Walk through the structure of the Ark and wander on the continent of Terra

"You're in trouble too, a transformation tendency that's beyond your control."

Gladia nodded, she sighed softly, and then pulled down her collar.On her neck, there was a piece of skin that looked like it had grown several scales.

Gladia nodded silently, but restored her collar after a moment, "Don't tell them both."

Alpha understood. She silently took out the sampling equipment, collected Gladia's epithelial cell samples and a trace amount of blood, and then took out a receipt and handed it to her.

"Currently, I have not installed a large-scale comprehensive medical scanning and testing device in Rhode Island. Take this document and go to the Life Star. There is a suitable equipment in the Life Star's infirmary. Xu Yu will be there. I’ll wait for you there and help you complete the rest of the tests.”

"Thank you."

"It's easy." Looking at the back of Gladia walking away, Alpha smiled bitterly. Gladia's trust in him was completely based on the level of science and technology she had mastered and the strength she demonstrated.But it can be seen that she really believes in herself.

……

Fortunately, the tendency shown in Gladia is much lighter than that of Skadi, and Skadi is still within control. The current abnormal state of Gladia is basically can be ignored.

"In a sense, you Agor seems to have used a dangerous method, but the actual feasibility and stability have indeed gone through a lot of in-depth research. You are familiar enough with Haihe, and you are familiar with it beyond my knowledge. expected."

Regarding Alpha's complaints, Gladia was noncommittal. It was difficult for her to judge whether Alpha's evaluation of her was out of affirmation of the deep-sea hunter's skills, or whether it was ridicule.

But at least, Gladia can understand the data given by Alpha's advanced equipment. By browsing the complex data and the structural drawings established by various tomography scans, Gladia knows that her current state is indeed quite acceptable. control.

"Okay, Gladia, there is no need to worry unfoundedly. As long as you can firmly maintain your will, there is still a long way for you in the future." Looking at Gladia's worried look when she read the report With such a look, Alpha didn't know how to comfort her for a while.

However, Gladia recovered quickly. The arrogance she brought from the deep sea civilization Agor eventually required her to cheer up and maintain her dignity and dignity. She could not face the land on land with a negative emotion. The world, at least to her, was worth it.Alpha did not comment on the choices she made. After all, those were her own choices, and she was a rational enough person.

After the inspection results were settled, Gladia officially went to meet with Skadi and Laurentina with a slightly complicated mood. On Rhode Island, there were also two fellow deep-sea hunters. This matter was enough to make her happy. After the battle with "Poseidon", she was already prepared to be the only survivor.

Laurentina, her original team member, was very happy when she saw her. She couldn't wait to pull her to greet her. Skadi of the third team also looked very happy. Maybe everyone had already done it at the beginning. Prepare yourself to be the last survivor.

Laurentina introduced her to the sculpture that had scared her before, the "Laurentina" with clusters of flowers instead of eyes.Alpha's gift permanently changes the physical properties of the sculpture, making it truly a structure capable of carrying life and consciousness.

And because of those unpleasant encounters, the split personality created in Laurentina's brain can now be differentiated through the connection between this new carrier and herself.They can be two different individuals and at the same time a complete whole, so that the relationship between the two consciousnesses is not severed.

This method of handling almost perfectly solved Laurentina's mental health problems, and at the same time greatly shared the physical pressure she experienced. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone.And now, Laurentina can chat with her other self easily.

If "Laurentina" is not essentially a sculpture, maybe the number of survivors of the Deep Sea Hunter can be changed from three to four?

……

In the evening of that day, Gladia found Alpha privately, and the two agreed to meet on the outer deck of Rhode Island.

Alpha had been waiting there early, and it seemed that Gladia had something she wanted to ask herself.

"Alpha, thank you for taking the time to listen to my doubts."

"The finals of the Special Championship are still tomorrow. The business clone of Brilliant Shield Industry can handle it. As for other things, I am not in a hurry. So I am actually quite free now." Standing on the deck, looking at Casimir The sun was setting over the long river outside the most prosperous metropolis. Alpha smiled and handed a wine bottle to Gladia, "Tell me what you need."

"This is a doubt, a doubt that has arisen since I met Miss Xu Yu." Gladia opened the wine bottle without politeness and took a sip, "She is an Argor, a very fragile person." I know something about the physical characteristics of the Agor ethnic group she belongs to, but I feel a completely different feeling from her body."

"What?" Alpha wanted to see what Gladia found with great interest.

"She no longer has the breath of Agor from the ocean, as if she has been insulated from the ocean."

"When we were in Xista, we encountered several giant beasts. Xu Yu was frightened by their auras. In order to protect her, I made some changes to her."

"..." When she heard this, Gladia was silent for a moment. She had already guessed that Alpha would say this, but hearing it with her own ears, she still found it a bit incredible.The changes brought about by Alpha can overwhelm the sea. Is the meaning of her existence completely beyond my imagination?

……

On land, this was the first time that Gladia truly felt that something aroused her interest and curiosity.

130.The road ahead is long

On a normal day, the road from the Central Arena to the Champions Memorial Hall is not that long. Even ordinary people can walk from the gate of the arena to the Memorial Hall in about ten minutes. The door of the hall.

But today, the situation seems to be a little different. This game, which is of great significance to everyone who pays attention to the knight's competitive games in Casimir, has come to an end. Although the Yao Knight won the championship, he refused to participate in the game. Accepting the award, contrary to everyone's expectations, he lent his shoulder to the Blood Knight. The two walked out of the venue together and walked towards the corridor that symbolized the history of knight competition and all honors.

For two people who were exhausted from the battle just now, this journey was definitely not that close.Along with the slow but determined pace of the two, more and more spectators gathered on both sides. Countless people were paying attention to this unexpected plot and wanted to know the reason why all this happened.

In order to see the situation clearly, Alpha stood on top of a street lamp. In her hands, Ye Huang was waiting for danger. But this time, because of many things that had happened before, the Wuzhou Alliance did not appear at the scene. The whole family had already run away. At this moment, it is impossible for the killer organization, which has liquidated all those who failed to escape, to appear in such a public place and threaten the lives of the two great knights.

At least, Alpha knew that Xuan Tie, who had called the little squirrel, had left Casimir with some of his men.

On the street lamp opposite Alpha, Gladia, who had nothing to do for the time being, followed her to watch the excitement. She looked expressionlessly at the cheering crowds who were accompanying the Shining Knight and the Blood Knight.Gladia was too lazy to comment too much on this terrestrial species' entertainment.She could not deny the significance of this activity to the life of land species, but at the same time she could not understand this waste of time.

"If nothing else happens, they can walk to the memorial hall on their own." Gladia held the cup in her hand, but she had been cheering up and alert to the surrounding situation.

"Yes, if nothing else happens." In Alpha's field of vision, the real-time images returned by the high-altitude drone included a panoramic view of the neighborhood and surrounding areas. "But some people don't want the two of them to walk to the memorial hall together." Alpha smiled and shrugged. In her field of vision, at least three or two large trucks loaded with goods were passing through different passages. He rushed toward Maria and the Blood Knight who were walking on the central avenue.All three vehicles were seriously speeding, and all the traffic lights along the way facilitated them.

"Good guy, the Federation of Commerce is desperate. This legendary Chinese-style Iai, with this posture, is about to catch up with Mr. Moss and assassinate Tu Hengyu."

"Alfa, what did you just say?" Gladia, who was standing on the lamppost opposite, felt that she didn't hear clearly what Alpha was saying. She seemed to have said a lot of nouns she had never heard of before. From her expression Literally speaking, those proprietary words may be related to a special cultural phenomenon or subcultural phenomenon from her hometown.

"It's nothing, I just think it's outrageous." After saying that, Alpha disappeared from the spot, "I'll deal with this matter."

"Then let me help too..." Stopping a heavy-duty truck driving at high speed on a moving city road sounds almost impossible, but for Gladia, this level of activity is different from It's almost like taking a walk after dinner.

As for Alpha...

She rushed to the front of one of the large trucks loaded with five steel coils, and raised her hands towards the two large trucks.An invisible position suddenly occurred, creating huge damping evenly, safely freezing the large truck in place, unable to move.The vehicle, driver, and even the steel coils pulled by the vehicle were all safe. A king of steel coils could only cause so much trouble to her.The next step is to interrogate the driver.

As for Gladia, she accepted Alpha's invitation and provided as much help as she could. She blocked the progress of the truck by quickly removing the driver and then manually parking the truck.

The last large truck was disposed of by the war knights who appeared around the Glory Knight and began to take on the task of guarding them.When the threat emerged, they arranged for the deployment of road spikes used to block vehicles, as well as special Originium technology devices that were originally used to resist cavalry charges and were just suitable for slowing down large trucks.There was the sound of a truck being forced to slow down and stop on the road over there. This car, too, could only stop and wait for repairs.

At this time, Aunt Zofia, Sister Maria, and the old guys all came.The Red Pine Knights, who had been fighting in underground structures before, were both willing to fight for the infected and the lower class people of Casimir.

When it was revealed that Margaret was not suffering from ore disease, this caused a big debate within the Red Pine Knights, debating whether to provide the Knights with all the help they could when necessary.But Flame Tail Sona made the final decision. The decision whether to fight alongside the Shining Knights was not determined by whether she was a patient with ore disease, but by what she did.

"The identity and origin of a noble cannot determine whether a person is worthy of our risking our lives to help, but should be determined by her physical actions. This time, I think it is necessary for us to provide them with the help we can. .”

In addition to them, there were many people who supported the Shining Knight and the Blood Knight. The number of people really exceeded many people's expectations. They all gathered spontaneously and surrounded the two knights, guarding them as they marched firmly. Walk towards the palace.

Because of the overt and covert help of many people, Margaret and Dikaiopolis successfully walked through this short but long road.

"Be grateful and touched, Margaret. There are so many people who believe in you and support you. Whether they are infected people or ordinary people, everyone's eyes are focused on you at this moment." The blood knight said with a tone of voice. Some teasing.

"I know." Knight Yao gave an affirmative answer.

On that empty street, a tied-up truck driver, a parked large truck, Alpha, and a white-collar-looking Kuranta stood here, the lightless golden man Kuranta, it seems that he wants to ask Alpha something.

131.Undecided future part.1

"Good evening, Maena, I haven't seen you for a while." In front of Maena, a light flashed across Alpha's body, and she changed back to the image she used when she first met him.

Seeing this scene, Ma Enna nodded calmly, "Indeed, it's been a while since we last met."

"Excuse me, do you have anything to do with me?" Just as Alpha asked, several war knights appeared on this street. They quickly walked over and took away the big man who had been tied up and hooded. truck driver.

Alpha felt that no answers could be found from these poor people, and in the end, those who could be found out and punished were probably just a few small managers who had offended others.

They are just ordinary people who have long been alienated and have been tortured by life and work. Although they can already visually see the marching queue of the Knights of Glory, they are still stepping on the accelerator to accelerate forward.

The war knights who took the suspect away saluted Ma Enna. It could be seen that even though Ma Enna had never had the status of a knight, Ma Enna still enjoyed a high reputation among the war knights. The Silver Spear Pegasus seemed to respect him. His brother respected him as much as his father.

"Some poor people, if you check the distribution orders and delivery contracts in their hands, their motives for behavior will be obvious, or there is no motive at all." After the knights left, the uncle looked at the car that was driven by Alpha He waved his hand and stopped the big truck in the middle of the road, and said with some sigh.

"Oh?"

"The company ordered them that they must take this road tonight and deliver the goods on time, otherwise they will lose the jobs they rely on to make a living. It's that simple."

Alpha looked at the tired-looking blond Pegasus with serious eyes. Alpha immediately understood what he said, "I understand, they will not refuse..."

"How could they refuse? After years of hard work and the shaping of enterprises and society, they have changed from a person with ideals and goals to a machine that can only work numbly because of debt and family. The only pastime And entertainment is to squander your hard-earned blood and sweat on the knightly competition that has no glory at all. In Casimir, there are many people like this."

"You know Casimir so well, Ma'na."

"I have endured this kind of life for ten years. If I hadn't still cared a lot, I would have fallen into their trap long ago." Ma Enna's eyes were slightly closed and her brows were furrowed, but even if she didn't look at his expression, Just by listening to his tone, Alpha could hear his anger and helplessness towards Casimir.

"It's really not easy for you, Maena. I know what you have been through these years." Looking at this supposedly proud Pegasus, Alpha actually had more than just a relationship with him. He was operating in the image of chief During the affairs of Brilliant Shield Industry, she met Ma Enna in more than one external meeting. In ten years, he went from an ordinary clerk to a senior clerk, able to follow his boss in and out as a small follower. There are some relatively important meeting occasions, but it can be seen that neither his colleagues nor his leaders have a very good attitude towards him.

But he had to do this. The Linguang family in Casimir was already declining. The people who had the greatest potential to run the family, namely his brother and sister-in-law, disappeared from the world because of a mission, leaving behind the old Cyril and Two young daughters.He had to hide his edge, imprison himself in Casimir's commercial craze, and use the rules of the workplace to bind his soul as a knight who longed for chivalry and freedom, in order to protect what was left of the Linguang family. .

The Linguang family is just a microcosm of the declining old military aristocracy in modern times, and they are also the group in the most difficult situation. Because they insist on the glory and virtue of the knights of the past, they refuse to be contaminated by the filth of money. This side has saved Kagome more than once. Simir's family flag.Fortunately, the sacrifices made by her uncle allowed the Linguang sisters to at least spend a relatively peaceful and stable childhood, and still have a simple belief in those virtues and honors.This is already a rare thing for the Linguang family, which is declining day by day.

"I remember, your name is Alpha." Maena looked at Alpha's movements. As an excellent warrior, he captured the details, which made him understand the "only one-sided" friend of Margaret in front of him. , resulting in a strange sense of déjà vu, as if the two of them had met somewhere before they met for the first time. "There is one thing that I wonder if Ms. Alpha can answer for me."

"You say it."

"Besides that time when I was delivering a letter to my niece, have we met somewhere else?"

"Yes, we have met at the bidding meeting and consultation meeting of Huihuang Shield Industry."

Maena nodded. After seeing Alpha's ability to change body shape and these affirmative words, a suspicion that had been doubted before took shape in his mind. "I guess you are the director Colliver who is now in charge of Brilliant Shield Industries, right?"

Alpha nodded noncommittally.

"You came to Casimir, invested in and eventually controlled a company that occupies an important market position in Casimir, but you were not eager to make a lot of money from it, but you were really doing something that had never been done before. Something. This is not in line with my understanding of the world’s views on interests..."

"I have never come here for profit. This land is facing unprecedented turmoil, and I want to do something for Casimir so that the people of Casimir will have more confidence in the challenges they may face in the future. More chances to survive." Alpha sighed, "It's just that this is the first time I use the chess pieces in my hand to face a vast contemporary country. There are many things, and it is not as smooth as I originally planned. . There are still too few things that I can change with just the energy I create in society."

Hearing Alpha's answer, Maena's frown relaxed. Before hearing these words, he had speculated Alpha's purpose of coming to Casimir from various angles more than once, but the answers he got , cannot satisfy himself.On the contrary, Alpha's prophecy-like words, although they sounded a bit shocking, were actually consistent with what she was doing.

"Margaret once mentioned you to me and the things you have done. I believe this is the decision you will make..." Uncle nodded slightly to Alpha, "Thank you very much for your willingness to answer me. .”

"There is no need to be polite to me. You are Margaret's elder. I should be more polite."

For those who work hard, one or two polite words are enough. Then the uncle asked Alpha about the "upcoming turbulence and challenges" she said.

Alpha picked up some things that were suitable to say now and gave them to him. Just at this time, Gladia came over, and she introduced the consul lady from Agor to Maena.

Meeting an ocean visitor in Casimir surprised Maena. Because with Alpha as the introducer, Gladia did not show too much indifference or arrogance. She was very serious. After taking a careful look at the blond Kuranta in front of him, the two shook hands and considered each other acquainted.

Maena, who had lived inland for a long time, had little understanding of the threats in the ocean, but after listening to the two of them, this shrewd and capable warrior quickly realized the seriousness of the problem.

As for other issues such as Ursus and Victoria.The uncle who has a close relationship with the knights on the expedition knows to some extent that he will worry about the country, but Casimir's external worries cannot be explained clearly in one sentence. Basically, it can be said that he has too many lice and is not itchy...

132.Undecided future part.2

The brief chat was interrupted by a sudden phone call. Maena smiled apologetically and said that he would step aside and answer the phone.

"Hey, Ma Enna, the company has an urgent business now, please come back and work overtime as soon as possible."

"it is good."

"Maena, I heard that there are knights looking for you today. I don't want your personal affairs to affect your work. Do you understand?"

"will not."

"Then come to the company quickly and be here within 10 minutes."
