Saiyan stowaways on the Ark

The long-awaited action meeting was held again, and Kal'tsit explained the upcoming action plan to the high-ranking officials of Rhodes Island.

While saying the above, she deliberately glanced at someone who was present at the meeting but seemed distracted.

"But we have enough resources to stop an outsider from usurping Victoria's crown and thus preventing him from gaining more power and worsening the current situation. That is, Agent Venere. I think everyone here knows what she carries on her shoulders."

Everyone responded to Kal'tsit with nods or similar gestures.

Doctor of Battlefield Command.

Chief Instructor Du Bin.

Mechanical Supervisor Cleopatra.

Medical Director Kelsey.

SWEEP Manager

.......

And a temporary agent.

—Thomat always seems to be involved in high-level meetings, but he's gotten used to Kal'tsit's open and transparent approach towards him.

Rather than their tacit understanding as operators, Kal'tsit seems to have always viewed Thomas more as a partner who could be used as a last resort.

Therefore, maintaining information sharing as much as possible can also help prevent certain things from happening.

For example, he might actually blow up Ursus as well.

"Actually, you have a personal grudge against that person—or perhaps a national feud, W told me about it."

A while has passed since W was forcibly hired that day, and she doesn't know why she chose to stay on Rhodes Island.

So she was often seen at parties spontaneously organized by Rhodes Island mercenary operators.

Over time, and with some drunken slips of the tongue, he revealed quite a few things from his past.

For example, Rhodes Island was originally called Babel Tower, and it was originally a private army similar to that of the former Kazdel Queen "Theresia".

He was a benevolent ruler who governed Kazdel together with his brother Theresis.

However, the latter tends to use an iron fist of military force to govern various matters of the country.

Due to the separation of military and political power and ideological differences, the brother and sister became political enemies at some point, and assassination attempts became commonplace, with Theresis gaining the upper hand.

At that time, Rhodes Island—also known as Babel Tower—was basically operating alongside Theresa across the land, carrying out activities similar to those of Rhodes Island today: eliminating differences, spreading equality, and resisting persecution, rarely staying within Kazdel.

It is precisely because of this that, although she was not in the country, she gained the admiration of many people through her actions rather than her excessive maternal love. Many people found meaning in their existence for the first time through Theresa and vowed to defend everything she had for the rest of their lives.

However, as the queen of a nation, she still had to return to Kazdel occasionally. It was during one of her return trips that a sudden decapitation operation took Theresa's life. All members of Babel were also considered accomplices and suffered a devastating blow, with only a small number surviving.

W is one of them.

Theresa's death was hastily dismissed as an opposition rebellion, and Theresis naturally ascended to the throne of Kazdel.

The princess is dead, the Tower of Babel has collapsed, and the survivors are displaced.

What happened after that is unclear. In any case, the remodeled Tower of Babel reappeared in the world years later as "Rhodes Island" and continued its struggle against the injustice of the earth.

The above are all from W's drunken words. Although the actual situation is unclear, it has given the audience a general understanding. Of course, there weren't many listeners, since almost no one would want to sit next to W, even if they were both mercenaries.

According to her, the doctor was also a person from the time of the Tower of Babel, but now his personality has changed drastically due to amnesia, so it is meaningless to harbor resentment towards him.

"Personal grudge... I guess so. As expected of Mr. Thomas, he managed to obtain Rhodes Island's past data without my knowledge."

Attributing the organization's decisions to personal grudges is indeed offensive, but Kal'tsit remained silent for less than a second after hearing these words before offering praise devoid of any emotion.

"Should we tell her it was W talking nonsense while drunk...?"

Thomas thought this way, but then dismissed the idea when he remembered that selling W would allow her to spend another sunny day at the stern.

"I don't dislike Rhodes Island's current style. If that queen is the originator of Rhodes Island's style, then her brother, who doesn't get along with her and even uses assassination to solve problems, must not be a good person. He even provides military support for riots. Who knows how many more Reunion movements he can create after becoming emperor."

Thomas doesn't readily comment on benevolent governance or iron-fisted methods.

Both things have their own needs, which is easy for Tomat, who has seen many civilizations, to understand.

However, the most important thing is the result.

Sometimes benevolent governance leads to stagnation, sometimes an iron fist can become a tyranny of involution—and sometimes the exact opposite.

Regardless of whether Theresa's benevolent rule could change Terra, it's clear that in Theresa's case, nothing has gone well, because Kazdel, which Tomat saw, was still in ruins, the Sarkaz's situation had not improved, and the country's international standing remained that of a belligerent power broker.

Preventing such people from seizing more power is indeed in line with Rhodes Island's style.

"However, Ursus and Victoria are both national-level powers. Why would you prefer to fight against the latter?"

Thomas asked, because without considering his combat strength, Rhodes Island was insignificant in the face of any country.

“Through some political means, we will bring back to Victoria someone who is far more suited to the crown than Beatrice.”

"An escort mission? I'm familiar with that. When does it start?"

Tomat didn't ask any further questions, but instead inquired directly about the itinerary.

It sounds easy, but anyone with a brain knows that in Victoria's eyes, the usurper Therese was definitely not the only one who did not want the return of the legitimate dynasty.

Rhodes Island may soon face a force far more powerful than the Reunion Movement.

"When? Let's go on vacation first."

But Kal'tsit gave a completely unexpected answer that shocked everyone present.

[Main Text] Siesta's Hottest Holiday: Chapter Two - Saiyans Attract Each Other

Obtaining approval for the mobile platform to enter the tourist city took a lot of effort from the PhD and his colleagues.

Ultimately, with Mayor Hermann's approval, Rhode Island permitted the mobile platform to be driven onto the shore of the Siesta development.

Nearby, there are also many mobile platforms that are still under construction and belong to uninhabited areas, so they do not affect daily life.

After some maneuvering, Lungmen believed the intelligence that "it is absolutely impossible for a giant ape to appear in Lungmen during this period," and no longer wanted any disputes arising from Rhodes Island's temporary departure from that area.

"Don't go! I'm scared!"

Wei Yanwu's communications were practically a direct statement.

After a lot of back and forth, Rhodes Island seems to have embarked on its largest outing since its founding.

This has left the organizers exhausted.

"music!"

"Amusement park!"

"Food Street!"

"Beach barbecue!"

"Model and comic book shop!"

"The latest sexy swimsuit!"

"Nighttime Affection Event!"

However, seeing the many operators excitedly shouting various messages and rushing towards the soft sand after setting up the platform, the Doctor felt that all his hard work was worthwhile.

The operators weren't that unruly. After leaving the platform, nearly a thousand people—except for the on-duty medical staff who stayed on the ship to take care of the patients—gathered together, waiting for the Doctor, Kal'tsit, and Amiya to give them some routine instructions.

"Ah, this is the first time I've spoken directly in front of so many people."

The doctor's work has always been in battlefield command and similar positions. Although he sometimes tries to give pre-battle mobilization speeches, this kind of lighthearted and entertaining speech is a first for him.

The professor, looking embarrassed through his stuffy hood, scratched his head and cleared his throat, saying:

"Then I'll just say a few words..."

One hour later.

"Doctor, two-thirds of the people have already quietly slipped away."

Amiya tugged at the Doctor's sleeve, awkwardly offering a reminder.

The rest of the people were also yawning, looking drowsy.

If it weren't for the refreshing sea breeze, many people would probably have fainted from the heat.

"Ahem! Anyway, everyone had a great time. Today, Lady Kal'tsit will cover all your expenses! Right, Kal'tsit?"

The Doctor suddenly opened his arms and announced the disbandment, while speaking to Kal'tsit, who was stunned by being mentioned.

"...Really." Kal'tsit, rarely showing a headache, ignored the enthusiastic Doctor and said to the remaining operators, "Everyone, let's disperse. If you're not used to such a lively atmosphere, you can go back to the main ship to rest."

Just as Kal'tsit was about to turn around and return to the platform's passageway to continue staying on Rhodes Island, the Doctor and Amiya grabbed her hands on either side and forcefully turned her around, leading her onto the beach.

"Let's go have some fun, it's a rare opportunity to come all this way."

"Yes, Dr. Kelsey, it's good to relax once in a while."

The people who hurriedly left the beach left many footprints on the ground.

And now, the footprints of the three of them are also left there.

"I really... can't do anything with you guys."

Time: During the Obsidian Festival in Terran calendar 1097.

Location: Siesta Tourist Area

Weather: A clear, cloudless sky.

This is Siesta, a land blessed by the heavens.

The exceptional environment, free from natural disasters since the beginning of recorded history, has allowed this place to maintain a civilization operating in a fixed town format, which is extremely rare in Terra.

As a coastal city, the locals welcome people from all over the world every day, and these people often become residents of the city.

Their passion for music, love of food, and willingness to try new things make many people feel that "openness and inclusiveness" is a more fitting description for this place than for Longmen.

With its year-round sunny climate and abundant waterways, this place largely retains the stereotypical image of a coastal city—sands, blue waves, green trees, and plenty of recreational facilities.

The nearby Siesta volcano has brought a wealth of mineral resources to the area, among which obsidian is considered a local specialty and a highly desirable souvenir.

And all of the above is not even enough to fill the first few pages of the Siesta travel guide.
