Azur Lane: Traveling through time and becoming a Siren!

......

The airport is right next to a residential area, so it only takes a few minutes to get there by subway.

The train door opened, and a sense of noise hit me.

Subway trains arrive quickly, drop off large numbers of people and then leave quickly.

I originally thought that there wouldn't be many people taking the subway, but it turned out that only the car they were riding in was empty.

Following the crowd out of the subway station, I saw many people carrying suitcases walking towards the airport.

Compared to the bustling shopping mall, the airport at the military base, which should be a deserted place, is crowded with people.

{The clerk said that it was a holiday...but, why are there so many people?}

A strong and powerful engine roar came from the distance.

Looking in the direction where the sound came from, a green four-engine propeller plane was taxiing on the runway.

Looking further away, there was not a single passenger plane with a turbojet engine as Jiang Mengyue remembered.

The more I looked at Jiang Mengyue, the more confused I became.

This is the wrong plane!

Why are there only electric fans?

What about the Jets?

"what happened?"

Binjiang saw that Jiang Mengyue looked confused, so he stopped and asked.

"Are all Donghuang's planes like this?"

"Yeah, what's wrong? This is a new model. It was modified from a bomber before."

Binjiang's answer made Jiang Mengyue a little overwhelmed.

There's something wrong with your tech tree.

Computer graphics cards are so high-end, mobile phones are not bad either, everything looks like a modern technological society, but you do this to your airplane?

If it weren't for the fact that the surrounding environment still looks modern.

Jiang Mengyue thought she had traveled back to World War II after leaving the subway station.

If that plane were to be put in her previous life, it would probably have gone into a museum!

{What have you developed in these years? !}

Jiang Mengyue calmed down her heart which wanted to complain a lot and asked Xiang Haitian.

"Aren't you going to develop more advanced aircraft? Like the Siren."

"Do you think the aircraft we use are outdated?"

"Correct."

Jiang Mengyue nodded.

"Is this backward?" Binjiang thought about Siren's plane and retorted: "Compared with your Siren's plane, this is definitely backward. Siren's weapons are so powerful."

For Binjiang, this is like a person with alien technology standing in front of you and saying that your transportation is too backward. For them, this is not backward.

Haitian thought for a while, combined with the situation on the mainland, and talked about the development of Donghuang aircraft.

While Haitian was telling the development history of Donghuang aircraft, they found a public seat and sat down.

......

"Before the Siren arrived, airplanes had already appeared in Donghuang, but because Donghuang was mired in the quagmire of war, its military industry was very backward and it was unable to build airplanes."

"At that time, people around the world gradually began to appreciate the important role of airplanes in war and began to develop more advanced airplanes, until the Siren came."

"When the Sirens came to this world, all weapons were like stones and sticks, completely unable to resist the Sirens' attack, and the ocean was taken away by the Sirens."

"Ships were sunk when they appeared, planes were shot down when they flew over, and the ocean blocked communication between countries."

"Until the appearance of the ship girls, the counterattack against the Sirens, and the recapture of some sea areas, countries began to communicate with each other and began to develop various weapons to fight against the Sirens, including aircraft. Donghuang also developed its own aircraft."

"But no matter how well the aircraft is developed, it can only fly on the mainland. In the battle with the Sirens, the consumption of aircraft is too high, and they cannot be regenerated at will like the aircraft of the ship girls. They also need people to fly them, and the cost is far greater than the return."

"Because people's reaction speed is far behind that of shipgirls. This is the limit of humans. Shipgirls can play carrier-based aircraft in a variety of ways, but only a very few humans can do that."

"And on the mainland, the development of trains is booming, and the role of airplanes is gradually decreasing."

"Right now, the aircraft used in the war in the country are called Army Air Forces. They are only used to protect the mainland. Being sent to the sea for support is a suicide mission. Even if they fly over the sea area that is rated as safe, they will be shot down by the Sirens."

"In near-sea combat, we will only deploy our Army Aviation after weakening the Siren's anti-aircraft firepower."

"In our time, we don't need this kind of attack method that piles up lives to kill the enemy. Remotely controlled mass-produced warships are enough to help us."

"Because of the advancement of technology in recent years, we are also researching remote-controlled drones, but their value does not seem to be as good as mass-produced warships. One person on an airplane is not as good as one person remotely controlling a warship."

"Aircraft need to be developed, but domestic demand has already been met, and our research and development direction is not here. Instead of continuing to tinker with these, it is better to build a few more ship girls."

"KanColle is the best anti-Siren weapon that is far ahead of its time."

......

When saying the last sentence, Haitian glanced at Binjiang.

When Binjiang was being built, Haitian and other Donghuang partners went out to fight and record data every day.

After that, I waited for a long time before I learned from Yixian about the birth of a new partner.

This is not easy and is also a major leap forward in the history of Donghuang Technology.

"So it's not necessary anymore?"

Is it because using manned aircraft in war is too disadvantageous that there is no development?

War makes technology advance.

“Although there is no need for it now, we are still optimistic about the future of aircraft. There are still places in China that specialize in researching aircraft. As for how far the research has progressed, we don’t know yet.

Regarding foreign countries, it seems that Iron Blood has made a breakthrough in research and developed a new type of aircraft. "

When Jiang Mengyue heard that it was Tiexue's breakthrough research, an airplane came to her mind.

{I'm afraid it's not the ME262, that thing is also an antique, and the aircraft technology tree is developing too slowly.}

But Jiang Mengyue thought carefully about the plots she had seen...

Each major faction has its own super technology, and the planes used in the fight are all electric fans...

All right...

Jiang Mengyue wanted to make Donghuang technology progress, but she couldn't explain the working principles of that thing clearly. She was just an ordinary high school graduate.

I didn't choose physics when I was choosing courses...

I simply stopped talking about it and waited to see if her omnipotent console could come up with some high-tech gadgets to help Donghuang develop.

......

Afterwards, the three did not enter the airport, but strolled around the surrounding parks and prepared to go back.

Because as you go further in, you will reach some important research areas.

Jiang Mengyue is not allowed to approach those places, and Haitian also mentioned this while they were taking a walk.

Then the three of them walked towards the beach, and along the shore, they came to the beach where Jiang Mengyue was lying last time.

Along the way, the three of them just chatted about some daily topics, such as what Jiang Mengyue played on her mobile phone every day, how Binjiang spent his time on the mainland, and Haitian's 996 life in the base.

Let’s talk about Donghuang’s delicious food from time to time.

Until the sun sets.

Jiang Mengyue was allowed to move freely within the designated area, and the three of them separated and returned home.

......

Off topic:

Moreover, the current plot of this book is located in a very early timeline, which is four years ago in real time, in the remote ancient period of Azur Lane, when the plot is relatively chaotic and the fighting is also chaotic.

At that time, each camp also had black technology, and the technology tree was very biased. Combined with the plot of the animation, Iron Blood was tinkering with Fritz X. In reality, the invention time of Fritz X was close to the invention time of V2, and the jet had just appeared.

Therefore, the other camps in this book have not yet developed jet aircraft.

The only place where a passenger plane appears in the game's plot is the private plane that the commander and Anjie took in the initial timeline.

None of the other KanColle travel skins mention aircraft.

But there is an airport.
