On the other side of the earth, it was dawn!
Holy Britannia Empire, the capital of Pandora. In contrast to the warm and humid climate of the capital, which was surrounded by mountains on three sides, close to the Lai River, and had several rivers flowing into its borders, Pandora, which was located in a dry and hot desert, was unusually cold in winter.
With the annexation of the Lower East Continent three years ago, Britain's national power had risen to another level. Although these newly added colonies had not yet been completely stabilized, with the army's several plundering of this fertile land, an endless stream of wealth instantly filled the country's pockets.
The big river was rising, and the small river was full! As the country became rich, the wealth of the ordinary people naturally rose. For the Britons who had tasted the sweetness, the 98th Emperor of the Empire, Charles Di Britania, who had brought them wealth, status, and the dignity of a great country, was a great hero. As a result, not only did the people of the country spontaneously erect statues for him, but the nobles also sang praises of him as the greatest emperor in the history of the empire. His fame even surpassed that of the first founding emperor.
In the palace of Pandraenor, the great emperor in the eyes of the people was holding a newborn baby in the Aries Palace. As a father with many children, Charles was not an easy father to get close to. Even though he was carrying the son of his most beloved princess consort, his serious face could not change in the slightest.
The baby in his arms had a pair of deep purple eyes and fair skin like his mother.
" Let's name it 'Lelouch VI Britania'," Charles said seriously as he looked at the baby.
Mariana, who was lying on the bed to recuperate, said,""Thank you for the name, Your Majesty. This child will definitely not be ordinary in the future.”
"En, then that's it! It's been hard on you this time, Mary." He handed the baby to the maid and said gently to Mariana with a serious face.
Mariana heard Charles 'concern and smiled." It's nothing compared to His Majesty.”
"Alright, Mary, rest in peace! I'll leave the research lab to Bismarck for now.”
“yesmylord！”
The news of Princess Mariana giving birth to the 11th prince spread throughout the palace, making the other concubines of the emperor jealous. One had to know that although Charles had many descendants, most of them were princesses. It could be seen how glorious it was to be able to give birth to a prince for His Majesty.
However, this time, it was actually that lowly woman from a commoner's background. She relied on her looks to charm His Majesty. It had been a long time since the other imperial concubines had received His Majesty's favor! Now that the slut had a prince, the position of the Aries Palace was even more stable.
No matter how much the outside world was talking about it, the 11th prince of the empire was lying in the arms of a wet nurse, sucking his first mouthful of milk since he came to this world. No one would have thought that this child would bring endless trouble to the British Empire in the future.
In a remote corner of the capital, there was a secret military base. In a research institute deep in the base, a tall, middle-aged man with long blue hair was led by a researcher to a machine.
Although it was called a machine, it was like a human-shaped skeleton made of steel. Dense wires were exposed, and various instruments and equipment were emitting bursts of buzzing sounds. At this moment, this iron lump was moving slowly like a human under the activation of the motor.
Bismarck looked at the nearly four-meter-tall thing and couldn't think of any connection between it and a weapon.""Is this the new weapon that Her Highness secretly developed?”
"Yes, Your Excellency the First Knight! This was a prototype that was based on the medical machine Ganymede. Due to the urgency of Her Highness, the research team had used the existing equipment and materials to temporarily assemble this experimental product. Although it looked like it now, once it was completely perfected, it would change the mode of human warfare.”The researchers at the side stared at the humanoid robot that was still in the verification stage and said excitedly.
Bismarck looked at the metal lump speechlessly. For a moment, he couldn't help but doubt Mariana, who was in confinement. For a soldier who had spent half of his life in the military, a weapon's quality wasn't something that could be boasted about. It had to be tested in various actual battles. In fact, in his eyes, the Empire should put more effort into traditional weapons such as fighter planes, tanks, and artillery. After all, after seeing the new weapons and equipment of the Great Ming Dynasty, he truly realized the gap between them in this aspect.
After a series of dismantling, surveying, and studying the Ming weapons that were completely seized by the dynasty, they were surprised to find that these weapons were superior to the dynasty in terms of design and manufacturing. Especially the tank codenamed Leopard Three in the Federation. After personally driving it, Bismarck was full of praise for this kind of tank that was simple to manufacture, sturdy and durable, and easy to be installed on a large scale. After all, the Empire had only risen for a few decades. In terms of land and air, there was indeed an unavoidable gap between them and the other two countries.
At this time, the researcher said," In fact, we considered that the Empire would not be able to compete with Great Ming in terms of traditional weapons in a short period of time, so Her Highness Mariana decided to develop this new type of equipment. Sir Knight, think about it. Once this weapon has four limbs that are as flexible as humans, coupled with the defense and firepower that ordinary soldiers can't compare to, what will happen?”
"Of course, there will be a one-sided massacre. If it is in the city, it can even replace the position of tanks in the army.”The researcher's words made Bismarck's eyes light up.
"Your Excellency is wise, and the types of weapons it can carry far exceed all current land-based vehicles. Its current weakness was that the current computer speed could not achieve the various difficult movements of the weapon, such as quickly dodging various threats and reacting to the enemy when necessary.”
After listening to the researcher's explanation, Bismarck asked,""Then how strong can its defense be? Can its speed offset the powerful firepower of a tank in battle?”
"In terms of defense, it can probably ignore the direct fire of heavy machine guns, but it's probably useless against 20mm caliber cannons. As for tanks, that would depend on the specific combat environment!”The other party shrugged helplessly.
"It's not enough. The defense still needs to be strengthened. At least the cockpit needs to be able to withstand cannon fire. At the same time, it also had to have an injection device like a fighter jet to increase the survival rate of the personnel.”
"Then let's try our best!"
"I'll leave it to you then. Whether our Great British Empire can dominate the world will depend on you!”Bismarck solemnly shouted at the experts.
“yesmylord！”
At the same time, thousands of miles away in Japan, in a high-class hospital in Tokyo.
The Xuanwu held a baby in his arms and said to the woman on the bed,"Let's call it the Pinnacle Vermilion Bird! I hope this child will have extraordinary achievements in the future…"
