Even in the world of Kancolle, I want to drive a robot!

Amagi originally wanted to talk about Akagi's laziness and rudeness, but considering that there were more important things to do at the moment, he could only "let go" of the red fox in his heart and sat next to Nagato.

After everyone was seated one by one, the lights in the conference room suddenly lit up, and a huge light screen was projected onto the center of the long table...Then the atmosphere became eerie and quiet, and everyone had a solemn expression and said nothing.

Xia Bai poked King George V, who was sitting next to him because they were walking together, under the table and said in a very low voice: "What's going on? Why is everyone silent?"

"Well, maybe I haven't figured out where to start. After all, the last time the five factions of Azur Lane gathered together was a long time ago... unfamiliar?"

After hearing the two's whispered conversation, RX-03 explained softly, "It's a matter of identity. Although the major camps are allies, they are at odds with each other because of their different philosophies. There are constant minor frictions between them."

"For example, the Sakura Empire and the White Eagles, the Iron Blood and the Royal Family... So now we need someone with a high enough status who can convince everyone to take the initiative and bring up what we are going to discuss today."

Xia Bai lowered his voice and said with a guilty conscience: "The person you are talking about should not be me. I am just a mascot who is here to listen in."

"Who else could it be but you? Stop wasting time and get started."

Rolling his eyes, RX-03 pinched the soft flesh on Xia Bai's waist, causing him to stand up from his seat.

Xia Bai realized that everyone's eyes were instantly on him. He could no longer sit down and could only bite the bullet and stammer, "Um... um... ah, where do we start?"

"I'm just throwing out some ideas. Since no one else is talking, I'll start with something."

"The first and most important point is the distribution of the Sirens in the Solomon Line of Defense and how many Sirens are there in each place." Having said that, Xia Bai nodded to Tiancheng, indicating that it was her turn to come out to save the situation.

Standing up, Tiancheng bowed slightly to everyone, pointed his slender white finger at the light screen, and said confidently: "According to the results of our submarine reconnaissance, there are countless mass-produced non-human sirens."

"There are more than four digits of humanoid elite intelligent sirens. As for whether there are other intelligent sirens besides the strongest arbitrator, Empres, it is unknown."

"Because the attack on the Solomon Line is a common message for both sides, they are currently mostly patrolling around the obelisk standing on the sea."

"And I-168 also detected that the enemy's military strength is growing... and from what the Son of Prometheus has detected, the obelisk seems to be a transmission node connected to the Siren headquarters."

"Does this mean that the number of Sirens we faced during the attack was far more than just those?" Prince Eugen couldn't help but ask upon hearing this.

"Yes, a conservative estimate is over a thousand elite sirens, but we can't say how many there will be when we actually get there."

After getting Tiancheng's confirmation, everyone's faces turned ugly. Elite Sirens are not so easy to deal with. If there are enough players, their air rights will be lost and they will become blind and the target of the opponent's aircraft carrier.

And if there are enough Breakers, there will be no safe place on the sea. The opponent's light beams can easily cover the entire battlefield and complete beyond-visual-range strikes.

Under normal circumstances, Xia Bai could clear the field with just one shot from Innocence or Susanoo. However, Observer Zero knew the exaggerated firepower of these Mecha Gods, so he specially arranged for Enpress to face Xia Bai and use the exchange tactic to remove him from the battle.

Even New Jersey is no match for four people with two fists. Facing so many light beams and rays, it will sink if it is not careful. What's more, no one believes that Observer Zero will not arrange a proper opponent for that "monster rabbit".

This is difficult...

"In fact, there is no need to worry about the Elite Sirens. After the Son of Prometheus changed his clothes, he is now capable of standing alone."

Just when everyone looked grim, 03's speech reminded them. Yes, they still had the Sons of Prometheus, a highly mobile unit.

Judging from the performance of RX-16 in full combat and 01's modified terminal mecha, it seems that Xia Bai can easily achieve firepower coverage without any need for him.

Thinking of this, Enterprise couldn't help but ask, "Can the positron cannon be mass-produced? If the Sons of Prometheus are equipped with such weapons on a large scale, then we can easily deal with the opponent's human wave tactics."

"I really want to answer yes, but I've asked Akashi. That thing is too expensive, and it's a test product. Given the current environment, mass production is impossible."

"Then we can also get a few more... Wait, does the positron cannon have any effect on the sirens?"

Shrugging his shoulders, Xia Baimian replied expressionlessly: "I'm sorry, the effect is not obvious after the experiment. When facing bad beasts, the positron cannon can decompose them."

"Almost all elite sirens have energy shields, but they don't need to deploy them when facing physical attacks from shipgirls."

"The Sirens didn't come here to destroy us. They have their own battlefield... To put it bluntly, the technological gap is too big. What we have, they also have."

"Compared to Akashi's experimental beam weapons, the 'magic' barrage you fired is more reliable... because it is the power of idealism."

Seeing Enterprise's expression becoming more gloomy, Xia Bai smiled and comforted her: "It's not that difficult. If the ship girls fight together, their strength will be much higher than fighting alone."

"The various positive benefits can be stacked, and the opponent will also be blessed with countless negative effects."

"In this kind of super-large group battle, I estimate that it will increase to more than three times the original in one go, so I think."

"——It is not difficult to defeat the enemy with fewer people."

Chapter 171 The heroine appears again!

Leaning against the wall outside the door, Xia Bai pulled at the slightly tight collar of his clothes and lit a cigarette.

After he threw out the idea, the atmosphere really became lively. The discussion shifted from the enemy's troop strength to the route to attack.

The Solomon Line was formerly known as the Solomon Sea, but because it connects to an important road, the Maritime Administration has heavily guarded that area. This is the border between Sith and Faru.

Other routes can be bypassed, but another road leads directly to the center of the ocean, which is also the obvious Siren Base. This is to tell humans widely that you can only take the Solomon Road and forget about other routes.

After the Sirens occupied the Solomon Sea, they successfully completed the air and sea amphibious isolation, dividing the major seas that should have been connected into two, and the situation in the world changed drastically.

The humans and the ship girls, who were originally in a stalemate and slightly disadvantaged, were completely in a headwind environment and could only retreat to a few areas of sea that had not yet been cleared.

As for why the Solomon Line, which should have been under strict control, was lost, it remains a mystery until now. The Bartons, the only survivors of the four or five garrisons, do not know the details.

Someone must take the blame for such a failure, and no one in this world can afford this responsibility, so this is also the main reason why Barton Brian was sent to prison.

Over the years, humans have tried many times to retake the Solomon Line, from the Son of Prometheus to the Cold Breaking Operation involving dozens of garrisons.

The result was obvious, they were all defeated by the Siren's firepower and numerical advantage. However, the losses in these attacks were not great. At that time, Xia Bai just thought that the Siren had no spare energy to pursue, but now thinking about it, this was the result of the Siren deliberately holding back.

Judging from the appearance of white light several times, the Sirens’ occupation of the Solomon Line is not just to block the sea, but should have a deeper purpose.

"Huh, when will I consider these things... Not having to use my brain is what suits me."

With a self-deprecating smile, Xia Bai used the spiral power to erase the traces of smoking. Just as he was about to return to the meeting room, he was pulled from behind by the expressionless Prince of Wales.

"I was thinking about whether I could take revenge among a bunch of ship girls. It seems I'm lucky to have caught you here."

If it were in the past, Xia Bai might still be afraid of the Prince of Wales, but the situation is different now. He is really confident that he can defeat the opponent in a one-on-one fight.

After adjusting his collar a little, Xia Bai said nonchalantly, "So how are you going to retaliate and fight me?"

"I'm not saying anything bad about you, but a gambler should accept defeat. What's the point of coming to me when you set the bet yourself? The red tip is not in my hands."

"Besides, they are just some red spikes. Why do you hold a grudge against me for so long? People who don't know would think I did something bad to you."

"Wow, it's more than just a little red tip. Do you know how long it has been since I last drank good red wine? Do you know how much time it took me to pay back the money?"

The Prince of Wales put his hands on Xia Bai's shoulders and said excitedly, "I can tell you clearly that from that day until last night, I have paid off all my debts."

"And all this is the result of you and War-weary's match-fixing... Now you are not even the commander of our Royal Family, and you dare to lecture me like this?"

"Otherwise, the Royal Navy's fleet girls are all in my hands. How can a mere Prince of Wales like you turn the world upside down?" Acknowledging his identity as the Royal Commander, Xia Bai proudly raised his eyebrows at Wales, which made her very angry.

But she couldn't find anything to refute. This was something that her sister, War-weary, Elizabeth, and Belfast all agreed to. She, the Prince of Wales, opposed Xia Bai becoming the Royal Commander.

"Tsk, it's really annoying that a rude man like you would become our commander."

"I don't like what you said. I'm handsome, in good shape, and strong. I'm truly a man like a 'caring big brother'."

Counting his own "advantages", Xia Bai looked the Prince of Wales up and down, and said shamelessly: "You should be happy to have a man as brave as me as your commander. Why are you complaining about this and that?"

This may sound arrogant and narcissistic, but when Prince of Wales thought about it carefully, it seemed that there was no one as suitable as Xia Bai among all the people he had met. If you had to point out his shortcomings, you really couldn't find any.

Seeing that Prince Wales was speechless, Xia Bai struck while the iron was hot and continued: "Wales, do you have any idea of ​​driving a mecha? Why don't you learn the correct way to drive from me?"

With a gleam in his eyes, the Prince of Wales put his arm around Xia Bai's waist and said sincerely, "As long as you let me drive the mecha, the past will be written off."

"Your attitude changes really quickly..."

"Otherwise, it's already a foregone conclusion that you will become the Royal Commander. A wise bird chooses the right tree to roost in. I will just bow down to you. Isn't that wonderful?"

"Then I demand that you call me Commander now."

"Go to hell, man with evil thoughts!" After lightly punching Xia Bai in the abdomen, the Prince of Wales let go of his arms.

Before Xia Bai could angrily denounce the Prince of Wales for assassinating Wang Jia, a weak voice rang out.

"Um...didn't you see me?"

Javelin, who had appeared in front of the two of them at some point, raised her hand and looked very aggrieved: "I always feel like I haven't appeared for a long time, but I'm obviously the heroine."

Xia Bai, the heroine in Javelin's words, didn't know what it meant, but his intuition told him that it would be better not to delve into it, otherwise great terror would destroy the world.

So he squatted down, gently touched Javelin's little head, and said with a smile: "Sorry, I was chatting with Wales just now and didn't notice you."

"My goddess of victory, what's the matter with you coming here at this time?"

"Victory, goddess of victory..." As if feeling shy about being addressed by Xia Bai, Javelin's face suddenly turned red, and he said embarrassedly, "It's not that exaggerated, Xia Bai was just joking..."

"I'm here to bring you something."

Handing a stack of documents to Xia Bai, Javelin explained: "This is a small gift from our Royal Expedition... It contains the list of Royal Ship Girls and some other things."

"I hope I can provide you, Xia Bai, with some help."

After saying that, Javelin turned around and ran away in a hurry. Compared to Z23 who was affected by her, she was more love-minded. After just a few words with Xia Bai, a large number of romantic scenes emerged in her mind. If she continued to stay here, she might faint like Nimi.

Chapter 172 Junior Wife

"You're really good. You can even use a javelin."

"Thank you, thank you. The javelin is so cute, I will definitely not let it go easily."

Seeing Xia Bai shamelessly admitting it, the Prince of Wales said with a complicated look: "Don't bully Javelin. She is quite innocent and can be easily deceived."

"Wales, are you out of your mind? You took what I said seriously. Anyone with eyes can see that this is a joke."

Shaking his head, the Prince of Wales took over the conversation and said, "No, Javelin is the kind of ship girl who has wild thoughts and is deeply poisoned by girls' comics."

"Maybe you don't have such thoughts, but once you are too gentle to her, Javelin will automatically add a filter to you in her mind... That's the so-called self-attack strategy."

"Come on, javelin is not as exaggerated as you say." Waving his hand, Xia Bai lit another cigarette and opened the briefcase.

It's not that Xia Bai didn't believe the Prince of Wales' words, but he thought that the javelin really wouldn't be that strange, after all, the two had fought side by side. It's definitely not that he knew him well, but Xia Bai still understood him.

The energetic destroyer is cheerful and girlish, always startled, but very cute, especially when paired with white silk over-the-knee socks and a dark blue plaid skirt. The girlish index is full. No matter how you look at it, she doesn't look like the kind of destroyer that would have a crazy imagination.

After noticing that Xia Bai leaned against the wall and flipped through the royal list given by Javelin, with no intention of returning to the meeting room, the Prince of Wales could not help but ask, "Aren't you going back? As a commander, it's okay not to participate in this kind of meeting?"

Looking up at the Prince of Wales, Xia Bai said unhappily, "Why do you think I came out? It's because what they discussed almost made my head explode."

"Anyway, I'm just a mascot. I'll just have to wait for them to make a decision before making one...By the way, Elizabeth came out with me. Didn't you notice?"

"No, I saw you smoking here alone when I came."

"Maybe he's going to have fun with Tolerance. Don't take it too seriously."

After that, Xia Bai turned his attention to the list of the Royal Navy Ship Girls, pointed at the blacked-out form on the first page, and asked curiously, "What the hell is this? Not only is there no photo, but even the ship girl's name is blacked out."

Looking at the list with curiosity, the Prince of Wales replied: "Don't worry about this, this should be that person."

"But she is on a journey of atonement to wash away her shame, so information cannot be easily revealed. You will know when she returns."

"She made a big mistake?"

"The queen wasn't originally the queen, and the highest fighting force of the royal family wasn't the monarch. I think you should understand what I mean."

Before Elizabeth, the Royal Family did have a leader, just like Mikasa before Nagato. But the Royal Family's shipgirls were very secretive about this, never mentioned it, and would end the topic on their own when they occasionally talked about it.

Xia Bai didn't understand it before, but now after hearing the word "atonement", he can probably guess what is going on. The other party must have suffered heavy losses when leading the royal family, so he handed over the position to Elizabeth and left on his own.

Without further questioning, Xia Bai nodded and continued to flip through the book in his hand.

I have to say that the destroyers made this gift with great care. Not only are photos of each Royal Navy girl posted under her name, but also her abilities and combat data, as well as some small details of her life.

As expected, the considerate and lovely little expeller is the best. He is very satisfied with this reunion gift.

"Aren't you curious about that ship girl?"

"Is curiosity useful? Even Befa and the others won't tell me, let alone you..." When Xia Bai turned to the form of one of the ship girls, he suddenly screamed.

"Oh my god, what is this?"

Holding the list of ship girls in one hand and pointing at the photo on it with the other, the young and lovely girl caught the eyes of the Prince of Wales.

Facing Xia Bai's surprise, she shrugged and said calmly: "Just as you thought, she is our royal ship girl, from the glory."

"It's cute, isn't it? A smaller version of Kuang Hui, with an average figure and little wings behind her. It's completely different from what you usually see, isn't it?"

"Little Glory! No...little wife!"

Seeing Xia Bai's breathing suddenly become heavy, the Prince of Wales held his forehead helplessly and said: "Don't be in heat, it's really necessary for such a young child... Really, he is as perverted as the Royal Ark."

"We in the Royal Family also have Little Reputation and Little Beifa. Wouldn't you be even crazier if you saw them?"

"Little, little Beifa!"

Hearing this, Xia Bai could no longer suppress the strong emotions in his heart. The younger generation of ship girl was a godsend to him, and the thought of having a smaller version of his wife made him unable to stop.

To be honest, Xia Bai didn't have any evil intentions, he just simply liked cute girls, especially the miniature version of the wedding ship.

In the past, Xia Bai wanted Akagi, Little Akagi and himself to take a photo of the family of three, but they always refused. Now he finally has the chance.
