Elder brother's garrison

Just as York was struggling with his decision, a woman's voice came from afar. Then, several white lights flew towards York from a distance and merged into his body.

As the beams of white light shone down, York felt that the protective shield covering his skin seemed to have hardened a little more.

--game.

Is this a game?

A flash of insight struck York, clearing the fog and revealing the truth.

She suddenly began to understand the current situation.

Is this white light shining on me a healing spell?

The protective shield on yourself is your health.

That person is a pastor.

York stared wide-eyed at the longsword in his hand.

This really is a game!

"Fight back!!!" The woman's exasperated voice rang out behind York.

York took deep breaths, his heart pounding faster than ever.

I'm dreaming.

York understood.

I must be dreaming!

Yes! Only a dream can explain this situation.

I must have been too tired lately and wanted to play online games. I was thinking about it day and night, so I dreamed about it and that's why I did this!

Anything can happen in dreams, which explains all sorts of illogical things!

I didn't leave home, nor was I stripped naked, nor was I chased all over the grassland by monsters.

This is just my dream, just a game!

Thinking of this, all of York's negative emotions—the confusion of suddenly being transported to another world, the panic of being chased by cattle and sheep, the despair of not being able to activate his ship equipment—vanished instantly, replaced by an extreme sense of excitement.

Games!

That’s easy!

York does indeed enjoy playing games; one could even say he's addicted.

However, as a ship girl, York's life at the naval base was very busy. She had to set off at dawn every day and work overtime at night. She was always working from dawn till dusk and rarely had time to rest. Her sisters at the naval base were all working hard, and her admiral was also constantly striving. Therefore, York had no time to play games, was too embarrassed to play them, and had no means to play them.

Besides, a computer is very expensive.

York said his salary was low and he couldn't afford it either.

But now it seems I can solve this problem just by dreaming.

York thought to himself, his expression growing increasingly excited.

Wonderful!

Dreaming about playing games!

Isn't it beautiful!

York immediately lost her nerve. After realizing that everything around her was a dream, York felt an exciting fighting spirit burst forth from her body in an instant. In that instant, she didn't care about cows, sheep, or cold weapons. She raised her longsword and swung it at the remaining herd of cattle and sheep in front of her.

"You guys, get hyped!!"

With a loud bang, flames flew everywhere.

Several frenzied cattle and sheep were swept away and engulfed by the vortex of flames, instantly turning into a pile of gleaming coins on the ground.

"That was awesome!" York exclaimed excitedly, then raised his longsword and delivered another blow. "This sword is awesome!"

I'm so sorry, I really feel bad calling you a broken sword!

You're amazing!

As York swung his sword, flames poured out again, scorching the cattle and sheep, causing the monsters to howl in pain.

York held his longsword, and the frustration he had been holding back vanished. The feeling of relief made York feel great from the inside out.

Is this game really that great? Honestly, I'm having an absolute blast right now!

As expected of me, I actually had such a wonderful dream!

At this moment, York felt that her chuunibyou (adolescent delusions of grandeur) spirit could no longer be suppressed. Before the flames in front of her disappeared, she hurriedly took the Fire Social Security and waved it forward again, spouting all sorts of lines.

"Man and sword become one!!"

"The power of the bear!!"

"Dragon Ascension Sword!"

"She-Ra!!"

"My magic will tear you to shreds, hahaha!"

"Monster, look at the sword!"

"Here comes the sword!"

"I, York, have returned to the Land Sword Immortal realm!!!"

"explosion!!"

York felt a great sense of accomplishment as he watched the flames flicker and dance on his weapon.

It's just a dream anyway.

I had such a wonderful dream, it would be a shame not to indulge myself.

York, like a villain, swung his sparking longsword at the beasts lashed by flames.

However, flames did not erupt from the longsword in York's hand again.

Sparks flew like fireworks off the red-hot blade of the longsword called Fire Social Security. As York swung the sword, a faint red light appeared on the blade, as if flames were about to burst forth from it at any moment.

With a "whoosh," the blade of Fire Social Security made a helpless sound, spitting out its last sparks before, in York's eyes, it went limp like a piece of putty, hanging powerlessly toward the ground.

Fire Social Security is tired; it doesn't want to do social security anymore; it just wants to rest.

York remained in an attacking stance, gripping the hilt of his sword, frozen in place.

"What a rip-off! Why did you use any skills like that? You're out of mana!"

The woman's exasperated voice rang out from a distance a moment later.

York was embarrassed.

The beasts seemed to have also realized that Fire's social security had been drained. They raised their blood-red eyes and stared at York with hostile expressions.

The scene fell into an extremely quiet silence.

York, standing in the middle of the field, swallowed hard and began to ponder.

I was so busy having fun that I didn't even realize where I log off in this game...

Boom boom boom——

The herd of beasts surged forth, and the earth shook.

Chapter 821 My stomach feels warm and cozy, it smells like the Admiral.

The sun is rising.

After staying at the Admiral's Guild for several tens of minutes, Xiaobai left the guild alone and headed towards the first node.

Because she was called out to meet President Er Gou this morning, Xiao Bai got up quite early today, but still missed the clock-in time for work.

When Xiaobai arrived at the registration desk at the node entrance, Luo Lian was indeed taking over for her shift again.

Xiao Bai watched from afar as Luo Lian rubbed her face against the table, her heart surging with passion.

This is true friendship!

Xiaobai was deeply moved.

"Lianlian!" Xiaobai walked towards Luo Lian and greeted her.

Luo Lian, who was rubbing her hands on the table, shuddered. She quickly raised her head, straightened her collar, and smiled at Xiao Bai, saying, "Xiao Bai, you're back."

"Oh, I'm sorry I'm late again. Thank you, Lianlian."

"It's nothing. It was just a small favor."

Xiao Bai walked to Luo Lian's side and glanced at the registration form on the table.

The registration form was filled with names.

"Why are there still so many people today?" Xiaobai frowned.

"what happened?"

"Didn't a high-level deep-sea creature appear in this area today?" Xiaobai asked.

When the golden deep-sea amphibious ship appeared, it affected many ship girls. So when the news reached the Admiral's Guild, Guild Master Er Gou could no longer simply pretend that nothing had happened.

The strength of those deep-sea flagships is far beyond what a team of ship girls can handle. Logically speaking, if the admiral here knew about this, he should go back immediately, right?

However, even now, the registration form in front of Luo Lian still contains a large number of records of admirals entering the beach.

"So that's what the guild leader called you over for." Luo Lian smiled. "Yes, there's news about the appearance of the Chapter Seven Abyssal Ships. And it seems that their numbers aren't very small."

"Isn't that very dangerous? Why haven't the people here left yet?"

“Some of them left,” Luo Lian nodded, “but the remaining admirals formed a larger force.”

"what?"

"High-level deep-sea monsters are powerful, but they're actually quite rare to encounter. Most of the time, they don't affect normal expeditions. If you're unlucky enough to run into one, and one squad of ship girls can't handle it, then ten squads will do. Once you have enough people, the small squads will become an army, and you can kill them by throwing stones. Besides, with so many ship girls, even if you really can't win, you can still run away." Luo Lian shrugged. "At most, a few ship girls will get hit by a few bullets and be heavily damaged, but there won't be any real danger."

"...Doesn't that mean we need to repair the ship's equipment?"

"It's just a quick repair, it's not expensive compared to the profits here."

"Oh..." Xiaobai's expression was strange. "I thought everyone here would have left."

"Although people are usually quite timid, they are also very easy to follow the crowd. It is normal to think of leaving as soon as you encounter this situation. However, once someone sets an example and changes the atmosphere with benefits and results, things will develop in two different ways."

"Uh... could that role model be..."

"Your ship girl is on the sea right now. In just half an hour, it seems she has already sunk several high-level deep-sea ships that have been causing trouble for your ship girl. So the morale on the beach is really high now."

"..." Xiao Bai suddenly understood why most of the admirals inside had not chosen to leave.

President Er Gou spent a lot of money hiring his group of bodyguards; well, it's not a bad deal.

Taking advantage of the rare opportunity, Xiao Bai decided to work a full day to make up for the work time he owed Luo Lian. Luo Lian initially didn't mind, but Xiao Bai insisted repeatedly, so Luo Lian had no choice but to leave reluctantly.

The first node wasn't as tense as Xiaobai had expected; in fact, bursts of cheerful cheers could be heard from the beach every now and then.

Xiaobai contacted her ship girls on the sea via the admiral network and shared their perspective to observe the sea.

Occasionally, injured ship girls will leave from the first node, but the number of injured ship girls leaving is not much more than usual. Judging from the data, the first node can still be considered a safe sea area.

When ship girls go on an expedition, no one expects them to be completely unharmed. In reality, as long as the casualties are low, that's enough. As long as the ship girls are mentally prepared, they've long been used to getting beaten up. After all, even the most efficient and safest way to level up by bombing fish can sometimes be sent flying by a single torpedo from a yellow-blooded submarine.

This is the advantage of having more ship girl squads. Although the squad's flexibility and average returns are much lower, the increased number of squads transforms them into legions, resulting in a significant increase in safety.

However, Xiaobai thinks the main reason is that Bismarck and the others are actually going on a rampage on the sea.

Before I knew it, another day had passed.

The admirals, breathing a sigh of relief, led their spirited ship girls away one after another from the first node.

Their harvest today was not much, but after the appearance of high-level deep-sea ships, they and their ship girls still insisted on going on the expedition, which gave them a sense of accomplishment, like plucking hairs off a bandit's head, making these admirals and ship girls extremely satisfied.

Simply put, it's about stimulation.

The admirals who were leaving checked the number of people on the registration form at the registration desk.

At this moment, Nia and Xiaobai's ship girls also came out of the beach.

Bismarck and Xiaobai exchanged a brief glance and a few words of mutual sympathy. Bismarck then took the registration form from Xiaobai and began counting the number of people. Taking advantage of this moment, Xiaobai jumped off the chair, crept up to Missouri in the group, and secretly tugged at her sleeve.

"Missouri... come with me to the sea." Little White said to Missouri in a low voice.
