Chapter 2410 Leisure

"Of course, neither the empire nor Crimson Knights can do without each other. We still need their military help to maintain the current rapidly changing world situation. Of course, we will not violate the agreement with them without reason. If Crimson Knights has no changes or second thoughts in a short period of time and is willing to continue to serve the empire, of course His Majesty and I are willing to maintain our current relationship with them."

Bismark sighed and said something from his heart to Xiao Ran. Today's Britannia does not have much confidence to fall out with Crimson Knights. After all, there are still too many places that require Crimson Knights's force, especially now Crimson Knights's Corgi then took out a machine like Soul Reaver, and this machine also received praise from Lelouch·Knight Xiao, who was approved by Bismark. Bismark didn't have much confidence in Crimson Knights's hidden strength.

Now we can only hope to analyze and study Soul Reaver's technology as much as possible without actually dismembering Soul Reaver and then copy it. Of course, the Maintenance Technical Data that Xiao Ran threw to him can also play an important role in this, and in doing so, after Corgi took out Maintenance Technical Data, it was equivalent to having On behalf of Crimson Knights, Bismark was allowed to do this, but what Corgi said before, that if there is a major problem with the machine, it still has to be sent to Crimson Knights for repair, is also a warning to Bismark not to mess with Soul Reaver. Bismark knows how to master it.

But Bismark really didn't expect that Corgi would be so generous. Not only did he hand over the body, but he also handed over the maintenance technology for a convenient reason. This is not like the Corgi that Bismark knows. He also sighed and said, "But I didn't expect that Crimson Knights would actually hand over the Maintenance Technical Data of the machine. Although it is only a copy of Maintenance Technical Data, it is almost equivalent to one-third of the entire technology of the entire machine."

Xiao Ran did not answer when he heard what Bismark said. From his current position, it was impossible to answer anything, let alone say anything for Crimson Knights. As for what kind of answer Bismark wanted to get, it was most appropriate for this guy to think about it himself.

It's normal for Xiao Ran not to answer. Bismark didn't expect Xiao Ran to answer. Why did Crimson Knights suddenly become so generous? When he saw Xiao Ran, he just raised his head and faced After looking at Soul Reaver who had just driven back, he shook his head and smiled and said, "Perhaps it is also because your appearance made them feel the pressure, so they are also preparing to close the relationship with the empire. Let you become Knights of the Round. This is really the right thing to do."

"It's possible, but it's not just one aspect." Xiao Ran turned around and nodded lightly, and said, "After all, even if there is no machine body provided by Crimson Knights, once the new machine project developed by Area 11 is successful, it will give the empire the ability to manufacture higher-level machines. And by gathering all the research and development power of the entire country, it is only a matter of time to create a sufficiently powerful machine body."

"Today's Crimson Knights is still inseparable from the support and help of the empire. Even if it cannot affect the new machine project, they will also worry that the emergence of the new machine will affect their status. Moreover, there is someone like me who can press the button while driving the same level of machine. It is natural for them to feel pressure on those they beat. Making some appropriate changes is probably to express their stance to the empire and gain more support, and also to properly demonstrate their hidden strength. When our new machine is built, the empire must still pay attention to them."

Xiao Ran said these words from a very objective standpoint. Of course, he chose to say these words after Bismark started talking about it, so saying this now will not make Bismark feel that Xiao Ran said these words deliberately.

Bismark shook his head and thought that what Xiao Ran said was indeed very reasonable. He patted Xiao Ran on the shoulder and said, "Okay, do you want to go back with me, or are you prepared to stay with this machine for a while to get familiar with it before going back? Go, I will immediately send these things to His Majesty, and report today's events. Next, I will immediately form a technical preparation team for this Soul Reaver, and prepare for the next War Zone rotation. There are many things."

Xiao Ran looked at Soul Reaver and said, "I'd better go back with you. I'm not at ease with flying the machine I got from Crimson Knights like this. It's best to send someone to check the machine completely."

Bismark also looked at Soul Reaver and nodded. "It really should be checked."

Xiao Ran, who was riding in Bismark's car, followed him back to the city, but he did not go to the palace with Bismark to meet Charles. He got out of the car after being sent back to his place of residence, and then watched the car Bismark was riding in hurrying towards the palace, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Although Bismark seems to be very close to Xiao Ran now, in fact, this guy is Charles's loyal dog. He has the same purpose as Charles, but he just treats Xiao Ran is only used as a tool, a tool to check and balance Crimson Knights, and because of his Xiao Ran's strength and the importance of checking and balancing Crimson Knights, Bismark will do something to Xiao Ran behaves so friendly. Of course, aside from being a tool, in terms of strength alone, Bismark really needs to maintain good care with Xiao Ran. After all, Xiao Ran is strong enough and can become an empire. The most powerful force, but the current situation is just because of impure motives. Xiao Ran is not really regarded as a friend that is truly worthy of attention. The so-called friendship is just a disguise, and it is also a means of checking and balancing between Crimson Knights and Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran can naturally see Bismark's plan, but it doesn't matter. The so-called sugar-coated bullets are just eating the sugar-coated and spitting out the bullets. Now Bismark Being friendly is a good thing for Xiao Ran, but Bismark will never wait until the day when the cannonballs are exposed, and even if they can see the cannonballs, it will always be the time when the cannonballs fall on their heads.

Throw Soul Reaver's technical information to Bismark and indirectly give it to Charles, allowing the entire empire to gradually master Soul Reaver's information. Xiao Ran doesn't care, don't say it's just Maintenance Technical Data, even the complete Soul Reaver technical information Xiao Ran has in his hands, but he has never thought of developing a body like Soul Reaver, because Soul Reaver is not the most adaptable body to him.

And if the empire starts to develop the Soul Reaver series of aircraft, it will only be a dispensable thing for Xiao Ran. Being able to develop it will not bring anything to Xiao Ran. Failure to develop it will also not cause anything to Xiao Ran. Soul Reaver needs to do a lot of work to achieve mass production. Even if Britannia gathers the technical strength of the entire country, it will be very difficult. It is not as good as the new machine research and development project currently being carried out by Area 11. That is the aspect that Xiao Ran is really most concerned about.

But it doesn't matter if the empire really researches something. Anyway, the entire empire will fall into the hands of Xiao Ran and Lelouch in the end, and will eventually be passed on to Nanalie and Euphemia, so if something is really researched, it will only be researched for the ultimate beneficiary. It is difficult to say whether Corgi has such an idea. Anyway, the person who finally benefits will definitely not be Charles.

Xiao Ran then continued to stay in the capital for a period of time. During this period, in addition to being in public with other Knights of the Round Table when necessary, he also cooperated with the newly formed logistics department to conduct various tests on the Soul Slayer. After Charles obtained the skills of the Scarlet Knights, After receiving the technical information, he generously provided some materials and rewards to the Scarlet Knights. However, some of the rewards would not make them feel happy at all, such as money. Of course, there are also rewards that can excite them, such as women.

Then a brand new logistics department was established specifically for Soul Reaver. Under the label of logistics, it was indeed the work of the R&D department. There were hundreds of people. Each Tiandu studied Soul Reaver under certain restrictions. Xiao Ran was the designated pilot of Soul Reaver., and had to cooperate with the work of this group of Technicians during this period of time in the capital, and in the next long period of time, these personnel are expected to follow Xiao Ran and Soul Reaver to various different War Zone to continue their research work on Soul Reaver.

Apart from this, Xiao Ran basically had nothing else to do during his time in the capital. Unlike other Knights of the Round who already had a certain background in the empire, becoming Knights of the Round also grew up slowly and gradually. He more or less had his own guards and other forces, as well as his own background and mission areas he was responsible for.

But Xiao Ran suddenly became Knights of the Round and came to the capital. His roots and foundation are all in Area 11. He is not a powerful person, so he is dispensable in the imperial capital. Charles did not arrange any other tasks or work for Xiao Ran. He did not even mention that Xiao Ran should form his own escort team or Guard Force., and did not provide any other support or help, so apart from cooperating with the logistics work, Technology Department has nothing to do. It can be said that Knights of the Round is the most leisurely and low-key among all Knights of the Round in the empire today. The one rarely appeared in front of others. At most, he met with a few other Knights of the Round to learn about the current situation in each region under the auspices of Bismark, and he did not take the initiative to propose what he wanted to do.

In the eyes of Bismark and other Knights of the Round, Xiao Ran's current leisure time is also normal, because he spends a lot of time on Soul Reaver, which will naturally give others the illusion that Xiao Ran is now trying to get familiar with Soul Reaver, and there are many times when Soul Reaver During the actual operation test and data entry, other Knights of the Round and some people with certain status in the empire, related to the military and pilots, will also personally go to the base where Soul Reaver is now to watch the test of Soul Reaver, to determine the performance of Soul Reaver, and to learn more about the combat power that Xiao Ran can exert.

However, the test targets are basically some backward KF, tanks or helicopters. Using such targets for testing is difficult to truly reflect the powerful strength of Soul Reaver. In a real actual combat confrontation, in addition to letting Knights of the Round appear, ordinary people cannot compare Soul Reaver and. The strength of Xiao Ran is forced out, but this is completely unnecessary, so in the end, what is the true performance of Soul Reaver, and how powerful is Xiao Ran? For those who are paying attention to Soul Reaver and Xiao Ran, everything is just a mystery that is difficult to solve.

Some people are anxious to know the strength of Soul Reaver, but the Technology Department door responsible for Soul Reaver is very stable, because Soul Reaver is too precious, and I don't know when I will have the opportunity to get it from Crimson Knights next time. is building a machine body, so people who work on the Technology Department are waiting to fully understand the technical information and are doing extremely repetitive and very complicated technical work. They don't care what the outsiders think. They are steadily, meticulously and slowly deepening their familiarity with Soul Reaver.

Such days lasted for almost more than a month, and hundreds of Technicians had completed their preliminary work. The next step was to bring Soul Reaver and Xiao Ran to the real War Zone for actual testing.

In the past month, the situation around the empire has become more and more serious. Wars in various parts of the world have also begun to expand, and the frequency of battles has become higher and higher. It can be said that battles are taking place all the time in the entire world, and the world has begun to be shrouded in the shadow of war. Even in Britannia, the most powerful country's imperial capital, one can clearly feel the oppression of the war getting closer and closer, and And more importantly, the scale of the battle also began to increase, and more and more unknown powerful machines appeared. Even Crimson Knights, in order to maintain the current situation in the empire's border areas, also sent more personnel to War Zone at the request or request of Charles. Of course, it also obtained more Sakura Stone provided by the empire.

The chaos in the whole world is not typical. Even Area 11 has also seen many situations. Black Knights has also continued to appear several times, but it does not actively stir up trouble. It only appears when Area 11 is in chaos. Once it appears, it is like a real one. The same applies to third parties, whether they are rebel organizations planning battles and terrorist attacks, or the Area 11 garrison that sends out large-scale troops to suppress them, as long as their actions affect innocent people, Black Knights will definitely appear to attack both parties until the incident is completely resolved and then quietly retreat.
