Chapter 633: Dossier Update

~6 min read 1,094 words

The core area has been secured, Commander. Should we continue expanding the search area now?

On Qin Ge's command ship, Enterprise asked Qin Ge.

Qin Ge smiled and shook his head. "Not urgent for now; we wait for news."

"Huh?" Not only Enterprise was stunned; the others were also somewhat surprised.

After several battles, we are far from exhausted; although the fights were quite perilous, overall we have still won.

If we pursued aggressively now, we would surely achieve greater results, but Qin Ge has decided to pause for now, which surprised everyone.

"Commander, why?" Weineituo asked.

Qin Ge smiled and said, "Since we began concentrated operations, haven't you noticed anything? Having abandoned our base and rushed to the front line to annihilate the Siren outpost, what about Bismarck and her companions stationed on Saipan Island?"

"Do you mean they are no longer defending Saipan Island, but instead, like us, have carried out an oceanic strike?" Enterprise exclaimed in surprise.

Qin Ge nodded and then shook his head. "I'm not sure, because my order to them was that we need to go to the open sea to destroy the Siren outpost; this operation carries danger, but I also fear that all of this might be a Siren plot, so I let them make their own judgments and then act."

So I currently don't know their whereabouts—perhaps behind us, perhaps ahead—but one thing is certain: they will definitely do something even I couldn't imagine.

"The initiative?" Prince Eugen smiled. "Suddenly I'm curious—how will they act?"

I'm also quite curious—what unexpected events could Bismarck, Emperor Frederick, and the special operations team of Akagi and Kaga possibly produce?' Soviet Russia said with a smile.

"So we're just going to temporarily recuperate inside this Siren outpost?" Weineituo asked.

Qin Ge nodded. "One could say that, aside from the two entrances, this Siren outpost has no other significant defensive weaknesses; as long as we guard the two main gates, we can fully station here temporarily."

Moreover, the outpost's facilities remain intact—didn't Helena and her team go to search? Let's see if there's any other gain.

"Alright, I'll go make the arrangements." After Qin Ge said that, Enterprise immediately responded, turning to arrange temporary anchorage at sea.

Not long after, Helena lived up to expectations, finding some useful items in the core and also discovering two special dossiers.

On Qin Ge's command ship, the fleet's leaders all gathered around the table, looking at the dossier projected onto the tabletop.

"Social Data: Concealed Action." Qin Ge read slowly. "It seems similar to the previous dossier on the Tunguska explosion, but the appearance of the Ocean Federation and the Front Line Front makes these names rather interesting."

"Commander, in your world, do you have entities corresponding to these two factions?" Enterprise asked.

Qin Ge pondered for a moment, then said slowly, "According to this document, the Ocean Federation is clearly centered on the White Eagle, while the Advance Front is clearly centered on the Northern Union."

These two factions in my world correspond to the United States of America and the Soviet Union, and they indeed formed two organizational alliances.

One is named the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, abbreviated NATO; the other is named the Warsaw Treaty Organization, abbreviated Warsaw Pact.

These two organizations opposed each other for decades; although they did not cause major fighting, they also sparked a new arms race, which we usually call the Cold War.

The Cold War ended with the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact in 1990, followed by the Soviet Union's breakup in 1991, reshaping the world into a unipolar-multipolar landscape.

I believe the Ocean Federation and the Advance Front in that world are just the names of those two organizations.

"Although I've heard Commander Comrade say this before, hearing it again still feels somewhat poignant," Soviet Russia said.

Qin Ge smiled. "World change never follows individual will; it's the prevailing trend. When a polity grows large, it must absorb more people to sustain it."

But human hearts are fickle; no one dares claim they won't be corrupted by external sugar-coated shells. As such people increase, the polity faces danger, teetering on collapse, even dissolution or overthrow.

However, this world seems to have undergone some changes; currently, the Ocean Federation and the Advance Front have both been drawn to the great explosion occurring in the Tunguska polar region.

But the timelines don't match: the Tunguska explosion happened in 1908, whereas these two factions only appeared after 1955.

Therefore, after the Tunguska explosion, up to the period recorded in this dossier there is a gap—perhaps because scientists discovered something that made the explosion seem mysterious and elusive.

"Exactly. Moreover, according to the end of this dossier, the polar region has become a huge maritime construction site. That shows the two major factions have already discovered something usable in the poles and thus set up a construction site." Enterprise agreed with Qin Ge's view.

"Although we haven't seen other data yet, judging from this, it's very likely the two major factions found Cube substance in the polar region; otherwise I really can't fathom why the Sirens would place it in the outpost." Weineituo said.

"Let's look at the other dossier; perhaps it can tell us why." Qin Ge said, placing the projection onto the second dossier.

"Social Data: Special Materials Factory Hiring!" Enterprise said doubtfully, "Is this a job advertisement?"

Qin Ge nodded. "Looks like it, though the content is really not simple."

"This factory is located in the precision industrial production center of New Port's suburbs and is one of the first 120 White Eagle enterprises to obtain a Type‑1 Energy Cube production license."

"Wait, an Energy Cube?!" Enterprise exclaimed, "What's the relation between this and the Wisdom Cube?"

"Not clear yet, but this already fully shows that the dossiers the Sirens left in the outpost are indeed records concerning the Cube."

It seems that, after the Tunguska explosion, scientists over the following years accidentally detected the existence of Cube substance, prompting the two major organizations to enter and begin research.

"And this Energy Cube should be the civilian version, right?" Prince Eugen said.

Qin Ge nodded while thinking. "It seems the developments are getting more and more interesting; just three dossiers have already sketched out a completely different world."

Moreover, it seems these dossiers are far more than just these three; earlier, didn't Washington and her companions witness that mysterious ship girl destroy a Siren outpost? Who knows whether they found such dossiers inside?

"Commander, wait a moment; I'll ask right away." Enterprise said quickly.
