Chapter 68 Power outage and new recruits
"Troublesome guy, it seems like I made a mistake making a deal with him."
At dawn, Olan woke up on time and then rubbed his head.
It's not because of fatigue. Because of Olan's special dream ability, his body can always get the best rest. The dream clone will not bring back the tiredness, but the experience in the dream will not disappear, so Olan needs a certain amount of rest. Time to digest this stuff.
Yesterday, he just punched all night long.
Nowadays, Seti has lost his bronze-fingered tiger and relies on a pair of "black fists" to beat others to their knees in the black boxing ring every day.
Based on the difference in time flow and Seti's progress, Oran felt that next time he saw Seti, this kid might have to cultivate his full body armor color.
Olan's rest time was relatively fixed, and it was still dark at this time, so he casually pulled the light cord of the bedside lamp.
snap
The rope made a sound, but the lamp did not light up.
"The quality of the stuff from the Navy Headquarters is really bad."
At this time, Olan didn't realize there was any problem. He simply thought there was something wrong with the lamp, until he discovered that everything using electricity in the room seemed to have problems.
"Fran, what did you do last night?"
In addition to the patrols on the street outside, you can also see the navy holding toolboxes to repair equipment. Thinking of Frankenstein's ability and character, Olan has already guessed something.
"Rest, eat, nothing else."
Frankenstein answered truthfully. For Frankenstein, eating is equal to recharging. With her physical condition, eating ordinary food not only cannot replenish energy, but also consumes extra energy to process them.
According to Frankenstein's somewhat stingy character, it would be impossible for him to take the initiative to eat meaningless food.
Energy is the special food that Frankenstein needs. This short-circuit situation is very similar to the situation that occurred on the MADS research ship.
Free electricity seemed to her like an opportunity to freeload.
"How long have you been charging?"
"The whole night, the power went out before it was fully charged."
Because the Navy Headquarters is an important military town, the circuit design is divided into regions. Damage in one area will not affect the whole. The Navy should be grateful for this design, otherwise they will know today what the consequences of an island-wide blackout will be.
The core of Frankenstein is not an ordinary battery, but the Hex Crystal plus the Storage Fruit. When these two things are fused together, it can be called a bottomless pit, and as time goes by, the difficulty of charging is ever increasing.
One day, Frankenstein's battery may be as difficult to charge as it is to charge a phone bill.
It is good that the Navy headquarters has electricity for people to use. In this sea, high-power electrical appliances are a rare thing, but Oran and the others left a mystery.
For a long time, no one at the Navy Headquarters could figure out what kind of power-consuming items Olan had on him.
"Speaking of Fran's habit, we need to consider the power of the power station in the future."
Oran added another note to his plan. Although he doesn't have his own territory yet, he is just doing corresponding research at the place prepared by Feld.
But this is only temporary. According to Olan's plan, after this incident is over, he will prepare to move to a suitable island to build his own base.
"Will there be oil in Alabasta?"
When Oran was looking for a suitable area on the sea map, he happened to see the desert country of Alabasta. Compared with most countries, the territory here is very vast, and there may be a lot of untapped resources hidden in it. .
There is no mold in this place, and most countries have no idea of developing oil resources. If there is oil, then this desert will be a natural cornucopia.
Malinfando's logistics work was still able to keep up, and the circuits in this area were repaired soon, but by this time it was already dawn, and several warships began to approach Malinfando.
The number of people carried by warships also varies depending on the model. Large warships can carry as few as 800 people and as many as more than a thousand people. Subtle adjustments will be made according to the actual situation and mission objectives.
The different markings on the sails meant that the warships came from different branches, and these were the ones who were supposed to arrive days ago.
Military doctors who were preparing to study, wounded soldiers with special conditions, soldiers who were about to be awarded medals and promoted, and recruits who had recently joined the army, there were more people in the square.
The most eye-catching thing about these people is Mitt, who is equipped with a metal arm and some unruly recruits.
Mitte is a typical example created by the World Government some time ago, so it is understandable that he is more famous, but people's attention is more on Mitte's arm.
"Is he the Mitte with the iron arm? I heard that the entire hand is made of machinery, and it is exactly the same as a real hand."
"Why do you have to wear a bandage on a prosthetic hand? It doesn't make any sense."
"Whatever, it may be a personal habit. Can newspapers still lie to people? I heard that he killed a pirate with a bounty of 50 million with that hand."
"Fifty million? Is it so powerful? I don't remember it being this number."
"You must have remembered it wrong."
A group of people kept whispering, and the thin sounds also reached Mitt's ears. This kind of words can't make Mitt feel any mood swings at all now. He has long been used to it.
When he was in the branch before, he asked questions to his familiar colleagues every day, and he almost took the prosthesis apart to see the structure.
"It looks very powerful, don't you think, Sakaski?"
Mitt's arm also attracted the interest of many recruits. Generally, recruits do not need to come to the Navy Headquarters. Usually they stay in the branch where they sign up.
Even if they graduate from the Naval Academy, not all soldiers waiting for the headquarters to be assigned will come here.
Those who can be sent here by warships are the best recruits from all over the country.
The person who was speaking at this time was wearing a white vest and a yellow short-sleeved shirt. His orange-yellow sunglasses made it difficult to see his eyes. Except for the words "Navy" on his melon-shaped hat, it was impossible to tell that he was a recruit. It would be better to say that he looked more like a street kid now.
His name is Borsalino, 26 years old this year, a monster newly recruited by the Navy. The local branch no longer has the ability to teach him, so he was sent to the headquarters in the hope that he would receive a better education.
On the recruit ship, he met a person who was quite talkative-Sakaski.
He wears a standard navy cap and the same red short-sleeved shirt as Borsalino. A flower-like tattoo can be seen on his left chest, and a sword is on his back.
He is only 23 years old this year, but like Borsalino, he is called a monster rookie.
"He lost his original arm and is still fighting on the front line. He is a respectable soldier."
"You are still so serious. I am not talking about him, but the arm. It is said that it was invented by the winner of the last Ibel Medical Award. It is said that it was because of that arm that he was promoted to colonel smoothly."
"Why haven't I heard about this news?"
"Maybe you are too serious. No one dares to talk to you."
"Is that so? This is a meaningful invention.
It would be better if there were more inventors like this, so that justice can be implemented more thoroughly."
