He is the commander and the admiral.

"Commander of Azur Lane... Thank you very much for this time. Otherwise, I might not be able to come back. As for my body, I don't feel anything special for now."

Akagi turned her head to look at Roger. After learning from Kaga what happened after she lost control and ran wild, she also found that she had almost forgotten everyone at that time. All she had in her mind was the desire to destroy everything in front of her.

"You're lucky. It's incredible that I was able to recover you. Also, I want to ask you about the mind unit. If possible, I also hope to share some information from it. We are currently researching this thing."

"Are you researching it? I see. I will share this information with you. We don't have the ability to fully master this thing at the moment. If it were you, then even if there is a problem, you would be able to stop the loss in time."

Akagi agreed to Roger's request without hesitation, and this result made Roger happy.

"Thank you. In that case, do you need to arrange for you to return to the Sakura Harbor District?"

"No, let's first get those resources from the places where the mind units are still there. If we delay any further, those resources will probably disappear."

Akagi shook her head. Even though she had encountered something like what happened before, she had no fear or thought of retreating, and she didn't want to return to the port in such a miserable state.

"Okay then, I'll go get ready here."

Seeing that Akagi's attitude was very firm, Roger did not say anything else, but went to prepare for the voyage and notified others to get ready as well.

As everyone on the island received the order to prepare to set out again, Dafeng changed her clothes again with a depressed look on her face. Although she also wanted to put on her swimsuit directly, considering that there would be further battles, this outfit was obviously not suitable.

"The next place is a Siren Experimental Base. There should be quite a few Siren fleets there. It would be better to prepare a little."

Before arriving at the destination, Akagi explained the situation of the destination so that Roger could be mentally prepared.

"Ok."

Roger nodded and began to give orders and make arrangements. To be honest, with his current fleet lineup, a Siren experimental base was not enough to make him nervous or afraid.

When the fleet advanced to the Siren Experimental Base, the entire attack process was not too difficult and they won the victory. After entering the base, they began to look for the main target of this time, the mind unit.

"Commander, we found a box with resources stored here. It is very likely that the mind unit we are looking for is inside. Come and take a look."

The search soon yielded results. Roger came to a place that looked like a warehouse. He looked at the various resources here and fixed his eyes on a large rectangular box. The material looked like a container of some special kind. When Roger opened it partially, a ball of blue energy spread out, forcing him to quickly close it again.

"That's right, this is it. When the transport ship was destroyed before, the light that appeared was the same as this."

After Xuefeng saw the ball of light, he was sure that the thing inside was the mind unit.

"If you are right, then take this thing away first. As for this base... just destroy it when the time comes."

There is no way to make use of this base now. If it stays here, it is likely to be occupied by the Sirens again. Therefore, all we can do is destroy it.

"But Commander, can you make use of something like this?"

The way Akagi behaved before really left a deep impression on everyone, and they were even a little worried that they would encounter the same situation.

"Don't worry, there will definitely be a way to solve this problem. At least I won't ask you to accept these things when I have no control over them. But if something really happens, I hope you can persevere."

Roger recalled everything he had seen in his previous hallucination.

"There will be hope only if you hold on. Otherwise, you won't be able to meet me and be together. It will be very painful not to be able to go home together."

"Persist? Commander, you really seem to know something. But if that's the case, we will persevere no matter what."

Listening to Roger's heartfelt words, Enterprise could feel that there seemed to be something they didn't know.

"Ahaha, I don't know about that either. I'm not sure if it's really like that, and it doesn't necessarily happen, so you may not have the chance to experience it. But this is a good thing. After all, if you really hear it, it means the situation is very serious."

"Yeah."

Although they didn't quite understand, everyone nodded to show that they understood. Akagi looked at Roger with a very surprised look at this time. Kaga also saw this reaction. When the two of them walked behind the team, she started to ask.

"Sister, why did you look so surprised just now? Was there something wrong with what the commander said?"

"Well, let's put it this way. You know, when I was in that out-of-control state, I actually saw a strange picture. Although it was like an illusion, those things seemed real. It even made me know some things about the Mind Cube, including what he just said."

Akagi described the same situation as the illusion that Roger had seen before, and after hearing what she said, Kaga also understood the reason for Akagi's surprise.

"That commander...why did he know about this? Did he see it too?"

"No... Rather than saying he saw it, it's better to say... he is most likely one of the two researchers whose identities are unknown, because the tone of his voice was almost the same as that of the one whose name was completely unclear. But that doesn't make sense. Judging from the time, if he was one of them, then he definitely wouldn't be a commander now. Or maybe he got some inside information from somewhere."

Chapter 199 The Same Situation

The confusion in Akagi's heart made him want to find Roger to ask him, so he came to the command room on the fleet's return voyage.

"Is there something wrong? Akagi."

Roger looked a little confused about Akagi's sudden visit, but Akagi didn't say anything and went straight to the point to express his doubts.

"How did you know? Why did you know about the situation when the safety lock of the Mind Cube was about to break through the critical point?"

"Eh? How...how do you know about this?"

Roger was stunned for a moment. When he heard Akagi describe the contents of the hallucinations he had seen, he found it incredible.

"I saw it in the previous loss of control, and what you said was very similar to the person in the hallucination, so are you that person? The one with the unknown female researcher?"

"Huh? You're exaggerating! I just saw those things, too."

Roger felt that his opinion on Akagi was a little too exaggerated. After all, there was no reason to connect him with the things in the hallucinations, right?

"Have you ever thought that the time doesn't match up at all? If I were one of them, do you think I'd still be a commander who graduated from school?"

Roger's answer made Akagi calm down a little. It seemed that the situation was correct. Just relying on this point could overturn the previous speculation.

"Besides, we don't know whether those hallucinations are real or something else, so don't take it too seriously. And you said that the words I said to the person you saw in the hallucination were very similar, so what did you hear in full?"

"Then try your best to hold on, for the sake of the people you love and the people who love you. If you don't hold on, you won't be able to see them and go home with them."

Akagi repeated that sentence, and Roger's expression suddenly froze. Akagi also saw his reaction, and he was more certain that Roger had some connection with the person in the hallucination.

"Could it be that when we see hallucinations, our consciousness is connected to each other? Otherwise, there is no way to explain this matter."

This was the only situation Roger could think of. Otherwise, there was no way to explain the current situation. As for the illusion he saw, Roger regarded it as half true and half false. He did not completely believe it was true, nor did he regard it as completely false.

"I don't know. If this matter was clear, I wouldn't come to ask you, but now it seems that you really know nothing about this kind of thing."

Akagi's heart was filled with regret. He had thought that he could understand the truth of the matter to some extent, but in the end, it seemed that nothing had changed.

But if everything in the illusion is true, then what is the identity of this commander in front of him?

"Is there anything else?"

Roger felt somewhat uncomfortable being stared at by Akagi, so he started asking her so that she would leave and stop staring at him.

"Nothing else, thank you for your answer, I won't bother you anymore."

After realizing that there would be no result, Akagi shook his head and ended the topic.

"It's just a little thing."

After watching Akagi leave, Roger slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time he was troubled by the previous problem again. Now there are more and more problems with the Mind Cube, but it also makes people more and more confused. Being troubled by such a situation is undoubtedly a very uncomfortable thing.

"It's a headache... Anyway, I should be thinking about how to deal with the problem of the mind unit. Why has it become something that requires such a lot of thinking?"

Roger sighed, and then chose to put this troublesome problem behind him for the time being. After all, there was no way to solve this problem now, and there was no point in thinking about it. The mental unit right in front of him was the problem that needed to be taken care of.

After opening the box containing the mind unit, the blue light appeared again. Roger looked at the special structure inside, the mind unit that looked like an energy structure. The overall appearance looked somewhat similar to a chip. When he reached out to touch it, he could also touch it directly.

"But if something like this is really going to be used, how should it be done? Should it be implanted directly?"

Roger checked carefully and didn't find anything special. The best way at the moment was to let the ship girl contact her, but the possible problems that might arise made Roger hesitate.

"Ah... why are there always questions like this?"

Roger shook his head and put the mind unit back. If possible, he really hoped that every time he encountered a problem, he would not have to think about the safety of the ship girls around him. In that way, he would not have to be so distressed and hesitant.

Roger then contacted Soviet Russia and explained to her that he had obtained the mind unit.

"It looks like everything is going very smoothly, Commander. Then we can proceed to the next stage of the experiment. After we have thoroughly analyzed and studied this mental unit, we can start the experiment."

"For things like this, I would like to make sure there are no problems before trying it."

"Of course, I know what you think, Commander. But sometimes we just have to be bold to try. If we are always hesitant, we will never be able to achieve any substantial results. Danger and opportunity coexist."

Soviet Rossiya was aware of Roger's concerns, and also knew that he was hesitant because he cared too much. However, this kind of thing definitely needed someone to try, and it could not be given up just because of such a problem.

"Comrade Commander, I believe that with you, we will successfully solve the problem."

"It would be best if it were this way. If possible, I would definitely hope that everything would have a 100% success rate, so that I wouldn't have to worry about it anymore."

"Sooner or later, that day will come. Before that day comes, let us work together to overcome all the obstacles and reach the future we most desire."

After listening to Soviet Rossiya's answer, Roger felt a little relieved. After continuing to chat for a while, he ended the call.

Chapter 200 It’s a real cat!

After arriving at the Sakura Islands, Roger separated from Akagi and others. After returning to the port area of ​​Sakura Islands, Akagi first went to Akashi for a physical examination.

"I'm in good physical condition in every aspect, there's nothing wrong with meow."

"No? Then are there any other changes besides this?"

What Akagi cares most about is the changes in his body after absorbing the mental unit. If there are no changes at all, then all previous actions would be in vain.

"There are indeed some changes, meow. The upper limit has been raised a bit."

"Then why don't I feel anything?"

Akagi had some doubts. If his current body had been improved due to the mental unit, it was impossible for him to not feel anything at all, right?

"It's normal not to feel anything. It's just that the upper limit has been raised, not that the strength has been increased."

This answer made Akagi realize that it did increase the upper limit, but it did not say that the strength would increase. She was just being stupid.

"So it will take time to strengthen myself."

Akagi was not too worried about this situation, as the Sakura Empire would always have plenty of battles to deal with.

"If Akashi continues to raise the upper limit, do you think it will work?"

"Continue to raise the upper limit? Theoretically, the data we got from Iron Blood shows that it is feasible, but in terms of safety, the requirements for meeting the standards will become greater, and it will not be so easy to accomplish."

"It's OK, as for the rest, it's not a problem."

Akagi got the answer he wanted and had already made a decision in his heart.

"I know, meow."

Akashi didn't say anything else. It was best that Akagi could solve the problem on her own. Besides, it was not her turn to worry about those things.

On the other side, Roger and others temporarily returned to the port area to rest, and Cheshire, who stayed in the port area, immediately ran over to greet them.

"Honey! You're finally back!!"

When Cheshire wanted to give Roger a hug, Taifeng stood in front of her with an expressionless face, as if she would not give her any chance to contact Roger at all. This situation also made Cheshire's face puffed up. When the two of them were arguing like this, Roger looked at them helplessly, then walked past them and walked into the port area with everyone else.

"Ah! Honey! Wait for me!"

"Don't get so close to the commander!"

Seeing this, Cheshire quickly left Dafeng behind and chased after him, and Dafeng also chased after him. Along the way, the two of them squeezed beside Roger and competed with each other, and it was not until they arrived at the office that they calmed down a little.

Here, Roger watched the Flying Field Princess, who looked uncomfortable and depressed, handling the daily affairs of the port area with the Light Cruiser Princess. As for Laffey, he was sleeping comfortably on the sofa.

"Ah! Admiral, you're finally back! Why on earth would something like this happen to me?"

When Ji Feichang saw Roger, she immediately complained that she had to take over the daily affairs of the port area. She felt that it was too hard to handle the headaches in the office. As for Laffite and Cheshire... Ji Feichang didn't want to say anything. The former was basically sleeping, and the latter's mind was full of Roger. How could she help deal with it...

At least if Roger was not with them, Flying Field Ji felt that they would not be able to provide her with any help at all.

Seeing Lafite waking up on the sofa when Roger came back, Flying Field Ji was speechless.

However, Qingxun Qiji was better at dealing with these things and seemed to be able to handle them with ease.

"After all, there are too many things going on right now, and there are always places that need people, and it's impossible for the port area to completely leave no people to ensure safety. I'm sorry."

Listening to Feichang Ji's complaints, Roger apologized and comforted her, which made Feichang Ji's mood improve a lot and she stopped complaining.

"Leave the rest to me, just go out and relax and have some fun."

After getting Roger's permission, Flying Field Ji happily left the office and went to play with Xiao Beifang.

Roger then sat in his chair and watched Light Cruiser Qiji put the sorted documents aside, and expressed his gratitude for her work.

"Thank you for your help, Light Patrol Princess."

"It's just a small problem. If there's nothing else, then Admiral, I'll go and rest first."

"Of course no problem."

Roger nodded and watched Light Cruiser Qiji leave, then began to deal with the problem of the mind unit. From the current situation, the Northern Alliance, which had not yet come into contact with these, would not have any solution. However, after contacting Akagi, he thought of someone who could help him.
