Azur Lane, I really didn’t lose my memory!

"Yes, Sister Helena, if you haven't formed a team yet, why don't you join Rafi?"

Rafi was squatting on the ground. She had a piece of dogtail grass in her hand and was teasing the knight.

"Sorry to disappoint you, Commander, I have also formed a team..." Helena said.

"No need to apologize. Helena must have a lot of ships to invite you if she's so strong."

Lu Xiuyuan just asked, after all, Helena was the top support player in the port area. It would be better for him and Laffite's magical team to win the championship unexpectedly than to hope that Helena would not be invited away by others.

"But I'm still very curious, Helena, which team did you join?" Lu Xiuyuan asked.

"Commander, does this count as spying on military intelligence?" Helena joked.

"I guess so. Helena, can you tell me?" Lu Xiuyuan also joked.

"Well...it's not a secret, so it doesn't matter if I tell the commander." Helena said, "The flagship is New Jersey, the main battleships are Kearsarge and Yorktown, and the vanguard ship Seattle..."

"Stop, stop, stop. I don't want to know now." Lu Xiuyuan couldn't listen any further halfway through.

The back row is full of sea legends, how do we defeat them?

You can’t win, you can’t win at all. It doesn’t make much difference whether you listen or not.

Lu Xiuyuan even felt that his team, which was cobbled together from nowhere, might not even make it past the preliminary round and would have no chance of competing against New Jersey and the others, so there was no need to think about it for so long.

If you really encounter this situation, just invest directly and that's it.

"So, Helena, your team should be able to secure the championship this time..." Lu Xiuyuan said.

"It's hard to say before the game starts. After all, there are strong teams in other camps." Helena said modestly, "As far as I know, the Royals' lineup is not weak either. The Sakura Empire's lineup is even full of sea legends..."

"Then I feel that you have a greater chance of winning." Lu Xiuyuan and Lafei squatted on the ground and petted the dog together.

"Commander, why are you so sure?" Helena asked in confusion. Obviously, judging from the lineup, the Sakura Empire, which has all sea legends, has better data on paper.

"Then let me ask you the other way around. Helena, which camp do you think has a greater chance of winning this game?"

"The iron-blooded Bismarck and Frederick the Great are very strong at long range, and their secondary guns can wash the deck at close range. They should have a good chance of winning, right?"

"The Iron-Blooded Shipgirl has poor air defense. Once they lose air control, they will be caught in the trap. And air control happens to be what the White Eagle Shipgirl is good at."

"What about the Royal Navy? The Royal Navy will fight whenever they see an enemy. The sharpshooter Warweary can sink an enemy ship at a distance of 24 kilometers. Aircraft carriers like the Glorious class also have strong air control capabilities."

"The Warspite is nothing more than a World War I sentimental ship. It's too slow, and its caliber is not as good as the New Jersey MK7. As for the Glorious class...it can do air superiority, but its hangar is small, so it can't fight a war of attrition."

"What about the Sakura Empire? The Musashi 460 is a very powerful aircraft carrier. The Hakuryu and Shinano are also first-class aircraft carriers. They are proficient in air control, torpedoes, and bombing. They should be considered very strong, right?"

"The 460 is too slow to reload, and the Musashi's air defense is almost non-existent. Although the front-line ship girls have luxurious data, their air defense is weak, and the fleet carriers have to allocate more fighters for escort."

"What about...Iris, Sardinia, and the Northern Union?"

"The reasons are the same. There is a lack of powerful aircraft carrier girls or obvious shortcomings."

"The White Eagle?" Helena asked.

"That's right! The White Eagle Fleet Girl's system has no obvious shortcomings, so the champion of this exercise can only be the White Eagle Fleet Girl or..."

Lu Xiuyuan stopped stroking the dog's head and looked at Helena with a serious tone: "...or the elders of hundreds of families."

142-Always with you

Exercises are different from map pushing, and comprehensive mix and match is often better than the camp system.

After all, PVP requires speed, accuracy and ruthlessness. Don't delay or fight until the late stage, and try to kill the enemy within three moves.

As the saying goes, "speed is the key to success." As long as I knock you down first, no matter how brave you are, as long as you are half a beat slower than me, I can make sure that you will be defeated before you can even use your skills.

After briefly exchanging suggestions with Helena about the exercise, the three of them and the dog sat together and chatted for a while.

I don’t know if it’s because I walked a lot in the afternoon or because I just woke up, but Rafi felt a little thirsty.

The little girl took out a bottle of Oxy-Coke from somewhere, raised the bottle and was about to blow into it.

However, the inside of the bottle was empty. The little girl's expression was full of regret, and she stretched out her small tongue to lick the neck of the bottle.

"Coke...no more." Rafi shook the empty bottle.

Lu Xiuyuan felt itchy when he saw it and wanted to transform into Oxygen Coke immediately, but unfortunately he didn't have the ability to do so.

"Drink mine." Helena took out a large thermos from her waist, and took out some disposable paper cups, filled them up and handed them to Lafite: "Although it's not Coke, it tastes pretty good."

"By the way, Commander, do you want to drink too?" Helena asked, holding the thermos in both hands.

"what is this?"

"A sports drink prepared for Cleveland and the others." Helena poured a cup for Lu Xiuyuan and added, "It's not the kind sold in supermarkets. I made it myself."

Lu Xiuyuan picked up the disposable paper cup and looked at the green liquid in the cup, which smelled a faint fragrance.

The Lafite next to him could not resist the temptation and drank it in gulps. It looked delicious.

Lu Xiuyuan was a little more reserved: "This is for Cleveland and the others. We've finished drinking it. It would be bad for them to have nothing to drink after exercising, right?"

"It's okay, Commander. I have prepared a lot of things in the venue. Even if they finish this bottle, it won't affect them."

"Then... I'll try it." Lu Xiuyuan was no longer making excuses. In fact, after walking for such a long time, he was a little thirsty.

After one cup, it tastes surprisingly good.

There is a light grape flavor.

"It tastes great." Lu Xiuyuan never hesitates to give compliments. "Helena, you will definitely be a good wife and mother in the future."

Helena was stunned at first when she heard the commander praising her as a good wife and mother.

Then she subconsciously glanced at the ring of promise on her left ring finger, and seemed to have thought of something, and her little face suddenly turned red.

"Sister Helena...your face is so red." The little angel Rafi added an inopportune blow.

"Lafite..."

After hearing what the little girl said, Helena was a little at a loss and moved awkwardly.

Lu Xiuyuan didn’t notice all this. He had been saying too many sweet words recently, so such simple words of praise didn’t attract his attention.

He just saw the loving way Rafi relied on Helena: "You two have a really good relationship."

Rafi nodded and said proudly, "When the port area was first established, it was Rafi who brought Sister Helena back to the port area."

"Bring it back" means to attack and sink the Siren fleet and rescue the ship girl.

Lu Xiuyuan's Helena was salvaged. At that time, it was a new development period, and there were not so many resources to build.

Fortunately, I was lucky enough to find Daddy Ke and Helena directly from the pictures in the first few chapters.

I remember that it was very difficult to advance the map at that time. It was not until Helena and Cleveland grew up that the experience of advancing the map became much better.

"Well, it's like this." Helena sat on the bench, stroking Rafi's soft white hair, while the girl fell into her arms.

"It was thanks to Rafi that I was able to meet the commander." Helena sighed, "Many years have passed in a flash."

I remember when I first came to the port area, there was nothing in the port area.

There are no resources, no ship equipment, and not many ship girls.

Although Lafite brought her back to the port area as a senior, in actual daily life, it was she who took care of Lafite more.

“Woof woof~!”

At this moment, the knight suddenly called out twice, and his eyes fell on the disposable paper cup that Lafite had finished drinking.

"for you."

Rafi pushed the paper cup to the knight, who, after receiving the cup, happily wagged his tail and licked the remaining drink in the cup.

Lu Xiuyuan suddenly thought of a question, looked at Helena and said, "I just tasted grapes. Helena, did you add grapes to your sports drink?"

"Yeah, with some grapes and blueberries."

"Uh..." Hearing that Helena really added grapes to the sports drink, Lu Xiuyuan looked at the knight with some concern: "It seems that dogs can't eat grapes, right?"

Lu Xiuyuan remembered that dogs could not eat foods like grapes and chocolate.

"It's okay Commander, the Knight is not an ordinary dog, he will be fine."

Lu Xiuyuan thought about it and it made sense. The knight in front of him was no ordinary dog. To be more professional, he was a part of the ship's outfit, and it was not something that could be dealt with by just some grapes.

Hearing that the commander knew something about dogs, Helena asked, "Commander, do you like dogs very much?"

"I like it. My family used to have dogs, but they weren't any expensive breeds. They were just ordinary local dogs. Or maybe it's more formal to call them Chinese rural dogs."

While stroking the knight's dog's head, Lu Xiuyuan continued, "My mother told me that the dog was sent to my home a few days after I was born."

"When I was a kid, I was quite introverted and didn't have many playmates. Thanks to having a dog as a companion, I didn't feel so lonely."

"It likes to play hide-and-seek with me, and likes to hide in the narrow horn bumps..."

"In this way, the dog accompanied me through elementary school, junior high school, and high school..."

"What happened next?" Rafi asked.

"Later..." Lu Xiuyuan didn't know how to explain this to the little girl, especially to the immortal ship girl. He touched the knight's dog head and sighed:

"Then one day, it started playing hide-and-seek with me again. I looked in many places, in cardboard boxes, under the bed, and in the gaps between furniture and walls, but I couldn't find it..."

"Later I found out..." Lu Xiuyuan put one hand on his chest: "Later I found out that it was hidden in my heart."

Lafite nodded as if she understood, but the little girl didn't seem to quite understand what Lu Xiuyuan meant.

"Commander, we will always be with you." Helena said, looking at the knight, "And the knight too."

"Woof~" the knight responded.

After listening to Helena's words, Lu Xiuyuan felt warm and touched, but suddenly he felt a little melancholy and worried about the future.

Compared with human life, dog's life is too short, they can only accompany people for a part of life. When dying, dogs often choose to run away from home to avoid their bodies attracting predators and threatening the group.

What about yourself?

Lu Xiuyuan asked a soul-searching question.

Compared to the immortal shipgirls, my lifespan as a human is too short...

ps: Start patching to solve the lifespan issue.

143-Bite the Nuts

The more Lu Xiuyuan thought about it, the more worried he became. In the end, he simply stopped thinking about it to avoid adding to his worries.

At this time.

Suddenly, there was a crackling sound in the basketball hall, like the sound of breaking glass.

Outside the basketball hall, Lu Xiuyuan and Helena were startled when they heard the noise inside.

"What did Sister Cleveland and the others do...Why is there such a big commotion?"

Little Lafite was sleeping in Helena's lap in a daze. The sudden noise immediately woke up the little girl from all sleepiness.

"Hurry up and go in and take a look!"

Lu Xiuyuan stood up and quickly walked into the museum with Lafei and Helena.

On the basketball court, six players gathered under the backboard.

There was broken glass on the ground under his feet and a shattered backboard above his head.

Combining the situation at the scene and the movement just now, it is obvious what happened.

"Oh... sorry, I couldn't control my strength." The boyish Cleveland scratched the back of his head awkwardly.

However, her words of apology not only failed to bring everyone's forgiveness, but instead brought everyone's "admiration"?

Columbia, who has long orange-yellow hair, chewed gum and blew bubbles: "You are worthy of being the big sister of Cleveland!"

"You are worthy of being the Big Sister of Cleveland! You easily accomplished what we couldn't do."

"You are worthy of being the Big Sister of Cleveland! You easily accomplished what we couldn't do."

The remaining four members of the Cleveland class acted as repeaters.

"Wait, wait a minute, this isn't something that should be praised, right?"

Cleveland felt a little helpless.

Everyone looked at each other and laughed in unison, and the scene was suddenly filled with a happy atmosphere.

"What should we do now? Change the venue and continue playing?" someone asked.
