Azur Lane: I Traveled Through Graduation Port

"Go on, but what is it."

Lin Lan narrowed her eyes and motioned for Sun Dewang to continue.

He had already vaguely guessed something.

"But our boss said that he would not allow me to deliver the goods until he saw your sincerity.

For you..."

Sun Dewang's voice became lower and lower, and it was even unclear at the end.

"good very good."

As Lin Lan expected, he knew that the Tianou Group would never cooperate so easily.

"Sincerity? You better think carefully about how to survive my cannon!"

Deutschland beside him showed a cruel smile on her face, and a black and red shark-mouth shotgun appeared out of thin air in her hand, pointing at the head of Sun Dewang, who was almost unable to stand.

"My Lord, please don't, please don't, I am just following orders, please, please spare my life..."

Sun Dewang, who was pointed at by the German gun, was almost having a nervous breakdown. He was enveloped by rampant murderous intent. He could feel that the other party really wanted to blow him into pieces on the spot!

Lin Lan watched all this indifferently. Just when Germany was about to shoot, he slowly raised his hand and signaled Germany to put away the shotgun.

Through this action of Germany, he has already got the answer he wanted, and there is no need to continue acting.

"It seems that the boss of your Tianou Group has a big appetite. Even the entire Yalang City... seems like it's not enough to satisfy him?"

He spoke to Sun Dewang in a mocking tone, but his gaze under the mask was already on the middle-aged man behind Sun Dewang.

This man was also enveloped by Germany's murderous intent, but his face still had a calm smile, without any change.

Sun Dewang, whose clothes were soaked with sweat, breathed a sigh of relief after Deutschland withdrew his shotgun and murderous intent. He didn't dare to say another word.

"Sincerity, haha, sincerity."

Lin Lan sneered, as if he found the word extremely ridiculous.

"It seems that Tianou hasn't figured out one thing yet."

"I'm giving you Yalang City as a kind of charity. I'm sure your boss understands this very well."

"But what qualifications do you, Tianou, have to ask me for sincerity?"

Although he seemed to be saying these words to Sun Dewang, his eyes were always on the middle-aged man named Jian Qianou.

"You think you are one of the five largest financial groups in Orlan, the Zhuhai Business Association. You want to rise, and you also want enough dignity, not this kind of cooperation that is like charity."

"You guys, you want to make money standing up, I can understand."

There was a deep sense of mockery in Lin Lan's tone.

Jian Qianou was still looking at him with a smile on her face, which made Lin Lan smile coldly and speak slowly, enunciating each word.

"But dignity only exists on the edge of a sword. Truth only lies within the range of firepower."

As he finished speaking, Hu Teng finally stopped hiding his aura and directly deployed his ship suit.

An extremely huge, black sickle-shaped mechanical dragon, carrying a deterrent force that seemed to be able to destroy the world, slowly appeared beside her from the void, lifted her up high, and looked down at the two people in front of it with dark golden eyes.

Deutschland, Z23 and Akashi all deployed their ship equipment, revealing their terrifying main guns. Sun Dewang could hardly believe his eyes and sat down on the ground, trembling.

The giant dragon ship suit in front of him, which looked as tall and terrifying as a mountain, made Sun Dewang realize for the first time what a battleship ship girl was.

And even the seemingly harmless little cat-eared girl from Liaozhou was, unexpectedly, a ship girl.

All this happened so suddenly that Sun Dewang’s brain stopped thinking.

It was not until then that he realized who he was negotiating with.

"Tell me, do you have enough dignity in front of me?"

The smiling expression on Jian Qianou's face, which had never changed, was finally covered by deep shock.

Chapter 144: Skygull Prowler

Tianou Group is the oldest consortium in the United States of Oran over the past few hundred years.

Unlike the other four major conglomerates, Tianou Group had already been established in the Western Continent and had a large enough scale when the Eastern and Western Continents of Oran were not yet connected to each other.

Although after the Oran Industrial Revolution, Tianou Group has experienced countless ups and downs of crisis.

But Tianou seemed to be blessed by the god of fate. He was able to turn danger into safety every time, make completely different changes from before, and survive the crisis.

Even though the authorities in Oran have changed one after another, the entire political landscape has been reshuffled time and time again.

But the Tianou still holds a firm place in Oran’s history and has never really disappeared.

This signboard with hundreds of years of history has made many Oran people subconsciously believe that Tianou will not fall.

Jian Qianou looked up at the terrifying black and red ship uniform in front of him.

This was the first time in his long life that he faced such a terrifying and magnificent war machine.

Even though he had once stood on the battlefield of the Natlan Empire and witnessed the masterpiece of Orlan's peak period, the Tyrant Mecha, falling from the sky and fighting with the Natlan Extreme Man who was so powerful that he could float in the air with his physical body, and then falling in the center of the battlefield.

These two supreme weapons, created with all the efforts of civilization, were far less oppressive than the short-haired black woman and the ferocious ship suit in front of him.

And this man who calls himself the head of state is definitely not an ordinary person.

Jian Qianou slowly shifted his gaze to the tall man wearing a mask.

According to the information he had, the commander of this port area should be a young man named Lin Lan.

As an "undercover" of the Tianou Group's board of directors, he had already investigated all the information here clearly before coming here.

No one knows that in addition to the three-member board of directors, Tianou Group also has an absolutely confidential position:

The stalker.

There is only one person in this position, and no one knows the true identity of the spectator.

Unlike directors who handle all matters big and small on the board of directors, undercover agents cannot enjoy great power and wealth.

Instead, he roams around various grassroots areas of Oran all year round, always listening to the voices of the grassroots customers, always controlling the real situation of Oran, and ensuring the authenticity of the news.

The Stalker has one and only one power.

That is, when he discovers a major change that is sufficient to lead to the demise of the Tianou Group, he orders the Tianou Board of Directors to unconditionally obey his demands.

In other words, the Undercover is the real decision-maker behind the Tianou Group.

From breaking the convention and making Tianou Group the first company in Oran to formally cooperate with the Teaching Country, to becoming the first consortium in Oran to employ a large number of Liaozhou people as employees.

Later, during the Siren Disaster, it formed the Zhuhai Commercial Association with four other large conglomerates to steal the country.

All the major changes in the Tianou Group in Orlan's history were carried out under the behind-the-scenes manipulation of the Spy.

Jian Qianou is Tianou's contemporary spy.

"Dignity only exists on the edge of the sword, and truth only lies within the range of firepower..."

"As expected of you, Mr. Leader. I am grateful for your teachings."

Jian Qianou had already noticed from the masked man's eyes that her identity

has been exposed.

After all, his ability to see through minds, which had worked every time before, was no longer effective against this man. The other party must have known that he was unusual.

Although he had long known from the Navy Department's informants and Sun Dewang that the mysterious Iron Cross Fleet was extremely powerful, he had never imagined it to be so frighteningly strong.

So he chose not to pretend anymore and walked slowly from Sun Dewang's side to Lin Lan's front.

"Your Excellency, please forgive our previous rudeness. I apologize for all the offenses I have caused you."

He already understood deeply that the masked man in front of him possessed the power to completely destroy the United States of Oran.

All means and lies will bring destructive disaster to the entire Tianou and even the entire Oran United States.

These... ship girls beside this man are so powerful that they seem to not belong to this world.

Even those terrifying Sirens are no match for these ship girls in front of them.

Over in the East Continent, the recent turmoil in the Goilia Group was probably caused by the person in front of him.

So, under Sun Dewang's unbelieving eyes, he spoke humbly, slowly knelt on one knee on the ground, lowered his head and said sincerely:

"Please allow me to introduce myself again. My name is Jian Qianou."

"This old man represents the will of the Tianou Group."

As Jian Qianou spoke, his body slowly became blurred, and under the sunlight, wisps of light blue mist actually appeared.

Shrouded in the light blue mist, Jian Qianou's face gradually became blurred and his real face could not be seen clearly.

Lin Lan just watched the changes happening to this man without saying a word.

In fact, he had noticed Jian Qianou since she appeared in his sight.

This man is not an ordinary human being.

Rather, it is a spiritual body composed of dense and pure elements.

To put it bluntly, Jian Qianou is a materialized soul.

After discovering this, he activated the power of the hero in advance, directly invalidating the opponent's ability to see through people's minds.

After letting Germany take action to test the opponent, the opponent was not afraid of Germany's murderous intention at all, which made him understand how this soul body could be just an ordinary fleet agent.

But he didn't expect that the other party would be the real person in charge of Tianou Group.

He really attracted a big fish by accident.

Jian Qianou's actions and words did not let the iron-blooded ship girls and Akashi around Lin Lan let down their guard, and they still pointed their guns at the two of them.

After Lin Lan pondered for a moment, he slowly said:

"Since you are the will of the Tianou Group, I believe you have already investigated this place and understood my identity."

"Then you should also understand that I am not a belligerent person, unless the other party is pushing me too far."

Seeing that the man in the black and red mask in front of him was not at all surprised by the changes in himself, Jian Qianou became more certain that all his previous speculations were completely correct.

If he hadn't come in person, I'm afraid Tianou would have really followed the fate of Tomahawk Military Industry and Goilia.

Thinking of the miserable appearance of Yalang City and Goilia Headquarters, the blue mist burning on Jian Qianou's body trembled slightly.

"My Lord, I am the only one who knows all this. If you are worried, I will kill you myself."

Jian Qianou looked at Sun Dewang beside him and said in a deep voice.

Hearing Jian Qianou's murderous words, Sun Dewang shuddered and fell to his knees, kowtowed fiercely:

"Director Jian! I know nothing, nothing at all!"

Lin Lan chuckled. As expected of an old fellow representing the will of the consortium, he was really ruthless in his actions.

But Lin Lan also knew that the reason why this unlucky guy Sun Dewang was so unlucky was almost all due to him.

Moreover, this guy has been pushing Orlan and the ship girls to live in harmony. He is not cunning and does not have too many ulterior motives. He is much more useful than others.

Therefore, he did not intend to kill Sun Dewang, but on the contrary, he planned to make use of this man.

"It seems that you are a smart person, much more sensible than those guys. This person can be reused instead of being completely eliminated."

After hearing his words, Jian Qianou looked at Sun Dewang in surprise, and then stopped worrying about it.

"Your Excellency, if that's the case, I won't keep you in suspense. Would you like to give our Tianou Group a chance to become your most loyal partner in Orlan?"

Oh? You finally revealed your purpose.

The corners of Lin Lan's mouth curled up slightly under the mask.

He and his ship girls had laid so much groundwork, just waiting for this sentence.

Chapter 145: The Surrender of the Tianou Group

"As a partner, aren't you Tianou too arrogant? Do you think you are qualified?"

Lin Lan's cold words through the mask made Jian Qianou's heart sink.

He knew that this would not be so easy to accomplish.
