled and looked towards the doorway.

"Admiral, and Sister Chaser, you're back."

At the office door, Xiaobai and his pursuer entered, looking travel-worn and smelling of the sea and the cold air.

"Iowa, we're back."

As Xiaobai rubbed her little hands together, she quickly jumped onto the office chair. Feeling the comfortable temperature in the office and the steaming coffee on the desk, she couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

"Ah, home is still the best."

Xiao Bai sighed and picked up his coffee cup to take small sips.

Behind Xiaobai, the pursuer looked at the office decor with curiosity. She exchanged a few glances with Yi Ahua, who was smiling, and subconsciously glanced at the back of her hand, lingering for a moment on her smooth ring finger.

"Hey... there's even a governor's office here," the pursuer muttered.

"This is the Admiral's Guild of Chapter Eight. To be precise, this isn't the Admiral's office, but the Guild Master's office." Iowa pulled out a hot towel from the side and, smiling, placed it on the pursuer's hands.

"Wow, it's so hot!" The pursuer wiped the back of his hands with a hot towel, his eyes still fixed on Iowa, full of doubt. "Speaking of which, Sister Iowa, did you know I would be coming here beforehand?"

"After all, the Admiral did discuss it with me before going to pick up Sister Chaser," Iowa said casually. She pushed over a chair, smiled, and gently pressed Sister Chaser's shoulder down, helping her sit down. "Sister Chaser, you've worked hard tonight, so please get some rest."

"Oh hoo..."

The pursuer enjoyed the hot towel, the warm chair, and the comfort of Iowa's gentle shoulder massage. She felt a sense of physical relaxation and a feeling of her soul leaving her body.

"Thank you... Sister Iahua..."

"You're welcome," Iowa said with a smile, turning to look at Shiro, who was drinking coffee. "Speaking of which, the Admiral is a little late today. Did something happen at sea?"

Chapter 3615 This is the speed of the world's number one admiral guild!

"As expected of you, you noticed before I even started talking." Xiaobai smiled, holding her coffee cup. She put down the cup, nodded to Iowa, and said, "Yes, we finally found the submarine that was causing trouble in the 8-2 area today."

"I actually ran into him."

"Yes, thanks to the pursuers, I finally understand the principle behind the appearance of that submarine enemy."

What is the principle behind it?

"That enemy submarine will only attack ship girls who are still blasting fish after the night battle."

"……I see."

After listening to Xiaobai's words, Iowa paused for a moment, and finally murmured softly as she released the pursuer's shoulder.

The pursuer lay back in the chair, looking quite content.

Perhaps it was the night of frying fish, or the series of mental shocks that defied common sense, but even as a ship girl, the pursuer felt deeply exhausted. She withdrew her ship equipment and returned to the warm room, where she was received by Iowa and served with high-end massage techniques. Sleepiness came over her like a flood that had been released, and the pursuer quickly fell into a deep sleep, sitting in a chair.

Iowa returned to Xiaobai's side.

“However… since the admiral didn’t bring that enemy submarine back, it proves that this voyage wasn’t entirely smooth sailing, right?” Iowa squatted down, skillfully picked up Xiaobai’s feet, helped her take off her shoes and socks, and then gently massaged the soles of Xiaobai’s feet as she did yesterday, warming up her cold, white feet with her hands.

“Hmm…” Xiaobai sat in the chair and looked down at Iowa’s movements before finally saying, “Although I saw the submarine, I couldn’t catch her; she got away.”

"...Anyone who can escape from the Admiral...even if it's a submarine, their strength must be extraordinary." Iowa paused in her rubbing of her little white feet, then looked up and said, "Could it really be the Deep Sea Dean?"

"No, she is not the deep sea."
