"In fact, it's not impossible to have three ship girls accompany us..." Xu Huan continued, "If you want to call someone or notify something, you can do it now... I'll call Hu Teng over too."

"Sister Hu Teng? Okay..." Hearing this powerful name, Z23 suddenly felt a lot more at ease.

Sister Hu Teng's personality is relatively aloof in Tiexue, and she doesn't have many interactions with Z23. If the girl were to ask her to come alone, she might not be able to call someone over.

But no matter what, with this iron-blooded sea legend traveling together, the risks of going to sea will be greatly reduced.

As for her side...

Sister Frederick, who had good relations with people in the port area, should come over as soon as she was told, but after considering it again and again, the girl decided to notify her immediate superior Tirpitz first.

After the relevant message was sent, it was replied quickly.

[Going out to sea? I'll wait for you guys at the pier...]

"well....?!"

The girl was a little surprised when she saw Tirpitz's reply.

"what happened?"

Xu Huan looked over curiously following the sound.

"Commander, I am addressing Sister Tirpitz..."

"Tirpitz...?"

After hearing the name, Xu Huan also understood why the girl made that unexpected sound.

Tirpitz, known as the 'Lonely Queen of the North', is in some ways a very traditional homebody.

On the first day he came to Tiexue, Xu Huan learned the detailed reasons from Beifa.

It's not just because the prototype ships basically never left the port in history, but Tirpitz, as a ship girl, also retains this habit.

If it is not necessary, we will basically not leave the port.

The ship girl who has taken the attribute of being a stay-at-home to the extreme is actually planning to go out to sea with Xu Huan today.

Although it was due to the mission requirements of the port area, it was indeed easy to be surprised.

"Hu Teng also said she will be here soon, so let's drive straight to the pier..."

Xu Huan turned off the communication device and said.

-------------------------------------

Tirpitz and Hutten were much faster than they had expected.

When the young man and Z23's vehicle arrived at the dock, they could see two familiar figures standing on the dock from a long distance away, chatting about something.

The vehicle slowly drove in and arrived at the designated parking spot, and the sound it made also attracted the attention of the two women.

"These should be the commander and Z23, right?"

Tirpitz watched the familiar car stop and stopped chatting with Hutten, and said.

"It's him... I smell something related to him..."

Hutten nodded.

"Aura...what aura? Is there an aura on the commander?"

Tirpitz listened to Hutten's words and tried to sniff lightly. Apart from the faint fishy smell brought by the sea breeze, he did not smell anything like the so-called "commander's breath".

"You haven't been exposed to it, so you don't understand..." Hu Teng said very seriously.

“…”

Tirpitz thought carefully about the meaning of Hutten's words, and felt more and more that the other party had some inexplicable intention of showing off.

But when she looked at Hu Teng's cold and arrogant face, she felt that she seemed to be overthinking.

She knows Hu Teng's character quite well, so he probably doesn't mean that...

At this time, a handsome young man got out of the passenger seat of a car in the distance, and waved and greeted the two women with a relaxed expression.

Tirpitz smiled and was about to extend his hand to return the greeting when he saw Hutten walking towards him quickly.

There's no need to rush...

Tirpitz was thinking, and the next second, she saw Hu Teng throwing herself into Xu Huan's arms in front of her.

"....?"

Chapter 235 The Relationship between the Northern Alliance and Iron Blood

Not only was Tirpitz stunned, even Z23, who had just parked the car and was about to get out, also went into a state of mental paralysis when he saw this scene.

At this moment, there was only one common question in their minds.

Hu Teng...has he become so close to the commander?

Because Hu Teng came back from the royal family, they had made relevant speculations, but they did not expect it to have reached this stage.

You have to know that Hu Teng's personality is considered to be cold and arrogant in the port area. Even though most people know that she is cold on the outside but warm on the inside, no one has ever thought that Hu Teng would actually take the initiative to throw herself into someone's arms.

Especially since the commander had just arrived at the port a few days ago, he dealt a critical blow to the two of them.

They watched as Hu Teng paid no attention to their gazes and threw himself directly into the young man's arms.

Xu Huan also cooperated very well and picked up the tall and gentle body of the ship girl.

Afterwards, Hu Teng, without saying a word, put his arms around Xu Huan's neck and kissed the young man directly on his lips.

Perhaps considering that there were other people watching, Hu Teng did not choose to have too much in-depth communication. He just pecked lightly and then let go of his hands.

"Someone is watching...You kissed me right in front of them, aren't you worried that they will say something bad about you?"

“Don’t worry…”

Hu Teng shook her head, and a gentle smile appeared on her beautiful face: "I don't worry about these things... I don't worry about what other people think, I just know that I miss you..."

After expressing her inner longing for him, the ship girl gently pinched Xu Huan's face:

"You've been in Iron Blood for so long, but you didn't even take the initiative to come look for me?"

"Don't slander me..." Xu Huan said with a smile, "I've only been at Tiexue for two days... I have a lot of things to do, and I basically don't have any free time..."

"And if I have a chance this time, I'll ask you to go out to sea with me, right? Although it's not an easy thing to do..."

At this moment, Xu Huan perfectly embodied the meaning of a scumbag.

But how can the commander's affairs be considered scum?

"Then, remember to call me next time..."

"it is good...."

Just as Xu Huan agreed, he felt something like a card being stuffed directly into his hand.

Having had the experience of Hindenburg giving him a room card before, Xu Huan naturally understood what Hu Teng was stuffing into his hands at this time, and put it into the storage device as well.

Now I have one more place in Tiexue's residence...

But do all the Iron-Blooded Ship Girls like to give room cards?

And according to this trend, will the key card to Frederick's house be given to me next?

Shaking his head gently to clear the useless yellow waste from his mind, Xu Huan looked past the ship girl and looked at Tirpitz who was standing awkwardly in the distance.

Z23 behind him also pretended not to see anything and checked the car as if nothing had happened. It was not until Xu Huan finished his intimate actions with Hu Teng that he followed carefully.

At times like this, you have to be thick-skinned.

Seeing that the two of them seemed not to have noticed what happened between him and Hu Teng, Xu Huan simply pretended that nothing had happened. He coughed twice and walked in front of Tirpitz:

"I've just arrived... and I'm bothering you again, Tirpitz."

"No trouble... It's my duty, no need to say more, Commander." After a short period of adjustment, Tirpitz also forced himself to calm down. There was no clue on his calm face.

After saying this, Tirpitz turned sideways and gently extended his hand.

On the sea in the distance, Hutten's huge prototype ship had already been summoned and was anchored at the dock.

"Everything is ready, we can go to sea at any time..."

-------------------------------------

The boundless sea surface and the azure sky are one color, gradually connecting and disappearing at the end of the field of vision.

Xu Huan stood in front of the nautical chart, listening to Tirpitz's continuous explanation.

"The sea area we are in now is strictly speaking near the coast, and it is also one of the safest sea areas... Generally speaking, it is difficult to encounter sirens..."

Under normal circumstances, Tirpitz's words would be considered very confident, and he would not add modifiers such as "usually" or "should".

But not long ago, they had just destroyed a team of small mass-produced Sirens in this sea area.

Although they were all dealt with by the idle Hu Teng in just one encounter, it also indirectly confirmed Xu Huan's speculation about the activeness of the Sirens.

The Sirens, which are rarely seen in the sea on weekdays, appeared in front of everyone very "rarely" today. The biggest reason is only one, and that is the young man himself.

As for this voyage, Xu Huan initially intended to conduct a field investigation to see if his existence was as shown in the data, which made all the Sirens move closer to the direction of Iron Blood.

After all, data is data, but field investigations and experiments are also necessary.

But he didn't expect that not long after he went out to sea, he met the Siren Team who were willing to help him fill in the missing experiments, and perfectly achieved the purpose of this voyage.

But thinking that since he was already here, it would be a loss if he didn't collect more, Xu Huan continued sailing on the sea.

"I have a question..." After listening to Tirpitz's introduction and looking at the sea chart, Xu Huan also had some doubts in his heart.

"Commander, please speak."

"Why does the nautical chart show that our current location is... the border of the sea area under the jurisdiction of Iron Blood?"

Xu Huan looked at the sea where he was sailing above and asked.

Just as Tirpitz said, this sea area is considered to be near the coast. Whether for the purpose of expanding the sphere of influence or for the convenience of jurisdiction, given their iron-blooded nature, they should expand the jurisdiction of their own camp further into the distance.

Is it because there are not enough people?

But the sea area under the jurisdiction of the royal family is so vast...

"The reason is very simple..." Tirpitz smiled and explained, "Because if we go beyond here, we will reach the sea area under the jurisdiction of the Northern Alliance..."

Strictly speaking, the geographical distance between Beilian and Tiexue Port is not far.

"This sea area is considered the border between the Iron Bloods and the Northern Alliance. Both camps will basically send ship girls to patrol here. This is also one of the reasons why there are few sirens in this sea area and it is relatively safe."

"The sea area of ​​the Northern Alliance..."

Xu Huan frowned: "Are you on good terms with them?"

"Uh... not so good..."

"Then why is the border drawn to your coastal waters? I think this place should be some distance away from the Northern Alliance..."

"In this case..."

Tirpitz didn't know how to answer for a moment.

You can't just say that you had a conflict with the other party and couldn't beat them...

Chapter 236: Friction between Camps

Compared to Tirpitz who didn't know how to answer, Z23 on the side was very direct.

She, who had been listening on the side for a while, now took the initiative to step forward and very "thoughtfully" helped Tirpitz take over the task of replying to Xu Huan.

"Because of the relevant agreement signed with the Northern Alliance, the border was drawn here, Commander." The girl answered seriously.

"....Sign an agreement? Doesn't that seem unfair?"

"Indeed..." Z23 sighed slightly and continued, "Because there were some difficult to reconcile conflicts between the port area and the Northern Alliance, we made some concessions after some conflicts..."

"Well...I made a concession..."

Xu Huan repeated Z23's words, and then suddenly asked, "Is it because you can't beat him?"

He had come across too many similar cases of selective reporting or reporting good news but not bad news when he was at the Human Resources Network.

During chaotic times, wars occur every day, and the media sometimes needs some propaganda methods that can both save face and inform the public of the facts.
