Noshiro suddenly realized that in the past, she often used her legs to encourage the commander. Everyone was just planning to help her magnify her charm after a group discussion.

"Besides that, the suture system said that the commander's client only rated our compatibility as 'medium', but if I can wear the leg ring for you, it seems that the compatibility can be improved appropriately. I don't know what the principle is, but just do it."

Akagi was still a little unwilling to send Noshiro away, but she suppressed her terrible sense of emptiness and insecurity, and leaned towards Noshiro together with Amagi, solemnly requesting: "Please bring the commander back, Noshiro-kun. Even if he can't come back, please convince him to take a few more sisters out to see the world—"

"Don't be like this, Akagi-senpai, I will do my best to clear the way for everyone."

Amid Akagi's sobbing and Amagi's comforting voices, Noshiro, dressed in armor, walked out of the Sakura Empire official residence and onto the red carpet.

"play music!"

Frederick the Great personally composed a symphony for Noshiro and conducted it in person, with the performance by the Barbarian Orchestra. The girl, who had never enjoyed such high-level treatment before, felt that with every step she took, the burden on her shoulders became heavier as she was bathed in the eager and complicated gazes of her colleagues.

It concerns the happiness of everyone in the port area. She knows that this is not just a personal "adventure to find a husband"...

She wants to fight for happiness for every ship girl.

……

[Noshiro is ready. It is estimated that there will be one hour before the departure ceremony ends. The host can prepare to welcome the new reinforcements. ]

"Om!!"

The roar of the chainsaw sword cut through the snow and mist, splitting the Rift Remnant diagonally from the shoulder. The grenade launcher that once had to be held with both hands could now be operated with one hand due to the expansion of the body and muscles. Under the standard Astartes combat method that could not be more standard, the Rift Creature could not even move a single step under Sora's hands.

"Bang!!"

After the chainsaw sword whistled, the rocket-propelled warhead landed on the face of a rapidly approaching frost elf not far away in the air. The explosive bomb's boost and penetration did not work, and the armor of the elemental being was shattered on the spot. It sank into the snow and mist and merged with the ground, as if its existence was no more than a handful of smoke.

"Huh...did the girls hold a referendum? So quickly?"

[No, they fought, and Noshiro fought to the end. ]

…which fits Sora’s memory of the harbor very well.

The corners of his mouth twitched for a few seconds, and he turned off the chainsword. After the single-molecular chain blade stopped working, it "asthmaed", as if the machine soul was unhappily complaining about what kind of crap Kong was chopping, and it didn't give him any of the pleasure of madly harvesting aliens when he worked with Kong before.

"...At this time...it's about time to pack up and go back to rest."

Sensing the dissatisfaction of his "old comrade" in another sense, Kong could only nod to it, indicating that he would do the maintenance work later. Only then did it proudly stop its persistent mechanical whistling sound and return to calm.

He gave a thumbs up to Sanyue who was collecting her bow in the distance, then rotated his wrist twice and swung it back - Sanyue and Danheng both patted the melted snow on their hands, looking a little relaxed as if they had just got off work.

Although he could notify everyone on the public channel that he had finished the work, he was still on a teaching mission and had to show the Iron Guards the means of information exchange other than tacit understanding.

"Instructor - we all saw it clearly! But I'm afraid we can't learn your skills..." A little brother who used to be a Dihuo fighter ran over, his eyes full of admiration for Kong.

He had never seen a person who could be so smooth and make the monster "die" as eagerly as if he were hit by a chainsaw.

It's not an exaggeration. After Kong arrived at the edge of the Rift, he didn't march or attack at all. He just stood in a circle of about five meters, and the Rift monsters rushed to his sword one after another.

"It's okay. You just need to go back and watch the video and understand how to maintain an advantageous combat distance."

Sora encouraged them a few words.

Unlike the defense department in the space station, the Iron Guards need to quickly form combat effectiveness. If Kong wants to speed up this process, he must devote some of his companions' time and his own energy to guiding them and not be too afraid of trouble.

"Today's training ends here. Brothers... uh, you've worked hard. Go back and get some fuel to warm up your bodies."

"Yes, Instructor!"

"Oh huh, I can finally call it a day. I'm almost turning into a popsicle—" In addition to the responses from the Iron Guards, Paimon also made a sound as if his teeth were about to freeze.

Because she didn't want to stay huddled in the backpack, she had to chew on energy bars to maintain her body temperature while following Sora to clean up the rift.

The earth was exceptionally cold today. When the last ray of light disappeared, the snow mist had dissipated a little, but above the snowfield, the cold starry sky slowly revealed its true appearance...

In the four days before that, there was still a faint light shining through the sky above Belloberg.

But with the arrival of polar night, the environment became increasingly harsh. During this period of time, the area around Beloberg entered a truly "freezing cold". Kong was not sure whether it was related to the influence of the core of the star, but he knew that in such severe cold, the group of recruits behind him would consume all their body heat after only two hours of outdoor activities.

Unfortunately, no more marks left by Natasha were found. The large group of people moved out together and scared away the surrounding animals. It may also be that they all went to hibernate. There was no chance to find some local creatures that would interest Ruan Mei...

It's hard to have the best of both worlds when you have multiple jobs stacked up on top of each other, so Sora gave up his obsessive-compulsive disorder of "clearing tasks" and decided to tidy up and give Noshiro a good welcome.

"Let's go back to the camp. The cleanup here is complete, Nata. When the temperature warms up a little tomorrow morning, I will bring another group of Iron Guards here to set up a transit station in the camp and continue searching for traces of your brother."

After fighting side by side twice, Sora started to address Natasha as affectionately as Seele. Sora seemed to have expected nothing would be gained from this trip, and did not show any disappointed expression:

"Thank you. Maybe my brother didn't leave any other useful clues. I took up so much of your time..."

"No, I think there must be a secret passage nearby that even Sambo doesn't know about. Maybe he arrived at the surface from here and built a laboratory in the nearby ruins."

Kong shook his head. "Don't talk about occupying it or not. If the drug is really successfully developed, not only will the combat round-trip distance of the Iron Guard be greatly extended, but it can also be sold on the interstellar market. You will become very rich, Nata..."

"Drug patent fees?" Nata was a little yearning. She had heard from Toppa that the Kong and Train crew might be the richest group of people in the galaxy. If they were willing to invest in her own research, she would have more opportunities to give back to Beloberg.

"Yes, and what we need to fight is not the Guards, but those monsters. We must be prepared for the worst when fighting in the field."

Xi'er, who was gradually becoming more proficient at the technique, kicked the head of the creature away and took out the relic from underneath. Hearing this, he agreed: "Identify the culprit and don't make enemies randomly. That's what you said before, right?"

"Yes, now that Cocolia is no longer the number one enemy, we must be prepared to fight against inhuman beings."

After returning, discuss the shaping properties of the star core with Black Tower while working on it - and get to know the methods of "your own kind" well.

Oh, no, I have to welcome Noshiro tonight, play with Sanyue, and feed Ying and Heita...

Kong suddenly wanted to lie down in the snow and become a frozen tilapia.

"Noshiro won't hold on to me, but... there are always too many women and too little time..."

If you want to gain strength and make your body stronger, you need to call for more reinforcements, and then your body will become weaker... Isn't this a vicious circle?

"It's a good thing it's Noshiro who came, Commander... If it was a large battleship or an armored aircraft carrier, it would definitely be a burden on you."

Befa, who was standing by, couldn't help but laugh when he heard Kong's mumbling.

"Have you told Ms. Himeko about the newcomer?" Ying, who was forbidden to participate in the battle in order to avoid the need for demonstration, wiped the cake crumbs from the corner of his lips.

She ate her dessert while sipping the cold wind and taking a bite of the snow, which was a wonderful sight in the ice and snow.

"She's become a little numb. She said that as long as we bring the person over and register, everything will be fine." Kong hesitated.

"After all, I have to meet a new person every two or three days..."

Seeing his cowardly look, Paimon shrugged and said, "I feel that if you continue to expand your team endlessly, it won't be as simple as the train being dominated by women and the decline of men. You might really be kicked off by Jizi."

After returning to the train from Yalilo, Sora ran to Himeko in a hurry.

Although Ji Zi has become accustomed to this kind of situation where someone comes every now and then, he does not want his behavior of constantly introducing "talents" to be too annoying, so he still has to be polite.

"Is this girl from the same planet as Befa?"

After putting down her coffee, Himeko could no longer see the carefulness with which she had initially "selected" every girl around Sora. She was just curious about how much fresh blood Sora could bring in, and how big the train could expand to if he was allowed to keep bringing in new people.

Ji Zi never asked about Kong's private life. On the one hand, it was because he really didn't show any particularly bad side, and on the other hand, he was basically the second person in charge of the train - Lao Yang was on his side, the kids liked him, and everything he had done so far did not violate the pioneering spirit. Even the mark of "intelligence" on him was not as full as that of "pioneering".

That's why he was given the title of "Traveler" by the Master, and not anything else.

"To be precise, they are from the same world. The meta-world over there has become a little chaotic due to the Siren experiment, but Noshiro and Befa are comrades serving in the same fleet."

The corner of Kong's mouth twitched, thinking that Himeko drank such strong coffee at 6 or 7 every day, and her sleep was not affected at all. She must be gifted. "They didn't retire after I left the port. Although there was a lack of combat, it seems that Befa's combat effectiveness is still quite good. Noshiro won the first place in the port exercise, so she should be able to do the escort work."

"I'm not asking you to bring in any talented newcomers..."

Himeko is actually quite helpless when Sora repeatedly emphasizes the "value" of his female companions. She is just sympathizing with Sora's female companions from the perspective of a woman, but she has never required that every one of Sora's female companions must be valuable to the train... She is not that utilitarian yet.

But if you think about it, Sora would try so hard to promote his former companions... Doesn't this mean that Sora cares about his own opinions and the opinions of the original train crew...

At the same time, he really cares about the people he has worked with, both men and women, as can be seen from what she mentioned during March's report, about Sora's attitude towards the Masked Fool.

She didn't know whether it was because the time traveler lacked a sense of security or for some other reason...but Ji Zi decided to talk it out today, so that he could completely relax and treat the train as his home without any pressure, and treat Danheng and Sanyue as his own brothers and sisters.

"If you want to bring someone on board, you don't have to talk to me individually. Most matters on the train are decided by voting... As long as it's someone you trust 100%, just introduce them to everyone. After passing the voting on board, just go to Pam to register--"

Ji Zi thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to trust Kong's character, as well as Lao Yang and the children's judgment.

"Eh? But in this case..."

Paimeng, who was standing next to him, was also stunned when he heard this.

All of Kong's female companions are on his side. If Kong wants to vote to let someone get on the bus in the future, based on the current ratio, even if Himeko and the others object, whoever Kong wants to get on the bus will definitely be able to get on!

"...Himeko, isn't this a little too fast..." Kong also felt that something was wrong.

"As a navigator I have my own limitations. Haha, Sora, sometimes I feel like you're more of an old nameless person than I am. So it's okay. I believe in you."

"…Thank you. I won't let you down."

"...Do you say these kinds of things to girls every day that can be misunderstood?"

After taking another sip of coffee, Ji Zi saw Xiao Sanyue's head popping out from the guest room area, curiously looking at the situation here. She quickly adjusted her slightly hot face and maintained her mature and reliable personality:

"Also, I want to know something about that girl. From what you said, Nou Dai doesn't look very old, but her mind is quite mature? She looks like a fairy boat person?"

"It's still a little different. KanColles can truly achieve 'immortality', but they rely mainly on the Mind Cube to maintain their existence. You can also think of them as a mixture of carbon and silicon... Sorry, I've been arguing with Heita every day lately and I'm almost a nitpicker."

Kong quickly stopped himself from explaining everything: "The speed of time in each world is different. I don't know how mature the people on this immortal ship are. But Noshiro can do everything that an 'adult' can do in a broad sense, and he will definitely not cause any trouble for everyone."

"That's enough. Let's prepare a simple welcoming ceremony - or test. As long as the representative can pass more than half of the votes, she can get on the bus."

The smile Ji Zi showed to Kong at this time was no less than the smile of the goddess of luck, and was very "loving".

This is equivalent to announcing in disguise that Noshiro is now equivalent to a crew member.

"She will be fine... Well, I know that increasing the crew size will cause trouble for everyone... Himeko, is there anything I can do to help with the idea of ​​adding more train cars?"

"Adding more carriages requires the power of Akivali. If you only use the power of pioneering destiny, you need to keep practicing the road. There is no shortcut. Black Tower and I can only do more with the compressed space of the carriage, but even with our technical ability, your compartment can probably only accommodate one more person."

The Nameless Guests have been in decline since the fall of Akivali. Kong's behavior of calling people, which seems to be just for the sake of satisfying his selfish desires, can actually increase the overall strength of the Nameless Guests and nourish their destiny. Perhaps, when the belief in pioneering is carried forward again, they can all admire the appearance of the legendary pioneering star god again.

Of course, this was just Himeko's fantasy. Now she needed to give Sora a heads up, that is, how many people could live in the current guest room after she and Himeko made all-out efforts to renovate it.

"The upper limit of the compressed space is here. If I, Xiao Sanyue, and Walter's rooms are included and renovated, we can still accommodate about 18 people. In the short term, we can only maintain this small supply of personnel. If there are more, I'm afraid we will have to rely on less safe trailers - it depends on how you arrange it."

Dan Heng was excluded because he insisted on sleeping with the think tank...

Ji Zi thought for a moment and added, "But I think Walter's room should remain independent. He can't walk through the same corridor with your female companion every day. Unless your new friend is a man, it would be too inconvenient - there are still 12 seats left."

…Himeko has even taken into consideration the privacy of Sora and his female companions, so what is there to be dissatisfied about?

"It's okay. Once the pass is issued, I will let the girls go back to take turns to recover their overall energy. Jizi, you are so considerate."

"You're saying something that could be misunderstood again."
