Rhode Island Park Project

There are already a certain number of residents and businesses settled in the fourth urban area. Although the main population is definitely Tara people, filling up an urban area will not be a matter of a day or two.

The towering control tower of the aerospace center has appeared in sight, and Luo Hang glanced at the time.

34 minutes, we should be able to arrive within 40 minutes, which is completely within expectations.

From a distance, you can see various types of security clearing the way. The verification information on the car screen is refreshed almost every minute, and armed drones and guards can be seen everywhere.

Without encountering any trouble, Luo Hang and his party drove smoothly into the aerospace center.

After getting off the car, Krosier appeared in front of him in a hurry.

"Why are you guys so late?!"

"There are still several minutes left."

Luo Hang acted quite relaxed, but Holhaiya's gaze involuntarily fell on the vast apron in the distance, which was like a large building block, an extremely eye-catching and very regular pure black rectangle.

Chapter 403: Hol Haiya: How could I possibly...refuse?

What is this?

Holhaiya is a little confused at the moment.

According to Luo Hang, they should be here to watch the first flight of the aircraft today, but the black square in front of her really can't be seen in any way that can be connected with the aircraft.

Not to mention the thrusters and wings, even the head and tail could not be distinguished, and there was no landing gear. The entire black block was just placed directly on the apron, which even made Hol Haiya think deeply about whether the real aircraft had not yet left the warehouse.

"It's almost time."

Luo Hang stopped in front of a huge glass wall.

As an emerging young city, Rhode Island does not have as many cumbersome procedures and processes as older countries in many matters.

Perhaps such characteristics cannot be maintained forever, but at least for now, such a simple and efficient style is undoubtedly comfortable.

Moreover, since most of the senior executives are acquaintances, there is not so much hypocritical courtesy and intrigue when they meet.

However, the main person in charge of the aerospace center this time was not an acquaintance, but was promoted from the grassroots staff. Keluchil also played the role of a senior to a large extent, making it easier for Luo Hang to get to know the people below.

As time passed, the chattering of the crowd gradually died down.

The leaders could not hear the reports and operational information from the tower from their observation seats. All they could see was that when the clock struck 9:00 a.m., the huge black block on the apron started moving on time.

There was no flame, no air wave, and no sound. The black rectangle slowly left the ground almost silently and continued to rise towards the blue sky.

Hol Haiya narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at the other people around him. He found that most people did not show any surprise on their faces. It was obvious that they had known about it for a long time.

But she didn't understand, or rather, couldn't understand.

Clearly understanding that Luo Hang was demonstrating his strength to her, Hol Haiya had no intention of asking any questions. She just held her breath and looked at the scene outside the glass wall.

Flying higher and higher.

Ok.

Broken into hundreds of small pieces.

Ok.

They were reassembled into various strange shapes.

Ok.

Optical camouflage, completely invisible.

Ok.

What the hell is this /*Colombian expletive*/ thing?!

"A single-person aircraft without a propulsion meson engine. Looks pretty good, doesn't it?"

Hol Haiya turned around and saw Luo Hang looking at her with a smile in his eyes.

This guy thought I would just take the bait?

Hol Haiya looked at Luo Hang sharply for two seconds.

"Would you like to introduce me to him?"

She smiled sweetly and obediently.

I've been humiliated so many times, so one more time doesn't matter.

After all, that thing is really attractive, especially for the feathered serpent that wants to fly freely in the sky.

Although she could control the wind to fly, it was only a short-distance flight, and the higher the altitude, the more physical strength and energy required would increase exponentially.

I've already paid so much. Even if I want to run away in the future, it's necessary to get more good things from this guy, right?

As for now,

It’s just one more time of submission. Today I am Lord Luo Hang’s most obedient pet!

Luo Hang showed a playful smile.

"Sure. Each of the small blocks you see is a single-person aircraft measuring 3 x 3 x 3 meters. Even if you exclude the facilities in the mezzanine, there's still plenty of space inside.

And because it's intended to be a long-distance aircraft, a large portion of its volume is used as energy. The actual meson engine isn't actually that big..."

He raised the corners of his mouth without concealing it, then leaned forward slightly with his hands behind his back, close to Holhaiya's ear, and whispered in Miss Quetzalcoatl's ear with a leisurely smile:

"The nano-enhanced single-person meson engine is also being researched, right?"

With a well-behaved smile on his face, Holhaiya listened to the whispers in his ear, and the light in his eyes kept flashing.

This guy is seducing me, absolutely.

How could I possibly...

"If there is any progress, please tell me as soon as possible~ My dear, master~"

How could I possibly bear it!

"hehe--"

Luo Hang chuckled and raised his head.

Feeding and training pets are both technical jobs.

Just like the simplest project, when training a dog, asking the dog to sit down and shake hands, simply saying it and forcing it will hardly have much effect.

The truly effective method is to use food as bait first, and then give rewards after the dog performs the command action. In this way, every time the dog hears the command, it will automatically associate the behavior with the reward and will consciously know what to do.

Watching Miss Quetzalcoatl's eyes flickering constantly because of her strong self-esteem that has not yet been erased, and at the same time having to put on the appearance of a good pet obeying her master because of the bait that she cannot refuse, although there is no extra expression, you can just feel the humiliation in her eyes, which is really pleasant.

"That depends on your performance."

Luo Hang patted Miss Quetzalcoatl's shoulder like a leader.

Hor Haiya's teeth were almost broken, but she still showed a charming smile.

"Okay~"

It’s just being fucked. You’ll get used to it after a few times.

At worst, just drink a few more glasses of water.

After throwing out the bait, Luo Hang simply ignored Miss Quetzalcoatl and turned to talk about work with others. However, Hol Haiya, who felt that she was just being flirted with and then thrown away, still had to follow Luo Hang with a standard smile on her face, grinding her back teeth over and over again.

I will endure!

Regardless of how long it will take to realize the single-person organization of the meson engine, the significance of the aircraft that took off this time is very obvious.

It is 3×3×3 meters in size, can take off and land at will, and is equipped with optical invisibility. Even if it lands in the backyard of an ordinary person's house, it may not attract the attention of others.

It can be said that as long as you have received a plane ticket, no matter where you are, you can board a flight to Rhode Island anytime and anywhere.

Moreover, the main transportation direction of the aerospace center now is the Tara people of the Duke of Wellington. But after finishing Victoria's journey in Rhodes Island and turning its attention to wider areas, the significance of this is self-evident.

Rhodes Island's main target residents are the infected, and most of the infected are people whose living conditions are not very good or who are not easily allowed to leave the area.

He believed that such a plane ticket... no, such a ticket to the paradise would become something that many people would scramble for in the future.

Chapter 404: War Begins

Duchy of Caister.

The Duke is still in a bad mood today.

It was not until now that she was sure that she had been tricked by Wellington.

Although they seemed to be on the same side regarding the issues of Rhodes Island and Shihuaiya, in reality, just like the current situation in Victoria, there was no alliance between the three grand dukes.

But what she couldn't accept was that this time Wellington would rather let Rhode Island have an easy time and let her suffer the loss.

Although this incident didn't completely break up her relationship with Columbia's companies, it did lead to the interruption of many previously planned collaborations. Furthermore, the previous failed attack on Rhodes Island had allowed her old rival Windermere to take advantage. Furthermore, with the recent accusations that she was harming the Steam Knights, the voices supporting the King's revival were becoming increasingly rampant.

The Duke of Caister felt that the menopause he had passed was coming back.

"We can't go on like this!"

Duke Caister came to the conference table and slapped the table for the first time in a long time.

The Duke, who was being watched by everyone, did not sit down. Instead, he supported the table with one hand, bent his waist slightly, and scanned everyone around the conference table with sharp eyes like a hunting beast.

"We've already wasted too much energy and time on our entanglement with Rhodes Island and Shi Huaiya. This situation must end as quickly as possible."

Duke of Caister said this in a decisive tone.

The people in the room looked at each other, and after a while someone spoke tentatively:

"But Windermere and Wellington are watching us and they won't let us get what we want easily from this game."

The Duke of Wellington's actions have clearly demonstrated one thing -

They were never good friends who held hands.

Although the two Grand Dukes and the conservatives besieged the Shihuaiya County, they would not allow any of their own factions to obtain the Crown Prince and the national sword of Aslan from Rhodes Island alone.

Although the momentum was huge, it was just as Luo Hang said at the beginning... it was just a mob.

Apart from the initial relatively consistent blockade of Shi Huaiya's territory, the three forces did not take any action that could be considered cooperative afterwards. The conservatives were in disarray, and Wellington even did not hesitate to betray them. The checks and balances between them were more effective than those against the enemy.

"They certainly won't let us succeed easily, so we also need to let them see our determination."

Duke Caister stood up straight, but his tone remained sharp.

If they continue to waste time like this, their losses will only increase. As the instigators at the beginning, they have now become the main target of public opinion.

Windermere and Wellington were naturally happy to see them suffer, and might even simply maintain the existing balance of power to consume them. But since he understood this, how could the Duke of Caster sit idly by and wait for death?

She was able to become the Grand Duke who ruled a region not by leaving everything to fate, but by her own means and the courage to make decisive decisions.

"Let the warships set off and prepare a deterrent deployment against Windermere and Wellington. Let's solve our current problems once and for all."

Duke Caister, his eyes flashing coldly, made a declaration that silenced the entire audience.

This is the real—

Go to war.

These were just two defeats. Seriously speaking, the only major defeat that really caused any loss to Duke Caster was in the plan to attack Rhodes Island. Duke Caster, who saw the current situation clearly, had taken a decisive action that no one had expected.

Since others would not let her succeed easily, she told them that she was determined to do so even if it came at a cost.

There is no doubt that even if one does not rely on one's own judgment, but has the answer clearly in front of them - the allies around them are there to check and balance us and consume our resources - not everyone has the courage to make this decision.

Was she forced to watch Rhodes Island develop steadily under her nose because of the distractions of others, and could only try to find ways to show warmth to the other party in a roundabout way?

Sorry, that's not the case.

The reason why the Grand Duke stood at the head of the conference table and the others were her subjects was clear.

The Duke of Caister, a woman, snorted coldly.

"I want to see if Windermere is willing to let her warships collide with us for the sake of her allies. And is that old fellow Wellington, who has been hiding for so long, really willing to disrupt his deployment in front of the Sarkaz and come to confront us head-on?"

If she has to pay the price, others will naturally not be able to escape unscathed.

She wanted to see how many of these people were willing to actually make sacrifices for Rhodes Island, even though they had the nerve to pretend to restrain her.

"I'll wait to understand."

The Grand Duke's order was carried out and the second issue was brought to the meeting table.
