The time-based admiral of KanColle

"Then let me be frank. We hope that you, human, can go with us to a certain world, and then..."

However, before Black Royal Ark could finish his words, the originally leisurely atmosphere in the office instantly fell into a dead silence.

"..."

Realizing that the Black Royal Ark was planning to take their commander to another world, Chapayev and the others, who had been enjoying watching the show, immediately cast cold glances at the Black Royal Ark.

"Miss Black Royal Ark, you are lacking in sincerity in asking for a favor."

Looking at the Black Royal Ark who came directly to ask Yaxu for help, Shokaku and the others immediately showed an indescribable hostility.

Letting their commanders follow these META ship girls to other worlds, what a joke! They don’t want their commanders to get into trouble again!

"Is this a sincere request..."

Faced with the undisguised hostility of the secretary ships present, the Black Royal Ark, who had roughly guessed the reason, could only sigh slightly, then put his hands on his hips and responded readily: "I understand, I will go back and inform everyone, and then come to visit formally."

After saying that, Black Royal Ark nodded to Yaxu, then turned around and left in a handsome manner.

However, the secretary ships present all showed worried expressions about the Black Royal Ark's sensible behavior, and then... looked at Yaxu in silence.

At the same time, in an unknown world——

In the center of a vast sea area, a giant water curtain that was big enough to cover the sky and the sun rose up, and the surrounding sea water suddenly began to roll and sink until the barrier-covered buildings slowly floated up from the sea.

With its magnificent courtyards and intricate waterways, this huge group of palaces stands quietly on the sea like a dreamlike city in the sea.

At this moment, on the sparkling sea, a petite girl was walking nimbly on the sea surface with the indigo hue unique to the deep sea, facing the warm sunshine, and her two furry rabbit ears jumped up and down with the waves.

"Huh~ I really can't miss this long-awaited wind exploration time~?"

Chapter 1176 Arriving at the Commander's Zero Point!

In the afternoon, in the cruiser dormitory of the White Eagle camp——

After finishing his lunch at Helena's place, Yaxu walked into St. Louis's living room and found Black Helena sitting on the soft sofa.

The cascading blue hair glowed with an almost gorgeous luster, and Black Helena, set off by the smooth tight uniform, still had that pure and flawless clear temperament.

Seeing this, the fuller-figured St. Louis couldn't help but walk behind the sofa and hugged Black Helena intimately from behind.

So the next second, St. Louis, with the corners of his mouth curled up, took the initiative to act coquettishly towards Black Helena in a sweet and sisterly tone: "Hehe~ How about you call me sister once in a while?"

"Miss Louise, I have no obligation to satisfy your silly request."

After using her ethereal voice to politely reject St. Louis who was trying to get close to her, Black Helena pursed her cherry lips and then turned her head slightly, smiling at Yaxu who was watching not far away, and said: "So, Commander, do you have anything you want to ask me?"

"Ahem, did you figure it out?"

After Black Helena revealed his true thoughts, Yaxu, feeling somewhat guilty, had no choice but to walk over and sit next to Black Helena.

After all, the conversation between Black Royal Ark and Black Helena in the Admiral's Mansion is still worthy of his attention.

At the same time when Yaxu sat next to Black Helena, St. Louis with a smile in his beautiful eyes quickly let go of Black Helena, bent down his waist, and buried the back of Yaxu's head in his arms affectionately.

"Commander, how about you help me persuade her? After all, I really hope to have another sister."

Seeing that Saint Louis wanted to get closer to her through Yaxu, Black Helena could not help but slowly turn around and glance at the bedroom door in the distance, then joked to Saint Louis meaningfully: "Having two sisters named Helena is not enough for you to pamper, Miss Louis."

"Ugh, wuwu~~~"

Seeing that she was discovered by Black Helena outside, little Helena, who was peeking through the crack of the door, instantly shook her cute sky blue twin tails in fear, then closed the door with tears in her eyes, and hurriedly ran to the pink round bed unique to the little ship girl, wrapping herself up completely.

Realizing that Little Helena seemed to be very afraid of Black Helena, St. Louis immediately teased Black Helena with some playfulness: "Ah, didn't I expect you would even bully yourself, Miss Black Helena~?"

"Enough of the jokes, Commander. If you have any questions, just tell me directly. Don't worry about me."

Hearing this, Yaxu stopped talking and asked Black Helena directly: "Um, Black Royal Ark..."

However, before Yaxu could finish his words, Black Helena, who had guessed what Yaxu wanted to ask, stretched out her white and tender jade finger and slowly touched Yaxu's lips.

"Commander, sometimes knowing too much is not a good thing."

"But considering that we do not hide our relationship from each other, I will tell you about... the nature of us "monsters."

With a few lonely ripples in her red eyes, Black Helena slowly stroked her legs and opened her red lips to explain to Yaxu: "Commander, you should also know that both I and Feilong have been given the title of META by the Siren."

“But the word META doesn’t mean a code name, it means the state we are in.”

In a gentle and slightly sad tone, Black Helena then gently raised her soft arm wrapped in leather ice sleeves, stared at her right hand, and continued to explain: "Generally speaking, we ship girls can control our ship equipment at will through our minds."

"And when the development of ship equipment reaches a certain limit, the strength of our ship girls will be at a bottleneck that is difficult to overcome."

"If we want to overcome this bottleneck, it means that we have to push the development of the ship equipment beyond the limit, through extreme emotions, demands, or other means."

After briefly explaining the essence of meta-ization to Yaxu, Black Helena's cold voice became increasingly indifferent: "For various reasons, the price of pursuing extreme power is that the ship's equipment will enter meta-ization."

"The higher the degree of meta-ization of the ship equipment, the greater the strength of the ship equipment will be. However, if the degree of meta-ization is too high, the ship equipment will control us, the ship girls..."

At this point, Black Helena, with an almost icy tone, began to warn Yaxu: "And the Royal Ark intends for you, the commander, to use your ability to backtrack to save a companion who has become too meta."

"Although she looks like a blue dragon, that monster is completely different from the ember dragon you saw before. She is unable to communicate, and her mind has been engulfed by the expanded power. She is just a runaway monster."

"By the way, the ideal limit for the degree of meta-ization is 50%. Once it exceeds this level, we will quickly start to lose our minds."

"So... Black Helena, what is your level of meta-ization?"

"50%. Feilong and the others are the same. When it comes to this level, their personalities will inevitably be affected."

"..."

After hearing the description from Black Helena, Yaxu and St. Louis couldn't help but stand there in a daze.

From this point of view, the Bismarck in the Mirror Sea before was probably in a META state, obsessed with the self-esteem of the Iron Blood flagship, and beat him up with the outrageous black hole cannon weapon.

Perhaps it was because she realized that she was heading towards some inevitable extreme that Bismarck suddenly chose to commit heroic self-destruction.

Recalling his response before becoming the Iron-Blooded Commander, Yaxu couldn't help but sigh sincerely, and then he completely understood the Black Royal Ark's intention in coming to him.

Because her former companion has turned into an irrational monster, do you hope that he can change her back to normal?

I feel like...it doesn't seem that difficult to complete (it's really true).

"Commander, you'd better not underestimate the 100% meta monster."

"Eh? Could it be that she is ridiculously strong?!"

His thoughts were exposed by Black Helena once again, and Yaxu couldn't help but look at Black Helena nervously.

In response, Black Helena shook her head reassuringly and added, "Although she is much stronger than us, she is not someone we cannot deal with."

"It's just that saving her is much harder than killing her..."

After patiently telling Yaxu all the inside story, Black Helena no longer concealed her concern for Yaxu and warned him directly: "Going to other worlds is a big risk for you, Commander. I don't want you to agree to it just out of kindness."

"Even if...he was your former companion?"

"Commander, I am not a companion of their Embers. I just stayed with them before."

Just as Black Helena was about to continue emphasizing to Yaxu not to go to help, St. Louis, who had been sticking to Yaxu and eavesdropping, couldn't help but gradually lower his beautiful purple eyes, then stretched out his soft hand and pulled Yaxu's cheek on his chest.

"Commander, please don't go to other worlds to help without telling us."

"Ahem, St. Louis, I have never sneaked out without your knowledge, except for the time when I became smaller, which was an accident."

Hearing the deep concern in Saint Louis' words, Yaxu held Saint Louis' hand at the right time and said softly, "Don't worry, I won't act on my own no matter what."

"Really? But based on what I know about you, Commander, you should be happy to help."

Staring at Yaxu with eyes that couldn't tell her emotions, Black Helena's tone suddenly became much softer: "After all, Commander, you are too lenient towards the ship girl."

"I have been observing you for such a long time, but I have never seen you lose your temper with any ship girl, and you have not even shown the slightest negative emotion, even... it is the same with a voyeur like me."

Having said that, Black Helena suddenly glanced silently at the indoor potted plants not far away, causing a crystal blue butterfly to quickly shrink back.

As for Black Helena's meaningful hint, Yaxu remained silent for a moment and closed his eyes, and responded softly: "After all, before becoming the commander of this port area, I was just a negative number."

"It was not until I officially became the commander of the White Eagle that I officially stepped into the so-called origin and became zero."

"It sounds inexplicably sad."

While Black Helena and Yaxu were talking to each other, St. Louis quickly walked around the sofa, sat down next to Yaxu considerately, and said to ease the atmosphere: "Ah la la ~ Miss Black Helena is really indifferent, only paying attention to the commander and not paying much attention to me."

"Would you like to chat with me, Miss Louise?"

Facing St. Louis' initiative to talk, Black Helena suddenly revealed a charming smile and said to St. Louis in a playful tone: "Miss Louis, you seem to like to lend your collection of sports cars to the commander."

"And every time the commander returns the car, you shine a UV light inside the sports car. Are you expecting something?"

"Haha, no wonder Honolulu and the others seem a little scared of you."

After being told a little secret by Black Helena in an instant, the frivolous St. Louis, with the composure of a mature older sister, was not at all flustered. Instead, she leaned her pretty head on Yaxu's shoulder with a smile.

"So, so what, what's wrong with me looking forward to the Commander's gossip."

St. Louis lifted up her long legs with ease, then looked at Yaxu again, held up her charming face with one hand, and pretended to seduce her unintentionally: "If the commander could suddenly come and attack me in the middle of the night, I wouldn't have to do such boring things."

"In that case, Miss Louise, why don't you confess directly to the commander?"

"Because whether it's me or everyone in the port area, we are all enjoying the ambiguity between us and the commander~?"

Seeing Black Helena and St. Louis sticking to each other and discussing his gossip, Yaxu couldn't help but pretend to be dissatisfied and threatened the two big sisters: "I say, if you keep teasing me like this, I will take action against you."

However, just as Yaxu finished his words, a deep teleportation hole suddenly appeared behind the sofa, and then a pure white and flawless slender hand stretched out from it and knocked on the back of Yaxu's head angrily.

[This is what I want to say! If you delay for another day, I will take action against you! ]

"I have already informed the flagships of this matter. Please wait."

After being hit on the head by Enpress for no apparent reason, Yaxu, who felt somewhat guilty, was too embarrassed to drag Enpress along any longer, so he could only explain, "Anyway, Enterprise and the others need to discuss the selection of the ship."

"Humph!"

With a disappointed and unwilling snort, Enpress had to retract the soft hand covered with white gauze.

But just as the dark teleportation hole behind the sofa closed, Enpress reached out and patted the back of Yaxu's head.

"Oh, by the way! Empres, can the meta-ized ship girl be transformed back to normal?"

[What does it have to do with me! This is their own technology, and they should bear the consequences themselves! ]

With a very disdainful tone, Empress's voice slowly disappeared in the ripples of space.

Late that night——

In the sacred and elegant Iris Church, having obtained a lot of intriguing information from Black Helena during the day, the thoughtful Yaxu couldn't help but lie down on Richelieu's bed and began to think about the METAization of the KanColle.

Accompanied by the refreshing and elegant fragrance coming from beside him, Yaxu, who was lying in the quilt, could not help but sigh, saying that he was too lazy to think about these complicated things.

Thinking of this, Yaxu turned sideways and looked to the other side of the soft bed.

At his strong request, Richelieu, who was wearing pajamas, was leaning against the head of the bed, holding a thick Bible in his hand, and telling Yaxu the so-called collection of Bible stories with the help of the warm bedside lamp.

"Finally, after Moses and his people passed through the center of the Red Sea, the two sides of the sea that were separated by divine power quickly converged together, forming rolling waves that swallowed up all the soldiers who were chasing behind them."

After telling the story to Yaxu in a soothing and gentle tone, the dignified and holy Richelieu could not help but slowly close the book, turned to look at Yaxu lying in the quilt beside him, and smiled: "Commander, you have heard these stories many times, why do you need me to tell you again?"

"Really? But as long as it's your story, Richelieu, I never get tired of it."

Enjoying the satisfaction of having the bishop read stories to him, Yaxu couldn't help but squeeze closer to the warm Richelieu, and then shamelessly explained: "Of course, more importantly, I want to fall asleep to the sound of your voice, Richelieu."

"Commander, are you... just being a spoiled brat~?"

Her clear pink eyes were filled with soft ripples, and Richelieu couldn't help but slightly lift up his thin pink lips.

"Then I'll try another way of acting coquettishly?"

As he spoke, Yaxu winked at Richelieu and then buried himself in the quilt.

"Commander? Ugh...!"

Chapter 1177: A mass battle of new type ships!

Late night at the Iris Church——

In the dark and elegant bishop's boudoir, the holy Richelieu was lying on his side in a soft platinum quilt, with his cascading orange-gold hair pressed down, and a peaceful sleeping face on his face.

In response to this, Yaxu, who had not yet fallen asleep, could not help but slowly move closer to Richelieu and carefully observe Richelieu next to him.

With long eyelashes and an exquisite face, Richelieu still looks dignified and graceful even when he is sleeping with his eyes closed, with his thin lips pursed lightly and sleeping in an elegant posture.

So the next second, Yaxu suddenly took out a marker and quietly drew a small heart on Richelieu's tender and flawless profile.

Oh my god~ As a commander, how could he draw graffiti on her face while his wedding ship was sleeping (shocked)!

Thinking of this, Yaxu, feeling a little embarrassed, drew a little cat, the bishop's favorite kitten, on Richelieu's forehead, and then got up from the bed contentedly.
