Thinking of this, Xiaobai blinked again.
Um... so...
What happened to the once high-class Dean of the Deep Sea Academy that turned out to be like this?
Xiao Bai propped herself up slightly, watching Chao Da and the other woman lying on her lap, rubbing against her thigh in pure enjoyment.
She loves drinking soy milk and has a leg fetish... I really don't know if this is a good change or a bad one.
"Admiral? What's wrong?" Chao Yamato felt Shiro's gaze and looked up to ask.
"It's nothing..." Xiaobai shook her head. She looked at Chaoda and thought for a while before slowly saying, "I just feel that Chaoda and you are too easily satisfied."
"Really?" Chao Da was taken aback.
Xiaobai didn't say anything more, but gently patted Chao Yamato's shoulder.
The giant dog climbed back onto the little white dog.
……
About half an hour later, Iowa also finished organizing the Admiral's Association's documents.
Xiaobai and Chaoda left the lounge and went to the office, where they found Iowa, who was all smiles and ready to go.
"Chao Da and Sister, it's been quite a while since we last met." Iowa stood smiling by the office wall, greeting Chao Da and Xiao Bai as she saw them in the distance.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Super Big nodded to Iowa.
During this week, because she was also tasked with transporting supplies for Shiro, as long as she remained conscious, she would be shuttling between the deep-sea city and the newbie naval base, leaving her with no time to socialize with others and thus no chance to see Iowa.
When she saw Iowa again a week later, Chao Da looked at her with a little curiosity. She had a subtle feeling that Iowa's temperament had changed and that the smile on her face seemed more relaxed than usual.
"What's wrong, Chao Yahei-neechan?" Iowa felt Chao Yahei-neechan's gaze fixed on her face, so she asked with a smile, "Is there something on my face? Why are you staring at me like that, Neechan?"
“It’s nothing…” Chao Dahe shook her head. After thinking for a while, she said to Iowa, “Are you easily satisfied?”
"...Which aspect are you referring to, sister?"
"...Regarding daily life?"
“Well, I’m actually quite greedy, you know.” Iowa smiled, covering her mouth slightly, her gaze drifting towards Shiro with a knowing smile. “Hmm… but in this respect, the Admiral has never disappointed me.”
"Oh..." Chao Da nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.
Xiao Bai, sandwiched between Chao Da and Yi Ahua, listened to their conversation and felt her face burning hot.
Xiao Bai and his two companions returned to the temporary garrison through the teleportation vortex.
After returning to the temporary naval base, Xiaobai also summoned the other ships and told them that friends were coming to visit.
Upon learning that guests would be arriving soon, the wedding ships were surprised by the sudden plan, but they immediately got to work.
The wedding ships quickly arrived at the reception room, where they set up a large dining table in the center that could seat more than a dozen people. Then they began ordering food from the canteen, cleaning the reception room, decorating the walls with lanterns and colorful balloons. In no time, the reception room was filled with a vibrant and lively atmosphere.
The opportunity was rare, so Xiaobai took the time to have Chaoda bring Nanxing back from the garrison base thousands of miles away.
The moment Nanxing appeared in the reception room, the wedding ships who were studying how to blow up balloons and ribbons and how to hang banners immediately put down what they were doing and greeted her warmly.
"Senior Nanxing, over here!"
"Sister Nanxing!"
"Nanxing sisters, we've been waiting for you."
"Nanxing, you've come at the right time. Do you have any experience in hosting guests? If so, we might need your help with the banners here."
"..."
The wedding ships greeted Nanxing without any awkwardness, and a group of beautiful girls began to chat, one after another, about how to make the serious reception room more relaxed and pleasant.
Surrounded by the wedding ships, Nanxing picked up the banner handed to her by the ship girls and the abyssal deans, and was half-pushed and half-forced to start directing the renovation work in the reception room.
……
It was time for dinner.
Shortly after Xiaobai and the other ship girls had finished arranging everything in the reception room, the guests of the banquet, Luo Yingying and her ship girl Shenying, finally arrived at the gate of the temporary naval base as promised to Xiaobai.
On the deserted street, Luo Yingying stood at the gate of the temporary garrison, hugging her thin arms and looking worried.
"God, Divine Eagle... are you sure we want to go in here?" Luo Yingying asked the Divine Eagle beside her.
"Didn't you, Admiral, agree with President Lu Lin?" Shen Ying stood next to Luo Yingying. She hadn't even changed out of her Admiral's Guild uniform. She calmly looked at Luo Yingying and said, "If we don't enter Admiral Lu Lin's temporary naval base, we won't be able to have dinner with Admiral Lu Lin."
"Sigh, what I mean is, why don't we just call it quits?" Luo Ying sighed, as if the temporary garrison in front of her was as dangerous as a dragon's den or a tiger's lair. "For example... I can go back and take a cold shower, and then go to enjoy the air conditioning for two hours? That way I can use my illness as an excuse to leave."
"..." The Divine Eagle's expression was somewhat helpless.
How could my own admiral be so timid when it comes to the matter of Admiral Lu Lin...?
The Divine Eagle simply couldn't understand it.
"Admiral, feigning illness is not a good option," Shenying could only advise.
“That’s true. We’ve already made an appointment with Admiral Lu Lin. If we break our promise, it’ll be a real problem…” Luo Yingying nodded, belatedly muttering to herself.
After thinking for a while, Shenying reached out to touch the doorbell of the temporary garrison.
"Hey, wait a minute, Divine Eagle, I'm not mentally prepared yet!" Luo Yingying quickly grabbed Divine Eagle's wrist as soon as she saw his movement.
"Admiral, it's already this late..."
Shenying was about to turn her head and say something to Luo Yingying, but just as she opened her mouth, the gate of the temporary garrison was pushed open with a muffled rumble.
The next second, a ship girl figure surrounded by golden mechanical arms came into the view of Luo Yingying and Shenying.
"Oh, so that's who it is. It's the Admiral's Guild's guests." The ship girl who opened the door looked at Shenying and Luo Yingying standing at the door. The curiosity on her face quickly turned into a friendly and cheerful smile. "Oh my, you are the people the Admiral said he wanted to entertain, right? Why didn't you knock on the door? Luckily, I have sharp ears and I can hear people chattering at the door."
Shenying and Luo Yingying looked at the ship girl that appeared in their field of vision.
After the ship girl used her golden mechanical arm to push open the heavy door, the golden mechanical arm surrounding her turned into balls of flame and retracted behind her.
"Montana……"
Shenying and Luo Yingying almost simultaneously uttered the name of the ship girl who opened the door.
"Oh, you guys know me?" Montana nodded with a smile. "Looks like I'm pretty famous. That's good, saves me the time of introducing myself."
Shenying and Luo Yingying stood there, speechless for a long time as they looked at Montana.
"Montana...is that you?"
"You...you're usually just responsible for guarding the gate?"
“Me?” Montana thought for a moment, then said to Eagle and Luo Yingying, “Well… I’m alright. I’m usually pretty free. When my sister doesn’t come looking for me, I like to wander around the naval base. The admiral allows me to move around freely now… Well, if you’re talking about guarding the gate, this is indeed on my walking route, so it’s not a problem to call me that.”
As Montana finished speaking, he held up one finger and smiled slightly at the two stunned people in front of him.
Chapter 3577 The misunderstanding is resolved
For Shenying and Luo Yingying, the door-opening ship girl in front of them was more than just someone they recognized.
This is... Montana.
Luo Yingying and Shenying recognized this face.
Among the three special ship girls, Montana is widely recognized as the most valuable, strongest, and most prestigious salvage ship girl. Owning her is equivalent to possessing unparalleled ship girl combat power, which is equivalent to indirectly possessing the throne of the world's number one!
Such a precious ship girl, if she were in any other naval base, even a top ten one, wouldn't she be treated like a goddess, meticulously cared for and feared that she might be displeasing in some way?
However, in the newbie naval base, that Admiral Lu Lin actually just casually left such an invincible ship girl in the temporary naval base?
They even made her guard the gate?!
Looking at Montana's friendly and approachable demeanor, Luo Yingying felt a complex and heavy emotion welling up inside her.
really……
For Admiral Lu Lin, other people's ship girls are still more appealing, right...?
Luo Yingying still remembers when the release of Mengda caused a series of shocking uproars in Chapter 8. In order to quell the riots, she and a large group of employees from the Admiral's Guild worked overtime to research countermeasures and deal with a series of trivial matters that followed. The group of people were so busy that they didn't sleep for several nights in a row, constantly repeating the cycle of working hard, collapsing from exhaustion, being helped up to continue working, and continuing the numb cycle of collapsing from exhaustion.
This is why Luo Yingying was so impressed by Montana's face.
"It's cold outside, don't stand outside, come in quickly, the Admiral and the others are already waiting for you in the reception room." Montana had no idea what Luo Yingying was thinking. She just looked at Luo Yingying staring at her with a complicated and heartbroken look. After a while, Montana smiled and called out to Luo Yingying and Shenying outside the door.
Luo Yingying remained silent for a while, then lifted her heavy steps and stepped over the threshold.
Shenying followed Luo Yingying into the temporary garrison, where she politely bowed to Montana.
"Miss Montana, how do I get to the reception room?"
“Go down this road and you’ll find the lobby on the first floor of the second building.” Montana pointed to the cobblestone path behind her and said half-jokingly, “Oh… by the way, I’m not going with you guys. The only people attending the reception this time are the Admiral’s married ship and a few of her good friends. As a new ship girl, I’ll have to stay here and keep guarding the gate.”
"Thank you so much..."
"You're welcome, you're welcome, go ahead."
Montana waved and smiled as he watched Luo Yingying and Shenying walk away into the distance.
After saying goodbye to Montana, Luo Yingying walked along the cobblestone path with her head down the whole way.
This was the first, and probably the only, time in their lives that Luo Yingying and Shenying had come so close to Xiaobai's temporary garrison.
On their way to the reception building, the two could see many ship girls coming and going in the naval base. These ship girls were in twos and threes, in groups of twos and threes. After noticing Luo Yingying and Shenying, they all stopped what they were doing and curiously looked at Luo Yingying and Shenying.
The aura emanating from these ship girls is unfathomable, sending chills down one's spine.
Being stared at by so many ship girls with unfathomable strength, Luo Yingying felt that not a single cell in her body was comfortable.
As expected of the world's number one naval base...
Even the ship girls inside the temporary naval base are terrifying.
Luo Yingying tried her best not to look at the ship girls, keeping her head down and walking forward on her own.
No ship girls disturbed the two along the way.
Soon, the two arrived at the entrance of the building where the reception room was located. At the end of their line of sight, a square high-rise building with a red background came into view.
As soon as the two arrived, they heard a voice calling from the entrance steps on the first floor of the building. Luo Yingying looked up and saw a snow-white figure standing on the steps at the building entrance, smiling and holding the handrail, standing on tiptoe and waving happily in their direction.
"Miss Yingying, you've finally arrived!"
The person waving and greeting was Xiaobai.
The moment Luo Yingying saw Xiaobai, her heart skipped a beat. She tried her best to keep her expression from looking too stiff and quickly led her figure closer to the building entrance, arriving in front of Xiaobai.
"Admiral Lu Lin, good afternoon."
Luo Yingying spoke to Xiaobai as politely and restrainedly as possible.
"President Lu Lin, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
The divine eagle beside him also spoke up, bowing as it addressed Little White.
Xiao Bai smiled contentedly as she looked at the two people in front of her.
"You've come at just the right time. I've just finished tidying up the reception room." Xiaobai nodded, smiled, and turned to walk towards the entrance on the first floor. "Come in with me."
Luo Yingying and Shenying exchanged a glance, and then silently followed Xiaobai into the building in front of them.
Inside the building, the walls of the first-floor corridor were decorated with lanterns and colorful streamers. A huge banner that read "Welcome" hung from the ceiling, and the ribbons and streamers around were colorful. At first glance, the atmosphere was like a festival, and it was exceptionally lively.
"Admiral Lu Lin, these are..."
As Luo Yingying walked along, she stared at the distinctly different styles of the decorations and wall hangings in the corridor, paused for a moment, and couldn't help but ask a question.
"Ah... Miss Yingying, are you referring to these decorations on the walls?" Xiaobai turned around and said with a smile, "My ship girls couldn't resist decorating this place like this as soon as they heard you were coming. What do you think? Doesn't it look quite festive?"
"Huh? You mean, these are... are they for me?"
Luo Yingying pointed at herself, her eyes wide.
Upon seeing Xiaobai nod in acknowledgment, Luo Yingying immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
"I...I...I'm just a lowly employee, Admiral Lu Lin, why bother with someone like me..."
Gaining the attention of Admiral Lu Lin is not a good thing for Luo Yingying...
The more serious Xiaobai was towards Luo Yingying, the sharper and heavier the sword hanging over Luo Yingying's head felt.
"It's alright, Miss Yingying, you're the most reliable and trustworthy subordinate I have in the Admiral's Guild," Xiaobai said with a smile. "This kind of entourage is perfectly normal for you."
Luo Yingying clearly wanted to say something more, but at this moment they had already reached the door of the room at the end of the corridor. Luo Yingying looked at the open door in front of her and couldn't help but shut her mouth.
