Eh? Do you also want to try the iron fist of the humanoid girl?

The conventional power group can also work with the reactor to produce more steam to pressurize the turbine. In this mode, the ship can continuously exceed the maximum speed of 32 knots in a relatively short period of time.

Now they want to completely remove nuclear power, rely solely on high-power gas turbines to achieve a speed of 30 knots, and have a range of 7000 nautical miles when sailing at an economic speed.

When the U.S. Navy received intelligence on new Soviet equipment developments, it saw the "resurrection of the dead" of the Type 1144 cruiser, and General Eric S. Morgan, then Chief of Naval Operations, immediately thought of their autonomous humanoids.

The Russians can use general-purpose industrial robots to improve their industrial manufacturing capabilities, so why don’t they put more advanced artificial intelligence into use immediately?

The Navy's Military Advocate General is now constantly fighting with General Dynamics' legal department, and it's getting really annoying.

So, where are our autonomous dolls? We should quickly bring them out to replace those old and lazy shipyard workers and improve efficiency.

There are still six Nimitz-class ships that need to enter the slipway, and the remaining ones are over-deployed. The longer the time is delayed, the greater the probability of problems.

General Eric knew that DARPA had loaded the only artificial intelligence currently available into an artificial body, giving it an "identity" and putting it into official use.

This is a good decision, no problem.

But what annoyed him was that if it was successful, why not mass produce it.

He is in great need of people here, at least 30,000 skilled technical workers to meet the navy's huge maintenance and shipbuilding plans.

Eric was too lazy to mention the explosion at the Shinobuyama ruins in 2030. Time cannot be reversed and lost things cannot be returned intact.

Then we can only find compensation from other places.

Now that two large slipways capable of building two aircraft carriers are about to be completed, the construction of the Kaiser Shipyard in Oregon is basically completed, and only the installation of various large equipment remains.

Eric currently serves as the acting commander of the Naval Materiel Command, using the Navy's academy system and partnerships with civilian colleges to retrain talent with ship design and construction skills.

At the same time, the Navy established a professional shipbuilding school based on these training systems to ensure that workers have the skills required to build modern ships.

Not only that, Eric developed a development plan for the Kaiser Shipyard in Oregon, defining it as a large ship construction and maintenance center, and lobbied Congress together with the Secretary of the Navy.

Their ultimate goal is to incorporate it into the overall planning of the national security strategy.

In this way, this shipyard established entirely by the navy can receive clear policy and financial support, reducing the financial pressure on the navy.

Bath Iron Works of General Dynamics? Get lost, you're the one who slowed me down!

The Navy has mercifully not interfered with adjustments to the previously signed but uncompleted orders for Burke-class destroyers. For future orders, please compete with Kaiser Shipyard with your strength and efficiency.

He sat down on the sofa and thought over and over again about where to find enough workers.

The technical school has no holidays for training, and there is still some time before the first batch of students graduate; the same goes for students majoring in ship design.

They all have one thing in common: they have no industry experience and need to be led by professionals in the industry.

Eric thought of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's artificial intelligence again. He heard that it is now deployed in Germany, serving as the security officer for the new generation of tactical humanoid projects, to protect its team.

What a waste, it would be better to send the things to him and let him be a worker.

The Russians have general industrial robots to assist them, so they can't fall behind. Thinking of this, Eric immediately called Harry's private number.

Although the Marine Systems Command under the Navy system is the main technical organization responsible for designing, building and maintaining Navy ships and vessels, it also has many professional ship design engineering teams.

But what they are usually responsible for is participating in the design and then providing professional suggestions for improvement.

Without a truly independent design team and independent design capabilities, integration work is the real challenge.

"…Don't forget the Naval Research Laboratory."

"Ah?" Eric thought for a moment, "NRL is just a scientific research institution, it..."

Eric was interrupted by Harry before he could finish his words.

"No matter what kind of research it undertakes, there are engineers and scientists you need. In addition to conducting research on various naval technologies and ship designs, they are also engineering talents themselves and can be used as consultants."

Harry immediately thought of the Annapolis Naval Academy and reminded:

“Your alma mater not only trains future officers, but also offers engineering courses. These cadets receive a lot of training in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, and some of them can serve as professionals in the fields of ship design and manufacturing.”

"Yeah, how could I have forgotten that."

Eric followed Harry's train of thought and suddenly realized that according to the previous allocation method, most of the resources of these trainees who received engineering training were wasted.

Harry smiled cunningly when he heard that. This guy followed the line of thought he provided and no longer had any ideas about attacking Raphael.

If it weren't for the incident in the Frankfurt blockade, he would probably have fulfilled Eric's wish and called back Raphael, Lingyin, Asuka and Luhui.

But now, he believes there is no place for them in the system.

Until the next generation of autonomous dolls is available, it is not appropriate for the Doll Squad to return to the United States.

Chapter 92 Demonstration

Eric put down the phone, leaned back on the sofa, and gently rubbed his temples with both hands. This day, in addition to dealing with the traps hidden in various official documents, he also had to confront people in conversation.

How could he not understand Harry's way of changing the subject? He could tell that this guy cared about his masterpiece and had a special feeling for it.

It's normal, understand and bless.

Eric had heard about those bionic humanoids.

Some conservative guys within the system regard their birth as a disaster, fearing that they will drive them out and take their place in the future.

In this regard, he wanted to say, well done! Those who are just sitting there doing nothing should get out and give their positions to reliable and talented people.

The situation now is different from the past. We have entered an era of frequent wars and widespread regional conflicts.

The matter of bionic humanoids can be postponed for the time being. Right now, according to Harry's suggestion, an inventory of the navy's engineering and technical personnel and units must be put on the agenda, and then resources must be integrated.

……

"The third police station in Fürstenwalde is engulfed in flames, and nearby shops are also engulfed in flames. The Urban Security Research Committee reported that since January, police stations in many places have been attacked...

At this moment, outside the state government headquarters in Stuttgart, there is a crowd of angry people. You can just see the tense moment, the Stuttgart police are now fully mobilized...

Protests broke out in Stuttgart last night, a powder keg of crisis. As anger escalated, many shops were burned down in flames.

Frontline reporters continuously transmitted live footage of the violent demonstrations and protests back to the studio.

The anchor sat behind the dazzling news desk, her brows furrowed, her eyes fixed on the camera. Her voice trembled slightly, revealing her inner uneasiness.

She glanced at the manuscript paper at hand, slowed down her breathing rate imperceptibly, and tried to stay calm, but her tense nerves were hard to hide.

"Dear viewers, I would like to inform you about the sudden protest in Stuttgart."

Her voice was a little hoarse, obviously affected by her emotions.

"In the past few hours we have witnessed a massive protest.

The demonstrators demanded the evacuation of disaster victims from Northern Europe and called on the Baden-Württemberg state government to restore public order, investigate all land within the territory, and clarify the ELID radiation values.

In September 35, North American and South American countries rejected the refugee resettlement plan proposed by the European Union.

The EU was forced to share the burden of accepting refugees among its countries, and the influx of refugees from Eastern Europe overwhelmed the people's psychological bottom line.

Germany, which was already a victim of the aurora borealis incident, had to take on the additional task of resettling Eastern European refugees, which immediately aroused public dissatisfaction.

According to the "Aurora Incident Investigation Report" issued by the National Monument Administration in early 36, it was clearly determined that the contaminated area "is not suitable for outdoor activities for people who are not wearing collapse fluid protection equipment."

After going through the process of appeals, initiatives and protests, the state and federal governments acted like ostriches and completely ignored the voices of the people.

Residents in the eastern region, worried that the refugees would be stranded permanently, immediately launched demonstrations, each time larger in scale and causing more and more chaos.

With the news anchor's nervous voice, the director's room switched to the scene of the protest. The screen showed signs of chaos, with people holding signs and shouting, taking the lead in smashing things, and taking the opportunity to loot shops on the street.

In the footage captured by the camera, someone threw a Molotov cocktail, which was quite scary.

"This is a public street, you can't order us to go there!"

State police blocked the protesters within several blocks. They were fully armed and holding riot shields, throwing tear gas grenades and grenades one after another, and finally even fire trucks drove to the scene.

However, the fire truck's task was not to extinguish the raging flames in the blocked blocks, but to use high-pressure water cannons to fire at the demonstrators.

The scene was tense and full of gunpowder, and the two sides were just about to draw their guns and shoot at each other.

It was as if the newscaster had come to his senses.

"Police have launched an operation to control the situation, but the information we have received so far indicates that the conflict is still ongoing. There are reports that dozens of people have been seriously injured, but the specific circumstances are still awaiting further confirmation."

The announcer's tone was enough to let the audience know her concerns.

Outside the window, night fell over the city, with street lights flickering in the shadows of the demonstrators and police.

"We will continue to monitor the development of this incident and provide you with the latest reports. Please stay safe and stay away from the area involved."

For ordinary people, mixing in there might be life-threatening. But in Raphael's eyes, this is an excellent urban training scene.

At this time, she appeared in the city of Stuttgart with her sisters.

In order to make the situation more tense, Raphael found a guardrailed staircase in the green park on the side of the road and took them to temporarily stop their "escape".

"The rioting around the church is getting too crazy, they're starting to shoot everybody, we need to get out of here."

Whenever a breeze blows, the branches at the treetops sway left and right, rubbing against each other and whispering.

The park is so densely covered with trees that the sky cannot be seen from the forest. At most, one can only vaguely see a faint light through the green mesh.

The thick leaves formed a natural cover, preventing the moonlight from reaching the ground.

"I've finished my opening remarks. Do you feel nervous?"

Raphael sat on the steps, listening to waves of screaming, roaring, and the explosions of various tear gas projectiles all around him.

"..."

Lingyin touched the guitar bag held in front of her, tilted her head and looked at Raphael with an impolite look as if she was looking at a slug.

Raphael looked at Fei Niao and Xiao Si and saw that they both had their hands on the violin case and piano case. If there was any danger, their first reaction would definitely be to take out their weapons.

"Well, even though we are carrying weapons today, the scenario is set up for when we travel without any weapons."

Raphael had no sense of accomplishment and said mechanically:

“More than 80% of the world’s population lives in urban environments, so it’s impossible for us to carry our devices around all the time like we do today.

So if there is an emergency and you really need to escape, it is very likely to happen around us, given the current global situation.

As we mentioned earlier at the Frankfurt Suburban Institute, this seems like a far-fetched, impossible thing to happen.

However, time and again, whether it is Canada, Rwanda, or the Gaza Strip, or even in the neighborhood just a few dozen meters away from us..."

Statistically, cities are where this usually happens. So, living in a city means you have to face this.

Chapter 93 This is a vacation

This may be due to various reasons, such as a terrorist attack on the city, requiring escape; or a natural disaster, requiring escape.

There are many different reasons that drive people to leave cities.

"The events tonight and tomorrow won't be confined to one specific setting, but we'll be going into a lot of different scenarios, and a lot of different approaches."

As Raphael was speaking, a burst of gunfire pierced the night sky, deafening.

The four of them looked in the direction where the gunshots came from, and then all of them stood up and hid temporarily in the lush woods nearby.

"Which side fired shots?" Lingyin pricked up her ears, poked her head out from the dense bushes and looked around.

"I don't know. Without deploying drones in advance, we can't see the overall situation of the city." Fei Niao responded calmly: "I hope Stuttgart will not become the second Frankfurt."

"Will Main Frankfurt be able to return to normal soon?"

"The Wehrmacht is cleaning up the city. This riot is related to the relocation of the capital to Berlin."

Asuka looked around and whispered:

"The Berlin Center for Disease Control has found that the number of patients suffering from ELID radiation overdose has been rising rapidly in the past six months. After investigation, it was found that the ELID radiation levels in a large area north of the center of Berlin are close to the upper limit of the human body's natural tolerance."

"What does the upper limit mean? One year or one day?" Raphael asked.

"The amount of ELID wide-area collapse radiation is the annual average dose limit. Even so, without any protection or any drug support, it will reach the acceptable limit in about 4 months."

Asuka reached out and brushed the weeds off Lingyin's shoulders, and continued:

“Although ELID collapse radiation and nuclear radiation are fundamentally different, their effects are both cumulative.

Once exposed, even if the body's condition is corrected clinically, the damage that has already been done cannot be reversed."

"I think they have considered this. Are the Berlin authorities planning to move to Frankfurt am Main?"

"It doesn't look like a plan, but a plan being implemented."
