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

The journey is 79 kilometers in total. The journey on the first 6 days was relatively simple, with relatively simple terrain and vegetation types, but the last day became very difficult.

There is almost no ground runoff along the approximately 10-kilometer route, and it is basically all stone mountains. Unless water can be squeezed out of the stones, the tactical humanoids must consider their heat dissipation problems.

But no matter how many problems there were, they finally got the job done.

What the testing team has to do next is to arrange as many similar tasks as possible to conduct double tests on "Metis" and the humanoid body.

When all tests were completed and accepted, Metis's capabilities in military topography and wilderness survival reached actual combat standards.

However, it is currently only being tested on a single mountain. In the future, it will be sent to the Middle East, North Africa, Europe and other regions for additional performance experiments.

Once it has made its way around the world, this version of the tactical figure can be mass-produced.

Chapter 138 Next step

There is still some distance before the official delivery, but there is no doubt that the official version of the military autonomous doll is a done deal and is definitely world-class.

Raphael knew that her mission here was accomplished.

After staying at the base for two more days, Nelson personally sent Raphael and others to the airport.

He handed the luggage to Raphael and said, "It is my greatest pleasure to cooperate with you. Maybe we will never meet again in the future. Even if we meet by chance, you may not remember me."

"I'm also glad to be working with you." Raphael took the initiative to extend his hand. "As long as it's you, I can recognize it."

She was not kidding. A person's face can be changed through plastic surgery, but gait is difficult to control and change artificially.

This is a complex behavioral trait. People may put on makeup to prevent even a single hair from being left at the crime scene, but there is one thing that is difficult to control - the walking posture.

Everyone walks in a completely different way because people have subtle differences in muscle strength, tendon and bone length, bone density, visual acuity, coordination, experience, weight, center of gravity, degree of muscle or bone damage, physiological conditions, and personal walking "style."

It is very difficult for a person to disguise their walking posture, and whether a criminal is wearing a mask and walking naturally towards a bank teller or running from a crime scene, their gait can give them away.

"It's best not to recognize me, or at least not to reveal my identity." Nelson hinted, "You'd better stay away from people like me, otherwise you will get into endless trouble."

"Do you think we are the kind of people who are afraid of trouble?"

Nelson maintained a polite smile and said, "Let's get on the plane. It's getting late. We can go there in time for lunch."

"Then, we say goodbye here forever."

"Goodbye." Nelson said softly, "It's better not to see you again."

After shaking hands with Nelson again, Raphael and the other two headed for the boarding gate without looking back.

However, when the captain was allowed to go to the taxiway, Rafael suddenly stood up and found the flight attendant. After showing her ID, she informed the mechanics and the captain that they had an urgent mission and needed to get off the plane.

Seriously, it wasn't hard to work with Nelson in the past, at least at that time. She thought he was just a practical technical colonel with rich combat experience.

When she discovered that this guy was actually a cold-blooded bastard, she realized that this seemingly rigorous colonel had many advantages, such as being decisive and willing to take responsibility.

This was also the point that made Raphael always alert and worried. Considering what Harry told her when he sent her here, she decided not to trust such a person too hastily.

Not worthy of trust or deep engagement.

The captain cooperated and called for a ground transport vehicle to secretly send them off the plane.

……

In April, walking on unfamiliar streets, most of the flowers and plants in the nearby parks have passed their blooming season. Although there are still petals of various colors, it is not like March when the eyes are filled with brilliant camellia flowers.

"Bob McCoy reports from a refugee camp in Turkey. New York Times reporter Seaney is reunited with his former Syrian assistant..."

"Syria." Raphael stopped and turned to stare at the cabinet in the electrical appliance store, which was displaying the TV screen outside.

"Ah, ah..." Harry sighed repeatedly.

She tilted her head slightly to glance at Harry, wondering what exactly he was sighing about.

"Salah is a former professional basketball player who earned a doctorate in medicine before he fled Syria, which would have qualified him to move to Europe, but he doubts he would be able to adapt."

Salah said:

“I have the ability to go to Europe, but I wouldn’t necessarily go there because the culture is completely different.”

Syrian refugee correspondent Mike Serra continued:

“He is also capable enough to settle in a larger city near the Turkish border, such as Gaziantep.

He hopes to stay in the region, as Gaziantep and Aleppo are close, the food and climate are very similar. He would like to go back to his hometown of Aleppo as soon as it is safe enough.

The main reason why the doctor chose to stay was the geographical proximity of the two countries.

Not only is the transportation convenient, but they all belong to the Yangshulin country and share the same religious beliefs.

In addition, Turkey's economic development is relatively good, and the social security situation is also very good, which is very attractive to refugees.

More importantly, as a doctor of medicine, he was nothing special in Europe, and he could get better treatment if he stayed here.

It is better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix. This is exactly the choice made by Salah.

The reporter on the scene seemed to need no breath as he chattered on and on about another refugee to the audience.

Mohammed and his family lost their home in Syria during the war for the 'reconstruction of the holy land'.

They have been in Turkey for three months and now live in an abandoned shop with no sewerage or electricity, paying $3 a month in rent.

Since their only construction and farming jobs are seasonal, their only source of income this winter is the $12 their 12-year-old son earns working 2 hours a day in a bakery.

Reporter Serra put the microphone to Mohammed's mouth in the camera.

"If the situation here doesn't get better, he will consider going to Europe. Most refugees living in border towns have already spent most of their money trying to get to Turkey.

They don’t have the extra $1000 to $6000 to pay the smugglers to take the huge risks of being smuggled into Europe on a small boat or a crowded truck.”

"Let's go, we can't help." Harry sighed again, "What is Raphael's plan?"

The conversation turned to Raphael. Lingyin pricked up her ears;

Asuka was still staring at the screen of her phone;

Luhui looked around the streets curiously, and when he swung his right hand, it always fell on the small bag at his waist.

Raphael looked straight ahead and responded.

"Anything good to eat in Omaha?"

"..."

Harry fell silent, and the three little ones walking beside him also fell silent.

Raphael turned to look at them, tilting his head in confusion.

"?"

"I mean, do you have any new plans for the future?"

"Planning? Oh... not yet."

Raphael's good mood was gone in an instant. The joy that had filled his chest was now shrinking like a balloon with a hole in it.

She put away her overflowing dissatisfaction and said lightly:

"Where to go? North Africa or Ukraine."

Chapter 139 The increasingly lively world

Raphael casually echoed Harry's words, and Harry probably didn't expect Raphael to listen to him seriously, so he continued to talk to himself.

Later on, these words were no longer spoken to Raphael, but to the puppet figures named "Flying Bird" and "Green Glow" who were accompanying him.

"How long can you stay here?"

"It's not that urgent. If it were urgent, there would be no need to send people all the way here."

"That is to say, judging from all the circumstances, I still have some 'free' time until you think the time is right."

"Yes, considering all the circumstances...just relax and rest for now."

Harry looked up at the four bedrooms on the second floor and said, "Your room is over there. The bedding is new."

"You're so well prepared. Should I express my gratitude with joy?" said Raphael.

"Whatever, it's just a small matter."

Raphael smiled at Harry, "You are completely different now than you were before."

"What was I like before?" Harry slowly sat down on the single sofa at the side.

"Cold, always work-centered, and unable to say goodbye to her children properly..." He said and began to sigh.

"Worse."

"Well, now is not the time to talk about this, really not."

“It’s never the right time.”

"Do you really want to discuss the past now?"

"Yes, I received a few private emails that I thought were sent by mistake, but they mentioned your name and the lady accurately."

Raphael looked at the clock. It was 19:20. It was time to check the room.

"Little Carnegie seems to regard us as yours... I'll forward this to your mailbox later. I think you should think about it seriously."

She stood up, walked up the stairs in two or three steps and hid in the room.

……

The next morning, Raphael, who stayed at "home" doing nothing and wasting the best years of his electronic life, heard the "bad news".

Asuka knocked the door open and walked in, saying, “Something terrible has happened.

A coup took place in Yemen, the rebels occupied Sanaa, the US Embassy in Yemen was also controlled, and everyone was taken prisoner.

Also, Iran is amassing troops on the Iraqi border.”

"It has nothing to do with us," said Raphael.

Both Yemen and Iran are in the east of the world and are too far away.

The root cause of all the chaos in Yemen is the great division between the north and the south.

It has faced the problem of division since its independence in the early 20th century.

The country is divided between north and south, and there has been a long-term internal conflict between Sunnis and Shiites. Even after unification, the north and the south are still divided and cannot work together.

In ancient times, Yemen was ruled successively by the Arab Empire and the Persian Empire. After the rise of the Ottoman Empire in the 15th century, Yemen became a territory of the Ottoman Empire.

In the 17th century, the native Yemeni "Zayd" sect Yang Shulin rose up, drove out the Turks, and established his own country, the "Kahimiyyad Dynasty", ruling the entire Yemen.

But this kind of rule is only superficial, because the unit of the Arab world is not a country, but a "tribe". Each tribe has its own territory, and the chief is the local ruler.

As for the royal government, it could only cooperate with the chiefs, and apart from collecting taxes, it was difficult to carry out in-depth rule in the local area.

The territory of the Kingdom of Yemen was mainly in the northwest, and most of the south was tribal areas, and it also established its own small kingdom in modern times.

These tiny countries had small territories, weak national strength, and a penchant for fighting each other, making life miserable for the people. This provided convenience for modern Western invasions.

After the Age of Discovery, Europeans crossed the African continent and came to the Arab world.

Britain invaded southern Yemen in the 18th century, defeated a group of small countries and established a colony in southern Yemen.

In the mid-19th century, Britain and France jointly dug the Suez Canal, making the Red Sea an important waterway connecting Europe and Asia, but both Britain and France hoped to control this vital choke point.

At that time, France occupied Djibouti, west of the Bab el-Mandeb Strait at the entrance to the Red Sea, and turned the port of Djibouti into its own military port.

The British occupied Yemen west of the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, conquered the local emirates with the port of Aden as its center, and established the "British Aden Protectorate."

The division of Yemen was further strengthened, with the British colonies in the south and the kingdoms in the north confronting each other for a century.

Hundreds of years of war and more than 100 years of division have divided Yemenis into "Southerners" and "Northerners". Although the people of North and South Yemen are of the same ethnicity, the gap between them is very large.

The Yemenis in the north have not experienced a "revolution" and have been ruled by a kingdom for a long time. They have strong religious ideas and are retrogressive Muslims who attach great importance to religious rules.

The Yemenis in the south have been ruled by the West for a hundred years and have also experienced the baptism of socialist ideas. Their thinking is more modern and more secular, and their social atmosphere and national laws are more in line with human values.

The modern country that was born under such a history still maintains the great cultural differences between the north and the south.

That is why Raphael felt that it was nothing big. It would be strange if there was no coup or armed rebellion in this place.

As for Iraq and Iran, they are also enemies. In addition to the differences in ethnic groups, there are also religious factors.
