Chapter 664: Information on the Siren Stronghold Sea Area

"How is it, Enterprise, any findings?" Qin Ge, dragging his somewhat fatigued spirit, said to Enterprise via communicator.

After all, they had consecutively captured five Siren strongholds; almost the whole day, aside from marching, was spent in battle. Fortunately, in the evening, while on the way from capturing the third stronghold to the fourth, Zhenhai urged Qin Ge to take a nap, otherwise Qin Ge would be even more fatigued.

"Commander, we haven't found any trace of Siren strongholds here for now, but we are currently launching a large-scale search; we believe we will find them soon." Enterprise replied to Qin Ge.

"Understood, then please continue the search and report any information promptly." Qin Ge said.

"Received, but Commander, you should rest a bit during this time; if we later find consecutive Siren strongholds, we will face continuous combat, and such high-intensity combat will affect your body." Enterprise said to Qin Ge.

"I know, continue the search; I will have Zhenhai stay here to keep watch." Qin Ge said.

"Yes."

Immediately after, the two hung up the communicator; Qin Ge just turned his head and saw Zhenhai's half-smiling expression.

"Commander, I heard everything you promised Enterprise, so go take a nap right now; you are not one of us."

Moreover, don't say you refuse; after all, if our commander suddenly faints when facing the Arbiter, that would be a very damaging situation, and you wouldn't want that to happen, would you?

Hearing Zhenhai's words, Qin Ge knew he couldn't refuse this time. He immediately nodded and said, "I'll just lie down on the sofa here for a while; if anything happens, tell me quickly."

"Understood." Zhenhai said, amused.

As a result, Qin Ge had just lain down on the sofa when he instantly fell asleep; this also made Zhenhai feel a pang of heartache, so he immediately opened the ship equipment space, took out a blanket from inside, and draped it over Qin Ge's body.

Afterwards, he walked to the communicator, picked it up, and said, "The commander has already fallen asleep; as soon as he lay on the sofa he instantly fell asleep. These two days he's been worrying about our battles, and he's worked hard."

"That's fine, thank you, Zhenhai. If you weren't here, the commander would surely pretend to go to sleep." Enterprise's voice sounded, with an air of understanding; it seemed they had a private agreement.

"Heh, after all, the commander's stubborn nature isn't something of just a day or two; if I spent this long and still couldn't find a way to deal with him, then I wouldn't be called Zhenhai." Zhenhai smiled.

"Then please take care of the commander; next we will continue the work of searching for Siren strongholds." Enterprise replied.

"Hmm, during this time let everyone also resupply, maintain peak condition; that will give us more confidence in the upcoming battles." Zhenhai said.

"Got it."

After the two finished speaking, they hung up the communicator; Enterprise went to attend to her affairs, while Zhenhai came to the sofa's side, smiling, looking at Qin Ge's sleeping face.

When Qin Ge woke up again, it was already noon. He abruptly opened his eyes; first he noticed the blanket covering his body, then he looked to the side and saw Zhenhai smiling at him.

"Commander, you're awake; you can still sleep a bit more. We're still over half an hour's journey from the next Siren stronghold." Zhenhai said to Qin Ge.

"Next Siren stronghold?" Obviously Qin Ge hadn't expected that they had already found the next Siren stronghold; so he hurriedly rubbed his face with his hands, cleared his head a bit, and quickly asked, "Have they already found the next Siren stronghold?"

Zhenhai shook his head: "They did find Siren strongholds, but it's not just one; it's an area."

"An area?" Qin Ge was a bit stunned; he couldn't quite understand what Zhenhai meant by "an area."

Only seeing Zhenhai stand up and walk toward the sea chart, Qin Ge also immediately got up and followed Zhenhai to the sea chart.

"Commander, please look; the area of Siren strongholds that Enterprise discovered is right here." Zhenhai pointed to a spot ahead of his fleet's cursor and said.

"According to their detection, almost the entire area within this position is Siren strongholds, and a large number of Siren are emerging from there, then heading toward two different directions.

And those two different directions are respectively Sakura Empire and Donghuang, so we conclude that this area is the concentrated stronghold where the Siren attacking Donghuang and Sakura Empire are based." Zhenhai said to Qin Ge.

Qin Ge's eyebrows furrowed instantly; he asked Zhenhai, "Has Enterprise discovered exactly how many Siren strongholds are here? Or at least give an approximate number."

"At least not fewer than twenty." Zhenhai turned his head, looked at Qin Ge, and replied.

"Hah? Not fewer than twenty? You're joking." Qin Ge exclaimed in surprise.

"No, and we suspect this Siren stronghold is merely a gathering point for the attacks on the Sakura Empire and Donghuang Siren strongholds.

"Because, according to Donghuang's coastline and the reports from Anshan and Changchun, there should still be some scattered Siren strongholds similar to the ones we previously cleared." Zhenhai said.

"So, in this sea area, the number of Siren strongholds is no less than twenty-five, and could even be more?" Qin Ge exclaimed in surprise.

"That's the reasoning." Zhenhai nodded. "So currently we are advancing toward the concentration point's position; if we take out these Siren strongholds together, it will greatly relieve the pressure on Donghuang and Sakura Empire, allowing them not to constantly worry about the danger of annihilation."

Qin Ge nodded, his eyes fixed on the area Zhenhai had previously indicated, and said, "Then it's very likely the Arbiter is here."

"Yes, if we must choose a position, then this one is the most likely." Zhenhai said.

Qin Ge nodded, "Wasn't the Hai Lun Na from another world given me a flame mark badge? Enterprise said it's a beacon mark; remind her that if special circumstances arise, don't hesitate, use it immediately."

Zhenhai smiled, "Commander, rest assured; during the time you were asleep, we already held a brief discussion. We plan to first send submarines and carrier reconnaissance aircraft to conduct intelligence gathering in the airspace and sea domain.

"If we detect any abnormal situation, we will immediately use the beacon mark. Because after using the beacon mark, even if reinforcements arrive, they won't reach here right away; she has a certain amount of time."

"Heh, since you've already discussed it, then just follow your plan.

"This time the enemy we face is unknown, and her strength is extremely great; tactics in front of her will likely be ineffective, so we should use your warship girls' method to defeat her." Qin Ge showed no disappointment, stretched his arms, turned his head to look at Zhenhai.

"Thank you for the commander's trust; we will surely achieve victory!"
