"Cough cough cough cough ah cough cough ————" Xiao Bai, who was in the second-floor lobby, was waving his hand, trying to disperse the black smoke in front of him.
However, for some reason, the black smoke in front of him was much thicker than any smoke from a construction failure he had ever encountered before.
This isn't just a failure, it's a huge failure, a complete disaster! Inhaling this kind of smoke too much will definitely give you lung disease!
While feeling distressed, Xiao Bai quickly covered her mouth and bent over.
Bismarck, Missouri, and Saratoga rushed to Little White's side, opening the windows and fanning him for a while until the surrounding black smoke gradually dissipated.
Missouri and Bismarck fanned the air for quite a while before finally dispersing the surrounding black smoke and restoring peace to the Admiral's Guild.
"Xiaobai, cough cough, yes, cough cough, I'm sorry..." As soon as the black smoke dissipated, Nia, who was coughing with her mouth covered and her eyes squinting, ran to Xiaobai and apologized rapidly, "I didn't expect, cough cough, the failure reaction of this construction device to be cough cough cough... so big..."
"Nia, haven't you used it before?" Xiaobai asked Nia.
"No..." Nia was on the verge of tears, "I'm sorry..."
Nia isn't usually rich enough to use the ten-construction device. She only builds one batch a day. The existence of the ten-construction device was something that Guild Leader Er Gou proudly introduced to Nia one day in order to find an excuse to take advantage of her.
Sure enough, Nia realized she had been too naive; she had actually believed the words of President Er Gou, this lazybones, without a shred of doubt.
Nia regretted it.
It seems only naive people can be trusted in this world.
“They all failed.” After the black smoke dissipated, Bismarck walked up to the ten construction devices, looked at each one, and then said to Little White.
"Ah...that makes sense." Xiaobai gave a wry smile.
"Should we continue using it?" Bismarck asked.
"Ah, no! Use the regular one!" Little White quickly stopped Bismarck's actions.
This kind of machine, which causes widespread suffering with just one failure, is almost at the level of a biological weapon. Xiaobai thinks he should just go back to using ordinary construction equipment.
Xiaobai returned to the ordinary construction device that Nia had used before and poured the resources into it.
The giant iron egg scattered, and Xiaobai threw in the deep-sea metal and pressed the start button.
The construction device closed, the steel chestnut trembled incessantly, and then with a hiss, a plume of black smoke shot out from the construction device, drenching Xiaobai from head to toe.
"This kind of construction failure is to be expected..." Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief as he was bathed in black smoke that wasn't choking at all.
Bismarck waved his sleeves to disperse the black smoke, and then, under Little White's instructions, invested resources in various proportions into the current construction device.
A few seconds later, with a crackling sound, plumes of black smoke shot towards Xiaobai again.
Xiaobai persevered.
The black smoke persists.
Xiaobai persevered.
The black smoke remained constant.
Little white water drips and wears away the stone.
Black smoke lingered around the beams for three days.
Until the very end, the actions of Little White and Bismarck seemed to have become mechanized. They rapidly repeated the cycle of investing resources, starting construction, and then failing to complete the construction, only to continue investing resources.
During this cycle, black smoke continuously swirled throughout the hall.
Logically speaking, this should be a rather uncomfortable scene, but after experiencing the hellish failure of a dreamlike and incredibly cool ten-pull construction machine, this little bit of black smoke is already a drizzle.
As Xiaobai continued building, the ship girls behind her began to have some free time.
Missouri took some time to go to the first floor of the Admiral's Guild to buy some drinks for everyone. Seeing that this was not a good time to disturb the Admiral, Fubuki and Changchun found a place to sit down around Yixian.
With a maternal glow, Yi Xian began telling stories to the five destroyers before her. As she spoke, Cleveland and Takao Atago were also drawn in by the dramatic and captivating tales she was telling.
Saratoga also found a time to quietly sneak over to the Ten-Construction Machine and carefully observe the construction device.
Half an hour later.
Xiao Bai knelt down with a thud, supporting herself with her hands, tears welling in her eyes.
Before her, the construction equipment, which looked as if it had an upset stomach, was wide open, with wisps of black smoke emanating from its core.
Construction of ninety rounds has been completed.
The result was both surprising and unsurprising: Xiaobai failed to build it again.
Bismarck knelt down beside Little White and patted him on the shoulder: "There's more if that's not enough."
“Bismarck…” Little White looked at Bismarck with tears in his eyes, his eyes filled with emotion.
"Would you like another hundred?"
"...No need, really no need," Xiaobai said, shaking her head.
With Bismarck's help, Little White stood up.
"Humans really are forgetful creatures..." Xiaobai said with a sense of感慨.
“Little White…” Nia looked at Little White awkwardly, feeling somewhat guilty, “It’s all my fault… If I hadn’t invited you to build it, you wouldn’t have wasted so many resources…”
"Ah, Nia, it's alright, it's not your fault," Xiaobai quickly said with a smile to Nia. "It's just that I'm unlucky."
"noob……"
"It's alright, these resources are nothing to worry about," Xiaobai quickly explained to Nia.
Bismarck, standing behind her, nodded as well.
Nia felt relieved when Bismarck, who seemed incapable of lying, spoke up.
"Nia, let's go. We've already been delayed for quite a while because of me," Xiaobai said to Nia.
"Ah."
Xiao Bai composed herself and then searched the lobby.
Missouri also bought drinks, and Yatsen was chatting happily with the destroyers, while Saratoga stood quite far away.
Xiaobai looked at Saratoga and noticed that Saratoga seemed very interested in the large amount of black smoke that the Ten-Build Machine had previously emitted. At this moment, she was squatting in front of the machine, reaching out to touch the build button, looking eager to try it out.
"Saratoga, we're leaving," Little White called out to Saratoga.
Saratoga shrugged, then looked at Little White and nodded.
Xiao Bai then turned around and shouted back at Yi Xian.
Saratoga then turned his gaze away from the little white robot and back to the ten-unit construction machine in front of him.
"Eek." Then, Saratoga was surprised to find that when he was called by Little White, his hand trembled and he accidentally pressed the button for the construction device.
“…” Saratoga swallowed hard and observed the ten-unit construction machine for a while.
Fortunately, no resources were invested and the construction equipment was not started.
Saratoga breathed a sigh of relief, then patted his bottom and ran towards the white rabbit.
Xiao Bai was comforted by Nia, and everyone left the second floor in a harmonious atmosphere.
……
for a long time.
The ten-unit construction machine slowly began to move, and one of its large steel chestnuts slowly closed and began to operate, rising and falling rhythmically like a heart.
Several minutes passed.
"Ding----"
A microwave oven finishes heating up, and the sound of the construction machine, which holds ten times the hope, rings out.
Chapter 644: Guaranteed Purple Item in 10 Pulls
The noisy second floor of the Admiral's Guild gradually quieted down after Xiaobai and the others left.
Occasionally, a few admirals would bring their ship girls up to the second floor of the Admiral's Guild after handing over missions, and then leave in a hurry. Occasionally, a few admirals with substantial resources would walk up to the construction device with high hopes, praying and burning incense, and then, under the speechless gaze of their ship girls, activate the construction device, before leaving dejectedly in a cloud of black smoke.
Even the staff were sweeping the floor and organizing the files. They worked together so well that they didn't even need to communicate; they could handle everything just by looking at each other and doing things.
No one who came to the second floor noticed the large chestnut that was slowly brewing inside the Ten-Construction Machine, which was placed in the corner and was hailed as a tenfold hope,
Time passed slowly, and finally, at a certain moment, the guild manager's door was slowly pushed open.
Helena was the first to emerge from the room. She cautiously peered out and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the second floor was as peaceful as ever and there were no signs of vandalism.
"Don't be so nervous, we already said it's about the ten-time construction machine." Behind Helena, Guild Master Er Gou said rather obliviously.
"Admiral, danger often comes when you think it's safe," Helena muttered to the guild leader, Er Gou, as she walked out of the room.
"Okay, okay, I understand." The guild leader Er Gou behind Helena squinted, yawned, and waved as he passed by Helena, while his other hand gave Helena's butt a light pinch.
"Slap!" Helena gently slapped away President Er Gou's hand, her expression somewhat shy. "I'm going to get angry if you do that in public."
"Hehehe." President Er Gou let out a series of lewd, middle-aged man-style laughs that didn't match her pretty appearance. Then she touched the back of her hand, which had been reddened by Helena's slap. "See, the second floor is perfectly fine, isn't it?"
"Mm." Helena nodded.
"My ten-build machine is really excellent, you know." Guild Master Er Gou said, rubbing his reddened hand as he looked at his masterpiece.
"Huh?" Then, President Er Gou was stunned.
"Admiral, what's wrong?" Helena looked at the reaction of the Second Dog Guild Leader and also looked in the direction of the Ten-Construction Machine.
"The construction machine is still running." Guild Master Er Gou stepped over the iron pipe on the ground and walked to the innermost construction device of the ten-unit construction machine. He looked at it for a while and said, "Hmm, as expected."
"Huh?" Helena quickly went to President Er Gou's side when she saw him say that.
The construction device in front of President Er Gou was facing away from everyone. In addition, the incubation phase had ended and the Steel Chestnut had entered the construction phase. It no longer beat like a heart. From a distance, it looked exactly the same as if it had not been activated. Only when you walked to President Er Gou's position could you see the small LCD screen on the construction device that displayed the time.
"Hmm." President Er Gou pondered for a moment, pinching his chin as he looked at the LCD screen of the construction device. "Judging from the length of time, it's a large ship."
"Admiral, how did you find out?" Helena was surprised that the construction device could actually create ship girls, and she couldn't help but be amazed that President Er Gou could see at a glance that the construction device had been activated.
Even Helena, a ship girl who prides herself on her keen senses, couldn't see something without careful observation, yet President Er Gou could spot it with just a glance. To be honest, it's quite a blow to the ship girls.
"Ha, ha, ha." President Er Gou let out a string of three laughs, "Because I modified this construction device, of course I can tell."
"Oh..." Helena nodded with some doubt, then looked at the construction device in front of her with a puzzled expression, "Then who activated this construction device?"
"I'm not that sensitive yet." President Er Gou shook his head, then waved to the staff member in the distance, "Staff member A, staff member A, yes, I'm talking to you, come on, miss, I want to talk to you."
At the invitation of President Er Gou, the staff member, whom President Er Gou affectionately called Staff Member A, walked up to her somewhat reservedly: "President, is there anything you need me to do?"
"Hmm." Guild Master Er Gou smiled and patted the Ten-Construction Device beside him. "Give me the usage record of this morning's construction device."
"Okay." The staff member hurriedly ran back to the counter, picked up a small watch, and walked back to President Er Gou's side. "President, this is the usage record from this morning."
"Yes, I received it." President Er Gou smiled and took the form from the staff member, then flipped through it.
"This form is so annoying. I'll simplify it for her someday." President Er Gou muttered to himself with some displeasure as he flipped through the form. "Ah, I've reached today's one."
President Er Gou flipped to the latest page of the form: "Huh, Little Nia actually built it here this morning."
"Nia?" Helena heard the voice of Guild Master Er Gou and couldn't help but smile indulgently. "Did she successfully build it?"
"No." President Er Gou pouted. "Little Nia always avoids me. I told her that when it comes to handing over these kinds of tasks, she should just come to me and I can smooth things over for her."
"It's all because you, Admiral, keep taking advantage of her."
"Does hugging, kissing, licking, and making kisses with girls count as taking advantage of them? This is called being intimate." As Er Gou, the president, said this, a glistening drop of drool appeared at the corner of his mouth. "It's so great that I'm a girl."
"In a way, it's fortunate that you're a woman, Admiral."
"Does Helena also think this is great?"
"No, I'm just glad I don't have to go to the military police station every time I see you." Helena sighed, also expressing her helplessness at her admiral's strange quirk. "Speaking of which, was it Little Nia who used the ten-pull construction machine this morning?"
"No, that's not it. She just built one per day using a regular construction device." Guild Master Er Gou looked at the form in his hand, flipped through a few pages, and then handed the form back to the staff member beside him. "Well done, go back now."
Staff member A took the form and returned to the counter.
"Admiral, who used the ten-unit construction machine?" Helena asked curiously.
“It’s Little White Sister.” President Er Gou said to Helena with a helpless expression, “The form is covered with her usage records.”
"Huh? Little White Sister?" Helena was taken aback. "Does Admiral Lu Lin's naval base need more ship girls?"
"She doesn't lack any. Her ship girls are like a harem; it would take years for them to serve her in bed."
"That's what Admiral Lu Lin built..."
"Who knows what the big boss is thinking?" President Er Gou shrugged, then looked at the construction device in front of him. "In short, this should be a ship girl built by Little White Sister. She just dumped it here and left after it was built. She's really carefree."
