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

Ke Wei rolled her eyes at Xia Bai, wiped away her tears, hugged his arm and said, "Since the commander likes it, how about I wear it every day?"

Women dress up to please themselves. Whatever Xia Bai likes about her, she will show him the best part of herself, even if that part is a little strange.

"Really?" Upon hearing this, Xia Bai's joy was beyond words and he asked immediately.

"Of course it's fake! But...if you play with Kewei all day, you never know, I might agree~"

With such conditions, Xia Bai patted his chest and agreed.

"Okay, no matter where you want to go today, I'll accompany you to the end."

"You said that yourself, Commander."

"Well, I said it myself."

“No regrets allowed.”

"I will never go back on my promise."

"That awesome guy wants to go to Sanders' concert."

"..."

Xia Bai didn't know where Sanders would hold his concert, but he knew it definitely wouldn't be at the Royal Ballroom.

With cold sweat, Xia Bai said stiffly: "How about we just stroll around the Royal Palace?"

"No." Rejecting Xia Bai's suggestion, Kewei said pitifully, "Commander, didn't you just promise me everything? Why are you going back on your word now? Don't worry, it's not far away. We can get there soon as we deploy the RX-02."

Well, it was all his fault for agreeing so readily just now. It was all his fault for not being able to resist the temptation of beauty. Since Kewei said so, Xia Bai could only nod.

Kewei cheered, didn't make any further preparations, simply washed up and walked out of the room with Xia Bai.

About twenty minutes later, Sheffield knocked on the door with a plate in his hand.

"Miss Awesome, this is Sheffield. May I ask if the master is awake?"

Seeing that there was no movement in the room, Sheffield pushed open the door and walked in while saying "I'm sorry", then looked at the empty bed and fell into deep thought.

Where did you go?

Chapter 40 The Forgotten One...

On the Royal Beach.

With the morning breeze still ruffling the corners of his clothes, Xia Bai stretched out his hand, unfolded the RX-02, and climbed into the cockpit with Kewei.

After adjusting his position in the driver's seat, Xia Bai skillfully activated the system and turned to look around at Kewei and said, "Did you bring your airsickness pills? Don't vomit again."

Xia Bai still remembers vividly the awesome performance in the Battle of Port William. If it weren't for the sudden reliability of the subsequent glory, it would be hard to say what the outcome would have been.

Seeing the undisguised mockery in Xia Bai's eyes, Ke Wei immediately understood that the other party was teasing him. He grabbed Xia Bai's neck with both hands and shouted, "Commander, stop talking nonsense. Last time, I just felt like vomiting because I wasn't used to it and the cockpit was small."

Faced with such terrible specious arguments, Xia Bai naturally would not argue with her. He would never do such a stupid thing as reasoning with a woman again, especially a girl who was angry and embarrassed.

Turning his head and staring at the system startup page, Xia Bai wanted to see what kind of trouble would happen this time.

Just as Xia Bai thought, after the words RX-02 appeared, the light screen burst into a white light, replaced by 'Pale nightmare', and then entered the system normally.

Pale nightmare? I don't know what it is. Why not take this opportunity to try it with Kewei? Seeing that RX-02 has a new form, Xia Bai immediately wanted to try it, but he quickly rejected the idea of ​​not doing so.

Judging from the consequences of the last time he and Sirius started the Fate of Sirius, if he and Kewei really tried to start the Pale Nightmare now, they would just have to lie in bed all day and not go anywhere.

"Hey... Hey, what was that white light just now, Commander?" Kewei exclaimed in surprise as her eyes were irritated by the sudden white light. She remembered that there was no such strange light when she and Guanghui boarded the RX-02 before.

"Well, didn't I tell you last night at the banquet that my ability is to change the form of RX-02 after linking with the spirit of the ship girl?"

Without even turning his head to explain, Xia Bai clicked on a list called Evolution in the system, pointed at the light screen and said, "Look, after Kewei linked himself to me, he had this form called Pale Nightmare."

Following Xia Bai's finger towards the light screen, Kewei raised his eyebrows slightly and reached out to pinch Xia Bai's face: "Forget about the pale nightmare or anything like that. Commander, first explain to Kewei why there are four names."

She always believed that only she, Sirius and Xia Bai had established a spiritual connection.

"That's right, Sirius's Fate Sirius, the terrible pale nightmare, Sheffield. Although I haven't established a link with her, her God of Radiance was the first to appear."

"What about this? Whose Utopia Butterfly is this? Commander, who in the Royal Family did you secretly seduce? Tell me!"

Pointing at 'Papillon utopique' on the light screen, Kewei looked furious, but Xia Bai was not scared at all, because Kewei's slightly chubby face made such an expression so cute.

Well... she had established a mental link with Xia Bai before dawn, and Xia Bai had been staying with her since then, so the other party established a mental link with her earlier than her.

When Kewei thought of this, she couldn't help feeling jealous. She was obviously the one who knew Xia Bai first, so she could accept that she was second, but she couldn't accept that she was third at all.

After comforting Kewei for a while, Xia Bai explained to her softly: "I met the Utopia Butterfly in my dream..." He suddenly stopped here and his pupils contracted.

Who was it? He vaguely remembered that she was an intelligent yet slightly confused ship girl, but now he couldn't remember her name, or even what she looked like. His memories were all blurry.

It was as if my memory was cut off out of thin air, leaving a gap. No... it was not a problem of memory, but the other person's existence was erased by something.

"The ship girl I met in my dream? Commander, if you want to find a reason, you have to find a good one. Don't think Kewei is easy to fool." Kewei was very dissatisfied with Xia Bai's explanation. When he was about to say something, he saw her covering her head in pain, with two lines of tears streaming down her cheeks.

"Commander...what's wrong with you?" She was nervous and immediately hugged Xia Bai from behind and asked softly. Kewei always felt that Xia Bai was a very strong and reliable person. No matter what injuries he suffered, he could endure the pain and keep fighting.

He was like that, but now he was crying. Something terrible must have happened.

Feeling the pain in Xia Bai's mental fluctuations, Kewei, as the link ship girl, also became sad: "Commander, is Kewei making things difficult for you? Don't cry, okay? Kewei won't question you anymore."

"No... It's not Kowei's fault. I can't remember... I can't remember the ship girl who had a mental link with me, her name, her appearance, and what she said... I don't remember it at all."

Xia Bai didn't want to show such an embarrassing look in front of Kewei, but he could no longer sense the existence of that ship girl in the mental link. Sadness, pain and self-blame made him unable to stop crying.

Only the Utopian Butterfly on the light screen can prove that all this is not his fantasy, and that the ship girl really exists.

"Don't think about it if you can't remember it. Commander, don't force yourself like this."

"I... okay, I won't think about it anymore." In order to prevent his mental fluctuations from infecting Ke Wei, Xia Bai could only keep this matter as a question deep in his heart.

He took a deep breath and exhaled heavily. The sadness in his heart slowly dissipated. Xia Bai patted his face and revealed a smile that was uglier than crying.

"I'm much better now. I'm sorry to have worried you... We've wasted so much time. Let's leave now, otherwise we won't be able to catch Sanders' concert."

After saying that, Xia Bai held the propulsion lever with both hands and turned on the engine switch. RX-02's eyes flashed with blue light, and the four wing-shaped propellers behind it began to operate.

But Xia Bai's next move was stopped by Kewei. She held Xia Bai's hands, with worry in her chocolate-colored eyes.

"No, I won't go to Sanders' concert, Commander...Xia Bai, you are in so much pain, I don't want to ask you to go so far anymore."

"But..."

"No buts, let's just relax near the Royal Palace. Don't forget that you have to listen to something terrible today, Xia Bai."

Seeing the girl's unyielding look, Xia Bai nodded slowly.

"Ah."

Then he grasped the thrust rod and pushed it forward. The thruster sprayed out blue flames, and the RX-02 rose rapidly and flew in a random direction.

Chapter 41 Look, there is a lone breaker here

In the dark and silent deep sea.

A black crack gradually expanded, and a pale figure walked out from it. He looked up at the sky through the sea, with a faint light flashing in his eyes.

"Although the direction of travel is a little wrong, there are some errors compared to the calculations."

"But the plan is still going perfectly, and I came out of the royal family... hehe~"

"RX-02, the key to evolution is in your hands."

"Let me observe your power carefully..."

"The target has been confirmed. The 'host' order has been issued. The test has begun. All units are heading to the target area."

The huge jellyfish behind the pale figure flashed with a strange and fantastic light, and in the freezing cold sea water, pairs of orange and yellow eyes lit up.

......

The atmosphere in the cockpit was very silent. After experiencing the changes just now, Xia Bai was no longer in the mood to chat. He could only fly the RX-02 aimlessly.

Kewei didn't know what to say. She really wanted to liven up the atmosphere and make Xia Bai happier, but she didn't know where to start as she didn't understand many situations.

However, in order to help Xia Bai get out of his sadness, Ke Wei thought about it and said in a cheerful voice: "Commander, does the Destiny Wolf really look like Barbatos?"

"I heard from Warspite that it has the iconic wolf howl of Barbatos' wolf king form. If this is Barbatos, then what is Sheffield's Radiant God?"

"I am also very curious about what the Pale Nightmare is. If possible, I want the RX-02 to become a protagonist machine like the Sea Cow Gundam."

"What do you think, Commander?"

"Reason is scary, don't keep silent."

After hearing the terrifying voice, Xia Bai came back to his senses. Although he had been trying not to think about the ship girl in his dream, he couldn't help but think about that as he flew.

After all, losing a ship girl in his mental power is an indelible memory for the commander. This pain will accompany him for the rest of his life, but he can't remember anything about her. Under such a contradiction, Xia Bai's mind can't concentrate.

"Ah... Sorry I was distracted just now. What did you say, Kewei?"

"Awesome is asking the commander what kind of Gundam the Pale Nightmare is."

"I don't know until it's unfolded. Destiny Wolf only looks a bit like Barbatos. Besides, how can you be sure it's a Gundam? What if it's some other robot?"

Kewei was very happy to find that Xia Bai started to pay attention to her, and continued to talk about this topic: "So what does the commander hope the pale nightmare will be like."

Hearing this, Xia Bai turned his head and looked Kewei up and down, revealing a malicious smile: "If it is Kewei, it should be a Gundam like the Angel of Death, or maybe a Gundam like the Penelope."

Commander, do you like this? After hearing what Xia Bai said, Ke Wei kept thinking about the appearance of the two Gundams in her mind, and then she became furious, realizing that Xia Bai was teasing her body shape.

"Okay, Commander, you actually said that Kewei is fat, but Kewei was asking you seriously."

"Stop pinching me, stop pinching me, we are still in heaven." Feeling the girl's anger, Xia Bai wondered if what he said was so obvious that he was discovered by the other party so quickly.

It seems that Kewei cares a lot about his body shape. I remember he once said in self-deprecation that he was a fat dinosaur.

"Hmph, if we weren't in the sky, Kewei would have to let the commander know what you can and cannot say." Pulling his hand back, Kewei snorted and decided to find an opportunity to teach Xia Bai a lesson about his talkativeness.

After a while of playing around, Xia Bai was no longer worried and in a much better mood. He said sarcastically, "Yes, yes, thank you, Lord Kewei, for forgiving me. I am overwhelmed by your magnanimity."

But Kewei didn't seem to notice that his tone was a little strange. She played with her hair and said coquettishly, "You have to praise Kewei more before Master Kewei will forgive you."

Xia Bai naturally agreed and continued to list her formidable advantages, praising the girl so much that she lowered her head in embarrassment.

Just as he continued to praise Kewei with corny words, he accidentally discovered a red dot on the RX-02's radar.

This is...Siren!

After finding out that he was not mistaken, Xia Bai said to Kewei behind him: "Hold on, there are sirens nearby, let's go see what's going on."

"No way? This is the royal territorial waters, and the rest of us have already swept the area, so there shouldn't be any sirens appearing."

Staring at the red dot scanned by the radar, Xia Bai looked a little serious: "Don't forget how the Royal Family was attacked the day before yesterday. Don't be lucky."

"Of course, maybe the retreating sirens got lost. Anyway, let's prepare for battle."

Seeing Kewei's nervous look, Xia Bai made another joke to try to liven up the atmosphere, then pushed the thrust rod to the bottom and quickly approached the red dot on the radar.

In less than a moment, Xia Bai and Kewei discovered a Breaker floating alone on the sea, motionless.

"Uh... why is there only one strange Breaker? Is there some trap?" The alert Kewei expressed his opinion to Xia Bai.

She always felt something was wrong. There was only one Breaker on the calm sea, but no corresponding escort team. It was too strange and it seemed like a trap.

However, Xia Bai decided to trust his awesome intuition and did not hastily attack the Breaker. Instead, he floated in the air and observed carefully.

Seeing that the radar had only detected this one red dot after scanning several times, Xia Bai could not help himself. The belligerent genes in him surged and filled his whole body. Staring at the Breaker below, Xia Bai said in a deep voice: "The radar cannot be wrong. There should be only one Siren here. I think we should kill it directly."

"Besides, this is the royal territorial waters. Even if there is a trick, with the high maneuverability of the RX-02, we can quickly leave the battlefield. Elizabeth, who heard the gunfire, will definitely send carrier-based aircraft out to check the situation."

After listening to Xia Bai's analysis, Kewei also felt that it was a feasible solution. The Royal Navy would fight every enemy they met. It was impossible for him to pretend that he did not see the Breaker and let it wander around in the Royal waters. It would be too embarrassing to run back without firing a shot, and he would be laughed at by his royal colleagues.

Thinking of this, Kewei met Xia Bai's eyes and nodded: "Let's do as the commander says, but we can keep a hand just in case."

"It doesn't know that the fearsome one is also in the cockpit. I will suddenly release the carrier-based aircraft after the RX-02 approaches it, just like in Port Wilhelm."

Since the tactics have been discussed, Xia Bai didn't say anything more and just charged forward.

With the sound of air vibration, RX-02 swooped down from the sky like a falcon, revealing its sharp claws.

Chapter 42 Xia Bai: Terrible, save!

Along with the sound of the mecha's braking, the RX-02 was seen hanging upside down on the Breaker's head and hitting it hard, then flipping the body and pressing it under it, and the beam cannon hanging on the waist hit the opponent at close range.

"It's not over yet!"

Seeing that the Breaker had not reacted yet, Xia Bai roared, pulled out the magazine compartment start switch with his left hand, and kept operating it.

Metal boxes popped out from the left and right arms of RX-02, and "rain of arrows" were fired from them. The Hell Rockets flew around in the air and all hit the Breaker.
