305. The Mysterious Intruder

Chapter 305 The Mysterious Intruder ( words)

The moon is bright in the sky, and the silver moonlight is scattered on the sea, rippling with the waves and creating sparkling lights.

Several slender figures of girls broke through the waves and sailed towards the distance at a very fast speed. In the gentle sea breeze, their hair, the same color as moonlight, fluttered in the air. There was a faint laughter as clear as a silver bell, mixed in with the wind and drifting far away.

In the world before Xue Cheng traveled through time, if this scene was seen by others, it would definitely cause a heated discussion on the Internet. However, in this world, it is a very common occurrence.

Hmm... doesn't that seem normal?

At least in the past, deep-sea ship girls never would and could not freely roam and play in the near sea like this.

Shortly after they left this sea area, a dense bubble suddenly rose from the sea surface somewhere, and then a black shadow emerged silently from the sea.

"Those just now... were all from the deep sea."

The black shadow let out a long breath, and a soft, slightly low voice came out of her mouth. She raised her hand to lift up the bangs on her forehead that were dripping with sea water, revealing a cold and beautiful little face.

The girl has neat short black hair, and her lower abdomen is exposed above the sea. She is wearing a set of dark silver armor that is full of technological atmosphere. The part that is not covered by metal armor can be vaguely seen, which is a black tights.

"It seems that Nautilus's guess is true."

She squinted her eyes and looked in the direction where the group of deep-sea ship girls had just come from. With the bright moonlight, she could see that there was a huge shadow in that direction.

It is said that it was an uninhabited island many years ago, but now it is home to a tutelary fort.

The black-haired girl had also heard some rumors about that tutelary fort.

For example, a combined fleet that single-handedly defeated multiple deep-sea flagships, or one that possessed many rare and powerful ship girls. There were also rumors that the admiral of that naval base was a terrifying Cthulhu, and that he alone had destroyed all the suppressed deep-sea flagships.

The first two rumors were somewhat credible, but as for the latter one, the black-haired girl found it a bit ridiculous.

Isn't Cthulhu a fictional entity created by novelists? How is that possible?

Maybe it's because the admiral usually lives a secluded life and rarely appears in public, so someone made up this rumor?

However, although he was not a scary monster, in her eyes, the admiral was still quite dangerous.

"What exactly does this guy intend to do by colluding with the deep-sea ship girls?" The black-haired girl frowned.

She is not a ship girl from the nearby waters, but comes from an inconspicuous rural town in the distant inland.

Before today, the black-haired girl was the owner of her own coffee shop, leading a peaceful life just like any other ordinary person. However, the arrival of a friend who often worked as a mercenary broke this tranquility.

She was a submarine girl named Nautilus.

According to Nautilus, when she went out some time ago, she was diving in the nearby waters and happened to run into a ship girl and the deep sea together. Both sides were mysterious and seemed to be planning something.

After a brief investigation, Nautilus discovered that they seemed to have a close relationship and came from the same tutelary fort.

This immediately aroused her vigilance and she prepared to launch an investigation. However, she was in a foreign place and unfamiliar with the area, so she had no idea where to start.

Furthermore, she discovered that Ella, the head of the Navy Headquarters, seemed to have a close relationship with that naval base.

This discovery directly led to Nautilus not daring to act rashly. After careful consideration, he finally came to me, hoping that I, who was good at stealth assassination, would conduct the investigation.

The black-haired girl is also a wandering ship girl. When the Navy Headquarters is short of manpower, she will put on the ship uniform and go to the front line to fight, so she attaches great importance to this matter.

After carefully analyzing the information provided by Nautilus, she felt that she could not alert the enemy, so she decided to investigate immediately.

Waking up from her memories, the black-haired girl looked at the waterproof watch on her wrist, silently calculated the time, then dived back into the water and swam quickly towards the island.

Based on her observations over the past few days, she has roughly figured out the movement patterns of these deep-sea ship girls that only appear at night.

In the next twenty minutes, no deep-sea ship girl will pass by here. This vacuum period is the key to infiltration.

Using the protection of her ship suit, the black-haired girl swam in the water like a fish, quickly approaching the island. When she surfaced for the sixth time to breathe, she finally landed on a remote beach.

Using professional tactical evasive maneuvers, she quickly moved from the reef to the path beside the sea. She didn't find any hidden surveillance equipment along the way, nor did she bump into anyone else. The black-haired girl breathed a sigh of relief, squatted behind a big tree, and silently thought about her next move.

Continuing to infiltrate is definitely not an option. This tutelary fort is incredibly large, and it's easy to get lost if you're not familiar with the routes, wasting time and energy. So, the top priority now is...

"Catch a tongue?" The black-haired girl laughed softly and silently called out some ship equipment in her heart.

Two short daggers tied to her thighs appeared out of thin air, and a long sword full of technological atmosphere appeared on her back. She stood up, used the big trees and bushes as cover, and sneaked towards an area with more buildings.

Soon, the black-haired girl hiding behind a trash can discovered her target.

She was a deep-sea ship girl with silver-white hair and bloodless skin. She had a headband tied on her forehead and a round yellow crystal between her eyebrows. She was dressed boldly, exposing large areas of her skin to the air. Although she had a petite figure, she was extremely hot, and her plump bust was almost about to burst through her clothes.

She strolled along the path by the sea, her hands behind her back, looking relaxed and leisurely. From time to time, she stood on tiptoe and turned around in place. Her skirt fluttered, revealing her safety pants. It seemed that she was just taking an ordinary stroll.

Destroyer T-class Type IV.

The black-haired girl quickly recognized her identity. As a newcomer in the deep-sea destroyer, the extremely high evasion ability of the T-class IV destroyer had once caused her a lot of trouble, and she was deeply impressed.

If they met on the sea, the black-haired girl would definitely have a headache, but this time they were on land and she was on a battleship, so she could completely crush the opponent in close combat and had no need to worry at all.

However, even though she had an absolute advantage in strength, apart from quietly taking out the two daggers tied to her thighs, she still did not act rashly. Instead, she waited patiently for the Expelled T-Class IV to come to the trash can before she suddenly attacked.

"Swish!" A black shadow flashed by, and the black-haired girl moved as fast as a rabbit. Before the Deep Sea Destroyer T-Class IV could react, two daggers with blood-red blades were already crossed at her neck.

The Expulsion T-Class IV subconsciously wanted to scream out in surprise, but the black-haired girl frowned and lowered her voice to shout coldly: "Don't make a sound if you don't want to die!"

The deep-sea girl immediately covered her lips with her hands, her golden eyes filled with tears as she looked at her pitifully.

The black-haired girl wasn't fooled by her appearance. She glanced aside warily, then brought her T-Class IV Expulsion to a large tree and whispered, "Where is the admiral of this tutelary fort?"

"That, that sir?" The Expellee T-Class IV's lips trembled slightly, his expression terrified, as if he was very frightened, which made the black-haired girl feel a little uncomfortable.

What was going on? This other person was clearly a cruel and violent deep-sea ship girl, but why did she feel like a weak and helpless little girl to me?

Also, I've been curious before, the expressions and mood swings of the deep-sea ship girls here seem a bit too rich, right? Aren't they supposed to have a fake smile and be indifferent to any situation?

"Tsk." The black-haired girl smacked her lips in dissatisfaction and moved the blade of the dagger closer. The cold metal touched her tender skin, causing goose bumps.

She looked at the pale-faced T-Class IV Expulsion and said in a low voice, "I'll ask you again, where is that guy now?"

"Ugh... I can't tell you!" The T-Class IV Destroyer replied softly with tears in his eyes.

"That gentleman is a good man. Not only did he take us in, he also treated us the same as the ship girls. He is our benefactor, so I will never tell you!"

"You really won't tell me?" There was murderous intent in the black-haired girl's eyes. The blade of the dagger moved forward again, close to the girl's skin, just a little bit away from cutting her skin.

At this distance, with the extraordinary strength of the black-haired girl after being blessed by the ship suit, even if this deep-sea ship girl also activated the ship suit protection, the relatively weak armor of the destroyer still could not provide much protection.

"I absolutely won't tell!" A large tear rolled down the corner of the T-Class Type IV Destroyer's eye, but her expression remained resolute. A gleam of determination flashed across her eyes. The deep-sea girl suddenly opened her mouth and shouted, "Enemy attack..."

"Bang!" After a muffled sound, the black-haired girl supported the unconscious T-Class IV Expellee who was drooping her head. She pointed the dagger in her hand at her throat and raised it several times. Finally, she sighed softly and hid her behind a small bush.

"I hope my stupidity won't kill me." The black-haired girl sighed softly, turned around and walked away, continuing to explore deeper.

After sneaking for a while, the black-haired girl encountered her target again, but judging from the characteristics, the other party was not Deep Sea, but a ship girl.

The girl has long golden hair and wears a long British aristocratic dress. Her figure is very voluptuous but not fat.

She strolled in the night, looking relaxed and at ease, with a hint of elegance and nobility.

What a charming girl! Even the black-haired girl couldn't help but marvel at it, but beyond that, she wouldn't change her original intention.

Waiting patiently behind a big tree, the black-haired girl quietly put the two daggers back, pulled out the long sword from behind her back, and waited for the opportunity.

Soon, when the blonde girl passed by the tree, the black-haired girl attacked as usual, swinging the knife with both hands.

"Ding!" The long sword that was originally intended to stop at the blonde girl's neck was blocked.

She widened her eyes in surprise as a heavy knight's broadsword blocked her sword. The opponent held the sword with one hand, his eyes cold. No matter how hard she tried, the sword did not move at all.

The next second, the wind suddenly blew and a lance swept towards her.

……

When Xue Cheng heard that St. George had been attacked, he rushed over while he was still in the office checking bills with Wisconsin and making plans.

Upon arriving at the scene, Xue Cheng was surprised to find that the forest path had been completely destroyed. The stone slabs on the ground were broken in many places, some of the thinner trees were cut in half, and the branches and leaves of the older trees were broken, making it a miserable sight.

A girl wearing dark silver armor, holding two broken daggers and with only half of a katana left beside her, fell unconscious in a bush.

"What's going on?" Xue Cheng didn't bother to check on the unknown girl. Seeing Wisconsin taking the initiative to look after her, he hurried to St. George's side, took her hands, and carefully checked the situation in the moonlight.

"St. George, are you okay?"

"It's okay, Admiral, I'm fine." St. George smiled lightly and let Xue Cheng play with him.

The admiral seemed to be really frightened. He pulled her and kept checking her. He even reached out his hand without hesitation and felt around her arms and back for a while. Only after he was sure that there were no wounds did he breathe a sigh of relief.

This experience reminded St. George of a long time ago when the admiral had arranged for him to be the secretary ship and had touched him in the same way.

However, because he was his own admiral, St. George did not hate him. Even now, he still missed that time.

It can be considered as reliving old memories.

After a careful inspection, Xue Cheng found no hidden scars on St. George's body. He breathed a sigh of relief, hugged the girl in his arms, and gently patted her back to comfort her.

Should I say he was too concerned? He was standing there perfectly fine, while the attacker was unconscious, and the admiral was actually comforting himself?

St. George felt a little amused, but the feeling of being pampered and cared for by the one he loved was not a bad one.

After hugging Xue Cheng back, St. George put his hands on his shoulders, pushed him away a little, and said:

"Admiral, don't worry, but the man who attacked me doesn't look well. Let's take a look."

Xue Cheng nodded, and without letting go of St. George, he took her hand and walked to the side of the attacker.

"Well, what a cold beauty." It was not Xue Cheng who said this, but Wisconsin.

She squatted beside the attacker, pointed her finger at his chin, and her charming eyes moved slowly from his face to his slender neck, and then down to his slender neck, with proud justice, and she made a clicking sound with her mouth.

"Looks like a ship girl?" Xue Cheng frowned. He did not feel the strange temperament of the deep sea as if it was rejected by the whole world from the attacker.

But...why did the shipgirl attack St. George? Did this guy come to his garrison on someone's orders?

If that was the case, her target would definitely not be St. George. After all, a master who could sneak here without being discovered by Yubari's surveillance equipment could definitely not have the purpose of assassinating a ship girl.
