There is no fifth one yet; the patterns that have been summarized in the short term should be the four mentioned above.
While the ship girls were somewhat surprised that Xu Huan had acquired a new ability, they weren't entirely unexpected.
After all, in their eyes, Xu Huan's demeanor from beginning to end was completely unlike that of an ordinary person, and despite having known him for so long, they had never seen him in a disheveled state.
Given the above impressions, it's not surprising that they would learn a ship girl's skill.
Rather than saying that a stronger commander is a good thing in the eyes of all the ship girls except Hindenburg, it is a good thing.
"It sounds like it'll be really interesting... This new ability of the contractors can adapt to quite a few complex situations..." Hindenburg said with admiration, but his thoughts were actually quite complicated.
What should I do if I use stronger methods on Xu Huan in the future, and he simply uses a "mechanism to prevent" and runs away?
In that case, I'll have to get some drinks from Enmity before I go back to Ironblood.
"I feel that the commander should seriously consider the alternative skills..." Having already suffered a setback, the fearsome one now acted very obediently, but the implication in his words was that he really hoped Xu Huan would quickly change to a different skill.
It wasn't that she had any issues with Xu Huan...
Okay, I do have some opinions.
No matter what, they kicked me in the butt and used my skills, making me lose face in front of so many people!
If it weren't for the radiance pressing down on her, she could have immediately transformed into a grumpy older sister, waving her pink fists and giving kind advice.
“It’s definitely something we can consider. I feel that the ‘Mechanical Prohibition’ doesn’t quite fit my combat style…” Xu Huan nodded, agreeing with Ke Wei’s statement.
Since I already have a high speed attribute, there's no need to use this skill to reduce the opponent's movement speed, and I don't have any cannons or anything that I need to bombard from a distance.
"Well....?"
Kewei paused for a moment, then turned his head to the other side, clenching his fist again, but when he saw Guanghui smiling beside him, he could only let it loose helplessly.
In just one afternoon, Xu Huan offended her countless times.
I was just being polite. Are you really going to just trade away such a rare and unique skill like that?!
Why did Xu Huan feel even angrier after changing himself instead of getting angry?
Kewei felt that he must have been stimulated too much today and had been thinking too much about things.
Xu Huan was completely unaware of the somewhat twisted thoughts in Ke Wei's mind at this moment. After confirming the characteristics of his new ability, he kept thinking about whose skills he should learn.
From a long-term perspective, one of the best options is definitely the company's [LuckyE].
The skill's effects are simple and straightforward, and the short-term invincibility perfectly suits his combat style.
However, the other party is a ship girl from the Eagle Union, and geographically they are currently too far away. Even if they were closer, wouldn't it be a bit too direct to ask her to learn skills when they are not familiar with each other?
So, I'll just consider the Royal Navy ship girls from now on...
In the Royal Family, besides the formidable "Mechanical Impediment," who else possesses a unique and distinctive skill...?
As he searched through his thoughts, the young man suddenly stopped and frowned.
As a commander, it would be best to find the one that suits you best, but from other perspectives, choosing one that can bring benefits to the ship girls is not bad either.
My destination is Ironblood... What's missing from Ironblood?
"What are you thinking about, Xu Huan..."
Just then, Hu Teng, who had been walking beside him, noticed the young man's furrowed brows and sudden stop, and went up to ask him with concern.
"I've been thinking about something... Hu Teng, what kind of skills are you lacking on the Ironblood side?"
"Oh, so that's what it is... But I thought you already knew."
Even so, Hu Teng still smiled slightly, pleased with the young man's expression of concern for the Iron Blood.
"Actually, Ironblood isn't too bad in most aspects, but it lacks a ship girl specifically for medical purposes. Princess Rebecca said she should be able to have healing abilities in the future, but who knows how long that process will take... As for Adele, she's said to have healing skills, but it doesn't seem very reliable..."
"Xu Huan, if you're planning to consider this aspect, it could probably be quite helpful..."
"Healing skills? I understand..."
Xu Huan nodded, greeted the rest of the group, and then turned and headed straight for the port area's medical room.
Putting everything else aside, he's quite familiar with Unicorn and Perseus, so learning a healing-related skill shouldn't be a problem for him.
Chapter 185 Commander, are you sick?
When Xu Huan arrived at the infirmary, it was not yet lunchtime. Perseus, still wearing that alluring nurse's uniform, sat expressionlessly with her legs crossed at the table.
Perseus was fully aware of Xu Huan's plans to depart for Ironblood, and upon seeing the young man arrive, he asked with some confusion:
"They say the early bird catches the worm, but instead of preparing for the upcoming voyage, Commander, you have time to come here?"
"That's why I came here. I need to go out to sea."
Since they had already taken off each other's pants, Xu Huan was very relaxed and casually sat down on the sofa next to him.
"No wonder... Javelin that kid came over not long ago too, saying he was planning to go out with you and needed to get some kind of check-up beforehand..."
Upon hearing the name Javelin, Xu Huan said with some surprise, "Javelin? Her movements seem much faster than I expected... Where is she now? I can't see her anywhere."
"She was just taken by Unicorn for a check-up... I should see her soon." The ship girl's pink eyes swept back and forth over the young man, a hint of suspicion in them.
"When she arrived, she couldn't suppress her smile. If I didn't know she was going to go to sea with you, I would have reason to suspect that you drugged her, Commander."
"...I'm not that thirsty, and I wouldn't resort to such despicable methods." The young man sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation.
"I think you, Perseus, have some bad stereotypes about me."
"There's no way around it, heat is a human instinct. Rather than believing that you, Commander, can control this instinct, it's more like believing that fruit left out for a month won't spoil..."
As Perseus spoke, she gently lifted her slender, straight, and powerful legs, simply changing her posture. Beneath her short skirt, a faint, fleshy glow shone through the depths of her absolute territory.
Xu Huan naturally looked away.
"This is a sign of guilt, Commander... You saw it just now, didn't you? Otherwise, you wouldn't have looked away..." With a soft sigh, Perseus continued, "I was right. It seems the Commander is also a creature easily manipulated by desire..."
"...If that's what you're saying, then I have a question." Xu Huan asked irritably, "According to you, I should have been staring at you just now, right? After all, shifting my gaze would make me look guilty..."
“If you stare at him, he’ll be a pervert, Commander,” Perseus said, still expressionless. “If you peek… he’ll be a lecherous maniac in disguise.”
"So, no matter what, I'm a pervert? But what if I don't react at all? What then?"
"Then I need to consider whether the commander's physiological functions have malfunctioned during this period..."
"Fine... then I'll watch it openly and honestly, that way I can at least get a better reputation."
The young man felt somewhat helpless at the ship girl's words, and then, as if in a fit of pique, he openly and honestly began to admire Perseus's lower body.
It has to be said that the combination of the ship girl's snow-white skin and the white stockings on her legs is simply a match made in heaven, with the subtle fleshiness slowly revealed from it, like smooth tofu.
It makes you want to lick it.
Perseus felt a strange heat rising within him as the young man stared intently at his body, though his expression remained icy, showing no sign of change.
After a long silence, Perseus finally couldn't help but ask:
"Commander...is it pretty?"
Her slender, pale fingers gently traced the length of her long legs, which were encased in white stockings, and a cool, clear voice slowly escaped from the ship girl's pink lips.
Xu Huan nodded simply and directly, saying, "It looks good..."
"But I didn't notice any corresponding physiological reaction from the Commander... which doesn't quite match what he was saying. Commander... are you going to be a bug that lies all the time?"
"What physiological reaction...?"
Xu Huan looked up and noticed that the ship girl's eyes were fixed on his waistband, so he frowned slightly.
This thing... unless it's as hot as dry wood meeting a raging fire, who would react so strongly?
I'm not some little boy who's never even touched a leg...
"Based on my examination data of the Commander, if there were any physiological reactions, the data should be able to detect some evidence with the naked eye, but there isn't any now..."
After Perseus finished speaking with an air of seriousness, she sighed as if she were very disappointed: "Commander... you lied."
"......"
Xu Huan forced himself to think calmly for a moment, but still had no answer.
He felt that whatever he said now would be refuted from different angles, so he simply lay down and let himself be ridiculed.
Xu Huan remained silent.
So Perseus tilted its head too.
To be honest, Perseus is actually quite cute when she's not talking.
Their gazes met several times in mid-air before the young man finally sighed silently and spoke up about the purpose of his visit.
"Actually, I came here today... to ask for a few things."
"Hmm? The Commander looked so awkward just now, like a candy that had been deliberately twisted..." Perseus's lips curled up for a rare moment, before he quickly returned to his expressionless face.
However, given the richness of a ship girl's facial expressions, if she simply curls up the corners of her mouth without any change in her eyes or complexion, it would actually feel more terrifying.
"Speak... Since it's the Commander who has a request, I'll try my best to fulfill it as long as it's not too outrageous."
"Then I won't stand on ceremony..." Finally getting to the point, Xu Huan coughed twice and said, "I remember that as a medical ship girl, Perseus has corresponding healing skills... right?"
"Strictly speaking, I became a medical ship girl because I acquired medical-related skills, Commander... but aside from the terminology used in the description, it's mostly correct," Perseus nodded in reply.
