On the merit ranking list, the name of the original tenth garrison has disappeared, and Xiaobai's garrison stands prominently at the top.
Xiao Bai held his phone, staring blankly at the rankings on the screen for a long time.
"Huh? What happened to Sister Duan's naval base... Ah... Right, right..." Xiaobai held her phone and let out a deep sigh of relief, her mood relaxing as she collapsed to the ground like a deflated balloon. "Oh right... Sister Duan gave me the naval base... and I got the merit points too..."
With a sigh of relief, Xiaobai melted on the ground like a puddle of butter.
"Scared me……"
Chapter 1216 The Importance of Sustainable Development
In the courtyard house.
When Xiaobai came out of the room, the ship girls of the newbie naval base were cleaning up the mess from last night in the courtyard.
It seemed that because the event was over, the ship girls who had a barbecue in the yard last night were particularly relaxed. The barbecue lasted for an unknown amount of time after Xiaobai returned to her room, and the ship girls did not deliberately use the power of their ship equipment. When Xiaobai came out of her room this afternoon, there were still many ship girls lying on the ground in the yard, unconscious and sprawled out.
—It is necessary to explain this.
While it's true that the newbie naval base has its share of hard-drinking veterans like Washington, Nelson, and the Soviet Union, who are always eager to get a drink from any newcomer, the majority of the ship girls there are actually not heavy drinkers.
—Heaven knows how these ship girls managed to turn juice into beer.
"Ah, Admiral, you're up!"
Fubuki, holding a broom in one hand and a garbage bag in the other, was the first destroyer to notice Shiro as she walked out of the room. As Fubuki approached Shiro's room, she saw Shiro being pulled down. She threw the tools in her hand on the ground and hopped over to Shiro.
"Good morning, Fubuki..." Shiro looked at Fubuki, who was approaching, with a slightly embarrassed expression, and forced a smile.
"Hmm? Admiral, what's wrong? You look a little tired. Didn't you sleep well last night?"
"Um...no, I slept pretty well." Xiaobai scratched his cheek and smiled awkwardly.
After all, his naval base almost lost its first-place ranking because of a personal matter like waking up late. Even if Shiro had a thick skin, he couldn't possibly put on a relaxed expression that showed no concern at all.
Ah, the land of gentle pleasures...
No wonder people call it the tomb of heroes.
Xiao Bai silently reflected on his actions.
It seems I can't inject too much spiritual energy into Deep Sea Yamato next time. Although a good night's sleep is really great, it's really embarrassing to make mistakes by sleeping in.
Luckily, Sister Duan was there this time...
"Oh right." Xiaobai awkwardly thought of this, then looked at Fubuki in front of her, "Speaking of which, Fubuki, did anyone from the military police come looking for me this morning?"
"Hmm? Yes, yes." Fubuki raised her hand and smiled at Shiro. "A lot of people came around noon. They were all ship girls from the military police who had been here before. They originally wanted to find the admiral to attend some kind of conference at the admiral's guild, but after seeing that you were still sleeping, they left together. Before leaving, they asked Fubuki to tell the admiral not to worry about the rankings!"
"...I knew it." Shiro breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to pat Fubuki's head. "...Okay, I understand. Thank you, Fubuki."
No wonder I slept all morning and not a single ship girl came to wake me up.
It turns out that Sister Duan had already arranged the rankings for me.
Xiaobai felt relieved and turned her head to look at the group of ship girls in the middle of the yard who were lying unconscious on the ground as if they had been having a drunken party.
—It is also possible that these ship girls haven't even woken up yet.
Xiao Bai searched around the courtyard house.
Finally, they found Missouri and Iowa by the sink at the entrance of the bathhouse.
"Good morning, Admiral—or perhaps 'good afternoon' would be better?"
Iowa saw Little White walking towards her, and she smiled and waved to Little White.
"...Missouri, Iowa, hello..." Xiaobai scratched her head, stopped in front of Iowa, and exchanged a glance with Missouri next to Iowa. "Uh... well, I..."
"If it's about the rankings, Admiral, please don't worry. The military police have already come by. The merit points of the 10th Naval Base have all been transferred to the new naval base's merit points since the 10th Naval Base was merged into the new naval base." Missouri said to Xiaobai, then smiled and said, "That's truly something to celebrate."
"Uh... um." Xiaobai scratched his head sheepishly, "...I'll try to wake up earlier in the future."
"Please don't worry, Admiral. If something really goes wrong, even if it makes you unhappy, Missouri will still wake you up from your bed," Missouri said with a smile, covering her mouth.
"...Thank you, Missouri."
"Where is the admiral planning to go now?"
"Anyway... Missouri, you guys come with me to the Admiral's Guild first..." Xiaobai took out his phone, which showed hundreds of text messages and missed calls. "Well, since the event is over, I have to go there to check in. And since the governor is there, I can register Iowa while I'm at it."
Most of the ship girls in the courtyard were still recovering from last night's barbecue party. Since the event was over and Xiaobai wasn't going on a mission this time, she tried to minimize her exposure. After finding Akagi in the kitchen making hangover soup for the ship girls and saying hello, Xiaobai took Missouri and Iowa with her and left the courtyard.
"Speaking of which, Missouri, Wisconsin, isn't she awake yet?"
After leaving the yard, Xiaobai remembered Wisconsin and turned back to Missouri to ask.
"In Wisconsin, she and Saratoga stayed together all night. They drank two cases of juice and have been sleeping ever since. They're so close that even Missouri couldn't separate them. They had to be taken inside to sleep."
Missouri replied.
"Wisconsin and Saratoga have such a good relationship..." Xiaobai said with a hint of envy.
"Does the Admiral envy them?"
"Of course I'm envious... They've never been this clingy to me."
"...The Admiral is truly a sinful man." A faint smile appeared on Iowa's lips.
"Huh? Iowa, what's wrong? Did I say something wrong...?" Xiaobai was taken aback and turned to look at Iowa, who had suddenly said something strange.
"No."
"Then, what you just said..."
"Secret, secret." Iowa stuck out her pink tongue at Xiaobai and didn't answer Xiaobai's question anymore.
"Eh..." Xiaobai looked completely bewildered.
Little White led Missouri and Iowa back to the Admiral's Guild.
In the lobby of the Admirals' Guild, a large number of admirals crowded around the merit ranking list in the center of the lobby.
The admirals below the rankings were all beaming with excitement, discussing the matter animatedly.
Several admirals with particularly good speaking skills even stood on the table, gesticulating wildly, and began to tell a lively stand-up comedy routine to the admirals below the stage.
Xiao Bai tilted his ear and listened.
The admirals were talking about what had happened that day. The admirals who were surrounded by the crowd were also recounting how they discovered that the entire sixth chapter had been completely wiped out that morning.
It seems that all the admirals present already knew the news that the newbie naval base had been cleared of Chapter 6. However, these admirals clearly had no intention of getting tired of hearing this news. They sat below the stage, watching the admiral's performance, which was like a comedy routine, with great interest, and occasionally chiming in.
"These people really care about the admirals' affairs," Iowa said, listening with great interest to the admirals' banter, and couldn't help but laugh.
"Is that so..." Xiaobai smiled.
"Admiral, people keep praising you as unparalleled throughout history, unprecedented and unmatched. They're practically calling you a god who fell from the sky."
"...I didn't, I didn't..."
Iowa covered her mouth and chuckled softly.
"After all, the admiral is a terrifying being who, in just one night, brought the deep-sea atmosphere of the entire sea area back to its original state."
"Don't...don't laugh at me..." Xiaobai covered her face and shook her head.
Regarding the matter of the sea area in Chapter Six being changed to a safe sea area overnight.
In a sense.
This matter is somewhat related to Xiaobai, but also somewhat unrelated.
Chapter 1217 The Sea Area is a high-level sea area. The amount of deep-sea energy it possesses has accumulated over hundreds of years to a terrifying level. It is simply not something that can be wiped out overnight by the power of a single garrison.
Even a newbie naval base can't do that.
The direct cause of this incident was neither the newbie naval base nor a newbie.
Instead, it was a tiny, unremarkable construction device.
The white Deep Sea Dean who appears in this limited-time event of Chapter Six is a life form created by that magical construction device in the mysterious sea.
Even though the White Deep Sea Deans are not as large as the real Deep Sea Deans in terms of size, they are still far beyond what ordinary Deep Sea ships can match. The amount of Deep Sea aura required to create even a single White Deep Sea Dean is enormous.
In ordinary deep-sea areas, it's already quite remarkable if a deep-sea dean appears every few years.
This sixth chapter is something else. In one event, the construction device in the Mysterious Sea produced tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of units. Do you think any sea area could withstand that?
After all, building devices are not human beings; they have no idea what killing the goose that lays the golden eggs or what sustainable development means.
If it weren't for the fact that the deep-sea aura in Chapter Six was inherently rich and could withstand being squandered, the deep-sea aura in this area would probably have completely disappeared before the event even ended.
That's how it became what it is today.
in other words.
In fact, the limited-time event for Chapter 6 was caused by the construction device in the Mysterious Sea overdrawing the entire deep-sea atmosphere of Chapter 6 in order to create the Deep Sea Dean version of Iowa.
However, Xiaobai suddenly intervened, turning Iowa, who was supposed to become the strongest abyssal dean in history, into a ship girl and taking away the construction equipment along with her. She also packed up the last remaining abyssal deans who were used to consolidate the abyssal aura in the sea area.
Originally, thanks to the Deep Sea Deans that had been painstakingly created, the Deep Sea Aura could barely maintain its size. However, ever since Xiaobai sent all of the Deep Sea Deans back to the Mysterious Sea, the Deep Sea Aura of Chapter Six has been completely and utterly lost.
Xiao Bai was just the straw that broke the camel's back.
This blame should fall on Iowa; Xiaobai won't take it.
Chapter 1218 A Banner Arrives at Your Home
Listening to others boast about themselves was actually quite embarrassing for Xiaobai, so he didn't stay in the lobby on the first floor for too long.
With Missouri and Iowa by their side, the three of them, including Xiaobai, quietly made their way up to the second floor through the gaps in the crowd, amidst the shouts of "The newbie naval commander is awesome!" from the hall.
Compared to the noisy first floor, the second floor of the Admiral's Guild was noticeably quieter.
Xiaobai just went up to the second floor.
At a glance, the entire second-floor hall was deserted. The dozen or so white-bearded, unkempt governors who had been sitting on the second floor were also gone, leaving only rows of empty seats.
The entire second-floor lobby was filled with a sense of emptiness, as if no one had left. Only near the stairwell was Mu Yu, who was tidying up event documents with her head down.
I heard footsteps coming from the stairwell.
Mu Yu, who was organizing documents at the top of the stairs, paused. He turned around, and upon seeing Xiao Bai, his face, which was covered in dark circles, was instantly filled with immense emotion.
"Little White Sister! Sister—you, you've finally arrived—"
Mu Yu dropped the documents in her hand with a swish, opened her arms, and ran and jumped towards Xiao Bai with a joyful, tearful smile on her face.
"...Uh, um..."
Seeing Mu Yu approaching, Xiao Bai scratched her cheek sheepishly and smiled awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I'm late..."
"Huh?" Mu Yu, who was running towards Xiao Bai, stopped abruptly, her expression turning serious. "You're not Xiao Bai!"
"...??"
"My little white sister would never be so gentle with me! Tell me, who are you really?!" Mu Yu stared at Xiao Bai with righteous indignation. "The real little white sister used to kick me right away!"
"……"noob.
Xiao Bai wondered if he had ever played Mu Yu much before.
That makes sense, though.
Because of Mu Yu's past misdeeds, Xiao Bai would be extremely disgusted if he saw Mu Yu during work hours.
Generally speaking, let alone treating Mu Yu kindly, the fact that Xiao Bai didn't turn around and leave immediately upon seeing Mu Yu already shows that Xiao Bai is giving Mu Yu a lot of face.
However, everything has two sides.
Xiao Bai isn't a devil, after all. Today, due to personal reasons, Xiao Bai overslept and missed the last merit tally. Facing Mu Yu, who had caused him so much trouble, he felt more ashamed than disgusted with Xiao Bai.
Faced with such a wooden metaphor, Xiaobai was still too embarrassed to turn around and leave as she had done before.
"Uh, um, I'm sorry..." Xiaobai muttered to Muyu, "I've caused you trouble today."
Mu Yu stared blankly at Xiao Bai's bowed head as he admitted his mistake.
It seems they are confirming whether Xiaobai is the real person.
Mu Yu looked around for a while, then pondered for a few seconds.
Finally, Mu Yu had a sudden inspiration. He clapped his hands, looked down at the documents in his hand, silently took out his phone, turned on the camera, and pointed it at Xiao Bai, who was apologizing.
There was a snap.
A golden light flashed.
