Arknights, but the family has fallen again

Preparations need to be made in advance.

The Ursus people have become accustomed to Rhodes Island's constraints, accustomed to Rhodes Island's punishments, and will also become accustomed to Rhodes Island's orders. In the future, they will become even more accustomed to... joining Rhodes Island's army.

Slip of the tongue refers to a militia that is spontaneously organized by the community and prefers to purchase weapons, equipment and instructors from specific companies.

In the days that followed, these refugees would be "cared for" by the militia and the Sarkaz in unusually rough ways. Through beatings and kicks, they would learn how to take care of themselves...how to accept and nurture their bodies as infected.

If they can't do it, then the "little dad" will teach them a lesson with a stick.

While Kjerag's natural environment wasn't particularly good, it was free of natural disasters, and the impact of Manjuyuan's abstract theocracy on the population was relatively limited. Enthiotis naturally couldn't empathize with Ursus's miraculous character, nurtured by both man and nature.

Dr. Ott is the commander of the field department and a leading scholar in Originium. He can easily be dragged away by others for various reasons.

However, Enthyodis also hoped to see this... Otherwise, how could he see Rhodes Island clearly?

"You are finally here." Snow Leopard is full of wisdom.

Kelsey also nodded slightly: "I'm coming."

"Then the contract..."

"Regarding Enshiya joining the Field Affairs Department..."

"what?"

"Ok?"

Enthyotis was a little surprised: "Enshia joined the Field Affairs Department?"

Otto actually said this to him, but at that time Ensi Odis judged it to be "disturbing people's minds."

"Shouldn't we wait until your technical officer comes to sign the contract?" Kelsey was puzzled. "Doc Otter has already finalized it."

After thinking it over again, Enchiotis felt a little relieved - Rhodes Island's field department was not entirely a dangerous activity.

Besides, since Kal'tsit came to find him, as a parent, he could easily ruin this matter.

But, do you want it?

He asked, "What do you mean Doc Otter is finalized?"

Kel'tsit handed over Enshia's application form and said matter-of-factly, "Rhode Island Pharmaceuticals has never overturned Doc Otter's decision."

Why is that?

"...Speaking of which, why is Doc Otter the head of the field department?" Enchiodis already had a vague guess.

"The Field Department doesn't have a true director," Kal'tsit said. "Los Angeles Pharmaceuticals' Field Department consists of two branches: the Operations Department and the Operator Training Center."

Fighting and practicing are easy to understand.

Enthiotis nodded.

"The Operations Department's basic operational organization is the 'Action Team,' typically consisting of an experienced team leader and eleven operators. These elite operators provide decision-making support to Rhodes Island's leaders through a simple majority vote."

In other words, it's a military democracy based on combat effectiveness... just like Kjerag's Three-Tribes Council.

The leader of Rhode Island Pharmaceuticals...? Isn't that Carters?

No matter how powerful she was, it was impossible for her to establish a professional organization like Rhodes Island at her age. If that was the case, then this power must have come from inheritance, or...

Enchiodis probed, "Then the elite operators will surely favor a commander who can lead them to victory."

From one victory to another, until the kingdom is overthrown, as it was in Corsica.

Kelsey nodded. "That's why Rhode Island Pharmaceuticals has never overturned Doc Otter's decision."

However, during the Tower of Babel period and the original Rhodes Island period, there were girls who overturned Otto's decision.

Faced with the rebellious Sarkaz, Otto had already accepted this world and could not bear to kill him. So Theresa overturned that decision and killed the rebellious Sarkaz.

During his time in Rhodes Island…Utt wasn't just the decision-makers who were overthrown; he was the one who was overthrown. Fortunately, Utt was able to let go of Hakimi, otherwise he would have been unable to escape the gravity of Precious.

Kal'tsit closed her eyes and became more determined.

Although Otto is no longer close to the macroscopic Terra due to his youth, he still regards the shining individuals as objects with which he can communicate and exchange.

He still sticks to his own technical route.

The ungrateful Snow Leopard interrupted Kel'tsit's reverie and asked, "What is the relationship between Miss Amiya and Doc Otter?"

……

Kal'tsit was silent - because of her own identity and actions, if she answered "adopted daughter", she would have done something bad, and a very, very, very bad thing.

For example, it's like what Lot's two daughters did to their father in the Bible...

But if we don't use this word...it seems to be worse in a practical sense.

"I understand." Enthyotis nodded seriously.

No, what do you understand?

Kal'tsit's silence seemed like a tacit agreement to Enchiodis.

He asked about the relationship between Amiya and Otto in order to rule out a certain possibility.

Ott actually controls the violence department of Rhodes Island Pharmaceuticals and is supported by everyone. If the nominal leader of Rhodes Island is related to Ott by blood, there is also the possibility that Ott is acting as the "Uncle King"'s agent.

But even now, without revealing their identities, they were unwilling to even say "adoptive father and adopted daughter"... Such a cautious attitude...

Can't go wrong.

That little rabbit might indeed be the leader of Rhode Island Pharmaceuticals, and perhaps emotionally she is indeed their adopted daughter...

But the identity of a company employee and loyalty to the head of state are two different things.

Ott and Kal'tsit have no children yet. If, for the sake of temporary convenience, Amiya is positioned as Ott's adopted daughter, a series of inheritance problems may arise afterwards.

It would be better to keep it vague from the beginning.

In this way, whether Gaul is restored or Ote continues to go into exile, the organization will not be easily torn apart.

Enthyodis understood.

No, what the hell are you doing?!

Chapter 265: The Dragon Bone is Ready

The tall Liberian man said in disbelief, "Ensiódis Shivaash! Is your brain broken?! Or did Rhodes Island use some strange Originium technique on you?!"

"You're actually planning to propose such an offer!?"

"No way! As the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of Kalan Trade, I firmly refuse to sign this memorandum!"

1097年1月20日14:58:56，十四号设施，临时渡口。

Saying such things to the co-founder right after getting off the boat... As expected of Nosis.

"You'll understand once you understand." Enchiodis had fully anticipated Nothis's reaction. He didn't refute it, but simply said, "Take the necessary equipment and go to the Rhodes Island ship together."

Nosis was surprised and asked, "Are you... serious?"

He took out the memo again and looked at it.

As Nothis walked and flipped through the memo, Enthiotis led the way. Perhaps this habit of reading while walking and using peripheral vision to check the road was one of the reasons why Nothis wore glasses?

"Yeah, seriously."

"And the idea of bringing in foreign forces in Kjerag?!" Nosis complained. "If they establish an office, grant them the power to form an autonomous region for the infected, and also give them the power to monitor factory workers for infection, it would be tantamount to allowing Rhodes Island Pharmaceuticals to freely expand in Kjerag!"

"Not to mention giving priority to purchasing their medicines and insurance!" Nosis bit his fingernails: "In this way..."

"Strictly speaking, Rhode Island Pharmaceuticals is a group of Doctors Without Borders."

"You don't believe that nonsense, do you?" Nosis said, "A giant enterprise that has grown to this level cannot do without the support of the government!"

Yes, but their regime is gone.

Enthyotis was very confident in his discovery.

Of course, from a certain perspective, even if he was misled by Otto, his guess was not entirely wrong.

"They even have quite a few Kjerags," Enthiotis said, changing the subject. "I even saw Steward children among the newcomers they're training."

"Stewart..." Nosis quickly recalled this family.

In addition to butler, this word can also refer to many jobs, such as flight attendant, food server, etc. However, if it is used as a family name with pride, it is most likely to refer to "butler".

"We... the Steward family in southern Kjerag, right?" Nosis asked. "That kid... I remember him being a guide for merchants and a model for product displays."

"As expected of an 'Edward Wise', he's a truly qualified archivist!"

"You know I hate that—and, can you at least use the word historian?!"

"Haha!" Ensioudis's pent-up stress had eased slightly over the past few days. He pointed to the Rhodes Island ship, also anchored at the ferry, and said, "Right here."

“What a big guy!”

And... this shape is very unfamiliar! That device is a natural disaster warning device, and... a mining device? An exhaust pipe from a refining facility!?

Early warning of natural disasters, autonomous mining and refining capabilities...

This thing! If it cruises on a fixed track, it has complete self-sustaining capabilities!

"It's not as good as a proper moving city, is it?"

"That's why I feel so emotional!" Nosis sighed and said, "This is a ship!"

He estimated: "Over 500 meters long... no, about 600 meters! The width is hard to tell from this angle... The height is about 140 meters..."

Nosis turned around and asked, "What's its speed?"

Enthyodis stroked his chin. "I remember the data they gave me, saying the maximum speed is about 80 kilometers per hour?"

"It's like a mobile city in the making..." Nosis sighed. "No wonder they chose to build a new ship. If they continue to modify this ship, other countries might consider it a moving piece of land and ban it from entering!"

Enchiodis, you really found a treasure!

Boats and mobile plots of construction, they will!

Enthyodis said, "Let's go and see their new ship."

Nosis followed.

At the entrance to the construction site, several Sarkaz, looking surprisingly energetic, were guarding it. Each of them was leaning on a large sword, and their uniform uniforms and long, prominent horns made them look quite heroic.

"Wait! You need to wear a helmet and earplugs when you go in!"

"Idiot! Call for a hard hat!"

“Why not give it to me…”

“Just a visitor!”

Sarkaz...?

Nothis glanced at them and put them on together with Enthyodis.

The construction elevator descended for a long time, and the surroundings gradually darkened. But after passing a certain peak, a large number of lights illuminated the area as bright as day again.

The noise from the power layer itself reached their brains through their earplugs, through the elevator floor, and through the bones of the two people.

Enthyodis and Nothis had certainly visited many mobile cities, but they had rarely approached the power layer. Enthyodis was fine, having fully experienced the piercing noise during his few days living in Rhodes Island, but Nothis was still somewhat uncomfortable.

Following the light, two long metal pillars had been removed and were sitting in the center of the light, waiting for further processing.

A man in a Rhode Island uniform stood there, holding a tablet terminal in one hand.

His silver hair even reflected a metallic luster under the light, and you could vaguely see the black ear feathers among his hair.

"Is he Otto from Rhodes Island?" Nosis asked loudly.

"Dr. Ott," Enthyotis added.

The man seemed to ignore the noise from the power layer and directly heard the conversation between the two people. He turned around and waved.

"Doc Otter! What's going on!?" SilverAsh asked after getting closer.

Otto put away the tablet, took out two tactical headsets from the side, and motioned them to put them on.
