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

Moreover, Observer Zero's backup plan provides a standard of five personnel, which means that if Xia Bai really loses and has to go to the [Host], five ship girls can be allowed to accompany him.

Besides, as the arbitrator of Empress, few people would say anything if he brought a ship girl back.

With his hands on his abdomen, Sheffield stood up politely, bowed slightly and said, "Thank you."

"Come on, I'm not used to your etiquette." Waving his hand, Empres said.

For her, taking Sheffield to the [Mainframe] was just a trivial matter.

Sheffield opened his mouth and swallowed the subsequent words of thanks. He turned to look at Xia Bai on the other side, his eyes full of worry.

It seems that it was not Empress who drained the mental power, so who did it?

My master, why hasn't he woken up yet?

The disastrous defeat of the battle cast a fog of doubt over Sheffield's mind.

Seeing Xia Bai unconscious, Enpres's pink eyes flickered, and he held his face with one hand and said, "There's no need to stay here for too long. If he doesn't wake up later, we'll go out."

"In this case where the mental power is drained, it would be better to let the observer Zero take a look."

Nodding, Sheffield stroked Xia Bai's face with his tender hands, gently wiped his sweat, and fell into silence.

"You love him."

After a pause, Sheffield continued to wipe the sweat off Xia Bai, and asked without turning his head: "Are you talking about me?"

"Otherwise, there's only Yu and you here."

Wearing high heels, Enpress walked to the driver's seat, folded her plump legs together, carefully observed Sheffield's movements, and slowly said:

"Unlike the shipgirls, we Antix are born with strong bodies and spirits, and we wield weapons that bring disaster to the world."

"We are powerful, far more powerful than humans can imagine."

Although she didn't quite understand what Empres meant by showing off his power at this time, Sheffield responded with good maid etiquette: "Indeed, before the master showed up, we thought the Elite Sirens were the most difficult among the Sirens."

"But the subsequent appearances of the Siren of Wisdom, the Arbitrator, and the Supreme...are completely beyond our comprehension."

"In just a year or so, the world has changed dramatically..."

Most people in the world believe that they can rely on the ship girls and the Maritime Administration to keep the Sirens out on the sea. As long as they don't go to dangerous coastal cities, they can live their lives as usual.

It’s not that they are ignorant or indifferent, but that there is no way to change.

Human weapons are ineffective against Sirens. This is not a problem that can be solved by ordinary people joining the army out of enthusiasm. The backbone of the world is only the commander.

Everyone wants to drive the Sirens out of this world and achieve peace, but the difference in numbers forces humans to adopt a passive defense rather than an active offense.

In the past decade or so, except for the corporate-planned Takors all-sea attack plan, there has never been a battle in which humans stood tall as the victor.

Many people have the will but not the strength, and can only numb themselves and live in a daze, until Xia Bai appears and drags the world into a higher level of battle.

The bitter victory in the grand battle did not scare humans. This was the first time since the appearance of the Sirens that they defended the world with their own strength, even though their opponents were not the Sirens.

In just one or two months, more and more people in Takors signed up to join the army, and the vortex of war gradually spread. Sheffield didn't know whether this change was good or bad.

She only knew that the appearance of her master had caused a huge storm in this world that was on the verge of destruction.

"Change..." Empres raised his head and sighed, "It's the same for Antix."

"The Supreme and Humble has lost his soul, the Arbiter companions have returned, and the Alien God who has not appeared for a long time suddenly appears..."

"Xia Bai has brought earth-shaking changes not only to you, but also to us, hehe."

With a meaningful smile, Empres continued, "You were able to resist so stubbornly for so many years simply because we didn't want to get serious."

"Because we are a testing ground?" Sheffield wiped his hands with a handkerchief, sat next to Xia Bai and asked in a cold voice.

"That's right. The central node has imposed restriction modules on the mass-produced models that were deployed. Theoretically, they can only exert about half of their strength, and the elite models are even restricted from flying."

"Moreover, the personnel deployed from the central node are used to collect energy and study data. The personnel who are actually used for combat are all in the annihilation ring."

Hearing this heavy news, Sheffield pursed his lips, suppressed his shock, and said calmly, "Why are you telling me this?"

"These things are not secrets. You should go to the [Host] with Xia Bai. It is better to get to know us Antix earlier than to know nothing at all."

Considering that this was indeed the case, Sheffield continued to ask bluntly, "Anticus only has four mechanisms, and what do they represent?"

In response to Sheffield's questions, Empress told him everything he knew and briefly told him some information about Antix.

In this way, time passed by minute by minute as the two of them asked and answered questions. After about half an hour, Xia Bai still maintained a sleeping state with steady breathing.

After checking the time, Empresyu pointed at the sleeping Xia Bai and said with a smile, "Now you understand why Observer Zero and Yu care so much about this man."

Sheffield hummed softly and did not continue asking. Empres had told her enough and she needed to digest it carefully.

Idealism and evolution, emotion and cognition...these are what Antikes pursues, and the reasons why they pursue these things.

It is to preserve more worlds from the hands of destructive creatures and reverse the tragedy that the Creator once experienced.

Chapter 311: Admit Defeat Frankly

It's ridiculous to say that Antix used various worlds as his own testing grounds and countless lives as "experimental subjects". His fundamental purpose was to protect them.

Although this "protection" process is too bloody and violent, and does not take into account the wishes of all living beings in the world.

The strong will not pay attention to the wailing of the weak. When the gap in strength is too great, the weaker side has no rights at all.

Look at these arbitrators. All they have experienced in their time is missions and killings. They are indifferent to everything.

Sheffield knew very well why the arbitrator, Enpress, was willing to say these things even though he was obviously very weak.

This was all because of the existence of their master, because Xia Bai was powerful enough, so powerful that Antikes did not dare to act rashly, and they fell to the ground from their position high above the sky.

Is it good to keep the world from being destroyed?

Is it evil to transform the life in the world into experimental subjects?

It is impossible to distinguish Antikes's ideas simply from the perspective of good and evil.

Sheffield knew very well that he had no right to blame the other party for using each world as a testing ground, and Antix would not care about the emotions of the weak.

If you have the strength, beat them into the dust and then have an equal dialogue with them.

Seeing Sheffield lowering his head in thought, Empres was not in a hurry to leave the subspace. He gently poked Xia Bai's face with his fingers.

The first time she met Xia Bai was when they were fighting against Rongrong in Fulk City. At that time, Empres only knew about this person from Steliancus.

Since most of the information could be erased by Observer Zero, Empress simply thought that Xia Bai might be the "key" and did not take him seriously.

After all, the evolution of Sternkus might just be an accident, and no one knows whether she evolved because of Xia Bai.

However, the battle between Tsukuyomi and Tolerance really opened Empres's eyes, and made her believe that Xia Bai was the only hope that Antiks had been searching for.

With blurred pink eyes, Empres poked Xia Bai's face and asked softly, "What is love to you shipgirls?"

"We at Antix barely have any emotions associated with it."

Glancing at Enpres, Sheffield replied seriously: "Everyone has a different definition of love. For me, love is being with the master."

"If you really want to understand love between men and women, you can ask Sirius."

If the love between him and his master is a trickle of water that comes naturally, then Sirius is a storm and waves that will accompany him through life and death.

No matter how uncomfortable Sheffield felt, he had to admit that the story of Sirius and Xia Bai was more worthy of Empres' exploration.

"Sirius?"

Compared to the beautiful girl with short silver hair, the wild and ferocious white mecha left a deeper impression on Enpress.

"The first appearance of Mecha-God, Fate Sirius, spiritual connection... Just as you said, it's a good idea for me to ask Sirius. By the way, I can also seek answers from Observer Zero."

"I don't think these are very reliable. You might as well read more girls' comics."

"?"

"Owner!"

Seeing Xia Bai open his eyes, Sheffield's cold eyes revealed joy, and he quickly stepped forward and squeezed Empress aside.

"I feel like I've been sleeping for a while..." Looking around, Xia Bai yawned and said, "Is this the interior of the Tianting? Did we lose?"

Hearing this, Sheffield lowered his head in shame and said in a voice as thin as a mosquito's hum: "Well, Sheffield lost. He failed to delay the master's five minutes of rest time."

Patting Sheffield's head, Xia Bai comforted him gently, "If you lose, you lose. It's no big deal. No one can guarantee winning every time."

But Empres interrupted and said, "This is no small matter. According to the agreement between you and Observer Zero, if you lose to Yu, you must go to the [Host] for a while."

"Ok??"

Seeing Xia Bai's doubtful voice, Empres's pretty face turned cold, and he asked seriously: "This is an agreement, you don't want to regret it, do you?"

They had already investigated what kind of person Xia Bai was, and they knew it was possible that he was capable of cheating.

Shaking his head, Xia Bai smiled and said, "I'm just surprised that it only took a while. I thought it would take forever."

With a sneer, Enpress played with the ends of his hair and said, "I would like this deadline to be extended to forever. Will you agree?"

"Well, if everyone goes, it's not impossible..."

Xia Bai had told Ling a long time ago that he didn't really mind working for them, it didn't matter where he worked, and besides, he seemed to have been the Siren Emperor in the past.

As long as they agree to let him take all the ship girls over, Xia Bai really doesn't care.

After looking at Xia Bai deeply, Enpress memorized this sentence in his mental computer, intending to use it to confront him later.

As for now, Antiks really can't accommodate so many ship girls, not because of lack of space, but because of the Judge's gaze.

If it's just one or two, they can hide it and the other party will turn a blind eye. But if there are too many, it's a completely different story. The judge will definitely ask about it.

And in Zero's opinion, Xia Bai's trip to the [Host] this time was going to be done quietly and without any big fanfare.

"Anticus is not a monolithic group at the moment. Although it is different from superficial things like fighting for power, each leader has his own code of conduct and purpose. Bringing so many ship girls back will cause conflicts between Judge and Observer Zero."

"How long will I be gone then?"

"One year at most."

Nodding, Xia Bai stood up from the driver's seat and sighed pretentiously: "One year...by then my biological age will be two years old."

A row of black lines appeared on his forehead. Enpress didn't know what to say to this unreasonable guy.

He simply pretended not to hear Xia Bai's lament about his age, and put one hand on his shoulder and the other on Sheffield's shoulder.

"Get ready, we're going back."

After saying that, the three of them, along with the Tianting, disappeared into the subspace. Not long after Xia Bai and the others disappeared, the subspace slowly shattered and turned into nothingness.

......

'Whoosh—'

Back inside the Tower of Decor, Xia Bai stretched his body a few times and teased Empress, "Your ability is really convenient. It can also move across worlds. It's a pity that you don't deliver packages."

After taking a look at the surroundings, Empres said dissatisfiedly, "Stop talking nonsense and follow me. Stelenkus and the others should be in the administrative hall."

Shrugging his shoulders, Xia Bai stopped teasing the other party. He held Sheffield's little hand and followed Empress upstairs.

At this time, the administrative hall was very lively...

Chapter 312 Zero's Plan

"The outcome of a battle depends on a single thought. Who dares to claim to be invincible? Who dares to claim to be undefeated?"

"Victory and defeat are common in the military. I am not as skilled as others, that's all."

Sitting next to the RX-01 and CX-21, Basaka said rationally.

After listening to Basaka's explanation, the two men laughed so hard that their eyes were filled with tears.

"Who dares to claim to be invincible? Who dares to claim to be undefeated? Hahahaha, no, my stomach hurts from laughing."

"As expected of you, my 11th brother, you can actually take such a shameful death so seriously."

Faced with the two people's ridicule, Basaka's old face turned red, his lips moved, and he was unable to continue to defend himself.

After all, it is unacceptable and too embarrassing for the Son of Prometheus, who was driving a mecha, to be blown up by a torpedo from a Siren submarine.

The son of Prometheus laughed loudly, causing Bismarck to raise an eyebrow. She supported her chin with both hands, smiled as well, and jokingly said, "Did you hear that, Akagi? You are not the most shameful one in this battle."

Rolling his eyes at Bismarck, Akagi leaned back on the sofa and said unhappily, "How come even the chancellor of our Red Axis has learned to be sarcastic?"

"Bismarck, as an iron-blooded leader, you are not ashamed to be sunk by the Breaker?"

Bismarck took off his military cap and said with an apologetic look, "I'm sorry, I'm not very good at handling relationships with other shipgirls."

Bismarck must have taken the wrong medicine. Why is he in such a good mood today?
