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

Chapter 236: Your Order?

"Ahem, I think..."

Noticing that everyone in the meeting was staring at her, Elizabeth rolled her eyes, coughed a few times, and said, "Xia Bai certainly had his own reasons for doing that, and it wasn't you who were fighting against Enpress."

"I know my subject well. If he is not completely sure, he will not choose to drive the God of Glory, so we just need to prepare ourselves for the battle."

"In this battle, what we need is unconditional trust, faith in each other, and trust in each other... Well, this is what I think."

Seeing Ajax and the others looking thoughtful, Xia Bai gave Elizabeth a thumbs up in his heart, and quickly said, "Yes, I chose the God of Glory for my own reasons. Don't worry, I will win that battle."

"Even if you say so, dear..."

"Don't worry. I've never lost before. I've been preparing for so long. If the God of Radiance can't beat Empres, then the other Mecha Gods can't win either."

Just like that, with Elizabeth and Xia Bai singing the same tune, Akagi and the others, although still worried, no longer dwelled on it and decided to move the meeting to the next stage.

Outside the door, the vanguard still held the hilt of the sword with both hands, guarding the door of the conference room like a sculpture. The sound insulation here was very good, but the ship girl's hearing was not bad either.

Qianwei couldn't say he knew everything that was discussed there, but he did hear it clearly.

It was a great honor to face the Arbitrators with New Jersey and others, and just thinking about that scene made the azure eyes of the forward burn with fighting spirit.

At this moment, King George V, dressed in a red military uniform, came over in a hurry and said to the guards guarding the door: "I am late. Has the meeting started?"

"Well, it's been almost an hour..." Seeing King George V looking anxious, the vanguard first explained the current situation, and then asked in confusion, "I remember that Lord George left before me, why did he arrive only now?"

His face became a little embarrassed. King George V held his hands on his lower abdomen and said rather embarrassedly: "Don't use such names. Do we two really need them?"

A long time ago in the royal family, when Qianwei was still the 'Regent', Qiao Wu was already the leader of the Royal Knights. At that time, the two had a very good relationship and called each other by their names.

Now when he heard the vanguard suddenly call him Sir George, Qiao Wu always felt something was wrong.

The blood in his heart was still surging, and the vanguard's face was filled with a confident smile. He said generously: "How can it be so inconvenient to address someone? Now you are the leader of the Knights, and I am the Knight of the Guards. It is natural for me to call you my lord."

"I never care about my status, I just pursue my own heart!"

"Follow your heart, so you are willing to be Xia Bai's guard knight..." Muttering in a low voice, Qiao Wu raised his head, his beautiful eyes flashing, and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time, Qianwei, you are still so open-minded, I am not as good as you."

Shaking his head slightly, the vanguard did not respond and asked instead, "When does Lord Xia Bai plan to become the commander? I seemed to have heard about some test from Her Majesty Elizabeth yesterday?"

Hearing this, King George V glanced around and found that no one was present. He leaned close to the vanguard's ear and whispered very quietly: "In fact, there are no tests anymore. Logically speaking, any time is fine."

"But Her Majesty Elizabeth has been having a lot of fun with Tolerance recently, and seems to have forgotten about this matter."

Avant-garde: "......"

Could it be that she could forget something that would determine the future of the royal family? Could it be that I was wrong, and Her Majesty Elizabeth is not that powerful?

Guessing what Elizabeth was thinking, the vanguard laughed dryly and said, "Perhaps Your Majesty has her own considerations. By the way, why did Lord George arrive only now?"

"Well, after I changed my clothes, I felt a little hungry, so I made some breakfast for myself..."

At this point, Qiao Wu's face turned slightly red, and he said in a very low voice: "I was eating while cooking, and then I entered the world of food and forgot about coming here..."

This kind of thing would be outrageous if it happened to anyone else, but it was not so strange if it happened to King George V. After all, the vanguard knew that the Grand Master of the Knights had eaten during battle more than once.

Only a ship girl like Qiao Wu can take out snacks while firing and directing.

"Well, I'd better go in first, and we'll talk later." As if he didn't want to talk about such an embarrassing thing anymore, Qiao Wu walked past Qianwei and prepared to push open the door of the conference room.

Unexpectedly, the outstretched hand was intercepted by the vanguard, and the lady of the Royal Guard Knight slowly stood in front of King George V. Facing her confusion, she said seriously: "Lord Xia Bai, I don't want other ship girls to disturb the important meeting."

"Since Lord George is late, don't rush in. Just wait for the result."

With his eyes wide open, Qiao Wu said anxiously, "I was supposed to attend the meeting, but I was late... Qianwei, let me in."

The corner of his mouth curled up, and the vanguard shook his head and said, "No means no, unless Sir George can get Sir Xia Bai's handwritten order."

"Then how can I get the decree?"

"Of course I'll go find Master Xia Bai and explain the situation."

"But Xia Bairen is inside. How can I explain the situation if I don't go in..."

"You can enter if you have the imperial edict. You cannot enter without the imperial edict."

"That's why I have to go in now and explain the situation."

"Where is the decree?"

King George V: "..."

Seeing Qiao Wu clenching his fists with veins popping out, the vanguard couldn't help but snickering, "Hahaha, I'm just kidding, Sir George, don't take it seriously."

Then he moved a few steps to the left to make room for King George V.

"Please... But I don't recommend you to go in for the meeting now. The time has been set. Just wait patiently for the results."

Looking at the door of the conference room and then at the smirking Qianwei, Qiao Wu thought for a moment and accepted Qianwei's suggestion, and started whispering with her outside the door.

......

In the conference room.

After turning off the reality screen, Enterprise picked up the water bottle on the table, took a sip, and said hoarsely, "That's it. If it doesn't make sense, then it's settled."

After waiting for a few minutes and finding that no one raised any objections, the company nodded and waved his hand.

"That's good. Please go back and inform the others to get ready. We will set out in the early morning of five days. This battle concerns the future of this world. I hope you will do your best."

"Meeting dismissed."

Chapter 237 Work and Life

The cold wind was howling and the fluffy snow was flying.

The entire White Eagle Port area turned white. The originally clean road was covered with a two-inch thick layer of white snow, and the trees planted on both sides of the road were covered in silver.

A cold wind blew, and the branches fell down under the weight. Large pieces of snow and frost fell to the ground, making a dull sound.

Such a snowy scene has never appeared since the White Eagle settled in the Takors area. This should be a great opportunity for the little ship girls to have fun and play in the snow.

However, as the war was approaching, the usual laughter in White Eagle Port was gone, and it was filled with seriousness and tension before the war.

"Hiss, hoo——"

After rubbing his hands, Xia Bai blew out hot air into his palms, curled up into a ball, and sat cross-legged next to the kotatsu, shivering and saying, "This weather is really hell. It was fine during the meeting in the morning, but it started snowing heavily in the afternoon."

"Then put on more clothes. We have never experienced such severe cold weather before, and we don't know if we will catch a cold. Bai, please don't let us down at this time."

Like Xia Bai, 03 was curled up in the kotatsu. He held the hot tea in both hands, took a sip carefully, and found it was a little hot, so he quickly stuck out his tongue.

"We won't catch a cold, right? After all, we are so similar to Kanmusu."

While speaking uncertainly, Xia Bai placed his hands on the kotatsu to warm them, and said, "Why don't we inherit the cold-resistant ability of the ship girls... I really envy Belfa and the others who don't feel cold even though they wear thin clothes."

"After all, Son of Prometheus is a prototype, and the researchers at the time only used KanColle as a reference, so it's normal to have flaws."

"I know all this, so I'm just complaining... By the way, where did those researchers get the technology from? Have you found out?"

His expression became serious, and Xia Bai said in confusion: "Akashi told me that it is impossible for humans at this stage to create something like a mecha, let alone combine life with mecha."

"From the panel of our machinery, it seems that they just copied it, and there are many low-level wiring problems."

With his slender white fingers against his cheek, 03 tilted his head and asked, "So, what's the point of this?"

"03Don't you want to know how the son of Prometheus was born? There may be a bigger secret behind this."

To Xia Bai's surprise, 03 shook his head and said calmly, "I don't want to do it at all, and I didn't investigate it. It doesn't matter what happens to this kind of thing."

"It is true that this matter is of great significance, and there may be some secrets hidden behind it, but think about it carefully, Bai, even if we find out, what will happen? We still have to attack the Solomon Line of Defense."

"Our goal now is the most important thing. We just need to keep doing it without looking back. When we reach the end, all the answers will be revealed naturally."

Xia Bai thought about it and felt that what 03 said made sense. He wondered how that group of researchers made the Son of Prometheus and where did they get the technology from.

These secrets seem important, but in fact they are worthless to them now. They just need to grasp their current goals.

"You see things clearly, which is completely different from me."

"That's why I used to be the leader of the Sons of Prometheus, and you, Bai, weren't." Even though she's no longer a 'sister', 03 still speaks harshly and with sarcasm.

"Oh, right, 03, you're not a leader anymore." Xia Bai said with some sadness, as if reminiscing about the past, "Big brother is back, 16 has become a commander like me, and has his own family... It happened within this year, but it feels like a long time ago."

"What's even more terrifying is that I treated 03 as a family member, but you had evil intentions towards me. Ugh, so disgusting!"

Seeing Xia Bai pretending to be funny, 03 couldn't help but kick him with her little feet in the kotatsu, and said unhappily: "You are so shameless to have desires for me, Bai. If you have the guts, don't look at my legs and feet!"

Scratching his head a little embarrassedly, Xia Bai said with a playful smile: "Hehehe, there's nothing I can do. You all know that I don't have much to like, just that little hobby."

"A little hobby? XP is fine."

Mercilessly pointing out Xia Bai's xp, 03 blinked her beautiful eyes, and did not immediately retract her feet from the kotatsu, but placed them on his trouser legs, revealing a devilish smile: "It's cold, right? Do you want me to warm you up?"

Being alert, Xia Bai stood up straight and said with a gentlemanly look, "No need. I just came back from training with Sheffield. Actually, my body is still warm now."

A man who is not moved by beauty is an upright, noble and upright man. Cricket 03 is just a cricket, how can it disturb his heart?

"Really? But Bai's hand doesn't seem to agree. It makes me a little itchy~" With a sweet tone, 03 stretched out his other leg and gently fiddled with his plump toes.

"Well, this is an instinctive reaction of habit. I think you should understand me, 03." Xia Bai secretly glanced at the snow-white jade feet in his hands, gently pinched them twice, and changed the subject, "I found that you have never been particularly concerned about dressing up, 03, why don't I help you decorate."

"What kind of decorations does Bai know? Did he learn to paint his nails from Sheffield?"

Xia Bai felt a little ashamed when 03 saw through his little trick, but he still said calmly: "03, don't underestimate it. This is a big deal. I can guarantee that no ship girl in the entire White Eagle Port area can paint better than me."

With a sweet laugh, 03 held her cheeks, her eyes revealing anticipation, and said slowly: "Well, since you are willing, of course I am willing to enjoy the exclusive treatment of Sheffield."

After getting 03's reply, Xia Bai nodded, took out a series of "work" tools from the ship's space, and began to think about what color to paint.

Just as he himself said, there is a lot of knowledge involved here. Although the girl's feet are not exposed and are a relatively private part of her body, it is this kind of private beauty that is the most touching.

When applying nail polish, one should not only consider the shape and size of the feet, but also the appearance, figure and temperament. For example, if you want to be like Akagi, you cannot apply cold colors.

If you really apply blue nail polish, it won't make you ugly, but it will dilute the girl's original beauty. Forcing a sense of contrast is not necessarily a good thing. It is best to use tacky bright red or vermilion, which can greatly enhance the temperament of the red fox.

On the contrary, Kaga cannot use bright warm colors, but needs to be matched with darker colors, such as azure blue and sky blue.

For the naturally beautiful ship girls, black is the most versatile color combination, and even the Radiance is quite suitable for it.

In short, fighting is just work, and painting nail polish is life. As the saying goes, it is always good to have many skills, and Xia Bai, a foot fetishist, also enjoys this.

Chapter 238 The Purifier Returns!

In the corner room of the Sakura Empire dormitory.

Feng Xiang and the Purifier sat cross-legged around the warm kotatsu, eating royal snacks and talking about the Solomon Line.

Of course, it was just Feng Xiang who was talking and the Purifier who was listening. After all, the Battle of Solomon had nothing to do with her, and she would not go in as a combatant.

But Feng Xiang was her good friend, so even though she wasn't very interested in this, she still acted as if she was listening and nodded frequently.

After a long time, the Purifier put down the drink in his hand, hesitated for a moment and whispered: "I have to go back..."

Understanding the deep meaning behind Purifier's words, Feng Xiang nodded and smiled, "Well, Purifier, it's time for you to go back."

Feng Xiang knew that Observer Zero would not keep the Purifier in Sakura Empire forever. This guy would go back one day, and once the battle of Solomon was over, it might be the time for her Siren friend to leave.

With tears glistening in the corners of his eyes, the Purifier lay on the kotatsu and cried loudly: "But I can't bear to leave you, Feng Xiang, wuwuwuwu."

"Separation is for a better reunion, there is nothing to be reluctant about..." Gently stroking the silver hair of the Purifier, Feng Xiang blinked and said mischievously, "And you are not reluctant to part with me, but those snacks and games, right?"

As if something was poked at his heart, the Purifier's crying stopped abruptly. He looked up at Feng Xiang awkwardly and said with a grin, "Hehehe, you found out."

"After I go back, Master Ling will definitely assign me a task. Then I won't be able to eat, drink and have fun every day like I do now."

"Who knows, I might be assigned to work in other testing sites..." At this point, the Purifier's eyes revealed a lonely look, and his silver-white hair became dull.

Another testing ground represents another world. No matter which side wins the Battle of Solomon in the end, the Purifiers have no reason to stay in this world.

To be able to cross the world at any time and anywhere, only someone at the level of an arbitrator can do it, and she is just a small purifier and it is impossible for her to do that.

In fact, the Purifier is quite sad, but is just using this playful method to cover it up.

The ship girls of the Sakura Empire were all very nice to her. She made many new friends when she came to the White Eagle Port Area, and Feng Xiang always took care of her. If Observer Zero had not issued a notice, she really didn't want to go back to the [Host].

"Other worlds... There's no chance for us to meet again."

"Ah."

The two of them fell silent, and the room fell into silence.

After a long while, the Purifier spoke up: "I have thought it through. Since I want to go back, I will go back happily. Such a sad atmosphere is not suitable for me."

The Purifier raised his little face, his eyes full of fighting spirit, and continued: "Before we part, I can still do something for you."

"You don't have to do anything. Just go back obediently. With your current understanding of emotions, you will be able to accept evolution when you go back."
