Five o'clock in the morning

Before the dawn shone on the sea, the boy had already gotten up early as usual. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Info has experienced a certain mutation in his mental power, and his need for sleep has been greatly reduced, and his work and rest time have also changed.

On the contrary to him, it is the ship girls who train intensively every day and consume mental power. Originally, they didn't have a high need for sleep, but they also needed to rest to regain their mental strength due to the fatigue caused by using the ship's equipment.

The boy sat quietly in front of the sofa in the hall, turning his gaze to the electronic light screen in front of him from time to time. Occasionally, you can see the trail of his fingertips, which is when he is flipping through and browsing some papers.

Since studying the ritual texts and mantras, the boy has had to look up more and more literature. Although his mentor was only a small part of the initial teaching, he was very interested.

In his spare time, the teenager will take out the text pictures he took with the electronic notebook, and carefully speculate and think about the previous content. Humanity has only a small part of this strange writing at the moment, and he has studied the part that the Admirals have repeated the most when using the sadhana.

The peace didn't last long, and soon the familiar voice of a teenager interrupted his train of thought.

"Admiral, good morning." and, as usual, waking up after Aritus was Veneto in room number two.

Noticing that it was Veneto who woke up, Arrites picked up the coffee pot and prepared coffee for two.

Perhaps it was due to Veneto's influence, or perhaps the boy himself liked the taste, and he was now accustomed to drinking coffee in the morning.

By the time Veneto had finished tidying up and changing into the college's blue and white uniform, she could already smell the rich aroma of coffee in the hall.

"It's a trouble for the Admiral every morning." Veneto picked up the coffee in front of him and thanked the boy like this.

"Actually, it's okay, after all, I woke up the earliest." The boy didn't seem to find it troublesome, and said after drinking half of it himself.

"About what the Admiral said yesterday......", Veneto began to recall some of yesterday's events as he gradually sobered up.

"It's still necessary to make contact with 'them,' ......," said the young man, knocking on the wooden table.

"I'm on the same page with the Admiral, and maybe there's something windfalling." Veneto knew Aritus the best, and was also the girl she had been with the longest, and it was because of this that she was more curious about that existence.

Perhaps not just extremely rare individuals with extraordinary abilities? Such speculation gave the two a new perspective on the world.

"Admiral~Morning~", Suzuya, who was full of vitality and didn't look like he had just woken up, was greeting the boy. Her hair also looked messy, and she quickly went to the bathroom.

"Suzuya unexpectedly got up early ......," Aritus said as she looked at the green-haired girl who had disappeared from sight.

Veneto turned his gaze to the five dormitories not far away, whose names indicated that they were inhabited.

"Feeling, it's a ......little more lively," Veneto said, putting his cup down, as if with some emotion.

"But I don't hate it...... The new companions are also reliable, and they are the strength that the Admiral can rely on. ”。 Although it felt more casual to be alone with the Admiral, she also hoped that her Admiral would have enough companions and strength, so that she could have confidence in the face of the deep sea.

"Today is a friendly match, and it will be hard for you later." , Arrites heard Veneto's evaluation, and also knew her important responsibility as a flagship, and said today's itinerary again.

"I've also watched the friendly match before, has the Admiral chosen the opponent? If you have one, you can do a little bit of preparation in advance. Of course, Veneto, as a flagship, also knew about this preview match early.

"At the moment, I'm choosing Kazama. If it is an acquaintance, the drill will not be too embarrassing, and the air defense effectiveness of the formation will be tested. The boy seems to have a plan.

In this session, there are really not many fleet forces that can confront him head-on on the water. If he wants to suppress his fleet in surface firepower, it is impossible to do it unless there are two battleship wives on the opposite side who are not bad at firepower, and at the moment he has not seen who has two battleship wives.

Naturally, there are only two reasons for this. The mental power required to summon the battleship ship is not low, although it can't be compared with the summoning of the aircraft carrier carrier, but it is still a hurdle for some admirals with weak spirits. Then there is the problem of resource consumption, and the few admirals he knows of who have battleships have not continued to summon capital ships.

As far as Veneto is concerned, her daily consumption is almost as large as that of Anne and Suzuya, and if there is another battleship wive, Aritus's resource consumption is quite staggering.

"It is indeed a rare opportunity to confront the power of aviation." , Veneto nodded, she herself had conducted air defense training, but it was only simulation training, and there were not even carrier-based aircraft that could practice.

Even at the Central Naval Academy, where Aritus is located, the aircraft carrier ships owned by the freshman admirals are extremely rare. Because of this, even the air defense exercises conducted by most of the shipwrecks could not get enough carrier-based aircraft to simulate, and you must know that even a few auxiliary ships that can release carrier-based aircraft have been included in the aviation training class, but the number of them has not exceeded 20.

"Good morning, Commander." While Alitus and Veneto were discussing this, De Moine seemed to wake up, along with Anne, who was usually a late riser.

"Good morning, Anne woke up early today." The boy looked a little surprised.

"Ah, I woke you up." Des Moines, who was combing his long blond hair, said.

“…… So, do you need breakfast? Alitus asked, considering the cost of training them yesterday. Of course, the breakfast here is naturally not carbohydrates and proteins, but the four resources of Ortegrine hydrogen.

"Last night there was a daily replenishment of resources." , Veneto replied first.

"Doesn't the Admiral need to eat anything in the morning? There's pudding in the fridge? Suzuya asked, already holding a cup of pudding, noticing his admiral.

"No need, when Anne and Des Moines are ready, they will go to the designated location on the first floor to meet." , Aritus said.

Looking at Suzuya, who had already solved the pudding in the cup, Arritheus was glad that the agricultural technology in this world was high enough that the price of food was not high......

…………

"There are so many people, ......," said the girl with blonde hair in a single ponytail and wearing the blue and white sailor skirt of the academy.

"After all, it's a friendly match once a month in the academy...... There should be six or seven hundred people to be exact......", the young man led the four girls behind him, standing in the hall on the first floor.

He had already sent the battle application to the academy's record sheet, and of course he had already booked the venue.

"Admiral? Let's go to the test site and wait, shall we? It seems too crowded here. After hearing Veneto's suggestion, Arrites thought hard and agreed.

By the time they arrived at the No. 14 water test site, they had already spotted several familiar figures from the pontoon stand.

It was Kazama, who lived in Room 1 in F32 and had a lot of contact with Aritus.

"You're here so early?" The two quickly came together, and Aritaus asked Kazama.

"Den-chan reminded me, but luckily I didn't miss the ...... to fill in the time," Kazama replied.

"Because the Admiral is stupid!" , is wearing a college blue and white sailor dress, a petite girl with brown hair and brown eyes shouted like this.

"We think the Admiral is a stupid ...... spoiled by a child," replied a light aircraft carrier with two flight decks.

"Ah, it's Sister Veneto!" , a girl with wheat-colored skin and a reddish-brown ponytail, seemed happy to see Veneto.

"It's a southwest wind, good morning." Veneto, of course, also noticed the southwesterly wind standing behind Kazama.

"Looks like it will take a while to ......," Aritus looked at the others sitting in the stands, at least a dozen more admirals, and they were all in front of them.

"Luckily, there are no other classes today, just friendly ......," Kazama said, glancing at the rising sun.

…………

"Sure enough, it's the last...... ......I knew I should have eaten breakfast," Kazama said from the pontoon podium, looking at the empty stands in the distance.

Perhaps because it was already noon, most of the people had left to watch the rest of the people's games, not even Kazama and Aritus.

"I'm not too hungry...... Well, there are still three minutes to prepare......", after seeing the time reminder, Aritaus extended his spiritual power and built a spiritual network with the four Veneto on the sea farther away.

He solved the construction of the spiritual network half a month ago, and at this time, it has undergone several improvements, and its structure and stability are much better than before.

"But I'm under a lot of pressure to compete with you......," Kazama thought about Aritus' luxurious fleet and was quite concerned about it.

"Long Xiang is already one of the few light aircraft carrier mothers unique to us this year...... It's not that you don't know how strong the air supremacy of aircraft carriers is......", Aritus emphasized the important role of light aircraft carriers.

Most of the ship's anti-aircraft firepower is not very good, and most of the admirals who fight against Kazama will have a lot of pressure in the subsequent battles because it is impossible to seize air supremacy.

"You don't know that Des Moines and Anne took the first and second terms of the cruiser's air defense drills, do you......", Kazama said helplessly, recalling the incident.

"But this exercise has special preferential treatment for aircraft carriers...... The power of anti-aircraft artillery is weakened by training shells, and it is still difficult to penetrate carrier-based aircraft. Alitus said after quickly adjusting his mental network.

"Two, there's only one minute left, please get ready quickly." , The referee standing behind the two reminded seriously.

As the countdown ended, Aritus and Kazama quickly gave different orders to their own ship.

Enable Radar Search...... Unleash the reconnaissance plane! ”

After Alitus confirmed the movements of Veneto and the others through the spiritual network, his brow furrowed slightly.

Kazama's advantage is precisely that he can rely on the air supremacy that light aircraft carriers can seize, and he can shoot down the water reconnaissance planes released by his side.

But Arritheus still had to do so. The detection capability of the radar is somewhat interfered with by radiation, and the reconnaissance aircraft is still a very useful option in good sea conditions.

Moreover, when his own reconnaissance plane is discovered, he can also spot enemy aircraft, and if he is lucky enough to avoid it, he may even be able to spot the position of the opponent's fleet.

With the field of view bonus of the reconnaissance planes, five minutes later a certain pair of reconnaissance planes spotted a group of enemy planes in one direction.

"Quickly evacuate the reconnaissance aircraft." , Arrites and several shipwives had the same idea, and the reconnaissance plane was quickly evacuated after being discovered.

"Enemy fighters are faster than our flying columns!" , Veneto issued such an urgent reminder.

"Can't you avoid it all?" , Aritus did not want to plant all the reconnaissance planes here.

"No, my SC Seahawk can fly faster than the other party's." , Des Moines' voice came from the spiritual network.

"Des Moines' reconnaissance planes quickly withdrew, and the others remained in combat formation." , Arrites made such a decision.

It is not that the reconnaissance aircraft does not have combat capabilities at all, but compared to full-time carrier-based fighters, its performance lags too far behind.

Soon the enemy group was divided into three teams and strangled the remaining ten reconnaissance planes.

It was a one-sided battle, and only Des Moines' reconnaissance planes escaped the pursuit of enemy fighters with high speed.

"It's really trouble......some to have no air supremacy," Arrites commented.

"The radar can also confirm the position of the fleet, but there is always a certain deviation." , Anne, who gave up the control of the carrier-based aircraft, said.

"The reconnaissance plane of Des Moines will not be recovered for the time being, and it will continue to be in a cruising state." , Arritheus thought about it seriously and still asked Des Moines to release the reconnaissance plane that had escaped the catastrophe.

The own fleet, which has lost part of its long-range reconnaissance capability, has temporarily lost its information superiority over distant airspace and territorial waters.

Aretus thought about it for a while, and instructed the ship's mothers:

"Change the annular air defense formation, with the flagship as the core to maintain course.". Generally speaking, the correct way to seize air supremacy is to seize it by aircraft, but in the absence of his own fighters to lose air supremacy, Arrites can only prioritize air defense to avoid damage to the capital ship.

And this also made him understand the importance of an aircraft carrier to the fleet.

Just the aviation power provided by a light aircraft carrier can bring a lot of trouble to your side. An important element of naval warfare is the acquisition of timely information, and the power from the air is a manifestation of its great influence on this element.
