"Um … Commander Qian Ye, have you encountered this situation before?"
"No, never heard of it, never seen it."
Qian Ye looked at the series of question marks on the monitor in front of him and began to worry.
Previously, Vatler used all 30 to bet six hours of construction time to build a Lexington. Qian Ye could still blame it on Vatler's pale face.
But now, this "construction time???" seemed abnormal no matter how he looked at it …
"???" How long was it? If it was ten days or half a month, Qian Ye could bear with it.
But if he couldn't see the end of the construction time, what would he do?
There had never been a situation where the construction was interrupted.
Also, the power source of the ship girl's summoning machine was not conventional energy. The energy core was also a product that humans could not understand. It was impossible to use it anywhere else.
The ship girls also made it clear that once the energy core was activated, it would never stop unless it was destroyed.
How was Qian Ye supposed to deal with this perpetual motion machine?
Qian Ye looked at the situation in front of him in a dilemma.
Eight-cloud Ink also felt a little embarrassed.
Qian Ye was kind enough to use his mansion to summon the ship girl, but he created this problem himself.
"Mo'er …"
Suddenly, Purple spoke.
"Mhmm?"
"Do you feel … anything wrong with your body?"
"…?"
Yakumo looked at Yukari in confusion, causing all the girls nearby to suddenly become nervous.
"Nothing — Gu!"
Before she finished speaking, she felt a strong sense of dizziness.
Eight-cloud Ink lost her balance and fell backward.
"Ah —!!"
Amidst the exclamations of the girls, Origami quickly stepped forward and hugged Yakumo. She then knelt on the ground and carefully placed Yakumo's head, who was still in a daze, on her smooth thighs.
Origami hesitated for a while. She remembered that there were so many people here. In the end, she gave up the idea of lifting her skirt to cover Eight-cloud Ink's head.
Fortunately, Eight-cloud Ink quickly woke up.
"Mhmm …"
Rubbing his aching forehead, Eight-cloud Ink stood up with a serious expression.
When the dizziness hit him, he even had a feeling that his soul was being sucked away by something.
Fortunately, the Fantasy Sapling in his spirit sea released a powerful force in time to protect his mind, preventing him from having a mental breakdown.
That instant of confrontation also made Eight-cloud Ink understand that the reason for the current situation was probably because of the Fantasy Tree in his mind.
This was because with the dizziness just now, the inexplicable connection between the Fantasy Sapling and the machine in front of him became clear.
"Things are getting serious …"
Eight-cloud Ink muttered.
At this moment, the question mark on the screen finally changed.
Construction time: 17 days, 22 hours …
○
After staying at the South Star Island's Guardian Mansion for more than half a month, the Moral Integrity Cruiser set sail again.
He didn't choose to return along the route he came from.
The kappas relied on the nautical chart provided by Chiba to determine the location of the Fantasy Village. After getting everyone's agreement, they developed a circular route and planned to visit several nearby Guardian Mansions before returning to the Fantasy Village.
For more than half a month, the monsters had a lot of fun on South Star Island.
Every day, they would travel together with the shipgirls they knew. Sometimes, they would go out together to deal with the deep-sea ships.
These novel experiences kept the monsters in a constant state of excitement.
However, this didn't include Yakumo's family and the group of people who had a good relationship with Eight-cloud Ink.
This was because as the construction time passed, Eight-cloud Ink became weaker and weaker.
In the last few days, it even became a little difficult for him to mobilize the monster power in his body.
However, this situation also made Eight-cloud Ink's expectations in his heart become higher and higher.
According to Chiba, the more powerful the shipgirl was, the greater the burden it would cause to the Admiral during construction.
With Eight-cloud Ink's physical fitness that far exceeded that of ordinary humans, it was hard to imagine what he would create.
Would it really be a shipgirl?
Would it be a space battleship?
Finally, the construction time was finally over.
Under the watchful eyes of the monsters, Chiba, and the shipgirls, the semicircular door where the new shipgirl was born emitted an unprecedented dazzling light.
Then, a very petite loli appeared there.
White hair that reached her hips, slender limbs, and blood-red eyes.
Wearing a strange military uniform full of the smell of iron and blood, the little loli stood in front of Eight-cloud Ink, gave a very strange military salute, and then said a sentence:
"Galactic Essence, DS-1 Orbital Battlestation, greetings, Your Majesty!"
Your Majesty?
What kind of strange title is this? Shouldn't it be the Admiral?
— Wait, what did she just say?
Galactic Essence, DS-1 Orbital Battlestation …
Galaxy Empire, DS-1 orbital battle space station?
Eight-cloud Ink's forehead began to sweat.
⑧
Enjoying the sea breeze, Eight-cloud Ink collected his thoughts and turned to look at the petite and cute white-haired loli beside him.
"Your Majesty?"
Noticing Eight-cloud Ink's gaze, the little loli turned her head with an expressionless face.
"Um … Little Star, are you sure you're okay?"
"No problem, Your Majesty! Although I can't exert my full strength because Your Majesty can't provide enough energy, it's enough to deal with those broken ships! "
The little loli said expressionlessly in a monotonous tone.
However, Eight-cloud Ink clearly saw a trace of excitement in Little Star's eyes.
This war maniac …
"Your Majesty, let me flatten this sea area for you and eliminate all the rebellious people!"
"Rejected!"
Although the little loli looked very dangerous — of course, she was actually more dangerous — Eight-cloud Ink wasn't worried.
Because Eight-cloud Ink couldn't provide enough energy, Little Star, the little loli, couldn't exert her original power that could destroy planets.
It should be said that she couldn't even start her own power source and main weapon energy source — the super material reactor.
Even the ion engine for propulsion in conventional space couldn't be started.
Not to mention the navigation matrix composed of faster than light engines, antimatter space stations, artificial gravitational field generators, and other things …
"So, Little Star, since you are an orbital combat space station, what weapon configuration do you have?"
In the Guardian Mansion, Eight-cloud Ink asked in a room with only Yakumo's family and the elves.
"Your Majesty, I have a super laser cannon that can destroy medium-sized planets at full power."
Everyone was speechless …
"In addition, there are 1,000 turbo laser cannons, 2,500 laser cannons …"
Everyone was speechless …
"2,500 particle cannons and 468 tractor beam generators."
Everyone was speechless …
"Chain space collapse detonator …"
"Okay, you don't have to explain!"
Eight-cloud Ink interrupted Little Star's words. At the same time, he was worried about what he had created.
"These things can't be used without my permission!"
"Yes, Your Majesty! However, even if Your Majesty allows it, these weapons can't be used. "
"Huh? Why? "
"Insufficient energy …"
According to the little loli, if Eight-cloud Ink could provide enough demonic power, she could start the core power, which was the super material reactor. In this case, those super-standard weapons could be used.
Then, Eight-cloud Ink tried to transmit the demonic power in his body to Little Star.
Then, the little loli's words made Eight-cloud Ink speechless.
"Your Majesty, according to this output power, it needs to be continuously output for 287 years, 256 days, and 21 hours to reach the minimum start-up standard!"
So, Eight-cloud Ink gave up.
But then, the little loli seemed to feel that it was not good to discourage her Majesty like this, so she added,
"However, the energy provided by Your Majesty during the initial construction can be used for some conventional weapons used for internal combat … Well, only a small part can be used."
"Oh? What are they? "
"Conventional laser cannons, some atomic resonance bombs, floating cannons, and so on."
In this way, Eight-cloud Ink, who was a little comforted in his heart, left South Star Island with the little loli, who had countless powerful weapons but was limited by the lack of energy, and could only "play on a small scale".
PS: Little Star is actually the Death Star from Star Wars, yo, poi.
