Azur Lane: I Crossed the Graduation Port Area

Chapter 1650: I had no choice in the experimental organization, but now I just want to be a good person

Clemenceau, the third Richelieu-class battleship.

As the supreme leader of the Iris Camp Inquisition, Lin Lan was deeply impressed by this tall, pink-haired lady who was very scheming and could do anything with ease.

Unlike her second sister Jeanbart, who is unruly and not good at communicating with others.

As early as the period when the Iris camp was divided into Free Iris and Vichy Church, Clemenceau had been hiding behind the scenes, providing various perfect combat plans for Jean Bart, the nominal flagship of the Vichy Church.

In the original game plot of the Crisis of the Kingdom of God on Land, it was thanks to Clemenceau's calculations against Marco Polo that he and the ship girls were able to escape danger and launch a defensive counterattack in the first place.

The failure of the Marco Polo Project, the attempt to obtain the Gate Network to gather fleets from various factions, and the preparation of the lethal weapon "Holy Lance" to attack the Herophant Management Machine controlled by the Omen...

It can be said that in Lin Lan’s mind, Clemenceau can definitely be ranked among the top three most strategic ship girls in the entire port area.

He also asked Marco Polo in the city-state world whether he held a grudge against this good friend who "backstabbed" him.

But Marco Polo's answer, with a bright smile on his face, was something he had never expected:
"Clemenceau had already discovered my twisted mind. What that guy did was not what you call 'backstabbing'. Instead, he waited for the right moment to rescue me together with you!
"Don't be fooled by her mysterious look. Commander, I tell you, Clemenceau is actually very easy to get along with. She is much more popular than me. Damn it..."

Although after a lot of complaints, Marco Polo also proudly stated that he was the one who had an in-depth communication with Clemenceau before him.

But Lin Lan also heard that in Marco Polo's eyes, Clemenceau was a like-minded friend from beginning to end, and Marco Polo even told Clemenceau about his idea of ​​summoning him.

But why didn't Clemenceau understand the letter left by Marco Polo and agree to send a group of Iris ship girls to search for Marco Polo?

After pondering for a while, Lin Lan decided to wait until he met Clemenceau and ask the battleship lady in person about her well-being.

Anyway, if everything goes well, he will be able to return to the Iris temporary port area soon.

In this way, time passed quickly as he and the girls chatted in the navigation room.

When it was around eleven o'clock in the morning, they landed smoothly on the platform of Antiks's experimental agency base in the ocean, which was also their first stop after returning from the city-state world.

Since he came back in the middle of the night that day and was anxious to reunite with the Sardinian ship girls, Lin Lan did not pay much attention to this stronghold.

When he brought the girls from the floating battleship to the open-air platform, he discovered that the scale of this stronghold was not small.

And contrary to his imagination of how deserted it would be, the platform of the stronghold was extremely lively.

"Old Deng, welcome to the experimental agency SN-04 base."

Dozens of executors of various models are moving supplies and reinforcing and expanding the base.

Looking at the intruder who took the initiative to come forward and greeted him with a cold face, Lin Lan couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

How could I meet such a filial daughter?

"Lao Deng? Hahahahaha!"

Walkerland, who was originally a little wary, was stunned when he heard the intruder calling Lin Lan, and then he covered his stomach and laughed uncontrollably.

Buqu even covered his mouth with his hands, his face flushed, as if he was trying hard not to laugh.

Only the Empire looked at him first, then at the intruder, tilted his head in confusion and asked:
"The commander isn't old, so why do you call him Lao Deng?"

"Answer, the word 'Lao Deng' can better reflect the difference between this machine and other executors, and can leave a deeper impression on this machine." The intruder's answer made the Empire nod thoughtfully, and even Lin Lan widened his eyes.

Intruder, you can call me "Lao Deng" if you want, but don't teach my ship girl bad habits!
Fortunately, his worries were unnecessary, as the well-behaved and lovely Empire did not really call him that.

Instead, Walkerland, who was rolling on the ground laughing, deliberately called him "Old Deng".

For such a bold ship girl, he naturally has to "strike a heavy punch".

After chasing and playing with Walkerlan on this spacious platform for a while, he learned from the invader that a group of executors in the stronghold had already headed for the temporary port area in Sardinia.

They stayed here to carry out the reinforcement and expansion work arranged by the observers, and to cover this stronghold with the mirror sea after everyone left tomorrow.

I don’t know if it’s because Ling had already transferred the explorers, breaker, and tracker who activated their minds in Natlan away from Saint Lothal.

Lin Lan looked around and found that the executors on the platform of this stronghold and the surrounding sea were the four executor girl bodies that he had activated just yesterday.

"No need to look. In order to ensure that there are no conflicts in offline data, the mass-produced machines of Explorer, Breaker and Tracker in various regions have been arranged by the host to return to the port area."

The observer saw what he was thinking and explained the reason to him with a smile at the right time.

So after Lin Lan chatted with the four executor daughters for a while, he crossed the platform accompanied by several girls and entered the stronghold that looked like a floating island fortress.

And in the corridor that was as eerie as ever, Akashi approached the leading observer and slipped a small note into the observer's hand with his cute sleeve.

The observer unfolded the note calmly, and the content on it was:
"Meow, Miss Observer, can you share the Gate Network technology with me? I will give you the corresponding compensation as before."

The little Loli in the experimental institute turned her head and met Akashi's expectant gaze.

"Hehe~ I don't really care, but I'm afraid the commander is not willing to hand over this technology to you~"

"Meow?"

Before Akashi could react, he felt the back of his neck tighten, and his whole body was lifted off the ground with both feet.

Grabbing the back of Akashi's white dress, Lin Lan looked at the green-haired little profiteer in his hand with a sneer on his face:
"Good boy, Akashi. I was wondering why you were so active today. Are you thinking about the network technology of the door?"

"I don't, no meow!"

Looking at the small profiteer from the port area who was struggling in his hands, his face pale and trying to quibble, Lin Lan said nothing, but just stretched out his other hand to the observer.

As Akashi looked desperate, the observer handed him the note with a sly grin.

"Why! We clearly agreed to cooperate for mutual benefit and defeat the Commander's red-pointed cat together, why did you betray me?!"

This scene made Akashi ask the observer an incomprehensible question, but the observer spread his hands and replied to the profiteer with a smile:

"We had no choice in the past, but now that the Inquisitor Project is over, I just want to be a good person."

After hearing the extremely lengthy conversation between Akashi and the Observer, Walkerlan, Indomitable and Empire all widened their eyes and looked at Akashi in Lin Lan's hand in disbelief.

Walkerlan took several steps back and asked Akashi blankly:
"Wow?! Akashi, you you you... you were a ghost in Minato?!"

Even the naive ones of the three ship girls could see that Akashi had once had an unspeakable deal with the Siren!
