Azur Lane: I Traveled Through Graduation Port

While controlling the Butterfly of Light to slowly descend, the white-haired, bespectacled maid Edinburgh took the initiative to jump down from the air, unfolded her ship suit and released a mass-produced light cruiser.

After he and Hood and others landed safely on the mass-produced light cruiser deck, Lin Lan was finally able to greet his Royal Knights knights up close.

"George just told everyone that Queen Elizabeth is off today, so I will be the one to award the champion knight of this exercise."

"Hey! Commander, Commander, I heard that the knight who won this championship will have any request he makes from you met. Is this true?"

But before Lin Lan could say anything else, he was interrupted by an excited girl's voice.

Lin Lan followed the sound and looked.

This is a lively girl with short brown hair wearing a white navel-baring top and a dark blue short skirt with white edges, holding a black straight sword in its sheath.

He launched one of the main battleships of the new era, the Prestige-class battlecruiser No. 2, to fight back.

Don't look at Counterattack's appearance, she looks like a naive, playful, and carefree girl knight.

But Lin Lan knew that Counterattack was just like Zhan Xian, a royal veteran who had experienced two Blue Star world wars.

In his port area, Counterattack was also the first royal battleship girl to join his command, and was even the main force in pioneering the new era of his true cuteness.

It's a pity that the rarity and strength of counterattack in the game are not high, and the game official has not implemented any costume changes and modifications for this lively girl.

This makes counterattack in the late game, ignored by many players.

Only an "old" commander like Lin Lan would accidentally see a counterattack without changing uniforms in the dock and secretly curse that the yellow chicken has no heart.

However, he didn't think too much about the counterattack at this time, with a bright smile full of expectation and happiness on his face.

Counterattack looked directly at Lin Lan with her beautiful blue eyes, completely unaware that many of her fellow knights around her were blushing slightly because of her straightforward question.

Of course, Counterattack didn't notice that the person next to her, who was wearing the same sister outfit, had closed her eyes and meditated, and had silently raised the scabbard in her hand.

"Fight back, don't interrupt the commander on this occasion, and apologize to the commander."

"Ah! Sister, it hurts!"

When she fought back, her serious sister hit her head hard with the scabbard. She immediately made a sound of pain and covered her head.

Lin Languang couldn't help but take a breath when he heard the screams from the counterattack.

The force of this blow to the reputation would have given an ordinary person a severe concussion at least.

But for a ship girl to fight back, it was like being hit on the head by a ruler. Apart from covering her head and screaming twice, it had no effect at all.

“There’s no need to apologize...but since you’ve asked this in response, I’ll take this opportunity to answer clearly.

"The knight who wins this exercise, I can grant her one request."

Although Lin Lan didn't know how this reward, which allowed him to agree to the champion's request, came out.

But he felt that giving the champion knight a little reward wouldn't be a bad thing.

So he answered the questions raised by the counterattack with a smile, which can be regarded as increasing the fighting spirit of the members of the Royal Knights.

Sure enough, as soon as he said these words, the eyes of all the royal knights on the sea shone.

Even Warspite, George and Reputation also had fighting intent in their eyes.

If they were still a little worried about being embarrassed to ask Lin Lan after winning the championship.

What Lin Lan said at this time was undoubtedly a shot in the arm for all of them.

"Okay, that's all I have to say, George, we can start organizing the exercises."

Lin Lan saw that all the knights were eager to try, so he looked at the knight commander, smiled and said.

After being called by him, George took a deep breath, nodded to him, and then announced loudly with high spirits:

"The Royal Knights' competition exercise begins now!"

Chapter 937 The Prince of Wales and Counterattack

“Since His Majesty is absent today, the commander will conduct the first round of drawing lots for the competition exercise.

"The knight whose name was called by the commander went to the sea area with coordinates on the radar to prepare for battle."

After George V finished speaking, Rodney next to Lin Lan walked forward with a smile.

The gentle royal battleship lady held a brown wooden lottery box inlaid with gold and an arc opening at the top that had been prepared for some time and handed it to Lin Lan.

When Lin Lan reached out to draw lots in the wooden box, Cheshire showed a puzzled expression and said to himself curiously:

"Huh? Why didn't you see Miss Glory and Miss Perseus during the Knights' drill today?

"Without them, the Royal Knights won't be able to recover their strength after sparring."

The answer to Cheshire's question was Hood's gentle voice:

"Perseus and Miss Unicorn were originally planning to wait for us at the port. I have contacted them and they will be here to meet up soon."

After hearing the conversation between Cheshire and Hood, Lin Lan, who was drawing lots, understood for a moment how the Royal Knights could quickly recover their physical strength and injuries.

These two support aircraft carrier girls from the royal camp, whether they are Unicorn or Perseus, have powerful team healing and preloaded air strike skills in the game.

Especially unicorns.

This cute white one-horned creature, always known as "U-chan", was inseparable and the shy purple-haired girl who affectionately called him "brother" was transformed and became a real land-opening god of war.

Not only does the airstrike damage be high, but the amount of skill healing is also top-notch.

Even in the later stages of the game, Unicorn is the strongest nanny and ship girl.

Knowing that Perseus and Unicorn would be arriving soon, Lin Lan was not worried at all that the royal knights would be injured during the sparring battle.

After groping inside the box for a moment, he quickly took out two nameplates.

"Prince of Wales, is there any counterattack?"

After seeing clearly the names of the ship girls on the two nameplates, Lin Lan called out the names of the two royal knights who were participating in the first exercise in a somewhat surprised tone.

"Hahaha, I didn't expect that the commander would actually make the first draw and turn the two knights who are usually inseparable into rivals."

Even Hood, who was standing next to him, showed a rather helpless smile when he heard about his opponent in the first sparring exercise.

In the history of Blue Star, the Prince of Wales and Counterattack were once organized into the same fleet and went to the Pacific to prepare for the battle against Chongqing.

But unfortunately, because the fourth sister of the Tejas-class aircraft carrier that was supposed to accompany the aircraft carrier to provide aviation support was injured and repaired, both the Prince of Wales and the counterattack were sunk by Chongqing's bombers.

But these are just the history of Blue Star. For them who have become ship girls, they are just vague and distant memories.

"Commander, as I have always told you, destiny can easily go off the rails, so there is no need to worry."

It seemed that he heard Lin Lan's tone.

The handsome blond female knight wearing smart red and white clothes and white knee-length stockings took off the red cloak from her shoulders and walked out of the queue. She looked at Lin Lan with a faint smile and said loudly.

King George V class battleship No. 2, Prince of Wales.

"That's right, Commander, just look forward to my battle with Wales!"

The graceful royal blond lady holding a white rapier finished her words and counterattacked with the same smile at Lin Lan.

"Okay, then I'm looking forward to your performance."

After the two royal knights greeted him, they headed towards the forward practice combat sea area together.

Lin Lan, sisters Hood and Nelson sat on the viewing chairs arranged for them by Edinburgh and Neptune on the mass-produced light cruiser deck.

The royal camp is indeed the camp that knows how to enjoy things the most in his port area.

Even when they were observing the drill, Edinburgh arranged a tea table for them and prepared all the tea sets and black tea.

The other Royal Knights also boarded another mass-produced light cruiser released by Neptune to take a break for the subsequent battle.

"Commander, who do you think will win, the counterattack or the Welsh one?"

While waiting for Neptune to deploy a projection screen that could be connected to the monitoring facilities in the exercise sea area, Hood looked at Lin Lan and asked with a smile.

Facing the direct gaze of the elegant blond lady in front of him, Lin Lan looked at the training sea area in the distance and replied with a smile:

“If I had done it before, I would have definitely said that the Prince of Wales would definitely win.

"After all, Wales is a powerful Joe V-class battleship. As a battlecruiser, it is almost impossible to defeat Wales in a counterattack."

Hu De was aroused by Lin Lan's answer and asked with a smile:

"Then...what does the commander think now?"

"Right now, I think anything is possible until the end comes."

Lin Lan withdrew his gaze, watched Edinburgh holding the ceramic teapot with great care, poured black tea into the teacup on his desk, and answered softly.

The many things he experienced in Oran and Liaozhou before returning to the port area made him firmly believe that no one knew what the final result would be until the last moment.

Everything that has not happened yet may be reversed in the end.

As he finished speaking, the live broadcast of the exercise sea area also appeared on the projection screen deployed by Neptune.

At this time, the Prince of Wales and Counterattack had arrived in the sea area before the war, and each of them had a tacit understanding to finally prepare their weapons and the ship's equipment beside them.

From the perspective of the high-altitude drone on the projection screen, Lin Lan could clearly see the empty sea between the two royal ship girls.

In this sea area, there are artificial islands that have been arranged in advance, which can be used as obstacles to resist shelling.

But Lin Lan knew very well that these obstacles could be easily destroyed by the Royal Knights' powerful artillery fire with just one shot.

In addition, both sides have limited ship-mounted ammunition, so in the end, close combat must be relied upon to determine the outcome.

"here we go."

Nelson suddenly spoke.

Wales and Counterattack, who received the command to start the war at the same time, focused their eyes at the same time, and the control ship began to speed up on the sea.

And the direction they chose to move forward was obviously in the center of this empty sea.

"Boom!"

The brown-haired battle patrol knight girl counterattacked, taking the lead in firing while sprinting at high speed.

The large-caliber main gun shells that drew orange tail flames in the air were like meteors, flying towards the direction of the Prince of Wales.

The distance between the two sides was not far in advance, and it only took a few seconds at most for the artillery shells to hit the target.

As a full-level ship girl who has experienced countless sorties, Counterattack has absolute confidence in the hit rate of her ship's main gun.

It can be said that at this distance, even if she hits a flying insect, she can accurately hit it by predicting the trajectory.

But unfortunately, the target she wanted to fire on was not an insect.

But like her, she was a close friend who had experienced many battles under the training of the commander, the Prince of Wales.

"Fire from this distance and fight back. You are a little too impatient."

Wales faced the artillery fire with a confident smile on his face.

Just when Lin Lan thought that the Prince of Wales would dodge and counterattack the incoming cannonballs...

The next second, the Prince of Wales actually chose a response that made Lin Lan almost unbelievable.

Chapter 938 Show off skills and foreshadowing

Not only did the Prince of Wales fail to evade the counterattack, he even continued to increase his speed.

But Lin Lan had carefully noticed that the large-caliber main gun mounted on the royal battleship was pointed at the sky at an unknown moment.

"Boom!!!"

Under Lin Lan's shocked gaze, the Prince of Wales opened fire.

But it is obvious that Wales is not aiming for a counterattack.

But the cannonballs that have begun to fall in the sky!

Almost as soon as the Prince of Wales opened fire, a violent explosion burst out in mid-air in front of her.

"Wales... actually used artillery shells to intercept the counterattack?"

Lin Lan could not contain the shock in her heart and stared at the screen in front of her in stunned silence.

Even though he had long known how exaggerated the strength of his ship girls was, he had fought side by side with his ship girls countless times before returning to the port area.

But the cool response of accurately intercepting the artillery shells with artillery shells still made him incredible.
