If you complete stages 1-2 in another month, you'll have the resources for stage 1-2, and your rank will rise to Captain (don't mind, haha), resulting in higher pay and rewards. Keep doing this and you won't have to worry about resources anymore.
But will things go as Yu Shen Haoyu thinks? If Yu Shen Haoyu can control his hands, it might actually be possible. So, can Yu Shen Haoyu control his hands?
Iowa, as Mikami Hiroyu's starting ship, went to the Naval Headquarters to collect the 1-1 reward with her letter of appointment as admiral. Mikami Hiroyu originally wanted to go as well, but considering that it was not yet appropriate for him to deal with the Naval Headquarters, he ultimately sent Iowa, his starting ship, alone.
With Iowa as his starting ship and the name Iowa attached to it, things should go smoothly.
Yu Shen Haoyu had temporarily weathered the resource crisis, but seeing the still-ruins of the garrison, his initial joy at acquiring a large amount of resources slowly faded. He knew his journey was far from over.
My first priority now is to rebuild the naval base, at least the ship girls' dormitories and the bathrooms for entering the canal. It seems Iowa received a building reward among her rewards; Mikami Hiroyu told Iowa to ask the main naval base for a dormitory reward, so there's still the bathroom for entering the canal.
Mikami Hiroyu pondered for a long time but still couldn't figure out how to solve the problem of the bathroom entering the canal. Beside Mikami Hiroyu, Taihou noticed her admiral's furrowed brows, as if he were facing some difficulty.
"Admiral, what are you thinking about?" Taihou asked.
"I'm thinking about your canal access issue."
"But we're not injured! We don't need to go into the canal."
Just because you don't need it now doesn't mean you won't need it in the future. It's better to build the canal access point as soon as possible, otherwise you won't be able to get into the canal if you get injured.
After listening to Mikami Hiroyu's words, Daihou agreed with him. Daihou suddenly thought of her master, who possessed a very mysterious power, and wondered if she could solve the problem.
"Master, don't you still have that miraculous power? Can't you solve this problem?"
"You mean the Little hope card?" Yu Shen Haoyu asked, taking out the Little hope card.
"So Master's magical power is called the Little hope Card!" Taihou said, looking at the playing card that appeared in Mikami Hiroyu's hand.
"Yes, they are my good friends, but you reminded me of something," Yu Shen Haoyu said, holding the Xiao hope card as if he had thought of something.
"?" Taihou looked at Mikami Hiroyu, who seemed to have suddenly figured something out, wondering what she had reminded the admiral of. Had she said something?
Yu Shen Haoyu held the Little Xi card in his hand and asked the card, which was still a playing card, "Can you solve my problem?"
Taiho discovers that what she sees next severely overturns her worldview and understanding of ships.
Dozens of the playing cards placed in the admiral's hand actually flew up and floated in front of him.
Then some of these cards transformed into human figures, some into animal figures, and some into very strange shapes. One card even transformed into a young girl, who immediately appeared and stood beside the admiral.
Chapter Sixty-Six: Garrison Command
This time, the flying cards include the Li card, the small card, the big card, the Xiao card, the Shi card, the Li card, the Dun card, and the Chuang card.
Because Xiao Xi was always concerned about her master's safety, she observed Yu Shen Hao Yu's surroundings and also learned about Yu Shen Hao Yu's current troubles.
The Little hope cards now possess intelligence similar to that of an average person. While they see Mikami Hiroyu troubled by the so-called naval base, they are also contemplating how to use their power to resolve their master's worries.
Having more people doesn't mean having more cards; it means having more power. Three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang, so let's not even talk about having 52 cards here. Cards without cards aren't counted, and as long as they don't cause trouble, that's fine.
Through discussions and questions posed by the Little Hope tarot cards, various methods were proposed and their feasibility was explored. Finally, despite not meeting the cards' expectations, a feasible method was discovered.
Before she could tell Mikami Hiroyu, she was summoned away by him.
When the little hope cards saw their master, they took the initiative to ask about the question they had been discussing not long ago, and stepped forward very voluntarily.
Through their conversation, Yu Shen Haoyu learned about the method that Xiao Xi and the others had just discussed. After listening and thinking about it, Yu Shen Haoyu realized that it was indeed quite feasible.
The eight cards—the Wrathful Card, the Small Card, the Big Card, the Eliminate Card, the Time Card, the Power Card, the Shield Card, and the Creation Card—are key to unlocking the buildings related to the town hall.
The solution proposed by the Little Nozomi characters is that since the naval base was destroyed by the Abyssal Fleet, then all they need to do is prevent them from destroying it further. Afterwards, they can make the Abyssal Fleet members who destroyed the base believe that they have accomplished their goal. Not only the Abyssal Fleet, but also people need to see the damaged naval base in order to avoid distorting history.
These nine cards are the key cards for this method, and none of them can be omitted.
Now that we have a feasible way to place it, let's try it out right away.
"Dafeng, go to sea first. I hope you won't spread what you see."
"Yes, Admiral! Thank you for trusting me. Please rest assured, Admiral, I will not tell anyone what I see without your permission," Taihou said, her face full of gratitude.
"If I believe even you, then who should I believe?"
"Admiral, I will certainly not let you down." Taiho was even more moved.
At this moment, Yu Shen Haoyu discovered a notification in the soul network that his intimacy level with Taihou had reached 91 points.
"By the way, can you contact Iowa through the soul network?"
"If you're contacting Iowa through the soul network, that's possible!"
"Then please convey a message to Iowa for me! That is, cancel the building bonus from the rewards."
"Yes, Admiral, I will pass on the message to her."
"Alright, remember not to be surprised, and don't panic after I disappear, okay? Go to sea after I disappear." Mikami Hiroyu had to give Taihou a heads-up.
"Yes, Admiral, I understand."
"Then I'm leaving."
After Mikami Hiroyu finished speaking, a scene that shocked Taihou unfolded. His admiral had truly vanished. Although the admiral had told him he would disappear and not to be surprised, his actual disappearance still astonished Taihou for a long time. Then, remembering the admiral's instructions, he immediately headed out to sea.
After gaining a foothold on the sea, Taifeng contacted Iowa and relayed the admiral's orders, then eagerly awaited the occurrence of something even more miraculous.
Mikami Hiroyu used the Wrathful Card, which possesses the magic to reverse time, to return to the deep sea and disrupt the Maizuru Town Guardian's Mansion just moments before. This was the first step.
After further confirmation, it was found that there were no ship girls or people in or around the Maizuru Naval Base.
Then he called out all the small cards, big cards, elimination cards, time cards, power cards, shield cards, and creation cards.
"Then let's proceed according to the planned steps!"
All the Little Xi cards nodded. The Little Xi cards' method was to shrink the original Maizuru Garrison before the Deep Sea destroyed it, bring it to the current timeline of Yushin Hiroyu, and have the Creation card create a Maizuru Garrison for the Deep Sea to destroy.
Yu Shen Haoyu first used the Time Card to freeze time at this moment. Yu Shen Haoyu's magic power is currently very strong; using the Time Card can stop time on the entire planet. Then he nodded to the Creation Card, which answered that it was permissible to begin.
Mikami Hiroyu infused the power of Jump and Fly into the Creation Card. After obtaining the power of the Jump and Fly Cards, the Creation Card appeared in all parts of Maizuru Town, diligently recording everything it saw.
Maizuru Naval Base is a large naval base, covering an area the size of a small island. Even with the use of jump cards and flying cards, it still took two hours to observe it completely.
"Did you remember?" asked Mikami Hiroyu.
"Master, it should be almost done, there shouldn't be any problems," Chuangpai replied in his mind.
"Alright, it's up to you now. Oh, and don't touch that construction machine."
Yu Shenhao thought of the construction machine. Since it could withstand the bombardment of the deep sea, there was no need to touch it.
"Yes, Master."
“Little card, it’s your turn to perform now,” said Yu Shenhaoyu, taking out the little card.
The little card player acted cute, indicating that it was no problem, and then began her work.
Xiao Pai's task was simple: to shrink the entire Maizuru Garrison, making it small enough for Mikami Hiroyu to take with him away.
Soon, the Maizuru Naval Base, which was once the size of a small island, slowly shrank to the size of 1 square meter, leaving only a flat ground. Then, Mikami Hiroyu used a shield to protect it. The shield's main function was to protect the shrunken Maizuru Naval Base inside, in order to prevent damage during time travel.
"Now it's time to put on a show of creating something out of nothing. Let's begin creating the card!" Yu Shenhaoyu said calmly.
Souhata didn't say anything, but slowly, buildings identical to the Maizuru Naval Base appeared on the previously flat ground.
Half an hour later, a naval base identical to Maizuru Naval Base appeared. After completing its task, the card transformed into a card and flew into the spellbook to replenish its magic power.
Seeing that the Creation Card had completed its task, Mikami Hiroyu canceled the Time Card's magic. After maintaining its magic for nearly four hours, the Time Card's magic was also somewhat depleted. Like the Creation Card, it immediately turned into a card and flew into the magic book to replenish its magic after Mikami Hiroyu retrieved it.
Shortly after Mikami Hiroyu canceled the magic of the Time Card, the Abyssal Fleet arrived. The sea was filled with Abyssal resentment. The Abyssal Fleet deployed countless destroyers and light cruisers, but there were few high-level Abyssal ships, only a few heavy cruisers of the Ne class.
The deep sea creatures bombarded the Maizuru Naval Base created by the card creators again and again. Looking at the sky full of shells, Mikami Hiroyu calmly said, "Bomb, bomb, it's all fake anyway, it's all just destroying my magic."
This massive bombardment of the deep sea also served as a wake-up call for Mikami Hiroyu. The current power of the deep sea is ridiculously strong. It only took a few heavy cruisers of the Ne class and countless low-level destroyers to achieve this effect. Even if Taihou and Iowa are strong, they cannot withstand such an attack.
I also need ship girls, the stronger the better!
Seeing that there was nothing left to blow up, Shen Hai left. Looking at the ruins, Yu Shen Hao Yu, having achieved his goal, used the Li Pai to return to his own timeline.
Chapter Sixty-Seven: The Shocking Ship Girl
Mikami Hiroyu had Rikipa hold the Maizuru Town Guardian's Mansion, which had been shrunk by the shield, and returned to the original timeline with Rikipa.
After Yu Shen Haoyu returned to his own time and space, before he could even catch his breath, Tai Feng had already rushed over from the sea.
"Admiral, how did you do that? Suddenly disappearing and suddenly reappearing, is this also the power of the Little Nozomi Card you were talking about?" Taihou stared intently at Mikami Hiroyu, her curiosity almost tangible.
"You've said enough. I'll let you experience it later. By the way, hasn't Iowa returned yet?" Yushin Hiroyu simply couldn't resist Taihou's sweet voice and her almost tangible curiosity. He had no choice but to surrender. It wasn't that Yushin Hiroyu wasn't strong-willed, but rather that his opponent was too powerful, and that was what Yushin Hiroyu feared.
Upon hearing Mikami Hiroyu say that she could also experience that mysterious power, Taihou jumped up excitedly, then ran to Mikami Hiroyu and asked in an uncertain tone, "Admiral, you're not lying to me, are you really going to let me experience that mysterious power?"
"It's true, I'm not lying to you. Tell Iowa if she's back yet?" Mikami Hiroyu said helplessly.
"Iowa hasn't returned yet. Admiral, I've been wondering what that girl next to you is dragging in her hand!"
Yu Shen Haoyu revealed a mysterious smile and said, "Why don't you take a look for yourself and see?"
"Can I watch?" Taiho asked in surprise.
"Whether you look or not is up to you. I'll check where Iowa is first," said Misami Hiroyu, closing his eyes as he entered the soul network to contact Iowa.
Seeing that the admiral had his eyes closed, it seemed he really wanted to show them to her, so she wouldn't hold back.
"May I touch it? I haven't asked your name yet," Da Feng said to the weight plate.
"Li" brand has regained her original aloofness.
"Can I call you Riki-chan?"
"Just call me Riki. Only Master can call me Riki-chan."
"You call the Admiral 'Master'?" Taihou asked, pointing to Mikami Hiroyu, who had his eyes closed.
"Are you going to look or not? If my master hadn't told me to be polite, I wouldn't have paid any attention to you."
"I'll see, I'll see, don't be angry!" Da Feng said with a smile.
But Li Pai didn't respond to her anymore, and looked at Yu Shen Haoyu.
Taiho became even more curious. "They call the Admiral 'Master,' and I heard the Master say they're called something like 'Little Xi,' Little Xi brand. Isn't Little Xi the Master's name? Is there any special reason for a brand named after the Master? Also, they seem to respect the Admiral a lot. I can feel their loyalty to the Admiral, even more so than Iowa and I are. I'm getting more and more curious about the Admiral."
Then Taihou looked at the miniature version of Maizuru Naval Base that Rikipa was dragging in his hand. At first, he thought it was a model of the naval base, but the more he looked at it, the more suspicious it seemed.
This naval base model is incredibly detailed! Every part is perfectly made; it's practically a scaled-down version of the naval base. How did the Admiral get his hands on it? Will he be able to solve the naval base's housing problem with this?
Taihou became increasingly surprised as she looked, and her questions multiplied. Meanwhile, Mikami Hiroyu had already contacted Iowa.
"Iowa, where are you now?"
"Admiral, I'm returning to the naval base in five minutes."
"Okay, let me ask you, has Da Feng contacted you?"
"Admiral Taihou contacted me and told me to cancel the building rewards in the reward list."
"Okay, you didn't claim it, right?"
"no"
"That's good. Come back soon, I'll give you a surprise."
After Yu Shen Haoyu finished speaking, he exited the soul network. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Da Feng standing in front of him, staring intently at him.
"Admiral, what's going on with that?" Taihou pointed to the Maizuru Naval Base in Riki's hand.
"I'll tell you later. In the meantime, check the surrounding waters for anyone. If you find anyone, notify me immediately."
"Alright then," Taiho said, sending out her carrier-based aircraft to conduct reconnaissance.
However, Taihou herself continued to stare curiously at Mikami Hiroyu, fortunately Iowa...
They'll be back soon.
"Admiral, these are the rewards for completing level 1-1. This is your appointment letter for promotion to lieutenant. As for the resource rewards, there are only 3000 of each of the four resources, so your salary is gone."
"Why is it gone? Would the naval headquarters really withhold wages?"
“Admiral, have you forgotten? You’ve only been in office for two days. Where did you get your salary?” Iowa couldn’t help but remind him.
Upon hearing Iowa's words, Mikami Hiroyu awkwardly scratched his head and quickly changed the subject: "Taihou, has your reconnaissance aircraft returned?"
After sensing the surroundings with her eyes closed, Taihou said, "Admiral, the children have all returned; no humans have been found."
"Alright, now it's time for my surprise. Remember, whatever happens next, none of you are allowed to leave, no matter who the other person is, understand?" Yu Shen Haoyu said with a serious expression.
"Yes, Admiral, we swear on our honor as ship girls," Taihou and Iowa said together.
