Girls' Frontline: My Apocalypse with Dolls

Page 306

"No, this pain is unavoidable; ultimately, this is not a drug intended for living beings..."

"How the hell am I supposed to know?!"

Finally, unable to contain himself, Luo Fan roared out.

But after that roar, he was stunned. He had clearly controlled his emotions, so why couldn't he still...?

"Sigh, I know you're tormented by this right now, but believe me, I will heal you. Until then, I need you to do as I say. For example, right now, control your emotions. Don't get too angry or too sad, if you don't want the final result to become irreversible."

......

"Go on, I'm listening."

After a brief moment of thought, Luo Fan shook his head and chose to calm down and listen to the other person's description.

After all, most of what she said was correct, and it didn't have any negative impact on her.

Perhaps I need to change my perspective a little, and adjust my attitude towards the other party...

The brief silence may have been Rosalia giving Lovan time to adjust himself.

After a long pause, she spoke again: "That reverse Kabbalah factor, you obtained it from some electronic device, right?"

"......right."

It was this tablet that gave him the opportunity to get to where he is today. This tablet has been a huge help, except for the reverse Kabbalah factor, which has brought him side effects.

“Be careful,” Rosalia said, taking a quick sip of water. “That device is no ordinary thing. It carries things beyond your imagination, allowing you to store and retrieve items, and all sorts of other functions. These aren’t just figments of your imagination; they are inherent to this device. Similarly, it shouldn’t be a product of this era. The device in your hand is merely a vessel. The true entity within it has not yet awakened. As you enhance yourself through this device and increase the frequency of its use, you will come to understand its true nature.”

At this point, a clattering sound came from the other end of the phone; she had finished speaking at this stage, which greatly shocked Luo Fan.

How does she even know about this tablet...?

How much does she really know...?

A few beads of sweat slowly trickled down, landing on the man's arm, whether from the lingering warmth of the pain or from surprise at the current level of intelligence, it was hard to tell.

"who are you?"

Now, Luo Fan wants to know the answer to this question even more...

“I am who I am,” she replied. “I am Rosalia, and I have existed to serve you ever since the reverse Kabbalah factor flowed into your body.”

"why?"

"Because you are no longer an ordinary person, you will become a higher existence, and at the same time, you will be the form that Umbrella has always dreamed of. You have reached a height that they have not been able to reach even after decades of effort. All of this is thanks to the reverse Kabbalah factor."

Lofan was skeptical of this claim. He didn't think there was anything special about the reverse Kabbalah factor; it was just an increase in muscle strength. Umbrella's biological weapons were far more advanced.

At least, he didn't sense any other more noticeable changes...

“How can I believe what you say?” Luo Fan asked.

Rosalia immediately replied, "That's why I don't tell you everything. You can only believe it and take action after you see it for yourself. I only need to tell you what to do in the short term, and the rest is up to you."

The howling outside the window intensified, causing the window to rattle and bang. Caught between reality and speculation, Luo Fan began to doubt his own steps.

"Remember to control your emotions. If you feel any signs of irritability, that's normal, and you must control yourself..."

"Whether it is divine protection or corruption and distortion, it depends on you."

......

The call had already ended, and Luo Fan swallowed his remaining questions.

He received two new concepts: divine preparation and distortion, but he still had no information about them. He only knew that he needed to control his emotions.

And that tablet—Rosalia knew something about it and reminded herself not to underestimate "her."

Rosalia referred to the tablet as "she..."

So how should I view this tablet now? I've always used it as a handy tool...

It looks like I'll have to create a clue wall soon, summarizing the information Rosalia has provided so far, and also connecting our current partners with our adversaries...

The current state has almost recovered, and it's time to go back to the storeroom. The next one after 74M is also an AR doll, and it's only been eleven minutes since 74M was built. It should be time by now.

It must be said that the medicine is indeed very effective. At least Luo Fan has now regained his mobility, and the pain has been suppressed to an acceptable level.

The next step is to control your emotions, something Luo Fan is confident about; after all, he's a man of many masks...

You always need to get into character to better embody the role you're playing...

If you understand the setting of the Ruins Library, then no further explanation is needed.

Current stage setup summary and analysis. 1

Current setup summary:

The protagonist's current plan includes the following arrangements...

He, along with AR, 404, the Rebellion Squad, and several androids, entered the quarantine zone to gather intelligence about Umbrella and cooperate with Godfather Williams to make money. While ensuring there were reserve funds in case of an economic crisis, they also disrupted the original price range of the market to a certain extent within the limits allowed by the market.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Grey, a key figure in this business battle, will begin to ramp up drug development efforts after the protagonist's conversation with Tom at the Williams mansion. She will strive to provide high-quality, large-scale new drugs in a short period of time and win the market bidding for the next two years.

Meanwhile, as time went on, it began to slowly disrupt the drug market, gradually changing Umbrella's monopoly into a two-way competition. More details will not be disclosed for now.

Meanwhile, Tom Cruise begins to establish his family, making money and building a reputation while secretly spreading information to other factions about their close ties with Grey Biotechnology Corporation. He protects Mrs. Grey while fully cooperating with the protagonist and others in their work.

The most important issue is reputation. The rise of these two forces will change the landscape of Wall Street's business circle. Moreover, one side has acquired a large amount of gold, while the other controls the lifeline of pharmaceuticals (although Umbrella is not one to be trifled with).

Meanwhile, a casino was established, jointly operated by Grina and a humanoid, with some Scythe-blooded humanoids providing security. Their goals were similar to those of their family: to make money, disrupt market order, and spread their reputation.

This place is under the protection of Tom Cruise and 16 Pigeons, so Grina will cause a lot of trouble inside.

This is the protagonist's current general plan.

There were more plans to come; the protagonist's ideas were even more outrageous than anyone imagined, and he even went so far as to make New York independent to some extent.

I won't reveal the details, you can read on to find out (of course, this White Eagle is definitely not real, there's no way to fight him, after all, it's still a novel).

......

Then there are the protagonist's several teammates whose identities are currently unknown.

Several from the Otherworld Agency (more to come)

Rosalia is confirmed as an absolute ally, tasked with assisting the protagonist's actions and helping him survive the adverse effects of the Reverse Kabbalah Factor. Her relationship with Sena and Negitia is so-so. Sena fears Rosalia's existence, and Negitia is forced to avoid Rosalia as well. However, Rosalia has little interest in them, and when she discovers that the two share the same feelings for the protagonist, she coerces Sena into assisting the protagonist's actions.

Rosalia is closely related to the Reverse Kabbalah Factor. This factor is not a product of artificial experiments, but a substance that exists in this world like a fossil. It has an extremely strong corrosive ability on humans. The fishermen mentioned earlier who died mysteriously in Sakura Empire died from the corrosive effect of this factor.

The reverse Kabbalah factor used by the protagonist is a product that has been mixed, suppressed, and diluted in various ways. However, it is still an unimaginable substance for Umbrella and humans. During the process of fusing with cells, this factor will gradually kill and replace the original cells, while comprehensively enhancing various parts of the biological skeleton. However, this does not mean that ingesting the reverse Kabbalah factor will make one stronger as long as one survives the side effects period.

P.S.: Too many words will incur a charge, so I'll publish it in separate posts.

Current stage setup summary and analysis. 2

Divine preparation and distortion are two different concepts. To give a simple example, consider the Ugly Duckling. If the Ugly Duckling chooses to believe in the future after experiencing hardships and obstacles, and that it will become a beautiful swan, then it becomes a white swan and is divinely prepared. However, if it feels hopeless because of the hardships and obstacles and believes that it is a complete failure, then it becomes a black swan, which is distorted. (Actually, the actual setting of the library is more complex than this, but I will simplify it here.) Moreover, the black swan is just an example; the distorted forms actually look quite bizarre.

It's not that divine preparation is good and distortion is bad; it's just that everyone's life and way of dealing with the world are different. Like the worldview in the library, there is no good or evil, only endless helplessness. One thing at a time.

Normal humans could not possibly accept the intake of reverse Kabbalah factors. The protagonist survived only because of Rosalia's constant intervention; otherwise, he would have died during the first episode.

Even the reverse Kabbalah factor comes in many forms, and the one the protagonist possesses is only one of them, which is related to Rosalia.

Following that, the Philharmonic Orchestra, featuring Senna, Nekitija (coming soon), and Carmen (coming soon).

They are a renowned orchestra at the National Centre for the Performing Arts in New York, and a regular performer at major venues and in high society.

Their music possesses a certain terrifying power; at least for humans, not all music is pleasing to them...

Shina was the first to approach the protagonist and show her intention to cooperate. And that was indeed the case. Because of the reverse Kabbalah factor, they could also sense the existence of this substance. To put it bluntly, anyone who can sense this substance is not a normal person. Rosalia, Shina, Negitia, and Ethel were no exception.

PS: Okay, my bad, I didn't know I had to stop writing after 1000 words.

Current stage setup summary and analysis. 3

They can also be identified as allies, and Nektia is an important character later on. Remember the poll I posted? Can you accept several children with different mothers? Think about the rest yourself.

Ethel, Rosalia's friend, shares the same goal as Rosalia, but the two were originally on opposing sides. However, for unknown reasons, they chose to cooperate and assist the protagonist's actions, thus confirming that they are allies.

As mentioned in the text, she is a gentle and refined woman, and like her words and actions, she is very mysterious, with little information about her. However, something terrifying is hidden in her coat...

The balance of gains and losses is not a matter of the original setting; just read what I'm writing. It will also become one of the protagonist's strongest trump cards later on.

......

Next, let's talk about the multi-world anime crossover mentioned by a reader.

I can say with certainty that it's not a crossover of multiple worlds; it's just this one world.

However, the world order will change dramatically, with new crises and new opportunities emerging simultaneously. The protagonist and the girls will face many challenges, and the reverse Kabbalah factor will also give them more opportunities.

With ship girls and dolls, plus a few allies with scarce information, the protagonist can go even further.

At this stage, it can be revealed that the future world view will be a combination of "Otherworld Agency" and "Library of Ruins" (containing a small amount of lobular lobe).

To reiterate, this is not a crossover between multiple worlds; it is only this world. The so-called superpowers are not cultivation techniques or magic. Everything is something that already exists in this world. It is both a gift and a disaster, and only a small number of people have noticed it now.

And some people are inherently connected to the reverse Kabbalah factor...

That tablet wasn't just an ordinary operating system.

Okay, to be clear, the world after this isn't Star Wars or Six Meridians Divine Sword; it's still a technological clash, and inevitably, the tech tree will go astray. The protagonist even brings out armored trains again.

It's a bit retro, but also a bit high-tech.

The reverse Kabbalah factor grants them abilities that ordinary people cannot achieve.

I won't reveal more; just read on. This post is simply a summary of the current intelligence.

As for the book title, changing the title of the contract would require amending the contract, and as a high school student, I neither have the time nor the interest to spend on that. I just want to write whenever I have some free time.

That's all for now. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask, and I'll be happy to answer them.

450 MCX and Lightning

P.S.: I recommend playing "Like Sunday, Like Rain" by Ed Harcourt below. For a rare moment of leisure, some relaxing and quiet music is quite nice.

Having adjusted his state, Luo Fan tidied up his clothes again and returned to the storage room.

Just before entering, I heard an extremely terrifying laugh.

He was certain that this didn't belong to any of 79, JS9, or 74M. There was only one possibility: the construction was complete, and they had brought that guy out first...

Taking a deep breath to make himself look more energetic than he actually was, Luo Fan pushed open the door and strode towards the girls in front of the counter.

He wanted to say hello, but the familiar image, almost etched into his brain, stood between them, holding a deck of cards, looking every bit the happy person reunited with an old friend.

"Hey, this isn't commanding... Ah!!!"

Luo Fan rushed forward and, before the other could react, grabbed her head, and then...

He slapped her hard on the buttocks.

"You were the one who pulled it more than ten times when I first got into this game, right? You were the one who liked to pull it, right?! You liked to pull it?!"

"No, no! I was wrong, Commander!!!"

SIG MCX, a pink-haired cow, likes to play poker and considers herself a kind and upright police officer. Her strength is decent, but the problem is that when Luo Fan first started playing, she single-handedly brought the pollution of the card pool to its extreme, making Luo Fan pull her more than ten times.

"Damn it, this is infuriating..."

Having finally gotten a chance to vent, Luo Fan naturally had to take the opportunity to teach her a lesson and let her know who was in charge here.

"Ouch..." MCX's playing cards scattered all over the floor, but he used both hands to cover his buttocks, which had been attacked by Luo Fan. There was no way around it; Luo Fan had indeed been quite ruthless this time.

79 crouched down and carefully poked the spot on MCX where Luo Fan had hit it.

"Um, are you alright?"

"How could nothing be wrong?!"

Judging from the fact that she was lying face down on the ground, it certainly wasn't a good look...

Luo Fan showed no remorse whatsoever, plopping down on the bench that was originally his, his eyes full of mockery.

"Emmm...Commander?"

JS9 patted Luo Fan on the shoulder, turned around, and saw Luo Fan standing behind him with 74M, their eyes filled with concern and worry.

Are you alright?

Luo Fan was taken aback at first, then smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing, I'm perfectly fine."

Surprisingly, 74M didn't leave immediately, but chose to stay here with them...
