Azur Lane: The Azure Life of the Tragic Admiral

This underground laboratory in a dirty and messy area cost him a lot of money and thought. The construction of this place started at the same time as the basement of Villa 72. Unfortunately, Villa 72 was discovered by the company, and this place was built completely according to laboratory standards, so it was too wasteful to use it to place machines.

"No more observation?"

There was a hint of excitement in Mavis' voice. Yang Sikang turned around in surprise and met Mavis' excited gaze directly.

"If we can find the difference between his state and yours and solve the problem, it will be a great research achievement!"

"What's my Mind Cube affinity?"

Yang Sikang suddenly asked.

Mavis' smile froze for a moment, then she frowned.

"Although I don't know the exact value, you should know it, right?"

Yang Sikang said speechlessly:

"The technology of the Mind Cube is still a black box to Azur Lane. Just because it can be used doesn't mean it can be used casually. There are countless people doing research in this area, and my Mind Cube affinity has been rated as very high by Cleveland, so it shouldn't be something that can be obtained by just grabbing anyone, right?"

"indeed……"

"So, the high affinity of the Cube may be related to this situation, but whether it is related requires more samples to verify. So the question is, are you going to capture the commander from the port area for human experiments?"

"……cannot."

"Isn't that okay?"

Yang Sikang breathed a sigh of relief and patted Mavis on the shoulder.

"We just want to verify it. These people were going to die anyway, so we let them make use of their waste. But this does not mean that we can do whatever we want. The bottom line cannot be changed, Dr. Mavis. The results we have now are enough for us, aren't they?"

"you're right."

Mavis sighed, her face full of regret:

"But it's really terrible to have to give up halfway through an experiment when hope is right in front of you. I used to get upset when I saw my mother at this time. It turns out this is how she feels."

Yang Sikang suddenly became curious. He had done many experiments in his previous life, but because of the environment he was in, he either gave up early or persevered to the end. He had no time to think or feel anything.

Now, after hearing Mavis talk about this, I suddenly felt curious:

"What does it feel like?"

Mavis thought about it carefully and replied:

"That's how my mother described it, that feeling of having sex and then suddenly stopping when you're almost there."

Yang Sikang widened his eyes, feeling unbelievable.

What a great stop!

Then he felt a little emotional, Mavis's father seemed to be a master!

"Forget it, let's get rid of this first."

Mavis calmly walked to the machine and operated it quickly a few times.

After a few seconds, the person in the machine had no vital signs, then the fluid was drained and the body was removed.

The guards outside the laboratory came in quickly and carried away the body. They would take care of these things.

After doing all this, Yang Sikang was about to take the opportunity to speak, but Mavis spoke first:

"Don't even think about it. I told you I won't agree to let you do experiments. Otherwise, I won't be able to explain to your ship girls."

"I haven't said anything yet!"

"Does this need to be said?"

Mavis looked at him speechlessly:

"You've spent money on Sirius and Belfast, what else do you have to say?"

Yang Sikang sighed helplessly. He just arranged for Belfast and Sirius to go with the others to deal with the bodies, but he didn't expect that Mavis saw through his intention.

But even so, he didn't think it was a big deal, and instead said directly:

"Then at least..."

Before he could finish, the terminal in his pocket suddenly rang.

Yang Sikang, who was interrupted, frowned and took out the terminal, then his brows frowned even deeper.

"Corporate Commander, what's going on?"

At the other end of the terminal, the sound of Enterprise flipping through files could be heard. After a few seconds, she said:

"Do you have time now? The patrol team discovered a group of sirens approaching the port area. I want to take Essex and Independence with them. It's a good opportunity for them to try their hand."

"Now?"

Yang Sikang looked at the time. It was a little after nine o'clock. By the time he went out to the target sea area, it should be after ten o'clock.

"Yes, now. Night battle."

"it is good."

Belfast just came back. Yang Sikang hung up the phone, scratched his head and said:

"Belfast, tell Essex and Independence to go to the port and meet up with Enterprise. Also, tell them to wait for a while, we'll go with them."

Chapter 96: Night Battle of Aircraft Carriers

Night battles are not uncommon for ship girls.

But Yang Sikang's original intention was that he, Belfast, Sirius and Essex and Independence would go together. However, when he arrived at the port, he found that everyone had already gathered there.

After asking, I found out that the others followed me because they heard that we were going out to fight.

"Then let's go together."

Yang Sikang said directly that after taking up the post, night battles would be inevitable, so there was no need to be pretentious and drive Javelin and the others back.

Nighttime navigation requires speed control, so the Belfast ship was chosen for boarding.

Because this area is within the patrol range of the home port, there is no need to be too careful.

Heading towards the target area at a speed of 20 knots, Enterprise was still talking to Essex and the others on the way.

Javelin and Counterattack seemed to be quite interested in the night battle. The two were already standing at the side of the ship, eager to take action.

The maids were as calm as usual, but Yang Sikang, who was also on the deck, seemed a little strange.

The ocean at night is completely different from the daytime, it is dark, deep and very strange.

The part below the sea surface was completely invisible, and it seemed as if something was ready to rush out in the darkness at any time.

Looking at such an ocean, Yang Sikang's expression seemed a little gloomy, as if he was infected by the atmosphere.

"Master, would you like to rest for a while? We still have some time to reach the target area."

Belfast walked over and said, she seemed a little worried, because Yang Sikang's current behavior really gave people a sense of distancing themselves from strangers.

Yang Sikang turned around, shook his head and smiled:

"Nothing, I just remembered some bad things. In the world I used to be in, the ocean was always like this."

Belfast was stunned for a moment and didn't know what to say.

However, Yang Sikang smiled immediately:

"But it's nothing bad, I just miss it a little bit, haha. Let's go and see if Essex and the others are ready. They are the protagonists tonight."

It was already late when they arrived at the target area. Essex and Independence followed Enterprise and jumped off the ship, unfolding their ship suits and taking the lead.

Normally, an aircraft carrier should be escorted by destroyers and cruisers to ensure its safety during combat. However, because the opponent is just a mass-produced Siren, Enterprise seems to be planning to let Essex and Independence take action to deal with it.

"The visibility is terrible. It would be very difficult to detect the enemy in this environment except by radar."

"Yes, but the reconnaissance aircraft is much better."

Yang Sikang smiled and pointed forward. Essex and Independence had already released the first batch of carrier-based aircraft, but they were dispersed in all directions ahead.

More than ten minutes later, the carrier-based aircraft flew out for the third time, and Independence suddenly raised his hand and pointed in a direction, and then the three aircraft carriers turned and headed in that direction.

"It looks like we've found our target."

Belfast followed them hanging behind, and soon a signal appeared on the radar.

"We have discovered the Siren ships. There seem to be a lot of them."

“If the number was small, Essex and Independence wouldn’t have to take action.”

Yang Sikang said:

"In a night battle with an aircraft carrier, carrier-based aircraft have a huge advantage."

Visibility at night is extremely poor. If neither side turns on the lights, it is difficult to see the opponent clearly, and both naval gun shooting and air defense are very difficult. However, turning on the lights is equivalent to marking the target for the opponent. The Sakura Empire has a say in this regard.

However, on the one hand, carrier-based aircraft have a slightly better field of vision when looking down from high altitudes. On the other hand, due to the maneuverability of carrier-based aircraft, the counterattack caused by air defense at night is much weaker.

Soon, waves of carrier-based aircraft were launched from the bows and crossbows of the two men. Enterprise on the side only released a few sporadic aircraft, and it seemed that it planned to just watch from the sidelines.

"Sirius, Sheffield, move forward a little and see the local response on the radar."

"As you command, my proud master."

"Okay, master."

The two maids quickly jumped off the boat and left to the sides.

In terms of radar coverage, the number of Siren ships plus Sirius and Sheffield should be enough to detect clearly.

The level of strength can be intuitively seen based on the results of a single air strike, and the time consumed and the level of control over the number of carrier-based aircraft are also very important data.

Yang Sikang only has a rough understanding of these aspects, and only professionals can understand the more detailed things.

But these data are of great use to Yang Sikang in another way: arranging coordination between ships and planning feasible coordination routines.

Yes, routine.

Whether it is a naval battle or a land battle, there is a natural advantage in discovering and attacking first, and how to maximize the effect of the first wave of offensive can largely determine the trend of the battle.

How to achieve the best effect of this first wave of offensive and how to pave the way for subsequent battles all require prior preparation and training, which is the so-called routine.

This approach may not be suitable for all scenarios, but it is definitely a good thing.

As for the question of what to do if we can't seize the initiative, why not just find a way to seize the initiative ourselves?

Seizing the initiative is a condition that needs to be ensured, rather than relying on luck to create good fortune!

It can be seen on Belfast's radar that many Sirens are disappearing rapidly under the attacks of Essex and Independence carrier-based aircraft.

But surprisingly, the Essex and independent air strikes did not push the points of hostile targets on the radar layer by layer as expected. The number of remaining ships was small, but the distances were different.

"Commander, do you want to help?"

Javelin had already held his javelin beside him, looking very excited. However, Yang Sikang shook his head:

"Let's see how Essex and Independence perform first. If those Sirens get too close, you guys can come out on stage."

As soon as Yang Sikang finished speaking, Sirius' voice rang out over the communication channel:

"Master, a humanoid siren has been spotted here. Do you want to get closer to confirm?"

"No, wait for orders from a distance and wait for orders."

Yang Sikang turned around and opened another communication channel and said to the enterprise group:

"A human-shaped siren was discovered on Sirius."

"learn."

Enterprise answered briefly, and then Essex and Independence carrier-based aircraft flew over.

"Sirius, pull back."

"Yes, Master."

Watching the carrier-based aircraft fly away, Yang Sikang narrowed his eyes:

"Belfast, are there more and more humanoid sirens appearing around the home port recently?"
