Azur Lane: The Azure Life of the Tragic Admiral

"Okay, Yang Sikang, just tell me what you want. We can talk about other things after we have settled this. My problem will be solved as long as your trouble is solved, so don't worry about it."

Yang Sikang shrugged, but since Cleveland had spoken himself, he didn't beat around the bush like he was talking to a company, and said directly:

"According to the regulations, each commander must be assigned a human adjutant and a designated port area, and then undergo a three-year internship. Only after passing the final test can he take up his post and become a real commander, right?"

"That's right. These things are completely open, and they are indeed carried out in this way."

“I want my adjutant and port officer to be chosen by myself rather than appointed by others, and I want to shorten the three-year internship period as much as possible.

In exchange, no information about what happened today will be spread, and no matter when, where, or whoever asks, my answer will only be a stroke of luck."

After Yang Sikang finished speaking, he looked at Qiye's eyes with a playful look, and asked in the face of that murderous look:

"What do you think Miss Enterprise?"

Chapter 11 QX-306 Port Area

“That’s not really in line with the rules.”

Enterprise frowned and said:

"The adjutant's job is easy, but choosing the port district is a matter of my own..."

Generally speaking, the choice of port area is arranged by the Ship Girl Headquarters, based on the ship girls built by the commander and the actual combat effectiveness they can exert, and according to the conditions of different port areas.

This is a policy designed to reduce risks and casualties.

Before this policy was introduced, there were situations almost every year where a commander with a powerful ship girl would go to the back and do nothing, while a commander with little combat power would go to the front line and be quickly killed.

Therefore, it is not difficult to choose your own lieutenant, but it is a bit difficult to choose your own port area.

"I want the QX-306 port area."

Yang Sikang knew that the company must have thought that he wanted to choose a very safe port area in the rear, so he simply spoke out his expectations.

This answer did make Enterprise raise her eyebrows in surprise, but it also made her more serious.

QX-306, this number is more appropriate to be called the 'front' port area rather than the port area.

That place was originally the front line, but starting a year ago, the Siren's offensive against that area suddenly increased sharply.

And just a few months ago, the exceptionally prominent frontline port area of ​​QX-306... was completely razed to the ground.

The place where Cleveland found Yang Sikang was in the QX-306 port area, but because of the Siren's offensive, not to mention QX-306 itself, even the other nearby ports have all retreated. Now QX-306 is an isolated island in the bay!

In the company's office, there is a document that has not yet been approved. Its content is the proposal to abandon the bay where the QX-306 port is located and to shrink the defense line.

The terrain of QX-306 is quite special, as it is a natural bay.

It is similar to making a circular hole on the edge of a piece of paper. The advantage is that there are no reefs or rapids in the bay, which is suitable for anchoring. The disadvantage is that when used as a front-line position, this terrain makes it impossible for the defense line to pull out a complete net.

The Siren's carrier-based aircraft are not kidding you. Such a large bay embedded in the port area is a weak firepower area! As for the counterattack by carrier-based aircraft... guess why there are so many commanders?

The most troublesome thing is that there are several small islands of very awkward size in the sea area where QX-306 went out. They are not enough to set up another port area, and at the same time they will hinder the attack range of the QX-306 port area.

"QX-306 won't work. I've already given up on it. Let's try another one."

After realizing that Yang Sikang was not planning to just sit around and wait for death in a port area in the rear, the company's attitude immediately changed dramatically.

However, she obviously had no intention of discussing the issue of QX-306, and even described something that had not yet been finalized as if it were a settled matter.

Yang Sikang has a high affinity for the Rubik's Cube. Naturally, she is reluctant to let go of such a talent, nor does she want him to find a safe haven in the rear to eat and wait for death, but this does not mean that she wants Yang Sikang to die.

On the contrary, she would try her best to avoid the possibility of letting Yang Sikang die, so QX-306 would not even be within her consideration.

"Although QX-306 has become a ruin, it should not have been abandoned, right? I want QX-306, and there is still an internship period, right?"

"The internship period is only three years at most. Can you be strong enough to guard QX-306 in three years?"

The enterprise shook its head and kindly advised

“You have a long way to go in the future, if you want to go there, you’ll have a chance later.

But you don't have the ability to guard QX-306 right now. If you die before you grow up, it will be meaningless. What's more, it will be irresponsible to the ship girl you built."

Yang Sikang raised his eyebrows and glanced at Cleveland next to him. The latter stuck out his tongue and turned his head away.

Obviously, she was the one who told Enterprise that she was responsible for the ship girls.

"Even if QX-306 is abandoned, you can still find a way to take it back when you have enough strength in the future."

The company went on to say:

"There's no need to rush to such a dangerous area now. Let's think about it later. Although changing the port area is troublesome, it is not impossible as long as you are strong enough."

Yang Sikang frowned slightly and tapped his body lightly with his fingers.

QX-306 was the area where he came to this world. Although he knew that it was already a ruin, ordinary people had already evacuated there and returned to inland areas.

But his intuition told him that he would definitely find what he wanted in that place.

Moreover, he did not choose QX-306 on a whim. He had been thinking about this issue since the moment he decided to become a commander.

The QX-306 has a lot going for him.

One is that because of the danger and location there, although it is difficult to get quick support from other port areas, it is correspondingly more free, and it is not easy to be discovered when doing special things.

Secondly, there is a natural bay there, which with a little treatment can become an excellent inner harbor.

The nearby islands might seem like a hindrance to others, but he already had a more feasible plan in his mind.

Of course, there are risks, but as long as he succeeds, the benefits he will get will be huge!

High risk, high reward, and he is confident that he can build the ship girl he wants, which is the main reason why he thinks he can go there. Unlike other people who rely on luck to build, and victory is considered as soon as the ship is launched, his construction must be more stable and reliable, which is his biggest advantage.

But he also knew that this was also the core factor that prevented companies from agreeing to let him take risks.

"Is there no room for negotiation?"

Upon hearing this, Enterprise looked over and asked:

"How do you want to discuss it?"

There is a play!

He knew very well that as long as there was something to talk about, there was still a chance. So he said without hesitation:

"Just like the Javelin, I will first select a ship girl for the next construction. If I fail or build a different ship girl, I will honestly follow your requirements, practice for three years, and then accept the port area you arrange.

But if I succeed, I hope you will give me the opportunity to test it once a year."

Enterprise raised his eyebrows and asked:

"Use the test results to assess whether you can go to QX-306?"

"Yes, if my evaluation results can meet expectations, I hope to go there in advance to build my own port area. If not, then I will still follow your arrangements. How do you think?"

Enterprise's eyes flickered, this proposal undoubtedly met her hopes.

However, at the same time, she was also worried that Yang Sikang might really be able to gain the ability to gain a foothold in QX-306 within a year, because that would further prove that he had a bright future and his value would be even higher.

But if he disagrees, can he accept it?

Qiye looked into Yang Sikang's eyes. His expression was firm, but he did not show much intention to discuss.

Considering this guy's previous style, Enterprise was a little worried that if he rejected all his proposals at once, this guy would simply do nothing.

After all, this guy has a criminal record, and he really dared to waste the Rubik's Cube and actively build a failed one!

Enterprise looked at Cleveland. If she was to be honest, she definitely knew Yang Sikang better than he did.

But Cleveland just shook her head. It seemed that she was not sure whether Yang Sikang had the ability in this area.

"Can you tell me why you insist on staying in QX-306? It's not a good place, and it's difficult to defend."

Yang Sikang looked at the company and replied with a smile:

"Because I was rescued from there by Cleveland, and I should stand up where I fell."

Chapter 12 Selection of the Second Shipgirl

In the end, the company agreed to Yang Sikang’s...bet?

Of course, in addition to worrying that Quan's refusal would make this guy quit, she also didn't quite believe that Yang Sikang really had that ability.

You should know that a large number of ship girls does not mean strong combat effectiveness. The strength of ship girls is influenced by many factors other than themselves.

Such as combat experience, mastery of one's own abilities, the strength of the ship's equipment, and the coordination between different ship girls.

The word "powerful" can never be encompassed by excellence in a single aspect. Whether it is experience or the use of abilities, these cannot be changed by external things and can only be improved through accumulation over time.

Want to reach the level of being able to stand on the dangerous QX-306 in just one year? This is simply impossible!

Yang Sikang naturally knew the company's ideas, but he didn't care.

Since he dared to make such a proposal, he must have his own plans.

If you succeed, that would be the best. If you fail, it's just a three-year internship.

Three years is definitely enough for him to gain a foothold.

She left soon after the business talks because she was the person in charge of this port area and had a lot of things to do.

The remaining details were left to Cleveland.

but……

"Cleveland, shouldn't we get down to business?"

Yang Sikang looked at Javelin and Cleveland who were chatting in silence. After leaving the company, Cleveland ran to talk to Javelin.

I don’t know what’s going on with these two. One is a light cruiser and the other is a destroyer, and they’re not from the same company. How come they are chatting so happily?

It's been almost an hour, but Cleveland has no intention of discussing business with him!

This made Yang Sikang quite helpless, but there was nothing he could do.

"There's really nothing to talk about."

Cleveland turned around and said:

"As long as you don't fail in your next construction, you will definitely get a very high reward for owning two ship girls.

As for what happens next, you should also understand that it is impossible for you to be sent abroad for an internship, right?

We are all in this port area anyway, so it doesn’t matter whether we talk about it now or later, and it won’t affect the actual situation.”

"But could you at least pretend to finish the work?"

“Logically speaking, I am still a suspect and not eligible to work.

So it's perfectly reasonable for me to be here chatting with Javelin, and please stop interrupting me! I'm just getting to the point! Shut up, shut up! "

Yang Sikang, who was rejected by Cleveland, was stunned. He had no choice but to pick up the unfinished painting and continue to perfect the details.

After finishing it, he put it aside, and seeing that the two were still chatting, he started to paint the next one.

However, this time he did not draw what was in front of him, but instead drew four different images on paper based on his memory.

When the game becomes reality, the biggest problem may be that the real characters and the two-dimensional images are not completely consistent.

Fortunately, this was not the first time he encountered this situation, so he did not have any problems with adapting.

But it is somewhat difficult to draw a realistic image based on the vertical painting in memory.

So, all he drew were standing pictures.

The four people drawn on the same piece of paper are: Belfast, Sirius, Charybdis, and Hermione.

After thinking for a moment, he added two more: Dido and Scylla.

The next construction naturally cannot be carried out immediately. On the one hand, he has no money now and has to wait for subsidies from the port area and wait for moving.

On the other hand, the topic of immediate success in the second construction is much weaker.

He knew very well that if he wanted to get the most resources, he must first get the most attention.

Because of the incident in Cleveland and what happened today, although he is notorious, he is also considered to be a little famous, but this is not enough.

It would be best if Enterprise could discuss his matter with others and report it to Azur Lane's headquarters.

And these six maids were the list from which he had to choose one.

The choice of the royal maid was the result of careful consideration.
