Chapter 598: The Adorably Clumsy Purifier

After the simple meeting ended, Bisimai hurried back to Saipan Island without stopping.

She said that the mass-production work there had reached a critical stage, and if things went smoothly, the first mass-produced warship could appear as early as when the Siren Tide erupts.

This is also the first and most important step in Qin Ge forming the counterattack fleet, so it must be given more attention, and the diligent Bisimai is the perfect choice.

The remaining few stayed in Gangqu; although they were on guard duty, they were mainly responsible for conducting scientific research within Gangqu.

Everything in Gangqu is now on track; it cannot come to a complete halt just because a Purifier arrives.

Furthermore, Qin Ge assigned the reception duties to Ou Gen Qin Wang, believing that with her wisdom, she could learn more through ordinary conversation.

As the leaders of each faction took Qin Ge et al.'s decisions back with them, Gangqu gradually grew quiet, but in fact they hadn't relaxed at all. After fighting the Sirens for so long, they couldn't believe the Sirens would simply come to their Gangqu as guests.

Although most people held such prejudices, some were curious about the Purifier's arrival, the most likely being the destroyers and submarines.

At that moment, Ou Gen Qin Wang brought the Purifier to an entertainment facility and said, 'Outside it's pouring rain now; rest here for a while. You can play with everything here—I've already notified someone to come keep you company; they'll be over shortly.'

The Purifier looked around the environment and said, 'Your shipgirls' life is too good, isn't it? Besides fighting, you even have such a large entertainment hall.'

Ou Gen Qin Wang smiled and said, 'As Siren-type commanders, don't you have a place like this?'

'Where would we have that? We're stuck in our bases all day; as for what's inside, didn't you see the base you were building last time? It's boring, so I came over!' the Purifier complained.

Ou Gen Qin Wang gave a light smile, 'That's too pitiful—you control such a vast sea area yet live so simply; it's hard to believe.'

'There's nothing we can do; we're all bound by the rules plan, so many things we want to do we can't,' said the Purifier.

'Rules plan?' Ou Gen Qin Wang noted it silently in her mind, but didn't press further, for fear that probing might make the Purifier wary.

Just then, a figure walked into the lounge. Ou Gen Qin Wang and the Purifier turned to see Belfast dressed in a maid outfit.

'I hope I'm not disturbing you two,' Belfast said with a smile.

'Of course not, but why did you come here, Belfast?' Ou Gen Qin Wang wondered.

Belfast chuckled, looking at the Purifier not far away, 'A distant guest is still a guest; since you've temporarily set aside the reason for war, as a visitor coming to us, Gangqu naturally ought to show hospitality.'

'We have some snacks and tea made by everyone, as well as various drinks; I hope you'll like them, Purifier.'

As Belfast spoke, she noticed the Purifier beside the table, opened her Ship Equipment Space, and placed plate after plate of snacks on the table.

Inside were Dunkeerk's specialty macarons, Ou ruo la's flower cakes, and naturally Belfast's own scones and similar pastries.

Besides these snacks, there were also black tea, green tea, soda, coffee, and other drinks.

'Wow! What is this? What is this? How can it smell so good?' the Purifier exclaimed, eyes lighting up at the sweets and drinks, becoming excited involuntarily.

'Huh? Don't you even have sweets and drinks?' Ou Gen Qin Wang narrowed her eyes, then smiled.

'No! Absolutely not!' the Purifier declared firmly.

'Then what do you normally eat?' Ou Gen Qin Wang asked.

'We drink oil or charge up; as for eating food, we never have,' the Purifier added.

'I can understand drinking oil, but as for charging up—I recall that when we were in the Mirror Sea, the Observer told the master that you are our replacements; could I understand that you also need to be charged with Wisdom Cube energy?' Belfast asked.

'Yes, but it's not the Wisdom Cube; it's just pure Cube energy,' the Purifier said without hesitation.

'Hehe, that really is too pitiful—there are so many enjoyable things in this world; it seems you've been here so long and haven't tasted anything delicious,' Belfast said to the Purifier.

'Then can I eat these things?' the Purifier said, eyes shining as she looked at the items on the table.

'Of course you can; these are what Gangqu prepared to welcome you as a guest, so enjoy them fully. If you find anything lacking or not to your liking, feel free to find me anytime,' Belfast said.

'Great! Really great… mm.' the Purifier said, then grabbed a snack with her hand and started eating, her face showing a happy expression.

Belfast and Ou Gen Qin Wang exchanged a glance at this sight, both eyes flickering with a hint of a smile.

They hadn't expected the Purifier to be so easy to deal with; they had thought all Siren-type commanders were the old, crafty sort who planned everything in advance.

But at this moment, the Purifier's cute clumsiness made the two let down their guard involuntarily, for her expression was utterly genuine—such sincere emotion could not be faked no matter how hard one tried.

It seems we previously overestimated the Sirens; while there should indeed be some crafty planners among the Siren-type commander units, it's certainly not the case that everyone is like that.

At the very least, the Purifier before us is not like that, so we can now be certain that everything she said earlier is true. As she said, she came to Qin Ge's Gangqu simply because she was bored out of her mind.

At this moment, Ou Gen Qin Wang winked at Belfast, who then nodded and left the lounge.

Soon she arrived at the warehouse beside the lounge and said to the four people before her.

'Ladies, you've surely seen what just happened; the Purifier isn't nearly as frightening as we imagined, so we're now implementing the second plan.'

'Sister Belfast, what is the second plan?' a girl asked Belfast.

'Set aside all your prejudices and befriend the Purifier. Furthermore, make use of her time in our Gangqu to let her develop a bit of feeling for this place, or for you,' Belfast said.

'Is that our task?' another girl asked in surprise.

'Yes, show your true nature and act naturally; you are the master's top choice, so keep it up,' Belfast said with a smile.

'Yes.'
