After coming out, Lilia Bamond, Cato Miroloda, and the other five were still waiting outside. Seeing the three of them coming out, Cato hurriedly greeted him: "How is it?" Did it work? ”

"Hmm."

"How does it feel?"

"My head hurts a little, the whole person is light, it's okay, as long as you concentrate, it's not difficult. Come on! ”

There is a feeling that classmates in high school ask each other about their test scores, which makes Xu Zhonglin feel both distant and fresh.

Cato walked in with the sappers, and Lilia came to Xu Zhonglin again, this time with six ship girls standing behind the female tyrant.

"I'm sorry last time, I didn't mean that."

"It's okay Admiral Barmond, I don't care about that. Is this His Excellency Prince Eugen? ”

Xu Zhonglin looked at a blue-haired ship lady opposite, the girl was very tall, she even looked a little strong, very heroic and beautiful, it seemed to be the consistent style of the German ship girl. This is another great discovery of the year - the prototype ship, the heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen.

In the eye of hell, the evaluation goes like this:

Heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen: Prototype ship, qualification S, after the Seydlitz, another German immortal. With the luck of the dark, the combat effectiveness is super strong.

Xu Zhonglin admits that he is now so jealous that he explodes! The Eyes of Hell really acknowledged Prince Eugen's luck! Metaphysics really holds! This could have been her own ship! But after thinking about it carefully, especially the joyful expressions of Princess Sissi and Teresa when they played with the core, their hearts calmed down.

If Xu Zhonglin didn't have the eye of hell, this transaction would definitely be a big loss for him, a hundred Franz Joseph I-class cruisers can't catch up with a single Prince Eugen, but since it's a fair deal, you and I are willing, people are really right, and he has no resentment.

For this Prinz Eugen, the entire Canary Islands are crazy with joy, and Admiral Bamond even asked the ship's mother to send out invitations, and many old friends are coming one after another, and a grand celebration will be held tonight.

After the two sides introduced each other and exchanged politeness, Sissi and Minas exchanged their respective communication codes, and Xu Zhonglin took the initiative to ask: "Are you here today to contract these two?" ”

"Just call me Lilia, I'm going to contract Minas today, and Eugen will have to wait for half a year."

Made! I really envy this kind of local tyrant who lines up for a contract. Think about yourself, it's tragic to be rejected several times.

"Okay, Lilia, congratulations, I have to say, when I first became a newcomer, you were building a legend step by step."

Lilia, a tiger girl, actually blushes, and is very cute: "Zhonglin, you are modest, the owner of the victory pocket watch can become a great admiral, and my father also has one, usually you can be careful, and you don't let me see it." ”

"But you have to live first, don't you?"

"Yes, so, I would like to give you drawings of the Brooklyn-class light cruisers, as well as drawings of the London-class heavy cruisers. Don't get me wrong, I'm just happy and want to find a friend to share this joy. ”

Xu Zhonglin has the drawings, but how to take them out is a trouble, and Lilia's suggestion can solve a lot of trouble.

"Thank you, these are exactly what I need, you are such a good friend, I will come to you if I need it and promise not to leak it."

"Don't friends use 'you'?"

"Yes."

Lilia took the initiative to open her arms, and Xu Zhonglin went up to hug each other and kissed each other on each cheek.

Back at the residence, Teresa was a little excited: "Admiral, do you really want to transform it into a London-level?" ”

"No, it's Brooklyn."

"Why?"

Will I tell you, this class of cruisers is super bullish, and even participated in the Battle of the Falklands in 82?

"Firepower, protection, cost-effectiveness, potential."

Princess Sissi was delighted: "The Admiral is more powerful than I thought! Can you elaborate on that? ”

"The London class, which has a displacement of only 1,000 tons larger than the Brooklyn class, is a heavy patrol, while the 12,000-ton Brooklyn is a light patrol. The difference in the cost of retrofitting should be that the Brooklyn class is more economical. In terms of protection, the two should be about the same, and even if the London class is strong, it is limited. Both sides should not be able to block armor-piercing shells of the 150-mm class, but the Brooklyn class has 15 152-mm guns, while the London class has only 8 203-mm guns. The rate of fire is definitely faster for the Brooklyn class, and with twice as many guns, the firepower projection capacity of the Brooklyn class is several times that of the London class. Is this still a choice? Besides, wouldn't it be cheaper to convert the Brooklyn-class into a Worcester-class light cruiser or even a Des Moines-class heavy cruiser? These are in the same vein. ”

"But we don't have any drawings!"

"I have!"

As he spoke, Xu Zhonglin took out the hell pocket watch and opened it.

After a long time, Princess Sissi withdrew her trembling hands, she didn't know how to describe them, and looked at Xu Zhonglin with a complicated expression: "Admiral, who are you?" ”

"I am Xu Zhonglin, your admiral. It's just that I'm from another world, where none of you exist, only your hull exists. Your hulls have all been to my homeland, and I've seen a medal called the 'Knight's Cross of the Order of Maria Theresa', the kind that Teresa wears around her neck, and the Queen Elizabeth also sank herself in my former homeland in a naval battle more than ten years later, unloading all its main guns. ”

"Qingdao!"

"Oh, you know?"

"Yes, I have been to Tianjin with my sister. And Senta, and Aspen. I don't know how these memories came about, but every prototype ship mother has them, and it's also our common secret. I'm sure I wasn't conscious at that time, but I could feel it, it was me. ”

Teresa silently took off the medal next to her, stroked it lightly with her hand, and handed it to Xu Zhonglin: "It's called the Maria Theresa Military Merit Medal, designed by Empress Maria Theresa, although I am very similar to her, but that's not me, I'm the cruiser Empress Maria Theresa." Kaiser Wilhelm II, Field Marshal Hindenburg, and Archduke Ferdinand were proud to wear this medal. Its pattern is the Austrian flag, and the inscription around it is tenacity, so it is also called the Medal of Tenacity. ”

Xu Zhonglin took the medal and rubbed it with his hand, it was very textured, much like the German Iron Cross, but the Eye of Hell told him that this medal was not simple.

Maria Theresa Medal of Merit: Unactivated, boy, there's a lot of unknowns in the world for you to explore.

"Did you make this medal yourself?"

Teresa shook her head, "I was born with me, well, when the Admiral who summoned me summoned me. ”

Ay! I'm not a reporter for the Discovery Channel.
