Azur Lane: The Tragic Admiral’s Azur Life

Chapter 1020 Ingraham's 'Discovery'

"These things are much more interesting than we first thought, Commander."

Early in the morning, Yang Sikang had just finished his breakfast when he was pulled to Ingraham's studio, where she had been waiting for half an hour. There was an entire wall filled with various samples, most of which were small things made by Ingraham herself.

Ingraham skillfully moved the suspicious equipment and a distinctive pistol on the table to the side, and carefully took something out of the safe on the table.

This is a cube shaped like a mind cube, and the entire surface structure is similar to the mind cube.

But the material of this cube is a new type of metal made by Yang Sikang using those special machines. It has excellent ductility and recovery properties. This thing that looks like a mind cube is actually a special container used to store some dangerous items that require a stable environment.

For example, a mind cube used for experiments.

The container was carefully opened, and when the Mind Cube inside appeared in front of Yang Sikang, he immediately felt some subtle reactions from the Mind Cube in his pocket.

Although this reaction disappeared quickly, Yang Sikang was sure that he was not wrong.

"Relying on the research data from the royal family, Yubari and I tried to replicate their research process. With Bai Ze's calculation assistance and the replacement of our materials, we got something like this."

"After testing, it is difficult to determine whether this Mind Cube can still be used normally as a Mind Cube for construction. However, if it is used as the material core of a ship's equipment, it can have quite amazing effects."

Ingraham said as he turned the container over, fixed it to the ground, and then placed the unstable Mind Cube in his hand on the top of the container.

The next second, several claws popped out from the top of the container to secure the Mind Cube, then a metal cage flipped up to wrap the entire Mind Cube, and then several projection screens appeared around the container, showing the results of the calculations.

"Look, this set of data here, and this set here, and this one here. These things that the Royal is studying have great potential. These things are much more interesting than we thought at first."

Yang Sikang looked at the points pointed out by Ingraham, but his attention soon shifted to several other inconspicuous sets of data.

He picked out those sets of data separately and then gave them to Bai Ze for calculation.

About two minutes later, Bai Ze's calculation results were fully presented in front of the two.

The first part was just as Ingraham thought. It was used to make ship equipment, which could effectively improve the basic performance of the ship equipment and greatly increase the flexibility of the ship equipment. However, as the calculation progressed, the negative effects of such a mind cube began to increase with the time and intensity of use.

More susceptible to damage, more prone to problems, and even prone to breaking down during combat.

Ingraham frowned when he saw the end. According to the calculations made by Bai Ze based on these data, the result was extremely bad.

After all, ship equipment is of great significance to the ship girls. If there is a problem with it, especially during a battle, it can be a serious crisis that could be fatal.

"That's the thing, Ingraham."

Yang Sikang shrugged:

"If we fill these sets of data back in..."

He put the several sets of data that he had just picked out back to their original positions, and then asked Bai Ze to carry out a new round of calculations.

This calculation took only half a minute, because the second round of calculation had reached the end when the previous calculation was only one-third completed.

It's a mess.

"But, why is this happening?"

Ingraham was somewhat puzzled.

"This is different from the result I asked Bai Ze to calculate before..."

Yang Sikang nodded and said:

“It’s normal to be different because there is a disturbing factor here.”

Yang Sikang raised his finger and pointed at himself, then said:

"I have a certain reaction to the Mind Cube in my body, and I am used to carrying the Mind Cube with me. The Mind Cube in this experiment has been much more sensitive. When you took it out just now, I felt that it had a brief effect on the Mind Cube in my pocket, and this effect is generally two-way."

When Yang Sikang said this, Ingraham already understood everything.

"I see. I hadn't noticed that before. Well, this thing might be useful under experimental conditions, but if it is put into practice..."

"All the scenarios we need it in are unlikely to be free from interference from other Mind Cubes, so the actual value of this thing is extremely poor. But this is to be expected. There are many unstable factors in their imitations, and most of them are just random."

"Oh, what a pity. I thought that if we could extract some of the stuff, it would help our research a little, but now it seems that there is no hope."

Ingraham's excitement disappeared in an instant. She sat on the chair helplessly, her whole face full of dissatisfaction with the thing in front of her.

"It is precisely because what they did was so messy that it is meaningful for us to discover it in time. However, this thing may not be useless. The key lies in how to use it. And how did they discover these things?"

"I know what this means. Commander, do you want to hear it?"

Yang Sikang paused and looked at Ingraham in surprise, who smiled slightly:

"It's nothing, actually. When we went to take their information and equipment, I found that some of the equipment was similar to what we used before, so I gave them some suggestions. Later, when Kewei and George V went to inquire about the news, they heard some interesting content."

"Is this okay?"

"Haha, is that good luck? But it could also be that they hope to still be able to participate in these studies. After all, as a researcher, I think I can understand their thinking. It's definitely not a good feeling to have something you've been researching for several years taken away just when you're about to see results."

"But the question is, what do you think?"

Yang Sikang asked:

"Studying with the Royal Family is no problem, but I can't leave you here to help them, so how to choose is a problem. What do you think?"

"Well, I think we can finish some of the main content first, such as this part. What do you think?"

Yang Sikang watched Ingraham take out a prepared plan from the drawer with ease, and he immediately laughed.

"Okay, no matter what the plan is, I agree first."
