Hyperdimensional Harem Exploration Project

"Ahaha, I finally remembered Dad. Thank you for the candy."

Xu Ya touched his sensible daughter, took the remaining sugar painting and started eating it.

After a while, the two of them tried all the snacks on half of the street, but their stomachs were still flat and they didn't feel full at all.

So Xu Ya chose a western-style restaurant with exquisite decoration, went upstairs and found a seat by the window. He skillfully ordered a lot of steak and caviar to enjoy. After all... the price is not expensive. In this day and age, gold is linked to currency, which is much more valuable than pure credit currency.

"Did Dad grow up here? He seems to be very good at communicating with other people, and the uncles and aunts outside look a lot like Dad."

Just as the food was being served, Su, leaning against the window, suddenly discovered that Xu Ya was not surprised or unfamiliar with anything here.

"That's because I've been to a similar place before. You'll understand when you grow up."

Xu Ya was perfunctory in his words, but he actually didn't know how to explain it to the child. Moreover, while the food was being served, he picked up the books and magazines and started flipping through them. He knew Japanese characters, and the earlier the time point, the more similar it is to Chinese characters. Chinese people have no pressure to read Japanese.

puff!

However, after only turning a few pages, Xu Ya just took a sip of tea and immediately spit it out again, rubbing his eyes in disbelief.

The reason was that he came across a juice book introducing National Geographic, which, as expected, contained some relatively popular scientific information.

This land belongs to the Fuso Empire, which is a metaphor for a certain country in reality. However, unlike the real world, the Fuso here did not experience the Honnoji Incident during the Azuchi period, when Oda Nobunaga unified Japan, and thus entered the long-term rule of the Oda Shogunate.

Oda Nobunaga was an enlightened ruler. This can be seen from the fact that he frequently traded with outsiders and even took in the black man Yasuke as a samurai. He was not as conservative as the old turtle Tokugawa Ieyasu.

Therefore, the island nation, which had never been closed off during the Azuchi period, actively developed maritime trade and began the first step of colonial expansion. A huge island, Nanyang Island, was discovered in the central Pacific Ocean. Nanyang Island was vast and uninhabited, making it perfect for safe colonization.

It then occupied Hawaii and other Pacific Islands to complete its monopoly, monopolizing the trade from the Pacific Ocean to the Indian Ocean, becoming a maritime power along with Britannia.

In the early seventeenth century, the Fuso Empire even exported mercenaries to participate in the European war between the Netherlands and Britain because of its good relations with the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

However, as the Netherlands declined and was defeated, the Fuso Empire quickly abandoned this country with which it had a good but worthless relationship and formed an alliance with Britain, following the example of Spain and Portugal in dividing the world's territory... Then a slightly rough and old world map appeared on the paper.

“Hahahahaha, what the hell is this?!”

Xu Ya's laughter broke the silence in the restaurant. Those well-dressed and elegant people turned their heads to look at him. Their eyes were full of dissatisfaction, as if they had seen an impolite person.

"I'm sorry, I saw a joke that I really couldn't stand."

Xu Ya spoke casually to the people around him, and then the others understood a little and stopped paying attention to what was happening here.

However, Xu Ya's smile could hardly be suppressed. He looked at it again and again, feeling that the world was playing a huge joke on him.

The world map in the magazine looks very similar to the real world in terms of its outline, and the biggest change may be in China. Mongolia's tens of millions of square kilometers of land have completely disappeared and turned into a super sea area, expanding the already large territory of the Pacific Ocean.

Where is the Celestial Empire? Where has my Celestial Empire gone?

This is probably another funny setting that some Showa staff thought up. Since you can't be the first in the East Asian monster room, some mysterious oriental power deleted the owner of the room and you can become the first! It's too funny, right?

In addition, not only did they delete China, but they did not delete it completely and left Taiwan and Hainan Island. I don’t know whether it was intentional or not.

Xu Ya took the magazine and looked at it again and again. After confirming that it was not some pseudo-scientific entertainment magazine but a serious literary publication, he fell silent.

He continued reading.

Due to the discovery of Nanyang Island in the central Pacific, the resources of Nanyang Island are the plus version of Australia, which can be regarded as a model of having mines at home. As a result, the Fuso Empire obtained a large amount of resources and became a country with a large population, resources and trade.

Its national strength is comparable to that of Britain and the emerging Libya (the prototype of the United States), and is even known as Britannia. It is the two major maritime and industrial powers between Fuso in the East and Britain in the West.

As for where Fuso's industrialization came from...they had spies all over Europe and had kidnapped many scientists from there.

Therefore, before Libya became a beacon of democracy, the mysterious Eastern country became the first choice for immigrants from war-torn Europe.

It has to be said that the Fuso Empire is also very good at establishing its own special and positive image in Western society, just like in reality, so the Eastern power of this world should not be underestimated. Due to the needs of trade, the main export is highly processed raw materials with advanced technology, and mass production of small, high-value, and reliable quality industrial products.

In addition, as an island country, it naturally attaches great importance to maritime defense. Its naval power is strong. The 88 Fleet Plan has been realized and expanded. Its aircraft carrier fleet is like dumplings, which is the opposite of the United States. In addition, it even started the export trade of warships.

Today's newspaper published the news that last month the Fuso Empire sold two Akagi-class aircraft carriers to the Karlsland Empire (prototype of the German Second Empire).

In addition to the general navy, it also has a large number of aircraft carriers for air infantry.

Wait, air infantry uses aircraft carriers? Aviation? Infantry? Ships? The sea, land, and air can actually be combined together.

However, the aviation infantry used the term aircraft carrier without any specific explanation, just like everyone knows what an aircraft carrier is when they are mentioned and they are used to it. Only children need a specific explanation.

However, a related concept, witch, is mentioned in another book.

Unlike reality, this is a world full of magic.

However, this magical power usually only appears in young girls, and then gradually disappears as they get older. It is a mysterious power.

Girls with that kind of power can move things without using their hands, make them float in the air, protect others by creating a field with magic power, or, like Su, form a communication network with magic power.

Therefore, they are called witches, respected and feared by people.

However, because this power has never been able to settle down, young witches never step onto the stage of history. They can only serve those in power and live in the shadows.

Then in the 18th century, mankind ushered in a great revolution in magic. By using magic to amplify steam engines, making them a new source of power, human development took a leap forward.

The witches became pioneers everywhere, leading the continuous advancement of the technology of magic amplification machinery. The amplified magic provided a huge labor force for the factory, and even the maintenance of its product delivery lines relied on magic. The human territory began to expand rapidly.

But at the same time, some alien creatures frequently appeared in people's vision. This is an enemy that has had sporadic encounters since ancient times. They seem to be the enemy of civilization. As civilization develops, it becomes more and more powerful.

Taking the magic revolution as an opportunity, large-scale activities began.

True identity unknown. Activity purpose unknown. Living status unknown.

But there is no doubt that this enemy, called "Neroi" for its mechanical and biological fusion, is very powerful and constantly invades human territory. It is surrounded by miasma that ordinary people cannot approach, enough to make the earth rot, and then destroy everything on the ground like locusts.

Ordinary armies were no match for the "Neloy", so someone proposed sending young but powerful witches into the war.

.......

"Hey, have you heard that two very special foreigners have come to the southern port?"

As a prosperous port city, Nangang City has many inns and teahouses that provide services to sailors and travelers. A group of people were leisurely drinking tea and eating melon seeds, when suddenly a know-it-all with a sly face heard some incredible news from the dock.

"Oh, what's so special about it? Don't make a fuss about well-known news. Last time, you made a shipload of ordinary coffee sound amazing. People who didn't know would think they were drinking holy water melted from Mount Fuji. Don't advertise to the Liberians anymore. We are noble Fuso people!"

An old man who couldn't stand the know-it-all immediately mocked the man for always making a fuss about nothing and for taking a lot of money to advertise for foreigners.

How can the citizens of the Celestial Empire, a great country, be so humble to outsiders!

"Hey, it's different this time. I didn't charge any money. I heard that someone on the Pacific route saw a super fast boat arriving at South Port. I heard that the speed was at least 80 knots. Now this news has spread like wildfire among the sailors at the dock. Many people are looking for them!"

"Is this true? Now that you mention it, I'm interested. Where did this person come from? Is this Liberia's new technology equipment?"

A speedboat that can reach 80 knots! You should know that the known speedboats these days can only reach half of this speed.

This was a completely new and unknown terrifying technology. As citizens of a maritime country, they were naturally extremely sensitive to new technologies from various countries, especially ships. Everyone couldn't help but prick up their ears and want to examine the pictures and learn more about them.

"It doesn't seem like it. They look more like South Pacific islanders! But the clothes they are wearing are very special, like black tights! They are easy to recognize."

Hearing this, the South Pacific islanders are not a group of backward guys.

Suddenly, most people treated the know-it-all's words as a joke and did not take them seriously.

Only a low-key man who was eating peanuts and listening to songs on the side moved his eyes slightly, paid the bill silently and left.

The author says:

Author's words: PS: The background setting of Strike Witches is quite outrageous. I also wonder if the collapse of Sanbengzi Academy is based on the setting of the Alien Army. The stronger the civilization, the stronger the strength.

PS2: Please give me a monthly ticket. If you have coins, please exchange them for a monthly ticket.

Chapter 61 Big Movement

Nanyun Pavilion Villa.

This is a very famous high-end hot spring resort located in the north of Nangang City. It is a place specially used to entertain Chinese and wealthy merchants from the mainland.

Of course, all high-end guesthouses are based on the level and status of the guests. In fact, as long as it is a rule under the private capital system, everything can be negotiated with money.

And he is the Lord of the Box Garden recognized by both the Terrans and the elves.

Xu Ya was slowly influenced by everyone and gradually regarded himself as a leader. Even when traveling in a low-key manner, he naturally could not lower his style.

After being rejected, he calmly took out stacks of gold from his backpack and slapped them in front of the waiter in the most brutal way, and then asked Su to show her "magic" a little.

It's Miss Witch!

The boss, who had been reluctant before, took a closer look and instantly became respectful. As a witch with powerful strength, she has always been a strategic "material" controlled by the state.

It was obvious that some noble lord was on a secret visit with the witch, no further explanation was needed.

As for the question of why Xu Ya and Su look so different... witches from commoner families will be taken away once they are discovered, and will have nothing to do with their original families at all. Next, these witches will be determined by their magical talents and magical effects, and then allocated one by one to various Chinese families for adoption.

As the political capital of each family, he is active. Therefore, things like different appearances are never a big deal.

Xu Ya let the boss make up some strange identities for them, and put on a nonchalant look as he led Su through the lobby and came to a classic Japanese courtyard.

There the receptionist smiled at them warmly, completed the check-in formalities for them and directed them to their rooms.

The furnishings in the room were simple yet elegant, and the large windows offered a panoramic view of the mountains and lake. The waiter then served a welcome fruit and tea, and also assigned a special butler to take care of their personal daily life and introduce the service facilities and projects of the villa, all of which were free of charge.

The initial payment was paid in full.

What’s more, there is a witch here, and every witch is a walking propaganda machine.

The boss was naturally happy to give a discount.

The meticulous and thoughtful service made them very satisfied. Xu Ya helped Su pack her clothes, put on a bath towel and prepared to start the hot spring trip.

The hot springs are well-arranged. On one side is a large open-air pool with clear water. A group of girls are playing here.

On one side is the more private indoor hot spring area.

They first came to the indoor area, where the pool exuded a faint fragrance of hot air. Xu Ya entered the pool and for a moment felt like he had returned to the moment when he bathed in dragon blood. His whole body tensed up like a conditioned reflex. But he soon realized that this was just an ordinary hot spring, and the water temperature was just right, soft and gentle, and then he relaxed again, completely relaxing and enjoying both his body and mind.

You no longer have to worry about being attacked while sleeping and causing your baby to suffer.

He closed his eyes, listened to the soft music, enjoyed the comfort of the pool, and at the same time empty his mind and meditated.

The magic power that was originally difficult to pry open in the body gradually loosened, and along with the pool water, it spread to the surroundings. The first person to come into contact with it was Su, who was playing by the pool. She looked at the letters and murals on the bottom of the pool with great interest.

"Ah!" Sue screamed, and she felt something entering her body from outside.

At that time, Xu Ya's dragon magic entangled her, and then after contacting the girl's weak magic, a subtle chemical reaction occurred and was fiercely infused into her, and then blended. The whole person couldn't help but arouse magic, and under the enhancement of external magic, an extraordinary psychic communication signal was sent out.

Su's screams echoed in the brains of people within a radius of several kilometers.

"Did you all hear that? Someone has awakened magic power! Such strong magic power!"

At the edge of the open-air pool with green plants, there were several witches from the navy who were on vacation playing by the hot spring pool. Everyone felt this out-of-control mental scream, and they were shocked for a short time, but they also suddenly reacted.

Kitago Akihabara, who was only 18 years old and managed these young witches, immediately realized that a witch with powerful magic had been born.

Unexpectedly, this time, she followed the invitation of her friends and brought her students to the Nanyang Island for vacation, but unexpectedly encountered such a thing.

Although she is young, she has actually reached the rank of major. The boss who serves as the principal of the Sasebo Naval Witch Training School naturally cannot let go of such an outstanding seedling. If the navy does not care, then the honor will be snatched away by the army!

Even in Japan where the world line has changed, the struggle between land and sea is still something that cannot be avoided.

Then she rushed towards the source of the magic power.

"What's going on?!" Xu Ya, who was also startled by the scream that exploded from his heart, opened his eyes. The dragon's magic power was instantly withdrawn, and Su's rampage stopped instantly like an appliance that had its power unplugged. "Damn it, the noise is too loud."

Xu Ya, who didn't know he was in trouble, picked up the unconscious Su, picked up his backpack and left the indoor hot spring instantly.

As soon as they left, Kitagora Akira pushed open the door and saw that the water in the pool was still rippling violently and the room was empty.

"Where have people gone?"

"Get out of the way, get out of the way! The army is searching for suspicious people! Don't hinder the search!"

At this time, there was a burst of noise coming from outside the door. It was the Army's Intelligence Division search team that broke into the Nanyun Pavilion Villa.

Suddenly, there were screams from girls outside. Kitago Akiha walked out of the indoor hot spring area and saw a group of sturdy spies bumping into the witches, who were wearing very cool clothes. Although it was a witch tradition to only wear panties.

But it was too rude to be stared at like this by a group of grown men.

"I am Captain Kitago Akihabara of the Navy. It is unbecoming of the Imperial Army to act so barbarically!"
