Azur Lane: The Azure Life of the Tragic Admiral

Entering the basement, I found that the data here had indeed been processed.

Yang Sikang carefully checked the results of the data processing and nodded with satisfaction:

"Sure enough, compared to exercises with other commanders, exercises with the Royal Army can get more reliable data. Fearless's data is still the one with the biggest fluctuations. It looks like Essex will have a headache again in the next few days."

Yang Sikang smiled and imported the final data into his personal terminal. He quickly circled the part of the data that needed attention with a pen and then handed it to Hermione.

"It's the same. Leave it to Shangri-La. Sheffield, how are you doing?"

"As you expected, we have obtained all the evidence against those people. The equipment you provided was very effective and we captured reliable evidence."

"Belfast should still be with Guanghui and the others. Take those things over and give them to the Prince of Wales."

"I understand."

Sheffield left, and Hermione said:

"The data has been completely transmitted to Shangri-La and has been confirmed to be received. At the same time, Shangri-La has sent back some information. Do you want to view it now or wait a while?"

"Send it to me now. The program here just needs to be processed."

"Ok."

While receiving data on his personal terminal, Yang Sikang sat down in front of the computer and quickly began to deal with the problems left over from above.

A few minutes later, he picked up the terminal and looked at the information sent by Shangri-La.

With a quick flick of his fingers, he sent two of the copies directly to Sheffield, and the others to the printer.

Hermione quickly brought over the paper document. Yang Sikang picked up a pen and sketched some content on it. Then Hermione took the document, cut out the necessary parts and put them away.

Yang Sikang simply handled all the written work in the basement. While waiting for the computer program to complete, he had almost finished today's work.

Hermione had a gentle smile on her face throughout the whole process. When she saw Yang Sikang finally stop, she helped him organize the documents while saying:

"Seeing the commander successfully completing each task, I feel happy for some reason... It's incredible."

"The faster we get these things done, the more time we'll have left to allocate freely. By the way, is Belfast back?"

"The head maid returned to the villa 12 minutes ago. She is dealing with a visitor now."

"Guest? Who?"

"It's the reporter named Andy."

"here we go again?"

Yang Sikang frowned.

Since meeting him on the day of the royal welcome dinner, this Anti journalist has been visiting him more and more frequently.

It would be fine if she came for an interview, but it would be easier to deal with her when she doesn't want to see me.

But the other party always visited in a private capacity and did a good job every time.

There were no loopholes for him to find fault with, but the frequent visits made it difficult for him to feel at ease.

Especially since he still suspected that this woman was the observer.

Yang Sikang did not tell anyone else about the information about the observer, not because he wanted to keep it to himself, but because the existence of the observer was too sensitive and could easily cause chaos.

Imagine that there is a highly intelligent, high-level Siren who can transform into the appearance of other people and blend in among the ship girls without being discovered. Once this information is disclosed, it will cause an uproar if it is not handled properly.

Once everyone feels insecure, the situation will be difficult to resolve.

Because of this, instead of completely rejecting Andy's visit, he had to find ways to find some clues.

But when it happens too often, it becomes difficult to deal with.

So Yang Sikang handed the matter over to other people to deal with. Basically, Shangri-La, Belfast and Newcastle were the three people who dealt with this woman.

In order to avoid any problems in the response in Belfast, he decided to stay in the basement until Andy left.

The two pistols he made earlier were basically not used during this period, but he never stopped performing necessary maintenance.

Since he had nothing to do, he put the two pistols into the machine and checked them.

However, after a few minutes, Yang Sikang frowned.

"Why does this gun seem to be in a weird state?"

He called up other data in the database for reference and comparison.

The results came out quickly, but also surprised him:

The overall strength of these two pistols has been improved compared to the data entered when they were just completed!

The main data changes detected appear on the material, and it can be clearly distinguished from the data that the difference is definitely not caused by errors.

"what happened?"

The first thing that came to his mind was the special material that did not exist in his original material list. However, judging from the results of his previous tests, that thing should not cause such changes in the data.

When the material is made into a firearm, its shape is completely fixed, and there is no reason for such a change to occur.

He wrote down a few numbers on a piece of paper, then tore off the paper and handed it to Hermione:

"Go to the warehouse and get one piece of each of these materials, and also get three mind cubes."

"Okay, please wait a moment."

Yang Sikang leaned back in his chair, squinted his eyes at the data, and muttered:

"It can't be such a coincidence, right?"

Chapter 145 Research Methods for New Materials

In Belfast, she watched Andy leave, and only sighed slightly after closing the door.

This reporter was difficult to deal with, but fortunately he was quite reasonable.

I went to see Guanghui early in the morning, and then I met this lady. Even Belfast felt a little helpless.

Yang Sikang has not come out of the basement yet, but according to the plan, he should have completed the original task long ago.

When Belfast came to the basement, he saw Yang Sikang placing the two pistols on the operating table, and several different pieces of materials were placed on one side of the desk.

She recognized that they were the materials used to make the pistol. After the pistol was completed, the materials were made by machine in the spare time and kept as archive materials.

"Master, reporter Anti has left, but he expressed the hope to interview you again. I did not respond immediately."

"Let's put this matter aside for now. That reporter is not simple. Compared with this matter, now I have a little... unexpected surprise."

Yang Sikang turned around with a smile on his face.

"These two pistols have not been used since they were made, but when I checked them earlier, I found that their material strength had actually increased. The material was still changing after solidification, which was something I didn't expect. So I did some simple tests and got this."

He picked up a thin piece of metal plate at hand, about the size of his palm and less than two millimeters thick.

It looks ordinary from the outside, and there is nothing strange about the weight when holding it in the hand.

"Try to unfold your ship suit."

Belfast unfolded his ship suit, and the metal plate in his hand suddenly emitted a faint fluorescence. Although the intensity was extremely low, Belfast clearly felt the uniqueness of this material.

It can actually allow the energy of the Mind Cube to flow through it!

Although there will be some loss, causing the material itself to emit a faint blue fluorescence, this situation is not common.

"This material is made by imitating the material used to make these two pistols. After being placed in the high-energy environment overflowing from the Mind Cube for half an hour, this material has the property of allowing the energy of the Mind Cube to flow through it. Other materials do not have this property."

Yang Sikang then showed Belfast other materials used as a control experiment, and the results were just as he said.

Does it matter that the energy of the Mind Cube can flow within the material?

It is very important if you want to say it is important. It is like power transmission. Although high voltage electricity can break down some materials that are not conductive, you can't use high voltage electricity to break down materials to transmit electricity, right?

It would be fine if it is used occasionally, but if it is used for a long time, stable transmission is of utmost importance.

But it is not that important, because there are such materials in the world, and there are also many ways to simply utilize the energy of the Mind Cube.

Although the technology is not very mature, it is enough for use.

However, this material can circulate the energy of the Mind Cube, which is very important to Yang Sikang!

On the one hand, he has the material in his hands, and on the other hand, the original intention of making these materials is to make them into weapons.

And now it can flow the energy of the Mind Cube, and can even produce essential changes under the influence of the energy of the Mind Cube.

So no matter how slow the change is, it is a huge discovery.

Moreover, how long had it been since he made these two pistols? The speed of change was already very fast!

In just a short while, Belfast had already thought of several possible ways to utilize this feature.

"Master, you always bring surprises to people."

"It's a coincidence. I just had nothing to do. Otherwise, I don't know when I would have noticed this change."

"So, what are your plans?"

"What about you?"

Yang Sikang looked at Belfast and said with a smile:

"Does the head maid have any suggestions?"

"I think this matter should be kept secret for now."

Yang Sikang smiled and nodded, and Belfast said:

"Everyone in the royal family is in the port area now, but judging from the previous negotiations, the royal family still does not value you enough. Although His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales gave you a special magic cube, if you follow this trend and build the Prince of Wales, others in the royal family will look down on you."

"This is a good opportunity to enhance my reputation, so I think if you are confident that you can complete this research on your own, we can keep it secret and avoid the royal family."

"Yes."

Yang Sikang nodded and said:

“But it’s not just the royal family that has to be bypassed.”

Yang Sikang sent all the information to the printer, and then said:

"I tried to communicate with the shipgirls of Donghuang before, but failed. After that, I tried to communicate with the shipgirls of other factions, but the only ones who failed unusually were Donghuang and Sakura Empire. Prince of Wales said that the technology that gave the Rubik's Cube its special properties happened to be passed on from there, so I think these two things may be related."

He took out the two Rubik's Cubes given by the Prince of Wales. According to the Prince of Wales, as long as these two Rubik's Cubes were used to build, a Prince of Wales could be built.

"The Sakura Empire has mastered the method of giving the Rubik's Cube special properties, and at the same time, I can't communicate with their shipgirls. If I wasn't rejected personally, then perhaps the Sakura Empire has banned certain people from building their shipgirls in some way. And this technology is their way of making up for the inability to build."

"You mean..."

"We select outstanding commanders through screening and training, and then give them special cubes of KanColle after assessment.

This way they can reduce resource consumption, improve utilization and also help them to manage the talent within their own country.

Because in this way, those commanders will never be able to escape from their control."

Belfast narrowed his eyes, and Hermione also became serious for a rare time, and the smile on her face disappeared.

"This is good for resource utilization, but the will of the ship girl is..."

Hermione didn't finish her words, but the other two knew what she meant.

If it is done in the way Yang Sikang said, the resource utilization rate will indeed be improved, but it is completely uncertain whether the ship girl and the commander are suitable for each other.

If normal construction is described as a two-way choice, then the method Yang Sikang just mentioned is a one-way call.

You have to go when the time comes, whether it is suitable or not. This is not a choice, but a "job", but it is a "job" that cannot be escaped.

For them as ship girls, this is undoubtedly a very cruel thing.

Chapter 146 Construction of a Heavy Cruiser

"Don't be so serious. After all, this is just our speculation now. It may not be true. We have to find out the truth."

Yang Sikang first broke the atmosphere of indulgence and then said:

"But now that we know this technology exists, there's a lot more we can do."

Hermione was still a little surprised when Yang Sikang said this, but Belfast already understood what he meant.

"We can't rush this matter. We need to plan it slowly. Let's put these things away first. Thank you for your help."

Belfast worked with Hermione, and the two quickly began to organize the things on the desk. Hermione also took the printed materials and filed and put them away carefully.
