Angel Son of Tomorrow's Ark

It's just that after Linguang was deported from the country, she never had any contact with this younger sister.
Linguang: "My parents disappeared when we were young. My grandfather also passed away a few years ago, but I couldn't go back to visit him for the last time."
Mentioning grandfather, Linguang's gaze lowered for a moment.
But there is no need to wait for Luo Zhen to take advantage of it...
No, just to show concern as a good brother, Linguang raised his head sassyly and continued:
"Now the elders of the Linguang family should only be my uncle and a distant aunt. Counting the age, my sister should also be an adult this year."
"With my uncle here, I'm not worried about her safety...but as her older sister, I'm very guilty of ignoring her for six years. Even if she resents me and doesn't recognize me for the family It's only natural to shame my sister."
"So I want to ask Mr. Luo Zhen. Even if it's just to take a look from a distance, can you confirm her current situation for me?"
Luo Zhen: "I promise with this obstructing fluorescent lamp above my head, I will definitely do it. As long as your sister is still in the leadership of the Grand Knight when I go, I will definitely protect her like my own sister."
Hearing such a sincere and humble request from Linguang, Luo Zhenna naturally had no hesitation, a hundred promises would be fine.
Lin Guang also bowed his head to Luo Zhen to thank Luo Zhen as if he had let go of a big stone in his chest.
Out of kindness towards Linguang, Luo Zhen is of course willing to take care of her younger sister.
But there is one thing, regarding Linguang's overly humble attitude, Luo Zhen must confirm one thing:
"Actually, last time, when I was chatting with you at Shihuaiya's Hotel, I wanted to ask. Linguang, you're not an infected person at all, are you?"
"......Sure enough, I can't hide it from you."
Linguang smiled distressedly, and finally nodded in admission.
Luo Zhen is very sensitive to the origin stone.
No matter how low the infection rate is, even a perfunctory 1% like Shier Teer, Luo Zhen can still find it by touching it.
But Luo Zhen had contacted Linguang not once or twice, and never felt that she had any extra source stones on her body, and her body was very healthy.
For Luo Zhen, Lin Guang also felt that there was no need to keep it a secret.
She put down her guard and said frankly to Luo Zhen:
"It's going back to six years ago, when I won the Major."
"At that time, Linguang's family was in ruins, and his grandfather was also sick in bed. The glory of the golden Pegasus had already dimmed. At that time, several kind elders sent me invitations, hoping that I would join the war knights when I became an adult, and leave To defend the frontier."
Linguang himself said that there are many ways to serve the motherland, and becoming a war knight is the most straightforward one.
Even in this era of entertainment to death, the word knight can be used by any cat or dog, and for the public, it is a consumer idol that changes every few months.
However, the name of [Battle Knight] still symbolizes Casimir's highest combat power, and is a symbol of glory and strength.
Linguang said:
"During the decades in power, the Chamber of Commerce has also been trying to control Casimir's armed forces. But the Prison Court also knows that this is its last line of defense. Therefore, based on the principle of non-confusion between the military and the people, the Federation has never been allowed to interfere. armed group."
"If I join the Knights of War, I may continue to cherish the ideals and pride of the knights, and be myself in the name of the light. Even if the family declines, it doesn't matter if I sell the house under the leadership of the knights. I rely on the knights' salary , I am enough to support my sister, which is actually pretty good."
"Linguang, you are such a good sister."
Luo Zhen praised Linguang from the bottom of his heart, making this big sister blush slightly.
Linguang was able to withstand the six years of homelessness after being expelled, and continued to live the most simple life after joining Rhodes Island. This is in the eyes of everyone.
Except for the maintenance of weapons and equipment, she usually has almost no extra expenses, which shows that she is definitely not a person who seeks pleasure.
Considering her birth, her self-denial lifestyle is even more commendable, making Luo Zhen want to live with her as a partner.
But it turns out that Linguang did not become a war knight.
After the embarrassment passed, Linguang shook his head lightly:
"I rejected the offer to enlist in the army, and because of this I had a duel with an uncle in the army. I am really sorry for his kindness."
"However, I do not regret the decision."
"Warring knights are too far away from the people. In the Great Knights, people know that competitive knights are knights, but they only hear about them from newspapers and gossip. Knights are also stationed in the frontier all the year round. Although they protect the people, they are not I despise the knightly competition, and even the common people who participate in the knightly competition."
This is what Linguang has seen with his own eyes since he was a child.
It is precisely because she was born in a military family, but she lived in an era where entertainment is paramount since she was a child, that she can clearly see the gap between the two in the cracks.
She said seriously:
"I don't think this is right. The war knights are still strong, but there are fewer and fewer people joining the army. The Supervisory Court requires the Chamber of Commerce to contribute military expenses every year, and the equipment for the war knights is also supplied by the enterprises of the Chamber of Commerce. Although They despise knight competitions, but to be honest, the current knights who are fighting are supported by the Commercial Federation, and they have not changed from the master knights and their followers a hundred years ago."
"However, the decisive gap is that the common people only know about the Chamber of Commerce, but not the Knights of Conquest. The money of the Federation of Commerce, in the final analysis, is the money of all the people. But the Knights of Conquest supported by it do not shy away from despising them. I don't think it's right."
Linguang firmly shook his head:
"Knights should be a more noble existence. They should not be regarded as entertainment idols, tools that exist only to please people. But they should not be arrogant, treating the people as their own possessions, and defending against foreign enemies. An excuse to kidnap their nobles."
"I didn't have such a clear idea at the time. But I also knew that if I joined the Knights of War, I would have to prioritize the interests of the whole and could no longer act freely. It is difficult for me to express this distress in words, so after hesitating , I still chose to participate in the knight competition."
Linguang who was able to think of this on his own is already very remarkable.
She practices the lofty spirit of chivalry, but at the same time, she can question the existence of knights: who is supporting the knights.
In Casimir before the feudal era, knights ruled the country and collected taxes as a matter of course.
A knight's child is always a knight, and a peasant's child is always a peasant.
The commoners at the lower level provided nourishment for the knights at the upper level, fed them fat, and even gave birth to Casimir's unique "Knight's Treasure" culture.
The knights exchanged the money accumulated over the years for a series of prominent castles, military equipment, and handicrafts, and used this to show their nobility.
After death, these treasures will be buried together, and the entire mountain will be hollowed out to create a luxurious mausoleum, reflecting the eternal glory of their family.
Of course, this is far from the knight in Linguang's mind, it's just a nobleman with a different name.
Linguang said:
"Of course I admire the warrior knights my ancestors fought for, and I also believe that they are noble heroes who defended their homes and the country. But if this is the case, they are still out of touch with the people of Casimir, and they will even be resented."
"We haven't reached that point yet, and the Supervisory Court still maintains checks and balances with the Chamber of Commerce. But the times are developing, and new mobile cities are popping up every day, and the speed of progress in various countries is far beyond imagination... If things go on like this, can the stagnant knights resist the next invasion of the Ursus Empire? Or will it be Victoria, Letania, or Colombia's strong ships and guns?"
Luo Zhen: "...you think more than I expected, Linguang."
Luo Zhen also became more serious, and continued pouring soy milk for Linguang.
Lin Guangming was also very young, and had just grown up when he left Casimir.
But the issues she was thinking about had gone beyond the category of bowing her head and living the life in front of her, and she was genuinely concerned about the country and the people.
The "knight" she mentioned is neither a combat knight nor a competitive knight, but a more illusory and noble spirit.
This kind of spirit may not exist at all, it is just born in people's fantasy, and it will be broken at the touch of reality.
But the lofty spirit is never an excuse to be ridiculed by saying "unrealistic".
Linguang is the lofty person who looks up at the high mountain, even though he can't reach it, he still yearns for it.
Complimenting Luo Zhen, Linguang only smiled calmly:
"If I make you feel mature, it must be due to Shining, Nightingale, and everyone in Rhodes Island. In fact, I am just a reckless man, and I can only temporarily dispel confusion through fighting, that's all."
This is also the main reason for Linguang to participate in the knight competition.
She didn't think there was any glory in knightly competitions, and she also knew that it was tarnishing the name of knights.
Once I participate, I agree with this rule and go in to be a clown.
But compared to the war knights who disdain to go off in person and are almost forgotten by the public, the competitive knights can at least attract people's attention.
Even if you are despised as a clown, it is better than doing nothing.
Linguang is willing to be this eye-catching torch.
Even if it only illuminates a little bit of dark corners covered with cobwebs, that's fine.
In fact, Linguang has indeed succeeded.
She created a miracle of knight competition, without any publicity, without any support, and even without any sponsorship from the business federation, and even provided her own weapons and armor, she became the champion single-handedly.
Of course, this kind of maverick is also a kind of enthusiasm, and the reputation of [Yao Knight] has also been well used by the business, and the food is full.
But even so, Linguang felt that it was valuable.
At least people will know that there used to be such a Yao knight who was able to stand on top only by his persistence and strength.
Moreover, if Linguang stayed in Casimir at that time, she would definitely be able to rely on her reputation to do something else.
But, Linguang smiled embarrassedly:
"After I won the championship, I received a medical report. It said that I was unfortunately infected in a series of battles and was diagnosed with ore disease. Then according to the quarantine law, I have to leave the mobile city."
Luo Zhen asked with concern: "Didn't you check it again? This can be easily exposed with a physical examination, right?"
"At the time, I didn't think about it that much."
Linguang shook his head lightly:
"I don't have a team and logistics, and I deal with my injuries after each battle. It's not surprising even if I get infected. And this report was brought to me by my grandfather on the hospital bed, so I don't doubt it at all. .”
"I just think it's what I deserve, so I can only accept it... But the strange thing is, even though I've been wandering in the wilderness for a few months, the feeling of pain hasn't eroded my body. I didn't find any growths on my body. Crystallization is really strange."
Lin Guang laughed as he spoke, and Luo Zhen was a little fascinated by his sassy manner.
She really didn't know that she was not infected at the time, and she really just accepted this cruel sentence.
She had just won the knight championship, and everything was just beginning. When Linguang was able to use her reputation to do some good things, she had to become an infected person who was hated and feared by everyone, and wandered alone in the wilderness.
If it were an ordinary person, they would not be able to accept the reality for a long time, and it would not be surprising to do anything.
Even so, Linguang did not give up on himself.
She has always been doing what she can do best, practicing a noble spirit.
It was this kind of spirit that made her meet the Shining Spirit and Nightingale in the wilderness settlement.
Speaking of the two of them, Linguang's expression suddenly became gentle:
"I met them when I was protecting a team of infected people. There are two Sarkazs, one black and one white, and they also claim to be doctors, willing to treat patients for free. This is so outrageous and outrageous, even I I don't believe it."
Luo Zhen: "Let me guess. Then they found out that you are not even an infected person. When they heard about your experience, they couldn't get up from laughing?"
Luo Zhen said strange words, and by the way, imagined the appearance of Shining Nightingale laughing, feeling a little cute.
Linguang also imagined this for a while, and couldn't help covering his mouth, shrugging his shoulders hehehe.
