Throughout history, there have been countless ambitious people who have launched coups. Some have succeeded in taking control of the country, but there have also been cases where they were immediately liquidated after failing.

But the social structure of the Ark is not that of an ancient dynasty.

Here, there is no so-called "emperor" and no "crown prince dispute".

In modern society, even if a senior official of a faction in the government dies of illness, another person will soon take his place, so ancient coups and modern coups must be distinguished.

In modern wars, those who want to launch a coup must not only eliminate the resistance of the military in advance, but also observe the attitude of the public. If the citizens of the Ark are disgusted and afraid of war, or even spontaneously establish organizations to mobilize the people to resist, then this coup will definitely encounter considerable resistance.

However, although the military and the people are both crucial elements, sometimes a coup can succeed even if the military does not support it but the people protest.

"****, its core essence lies in taking advantage of the first strike to attack a massive but poorly prepared enemy."

"Therefore, the primary goal of the coup army is to attack the enemy's central organization, or the senior generals who hold the power to dispatch and command the army. In the Ark, only officers at the level of deputy commander and commander-in-chief have such power. As long as the commander is controlled, the enemy's counterattack will be greatly limited, or even directly collapsed."

"Secondly, in the ****, control of communications and transportation is particularly important."

"If we want to capture a deputy commander-level officer alive, we must first cut off their communications and prevent them from gathering their own faction's followers and troops."

"This is so difficult."

Green sighed slightly.

The speed at which information is disseminated by the Ark can be said to be extremely fast due to the existence of the Internet, mobile phones, radio and television.

If he fails to take down all the top leaders of the hostile parties in a very short period of time, then when the news gets out, he will be identified as a traitor to the Ark, and the remaining factions will naturally unite and send out all their troops to fight him.

If things really develop to that point, violence and bloodshed are inevitable.

Green didn't dare to guarantee that he could win 100%, even though Marianne and Cinderella were standing behind him, but the strength of Ark should not be underestimated. Even if it was the mass-produced Nikki, she could kill him by relying on numbers to block him in the building.

"After much thought, if we take shortcuts, we will inevitably incur higher risks."

"If the coup fails, I will have no choice but to retreat to the surface, and the base I have worked so hard to operate will also face the Ark's clearing out."

"But as long as I play steadily and steadily, there's no way I can lose."

Green pounded his hand in the river.

He didn't have many connections in the central government, and Anderson and Ingrid adopted a laissez-faire policy towards him, allowing him to develop on his own in a remote place, thus saving him the trouble of dealing with those old foxes who were well versed in politics. But because of this, he didn't have many senior officials in the government with whom he could have a say and with whom he had connections, which was his disadvantage.

But he also has his own advantages.

Nikki, as an alternative soldier of the Ark, although they cannot shoot at humans, but with their innate extraordinary physical fitness, even if they don’t shoot, they can still control the situation just by standing there.

It would be enough as long as he could prevent them from pointing their guns at him, turn against him, and escort him silently.

But there is no such cheap "loyalty" in this world.

Whoever is good to Nikki, who is willing to improve their treatment, who is willing to feed them meat every meal, build dormitories, and enact laws to stop discrimination against Nikki, will get their support.

But even so, Nikki would not completely side with him.

Because the Ark still has a last resort, the "Nimph," Green has no doubt that the government's top brass possesses a way to forcibly manipulate the Nimph, thereby interfering with Nikki's thoughts and actions. And if these thousands of mass-produced Nikkis become his enemies, standing in his way of liquidation, how will he, as a commander who has always firmly supported Nikki, deal with this dilemma?

Kill them all for your own selfish desires?

Then what is the difference between him and extreme terrorists like Krau.

"Sure enough, it's very difficult to seize power in the Ark."

"A mass-produced release agent, Nikki's support, internal and external coordination within the top management, the tacit approval of the three major companies, and public support—none of these conditions are missing."

"Only when the right time, right place, and right people are all present can I perfectly take over the Ark's government. If any of these steps go awry, all that awaits me is a defeat and a retreat to the surface."

"So, don't worry."

"I still have plenty of time."

"Besides, we have Gravy here now. She's a genius at making Nikki. If we can get her design drawings and raw materials, we'll have more cards to play."

"A little break before the storm... We've waited this long, so this last bit won't hurt, right?"

"call!"

Wow!

Green emerged from the river and climbed ashore, all wet. As soon as he shook off the water droplets on his body, Lapi came over quickly and handed him a towel.

"Commander, thank you for your hard work."

"Please wipe your hair with a towel, or you'll catch a cold."

"Huh, it's a bit cold indeed. Now that I'm in the sun, I feel even colder."

Green sat on the sun-baked grass and shivered. "The river water in winter is still so cold that it penetrates my heart. I feel like all the blood vessels in my body are burning."

“How was the video?”

"It's all recorded."

"That's good. I'll leave the operation of my account to you, Rabbi."

Green smiled at Rabi and said, "If there's a chance, we can film some more of your battles and upload them so the citizens of the Ark can see us fighting for humanity. Over time, public opinion about us will become even more solid."

"Yes, I understand, Commander."

Lapi walked forward with a smile, gently picked up the towel, and wiped his wet hair while saying, "The commander seems different from before."

"What's different?"

"Now, you seem to be obsessed with controlling power, but when we first met, you weren't interested in these things at all."

"That's because, without power, I can't protect you at all."

Green smiled and shook his head, a hint of helplessness playing on his lips. "Just like when I had to send Marianne away, people without power, status, or background can do nothing but compromise with reality and swallow their anger. That feeling of powerlessness always keeps you awake at night."

"I've learned a lesson from this incident: slogans alone won't protect anyone, Rabbi. Starting from scratch, we must have a trump card: weapons, connections, credibility, and public opinion. Only when we have everything in place can we truly compete with those cunning politicians."

"That's why I want real power. I want to get the power that can truly protect you."

"..."

"But because I did this, I feel like in everyone's eyes, I'm probably not as pure as I used to be."

"So, Rabbi, what kind of person am I in your eyes? Although I've never heard your evaluation, I still want to hear it."

"No matter how things change, the commander is still the commander."

Rabbi gently wiped his muscular back with a towel and said with a smile, "Life is meant to move forward, and during the journey, your views and thoughts on the world are constantly changing."

"And change is a good thing, Commander. This is what I learned from you."

"So in my eyes, the Commander is like the ocean."

“When it’s deep, it’s like the bottom of the sea; when it’s boiling, it’s like a ts

"So you don't have to worry. Just keep surging forward like the ocean. I will always be by your side, Commander."

"Lavi."

Green looked back at Rabi's smiling face.

If she used to give people the impression of a sad and taciturn girl, now she has a familiar feeling.

red……

In a trance, Green vaguely saw a hint of wild red on Labi's body. That was the color of Little Red Riding Hood. The carefree guy was the same. Just standing beside him, he could give people a full sense of security.

Rabbi has now become like Little Red Riding Hood.

When she finally decided not to run away from the ideals that she had failed to realize, a powerful force surged in her empty heart.

"Lavi is indeed the one who inherited Little Red Riding Hood."

"Although I know very well that you and she have never been the same person, you are you and she is she. But now you give me the same feeling as her."

“Powerful, reliable, and reassuring.”

"Little Red Riding Hood would surely feel very relieved if she saw you now."

"She actually has such a worthy successor who hasn't embarrassed her. If she were still here, she'd definitely pat you on the shoulder and say with a smile, 'Wow, this is my Little Red Riding Hood disciple. ' How's that? Amazing, isn't she?'"

"commander……"

Rabbi’s face flushed slightly.

Although she has heard a lot of praise from others over the past few decades, most of the time, she doesn't feel anything.

After all, she is a very special Nikki, a Nikki who has transformed from a mass-produced type to a special type step by step through military merit. What others think is impossible is as simple as eating and drinking water to her. As a result, the former mass-produced Lavi has another name among the Nikki, that is, "Death God".

When Rabi was still a mass-produced Nikki, most of the Nikkis in the same team as Rabi died.

As for why...

Because of her lack of common sense and few negative emotions, Lavi can use the tactics recorded in Nimph perfectly. She has no fear, no emotional ups and downs, is emotionally indifferent, and lacks social skills. For Nikki, these things that should be shortcomings are actually advantages.

After all, as a tool to protect humans, it should be as perfect as a program. However, other mass-produced Nikkis, on the contrary, cannot execute tactics perfectly because they possess human common sense and emotions, and their strength and survival rate are naturally affected.

The most exaggerated one was when the mass-produced Rabi fought Letcher alone on the ground for seven days with the head of his teammate. In the end, he successfully returned to the Ark and received special commendation from the central government.

However, she had heard too many praises and had never felt anything special in her heart.

But now, she felt very happy after being praised several times by her commander.

"commander."

"I will never let Little Red Riding Hood down."

"Well, I believe you, Rabbi."

Green smiled at her, then shivered again. "Ouch, it's so cold! I need to find some clothes quickly. If I get some strange disease on the ground, I'll be locked up and injected and studied by Missilis' crazy scientists when I get back to the Ark."

"Commander, by the way, I think you didn't notice that tomorrow is Christmas..."

"How are you going to spend this year?"

Rabbi blinked, and the hint in his eyes was obvious.

384

Chapter 384: Don’t delay Lao Ma from eating the chicken leg.

"Christmas..."

"You know, Rabbi, every Christmas the Ark creates artificial snow in a small area for the citizens to come and enjoy."

"But after seeing real snowflakes, going back there to celebrate Christmas always feels fake."

Green stood up from the ground, casually rubbed the towel on his head, and said with a smile: "Let's spend this year in the base."

"Yes, alright, Commander."

"Christmas, Master, do you think Santa Claus will put the most powerful legendary gun in my stocking on Christmas Day?"

Nian, who had just walked over, heard the word Christmas and happily interjected.

"Nian, it's time for you to grow up. How can there be a Santa Claus in this world?"

Anis handed the livestreaming phone to Rabi and curled her lips. "In my opinion, the legend of Santa Claus simply stems from a foot fetishist wearing red clothes and a hat who broke into someone's house through the chimney and licked the owner's socks."

"So, Anis's socks are Santa Claus's biggest nemesis!"

"Huh? Why?"

"Because it stinks so much, I think I'll foam at the mouth and pass out on the ground with my legs stretched out and eyes wide open as soon as Santa licks it!"

"Screw you! It doesn't stink!"

Listening to the sounds of Anis and Nian playing.

Green smiled slightly, put on the clothes that Rabi handed him, and then turned his back.

He had actually prepared the Christmas gifts a long time ago.

"Girls, enjoy your Christmas Eve tonight."

"Ah."

"I should also go back and create some festive atmosphere for the base."

……

At night, twilight falls.

The air is slightly chilly.
