Asura of Tomorrow's Ark

Standing behind Li Ang, Byron said calmly.

Chapter 7 Byron’s Purpose

Byron is also an old acquaintance of Ryan, and it is not surprising that he came to visit him when he heard the news that Ryan was hospitalized.

But the problem is... the current Byron is not suitable to place Ren.

"I didn't say you can't come, but...you have to pay attention to your current status. The most popular champion candidate is running around. Have you ever thought about how much trouble you will cause to others?" Li Ang said lightly. Said.

Fish have a memory of only seven seconds, and people's memories last only a few days after someone or something disappears from the public eye.

It's just that Li Ang didn't participate in the competition for a while, and Casimir's audience had already completely forgotten about him. Now Byron's fame has completely overwhelmed Li Ang.

No matter where Byron went, his every move would be watched by countless eyes.

If those all-pervasive reporters find this place, I don't know how much trouble it will bring to Ren... After all, one of Byron's only few defeats was at Ren's hands. Very happy to discover the secrets hidden behind them.

"I'll get rid of those people."

"...Let me just remind you that killing people in a moving city is against the law."

Li Ang always felt that with Byron's tone just now, it seemed as if he wanted to kill all the reporters who followed him. Now he is still under the name of Ball Pharmaceuticals. It was Li Ang who came to clean up the funeral.

"You don't need to remind me of this kind of thing, Mr. Director." Byron sarcastically said.

I don't know if it's because Li Ang taught him too hard before, or because Li Ang has suddenly become his immediate boss, Byron always has a prickly feeling when talking to him.

Of course, Byron could only ridicule a few words, if he really did it, he would still not be Li Ang's opponent.

After contradicting such a sentence, Byron stopped paying attention to Li Ang.

"It seems that you are lucky, you haven't lost your life yet." Looking at Ren on the hospital bed, Byron said coldly.

"...You know, my life has always been tough."

In just two sentences, there was already a slight smell of gunpowder between them.

"Since you are still alive, I have something to give you."

With that said, Byron threw something at Ren.

Ren subconsciously stretched out his hand and grabbed the black shadow, but the force on the thing was beyond his expectation. Under the pain, Ren retracted his hand all of a sudden.

"You want to kill me, bastard!" Ren stared at Byron with an angry face.

The speed of that thing is not a joke. If he had moved a little slower just now, he would probably have been hit by that thing and his head would be covered in blood. However, Ren himself was also a little puzzled... When did his reaction become so fast?

Before he fell into a coma, he couldn't do this kind of thing.

"The weak must have the consciousness of the weak. People like you can live here... Thank you for your luck."

Byron didn't feel guilty at all, and after leaving such a sentence coldly, he turned and left the ward.

"What are you doing, this guy..."

Come over and say something harsh and then turn around and run away?What the hell is he doing here?Ren was confused by Byron.

"Are you okay? Did you get hurt just now?"

After Byron left, Sarah hurried into the ward, grabbed Ryan's hands with concern, and completely lost her angry look just now.

From this perspective, Rennes even had to thank Byron.

If he didn't come over suddenly to intervene, it would be inevitable for Ren to kneel on the washboard for several hours after returning home.

"Li Ang, that person just now...is Brother Ren's opponent in the last match?" Adele tugged at the corner of Li Ang's clothes and whispered, "What is he doing here?"

Adele and Sarah had noticed Byron a long time ago, but because of the fierce aura on him, they waited until Byron left before daring to approach the ward.

"It's that person. As for why he came here, it should be to visit Brother Ren."

Then Li Ang said with some hesitation, "Byron...he is a bit complicated, and I don't know how to describe it, but his brutal performance in the ring certainly cannot represent all of him."

At least after knowing his purpose of participating in the knight competition, Li Ang's impression of him also changed.

Under Sarah's concerned gaze, Ren shook his hands and said with a wry smile, "I'm fine, but my hands hurt a little."

"It's just...why did he give me this?"

Ren opened his right hand, and what was lying in his palm was a brand new bank card with a string of numbers written on the back of the bank card. Not surprisingly, it was the secret of this card. What Byron threw over just now was this thing.

"You...you probably don't know why Byron is competing, do you?"

The others in the ward shook their heads cooperatively.

"Maybe you won't believe that Byron participated in the knight competition in order to change the future of the infected in this country."

Under the unbelievable gazes of others, Li Ang said something like this, "The China Securities Regulatory Commission has secretly reached an agreement with the Chamber of Commerce, as long as Byron can win the championship in this special championship, then They will take this opportunity to announce that even the infected can legally participate in the major tournament and obtain the status and status of a knight."

"It's not like what a man like him would do, is it? But it's the truth."

Li Ang only knew about these inside stories after he took over Ball Pharmaceuticals. If he had known about this earlier, Li Ang might have been more lenient when testing with Byron.

"Is the situation of the infected here... very bad?" Adele asked cautiously.

She has not been in Casimir for a long time, and spent almost all of her time with Sarah in Linguang's manor. She rarely came into contact with other infected people, so she is not very clear about the situation of other infected people. how.

Neither Ryan nor Sarah had a very good look on their faces when the subject came up.

"It can only be said... It is difficult for infected people to survive in this country without any support."

The current environment has improved somewhat compared to before, at least there will be no arrests of infected people on the street.

But... The business alliance is just another way to treat these infected people.

They are allowed to live here, but the infected will not be provided with any job opportunities. In this way, the infected will not be able to afford the cost of living in the mobile city before long, so they will fall into the trap of business associations .

Either live in the wilderness, or gamble your life in the underground arena secretly opened by the business union.

It can only be said that Adele is very lucky, there are always people who are willing to help her, and the Linguang family is not the kind of person who would mind infected people.

"Byron... wants to set up a knight order that can accept the infected, and strive for more living soil for the infected."

"

Chapter 8 Next stop, Sammy

Byron's goal is ambitious. Although Li Ang does not have the spirit of self-sacrifice, this does not prevent him from admiring this kind of people.

"Then he should need the money more than me..." Ren murmured.

Through Sarah's mobile phone, Ryan has already found out how much money was saved in that bank card. Byron probably spent most of his income during this period on that card. If he wants to establish a knight order, I don't know how much money needs to be put into it.

Li Ang shook his head and said, "No, it's not about money."

"Although Byron has such an idea, it is still unknown whether he can achieve it in the end. It still depends on the result of the joint game between the China Securities Regulatory Commission and the business."

"Since he gave you this, you can take it well."

It is true that Byron wants to fight for a living soil for the infected, but a knight order that only accepts the infected... In Leon's view, this will only exacerbate the conflict between ordinary people and the infected.

What he really wants to do should be to eliminate the differences between ordinary people and the infected, but it is obviously impossible to do this by one person alone. Byron can only retreat and unite the infected first. , to fight for their due interests.

Will it intensify the conflict with ordinary people, who cares?Even if there is any conflict in the future, the infected must survive first.

"...Well, you're right."

After hearing what Li Ang said just now, Ren also accepted his statement.

"Anyway, it's still too early to say something like this. First of all, Byron must win this year's special championship, and then he has to wait for the approval of the Knights Association. When everything is done, it will be at least half a year later. " said Leon.

At that time, Li Ang can also provide Byron with a lot of help. After all, he is in favor of improving the treatment of infected people with both hands and feet.

However, there is still a question in Li Ang's mind. Infected people... This group with a large number in the world of Terra, where should they be placed.

According to the information he obtained from the origin stone will, the origin stone is the embodiment of the planet's self-defense mechanism. From a certain point of view, the infected are the "chosen" people of this planet. gain great strength.

That's why, as the first race to master Originium skills, almost all of the Sarkaz clan are infected.

However, with the passage of time, the situation has gradually changed. Although the origin stone can give people strength, there is a limit to the ability of people to bear it. It is like a bowl of rice can make a person full, but eating a hundred bowls in a row It would only make people die, and the infected people encountered this kind of embarrassing situation.

After investing a large amount of Origin Stone energy, the Will of Origin Stone found that the number of invaders had not decreased, so they increased the amount of input next time. As time passed, the content of Origin Stone in the world of Terra became higher and higher, and even condensed Out of the entity, that is, the various origin stone mines that people are mining now.

The same is true for the infected. They have a higher affinity for the origin stone energy, so they absorb too much origin stone energy that they cannot grasp, and condense the origin stone crystals on their bodies.

It is easy to change the shape of a liquid object, but it is not that easy to change it into a solid one. Only a few people with outstanding talents can mobilize the origin stone energy that condenses into a solid state.

Even if the origin stone crystals on the body are removed, the innate talent of the infected person cannot be changed.On the contrary, these infected people have been marked as "talented" by the will of the source stone, and the removal of the source stone crystal will be regarded as a loss. In order to make up for this loss, the will of the source stone will increase the investment in this area.

This is also the reason why cutting off the source stone crystals on the body not only cannot cure the disease, but also makes the ore disease more serious.

In other words, the infected were all instilled with too much Originium energy by the Originium will, and in the end they survived to death. The overly heavy "love" also turned this blessing into a curse in the end.

Only a very few lucky ones have the solution to this problem. For example, Li Ang, who retains very little Origin Stone energy in his body, most of it has turned into Origin Stone particles that surround him like satellites.

But at the end of the day, it's all about those immortals who have gained power but don't do anything.

Raising the bandits' self-respect... This is their situation. If the process of Originium's will is not interrupted, more and more people will be infected with ore disease. No one can change this.

"Speaking of Li Ang, since you're not going to continue participating in the Special Championship, what are your plans going forward?"

After putting away the bank card, Ren asked casually, "Are you going to deal with the company's affairs?"

"No, I'm too lazy to deal with those things, let alone I can't deal with them." Li Ang shook his head and replied, "I will entrust a trustworthy person to deal with it. As for my next plan..."

"I'm supposed to go to Sammy in a few days."

"Sami?" Ren asked with some doubts, "Where is that place?"

After thinking for a long time, Ren didn't remember where Sami was, and then Sarah reminded, "Have you forgotten, Sami is just to the north, the small country bordering Ursas."

"Oh, oh, I remembered when you said that."

Ren patted his head, but after a while, his movements suddenly stopped, and he raised the volume and shouted loudly, "What? Sammy? What are you going to do in that ghostly place?"

That place was so remote, if Sarah hadn't reminded him, Ren would never have remembered where it was.

"There are some special reasons." Li Ang replied, "I will go there with Adele to find news about her father."

"...Yes." Adele responded and nodded slightly, "That's a place my father has been to, and there should be some clues left by him."

"Then, there's no need to go in such a hurry," Ren said incoherently, "Aren't you going to take a rest?"

"No," Li Ang shook his head, "If you rest for too long, your body will rust."

They didn't go to Sami this time for fun, and they would definitely encounter many dangers along the way, so Li Ang planned to set off with Adele as soon as possible after his equipment was repaired and the necessary items were ready.

"What's more, we are planning to come back before the baby is born." Li Ang replied with a smile.

"You've already said that, what else can I say?" Ren said helplessly.

"I can only wish you the best of luck."

Chapter 9 Hidden Map

The communication between Li Ang and Adele was last night.

Before they rested, Adele, who had made a decision, told Leon the good news. With the help of Shining, she had successfully deciphered some of the notes left by her father.

Hearing Adele say that the notes left by Dr. Nauman have been complicatedly encrypted, Li Ang couldn't help frowning.

This also means that Dr. Nauman knew that he was being targeted a long time ago?But even so, Dr. Nauman still did not give up his research, but used many other means to prevent his research results from being leaked.

Adele mentioned just now that the mysterious sarkaz ritual is one of them. Li Ang recalled the pictures he saw in the origin stone will. In the scene where the Sarkaz appeared, there were From time to time, some seemingly mysterious words will indeed appear, but unfortunately, Li Ang doesn't know the meaning of those words.

"In other words, according to what you have deciphered now, my uncle and aunt's last stop was Sami?"

"……Um."

Recalling her own memories, Adele didn't remember anything unusual about her parents during that time, they just went out for a few months as usual, and when they came back, they still brought Adele a lot of gifts.

"Sami..." Li Ang pondered for a moment, then said, "Uncle, why did he go there? Is it mentioned in the notes?"

Adele shook her head and said, "I don't know either... It may have been mentioned in the notes, but I haven't been able to decipher the relevant content yet."

"All right……"

Samina is not a good place... There are blizzards for most of the year, and even Ursus gave up his plan to invade there in the end.

Dr. Nauman certainly did not go to that ghostly place to study the volcano he is most familiar with. What did he do there?Are you studying icebergs?

This is not impossible. Volcanology is only a branch of geology. Professor Nauman is a professor at the Originium Institute of Technology, and his wife specializes in the study of natural environments and ecosystems. It is not surprising to investigate the extreme environment of Sami .
