Chapter 888: Gangqu's Mirror Sea Area

The next day at dawn, Qin Ge and Ou Gen Qin Wang set off toward the experimental field. Because it involved secrecy, they did not bring the brave secretary ship, but instead brought his personal maid Belfast.

The three of them did not board the command ship, but glided across the water surface. After all, Qin Ge now has a water-surface gliding device and practices with it regularly; the experimental field is not far from Gangqu and lies within the patrol range, so taking this opportunity as a long-distance sailing practice is also good.

Besides, there are also my two Marriage Ships beside us; we can chat and enjoy the scenery while making progress— isn't that perfect?

"Speaking of which, this is still the first time I've gone out like this with you all; the water-surface gliding device made by Hai Lun Na is really convenient." Qin Ge said while rowing.

"Hehe, it's indeed convenient, but this is only for short-distance travel; after all, the commander and we are not the same—if you travel long distances, you definitely couldn't bear it. So for longer trips in the future, we still have to take the command ship." Ou Gen Qin Wang said.

"That's also true, after all, no matter how I say it, I'm still a human and cannot be compared to you shipgirls." Qin Ge smiled; although he can now glide on the water surface, he still has self-awareness.

"However, let me tell the commander a relatively good news. We are also researching some biotechnology, mainly focusing on genes. If the research succeeds, perhaps the commander could become a species above humanity." Ou Gen Qin Wang said.

"Genes? Genetic modification?" Qin Ge exclaimed in surprise.

"Yes, but we currently lack highly advanced supercomputing facilities, so calculations are slow. However, I believe that in the not-too-distant future we will surely find a way to modify the commander's genes, letting you live longer than ordinary humans, be stronger, and have greater adaptability." Ou Gen Qin Wang said.

"Ha, this isn't something we need to urgently consider now; our main focus is still strengthening our Fleet's power and preparing for future battles. Moreover, who can say for sure what will happen later? If we achieve Victory, we can invest most of our subsequent strength into gene research; but if we lose, then doing these now is just chasing shadows and chasing the moon." Qin Ge said.

"If you all aren't by my side, what meaning do I still have in this world? Would I just stand by the sea every day, gazing at the vast ocean and repenting all day?" Qin Ge said.

"Hehe, we won't fail, because the commander is behind us, so we will definitely succeed in the future. I believe that whether it's our Iron Blood or other factions, they all think this way." Ou Gen Qin Wang said, his tone also softening.

"Hmm, we will definitely succeed." Qin Ge laughed, then he raised his head and looked at the distant island, saying, "By rights, we should be arriving soon, right? When will we enter the mirror sea area?"

"Soon, but our mirror sea area is different from the Sirens' mirror sea area." Ou Gen Qin Wang said.

"Not the same?" Qin Ge stared for a moment, then recalled the mirror sea area in the Northern Union's secret chamber, asking, "So is it the same as the Northern Union's mirror sea area?"

"Roughly speaking, anyway, you'll know when the commander arrives." Ou Gen Qin Wang kept it a mystery.

Qin Ge glanced helplessly at Ou Gen Qin Wang; the other smiled faintly, leaving him speechless.

Belfast laughed, "Master, there's no need to rush; aren't we about to arrive? By then we'll know everything, so we should keep some anticipation, right?"

Qin Ge nodded, "Hmm."

The three continued forward; not long after, the originally bright sunny sky suddenly grew somewhat dim, and then, from somewhere, a patch of sea fog appeared, spreading rapidly, causing Qin Ge to involuntarily move closer to Belfast.

"So are we now entering the mirror sea area?" Qin Ge looked at the thickening fog and said to Ou Gen Qin Wang not far ahead.

"That's right, but we're still at the edge; our destination is the main island at the center." Ou Gen Qin Wang said, also gradually moving closer to Qin Ge.

"Tsk, this feeling is somewhat oppressive; do you normally work in such an environment?" Qin Ge asked.

"Of course not; this is to display our port area's mirror sea area, with all mechanisms fully opened for effect. Commander, don't be surprised later." Ou Gen Qin Wang said with a mysterious smile.

Qin Ge grinned, "I'm waiting for you to scare me silly."

"Haha, the commander has already seen many big scenes; killing him is impossible, we just want to surprise him a bit— even our Fleet can possess such a mighty classic sea area." Ou Gen Qin Wang laughed.

"Well, actually I'm already somewhat surprised." Qin Ge looked at the increasingly heavy sea fog and said, "So, is this sea fog the previous micro-layer mixture?"

"Yes, and with the help of the Purifiers and Yujin, we have upgraded this micro-layer mixture; now even the Sirens' detectors cannot discern our arrangement within the micro-layer substance." Ou Gen Qin Wang said.

"Huh? The Purifiers helped too?" Qin Ge exclaimed in surprise, "She isn't just an experimental mechanism, right? Aren't you afraid she'll go back and submit the new sea fog analysis to the Observer?"

"Hehe, there's no need to fear, because Yujin's power is also involved here. Although their technology was the same before, later Yujin developed many technologies to avoid scrutiny by the arbitration agency, so what is applied here is also one of those."

"When combined, even the Sirens cannot detect it. We've conducted experiments; even if the Purifiers go all out to break through, they cannot break through this sea fog." Ou Gen Qin Wang said.

"Well, looks like I was worrying for nothing." Qin Ge shrugged.

"At that moment, a beam of light pierced the heavy fog not far away, and the object's outline gradually became clear as they approached. When Qin Ge saw the object's entirety, he couldn't help but open his mouth wide."

"This is... a missile battleship?" Qin Ge exclaimed in surprise, "You've evolved the mass-produced battleship into a missile battleship?"

"Yes." Ou Gen Qin Wang nodded, "This is also inspiration we previously gained from Anshan and Changchun of Donghuang."

"Since we have obtained an information network for the battlefield, we can use these missiles to strike the enemy more precisely, instantly annihilating their mass-produced forces, thereby supplementing the firepower of our main ships against enemy elite units."

"Moreover, the attack range of these missile battleships is very far, completely exceeding that of ordinary battleships and second only to that of aircraft carriers, so we needn't worry about loss, and they can be considered a relatively economical and saving type of mass-produced ship."

Qin Ge smiled, "Well, our Fleet has now entered the missile era; I'm even more curious—what other surprises await me?"

"Just keep watching and you'll find out."
