Azur Lane: Full-Time Commander

Essex put one hand on his hip, not thinking there was anything wrong with it.

"Washington, you don't know this, but I'm the number one Essex-class aircraft carrier after all. But before we entered the port, Dreadnought and the others ignored me. But at the banquet last night, they took the initiative to invite me over for a drink."

Chapter 175 Flag

"You have no idea how uncomfortable I was staying here before."

As she spoke, Essex seemed to have remembered something and glanced at Washington with disdain: "Oh, right, you are not a ship girl from our port area yet. Don't try to get close to me in the future. I'm afraid other ship girls will misunderstand!"

Washington: "...6"

Fine, fine, it’s just entering the port, why are you making it seem like no one can enter!!!

Washington slammed the door and walked out, ready to go find Commander Lin Feng and call him "Commander".

But after walking a few steps, Washington suddenly stopped. Based on what she had seen and heard in the port area in the past few days, she heard this statement.

That is: if you want to be a marriage ship, then when you first join the port is when you have the best chance.

If she becomes the wedding ship, wouldn't she be able to legitimately surpass Essex?

So the question is, who should I ask for advice on how to become a marriage partner?

After thinking for a moment, Washington turned around and walked towards the Iron Blood accommodation area. She wanted to find Prince Eugen. With this spiritual mentor from the port area, it should not be a problem to become a wedding ship.

Judging from the ship girls she had come into contact with these days, they all admired Prince Eugen very much.

After Washington left, Essex quietly poked his head out, and after confirming that Washington seemed to be walking towards Prince Eugen's room, he retreated.

Essex picked up the communicator and sent a message to Yorktown.

Essex: "Mr. Yorktown, it looks like Washington has gone to see Prince Eugen."

Yorktown: "Well done, Essex! You'll be rewarded when Washington arrives at the port!"

Essex: "Hey, it's fine as long as I can help, but why did Senior York City do this?"

From Essex's perspective, wasn't Washington's arrival inevitable? Why rush it?

Yorktown: "In the port area, there are not only open and covert struggles between factions, but also wedding ships. It is always a good thing for us White Eagle to have more wedding ships."

Essex: “I see!”

I'm not sure what the so-called conflicts in the port area are, but the only thing that should be done is to increase the number of wedding ships, right?

After thinking for a moment, Essex went out and followed Washington to find Prince Eugene.

On the other side, Lin Feng came to Donghuang Garden. His girls had basically moved out of the dormitory building and came to living areas in various camp styles. Those like Essex and Washington had not yet been arranged.

Walking around the gate of the mansion and looking at the row of side rooms in front of him, Lin Feng fell into silence.

Which room does Jianwu live in?

The garden courtyard of Donghuang is divided into two parts. One side maintains the style of ancient gardens. The exterior looks like the same buildings of the old times, but the interior still has modern facilities such as water and electricity. The other side is similar to a villa, slightly more modern, and the ship girl can choose the room according to her own preferences.

After thinking about it, Lin Feng took out his communicator and sent a message to Jianwu.

A moment later, a figure ran out from the yard and threw himself into his arms.

Jianwu greedily took a deep breath of the commander's scent before raising his head. "Commander, what do you want to talk to me about today?"

Holding Jianwu's waist, Lin Feng smiled and said, "I'm already here, why don't you invite me to your room?"

Hearing this, Jianwu blushed and pulled Lin Feng into a side room.

"Commander, please take a seat. I'll make you some tea."

As he was about to turn around, Jianwu was grabbed by Lin Feng and held back in his arms.

"Don't worry," Lin Feng buried his head in Jianwu's neck, and a fragrance lingered at the tip of his nose: "I came here to ask you to help design a flag for the port area. The port area will be visiting the royal family in a few days."

"Flag? That's no problem!"

Jianwu grinned. Art design is her professional field. If she is given one night, she can come up with several drafts.

Thinking of this, Jianwu suddenly felt that his commander's claws were becoming restless.

"Hmm~"

Jianwu relaxed his body and slightly spread his legs. It seemed that the design work would have to start later.

..............................................

Everything is normal in the port area, but White Eagle and Royal are a little uneasy.

There was no other reason. The Siren base near White Eagle and Royal began to operate at full capacity, with no intention of being secretive at all, allowing the ship girls of White Eagle and Royal to go and investigate.

They watched as one Siren fleet after another entered the Siren base, and when they came out, they had all changed drastically.

Not only were many laser weapons installed on the ship's hull, and external armor mounted, but a circle of fluorescent blue honeycomb-shaped protective force field also appeared on the battleship, making it look much stronger than before.

It would be fine if this was just an isolated case, but from what they observed, all Siren warships, regardless of their type, underwent a collective upgrade.

From the previous little Karami, he suddenly became the big boss, which scared the White Eagle and Royal ship girls a lot.

But the most frightening thing is not just that. After completing the transformation and upgrading, these warships were moved by the Siren using unknown methods, and they could not observe them at all.

In particular, several modified Siren fleets appeared near the royal waters, but disappeared not long after.

A powerful enemy is certainly scary, but the fact that you can always see it disappear quietly is even more terrifying. You never know when it will jump out and deal you a fatal blow!

Inside the Royal Palace

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth frowned as she looked at the report in front of her.

"What did Commander Lin Feng say about the port? The Siren is behaving so abnormally, isn't there any news from there?"

After all, it is a well-known fact that Commander Lin Feng has an affair with Siren, but Shabai just thinks that Lin Feng has a good relationship with one of the high-level humanoids, and never thought that Siren is actually a new force under Lin Feng.

Belfast bowed slightly. "Your Majesty, the reply stated that this phenomenon has been observed all over the world, not just near the White Eagle and Royal areas. They didn't mention why the Sirens acted this way. I guess Commander Lin Feng doesn't know either."

"This is troublesome."

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth threw the report on the table and stood up. "No matter what, we must be prepared for a major war. Also, contact Commander Lin Feng's port and ask if the Royal Navy can form a joint fleet with the port to fight the enemy together!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Also, help me connect to White Eagle Saratoga. I want to discuss this matter with White Eagle."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

PS: Okay, okay, I don’t know what’s wrong with this recommendation, the quantity is cut in half again.

Chapter 176 Three strategies: upper, middle and lower

At this time, Bai Ying was also a little confused. What was going on? Commander Lin Feng was going to start a world war to conquer them?

Since the port area did not make any visit plans for the White Eagle, these modified warships did not take any action and just quietly stopped near the White Eagle.

"If they're all of this standard, it looks like we can't win."

Shangri-La gritted her teeth as she watched the footage transmitted back through the carrier-based aircraft's shared vision. That single protective force field alone was enough to give her a headache, but the problem was that every ship on the opposing side had one...

Next to the Shangri-La, St. Louis, who was in charge of this escort mission, shook his head and said, "Let's wait for Saratoga to contact Commander Lin Feng. These warships don't seem to have any intention of attacking the White Eagle at the moment, but if we take the initiative to attack, it will be hard to say."

Shangri-La nodded and said, "Let's go back to Saratoga."

About an hour later

Saratoga looked at the news in front of her and felt overwhelmed.

They were not completely unaware of the news that Sakura Empire had built a super battleship Python some time ago. Now it seems that the Siren has converted all the existing mass-produced battleships into "Pythons", but they are not equipped with that kind of intercontinental weapons.

After thinking for a moment, Saratoga picked up the communicator and called Washington directly.

“Beep…beep…beep~”

"Hello? Saratoga?"

Washington, who was sitting on the sofa and talking with Prince Eugen, was a little confused. Why would Saratoga call her at this time?

Could it be that he knew that she was planning to switch from White Eagle to the port area?

That's not right, Saratoga is so powerful? She just arrived here not long ago and only told Prince Eugen about it.

Saratoga didn't hesitate and directly told Washington about the situation near the White Eagle mainland. Then he asked, "Washington, you are now in Commander Lin Feng's port area. Do you have any inside information?"

"Huh?"

Washington was shocked. Commander Lin Feng was going to unify the world by force? She had never heard of such a plan. Of course, it could also be because she hadn't yet joined the port area and had no access to core information.

After thinking for a moment, Washington stopped asking Prince Eugen and said, "I haven't received any news. Besides, such news usually wouldn't reach me, right?"

"Ah~"

Saratoga sighed heavily. "I understand. I'm sure the same thing will happen in Essex. Let's leave it that way for now."

After hanging up the phone, Washington gave Prince Eugen an inquiring look.

Her intuition told her that it was most likely Commander Lin Feng who did it.

"Hmm~"

Noticing Washington's gaze, Prince Eugen took a sip of his tea and smiled broadly, "This is indeed the work of our commander, but the target wasn't the White Eagle, but the Royal Family."

Hearing this, Washington gasped: "Commander Lin Feng is going to declare war on the Royal Family???"

"No, it's a visit. The commander felt that bringing a fleet of shipgirls was too traditional and not cool enough, so he wondered if it would be better to bring the Siren Fleet. Oh, it was just a small act of willfulness regarding strength."

Washington gave a thumbs up and said, "Okay, only Commander Lin Feng can build the visiting fleet into a fleet that can destroy a country."

But...he is worthy of being Commander Lin Feng.

Thinking of this, Washington said with a slightly flattering expression, "Then let's continue with the previous topic. Is there any way for me to eat meat right after joining the port area?"

Prince Eugen took out a folding fan from somewhere, covered the lower half of his face, pretended to be a hermit, and then took out a bag of unknown powder.

"I have three options, which one would you choose?"

"Can you elaborate?"

"That's the worst option," Prince Eugen said, pushing the powder toward Washington. "Using the excuse of joining the port district, I can treat the commander to a meal and add this stuff to it. However, you'll likely be punished by the commander afterwards. Think about what happened with Herophenton a while ago."

Hearing this, Washington couldn't help but imagine himself being tied to the bed and unable to move, with one ship girl after another getting up from Commander Lin Feng. He couldn't help but shudder.

This punishment is so cruel!

Seeing Washington's expression, Prince Eugen smiled and said, "The middle strategy is to find Scylla or Sheffield and have them take you to the commander's room. However, Scylla isn't very reliable right now, so I recommend finding Sheffield."

"Emm..." Washington asked doubtfully, "I remember you all seemed to have the key to the commander's room."

"But you didn't."

"......you're right."

"The best option is, of course, for me to do it myself, but the price is hefty." Prince Eugen looked at Washington with a smile, "Don't refuse me if I need your help in the future!"

Washington nodded hurriedly: "No problem!"

"The commander seems to have gone to the Donghuang living area this afternoon. I'll take you there in the evening."

Washington has no objection to this, as professional matters should be left to professionals.

With the spiritual mentor of the port district taking action personally, wouldn’t it be easy for the little commander to capture the enemy?

It is said that this sister achieved the feat of forming a deep friendship between a ship girl outside the port area and the commander when the new base was established. Another ship girl of the same level as her is called Glory.

At this moment, a weak voice came from outside: "Can you take me with you?"

Washington turned around and saw Essex with a shy expression. Judging from his appearance, he must have been listening here for a while.

Prince Eugen narrowed his eyes. Has Essex automatically unlocked the skill of eavesdropping?

.......................................

Royal Accommodation

Shi frowned, looking at the cup of Assam milk tea in front of him, which was said to be specially blended by Yuanchou himself.

Although, this bright red color doesn’t look like Assam milk tea at all, right?

"What's wrong? Not to your taste?"

At this time, Yuanchou brought out another cup of identical milk tea from the kitchen and sat opposite Shi.
