Chapter 15 Construction Preparation
The construction room is the place that the Azur Lane Commander Academy students pay the most attention to every day , followed by the training ground. As for why they pay attention to this place, it goes without saying that this place carries the dreams and tears of many commanders. It is clear who is European and who is African.
However, Qin Ge was not very clear about the news spread in the commander's circle, but he was also very excited. As a person who studies various battle and tactical theories, who would not be excited to have a battleship of his own, and in the form of a girl?
"Haha, it seems you are looking forward to it." Prince of Wales smiled as he looked at Qin Ge walking beside her.
"Of course, big cannons and huge ships are every man's dream, not to mention that this dream is preceded by the word 'Ship Girl'." Qin Ge answered without any concealment.
"Haha, you don't hide it." The Prince of Wales laughed, "However, if you don't have a certain level of affection with your ship girl, don't make any moves on her."
"Ah?" Qin Ge blushed, "I'm a decent person! I won't touch a girl."
"Oh?" Prince of Wales looked at Qin Ge who was becoming a little shy and said, "Have you never been in love?"
"Uh... please don't say it in such a surprised tone. Isn't it strange to have never been in love?" Qin Ge said speechlessly.
"It's not strange, you just look kind of cute." The Prince of Wales teased with a smile.
"Uh..." Qin Ge stopped talking. He had rarely come into contact with girls since he was a child. Moreover, at that time, the Naval Command Academy was mostly full of boys, and there were very few girls. Therefore, when talking about this kind of relationship between men and women, he was still instinctively shy.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. The construction room is in front. I've brought your Rubik's Cube and supplies to you. Tell me, which type of ship do you want to build first?" Prince of Wales said, pointing to a building in front.
Qin Ge paused for a moment, then said to the Prince of Wales, "Light cruiser or battleship."
"Oh, didn't you say before that aircraft carriers are the most important? Why do we have to build light cruisers and battleships first now?" asked the Prince of Wales with a smile.
"Aircraft carriers are indeed important, but if they are alone, they cannot create a big advantage, and sometimes their survivability is not as good as some destroyers. But if it is an aircraft carrier in a fleet, it is a different story. With destroyers to transmit the target position of the opponent, and then use carrier-based aircraft to carry out long-range destructive strikes, if the opponent counterattacks, light cruisers, heavy cruisers and battleships will all be her powerful shields! And at this time, her capabilities can be maximized." Qin Ge explained.
The Prince of Wales nodded. "So you are not going to build an aircraft carrier now, but wait until the fleet reaches a certain size before building an aircraft carrier?"
"Yes, so the best choice now is a light cruiser or a battleship. The light cruiser has a powerful radar system and sonar system. It can detect underwater submarines and distant enemies. The powerful anti-aircraft firepower can also minimize the opponent's aircraft carrier's attack on us. And it has stronger firepower than the destroyer, so it is the best choice. As for the battleship, it is very easy to understand. All enemy warships that appear in front of the radar are the targets of the battleship." Qin Ge looked at the Prince of Wales and said.
"It seems that you are very rational now, and you have a very accurate understanding of what you lack. Then I don't need to give you any advice. Since you have your own considerations, then just do as you wish." Prince of Wales said to Qin Ge with a smile. She agreed very much with Qin Ge's understanding.
"Thank you, Dean." Qin Ge said modestly.
"No need. This is your own decision. I'm just asking. Let's go. We'll be there after we go up this staircase." The Prince of Wales smiled as he looked at the staircase in front of him.
"yes!"
In fact, the construction room might as well be called the construction hall. This was Qin Ge’s first thought when he walked into the construction room, because what he saw was a neat row of columnar devices.
The Prince of Wales walked to the center of the construction room and said to Qin Ge, "Pick a construction device that you like."
"Um... these construction machines all look the same. Is it okay to just say which one you like or dislike?" Qin Ge asked doubtfully.
"Haha, that's right. It's precisely because these builders all look the same that I asked you to choose one that you like. Otherwise, if a few mind cubes are sent down and no ship girls are built, then don't blame the builder." Prince of Wales teased Qin Ge with a smile.
"Well, don't worry, I won't do that kind of thing." Qin Ge said to the Prince of Wales, "I don't believe in fate. If I did, I would have died a long time ago and would not be alive today, so any channel is fine."
"Haha, you are very courageous. Not bad." Prince of Wales said with a smile, then took out a box from the ship's space and placed it on the ground. "10 Mind Cubes, 7,500 supplies, and five quick construction tools are all in the box."
Qin Ge nodded to the Prince of Wales, picked up the box at her feet and walked to the nearest builder. Following the instructions on the builder, he placed a Mind Cube and 600 supplies in the builder. Looking at the builder's hatch gradually closing, he pressed the start button on the builder.
With a loud noise from the builder, the entire machine started up. For a moment, flashes of light like lightning flashed from the hatch of the builder, and this reaction lasted for half a minute before stopping.
At this moment, Prince of Wales and Qin Ge both looked towards the top of the builder's hatch, because if the construction was successful, a row of time would appear here, which was the construction time required for the ship girl.
The screen on top of the builder suddenly jumped, and a time appeared on it: 1:20:00.
"Does this mean success?" Qin Ge turned his head and looked at the Prince of Wales who had a blank expression on his face.
"Congratulations, as long as the time appears, it means you have succeeded! 1:20:00, this time is definitely the time for the light cruiser." Wales said speechlessly, "I remember this time point should be the Arethusa class, Kawauchi class, Leipzig class and Agano class."
"It doesn't matter, as long as it's a light cruiser!" Qin Ge said excitedly, then he picked up the quick construction tool in the box and put it into the groove under the builder. After putting it in place, he directly pressed the acceleration button...
