The slightly weird commander's ship girl tour

Musashi came over with a fruit basket, paused, glanced at New Jersey, and continued, "Anyway, just wake up. This is a little gift from the academy."

New Jersey just smiled lightly and didn't say anything.

"Thank you, Mr. Musashi." Huang Chen took the fruit basket and opened it directly. He shared it with everyone and took an apple for himself. "By the way, I skipped a day of class now. Will that mean I won't be able to get my diploma?"

"It doesn't matter. In fact, as long as Commander Huang Chen wants to, all he needs to do is attend the awarding ceremony of the training class." Musashi chuckled.

Huang Chen waved his hand, "That's too much. Even using the backdoor is not acceptable."

"This isn't considered backdoor dealings." Musashi shook his head. "Even if the training score is zero, it won't affect the commissioning ceremony. This is one of the rules for commander training."

Huang Chen shook his head. Having said that, if any other commander dared to skip all classes and get a zero in the training assessment, he believed that the KanColle headquarters would never recognize the qualifications of this commander.

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore." Musashi chatted for a few more minutes and was about to leave.

Huang Chen was a little surprised. "Are you in such a hurry? You don't have classes this afternoon, right?"

"It's about the new students enrolling," Musashi said softly. "A high percentage of the new students this time have built battleships. This puts a lot of pressure on the battleship department."

"Battlefield Department..." Huang Chen subconsciously looked at New Jersey. After all, the girl was the deputy director of the Battlefield Department. Although she had submitted her resignation, at least she was still sitting in that position and always needed to work.

"Ah, no need. New Jersey also needs a rest, right?" Musashi immediately understood what Huang Chen meant and shook his head to refuse.

Huang Chen was stunned for a moment, then realized that he was unconscious last night. How could New Jersey, as his ship girl, have a good rest?

Thinking of this, he moved to the side and made room for himself on the bed. "You should take a rest too."

"It's okay. I'm the strongest 'Black Dragon' of White Eagle." New Jersey smiled and shook his head, his bright expression was no different from before.

However, Huang Chen didn't care. He reached out and hugged the girl in his arms. The two of them lay on the hospital bed.

"Then rest with me for a while, okay?"

Chapter 694: Is this what rest means?

New Jersey was stunned for a moment, but did not resist and leaned obediently in Huang Chen's arms.

"You guys, can't you just be a little more careful?" Musashi shook his head helplessly.

Royal Fortune also waved his fist indignantly, "That's right, pay a little attention!"

Huang Chen smiled nonchalantly, then suddenly came to his senses and looked at the pirate lady, "Why don't you come and block the way?"

"Huh?" Royal Fortune was stunned, then pretended to be nonchalant and stared at the tangerine in his hand. "What, what's blocking the middle? Why should I be blocking the middle?"

Musashi was about to leave, but after hearing this, he stood aside and watched with interest.

"Didn't you swear before that you would conduct an audit?" Huang Chen said with a teasing smile.

"I..." Royal Fortune opened his mouth slightly, looking quite embarrassed.

Huang Chen chuckled and felt in a good mood. He lay down on a few thick pillows, leaned back, and chose a more comfortable position.

At this time, New Jersey also peeled a few grapes and gently brought them to his mouth.

Huang Chen ate it in one gulp and was about to say something else, but his eyes accidentally glanced at the fox ears on Musashi's head who was standing aside watching the fun.

Immediately, he felt a subtle sense of déjà vu in his posture.

If New Jersey was also a fox-eared shipgirl...

"Ahem." Huang Chen suddenly lost all interest. He coughed twice and looked at Royal Wealth. "Um, now you know the relationship between New Jersey and me, right?"

"...I know." Royal Fortune paused and nodded gloomily.

Musashi watched from the side as the excitement was almost over. He waved his hand and walked slowly towards the door.

Huang Chen was a little confused, but he continued, "What happened yesterday, um... it's my fault for not explaining it clearly to you at the beginning..."

"It's okay, it's okay. The captain will always be my captain!" Royal Fortune waved his hand and said.

"Captain?" Huang Chen was stunned. What kind of new title was this?

"Well, didn't you ask me to change my name when you went to build it yesterday? I thought about it for a long time. If I were still on the sea, it would be more appropriate to call me captain, right?" Royal Wealth said with a smile.

Huang Chen paused. He actually felt that this title was strange, but it was still much better than the big brother who seemed like a comedian yesterday.

"What I want to say is that you don't have to take yesterday's events too seriously. Whether it's Big Brother or Captain, actually...

"

"What are you talking about? I, Royal Fortune, may be a pirate, but pirates also have to follow rules. If I say I'm the captain, I'm the captain!"

The pirate lady interrupted Huang Chen and said with some dissatisfaction.

Huang Chen was stunned. His original idea was to explain away yesterday's misunderstanding. Of course, it wasn't really a misunderstanding, but it was a coincidence that allowed Huang Chen to take advantage of the girl.

He originally thought that after bringing up the topic, even if the girl wouldn't be particularly angry, at least the so-called sworn brother-sister relationship would no longer be able to be maintained.

However, he did not expect that Royal Fortune would have this attitude, which surprised him greatly.

New Jersey brought over a few more peeled grapes and whispered in his ear, "Royal Fortune didn't get much sleep last night. First, it was because of the Honey incident, and then because of the Plymouth incident. We only got a little rest this morning."

"Huh?" Huang Chen widened his eyes and turned around to look at the pirate lady in disbelief.

If the attitude shown by the girl just now only surprised him, then the words he heard from New Jersey now shocked him.

Huang Chen paused and stared at the girl blankly, not knowing what to say.

Royal Fortune tilted his head, "What's wrong?"

"No, nothing. Royal Wealth didn't get much rest last night. Now that I'm awake, I'll have a good rest." Huang Chen said softly.

Royal Fortune nodded.

Huang Chen nodded slightly, then turned his gaze to Plymouth beside him, "You should take a rest too."

"Okay, the same as Miss New Jersey, okay?" Plymouth chuckled gently, and without waiting for Huang Chen's answer, he got up and squeezed onto the small bed.

Royal Wealth stood there horrified, his face pale with fear, his hands raised tremblingly, "Captain, so this is what you mean by rest?"

Musashi, who had just reached the door, suddenly stopped and glanced curiously towards the bedside.

"No, that's not it." Huang Chen looked at Plymouth and hurriedly stopped him, "Stop, this is not the rest."

Plymouth stopped immediately, "I'm sorry, Commander."

Although the girl was apologizing, her tone did not convey any apology or embarrassment. Instead, she was as elegant as before, and her facial expression was as gentle as ever.

Although it can be interpreted as the girl being gentle and generous, Huang Chen inexplicably thought of a doll, a doll that never gets angry and only smiles.

However, although he felt strange, he didn't care. It was normal for ship girls to have some weird quirks, just like Taihou, Akagi, Gascoigne, Anchorage, etc.

"It's okay." He waved his hand. "I didn't explain it clearly. You guys should go back and rest. Okay, New Jersey can take her back first. I don't need anyone to stay here anymore."

New Jersey hesitated, "Everyone's gone, what if something happens to Honey..."

"How about I help you guys for a while?" Musashi, who was standing at the door, suggested, "You guys go back and rest for a while, and come back in the evening. Actually, Commander Huang Chen is almost ready to be discharged now, right?"

"Uh, you're still here." Huang Chen glanced at Musashi in surprise. He clearly remembered that this girl was about to leave when he was cosplaying as King Zhou. Why was she still standing here?

and……

"Aren't you going to work overtime?"

"I can have my secretary bring everything I need to deal with here." Musashi said softly, "As long as Commander Huang Chen doesn't mind me setting up a table in the ward."

"Of course I don't care." Huang Chen chuckled.

New Jersey nodded, peeled a few more grapes for Huang Chen, and then left with Plymouth and Royal Wealth.

Musashi first went to trouble the nurse to ask her to help notify his secretary, and then returned to the ward.

The director of the battleship department had not started working yet, so Huang Chen took out his notebook and began to recall the moments he experienced during the construction.

In fact, he and Musashi were not very familiar with each other. The girl was willing to come to help more because she wanted to give her good friend New Jersey some rest, which made the atmosphere in the ward a little awkward.

Huang Chen thought for a moment and casually found a topic to break the silence. "After this busy period, things should be easier, right? Those battleship commanders can not only strengthen the battleship system, but also grow into the backbone of the commanders."

However, Musashi shook his head slightly, "Actually, I'd like the ratio to be even smaller, or even zero."

Chapter 695 The reverberation of memory

Huang Chen listened to Musashi's words and was a little slow to react.

Is it because you don't want to work overtime, so you simply want the proportion of battleship commanders to be smaller?

Although they had only known each other for a short time, he knew that Musashi was definitely not the kind of person who only cared about temporary pleasure.

Huang Chen didn’t know what it meant to build a battleship or a main battleship like an aircraft carrier.

Let’s not talk about him for now.

One of the only few friends I know, Chen Hong, got the super rare battleship South Dakota during the first construction.

Therefore, he always believed that battleships were relatively common.

After this period of training and cordial communication with his classmates, he also gained a correct understanding of the rarity of battleships.

Generally speaking, there are about 500 students in a class, and no more than 10% of them can build a battleship.

That is to say, the total number of aircraft carriers, light carriers, battleships and battle cruisers is about fifty.

Among them, only about ten built battleships at most.

If you look closely at the ratio, it's only 2%, which is almost the same as the success rate of construction.

Some commanders will never be able to build a battleship in their entire lives.

Its rarity can be seen from this.

The power of battleships is obvious to all, and their development speed is the fastest among all types of commanders.

Ordinary new commanders may think that aircraft carriers that can launch carrier-based aircraft, conduct large-scale reconnaissance and beyond-visual-range strikes are more powerful and more powerful.

But powerful ship girls often require powerful ship equipment. Compared with aircraft carrier ship girls, battleship girls have lower requirements for ship equipment and are easier to achieve.

Aircraft carrier commanders often take a long time to grow and must spend some time developing in the joint harbor. However, battleship commanders, upon graduation, are almost instantly capable of standing alone, commanding a garrison and suppressing the Sirens.

Therefore, the increase in the proportion of battleship commanders should be a good thing in any case.

Even from a metaphysical point of view, having so many European emperors is beneficial to the Sirens and humanity as a whole.

So he didn't understand what Musashi meant.

The girl with long dark purple hair nodded slightly, her fox ears twitching slightly. She glanced outside the door briefly before softly saying, "Ordinary commanders don't know about this matter, but I believe Commander Huang Chen should be qualified to know."

Huang Chen paused, realizing that the girl was about to tell some secrets. He immediately sat up straight on the bed with some curiosity, pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

"Commander Huang Chen, have you thought about this question? What is the essence of construction?" Musashi did not say it directly, but raised a question instead.

Huang Chen blinked, "Lottery?"

"Lottery?" Musashi was stunned, his emotions a little incoherent.

"Sorry, I was just talking nonsense. I haven't thought about this question." Huang Chen waved his hand.

Musashi didn't say anything, but remained silent for a moment, as if gathering his emotions. "Generally speaking, it's widely believed that the essence of construction is the resonance between the commander and the Mind Cube."

"Use the magic cube as the skeleton and supplies as the auxiliary to complete the construction of the ship girl."

"The most crucial process is resonance. The commander is not only resonating with the Mind Cube, but also with the echoes of people's historical memories of the battleship. Therefore, during this process, the commander can see some movie-like scenes."

"That is, the image of Old World warships galloping across the sea."

Huang Chen nodded. This was how the construction was described in his training manual.

This was also what he found strange. Theoretically, he should have seen a battleship during construction, but in reality, he saw the ship's mother and the port area.

Musashi didn't notice Huang Chen's thoughts and continued, "But the question is, what exactly is this so-called 'reverberation of people's memories of battleships'?"

Huang Chen was stunned. Isn't this a rhetorical device?

Some say that KanColle are the embodiment of humanity's good wishes for warships, or that they are sea elves, etc., but no one can actually give an accurate answer to what KanColle are.

The prototypes of the battleships of all the ship girls that appear at this stage only exist in the Old World.

The history of the Old World itself is fragmented, and the part about warships is even less.

Unless one is a scholar who specializes in this kind of knowledge, who would know about the warships that have sunk in the sea and in history?

We don't even know it exists, let alone have any good intentions about it.

As for the remnant of memory, it is even more mysterious.
