Chapter 390: Another Fleet Flagship
Watching Laffey gradually walk toward Belfast, Qin Ge smiled and shook his head, then turned back to look at the construction device before him.
He picked up two Wisdom Cubes and 1500 units of supplies from under his feet, placed them into the heavy construction device beside the light construction device, and pressed the start button.
Although this time mainly summoned light ships, Qin Ge also wanted to increase the strength of heavy cruisers. So he reserved several slots for heavy construction, hoping to summon the shipgirl he wanted.
As the heavy construction device began to rumble, the shipgirls of the eight fleets behind Qin Ge stepped forward in unison. Because among the light construction, the only flagship likely to appear was Yixian.
However, since Yixian belonged to the Donghuang fleet, they didn't pay much attention. But heavy construction was different, because most of their fleet flagships were battleships.
When the construction device's sound gradually faded, a time appeared on its screen.
5:50:00.
After this time appeared, all the fleet envoys turned their gazes toward the Royal and Iris.
Although Qin Ge didn't know which shipgirl this time slot corresponded to, the high-level envoys of the eight fleets knew exactly who it was.
"As expected of the incarnation of miracles, do you think this time we could summon the Royal Navy's Glory, or the Archbishop of the Iris Cathedral, or that famous pirate?" Looking at the time on the screen, Scharnhorst's eyes flashed a cold glint as he turned his single eye toward Hood and Victory.
"I hope Commander Qin Ge can summon Miss Hood, so the completion speed of his Project Ship in his hand can be faster." Hood said with a smile.
Scharnhorst let out a light snort, and the other fleets' shipgirls also smiled slightly. Because what Hood said was correct, if Qin Ge truly summoned Hood, his Project Ship's progress would definitely be faster.
"But if he summons Miss Barl or your Iris Archbishop, how would you report it, Victory?" Yue Ke Cheng said with a smile.
"Miss Yue Ke Cheng, you're joking; our purpose here isn't just to witness Commander Qin Ge's growth, is it? If we truly summon Archbishop Lisailiu, I will naturally report it truthfully." Victory said with a smile, not losing face before these main shipgirls.
"Then, Miss Akagi, who do you think Commander Qin Ge could summon?" Gneisenau turned his eyes, looking toward the smiling Akagi beside him.
"Hehe, I have no expectations about this, but one thing is certain: no matter who is summoned, Commander Qin Ge's fleet strength will definitely increase." Akagi said with a smile.
However, after Akagi finished speaking, although no one showed anything on their faces, they all felt helpless inside. Indeed, as a former leader, his words and silence are the same, yet you cannot deny them.
Because the shipgirl of this time slot will definitely be a battleship, for a commander's fleet, adding a battleship will certainly increase its strength. So Akagi was simply stating the obvious with eyes wide open, an indisputable platitude.
"Actually, guessing now is useless; only after Commander Qin Ge summons that shipgirl will we know for sure who she is, right?" Gan Gute said.
The other shipgirls nodded in unison, then turned their gazes toward the distant Qin Ge. At this moment, Qin Ge was holding the Rapid Construction Tool, placing it into the construction device's slot, and pressing the activation button.
As the construction device began to roar, the time on its screen quickly reset to zero. After the device fell silent, its hatch slowly opened, and a golden light shot through the thick smoke, instantly filling the entire Grand Hall and spilling out from its windows.
Watching this scene, the envoys of the eight fleets all showed solemn expressions. This abnormal summoning scene, if it were an ordinary Super Rare Shipgirl, would be impossible; thus there is only one possibility.
Before Qin Ge, the smoke inside the construction device gradually dissipated, and a figure appeared before him.
Solemn, dignified, untouched by worldly fire—this was Qin Ge's first impression upon seeing that figure.
She had golden long hair, a cross-shaped hairpin on her head, wore a white-and-red outfit, and had a wide cloak behind her. Standing still there, she exuded a hint of majesty.
Just as Qin Ge was somewhat dazed, the shipgirl opened her wine-red eyes and said to him, "I am the fleet leader of Iris, Cardinal Lisailiu. If you also fight for faith and freedom, I will bring you victory, Commander."
As Lisailiu spoke, the eyelids of the eight fleets' envoy shipgirls twitched involuntarily.
Third one!
This is already the third fleet flagship summoned by Qin Ge. Weineituo, Bisimai, Lisailiu—these three names, to them, represent the highest combat power and the names of powerful fleets, yet now they have become shipgirls of the same commander.
The most surprised was Victory of the Iris fleet, who had once thought Qin Ge might summon the Iris fleet's flagship Lisailiu, but never expected it to happen so quickly.
Having left Iris and arrived in Donghuang only a few months ago, she personally witnessed this miracle.
Looking at that familiar red figure, Victory couldn't help but feel a headache; earlier she had told Scharnhorst she would report truthfully, but now she didn't know how to report—should she directly tell her own archbishop that her namesake ship had been summoned?
However, at this moment, compared to Victory's troubled expression and the other fleets' shipgirls' surprised feelings, Qin Ge appeared very excited.
He naturally knew that Lisailiu was the final battleship built by Iris, also the largest-tonnage battleship ever built by Iris, mainly to respond to and counter the Sardinian Empire's Weineituo-class battleships.
He already had Weineituo, and now Lisailiu appeared—this could be considered fate's design.
Thinking this, Qin Ge smiled and extended his right hand to Lisailiu, saying, "I am Qin Ge; from today onward I am your commander. I hope we can deepen our understanding in the days to come and strive together for our ideals."
Lisailiu smiled, nodded, and likewise reached out to grasp Qin Ge's hand, saying, "May you also receive heaven's blessing."
