The Disqualified Commander of the Abandoned Shipgirl

Page 80

"Brother, the mutants won't listen to you, so let's sign a soul contract first."

"..."

Lin Shen ignored those guys and reached out to pull the ship girl down from the booth.

The latter didn't react, and when he did, he subconsciously raised his hand and hit Lin Shen's neck.

But he was soon caught by Lin Shen.

The guy had shackles on his hands and was not moving quickly.

Even if not, after being disarmed, the ship girl would not be a match for Lin Shen.

"Stand quietly."

After grabbing the other person's hand, Lin Shen patted her head and whispered the ship girl's name.

"First frost."

"..."

Chu Shang was stunned for a moment, and then there were no other unnecessary movements.

Lin Shen used the key to unlock all the shackles on her hands and feet.

"Keep an eye on her for me."

Lin Shen said to Glasgow behind him.

"Yes."

Then, Lin Shen turned and looked at the receptionist.

"Do you have any other mutants here?"

"Uh…"

The receptionist was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted.

"No, generally speaking, we don't have it. This time is just an exception. But if you need it, sir, you can leave your contact information and we will notify you if it is available later."

"……Row."

I didn't expect it was still in stock.

Lin Shen left his contact information.

Then he took Glasgow, Rafi... and Hatsushimo who was caught by Glasgow, and walked around this floor a few more times.

After making sure there were no other exhibits worthy of note, Lin Shen arrived at the entrance of the auction venue.

"Sorry, according to regulations, please show your savings."

The guard said.

"...How much does it cost to get in? I've almost used up all the liquid funds I have."

"At least 10,000 New Zealand dollars, sir."

"Well, it looks like I have no chance of participating in this auction."

Lin Shen said this and prepared to leave.

I didn’t expect that the threshold for the auction on the tenth floor is quite high.

"Sir, if you don't mind, there's an entrance to the auditorium nearby."

The guard said immediately.

"..."

The audience seats mean you can only watch but not participate.

If you can't participate, what's the point? Is it fun to watch others spend a lot of money and bid?

Lin Shen originally wanted to leave, but when he recalled what he had heard from those guys before, there seemed to be something special on the tenth floor, he gave up the idea of leaving immediately.

"Then let's go and take a look. Where is the entrance?"

"Here."

I don’t know what the items will be auctioned off.

The value should be higher than these exhibits outside.

Lin Shen led the three ship girls towards the entrance of the auditorium.

There aren't many seats in the auditorium, but there aren't many people either, so there are still a lot of empty seats.

"sit down."

Lin Shen chose a secluded spot and sat down.

Glasgow and Rafi sat down on either side.

Hatsushimo sat next to Glasgow.

The latter's hand was still grasping Hatsushimo's wrist.

Just like an iron clamp, if Hatsushimo felt that if she moved even a little, Glasgow would break her wrist without hesitation.

She gave a mocking expression.

"As expected of a dog with its brain chopped off, it's so obedient."

After hearing what Hatsushimo said, Glasgow looked at her.

"..."

Although nothing was said.

But Hatsushimo read something else in Glasgow's eyes.

—What are you talking about? Huh?

——You are the dog, oh, no, you are a cat, but you are more like a dog than I am.

——Didn’t you expect that?

--Quiet.

"you……"

Chu Shuang was stunned for a moment.

She really didn't expect it.

But it was as if he had anticipated her reaction.

Glasgow gave advance warning with his eyes.

"..."

Hatsushimo stared at Glasgow for a long time, and the two of them just stared at each other silently for a few seconds.

Then Hatsushiro was completely sure.

This guy is definitely not a clone.

But one’s own “kind”.

In fact, the difference is very obvious.

It just took Hatsushimo some time to calm down.

I didn't expect to meet someone like me here...

But are they really the same kind?

She still obeys that man.

Still nothing more than a running dog of mankind.

Thinking of some previous events in his mind, Chu Shuang's expression suddenly became much gloomier.

All humans should die.

"I told you to be obedient, can't you hear me?"

"Tsk, you really don't obey unless you're beaten. You realize you're wrong now? It's too late!"

"From now on, I will break off all ten of your fingers every day. I don't believe you can keep it up for long."

"You obey now? Ha, I said ten days, so it's ten days."

"I've said it before, even mutants can be tamed. And they're easier to tame than humans. No matter how much you torture them, they can be cured. Don't you agree?"

"..."

The auction has begun.

Lin Shen folded his hands across his chest and looked at the items placed on the auction table.

The basis is rare metals.

Nothing surprising.

But starting with the third lot, things started to get more interesting.

"This is the breakthrough material of the ship girl. It is now known that the material can greatly improve the combat capability of the ship girl. This material was originally only available through the initial construction probability, but now, after spending a high cost, a small number of laboratories have been able to synthesize it artificially. I don't need to say more about the effect. The starting price is 5,000 Singapore dollars, and each increase in price must not be less than 300 Singapore dollars."

"Six thousand."

"Seven thousand."

"...7,500."

"Eight thousand."

"..."

The bidding was fierce.

This kind of material was quite rare even in the early days.

Now even the shadow of it can't be seen.

As we all know, the "conventional construction" method is currently used to build replicas.

However, with this method, there is not even the slightest chance of finding breakthrough materials.

Even with the previous construction method, there is only a certain probability that breakthrough materials for an existing ship girl will appear when building that ship girl.

By the way...

That breakthrough material is only useful for that ship girl.

It is not universal.

This makes it very rare now.

Although the starting price is relatively low, it is only lowered based on the current status of the replica.

This thing is useless to ordinary commanders.

However, it is very valuable to people in certain research institutions.

It's good material for research.

As a result, the price quickly soared to thirteen thousand.

Then go straight to 15,000.

Then twenty thousand.

At this point, only a handful of people were still bidding, and everyone else chose to give up.
