Chapter 610: Purifier's Reminder

Ah, I can't anymore, let me rest a bit.

Qin Ge muttered, then leaned against a sofa in the corner.

Just as he had thought, once he started dancing, he couldn't stop.

After a rough calculation, following his meal with King George V, Qin Ge had danced with at least dozens of shipgirls. He never left the central stage, and if he hadn't found an excuse, he probably wouldn't be able to rest now.

But before he had rested for a few minutes, several figures ran up to him.

"Huh, Commander, why are you here? Why aren't you dancing with everyone?" Biaoqiang said to Qin Ge, her eyes full of surprise.

Qin Ge smiled helplessly, "Just resting a bit."

Z23 tugged at Biaoqiang's clothes, "Biaoqiang, didn't you see earlier? The Commander has been dancing for over two hours, almost three—let him rest properly."

"Ah! Commander, you've worked so hard, sorry!" Biaoqiang hurriedly said.

"It's fine, but speaking of which, how come I didn't see you all just now?" Qin Ge asked the group.

Z23 explained, "That's because Laffey and the Purifier got together—just now Laffey kept running around looking for drinks, while the Purifier kept searching the table for food, so to look after them we've stayed in the opposite corner."

"Oh." Qin Ge glanced at the Purifier eating nearby and smiled, "Purifier, how's your time in the port area been? Anything unpleasant?"

"Hehe, this period has been fun; I've never lived like this before." the Purifier said with a laugh.

Qin Ge nodded with a smile, "As long as you feel good, the Siren Tide is coming up soon—you'll probably have to leave then, right?"

"Huh, how do you know?" the Purifier said strangely.

Qin Ge looked as if he'd expected this, "So it means your Sirens finally have a major operation this time, not confined to a single sea area but covering the whole range."

"Although I don't know how you got this information, I can say clearly that this operation is indeed different from any before. It's a pity your opponents aren't me, otherwise we could watch a splendid battle at sea." the Purifier said with a grin.

Qin Ge smiled, "Just because we can't this time doesn't mean we never will; someday we'll meet the Sirens face‑to‑face at sea for a proper showdown. I don't know what goal the Sirens pursue, but to protect our homeland and our seas, this battle is inevitable."

Biaoqiang beside him hesitated, "Commander, Purifier, must we settle this with war? You've been quite happy here in the port area lately."

Qin Ge shook his head at Biaoqiang, "These aren't decided by our will; the Purifier has her mission and duty, and we have ours."

"So even though we can be friends when there's no fighting, once battle breaks out we become enemies—it's that simple."

The Purifier nodded, chuckling as she said to Biaoqiang, "Remember, we Sirens are your enemies, the great villains who invade your sea rights and provoke war~"

"We have even more, stronger monsters waiting for you. So strive to grow strong; when one day your power surpasses ours, you will know all the answers." the Purifier said with a grin.

"Purifier..." Z23 and the others stared at the Purifier, for a moment at a loss for words.

Qin Ge smiled, "All right, I understand, but I hope your friendship can continue."

"Matters of the battlefield stay on the battlefield, but besides war we have lives, so on behalf of my port area I keep my doors always open to you. If you feel bored, come by and play for a while."

"Hehe, sure." the Purifier said, "Besides, Commander Qin Ge, I think your port area's research direction has deviated; setting such lofty goals from the start wasn't a wise choice. Sometimes the most common things may have deeper implications behind them."

Qin Ge stared for a moment, then gazed deeply at the Purifier before him. He sensed she was giving him a hint, so he asked, "What do you mean by common things nearby?"

"How did your shipgirls come to be?" the Purifier said, then laughing she pulled Biaoqiang and the others away, leaving only Qin Ge sitting where he was.

Watching the departing figures, Qin Ge narrowed his eyes and murmured, "The Wisdom Cube? It seems there's still a lot hidden in here."

As Qin Ge was pondering, a figure crept up to him. Sensing something, the thoughtful Qin Ge lifted his head, looked at the person before him, and said in surprise, "Fearless? How did you come here?"

At that moment, standing before Qin Ge, who else could it be but the third sister of the Glorious Class, Fearless?

Only see Fearless making a gesture with her index finger to her lips, then shushing, she sat down, lowering her body as if afraid of being seen.

Qin Ge looked puzzled, "What's wrong?"

"Commander, could you check if my sister is nearby?" Fearless whispered to Qin Ge.

Qin Ge sat up, glanced around, then told Fearless beside him, "No, what's up? Is Guanghui scolding you?"

"No, Commander, you know my personality; just now Sister Guanghui had me, Sister Victory, and Lord Hood together."

"They're all ladies, so being with them is tiring, so I sneaked out. I asked you to see if my sister was around because I feared she'd notice I'd slipped out and chase after me." Fearless explained to Qin Ge.

"Ha, that's the situation." Qin Ge chuckled, "I think you'd be better off just telling your sister straight out; I believe Guanghui's nature wouldn't stop you from being a lady. Then you could openly have your hobbies, no need to sneak around every day."

Fearless rolled her eyes cutely, "If only telling you that would work, but Sister Guanghui acts completely different toward me than toward you—she's strict, and I don't want to be lectured by her all day."

Qin Ge said, quite surprised, "Guanghui actually has that side?"

"Of course, but that's only with me, Victory Sister, and Unyielding." Fearless said somewhat helplessly, "Um, Victory Sister doesn't really count; she's more like Guanghui, except she likes to run over to Tierbici every day."

"Oh, so Unyielding is like you then?" Qin Ge asked with a smile.

"No, that guy Unyielding… he's just lazy, not my type at all. When the Commander summons her, you'll find out." Fearless explained to Qin Ge.
