Come and connect with me!

"You should have done this a long time ago."

Washington muttered.

Biloxi looked inside this not-so-big residence, which was furnished with a coffee machine, a refrigerator, a round table for dining, and even a kitchen. In another open room, he also saw a piano covered with gauze.

“Are you learning any musical instruments now?”

"No, this belongs to another roommate. She sometimes practices piano here for a while in the afternoon. As my condition gets better, she doesn't stay here as often as before."

White Eagle Enterprise looked at Shimazaki Setsuna who closed the picture book and asked.

"Have you finished your painting, Ms. Shimazaki?"

"Well, I'll go back and fill in the details later and it'll be fine."

Shima Qi Setsuna said a little shyly.

For some reason, White Eagle Enterprise always felt that the way she looked at herself was a little strange. According to Frederick the Great, this seemingly harmless little girl was also a Rubik's Cube ship, and seemed to have a special function. Unfortunately, she couldn't see it at all. She only knew that she seemed to be a fan artist. This time, knowing that she would stay in the room, she found Cleveland and asked her to draw a fan comic with her as the protagonist, and the other protagonist was Cleveland.

When White Eagle Enterprise thought of this, it couldn't help but look at Cleveland's neatly dressed men's suit, but still couldn't tell what she wanted to create.

Hot-blooded comics?

"Roommate? Which Frederick the Great?"

St. Louis took a moment to reminisce and thought of the black-haired woman during the discussion in the command room.

"Yes, it's her. She's much easier to get along with than she looks. She's the one who uses the kitchen most of the time. Even though she seems to dislike me, she's happy to prepare some food and drinks for me. She's a pretty good person, I guess."

White Eagle Enterprise said with a strange expression.

Frederick the Great often pulled her over to try out dishes, so she had to have a midnight snack or afternoon tea in addition to her three meals. Basically, half of the dishes were meat-filled iron-blooded dishes. This always made her worry that after getting used to it, she would change her diet to be more meat-oriented.

“That’s really hard to tell.”

St. Louis tried to imagine the guy who always looked cold towards her staying in the kitchen peeling potatoes, and what she finally imagined was Frederick the Great with a dark face holding a large kitchen knife and chopping the potatoes on the chopping board into paste.

"As for Frederick, she is very good at cooking meat, but that's also because of the commander. If the commander is not here, she won't be so diligent and fast."

Cleveland answered from the side.

"By the way, let me prepare some coffee for you. Come on and sit down. I don't think you are here just to take a look at the company."

Cleveland rolled up his sleeves and walked to the coffee machine while talking to prepare coffee for them. She was obviously an out-and-out beautiful girl, but his joystick was straight, his movements were quick and decisive, and he always had a strange sense of handsomeness, like the prince in the girls' comics who appeared with a whole page of flowers and stars as his background.

Shima Qi Shana looked at Cleveland's back, immediately opened the sketchbook, and wrote quickly with shining eyes.

"Also, I just placed an order for the guys. Snacks should be delivered soon. Let's get together and have a good chat."

Cleveland said briskly.

"moment?"

Altair, who had remained silent the whole time, spoke with a hint of helplessness.

When Shima Qi Shana heard this, he immediately reacted, quickly closed the picture book and stopped looking at Cleveland.

Go back and draw again.

"Is this still possible? It seems that this port area has completely broken away from the limitations of manpower. These little things are really useful and seem very flexible. We really can't underestimate this place at all."

Washington watched the busy scene in Cleveland and couldn't help but sigh.

They act as waiters in the venue and seem to be able to help in the cafeteria or simply cook. If you think about it carefully, if this kind of service technology is willing to be popularized, it can almost completely change the structure of human society.

"That's about right. They're called Manjiu. Strictly speaking, they're also derivatives of the Rubik's Cube research. They're quite intelligent and can be of great help. Without them, our lives wouldn't be that convenient."

Cleveland responded intermittently.

"A derivative of the Rubik's Cube research?"

St. Louis asked, looking confused.

"But why is the derivative of the Rubik's Cube a chicken?"

"Who knows? But we haven't figured out the Rubik's Cube yet."

The two chatted leisurely, and soon there was a knock on the door. Biloxi got up to open the door, and there were four little yellow chickens with large trays on their heads.

[All the snacks and pastries that Cleveland wants are here. Remember to let us know when you are done. 】

A little yellow chicken took out a clipboard and held it up high.

"How do you notify me?"

Biloxi curiously poked the baby's belly with her finger. The little thing felt warm to the touch, like a walking mochi.

[You can get it online. If guests need it, they can always find a dog on the roadside and tell it. If you live here permanently, you can ask Akashi for a terminal. ]

"Wow, they totally get what I mean!"

Biloxi said in amazement.

The barbarian glanced at her sideways, as if looking at a monkey, then hopped into the room with the little yellow chickens and put the snacks on the table. After finishing, he did not forget to look at the number of people here, and only hopped away after confirming that no small boat had slipped in.

"They're not stupid, Biloxi."

Cleveland brought the coffee over and saw that Alice was having a good chat with Washington.

"Anyway, let's have a comfortable afternoon together."

Chapter 386 Purifier Capture Plan

While White Eagle and his party's afternoon tea time went smoothly, the atmosphere in the port command room seemed particularly strange.

"Capture.....Siren?"

Wuming opened his mouth slightly with an expression of surprise and doubt, but Akagi in front of him was unhurried and looked at him calmly.

How did she find out about my interest in sirens?

"Yes, it means exactly what it says. They captured the living Siren. Judging from the Commander's expression, he seems a little surprised."

Akagi said with a smile, and Adam beside her also widened his eyes slightly and then fell into deep thought.

The Sirens were far more terrifying than the Mechanical Life Cores. At their most powerful, they were nothing more than resource stars that could travel freely between the stars. They could almost be considered the aliens commonly seen in human science fiction works - the type that would explode after a team of human adventurers broke into their core and fired two shots with an AK.

The Siren is a very strange thing. It has the ability to communicate with other worldviews. God knows what kind of wealth it can accumulate. If we must make a comparison, then the current Hong Kong area is just its complete monkey version. Apart from the fact that they can both cross other worlds, there is no comparison at all.

"So.....what good would it be for me to catch a siren?"

Wuming thought a lot in that instant, from the bunch of white-haired big sisters to Kirov picking up the saber, he immediately woke up from his fantasy and fell into the cold reality.

Yes, those white furs are cute, but is it appropriate to go to such lengths just to get away with it?

"Commander, do you know the research results of the major camps on sirens in recent years?"

Akagi did not answer Wuming's question immediately, but instead asked a seemingly unrelated question first.

"As far as I know, the major camps should not have made much progress in their research on Sirens. Their purpose and ideas about Sirens are unclear. If anything, they are just some riddlers that appeared on their own."

Wuming recalled briefly and found that the major camps found no convincing explanation about the purpose of the Sirens. The mainstream guess was that these things had problems with their brains and that the mass-produced ones had amazing performance. In some networks that were away from the public eye and only the Rubik's Cube ships could access, these miscellaneous soldiers were highly evaluated and believed that their performance was more than one level higher than the mass-produced ones of the major camps. Generally speaking, they were unmanned automatic attacks, and it would take three to four mass-produced ones to deal with a Siren mass-produced ship. If a humanoid was encountered, the Rubik's Cube ships had to be dispatched. If it was a superior individual with sufficient intelligence that could deploy a mirror sea, then even a whole fleet of Rubik's Cube ships would hardly be able to escape unscathed.

"That's right. They all like to talk about fate, history, trends and so on. They won't really answer you if you ask them. They can come and go freely on the main island of Sakura Empire, which is shrouded in a barrier and enshrined with a sacred stone. If they really want to attack us, the decapitation tactic alone can easily cause Sakura Empire to collapse."

Akagi spoke slowly and with a look of sorrow.

Wuming realized that something was wrong with the black fox almost instantly and spoke tentatively.

"Could it be that... Lord Akagi has had contact with the Siren?"

"Hmm, isn't this strange? These guys like to provide some technology and then issue missions. They give us something like relying on existing resources to defeat the White Eagle and the Royal Army. It's not just me. As far as I know, all the leaders of all the camps have dealt with the Sirens before."

Akagi said in a playful tone.

"The Iron Blood's biological ship suit is even more interesting. If the commander has the opportunity to see a siren identified as "Observer", he will find that the equipment she carries is almost an upgraded version of the biological ship suit. Or, in other words, the scientist who originally developed the biological ship suit discovered after our investigation that this person did not exist at all. It was really because Iron Blood was already too deeply involved at that time and had no ability to extricate itself."

Wuming thought about it and found that it was true. However, the types of sirens he knew were definitely much more than the black fox in front of him. There were all kinds of seafood, from jellyfish to octopus, which were quite different from the more fantasy-style mechanical ship equipment like Iron Blood.

"Ah, I've gone off topic a bit, Commander. Your understanding of the Sirens is not wrong, but it's not perfect either.

Sirens, especially humanoid sirens, will basically self-destruct after being defeated. After the explosion, their ship equipment will basically be destroyed, and the remaining fragments are not complete. At most, we can try to analyze the composition, but the results of the analysis are not surprising. There is no raw material at all, and it is all artificially synthesized. If we analyze it in depth, we will conclude that there is no place where raw materials are produced on this planet. In other words, once a humanoid siren self-destructs, it has no value. "

Akagi said slowly.

"But, I discovered something interesting by chance."

She nodded to Kaga, who immediately carefully took out a finger-sized fragment from the small bag at his waist.

"This is a special fragment of the Siren that I accidentally found during one of my experiments. It came from a Siren superior being, whose name is unknown and whose origin is unknown. However, it should have had a conflict with the Siren's enemy. Maybe both sides suffered losses, or maybe one side won. It doesn't matter. The key point is this thing."

Akagi placed the fragment on Wuming's desk and motioned for him to take a look.

"Enemy of the Siren?"

Wuming tried to pick it up and have a look. Although it looked like an irregular piece of iron, he could not feel its weight at all. He looked left and right but could not see what was so great about it. This thing was given by Akagi, and Wuming did not want to use force to test its sturdiness, so he just took a look and returned it to Akagi.

"Yes. We have surveillance cameras on many islands and patrol the sea day and night. We found it on a remote reef. We investigated the scene and retrieved videos from the sea area to roughly restore the origin of the fragment."

Akagi looked into the distance and began to recall what had happened that time.

"The video is limited in scope, and only part of the humanoid Siren's ship suit is captured in the video. I'll call it a ship suit for now. The shape of the ship suit is very special, a bit like a black jellyfish, with a fluffy outline on the top and several floating black ribbons at the bottom. Her enemy is a thing whose appearance cannot be seen clearly. They probably fought for less than two minutes. The Siren's enemy left behind gray floating matter, which evaporated quickly, but the part that came into contact with the sea water solidified into this fragment. The Siren disappeared without a trace, leaving nothing behind."

Akagi said this as he picked up the fragments.

"As for the effect of this thing, it's extraordinary. A high-level siren with high intelligence will feel sad when it is within ten meters of this fragment. When the distance is close to eight meters, she will become dazed and fall into a deep sleep, and her ability to transmit signals to the outside world will be cut off. After the stupid siren was affected by this fragment, the [Observer] once found me and asked me if I had seen that stupid siren. Haha, it's really interesting."

Wuming blinked and looked at the head maid. After listening to Akagi's story, the two wives regained their spirits.

"Stupid Siren?"

"Humans have smart people and stupid people, and the Sirens are no exception. After falling asleep, the equipment on the Sirens is almost defenseless. Unfortunately, we don't have the ability to analyze the Sirens' technology, and the Siren was also very stupid. After she was away from the debris, she gradually regained consciousness. I made up an excuse and she believed it."

Akagi chuckled, his eyes showing disdain for that stupid Siren.

Kaga interjected.

"We said she drank some oolong tea, so she passed out and overslept. She naturally believed us and asked us to prepare some oolong tea, saying that she wanted to give it to other sirens to try."

Wuming listened to their descriptions and always felt that this naivety was familiar.

"So, do you know what that stupid Siren's name is?"

Akagi chuckled.

"She is the target that the Siren captured. As for the name..."

She paused and said.

"She calls herself the Purifier."

Chapter 387: Methods to Delay Akagi

Wuming feels a bit messy.

"In other words, we can use the fragments left behind by this Siren enemy to capture the Purifier, and we can do it silently?"

"That's right. As long as you're fast enough, you can get the technical data of the Siren without alerting anyone. Think about it, those white-haired girls can pose a threat to the Rubik's Cube ships even if they are just ordinary soldiers. The best result is that you can get a lot of complete technical data even if you can only find some that you can understand from those technologies that are beyond this era. Of course, we can't always think positively about everything, but at the very least, it can point out the direction for future technological development."

Akagi lowered her voice, her words full of temptation, making people unable to help but follow her thoughts and imagine the beautiful future that made people imagine.

"No price?"

"There is no price. After all, that idiot is easy to understand. Unfortunately, this gift has been in front of me for too long, but I don't have the ability to open the gift box. We in the Sakura Empire still lack technical accumulation. However, I think Guigang District should have such ability."

Akagi said in a bewitching tone, her wine-red eyes seemed to draw people in. At this moment, she looked very much like the peerless enchantress in those mythological stories who captured kings and overturned dynasties.

The head maid moved her lips but still suppressed the urge to speak. This was another decision made by Minato, and she would not try to shake Wuming's decision until he did something stupid.

Hood stared at the black fox with a little vigilance. Compared with the swordplay on the front battlefield, the conspiracy hidden under the table was more disgusting. The ability of the Siren was far beyond the imagination of the ships in this world. If they acted rashly, no one would be able to bear the consequences of failure.

Wuming was also a little hesitant. There was no contradiction between the Siren being very strong and the Purifier being a comedian. Moreover, although the benefits were not small, the risks were also extremely high. Anyone who succeeded in making a small investment for a big gain in the early years would become a synonym for conservatism after getting ashore. After all, this was a world of competition for the worst. Whoever made fewer mistakes would live longer, and the winner certainly could not be a dead person.

He frowned, for the first thing that came to his mind was not the beautiful vision of successfully obtaining a large amount of technology from the sleeping Siren and ascending at the speed of light, but the desperate scene of waking up to find the entire sky filled with cannon muzzles.

"Of course, Commander, you have enough time to think about it... Ah... By the way, everyone in our camp should go back tomorrow to deal with the follow-up matters, and Akagi will await your decision."

Akagi was in no hurry and threw the precious fragment to Wuming. The latter grabbed it and looked at her in surprise.

"The things are here with His Excellency the Commander. Akagi is looking forward to hearing good news from His Excellency the Commander."

After saying that, Akagi stood up leisurely, bowed slightly to Wuming, and then calmly left the command room. Kaga followed closely behind, nodded to those present, and left with Akagi in silence. Neither of them even looked at the fragment.

After a while, when the footsteps of the two sisters became barely audible, Wuming placed the fragment on the table.
