Chapter 861: Document

A black silhouette flashed like a ghost upon the vast sea; she glanced around the silent waters, then resolutely stepped forward in a direction.

But in an instant, the scene before her underwent a fundamental change—the empty sea suddenly transformed into a high‑tech fortress.

However, the black shadow seemed already quite familiar with such a scene, showing no surprise, maintaining a calm expression as it walked inside.

Soon after, she appeared at a place resembling a central conference hall; her steps paused slightly, but she did not linger long and walked right in.

"You've come."

A clear, cold voice sounded in the hall, and immediately several people turned their heads toward the gradually approaching black silhouette.

"Hn." The black silhouette gave a soft hum, sounding emotionless. "Does summoning me here mean the first stage of the plan is complete?"

"Pretty much." said a white‑clad figure; upon closer look, it was actually the Observer of this world.

"If following your plan, the development of the target harbor area is still quite ideal."

"Indeed, as expected of someone like that, Qin Ge Commander's Cube has high adaptability—even the sea legend Wuzang Huteng can be easily summoned."

"Moreover, with Hai Lun Na's help and the data gathered there this time, I believe the plan ships will soon be produced in bulk." The speaker turned out to be He Mi Te, who had previously ravaged this world's seas.

"Then when will we carry out the second stage?" the black silhouette asked.

"Key Point G… no, Enterprise, there's no need to rush; everything requires some room to develop. Although Commander Qin Ge's fleet strength is progressing well, it hasn't yet met the requirements to launch the second stage."

"According to Laplace's prediction, he still needs over a year to complete the conversion of most ships." The Dream Weaver's cold voice rang out, just as she had said when welcoming Enterprise in.

"Over a year… that's not short." Enterprise said.

"But it's not long either—at least it's much better than the previous future that had only a sliver of hope." Dream Weaver said.

"... So why did you summon me this time?" Enterprise asked.

"Your side, Yujin, can begin operations; within this year and a half, try to integrate as much as possible into Commander Qin Ge's harbor area." Dream Weaver said.

"Understood." Enterprise nodded; these matters had been arranged from the start. Moreover, to eventually give the ship girls of all timelines a stable living environment, this must also be done.

"How is the Original World?"

"Everything is within normal development ranges; that exalted one balanced the Cube's energy, making it purer, so there's nothing else to worry about."

"Moreover, after experiencing such a great war, humanity's scrutiny of the unknown has become more rigorous; past mistakes won't recur. Dr. An Jie still handles the development of high‑intelligence AI—such work carries no pressure, so you needn't worry overly." Dream Weaver said.

Upon hearing that familiar name, Enterprise's aura softened considerably, losing the cold, lethal chill it had when first entering.

"That's fine." Enterprise turned and began walking outward, saying, "Just let me know if anything else comes up."

With Enterprise's departure, the hall returned to calm.

At the same moment, Guandao's environment was completely different from that.

Having not been in the harbor area for several months, the accumulated work naturally required Qin Ge to put in a good day's effort.

Although routine work is handled by Enterprise, some decisive documents still need to be kept for Qin Ge to personally review.

For this reason, basically no one comes to see Qin Ge on the first day, and he enjoys the leisure, reading documents while pondering the harbor area's future development.

"Commander, take a look at this document." Seeing Qin Ge finish reviewing the document, Enterprise handed him another and said.

"Huh? Any more? I thought they were all done." Qin Ge took the document doubtfully, tilted his head, and asked Enterprise.

"Uh… indeed there are none left, except this document was signed by everyone in the harbor area; perhaps it can be called the next step's activity plan." Enterprise spoke hesitantly, making Qin Ge wonder if the file contained something special.

Feeling doubtful, Qin Ge opened the clipped document and was immediately drawn to its title.

"A swimsuit party?" Qin Ge read aloud slowly, glanced at Enterprise, and said, "This…"

"Cough, this was Da Feng's proposal, though it passed with unanimous support from everyone." Enterprise explained.

Qin Ge rolled his eyes; the Sakura Empire ship girls always manage to conjure up something unexpected. Still, it sounded quite fun—Guandao here has a Pacific monsoon climate and is a famous vacation spot.

At this time the temperature is neither hot nor cold, so holding a swimsuit party would pose no problem.

Qin Ge quickly finished reading the whole document, looked up at Enterprise, and said, "How come this only lists the proposal, with no venue, required props, or other details?"

"Because they want you to join as well, so the venue and needed props are for you to personally arrange." Enterprise said.

Qin Ge smiled, "Alright, I still support this—after all, everyone agreed. In that case, ensuring safety, let's choose the beach we often go to before."

"The sand there is finer, and it counts as one of Guandao's best beaches; the scenery is also nice. As for the props, leave it to you to tally—take however many you need directly from the Hearth Goddess."

"So the Commander agrees?" Enterprise asked.

"Hehe, since it's everyone's unanimous request, I naturally should agree; the weather is so nice now, relax your mood and happily accompany everyone for a day or two—of course that's fine."

"Moreover, if we're holding it, we might as well go big—aside from the swimsuit party, we can add a barbecue, beach volleyball, and other competitions; if we're playing, let's go all out." Qin Ge said.

"That works; then I'll notify them to increase the entertainment items so everyone in the harbor can enjoy this party." Enterprise nodded and said.

"Hmm, I'll leave this to you; schedule it for the coming days—isn't there a storm expected to arrive in these two days?" Qin Ge said.

"Understood—this also gives them time to think, prepare what they need, and then be ready to start at any moment."

"Good."
