Azur Lane: I Traveled Through Graduation Port

Lin Lan didn't mean to blame Isuzu. He understood that Isuzu just lacked experience in fighting against enemies from another world controlled by X.

After all, his ship girls usually fight against the Sirens. In the final analysis, the only ship girls who have truly seen the Demon King's army are Akagi and others who entered the Siren Fortress with him.

"Commander, are you a little tired? Do you need to rest for a while before going to find the Great Sage?"

Just as Lin Lan was thinking about finding a solution to this problem, Nagato's concerned voice interrupted his thoughts.

The little battleship fox girl stood in front of him, looking up at him with a look of worry on her face.

"It's okay, I was just reflecting on the battle just now... Wait, I think I have an idea!"

Lin Lan was just about to express his concerns to the flagship of the Sakura Empire, but he found a good idea from Nagato's words.

He immediately bent down, picked up the confused little fox girl, and held her happily in his arms.

"Eh? What do you mean?"

Faced with the commander who suddenly became cheerful and hugged her, Nagato blushed and asked in a silly manner.

Lin Lan looked at Nagato's cute little round face and said with a smile:

"I was just thinking about how to improve the Sakura Empire fleet's combat experience against the Demon King's army."

"But I suddenly found a good idea. Perhaps, we can ask an expert consultant to teach us how to fight the Demon King's army."

Chapter 708: Weapon Improvement Experiment Completed

The expert consultant that Lin Lan was referring to was naturally the former ruler of the Demon King’s army, the former Demon King Shen Lianying.

Originally, if Yuki was still on Snow Sakura Island, it would be most appropriate to let Yuki, as a brave hero, teach the Sakura Empire's ship girls how to fight against the Demon King's army.

But unfortunately, when he was listening to Chikuma's report just now, Chikuma had already told him that no trace of Yuki was found in Xueying Town.

Then this glorious task can only fall on Shen Lianying.

In fact, Lin Lan didn't have high expectations for Shen Lianying. As long as she could tell the Sakura Empire's ship girls about the skills and attack methods of the threatening monsters or commanders in the Demon King's army, that would be enough.

As long as they were mentally prepared in advance, he believed that with the combat qualities of the Sakura Empire's ship girls, they would not fall into chaos even when facing an ambush by the Demon King's army.

In addition to this, Lin Lan also plans to let Shen Lianying introduce to everyone the island core conditions of each main island of Liaozhou and the detailed characteristics of each main island.

After all, the Sakura Empire's ship girls will inevitably follow him to explore these ancient island ruins and look for the fragments of the Time Key.

After all, Kamiesakura was once the ruler of the ten islands, and she must have had a deep understanding of these island core areas when they were not yet ancient ruins.

Although thousands of years have passed, these island cores must be very different from their original appearance after turning into ancient ruins.

But no matter what, with a certain intelligence base, they will not be completely in the dark when they go to the ancient ruins of the island core.

On the way to the shrine, Lin Lan told Nagato his idea.

Of course Nagato nodded in agreement to the idea of ​​having the best of both worlds, as it could both improve the overall strength of the Sakura Empire fleet and obtain intelligence on the next enemy.

The only thing that Nagato was worried about was whether the X contamination in Kamiesakura's body would recur after she came out of the sacred tree barrier.

After all, the day before yesterday morning, when Kamirei Sakura was still in the demon king state, she was able to mobilize the fragments of invisible breath, which really made Nagato a little scared.

Lin Lan also knew that Nagato's worries were not groundless.

Whether it is the invisible breath, the demon army, or the kingdom of God on land that was once led by Marco Polo, they are all closely related to the mysterious enemy X.

If you are not careful when dealing with these terrifying enemies, you may easily get into disaster.

"After I use the Mind Cube to purify Shen Lianying, let's do a physical examination on Shen Lianying together with Yunxian."

"We will release her after we make sure that the X-energy in her body is completely gone and will not regenerate."

After Lin Lan told Nagato about this decision and got the consent of the little fox girl, they also came to the shrine outside the Snow Sakura Island.

And they also saw Akashi, who was still yawning, standing outside the torii gate of the shrine waiting for them.

"Hoo-meow, good morning, Commander and Nagato-sama."

The little profiteer came over and waved to the two of them with a smile:

"I have already handed over the shield generator of the Tianou Group to Chikuma, meow. Commander, do we have business again, meow?"

Hearing the expectant words of the green-haired kitten wagging its tail, Lin Lan, who put Nagato down from her arms, finally understood why Akashi had come here so quickly to wait for them.

It turns out that this little profiteer has already guessed what he is going to do.

Inabajima's Tianou Group took action and began to figure out how to maximize profits.

"You're right. When the client comes, I'll call you and Shiranui."

Lin Lan had originally planned to let the Tianou Group serve the Sakura Empire Fleet. Faced with Akashi who was already eager to make a fortune, he naturally would not choose to hide it.

As the three of them walked toward the shrine, Akashi stood beside him with a flattering smile and said:

"By the way, Commander, if you have time these days, you can come to Yubari's laboratory, meow. Yubari and I have prepared a surprise for you, meow~"

"surprise?"

Lin Lan was stunned when she heard the words of this little profiteer.

Even Nagato cast a puzzled look at Akashi and asked:

"Could it be that Yubari's experiment has yielded results? But I remember Yubari told me a few days ago that her experiment lacks scientific research manpower and it will be difficult to make a breakthrough in a short period of time."

"Well~ If it was before the commander and I came back, it would be like this, meow."

In response to Nagato's question, Akashi explained with great pride:

"But don't forget, Nagato-sama, the Commander can evolve Manchu into Meowth."

"With the help of me and the two newly evolved Bries yesterday, we have already completed the experiment for Yubari two hours ago, meow~"

Mingshi's words reminded Lin Lan that this small profiteer was actually also a scientific researcher in his port area.

As a jack of all trades in Hong Kong, Manju can do any job.

He clearly remembered that when he was at the Xinghai Base on the Xinyang artificial island, he saw many barbarians assisting Memphis and others in conducting experiments.

As the upgraded version of Manju, the Brie sisters naturally inherited Manju's all-round characteristics from the Hong Kong area.

Even their "power of thinking" can be taken to a higher level based on Manju's original abilities.

The two newly evolved Bri that Akashi was referring to must be the two Barbarians who helped him move the Mind Cube yesterday morning.

"So what exactly is this experiment that Yubari completed? I remember Mikasa mentioned yesterday that it was an experiment to improve the weapons?"

Thinking of this, Lin Lan's curiosity was successfully aroused, and he looked at Nagato and asked.

As the saying goes, there are specialties in the profession.

He remembered the ship girls who were good at scientific research in the port area. Although they were all all-rounders in scientific research, there were also many ship girls who had their own best scientific research fields.

For example, Ingraham, a young engineer at White Eagle, is extremely good at developing robots and handmade mechanical products.

The area that the sleepy light patrol fox girl Yubari is best at is the improvement and upgrading of weapons and military equipment.

But just as Nagato was about to answer him, Akashi hurriedly shouted to Nagato:

"Nagato-sama! Surprise, surprise! If you tell the commander in advance, it won't be a surprise, meow!"

"Well... In that case, Commander, when you have time, please go to Yubari's laboratory and visit it yourself."

Nagato looked at Akashi strangely, but finally chose to cooperate with Akashi's performance.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Nagato always feels that Akashi’s personality has been somewhat influenced by the White Eagle Ship Girls.

Lin Lan looked at Mingshi helplessly, not knowing what to say for a moment.

When did this trend of always keeping people in suspense begin to spread in his port area?

While the three were talking, they also passed through several alleys and arrived at the square of the shrine.

Since Nagato had previously arranged for Mutsu to come to the shrine to inform them of the Unzen Demon King's attack, there were already two Sakura Empire ship girls holding paper lanterns waiting for them in the shrine.

Seeing them coming, the two cat-eared Sakura Empire ship girls, one tall and one short, took the initiative to step forward to greet them.

They were the two sisters, Fuso and Yamashiro, wearing black and red shrine maiden costumes.

Chapter 709: Demon King, you are awake, it is time to pay your debts (3200 words)

"Your Highness, Lord Shenzi, has the Demon King's army been repelled? Do you need our help?"

Shancheng still had a bit of worry on his face at this time. This carrier cat girl didn't know the current situation of the battle. She looked at Lin Lan with her red eyes and asked worriedly.

"The Demon King's army has been dealt with. We have captured the commander of the Demon King's army alive and are preparing to enter the Imperial Divine Tree barrier for purification."

Lin Lan first briefly explained the situation to the two sisters, then thought for a moment and added:

"But speaking of help, I'm really going to need your help after daybreak."

The Shrine Maidens and Ship Girls of the Sakura Empire are all able to use the Sakura Empire's secret techniques to purify the pollutants of X, so he plans to let Yamashiro, Fuso and others go to the Five-Storied Pagoda later to meet up with Mikasa and Amagi.

After hearing Lin Lan's arrangements for them, Fuso and Shancheng both showed expectant smiles on their faces.

They were finally able to go out on a mission with the commander, which was undoubtedly something to be happy about.

After asking Fuso and Yamashiro to contact other Sakura Empire shrine maidens and ship girls to gather, Lin Lan, Nagato and Akashi entered the main hall of the shrine together and entered the sacred tree barrier.

Today, the shrine inside the sacred tree barrier looks brand new compared to when he came yesterday.

All the broken walls around the shrines have been cleared away and replaced with new ones.

As if noticing the surprise in Lin Lan's eyes as he looked around the Imperial Tree Shrine, Nagato explained to him calmly:

"Yesterday, I asked Bailong to bring Furutaka and Kagu here to rebuild and repair the shrine."

After hearing Nagato's words, Lin Lan remembered that when the invisible breath destroyed this place, he made a joke and asked Bailong to be responsible for rebuilding this place.

Unexpectedly, Nagato actually remembered his arrangements.

"Don't forget that I also contributed, meow. Their Barbarian Engineering Team was dispatched from me, meow."

At this time, Akashi also laughed and took credit for it, which made Lin Lan reach out and touch Nagato and Akashi's heads affectionately.

As it was still the dark night before dawn, the light around them came from the white dots dancing on the tall sacred trees, like large groups of fireflies.

The three of them walked towards the entrance of the Mikamiki Shrine. Lin Lan looked at the white dots of light and asked Nagato curiously:

"These points of light must be the power of faith, but where does your power of faith come from? It seems that there is quite a lot of it."

As the sacred tree of the Sakura Empire camp, Lin Lan had long known that the most basic function of the sacred tree was to collect the power of faith.

What surprised him was that when he first saw the Sacred Tree, the number of these light spots of faith power was not as many as it is now.

Musashi had explained to him at the beginning that Nagato controlled the power of faith to set up a barrier for Amagi to maintain his body.

But logically, shouldn't the power of faith decrease the more it is used? Why did it grow so much in just two or three days?

"In Xueying Town, many local Liaozhou people worship us as gods, but this is not my intention. It is beyond my imagination that the power of faith can be so considerable."

Nagato looked up at the sacred tree in the shrine and heard Lin Lan's words.

After asking the question, the source of these powers of faith were explained to him.

"I see."

Lin Lan nodded thoughtfully, and roughly understood what was going on.

Before he came to Liaozhou, he heard the White Eagle ship girls tell him that some Liaozhou people regarded the Sakura Empire ship girls as gods.

This is actually quite normal.

Even if the camp in Liaozhou is not the Sakura Empire, but any other camp, I am afraid that the local Liaozhou people will regard the ship girls as gods.

Outrageously powerful, lovely and beautiful, and mastering the magic cube technology that they had never heard of and could be called a miracle...

What else could this be if not a god?

In addition, the Sakura Empire's shipgirls, who possess the characteristics of various animals or mythical creatures, happen to be somewhat similar to the Liaozhou people. It is normal for the sacred tree to collect so much power of faith.

However, Lin Lan also thought that in addition to the Sakura Empire camp, camps like the Sardinian Empire, the Iris Theocracy and the Royal Camp all have their own ways of collecting the power of faith.

I don't know how they use this power.

Just as he was thinking about the power of faith and had just stepped into the courtyard of the shrine, he heard Mutsu's voice coming from the courtyard as if he was talking to someone.

"Why do you have wings, but there are only bones on them instead of feathers?"

"Because my wings haven't recovered yet..."
