Siren Commander, a mole in his own port

"A devilish hero is still a hero. I'm a very suspicious person. I only trust myself and not other people's promises. After all, there's no penalty for breaking the contract. Besides, I have the initiative, so why should I give it up?"

Luo Yun chuckled and said, "Brest, I might as well be frank. Even if you tell this to others, I have several ship girls to support me, including the three sisters of Archbishop Richelieu. They can keep me safe no matter what, but you are different."

Brest was speechless for a moment, and his mood also became depressed: "Yes, without the commander to help me, the other ship girls and I are just ordinary sisters. There is no need for them to offend the archbishop's brother-in-law for me..."

Seeing Brest's pitiful appearance, Luo Yun couldn't help but feel a little guilty: "Well, I had no choice but to do it. Now that you have figured out the situation, I won't say much. See you again if we are lucky."

"Is this... the end?"

Brest stood there in a daze. She was even mentally prepared to sacrifice herself, but the commander just took a few photos and left. Could it be that she was pretending to be pitiful too much?

"Wait a minute, um, are you going to look for Lord Arthas?"

Luo Yun paused, turned slowly, and pierced Brest with a sharp gaze: "Some things are better kept in your stomach, otherwise I will have to find a way to make you shut up forever."

"I'm not trying to threaten you, but I'm giving you a piece of advice. If anything goes wrong with your actions, I might be implicated," Brest said softly. "Iris's first divine machine was Gascony. Aside from her emotional module, her abilities were practically perfect. Therefore, Archbishop Richelieu took advantage of her strengths and strengthened Alsace's emotional module, resulting in..."

Luo Yun's face turned stern, and he asked hurriedly, "So what? External interference has no effect on her?"

He may not care about other functional modules, but he must be extremely cautious with the emotional module and must not make any mistakes.

"No, how should I put it..." Brest's pretty face showed an indescribable expression. "Her emotional module is very easy to lose control. If she doesn't wear the mask, she won't be able to communicate normally. What I mean is, you guys should be careful later and don't make too much noise and disturb others."

"...What? No, wait a minute." Luo Yun gently rubbed his chin for a moment, "Is that suppressor difficult to remove?"

Brest shook his head. "No, it's just a mask. It can be removed with a light touch."

Luo Yun fell into a brief silence. He had thought this would be a test, requiring extraordinary courage and skill to conquer Alsace, but he hadn't expected the enemy to be a mere scrap of trash. No wonder Clemenceau was so sure he could accomplish the task; having already conquered the more difficult Gascony, Alsace was clearly no challenge.

Luo Yun came back to his senses and said, "Thank you for your advice. I promise that as long as you don't make the first move, I will never do anything excessive to you."

"Thank you." Brest lowered her eyelashes. It seemed that she would not be able to let her hero have a romantic affair tonight. She could only suppress her restless mood and wait for the next suitable opportunity... If she deliberately spread some ambiguous rumors, perhaps it would arouse the hero's attention?

In any case, meeting the hero tonight was an unexpected surprise. It turned out that the saying was right, never try to hide your desires. The commander and the ship girl have a two-way relationship. If your desires are not strong, how can you attract the commander?

After leaving the bedroom, Luo Yun did not leave immediately. Instead, he hid by the door and waited with bated breath for several minutes until the rustling sounds in the house gradually subsided and silence returned. Then he followed Gascoigne's guidance and quietly walked into the depths of the corridor.

"...Turn around, walk straight, to the end. Master, do you see me?" Gascogne waved his hand expressionlessly in front of an inconspicuous little door. "We're an hour behind schedule, Master. We need to hurry. Sister Richelieu usually wakes up very early."

"There's something wrong with the route design. Who knew I'd run into an exhibitionist? Fortunately, I escaped unscathed." Luo Yun took a deep breath. "Let's go and see the holy relics the archbishop mentioned."

Chapter 223 Sensitive Arthas

In the dim room, a girl with long sky-blue hair stood silently in front of a huge black cross. Her cascading hair shone coldly in the dim light. Several blue hairbands wrapped around her overly plump body like living things, extending to the cross behind her, outlining a thrilling line.

The thin white gauze dress was almost transparent, faintly outlining the girl's delicate body. The pitch-black mask tightly covered her pretty face. Her cherry-colored lips bloomed with an alluring luster in the darkness. Behind her, a pair of huge mechanical wings slowly stretched out, exuding a trembling sense of oppression.

"It's...breathtakingly beautiful."

Luo Yun's Adam's apple rolled, and his voice trembled slightly due to suppressed excitement. Even though he couldn't see her face clearly, the delicate jaw faintly visible under the mask was enough for Luo Yun to conclude that her appearance was far beyond that of an ordinary person, not to mention that she also had a graceful figure comparable to Dafeng.

When he thought that after the plan succeeded, such a perfect existence would become his exclusive ship girl, Luo Yun's heart couldn't help but feel hot. He had to admit that he could no longer control his desires. When he saw a beautiful ship girl, he wanted to take her for himself.

Most importantly, he does have the ability to possess Arthas, which will undoubtedly further expand his evil desires.

A trace of determination flashed in Luo Yun's eyes. He took two steps at a time and came to Arthas. He slowly raised his right hand, touched the cold mask with his fingertips, and then gently stroked the edge of the mask and the girl's delicate cheek with his thumb. It seemed that physical contact could make Luo Yun feel safe and secure as if he had her for himself.

Gascony asked, "Master, when do you plan to start the action?"

"Well? Let's do it now." Luo Yun turned around and asked, "Gasconi, what should I do? Should I do that to her right away, or...?"

"Master, please take off Arthas's mask."

Luo Yun nodded slightly, reached out and took off Arthas's mask, and the girl's perfect face was immediately revealed. Just as Luo Yun expected, the girl's figure and appearance were impeccable, she was simply perfect.

Gascoigne silently took out a pair of streamlined VR glasses and a miniature USB flash drive emitting a faint blue light from the ship's space. He then walked in front of Arthas and inserted the USB flash drive into the data port of the pair of black mechanical wings. The metal wings immediately began to emit pulsating data streams. Immediately afterwards, Gascoigne put on the VR glasses for the sleeping girl.

"Awakening procedure initiated. Three, two, one... The divine machine Arthas has awakened. Master, the rest of the story depends on you."

As Gascoigne finished speaking, Arthas before him uttered a soft hum. "Hmm~ A sacred site belonging to Iris, a dream beyond human reach, the battleship Arthas... W-what is this? Status report, the emotional module is experiencing an anomaly and is about to overload... Who's standing before me? Let me go!"

In an instant, Arthas's fair cheeks suddenly turned bright red, and her curvy body trembled slightly. The thin clothes could not hide her body's true reaction at all, and every ups and downs were clearly visible.

Luo Yun was stunned for a moment, seemingly not expecting such a big reaction from the girl. He asked curiously, "What did you show her?"

Gascoigne replied calmly, "It's what you did to me. I digitized that experience, enough to overload her emotional modules, but it lacks the most important personal experience, which is what you need to do."

"Gascogne!? Are you talking to me?" Alsace's tone revealed a panic that was hard to conceal. "Who is that person next to you? What are you going to do to me? Why are you making me look at something like this?"

"Miss Arthas, you have a lot of questions. Allow me to answer them one by one." Luo Yun gently lifted Arthas's chin and stroked her soft lips with his thumb. "You should have heard my name. My name is Luo Yun, and I'm a human candidate."

"Luo Yun? That gay man! Why are you here?! This... this kind of thing... the emotional module is going to overload and explode...?" Arthas's voice suddenly rose an octave, and he looked like he was about to cry. "S-situation report... Ah, Arthas feels very strange in his body... It's going to explode!"

Luo Yun asked with interest: "Is it going to explode? I haven't even started yet."

Arthas asked in a trembling voice, "Start what?"

"Of course, um, help you perfect your emotional module?" Luo Yun moved his big hand, slowly covering the girl's softest part, with a sly smile on his lips, "Archbishop Richelieu told me that all your functions have reached perfection, except for the experience of love. As the only male in the port area, I am happy to personally teach you this final lesson."

"No, no, no, no... At this rate, ding dong... ding dong... ding dong, trying to connect to the defense module... Defense module connection failed, about to switch to physical link mode." Arthas uttered intermittent notifications, as if the system had crashed. Then, suddenly realizing the situation, he said in panic, "Why did the interface open without permission? Ugh~ What on earth is going wrong? This is getting weird!!!"

There is no acting, it's all true feelings.

Although Arthas knew about Luo Yun's night attack tonight, it did not mean that she could remain calm about it. After all, compared with Gascony, her emotional module did have significant defects. Just seeing Luo Yun's face could cause her to go into overload, not to mention receiving Luo Yun's caress while watching the intimate video of Luo Yun and another woman.

If I had known it would be so exciting, I would have asked Gascoigne to be gentler. It was obvious that he was trying to break her the first time!

"What interface? Oh~" Luo Yun's eyes suddenly became amused. He touched it without leaving any trace, then raised his right hand and waved it in front of Arthas. "Arthas, have you ever heard of the saying 'to say one thing and do another'?"

What Brest said was true. The girl's body was extremely sensitive. Based on his past experience, he didn't need to spend much effort to make the girl reach the peak of happiness.

"I, I, this is absolutely... not the order of the Holy See. Arthas wants to see His Holiness Richelieu!" Arthas was still pretending to be strong, but her body had honestly betrayed her stubbornness. As her delicate body twisted restlessly, the white dress seemed to know people's hearts. It slid quietly along her smooth skin and piled up at her feet.

Luo Yun chuckled: "You will be able to see her, but you have to wait until your emotional module is upgraded."

Chapter 224 True Feelings Revealed

Let me reiterate, Arthas has an excellent figure, even better than Mogador, Gale and other ship girls. Her body, which is flushed with embarrassment, twists restlessly, and her holy and ethereal temperament sets off her temptation to men.

"I'm sorry. Actually, I don't want to do this to you right from the start. We should at least get to know each other first, flirt, and then slowly develop feelings for each other, but... I don't have much time." Luo Yun's gaze slowly moved down, gazing at Arthas's delicate body, a playful smile curling up the corners of his mouth. "And you're ready, so why don't we speed up a bit?"

Luo Yun had thought that Arthas's body would be quite sensitive, but she had never expected it to be so sensitive. Relying solely on the video data provided by Gascony, she had reached the ultimate state of pleasure many times, and even completely lost the strength to resist. She could only lean on the cross and gasp for breath.

"Master, the divine machine system has been overwritten. Arthas will now consider you her commander and will no longer pose any threat to you," Gascogne reminded him at the right moment. "You may untie her restraints and control her as you please."

Luo Yun's expression shifted slightly, and he asked in surprise, "You mean you can change her cognition? That doesn't make sense, right? I remember someone told me that no one can control a ship girl's will, let alone force her to fall in love with someone?"

If this could really be done, the Sirens, who possessed a technological level far superior to that of the port area, would not have to rely on him, a reserve commander from another world.

"The ship's mind is protected by the Mind Cube. I can't directly interfere with her consciousness, but I can fine-tune the operating parameters of the divine machine system." Gascoigne explained calmly, "These adjustments will be reflected in the machine's performance, including but not limited to increased olfactory acuity, enhanced tactile perception... and a significant increase in physiological sensitivity."

"H-Hah... Wait, wait a minute! What did you say? Increased sensitivity? No, no, if this continues, Arthas will crash from overload!" Arthas panted tremblingly, "The temperature of the emotional module has reached the critical threshold. Just imagining it... Ugh~ Commander... Arthas can't... hold on any longer. Please..."

"What did you call me just now?" Luo Yun's eyes suddenly changed, "Commander? I did such an excessive thing to you, and you treat me as your commander?"

This isn't right. I haven't even started yet, why are you giving in?

Arthas ignored him, twisting his body constantly, his voice trembling with sweetness: "The suppression function of the emotion module has failed. Haah~ Commander... Arthas has entered over-overload mode! Commander, please help me repair my body!"

Gascony's eyes darkened slightly, and he thought to himself that something was wrong. The index seemed to be set too high, causing Arthas to lose his rationality and even accidentally let slip the fact that his master was everyone's commander.

Gascoigne paused for a moment before speaking, "Arthas is a newly born divine machine, still naive about emotional cognition. Furthermore, her emotional module has inherent flaws. Since her master can give her ultimate happiness, and I, a fellow divine machine, can transmit emotional data, it's somewhat surprising that Arthas is willing to become your shipgirl, but it's also understandable."

It was a bit strange that Arthas was given away for free, but it was not uncommon for ship girls to throw themselves at Luo Yun. He should be able to get away with it by finding a slightly reasonable reason.

"Hmm... is that so? It always feels a bit weird." Luo Yun frowned slightly. Although tonight seemed to be full of dangers, there was actually no challenge at all, especially since Alsace didn't even have the slightest intention of resisting. If it was so simple, why did Clemenceau insist on asking him to attack Gascony first?

It was as if... Gascony was being given to him personally.

"Master, I suggest you take Alsace first, and then consider the reasons behind this." Gascoigne urged, "No matter what her plans are, as long as she becomes your ship girl, she will not pose a threat to you."

Gascoigne is his own ship girl, and her decisions will definitely not harm him. If even she is doubted, the trust system that Luo Yun has built up in the past will collapse. Then he doesn't have to think about conquering all the ship girls, and can just wait to die.

"That makes sense." Luo Yun pondered for a moment, raised his hand and took off the VR goggles worn by Arthas. He stared into the girl's light blue eyes with pink hearts, then slowly raised his index finger and gently shook it in front of her blurred vision.

Without thinking, Arthas opened his cherry lips and put Luo Yun's fingertips into his mouth. His eyes, misty with water, looked up at him straight like a docile kitten.

"She's quite capable." Luo Yun chuckled, wrapping his arms around the girl's slender waist. Just as he was about to move, he suddenly realized that his posture was not right. He thought to himself and said with a smile, "Gasconi, it's hard to exert force in this position. Can you help me adjust it?"

Although the ribbon that bound Arthas was just for show and Luo Yun could easily untie it if he wanted to, he felt that this posture was more exciting to play, and it was more visually stimulating to have Gascony, who was also a divine machine, lift Arthas.

"Master, are you talking about... a butt-pushing?" Gascoigne tilted his head and asked, "Before I help you with that butt-pushing, do I need to share all the intimate techniques I know with Arthas?"

Luo Yun thought about it and rejected this tempting proposal: "Forget it, I want to personally transform this girl into my own shape."

Watching a few short movies was enough to make Arthas's heart flutter. If Gascoigne did anything to her again, she would really not feel any involvement at all. It was obvious that he was going to capture the ship girl, but in the end he did nothing and only had to sit back and enjoy.

Although playing like this is indeed intoxicating, it ultimately lacks the real feeling of conquering it with one's own hands. If possible, Luo Yun still wants to make his own living.

"Yes." Gascony said no more and slowly moved to the side of the two. She paused for a moment, then bent down and knelt at Luo Yun's feet. She held up Arthas's slender legs with her hands, then opened her pink lips and closed her eyes, waiting for Luo Yun's further actions.

Luo Yun exclaimed in amazement, "Is this Iris's divine machine? To me, it looks more like a machine specifically for Sese. Gascoigne, you've learned a lot of random knowledge in private, haven't you?"

"Answer—this is the knowledge necessary to serve the Master," Gascoigne whispered. "Iris's divine machine finally welcomed our Master today. Warning, abnormally high temperatures... Master, please direct our next steps."

"Then... help me lubricate it first."

Chapter 225 Richelieu's Plan

The next morning, in the harbor conference room.

Richelieu, dressed in an elegant long dress and bright red stockings, walked gracefully to the main seat in the conference room. Glancing at the empty chair, she turned and took a seat at the first table on the right. Then, glancing around at the already seated flagships and representatives, she said solemnly, "Today is the monthly meeting of the faction's flagships. I, Richelieu, Cardinal of the Free Iris Church, will preside over this meeting."

"Huh? What do you want to achieve by being so serious? Are you taking chicken feathers as your authority?" Queen Elizabeth pouted and muttered softly, with obvious displeasure in her words.

Queen Elizabeth was the rotating flagship last month, which happened to coincide with Luo Yun's arrival in the port area. It would take at least half a year to have such a good opportunity next time. It would be strange if she was in a good mood.

"Please don't misunderstand me. I have no intention of vying for power or personal gain. Everything I do is to protect the port area," Richelieu said with a smile. "I'd like to take this opportunity at this regular meeting to make a suggestion to everyone. It concerns those outsiders, and I hope you will carefully consider it."

"You mean the candidate?" Queen Elizabeth frowned slightly. "Hey, what are you trying to do?"

Although everyone has the same commander, the camps are not united. As long as the commander's safety is guaranteed, most of them fight on their own, and at times, they can even be considered enemies.

After all, the commander has limited time. The more time he spends on dates with others, the less time he has for himself. Even if there is group sex, there will always be someone who takes away some of the commander's attention.

Although Queen Elizabeth could not guess what Richelieu was up to, she knew very well that it must be related to her servants. Clemenceau had been criticized by everyone for abusing his power for personal gain a few days ago, and before that guy could calm down, what tricks was her eldest sister planning to do?

Richelieu crossed his arms and said calmly, "Your Majesty, don't you think we're giving those candidates too much power? Especially... I've been hearing some bad rumors lately. It seems that one candidate is planning to use some dishonorable means to force the shipgirls to submit. Do you have to wait for something to happen before you take it seriously?"

"Candidates coercing shipgirls?" Queen Elizabeth raised her lips in a sarcastic arc, dismissing him. "Richelieu, even if you made it up, at least make up a plausible excuse. With the power of shipgirls, which fool would dare to use violence against them? Aren't you afraid of not dying quickly enough?"

Yorktown, the spokesperson for the White Eagle camp, gently smoothed things over with a gentle smile, "Yes, Monsieur Richelieu, what you perceive as coercion is perhaps a matter of mutual consent. Without being involved, how can anyone understand the underlying situation?"

"Yes, I really can't tell, but we can't let our guard down. Even if there's only one victim, it's a failure on the part of our entire flagship, and it will be a lifelong psychological trauma for her," Richelieu said gravely. "To ensure the safety of the shipgirls and regulate the behavior of the candidates, I suggest establishing a supervisory system centered around Iris's divine machine to monitor and judge the candidates in real time. Any candidate found guilty will be immediately stripped of all rights and severely punished."

"Divine Machine? You mean Gascony and Alsace? But aren't their systems incomplete?" The Northern Alliance's flagship, the Soviet Alliance, leaned forward slightly, a glint of inquiry flickering in her bright blue eyes. "Can you tell me more?"

Although no one knew Richelieu's detailed plan, it was not difficult to see that she wanted to make a big fuss about the commander's bad behavior. The flagships quickly divided into camps according to their respective inclinations. One side spontaneously defended Luo Yun, while the other chose to support Richelieu.

Of course, their ultimate goal is the same, which is to find ways to attract Luo Yun's attention.

"Just last night, all of Arthas's modules were officially debugged. Aside from a minor flaw in her emotional module, her performance is flawless," Richelieu delivered his prepared remarks. "Supervising the candidates is the first practical experiment I've prepared for her. I believe that with their help, we can accurately grasp the candidates' movements and take preventive measures."

"I disagree," Clemenceau said dully, his chin resting on the back of his hand. "Gascogne is my sister, and she's also the Vichy Divine Power. She has more important responsibilities and is not obligated to play childish games with you."

The falling out between Richelieu and the Clemenceau sisters was already a well-known fact, so her deliberate opposition was not surprising.

"Gascogne is also my sister, Clemenceau. I am not joking. This matter is of great importance. I hope you and I can put aside our prejudices and put the interests of the port first." Richelieu said seriously.

Clemenceau sneered and whispered, "See? My sister loves to point fingers from a moral high ground. Sorry, I don't agree. Why? Don't you like your plan?"

Richelieu sighed and said, "I thought you would reject me, but I didn't expect you to be so decisive. In that case, let's follow the procedure and vote. Please raise your hands if you agree with my suggestion."

"I agree." Yorktown was the first to raise her right hand. White Eagle was famous for its mecha girls. As the flagship of White Eagle, she had no reason or position to reject Richelieu.

Tirpitz, who was attending the regular meeting as the Iron Blood representative in place of Bismarck, said coldly, "I refuse. Judging character is one of the factors used by shipgirls to select commanders. They can't blame others for their poor judgment of people. Interfering will only lead to more trouble."

Iron Blood is the core camp of the Red Axis, and it is unreasonable for them to support the actions of Free Iris. Besides, Iris has been in the limelight recently, and Tirpitz does not want to see them dominate the situation.

"I agree."

"I agree."

……

Outside the meeting room, at the corner of the stairs.

"As expected, the plan of the Holy See Richelieu is about to be approved." Arthas, wearing a light gauze dress and showing off her curvaceous figure, stared intently at the real-time video feed and couldn't help but praise. "As expected of the Holy See Richelieu, they have arranged everything so clearly. Now it's Arthas's turn to perform!"

Looking at the girl's smug look, Luo Yun raised his hand and pinched her, saying in a threatening tone, "Remember what you are going to do next. If you make any mistakes, I will overload your emotional module."

"Ah! Yes, yes... Ugh, Commander, could you please stop deliberately provoking Arthas? Otherwise, Arthas will start to think strange things."

"Stop talking nonsense. Have you two put on your gadgets?" Luo Yun shook the controller in his hand and said maliciously, "Go in when you are ready. Richelieu is still waiting for you."

Chapter 226 I should cooperate with your performance but I will turn a blind eye
