Asura of Tomorrow's Ark

The sanctuary released by Liz was forcibly broken by Li Ang, which made her weak body worse. After so many days of rest, there was no sign of improvement.

During this period of time, Shining has been taking care of Liz every step of the way. If it wasn't for this reason, Shining might have acted with them.

At this time, Shining had already noticed Li Ang's arrival, so Li Ang didn't knock on the door, and waited quietly outside the room for Shining.

After a while, after Liz's treatment was over, Shining came out from inside.

As soon as he came out, Shining Ling said, "You came to me this time because of the previous problem, right? I thought you had forgotten about it."

During this period of time, Shining has been a little restless. The reason is that Li Ang has never come to her to ask the question in exchange. He met her by chance, and it is also because of his upcoming trip to Sami.

Now that Li Ang finally took the initiative to come to the door, Shining was really relieved.

"How could it be? It's just that I was busy before, so I just spared some time now." Li Ang replied with a smile, "Anyway, the question I want to ask is not complicated, so I will solve it before departure."

"...Do you want to talk about it in another place?"

"No, just say it here, there are no outsiders anyway."

Shining took a deep breath, made enough mental preparations, and said in a deep voice, "You ask."

"The thing I want to ask is very simple. Why did you... why did you give your organization the name 'Apostle'?"

PS. Fuck the wrong date for regular update, I just took a look at how it was set to November 11th

This timing can only be timed, not uploaded immediately, so silly

Chapter 12 What is an Apostle?

"Or let me put it another way. Do you... know the meaning of the word 'Apostle'?"

Hearing Li Ang's question, Shining secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, what the other party asked was not about her dark past.

The origin of the name 'Apostle' is a bit complicated, but for The Shining, this is not an unspeakable secret.

However, Shining is a little confused now.

"Why would you even think of asking that?"

When they met for the first time, Shining had already mentioned this name at that time, and Li Ang didn't have any doubts at that time, so why did he suddenly ask this question now?

Don't answer questions with questions, bastard!

Li Ang complained in his heart, and then answered Shining's question, "Because I heard this word from Adams in the previous battle, so I want to ask, the name of your organization, and the name of his mouth The 'Apostle' has no connection."

"I see." Hearing what Li Ang said, Shining nodded in understanding.

Since it was heard from Adams, there is nothing strange about it.

The other party can know the secret of the 'Black Celebration', and modify the entire ceremony, turning it into their own Originium skill, which is no longer a field that ordinary people can set foot in.

The movement caused by their battle a few days ago can be seen by the entire Grand Knights. Although the official report said that it was due to the overload of the reactor caused by improper operation, as one of the participants, Shining, she clearly knew the whole incident. The ins and outs of the incident.

So Shining replied, "You guessed right, the meaning of 'Apostle'...is exactly what you thought."

"I guess, you should want to ask, are we connected with a certain god?"

Li Ang nodded silently.

"Unfortunately...you found the wrong person."

"The reason why I chose this name is just to commemorate a person, a... dead person."

Li Ang could feel that she was not lying.

When mentioning that person, Li Ang could feel the complex emotions surging in Shining's heart, including admiration, regret, sadness, and more deeply, self-blame.

Seeing the appearance of Shining, she was obviously unwilling to continue talking on this topic, but she was silent for a while, but then changed the topic and said, "But if you are interested in 'Eternal Life', I can I have a message for you."

"It is said that there are still real 'eternal beings' active in Ursas until now, but I don't recommend you go there to find him. All the immortals... are real monsters, even if their strength is not as good as the most The top powerhouses, they may also have some very strange abilities."

Is it the so-called power...

Listening to Shining's tone, she seems to have faced a certain 'eternal' in person.

Perhaps, the death of "that person" in Shining's mouth is related to the "eternal man" she once faced.

...The Kazdel Civil War that just came to an end a year ago?

If there is any place where the fact of the coming of the immortals can be concealed, it is probably only the battlefield that has lasted for decades.

Li Ang tactfully did not ask any further questions. Shining Spirit's answer had already given him a pleasant surprise. The immortals who are active in the territory of Ursas... The credibility of this information is still very high, and it may be possible when Come in handy.

After that, Shining told Li Ang what he knew about the 'Apostle' and the 'Eternal Life'.

After confirming each other, Li Ang found that the information he got from Adams was basically correct. It seems that Adams was really confident at the time, and he didn't even hide a word from Li Ang.

It's a pity that he rolled over in the end tragically.

"Then, besides that, I have another question about those sarkaz sacrificial rites."

Hearing this, Shining subconsciously frowned.

"About the Sarkaz sacrificial rite, I have already told that Miss Eyjafala everything I know, without any concealment."

"I'm just a warrior myself, and I don't know how to delve into things that only wizards can study. Even if you want to ask me a question, I'm afraid I can't answer it."

"No," Li Ang shook his head slightly, and said, "I just want to ask, does this sacrificial rite...have some kind of power in itself? Can this kind of words be used to achieve some special effects?"

"You mean 'ritual'?"

The Shining did not hide this fact, and after thinking for a few seconds, he replied, "The wizards of the Sarkaz family can use some ancient and complicated spells through sacrificial rites. This should be the world's original Originium skill. However, most of the ways of using sacrificial texts have been lost, and there may be only a few people who have preserved the methods of using sacrificial texts."

What Professor Nauman left in his notebook was a small 'ceremony'?Li Ang nodded thoughtfully.

"That is to say, as long as you master the sacrificial oration and the construction method of the ceremony, everyone can use that ceremony?"

"It's impossible." The Shining replied without hesitation, "The ceremony has very strict requirements on the blood of the performer. Only a small number of Sarkaz with ancient blood can hold it, and not everyone can use it."

"If the bloodline does not meet the requirements, the sacrificial oration is at best an ordinary text..."

But at this point, Shining also became a little hesitant.

If only the ancient blood can perform the ceremony, then what happened to the suspected 'Black Celebration' ceremony that she discovered earlier?

So, after finishing speaking, Shining added, "I'm not very sure about this, maybe there is a way to bypass this restriction, but I don't know."

"...Did you find something?"

Rituals only available to the ancient Sarkaz?In that case, is the bloodline of the blood clan considered ancient?

Didn't Byron's bloodline happen to be atavistic? If you have a chance, you can go to him and try it.

"It's nothing." Li Ang changed the subject without any trace, and didn't let Shining think about Dr. Nauman's notes, "It's just that I saw a broken stone platform with some strange symbols engraved on it, I just know now That is the Sarkaz Ritual."

Afterwards, Li Ang casually described to Shining what he saw in the image of Origin Stone Will.

"That should be an abandoned altar, and the level doesn't sound low...I didn't expect this kind of thing to be preserved."

"However, without the priest who presided over the ceremony, no matter how powerful the altar is, it is just a pile of broken stones."

PS. Uh uh, I suddenly feel a little bit Calvin, it’s time to make up the crazy mountains

Chapter 13 A new journey

"Miss Shining, thank you for your cooperation, then we are now cleared." Li Ang nodded and said with satisfaction.

In exchange for this information with some data that is no longer useful, the deal is well worth it.

The information that Shining told him was difficult to obtain from ordinary channels. If this opportunity was missed, it would take a lot of trouble to figure it out. At least Li Ang felt very satisfied.

But... The Shining has a different opinion on this.

She shook her head and said, "No...it's not enough."

"Maybe you think it's nothing, but compared with the information you gave me, what I paid is really too little."

With that said, Shining bowed deeply to Li Ang, "And the things I did before, I have to pay enough."

"Liz and I will stay in Casimir for the time being. After Liz's physical condition improves, if there is something that needs my help, I will definitely not refuse."

According to the logic of ordinary people, if you take advantage of it, you should hurry up and slip away. Why does Shining take the initiative to increase the price?Li Ang doesn't quite understand Shining's way of thinking. There shouldn't be one thing for sure. Shining... even regards Liz as more important than himself.

"Uh, okay." Li Ang scratched his head.

Since it was proposed by the other party, then Li Ang really has no reason to refuse.

"However, let's talk about these things when we come back. It's getting late now, and we're leaving soon."

"Please be careful, both of you, and I wish you all the best of luck."

Watching Li Ang disappear at the corner of the corridor in the distance, Shining slowly withdrew his gaze.

When Li Ang came outside the manor, Adele had already packed up and was waiting quietly in the car.

It's just that, at this time, only Ren and Manna were left by her side.

"You're finally here," Ren breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Li Ang, "I thought something happened again."

"Some things were delayed for a while," Li Ang said apologetically, rubbing his head, "However, it's all right now."

"It's fine anyway."

Li Ang nodded, and then asked, "Where are the others? Have they all gone back?"

"Sarah said she was staying inside the house, and the temperature outside was a little low, so I didn't let her out." Ren replied.

As for the three members of Linguang's family...

"They are sneaky and don't know what they are doing, so ignore them." Manna said lightly.

"Okay." Li Ang shrugged and said to Manna, "Then after I leave, I will leave the rest to you."

"Can I refuse?" Manna said with a straight face.

"I didn't force you. If you really don't want to do it, you don't have to do it, but the question is... do you have a choice?"

"Okay..." Manna sighed helplessly.

What Li Ang said was right. Manna really had no choice. This was a task that the Supervisory Committee, or the Grand Knight Commander, directly placed on him.

Naturally, it is impossible for the Supervisory Committee to be completely at ease with Li Ang, an outsider. The placement of Manna here is a check and balance on him from a certain point of view. Considering that they have had friendship before, Manna is naturally the most suitable candidate. .

And... Among all the trustworthy people in the Board of Supervisors, there is only one freak like Manna, who pretended not to be a good knight and went to be a low-level social animal.

However, now Manna can be regarded as a salty fish turned over, put on a brand new suit, gold-rimmed watch and gold-rimmed glasses, he finally looks like a successful person, the only thing that remains the same is that he hides in his clothes The dagger below.

"I won't ask about specific things. I don't understand anyway, so I'll just continue with the previous arrangement."

"..."

Manna pushed his glasses and said, "Then let me ask one more question, are you not worried about breaking the capital chain if you change the previous policy rashly?"

Ball Pharmaceuticals has been hit hard, and the safest solution now is to recover first, rather than rashly changing its development plan.

"Isn't this what the Supervisory Committee wants?" Li Ang said calmly, "If you want to stabilize those infected people, this step must be taken, right?"

"And Ball Pharmaceuticals is one of those who are capable of doing this... To be precise, it should be the director A."

"If the capital chain is broken, I think the China Securities Regulatory Commission will not ignore it?"

"Well, you guessed right, the China Securities Regulatory Commission will not let it go, but..."

Manna covered her forehead with a stomach ache, "But that guy, he won't just cooperate so easily..."

Director A has considerable autonomy, and there is nothing that can interfere with his thoughts, not to mention that he is also a very reckless person. The thought of convincing this kind of guy makes Manna feel extremely painful.

"Don't worry, he will cooperate."

"Oh?" Manna couldn't help narrowing his eyes, "Has it been resolved in advance? It's really curious... I don't know how you persuaded him."

"It's nothing, it's just that I had a little talk with him two days ago and made a deal with him."

For someone like Director A, the only thing that can impress him is enough valuable information.

Unfortunately, Li Ang, who went deep into the will of the origin stone, had as many things as he could get out, so when he went back to repair the armor, Li Ang made a deal with him.

However, doing so is also a very risky thing. If you don't pay close attention, who knows what this kind of mad scientist can toss.

With Manna staring at him now, it shouldn't be a big problem.

"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first. Adele has been waiting for me there for a long time." Li Ang pointed to the car parked in front and said.
