Chapter 76: Hiding it? How is it possible?
"Tsk! Why are you screaming like a little kid? It's just replacing your calves with wheels. What's there to be afraid of?" Hearing the screams, the few Sangvis Ferri dolls who had come and gone returned to the door of the workshop.
At a glance, they saw Renault welding Architect's legs with a piece of the disassembled Prowler wheeled footgear.
Executioner didn't think there was anything to shout about; this was just a temporary situation. When Renault had time, he would definitely replace this thing, or more precisely, the entire body.
If you really can't adapt, then do it yourself. It's just replacing a calf. It's not like you haven't done it before. Any Sangvis Ferri elite doll can handle this little thing, right?
"Yes! But let's talk about this next time! I'll go around the ship first!"
Haha! When she first came here, she wanted to have her own room on this ship! Now she must choose a good location first!
After saying this, Architect controlled the newly installed wheel and rushed out at a very fast speed!
"Hey! Architect!" Seeing Architect rushing out so happily, Gager hurriedly spoke up and tried to stop this jumpy girl, but the newly installed wheel was indeed useful, and Architect's speed was really not slow.
When Gager ran to the door, Architect had already rushed to the elevator door.
"Don't worry about that guy, she can't get lost in the ship. You should come and deal with the wounds on your body first, otherwise the parts will rust or get moldy. Don't say I didn't remind you."
Hearing what Scarecrow said, Gager could only sigh and stay put.
During the battle with the military, she was the one who rushed to the front, and the drunk executioner's injuries were not as serious as hers. However, most of her injuries were minor, with only the bionic skin and some armor plates on her body being peeled off, which did not affect her movements. However, if she remained in this state for a long time, it would be possible for her to rust and get moldy, just as Scarecrow said.
Especially since they had just been in the snow for such a long time.
"You two..."
Just as Gager was lying on the workbench, waiting for repairs, Renault looked up at the two Scarecrows in front of him. The two Scarecrows had the same face.
Although Scarecrow at home had long since changed out of the backless outfit she wore when she was in Sangvis, their hairstyles had not changed much. It was still difficult to tell them apart just by looking at their faces.
Now, there were not only two Scarecrows on the spaceship, but also a Hunter and an Executioner. The three of them, who were not high-ranking in Sangvis, now had two of them, just like there were three pairs of twins on the ship.
If there was no distinction in the names, when he called out a name, two people would turn around and look at him. It would be very troublesome, wouldn't it?
"Hmm?" x2
Just like now, after hearing what Renault said, the two Scarecrows made the same movements at the same time, tilted their heads slightly, raised their eyebrows, and looked at Renault with a puzzled look...
If the two people were not wearing different clothes at this time, people would think there was a mirror next to Scarecrow.
"Think of a name for each of you, so that you won't be unable to tell who is who."
Hearing this, the two Scarecrows nodded in sync again. "Okay, but I need to think about it."
While saying this, the two Scarecrows looked at each other, and their eyes seemed to have reached some kind of consensus, but it seemed as if they were communication to each other.
Name?
The Gager lying on the workbench, after hearing what Renault said, began to wonder whether she should also think of a name. But then she realized that it was probably not necessary. After all, she didn't know whether the Sangvis would recreate her and Architect. She would think about it when she really saw them.
While Renault and the two Scarecrows were repairing Gager and the group of broken Sangvis dolls, the dolls on the ship were of course not idle.
How could they be idle after just picking up a lot of "treasures"?
They were either pushing carts or carrying some parts and running through the corridor like a train, fearing that Renault would see what they were holding.
Although Renault let these little guys make a fuss, he was not worried that they would blow up the spaceship or something. First, he was confident in the sturdiness of the spacecraft. Second, well...
"How far have they gotten with their stuff?"
"We have just disassembled the main body of the SCV. The assembly work has not started yet. Moreover, the original energy system of the SCV cannot support so many pieces of equipment and devices. They were still having a headache the other day," Scarecrow responded while removing the scrapped parts of a Ripper.
"Oh, then it will probably not be long before these guys come knocking again." Renault rolled his eyes. It was okay to let Scarecrow be responsible for assembly, but the energy system of the SCV was not Scarecrow's business scope.
That's right. Who else but Scarecrow could help Nagant Revolver and the others tinker with that big toy?
You should know that apart from Scarecrow, no other doll on the spacecraft would get involved in the play of those little guys. Besides, even if they wanted to get involved, they needed to have something in their hands... Not everyone is as omnipotent as Scarecrow.
"Maybe, but they are still excited, and they probably haven't thought about that yet."
Scarecrow shrugged her shoulders. According to the way Nagant Revolver and the others were thinking about it, it might take a while before they thought of asking Renault for help. However, given their current posture of wanting to hide it from Renault, it seems uncertain...
Unfortunately, there were no other technicians on the ship except Renault and Scarecrow. UMP45 and UMP40 were only proficient in electronic warfare.
It was not a big deal, so Renault did not continue to think about it.
Gager had already walked out of the repair warehouse at this time, looked back at the amount of remaining materials on the control panel of the repair warehouse, and looked at the Sangvis Ferri dolls waiting for repair.
"There are not many bionic materials left, not enough to repair so many dolls."
"Ah, I know, I'll find a way to get someone to buy some for me later."
It's not a good idea to buy these doll-specific materials on the black market for a long time, so it's more cost-effective to buy them directly from IOP.
It just so happened that there was a small favor for Griffin just now. If he asks Helian, she shouldn't mind, right?
Chapter 77: Unconvincing!**
"The materials are ready, Master G11! What should we do next?" C96 moved the last box of materials to G11 and saluted.
"We need a new main structure now! The current structure of this SCV isn't strong enough to support so many heavy weapons and equipment. We also need a new energy system, but I've prepared it in advance! These are the design drawings. The materials are sufficient for the commander's body materials."
G11 nodded with satisfaction, looking at the materials in front of her. She took out several lists of materials from the bag she carried and distributed them to Nagant Revolver and C96 one by one.
SOP2 stood next to the materials, eager to start.
As for the Hydra they brought back not long ago, it was currently communicating with the Manticore they brought back earlier. Both the Manticore and Hydra use automaton systems produced by Sangvis Ferri, so their behavior patterns are somewhat similar.
To be precise, they are somewhat like Dinergates, but due to their large size, they aren't as lively and active. They only move their bodies slightly within a limited range, turn around, or do something similar.
"Oh! Is this the design drawing of the new machine? It looks so cool!" SOP2 looked at the blueprint placed on the table by G11, eager to start and clearly wanting to build it.
"I guess so. I saw this in the training device. It's on the workbench next to Swan. I wrote it down when I saw it, but there are still some omissions in the engine part. I may need to test it a bit, or..." G11 trailed off, considering asking the commander.
After all, the scenes in the training device are all reproduced from the commander's memory. While they can't see everything in the training device, the commander must have more detailed drawings.
"Eh? Is that so? But the size on this design drawing... isn't it a bit too big?" NZ75 walked over to look at the design drawing. At first glance, she thought the machine looked very domineering, but then she noticed the size.
The height of the machine itself is about twelve meters, but the height of this warehouse is only a little over eight meters. It can't fit in anyway, right?
And the door of the warehouse is only a bit over six meters high, and the width seems insufficient...
Even if it's built, it seems like it can't get out of the door, right? You can't tear down the wall of the spacecraft, can you? Then the commander will definitely hang them on the deck!
"Don't worry! Absolutely no problem! Just scale it down! As long as the engine problem is solved, everything else isn't an issue!" G11 waved her hand confidently, pretending to have a goatee and twisting her imaginary beard.
"Uh, I always feel like something is going to go wrong... How about we just..." Hearing this, Super-Shorty backed off a bit.
She shouldn't have trusted C96 in the first place. This doesn't sound like a good idea at all!
Building the body would be fine, but dealing with the engine... Just thinking about it made Super-Shorty feel like she was going to explode.
M500 also nodded and wiped the cold sweat off her face.

"Really, every time you want to buy something, you think of me!" Helian's complaints suddenly rang out from the phone.
Although she was complaining, the two Scarecrows looked at the holographic image of Helianthus in front of Renault and could clearly see that the corners of her mouth were rising uncontrollably.
Seeing this, the two nodded at the same time, understanding something.
No wonder Renault always gets the upper hand from Griffin. There is a traitor on their side, and this traitor is the main agent in Griffin...
Griffin, in such a bad state, will go bankrupt sooner or later...
"Well, anyway, it's these materials. The quantity is a bit large. When the time comes, just let IOP send them to the warehouse at your headquarters or the Global Everything airport warehouse next door." With the pass from the Global Everything Company, it should be no problem to borrow the warehouse temporarily.
"Well, doll materials, rare metal materials, neural core materials... and, uh, ammunition..." Looking at the list of materials sent by Renault, Helian nodded first, but when she saw the last few items, her brows suddenly furrowed.
"Renault, the materials in front are okay. After all, they are common industrial materials, most of which can be used by dolls. But as for ammunition materials, I'm afraid they can't be transported directly to the Global Everything airport. That's a civilian airport, and such materials are contraband." Helian said with a headache.
The last time she was able to buy ammunition materials from IOP and send them to Renault's ship, it was because her boss was there. With her relationship with IOP, she gave the green light to send them.
Now, if the boss doesn't speak up, for this kind of materials, even for her, seem a bit...
"Well, these are all trivial matters. If you can't buy those things, then you can't buy them. Just help me find a few resource areas in the red zone."
Now in this world, there are large areas in occupied by the red zone. Although the Third World War ended many years ago, only few people go to develop and clean up those places. Even if dolls who are not affected by collapse radiation are used for reclamation work, it still costs money. Especially the cost of electricity, just laying various pipelines and maintaining them in such a place is a big expense.
"Well, okay, just don't complain when the time comes." Hearing what Renault said, Helian could guess that he wanted to get it for free, but the things in the red zone are now really owned only by the capable.
If you can't take it back, the ownership is just empty talk.
"Then please, the money has been transferred to Griffin's public account. You can deal with it when the time comes."
"Humph, you just know how to throw all the troubles at me!"
The two Scarecrows who heard Helian's words shook their heads at the same time.
These words from Helian now have no persuasiveness.
If you want to complain, can you put away the bright smile on your face first?
Just after Renault hung up the phone, before Helian had time to put it down, the door of the office was pushed open.
"Hey, it's rare to see you laughing so..."
"Why are you here again? Persica, can you knock on the door first next time?"
"Ahem, sorry, sorry, but this is a bit urgent. Did you ask the AR team to retrieve the Jupiter Cannon from the Sangvis Ferri this time?"
Chapter 78: You Two Are Probably Dreaming of Going to the Sky!
"The current battle situation in that area is still unclear. How can we send people to get those Jupiter cannons directly?" Helian rolled her eyes at Persica's question.
What's more, the Jupiter cannon is so huge that it will take a long time to dismantle. Griffin doesn't have the means to transport the Jupiter cannon back directly.
"And when did you become interested in the Jupiter cannon? It has nothing to do with your research goals, right?"
Persica is studying dolls, although she created the imprint system initially.
But that system was essentially developed to improve the combat efficiency of dolls.
It is obviously not the same as a simple and straightforward weapon like the Jupiter cannon.
What's wrong with this guy? Why did she suddenly start asking about the Jupiter cannon?
Although the boss also mentioned they would try to send people to get a Jupiter Cannon, there were not only Sangvis Ferri artillery platforms in that area but also a group of aggressive military teams.
It had not been long since Gentiane called her, so the battle should still be ongoing in that area.
"What's wrong with that? You know, the Jupiter Cannon was obtained by Sangvis Ferri after invading the military server. I don't believe that you Griffin are not interested in that thing at all."
Hearing Helian's question, Persica squinted her eyes and smiled.
With the bionic ears on her head, she looked like a fox...
But this fox was a little sloppy... How long had it been since her clothes were washed?
Obviously, there were many dolls helping in Persica's research institute. How did this guy make herself look so sloppy?
"Forget it, it's hard to tell right now. The AR team has already withdrawn from that area. We'll know the specific situation soon." Helian waved her hand.
The AR team was about to return to Gentiane's base, so she could just wait that long.
---
"Those guys seem to be tinkering with the materials in the factory zone. Commander, are you sure you don't want to go and have a look?"
Looking at the dolls coming and going outside the door, carrying materials...
Those are the materials that Renault kept for making doll bodies, right? Is it really okay for these troublemakers to take them away as toys?
"It's okay. Those materials are about to be phased out. The current doll bodies are too heavy. We'll just replace them with other materials after a while."
"Uh... do we need to change them again?" Hearing what Renault said, Scarecrow touched her stomach helplessly.
She had just replaced the new energy engine, and now she had to replace her new body in less than half a day?
Isn't this a bit too fast?
"Well, but don't worry, it's still a while, probably a few months."
"Hey, Commander, I think you'd better go and take a look. They seem to have figured out something amazing and are planning to test it." Just as Renault clapped his hands and was about to continue repairing the next Sangvis Ferri doll, Type 80, who was chewing bubble gum, poked her head out of the workshop door and reminded him.
Although she didn't know what G11 and SOP2 had tinkered about, the device looked blue and was clearly not an ordinary thing at first glance.
It also looked a bit like the energy engine that Renault had just replaced for them...
"Huh?" Renault frowned when he heard Type 80's words.
Although Type 80 had not been on the ship for too long, Renault knew the personality of this little guy who was about the same height as C96 and M1919A4, and was completely different from those jumpy little guys.
Very calm and reliable, she was the type to obviously not play around with this kind of things.
"Scarecrow, I'll leave this to you for now. I'll go take a look."
After saying that, Renault quickly picked up his phone, checked the surveillance camera of the warehouse where G11 and the others were, and quickened his pace.
Especially after seeing the device assembled by G11 and SOP2, he even started running!
Type 80 originally wanted to follow and take a look, but remembering the work that M1 Garand had asked her to do, she could only scratch her cheek. Now she could only pray that Renault could stop those guys who were about to 'break the sky'.
"Ready! Click..." Just as Renault rushed to the warehouse, G11 was holding a switch-like thing and was about to press the button on it.
However, before she could finish her words, Renault grabbed the top of her head...
"Ah! It hurts!" G11, who was grabbed by Renault, screamed immediately, and SOP2, who was standing opposite G11 and next to the device, swallowed hard at this moment...
The expression on Commander Renault's face was so scary... It was the first time she had seen Commander Renault with a serious expression on his face!
"Sorry! Master G11!"
C96 and the others muttered and tiptoed out of the warehouse door.
Bang!
Before these guys could get away, Renault had already closed the door of the warehouse using his mobile phone.
Seeing the heavy door slam shut in front of them, Nagant Revolver and the others panicked!
It's over! This time, they will definitely be hung on the deck by the commander!
"Master? You dare to call yourself a master just because you have learned a few tricks! Do you want to blow the whole ship to pieces?"
The location of this warehouse is right in the center of the spaceship. If the device made by G11 and SOP2 explodes...
Even a very sturdy spaceship cannot withstand the huge impact from the inside! At that point, it's the best case scenario is to be broken into pieces. After all, several dolls in this warehouse may be directly melted by the huge energy of the engine explosion...
Renault recognized the device made by G11 and SOP2 at a glance. It was the scrapped design that Swan had taken out when he shrunk the Odin Mech.
That engine is just a scaled-down version of Odin's engine, but that is obviously not feasible. It is impossible to make this engine run normally just by scaling it down.
As for the consequences of forcing a vehicle to start when it cannot run normally, it goes without saying.
It's not like Swan hasn't blown up his own maintenance warehouse before...
And what are these garbage parts piled up next to it? Some parts are not even the right size, and the metal materials of each component are incorrect... Even if G11 and SOP2 really solve the energy problem, the big SCV in front of them can only become a piece of inconspicuous scrap metal!
Chapter 79: What Do You Need That Thing For?
"So, where do you get the courage to use a design drawing of unknown origin?" Renault said unhappily, knocking on G11's little head. If Type 80 hadn't mentioned it, he would probably still be thinking about how to repair his spaceship!
"Well, because it was right next to Swan... I thought it was..."
She thought it was a complete design blueprint... Who would have thought for a thing so well drawn, but in the end, it was just the "homework" of a small foreman under Swan.
"Thought? You probably thought you had learned to be a master!?"
Led by G11, Nagant Revolver, and SOP2, all stood there obediently, shrinking their necks and listening to Renault's lecture. Outside the warehouse, MDR was recording a video through the ship's monitoring system. HK416 stood beside her, helplessly watching Renault on the screen lecturing the little guys.
"I'm afraid Renault is really angry this time," HK416 shook her head. She originally wanted to check on G11, but who would have thought that this guy would stir up such a big mess this time.
Look at how angry Renault is, from a taciturn commander to a chattering old woman.
It's better not to go in at this time just to also get berated,, and it's just right for G11, who suddenly got too excited by her 'knowledge', to calm down.
MDR, who filmed Renault's lecture, was obviously in a good mood, flipping through the videos she had taken on her phone.
Looking at the large number of videos on MDR's phone, HK416 couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.
This guy! When did she take these videos? Has she accumulated so many horrifying videos?!
Fortunately, these videos cannot be directly stuffed into the black history album issued by MDR, which is probably a good thing...
After all, compared with videos, the shame derived from the photos... may be slightly reduced...
"There are so many already. It seems it's time to ask the commander if he can make a sturdy gallery device."
At that time, all these photos and videos will be stored directly in it, and there will even be holographic images in the future.
Sturdy? Gallery Device?
After hearing what MDR said, HK416 understood what MDR wanted to do. This guy is no longer satisfied with a black history album with only photos!
As MDR was talking, she turned around and saw HK416 with wide eyes. Thinking it was not good, she grabbed her mobile phone and ran away from HK416, holding the hat on her head!
Looking at MDR running away, HK416 wanted to chase after her, but after thinking carefully, what would it be useful to chase him?
Could it be possible to reset MDR's neural cloud?
If MDR said she didn't have a backup of the things in his hands, she would not believe it.
Therefore, she had to give up. Renault's lecture in the warehouse would obviously continue for a while. So HK416 also left the warehouse door directly. Otherwise, standing there uselessly wouldn't help. It would be better to go to the training room and check which training scene G11 trained in.
She had just replaced her power core. If it weren't for the fact that a lot of combat data was recorded in the training device, there is no reason why G11 would adapt to the new engine faster than her. Besides, even AR15, who was replaced first, is not as flexible as that guy. Really... If she doesn't work harder, she will probably be at the bottom of the combat line, right?
...
"In other words... the battle over there is over?"
"Yes, when the AR team left, the military units around the airport had been cleared by AR15 and others." Gentiane nodded and confirmed the battle situation she described again.
"Hiss..." Seeing Gentiane's extremely confident expression, Helian sighed with a headache. She knew Renault was brave, but this time... dozens of Hydras, a bunch of Hinds, and an unknown number of Cyclops.
The military units around the airport alone were far beyond her expectations. So many automaton units were reimbursed at one time. Even the wealthy military would not sit idly by this time, right?
Global Everything might not stop those guys this time. After all, what Renault did was really too much...
And once Global Everything does not stop the military, whether the military takes action directly or with the help of the Statesec, Renault's future life might not be as good as before. Besides, that guy just asked her to purchase supplies from IOP through Griffin's relationship...
But the relationship on Griffin's side is, to put it bluntly, the relationship with her boss. This relationship is ultimately a relationship on the military side. Now that Renault has directly interfered with the military's actions, it is unknown whether the military can still make things easier for Griffin and Renault.
"Huh? What are you hissing for? Do you have a toothache?" Persica held a cup of thick coffee that looked questionable and approached the holographic image in a strange way.
"Persica?" Seeing Persica, Gentiane's face suddenly turned black. She was most afraid of seeing Persica now. Troublesome commissions came one after another from her mouth. Anyway, most of the difficult tasks came from Persica's mouth.
"Oh, good morning. Are you interested in helping me recently..."
"No! Not at all!"
Without waiting for Persica to finish her words, Gentiane raised her hand and gestured a big "X" in front of her, righteously refusing.
Before, she was able to grit her teeth and take the job because Persica offered a high price, and Helian also agreed. But now Helian hasn't said anything yet, so how could she take a "private job" from Persica in front of her boss?
"Gentiane, are the transportation equipment in your base complete now? What about the dolls?"
Hearing Helian's sudden question, Gentiane raised her eyebrows. Obviously, there must be some mission, and it is probably to transport something, otherwise, Helian would have no reason to ask about the transportation equipment.
After all, the transportation equipment she had was just some trucks.
"Well, it's still complete. Those trucks have been maintained all the time, and the dolls are basically here now."
Except for a few maintenance dolls, most of the dolls are in the base.
"That's perfect. I have a mission here. Go to the area that the AR team just evacuated and bring back the Jupiter cannons that Sangvis Ferri abandoned intact."
"Huh? Move? Move Jupiter cannons?" Hearing this, Gentiane was really shocked.
Where did this mission come from? What was the purpose of moving a huge thing like a Jupiter cannon?
Chapter 80: How Do You Remember It So Clearly?
"How should I know? You should ask her about this kind of thing," Helian said with a headache, reaching out to pull Persica, who was watching the show, over.
"I, uh..."
She knew it! This kind of outrageous and incomprehensible task! It must have come from that bastard Persica!
"Persica, can you post some more realistic and reliable commissions next time? Moving Jupiter cannons... You really thought of it. If it's just transporting some easy-to-carry supplies, it's fine, but Jupiter cannons..."
Gentiane shook her head helplessly. "I advise you to give up this idea. The Sangvis Ferri in that area just had a big battle with the military. Both the military and the Sangvis Ferri may continue to send combat units to occupy that area."
If she really sent people to dismantle those Jupiter cannons, she might be surrounded by the Sangvis Ferri or the military before she could dismantle one. At that time, her dolls would really be unable to escape.
If it was just the Sangvis Ferri, it would be okay. At most, she would just fight hard, but if she was surrounded by the military...what would she do? Surrender? Leave the lives of her dolls to the military? Or go all out and fight the military?
No matter which option, it was not the scene she wanted to see.
Hearing what Gentiane said, Persica scratched her head in annoyance. In fact, before she came to Helian, she had already discussed the matter of the Jupiter cannon with Kryuger, but unfortunately, the other party rejected her commission because of the intervention of the military.
Now she came to Helian just to see if Gentiane had any other good ideas.
Otherwise, she would be unwilling to give up like this...
Looking at Persica biting her fingers with a tangled look on her face, Gentiane immediately raised her hand to wipe the sweat off her face, but then she saw the mobile phone next to her...
"By the way, let me give you a suggestion. For this kind of commission that may conflict with the military, you'd better find a more courageous company." As she spoke, Gentiane picked up the phone and shook it in front of Persica.
Seeing Gentiane's actions, Helian, who had just stepped aside, immediately understood.
Isn't this hint obvious? It was almost like telling Persica, ‘Go find that guy Renault quickly. Only that guy who values money over life will take on such a dangerous commission.’
Of course, the second half of the sentence was added by Helian herself, but it was also true. She didn’t think that under such circumstances, any security contractor would dare to make trouble in the area where the military was active.
Except for Renault, who didn’t care about the consequences at all…
As early as when Renault hadn’t built his spaceship, he had already been on the military’s watch list, and the same was true for Statesec. However, compared with the military, Statesec had cooperated with Renault several times, so they were not so averse to Renault.
But this time… According to the scale of the losses of the military units, God knows what the military’s reaction will be.
Although the only three remaining members of the AR team did not witness Renault’s raid on the military’s combat command center, Renault was not a fool and naturally knew how to deal with the military’s combat units.
Therefore, it was clear that Renault would definitely attack the military’s command system. In addition, those combat units of the military must be commanded by someone... and according to Renault's attitude towards those mercenaries, as well as the attitude of those who were sent by the military to inquire about Renault's news in the past...
In short, Renault is likely to become a thorn in the military's side this time. She just hopes this guy will not conflict with the military when he returns to the city to pick up the goods she holds.
Thinking of this, Helian shook her head and sighed, picked up her tablet, and arranged all the matters of purchasing materials because Renault had paid the money.
Just as Helian lowered her head to arrange things, Persica also lowered her head and pondered.
Like Helian, when she saw the mobile phone in Gentiane's hand, she had already thought of the guy named Renault...
That bastard! He actually kidnapped AR15 and SOP2! And now she has to rely on that guy to transport the Jupiter cannon back. If that huge spaceship is used for transportation, it is really very convenient.
If Kryuger had agreed to her commission before, Griffin would have helped contact a large transport plane to transport the disassembled Jupiter cannon back.
However, in that case, the Jupiter cannon would need to be disassembled more carefully, and then it would take some time to be transported to the airport for loading.
All in all, it would take at least seven or eight hours to complete, but if it was replaced with Renault's spaceship...
There is no need to further disassemble the Jupiter cannon. Just separate the Jupiter cannon's barrel from the base below, and remove the energy supply and control modules below, and then it can be transported back directly.
The time spent in the meantime can be immediately compressed to about one to two hours, which is still a conservative estimate.
Persica always feels that Renault can definitely do it faster...
"Okay! Then help me contact that guy!" After thinking for a while, Persica made up her mind. Although she was a little angry with Renault, Renault was the only one who could bring back the Jupiter cannon.
"Oh, I... can't you just call him yourself?" Gentiane was about to call Renault's number, but then she reacted and raised her eyebrows at Persica.
Renault's number, as long as you call it, you will definitely be able to talk. Although she doesn't know what technology is used, it is obviously not the time for her to help make the call. Her boss has already refused the job. When the military investigates, Griffin will not be able to explain clearly what happened.
"Eh? Okay, I'll try. Helian, what's Renault's phone number?"
Although Persica said so, she had already taken out an ordinary mobile phone in her hand and entered the first few digits very skillfully.
"The last three digits are 052, how do you remember it so clearly?" Helian, who saw it clearly from the side, immediately raised her eyebrows and asked in a strange way, and couldn't help but suspect Persica in her heart.
Could it be that she was also targeting Renault?
However, when she thought about it, she thought of Renault's temper, which was like a rock, and she felt relieved. Apart from her, no one would be interested in such a guy, right?
"I wrote it down when I was studying the mobile phone made by Renault. I really want to pry open his head to see what's inside. The technology used in this mobile phone seems to have appeared suddenly, and the principle is also...ah, hello? Renault?"
There was no waiting time when she dialed the number. The call was connected instantly, which made Persica stunned, and then she heard Renault's voice in the receiver.
"What's the matter?"
Chapter 81: Let's Just Dismantle It
Tilting his head and holding the phone, Renault carefully dismantled the unreliable device that G11 and SOP2 had put together. Although it wasn't started and not properly assembled, it was precisely because of the inadequate assembly that Renault was so careful.
Even if he knew the internal structure of this unreliable engine that was pieced together, who knew if any accidents would happen due to the irregular operation of G11 and SOP2.
As for the phone clamped to his ear, he knew who it was as soon as he saw the number. It was Persica, the guy who made a lot of harassing calls a while ago.
Of course, Persica's calls were different from Helian's. She would only call if she really had something to do, but Persica would make calls during experiments. Under normal circumstances, she would not say anything when answering the phone, but would hang up quickly.
He thinks it should be similar this time...
"I have a commission here, do you want to take it?"
Commission?
Renault, who thought Persica would hang up immediately after the call was connected, raised his eyebrows. This was a bit strange. Persica had Griffin's backing, and she would always go to Griffin first to solve any mission commissions. Besides, she had the AR team as her trump card.
But now she suddenly called to say that there was a commission, which was probably not a simple matter, right?
"Content, reward."
On the other side of the phone, Persica, who heard Renault ask about the commission for the first time, was choked by the two words that Renault suddenly said, but then shook her head and put them behind her.
There are all kinds of strange dolls made by IOP. It's not like she hasn't seen such people before, but she has never met a human who acts like this before.
"The commission is to transport a complete Jupiter cannon from the artillery platform of the Sangvis Ferri. The price is up to you."
As the leader of 16Lab and Griffin's partner, Persica still had sufficient funds in her pocket, so she said it directly without thinking.
"Okay, where to send it?"
"Griffin headquarters?" Persica hesitated and said uncertainly.
"Got it, wait for the news."
"Huh? Did he hang up now?" Hearing the other party hang up the phone, Persica blinked in disbelief and turned to look at Helian.
"He is like this. Griffin's airport is empty now. You can wait for someone to fetch the Jupiter cannon." Helian, who was already sitting behind her desk, looked up and said.
Since Persica has already said that the price is arbitrary, Renault will definitely not refuse such a commission, because this task is simply a free gift for him.
She knew that Renault's spaceship had two complete Jupiter cannons. Even if he failed to get a new one from the Sangvis Ferri's artillery platform, the worst-case scenario was to dismantle one from the spaceship, but Helian felt that Renault was unlikely to dismantle his own spaceship.
As long as the military did not destroy all of the Sangvis Ferri's Jupiter cannons, it would take only a few minutes to move a Jupiter cannon back. After all, that guy has so many Sangvis Ferris on his ship...
...
Watching Renault hang up the phone, G11 and SOP2 looked at each other.
Obviously, this was a job, which meant that they wouldn't have to stand here any longer...
"Don't look at me. You guys won't have a part in the job. Just sort out all the parts and take them back to the factory for recycling. These dangerous goods will be confiscated." He rolled his eyes at these guys, picked up the core of the engine, and walked towards the door of the warehouse.
"Yes." Hearing this, Nagant Revolver and others responded helplessly. Obviously, their plan had completely failed. The toys hadn't been made yet, and the whole plan was rejected by Renault.
G11 and SOP2 also sighed at the same time.
However, just as Renault walked to the door, he suddenly turned around and said, "Next time you make these things, learn them first before you start." After that, Renault walked out directly, ready to notify wz.29 to change course, and at the same time called Scarecrow and others to find someone to dismantle the remaining Jupiter cannons and tidy up the cargo hold, otherwise there would be no place to put the big Jupiter cannons.
"Huh?" G11 and SOP2, who were still sighing, stared at what Renault said before he walked out, and then reacted!
This is clearly an agreement!
"Aha! Now the plan can continue! G11! Come on! Where did you learn this technology last time? Go and learn it carefully!" Nagant Revolver also jumped up excitedly, grabbed G11, and pushed her towards the training room.
"Eh? Ah? I don't know where to learn it!"
"Hey! I can ask Scarecrow for help later!"
"Wait! Wait! Why do I have to learn it!"
"I want to learn it too!"
A group of dolls pushed G11 towards the training room, leaving a mess in the warehouse...
NZ75 looked at the parts in front of her and rubbed her eyebrows with a headache. These guys were more excited than anyone else when they moved them here, and now they run faster than anyone else when they hear that they have to clean up!
Damn it!
It seems that she can only ask the Rippers for help. With so many parts and materials, how long will it take her to handle them by herself?
However, when NZ75 went to the workshop to find some unemployed Rippers, she found that there was no idle Ripper around the workshop, or there was no Sangvis Ferri doll. Even if there was, there was only a group of Sangvis Ferri dolls waiting for repair near the workshop door...
"That? Scarecrow, where are the Rippers?"
The original Rippers on the spacecraft were not injured, and they had long changed out of the clothes they wore when they came from Sangvis Ferri, so they could be recognized at a glance.
But along the way, let alone the Rippers, she didn't see even a Prowler...
"Huh?" x2
The two busy Scarecrows in the workshop heard NZ75's voice, turned their heads and looked at her at the same time, and then said in unison, "They were called away by Renault and were going to dismantle the remaining Jupiter cannons of Sangvis Ferri."
"Uh..."
NZ75 remembered that Renault had just accepted a commission, and it was all because of Nagant Revolver and the others!
She was so angry that she started to forget things!
Just as NZ75 was thinking about where to find help, the spacecraft had already landed next to the ruins of the Sangvis Ferri artillery platform under the control of wz.29. There were originally more than 20 Jupiter cannons in the artillery platform, but now only three Jupiter cannons were left intact.
It doesn't matter if you dismantle one or two. Anyway, there are only three left, so just dismantle them all together. If Persica doesn't want them, he can just take them over for modification.
Chapter 82: Not Found Yet
"M1897, don't bother sorting out these parts. Just throw them to those troublemakers later," Renault said, holding M1897's head and looking at this restless little guy helplessly.
M1897 has been so diligent since she came to the ship that even the Ripper in charge of sanitation at home is ashamed.
Whenever she sees a stain, she immediately goes to clean it up. She is either cleaning here or sorting out the sundries there. She has never been idle for a day.
Is it fortunate that Alchemist relies on the Sangvis "momentum"? Or something else? M1897 was stopped outside the farm; otherwise, she would probably work in endless cleaning until the end of the world...
Just like now, Nagant Revolver and the others picked up a lot of scrap parts and piled them in the cargo hold without caring about them. After being discovered by M1897, she moved them to the warehouse little by little, like ants moving a piece of sugar.
"Huh? But..." Hearing Renault's words, M1897 waved her arms impatiently.
Looking at so many stained parts placed here, she always felt uncomfortable if she didn't sort these things out and clean the floor of the cargo hold!
"Okay, listen, these are the things that Nagant Revolver and her friends brought back. If you help clean them up, they will put them here for you to clean up next time. Go to the kitchen to eat something and take a rest."
Holding down the helpless M1897, Renault forcibly pushed this guy into the elevator. NZ75, who ran over to find someone to help, happened to meet the two of them.
Seeing Renault, NZ75 couldn't help shrinking her neck. She had just been lectured by Renault, so she was still a little weak.
"Are you here to ask the Rippers for help again?" Seeing NZ75 shrinking her neck and trying to walk out of the elevator, Renault immediately guessed what this guy wanted to do and immediately pressed her head and pushed her back into the elevator.
"Don't think about it. Let Nagant Revolver and the others do all the sorting. Also, remember to notify them to come and sort out the cargo hold after the warehouse is sorted out. The floor is now full of parts they picked up!"
"Huh? Huh!" NZ75, who was pushed back into the elevator by Renault, heard this, and her face suddenly became bitter.
She felt like she wanted to cry but had no tears. She shouldn't have fooled around with Nagant Revolver and the others!
Now it's bad... so many parts... if you want to sort them all out... it will probably take a long time.
She knew exactly how many parts were brought back. They were piled up like a mountain in the cargo hold of the spacecraft. It was definitely not an easy job to disassemble and sort all the parts.
Especially for reckless people like Nagant Revolver...
Looking at the pitiful face of NZ75 beside her, M1897 felt a little helpless. She wanted to comfort her, but she didn't know where to start. After all, she couldn't guess why she had such an expression.
"Ah, I'm fine. M1897, you must have gone to the cargo hold to clean up again?"
Then she was pushed back by the commander. Apart from this reason, NZ75 couldn't think of any other reason for M1897 to be pushed out by Renault.
After all, M1897 was the backbone of the health department on the spacecraft. Even Scarecrow had to admit defeat to her hard work. NZ75 couldn't help but feel ashamed when she thought of this. They had moved the things back, and now they needed M1897's help to sort them out. It was really embarrassing...
"Eh? Well, I just can't take a break..." M1897 poked her finger a little embarrassedly.
"Hey, what's there to be embarrassed about? The commander must have asked you to take a rest, right? CF05 must have been preparing lunch. Do you want to join us?"
"CF05? Ah! She's not cooking hot pot in the control room of the vertical farm again! That would cause water to accumulate inside the equipment!" Upon hearing this, M1897 immediately raised her eyebrows and shouted at NZ75 with her eyes glaring.
"No! No! It must be in the restaurant!" NZ75 wiped her sweat and said uncertainly, while raising ber hand to push M1897 towards the restaurant, and at the same time sent a message to CF05 through the doll communication network.
Move the position quickly! Otherwise, M1897 will drag her to clean up the control room of the vertical farm again!
...
On Renault's side, the Rippers who were called over have already started to dismantle the Jupiter cannon.
Because they have dismantled it once before, these Rippers are familiar with it. In addition, there is no shortage of various tools on the ship. The dismantling work went very smoothly. It only took ten minutes to dismantle the main body of one of the Jupiter cannons.
At this speed, it will take at most an hour to dismantle it. After moving everything to the cargo hold of the spacecraft, the only thing left is transportation.
Watching the Rippers busy here, Renault also caught a glimpse of movement in the Sangvis Ferri Base. It seems that someone is struggling to rummage something over there.
Those figures look very familiar. They should be AK12 and the others.
As for what they are looking for, it has nothing to do with Renault. Anyway, Angelia didn't call him later, obviously she didn't need help.
However, it must be said that the doll team under Angelia is quite capable. With only four dolls, they can completely wipe out the remaining military units.
If there is a chance, Renault still wants to trick these guys onto his ship, and now there is already a result, RPK16...
Oh, he forgot that there still a a picked up neural core in the workshop. After delivering the goods, he had to take the time to fish out the doll out of the neural core.
Three Jupiter cannons, even though Renault's spaceship cargo hold is very large, it is now full of these three behemoths, plus the materials piled together like industrial waste. Renault's spaceship is fully loaded for the first time.
However, this situation will not last long. Once one of the Jupiter cannons is unloaded, at least a quarter of the space in the cargo hold will be freed up, so the cargo hold will not appear very crowded.
"Huh, Renault is really free and easy. He can dismantle the Jupiter cannon whenever he wants. When will Angie become so rich?"
"Impossible, don't even think about it. Her boss will definitely not continue to give her additional funding." AK12 poured cold water on her while looking through the equipment in the ruins, trying to find a good one to copy data.
"Yes, yes, who would have thought that Angie's pockets are cleaner than my face now." RPK16 stated the facts without any fear, and after hearing this, even AK15, who was as indifferent as her, had to pull the corners of her mouth and reveal an expression that could be considered a smile.
Chapter 83: You're Really Wishful
Seeing the message on the tablet, Helian raised her head and said to Persica, who was lazily curled up on the sofa next to her, "Renault and the others have arrived. You should take people to pick up the goods."
"Ah?" Persica sat up straight after hearing this and looked at the clock hanging in the office.
It seemed that just over an hour had passed since she called Renault, less than an hour and a half... They're here already? It takes more time than that to travel, right?
"Are you kidding me?" Persica didn't believe it at all. She thought Helian was fooling her and wanted to drive her out of the office.
"Believe it or not." Helian rolled her eyes.
Anyway, Renault's call would soon reach Persica's mobile phone. She would have no choice but to believe it. If it took too long and Renault got impatient, he might just throw the Jupiter Cannon on the open space at the airport and walk away.
She didn't have time to help Persica deal with these things now. Renault had to buy a lot of materials, which needed to be delivered through IOP channels. She was busy allocating goods from Griffin's warehouse.
Renault had already paid, so the shortage in the warehouse would be replenished from IOP later.
As for Griffin's regulations? Helian had already thrown them aside. Anyway, this kind of logistics material mobilization was within her job scope, and a 'little mistake' in the order was not important at all.
As a ringtone filled with meows rang, Persica answered the phone in shock, and before she could speak, Renault's voice had already rung out.
"I'm here, at Griffin's airport. Find someone to take the stuff away. I need to make room for the supplies."
Listening to the now-busy tone in the receiver, Persica glared at her phone, and then looked back at Helian, who was working with her head down. Finally, she came to her senses.
What Helian said earlier was not a joke!
...
When Persica appeared at Griffin's airport, Renault was already getting impatient.
As for why he was impatient, it was certainly not because he had waited a bit longer. After all, he came here to deliver goods to Persica and also to pick up his goods.
Originally, Helian was supposed to deliver all the supplies he needed to the Global Everything Airport next to Griffin's headquarters. Now, however, they had arrived at Griffin's airport. Helian had just discussed with Renault and decided to load and unload the goods directly from Griffin's airport. This way, she didn't have to find someone to deliver the goods from the warehouse to the Global Everything Airport.
So Renault had to wait for a while at the airport. The reason for his impatience was naturally because of the people at the airport who were staring at the spaceship with ulterior motives and ill intentions. The spaceship had just landed and was already being eyed by Griffin's ground staff.
Renault just couldn't help but want to drive these guys away, so his expression was a bit impatient.
As for Persica, although Helian had asked her to find someone to transport the goods, it was obviously just a rant.
Where could Persica find someone herself?
Most of the manpower and dolls were in Griffin's hands. Even if Persica found someone, she would have to ask Helian for help in the end.
"If you don't come soon, I will have wz.29 drive the spaceship away directly." Seeing Persica and Helian arrive in a jeep, Renault jumped down from the cargo door and waved his hand back, signaling the Ripper in the cargo hold to open the cargo door.
"Well, we're here, the transport team will be here soon." Hearing what Renault said, Persica jumped out of the car and rushed over in a hurry. Her ill-fitting shoes almost threw her off.
Seeing Persica's anxious look, staring at the direction of the cargo door as soon as she arrived, Renault reached out, pulled her up, and put her aside.
The extension board would be released in a while, and if she stood there like an idiot, she might be smashed into a pancake.
Even though Renault lifted her up and put her aside, Persica's eyes did not leave the direction of the cargo door. Shs stared at the cargo door until she saw the huge Jupiter cannon. Then sne suddenly became active, turning left and right as if she had some new ideas.
As for the reason...
"This? Renault, these seem to be three Jupiter cannons, right? Didn't Persica only want one?" Facing the door of the cargo hold, where there were three huge Jupiter cannons, Helian asked curiously.
If Griffin helped transport one Jupiter cannon, she could use still use tbe excuse that Persica needed to study it, but if there were three Jupiter cannons, then someone would inevitably doubt Griffin's true intentions.
"Yes, just one. I didn't ask her to move the other two." Renault raised his eyebrows and dismantled the remaining two intact Jupiter cannons. Although he went with the flow, he didn't mean to hand over the two Jupiter cannons directly to Persica as goods.
Unless Persica can offer a high enough price, he was going to keep the other two Jupiter cannons for modification. The Force Shield shield generators on the military armored train showed Renault the shortcomings of the two Jupiter cannons on the spaceship; the Force Shields, especially those with sufficient energy and power, were almost invincible against them.
Therefore, he needed a weapon that could effectively penetrate the Force Shield. The barrel of the Jupiter cannon was relatively solid and perfect for transformation. After all, there were no new artillery pieces of such a large size anywhere else.
"Eh? Aren't they all for me?" Persica, who was rubbing her hands excitedly, heard Renault say the other two Jupiter cannons were not for her, and her face fell immediately.
"Stop daydreaming. If you want to live and study this thing, you have to think realistically. Hurry up and pick one. After moving it down, I'll have space to load other goods." Renault said unhappily.
His spaceship had just landed at Griffin's airport, and a large group of people were already staring at it. Regardless of their identities, after seeing those Jupiter cannons, many people had already cast malicious eyes at Persica.
If it was just one Jupiter cannon, it would be fine. If Persica moved all three, those guys might not be able to resist attacking her.
Hearing Renault's words, Helian looked at his gestures pointing around and immediately looked around with a dark expression, clearly understanding what Renault meant.
Chapter 84: Did I just...?
"Hey! What a fresh change! Are all these Rippers from your family? They seem to have preliminary intelligence, which is completely different from the Rippers of Sangvis Ferri. How did they do it?"
Grabbing the arm of a Ripper, Persica asked Renault with shining eyes. While asking, he did not forget to circle around the Ripper in front of him, causing her to push her head back in resistance, trying to push this weird person with ears away from her.
"Removing the behavioral pattern restrictions of the base protocol agreement naturally will make them look like this. Also, don't make a fuss here; we are still working." Rescuing the Ripper from Persica's clutches, Renault carried this guy and stepped aside so the Griffin dolls could push out the disassembled parts of the Jupiter cannon.
Griffin Airport has a relatively complete range of tools, and the work of transporting the Jupiter cannon went smoothly, but compared with the Rippers in Renault's family, it was a bit inferior. It took half an hour to move the Jupiter cannon from the spaceship, and there were still some scattered parts left.
However, this was also related to Griffin's dolls being too cautious, fearing that the goods would be bumped or damaged during transportation.
In fact, the Jupiter cannon was very sturdy, and ordinary bumps and collisions couldn't affect its internal parts.
"Here, take this—the aiming system of the Jupiter cannon. Everything is complete. Go back to your own territory to play; I still need to load goods here."
After the Jupiter cannon selected by Persica was moved off the spaceship, the supplies mobilized by Helian were also delivered to the airport—three full trucks.
The empty space in the cargo hold of the spaceship was just enough to accommodate a truck, making it convenient for the dolls to transfer these goods to the cargo elevator. There wasn't much to say about transporting the goods. Both the dolls and the Rippers at home were already familiar with it.
However, there was still a problem: there was a person hidden in each of the three trucks. One of the three reporters who tried to get on the spacecraft to take pictures even locked himself in the supply box.
If the life detector on the doll hadn't discovered this guy, he might have been sent directly to the warehouse and locked up.
Seeing this, Helian's face was as black as coal, and Renault shook his head helplessly. This security situation was not even as good as Global Everything Services.
Looking at the three reporters who were dragged away by the staff, Helian scratched her head in annoyance and wanted to smash the tablet in her hand directly to the ground.
"If I had known this, I might as well replace all the security positions here with T-Dolls!"
Three reporters were able to sneak into the truck compartment, so it was obvious that someone had created an opening during the transportation of the goods.
Either the staff at the airport or the people at the Griffin warehouse were involved.
Besides, she just noticed the guys around staring at the spaceship. Many of them had suspicious identities. In addition, the malicious looks directed at Persica made it unclear what camp or organization these guys belonged to.
She had reported this kind of thing to her boss several times, but unfortunately, even her boss was helpless because those who were replaced would soon be replaced by new people.
Especially in logistics, many things could not be handed over to dolls. After all, these decisions were made when Griffin started to use dolls. If they were changed now, many people who were still working would suffer.
Just thinking about it made Helian feel her temples throbbing and her head aching.
"Well, everything is ready," Renault said to Helian, looking at the list of supplies handed over by M1 Garand.
Helian came back to her senses after hearing Renault's words and rubbed her brow. "It's good that nothing is missing. I will..."
"Put the extra money with you first. If there is a chance, try to contact IOP." Renault calculated the remaining funds. There should be a large portion left. The amount of money to buy these materials only accounts for a small part of it.
"Uh, okay. Why do I always feel like I have become your secretary? I am obviously the agent of Griffin and Kryuger."
After responding subconsciously, Helian took off her monocle and wiped it helplessly. She always felt as if she was working for nothing.
"Don't worry about such trivial matters."
"Wait, don't rush to leave. IOP—I don't need to contact them, right? After all, they are open for business. There will be no problem with normal business behavior." Seeing Renault about to turn around and board the ship, Helian reached out and grabbed Renault's sleeve.
"You said it was normal business behavior. How come the things I want to purchase are not what a normal security contractor needs?" Renault curled his lips helplessly.
Those were all semi-finished materials for making ammunition. Although they were only processed initially, they could already be classified as dangerous goods.
Ordinary security contractors would never be able to buy those things from IOP. Only Griffin, relying on the face of its boss Kryuger and his relationship with the military and other forces, could get some with this.
However, Renault had already played this trick through Griffin at the beginning. It might be really difficult the second time...
After all, no one is a sucker, not to mention that Renault is now registered with the military. If he doesn't want to be targeted by the military, IOP will definitely not open the door for convenience the second time.
"This... I can't do anything about it. Wait, have you tried Svarog Heavy Industries? If it's them, they won't refuse."
"Then ask for me. If you can, buy from them."
"Well, if not, you'll probably have to go to a mining company to buy the raw materials and process them yourself."
Helian didn't doubt whether Renault had the technology. Since he had built the spaceship, how could he not make his own ammunition?
"Okay, I'll leave this to you."
After Renault finished speaking, he jumped onto the cargo door of the spaceship, signaled the Rippers to close the door, and waved to Helian.
Helian, who also waved, suddenly came to her senses after the spaceship gradually took off and completely disappeared from the sky above Griffin Airport.
She looked at her right hand in a daze. "I just...? It seems like I grabbed that guy's sleeve right?"
Chapter 85: Wait*
"I'm here! I'm here! Now that I have the materials, can I repair my leg?" Architect, who had seen a group of Rippers moving large quantities of materials into the warehouse, rushed directly from the end of the corridor to the workshop door and asked Renault, who had just walked in.
"Repair? Sorry, there is no new body for you at the moment. All the materials have been recycled by Nagant Revolver and others. If you really can't stand the wheels, just replace your feet yourself. There are still many scattered parts of Sangvis Ferri and military dolls."
Well, it's the pile of parts in the cargo hold that looks like a garbage dump. If you pick carefully, you can always find a suitable leg.
Of course, in terms of appearance, there is no way to guarantee performance. After all, the manufacturing process of the Sangvis Ferri Elite doll body is very different from that of ordinary Sangvis Ferri dolls and even military dolls. It is impossible to find 80% similar parts.
"Huh? Wait, wait! Didn't you buy the doll body materials this time? There are so many things; there should be at least a little..." Architect shouted in surprise, then watched Scarecrow start to add bionic skin repair materials to the repair chamber with ease.
Obviously, most of the boxes moved here were these things, and there were no items related to doll bodies. Maybe there were, but they were definitely not placed in the workshop.
"Ahhh! How could this happen!?"
Looking at the frantic Architect, Scarecrow put down the raw material tank in her hand, rolled her eyes at the guy, and said, "All the bodies here in Renault are remade. Although some modules inside the body are still using the original templates, they are completely different from our original bodies."
"Well, then make one quickly, oh, just make a few then. Can't I change my body even if I'm like this?"
This degree of damage is already a big deal! How can a serious Sangvis Ferri doll run around on a leg with wheels?
"You are so rude. I am waiting here too. I advise you to be nicer, or you will be stuffed into the rice cooker."
Just as Architect finished her anxious words, a weak voice came from her feet. A Dinergate painted all over was sitting on the ground, staring at Architect with its only camera.
Although the Dinergate's camera did not project the expression of the owner of the words, Architect could clearly feel that the Dinergate was staring at her! And its eyes were fierce!
It's strange. When did the Sangvis Ferri Dinergates also install an emotional expression system? Wasn't it to save space when the Dinergates were first made to prevent the detection module from being dismantled?
Wait? When did Dinergates start talking?
Thinking of this, Architect immediately reached out curiously and tried to grab the talking Dinergate under her feet to take a closer look.
What did this guy mean by putting it into the rice cooker? Seal it?
"Hey, hey, just talk honestly. Why are you using your hands?"
Even though she was in the body of a Dinergate, RPK16 did not lose her agility as a military doll.
Architect just raised her hand, and RPK16 rushed out directly from the spot.
Seeing this, Architect immediately stared and subconsciously wanted to rush forward and grab this disobedient Dinergate to her hand.
Unfortunately, before she could move, Renault had already pinched his head. "Don't fight here, and you too. The materials for the new body have arrived. You decide whether to wait for a while and replace it with a new body, or use the same model others are using now."
"New body? What's the difference between it and the one used by Scarecrow and others now?" Hearing Renault's words, RPK16 asked in surprise. She didn't seem to see Renault tinkering with anything related to a new body recently.
"The most intuitive difference is that it is lighter. The other differences will be known after it is made."
"What? Isn't this just a test product?" RPK16 was a little annoyed when she heard it, but after thinking about it, she agreed. "Okay, then I will wait patiently for a while."
Architect who heard the conversation between Renault and RPK16 also roughly understood at this time that the white Dinergate in front of her must contain a doll's neural cloud...
In addition, the meaning of the Dinergate's words just now, "put into the rice cooker," is naturally self-evident. It is clear that she will be dismantled and the neural core will be stuffed into the rice cooker...
Why do you have such a strange hobby! What do you think of the doll's neural core!?
Architect thought and subconsciously moved back, as if she was a little afraid that Renault would do something to her now.
When she moved to the door, she ran away directly!
Seeing Architect running away, Renault didn't care.
What's the use of being afraid? Anyway, you have to go through this.
...
"Don't be busy researching, wake up! This thing can't be left here for you to study openly!" Seeing Persica about to enter the warehouse where the Jupiter cannon was stored, Helian reached out and grabbed her collar, pulling her back from the door.
Although the military didn't care about the Jupiter cannon, and Statesec wouldn't bother Kryuger because of this little thing, the storage location of this thing still needed to be changed.
"Huh? What's the matter! 16Lab doesn't have a license!" Hearing Helian's words, Persica shouted indignantly.
Although the Jupiter cannon is a little bigger, 16Lab also has a special license, and there will definitely be no problem studying a Jupiter cannon.
"16Lab does have a license, but Griffin doesn't, so this thing must be transported to your laboratory." Helian said this so Griffin's side could be considered legitimate.
Otherwise, there will always be some petty guys who will take the initiative to jump out and cause trouble for Griffin.
"Tsk! What a hassle! In this case, won't we have to continue disassembling it?" Persica, who was originally thinking about assembling it and trying it out, said with dissatisfaction.
"It only takes a few more hours. Can't you wait for a short time?"
"Okay, then I'll wait for a while, but I don't have any extra space to store this thing. In the end, Griffin will help arrange a new test site." Persica said weakly.
Griffin arranging a place, what is the difference between this and directly storing it in Griffin's warehouse?
It's a pity that someone still recognizes this...
Just when Persica rolled her eyes speechlessly, the communicator she was carrying suddenly rang, and the contact person... "It's your boss."
Hearing this, Helian immediately raised her head in surprise and watched Persica connect to her boss's communication in a lazy manner.
Chapter 86: Did we get shot?
M1 Garand held a list of goods in her hand, repeatedly checking it as she walked. Upon arriving at the workshop, she looked up and spoke to Renault, who was repairing the data of a neural core.
"Commander, the goods this time have been counted and put into the warehouse. They match the list of materials sent by Agent Helian, but..."
"But what?"
"There seems to be a... um, corpse in one of the boxes?" M1 Garand scratched her head, looking a little at a loss. It was the first time she had encountered a corpse in a material box. This was not a coffin...
Can a goods box still be used after this?
However, the guy in the box, who was probably a corpse, looked a little strange. The upper body was still a normal human, but the lower body had been replaced with something like a mechanical prosthesis.
So she was a little unsure whether the box actually contained a corpse.
"A corpse?" Renault was surprised to hear this from M1 Garand. It wasn’t that he thought it was impossible, but because the boxes of supplies M1 mentioned were all moved from Griffin's airport.
This was really strange. After all, the supplies Helian gave him were all hastily transferred after receiving his call. Previously, these supplies should have been kept in Griffin's warehouse as spare reserves.
"What about the box? Thrown away?" Renault scratched his chin. He didn't pay much attention when loading the goods before. Helian knew better than to cause trouble for him over such a small matter, let alone do anything suspicious with these supplies.
Therefore, the contents of the box were probably placed there by people from other forces. It wasn't clear what the specific purpose was. He had to see it to know.
"No, it's outside. It was initially planned to be thrown directly off-ship." M1 Garand pointed outside. At that moment, two Rippers just pushed an ordinary-looking supply box to the workshop door with a flatbed truck.
The two Scarecrows and the soldier ant RPK16 in the workshop all came over, curiously looking at this box that was no different from other supply boxes. The life detectors on them did not detect any living creatures. The contents should indeed be a "corpse" as M1 Garand said...
After opening the lid of the supply box, a girl-like figure curled up inside suddenly appeared in everyone's view.
"This looks a bit like a doll fresh out of the box."
As Renault opened the supply box, several more dolls came over. Nagant Revolver, carrying a lot of scrapped parts in her hands, stretched her head and commented.
"This doesn't look like a doll at all, and she looks like she's still breathing, right? It doesn't look like a corpse at all,"
M1919A4 said, holding a lot of military doll scrap parts like Nagant Revolver.
They were sorting out the pile of parts in the cargo hold. Most of the parts were picked up by them, so the task of sorting them out naturally fell to them. After all, Renault had expressly forbidden the Rippers from helping.
Hearing what M1919A4 said, M1 Garand sighed. "The problem lies here. This guy doesn't look human, but she still has weak breathing. Yet, her body temperature is almost the same as the room temperature in the spacecraft."
Otherwise, she wouldn't have thought the figure in front of her was a "corpse."
For a normal person, if the body temperature is always maintained at around 20 degrees, they would likely be dead.
M1 Garand was worrying about how to handle the figure in the box when Renault suddenly reached out, pulled up the figure who was "sleeping" in the supply box, and slapped the other person's face twice.
"Huh..." Seeing Renault's direct action, M1 Garand was stunned. Several dolls and even the two Scarecrows beside her had similar expressions. They were all shocked by Renault's direct approach.
Even if the figure in front of him was of unknown origin, he didn't need to be so rude, right?
M1 Garand thought this, without any awareness that she had been planning to throw the person out of the ship from a height of tens of thousands of meters.
"Wake up, stop pretending."
Renault’s words surprised the dolls gathered around him.
Stop pretending? Didn't that mean the figure lying in the supply box was awake the whole time!?
The moment the supply box was opened, Renault realized that the figure inside was not unconscious. When the lid was opened and light fell on the figure’s face, the figure's eyelids trembled slightly.
Additionally, the special heat-insulating coating on the figure's body and the life support device under her body all indicated that this was definitely not a corpse.
After being slapped by Renault, the figure pretending to be a corpse couldn't hold on any longer and opened her eyes.
M1 Garand raised her eyebrows, throwing away all the surprise in her heart. She squinted her eyes at the girl in a black robe in front of her.
"It feels a bit like those... those bone stick soldiers I saw in that town before?" M500, who arrived later, scratched her head, recalling the soldiers in white armor or exoskeletons she and HK416 had encountered earlier.
"It's true that she is a bit like them, but she doesn't seem to have turned into a simple stick figure." Super-Shorty also nodded in agreement. She could feel that the girl in front of her had a very similar aura to those she met earlier.
However, the soldiers she met then were already tattered inside their exoskeleton equipment, but the girl in front of her looked fresh and lively, at least if you didn't look at the lower half of her body.
"Where are you from? Who put you in the Griffin warehouse?"
Renault didn't have the patience to deal nicely and friendly with this unknown girl who had sneaked on board.
The moment she woke up, she began sending interference signals in all directions, trying to block the connection between the spacecraft and the outside world.
Little did she know that the spacecraft itself had a certain degree of interference. If Renault didn't allow it, RFB wouldn't be able to play games online.
This girl used a certain interference module she carried. For Renault and his dolls who had modified bodies, this interference was just a minor annoyance and had no effect at all.
But some dolls were affected, like the jumpy Architect, who couldn't rest all day long. As a result, when she saw the excitement here, she stood there like a fool in a daze..
Oh, Architect was always a fool so there's that.
Chapter 87 Physical Examination
Pah!
Before M1 Garand and her friends, who had just noticed something was wrong, could take action, Renault had already raised his hand and slapped the guy on the forehead.
"Be honest."
The sudden explosion and slapping sound made M1 Garand and his men shudder at the same time.
The girl standing in front of Renault staggered and fell to the ground by the strong slap, and the source of interference that was constantly disrupting the dolls... or Architect... disappeared instantly.
The girl lying on the ground squeezed her eyes in pain, and large tears welled up in her eye sockets.
Seeing this, Scarecrow No. 1 pulled the corners of her mouth stiffly.
Renault could hang up Executioner with one hand and beat her. Although she didn't know why his human strength was stronger than the doll body he had made himself, that kind of strength was definitely not fake.
Being slapped on the forehead by a guy with that hand... It can only be said that the head of the girl who sneaked in was not turned into a pulp on the spot purely because Renault showed mercy.
"Ouch! Why is my head dizzy? What happened just now?"
After getting rid of the sudden interference, Architect slowly approached, looking around and asking the dolls around her.
"You were disturbed by this figure's interference module jjust now. You stood there like a fool. I guess you've been photographed by MDR as a black histoey material." C96 pointed at the girl lying on the ground and said to Architect with a smile.
"Ah? Ha!? MDR?" Upon hearing this, Architect was startled and turned her head to look for MDR.
Unfortunately, before she turned back, the drone controlled by MDR had already slipped away from the corner.
"Damn it! MDR! Stop right there!" Although she didn't see MDR's figure, Architect's intuition told her that MDR must have been nearby just now!
The way she was affected by the interference must have been photographed by MDR!
Although she had only been here for a short time, Architect had obviously understood the serious consequences of being photographed by MDR.
Are you kidding? It will be put in the album as a black history! It may even be made into a video in the future! How can she allow to humiliate herself?
MDR! You are dead!
The roaring Architect didn't care about watching the fun and rushed out, roaring directly.
The surrounding dolls were already accustomed to Architect's reaction. This was not a new thing. If no one roared and chased MDR once or twice a day, they would feel a little strange.
Ignoring Architect who ran away, a group of dolls retracted their eyes and put them on the girl in front of them who was in so much pain that she hadn't managed to stand up yet.
Tsk tsk, it hurts just to look at it, but their commander really didn't have any thoughts of sympathy for the girl. He actually took the other party out of the supply box so roughly and stretched out his hand to pull out the life support device installed under the box.
"It's not an IOP product."
After looking at the device, there was no obvious label on it, and the technology used was different from the technology IOP always used. It was obviously from a different manufacturing company.
He handed the device to Scarecrow No. 2 beside him, and Renault pulled the girl up again, lifting her forehead and bangs on both sides to look at her.
At first glance, this girl still has a lot of human parts, but whether it is the head, neck, or even shoulders, they have been transformed. A careful inspection will reveal that the degree of mechanical transformation of this girl is at least more than 60%.
No wonder M1 Garand was so uncertain when she said that this girl was a corpse just now.
The girl, who was pinched by Renault's forehead and looked left and right, seemed to have a little temper. She shook her head violently and tried to break free from Renault's hands, but there was no expression on her face. Only some anger and grievance could be seen in her eyes.
"Tell me, where are you from? What do you want to do by sneaking into Griffin?"
This girl had a certain relationship with the modified soldiers who were only bones and sticks that he had met before. Renault was a little curious about what this girl wanted to do by sneaking into Griffin.
After all, Griffin, a security contractor, is a well-known sieve in terms of employment review.
All forces of many factions can put people inside of it, but Griffin's boss doesn't mind it at all.
He was a little curious. After all, if you want to know the internal information of Griffin, you can just put your own people in through the normal application channels in G&K. There is no need to let such an extraordinary modified person pretend to be dead and sneak in their warehouses.
Listening to Renault's words, the girl blinked her eyes, obviously understanding what Renault meant, but unfortunately, this girl didn't intend to answer Renault's questions at all, she just stared at Renault, as if she wanted to engrave his appearance in her heart.
"It looks like she won't say anything." Scarecrow No. 1 raised her eyebrows. The girl in front of her had no expression on her face, and she didn't even scream when Renault slapped her on the forehead just now.
Now facing Renault's questioning, it is obviously unlikely that she will respond.
"Well, it's really boring." Nagant Revolver shrugged her shoulders and walked away with the junk parts in her hand without interest.
Like that, Nagant Revolver, C96 and M500 also left. After all, their work was not finished yet. There were still a lot of parts waiting to be processed in the cargo hold. If they didn't hurry up, they would not be able to finish the work and they wont make it to dinner.
"Leave this girl here with me first." After several dolls left, Renault turned his head and said to M1 Garand.
"Okay." M1 Garand immediately responded happily. She was not good at interrogation at all. Instead of staying here to find a way to make this girl speak, it would be better to go back and do her own thing, even if it was to go to the kitchen to rest for a while.
Seeing the other dolls leave one by one, the Dinergate RPK16 immediately said to Renault with some concern, "Hey, Renault, this girl has the ability of electronic interference, and she may be able to forcibly invade a doll's mind. Isn't it a bit too dangerous to keep her on the ship directly?"
RPK16's worry is not unreasonable. After all, the interference just released by this girl had even affected the Sangvis Ferri elite doll Architect. If it were replaced by an ordinary doll, or a Dinergate like her current appearance, a crash would be likely.
"It's okay, I'll just check it a little and eliminate the danger. There's nothing to be afraid of."
Since there are traces of modification on the girl's body, then the various mechanical equipment on this girl must have corresponding control methods.
As long as the right method is found, it is still easy to make this girl who is staring at you obedient.
"Come here, let me check your body."
Chapter 88 Goods are Unsold, Help...
"She's quite strong. If you just remove her arms and legs, she should be obedient." Looking at the silent girl lying on the workbench, struggling from time to time, Scarecrow No. 1 raised her eyebrows and threatened directly.
Obviously, this silent girl, although she didn't speak, could still understand what people said. As soon as Scarecrow No. 1 said this, she immediately became obedient and allowed Scarecrow No. 2 to connect the remaining data cables to the data interfaces on her head.
The data interface is different from the commonly used interface, which is the main reason why Renault delayed putting this girl on the workbench for so long.
"The structural strength of these prosthetics on her body has exceeded those of military dolls, right? When did such an unknown organization emerge again?"
"Let's just take a look and you'll know. Anyway, it's impossible for them to jump out of a creek or hellhole," Renault said, and directly started the detection program. The girl lying on the workbench frowned when the program started, but it was only for a moment, and then she lay on the workbench with blank eyes, as if she was dazed.
"Commander, this girl seems to be a little bit off."
"It's okay, it's just the emergency mechanism of the human body; it will be fine in a while."
Renault couldn't tell what the girl in front of him had been transformed into.
She was not a human, but she possessed a large and wide mental space.
But her body that looked like a dead thing, and the organs on her body that had to be driven by artificial energy, also proved that this girl was no longer a pure human.
Seeing that the girl on the workbench was motionless, the two Scarecrows stopped guarding and came behind Renault, looking at the computer screen in front of Renault with some curiosity. As the detection program ran, all the information and control systems in the girl's body appeared on the screen.
Looking at the information on the screen, Scarecrow No. 1 tilted her head, "Paradeus? this organization again. It seems that the modified soldiers they created last time were the ones we encountered?"
"Ah, if nothing unexpected happens, it should be similar to the technology of the modified soldiers, but it should be more advanced than those modified soldiers."
The bodies of those modified soldiers are basically scrapped, dead ELID infected, and they were only moving due to the equipment they wore that constructs their body.
But this girl in front of him is different. Although her limbs are also prosthetics and she needs a built-in energy source to move, the upper body and head alone retain a large area of normal human appearance. The technical content is obviously not of the same level.
Scarecrow No. 2 noticed the code name on the data and the long series of serial numbers behind the code name, "Nyto? Is this her name? The serial numbers behind it... are they the serial numbers of test subjects?"
"It's probably that, but Nyto should be just a code name." As he spoke, Renault personally checked the situation in Nyto's mental space. this girl's mental space used technology similar to that of a doll's mind. There were also some base root protocols that restricted Nyto's action mode, but these restrictions were not as rigid as those of a doll.
If these Nytos wanted to, they could still break through the restrictions of these root protocols.
In addition to these root protocols, what controlled these Nytos should mostly be the memories implanted later, which was probably similar to brainwashing. The word that appeared most frequently was "Father."
"By the way, Renault, is there anything we need to prepare in advance for the new body?"
Seeing Renault's sudden relaxation, Scarecrow No. 1 suddenly changed the subject and asked. It's clear from Renault's actions that Paradeus's technology shouldn't be difficult for Renault, and this girl named Nyto shouldn't pose any threat to them.
"Hmm? Not yet, the materials for the new body haven't started to be cultivated yet."
"Cultivated? Shouldn't it be synthesized or smelted?"
"Well, I plan to use some different materials this time. It's too troublesome to spend money to buy bio-synthethic skin repair materials every now and then. It's too expensive."
Because the materials purchased by Renault are all high quality, only this kind of material can support the dolls tactile module in the bionic system to the maximum power.
Although Griffin uses the same material, the dolls in Griffin's family are obviously not as noisy as the dolls on Renault's side. In addition, the power of G&K's doll body is not very strong, and the damage to the bionic skin will mostly only need to be repaired after the mission.
But in Renault's place, the huge power of the dolls alone will cause the bionic skin on their bodies to be damaged, and the repair frequency will increase by who knows how many times.
Different?
Hearing what Renault said, the two Scarecrows looked at each other, and they couldn't figure out what kind of materials needed to be cultivated.
"Don't worry now, you will know after it is made. By the way, remember to organize a warehouse on the third floor, so that equipment and other things can be placed there."
"Third floor... Commander, the warehouse over there is now full of cans, and our backlog of inventory has not been sold yet."
Although it was sold twice before and part of the inventory was cleared...
Both the vertical farm and the breeding farm's production have never stopped. Every day, a steady stream of finished cans of goods are stuffed into the warehouse. The speed at which they sell is completely unable to keep up with the speed at which CF05 and the others ability to make cans.
CF05 and the others can't stop, because both the crops in the vertical farm and the animals in the breeding farm are growing at a very bizarre speed. If they are left here, it would be a bit too wasteful.
"Uh... OK, I'll call and ask if thise are othis sales channels later."
Just relying on the words of the two old customers last time, so many things in the warehouse wasn't even consumed at all.
Besides, the buyer introduced by someone a while ago should still be from Paradeus. Now their relationship with Paradeus is not as bad as fire and water, but it is definitely not friendly. The other party may not consider buying things from him again.
Scratching his head with some headache, Renault took off the data cable from Nyto.
After deleting the base root protocol, this girl's original memory may be partially restored. Of course, whether it will work depends on the changes of Nyto.
If it is a doll, it is guaranteed to be 100%, but Nyto... it's not certain.
The memory in the other party's head is completely Schrodinger's memory. It may be restored in the next second, or it may be forgotten for a lifetime.
"Father!? Father!? Where are you!? Why can't I hear your voice!"
Chapter 89 It's Safe Here
"Did she went crazy?"
Nyto, who had originally been expressionless, instantly went berserk after Renault removed the data cables. Her facial expressions changed rapidly—anger, confusion, ferocity—making her appear insane.
After witnessing Nyto's hysterical performance, the two Scarecrows looked at Renault curiously, wondering what he had done to her.
"No, it's just that without the root protocol, she can't use the function that allowed her to communicate with other Nytos through the mental space. Also, the blocked part of her memory in her brain has been released. To put it bluntly, she probably can't accept reality." Renault explained.
"Okay, you two watch her. She doesn't have the ability to interfere now. Just make sure she doesn't smash things." Renault said this and walked towards the mind transfer device on the side.
After such a long time, the mental data inside the neural core brought by RPK16 had been transferred. It was time to ask if this guy wanted to stay here.
Of course, the answer would have to be yes.
The neural core is not given for free. Even if she doesn't want to stay, she has to work to pay off her debts for the time being. The small neural cores used by IOP are incomparable to the large number of neural cores here. Even at cost price, it is not something that any ordinary dolls can pay off in a short time.
If she works hard and goes out a few more times, she might be able to save up the money in a few months.
If it's Griffin's side... well, the salary of the dolls... it's better not to mention it.
Perhaps the slap Renault gave Nyto on her forehead was too painful. Just as he stood up and passed in front of her, Nyto, who had been in a state of anxiety, unexpectedly calmed down.
After looking at Renault, she averted her eyes and stared at the ground without moving. If you didn't know better, you might think she was counting the number of screws scattered on the ground.
The two Scarecrows were relieved when they saw this. As long as Nyto behaved well, they were afraid they might beat her to death if she got mad. This Nyto was a complete mortal except for her limbs, and she wasn't as strong as a human.
They couldn't understand how Renault had restrained her so well. He hurt her but didn't seriously injure her—his strength was controlled perfectly.
After Renault connected the neural core to the computer, the Dinergate RPK16 also jumped onto the desktop curiously and looked at the screen. However, RPK16 was somewhat confused after seeing this, because she did not recognize the doll figure that appeared on the screen...
Well, it was normal not to recognize her. After all, she couldn't remember all the dolls in Griffin one by one, and Angelia didn't have such detailed information. She knew some dolls with superior combat capabilities, but the doll in front of her, wearing a Griffin field staff uniform...
"Hello?" The doll spoke in a questioning tone and waved to the person who seemed to be lying outside the window in front of her. Before Renault responded, the doll tried to get in front of the screen and stretched out her hand to try to stick out of the window in front of her.
Unfortunately, the window was purely a mimicry in the mental space. In fact, except for a wall, she couldn't touch anything at all.
"Huh? What's going on? Where on earth am I?"
"Hmm? So slow? Your side is a mental space; you haven't realized your status yet, right?" RPK16 turned around and looked at Renault. The slowness of this doll really surprised her, but thinking about it, this doll seemed to be only responsible for driving the transport plane, which got blown off, so it didn't seem strange to have such a situation.
"Status? Eh? What? Where is my body?!" After being reminded by RPK16, the doll in the mental space suddenly looked down at her body.
Although it looked exactly the same as her own body, no matter how it moved, she only needed a thought, and there was no need to mobilize the modules in the body. She couldn't feel connected to the body's internal computing system.
This situation... seems to only happen when Griffin is doing routine inspections, right? And even during Griffin's routine checks, she could still sense the existence of her own body...
"Don't think about it, your body was burned in the crash. You can still stand in the mental space and talk thanks to this guy." RPK16 raised the Dinergate body and looked at Renault.
His skills really shocked her. When she saw Renault picking up the almost broken neural core, she thought it was scrap to be thrown away.
However, it was precisely because of Renault's skills that she, the former RPK16, could stand here in this form. How ordinary doll manufacturers and even the laboratories of the Security Bureau would treat discarded neural cores is clear without thinking—they must be taken for recycling and reuse.
As for the data in the neural core? It has been backed up long ago. Of course, they will not be lenient with neural cores that have no use value. Ah, it seems that the word "leniency" is not appropriate. After all, when throwing away a piece of bread, no one cares about the mold growing on the bread.
"Then... will I never be able to get out of here in this lifetime!" Upon hearing that her body was destroyed, the doll in the mental space immediately shouted to RPK16 in panic, not even caring about RPK16, the talking Dinergate.
"In this lifetime? That's not the case. Renault should let you out, right?" RPK16 was quite sure of this, but she was not sure when it would happen. She herself was still trapped in this Dinergate shell.
Even if there was a body, she would be the first one, okay? First come, first served, understand?
"Well, it's certain that they will be released, but not in the next few days. I don't have any extra bodies on hand. Of course, there are bodies made up of scraps from the other side, but the strength of that body is very poor. It is very likely to be..."
"Broken, yes, that's it, I know, I know!" RPK16 shook her body, looking very experienced as she spoke in indignation.
Obviously, as a user of the Dinergate shell, she had a deep understanding of this. Every day, she saw Dinergates being knocked away by those overweight dolls.
This is why she has been staying in Renault's workshop and not going out. After all, compared with other places, Renault's workshop is much safer.
Chapter 90: Be Careful Behind You
Watching RPK16 sitting in front of the screen, waving her chopstick-like legs and recounting her survival experience on Renault's ship with an air of authority, the doll in the mental space listened and nodded like a good student, almost taking out a small notebook to jot it down.
"Uh, that means I have to stay in this mental space for a while?" After RPK16's explanation, the doll roughly understood her current situation. After the initial panic, the memory of the previous transport plane crash came back to her.
"Well, that's right. Of course, if you feel uncomfortable staying in the mental space all the time, you can choose to use the shell of the Dinergate or the specially reinforced Prowler with an additional feature here," RPK16 said, while pushing the camera above the screen with her chopstick legs so that the rice cooker welded to the chassis of the Prowler appeared in the camera's view.
"Uh..."
What! Is there no other choice?! What is this?
I would rather stay here forever than be put into a rice cooker!
After seeing the Ranger shell, the doll forced a smile but roared internally.
"That... let's not talk about that. Speaking of which, since I have become like this now, the doll team I was responsible for transporting before, could it be that they also...?"
"Unfortunately, they haven't. Only you, the unlucky one, had your neural core pierced directly by the fragments. The guys on the transport plane all use military-grade bodies, and the armor plates are much stronger than your civilian body."
Looking at RPK16, who seemed like she could chat forever, Renault raised his hand and knocked on the shell of the Dinergate RPK16. "Okay, you stay here with her. I have to go to the cargo hold to see if those guys have cleaned up those junk parts."
After cleaning up the cargo hold, the two Jupiter cannons can be disassembled and modified. The large Force Shield used by the military really surprised Renault. Although the Force Shield is still a bit crude, its protective performance is indeed very good, and it is already somewhat similar to the energy shield on his spaceship.
This military action was not a formal operation. It was just one of the military's experimental departments using Sangvis Ferri as a test subject for the large-scale Force Shield.
However, since he had already obtained the test data of the Force Shield, he naturally had to make some weapons specifically against it.
Of course, the military must have also obtained the test data. Long before he started to interfere, the military's server must have received the experimental data. By then, it would probably not only be armored trains equipped with such Force Shields.
What surprised Renault was that he also found a very similar Force Shield generator on the Nyto just now.
Although the power was not as strong as the Force Shield on the armored train, it was enough to deal with ordinary weapon attacks, as well as fragments and impacts from some small-caliber artillery fire.
This was probably part of the reason why the force or organization behind Nyto dared to send Nyto alone to Griffin.
In addition to Nyto's own electronic jamming ability, even if Nyto's close-range combat ability is poor, this guy can definitely come and go freely among the Griffins, whose combat units are mostly dolls.
It may not be possible to cause substantial damage, but running away is definitely not a problem.
"Commander, what should we do with this guy?" Seeing that Renault was about to leave the workshop, the two Scarecrows immediately looked at him.
Although this Nyto was not making a fuss, we couldn't let her sit on the workbench in the workshop all the time, right?
"Well? It's okay, don't worry about her. Just don't forget to inform others of her situation and identity." Waving his hand casually, Renault walked out of the workshop.
It was not a big deal to have Nyto on the ship. After all, the jamming module and Force Shield on Nyto were all temporarily turned off by him.
In Nyto's current state, to be honest, she can't even beat the Ripper. In addition, this organization is called Paradeus. Although not all his family knows Paradeus, as long as there are one or two targeting her for some reason...
Well, anyway, I wish this guy good luck. I hope she won't be hit by a doll in the spaceship.
...
"It's a bit too much to ask me to go to the front line," Persica said, sitting in the transport plane and looking out the window with despair.
"After all, Persica, what you are studying is really not suitable for being placed in the city." Looking at Persica's unhappy face, M16 also said helplessly.
This guy actually wants to set up the Jupiter Cannon directly next to the Griffin headquarters. What a joke. Let alone the military, even Statesec would not agree to such an outrageous request.
"Hmph, Kryuger... Anyway, this mission..." Persica wanted to complain, but when ahe thought of herself sitting on Griffin's transport plane, she immediately held back the second half of the sentence.
However, when she said the second half of the sentence, she suddenly paused and looked at M4, who was sitting beside her and lost in thought. "Don't work too hard on the next mission. For that file, don't sacrifice yourself for the mission. Protecting yourself is also a very important task, uhhu..."
Persica yawned again as she spoke.
M16 heard the words and looked at M4. Ahe roughly understood what Persica meant. However, M4 and RO, who had just come to their senses, didn't understand it as quickly as M16. They looked at Persica with confused and puzzled eyes, not understanding what she meant by this.
Unfortunately, Persica put on her eye mask after she finished speaking, leaned back in her chair, and fell asleep instantly, snoring softly.
The two who didn't get an answer looked at M16 at the same time, hoping to get some clearer answers from her.
"Well, don't look at me. I just want you to be careful when you perform the mission, and there is still a long time before the mission starts. You can go ask the commander then," M16 shrugged and said.
"Well, okay, but speaking of it, Commander Gentiane seems to have been transferred to another base?"
"Well, probably. After all, any boss would want a capable employee to do more."
It has to be said that Gentiane's performance in G&K is very impressive.
Maybe because most of the missions are linked to the AR team, it is naturally more eye-catching than other commanders.
"Well, the noise is so loud... Can't you let me get some sleep..." Persica muttered to herself, covering her ears and lying down on an empty seat.
Maybe she heard what the M4 and the others said.
Chapter 91: The Wallet is Here
"Can you do it?"
"Of course! How could I not? I've been studying hard this time!"
Facing Nagant's question, G11 stated righteously that she had gone back to the simulator, found many scenes related to the maintenance of Goliath robots, and studied them repeatedly. It's absolutely foolproof!
"I don't believe it. You said the same thing last time, and you almost blew up the spaceship." M1919A4 crossed her arms and didn't believe a word of G11's promise.
Last time, she believed this guy's lies, then she was scolded by Renault for a long time. This time, she was unwilling to trust G11's self-proclaimed "absolutely reliable" technology.
"I say, if you have the time to argue, why don't you go find the commander to come over and take a look? If there is no problem, it won't be too late to install it." M870, after walking around the warehouse and finding nothing interesting, said to the quarreling kids.
"Well, I've just checked. The commander is busy dismantling the two Jupiter cannons. If you want him to come over, you'll have to wait for several hours..." NZ75 shook her head.
"Well, then wait a few hours. It's just a few hours. You can just go have a meal or do something else."
M870 shrugged and walked out of the warehouse. She just wanted to see what the robot made by Nagant Revolver looked like. Waiting a few more hours or minutes made no difference to her.
Now these parts are piled up in the warehouse, and it should only be a matter of time before they are assembled.
"Hmm, a few hours... NZ75, why aren't you in the kitchen or the vertical farm's warehouse at this time? Have you finished everything there?"
"Ah, no, but a lot of Sangvis Ferri T-dolls arrived yesterday. Those Sangvis Ferri Dragoons are quite smart, so I don't have to worry too much about the chores at the vertical farm."
When Architect changed jobs, the number of Sangvis Ferri T-dolls she brought with her was not large, but not too small either, only slightly less than the original number of Sangvis Ferri T-dolls on the ship, about thirty or so.
Among them are Ripper, Guard, Dragoon, and a few Jaeger... Uh, it seems that there is one more Sangvis Ferri T-doll to distinguish from the other...
"Hmm, there are too many things to do at your farm. Isn't it enough that there are already more than a dozen Ripper residents there?" C96 held her chin with a little envy.
After all, with the help of Sangvis Ferri T-dolls, she didn't have to do much herself.
"There is no way. After all, the recipes on G36's side are getting richer, and the types of crops to be planted are also increasing. Moreover, because the commander doesn't know what to do with those culture tanks, those crops are almost different every hour, and they are growing wildly every day. The warehouse is almost full now."
"Then plant less."
"There are already very few plants of each type, otherwise the vertical farm cannot grow so many types of crops in that small space."
While Nagant Revolver was chatting, Renault removed all the external armor of the Jupiter Cannon, leaving only the main parts inside.
However, Renault was now tilting his head, holding his mobile phone with his shoulder, because he had business coming in.
"Hmm? Buying vegetables? And fruits? Why didn't Helian call me? Can Griffin's logistics officer make individual decisions like this now?"
"Hey, hey, hey! Because Poposha and the others often talk about it, and this time, Gentiane got a large amount of activity funds from Persica, so we have to make good use of it!" Kalina's voice sounded very happy, and it was obvious she got a lot of funds from Gentiane.
"Okay, I'll send you the list later. Just send me a message when you decide what you want."
"Yeah, I'll send it after I confirm it."
This is a bit strange. He didn't expect that his previous customers didn't come, but Kalina did.
Well, it's good to have business. Since this guy is a repeat customer, I'll give her a discount. Anyway, the inventory is too much to store.
Kalina's actions were much faster than Renault imagined. He just asked G36 for the list of goods and sent it over. In less than two minutes, Kalina's order was sent to Renault's mobile phone.
Not only was the speed fast, but the order volume also surprised Renault. She directly ordered about half of the spare inventory on the spacecraft. Could Kalina be so generous?
Will Gentiane's wallet be emptied by her?
With this order, the Sangvis Ferri Dolls on the ship immediately took action, packing and transporting, and moving out all the things originally stored in the warehouse.
"I didn't expect it to be this place again. Commander Gentiane received a promotion? Is this large Griffin base under her control now?" Looking at the familiar frontier base in front of her, M1911 couldn't help but sigh.
"Promotion is also a good thing. Hey! This time Renault will definitely make a lot of money from Gentiane! Then the pocket money will definitely be..."
"Yes, yes, MDR, don't think too much. Selling things is not considered fieldwork, so there is no subsidy. Ah! No! There is still a subsidy, but it has nothing to do with you. The ones who can get the subsidy are NZ75 and MG3, and the Sangvis Ferri Dolls who are helping over the farm."
"Eh! No! It's fine that NZ75 and the others have extra money! Why even Sangvis Ferri Dolls! Ah! In this case, that new..."
"MDR! The commander gave me a subsidy! Can you help me contact the seller of the film camera... What? What's that expression on your face?" Just as MDR was wailing indignantly, Vera ran over waving her mobile phone.
"Vera! Why can you get the money? Why can't I?"
"Uh, maybe because I go to the vertical farm to help out occasionally?"
"Damn it! When did you go to help behind my back? Aren't we partners?"
MDR's screams came directly from the top deck to the cargo door at the rear, which surprised Kalina, who was counting the cargo.
"Are the dolls in Commander Renault's home always this energetic?"
Unlike G&K's dolls, Kalina could feel that the dolls in Renault's home were obviously more lively than G&K's dolls. Even the G36 who was handing over the goods to her looked more cheerful than the G36 next to Gentiane.
"It's about the same, but sometimes it's too lively. You guys are also very busy here. Look, another guest is coming."
In the sky not far away, a large transport plane was gradually lowering its altitude.
"Oh! It must be the big wallet this time... No! The sponsor who supports Commander Gentiane's funds is here!"
Looking at the gradually landing transport plane, Kalina's face was full of joy.
Chapter 92 Just Go and Take a Look
"No wonder this guy is so generous. It seems that she got a lot of activity funds from Persica." Looking at Kalina, who was smiling and welcoming the AR team and Persica not far away, MDR gritted her teeth unhappily.
"Hey, MDR, take a look. The drone should have taken a good picture this time." Vera raised the drone controller in her hand and showed the screen to MDR standing beside her.
"Oh! Not bad! Very clear! Even the sly smile on Kalina's face was clearly captured! This time, this profiteer must be exposed on the anonymous board! Let Griffin's dolls see the true face of this guy!"
While speaking, MDR opened her mobile phone and sent the picture taken by the drone to the anonymous board.
Seeing the prompt that the post had been successfully published, MDR couldn't stop smiling at all. Although she didn't get extra pocket money, it was also good to take the opportunity to get more attention to her account!
"Um, MDR, Kalina is just the logistics officer of Commander Gentiane. Even if she goes viral on the anonymous board, it shouldn't have any impact, right? After all, Commander Gentiane's base is just one of Griffin's many frontier bases."
Although Griffin didn't have the upper hand in the battle with Sangvis Ferri some time ago and even lost several areas under Griffin's control, Griffin's current control range is still substantial.
For example, this frontier base on Gentiane's side is actually just one of Griffin's bases. Griffin's commander is not just Gentiane after all.
"Hey! This is old news. This is the disadvantage of not visiting anonymous board often. Because of the fierce offensive of Sangvis Ferri and the actions of the military, many Griffin commanders have resigned voluntarily."
"Uh? Huh? Resigned? Why?" Type 56, who was eating snacks in her hand, was surprised to hear what MDR said, but she was just surprised. She is not a doll of Griffin now, and Griffin's situation has nothing to do with her.
Besides, it was only the human commanders who resigned, which has nothing to do with the dolls.
"Well, after all, the previous Sangvis attack was a bit scary. Not all Griffin commanders can be like Commander Gentiane... Well, how should I put it, a heart of stone? No, no, no, should I say rock-hard? It doesn't seem quite right. Anyway, there are not many commanders with a big heart like Gentiane. Most of them can't withstand the attacks from Sangvis. After all, fighting against armored units is not the job of security contractors like Griffin."
"Uh, is that so? Then... what does it have to do with Commander Gentiane and Kalina?" Vera still didn't quite understand.
"Don't you understand? Because those commanders resigned, a large number of dolls were transferred to Commander Gentiane's side. Now Commander Gentiane's base has gathered at least one-third of all Griffin dolls!"
"Well, no wonder Kalina is so rich now. This time she helped us clean up the inventory. She bought all the stock from four warehouses. I don't know this time... Ah! By the way! I plan to go to the Griffin base. Don't you want to go?"
With a mouth full of food, Type 56 asked MDR and the others while eating snacks.
"Go to the Griffin base? Is it okay?"
Vera was a little surprised.
Commander Renault brought them here this time just to sell goods to Griffin.
Griffin shouldn't allow them to enter at will, right?
"What's wrong with this? Aren't we 100% Griffin dolls now? Well, from the perspective of identifying signals." Type 56 said, waving the half-eaten snack in her hand.
"Huh? Oh! That's it!" Hearing this, Vera suddenly realized that although her body had not been updated, her neural cloud had been reinforced by Renault, and her recognition system was naturally the same as other dolls at home.
"Yes, yes! Why didn't I think of it! Just take this opportunity to go to Griffin Base and let that guy take a good look at my greatness! Let's go! Hurry up! If you go too late, you won't have the chance to show off in front of that guy!"
Since Type 56 could think of going to Griffin Base, there must be other dolls going with her. By then, the ones at Griffin's side and the other dolls on Griffin will definitely know...
Hey! Now it's better to run a few steps!
"Hey! Wait! Wait for me!" Seeing MDR running out in a flash, Vera hurriedly chased after her.
With MDR leading the way, the dolls initially had not thought of going to Griffin Base, one by one, all quietly mixed into Griffin's dolls and moved towards Griffin Base.
"Hmm?" Renault, who was looking at the statistics, also caught a glimpse of the dolls moving towards the Griffin base. After all, their clothes were easy to identify. The Griffin dolls always wore the same clothes. It would be strange if they couldn't recognize them.
"What's wrong, Commander? Ah, isn't that... um, they seem to be going to the Griffin base. Shouldn't we stop them?" Looking in the direction Renault was looking, M1 Garand also found those restless dolls and asked hesitantly.
She had some idea of what the dolls at home were like now. They were much noisier than the Griffin dolls. If they got into the Griffin base, who knows what kind of trouble they would cause.
"No, let them play. Anyway, there's nothing to do now. It doesn't matter if they stay here for a day or two."
He didn't have anything else to do with the dolls at home right now. It was just right to stop here for a while and let these guys go to the Griffin base to make trouble. This also allows him to have some free time to fiddle with the new doll body materials.
"Well, okay." M1 Garand nodded, sighing helplessly in her heart, hoping that those guys would not make too much trouble in Griffin's base, otherwise even if his commander had a good relationship with Commander Gentiane of this base, it would not end well in the end.
In addition to MDR and the others, SOP2 and AR15 also went over. After all, they had already seen M4 and RO went over here, so how could they not go over and take a look?
Of course, when Renault's dolls were heading towards Griffin's base, Persica, who got off the transport plane, also noticed the spaceship parked not far away. While talking to Kalina, she looked absent-minded, and her eyes kept glancing in the direction of the spaceship.
Chapter 93 Take the Opportunity to Run Away!
"SOP2!? AR15!? Why are you two here?" M4 asked in surprise when she saw SOP2 and AR15 wearing casual clothes and looking very relaxed, even without their own weapons.
Although this is outside the Griffin base, it still belongs to the Griffin Airport. Outsiders should not be allowed to enter this area.
"Kalina ordered a lot of things from Renault. I happened to see you when I came to deliver the goods, so I came to take a look." AR15 nodded to Persica as a greeting.
"Huh? Delivering goods? Commander Renault is also a part-time seller?" Hearing this, RO was also a little surprised. Although she had seen those facilities on Renault's spaceship before, shs thought that facilities of that scale should only be able to meet the consumption of the dolls on Renault's spaceship. She didn't expect that they could be sold to the outside world.
"Well, it's not often, maybe only two or three times, but this time Kalina really helped a lot, clearing out four warehouses, so the space on the spaceship can be a little bigger! Speaking of which, there are more and more people on the ship recently, and I always feel that the space on the spaceship has become a bit crowded." SOP2 scratched her head and said after thinking for a moment.
"Eh? Four warehouses? Where did Kalina get so much money? Griffin's funds should not be so abundant, right?" After explaining her own situation to Kalina, Persica also came over and asked curiously after hearing this.
However, compared to Kalina's source of funds, Persica was more interested in the situation of SOP2 and AR15 in front of her.
Well, I'm really curious. SOP2 doesn't look as jumpy as before when she was in Griffin, and AR15 doesn't look as awkward as before. Is the personality module in their neural cloud invalid? Or is there something else...
"Since you two have finally come back, how about coming to my lab for a checkup? I'm also curious about what Renault did to you." Persica's eyes lit up as she spoke. With the dark circles under her eyes, she looked a little scary.
"Checkup? Sure." SOP2 agreed without thinking, and AR15 next to her shrugged her shoulders when she heard this.
"That's fine, but don't take too long, otherwise Renault might come looking for us."
"Hmm! Really, Renault is watching you guys very closely, but AR15 you are still..."
Seeing that AR15 agreed, Persica came up happily, but before she could succeed, AR15 held her head down. "Don't just hug me here! You're not a child anymore!"
"By the way, AR15, since Renault sold a lot of stuff this time, there should be some alcohol in the goods Griffin purchased, right?"
M16 wasn't too excited at this time, after all, she had just left Renault's ship not long ago, and they had been apart for less than a week.
"Alcohol? You're probably going to be disappointed. Kalina didn't include alcohol in the purchase list, but if you want to drink, you can go to the ship to find Executioner and the others. Most of the dolls on the ship just now ran to the Griffin base, and only the Sangvis Ferri dolls are on the ship."
Because there were only a few dolls in Renault's house that could consume alcohol, the inventory of alcohol was the largest on the ship.
In order to have enough containers to store the alcohol brewed by Simonov and the others, most of the discarded parts that Nagant Revolver and the others had brought back were recycled into liquid containers.
"Oh! That's no problem! I'm very familiar with them! I'll go over and take a look first!" Hearing this, M16 of course no longer hesitated, waved her hand, and ran out.
"Eh? Sister 16? We haven't reported to Commander Gentiane yet!"
"Well! It's okay! It's just a few minutes late! You two go first, I'll be back soon!"
...
"It's great, they can all go to Griffin's base to play, I want to go too." Architect looked at those guys who sneaked into the Griffin dolls without anyone noticing, and couldn't help but say with some envy.
"Architect, don't think about these messy things, it will cause trouble for Renault." Gager sighed helplessly.
Architect is really a troublemaker. If they run to the Griffin base, I'm afraid the Griffin base will explode immediately.
"Eh? Gager, you've changed too fast, haven't you? Are you starting to think for Renault now?" Architect said in surprise. After all, Gager was reluctant to come to Renault.
She didn't expect that after just a few days, she would already think from Renault's perspective.
"I'm not thinking for him, I just don't want to see you being caught by Griffin and disassembled into parts."
"Hey? ...What? Where is Intruder going?"
The Architect hesitated and didn't dare to act, but Intruder who had been under Renault for a long time, a superior fish-slacking monster, how could she miss such an opportunity to go to the Griffin base to play? After all, she knew Renault won't care if they make trouble here.
Anyway, she was already in a damaged state in Griffin's file. As long as she changed her clothes a little, put on a pair of glasses, etc., those Griffin dolls would definitely not recognize her, so it was no problem to go over there!
Even if something goes wrong, Renault is there to help. Renault is not the kind of guy Nyto will watch his men being captured by others.
"It should be the same as other dolls. After all, they also have Griffin's identification code. As long as the appearance changes, those dolls should not be able to detect it."
As Griffin's frontier base, the number of human staff inside must not be large. In this way, as long as they have Griffin's identification code, they can come and go freely in Griffin's base.
"Oh! Yes! Come on! Gager! Go to Ouroboros to borrow some clothes! Let's go and sightsee too!"
"Hey, don't ask for trouble, okay? Your leg is still a wheel now."
Just when Architect immediately took action, Nyto, who had been staying in the workshop, wandered into the cargo hold of the spacecraft. Because of the cargo, the cargo door was wide open at the moment. In addition, most of the dolls had gone to the Griffin base to play.
If she wanted to, it should be very easy to slip out of the spaceship!
Freedom is right in front of her!
Thinking so in her heart, Nyto looked around and confirmed that there were no dolls under Renault watching. Then she ran directly to the cargo door, intending to slip out while there was no one guarding there.
Unfortunately, when she ran to the door, the scattered memories in her mind stopped her.
Just running out like this... is it really okay?
Chapter 94 Should I Hide for a While?
"Well, Griffin's laboratory is more familiar after all. It looks exactly like Persica's original laboratory." Following Persica to the laboratory that Kalina had already arranged, SOP2 looked at the furnishings in the laboratory while flipping through the lockers lightly.
"Huh? Why are you so cautious?" RO was a little surprised to see SOP2's actions.
SOP2 used to be careless and looked like she was going to destroy the house wherever she went. How come she has learned to be light-footed now? It's really a bit unusual.
"Ah, Commander Renault told me before I went out to be gentle when I was moving, otherwise it's really possible..."
Crack!
While SOP2 talked to RO, shs forgot to let go of the locker door, and she subconsciously stood up while talking...
The locker that had just been installed not long ago was torn in half by SOP2.
"Ah... um, this..." Seeing the cabinet door in SOP2's hand, RO was choking back what she wanted to say.
No wonder Commander Renault asked this guy to be gentle.
"But why didn't I see you being so careful on the spaceship?"
"That's because all the facilities and equipment on the spaceship are specially made by Renault. They can withstand the damage caused by dolls, so there is no need to be cautious." AR15 also followed Persica in, looked at the ordinary equipment, and said helplessly.
Whether it is Griffin Base or Persica's laboratory, the things used here are all ordinary products.
Although they are indeed very expensive and top-notch equipment, these things are too fragile for them now. However, only Persica's laboratory needs to be more careful.
After all, the equipment here is very valuable. If it is damaged...
Who knows if Persica will ask Renault for compensation on a whim.
The other dolls who went to the Griffin base shouldn't anything to be worried about, as long as they did not rush into Griffin's combat command room and communication room, which had a lot of equipment, then there was nothing to worry about.
"Don't worry about such trivial matters! Hurry up! Let me check you carefully!" She had heard from AR15 that Renault not only replaced their bodies but even replaced things like their power cores.
Of course, what Persica wanted to know most were the problems related to AR15's mind, which was her main research direction.
Hearing this, AR15 also raised her foot and walked towards the chair placed next to the testing instrument, but before she had time to sit down, she asked with some concern, "Persica, how is the load-bearing capacity of this thing? Is it strong?"
"Strong! Really strong! Of course it's strong! I asked Kalina to buy the best equipment!"
"Oh, that's good." Hearing this, AR15 immediately breathed a sigh of relief, put her mind at ease, and sat down on the chair that could adjust the posture.
Creak!
As soon as she sat down, the "best equipment" Persica mentioned suddenly let out a whine!
AR15's heart skipped a beat, and she wanted to get up immediately, but she was afraid that the chair would fall apart if she moved too hard.
Just as she hesitated, the chair under her also let out a final whine.
Crack!
The several parts supporting the chair flew apart under the heavy pressure, and AR15 fell to the ground with the chair with a confused expression on her face. Moreover, because the chair and several surrounding instruments were all connected together, two of the equipment were knocked over and hit AR15...
Persica, who was already standing next to the console and preparing to start the detection program, stared at AR15 with her eyes wide open in disbelief.
She has been studying dolls for so many years, but this is the first time she has encountered such a situation. She crushed a device with a load-bearing capacity of at least 200 kilograms with her weight alone...
Wait...
"My equipment!?"
...
Persica's wailing should not be heard this time, because her research room was placed by Kalina near the bottom of the Griffin base.
In that area, dolls usually don't run around, so no one except AR15 and M4 can hear Persica's shouting.
And the dolls in the Griffin base don't care about Persica, a 'new face' who just arrived at the base.
"Ahaha! You can't hit me! You just can't hit me! I just like to see your angry but helpless expression ahahaha!"
MDR... Well, the MDR of the Renault family dodged left and right in the corridor, and the one chasing behind her was another MDR of Griffin.
MDR's purpose was very clear. She came to Griffin Base to find trouble with the MDR here. Therefore, not long after she came in, she found MDR who was trying to steal a reconnaissance drone from the material warehouse.
Just a little bit of showing off her current treatment in front of this guy, and the number of followers on her account that was several times that of the other party, Griffin's MDR exploded directly.
After all, there was a guy with the same name as her who was live-streaming and have breaking news all day long, and it felt like she had taken away all the popularity that should belong to her...
It was totally unbearable!
"Damn it! You bastard! You shouldn't be Griffin's doll now!? How could you appear here!?"
"Hey! Come and catch me! I'll tell you when you catch me!" Perhaps awakening some unknown bad taste, MDR, as soon as she saw the angry look of Griffin's MDR in front of him, she immediately got excited, and the smile on her face never stopped.
The two dolls chased and played, and directly led out the manager of this Griffin base, well, that is, Gentiane. "What's going on? MDR, what are you doing? What are you playing with your dummy? Is there something wrong with your mind?"
When she saw the two MDRs, the first thing that came to her mind was that MDR was controlling her dummy to direct and act for a livestream.
She never thought that one of the two was actually a guy who sneaked in from outside to have fun.
Not far away, Vera, who came with MDR, subconsciously hid behind after seeing Gentiane wearing the Griffin Commander uniform. After all, they were illegally invading someone else's base, and if they were discovered, it might be bad.
Well, it seems that they have been discovered. After all, MDR's swaggering look didn't intend to hide anything at all.
"Ah, Commander Gentiane, we are here to play. Are Poposha and the others busy now?"
Just when Vera was worried about being discovered, Nagant Revolver had already walked towards Gentiane, waving and greeting her as she walked.
Chapter 95 Price Increase
"Hmm, dummy dolls... Commander Renault doesn't seem to have a plan to equip us with dummy dolls." Seeing that Poposha alone led four dummy dolls to undertake the engineering work of a small team, Nagant Revolver said with a little envy.
"Well, sometimes dummy dolls are not so easy to use. I have to distract myself to do other things. As a result, now the whole Griffin knows that I am a bit clumsy." Poposha, who was sitting in the open driver's seat, sighed helplessly.
It's not a good thing to have too many dummy dolls. If they are only used in combat, she thinks she can still control the actions of the dummy dolls.
But in daily work, she is powerless. The daily work is not as open and close as in similar tocombat. For example, now, in the cable laying construction on the bottom floor of the base, you must always pay careful attention to those equipment and building materials..
Bang!
As she was talking, the bipedal engineering machine controlled by Poposha turned around and directly hit a supporting column beside her.
The metal supporting column seemed to have not been completely fixed yet. After being hit by Poposha, it tilted to one side. The creaking sound of scraping against the ground also scared Poposha and Nagant Revolver.
"Eh!?" Poposha, who was a little panicked, immediately controlled the engineering machine to turn around and tried to hold the supporting column.
"Wow!" Seeing this, Nagant Revolver and others rushed up to help hold up the supporting column. "Huh, Poposha, you should fix the supporting column first and continue the excavation work."
"Sorry! Sorry!" Seeing that Nagant Revolver and others had stabilized the situation, Poposha hurriedly stepped forward to take over, and at the same time controlled several dummy figures next to her to hold the load-bearing column on the ground with tools.
"Alas, I always feel that the dummy is getting harder and harder to control. Every time I do this kind of thing, there will always be a little bit of dizziness." Poposha, who jumped off the construction machinery and concentrated on controlling the dummy to fix the load-bearing column, sighed helplessly.
"Could it be that your neural cloud's space is not enough?" Looking at Poposha's distressed look, Nagant Revolver couldn't help but think of her own pitifully small neural core.
"Uh, this, it shouldn't be, the same M3 as mine doesn't have this phenomenon." Poposha scratched her head, looked at the time, and sorted out all the equipment. It seems that she is going to get off work.
Besides, Nagant Revolver has already found this place. She can't let others stand aside and watch her work, right?
She just doesn't know how Nagant Revolver and the others got here. This should be Griffin's confidential area, right? Did they get permission?
"Hey, it must be that you do too many things in your daily life. There are too many redundant data in the neural core. Just sort it out or change to a larger neural core and it will be fine!"
However, although that is the case, it is estimated that a doll's mind and the work optimization method sorted by the doll itself will also be regarded as redundant data. After all, these things are not directly related to the combat of tactical dolls.
And replacing the neural core is indeed quite simple for Renault, but it may not be the case for Griffin.
First of all, it depends on whether Griffin has a sufficient budget, and secondly, it is Griffin's technical problem. After all, the technology of mind transfer has no practical value for Griffin, because no matter whether it is data migration or data replication, the recreated doll will not lose any memory, and there is no loss for Griffin at all.
While walking, Nagant Revolver and several others also came close to Poposha's ear and talked about mind transfer.
As for why there are no other Griffin dolls besides Poposha on their side?
That's because... um, the arrival of several Sangvis Ferri Dolls made the entire Griffin Base boil.
Intruder who swaggered into the Griffin Base really caused a lot of trouble for Gentiane.
"Kalina! You! Can you notify me in advance when you call Renault next time?!" Gentiane said in an annoyed whisper, grabbing Kalina who wanted to take the opportunity to slip away and leave the mess to herself.
"Hehe! It's not that I didn't remind you, Commander, I handed the relevant documents to you in person this morning." Upon hearing this, Kalina immediately said with a sly smile.
"Morning... morning? I didn't get up at all in the morning! When did you hand it over! Could it be that you took advantage of me raising my hand to press the alarm! You guy!"
As soon as you see the smirk on this guy's face, you know that its not a good thing! This guy! There must be a limit to being sneaky!
Of course, it is okay not to report this kind of thing to Gentiane, after all, Kalina is a logistics officer, and these things are within Kalina's authority.
The reason why an application was submitted to Gentiane was only because of Renault's special status.
However, this is just a formality, because Statesec does not intend to deal with Renault, and the military has no comment.
In fact, Renault and his people are not much different from illegal residents now...
Of course, if Kalina herself is from Statesec, she will not be willing to come to find trouble with Renault.
Such a guy who can drive a spaceship around and not be discovered is not a character they can deal with at this stage.
Whether it is the military or Statesec, they actually plan to monitor Renault's spaceship.
Unfortunately, they can only see the spaceship with their naked eyes at a close distance. Once Renault's ship leaves the city's airport, the ship will disappear from all detection equipment like a ghost every time.
Therefore, apart from confirming Renault's approximate location through some people in Griffin and Angelia, who knew Renault, they didn't even know where Renault's spaceship was parked.
The air defense facilities that were almost invincible against fighter planes in the past were almost blind when facing Renault's ship.
"Hey, Commander! Don't be so excited, it's okay, and if you buy those ordinary materials from Renault, the price will always be much cheaper, right? Don't forget that Griffin's suppliers are not philanthropists."
Reaching out her hand, Kalina twisted her fingers in front of Gentiane and reminded her.
Hearing this, Gentiane, who was having a headache because the whole base started to make a fuss, finally calmed down.
If it can save money, it is understandable. After all, the suppliers who have supplied goods to Griffin recently have been clamoring to raise prices.
Chapter 96 I'm Curious
"It's cheap, but Renault doesn't seem to have proper procedures, right?" After looking through the quotation sheet handed over by Kalina, Gentiane had a general understanding of the total price of this purchase.
It must be said that she was very satisfied with the price. After all, a large part of the money was not paid by herself. The activity funds of the Griffin branch accounted for a part, and Kalina also got some wool from Persica.
After all, compared with the original suppliers, the price was a quarter less.
Although it doesn't sound like much, considering the scale of Griffin's purchases, this number is already very impressive.
"I'm really envious. You can make so much money just by selling things. Why doesn't Griffin have this technology?" Looking at the total price at the end of the list, Gentiane muttered with some sourness in her heart.
The amount of money Renault could get from this purchase alone was enough to cover her hard work for several years. If she hadn't been promoted recently and her salary had increased significantly, she might not have earned so much in ten years.
"Don't even think about it. Griffin is not an agricultural company, and not everyone can take out so many goods at once like Renault." Kalina was a little surprised about the source of the goods Renault had. After all, even if there was a vertical farm, the amount of goods was far beyond the output of a normal vertical farm, right?
Kalina didn't plan to think too much about it. After all, her main job was still Griffin's logistics officer. This kind of money-making thing had nothing to do with her. Alas, she could only find ways to empty the wallets of Gentiane and the dolls. It was too pitiful, crying.
……
"Since the equipment here is broken, let's go to Renault's ship. Renault will definitely agree to such a small matter!"
Faced with SOP2's proposal, Persica, who had long been very curious about the research facilities on Renault's ship, would never refuse. She immediately took off her shoes and ran to Renault with several dolls.
Then they met Renault.
"Commander! Persica's equipment is broken, and she wants to go to the ship to help us check it!" As soon as SOP2 saw Renault, she immediately waved her hand and shouted loudly, causing AR15, who was trying to think of a euphemism, to sigh helplessly.
M4 and RO beside them also smiled awkwardly. After all, SOP2 and AR15, whether in terms of their physical or mental data, had nothing to do with Griffin. It was a bit unreasonable for Persica to check them.
They could still let Persica take a look at them secretly at Griffin's place, but now they came to the door like this... It's really a bit...
After all, it's like a stranger suddenly coming up to you and asking you how much money you have in your wallet...
"Well? Go ahead, be safe." Renault raised his eyebrows when he heard this, looked up and down at Persica, who looked a little sloppy, and then waved his hand.
Of course, he knew what Persica was up to. He just wanted to see the current mental data of SOP2 and AR15. He had already thought of this kind of thing. It was not a big deal. After deleting all the messy root protocols of the dolls, Renault had already given the dolls the authority to rewrite their own base code data. As long as they did not want to, Persica won't be able to take a look.
It was just a look. It would not cost him anything. It was no big deal.
And with Persica's technology, it was impossible to rewrite the bottom layer of the Neural Clouds of SOP2 and AR15 with the original doll technology.
After deleting all the root protocols, the doll's mind would immediately deviate from the original track. Although it would still be affected by the original mental personality template, it was just an influence.
And the doll's mind would grow rapidly after all restrictions were lifted. As long as there was enough space in the neural core, the various data in the doll's mind would soon expand to dozens or even hundreds of times the limit of the root protocol.
After the data in the neural cloud is no longer restricted by the underlying protocol, whether it is the data interface or the various data sorting methods, it will all become unrestrained.
Even Persica may not be able to do anything with the doll's mind in this situation.
At least, it is absolutely impossible without the help of a large sophisticated equipment.
On Renault's spaceship, or more precisely, in the workshop, there is no such equipment at all. The main control system of the spaceship can do it, but it's a pity that Persica has no authority over the ship.
Persica, on the other hand, was a little confused when she saw Renault agreed to this matter so casually. She originally thought that Renault would refuse it sternly.
Scratching her messy hair, Persica followed SOP2 and walked towards the cargo hold entrance of the spaceship. However, after just two steps, she saw a somewhat dazed figure standing there.
It seemed that she was planning to get off Renault's spaceship, but the other party just stood there stupidly, without any intention of taking a step.
"Huh? Who are you? Why have I never seen you before?" SOP2, who was walking in front, also saw this figure. The other person's face looked very unfamiliar. She was sure that she had never seen this guy in the spaceship. It seemed that the figure with long black hair did not hear SOP2's words. It was still motionless, with a blank gaze, and looked without any spirit.
"What's wrong with her?" SOP2 waved in front of the other person, and seeing that the other person still did not respond, he immediately patted the shoulder of a Ripper next to her and asked.
"I don't know, she just stood there, and has been standing there for nearly five minutes." The Ripper, who was cleaning the floor with a vacuum cleaner and chatting with the Ripper next to her, looked up and responded.
Seeing that the Rippers did not intend to pay attention to the guy in front of her, SOP2 also scratched her head strangely and looked back at AR15.
But before AR15 could speak, Persica had already passed the two and came to the figure in a black long skirt, curiously poking the other person's cheek with his hand.
"Hmm, this touch... seems..."
It seems that this is not a bionic skin material of a doll?
Persica muttered softly, and lowered her head to look at the other party's body. Whether it is the mechanical parts of the arms and feet, they all seem to use doll technology, but they also look a bit like prostheses...
Seeing Persica's actions, AR15's heart skipped a beat. When SOP2 asked the Ripper, she had already contacted Scarecrow at home, and knew that this guy who looked very unfamiliar was actually an unknown unit from Paradeus.
Although Renault said that this guy was not a threat, that was for the dolls and Sangvis Ferri on the ship. He didn't say that Persica, a thorough human, would not be in danger!
"It's really curious, this..."
Chapter 97 Who!?
"Don't be curious. Now is not the time for you to be willful. This is not someone you can be curious about."
Seeing Persica unconsciously trying to reach out and pull up the other's arm to check her body, AR15, who had just contacted Scarecrow through the doll communication network, would never let this out-of-line guy go wild.
Even Scarecrow didn't know whether this guy named Nieto would suddenly go berserk on the ship. To prevent Persica's head from being suddenly broken by Nieto, she must stop this guy's reckless behavior.
Of course, AR15 actually thought too much. The current Nieto's combat power is equivalent to that of a Ripper. Even if this Nieto really attacked Persica, she would have pinched this guy out of Persica's hands.
"Eh? Wait, wait..."
Without saying anything, AR15 directly picked Persica up and put her down only after entering the elevator at the end of the cargo hold.
Persica, whose feet landed again, breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed her ribs, "AR15, why are you so nervous? I just want to see that guy's body."
"No, you can see other dolls on this ship, even the Sangvis Ferri dolls, as long as you ask for their consent, but you can't see that guy just now. That guy hid in the supply box and sneaked on board. She is also a member of Paradeus. I can't guarantee that she won't attack you."
AR15 shook her head and said with a straight face. If she doesn't take it seriously, Persica will never realize the seriousness of the problem.
"Hidden in the supply box?" RO heard this and looked at AR15 strangely, wanting to get an answer from her.
"Well, I found it not long ago. We bought some doll parts and materials from Griffin. That guy sneaked in by hiding in those supply boxes. Commander Renault should know what her purpose is, but it shouldn't be very important or threatening, otherwise Scarecrow would know."
"From Griffin?"
"No, she just hid in Griffin's supply box. Scarecrow said that the technology and situation used by that guy are somewhat similar to the Paradeus combat unit seen during a previous mission. The details... I don't know the details. It's better to ask Scarecrow about these things."
AR15 wanted to explain, but she only had a vague understanding of doll body technology. It would be better to let Scarecrow explain it in the workshop later.
"Scarecrow? Is it... Scarecrow we are familiar with?" M4, who had been listening nearby, suddenly heard and she remembered the three elite Sangvis Dolls including Scarecrow with Architect in the Sangvis Ferri base before, and asked with some confusion.
"Of course, otherwise, there could be... Oh, M4, are you talking about Scarecrow and Hunter who were with Architect before? They are on the ship, but Hunter, uh, the two Hunters seem to have gone to Griffin Base, Scarecrow and Executioner should still be at home."
"Oh, so that's it." M4 nodded. Although she was a little surprised that Renault could make Sangvis Ferri dollls his own in such a short time, it didn't seem strange when she thought of the many Sangvis Ferri Dolls on Renault's ship.
"Hey, really, what method did Renault use? The root protocol of Sangvis Ferri should be difficult to modify." Persica frowned.
When she worked with Gentiane before, she also asked Gentiane to help collect some Sangvis Ferri doll body parts, and even some Sangvis Ferri Dinergates and Sangvis Ferri mass-produced dolls. But no matter how she studied, it wasn't so easy to completely rewrite the base code protocols of Sangvis Ferri. It was okay to modify the Dinergates, but the minds of the other Automatons and Sangvis Ferri dolls were completely different.
"He just deleted it." SOP2 said lightly when she heard this.
Now the dolls on Renault's ship, even those Rippers who have awakened their self-awareness, have had their root protocols deleted, not to mention Scarecrow.
"Huaaa!" Persica screamed when she heard this, and the shrill cry immediately attracted the curious gazes of the Rippers passing by in the corridor.
Suddenly being stared at by so many Rippers, Persica, who had not felt anything at first, felt a creepy feeling in his heart for no reason after thinking that the base root protocols of these Rippers had all been deleted one by one!
Hiss!
Thinking of this, Persica shuddered subconsciously, and the goosebumps on hed body seemed to scatter on the ground.
"Hmm? AR15? Didn't you go to Griffin's base? You're back so soon?"
The Rippers were not the only ones attracted by Persica's call.
Scarecrow in the workshop also curiously poked her head out to look over near the door after hearing a strange call.
"Well, Griffin's equipment is broken. Persica wants to borrow the equipment here. She has already told the commander."
"Is that so? Come on. I have nothing to do now." Hearing this, Scarecrow nodded and did not doubt AR15's words.
After all, Renault was not far from the spaceship before. At such a close distance, Renault could not fail to notice that AR15 and the others brought a stranger here.
Scarecrow noticed a long time ago that Renault's body was different from that of ordinary people, so it was not surprising that he had some strange abilities.
And when M1911 was chatting, she once said that Renault was a transmitrator, so she felt that even if she saw Renault take out a belt and shout "Henshin," she would not find it strange.
Persica stood behind SOP2, watching Scarecrow appear from the door of the workshop. She was a little worried about the deleted root protocols, but she couldn't help but be curious about the mental data of the other party at this time.
After hesitating for a moment, she was finally pulled by SOP2 to walk towards the workshop.
...
"Hehe~" Gentiane looked at the list of goods in her hand, and she was in a good mood.
Although it cost a lot of money, it saved a lot this time, and the various ingredients produced by Renault were of absolutely excellent quality, especially the fruits and vegetables she ate last time, which were simply extremely...
"Really slack, I didn't expect the defense inside the famous Griffin base to be so empty."
"What! Who!?" Gentiane was startled when she suddenly heard a strange voice in front of her and looked up at the figure sitting on the command terminal table.
She didn't know until she saw it. Gentiane was shocked when she saw it because the person sitting on the table in front of her was not someone else, but Hunter! The Sangvis Ferri Hunter!
Sangvis Ferri's elite doll Hunter!? How could she be here!?
Looking at Hunter's uniform, which was exactly the same as the one in the file, Gentiane's heart sank, and one hand quietly reached for the pistol under the table.
Chapter 98: Eat More, It's Good for you
"Do you think that toy, which can only be used to hit cans, can deal with me?" Seeing Gentiane's inconspicuous action, Hunter shook the gun in her hand as if nothing had happened.
Although it looks like a pistol, it is produced by Sangvis Ferri, a particle weapon, and its power is enough to match that of an ordinary light machine gun. Compared with the gun in Gentiane's hand, it is not at the same level at all.
"You... you should be Hunter of Renault? What do you want to do here?" Seeing Hunter looking at the command room absent-mindedly, Gentiane frowned, and then thought of the situation on Renault's side.
Recently, no trace of Sangvis Ferri dolls has been found around her base. Let alone elite dolls, not even a Dinergate has been seen. So the only person who can appear here and sneak into the command room quietly can be Hunter under Renault...
Although she has not seen the Sangvis elite dolls from Renault in person, Gentiane is the commander of Griffin after all, and she knows that Renault has taken away many Sangvis Ferri elite dolls.
However, even though she has guessed that Hunter in front of her is the Sangvis doll from Renault's home, Gentiane did not relax.
Just kidding! She knows Renault well, but she doesn't know these Sangvis dolls.
If she really knows someone, I'm afraid it's only Hunter from Renault's home. Hunter with a cat is still very cute, and it feels not much different from the childish dolls in Griffin.
As for Hunter in front of her, she had never seen her in person. Even if she had seen her, she had no way to confirm whether she came here for some other mission.
After all, she was a doll of Sangvis Ferri. Maybe she was here to kill her, the commander of Griffin who resisted Sangvis Ferri...
"I just came to see what the commander of Griffin who used to fight with us looked like. Thank you for taking care of me when we were in the S09 area."
Just as Gentiane was staring at Hunter in front of her and wondering about his intentions, another voice suddenly sounded from the window on Gentiane's left.
What!?
Hearing this voice, Gentiane didn't care about being alert to Hunter in front of her. She reached out, grabbed the pistol, and turned her head back!
Hunter sitting on the table in front of Gentiane didn't react to Gentiane's actions. She just pulled the corner of her mouth slightly
Obviously, she could see the shocked expression on Gentiane's face, which made her very happy.
When Gentiane turned around, she was startled by the figure by the window before she raised her gun.
Another Hunter!? No! Could it be a Dummy?
"Don't guess, we are both real Hunters, not Dummies, and the dummies of Sangvis Ferri and Griffin are not the same product."
Although Sangvis Ferri's elite dolls do have the authority to use dummies, Hunter was not included in this list.
In fact, there are only a few elite dolls who can use dummies, and compared with the dummy dolls used by Griffin's tactical dolls, Sangvis Ferri's dummies are more like a copy of the original body.
To be honest, it's actually very similar to their current situation...
Hearing Hunter's words, Gentiane's face twitched.
She hadn't spoken yet, how did this guy guess what she wanted to ask? Is her expression easy to read? When did Sangvis Ferri's dolls become so sharp?
"I've been reading some books lately. Anyway, it's our first meeting. We are Hunter, former Sangvis Ferri Doll. Good afternoon, Commander Gentiane."
Hunter in casual clothes at the window came over, stretched out her hand, and shook hands with Gentiane, who was still a little unresponsive.
"Well, her hand is very steady. If you hadn't made a sound just now, she would have definitely put the bullet into your head." Hunter in casual clothes also looked clear after releasing hee hand and looked up and said to another hunter.
Hearing this, Hunter 2 who appeared first curled her lips and did not comment on it.
She has not yet replaced with a new body, but she still doubts that Gentiane can shoot before she does.
Seeing that she didn't believe her, Hunter 1 shrugged her shoulders. After staying on Renault's ship for so long, she didn't know what effect the crops produced by the vertical farm would have after being eaten by people, but after animals ate them, they would definitely...mutate...
Whether it was the cats raised by Jaegerl and UMP40, or the animals bred by MG3 and Alchemist in the farm, although they didn't have a few more legs, their physical strength and mobility were far superior to ordinary animals.
So... if people eat it...
It might also have some physical enhancement effects?
"Um, hello, no, what on earth do you want to see me for?" Seeing Hunter in front of her shaking hands with her so politely, Gentiane was also a little confused, not knowing what this guy wanted to do.
"Humph, you don't have any defense at all. At this distance, she can twist your head off in 0.5 seconds." Watching Gentiane shaking hands with another her, Hunter who was sitting on the table shrugged her shoulders and said.
Um... So what on earth are you here for? Can't you just give me a straight answer?
"Don't mind us, she just came to Renault and is a little uncomfortable for a while. This time she just came to see Commander Gentiane. There is no other meaning. Let's go."
After saying that, the two hunters turned around and walked towards the door of the command room in sync.
This mindless move made Gentiane's head full of question marks. After all, she still couldn't understand what these two guys meant.
However, just when the two hunters were about to walk out of the door, Hunter in casual clothes suddenly turned around and said, "By the way, Commander Gentiane, you can eat more of the things you bought from Commander Renault. It's good for your body."
Good for your body? What good can it be? Does it count if it tastes good?
Gentiane, who was confused by Hunter's words, tilted her head strangely, and really didn't understand what the other party meant.
Benefits the body... body... body!?
However, Gentiane was not stupid. After thinking for a moment, she immediately thought of the inexplicable changes in her body!
Her physical strength increased, her power increased, and even her body coordination and reaction speed improved a lot...
Isn't this change exactly what happened after she ate the ingredients Renault sent over!?
Combined with what Hunter just said...If you think about it this way, her body can have such a big change, all because of eating those ingredients. If she continues to eat like this, then she may become a superman directly!
Thinking of this, Gentiane's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly stepped out of the door, but the two hunters had already left.
Chapter 99: What Are You Making Here!
"Uh, this is really a tense working environment," Persica muttered, glancing at the two Scarecrows in the workshop who were staring at her with curiosity. She scratched her cheeks awkwardly, feeling that the horizontal range of her knees had expanded a little.
"Renault won't be nervous," one Scarecrow shrugged and said. "It's better to say that when working in the workshop, it's the two of us who are nervous."
"Uh, hehe," Persica smiled dryly and began to familiarize herself with the equipment in the workshop.
The things here are really quaint. These are models from more than ten years ago, right
It's a pity that Renault can repair these antiques and put them to use.
But... what is that device over there that I haven't seen before? It really makes people curious...
Persica, who was convincing herself to be patient with the old equipment, suddenly caught a glimpse of an unknown device placed opposite the repair warehouses.
Besides, why are there Dinergates sitting on the workbench in the workshop? The screen next to her... is it a doll's mind? Or an intelligent body in the Megara cloud? No, no, Renault shouldn't be able to connect to the Megara cloud, right?
"Excuse me, what is that device over there?" Although she was a little concerned about the doll mind on the screen, Persica decided to ask about the unfamiliar device.
Looking at the interface on it, it seems to be a device related to a doll's neural core.
"Hmm? The mind transfer device can directly transfer the doll neural cloud to another neural core intact." Turning her head to look at the device Persica pointed at, the Scarecrow raised her eyebrows and spoke. "Yeah, Griffin shouldn't have such equipment. After all, IOP has no reason to spend so much effort just to transfer the original data of the neural cloud. To them, the neural cloud is just a pile of data."
"Oh, mind transfer... um, mind transfer device? Are you sure?" Although it was a question, Persica obviously believed it. She subconsciously walked over, looking at the device with shining eyes, as if she was thinking about taking it apart to see the structure inside.
"Persica, don't forget what we are here for. Time is limited," AR15 sighed.
She didn't know how long Renault would stay at the Griffin base, so it would be better to complete the data check as soon as possible. She didn't think Renault would be so kind as to let Persica stay here forever.
"Well, okay," Persica reluctantly withdrew her gaze after hearing this and returned to the workbench. With the help of SOP2, she connected the scattered data cables to AR15 with some unfamiliarity.
Although the equipment was old, Persica had used it before and soon mobilized AR15's current relevant data.
However, what surprised her was that AR15 did not stop moving because of her actions. Her eyes were still looking at her with a pair of bright eyes, completely different from the time when she had to put a doll into a sleeping state every time she checked data in Griffin.
"Well, AR15, don't you need to migrate your main consciousness to the depth level 5? Wouldn't this have any impact on your mind?" Ordinary tactical dolls, when reading data, all have to migrate their consciousness to their lower level neural cloud levels.
Otherwise, the act of reading data is likely to cause mental confusion, resulting in some uncontrollable reactions in the doll's mind.
But now AR15's eyes are clear, and it is obvious that she has not been affected at all.
"No need, now we just need to open the data reading permission, it won't have any effect on the mind," AR15 said. "Well, it's just data reading, further modifying the mind permission, although you can also open it, but... there is no need."
"Uh, it's really different..." Persica muttered in a low voice, and after seeing AR15's current mental data, she was stunned.
Looking at those empty root base code protocols, a cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
This deletion is really thorough, it seems that there is nothing left... After deleting all the root protocols, can the doll's mind still remain stable?
It's just a data test. After AR15 is finished, it will be SOP2. In the somewhat confused eyes of RO and M4, Persica's eyebrows just frowned together.
"AR15, how long have your mental conditions been like this?"
"It's been like this since I came to Commander Renault," SOP2 tilted her head in a strange way, not knowing why Persica asked this.
Persica's eyes twitched when she heard SOP2's answer.
It has been like this since she came here... That is to say, it's not just AR15 and the others, but also the dolls before Renault, and the two Scarecrows beside her now...
At this time, all of them are dolls without any restrictions. Persica can't figure out how Renault can make so many dolls stay and work under her obediently without the restrictions of the root protocol.
And speaking of the other dolls under Renault... um, they seem to have run to the Griffin base now...
Is it really okay to let so many dolls without the restrictions of the root protocol move freely in the Griffin base?
Persica's messy thoughts in her mind were soon attracted by the data related to the bodies of AR15 and SOP2.
Just because this data looks really... a little too outrageous... Whether it's the output of the body or the duration of the energy system, it doesn't look like real data, right? How can a doll weigh hundreds of kilograms?
This is a doll, not a pile of precious metals. Even if it is overweight, there must be a limit, right? It's not like she hasn't seen the data of tactical dolls using military parts, and even the elite dolls of Sangvis Ferri can't compare to these data, right?
Looking at the data that is several times or even dozens of times higher than that of normal tactical dolls, Persica's face twisted in disbelief.
Although she is reluctant to believe it, there is always a voice in her heart that keeps repeating, 'This is true! This is true!'
Otherwise, how to explain her collapsed workbench and the equipment that was damaged?
"What's wrong with her?" The doll, seeing Persica's expression at the moment through the camera above the screen, asked the RPK16 next to her with some curiosity.
"Well, I guess she was scared by the body data of those two guys. The body used by Renault's dolls is probably completely beyond the scope of normal tactical dolls."
"How can this be called a tactical doll! This is a Terminator! Isn't this data a bit too outrageous for a tactical doll!?" Persica seemed to have heard RPK16's voice. After reading both sets of data, she shouted out in disbelief.
Chapter 100 Observation of the Alchemist's doll
"No way, Commander Renault didn't leave us any options when he replaced the body." AR15 shrugged, watching her right hand clench and unclench.
Although the weight of this body far exceeds that of a normal tactical doll, there is no doubt that the heavy body also brings powerful strength and defense, and AR15 is still very satisfied with it. At least it is better than before, where a shot in a vital part would require repair or re-manufacturing.
"That said... what is the energy core you are using now? With such a heavy body, the activity time should not exceed one day according to the original energy core?"
"It seems to be called a cold Fusion Engine or something, but Commander Renault forbids me to disassemble it privately, saying that it is a bit dangerous." SOP2 scratched her head.
Having said that, Renault did not make extra energy engines, and she usually couldn't touch them.
The only thing she could touch was probably her own energy engine, but if she disassembled it, she would probably crash immediately. After all, she couldn't touch the energy engine.
When Persica heard SOP2's words, her eyes narrowed immediately. Although she was not very good at energy technology, she was not completely ignorant. The energy engines on AR15 and SOP2 obviously used some advanced technology. She was a little curious...
Seeing the curious look on Persica's face, the scarecrow shook his head helplessly, "Don't think about it. The energy engine is very dangerous. Although under normal circumstances, the stability of the energy core is 99.99%, if it is disassembled randomly..."
"What will happen?"
"The probability of explosion is 100%."
Hearing RO's words, AR15 inexplicably felt a chill all over her body, staring at RO with extremely resentful eyes. This guy can't say something nice?
"Although it's not as exaggerated as she said, it's possible, so you'd better give up this idea." The scarecrow looked at Persica and said firmly. This is not a joke. SOP2 and Persica can't do whatever they want.
...
"It's really spacious. When we were in Griffin, we never had such a big base." M1911 said to P38 beside her. They didn't have a base at that time. It was just a stronghold like a storefront, and there was not even a safe house around.
"Well, it's spacious, but the doll dormitory is a bit..." P38 looked at the dolls that might have been occupied by dolls with some hesitation. There were very few furniture and facilities inside.
Although the space is more spacious than their dolls on the spaceship, if there is nothing, what's the use of being spacious... They don't need to do somersaults in the dormitory all day...
As the two walked and talked, they suddenly saw a doll lying on an ammunition box in the corridor in front of them and taking a nap.
This should be the warehouse of the combat readiness department, right? Why is this guy taking a nap here?
"This looks like an ammunition warehouse. Is it really okay for this guy to be so lazy?" M1911 scratched her cheek helplessly. If M1 Garand were here, she would probably grab this guy's ears and pull her up immediately.
"Well, it shouldn't matter. After all, there are so many authentication devices ahead. Those who can come here must have passed the identity authentication. It's just that this guy..." P38 was also a little strange. It was not this guy's behavior, but the inexplicable decadence on the other party...
"Well, let's go first. I always feel that if I stay with her, I might be infected..." M1911 said nervously.
"Yeah, it's almost all over. If I don't go back, the commander might call someone." P38 nodded quickly.
As the two talked, they turned their heads and walked back the way they came, without any intention of greeting the other.
After the two left, the doll figure who was dozing on the ammunition box suddenly raised her head and looked at their backs. "Strange, M1911 and P38? Where did they get the money to buy new clothes? When did that Greena guy buy cheap goods?" Just as M1911 and the other disappeared at the end of the corridor, a doll figure with long white hair and an eye mask suddenly came over, holding a notebook in her hand, and she didn't know what she was recording.
"Oh? Are there still doll guards here? Sure enough, the defense of the combat readiness department is quite strict. Hello, is this the ammunition depot? Can I go in for a visit?" The visitor smiled and said to the doll figure who had just sat up from the ammunition box. Although the smile on the visitor's face looked very friendly at first glance, M1918 always felt that the smile on the other person's face was like those guests who were visiting the zoo looking at the animals in the cage.
"You..." M1918 stood up with a frown after hearing the other party's words, constantly comparing the other party's appearance with the data in her mind, "Isn't it Griffin's doll?"
Although she guarded the warehouse all year round and rarely went on missions, she still knew most of the dolls in Griffin.
She never remembered when Commander Gentiane had such a guy with a fake smile on her face.
"Oh? Very sharp observation, or are you denying the Griffin identification signal on me?"
Alchemist was also a little surprised. She walked all the way here, and those Griffin dolls immediately regarded her as a Griffin doll when they saw the Griffin identification signal on her body, and they all answered questions one by one.
She didn't expect to meet a different guy here?
Thinking of this, the smile on Alchemist's face immediately changed. If it was a fake smile just now, then the smile on her face now is no different from that of a child who found a new toy.
"You... you are!? The Sangvis Ferri Alchemist!?" After comparing several times, and then excluding Alchemist's clothes from the comparison content, the human figure in front of M1918 was directly matched with the information of the Sangvis Ferri Elite doll Alchemist!
"Oh? Recognized? You can say that. So, what are you going to do now? Attack me?" Alchemist put the small notebook in her pocket and looked at the doll figure in front of her with her arms folded.
Compared to those boring doll figures, it is indeed more interesting to see this decadent-looking doll figure in front of her!
M1918 looked at the smiling Alchemist in front of her. Although she did not see that the other party was carrying a weapon, she could not compare the Sangvis Ferri Elite doll with the ordinary tactical doll. The combat capability of the Sangvis Ferri doll is not at the same level as Griffin's tactical doll!
Grabbing the imprint weapon beside her, M1918 couldn't help but sweat on her forehead.
