Can't find it ….
Standing on the branch, Atalanta looked around. As an excellent hunter, she certainly knew how to find her prey. But now it seemed that this "prey" was more difficult to deal with than she thought.
But it didn't matter. As a hunter, Atalanta had enough patience. As long as she could find the target, then she would definitely be able to … .find it!
At this moment, Atalanta suddenly saw a figure slowly coming from the corner of the corridor on the other side of the Guardian's Mansion. It was a girl with waist-length black hair and a dark blue sailor suit. She lowered her head, and her long bangs covered her eyes. She looked a little like a vampire who had been exposed to the sun for too long. The ship girl was holding a book in her arms as she staggered forward. On her chest was a nameplate, which clearly showed her serial number — 1408.
That's her!
Atalanta's eyes lit up when she saw the ship girl. She hurriedly jumped up and rushed towards the ship girl.
"The person in front, please wait a minute! I have something to talk to you …! "
While shouting, Atalanta rushed out of the woods. According to her estimation, she would be able to land firmly in front of the ship girl in the next moment, blocking her way.
But at this moment, a sudden breeze blew by, which made Atalanta squint her eyes unconsciously. But when she opened her eyes again and looked at the ground, Atalanta was surprised to find that the ship girl who should have been in front of her had disappeared without a trace.
How is this possible?
Atalanta stared at the empty corridor in front of her. She was very confident in her perception. Even if the ship girl wanted to avoid her, she should be able to detect the target's movements. But just now, she had just accidentally diverted her attention, and it was not even 1%, and the ship girl had disappeared just like that? It was as if she had never appeared before?
This ship girl couldn't be an assassin who could hide her aura, could she?
"Clack … clack …"
At this moment, Atalanta's ears suddenly twitched. She quickly caught the sound of footsteps coming from the corridor on the second floor on the other side. That's right, it was the footsteps of the ship girl! Atalanta was sure!
Got you!
At this moment, Atalante's whole body was tense. She stepped on the pillar next to her, then turned 180 degrees in the air and jumped directly to the window on the second floor. Sure enough, Atalante soon saw the ship girl holding a book and walking to the end of the corridor.
"Hey, wait a minute, I have something urgent to do!"
Although Atalanta shouted in time, the shipgirl turned around and walked to the other side of the corridor as if she didn't hear her at all. Seeing this scene, Atalante also gritted her teeth, and her whole person flew in like an arrow, rushing to the corner at the end of the corridor in two or three steps.
"I want you to wait … Where is he?"
Atalante looked at the empty corridor in front of her and the vending machine at the end. She didn't know what to say for a while. On the sink next to the vending machine, she also saw a cup of steaming hot milk tea....
There wasn't even a window or a door nearby. Where did that ship girl go?
While Atalante was worried about this problem, Fangzheng and others were also worried about another problem.
"Where did we go?"
Looking at the hall made entirely of metal and the corridors around it, Fangzheng didn't know what to say at all. He originally thought this was an ordinary residence. But when Fangzheng went in, he found that this damn place was frighteningly big. And there was everything inside …. For example ….
"Well, I'm sure we've gone the wrong way."
Looking at the three big words "Morgue" under the pale light in front of him, Fangzheng apologized and took his leave.
As for Xia Shi and Cui, they were trembling in fear as they hid behind Fangzheng.
"That's why Iona and I didn't want to come to her …."
Musashi sighed helplessly.
"Her hull is too big, and unlike other warships, her appearance is irregular. It's impossible to find her unless you look for her yourself …."
"Wait, you're saying this is her hull?"
Hearing this, Fangzheng suddenly realised …. This mental model is actually living in my body?
Huh? Come to think of it, it doesn't seem strange.
But Iona and Musashi's reaction was not strange either. Logically speaking, the hull of a ship girl should be very big, such as the Unicorn's Carrier. But the interior of a Sea Mist Battleship was different from that of an ordinary warship. Ship girls would usually fill their warships with all kinds of weapons and ammunition.
In fact, in the battleships Fangzheng had seen, many of the spaces that should have been warehouses, canteens, or accommodations for the crew had been filled with all sorts of powerful reactive weapons and output cores. This was also the reason why the Sea Fog battleship had such an unscientific combat strength.
After all, for most ship girls, the only personal space they needed was probably the command tower and the captain's room. The other places could be filled with weapons without a problem.
So it was easy to find these ship girls. They could just go to the command tower or the captain's room.
But this … .or should it be said that this was a logistics ship? Not only did it have research rooms, wards, treatment facilities, it even had a morgue …. Although Fangzheng admitted that it was always better to be prepared, looking at the morgue in front of him still made him feel a little uncomfortable.
"Doesn't she have any places she often goes to?"
"…."
"Okay, I know you're not familiar with her."
Seeing Musashi and Iona shake their heads in unison, Fangzheng sighed helplessly. The only thing these two knew about the ship girl was her serial number. How could they know her hobbies?
"— —! — —!! "
Just as Fangzheng was about to continue looking for her, the lights above his head suddenly began to flicker, as if there was a problem with the surrounding light sources.
Cui turned her head and was surprised to see that as the lights flickered, a figure suddenly appeared at the end of the corridor far away from them!
"F- Fangzheng! There's someone there! "
While screaming, Cuttlefish grabbed Fangzheng's arm tightly. Hearing Cuttlefish's cry, Fangzheng also turned his head and looked in the direction Cuttlefish was pointing …. But there was no one there.
"There's no one there?"
"But, but I really saw someone standing there just now …."
Cuttlefish stared at the end of the corridor in fear, not knowing what to say for a while. On the contrary, Musashi and Iona breathed a sigh of relief. Musashi opened his mouth and shouted.
“1408！ Come out! The Commander is looking for you! "
"…. What's the matter?"
Suddenly, just as Musashi's voice faded, a voice suddenly came from behind them. Fangzheng jumped back in fright, while Xia Shi and Cuttlefish hugged Fangzheng's body like two frightened kittens and refused to let go.
Only then did they notice that a ship girl with waist-length black hair wearing a dark blue sailor suit had appeared behind them. She had her head lowered and looked gloomy, like a female ghost in a horror movie …. But the nameplate on her chest did read 1408 ….
"Phew …. 1408, you're finally here."
At this time, Musashi and Iona also sighed. Then, Musashi said.
Musashi said, "The Commander has a mission for you. Can you do it?"
"…. What's the matter?"
1408 tilted her head. Her voice was as gloomy as she was …. Well, as if she had come out of a morgue.
"Simply put …."
As he spoke, Fangzheng explained the solution they came up with during the meeting to 1408.
"Musashi said you have a way. Can you do it? Divide and seal off this specific area …. "
"…. No problem."
But to Fangzheng's surprise, the other party only considered for a moment, then nodded. It seemed that there was really no problem for her.
Regardless of whether it was true or not, Fangzheng could only give it a shot. He decided to give it a try first.
But then again ….
"I don't know your name yet. 1408 is your serial number, right? Don't you have a ship name?"
"Ah …. That's right …."
Upon hearing Fangzheng's question, the girl in front of him seemed to have suddenly understood. She slowly stretched out her right hand and bowed weakly to Fangzheng.
