Otherworld Girl Development Guide

Soon, the captain and political commissar entered the control room and asked, "How is the situation?"

"Reporting to the commander, bearing 180, distance 1000, still approaching..." (Mini-科普: Imagine the ship as a point, draw a circle, with true north as 0° and 360° as 360°. Bearing 180° is true south. 90° is true east, and 270° is true west.)

"Sound the alarm! Be on alert!"

The crew sounded the alarm on board the ship.

Jingle Bell!Jingle Bell!

Although the Dayu was an oceanographic survey vessel, all its crew members were naval personnel.

Alarm bells rang throughout the ship's cabins, and all crew members went into combat readiness. Sailors took out their QBZ-191 rifles and went to their combat posts.

The moment the alarm rang, Zhou Mingrui quickly dressed, pushed open the door, walked to Ellie's door, and gently knocked.

"Ellie, something's wrong!"

Then he walked to Corliss's door and knocked gently a few times.

“Miss Corliss, everything has changed.”

The two came out shortly after. Ellie rubbed her eyes, clearly still a little sleepy, and asked, "Zhou Mingrui, what happened?"

Corliss, standing to the side, also looked at Zhou Mingrui with some confusion.

"Three airships are approaching."

After speaking, Zhou Mingrui gestured for the two to follow. Shi Qiang, holding a new Type 191 rifle, followed behind them, cautiously looking around.

Both of them have special identities. Ellie is the granddaughter of Mayor Crobell. Although she doesn't know Corliss's true identity, judging from their conversation, her identity is also not simple. They must protect the safety of the two of them.

Soon, the two followed Zhou Mingrui into a heavily guarded cabin, where fully armed soldiers stood guard around the perimeter.

The cabin was filled with electronic equipment; this cabin was equivalent to the CIC. The phased array radar locked onto the approaching airship, and the radar officer reported the airship's position every 30 seconds.

As for bringing Ellie and Corliss into this highly confidential location, it was done with authorization from higher authorities.

First, the two sides have completely different technology paths. Even if they are seen, so what? There are many things that the other side doesn't even have a concept of.

Secondly, neither of them were ordinary civilians.

Corliss frowned slightly as she looked at the guns in the soldiers' hands.

"Miss Corliss, don't misunderstand, not having a sword in your hand and having a sword but not using it are not the same thing."

In our view, ships have always been an extension of territory, and we have the right to self-defense while on board... Rest assured, we will absolutely not bring weapons into the territory of the Kingdom of Bel without authorization.

“I understand, Mr. Zhou Mingrui.”

Collice nodded in understanding.

On the radar, the three airships were in an equilateral triangle formation, with two lagging behind and one surging forward... The surging airship was getting quite close to the Dayu.

“Miss Corliss, an airship is approaching us. We would like to confirm whether they belong to the Kingdom of Bell?” Zhou Mingrui asked softly.

Corliss was taken aback. How did they discover the airship?

Airships have always been known for their speed, stealth, and surprise attacks. The Bel Kingdom's airship technology is also the most advanced. The kingdom has a complete set of airship tactics and uses its powerful airship force to fight against the Empire. Once this inherent advantage is lost, and the enemy is prepared in advance... Thinking of this, Corliss shuddered.

"No, the kingdom's airship force has fixed patrol routes, and their behavior is somewhat like that of a sky pirate group..."

"Sky Pirates?"

Just by the name, you can tell it's not an official organization. It's practically robbery; it has absolutely no technical sophistication.

But for a gang to be able to acquire an airship and cause trouble near the kingdom's shipping lanes... that's just outrageous!

If this were a rabbit, and you dared to ignore warnings and fly away without authorization, it would immediately poke you down with a bamboo pole!

"Then, Miss Corliss, for safety reasons, if these sky pirate groups are targeting us, we will exercise our right to self-defense. Let me explain this to you in advance."

"can."

.............................

In the sky, a patched-up airship is slowly approaching the Dayu.

In the airship's control room, a man with a full beard stared at the brightly lit white cargo ship on the canal.

"Boss, this is a real fat sheep!"

"Be careful not to scare the prey!" the bearded man said in a deep voice.

"Don't worry, boss! You know my skills!" Then the helmsman thought for a moment and asked, "Boss, are we going to run into some tough guys doing this?"

"We're the Cat-Hunting Sky Pirates! Tell the brothers to get ready, and remember, don't kill anyone. We're after money!"

"Order!"

〇 Projects of the Bureau of Terrorism that can be announced before the program.

Chapter 32 Surrender and You Will Not Be Killed

The airship in the sky kept approaching the Dayu, and the two got closer and closer until the shadow of the airship could be caught by the naked eye in the night sky.

"Target 001 continues to approach... distance 300... 200... 100..."

On the deck, Zhou Mingrui held a telescope with a night market function and looked into the night sky. He could clearly see the dark green, dilapidated airship, more than thirty meters long, in the sky... It looked a lot like a Somali pirate.

"This air pirate is really shabby..."

Zhou Mingrui was quite surprised when he first saw an airship. Sure enough, every civilization has its own characteristics. For example, India is democratic, uses oil, and speaks English. (Daily life 1/1)

How does an airship fly? It has no wings, no propellers, and no loud noise like an aircraft engine; on the contrary, it is very quiet.

Ellie looked up at the sky, blinked her gray eyes, and her excellent eyesight allowed her to only make out a vague outline.

"Here, use this to see clearly..."

He handed the binoculars to Ellie and stood aside to teach her how to use military binoculars.

"...Press here to adjust the focus."

"Huh? You can really see it!" Ellie took the telescope and looked up at the sky, exclaiming in surprise. Against the green background, the airship in the sky was exceptionally clear, and you could even count the patches on it.

Zhou Mingrui also handed Corliss another pair of binoculars. He was now a receptionist and couldn't afford to show favoritism.

"Thank you!" Corliss said politely, and like Ellie, looked up at the sky, her eyes widening slightly. If such a thing were equipped on an airship!

On the deck of the Dayu, soldiers of the Jiaolong Special Forces were hidden behind cover and waiting for orders.

On the high ground of the Dayu, a 12.7mm heavy machine gun was set up, and snipers were in position... If the air pirates on the airship dared to board the Dayu, they would be subdued immediately.

"All personnel, contact principle: surrender your weapons and you will not be killed!" the captain of the Jiaolong Commando Team whispered in the communication channel.

"understand!"

The airship eventually hovered ten meters above the rear deck of the Dayu, and thanks to the excellent control of the airship pilot, it was able to maintain a relatively stationary speed with the Dayu.

This level of performance!

It seems I'll need to make contact with the royal family of the Kingdom of Bel later... Zhou Mingrui narrowed his eyes slightly.

Seeing the sky pirates preparing to board the ship, Zhou Mingrui led Ellie and Corliss back into the cabin.

After waiting for nearly a minute and confirming that the Dayu had not "discovered" them, two ropes were lowered from the airship.

"Alright, guys, charge!"

After saying that, the leader of the Cat Hunter Sky Pirates took the lead and slid down the rope onto the Dayu Ship. Then, more than ten sneaky sky pirates slid down the rope.

The first air pirate to step onto the deck waved strange hand gestures, and the weapon in his hand made Zhou Mingrui twitch his lips.

Holding a pistol in his left hand and a machete in his right... is he playing a Caribbean pirate?

Just as more than a dozen air pirates were about to sneak into the control room of the Dayu, the searchlights on their suits came on, illuminating the area on the aft deck where the more than a dozen air pirates were located as if it were daytime.

The Sky Pirates of the Cathunter Group, who hadn't even had a chance to act, were suddenly frozen in place... They had been exposed before they could even make a move, and for a moment, they couldn't advance or retreat.

"Don't move! Surrender and you'll be spared!"

"Hands up, surrender and you will not be killed!"

The sky pirates, seeing the soldiers rushing out from all corners with their orbal-like weapons, especially the several thicker tubes on the high ground, immediately wilted like frostbitten eggplants.

"Boss...we've been discovered, what do we do?"

More than a dozen air pirates looked at the captain.

The leader of the Sky Pirates gritted his teeth, his eyes wide, and said, "We'll fight them..."

"Fight to the death?" The henchman swallowed hard; he didn't want to die.

"surrender!"

What else could they do but surrender? They were just a bunch of sky pirates, not the reckless hunters who charged into a hail of bullets. They simply didn't have that kind of courage.

*Thud*... The leader of the Sky Pirates decisively threw his machete and orbal pistol to the ground.

Seeing that their leader had surrendered, the henchmen dropped their weapons. The Jiaolong Special Forces then used handcuffs and straps to subdue the air pirates one by one, and the airships in the sky followed the Dayu without any hesitation.

The leader of the Sky Pirates was taken to CIC. He wisely did not resist, clearly an old eunuch who had been to the palace many times and knew the way very well.

"Don't be nervous, we will hand you over to the kingdom..."

Although these air pirates boarded the ship, they were air pirates captured within the territory of the Kingdom of Bel, and handing them over to the kingdom is the correct course of action.

Upon hearing this, Corliss blinked her purple eyes, feeling a surge of goodwill towards the forces of the Abyss Sea, at least they respected the Kingdom.

"...Alright, let your other accomplices turn themselves in as well, and try to get lenient treatment."

"Other accomplices?" The leader of the Sky Pirates was taken aback, looking at the interrogators with a strange expression. "You wiped out our entire Cat Hunter Sky Pirates crew. Where did these accomplices come from?"
