Chapter 353: Sudden Change of Attitude
Su Xia has grown a lot these days.
In any case, the time was too short for him to become an excellent admiral and know the origin, technical characteristics, ship structure, history, etc. of each warship. He only knew the warships corresponding to the ship girls that appeared in a certain game.
For example, battleships such as Yamato and Musashi, even if they did not appear as shipgirls in the game, they appeared as deep-sea flagships, and Su Xia still knew about them. However, the Conqueror did not appear as a shipgirl or a deep-sea flagship, which made people a little confused.
Su Xia put down his phone, tapped lightly on the laptop keyboard on the desk with his fingers to wake up the laptop, slid the mouse to open the browser, searched for Conqueror on the web, trying to find out what the Conqueror was all about.
There are two entries on the encyclopedia.
It is impossible for so many admirals to discuss so heatedly over a battleship of more than 6,000 tons.
Since it is not the battleship of only more than 6,000 tons, it must be the Conqueror, the blueprint ship.
As the third ship of the Lion-class battleship, the main purpose of this class is to replace the previous generation of King George V-class battleships in order to solve the problem of the main gun caliber being too small. If it is successfully built, it will definitely be a powerful battleship and qualified to be the center of everyone's discussion.
Su Xia picked up the phone again and looked through the history records, but didn't get any useful information at all. She put the phone down, leaned back on the computer chair, and held the back of her head with both hands.
"It's already twelve o'clock, Admiral, haven't you gone to the cafeteria after get off work?" Victory returned to the office from the library with two books in her arms. She made a joke, which was what L20 always said, "If you are not active in eating, you have a problem with your thinking."
"I'm waiting for you to come back so we can go together." Su Xia smiled, "I feel like my meals have no taste when you're not here."
The admiral in front of him became more and more scumbag, and dared to say anything. Where did the innocent boy go? Although he knew it was a joke, he still cared a little. Victory said expectantly: "You should say this to your wedding ship. They like to hear it. I am not your wedding ship."
Hints, crazy hints.
Su Xia said excitedly: "Of course I know. I told them that."
Victory stared at Su Xia, not knowing whether the man was really stupid or just pretending to be ignorant. He curled his lips and said, "Poor ship girl, knowing that the admiral is just sweet-talking, the man said that to everyone, deceiving himself and hypnotizing himself."
"I really mean it."
"Do you always like the sincerity of an eighteen-year-old girl?"
"Victory, you are getting better at complaining..." Su Xia said, and saw the computer screen from the corner of his eye. He realized that now was not the time to complain, "Victory, do you know that?"
"What is that?" said the Victory. "Don't speak half-sentences."
"It's about the battleship Conqueror."
"The battleship Conqueror?" said the Victory. "Which Conqueror do you mean? Is there any problem?"
Su Xia shared the news he had just learned in the admiral group.
After hearing what he said, Victory frowned slightly and said, "You said that the Conqueror, the third Lion-class ship, has come to the Ship Headquarters?"
"Anyway, that's what our admiral group said... I don't know the specific situation, so I wanted to ask you."
"I stay in the garrison every day. Apart from the people in the garrison, I only have the contact information of a few people I knew before, such as Ella. I basically don't contact them unless there is something important. I don't know if you ask me." Victory suddenly raised his head and looked at Su Xia with squinted eyes. "Why, Admiral, do you have any idea about the Conqueror?"
Su Xia replied: "I don't have any idea... I just saw that the admiral group was chatting enthusiastically, and I wanted to know the details of the situation."
Victory said, "You can give Ella a call. She must know the situation."
"Yes." Su Xia picked up the phone, opened the address book, found Ella's number and called.
Seeing Su Xia holding the phone to her ear and walking to the floor-to-ceiling window, Shengli walked to L20 who was still reading a book and asked, "How is L20 reading? Do you have any questions?" The book L20 was reading was recommended by her and was conducive to L20's growth.
L20 told all the problems she encountered.
Victory said: "It's hard to explain in a short time. Let's talk about it slowly in the afternoon."
Victory noticed that Su Xia had finished her call and put down her phone. She was also a little curious and asked, "Admiral, you called Ella. How was it? What did she say?"
Su Xia said, "That's true... A new battleship, the Conqueror, has recently arrived at the Kanmusu Headquarters. It's the third Lion-class ship that just woke up from the sea and doesn't have an admiral yet. After hearing about the Conqueror, many admirals have been going to the Kanmusu Headquarters to salvage the ship, but all have failed."
Su Xia paused and smiled: "She also recommended that I try it."
"So Admiral, do you want to give it a try?" asked Victory.
"How can I put it... so many admirals have tried to salvage the ship but failed. I don't think I can succeed. Ella recommended me to give it a try... sincerely, she still wants to see me laugh at her, to see me get humiliated. I can't guarantee it." Su Xia said, "It is important for people to know themselves. I don't know what advantages I have over others, I am handsome, knowledgeable, capable, and good at talking. What can I have that the conqueror would appreciate?"
Su Xia really didn't have any expectations, there were already enough people in the garrison. Of course, she didn't object.
The Victory said, "You are good at nothing. The Conqueror will certainly not like you. As for Lexington, Missouri, Prince of Wales, Enterprise, Bismarck... Everyone likes you so much, it must be because they are blind and stupid."
Su Xia shook her head, not knowing how to explain some things, and said, "A little bit... But I will work hard to become an admiral worthy of everyone."
Victory hesitated to speak, but decided to forget it and said, "Does that mean the admiral is not going to salvage the ship?"
Su Xia pondered for a moment and said, "If the Ship Girl's headquarters is closer to the garrison, it wouldn't hurt to go over and try. The Ship Girl's headquarters is too far away, and it takes so long to fly there..." A message reminder sounded suddenly, he picked up his phone and looked at it, then closed it immediately, "Just think about it, as an admiral, if I don't try to save a Ship Girl when I meet her, will I be looked down upon and laughed at by others?"
"Even if I don't have that much charm... I tried, I worked hard, but still failed. I can do whatever I can and leave it to fate. There's nothing I can do. I'm afraid of failure and I'm unwilling to even try. I'm afraid before the battle. It's not good to say it out loud." Su Xia took two steps and sat down gently on the desk. "Think about it, the garrison is a bit far from the KanColle headquarters, but it's also fast to get there by Chinook."
"There's more," Su Xia lowered her head and looked at the snack plate on the desk, and picked up a piece of crispy candy. "Our garrison is pretty strong, and the conquerors are not weak either... Anyway, one more combat power is definitely not a disadvantage, and which garrison would complain about having too many ship girls? It seems that no one would complain about having too much money."
"There's another reason." Su Xia said, "I think Shi must be looking forward to having a younger sister, right?"
Facing Su Xia's sudden change of attitude, after Su Xia finished speaking, Victory reached out to him and asked, "Admiral, can I see your phone ?"
"Why are you looking at my phone?" Su Xia asked.
"I just want to take a look." Victory asked, "Is that okay?"
"Okay." Su Xia picked up the phone, unlocked it with her fingerprint, and handed it to Victory.
Victory took the phone and skillfully opened the chat software, only to see the message that Ella had just sent to Suxia. It was a picture, a picture of the Conqueror.
The conqueror was pictured wearing casual clothes with his blond hair tied into a low ponytail.
As expected of the lion’s sister, she is really big and generous.
Why did the admiral suddenly change his tone... I see. I finally understand.
Victory slowly looked towards Su Xia, raised his cell phone and showed him the photo of the Conqueror, meaning - I know everything.
Su Xia remained calm.
