Chapter 110: Commission Summary

Welcome back, commander!

When Qin Ge and the others returned to the room, Nengdai's four had just gathered in the grand hall; thus, upon seeing Qin Ge, they all spoke together.

Thank you everyone, but what are you doing here? Why haven't you gone to eat?" Qin Ge asked the others doubtfully.

We were just about to go eat together, but then the commander came back. So, commander, have you eaten? If not, let's go eat with us." Weineito said cheerfully.

We've already eaten, and after learning from Yixian that you still hadn't eaten, we brought back food for you." Qin Ge said, and Belfast took out her prepared meal box, placed it on the dining table, and arranged each dish.

Oh, thank you, Belfast, for bringing our meal back; I'm really grateful." Weineito hurriedly thanked.

It's fine, this is what a maid should do." After Belfast tidied up the things on the table, she said to Weineito.

Hurry up and eat; after eating, let's tally today's gains." Qin Ge told everyone.

Yes.

Thus, while Nengdai's group went to eat, Qin Ge's three returned to the second floor to wash up, then went back to the grand hall to regroup with Nengdai and the others.

Today's assigned mission was to support Muboluodao; we fought on the island for six hours total, destroying three Sirens mass-produced light cruisers and five Sirens mass-produced destroyers. Mission completion: great success, S-rank." Qin Ge told everyone.

Furthermore, because we sank the Sirens mass-produced ships, we also found a lot of supplies near the wrecks, totaling 700 units." Belfast said.

Qin Ge nodded, "If we add the supplies we'll get after completing tomorrow's delivery mission, today's trip can net about 1000 units of supplies."

Really little." Weineito frowned.

Qin Ge couldn't help but smile; perhaps because yesterday they learned they still had over a million supplies, they looked down on this small amount. So he said to Weineito, "It's not little; you should know how much supplies a first-year student can save each month?"

Weineito shook his head, indicating he didn't know.

Currently, first-year students basically have no source of supplies; they can only exchange the oil given by the academy for supplies, at a rate of one unit of oil for five units of supplies.

According to the average oil allocation per first-year student's shipgirls based on rarity, each person has only 200 units of oil available per week. Even if half of that is used each week to exchange for supplies, the most they could get in a month is 2000 units of supplies.

So, do you think 1000 units of supplies is still little?" Qin Ge laughed at Weineito.

So our one-day harvest equals half a month's accumulation for them?" Weineito exclaimed in surprise.

Qin Ge nodded, "So first-year students are for learning knowledge; when they become second-year, that's when they fully focus on cultivating their shipgirls."

Furthermore, my existence is special because I have privileges granted by the Prince of Wales, and I can also gain extra supplies by relying on the strategy and tactics course I teach.

So never use my current supplies to measure mission gains; all wealth is accumulated bit by bit.

Actually, commander, haven't you told the whole story?" Ou Gen Qin Wang raised an eyebrow, saying, "I looked over some descriptions of commission missions today; these support missions should require at least two shipgirls, and their proficiency levels should each be above 25 before they can be undertaken, right?"

Such missions should be doable by second-year students who have reached graduate-level standing, or by members of the Big Build team outside.

And when genuine second-year students first start, they also perform escort missions that don't earn much per day.

Yes." Qin Ge nodded, "So today already counts as a big gain, and while we are strengthening our own strength, we must also fully realize that any supplies must be used on the cutting edge. We can't just squander them wildly just because we have a lot now."

Understood." Everyone nodded.

Let's discuss our plans for the future." Qin Ge told everyone, "I've decided that the next time we receive such a mission, I will bring all of you along."

When Qin Ge finished saying that, Weineito and Ou Gen Qin Wang's eyes lit up, but Ling Bo showed no particular reaction, remaining calm and unperturbed.

Because after today's battle, the centaurs found that simply participating in combat gives a big boost in brightness. So I think it's a waste to just keep practicing endlessly in the academy; when conditions allow, you should also go out on sorties with me.

However, if you are directly assigned escort missions and the like, it's better to stay in the academy to train, because such missions rarely encounter Sirens interception. The reason these missions exist is entirely as a precaution." Qin Ge told everyone.

Yes, commander!

After hearing everyone's response, Qin Ge nodded, "Then you may now begin free activities; if you want to rest, you can rest a bit; if you want to go out and play, you can go out and play. If you need anything, you can find me anytime; I'm returning to my room."

Yes.

After dismissing everyone, Qin Ge went upstairs to make a brief summary of today's commission mission.

Meanwhile, Belfast came over to pour Qin Ge a cup of red tea, but Qin Ge told her to go rest; after all, having experienced a day of battle, even a perfect and graceful head maid needs to pay attention to rest.

After everything was done, Qin Ge changed into his training uniform, preparing to go out for daily training. However, after going downstairs, he unexpectedly saw Ling Bo sitting quietly in the living room, which caught his attention.

Ling Bo, why are you sitting in the living room? Why not go out to play or return to your room to rest?

Qin Ge said to Ling Bo, who was sitting on the sofa, and then Ling Bo replied to Qin Ge, "The commander told Ling Bo to go out and play… Ling Bo doesn't understand what that means, and besides, she doesn't want to rest right now."

Qin Ge furrowed his brows, "So you've been sitting here since I said the meeting was dismissed, all the way until now?"

Yes…" Ling Bo nodded.

Qin Ge helplessly sighed, walked over to sit beside Ling Bo, and asked, "Ling Bo, what do you usually like to do?"

Like… I don't understand." Ling Bo shook her head, "The commander arranges training, so Ling Bo just trains."

Qin Ge finally realized at this moment the words marked on the shipgirl compendium for Ling Bo's line.

Three-no girl!

Originally he thought it was just like Nengdai—silent, few words, lacking facial expressions, hard to fathom, an inwardly closed girl—but it seems not merely that…
