Give Zongman some collapse shock

"It's like the difference between the magic test and the technology test."

Jiang Chen sighed again, magic is magic, and technology is technology.

Compared to Magic Line, Azure KanColle is the one that truly started with technology.

However, although technology is good, it is not as magical as magic.

"Iona, why don't you try to become a ship girl like Taiho?"

Jiang Chen took out the Mind Cube, his face full of anticipation.

"Kanmusume?"

Iona tilted her head.

"That's right. Not only can you freely retract and extend the hull, but you can also transform it into ship armor for combat. Using a smaller size, you gain greater power and maneuverability. You're no longer limited to the massive hull. You yourself are the ultimate combat force."

This is another absolute advantage of Azure KanColle.

Boarding battle.

As long as they board the ship, the Azure Ship Girl has almost no means of counterattack.

Chapter 207: There are also differences between the ship girls.

Iona couldn't understand the benefits Jiang Chen mentioned.

From what Iona heard, Jiang Chen's meaning was probably that he was flying a fighter jet just fine, but suddenly one day his superior invited him to switch to being an Iron Man pilot, and the firepower would not change much.

No, a more vivid description would be that she wants to transform her beloved fighter jet into Iron Man.

Yi 401 is her, and she is Yi 401.

Therefore, to her, this was a very rude and even absurd order. How could one change one's race just by meeting someone? Even though the person was a superior, Iona's first reaction was to resist.

Of course, the well-behaved submarine wouldn't refuse her commander, so she kept quiet.

She just stared at Jiang Chen quietly, as if saying: I am your ship and I will not refuse any order. If you have the heart to do it to me, then go ahead. I will not resist, but I will cry out in pain.

"Well, maybe after you get familiar with the ship girls, you will change your decision."

Jiang Chen put away the Mind Cube with a look of regret.

An hour later, the Sakura Empire shipgirls from all over the world gathered...

"Boom-"

Iona was beaten badly.

At this moment, the girl was thrown against her own ship by the immense force, making a dull thud. Her expression remained emotionless, but a hint of doubt about life lingered in her eyes.

Opposite her was another girl with nothing, nothing at all. Her long white hair was tied into a ponytail. She was wearing a sleeveless sailor suit, a pair of red and white mechanical rabbit headdresses on her head, and she was holding a huge ship-slashing sword in her hand.

There is no way to fight back!

"In the exercise, Ling Bo won..."

Ling Bo carefully put away his ship suit, feeling a little guilty.

This doesn't count as bullying newcomers, right?

According to what Sister Dafeng said, destroyers versus submarines, is that fair...?

"Commander, Ling Bo has restrained his strength."

"Well, Ling Bo, thank you for your hard work."

Jiang Chen nodded, soothing the girl's anxiety.

It was clear that Ling Bo had indeed shown some mercy during the exercise, showing great discretion and not injuring Iona at all. Even so, the situation was still a one-sided crushing defeat.

It’s not that Iona lacks firepower.

On the contrary, erosion torpedoes pose a very high threat to Lingbo, and once they hit the hull, it will inevitably be damaged.

But you have to hit the target too.

The overwhelming victory in battle was due to Ling Bo's extreme maneuverability. Once a shipgirl manifests her ship suit, she gains the power of the ship itself. Neither speed nor mass is compromised. Furthermore, the transformed Ling Bo can now utilize some magical powers, making flight a natural instinct.

Even the magic route itself can perform unscientific operations, such as materializing ship equipment, obtaining the mass of the ship, and flying at high speed on a carrier aircraft.

It's very hypocritical. I think I'm light and I'm really light. When needed, I can rush like a battleship.

While maintaining agility and air superiority, he engaged in rapid close combat with a naval slash. Torpedoes were unable to lock onto him, and anti-aircraft weapons, with their low damage, were simply ignored. Klein's position was shattered by the blade's sharp edge. Barely two minutes into the exercise, the battle descended into close combat, and it was unfolding on the Iona's hull, leaving him no chance to even dive.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Iona has no power to resist.

Hai Wu's mental model has physical functions far exceeding those of humans, and from Klein's perspective, it can change its form and be used as a weapon. If the computing power is sufficient, it is not impossible to COS Infinite Blade System.

However, Iona obviously does not have that kind of computing power.

Moreover, the mental model's physical functions are useless, and it is no different from paper in front of the ship girl.

"Iona, how do you feel?"

"Is this the ship girl?"

Iona couldn't help but waver.

Just now, Ling Bo’s strikes were all critical hits.

She imagined that if she also had the same flexibility as Ling Bo, and her mass would not be reduced, even if she only used her body functions to fight, each blow would have an impact force roughly equal to that of the entire ship.

Maybe a small submarine, under limited circumstances, can also attack a large battleship head-on... no, even a super battleship!

Although there is no particular obsession with pursuing power, as a weapon of war, it is natural to hope to play as much of a role as possible.

"I understand. I will consider becoming a ship girl."

The girl looked dazed as she was led to stand up by Jiang Chen, and she seemed to have not yet recovered from the previous exercise.

The ship girls who were watching started discussing it.

"I see. If we use ship armor in combat, we'll have a greater advantage against the Sea Mist Fleet."

"Wow~ I was limited by conventional thinking before, and subconsciously used hull against hull. Last time I used ship armor to fight, maybe I could have successfully captured the Kongo in the sea fog."

Amagi did not agree with what the ship girls said.

The sickly fox wagged its tail, interrupting everyone's beautiful plans.

"Everyone, I'm sorry to hear that while ship armor can be quite effective against Sea Mist, fighting against a fully-organized fleet won't be as easy as Ling Bo's battle against Iona. Submarines can't deliver a saturation attack, and large battleships, even super-battleships, won't let us get close. Sea Mist's technology is powered by computing power, and if we target super-battleships, then Klein alone won't be able to easily defeat them."

The Sea Fog Fleet can be roughly divided into four gears.

The highest level of super battleship.

A second-tier battleship.

Then came the heavy cruisers.

Further down, there are battleships where mental models would not normally be born.

There are naturally differences in armament and fundamental computing power among the four levels of warships.

If we measure the super battleship by Iona's standards... well, it doesn't seem impossible.

Jiang Chen coughed, attracting the girls' attention.

"Let's not discuss our combat capabilities for now. When we engage in combat, everyone will naturally assess them. The difficulty we face right now is that the Sea Mist Fleet is avoiding us for some unknown reason."

Very strange.

According to the performance of the Sea Fog Fleet in the plot, they wanted to expel even a small wooden boat from the sea except for the fog, but they actually tolerated the Sakura Empire Fleet that took the initiative to provoke trouble.

but it does not matter.

With Iona here, and Jiang Chen's erosion power, they can attack people along the network cable.

"Iona, I remember there's an independent communication system between the fogs, right? Can you contact the other sea fogs?"

"no problem."

Iona nodded obediently and started communicating the concept of the Mist Fleet.

This is Haiwu's quantum communication technology, which can convey large amounts of information instantly and accurately, without relying on media, and achieve ultra-long-distance communication.

It is even possible to materialize one's own image in a quantum communication network and complete "face-to-face" communication.

Sensing the information fluctuations, Jiang Chen used his erosion power to forcibly hack in.

At the same time, a huge warship was sailing alone in an unknown sea.

The sea fog's super battleship, and also the only flagship at present, is Musashi.

A petite girl wearing a beret, with long silver hair, closed her eyes, feeling the cold sea breeze, and has become accustomed to the feeling of loneliness.

Although it was the flagship, it did not lead the other warships of the Sea Mist... To be more precise, at least on the surface, it was alone.

Suddenly, Musashi frowned.

"Um, Misty contacted me, this is... 401?"

Of course she knew that sea fog, borrowing her sister's core, was just a submarine.

Without hesitation, consciousness connected to the quantum network.

Looking at the white-haired Iona, Musashi couldn't suppress the disgust in his heart and wanted to use his computing power to lock the other party's coordinates.

but……

"Gui'an, Haiwu's flagship, or should I add one of them?"

Chapter 208 Then we can only ignore the ethics of martial arts.

"Humanity?"

Musashi was surprised by the unexpected meeting.

How can humans access the communication network that is unique to fog?

Did 401 bring this in? Or was it some newly developed technology by humans? Impossible. Even Yamato couldn't do such a thing. As for human new technology... Musashi would rather believe in an alien invasion than believe humans have this technology.

After all, since the great naval battle, the image of humans as punching bags has been deeply rooted in people's minds.

"Of course, but I don't represent any faction of humanity in this world. Speaking of which, we should have crossed paths before. Should I remind you of the battleship in the sky?"

Sensing Musashi's hostility, Jiang Chen blocked Iona behind him.

Compared to being unable to do anything as a puppet in the communication network, the armed forces are more interested in Jiang Chen.

"It turns out to be you."

It was a bit unexpected, but also seemed reasonable.

On the contrary, Musashi did not have much hostility towards the Sakura Empire fleet, and his attitude could be described as friendly.

"Is your reaction so calm, without a single word of blame?"

Jiang Chen couldn't help but be stunned.

It was true that the Sakura Empire fleet attacked Kongo in the Umigiri, and it was also true that they captured several of Umigiri's light aircraft carriers. Logically, a hostile relationship should have been established.

"Why should I blame you?"

"Hostile acts... Let me state in advance that we are not sea fog and have nothing to do with the so-called naval code."

"I know you are not fog. You are similar to us, but different in nature."

Musashi nodded and immediately explained, "But our interests are aligned. You accomplished what I wanted to do, so you're companions in another sense. Besides, there's no need for me to provoke a mysterious enemy."

The Naval Code is the source of sea fog.

All members of the Sea Mist Fleet, act in accordance with the orders of the Naval Code.

The super battleship Musashi was the one who received the Naval Code's orders. Of course, a small incident occurred along the way, and the Naval Code was lost... Or rather, no one knew what the Naval Code was from the beginning to the end. Perhaps it was a mechanical artifact, a testing ground, or just a string of code.

One day, the Naval Code no longer issues orders, and the super battleship becomes an 'agent', still carrying out the orders of the Naval Code.

The only valid directive of the Naval Code that needs to be maintained at present is to expel humans from the surface of the sea.

After the loss of the Naval Code, the Super Battleship gained a certain degree of freedom, and Musashi experienced some things in the meantime, which led to his extreme hatred of humans and complete disappointment in them.

In short, in Musashi's view, humans are a chaotic and contradictory species.
