Otherworld Girl Development Guide

Just as Corliss was feeling a bit confused, she turned to look at Zhou Mingrui beside her. Suddenly, a piece of information popped up on Zhou Mingrui's profile, including his age, blood type, and job title.

"What an amazing thing!" Princess Corliss exclaimed sincerely.

Behind her, Yuri, the military officer, put on AR glasses and her expression gradually became serious. She began to understand why Queen Estée was worried.

"If Your Highness Christine likes it, we can give you a portable AR glasses as a gift later."

"Thank you," Corliss said politely.

"You're welcome..." Zhou Mingrui added in his mind: The AR glasses that were given away only have basic functions, and they break as soon as you open them.

This is still a standalone AR device; it's easy to imagine that this AR technology will soon be integrated into individual soldier wearable devices, or rather, it already is...

After all, rabbits tend to keep the best things hidden in their burrows. It's thanks to room-temperature superconducting materials that AR augmentation devices can become smaller and more convenient.

Corliss looked up and scanned the other people in CIC below. Each person's information appeared in her AR glasses, even the items displayed information, though much of it was obscured; she could only see their names, blood types...

A rapid beeping sound came from Corliss's ear, and the next second, the monocular display showed: Signal in progress.

Immediately, an image appeared in the single eye: a gray ground in front of me, seemingly on the ground.

"What is this?" Corliss asked, puzzled.

"This is the reconnaissance airship we're about to send out... used for high-altitude reconnaissance of the cult's base. According to our informants, the cult's branch is likely located in this area..."

As Zhou Mingrui spoke, a map of the kingdom quickly appeared in Corliss's AR eyes, with one area highlighted.

"Is the cult's stronghold hidden in this area...?"

Corliss slowly frowned. The cult's stronghold was located in the Sharp Horn Mountains in the eastern part of the kingdom, less than 30 kilometers from the Republic of Kalva... Could it be related to the Republic of Kalva?

"Our airship will arrive in this area in 6 hours and conduct 20 hours of high-altitude reconnaissance."

"You can fly here in just 6 hours?"

"The distance between Shangqiu and the cult's stronghold is almost across half the kingdom!" Corliss asked in surprise.

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

At Shangqiu Airport, a Y-8 transport aircraft is undergoing preparation, with personnel and equipment being loaded into the open cabin.

Wearing black exoskeleton armor and < helmets, five sergeants entered the cabin one after another, while five finalized Type 59-X battlefield support drones squeezed into the cabin at the same time.

After entering the designated area, 59-X entered standby mode, its four robotic arms folded up, and the crew quickly secured them to the cabin with tether locks.

Meanwhile, in a secluded corner of Shangqiu.

A log transport truck with eight large wheels, clad in digital camouflage, slowly drove out of the garage. The truck door was marked with EP404, and the square box at the rear was marked with the DF-10A logo.

Chapter 71 The Royal Family with a Very Good Awareness

“Miss Corliss, next you can try looking left and right…” Zhou Mingrui said mysteriously to Corliss.

"Ok?"

Corliss looked at Zhou Mingrui with a puzzled expression, then tried to move her gaze. The view through the AR glasses shifted, and the image actually moved with her gaze...

"Huh? It moves?"

Collice let out a surprised "Eh!" Zhou Mingrui seemed to know what she was surprised about and explained:

"Yes, the system has recognized your AR glasses' permissions and has the right to access the Rainbow-5's photoelectric ball. However, this is only limited to before takeoff. After takeoff, most external permissions will be locked, and all flight permissions will be handed over to the Rainbow-5 drone for its own control. The operator will only intervene if the drone becomes uncontrollable."

There are no threats within the Kingdom of Bel, making the Rainbow-5 reconnaissance and strike drone a suitable choice. Its piston engine provides an extended cruising time, allowing it to scan along the route provided by the bell, while simultaneously using synthetic aperture radar to scan the ground and transmit the data back to the Shangqiu base.

With terrain data and the terminal guidance of the Rainbow-5... the implications are self-evident.

"Oh."

Corliss nodded as if she understood, then turned her head to look to the side. The photoelectric ball followed Corliss's movements and turned. To her right, there were two other strange airships (Rainbow-5 drones) on the ground, seemingly preparing to take off.

Some people wearing yellow vests were busy around the airship, hanging cylindrical objects under the wings. Corliss couldn't help but observe them, but after looking for a long time, she still couldn't figure out what these cylindrical objects were for.

Corliss pursed her lips, feeling as ignorant as a child, which made her feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Humans have a natural thirst for knowledge, although people in some countries, such as India, don't think so.

After working for more than ten minutes, the Wing Loong drone's system performed a self-check, while the ground crew checked the drone's external condition.

After the self-inspection found no abnormalities and the ground crew also found no abnormalities, they removed the blocks blocking the landing gear tires and quickly evacuated the vicinity of the Wing Loong UAV.

The heavy oil engine of the Rainbow-5 UAV started, and the propeller slowly began to rotate, propelling the UAV to glide at high speed on the runway. After reaching takeoff speed, the nose of the aircraft lifted up, and the Rainbow-5 slowly took off.

The optical signals captured by the light dot ball are transmitted to Corliss's AR glasses. The image captured by the light dot probe can be clearly seen in the high-definition picture, and the image can even be zoomed in or out using the buttons on the AR glasses.

This gave Corliss a novel experience, completely different from the experience of flying boats.

On CIC's kingdom map, the bright spot representing Rainbow-5 appeared on the electronic map, gradually flying towards the area where the cult might exist.

Besides aerial reconnaissance, data analysis can also be used to determine whether there are cult bases in the vicinity. However, this method requires a long investigation period and is prone to causing personnel losses and alerting the enemy.

"Miss Corliss..."

Zhou Mingrui handed Corliss a copy of the agreement, which was bilingual in the Kingdom and Chinese, and explained, "...Our operation this time is codenamed 'Dawn.' The entire operation is divided into four steps: reconnaissance, analysis, and identification of the cult's stronghold; dispatching personnel to infiltrate enemy territory to rescue the children trapped in the cult's human research institute; and finally, withdrawing and completely destroying the cult's stronghold..."

"...During the reconnaissance operation, after discovering the cult's stronghold, the opportunity was fleeting. For this operation, we hope to obtain authorization to use force within the kingdom's territory. We guarantee that it will only be directed against the cult, and your personnel will be dispatched to supervise the entire process."

The rabbit will not fire the first shot, but that is aimed at other countries. Terrorists, cultists, and anti-human elements are not even human. The only thing the rabbit needs to do is send them to meet their gods.

"That's why I came here. The kingdom cannot tolerate the actions of the cult."

Corliss nodded with a serious expression. Before leaving, Queen Estée had explained the current situation of the kingdom to her. Although the empire had temporarily calmed down, its wolfish ambitions were obvious.

If the people of Shangqiu want to attack the religious order, then give them the authority. The kingdom and Shangqiu share the same interests in dealing with the religious order.

Using Shangqiu to eliminate the cult's malignant tumor within the kingdom is entirely in the kingdom's interest. As for any citizens of the kingdom who might be within the cult, in Queen Estie's heart, they no longer belong to the kingdom!

After eliminating the cult by force in Shangqiu, Queen Estée will immediately overhaul the kingdom's administrative structure in the cult's territory, as these people are no longer reliable.

“Excellent political wisdom, Miss Corliss.”

Putting away the agreement, Zhou Mingrui sincerely praised the kingdom's royal family, saying that they knew how to assess the situation and make certain "compromises"... at least they weren't as arrogant and self-confident as India, who always thought they were so capable.

After the two copies of the agreement were signed and sealed by each other, the Kingdom and Shangqiu exchanged the agreement. From that moment on, the agreement had legal effect, and the restrictions on subsequent actions were greatly relaxed.

After obtaining authorization to use force, the entire Dawn Operation entered into Plan A, and the precisely meshed gears of the system began to turn.

The rabbit's primary focus for now is on developing Shangqiu, but with the cult's stronghold exposed, there's no reason not to disrupt the cult's operations and completely eliminate their stronghold.

Plan B, on the other hand, is an action plan that does not require authorization to use force. In Plan B, the rabbit will only provide aerial reconnaissance and gather intelligence for the kingdom, and will absolutely not deploy troops. The kingdom will be left to deal with the issue of the cult.

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

At the airport, two other reconnaissance and strike aircraft, loaded with munitions, entered the takeoff procedure, and five minutes later, two Rainbow-5 aircraft fully loaded with munitions took off.

Ten minutes later, the Y-8 transport plane carrying the sergeants took off. They would act as the vanguard, penetrating deep into the cult's controlled territory, and decide whether to enter the human laboratory to rescue the hostages, depending on the situation.

The EP404, equipped with eight wheels, moved into its attack position, and the hydraulic system lifted the vehicle body to stabilize its position.

The DF-10 (also known as the Changjian-10 cruise missile) enters the launch procedure, and the launch container slowly rises.

The doors of the three launch containers slowly opened, revealing the blue-tipped Changjian-10A cruise missiles inside, ready to be launched at any time.

Although it lacks GPS guidance from the BeiDou satellite, it doesn't matter. Inertial guidance and the digital maps sent back by the Rainbow-5 will be input into the cruise missile. The final attack guidance will be handed over to the ground CCT (ground fire controller) or the Rainbow-5 in the sky to perform terminal guidance.

Chapter 72: Subscriptions have stalled, please save the Führer!

After the launch point of the missile was determined, the DF-10 entered the stage where it could be launched at any time.

Incidentally, cruise missile warheads are not "truths," but rather all-anionic and all-nitrogen anionic salts, laser-guided bunker-buster bombs, and thermobaric weapons.

The portal would swallow the "Truth" warheads, and as for where they went, Zhou Mingrui suspected that the portal itself "recharged" itself.

To build the Truth, a complete nuclear industrial system needs to be established on Mingrui Star... which can't be done in a short time.

Even if there truly is truth, using "truth" within the kingdom is something a rabbit wouldn't do.

"Alright, Miss Corliss, now it's just a matter of waiting. You can go to the lounge next door to rest for a while. If you get hungry, the orderly will bring you some food."

"Thank you, I'm not tired yet."

After politely thanking her, Corliss began to play with the AR glasses. Although she had ridden in airships many times, the rapidly flying images in the glasses still fascinated her. How did such a flimsy "airship" fly into the sky?

Feeling his phone vibrate in his pocket, Zhou Mingrui looked up at his phone and then glanced down at the digital clock on the wall. It was time for Lingdang to be dismissed from school.

"Excuse me, Miss Corliss, I'll be right out."

After saying a polite greeting, Zhou Mingrui left the room, took out his internal Shangqiu cell phone, and a message popped up below the bell icon: I'm home.

Just as Zhou Mingrui was about to let Lingdang roam freely, he suddenly remembered that she was also a victim. Should he let her see what would happen to the perpetrators? But then he wondered if it would be bad for Lingdang's mental health.

I was conflicted for a moment... Uh, is this what it feels like to be a father?

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

"Lord Caesar..."

A bald man was observing an experimental subject bound to a pillar by thick chains. Upon seeing the middle-aged man, the person in charge quickly bowed.

"Ah."

Caesar gave a soft "hmm," but his gaze wasn't on the person in charge at all; instead, it was fixed on the experimental subject behind the glass—a little boy.

It's less like a little boy and more like a monster with a child's head and an extremely mutated body!

The monster is eating, but it's not food; it's the body of another child. The child, the food, has dilated pupils and stares blankly at the ceiling.

The monster devoured the corpse, tearing off chunks of flesh like a wild beast. Amidst the horrifying sounds of flesh and bone separating, the monster ripped off the child's arm, stuffed it into its belly, chewed it a few times, and then swallowed it.

The monster watched Caesar and the person in charge warily, occasionally letting out a threatening growl as it ate.

How did the test subject perform?

“It failed, sir…” The experimenter’s voice trembled slightly: “…The truth did not make it smarter, but instead turned Subject 336 into a cannibal. However, the subject’s physical strength far exceeds that of ordinary people, so it can be used as a weapon.”

Caesar nodded noncommittally, his brow furrowing almost imperceptibly as he looked at the little boy who had turned into a monster.

"Then feed No. 336 more food and perform a human sacrifice. Inject more Truth into the food before feeding him!"

As expected, even though children are best suited to merge with truth, the success rate is still very low. This means we don't have enough experimental material. Caesar instructed:

"Have the hunters kidnap more experimental subjects in various countries, and while they're at it, continue to win over officials in those countries and offer them services that aren't available elsewhere."

“Understood, Lord Caesar…” The person in charge nodded, hesitated for a moment, and asked, “...If we want to make a breakthrough in the truth, that special experimental subject is very important.”
