The Disqualified Commander of the Abandoned Shipgirl

But Glasgow doesn't think that the Golden Holy Wings will relax their requirements because of this.

Now that the mission has been accepted, we must continue with it no matter what.

This has been made very clear before.

"I hope they can return to the safe zone smoothly."

After praying silently in his heart, Glasgow continued to move forward in a straight line, going deep into the wilderness.

Until the pursuers behind him completely gave up the chase.

23. The support of teammates is reassuring

Glasgow lost touch.

She disappeared from the soul network just like the traveling Chushuang.

"It's over now..."

McCall looked at the result with a dead look on his face.

The last time I felt this level of despair was in Bingye.

"Such a reliable person in Glasgow is gone... What should we do tomorrow?"

"Don't worry, we will attack according to the normal plan tomorrow."

Ayanami was not disappointed or anxious, but gave a calm answer.

The two of them successfully shook off the pursuit, although it took a little extra time.

But in the end, he reconfirmed the rendezvous location with Wei Xiahan.

And successfully entered the safe zone.

The door to the bathhouse remained open for the two of them.

"It won't work just with the two of us..."

McCall had little confidence.

But it’s not all a matter of confidence.

If we consider it only from a practical point of view, it is indeed not a wise choice for the two of them to attack.

Although what I just said to Wei Xiahan was "Carry out the mission as usual tomorrow."

"No problem."

Ayanami answered calmly as always.

“Gotta believe in Glasgow.”

Glasgow is the highest-ranking and most experienced person in the team.

At this time, it is better to trust your teammates more.

"Tomorrow morning, we will go to the wilderness to look for her. With our abilities, it shouldn't be a problem to clear out one and a half strongholds."

Although there was nothing wrong with what he said, McCall still covered his face.

Glasgow alone is worth two of them.

Maybe even more.

From this perspective, they really have no need to worry about Glasgow.

It would be better to think carefully about how to deal with tomorrow's task.

Without Glasgow to help this time, the risk factor has obviously increased a lot.

And the ability to attack has also decreased a lot.

"Oh, I hope there's nothing wrong with Glasgow..."

McCall completely submerged himself in the pool water, muttering quietly.

……

the next morning.

Wei Xiahan once again brought some not-so-good news.

"Be careful when you go out next time."

"What happened?"

"The patrols and security in the border areas have been strengthened a lot, and it has become much more difficult to find loopholes to enter and exit."

Wei Xiahan glanced at the patrolling clone troops and muttered in a very low voice.

Although it came out through the normal route.

It won't attract any attention.

But it’s not so easy to come back at night.

"At night, I will pick you up from a place a little further away. Otherwise, if you get even a little closer, you'll be questioned as a suspicious person, and it'll be easy to be exposed."

"it is good……"

"The best outcome is that you can complete this task as soon as possible. In this way, there will be much less trouble..." Wei Xiahan said, but this kind of thing seems a bit too much to ask, "I wish you two good luck in martial arts~"

In a place where no one noticed, Wei Xiahan separated from Lingnan and McCall again and watched them move towards the wilderness.

"Should we go to Glasgow first?"

Ayanami asked.

"Uh, ask me..."

McCall was stunned for a moment, then felt that his reaction was a bit stupid.

There is no one else.

She thought about it and subconsciously wanted to find Glasgow first.

After all, it would be obviously easier if we met first.

but……

The reason why Ayanami asked this was obviously not as simple as she thought.

The two of them came to the place where they had split up last night.

The members of the Quanyan Guard had already left.

But Glasgow is still out of the range of contact via the soul network.

"Glasgow is probably a long way off now."

Ayanami spoke up.

"The next stronghold that needs to be cleared is still covered by the commander's soul network. If Glasgow comes back, we can contact him immediately. If we go to find Glasgow now, we may miss him."

After all, outside the range of the soul network, the entire world is shrouded in fog.

Trying to find someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

This is exactly what Ayanami is worried about.

"Then, shall we go to the base to carry out the mission first?"

"Well, here's my advice. If Glasgow doesn't come back in half a day, you have to go find her."

No matter how far you ran last night, you should be back in half a day.

"Okay... then, let's go on the mission first."

McCall answered while looking at Ayanami in surprise.

I didn't expect Ayanami could be so detailed.

She hadn't thought about this kind of problem... Of course, it could also be due to her mentality.

People who lack self-confidence will always subconsciously tend to look outside for support.

People who are tired of thinking may also want to find an external brain.

McCall has noticed this, but he still falls into it unconsciously.

After making the decision, the two quickly headed to the fourth Siren base that had been decided.

Although there was no Glasgow to help this time, after yesterday's battle, Ayanami's strength has gradually begun to emerge.

She was obviously stronger than yesterday, and was becoming stronger and stronger. The sirens outside the stronghold could not stop her at all.

Even without Glasgow to share the firepower from the side, Ayanami was still able to weave through the artillery fire very accurately and complete the close combat alone.

Finally, calmly fight your way out of it.

"Wait, Ayanami, that's a whole formation, don't—"

After McCall noticed the Sirens' formation, he was about to remind Ayanami not to rush in again.

In the end, Ayanami put it in the next second.

Then he quickly shuttled through the bombardment of a dozen or so sirens in the back row, harvesting the heads of the sirens in the front row.

"..."

too exaggerated.

A drop of sweat appeared on McCall's forehead.

If it were her, she would have been blown to pieces without leaving any trace.

Is this the difference in talent?

She suddenly wasn't very confident in the chicken soup Glasgow had given her before.

The difference between 90 points and 100 points is definitely not as great as it seems, right?

Although my heart was full of doubts.

However, McCall still tries his best to play his due role.

For example, attracting some firepower or something.

Or picking up leaks or something.

If you don't have enough strength, you need to use your brain and make up for it with cleverness.

It is not a good thing to constantly feel resentful and self-blame or to blindly follow others.

But despite this...

"I'm so tired..."

McCall's fatigue was still not alleviated much.

She just wanted to lie in the air-conditioned room, eat popsicles and play games.

I don't want to run around on a battlefield with artillery fire flying everywhere, facing the danger of being wiped out if I'm not careful.

That's what she thought before.

After that, there probably won’t be any changes.

The character of a ship girl will never change easily.

McCall was distracted for a moment.

When she noticed the increasing intensity of the artillery fire, she found herself surrounded by thirty or forty Sirens without knowing when.

There is little obstruction.

The little bit we have may not be able to withstand a few rounds of bombardment.

"Ah...Is it going to turn out like this?"

McCall looked embarrassed.

Thinking about how to get out.

By the way, I sent a request for help in the soul network communication.
