Chapter 140 Construction (Part 2)
"I'm not disappointed, but the future formation needs to be adjusted. After all, a battleship can do much more than a heavy cruiser. At least the firepower of our rear row is not weak at all now." Qin Ge said to Rodney.
"Indeed, Commander, including the ones here now, I have three battleships and two aircraft carriers. We should indeed increase the presence of other types of ships in the fleet." Rodney nodded and said to Qin Ge.
Qin Ge nodded, "So I can accept both destroyers and light cruisers this time."
"Then Commander, please go and get busy. After the construction is completed, we will go out to have a meal to celebrate." Guanghui said to Qin Ge.
"Of course." Qin Ge nodded and walked towards the builder again.
This time, Qin Ge took a mind cube and 600 units of supplies and put them into the light construction machine next to the heavy construction machine.
After pressing the start button, the builder began to make a loud noise. When it stopped, a time appeared on the builder's screen.
1:15:00!
Seeing this time, Qin Ge couldn't help but shook his head in amusement, "Sure enough, every time you build a ship, you may not be able to build the type of ship you want in your mind. This time should be the Leander-class cruiser and the Brooklyn-class cruiser, right?
But generally speaking, they are both very good cruisers of two levels. Let's build her first and then see who will be the one."
As he spoke, Qin Ge stepped forward and placed the quick-building tool in his hand into the groove of the builder. After pressing the start button next to it, the whole machine began to shake violently and made a rumbling sound.
Then, the door of the warehouse slowly opened a crack, and smoke spread out with purple light. Then, in Qin Ge's expectant eyes, they slowly grew larger and larger, the smoke gradually dissipated, and a figure with blue hair appeared in front of Qin Ge.
"Hello, Commander, I'm Helena. Searching for the enemy is my forte. Please... lead us to victory!" The blue-haired figure had purple eyes, which at this moment were filled with a hint of sadness, and spoke to Qin Ge.
Helena, a Brooklyn-class light cruiser, is the most powerful light cruiser in the White Eagle Navy. Due to the serious damage in the Pearl Harbor attack, it was repaired and the latest SG radar was installed.
This latest SG radar also became Helena's reliance, and made Helena the first ship to receive a collective commendation from the Navy. However, during the Battle of Kula Bay, Helena was hit by a torpedo and subsequently sank.
When Qin Ge saw Helena's sad eyes and thought about her life experiences, he suddenly understood why this girl was so sad.
"My name is Qin Ge, and I will be your commander from now on, so please rest assured, Helena, I will make full use of your strengths and lead our fleet to victory." Qin Ge said to Helena.
"Thank you, Commander. I will also work hard in future wars." Helena said to Qin Ge.
"Yes." Qin Ge nodded. "Next, I will take you to meet our companions who fought side by side with us. In the future, whether it is fighting or living together, we will have to be with them, so let's get to know them first."
"Yeah." Helena nodded.
Qin Ge brought her to the front of the crowd and introduced her to them, "This is White Eagle's Brooklyn-class light cruiser Helena. Her specialty is radar scanning, so in the future, we will have to rely on Helena's help in searching for the enemy.
And with her, you, Ayanami, don't have to rush out recklessly to collect the other party's location information."
"Welcome, Helena." Guanghui said with a smile. Being a gentle girl, it was easy for her to detect the sadness in Helena, so she immediately expressed her welcome to Helena.
"Thank you. " Helena said a little awkwardly.
Qin Ge saw Helena like this, fortunately he helped Helena introduce them, "This is the Royal Aircraft Carrier Glory, and the Centaur, this is one of the Royal Seven, Rodney, and this is the Royal Maid Belfast.
These three are the ship girls of Sakura Empire, namely Noshiro, Ayanami, and Hiei who can be considered your old friend and old rival.
And this one is the iron-blooded Prince Eugen, and the flagship of the Sardinian Empire, Veneto ."
"Hello." With Qin Ge's introduction, Helena could finally match the ship girls in front of her with their names, and she also had a certain familiarity with the fleet she was in.
Everyone nodded to Helena and greeted her very politely.
"Since we all know each other, and the school just got off for the holiday today, let's go out for a meal. Let's celebrate together as our three new companions join our fleet." Qin Ge said to everyone.
"Haha, Commander, do we have to celebrate even though our wish today has not been fulfilled?" Prince Eugen laughed.
"There's nothing we can do about it. No one can predict luck, and there's a saying that goes, 'Changes always happen faster than planned.'"
Although we didn't achieve the ideal configuration in mind, the addition of Rodney, Hiei and Helena once again enhanced the strength of our team.
Isn't this thing worth celebrating?" Qin Ge said to Prince Eugen with a smile.
"Of course it's worth it." Prince Eugen nodded and said.
"Then, let's go celebrate together first, and then we can assign a place to rest when we come back." Qin Ge nodded to everyone.
"Um."
As everyone nodded in agreement, Qin Ge led them out of the academy.
At this moment, the Prince of Wales knocked on Mikasa's door.
"Hmm? Dean, why did you think of me?" Mikasa said to the Prince of Wales with a smile.
"Mikasa, do we still have to be so unfamiliar with each other?" Prince of Wales said with a smile.
"That's right. Please come in, Wales." Mikasa nodded and said to the Prince of Wales, then made way for the door.
"Aren't you planning to go back to Sakura this year?" As soon as he entered the room and sat on the sofa, Prince of Wales asked Mikasa who was making tea for her.
"I don't go back home every year for the Donghuang Spring Festival, right?" Mikasa said with a smile, "Compared to the Sakura Empire, I still prefer to celebrate the New Year with everyone in the academy."
"Haha, so will you celebrate the New Year with Yixian and the others this year?" asked the Prince of Wales.
"We're not going this year. Aurora and I have made an appointment with Qin Ge to spend the New Year at his house." Mikasa brought the tea to Prince of Wales and said to her.
"Qin Ge and his ship girls will not leave the academy for the New Year this year?" Prince of Wales asked with some surprise.
"No, he is planning to hold something called the Spring Festival Gala to celebrate the Spring Festival with his ship girls." Mikasa said.
"Spring Festival Gala? Interesting." The Prince of Wales touched his chin and said with a smile.
