Arknights, but the family has fallen again

Ott's mouth twitched.

"No thanks, I'll take a look at the design plan I requested yesterday."

"Ah..." She stammered, crossed her fingers, and said, "Doc, you don't have much memory right now, so it might be difficult to understand the plan directly... How about I explain it to you?"

No new folders have been created yet, right?

Otto didn't point it out. After all, the deadline he gave at the beginning was not today.

If the plan that Klushier verbally gave satisfied Otto, he wouldn't mind letting Klushier go.

"Why don't we start now?"

Kluciere smiled as if she had been pardoned. She said, "Doctor, look, this is the structural diagram of Rhodes Island."

That almost "Doc Otter" turned back into a doctor.

The diagram is incomplete, with some "magical blanks that will be used later".

But it is enough to explain the design of Kal'sil.

"Here, here, and here! By connecting these areas, we can create a prison large enough to hold 5,000 people in a short period of time!"

Otto looked up: How can this be a prison?

"Have you considered their sleeping positions?" Otto asked politely.

Rhodes Island has a multi-layered design, and its size is comparable to that of a mobile city. Its maximum population capacity is similar to that of some small mobile towns.

But what Klushier had just said meant that these 5,000 prisoners would have to stand shoulder to shoulder in the area she was talking about...

That's called a mass grave.

"And I don't need to detain 5,000 people at once."

"I need a prison that can hold two to three hundred thugs for a short period of time."

“This is a requirement for the prison body.”

"Besides, I'm going to need one or two extra rooms in this prison."

"They are rooms prepared for management personnel, placed on the periphery, so there is no need to worry about escape issues."

"Eh?"

"By the way, I mentioned all these things in yesterday's document."

So you don't even look at it, right?

Ott said coldly.

Kluchil felt something was wrong, and the Oil Demon immediately hugged Ott's thigh and cried, "Dr. Ott! We were studying the pneumatic rifle you designed yesterday!"

Look, he was trying to sell the treadmill before, but now he starts to curry favor with others!

Chapter 38: General Winter, Winter Soldier, Winter...Captain?

If one had any idea of what was going on, it would have been easy to see that Otto was preparing a cell for Tallulah.

As for the other spaces, they are there for you to use since they are already here. After all, who knows when they might be used?

"Since you said you were researching the gas-operated rifle yesterday, what results did you get?"

But Hilton perked up.

She brought a rugged weapon that looked very "Waaaagh" to the table.

The simple rifle body is a little better looking than the previous airborne machine gun, but only a little.

This "finely crafted," "rough," "pneumatic rifle" made on a lathe clearly lacks the refinement of its design. It's better than an airborne machine gun, but it's still a technical demonstration product, and actual use can be a bit of a headache.

Led by Klushier, this was created by the engineering department in one day... The only thing that matters is that it can run.

It is connected to a liquid nitrogen tank via a makeshift hose, which is currently placed on a simple backpack.

Each time the trigger is pulled, a fixed amount of liquid nitrogen is released, which then expands rapidly under simple heating, driving the bullet to burst.

On Earth, this isn't a very smart design.

But the difficulties are: first, this weapon lacks any competitiveness in performance; second, in terms of materials science, it poses a huge challenge to the materials on Earth.

However, in the same track as Terra, its biggest competitor in terms of performance is Columbia's fully automatic crossbow...

Next, Originium, as one of the ultimate creations of a second-level or even third-level civilization, not only brought Originium disease to the beast-eared girls, but also opened up an unobstructed road for the wonderful Terran materials science.

"It still needs more adjustments in terms of caliber and bullets, and the connection method between the rifle and the liquid nitrogen backpack has yet to be explored... But the most serious problem at the moment is: the preparation of liquefied gas."

Kluchil was a little confused: "To be honest, I'm not very clear about the role of this weapon."

"While it effectively reduces energy consumption during frontline combat, allowing operators to focus their mental energy on aiming, its reloading and maintenance are just as complex as other Originium guns."

The Oil Demon was temporarily confused by the liquefied gas tank of this rifle and still classified it as an Originium gun.

Currently, it is indeed considered a "Source Stone Gun," requiring someone with Originium skills to manually manufacture and fill it with liquefied gas, and also requiring someone with Originium skills to manually maintain it...

Ote nodded, but didn't answer Klushier's question. He simply said, "In terms of technology, it must be as simple and easy to produce as possible, and the working hours on the production line must be as short as possible. As for the liquefied gas tanks and gas pipelines, we will research them in two directions..."

"First, don't worry about how to independently produce liquefied gas. Focus on making the tubes and tanks able to withstand higher pressures and lower temperatures, completely removing the Originium circuit. If the liquefied gas is exhausted, simply replace it with a new one."

Kulushil suddenly realized and felt a chill all over her body.

"The second type is for elite units that have mastered the corresponding Originium techniques. It can still continuously produce liquefied gas through the Originium circuit."

Simply put, these are conventional weapons that can be used on a large scale without mastering Originium techniques, and elite weapons that require mastering Originium techniques.

In reality, elite weapons still require the design of more powerful firearms, but we can put this aside for now - time is limited.

Klucie swallowed and hinted, "Doc Otter, do you... realize what you are doing?"

“It might go against Rhode Island’s philosophy of staying out of politics.”

Ott said: "Before we discuss the word purpose, you should first explore the meaning behind the purpose."

Kal'tsit diligently upholds Rhodes Island's neutrality, attempting to distance it from all political affairs, hoping that at some point in the future, Rhodes Island could serve her mission as a "benign and neutral third party." This is undoubtedly reflected in the Black Hole Agreement, a framework treaty for the future joint maintenance of the Terran megastructure.

But her efforts were essentially futile.

This pharmaceutical company, which has repeatedly interfered in the internal affairs of other countries, has only maintained its neutral position on paper.

Ursus, Great Yan, Casimir, Victoria, Columbia, Bolivar, Sargon... and the fate of a small country like Kjerag hangs on the doctor's thoughts.

This neutrality is more like a fig leaf, and the top leaders of all parties involved in the Black Hole Agreement almost remember how Rhodes Island interfered with them.

To put it more bluntly, with Otto's development, Rhodes Island's development is bound to be so huge that it cannot be measured as a simple "pharmaceutical company".

It is so huge that even the "neutrality" on paper cannot be maintained.

In this case, there is no need to be too strict with this so-called "purpose".

"She woke me up, she begged me to take the helm again, she should have realized where I was heading."

Amiya's voice came from the corridor: "Doc Otter! Your files!"

She took out all the documents that Ott had asked her to copy.

Ott patted Klushier's shoulder and said, "Adhere to neutrality and stay out of politics... It exists as a tool to achieve its goals."

He carefully considered his words and said, "Among the many operators of Rhodes Island, you should be able to better understand Rhodes Island's purpose."

Weird.

At best, Korthir could better understand the purpose of the Tower of Babel.

But while Kal'tsit certainly put a lot of effort into the Tower of Babel, it itself is just another tool that Kal'tsit uses to fulfill her "destiny."

In her long life as a tool cat, Theresa was almost Kal'tsit's closest friend...but the fact that they became "friends" was itself a very subtle irony.

The six Sarkaz heroes who rebelled against the coalition forces, the white devil wearing a black crown, and a little cat who has worked tirelessly for over 10,000 years to protect the beast-eared girls from the beast-eared girls.

Oh, by the way, before the two became friends, Kitty Cat had once again gathered forces and destroyed Kazdel, the spiritual home of the Sarkaz people.

All I can say is that Theresa truly understood sadness, and believed in the future she had planned for the Sarkaz from the bottom of her heart, and put it into practice...

It's not hard to understand why many Sarkaz don't understand Theresa's choice at all: Kazdel has been destroyed time and time again, and peace? Peace at all?

Their (correct) children will sleep until tomorrow, so what does it have to do with me whether they wake up or not?

Can you give it to me?

This is because they don’t understand Kal’tsit.

If they knew Kal'tsit well enough... they would only understand Theresa even less!

Ott was in a playful mood. He picked up Amiya from under his arms and spun her around and around: "Amiya is the best!"

"Doooooc otter!" The little donkey laughed and fluttered his feet, stretching out the tone: "Let me down!"

Seeing this heartwarming scene, Lucille felt a little scared: Fortunately, I didn’t really sell the treadmill to him!

She sighed.

Despite his amnesia, Otto is just as difficult as before... or rather, cold.

He no longer spared the warmth of the sun for his warriors, but he still wanted to throw winter upon his enemies.

Winter...enemy?

Krosier glanced at the pneumatic gun.

So this series is called "Winter General"?

No, no, no, it's still too weird for every soldier to have a general in his hand...

"Winter Soldier"?

not bad!

Chapter 39: Foul-mouthed Pretty Girl, W! Join!

Life on a landship is inevitably noisy.

The tracks rolled over the wasteland, some flat, some muddy, and crushed the rocks, some hard, some fragile... along with the frantic heartbeat of the power core, these rhythms resonated into a kind of background noise throughout the landship.

It was not until the aircraft took off and the background noise of the ship was replaced by the background noise of the aircraft that Otto suddenly realized that he had left Rhodes Island.

"Doctor! It'll take a while to reach the Dragon Gate. You can definitely take a break! I'm a very stable pilot!"

Driver Dylan boasted like this.

This was actually a good idea, since Ott had other things to deal with.

"It's troublesome."

"Huh?" Dylan was stunned.

He wasn't talking from the headset! ?

It seems strange rumors have spread.

"My Lord..." The nun caught the word "rest" and looked at Otto impatiently.

Ott breathed a sigh of relief. "Since I can't handle Rhodes Island's internal affairs, it's time to talk to W." Besides intelligence sharing and the hacked brain, there are other things I need to hand over to W.

To be precise, other people.

He nodded and lay on the ghost shark's white thighs.

This was the first time he had enjoyed a lap pillow while sober. The scent of the soap touched Ott's heart, and his cheeks could feel a special softness and firmness.

As Kal'tsit requested, Ott brought a tactical team with him, mostly composed of "new operators" in uniform.

Meteor, Frost Leaf, and Jessica also brought several prototypes of the Winter Soldier rifle with different ideas and participated in Otto's security work.

Ghost Shark still stays with Otto as his patient, while Huang is sent by Kal'tsit to prevent "possible harmful behavior from Ghost Shark."

Admittedly, in Kal'tsit's eyes, this is somewhat necessary.

But not everyone knows what a "deep-sea hunter" is.

This caused some subtle misunderstandings for Huang, who had never met Otto.

The gossip about Ott and Kel'tsit has been a hot topic these days. Ghost Shark has been inseparable from Ott since his return, and some gossipers have deliberately spread the story of the night of the 23rd (end of Chapter 21)...
