Otherworld Girl Development Guide

There are only a handful of submarines, all of which are API submarines with excellent stealth capabilities; there are no nuclear submarines among them.

Amidst the festive atmosphere, a Type 039C API submarine slowly departed from the port, sailing across the emerald green sea and heading towards the depths of the abyss.

Chapter 155 The Beautiful Girl Qingluan (35/56)

The seven-day Spring Festival holiday passed quickly, and Shangqiu returned to its daily life.

After carrying the package and escorting the two little girls from his family into the research institute, Zhou Mingrui was stopped by a Dou Zong powerhouse standing nearby.

"Boss, Happy New Year!" The Dou Zong expert greeted Zhou Mingrui with a radiant smile.

"Happy New Year to you too! Oh, by the way, this is for you..." Zhou Mingrui handed the box of frozen dumplings to the Dou Zong expert: "...I made too many, you can't eat them all, take them back and try them."

For seven days during the Spring Festival... eating dumplings every day, Zhou Mingrui felt he had developed a psychological aversion to dumplings; even his burps tasted like dumplings...

"Thank you, boss!"

After taking the box, the Dou Zong expert looked around and, seeing that there were no outsiders, took out a red invitation from his pocket and handed it to Zhou Mingrui.

"Ok?"

Zhou Mingrui took the invitation and was delighted to see the "double happiness" character on it. He then opened it:

Groom: Dou Zong

Bride: Leilia Curry

The wedding was held on [Date] at the Shangqiu Grand Hotel at 8:28 AM.

......

Goodness, the bride is obviously a local. She asked him to help find a partner before, but she got married before she did!

Zhou Ming asked curiously, "This is a joyous occasion, why were you keeping it a secret?"

"Isn't there a rule? The wedding can't have more than eight tables. There's a limited number of people, and it'll be difficult if other colleagues see it..." The Dou Zong expert explained, "...Boss, I still need to send invitations to other people."

"Okay, go ahead~ Congratulations in advance! I'll prepare a big bag for you when the time comes!"

The Dou Zong expert smiled sheepishly, a happy expression on his face: "Thank you, boss. Oh, and... boss, don't forget to bring your wife and senior sisters next time!"

"..."

"This guy, he always brings up the most sensitive topics! What's so great about getting married..." Zhou Mingrui thought sourly to himself.

After seeing off the Dou Zong powerhouse, Zhou Mingrui headed towards the White Bird's hangar, where, it was said, the White Bird would be making its first test flight after the New Year.

The first thing Zhou Mingrui saw was not Bai Niao's hangar, but Chongming's nest. The hangar guards glanced at Zhou Mingrui and then paid no more attention to him.

Inside the hangar, two pilots and ground crew were carefully checking Chongming's condition.

After passing Chongming's hangar, I saw the star "Bluebird" huddled inside, covered with a three-colored plastic sheet. On Earth, Bluebird is affectionately called "Blue Phoenix," and there are all sorts of anthropomorphic blue-haired girl illustrations with it, generating an astonishing amount of buzz... Black ribbons are completely outdated!

With a squeak, the Bluebird optical sensor, revealing a three-colored waterproof plastic sheet, slightly zoomed in and locked onto Zhou Mingrui... Through facial recognition and big data analysis of Shangqiu, it identified him as the "boss" and immediately stored his data in the machine's internal database.

Zhou Mingrui suddenly felt someone staring at him, turned his head to look in the direction of Qingniao, and waved to the "beautiful girl".

The Bluebird's standby status system is also in standby mode. Its advanced superconducting battery allows it to remain in low-power standby mode for three weeks without starting the engine, and even in wartime, it has the authority to take off autonomously.

After passing through the Bluebird's hangar, you arrive at the "White Swan's" nest. Compared to Chongming and Bluebird, her room is like a large villa in the hangar.

After passing identity verification and entering the hangar, Zhou Mingrui saw the gracefully curved and very beautiful "White Swan". The integrated skin technology made the white bird look very futuristic, but it had not yet left the cabin and was flying in the sky.

Several ground crew members were busy around the White Bird, carefully checking its condition, running their hands over the integrated fuselage skin inch by inch to ensure there were no obvious scratches.

The White Bird of Project 650 is a low-orbit spacecraft that is meant to fly into space. Even the slightest scratch could cause a space accident due to stress concentration!

If an accident happens in space, there's no chance to parachute out!

After thoroughly checking the condition of the white bird, it will take its first flight.

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

Ta-da! The sun rises as usual, shining on the third planet in the solar system.

CNN, the American broadcaster, is currently promoting the country's new mobile aerial platform with great fanfare. Even without being told, it's obvious that this is the Pengkun-2, a direct competitor to China's.

Seeing that the United States had made its statement, other countries began to follow suit, expressing their intention to develop new types of "weather research vessels," but whether they will actually build them remains unclear...

Military enthusiasts exclaimed "Renaissance" as the airship was back... Meanwhile, within China's borders, the Pengkun-2, which was constantly floating in the sky, became an "internet celebrity." Almost every day, aircraft carrying materials could be seen flying to the main frame of the Pengkun-2 for assembly. Some experts even posted photos of their simulations of the completed Pengkun-2 on Bilibili, which immediately made netizens exclaim "Into Science!"

This is no "meteorological research vessel" at all; it's clearly an aerial airport, the kind with its own "chocolate bar"!

In addition, the "beautiful girl Qingluan" who appeared only once and then disappeared makes it very clear that the flying girl with that kind of performance is prepared for Pengkun II!

A mobile airfield that can fly is something military enthusiasts in China are eagerly anticipating, wishing that the Pengkun-2 could be completed as soon as possible.

However, many elites criticized China for wasting money, saying that such things have no combat capability and can be shot down with a single missile, blah blah blah, and even gave "popular science" explanations. However... the posts were reported and deleted in less than two hours... They poked at it a couple of times, and maybe it really was 500,000!

The very next day, a lucky member of the group won a participation prize of 1000 yuan and a certificate.

Compared to the eye-catching Pengkun-2, the Chinese Vanguard Cannon is much more low-key. On a plateau in China, the Chinese Nuclear Industry Group is building a nuclear power plant, along with the first "Vanguard Cannon".

The Project 645 Pioneer Cannon, or the Pioneer Cannon, has a caliber of 420mm. Accelerated by electromagnetic rails, it can intercept various incoming threats at a speed of 9km/s by firing special warheads.

As for the 420mm caliber... with this caliber, some shells containing the U element can also be fired!

Calculating the range like this, wow... most of India, a certain world power, is within range. Some people even doubt whether, after changing the shell to a special aerodynamic shape, it could reach the prosperous coastal areas of India.

India couldn't sit still! The very next day, the old man announced that he would visit the United States, and at the same time stated that India would soon launch its space station into space, to rival the sun!

Chapter 156 Standing Shoulder to Shoulder with the Sun

In the living room on the first floor of the villa, a newly filmed TV series from the other side of the world is playing.

Da da da!

The bullets fired from the 12.7mm heavy machine gun swept across the soldiers charging through the snow. Although the soldiers were using a three-three formation with each other spaced eight meters apart, some soldiers were still hit by bullets and were instantly shattered.

Even a scratch could sever an arm... Red blood blossomed on the snow, and soldiers fell on their way to the front.

Finally, they charged to within 10 meters of the enemy and began throwing grenades at them. Then the bugle call sounded...

"Old Zhou..."

The incredibly realistic and brutal battle on the screen made her instinctively shrink into Zhou Mingrui's arms. Tio, standing beside her, also tightened his grip on Zhou Mingrui's arm, his amber eyes flickering...

"Are you scared?" Zhou Mingrui asked softly.

"Ok!"

The two little girls nodded hastily; the battle on the screen was incredibly realistic. In just one battle, four or five warriors perished together with the enemy...

"It's right to be afraid. Actually, I'm afraid too... but they overcame their fear with willpower."

Zhou Mingrui said softly, "Who wouldn't be afraid going to the battlefield? Movies and TV series are all artistic interpretations. A 12.7mm heavy machine gun shot doesn't just hit one eye..."

Zhou Mingrui rubbed the heads of the two kittens, then turned to look at the warriors on the screen carrying demolition charges and charging towards the tanks: "So even if we're scared, we have to keep our eyes open and watch, and see the sacrifices our predecessors made."

"Ok!"

The two little girls nodded vigorously, nestled in Zhou Mingrui's arms, their amber eyes fixed on the screen, sensing the unbreakable fighting spirit within.

Meanwhile, across the ocean in the United States, the "beacon of light," a tender beef dish was served.

Intelligence personnel are monitoring the rabbit's every move via satellite, especially the "Vanguard Cannon" on a certain plateau and the Pengkun II floating in the sky.

Advanced equipment is springing out of the rabbit's den one after another, putting immense pressure on the US—pressure that it never felt even when facing a former adversary...

The office door opened, and a man with the rank of major walked into the office carrying a takeout meal.

"Good morning, Sir!"

The intelligence officer greeted his superior.

"Good morning..." The boss patted his subordinate on the shoulder and asked, "...Anything unusual today?"

"No, it's the same as always. The barrel of the first cannon was installed yesterday..."

Satellite footage shows countless pieces of construction machinery from the China Nuclear Industry Group building a nuclear power plant and the first "Pioneer Cannon." To minimize altitude sickness during construction, bipedal industrial mechs are being used as much as possible...

"Continue to observe."

The boss nodded, then planned to return to his office to enjoy his breakfast, and then write a strongly worded report to apply for more funding, since his daughter would soon be attending a prestigious private school.

"Sir...should we be concerned about India's space station?" another new intern called out to the major.

"..."

The boss stared blankly at the new intern.

"Don't worry, they are a country with a democratic system for seed oil production, so we don't need to pay attention to them."

"Understood, Sir!"

Just as my boss said, there are indeed people paying attention to India's launch of its space station, but the focus of their attention is different.

India's neighboring countries are keeping a close eye on the rockets launched from the Sriharikota launch site.

They were afraid that after the rocket went into the air, it would undergo unstoppable Brownian motion and crash into a densely populated area.

Ordinary missiles can be intercepted because their trajectory is predictable, but with Brownian motion... they're simply unstoppable!

Amidst the distinctive curry-scented countdown of India (you should listen to it, it's incredibly catchy)... the rocket engine ignites, and it lifts off the ground, soaring towards its predetermined orbit.

Almost simultaneously, China's air defense system began tracking the rocket's trajectory; China was genuinely afraid it would crash...

As the rocket continued to ascend, it seemed that India's rocket launch was successful, and China finally relaxed...

Amidst the cheers that smelled of curry, the members of the Space Committee began to cheer. The successful launch of this space station would be a giant leap forward for all of humanity's space program!

After the first-stage rocket engine detached, the second-stage rocket engine successfully ignited, continuing to propel the Indian-made "core module" toward its predetermined orbit.

That's right, India's core module is directly comparable to China's "Tianhe" module. In India's words, although this core module wasn't built in India, the fact that India could buy it is impressive. China, if you don't believe me, try buying one yourself...

As the second-stage rocket engine detached and the third-stage rocket engine ignited, before the space station even reached its designated orbit, the Indian space agency announced online that it would launch 104 satellites at once using a launch vehicle next year, which, if successful, would be a "record-breaking and amazing feat."

However, as the saying goes, excessive joy leads to sorrow. When the Indian Space Commission issued the core module dodging order, the system completely failed to respond, or rather, although it received the command, the corresponding parts did not function...

For a moment, the cheerful curry-scented music inside the Indian Space Council stopped, and all the technicians stared in disbelief at the red light flashing on the control panel.

"impossible!"

"This is impossible!"
