I'm in the azure sky, and I have an anti-fraud app.

"Hehe, don't worry, I didn't plant anything on the Commander. I'm not like Akagi or Taihou~"

Li Wei's examination was even faster.

"Alright, we can't find anything right now. Let's go back and do a thorough check-up." Richelieu put a bowl of "heart-shaped bibimbap" into his mouth: "Mmm, so delicious~"

"Phew... Alright, Commander, let's go see a movie~"

The two left the restaurant and, guided by Richelieu, headed straight for the movie theater.

"A movie? Is it the Western one? Is it still playing?"

"No, it's a movie that we Iris made ourselves. We just finished editing it these past few days, so we thought we'd invite the Commander to watch it together~"

Li Wei looked at the museum getting closer and closer: "...How come I've never heard of it?"

Richelieu led Li Wei into the museum's elevator: "We didn't do it in the simulator because the White Eagles have been using it all along, so we changed locations and did a real shoot."

"Oh?"

Richelieu pressed the button for the upper floors of the museum, and only then did Levi notice that there was a movie theater on the upper floors of the museum.

Richelieu: "It's an art film, so there aren't many requirements for the location."

"An art film, huh?" Li Wei breathed a sigh of relief. "As long as it's not a horror film, that's good."

"Commander doesn't like horror movies?"

Li Wei nodded firmly: "I don't like it at all."

“I’ve got it, it won’t be involved again~” Richelieu led Li Wei out and headed straight for the cinema entrance with practiced ease: “B1 section.”

"Okay, area B1."

"Commander, let's go. I booked the whole movie theater, so it'll just be the two of us here, okay?"

Li Wei: ...

Wait a minute, this doesn't look like watching an art film at all!

I think what you're trying to make is an adult film!

Chapter 370 Bell: Commander, you must not break your promise

"Commander, the final part of the movie is out too!"

As a group of people appeared in the office, Li Wei looked on helplessly at the unusually large number of ship girls present today.

Since this is the final part, it's reasonable for all the ship girls who participated before to appear.

"Come on, let's set up the stage!"

“I don’t think you need to make any arrangements at all, since you’re not planning to enjoy the movie anyway.” Li Wei stopped the ship girls from doing anything. “Afterwards, you won’t be cleaning up, and the maids will have to do all that for half a day.”

"I think you should just state your requirements directly, and I'll see if I can meet them."

The ship girls exchanged glances: "That's simple, each of you gets at least one round of ammunition. What do you think, Commander?"

"Not good." Li Wei waved his hand irritably: "Don't you even know how many of you came? There must be more than 20 or 30 of you. Where are you going to get so much ammunition to waste?"

The ship girls knew that this number was indeed a bit unreasonable: "Then Commander, name a number, and we'll see if we can accept it."

Li Wei held out his palm: "Five rounds at most, no more."

"Five shots!"

"We'll split up the five of us!"

"Commander, you wouldn't be..."

Li Wei glared at Bumblebee: "Provocation won't work. If you try to provoke me again, I'll disqualify you from participating."

Bumblebee immediately responded with a triple spiel: "No! Commander, I was wrong!"

"Either you decide on five qualified individuals yourselves, and each person can receive one round of ammunition; or you can discuss among yourselves how to distribute it internally." Li Wei lay calmly in his chair, showing no hurry after taking control of the situation—after all, the ammunition was inside his body, and there was indeed no reason for him to be "threatened" by the ship girls.

The ship girls had no choice but to start discussing it.

"So, has the discussion reached a conclusion?"

"Okay." The ship girls representing the company stepped forward and said, "We've decided to split into five groups. Each group will be allocated one type of ammunition."

"Okay, then it's settled. You can start assigning groups now."

"Wait a minute." Enterprise called out to the commander: "Since we've made concessions, the commander has to grant us a small request."

"any request?"

“Each of us can take down one enemy – that’s not too much to ask, is it? If we can’t even meet that, and the sisters have made a wasted trip, then we’ll have to find a way to get our own ammunition.”

"Alright, alright, just one takedown, no big deal." Li Wei said casually, "Let's not stay in the office anymore. Although this office is not small, it is definitely not enough for so many ship girls to set up. Let's go somewhere else."

"Let's go~"

……

in the cinema.

"Commander, how did you find out about this place? I had no idea there was such a private place!"

“You said it was a private matter, of course you don’t know.” Li Wei cleared his throat. “Since we’re here for the movie, we should definitely watch it.”

Li Wei, of course, wouldn't reveal that he had just had an in-depth conversation with Richelieu here yesterday, turning what should have been an art film into an adult film.

Pittsburgh: "Hey, Commander, there's a movie here that we didn't take after the last screening. Shall we watch it?"

“…I’ve seen it, let’s change it.” Li Wei shook his head: “Let’s just show the one you guys made.”

"Oh~" Pittsburgh nodded knowingly, understanding what Levi was hiding: "Looks like the Commander had a tough day yesterday too~"

"...It definitely won't be as tough as it is today." Li Wei watched as the ship girls consciously formed teams, the five groups sitting together whispering and chatting. "If everyone is ready, shall we begin?"

"Get started!"

"Can't wait!"

"Commander, let's start with our group!"

Levi turned off the movie theater lights, randomly found a group in the dark, and discovered that the group consisted of the three sisters from the corporation, plus Indiana and Pittsburgh.

Li Wei: "...Did I pick the hardest one right from the start?"

"It's actually the simplest way~" Bumblebee chuckled. "Enterprise and Yorktown are both the kind of people who are easily embarrassed, and Indiana isn't that obsessed—so Commander, you just need to satisfy my and Pittsburgh's requests~"

"Easier said than done." Levi glared at Bumblebee and used the shared senses skill without hesitation to connect Pittsburgh and Bumblebee's core compartment together—he had already thought it through on his way to the movie theater. He figured that as long as he used this skill, he could destroy both ship girls at the same time, achieving twice the result with half the effort.

Level 2 sensory sharing can be used three times within 24 hours. Li Wei plans to use it once for each group; the remaining two groups will use hypnosis to directly reduce their resilience and make it easier for him to break through.

"Commander, are you planning to take me down first? Sure~" Pittsburgh immediately hugged him: "Let me be the Commander's first trophy~"

"What you're saying sounds a little strange." Li Wei casually pulled Bumblebee over, gesturing for it to come along: "To save others' waiting time, please try to understand."

“Hmm, no problem~” Pittsburgh kissed Levi’s ear: “I don’t think Hornet will have any questions either, after all, so many ship girls… it’s a bit of a challenge for the Commander…”

"You knew that too?" Li Wei immediately escalated the intensity of the war: "Knowing that, you still brought so many ship girls along. It seems that the punishment you received last time wasn't severe enough."

"Isn't this... to see what the Commander's limits are like..." Pittsburgh helped Levy attack Hornet: "Well... if the Commander can win this time too, then..."

"Humph……"

Bumblebee: "...Commander, something feels off to me?"

"What's wrong?"

"You're having an in-depth exchange with Pittsburgh, but I feel like I'm actually there. This is reality, not a simulation, right?"

"Of course it's reality; you were just influenced by the atmosphere." Li Wei casually made up an excuse to brush it off: "Just tell me, were you defeated or not?"

"……Have."

“That’s enough.” Li Wei gestured for Enterprise to take over: “Come on, don’t waste time. Bumblebee’s defense is too low, it’s perfect for practice.”

Bumblebee: ╭(╯^╰)╮

"What do you mean my defense is the lowest?!"

"You were defeated in less than a minute. If you're not bad, who is?" Li Wei ruthlessly mocked, "You're both terrible and love to play."

Bumblebee: ╭(╯^╰)╮

Bumblebee got up, wanting to deliver a fatal blow to Levi, but Yorktown stopped him: "Bumblebee, don't make things difficult for the Commander!"

Bumblebee: QAQ

……

Bumblebee went off to draw circles in the corner, while the Enterprise's defenses were far superior. Without the aid of shared senses, Levi's attacks using only his fingers were indeed insufficient to break through the Enterprise's defenses.

Fortunately, Pittsburgh did not make things difficult for the commander. As soon as it showed signs of defeat, it surrendered and readily gave up its position, allowing Indiana to take over Pittsburgh's position to continue defending against the commander's attack.

"So you've already reached an agreement that Yorktown will accept this ammunition?"

“We were originally planning to see who the commander gave it to; it wasn’t necessarily the last person to receive it.” Indiana even launched a counter-offensive to conserve the commander’s energy: “Besides, I’m confident in myself, hmm…”

Li Wei: "Are you still confident now?"

"...I've lost my confidence."

Indiana was probably too eager to make a name for herself, and as a result, she was caught off guard and a gap in her defenses was found. She became the second fastest ship girl to be destroyed after Hornet, in one and a half minutes.

Yorktown took Indiana's place: "Commander, if you're tired, I can lead the attack."

"Yorktown still cares about me the most." Levi kissed Yorktown's marshmallow. "But don't worry, you guys won't make me tired."

"I'm just worried about your stamina later. Saving some now will increase your chances of winning."

Bumblebee had somehow returned: "Sister, you're totally on the Commander's side now!"

"Is there a problem with me siding with the Commander?" Yorktown rolled her eyes at her youngest sister. "Do you think we're like you, just playing around and not caring about the Commander?"

“Yorktown…” Levi was deeply moved: “I’ll send you the ammunition right away.”

Bumblebee: ╭(╯^╰)╮

……

After letting the ship girls in the first group find a movie to watch on their own, Li Wei went to the second group.

"Your group is... oh, you're grouped by height, right?"

Herring: "...Commander, you're just joking."

“I wasn’t wrong.” Li Wei stood next to the chair, at a height where all the ship girls could enjoy the commander’s main gun. “See? This is perfect! I can also recover some stamina. Let’s see who has the best skills—the ship girl who gets the most points will get the ammunition. But there’s one condition: the competition must be in order.”

Li Wei had initially intended to prohibit malicious competition, but he quickly realized he might have overestimated this group of loli ship girls. Even if they were all combined, they couldn't possibly claim all the main gun slots; there would always be empty spaces.

Since that's the case, Li Wei directly activated his hypnosis skill. His hypnosis skill, which had just been upgraded to level 6, could hypnotize three ship girls at the same time, moderately changing their mindset for up to two hours, and could be used twice a day.

Levi hypnotized the three ship girls in this group who seemed the easiest to defeat, apart from Laffey, allowing them to completely imagine the feeling in their minds just by smell and scent, achieving a simple "sensory connection".

As for Lafite...

There was no need to break her down; she had already fallen asleep under hypnosis.

Li Wei didn't understand, and he said he was deeply shocked.

"Well……"

"Commander... is this the scent from the previous group?"

"Is it because of the movie theater? It seems to be more noticeable than usual..."

Surprisingly, the herring was neutralized simply by its scent, saving Li Wei the trouble.
