EP 2024. Big Change (Part 2)

Latest website: If the two forts were not transferred to Thonburi when Akagi was converted into an aircraft carrier, but were moved to another Japanese heavy cruiser built at the same time, then as the war ended, Japan gradually fell into Disadvantage: More and more Japanese warships are being sunk, and it is very likely that it will disappear long ago.

Later, when Thonburi was decommissioned from the Royal Thai Navy and dismantled as usual, the two forts once again escaped the fate of being destroyed.

Therefore, just the fact that it was "collected in the Naval Academy and has been kept until now" is enough to give this turret, which was upgraded to colorful equipment following the renovation of Thonburi, the attribute of "+lucky".

Let’s look at the other attributes.

Perhaps because it has never been used or fired, the firepower attribute of this piece of equipment has been cut off by more than half. When it was still purple-level equipment, it could still provide +7 firepower points. However, after being upgraded to colored equipment, the firepower attribute plummeted to only 3 points.

The 4 attribute points that were deducted, as well as the attribute points that should be increased after upgrading two levels in a row, were added to several other items.

Durability +2, Defense +2, Avoidance +2, Detection +2... In addition to the anti-air +3 and hit +1 that came with it when it was still a purple-level equipment, as well as the luck +2 explained before, it was renamed 'Brilliant' This piece of equipment can add a total of 14 attributes to the user.

Although the total points are still not high enough, it is incomparable with those golden colored main guns that can increase the firepower by 20+ at every turn, and it is also not as good as various advanced carrier-based aircraft, but equipment like it that can comprehensively improve various attributes, in fact Still quite rare. And from a practical point of view, the benefits it brings to the user are no worse than those of main guns that focus on increasing firepower.

All in all, this piece of equipment does not live up to its status as a colored piece of equipment, and can be considered a very good gain.

It is worth mentioning that not only Thonburi, but also other ship girls also brought one or two pieces of high-end equipment after completing the transformation. Moreover, like the 'Brilliant Legacy', they were both new things that Shi Xiaolei had never seen before.

For example, the female kitchen goddess.

After completing the transformation, she was upgraded into a 'multi-purpose supply ship'. Although the name "supply ship" still has the word "supply ship" in it, from the perspective of ship type classification, it is like the ship girls who were transformed into mine patrol, guide patrol, and defense patrol. They have new positioning classifications. It can no longer be generally classified into the ranks of supply ships.

The equipment that comes with it after the transformation is no longer what it was when it was first built. There is only a green-level ‘US-made single-mounted 5-inch gun’. As the Kitchen Goddess herself was upgraded from the gold level to the color level, her equipment grids also increased to four, of which three grids have their own equipment.

Two pieces of golden equipment and one color-level equipment.

The golden equipment equipped in the first grid is the AGM-84 Harpoon anti-ship missile. It is exactly the same as the one that came with Missouri after its transformation, without any difference.

It does not need to occupy a lot of space like the main gun, and it will not produce excessive shock force when firing, which will affect the structural stability of the ship body. At the same time, it can provide a considerable level of firepower points, greatly improving the self-protection ability. ...Taking all factors into consideration, this equipment is indeed very suitable for installation on modern supply ships and used as a self-defense weapon.

The golden equipment in the second grid is a red boat equipped with a machine gun and a small boom, and its name is 'Fireline Rescue'.

Judging from the name of this piece of equipment and the shape of the boat itself, it is obvious that this thing is a multi-functional rescue boat that takes into account the functions of rescuing people who fell into the water, salvaging supplies, repairing damaged hulls, and towing stranded ships. .

This can also be reflected from its '+3 luck' attribute - having this small boat means that the chance of escaping from death has increased by a few points. From another perspective, it is equivalent to Luck value has been improved.

The last piece of colorful equipment is a flag called the ‘Battle Star’.

As a maintenance ship, the Vesta began service in 1913 and was not launched into active service with the U.S. Navy until 1946.

Looking at the length of service alone, it is only 33 years, which is not too long. But judging from the timeline, she caught up with two world wars.

This qualification alone is enough to look at.

As for his achievements during the war...

I won’t mention the First World War, which was too long ago. I’ll just talk about those accumulated during World War II.

Vesta happened to be docked at the dockside when Japan attacked Pearl Harbor. As a result, she also suffered considerable trauma during the air raid.

It was not sunk, and it did not need the help of other ships. It repaired itself, and incidentally also provided support to several other severely damaged ships... Just its performance in the Pearl Harbor incident was enough to give the female Kitchen God Make a note of it.

After that, the Vesta stayed in Tongatapu for another 60 days. During this period, she completed 963 maintenance tasks, repaired 58 warships, and completed 4 salvage missions.

Later, the Vesta, which was originally planned to go to the New Hebrides Islands, received an order midway and diverted to the waters of New Caledonia. After arriving in Noumea on October 31, she immediately devoted herself to the repairs of South Dakota and Enterprise.

At that time, the rear of the Enterprise's flight deck was hit by bombs, forming a series of dents. Because the damage was so severe, water entered the rear lift machinery room, and a lot of equipment in the command room was also damaged. It is no exaggeration to say that even if it is sent back to the shipyard for repairs, it will take a long time to complete the repair.

However, the U.S. Navy was severely damaged at that time. In the entire Pacific battlefield, only one aircraft carrier, Enterprise, was still functioning. Judging from the situation at the time, there was no room to send it back to the shipyard for overhaul.

In this way, the Kitchen Goddess took on the important task of repairing the Enterprise.

Thanks to the maintenance team sent by the Goddess of Vesta, the Enterprise can continue to be repaired during the voyage. If the Kitchen Goddess hadn't been powerful enough to restore the Enterprise's combat effectiveness two hours before the battle, the outcome of the subsequent battle might have been completely different.

Including the subsequent direction of the entire war situation, it will also be greatly affected-the female Kitchen God repaired the Enterprise more than once. In fact, the reason why the Enterprise can be called the "Gray Ghost" and it has not sunk even though it has been claimed to be sunk many times, the Kitchen Goddess can be regarded as taking the greatest credit. In other words, without the Kitchen Goddess, the Enterprise might have sunk long ago.

As we all know, the reason why the US military can continue to fight the Japanese army in the Pacific battlefield is because the Enterprise has always been very active, giving them the most critical vitality.

If the Enterprise is sunk... there is a saying that the US military will most likely have to play GG and completely lose the chance to compete for position.

This shows how great the contribution of the female Kitchen God is.

This is not over yet.

After completing 158 repairs on 21 ships, including the Enterprise, the Vesta was sent to Espiritu Santo Island to begin a year of routine repairs. During the year, Vesta completed 5,603 maintenance missions on 278 ships and participated in 24 rescue operations.

After that, Vesta went to Funafuti in 1943 and completed 604 repairs on 77 ships.

Throughout World War II, the Kitchen Goddess completed thousands of maintenance tasks. It is no exaggeration to say that without her, many famous battleships, including the Enterprise, would certainly not have survived to the highlight of their careers. The situation during World War II is also likely to become very different.

Therefore, despite the fact that the Goddess of the Kitchen has not achieved a number of kills and is not as well-known as the famous battleships such as the Enterprise, in terms of merits and contributions, she can definitely be regarded as one of the top heroes of the Allied Forces.

This is the reason why the Goddess of Kitchen will come with a ‘battle star flag’ after her transformation.

Only ships with meritorious service that have made great contributions are eligible to be awarded battle stars. Although the Vesta Goddess is not the ship with the most battle stars, if you include the two conditions of 'non-combat ship' and 'residing on the main battlefield all year round', she can't even qualify as 'unique among all others' ', at least he is one of the best.
