Chapter 411: Dumplings

Qin Ge early the next morning went together with Belfast to the construction center; obviously there was no one inside the construction center now because it was too early.

And Qin Ge did not tell the other eight major factions about this construction, after all it was a spur-of-the-moment idea, and also counted as the final construction inside the academy.

It's already almost May, and the graduation season will come soon; taking advantage of this period, he can completely let the newly summoned shipgirls improve their proficiency.

That way, after graduation he won't have to worry about the proficiency of the newly arrived shipgirls and can directly deploy them on the battlefield.

Thus, Qin Ge took Belfast to a corner spot and began his construction.

When he placed two cubes and 1,500 units of supplies into the construction device, a number appeared on its screen.

4:25:00.

Qin Ge looked at the number and nodded; if it were a heavy construction device producing a shipgirl, this time would definitely correspond to the Tiancheng-class, Ise-class, or Colorado-class.

But now it is a Special Type Constructor, so the most likely result is an aircraft carrier. And according to Qin Ge's knowledge, the only aircraft carrier available in this time range is the Aisaikesi-class from the White Eagle.

As for why Qin Ge is so certain, it's because this construction time was personally told to him by the White Eagle's Aisaikesi. After all, Aisaikesi had already seen Qin Ge construct once, so he is also very aware of Qin Ge's luck.

Not only Aisaikesi, but also several Awakened Shipgirls from other factions told Qin Ge their construction times. Although knowing these intermittent times cannot change the outcome, at least it can give Qin Ge some mental preparation.

Thus Qin Ge placed a Rapid Construction Tool into the construction device's slot and quickly pressed the activation button. The construction device began to roar, the hatch gradually opened, and a golden light accompanied by mist seeped out, revealing a figure before Qin Ge and Belfast.

She had a head of beige long hair, loosely draped over her back, and on her hair there was also a black rose hairpin, revealing her white forehead. She wore the cloak unique to the Aisaikesi-class, but because the collar was relatively high it covered her mouth, giving her a very mysterious appearance.

The shipgirl looked at Qin Ge, her eyes becoming sharp: "Aisaikesi-class Bunker Hill, named after that brutal battle in the War of Independence, she had been active on many battlefields… but war only brings sorrow and pain, no need for many words."

Qin Ge realized that the fame of the Aisaikesi-class aircraft carrier was well known even to him at that time. After all, it was the most numerous aircraft carrier built by the White Eagle, and it had garnered all glory on the Pacific battlefield; the only ones that could rival it were the Enterprise aircraft carrier that fought from start to finish, and their junior Midway-class aircraft carrier.

"Hello, I'm Qin Ge. From today onward I am your commander. Although war only brings sorrow and pain, we can still guard peace amidst war; that is our duty and our mission. So please guide me in the future." Qin Ge extended his hand to Bunker Hill, smiling at her.

Bunker Hill stared for a moment, "Guarding peace? To place oneself amid the ugliness and slaughter of battle, to bring beauty and tranquility to others—interesting."

Bunker Hill, a member of the Aisaikesi-class, will from now on join the fleet and obey your commands. Rest assured, there will be an opportunity to witness my strength.

Qin Ge gave a slight smile at Bunker Hill, who was holding his hand, "Yes, I look forward to your activity on the battlefield. But please wait a moment; I still intend to summon a few more companions."

"Hmm." Bunker Hill nodded, released Qin Ge's hand, stood behind him, and watched Qin Ge continue summoning shipgirls.

Qin Ge picked up the cubes and supplies, placed them into the construction device just as before, pressed the start button, and a time appeared on its screen.

4:25:00.

Qin Ge stared for a moment, turned to look at Bunker Hill, "Um, this time it seems to be another member of your Aisaikesi-class."

"Sisters? I'm actually looking forward to it." Bunker Hill said coldly, and this let Qin Ge faintly see a shadow of Bisimai on her.

Qin Ge smiled, turned his head, placed the Rapid Construction Tool into the construction device; as the device roared, a golden light seeped from the gradually opening hatch, and a figure gradually became clearer in the mist.

She had a head of light purple long hair, with a feather-like decoration on the left side of her hair that was especially vivid, and she wore the standard Aisaikesi-class uniform cloak.

When this figure appeared, Bunker Hill shouted her name: "Ticonderoga."

Upon hearing that appellation, the shipgirl's gaze swiftly turned to Bunker Hill; after seeing her, she gave a slight smile but did not speak, instead turning her gaze back to Qin Ge.

"I am the sixth ship of the Aisaikesi-class and also the first Aisaikesi-class with a long hull. I was once called Hancock, later renamed Ticonderoga to commemorate that significant war… Well, that's about it." Ticonderoga smiled at Qin Ge, being neither as stern as the Aisaikesi Qin Ge had seen nor as aloof as Bunker Hill.

Qin Ge gave a slight smile, extended his right hand toward Ticonderoga, and said, "Hello, I'm Qin Ge. From today onward I am your commander; please guide me in the future."

Ticonderoga smiled and returned the grip of Qin Ge's hand, "Hello, I am Ticonderoga, joining the fleet from today. You look just as I imagined—a very excellent commander. As a first step to improve relations, would you like a greeting hug? Hehe~"

Having received special attention from Guanghui and Belfast, Qin Ge was no longer the shy person who used to blush at girls; he smiled and said, "If you think a hug can bring us closer, then I won't refuse."

Heave-ho!

What Qin Ge didn't expect was that Ticonderoga would hug him so directly. Feeling the softness in his arms, Qin Ge smiled and patted her shoulder, "How about it, do you feel the distance between us has narrowed?"

"Hehe." Ticonderoga released Qin Ge, smiling, "Of course, I feel our relationship with the commander has grown much closer; it will surely become even more harmonious."

Qin Ge chuckled, "Then you can first chat with your sister Bunker Hill; I still need to construct more companions."

"Understood!" Ticonderoga said to Qin Ge, then turned and walked to Bunker Hill's side.
