The slightly weird commander's ship girl tour

"Cough cough." Huang Chen coughed twice, wanting to skip this topic. Why didn't he come up in the morning?

Does this need any explanation?

He just waved his hand and said, "I understand. I'll just wait for her here."

But Bumblebee showed no intention of leaving and continued to invite, "Since Enterprise hasn't come up yet, why don't you come over and play for a while, Commander?"

"No!" Huang Chen waved his hands to refuse, and even stood in front of the operating table, pretending to look at the vast ocean outside.

I'm a serious person.

Unexpectedly, Bumblebee's laughter was heard again. "Commander, are you really not going?"

"No!" Huang Chen waved his hand impatiently.

But Bumblebee laughed even more recklessly, "Then why is the commander standing there?"

"Where?" Huang Chen was stunned and withdrew his gaze from the sea. Only then did he realize that the place where he was standing now had a unique view.

Looking down, you can have a panoramic view of the open-air swimming pool not far away, and all the beautiful scenery is right before your eyes!

Huang Chen's eyes suddenly bulged, and he slowly turned his stiff neck to look at Bumblebee. "I'm going to say I didn't see anything, do you believe me?"

Bumblebee didn't say anything, but just gave a 'you know smile', and immediately everything was said without words.

Huang Chen forced a smile, then turned into anger and said, "You're dead!"

However, Bumblebee sensed the danger as soon as his expression changed, and escaped, leaving behind only a burst of joyful laughter.

There are so many ship girls in the port area, and quite a few of them are shrimps, but Bumblebee is the best among them.

He is proficient in the secret of the word "skin", and has reached the third step in the art of "skin". At the same time, he has maxed out his attribute points in specializing in observing the commander's words and expressions.

Always dancing on the edge of a knife, but never revealing his true colors.

Huang Chen pretended to chase for a few steps and then retreated.

After all, she was his own shipgirl. His so-called anger was just a joke. How could he really be angry? After Bumblebee left the room, Huang Chen wandered around the cockpit alone, feeling rather bored.

After a few minutes, Enterprise's figure appeared on the top deck. Huang Chen greeted her through the glass, but the latter did not respond. This reminded him that the glass in the cab was one-way.

After another minute or two, I finally heard the sound of Enterprise's footsteps coming from the corridor outside.

Before the girl even came in, she could already hear her clear voice, "Commander, I just happened to need you for something."

Huang Chen nodded slightly embarrassedly, "I just heard about it from Bumblebee."

Enterprise didn't dwell on why the commander didn't get up that morning, and went straight to the point. "It's nothing serious, just a few tasks I need your review."

"First, there's the issue of the route," Enterprise explained. He then found a document on the console and handed it to Huang Chen. "This is the currently planned route. Today is May 5th. We'll arrive at Area J in about five days, on June 30rd. The rest of the plan is as shown on the table."

Huang Chen nodded, took it and looked at it. It was a timetable with certain plans and time arrangements for various matters along the way.

Of course, it cannot be said to be precise to a certain day, but it is a time range within five days. After all, it is not certain how long it will take to meet Jean Bart, Elizabeth and Nagato.

Seeing that the commander looked at the schedule and did not ask any questions, Enterprise took out another document. Compared with the previous schedule, it was much thicker and could almost be considered a thick book.

Huang Chen took it with a slight surprise, grinning, and flipped through it casually, "What is this?"

"This is the sisters' wish list, and the last page is the summary statistics." The company explained.

Huang Chen was still a little confused and muttered to himself, "Will... Oh, so this is it!"

When I was going up the stairs earlier, I was thinking about the issue of the construction of some functional rooms on the Windward. I had asked for everyone's opinions before, and now I have collected everyone's opinions.

"Thank you for your hard work. Let me take a look!" Huang Chen said as he casually flipped through the documents in his hand. It was such a thick pile of documents that he didn't even have the mind to take a closer look. It must be very difficult for the company to sort it out.

"How about adding another secretary ship?" he suddenly said.

"It's up to you, Commander," Enterprise said casually.

"Then let's go with Amagi... Wait, I remember Nagato was also a secretary ship?" Huang Chen recalled, hesitated for a moment, and shook his head. "It doesn't matter, let's go with Amagi. We'll talk about it after Nagato comes back. Let me see what everyone wants..."

He flipped directly to the last page of the document, which contained a form that the company had already compiled. His brows suddenly knitted together. "The amusement park is first. Is that the children's vote? I understand."

"As for the rest, expanding the reading room and sauna room, and adding a large bathroom, I can understand all of this, but..." He looked at the company in surprise.

"What's the point of this Commander's Memorial? I'm still alive!"

"This... was Taiho's wish," Enterprise explained. "She said she needed a special room to store things related to the Commander. It was originally called the Commander Experience Room..."

"Rejected! Don't even think about it. And then...what about the zoo and aquarium? Does the Windward need these functions?"

"That's... Bai Xue and Pu Bo's suggestion to raise some small animals and fish. I actually think it's a good idea." Enterprise said.

"Okay..." Huang Chen hesitated and continued to ask, "What about this? The psychological counseling room..."

"Bremerton's wishes. After all, she's good at this..."

"Okay, I understand. But why do we need a bar? Don't we already have one?"

"Kaga BB thinks that bar only serves Western liquor and wants one with a more Sakura-style feel."

"Well, let's put this on hold for now. Never mind, let's put it in the plan. What about this, the shop? Akashi's wish?"

"……Correct."

"The shop is on hold. Whose wish is this metalworking room?"

"That's also Akashi. Not only these two, she also has a ship equipment research lab, a resource oil processing lab, and a mind cube research lab."

Huang Chen raised his eyebrows. "Good boy, I understand. This guy has a complete industrial chain! From processing to production to sales, she's really good at it. Hold off! Hold off everything!"

He shook his head and continued reading, but suddenly he looked up as if he had thought of something, "Enterprise, Mind Cube Laboratory..."

Enterprise smiled faintly and pulled out another document from the side. "This was originally the next topic. Akashi submitted many resources to Minato this time, including the Mind Cube."

Chapter 222 Is This Really Diamond? Not Some Other Currency!

The mind cube, also known as the dementia cube.

It can be said to be one of the most important supplies in the Azure Lane. At the same time, in this dreamy world of ship girls, the Mind Cube is also an extremely precious existence.

It is only possible to obtain it from the supplies dropped by the Siren Fleet after defeating it. The probability of obtaining it is about 10%, which means that you can only get a Rubik's Cube after defeating the Siren Fleet's attacks ten times.

Of course, it also depends on the number of Siren fleets. If you encounter a large-scale attack by the Siren fleet, with dozens or even hundreds of Siren ships attacking at a time, it is not impossible to obtain multiple Rubik's Cubes in one go.

However, such a situation is beyond the scope of what a single port area can handle, and usually requires a large combined fleet to handle it. Even if the number of Rubik's Cubes seems to have increased, there are still too many people and too little resources.

All in all, for ordinary commanders, the Rubik's Cube is an extremely precious material. Generally, there will be one or two small-scale battles a week in the port area guarding ordinary sea areas.

If you are lucky, you can save up a Rubik's Cube in a month. It only takes one Rubik's Cube to build this world at a time, and you can get an average of ten Rubik's Cubes a year.

Huang Chen's port area once had many Rubik's Cubes. Of course, compared with some big guys, it was just a piece of cake, but overall, the number was maintained at more than 600 Rubik's Cubes. In this world, he was considered a big guy anyway.

After all, at the rate of ten coins a year in the general port area, six hundred coins are enough for them to work from graduation to retirement.

But so many Rubik's Cubes disappeared with the collapse of the port area. He naturally knew about these things. Enterprise and other ship girls had already told him about them.

Although the company once said that if Akashi was found, the small profiteer might know the whereabouts of the equipment, supplies, etc. in the port area.

But Huang Chen never had any expectations. After all, so much time had passed and the situation was still so chaotic. At the beginning, the ship girls consumed a lot of resources looking for the commander. Maybe all the supplies had been used up long ago.

But unexpectedly, there was a pleasant surprise after Akashi came back.

"This is a specific list." The company handed a document to Huang Chen.

It detailed the supplies and equipment that Akashi had handed over to the port. Huang Chen couldn't help but exclaim in amazement as he read it. "So many?"

"It's indeed a lot." Enterprise said with some surprise.

Akashi has a unique ability that allows him to carry large quantities of supplies and petroleum products related to ship girls' equipment.

The table was filled with various reserves. The first was materials that could be used for construction. We had seen it before at the K District gathering. What Akashi handed over were the most critical metals that made up the materials, namely the hulls of Old World warships salvaged from the deep sea or obtained by defeating the Sirens.

I still remember meeting a boss who held a piece of rusty metal and insisted that it was the deck of the old-world Enterprise.

The number is not large, probably around 100,000 units.

The second is the Mind Cube, with a total of 222 pieces. It is said that there were 654 pieces at the beginning, but they were consumed for various reasons during the subsequent journey.

Huang Chen's opinion was sold out by Mingshi.

Then there is the equipment. When playing games in the past, there were never enough good equipment, and every time we went on an attack, the equipment was always moved around on the various ship girls.

Naturally, the things left in the warehouse are not good things, but... this is not a good thing only for Huang Chen.

Many surplus mass-produced equipment, such as MK6, Jin Ogen, Jin Gaoping, Jin Yuanpan, Tianshan Kai, Hellcat, etc., were placed in the warehouse after being used in the early stage and were reluctant to be dismantled.

There were so many piled up that even after the collapse of the port area, there were still quite a few left after Akashi's decades of selling.

For most commanders and ship girls in this world, some of Huang Chen’s outdated equipment is too expensive.

Then there are colored boxes and gold boxes and 'gold' boxes, and no other variety.

The number is neither too much nor too little, and it is a number that commanders in this world will find difficult to obtain until retirement. The gold box is okay, but the colored box... for most commanders in this world, this is just a legend.

Boxes, like ship girls, also come from the Rubik's Cube. The commander resonates with the Rubik's Cube and starts construction with the support of supplies. If the construction is successful, the ship girl will be obtained, and if the construction fails, the box will be obtained.

Commanders with average luck will most likely fail in construction and will most likely get a white box. Blue boxes are not uncommon, and purple ones are also relatively common.

For a normal commander, after accumulating ten Rubik's Cubes in a year and starting the ten-draw, the greatest probability is to obtain one purple box, three blue boxes, and six white boxes.

As for the gold box, it requires a bit of luck in misfortune.

However, commanders with good luck usually succeed in building it directly without having to deal with the next stage of boxes.

Then there are equipment modification accessories, ship girl modification blueprints and other consumables, and many more.

In addition to the above supplies, there are some strange things, such as the ingredients mentioned earlier, royal cuisine, and Manchu-Han banquet.

Some invitations, commemorative medals, Valentine's Day gifts and other things that were previously piled up in the warehouse with unknown uses.

Huang Chen took a quick and cursory look at it and put it aside. He felt that many of the things on it looked familiar but he didn't know what they were used for. Of course, he didn't need to know now. He just needed to know that there were so many things in the port area.

"Then comes the most critical one, the last item." Seeing that Huang Chen didn't seem to notice, Qiye couldn't help but remind him.

"The last item?" Huang Chen was a little surprised. Isn't the last item just those random things?

I picked up the document again and turned to the last page and the last line, but I was almost shocked. There was a long string of numbers in the last row, and I couldn't even tell how long it was at first glance. I thought it was a separator column.

Now that the company has reminded us, we know that these are the diamonds and currency that Akashi handed over to the port area!

He swallowed subconsciously and stretched out his hand to count the digits of the currency one by one with trembling hands. "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, almost to nine..."

"Nine digits?" Huang Chen was shocked. "Are these really diamonds? Not some other currency!"

Enterprise also said in an incredulous tone, "They are indeed diamonds. I didn't believe it at first, until I saw her take out so many diamonds..."

"Took it out? What did she take out? Can she take out the diamond?"

"Yes." Enterprise nodded, his tone becoming more serious. "Take out the diamonds. She carries them with her at all times."

Chapter 223 It’s going to explode

"Carry it with you? Are you serious?" Huang Chen's eyes widened. Although diamonds are also a kind of currency, their specific status is like gold in the previous life. It is an expensive resource.

Transactions between commanders are mostly conducted using supplies and local currency. For example, equipment or mind cubes can be purchased with supplies.

Even the hull metal of an old world warship salvaged from the sea is often equivalent to supplies in the commander's world, and can be purchased using processed standard supplies produced by the ship girl headquarters.

Diamonds are rarely used. Even for most people, diamonds are just a unit. They only know how many diamonds they have in their accounts in the port area.

Then when it is used, it can be exchanged into supplies or local currency.

Even though so many ship girls had returned before, it was all the same. Huang Chen only knew that there were a lot of diamonds in his port account, but he had never actually seen the diamonds in this world.

At the same time, although both are physical currencies, the use of diamonds is far less extensive than that of materials, and there are no tokens for diamonds, while there are for materials.

After all, the volume of supplies is very large, and one unit of supplies is about one cubic decimeter in size.

Transactions between commanders often start with a few hundred supplies. There are not so many monster commanders in this world. Does that mean everyone carries hundreds of kilograms of metal polymers to buy things?

Or maybe we can learn from Zimbabwe and go shopping with a cart carrying a mountain of supplies?

Of course not, the KanColle headquarters has issued tokens, which can also be called the commander's currency, which can be exchanged for standard supplies at any KanColle headquarters.

So you can carry supplies with you.

Diamonds do not have this treatment, which means that Akashi really carries diamonds worth nearly nine figures with him.

Thinking of this, Huang Chen could no longer sit still and stood up suddenly. "Where is that pile of things? I want to go and take a look."

Enterprise seemed to have anticipated the development of the situation and said directly, "It was put back on Akashi again. After all... Commander, come with me."
