Come and connect with me!

"Akashi? The store? Why didn't she just come to me?"

The so-called things that are not available in the port area are most likely physical game discs, figures, or similar peripherals belonging to this world. There is basically no chance to buy these things. Wuming can help buy them in other worlds, but the entertainment industry in this world is also very developed, and all kinds of game and animation industries are extremely prosperous. I don’t know if it’s because there is always a threat of Siren hanging over your head, all kinds of film, television, animation and games are endless. As far as he knows, Changdao has always wanted to get the so-called more meaningful peripherals manufactured by the manufacturers.

"Well, she seemed to know that her husband was unlikely to agree, so she asked me for help."

Wuming nodded and saw that Noshiro looked a little guilty.

"Good afternoon, dear commander."

Just as he was about to say something, another elegant voice came.

"I'm here for the big supermarket this time... Hey, can you do it for me?"

When Wuming heard this, his eyebrows twitched, and he looked at Hood who spoke, and Mainz who seemed to be coming behind Hood.

"Mainz, what about you?"

He blinked and asked.

"Same as Hood."

The iron-blooded group leader said so.

Chapter 818: Counterattack from Marco Polo

"Cleveland-chan, help me, meow, please, meow!"

"Brie-chan, please help me petition. It would be much more convenient to have more shops in the harbor, meow!"

"Hey, it's Haitian-chan, don't leave, help Akashi apply for the convenience store!"

Near noon, a green cat holding a small umbrella wanted to ask the passing ship girls for help, but only a few were willing to help.

"I say, Akashi, are you sure you can do this?"

Nagashima yawned weakly, looking at the ship girls who were trying to avoid him, and felt that Akashi's previous solemn guarantee seemed to have lost its credibility all of a sudden.

"Nagashima-chan, don't worry, meow. As long as enough people propose it, the commander will definitely agree, meow. Then if Nagashima-chan wants any peripherals, you can come directly to me, meow!"

Akashi's face was full of confidence. As long as the store was open, she would be able to sell more things. As the only store at that time, wouldn't she be able to set the prices as she pleased?

"Well, I don't really care. For now, I'll just look for a picture online and have Manju make it. It seems like it would be a good idea."

Nagashima is a person with some conscience, but not much. It is not difficult to produce finished products in the port area. It’s just that sometimes for enthusiasts, the genuine products do have a unique appeal. If this black-hearted cat can get the genuine products so that she can increase the number of her collection, it would be great, but if not, it is not unacceptable.

"Nagashima-chan, you can't support piracy. If the merchants starve to death, there will be no new products!"

Seeing that Nagashima's attitude was not as firm as he had imagined, Akashi immediately turned into a copyright warrior and wanted to explain to Nagashima the dangers of piracy.

Not far from them, Wuming was walking towards them. Beside him, besides Belfast and Noshiro, Hood and Mainz unexpectedly appeared. Both of them had strange expressions. Beside them, Champagne, Sky Eagle, and even New Jersey had wandering eyes, and seemed a little embarrassed when they occasionally looked at their companions.

"You owe Akashi a favor too?"

"Is it you too?"

The expressions of the several people were different. They had all received help from Akashi in the past. This time, Akashi had predicted Wuming's thoughts, so he used all his favors in one go, trying to get help from these companions who had a close relationship with Wuming. Who would have thought that they would meet at the same time? Now everyone knows the little thoughts of this black-hearted cat.

"Commander, are you free now?"

Wuming was walking towards Akashi when he suddenly heard Marco Polo's voice. He looked and saw the Pope wearing yesterday's maid outfit, standing coquettishly by the bushes. Her quiet appearance actually gave her a bit of girlish docility.

"Wait a minute, give me three minutes, I'll beat the cat."

Wuming smiled and said, moving his neck as he spoke.

No one in the port area has the heart to run a shop. In fact, there is really no need to add more stores. Food, clothing, housing and transportation can all be produced directly through Manchu. Except for a few specific ship girls, such as Nagashima Ayanami, the rest of the people basically do not lack this purchasing demand.

"Yeah, I see. See you later then."

Marco Polo raised the corner of his mouth, as if he had confirmed something, and turned away with a satisfied expression.

Wuming never hesitates to think about such smart guys, because if he turns a blind eye to them, they can really turn the entire port area into a mess.

"Marco, why...is she here?"

"It should be related to Akashi, Master."

The head maid frowned slightly when she saw the unusual side of the Pope. She couldn't understand the purpose of this guy's sudden appearance.

"I know that, but she just came back yesterday after all, why would she be involved with Akashi?"

Without a clear purpose, any action would be confusing. Wuming looked at Marco Polo's inexplicably cheerful back and always felt that he lacked too much key information.

"Commander, do you need champagne? Would you like to go check it out?"

The cold champagne asked in a low voice.

"That's not necessary. Let's go ask Akashi first. We can always find some clues."

Wuming didn't expect that he just felt something was wrong at the beginning, but when he went out, he met a few ship girls who came over intermittently. When so many people gathered, he could be sure that Akashi was behind it. And each ship girl's words were that they owed Akashi a favor, and she asked them to stop by the command room to mention it. But it seemed that something went wrong with this little plan, because there were too many people. The moment multiple ship girls met Wuming, even a fool could sense that something was wrong.

Bringing the ship girl over, Wuming could see that Akashi's expression gradually became stiff, and she seemed to have noticed something was wrong.

"Yohoo, Commander, good afternoon, meow!"

Akashi waved his sleeves obediently, made a cute look, and blinked hard.

"Good afternoon, Akashi, don't you want an explanation?"

Wuming looked at the ship girl beside him, then glanced at the well-behaved Akashi, and asked.

"Why did you let all these people come to me when you didn't even come directly."

Every ship girl has indeed received the favor of this black-hearted cat. In this port area without currency, Akashi was very keen to find something that could replace currency, and in the form of favors, let them give him help when necessary.

"Meow... This, this has many, many valid reasons meow!"

Akashi stammered, his eyes rolling around as he tried to come up with a reasonable excuse.

"Because, the commander will definitely not agree, but in fact, everyone still has a demand for props from the outer world, meow. We can't just ignore these companions because there are few people, meow!"

Although he spoke discontinuously at first, as his thoughts opened up, Akashi immediately found a reason that seemed pretty good.

"really?"

Wuming looked at the ship girl next to him and always felt that there were loopholes in her statement.

"Really, really, meow. Akashi asked everyone to come over here just to let the Commander know everyone's shopping needs, meow. The port area is less than 10% of its heyday, and more companions will come later. If we prepare in advance now, we can save time for future planning. Commander, it just so happens that the port area has been bombed now, meow, so we can build a shopping mall without deliberate planning!"

Akashi looked at Wuming with an innocent face, and the latter just glanced at him.

"What about the small shop that comes with Minato? Doesn't it just need to wait until Shiranui comes to unlock it?"

Various buildings in the port area have corresponding unlocking prerequisites, and the effects are also different from those in the game. Theoretically speaking, the convenience store should also be able to provide a consumption channel for gold coins, and even diamonds. Currently, gold coins are continuously flowing into the warehouse, while the channels for obtaining Rubik's Cubes are obviously narrower. In the absence of various tasks in the game, the growth of Rubik's Cubes is always unsatisfactory.

"But when will Shiranui-chan come? We can't keep everyone waiting, that's too passive, meow..."

Akashi said this, puffing out his chest with a righteous look on his face.

"Akashi is here to serve everyone, meow!"

Wuming's eyes twitched when he heard this. Thinking of Marco Polo who had left, he immediately asked.

"Let's not talk about your services or anything like that. Do you have any conflicts or connections with Marco Polo?"

When Akashi heard this, her expression froze. She was thinking about Marco Polo, and suddenly she seemed to react.

"Research Center, Research Center, meow, this guy must have gone somewhere while Akashi is away!"

Chapter 819 Is it over?

Scientific research center.

The circular architectural style of the exterior looks inconspicuous. As the island area increased after the port area was upgraded, this building hidden in the woods has been silently contributing to the technological iteration of the port area until now.

Marco Polo was breathing a little quickly and was jogging towards the door. In her hand, the memory stick of a cat-ear camera was pulled out and she held it tightly in her hand.

"This stupid cat is easier to deal with than I thought!"

As a scientific research center, its defense should theoretically be high enough to make any intruder feel despair. However, the defense measures built into the port system are still the most effective protection at present. Their effectiveness increases with the upgrade of the port. While the external defense is strong, the internal defense seems to be less focused. As a strange institution without fixed researchers, the scientific research center is not on guard against the ship girls, which gave Marco Polo an opportunity to take advantage of it.

The footsteps became more and more rapid. Marco Polo did not believe that his plan was really perfect, nor did he think that Wuming would really need three minutes to beat the cat, so she needed to go faster.

When she reached the door, the door automatically opened to both sides before she got close. Akashi also rushed over with rapid breathing, and collided with Marco Polo who was not in a hurry to dodge. They both fell backwards, feeling stars spinning in their heads.

“It hurts!”*2

Both of them fell to the ground with their heads covered. The companions who followed Akashi worked together to bring them out. Some rubbed their heads, some rubbed their faces, and finally they both woke up.

"It's you, meow!"

Akashi said angrily.

"It's you who spread the false news, meow, and made Akashi-chan use up all her favors, meow!"

Even Akashi wouldn't do something so obvious that it would make it difficult to open a store, and he would also use up all his favors.

"So what? You are the one with the problem. I was just fighting back. You deserve this situation!"

Marco Polo fell flat on his face, and sneered while covering his butt.

"You were the one who threatened me first!"

"Damn it, damn it, meow!"

Akashi suddenly jumped up, bared his teeth and claws, pounced on Marco Polo, and opened his mouth to bite her face.

"Asshole, don't come over here!"

The Pope had obviously never encountered such a situation before, and she stretched out her hand to hold Akashi's head tightly.

"Wait, don't just stand there and watch, come and save me!"

The stunned people then hurried forward to pull the two apart.

Wuming sighed silently as he looked at the green-haired cat and the ambitious man who were being pulled to two sides but continued to utter harsh words.

"So, shouldn't you explain? What's the matter with favors? And what's the so-called threat?"

Every time Wuming sees this kind of conflict caused by differences in values ​​or personalities, he always feels a headache. At the beginning, it was Enterprise and Frederick the Great. After they expressed their thoughts and argued with each other, their relationship gradually returned to normal. Now, the occasional sharp words can basically be understood as an alternative concern, but the situation this time is obviously different.

"Hey... well..."

When Akashi heard this, he began to stammer.

"Tsk, you're using other people's embarrassing things as a threat, and you're even taking photos and videos. Why don't you say anything now, you nasty guy?"

Marco Polo said complacently.

"I want to destroy the evidence and ensure my safety!"

"Hey hey hey, why do you want to destroy meow..."

Akashi trailed off as Wuming began to glare at her.

"You black-hearted cat, you've gone too far!"

“Hey hey hey….”

Akashi opened his eyes pitifully, trying to get away with it.

"Have we ever built a prison?"

Wuming asked with a dark face.

"If the master needs it, we can start building it now."

The head maid looked at Akashi with a bitter face, half squatting and looking at her with a smile. Then Akashi took out handcuffs from his arms and handcuffed himself, and stood next to the head maid very obediently.

"So, Marco, did you get all that information?"

Wuming rubbed his eyes and asked Marco Polo, whose mouth corners were raised wildly.

"No, no, I don't know anything..."

"You liar, you're such a cunning fellow. You found Akashi's camera. You must be thinking of stealing Akashi's information so that you can threaten other people!"

While Akashi was angry, she did not forget to make things difficult for Marco Polo. She turned her head and looked at Wuming, and her look became pitiful again.

"Commander, that guy is definitely a bad guy, meow. If Akashi has to go to jail, that guy has to go with him, meow!"

"Eh? Commander, don't believe her nonsense!"

Being bitten back unexpectedly, Marco Polo's smile became a little forced.
