Walk through the structure of the Ark and wander on the continent of Terra

After returning to her room, she fell into chaos again. She followed Senior Chuchen to buy a swimsuit on a whim. Now that she has bought a swimsuit, this outfit is probably the most beautiful outfit she brought this time. She will go to the appointment tomorrow morning. Do you want to wear this suit?

"Wait a minute, haven't I decided whether or not I want to go to the appointment?" After a while, Xinteleia thought it would be better to go. After all, she proposed it herself, and she broke the appointment, and it was because she was happy with her boss's appointment. It was inappropriate. As for other concerns and worries, the flustered and clueless Silver Pegasus lady had no time to think about them.

"Why don't you ask Senior Chu Hen if you want to go together tomorrow morning?" But the reply she got was that Senior Chu Hen said that he would get up late every day off and would usually miss the sunrise.

……

"Bo...Doctor, good morning." On the beach in the dim light of morning, a slightly cool sea breeze was blowing. Under the morning light that lit up the sky before the red tide reflected, the girl wearing a gauze shyly said, His cheeks were slightly red, his eyebrows were downcast, and he was avoiding his gaze at a loss.

The cold seawater in the morning wetted her clothes. The gauze was soaked by the seawater and stuck to her snow-white jade skin. Under the background of the rising sun, it revealed a slightly rosy luster and outlined an imaginative scene. Beautiful light and shadow.

The shy girl stepped in the surging tide, and the water splashed up fell on her body, sliding and dripping from her skin like morning dew or crystal pearls.The first ray of morning light cast by the sun fell on the girl and the water drops on her body, creating a dreamlike halo for her, reflecting the gorgeous light and shadow, showing the girl's infinite youth and beauty.

"Hey, doctor, doctor...what's wrong with you?"

"No, it's okay..." The doctor turned his head in embarrassment and held his nose tightly with one hand. He had a nosebleed. Xintlaya's figure is better than Kelsey... "This, this, sea salt coffee, you Try it..."

1.Hemmer’s plan

"Thank you, Alpha. These things you agreed to lend me are things I couldn't imagine before. Even when I was still in Rhine Life, I had never been exposed to so much knowledge and technical resources." On the Star of Life In the cafeteria of No. [-], Helmer met Alpha after being away for several months.

千',寻!免",费"小:.:说"?.,'裙!"2.;'5!"?"!5;,:5!9?;",!5,,3",0;.0　　看上去，这一次的哥伦比亚之行，为她带来了不少的改变，其他的方面不说，至少她的眼神比起以前坚定了许多。

"There's no need to be polite to me." Alpha looked at her happily. According to Celia, after returning to Rhode Island from Mansfield, Hemer was depressed for a while, and seemed to be thinking and making some decisions. But now, she has found a new topic and plans to invest in research to regain her status, so she comes to ask for Alpha's support. She looks like she has rekindled her fighting spirit, and Alpha is relieved a lot.

Looking back, the relationship between Helmer and Ceria in this world line is not as rigid as Alpha remembered. It seems that because of some trivial opportunities, the two have more exchanges. , a little more candid.

Perhaps it is because of this frankness that the relationship between the two of them, including their attitude towards Ifrit, has always been relatively harmonious without Alpha's much involvement. The occasional quarrels are actually nothing. Contradictory.

Alpha knew that Ceria and Helmer actually stood on a similar stance when it came to their attitude towards scientific research. They both believed that scientific research should be used to benefit mankind and should not be based on disorderly and barbaric growth and no moral bottom line. of experimental research.The two of them could reach the most basic mutual understanding without himself intervening. This has always been something Alpha has been very happy about.

"I read your project plan. You want to re-understand the various mechanisms of the Originium chip in Joyce's head, and then find a way to restore her to a healthy life. This project is quite challenging. ." Alpha poured her a cup of coffee, and when he applied for his own laboratory resources, Alpha had already memorized all the reports she submitted.

Helmer nodded, "According to my investigation, the things implanted in Ifrit's body are related to an ancient tribe of Sakaz. I asked Mr. Logos about this. The ancient tribe of Sakaz is often accompanied by There are some secrets that are unclear to this day. The complexity is so complex that I can’t even estimate the risks now. The implants in Joyce’s body are just the product of Colombia’s modern technology. In comparison, the complexity and potential risks are They are all smaller, and I want this research to be an entry point for me to continue to understand more about Originium and Ore Disease, and a better thinking angle."

Alpha nodded. No matter what path Hemer chose, as a friend, she would absolutely support him. Hemer is a talented scholar and she deserves more resources to use her talents. "This It’s a very good topic. Levi happens to be studying related content recently. I will ask him to exchange information with you regularly. He has a very unique view on this research. Compared with my eyes, your professional research The way people search for answers is even more important. Just go ahead and do it, and just tell me if you encounter any difficulties."

When she heard Levi, Hermer frowned. She had asked Seria about the man she had met once in the laboratory of the Star of Life. After understanding his experience and attitude, , Helmer was both curious and distrustful of him. After all, Levi was indeed a scientific lunatic who believed that scientific truth was above all morals. He was the type of person that Helmer was most afraid of.

But Hemmer knew that he should not make a one-sided evaluation of Levi, a top scientist who was extremely talented and never relaxed his efforts. Levi, who accepted Alpha's invitation, never did anything that put research above human rights and morality again. On the contrary, the achievements he can list now are or will soon benefit tens of thousands of people.

"Okay, I look forward to cooperating with Mr. Levi."

"I will open a special window channel to you. You can borrow Diesel's computing power, or apply for direct support from my simulation calculations to conduct maximum realistic simulations and create new ones without causing collateral damage. model, as for other needs and questions, you can ask Kelsey directly, or wait until the doctor comes back to ask him."

Learning to think and analyze problems on one's own is crucial for a civilization. In this matter, Alpha is not stingy in providing the help he can.

"By the way, Alpha, I..." As if remembering something, Homer took off her glasses and put them on the table together with the folder in her hand. She was hesitant about how to speak and thought for a moment. She took a sip of the coffee in her cup and then looked sincerely into Alpha's eyes again. "I have a request. It's not about experiments and research. It's something more personal."

"You tell me, as long as I can do my best, I can try to satisfy you."

"Alfa, you are very good at fighting. I would like to ask you to teach me some fighting skills..." Hermer spoke very quickly when she said this. She seemed not to have much confidence in this question.

"My fighting skills cannot be learned by ordinary people..." Alpha, who was still wondering what Hemo would ask for now, lost his curiosity after hearing this, "But I can teach you general things. Basic weapon use, combat tactics skills and ideas, when you are free, you can come over and use my consciousness simulation with Koloff and Ashes. I can also give you a few words over at Rhodes Island, there will be There are many people willing to help you.”

Helmer nodded gratefully.Looking at her appearance, Alpha patted her shoulder comfortingly, "I have roughly browsed the relevant reports on what you encountered in Mansfield this time. I know that you want to protect more people." People, if you want stronger power, your ideas deserve recognition. In this land, force is an important prerequisite to ensure order in the midst of disorder and to make others listen to your reasons."

Alpha changed the topic, "I know that Ceria will definitely not agree with this matter, so you came to me directly." Ceria has always adhered to her creed, and she has long instinctively Protecting them has become the responsibility that she must fulfill after leaving Rhine Life, and Helmer plans to receive training and learn relevant knowledge. These things will one day allow her to take the initiative to face more dangers, Ceria Will be worried.

"But you are companions. Please find an opportunity to talk to her about these matters. If something doesn't make sense, I will help you persuade her. After all, you can't stay under the protection of her dragon wings all your life."

"...Well, thank you, Alpha."

"Okay, I just have free time today. The area of ​​Rhode Island's training ground has been inspected and put into use. It is open to the public. I will take you there to play."

2. What can you tell from a gun?

The shooting range in Rhode Island was relatively deserted today, and Alpha easily led Hemmer to find an empty target lane.She also found a weapons case engraved with the Rhode Island logo.

Opening the weapon box, a rail rifle and supporting equipment tinkered by the engineering department, as well as a pistol designed by Alpha commissioned by the defense department, lay quietly inside. These were all products produced during this period, brand new The weapon reflects the cold luster of metal under the lights of the shooting range. It is a unique luster that penetrates the heart but is reassuring.

Compared with Alpha Haoheng's integrated electric and bullet design to solve the energy replenishment problem faced by electromagnetic weapons when used in areas far away from supplies, the mechanic proposed a simple and crude solution, which is to use an adapter and an external weapon. Backpack battery installed.With the help of many Originium craftsmen, the engineering department completed the relevant design. Under the guidance of integration, the two parts were successfully integrated into a portable device the size of a one-liter kettle.

This energy storage tank can be easily carried with Rhode Island-style field equipment. It can be charged with various crude Originium techniques, and then the stored energy can be released stably and with high power through capacitor discharge. Every time When fully charged, the stored energy can fire sixty rounds of standard ammunition.This is completely sufficient for manual firearms that use a lever structure to load.In an emergency, the energy storage part can also be replaced to restore firepower continuity.

Even if a large amount of lightweight carbon materials are used for the energy storage tank, wires and the firearm itself, the weight of the entire system still exceeds six kilograms, but this weight is really not a big problem for the people of Terra.

When using boat tail bullets, the maximum range is more than two kilometers, the effective range is more than one kilometer, and the penetration and lethality are also considerable. What surprised Alpha most was that it was the first time for Ke Lucier and others to design firearms. This gun achieves good accuracy and is easy to use and maintain on the battlefield. Are they really geniuses?

But think about the period of firearms design. Scout went to the engineering department every day, and having a highly skilled user on the side to provide suggestions was really important for the design of a weapon.

As for the combat pistol, it is the one with the powerful electric bullet. The disposable capacitor packaged with the bullet body currently makes the cost of each bullet exceed thirty gantry coins, although it is still far lower than that of high-quality etching. The price of bullets, but this cost still makes Alpha himself quite disappointed.But it is indeed easy to use, and the production facilities in Rhode Island can handle 90.00% of the parts and all ammunition. The doctor has already planned to equip all operators who need to carry weapons with this combat pistol. If there is no problem with funding... …

……

Going a step further, firearms are not the protagonist today. Alpha briefly introduced the origins and related information of these two weapons to Hermer, and then prepared to teach her how to use these two weapons.

Hemo is not good at fighting, and her Origin Stone skills are not the type to be good at fighting. If she wants to learn how to fight, firearms may be the best choice for her.

At Alpha's signal, Hemer picked up the pistol. Alpha had briefly explained to her the various basic movements that needed to be taken care of before. She would never make such basic mistakes as golden fingers and pointing the gun at people. , having stayed in the laboratory for a long time, Hemer knew very well that behind these safety regulations were lessons learned, and this code must be respected.

Following Alpha's example, Hemmer pressed a bullet into the magazine of the pistol, then loaded the magazine into the firearm, pulled the slide to push the bullet into the chamber, and then tried to aim the sight and rear sight at the distant target. .

Pulling the trigger, the gunshot of the electromagnetic weapon was not loud, and the recoil was within her tolerance. Hermer just felt a push on her wrist, and the back seat of the pistol told her that the bullet had been successfully fired. When she went out, luckily, the first shot in her life hit the target.

He also learned Alpha's process of unloading and inspecting the firearm. When he finally put the gun back on the table, Hemmer did not rush to ask about his shooting results or anything else, but looked at it silently. This weapon lay quietly in front of him.

Helmer knew that the design maturity of this gun had exceeded his imagination. Although it was indeed a redesigned weapon by Alpha, the countless experiences accumulated by humans from Alpha's past world had made it a battle-hardened weapon. In near perfect condition.It is a precision machine designed for killing, precise and deadly...

The most important thing is that even if you are an ordinary person who has never had combat experience, does not know combat spells at all, and has not received long-term and complicated spell training, you can just follow the user manual and fumble a few times, and you will be able to get it right. use this weapon.And it can actually cause damage.

On the target lane next door, the little girl named Greythroat was test-firing the rifle developed by Rhode Island. On her target lane, a simulated Rhode Island-style shield had been riddled with holes.

Helmer stretched out his hand and gently touched this young weapon. In front of it, the best protective gear on the land seemed so thin. Even the power armor of Rhine Life had to be weighed in front of it. My own weight.Helmer suddenly remembered the turret on the Life Star, the electromagnetic gun turret controlled by the fire control and sighting system. That little thing that seemed insignificant could easily blow up the walking mechanism of a moving city. , penetrate the armor of various vehicles and vehicles, and even battleships.

In contrast, those researchers back then consumed so many test products and conducted horrific human experiments, and what did they get?She got an infected child who was plagued by illness - Ifrit. Faced with the mass production of thousands of guns and cannons, what did her flames mean?Even if the experiment did not fail, and even if the research plan at that time went smoothly, the final product would still require talented and powerful users of Origin Stone skills to use, and the proportion of excellent warlocks in the population...

At this moment, Hemer once again realized deeply that if the direction of efforts is wrong, the things produced will only make more mistakes.Unfettered scientific research sometimes cannot create truly meaningful results, but can only create more suffering.Compared with the Balrog Project, the R series power armor is more reliable...

Helmer picked up the unnamed magnetic rail rifle. She wanted to feel this purer power, the "industrial" power that Alpha called it.

3. The early bird is called Hemo

"Hermer! What are you going to do!" In the early morning, Ifrit, who was sleeping in a daze, woke up when she heard the sound of gentle washing coming from the room. She saw that it was not the usual time at this time. Hemo, who knew how to get up, had already changed into sportswear and was ready to go out.

Because of her racial characteristics, Hermer's work and rest schedules tend to be later than others. She often enjoys her late nights healthily and pushes back the clock of work and life. But today, she got up It's extremely early.

Hearing Ifrit's voice, Hermer sighed with a smile, and walked over quietly. She touched Ifrit's forehead, and then straightened the quilt that had been pulled aside when she slept at night. The October summer heat in Casimir has not yet subsided. The indoor air conditioner is set at 26 degrees, so it is better for the children to cover themselves with quilts.

"I'm going to exercise. It's still early. You need to sleep a little longer."

"Hermer, don't you usually work out in the middle of the night? Well, what happened today?"

"It's okay Ifrit, I've made an appointment with some friends to go for morning exercise together. I have some things to ask them for advice."

Ifrit rubbed her sleepy eyes and looked at Hemo. After discovering that Hemo's face was not tired from getting up too early, she mumbled with relief, "Then go ahead." Then she turned her head again. His head was buried in the owl pillow.

"Be good, sleep a little longer, ah." Then there was a burst of soft footsteps, gradually getting further away.

……

The training ground in Rhode Island has always been a busy place. Every day, personnel from various departments conduct various trainings here, as well as intensive training for field operators' action teams.

It was still very early, and it wasn't even time for breakfast to be served in the cafeteria of Rhodes Island, but here, Hemer had already seen the little guys from the Star of Life following Koloff for a morning run. Figures, their steps were neat, following an invigorating beat, and with loud and sweet voices, they sang together a song that Hemer had never heard before. The lyrics were very simple, sonorous and powerful, and no complicated words were needed. The rhythmic singing voice conveys the surging emotions.

"Unity is strength, unity is strength..."

As the running team went away, the singing gradually became distant, but the singing of the little guys made Hemo, who was still a little nervous at first, feel much lighter.

"Yes, I came on time." At the agreed place, Hemer met Hui Jin. This was the first time she saw this tactician from another world. Hui Jin had brown-red hair and smart attire. It left a deep impression on her.

Ashes patted Hemo on the shoulder, "Alfa has already told me about your matter. It just so happens that our Rainbow Team will be stationed here in Rhode Island in the near future. We can spare two hours every morning before and after breakfast." , try our best to teach you the various combat skills we have mastered. This should not affect your daily work, but I would also like to remind you that combat consumes a lot of physical strength. In daily activities, you need to be conscious To ensure your physical condition and exercise your physical fitness.”

Hemo nodded. She had always been a self-disciplined person and would never regard this level of exertion as a difficulty or challenge.

"The training of combat literacy cannot be achieved overnight. It is a long process that requires continuous training and accumulation, so there is no need for you to be impatient. If you have any confusion, please tell us at any time."

"Good sir."

"You are a scientific researcher. I believe in your self-discipline and sense of rules. I will not bring those dregs of rules from home here. Moreover, you are a student, not our subordinate. During training and peacetime, there is no need to wear any honorifics. .”

After explaining some basic matters, Ashes picked up a few rather thick documents from the folding table nearby and handed them to Helmer. This was a set compiled by the Rainbow Team for Rhode Island operators who received general combat and defense training. Professional teaching materials combine the various trainings they have received and their long combat experience.Starting from this day, they will use this morning exercise time to teach her this knowledge one module at a time.

Helmer was a little surprised. She had read the Rainbow Team's public information and some of the classified information that had been opened to her with permission. She knew that they were senior special service personnel. She really didn't expect that she would be able to receive direct guidance from them.

Today's mission was relatively basic. Brother Machine Gun found a venue to instruct her in the most basic military physical training. On the other side, Instructor Dubin, who had arranged the training missions of several other action preparation groups, found Ashes.

"Former Bolivarian National Guard, Dubin."

"Rainbow Team, Ashes."

After a brief greeting, Dubin took out a document and handed it to Ashes, "This document was drawn up by the doctor. Kelsey requires it to follow the formal process. Please take a look."

Ashes nodded and took the document. She had known for a long time that it was a new letter of authorization. Rhode Island was planning to invite them to serve as instructors to provide technical and tactical guidance and advice to several action teams that were about to replace their equipment with new equipment.

Speaking of which, companies with a certain size on the continent of Terra basically have their own armed forces. This is related to the rather primitive international political system of the continent of Terra. Even within each country, each mobile city has a very high degree of autonomy. Because of this looseness that exists from the ground up, the international affairs of the Terra continent are actually quite primitive and full of gaps. International companies that need to travel among major countries may themselves be independent. Outside of various political systems, it is actually normal to have armed forces and even paramilitary forces.

Rhode Island is a typical representative of them. Although Rhode Island is not as big as Black Steel International, due to Rhode Island's huge network of relationships, her influence on this land is actually not even greater than that of some The country is poor.

Ashes and the others know that this is a complicated situation with local characteristics, but because of this, these situations will not affect their provision of part of the military advisory services to Rhode Island. After all, there is no international law in Terra, right?

Hui Jin briefly browsed through the document. She actually knew the content and various terms of the document beforehand. After confirming again that each item was accurate, she took out a pen and signed her name on the document, and the new cooperation project was launched. start.

Putting down the pen, Hui Jin chatted with Du Bin. They had also experienced military careers and faced cruel battles, and now they were on the same side. The two chatted quite speculatively.

"By the way, the drill mentioned before." Dubin took out a plan. Taking into account the equipment replacement, the action team needed to make many changes, so a specially formulated confrontation exercise plan was made.

The two discussed this issue for a while, and finally decided that in three days, the A4 action reserve team, which had been receiving traditional training methods, would conduct a confrontation exercise with the A1 action reserve team, which had been receiving training from Alpha.

4. Gladia’s little offense

It was another ordinary day. Alpha opened her eyes on time. Xu Yu was still sleeping soundly in her arms. Her gentle breath blew on Alpha's chest, making her feel warm through her pajamas.

There is not much renovation work in Rhode Island today. The parts outsourced to Casimir Engineering Company and the parts handled by the now large-scale drone fleet are on the right track. There is nothing that needs to be handled personally for the time being. part.

Seemingly sensing Alpha waking up, the sensitive little jellyfish opened its eyes, "Alpha, you woke up so early again..."

"Actually, I don't need to sleep."

"I don't care..." Xu Yu whined twice, propped himself up, and came in front of Alpha, "You have to sleep well. Even if you are not tired, rest is very useful for your mental health."
