Arknights, but the family has fallen again

Chapter 164 Curfew

After Longmen returned to Dayan's control, this mobile city has been intoxicated by the bright lights and its neon lights have almost never been turned off.

almost.

Tonight, Longmen will add another touch to this rare "almost".

Iron towers crowned with dragon-horned helmets were cast on both sides of the road. They were silent, causing the entire city to fall into silence.

Chen Huijie looked at these soldiers, most of whom were from the mainland of Dayan, and the dragon horn-shaped decorations on their helmets, still in a trance.

Wei Yanwu rarely mobilized the army, let alone the opportunity to do so legitimately like now. Therefore, upon witnessing this scene at his familiar doorstep, Chen Huijie truly felt... the shadow of war.

"County...Superintendent, give the order." A soldier said vaguely in the middle of "Princess".

The soldiers stationed at Longmen were a bit more complex than those of an ordinary frontier city: a rotating cast of soldiers from all corners of Great Yan, a handful of soldiers who intermittently followed "Yan Wu", another handful of soldiers loyal to "Wei Yan Wu", and, of course, the intrigues deliberately introduced by the court.

The soldier's face was hidden under his dragon-horned helmet. Chen Huijie seemed to remember his voice, but also seemed not to.

Whose soldier is he obeying?

"...Curfew." Chen Huijie's voice came from the tactical headset.

After receiving the order from the "Superintendent", soldiers in various parts of Longmen, as solemn as iron towers, completed the blockade work in an orderly manner.

Among them, the assets of the Shi Huaiya family were the most tightly blocked.

You call this a curfew?

The Shi Huaiya family's assets are spread all over Longmen, including the slums.

The drone faithfully recorded the scene near the office, and PRTS reported to him according to the priority arranged by Ott in advance.

Otto was stunned.

Wei Yanwu was clearing obstacles for Chen Huijie.

He...really wants to "pass on the throne"!

However, as the Otto plan progressed, Wei Yanwu was destined to get stuck halfway.

If you walk halfway along this road... you'll have a lot of fun.

"Doctor?" Yaye's cat ears twitched and he looked up.

Ott lay half-reclining on a medical bed, his upper body naked. Several electrode patches were placed in his abdominal cavity. While working on his terminal, he seemed to be in a trance.

"Let's stop the inspection for now." Ott said to the ceiling, "PRTS, notify the Longmen Office not to actively interfere, and in principle, not to shelter unrelated people."

Even before Ott finished speaking, PRTS began responding: "The event has been logged and is being broadcast."

"Relevant personnel, including Hellagur, are rushing to the combat meeting room."

Yaye was startled by this abnormal behavior. Knowing nothing about it, she quickly said to Ott, "Dr. Ott! If you get up now, Dr. Kal'tsit..."

"It's just a routine matter. She knows my physical condition better than I do."

Not to mention you.

Ott peeled off the electrode patch and got out of bed. He put his clothes back on as he walked, and finally put on his coat in the hallway.

A sense of familiarity arises spontaneously.

hum.

Temporarily docked at Facility 14, assisting with construction, the Rhodes Island's operating noise was significantly quieter than when in motion. Ott felt that the "white noise" echoing through the corridors, echoing with his own footsteps, had become an indispensable part of his life in just a few days.

Just a few days?

The PRTS camera watched Otto walk into the conference room. While saving a new document in the deepest part of the database, it called the camera in the conference room to start a new round of recording.

So... it seems that Kal'tsit only had sex with Otto in Hamlet?

Did you expect this too?! Cat!

At this moment, in the Rhodes Island combat meeting room.

"Landing in the core city now may cause higher casualties than expected." Ace crossed his arms and said pertinently.

Ott explained: "The projected maximum casualties already take this scenario into account."

It can't be higher than expected.

"Besides, we don't need to capture the core city in this raid."

Ott waved his hand, and PRTS projected a blueprint onto the large screen in the operations conference room.

"This..." Scout was a little surprised. He said, "This is the structural diagram of the core city!"

The operators all looked at the unfamiliar white-haired Hippogriff in the conference room.

His hair and beard were all white, typical features of old age, yet his face was slightly smooth. Clearly, he was one of those gods whose biological lifespan could be described as "lengthy."

"This is Mr. Hellagur," Kelsey introduced. "Following the... incident in Chernobog, the Azazel Clinic chose to cooperate with us."

The White-haired Hippogriff said, "We just have a common aspiration."

There is no cooperation yet.

Ott didn't comment, he nodded and pointed to somewhere on the blueprint.

"The optimal plan is still under discussion. To prevent it from being difficult to resolve if it fails, we need to slow down the pace of the core city."

That way, Ott has plenty of backup plans to use—to prevent himself from rolling over.

"The operation is simple: destroy part of the Core City's hub, forcing it to waste two to three hours refocusing on its target."

W, holding his head in his hands, commented, "In other words, it's a bomb?"

“When it comes to action, it’s indeed the case.”

The blueprint on the screen gradually transformed into a model, and one wheel hub was thoughtfully marked in red by PRTS.

"Why not just blow up the entire core city?" W was eager to try.

"Not enough time." Otto waved his hand, and PRTS moved the model on the screen away, marking all the hubs of the core city.

A vast expanse.

"Besides, what really wastes Tallulah's time isn't the slight slowdown after a broken wheel, but re-locking the gantry."

"If it's just like this, there's no need to call anyone in the middle of the night, right? With your bad temper, if everything was as planned, you would definitely tell us to come in advance!" W pouted, she looked around, and swallowed the rest of the sentence: I'm ready to close my eyes and go to Hamlet!

Ott nodded and said, "There have been some minor emergencies in Longmen, and I have activated some backup plans."

A small probability emergency, right?

Di Ling pushed open the door and saw Otto in the office where Du Bin and Lin Guang were already waiting.

Through the mouth of the Earth Spirit, Ott told Dubin and the others, "This 'curfew' will inevitably bring about a new round of reshuffles in Longmen, and a large number of physical industries will change hands. However, based on strategic considerations, I will not focus all my energy on acquiring industries."

"At this point in time, the funds we can freely dispose of are temporarily limited. The general forecast of the international situation will lead to inflated values of certain industries. At the same time, we have a large gap in raw materials for future work."

"Therefore, I leave you with a guiding takeover recommendation..."

Good man, you are trying to poach people by exploding the wheels! ?

Chapter 3: Prelude to Patricide (k)

Below the elevator, a low-flying aircraft was waiting.

"Rhodes Island's uniforms are so uncomfortable!" W cursed as he put on his last self-defense dagger fixed belt.

Looking around, a belt passed through the lower edge of the hill, arranging the detonator "staff" and a large number of source stone explosives in a very regular pattern on her delicate body.

Aren’t you enjoying it?

Ott, chomping on a chocolate bar to replenish his blood sugar, stuffed one hand in his pocket, operating the terminal to call up the records. He commented rudely, "The PRTS records show that this was your old equipment. Feeling uncomfortable is a good thing—it means you're developing."

W was stunned at first, then he flew into a rage and shouted, "Stinky otter!"

She wanted to throw something, but hesitated for a moment. Finally, she took out a potato from her waist bag as a hidden backup energy source and threw it hard.

This micro-expression...

Are you thinking about my life safety?

Or are you considering the impact of dropping a bomb on me?

Logically speaking, the latter is more likely...but W has always been awkward.

Otto was a little surprised. When he was about to catch the potato, a heartbreakingly pale hand stopped the potato.

The almost uncontrollable murderous intent overflowed from the nun's scarlet eyes.

"How dare you hurt my Lord!"

Otto immediately used both his mind and words to interrupt the ghost shark's dangerous speech.

He put his hand under the side of the headscarf, stroked the nun's long, smooth hair, and said, "Thank you very much."

It's a ghost shark.

Ott judged so.

Laurentina's body is still under the influence of the liquid Originium in her spinal cord, and her personality is unstable. Currently, the dominant personality for most of the day is "Ghost Shark" rather than "Shark".

"My lord..." The deep-sea hunter's pale face softened a little, and his wine-red eyes almost dripped with tears.

In the peaceful environment, W's awkward childish nature took over for a moment, and she almost blurted out, "Yes! I'm going to kill him!"

Almost exporting.

W's expression changed, as if he heard something.

Finally, she turned her head away and said to Ghost Shark insincerely, "I'm sorry, I just wanted to play with Dr. Ott and didn't mean to hurt him. If it makes you feel uneasy, it's entirely my fault."

After saying this, she gave Otto a cute look with a bit of inexplicable guilt.

……

……

……

Who is this!?

Where’s the W!?

Otto was also surprised that his words were really useful - he immediately revised the "usage plan" for W in his mind and broadened her application scenarios.

Ghost Shark responded to W's "apology" in her usual ethereal voice: "My Lord commands me to forgive you."

The nun is God's bride = Otto is Ghost Shark's husband = Otto is his own.

And W's "attack" on Otto just now was undoubtedly equivalent to an attack on himself!

The nun seemed to have positioned herself as the victim of this scene based on a strange logic.

The Sarkaz girl's nose twitched and her brows were almost locked.

Humph! Don't bother with a psychopath!

W She turned around and climbed onto the aircraft.

And Ott said silently in her heart: "Strictly speaking, Ghost Shark's current condition is a mental illness."

Even though Ott couldn't see his face at all, W still winked and responded to him in his heart: "Who asked you!?"

As the bickering mode started again, W stopped going and was no longer willing to go, and began to delve into and analyze his current psychology.

As the other operators gradually took their positions, the elevator slowly lifted the aircraft onto the deck. After several hours of flight, the aircraft would drop W and his team at the designated location to begin the raid.

Through W's eyes, Otto looked at the wilderness outside the aircraft.

The moonlight is like water, illuminating the earth.

The same moonlight shines on the Dragon Gate.

After a brief standoff, the Shi Huaiya family's "private security" surrendered to the little tiger in front of them: "Miss, the master ordered us to open the door."

"..." Shi Huaiya felt complicated, "Just do it."

Indeed, it was her decision to volunteer to come here, and Shi Huaiya actually had some vague guesses about what she was experiencing.
