Elder brother's garrison

"……don't want."

"kindness?"

"...No, I don't want to."

Little White raised his head, looked into Ella's eyes, and said loudly.

"No, I won't eat it. I absolutely will not eat it!"

"...Then, can you tell me the reason?" Ella's expression was as kind as ever, but subtly frightening.

"My brother's ship girl wouldn't hurt me."

"Are you telling me I won't hurt you with this body covered in wounds?"

"It will stop at the last moment!"

"So you really are too young, doing such childish things." Ella sighed and sat down on Little White.

Ella's body was very light, and sitting on Xiaobai's lap did not put much burden on Xiaobai.

She pressed her face close to Xiaobai's eyes.

"Some things, once they happen, it's too late to regret them."

Ella gently opened her mouth and then bit the tip of her tongue.

Fresh blood flowed out along the teeth marks.

Then Ella pinched Xiaobai's chin and gently kissed her on the lips.

In an instant, the cool touch on her lips and the metallic taste of blood made Xiaobai involuntarily close her eyes.

With a gulp, Xiaobai swallowed a mouthful of saliva full of blood.

Ella retreated.

"Speaking of which, didn't I say that this capsule is made of a certain material?"

“That’s actually true. Apart from that one material, the other ingredients in the capsule serve to buffer and dilute it.” Ella chuckled. “Because the capsule’s effect is relatively weak, the user needs to guide it with their own will.”

“But if you drink my blood directly, then it has nothing to do with your will,” Ella said.

"From now on, I won't care whether you live or die."

Ella looked at Little White and said softly.

As soon as she finished speaking...

Xiao Bai felt as if something inside her body had shattered at that moment.

I felt like a balloon, instantly inflated.

Then, it seemed as if my brain had exploded in that instant, like a bomb had been detonated.

Chapter 65 Counterattack

Xiaobai actually has a very high tolerance for pain. For some reason, although she can feel pain, she is rarely affected by it.

This is why he could still chat and laugh with a nurse without batting an eye after being stabbed in the back by a thug on the street.

Now Xiaobai can feel a sharp pain coming from inside his body, like a glass being filled and slowly beginning to crack.

Ella's blood seemed to possess a magical power, resonating within her body. Every drop of her blood seemed to tremble and boil, as if it were about to rise into mist at any moment.

The pain was excruciating, like my brain was being torn apart, then healed, then torn apart and healed again, the pain echoing in my head.

Xiao Bai lost control of her body. After being enveloped by this pain, Xiao Bai seemed to have become an out-of-body soul.

Most people would probably just scream in despair at a time like this.

—Oh, they probably can't even scream. Because they've already lost control of their bodies, haven't they?

Having endured so much pain, Xiaobai's mind began to tire rapidly. However, due to her miraculous tolerance for pain, Xiaobai was still able to think even in the darkness.

Was Ella's blood originally the raw material for the psychoactive drug?

...My brother is ten years older than me and used the near-complete potion ten years ago, so Ella must be at least forty years old now.

But Ella doesn't look like someone over twenty.

Moreover, according to Ella and Lexington, this potion seems to have existed for a long time.

It seems that the raw material is more likely to be some kind of human blood than Ella's blood.

...It would be great if I could ask my brother's friend when this medicine was developed.

Perhaps it was because he had been thinking for too long, or perhaps it was because even with patience, enduring pain could lead to fatigue, Xiaobai couldn't help but feel sleepy.

At the same time, it seemed that Xiaobai's mental state also began to affect the effects of the medicine. The pain in her body began to subside slowly, but rose to her head.

Gradually, the feeling of tearing and healing in my brain unconsciously transformed into a dull feeling of being locked up by something.

...For some reason, Xiaobai hated this feeling. Compared to the previous excruciating pain, she hated this feeling of being sealed ten or twenty times more.

In the endless darkness, Little White seemed to grow an invisible hand, reaching deep into the chains.

"Crack".

A crisp snapping sound echoed through Xiaobai's body.

……

An invisible wave erupted from Xiaobai's dormant body.

Ella, who was standing in front of Xiaobai, was knocked to the ground with a thud.

She closed her eyes and covered her ears, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.

"Ah...it's finished so quickly..." Ella couldn't help but let out a short groan, "I was careless..."

Just a moment ago, Ella's admiral network collided with Xiaobai's newly formed admiral network at close range.

Xiao Bai's network was full of vitality and incredibly powerful. In an instant, it broke through Ella's network and spread outwards like a nuclear bomb.

Ella's network of admirals is quite excellent; among many admiral networks, she possesses the power of Primogems.

"Original Stone" refers to the Admiral Network that appears without the use of degraded psychic drugs, but solely through its own opportunities.

This admiral network is more developed and comprehensive, thus possessing higher authority over the control of ship girls.

Ella's authority is suppression. This is a special ability possessed only by Primal Stones.

However, right now, Ella's network was directly disrupted by Xiaobai's newly formed network at close range.

Richelieu, who was not far away, suddenly knelt down on the ground.

The fluctuation disappeared quickly.

Ella let out a soft sigh of relief and stood up from the ground.

"Judging by this strength, it's probably even stronger than mine." Ella walked up to Xiaobai, pinched Xiaobai's chin, and lifted her head.

Little White is already asleep.

Ah, that's exactly what Ella expected.

The Admiral Network is a very difficult thing to use. To give an analogy, it is like a large knife in a baby's hand. It is very tiring to swing. Even if it is only for a few seconds, it will instantly exhaust all the owner's stamina if left unchecked.

“Although the original admiral network is the most primitive, it doesn’t mean that the admiral network that comes later cannot reach this level.” Ella murmured to herself softly, “Little girl, you are the second most perfect creation that has passed through my hands.”

—The last piece of jade to survive in the world.

Ella frowned.

Just now.

The ceiling shattered into pieces with a loud crash.

One piece of rubble and tile after another fell from the sky and landed on the ground not far away.

Ella looked up.

The gap in the ceiling.

Saratoga, surrounded by roaring aircraft, stood on its massive ship rigging, coldly staring at him.

"What are you doing to my admiral?"

Ella looked into Saratoga's eyes.

She would prefer to see blood-red killing intent, dark gold hatred, or something else negative.

Ship girls troubled by this kind of emotion are often very easy to defeat.

Ella's greatest skill is using these negative emotions to defeat both ship girls and humans.

Unfortunately, Saratoga's eyes now only hold a quiet, burning anger, like a blue sun.

This is the last thing Ella wants to see.

This is the most difficult emotion to deal with.

"So it was Xiaobai who called you here?" Ella asked with a smile.

Meanwhile, Ella secretly used the power she had suppressed within her admiral network against Saratoga.

As expected, just like hitting a wall, Ella's admiral network was bounced back hard.

Saratoga seemed to sense Ella's subtle movement, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

In those few seconds, Xiaobai had already found Saratoga through the Admiral's Network and completed the connection.

Under the protection of a network of admirals on par with Ayra, Saratoga is no longer under Ayra's control.

Richelieu ran up to Ella and looked at Saratoga.

She raised her hand, about to summon her battleship equipment.

...A second passed.

...Two seconds passed.

Richelieu looked at his hand with some confusion.

……

"Richelieu?"

"...Admiral, I can no longer use the ship's equipment..."

Ella's eyes widened as she turned to look at the sleeping Little White.

"Boom!"

The loud noise made Ella turn her head again.

Saratoga had already retrieved her ship equipment, clenched her fists, and slowly walked towards him.

"Ah...ah..." Ella took a half step back, forcing a smile as she watched Saratoga slowly approach her. "It seems things are getting a little...bad..."

Chapter 66 Proficiency

In his dream, Xiaobai saw a dazzling starry sky.

On the ink-like curtain, clusters of blue starlight shimmered like a vast ocean.

The starry sky changed constantly according to Xiaobai's thoughts, appearing very dreamlike.

Xiao Bai looked towards one of the stars.

The starlight grew larger and spread as Xiaobai looked at it, eventually becoming blurry.

A string of strange characters appeared.

"Virtue is courageous, and kindness is never afraid."

This is a famous quote from Shakespeare, and I had read his works before.

Xiao Bai thought for a moment, then looked at a starlight to the side.

Another point of starlight gradually spread out along with Xiaobai's gaze, but unlike Xiaobai, this beam of starlight did not change into words.

It was a fog.

"The surgical scar has only healed for a few days, so don't move around too much."

A male voice came from the fog.
