Elder brother's garrison

"Huh? What?" Xiaobai was taken aback and looked up.

"While you were treating Hindenburg's wounds, Frederick sent us a message asking us to go to her place for a meeting tomorrow."

"Huh? Frederick? When did she arrive?"

"She didn't come."

"not coming?"

“When she wants to talk to me, she will speak directly in my mind,” Barbarossa explained to Little White. “We have trained together before, so she can contact me at any time, which makes it easier for me to carry out her instructions.”

“Uh…” Xiaobai blinked, “Can she do that to everyone in the city?”

"just me."

"Oh."

Looking at Barbarossa's face, Xiaobai suddenly understood.

It should be mental strength.

While there are many techniques involved in the admiral's remote communication with the ship girls through the admiral network, it is essentially just an interaction between mental energy. As long as the amount of mental energy reaches the threshold, Frederick the Great should be able to do something similar by relying on his strength. However, it seems that Frederick the Great's communication ability is still somewhat limited, as he can only communicate with Barbarossa in the entire city.

"Hey... Frederick's movements are pretty quick," Xiaobai said, tidying up his cards.

“Actually, it’s relatively slow,” Barbarossa said as he arranged the cards. “You know… because a lot of things happened today.”

"Oh...that's true." Xiaobai nodded. "Frederick must know about today's events, right? What does she want to discuss with us in this meeting?"

“I don’t know,” Barbarossa replied.

"Did she find the murderer?" Xiaobai asked, holding up the cards.

“I don’t know,” Barbarossa replied.

"Hmm... Miss Barbarossa, aren't you curious?"

"It doesn't matter, as long as she's alright." Barbarossa patted Hindenburg's head with one hand.

"Okay..." Xiaobai hummed in agreement, then asked, "What time is the meeting tomorrow?"

“We’ll go this afternoon.” Barbarossa pointed to himself, then to the Deep Sea Hindenburg on his leg, then to the Super Yamato, and the other Deep Sea Deans in the hall.

"You... you guys?" Little White muttered Barbarossa's words, pointing to himself in confusion, "Does that mean I'm not included?"

You need to go in the morning.

"Eh?"

"Frederick said he wants to see you alone."

"Ah...this..." The cards in Xiaobai's hand clattered onto the carpet. She gaped, looking utterly astonished. "What does Frederick want to do with me alone?"

"I don't know." Barbarossa looked at the playing cards in front of Little White's legs, still clueless.

"..." Xiaobai swallowed hard, feeling a little nervous.

Xiao Bai felt that she was fairly well integrated into the community in this city, and for the time being, she could be considered a model citizen. Why would Frederick the Great... suddenly choose this time to meet with her alone?

Based on Frederick the Great's previous impressions of Xiaobai, it seems she wasn't the type to enjoy chatting with people; if she asked someone to meet her alone, it was most likely because she had something important to discuss.

Uh……

should……

Could it be something bad that's going to happen to me?

The thought of being a deep-sea spy, coupled with his previous inability to figure out Frederick the Great's true nature, made Xiao Bai involuntarily tense.

"It shouldn't be a bad thing." Barbarossa noticed Little White's nervousness and said to him, "You're fine."

"I hope so..." Xiaobai grinned, but his heart still sank. "Oh well, never mind, let's continue playing cards..."

"Ah."

The following games were completely uninteresting for Xiaobai.

After another afternoon of brutally defeating Barbarossa, the sky gradually darkened. It was about time for the Deep Sea Deans to go home.

Barbarossa packed up his card box and was about to get up and leave with it when he heard Savoy shout from Little White's tent.

"Do you still have that kind of hot water? I want to drink it again!"

"Heh, you don't seem to consider this place your own home." Outside the tent, Kamikaze, sitting in a chair with his legs crossed, said to Savoy inside the tent with a mocking expression.

"My house is burning brightly, surely no one really thinks I'm going back to my own home today?" Kamikaze lifted the tent flap, poked her head out, and smiled gently at Kamikaze. "This tent is comfortable for me, I'll sleep here tonight, do you have any objections?"

Chapter 2106 The Three Glasses Girl

Finally, night fell, and Savoy entered the activation period of his skills, even speaking with a bit more confidence.

"Alright, alright." Kamikaze hummed softly, turned his gaze to the sky outside the hall, and then yawned slightly. "Hmm—but I am a bit tired today, so I might as well spend the night here."

"Huh? Your house isn't on fire, what are you doing here?"

"I'm so tired." Shenfeng swung her leg triumphantly, then looked at Xiaobai with a pitiful expression and called out, "Good sister—I've been running with you for so long today, and now my back aches. You can't bear to let me go home alone, can you?"

……

"..." Xiao Bai looked at the two Deep Sea Deans on the other side of the tent with a wry smile.

Barbarossa looked at Kamikaze and Savoy, then looked down and exchanged a glance with Hindenburg.

"Tired?"

Barbarossa asked Hindenburg of the Deep Sea.

"tired!"

Hindenburg's eyes lit up, and he nodded rapidly.

Barbarossa then reached out and tugged at Little White's sleeve. After Little White turned around, he slowly said, "We'd like to stay here with you tonight too."

"Huh? You want some too?" Xiaobai was taken aback.

“Yes, with you by her side, she’s safe.” Barbarossa patted Deepsea Hindenburg’s head, then paused for a moment, cautiously asking, “...Is that alright?”

Say something.

Barbarossa's words were even more sophisticated than those of Kamikaze and Savoy, and in a sense, they made it impossible for Shiro to even consider refusing.

In the end, Xiaobai could only smile awkwardly, nod to Barbarossa and Hindenburg, and say, "I'm fine with anything, it would be best if you don't mind."

unconsciously.

The number of Deep-Sea Deans staying at Xiaobai's place has reached four...

“I’ll stay too.” Shenhai Zuikaku appeared out of nowhere, raised his hand, and looked intently at Xiaobai.

"Ah? You're a Zuikaku from the Deep Sea too?"

“You will need me.” Shenhai Zuikaku lowered his hand, exchanged a few glances with Xiaobai, and said slowly.

With so many Dean Shenhai staying at home overnight, if Xiaobai wants to do something, he really needs someone who knows Xiaobai inside and out to cover for him.

Super Large and must always be by Little White's side.

Therefore, the deep-sea crane is the first choice.

“…Yes, that makes sense…” Xiaobai took a breath, nodded, and looked at Shenhai Zuikaku with some gratitude. “Then I’ll leave it to you, Shenhai Zuikaku.”

The number of Deep Sea Deans staying at Xiaobai's place has reached five.

"Hey! Staying overnight! Staying overnight!"

Hindenburg excitedly ran up and dashed into the tent, where Savoy's angry voice immediately rang out.

"Where did you come from? Get out! This is my place!"

"Hahahaha!"

"Don't touch it! What are you doing! You..."

"Hahahaha!"

"You bastard! You think I won't kick you—ouch!!"

"Hahahaha!"

Inside the tent, two figures could be vaguely seen moving back and forth, one up and down, one to the left and one to the right, jumping around inside the tent.

Savoy was indeed helpless against the deep-sea Hindenburg.

This is called attribute suppression.

"The Deep Sea Hindenburg seems quite happy..." Little White murmured softly, looking at the tent that was about to be overturned.

“We’ve never lived together before,” Barbarossa said to Little White. “This is her first time here, so she’s probably happier.”

"I hope they don't start fighting..."

“No, this is your home.” Barbarossa said, gently patting Little White on the shoulder. “With your prestige here, no one will dare to make a move on your turf.”

"I have prestige too, don't I?" Xiaobai scratched his cheek.

Barbarossa nodded, but didn't say anything more.

All five Deep Sea Deans decided to stay overnight at Xiaobai's place, so the bedding there was obviously not enough. Fortunately, there were plenty of these things in the city, so Xiaobai and Chaoda took the opportunity to go out and choose suitable bedding and blankets for the Deep Sea Deans who were staying at their house.

of course.

After choosing their bedding, Shiro and Yamato didn't go back immediately. Instead, they found a secluded spot and secretly opened a portal back to the naval base.

Tomorrow, Frederick the Great will meet with him alone. Whatever Frederick the Great's reason for meeting him, Xiao Bai felt he needed to make some preparations in case of any unforeseen circumstances.

I've returned to the newbie garrison.

Xiao Bai ran towards the modification factory where Luo Lian was.

The factory, which was being converted at night, was brightly lit, with its gates wide open, and the dazzling lights illuminated a small road that resembled a bustling street.

Xiao Bai is near the factory.

On the design table set up at the factory gate, the figures of Luo Lian, Yubari, and Warspite were clearly visible. Yubari and Warspite were carrying piles of equipment back and forth, while Luo Lian sat alone on the edge of the design table, holding a design drawing in her hands and looking at it intently.

Hearing approaching footsteps, Luo Lian quickly snapped out of her daze. She put down the design drawings and looked in the direction of Xiao Bai.

"Xiao Bai?" A hint of surprise flashed across Luo Lian's serene face. She stood up and walked towards Xiao Bai. "You're here again?"

"Lianlian... I'm here again." Xiaobai gave a wry smile. She walked up to Luo Lian and asked bluntly, "Lianlian, I have something to ask you again..."

"Hmm, what is it?" Luo Lian nodded and listened.

"Regarding the improvements to those combat glasses from last time..." Xiaobai asked in a low voice, forcing a smile, "I wonder if Lianlian has finished making the changes..."

Luo Lian had said before that the improvement of the glasses would take at least two days. Tomorrow, Xiao Bai will have a private meeting with Frederick the Great. If he didn't have Luo Lian's glasses with him, he really wouldn't be confident. That's why he shamelessly came over to urge them on.

"Oh, you mean the combat power testing device?" Luo Lian nodded in understanding after hearing Xiao Bai's words. Luo Lian bent down, took out an eyeglass case from under the design table, and handed it to Xiao Bai. "Yes, it was finished a few hours ago. Here, try it out."

"Wow! It was finished just a few hours ago?" Xiaobai's eyes widened in surprise as she looked at the glasses case that Luo Lian handed her.

"Yes, it's done," Luo Lian replied. "I guess you could say it was delivered on time?"

"Accurate! So accurate! Lianlian! You're amazing!" Xiaobai exclaimed as she quickly opened the glasses case.

Inside the glasses case lay a pair of red-rimmed glasses, the same style as Luo Lian's.

Xiaobai carefully picked up the glasses and placed them on the bridge of his nose.

"Huh? Lianlian, where's the switch?" Xiaobai curiously touched the temple of her glasses and found that the switch had disappeared. She couldn't help but ask.

“There is no switch,” Luo Lian replied.

"No?"

“Last time, Xiaobai, you said that this thing's standby time wasn't long enough, right? So I studied it carefully based on your actual situation. You can treat these glasses like other ship girls' equipment and infuse them with your admiral network. That way, it can use your mental energy as a power source and can be activated without limit,” Luo Lian said.

"There's such a thing? That's practically equivalent to wireless power!"

“I underestimated the barrier to entry before. If it’s just for Xiaobai to use, raising the barrier to entry based on your actual situation would actually make it much easier.” Luo Lian said with a slight smile, “Xiaobai, try it out and see how it works.”

“Okay…” Xiaobai turned to look at Chao Yamato.

The way Luo Lian described to activate the glasses was similar to using mental energy to investigate the ship girls. Xiao Bai was quite familiar with it, and soon, as Xiao Bai injected his mental energy, familiar data appeared in the glasses lenses, showing the super-large area next to him.

"Target ship type: deep-sea battleship."

Ship equipment grade: 6
