The Disqualified Commander of the Abandoned Shipgirl

This time he used Newcastle, and next time he will choose Newcastle again.

But sometimes, it doesn't seem to be a good thing -

Royal Newcastle has never been so "tit-for-tat" before.

Apart from work, there is almost no talk about anything else.

Is it because the relationship with the Lookout is too special?

Or should we keep a little distance from the beginning?

Lin Shen's mind was filled with regret and contemplation, but he uttered the answer without thinking.

"Of course I will agree. It doesn't matter to me anyway - this is the privilege of the Lookout. But I'm not free every weekend, so I'll see."

"I see."

157. The Commander and Him

After noticing the loophole in his words, Lin Shen patched it up.

Although Sheffield took advantage of the situation this time, it may not be the same next time.

Next weekend, he will definitely be "busy".

This clear sense of distance that was laid out in the open was in line with their speculations.

That said, Sheffield is still the only "exception", right?

Newcastle glanced at Lin Shen and then stopped asking questions.

It was not until Lin Shen stood up and left that she and her two other companions, who had different emotions, stood up and prepared to return to their rooms.

Commander... this concept is something very unfamiliar to them.

It's just that it's strange and familiar at the same time.

Their birth is related to this, and their death is still related to this.

The return to normal life is related to this, and the experience of being thrown into hell in an instant is also related to this.

These three words mean more than just that to them.

That day, they nodded and agreed desperately, seizing the only chance.

At that time, I didn't have the extra energy to look at this word straight.

But until now——

Apart from their daily battles, they actually have a lot of time.

It can be used to fully understand the world.

Lin Shen did not restrict this.

The network that connects the whole world is enough to provide them with enough information.

Let them have a clearer understanding of the world——

Or should be put another way.

"…We are trying to understand this 'world'."

"But actually, I'm just trying to understand the existence of 'Commander'."

They have been closely related since birth.

It seems to be something that is born with strong binding properties.

What exactly is it?

No matter how many weird things they have seen while surfing the Internet.

But in the end, it all comes down to one core issue.

What exactly is a "Commander"?

All questions revolve around this.

Why did it abandon us so easily in the first place?

Why do we have to follow it?

Why do we bind to it?

What exactly is our relationship to it?

It's even colder.

Or a little bit of warmth?

Newcastle had seen its ruthlessness before.

When she was easily pulled out of the swamp, she witnessed its unspeakable power.

When life really started to get better, she saw the power of his casual words.

On the battlefield, she witnessed its terror and power transformed into substance.

As she took the order, she saw its objectivity.

Although her facial expression rarely seemed to change.

But her view of the same word underwent a drastic change in just one or two months.

That day.

While she was still feeling the "Commander"'s easy control over her fate.

But it came up with another answer.

There is no strong connection between us.

——It wasn’t me who took you away from the past.

——It’s you.

It stripped away the natural constraints with its own hands.

And took the initiative to push them away.

This is very counterintuitive and counterintuitive.

It even made all preparations for a complete break in the relationship.

Newcastle had to admit that at that time, when she realized that the "Commander" had similar thoughts, the first emotion she felt in her heart was still "fear."

Because with its ability, it can easily strangle the betrayer.

But it didn't do that, instead it gave everyone a chance to exit.

But who dares to quit?

Even if it does not take its words seriously and goes back on its word, no one will say anything.

after that……

Newcastle saw it getting close to the ship girl again.

Two completely different attitudes appear on it.

But it doesn't seem inconsistent.

She discovered that some of the ship girls seemed to have certain privileges with it.

But later, she noticed it again.

There is not much difference between them.

They have a lot in common, they are all mutants and they are all destabilizing factors.

As for the soul contract - this factor does not seem to be decisive.

Because even if they are bound by a soul contract, there are still many people who have not entered that obvious circle.

It repeatedly emphasized how dangerous and unbearable what it asked them to do was.

But in fact, it is precisely on the edge of a certain invisible bottom line.

It didn't really take one of them to fight to the point of scrapping.

That day, it said: "Don't abandon your teammates unless it is absolutely necessary."

"So when is 'the last resort'?"

"...When the time comes, you will know, but that is not now."

She accepted the vague statement.

Not impressed.

From what she knew, it would be more decisive than anyone else by then.

Because she had seen its cruelty.

Know what it can do.

But that day, it casually said, "When you are unable to complete the mission, abandon your companions."

Cold words as always.

Like the air getting colder and colder.

She didn't take it seriously at first.

But then she thought of it again one night as she lay in bed waiting to fall asleep.

It said before that the word "can't do" does not exist in the dictionary of "Lookout".

...It must be a coincidence.

There are a large number of "Commanders" in this world.

They are the guides of the ship girls and the coordinates of the replica manufacturing machines.

He is the creator of mutants.

She is the natural master of the ship.

He is also the executioner of KanColle.

She felt that she was getting to know the Commander better and better.

They select things that are useful to them as coldly as God.

Throw away things that are of no use to you and throw them into the incinerator.

Ignore the few seconds they groan in the heat.

As created objects, they do not need to have their own thoughts and emotions.

All you need to do is serve your Creator unconditionally.

But some people thought this was not acceptable, so they raised the banner of rebellion against the Creators.

There actually are creatures that dare to disobey their masters.

She realized that they could and did have the means to do so.

She realized that they were indeed very close - without the constraints of the soul contract, if they wanted to rebel, they only needed to say hello in the soul network during a weekend break.

No need to even say hello.

Pack your things today and leave at dawn tomorrow.

Such a huge omission should not be ignored.

She realized that perhaps what it said was true.

It was indeed prepared for them all to rebel.

But on this premise, it still teaches all the complex but useful fighting skills.

They were taught many skills such as cooperation, coordination, killing enemies, stealth, close combat, artillery fire, etc.

At this time, Newcastle realized that he might not have understood the "Commander".
