How did I become a villain

Xianghe didn't seem to hear this question, it said: [I have answered your question as promised... Now, can I get a promise? 】

Stopping Saratoga, who was about to sarcastically, the girl said in a deep voice: [You say. 】

At this time, Xianghe's gray soul is gradually collapsing like a leaky balloon, and a large amount of matter inside is drifting to the surroundings along more and more holes, forming a layer of mist.

Exhausting its last breath, it said: [I know what you want to do, human beings... let my sister go...]

Saratoga laughed angrily.

Are you saying that, before you die, so that you can also appear human?

When you two sisters teamed up to sink my sister, did you let her go?How dare you intercede for your sister now?

【Do not make jokes! 】 She shouted angrily and gaffe. [This is absolutely impossible!You killed my sister, and I will not let your sisters go, this is what you asked for.I will find it, destroy it with my own hands, and send you sisters to reunite! 】

【How you treated my sister back then, I will treat you sisters now! 】

I'm not an enterprise, I don't have her open-mindedness to see through the world, I'm just narrow-minded, you will never be forgiven by me!

Xianghe's ship spirit didn't wait for Griffin's reply. As the rotation stopped, its last remnant body turned into a spiral under the inertia, like ink dots soaked into the water, scattered and disappeared.

Even though Xianghe disappeared, Saratoga still stared at the direction in which the opponent disappeared, the round white sphere fluctuated violently, and the lingering anger still persisted.

After a long time, she let out a long sigh and forced a laugh with a weary look.

[I made you laugh. 】Saratoga looked very disappointed, and even his tone became much lower. [Sorry, Griffin, I forced you to ask the third question. 】

[Understandable. ] The girl nodded. [The matter is over, so don't mention it again. 】

【You can be so open-minded, but I can't. 】Saratoga understood Griffin's reassurance, but still shook his head again and again. [I also kept convincing myself... I almost succeeded.But after knowing her location, I still couldn't hold back.Lying there is my older sister. 】

Griffin was silent.

After a long time, she said: [Now there is only one Ruihe left.After the purification, let's go back to Yokosuka Port for a while to rest.Then head back to the east coast. 】

Saratoga made no answer.

Zeppelin agreed with the proposal.

So after removing a piece from Shōkaku's body, she returned to the ship.After resting and resting for one night, Zeppelin headed towards Luzon Island in the Philippines at a high speed of 34 knots early the next morning.

Ruihe sank somewhere in the sea basin more than two hundred nautical miles east of the island.

Volume 254.6: [-] Sister-in-law and the sister-in-law next door

"The Ruihe here is the last source of infection to be purified on our trip." Griffin announced to the officers and men of the ship. "And then we headed east all the way back to New York City."

The officers and soldiers serving on the Zeppelin lacked understanding of the purpose of Griffin's trip. Compared with normal sailing training, the matter of purifying the ship mounds of the United Fleet is more like a "secondary school" of this beautiful captain Behavior.After all, they have never seen the scene of the seabed with their own eyes, nor have they personally experienced her dangerous situation on the bottom of the sea, nor have they encountered similar situations around them. They really lack sufficient understanding and empathy for this.

But when they heard that this was the last stop and they would be going home soon, cheers erupted from the crowd, which boosted their morale a lot.

After sailing on this vast sea for several months, many people are eager to return home.

Jumping into the water, Griffin sank all the way with the two ship spirits, and soon reached the bottom of the sea at a depth of more than 5000 meters.In this open area with few ups and downs, the wreckage of Ruihe lay there quietly.

Since there were not many experienced pilots on the last voyage before his death, Ruihe carried more rookies as bait, and when it sank and became a ship mound, the comprehensive strength of its infection source was far from that of Xianghe.

The fighting will and strength of the crew who died together were not enough, and Ruihe's extreme consciousness threat was also greatly weakened.

These undead and the extreme consciousness carried by the hull can't make waves in front of Griffin's super powerful five-speed vacuum cleaner.

Probably because he was aware of his identity as a bait, Ruihe didn't have any desire to fight, and the source of infection couldn't manipulate the wraith to launch an offensive like other sunken capital ships.The difficulty of dealing with it is even simpler than Akagi, so that Griffin has a feeling of punching cotton.

Even Zeppelin noticed the abnormality, and she was quite confused and said: [What's going on, it's easier than the source of infection that was purified before, did it give up resistance? 】

Fortunately, she was well prepared as if she was facing a big enemy, but in the end she didn't even have a decent resistance.

Saratoga heard something from the company, and said: [As a bait ship, after learning about its own fate, I am afraid that I have lost the desire to fight.Heh, it seems that even if the ships are of the same class, their combat effectiveness is not completely close. 】

As for its ship spirit, even if it really existed, at the moment it was abandoned, most of it also dissipated along with it.

Before facing Ruihe, Saratoga had considered countless tactics to deal with each other when they met each other, and now this result disappointed her greatly.

Instead of experiencing a fierce battle as imagined, one's own team narrowly beats the opponent's picture in the end, but instead ushered in such a mediocre result.Thinking of the final predicament that Ruihe, who once ruled the Pacific Ocean, faced, Saratoga also lost the idea of ​​continuing to taunt the other party, and it was inevitable that he lost interest in his heart.

The reprimand and pleasure that I wanted to say to this wreck, I don't want to say it now.

Saratoga suddenly felt tired.

[I'm going back first, you can figure it out for yourself. ] Leaving the scene to the apprentice, she quit the chat first.

Back in Bayonne, Saratoga looked at the tourists on her own ship, and the introduction board describing Lexington standing indoors, and sighed at the calm and unchanging blue sky.

With the memory of my sister, it's not bad to spend my old age here like this.

Are you relieved?I guess so.

When you're bored, don't you still have a business? New York City is just across the sea, and Griffin and Zeppelin are there too.

Saratoga seems to have plans for its future.

Zeppelin, who was far away in the Philippine Sea, sensed that the other party had left, and then asked the girl carefully. [Master seems to be preoccupied, is she okay? 】

Ever since he assisted in eliminating Xianghe, Master has been in a low mood.Today, I managed to get motivated and said that I wanted to kill Ruihe, throwing away my helmet and armor, but the whole process felt a bit anticlimactic.

It should be a happy thing to get revenge, why is it even more depressed?

[Maybe it's because the shackles that have been held for a long time have finally been opened, and I can't find the direction of Chuansheng for a while. ] Picking up the fragments of Ruihe's hull and putting them away, Griffin guessed.

The two cranes were finally defeated by their former opponents, including Lexington, and this reincarnation should have been closed long ago.But Saratoga still insisted on taking revenge herself, and this was probably a pity that she missed several important naval battles.

This is not only as simple as revenge, but also an explanation for himself.

Now, the boatmen in Saratoga probably have no regrets, right?

【Dear……】

【Um? ] Griffin recovered from the call.

I saw Zeppelin's chubby soul leaning against her side, and a suitable temperature was being transmitted from the other side.

[We witnessed the disappearance of a ship spirit, and I can't forget what she looked like before she disappeared. 】Her tentacles entangled the girl's equatorial area and got tangled up with her hand. 【In the end, she was still thinking about her sister. 】

Such deep feelings really made Zeppelin envious, and even felt a little bit of sympathy.

Griffin's attitude toward the two sisters is much calmer.

The two cranes have been inseparable since their birth, and they can be regarded as good sisters with deep feelings.As the elder sister, Xianghe has attracted a lot of firepower on the battlefield, and has also intercepted many attacks aimed at the younger sister. It is not difficult to understand such thoughts.

Although it is touching to see the picture of sisterly love, with the two cranes as the aggressor side, it is difficult for Griffin to think of the fascist atrocities that were sheltered under the wings of these iron eagles and launched an attack on other countries. Empathize with them again.

If they deserve sympathy, don't the countries and peoples who have been invaded deserve more sympathy?They don't have siblings anymore?

For some things, when empathizing, one has to consider an extra level of position.

[Now I can only hope that their crimes have been wiped out with their own deaths. ] Griffin can only comfort his wife in this way. 【What we can do now is to put away these distracting thoughts and cherish the moment. 】

[I hope they can fight for universal justice and axiom in the next life. 】

The death debt is eliminated, and Griffin will not vent his anger with their corpses. He still needs to have the bearing of a descendant of a great country.

The hero of the other, and the enemy of mine, she regrets more about their origin and camp that they cannot choose.

[Actually, I feel very lucky. ] Zeppelin said. [Although in the end I did not participate in the great war to expand the territory of Germany, it is precisely because I have not been stained with the blood of innocent people that I can live so easily. 】

Volume 255.1: [-] Returning

【But more fortunately, I know you. 】

This ship spirit, which usually pretends to be deep, is actually surprisingly simple.Compared with the company that always has something in its heart and Saratoga that pretends to be strong, Zeppelin is really a bit cute.

Of course, she also understands that as a warship, it should serve war, whether it is a war that is happening now or a war that may happen in the future, whether it is a just war or an unjust war.Fighting was originally a duty, and legitimacy would only affect her morale at most.

She has no objection to participating in necessary wars, but she also enjoys the leisure of peacetime.

It wasn't until she got to know Griffin that she realized that she couldn't be wrong, but she wasn't quite right either.Griffin taught her the distinction, and made her aware of some previous misconceptions about lack of humanity.

The ship spirits that advertise themselves as soldiers are always indifferent, but if they have the opportunity to make themselves think like humans, and even bring human touch, they will not refuse.

Provided it's worth them changing for it.

No matter the cause is something or someone, as long as they are willing to show their humanity, it is the beginning of the transformation of the ship spirits.

【Of course, isn't this my luck? ] Griffin agrees. [If what Xianghe said last about the birth of the ship spirit is true, I think we should go find Xuefeng... By the way, her name should be Danyang now. 】

In fact, she has roughly guessed that the reason for Xuefeng's birth of the ship spirit is from the humanity and friendship of previous captains and crew members, but she still plans to go to confirm it in person.

If this is true, then Parseval must recover in this way.Maybe that's the only way to make it into a ship spirit.

[But... this trip has reached the physical and psychological limits of the crew, and the timing is not right, let's go back to the east coast to recuperate, and then wait for the right opportunity. 】

After several days of sailing and transmission, Zeppelin finally returned to New York before the end of September, handed over the work, unloaded the crew and entered the canal for repairs.

This trip to sea has been fruitful. Except for King Kong who is still sinking in the East China Sea, and Yamato, which is close to Japan's Kyushu Island, Griffin has already purified the sources of infection of the main warships of the United Fleet since the birth of the Yamato.The remaining two places are too close to China, and the other is a concrete representative of the collective will of the Yamato nation, which is not easy to deal with.

When she returned to New York this time, in addition to making new plans, she also had the idea of ​​waiting for the right time.

"Has anything changed in my absence?"

When Griffin asked about Skati, the other party pulled one from a pile of papers.

It was a sticky note from the White House, and Griffin laughed out loud after just looking at it. "Johnson actually asked S.H.I.E.L.D. to cooperate with the Seventh Fleet and station in Taiwan? What did he think?"

A mental illness is a mental illness, thinking very differently from normal people.

Wouldn't he think that as long as MacArthur holds the flag of the United Nations to participate in the war, it means that the United Nations has also participated in the war, so the subordinate warships should also obey his command unconditionally?

Others don't know, don't I know what such behavior means?Not to mention that the neutrality of S.H.I.E.L.D. has been broken, the aircraft carrier can't carry out such a task alone, can it?Besides, this is also a matter of seriously provoking the sovereignty of other countries. Could it be that I can't figure out the relationship here?

"For a country without large surface ships, two cruisers and six destroyers are enough to show off their power there. Mariana is not part of the US Navy now, and there is no reason to obey the orders of the US Secretary of Defense."

【Mariana? ] Zeppelin didn't react for a while.

The girl smiled and touched his wife's head. [It’s you who are talking about. 】

[My name is not Mariana! 】The two tentacles embraced their chests, and Zeppelin hummed.

It is better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail, and a German ship is not called an American name.

[Yes, yes, it’s just on the surface. ] Griffin reassured.

Skadi kept silent. She was only temporarily in charge of SHIELD when Griffin was away. When she was willing to communicate with people, she would let them "understand" in seconds. Otherwise, she only needed to play dumb to fool her. passed.

No matter how dissatisfied the people coming from the White House are, they dare not vent it to the alien.

On the contrary, Griffin felt a little regretful because he didn't see the other party's frustration when he failed to achieve his goal.

"By the way, there is one more thing." Carter, who was sitting aside, put a smile on his face. "The Ministry of the Army is very interested in the self-propelled guns supported by our bipedal infantry squad, and has expressed its intention to purchase them."

"We are not a military-industrial complex, maybe uncle is, but I am not." Griffin replied. "This is the special equipment used by S.H.I.E.L.D. to prevent the crimes of supernatural beings around the world. On a battlefield full of guns, the effect is not as good as a trench. They probably want individual exoskeleton armor. ?”

Howard has always been in charge of the S.H.I.E.L.D. weapon research and development department, and Griffin will not open his mouth easily regardless of this matter.Instead of looking for her, it would be more practical to look for my uncle.

The kind of auxiliary equipment that allows the wearer to walk on complex terrain is much more practical than a duckling that can only move forward on two legs.

Steve said: "It may not be useful on the big battlefield, but in small-scale conflict encounters, this is the existence that can determine the victory."

In his opinion, he also does not want such important equipment to be introduced into mass production by the US military.

"Then we should reject them all the more."

The super soldier project failed, and the U.S. Army still did not give up, and began to be interested in the individual equipment developed by S.H.I.E.L.D.Can't you put aside your own thoughts of abundant martial arts, there are so many veterans contributing labor, and it is not good to spend more time on building the country.

Of course, Griffin also understands that it would be weird if the other party really did this. Is the United States still the United States if it doesn't make trouble?

"Look closely at the arsenal at the headquarters recently. I don't want to find FBI or CIA agents there."

They also have to deal with agents from the KGB, arrest sympathizers of the red camp, and secretly investigate the Chinese who support their hometown. Now there is another job that may sneak into SHIELD to steal secrets. I don’t know Hoover and Shilenko Tefa will not pay you four times the overtime pay.

"Furry will look after it." Steve nodded.The old comrade-in-arms is from the CIA, and he knows the way of thinking of his peers best.

Griffin wanted to remind that that white egg was holding things in his heart all day long, and he was very obsessive, and it was not a good thing, but seeing that Steve trusted the other party so much, he didn't say this.

Volume 255.2: [-] Loki in action

Near the Marshall Islands in the Pacific Ocean, on a beautiful beach, Rocky in different clothes stepped on the soft sand and stood in front of the wreckage of a warship.

After coming to Midgard, he carefully concealed his existence, followed Griffin all the way through magic monitoring, and finally came here.

Prior to this, he had already studied the opponent's path of action, and they all went to some naval shipwreck sites. Through his avatar, he checked the naval archives in these areas, and all of them sank warships from a country called Japan on this planet.

She really insisted on fulfilling what she said in Alfheim, trying to purify the extreme will from these warships.
