Otherworld Girl Development Guide

There must have been some shady dealings within the aristocratic faction. They detonated the thunder at the outset... and then "kindly" offered compensation to show their responsibility. Would the Kingdom of Bel really go to war with the Empire of Rebonia over this? As for the impact within Rebonia, who cares about the Kingdom of Bel's affairs?

After resolving the external troubles, the aristocracy only needed to focus their efforts on dealing with the reformists' offensive.

This smells familiar... The US is doing this too.

The whole world knows that this was done by the US, so what?

The US is giving you an explanation: they think highly of you. You have to accept it whether you like it or not! That's imperial hegemony!

Although the Duke of Helmut blocked the outside affairs and handled them with great "human touch," the Iron Chancellor Osborne would not let this opportunity pass.

The next day, in Heimdall, the "Crimson Capital," at the Imperial Palace.

Osborne used the "Meyer Village Massacre" as a pretext to propose weakening the private armies of the nobility, which immediately provoked a fierce backlash from the noble faction.

"Your Majesty, the Duke Helmut's 'runaway troops' incident is a serious diplomatic incident. It all stems from the Duke's excessive number of private soldiers. In order to maintain the stability of the Empire, reducing the Duke's private army is necessary..."

The private armies of the aristocracy are always the most troublesome. These private armies, which only obey the orders of the nobles, are a force that cannot be ignored within the empire. Especially after the trade with Shangqiu, the nobles monopolized the market, and huge profits were invested in the private armies. Some of these private armies are even better equipped than the imperial army.

“Prime Minister Osborne, the number of private soldiers we have is entirely within the bounds of Imperial law. Your proposal is a bit excessive. Moreover, the Mel Village massacre was a private matter and has nothing to do with me…” Duke Helmut explained from the side, “…Out of a sense of righteousness, I have already provided compensation.”

“But this was Duke Helmut’s fault!” Osborne seized on Duke Helmut’s mistake without hesitation.

The two began to clash, but it was clear that Duke Helmut was at a disadvantage.

"Enough, this matter ends here... Duke Helmut, you are in the wrong. Reduce your private army by 20%!" The Emperor interrupted the argument and set the record straight.

The Republic of Kalva, suburbs of Altaian.

The Order's Demon Cave.

"My lord, our informant planted near Duke Helmut has lost contact..."

The old man in the gray robe put down his newspaper: "Hmm...were they killed?"

The old man in the gray robe was not surprised that his inside man was eliminated. After all, Duke Helmut was a ruthless man, and the inside man he had placed by his side had been involved in too many shady things. It was only a matter of time before he was eliminated.

It's a pity... his inside game ended a bit too early.

“It’s alright. Duke Helmut is probably focused on dealing with the Iron Chancellor right now. After all, that guy would never miss this opportunity to suppress the aristocratic faction.”

The gray-robed old man curled his lip. Helmut was an Imperial Duke, and ordinary matters really couldn't bring him down.

“Let’s add fuel to the fire. We know very well what Duke Helmut did…” the gray-robed old man thought for a moment and said, “…Let’s give this evidence to our good friend, the man from Shangqiu.”

Let it be chaotic! The more chaotic it is, the more beneficial it will be for the cult!

--------------------------------------

Inside the villa, Zhou Mingrui, dressed in casual clothes, was looking in the mirror and tidying his appearance.

This immediately made the two kittens realize that something was wrong; Old Zhou would never normally dress himself up like this.

"Old Zhou~ Where are you going?"

"Oh? I'll take you to the research institute first, then I need to take care of some things... Do you need anything?"

Ellie came to Shangqiu, so Zhou Mingrui naturally had to take his girlfriend shopping, like buying her a Huawei 50 phone so that it would be easier for them to keep in touch.

Oh, right, Mayor Doyle, Ellie's maternal grandfather, is also in Shangqiu. This is a good opportunity to meet his parents. We've been dating for a year, it's time to settle things.

(=￣ω￣=)！ ！ ！ ?(=￣ω￣=)！ ！ ！

"Tio, something's wrong!"

"Bell, something's wrong!"

Bell's amber eyes darted around for a moment before she stepped forward and grabbed Zhou Mingrui's arm.

"Old Zhou, the White Bird is going to do a gliding jump test on the track today, aren't you going to go and take a look?"

"So fast?" Zhou Mingrui said in surprise.

"We're just testing the car on the ground, would you like to come with us to take a look?"

Bell and Theo stared at Zhou Mingrui, their amber eyes filled with anticipation.

"Uh..." The two kittens' starry-eyed onslaught immediately overwhelmed Zhou Mingrui: "...Okay."

Zhou Mingrui nodded in agreement... "Let's take Ellie with us too."

Chapter 119 Big Sister and Elementary School Student~

The Dongfeng Mengshi stopped in front of the Xinghuan Research Institute, and Zhou Mingrui got out of the car to open the door for the two kittens.

After getting out of the car, Lingdang and Tio did not head towards the research institute as usual, but instead stared at Zhou Mingrui.

"Huh? Is something the matter?"

Lingdang suddenly said, "It's okay...we'll have dinner together at home tonight, right?"

"Yes, I guess so?" Tio said in a monotone tone.

Zhou Mingrui rubbed the heads of the two kittens: "Of course, if I didn't go home, would I be living outside?"

Whew... The two little girls let out a long breath, then walked into the research institute, stopping every three steps.

"Alright, the kid's been dropped off... Brother Qiang, let's head to MixC Mall in the city center."

Shi Qiang drove towards the city center. Zhou Mingrui looked out the window at the streets that changed every three days and couldn't help but marvel at the speed of a rabbit.

Wow, the car sped onto the city's expressway, and the holographic projection signboard made it feel like we had entered a futuristic city.

The driverless electric bus travels along the predetermined route at a speed of 60 km/h on the overpass, with the AI-controlled bus constantly monitoring the information fed back by the sensors.

Forty minutes later, the Dongfeng Mengshi drove into the underground parking lot of MixC Mall.

After parking the car, Zhou Mingrui coughed lightly and walked towards the elevator, with Shi Qiang following behind him.

After taking the elevator to the first floor, Zhou Mingrui glanced at the message on his phone and headed towards the meeting place he had arranged with Ellie.

Soon, his gaze settled on Ellie, who was sitting in a seat drinking milk tea with long silver-gray hair. She was dressed casually today, and her beautiful face and enviable figure attracted the attention of many rabbits.

Zhou Mingrui frowned slightly, quickly walked to Ellie's side, and said with a smile, "Madam, may I invite you to go shopping together?"

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Ellie paused for a moment, then her face immediately lit up with surprise.

"Of course!"

As if asserting his dominance, Zhou Mingrui grabbed Ellie's hand and led her toward the Huawei store across the street.

"Let's buy a cell phone first, so we can stay in touch... then we'll go see 'The Wandering Earth'..."

"The Wandering Earth?" Ellie's face lit up with surprise. It was said that all the mainland residents who had seen The Wandering Earth were awestruck by its grand scale.

Upon entering the Huawei store, a salesperson gave a curtsy and asked with a smile and a soft voice, "Sir/Madam, what would you like to buy?"

Ellie blushed instantly. The thought of being addressed as "Madam"... Zhou Mingrui immediately felt incredibly pleased and decided to buy a cell phone right then and there.

"I want to buy the latest top-of-the-line Huawei flagship phone."

"Yes, sir/madam, please follow me..."

With the waiter's enthusiastic introduction, Zhou Mingrui paid for a Huawei phone with chips made from fractal silicon.

After making the payment quickly and efficiently, I also registered a SIM card for Ellie.

After inserting the SIM card and confirming that the phone was working properly, Zhou Mingrui pulled Ellie towards the rooftop cinema of MixC Mall.

"Alright, let's go see a movie now..."

Shangqiu Shipyard Wharf.

A special vessel is about to be launched – a space tracking ship.

The space tracking ship, hull number Wangyu 01, and named "Wangyu-1", is considered a sister ship of the "Yuanwang" fleet on Earth, except that the equipment used on it is more advanced than that of the Yuanwang-7 space tracking ship.

Wangyu-1 is China's first space tracking ship on Mingrui Star. Its main mission is to track and remotely measure various medium- and long-range missiles, satellites, and spacecraft, accurately determine their impact points, and recover warhead cones, satellite instrument and data cabins, and spacecraft cabins.

The main task at present is to work with the sounding rocket to further measure various data on Mingrui Star in preparation for satellite launch.

With the barge towing it, Wangyu-1 slowly sailed away from the dock and into the ocean of Mingrui Star.

The Wangyu-1 is 225 meters long, 28 meters wide, and 45 meters high, with a full-load displacement of 27000 tons. It has a maximum speed of no less than 18 knots, a range of no less than 18000 nautical miles, an endurance of 120 days, and can withstand a category 12 typhoon. The hull design has improved the forecastle deck, making the flare more pronounced and enhancing its ability to withstand wind and waves in high sea states, providing a more stable platform for aerospace measurement operations in the ocean.

The Wangyu series is expected to build ten to twelve ships. The cost of a single space tracking ship is higher than that of a warship, especially due to the expensive technical equipment on board, such as telemetry and remote control equipment, microwave unified equipment, ship attitude and position measurement equipment, computer systems, communication systems, and meteorological systems.

After the white Wangyu-1 sailed out of the dock, it was escorted by a Type 056L corvette. In comparison, the 89-meter-long Type 056L appeared incredibly small, like a primary school student next to its battleship counterpart...

After a period of sea trials, Wangyu-1 will head towards the Abyssal Sea to conduct remote sensing mapping for the next large sounding rocket.

On another slipway nearby, Shangqiu's first Type 054L frigate was launched at the same time. Its hull number is 575, with a displacement of 4300 tons and a length of 134 meters... It is also a small ship next to Wangyu-1.

Like the Type 056L, the Type 054L also features enhanced anti-submarine warfare capabilities and improved sensitivity of towed sonar equipment.

船体中段2X4联装反舰导弹装置更换为大型刺猬弹发射器，连同舰艏位置的FQF-3200型反潜火箭深弹发射装置、4X8联装32单元垂直发射系统一起构建一道防线。

In the helicopter hangar of the 575, there are domestically produced anti-submarine helicopters. In short, the Type 054L is a large fishing boat, filling the gap left by the Type 056L's short-legged coastal vessels that cannot enter the open ocean.

After being towed out of the dock, the 575 ship followed closely beside the Wangyu-1 like a loyal bodyguard, protecting the safety of its "big sister".

Originally, China did not plan to build the Type 054L corvette so early. However, the oceans of Mingrui Star are not safe, especially the deep sea areas. As a space tracking ship, Wangyu-1 will inevitably sail into the open ocean to conduct satellite mapping. It must be equipped with corresponding escort forces to ensure the safety of its navigation.

On the slipway not far away, a Type 055L ship is also under construction. After all, tonnage represents combat power. The tonnage of the Type 054L ship is still too small, and its self-sufficiency in the open ocean is limited. It needs a larger and stronger escort force to protect the shipping route between Shenyuanhai and Shangqiu, as well as the safety of other oceanographic survey ships.

After all, the seabed of Mingrui Star is a treasure trove, rich in oil, manganese nodules, and copper ore—all unclaimed. The rabbit (China) has no choice but to reluctantly develop it.

Chapter 120 Repair Field 2.0

As the ending theme song of "Take the Earth on a Wandering Journey" played, the film came to a close... After the end credits song, a line of text appeared on the screen, written in both languages:

Thank you for watching. This story is purely fictional. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental.

Ellie stared in awe at the scene on the screen as Earth passed through Jupiter, her mouth agape. It was undeniably a truly breathtaking sight.

Zhou Mingrui looked at Ellie, who was listening intently to the end credits song, and subtly reached out to put his arm around her. Ellie, her face slightly flushed, rested her head on Zhou Mingrui's shoulder.

In that instant, Zhou Mingrui was already thinking... what to name the child!

In fact, he wasn't the only one thinking about what to name the child; high-ranking officials in Shangqiu were also looking forward to the child's birth.

I don't ask for much, just to open a portal!
