Azur Lane: I Traveled Through Graduation Port

"Probably Ariel is a product created by the experimental agency based on the executor system I once designed."

Lin Lan finished speaking confidently, and told the good man Richard and the little sword spirit about the omnic crisis that he and the White Eagle Ship girls had experienced in Orandong Continent.

But when it came to the White Eagle Ship ladies, Lin Lan suddenly realized a little trouble that he had to face.

That was the oil crisis.

"Richard, your ship equipment should also consume oil, right? How many more battles can you continue?"

"There are four more times, teacher."

After the good man Richard, who had regained his energy, answered him, he rolled up his sleeves, waved his fists, and said with a confident smile:

"But even if there is no oil, Richard can still use the ship suit to engage in close combat. Ha, let me charge up and punch~"

Lin Lan was healed by Richard's cute appearance and laughed out loud, but he still had some regrets in his heart.

He should have stored some oil in Xumi Ring in the first place to prevent this situation from happening.

Neither the Natlan Empire, which uses spirit stones, nor the Saint Rozolon Teaching State, which uses magic source crystals, has the technology to refine oil.

Fortunately, his Sumeru Ring contains nearly a hundred mental cubes put in by the girls from the White Eagle Ship.

Perhaps after Constellation and Guam completed the improvement of the Sumeru Ring, they conveniently packed the Mental Cube used as energy source for laboratory equipment and put it into it.

In addition, the energy storage of the commander's equipment has also been upgraded by Kirshaji and the others, making it more durable than before.

So for a short period of time, he didn't have to worry about the commander's uniform and reality lens not being able to activate.

"So why does the ship girl's ship equipment have to consume oil? It obviously has Rubik's Cube energy. What is the principle of this?"

Lin Lan looked out the window at the endless dense forests of the Evergreen Mountains and muttered to himself with some emotion.

He had also thought about this problem when he left the Science and Technology Academy with the Iron-Blooded Ship Girls such as Egil in the Western Continent.

But he didn't think much about it at the time and just regarded it as a game setting.

"I remember Dr. Anjie said that there is a certain relationship between Rubik's Cube energy and high dimensions.

"Since the teacher can't remember it, it means it's not important."

Richard was currently surrounding the explorer, curiously stroking the black raincoat on the explorer's body.

Hearing him talking to himself, Richard tilted his head and smiled sweetly at him.

"Gao Wei..."

This is not the first time that Lin Lan has heard this term that has a very sci-fi feel.

In Liaozhou, he learned from Helena meta that Di Beilu planned to use X to use Lu Ling's soul to make a beacon and open a directional channel to higher dimensions.

Regarding Gao Dimension, it would definitely be difficult to get an answer for a while, so he also looked at this exquisite and cute explorer.

"That's right! If the experimental institution has an experimental site in the Natlan Empire, then it must have a stronghold, right?"

Lin Lan looked at the black and yellow plowshark-like ship suit next to the explorer's arm. He suddenly patted his head and asked with great anticipation:

"Explorer, do you have the coordinates of the nearest experimental agency base in your database?"

Although there is no oil in the Natlan Empire, he believes that there is a high probability that there will be such resources in Antiks's stronghold.

When asked with an expectant look on his face, the explorer nodded blankly, feeling flattered, and then replied softly:

"Relevant coordinate data has been searched. Do you want to try to synchronize it, Dad?"

"Ahem... From now on, you should just call me Commander. Richard, can you synchronize the coordinates with her?"

Lin Lan really couldn't accept that he would have so many more daughters in the future, so he awkwardly corrected the explorer's name for him before looking at Richard and asking.

"No problem. After all, this isn't the first time Richard has shared data with Antix~"

The white-haired aircraft carrier girl from the original world smiled proudly, quickly unfolded the ship's equipment, and established a data sharing channel with the explorers.

"Wow, it's so far away? This country seems much bigger than I thought!"

But what Lin Lan didn't expect was that Richard actually exclaimed in surprise after getting the coordinates from the Explorer database.

He quickly took out the map of Dakang County from the Sumeru Ring that the hunter had given to him after fighting to his death, unfolded it and placed it on the table:

"Is the nearest experimental facility within the scope of this map?"

The girl first looked at this simple map carefully, and then sighed heavily:

"Teacher, I'm sorry to tell you that we may not be able to use this map soon.

"According to the map shared with me by the explorer, the nearest Antiques stronghold is in Ronghu County, Nanzhou, which is two full counties away from Qinglin County where we are currently!

"The good news is that we can stop by that stronghold when we go to Dongzhou."

After listening to Richard's report, Lin Lan rubbed her temples with a headache.

"Just to get to Dakang County from here, it takes a whole day to take the Shenxing Boat. Natland is indeed much larger than Oran.

"It seems that after we arrive in Dakang County, we have to find a way to earn some spiritual stones and solve the transportation problem."

After all, Natland is not like Oran. There are well-developed highways between cities and tourism services built along the way.

If he didn't want to take the good man Richard and the explorer daughter he had just recognized to sleep in the wilderness, he would have to buy a spiritual vehicle similar to the Shenxingzhou.

This is not to say that there are no roads for caravans and ox carts to travel between the counties of the Natlan Empire. In fact, there are still inns.

It's just that in Lin Lan's opinion, the speed and efficiency of traveling by those ancient means of transportation are really too low.

He still wanted to go to Dongzhou as soon as possible, join the Donghuang ship girls, and send a signal to the port area to report that it was safe.

"Transportation...Teacher, why don't you just buy this divine boat from those Qingxiao Pavilion limiters?"

While the good man Richard was giving him advice, he took off the black raincoat from the explorer, wrapped it around himself, and struck a cute and handsome pose:

"Since their sect has been brutally destroyed, they will definitely not be able to use this divine boat in a short time.

"Instead of selling the Shenxingzhou to outsiders, it is better to sell it directly to the teacher. This will also reduce the psychological burden on the teacher for saving his life."

Richard's lucid analysis made Lin Lan look thoughtful.

"It's true that as you said, mysterious level spiritual weapons are already scarce, so they may be eager to convert them into spiritual stones in order to revive the sect.

"I'll go ask them later. It just so happens that I have some other questions that I want to ask them about."

Lin Lan accepted the suggestion from the good man Richard and said with a smile.

And the question he wanted to inquire about was naturally the Spark Column and related nursery rhymes that the village chief mentioned before.

He had a vague feeling that this so-called Spark Column was probably related to his Donghuang and Beilian ships.

Chapter 1051 The Demon King of the Natlan Demon Clan and the Beast Tide

Lin Lan spent the whole afternoon in the room with the good man Richard and the explorer.

The Shenxingzhou is indeed a Xuan-level spiritual weapon. Even if it flies at high speed in the air among the forest and fields, it is still extremely stable.

During this period, some eyeless birds and monsters in the Evergreen Mountains wanted to attack Shen Xingzhou.

But there was no need for Lin Lan and others to take action. Chu Miaoyin and the surviving disciples of Qingxiao Pavilion skillfully solved these minor troubles.

A transparent platform will appear around the Shenxingzhou, blocking the long-range attacks of those monsters.

Then the Qingxiao Pavilion disciples on the deck will use various techniques to easily drive away those monsters.

As a sect that has been entrenched in the Evergreen Mountains for more than a hundred years, the disciples of Qingxiao Pavilion are not only familiar with this mountain forest, but also know how to avoid dangerous areas.

This also made Lin Lan feel more and more how important Shen Xingzhou was to him who was about to go to Dongzhou.

In fact, he knew very well that as soon as he opened his mouth, Chu Miaoyin would definitely give him this mysterious-level spiritual weapon without hesitation.

But after all, Qingxiao Pavilion was almost wiped out by a bad omen, so he still felt guilty about asking someone else to ask for Shen Xingzhou.

So he planned to wait until he arrived in Dakang County to see if he could get as many spiritual stones as possible and buy the divine boat in full.

As for why Lin Lan is so confident that he can earn spiritual stones in a short time?

On the way out of the Qingxiao Sect, he had learned from Chu Miaoyin that in recent years, there had been an increasing number of infestations of monsters in various counties in the Natlan states.

According to records in Natlan classics, the beast tide that occurs once every two hundred years is about to reach its breaking point.

Tang Changxun, the king of Beizhou State, had issued an early warning a few days ago that the inheritance of the demon king on the frozen soil of Beizhou had begun. All the powerful demon clans rushed to Beizhou to participate in the inheritance trial.

Monster clan is specifically referred to by Natlan as a monster beast of level seven or above that can transform into a human being.

These descendants of the demon clan all have pure blood. Even if their strength is less than the seventh level, they all have the innate talent of transformation and are also counted as demon clan.

Once the Demon King's inheritance is obtained by a strong demon clan, not only will its strength directly become the Nascent Soul Great Perfection, but it will also allow all the demon beasts in the five states of Natlan to feel its call and obey its orders.

At that time, the demon clan, led by the demon king, will control the terrifying tide of demon beasts to invade cities and villages and devour the people.

The kings of various states have begun to allocate funds a few days ago, calling on both casual cultivators and extreme sects to eliminate monster beasts and monster clans as much as possible to eliminate potential threats before the outbreak of the beast tide.

As long as they can bring back the inner elixir of the monster, anyone can exchange it for the spirit stone in the county government office.

After learning about this, Lin Lan believed that with his strength, it would not be difficult to hunt some powerful monsters in exchange for spiritual stones in a short period of time.

But to stop the beast tide, for him now, he really has more than enough ambition but not enough power.

He still believed that since the Natlan people had been able to withstand so many beast tides, they would definitely be able to survive this time.

As the sky got darker and the orange-red sunset set over the western mountains, Lin Lan took Richard to the deck of the Shenxingzhou after having dinner in the room.

The explorer was placed in the room by him to supervise the little tiger who ate and slept.

In the wooden corridor of the cabin, he could already smell the aroma of food.

It seemed that the villagers were also having dinner in the Shenxingzhou.

Although the Shenxingzhou was made of wood, it was obvious that the wood was no ordinary wood, and ordinary flames could not ignite it.

As soon as he arrived on the deck, Lin Lan saw Jiang Xingyu sitting by the campfire with three young extreme practitioners of the Foundation Establishment realm who were still bandaged.

The formation in the Shenxingzhou has a regional wind-shielding effect, so there is no wind pressure on the open deck.

But what surprised Lin Lan the most was that the four of them, Jiang Xingyu, were actually roasting meat on the bonfire.

In his impression, shouldn’t immortal cultivators have already gone away from grains and no longer need to eat ordinary food?

"Ah, Senior Patrolman is here!"

He and the good man Richard were soon noticed by Jiang Xingyu, who quickly stood up and greeted them.

The other three Extremes also quickly stood up and bowed to them with respect and admiration.

"You don't have to be so formal. I'll bring my apprentice here to take a look around. You can eat and drink as you should."

Lin Lan smiled and waved his hand, and walked up to the four of them with the good man Richard.

Jiang Xingyu seemed to be the eldest sister among the four. With just a look, the other three extremes quickly took out the porcelain plates and brought over the delicious barbecue skewers.

"Um... two seniors, this is just an ordinary dolphin beast bred in the sect, not a monster food for stable cultivation, please don't be offended."

Seeing Jiang Xingyu being so cautious, it was as if he was afraid of making him unhappy by serving him meat.

Lin Lan smiled heartily, took the two plates of barbecue generously, and handed one of them to the good man Richard.

"Food is the most important thing for the people, not to mention this is the delicious food you share. Why do you think I want to blame you?"

After saying that, he and the white-haired girl next to him quickly ate a plate of barbecue in front of the four of them.

Needless to say, the flavor of this seasoned barbecue is almost the same as Blue Star's Donghuang barbecue. It is already considered delicious compared to royal cuisine.

Seeing that he and the good Richard both ate the barbecue without hesitation, the four Extremes first breathed a sigh of relief, and then showed expressions of either surprise or excitement.

“Our path of cultivation without taking longevity tax elixirs is indeed correct!

"Senior Patrol Guard is willing to eat ordinary food like us, which means that he must have never taken the longevity tax pill, right?"

After eating a plate of barbecue, Lin Lan noticed that the eyes of Jiang Xingyu and the three extremers were full of enthusiasm when they looked at him.

Jiang Xingyu's words made him grasp an important point.

"It seems that those who have taken the longevity tax elixir, although their cultivation speed is faster and can be as thorough as the immortal cultivators, are more susceptible to bad omens."

He did not say this conclusion out loud, after all, he had to spend more time to verify it.

Facing the four people's fanatical expectant eyes, he smiled and nodded:

"It is true that we have never taken the longevity tax pill. If we really want to say it, I hope you will not take the longevity tax pill in the future."

After saying that, Richard also wiped the oil from the corners of his mouth and said with a sweet smile:
