Azur Lane: The Azure Life of the Tragic Admiral

Chapter 209 Royal Invitation

That night, Yang Sikang thought about a lot of things.

There is no fixed thought, just letting thoughts surge and float in my mind.

The problems he had always been most worried about seemed to be gradually resolved in the process of communicating with Belfast. Although the problem was far from being solved, it was already a very good start.

Although he didn't tell anyone that he had actually determined the identity of the ship girl Helena met based on the description, the whole story had gradually become complete in his mind after being supplemented by Helena's experience.

The only question is, who was responsible for restraining the Siren in the first half?

And how did they find the Sirens?

There were many things he didn't understand, but most of them he couldn't get answers from anyone else.

For him, no matter what the result is, finding his former ship girls is inevitable.

But before today, the issue that worried him most was not how to find them or whether he could find them, but what to do after finding them.

The problem was solved in Belfast's words.

He is their admiral, but he is also the current commander of Javelin and Belfast.

Then there is no need to worry about these things at all. His previous concerns now seem to be just self-inflicted troubles.

The next morning, Yang Sikang rarely got up at the scheduled time.

However, after quickly washing, changing clothes and tidying up his appearance with the help of the maids, Yang Sikang still arrived at the office building before the scheduled start time of the business.

Looking at the office building in front of him, Yang Sikang felt quite helpless.

Because of things related to the Mirror Sea, he had been going in and out of this building frequently these days, but the places he went to were not the offices of the companies he used to go to, but those small meeting rooms.

After all, he had made contributions, so those who had questions for him could only be polite.

And today he came here to deal with the technical matters he had given out.

Things in this regard are basically a mess. It's not so much that people are looking for him for something, but rather that everyone wants to get something extra from him.

Maybe other related technologies, maybe some additional licenses.

To be honest, he didn't want to deal with these things. In fact, he had never dealt with these things himself before.

Leave it to Shangri-La or London, and he doesn't have to worry about the rest.

But today he came here by himself, because this discussion shouldn't have happened in the first place.

"It seems I am still late."

Pushing open the door, Yang Sikang greeted them with a smile when he saw Guanghui and Prince of Wales sitting at the table, as well as the maids preparing tea and snacks beside them.

"You are very punctual, Commander Yang. We just came here to make some preparations in advance. After all, given our current relationship, a cold discussion would be too boring."

"After all, we have fought together, right?"

Yang Sikang came to the table with a smile. This small meeting room was originally a standard meeting room, but it was obvious that the royal family had made some small arrangements to the room.

Yang Sikang only had Belfast with him. As soon as he sat down, Hermione and Charybdis brought tea and biscuits in front of him.

"Does the Royal Family have any doubts about the technology I gave out?"

As always, he asked his questions directly and to the point.

The Prince of Wales looked as if it had nothing to do with him, but Guanghui sighed helplessly:

"Commander Yang, are you still going to insist on using such a ruthless way of communicating?"

“I’m just self-aware.”

Yang Sikang shrugged and said with a smile:

"When it comes to diplomacy, I can't compare to Miss Glory. So if you want to avoid falling into a language trap, isn't it the easiest way to be frank?"

"But I didn't mean to set a trap for you... Never mind. Since you want to say that, I'll just say it straight."

Guanghui looked at Yang Sikang, paused for a moment, and then said solemnly:

"The royal family hopes to invite you as a guest. Of course, the time and duration are up to you."

Even though Yang Sikang had thought of many possibilities and made a lot of preparations before coming, he was stunned when he heard this.

He turned to look at Belfast in confusion, but even Belfast was surprised by Guanghui's sudden invitation.

"Miss Glory..."

Yang Sikang tried his best to organize his words, frowned and asked:

"Is there anything the royal family needs to invite me to be a guest?"

The term "being a guest" is very subtle.

If there is something that needs his help, it would be easy to ask him to help given the Royal Family's status in Azur Lane.

And from Yang Sikang's perspective, there was basically no reason for him to refuse such a request.

But if you are invited to be a guest, it is worth talking about.

First of all, the mission is extremely low. Secondly, if he is invited by the royal family instead of Guanghui personally, then his freedom and treatment will not be at the same level at all.

To put it another way, as a major faction in Azur Lane, the Royal Family invited him personally as a guest, which was really... too enthusiastic.

There must be something wrong when things are abnormal. The royal invitation is undoubtedly of great benefit to Yang Sikang, but it is dispensable to the royal family. So there must be something he doesn't know or didn't expect.

The royal family is not stupid!

"It's about the ship's transformation. We hope you can go over and take a look. Some things are hard to explain with words alone."

Yang Sikang frowned slightly when he heard this.

Going to the royal family would bring him many benefits, and he had already made plans for this matter.

But the current situation is just as he told Belfast, it is actually more in his interest to try to go to Sakura Empire first, and the sooner he completes the arrangements regarding the Red Axis, the less risk he will face in the future.

"Regarding ship modification, we at the Royal Academy have indeed done a lot of research. But it is still a long way to go before we can get results. Things have taken a turn for the better until the data you provided is verified. But I'm very sorry that some people rashly put their ideas into practice, so now there are some problems."

Guanghui's embarrassed expression made Yang Sikang understand immediately.

His thoughts suddenly became clear, but he did not immediately believe what Guanghui said.

But if what Guanghui said was true, then it means that the royal family invited him to be a guest in order to deal with the problem, but chose to use the term "guest" to do so, which means that the royal family did not want the problem to be exposed to others.

Yang Sikang quickly went over the matter in his mind and then asked:

“Who is the problem?”

Chapter 210 Yang Sikang's Reminder

Guanghui seemed a little surprised by his question.

But she immediately replied:

"There's something wrong with the unicorn transformation plan. Although it's not the unicorn next to me that's at fault, but..."

Guanghui sighed helplessly, and Yang Sikang frowned after thinking about it.

The Unicorn's transformation plan was indeed somewhat related to him, but the person who caused the problem was a royal family member after all, so theoretically it had nothing to do with him.

But when it comes to the transformation of unicorns, that’s another matter.

Putting aside the uniqueness of the Unicorn for now, the ship transformation is undoubtedly very important to Yang Sikang, especially considering the current situation.

But he had not expected that the royal family would run into problems in such a short period of time.

But this happened to the unicorn, which is a bit troublesome.

"It just so happens that there is a problem with the Unicorn's transformation plan."

Yang Sikang sighed, frowned and asked:

"Is the problem serious?"

"It can still be controlled, but the damage it has caused cannot be eradicated. According to them, if the current situation continues and the problem cannot be solved, irreversible damage will be caused in half a year."

Yang Sikang frowned even more.

Although half a year may sound like a long time at first glance, the problems caused by this technology are not easy to solve at all.

It is normal to find a problem, analyze it and try to solve it. It is common to spend several months from discovery to final solution.

It would not be surprising if the royal family asked him for help if such a problem occurred.

To the royal family, those data and technologies came out of thin air, but to him, they all had complete origins and basis.

Therefore, he has a great advantage over the Royal technical staff in finding problems and analyzing them.

And the matter involves unicorns, which should be one of the reasons why the royal family is anxious.

Although Unicorn itself is a light aircraft carrier, it has the ability to heal the injuries of other ship girls, and her own carrier-based aircraft combat capabilities are also good. Except for her soft personality, she has almost no shortcomings.

And the relationship between Unicorn and Glorious-class is known to everyone. Although she is not Glorious-class, who doesn't know that Unicorn is Glorious's sister?

Considering the importance of the transformation technology itself, it would be strange if the royal family was not in a hurry when such an incident happened.

"If possible, I would like to understand what happened first. Maybe I can find a solution. As for being a guest... I need to think about it again."

Yang Sikang looked at Guanghui and added:

"But I should be able to alleviate the Unicorn's problems to a certain extent, but the extent to which I can do so depends on how serious the problem is."

Glory nodded, but still looked a little worried.

Even if it wasn't her family or the unicorn that was following her that had problems, she still felt uneasy.

Yang Sikang thought for a moment and said:

"I also prepared a plan for dealing with emergencies when I was doing research. I'll organize it and send it to you later."

Guanghui looked at Yang Sikang in surprise, and Yang Sikang waved his hand and said:

"I don't want my data to be lost before it can be used to its full potential, and it would be too much of a loss if a ship girl like Unicorn were to suffer irreversible damage."

"I would like to thank you on behalf of the unicorn, Commander Yang."

"It's just a small matter."

Yang Sikang shook his head and then said:

"I'm sure you two already know about the Purifier. The Purifier that appeared this time is very different from the previous ones, and the biggest difference is in her personality. If you encounter her outside, please be careful.

Even if there is not much difference in firepower and other aspects, the rhythm of the battle is completely different. "

"Is that Purifier much stronger than before?"

The Prince of Wales, who had been quietly beside him, suddenly spoke. Yang Sikang nodded and said:

"There is no difference in basic aspects such as firepower and defense, but there is a huge improvement in reaction speed and flexibility. The Purifiers now have very lively personalities, and if you are not careful, you might even treat her as a friend."

"Lively Siren, this doesn't sound like a funny joke at all."

The Prince of Wales frowned, and seemed to attach great importance to the fact that Yang Sikang specifically mentioned this matter.

"I was able to defeat the Purifier because it was caught off guard. It won't be so easy next time. And the Siren's speed of improvement is very fast. Please be prepared."

He had no choice but to warn the two royal people about the Purifier matter.

Although the previous purifier was also very powerful, it had been repelled after all.

Moreover, because of the large number of battles, it is easy for people to have the illusion that they already know the opponent quite well.

However, the body of the Purifier controlled by other Sirens is completely different from the Purifier itself.

The "natural calculation system" possessed by Siren is extremely powerful. In addition, Siren's own computing power is also extremely strong.

On the other hand, the ship girls in this world, because they are not unique for some reason, there are a lot of them but their combat capabilities are uneven.

And because of the huge number, the resource demand of the Mind Cube is also huge.

Give a very simple example:

In the previous battle, Yang Sikang's command ship supported the Sirius and Sheffield in their deployed state while they were moving on the deck without any signs of capsizing.

But this situation is impossible in general mass production. What is the reason?

It wasn't that Yang Sikang did anything special. He just did something very simple:

Use the Mind Cube to power mass production.
