Jeremiah and Villeta walked out of Xiao Ran's room. Villeta, who hadn't said a single word since the beginning, stopped Jeremiah, who was about to leave. She asked in a low voice, "Jeremiah, what are you thinking about? How did you become that stranger's disciple out of nowhere? Don't you think it's too much of a coincidence for such a person to appear after so many things have happened? "
Jeremiah stopped in his tracks and turned to Villeta. "Teacher's identity can be investigated later, but as long as he's a knight, there shouldn't be any problems with his identity. Besides, the person who sent him here isn't a simple person. This means that teacher's identity should be trustworthy."
"You know that's not what I mean." Villeta shook her head helplessly and said, "Are you really going to betray the Pureblood Faction?"
Villeta was tall, tanned, and had a cold and hot temperament. However, in Jeremiah's eyes, she was just a reliable subordinate and friend. He completely ignored her beauty and said calmly, "It's not that I want to betray the Pureblood Faction, but I want to leave. The Pureblood Faction no longer has room for me, but it's my duty to serve the royal family. The only difference is who I listen to. There's no difference between serving Prince Culovis and serving Princess Euphemia. Teacher is very strong, very strong. I want to become his disciple and learn how to become stronger. Only then can I wash away the shame that has stained my name."
"Besides, with the current situation, I do need someone to protect me from the storm."
Villeta looked at Jeremiah's serious face and took a deep breath. She covered her face with her hands and said, "Alright, what should I do next?"
"Gather all the subordinates that are trustworthy. From today onwards, we will fully support and fulfill all of Princess Euphemia's orders." Jeremiah paused for a moment and said, "Actually, you don't have to follow me. If you aren't prepared to fight against your comrades in the Pureblood Faction, you can go back to the Pureblood Faction."
"Don't you think it's too late to say that?" Villeta looked at Jeremiah helplessly and said, "Don't forget that I'm your subordinate. When I chose to leave with you, I already made up my mind. It's just that I'm not used to the sudden change of identity from the Pureblood Faction to another faction."
In the Empire's military, the largest faction was, without a doubt, the pureblood faction. This faction promoted the supremacy of the Royal Family, despised all non-Britarians, and insisted that the Britarian bloodline was the noblest. They had always dominated the military, and even among the non-military Britarian nobles, most of them had the same stance as this faction.
However, apart from the Pureblood Faction, there were also people with other factions in the Empire. For example, Euphemia hoped that the numbered areas could live in harmony and allow the people in the numbered areas to live a better life. However, in the entire Empire's social class, there were very few such people. Some even didn't have any factions, and the Empire wouldn't allow such factions to exist.
The Empire had always allowed people to sympathize with them and give them a better life. If that wasn't the case, there wouldn't be any honorary Buttarians. Therefore, the Empire wouldn't interfere with the governance of the numbered areas. However, they wouldn't allow the existence of factions to unite against the Emperor's authority. The core of the Empire must follow the Emperor's ideology.
Villeta expressed her stance to Jeremiah. As a soldier of the Empire and loyal to the Empire, Villeta was very willing to stand on Jeremiah's side and pledge loyalty to Euphemia. Although she was suspected of being a fence-sitter, wasn't it her duty to be loyal to the royal family?
Jeremiah and Villeta both left, but before they left, they glanced at the closed door of Xiao Ran's room. They didn't know what Loide and Xiao Ran were talking about.
In Xiao Ran's room, after Jeremiah and Villeta left, Loide couldn't wait to ask, "Now that the troublemakers are gone, Mr. Xiao, can you tell me what you think about the new body and Lancelot?"
"Don't worry about that." Xiao Ran waved his hand and said, "Lancelot's body should be considered the seventh generation in terms of generation. Then, are all the countries and forces, including the Empire, ready to mass produce this seventh generation body? Is it possible for Lancelot to be replicated in the current 11th District? Also, is the industrial structure in the 11th District able to support mass production or customization of the seventh generation body? Is it possible to produce the eighth generation body or a completely new one?"
After hearing Xiao Ran's words, Loide habitually narrowed his eyes and said, "The seventh generation body is a new series that all the countries are secretly developing, but so far, I haven't heard of any forces that have actually developed the seventh generation body, so Lancelot should be the pioneer of the seventh generation body. We can't rule out the possibility that other countries have already developed the seventh generation body and are testing it."
"As for mass production, I'm sorry, but even the most powerful empire doesn't have the ability to mass produce the seventh generation body. The cost is too high, and they can't even manufacture it on a small scale. Currently, Lancelot isn't perfect, so it's impossible to mass produce it. But if you want to mass produce a small part of it, you should be able to do it with enough resources in the 11th district. However, the resources, manpower, and materials needed will be huge. Currently, the Lancelot is the limit of my authority, so I need more support to achieve this goal."
"As for the production of a completely new body structure, as long as there are people, resources, and equipment, it's not impossible for it to be produced in the 11th District. However, the type of equipment used also needs to be coordinated, and this also requires the support of the higher-ups. I don't care what you want to do, but if you want to secretly produce a completely new body structure, it's almost impossible."
Loide was very smart, and had already seen through Xiao Ran's idea, which was to secretly manufacture a body that belonged only to Xiao Ran. However, with Loide's authority, it was impossible to do such a thing, and Loide didn't hide anything and said these words.
Xiao Ran nodded lightly and glanced at Loide, "It seems that you've understood. You're very smart, and I've always agreed that there's no need to hide anything when talking to smart people."
Lloyd shrugged and said nonchalantly, "The only thing I care about is completing Lancelot's mission. However, after meeting you, I hope to be able to create the strongest mech with my label on it. I hope that a pilot as strong as you will be able to unleash the full potential of the strongest mech. I also think that you need my help."
"As for why you want to secretly manufacture a new body, or what you want to do with this body, it's not something that a technician like me should care about. Although it's dangerous to ask a tiger for its skin, as long as I'm valuable, I'm safe. At the same time, I can also obtain certain benefits. I just don't know if your interests are the same as Queen Euphemia's, and I don't want to become a traitor of the Empire."
Loide was very direct, too direct, but he was also very smart. He directly said everything, and it seemed that he wasn't worried that Xiao Ran would kill him. After all, many people knew that he came here, and if something happened to him, Xiao Ran would definitely not be able to escape responsibility. He could even pull Xiao Ran onto his chariot, or tie the two together, and use Xiao Ran's power to complete the Lancelot and create a stronger body.
Xiao Ran smiled. "Interesting. Then, are your interests the same as Queen Euphemia's?"
Loide said with a smile. "I think my interests are the same as those who have greater benefits, who can let me achieve my goals and share the benefits at the same time. However, I'm more of a technician, and I care more about whether I can come into contact with more technology, and then create it with my own hands."
Xiao Ran laughed. "Then I think our goals and interests should be the same, and also the same as Queen Euphemia's. Although there may be many obstacles in the process, with your help, I can easily kick away any obstacles with my strength."
"However, if I want to accomplish Queen Euphemia's goals, then I'll have a fundamental conflict of interest with Prince Schonetzel. Major Loide's family seems to be a famous family that publicly supports Schonetzel, so it seems like there's an irreconcilable conflict between us."
Loide's eyebrows couldn't help but twitch twice. He laughed lightly and said in a relaxed manner, "That's right. Although my family is a public supporter of Schonetzel, I'm not. Even though Schonetzel and I used to be classmates, we're just ordinary friends. The only things I'm loyal to and interested in are technology and the highest authority of the Empire."
Xiao Ran asked in return, "So you're saying that if I tell you my goal is to kill the Emperor, then you'll probably contact others to report me after you leave this door for the sake of your loyalty to the highest authority?"
Loide chuckled. "Of course not, because I know that's just a joke."
Xiao Ran looked deeply at Loide, nodded lightly, and said, "If we want to cooperate, then we need to trust each other. Although I'm more inclined to gain your loyalty, it seems like now's not the time. I might as well tell you, my goal is to push another princess that isn't valued at all to the position of Emperor."
"But after getting to know Euphemia, I've also been moved by this girl's kindness. Who said this country can't have two queens? If there are two rulers, these two kind-hearted girls can relax a bit. With this goal in mind, no matter who gets in my way, I'll kick them away without hesitation. At the same time, I want to rope in a group of people around me."
Loide's eyes flickered twice. He chuckled and said, "A new Britannia Empire with two queens. That's quite interesting, and it seems like this is only an internal dispute within the Empire. However, if you want me to stand on your side, then a mere cooperation isn't enough. So, what are you going to use to rope me in next?"
"Of course it's something you like the most." Xiao Ran slowly pulled out his personal terminal and placed it on the table in front of the two of them. After casually pressing a button, a ray of light shot out, instantly forming 5 special airframes that were half the height of a person. A similarly special airframe appeared in front of Loide's eyes.
Loide's eyes suddenly lit up. "Is this a holographic interactive image? How can such a small terminal be able to do this? "
Xiao Ran pointed at the 5 airframes and the airframe. "The point isn't the image, but the things in the image."
The 5 airframes were of course the G-series airframes from the SEED world. The airframe was the standard VF-17 airframe used by the Fleet World Unified Army. In Xiao Ran's opinion, this was the airframe that was the easiest to manufacture with the current technical ability of Area 11 and Loide. Of course, it wasn't of much use to Xiao Ran. However, as long as he understood the technology of the G-series airframe, it should be barely enough to manufacture a higher-level Freedom Gundam or even a Freedom Gundam.
Without relying on other special technologies, among the airframes that had a complete development sequence and technology from the beginning to the end, only the SEED series airframe could be manufactured in the shortest time. As for the other airframes, it would be much more troublesome.
Xiao Ran said, "Using brand new materials, skeleton structure, energy output method, weapons, and completely different from KF's brand new series of mecha. Everything has to be completely overhauled. I think you should be interested in this."
"The technology is complete?" Loide's eyes lit up. He stared at the flashing information and technical information on the holographic image and asked, "Has this type of airframe been developed? What kind of force developed it!? "
"This is the complete technology that has been verified countless times. Through the calculations, as long as the industry can meet the technical requirements, these airframes can be directly manufactured. High vibration blades and whatnot aren't worth mentioning. Beam weapons are the next step of development. Beam sabers, beam rifles, a single airframe like this is enough to face off against the KF of an entire army. Furthermore, the special armor that it is equipped with will allow it to completely ignore live ammunition as long as it has enough energy."
