The Star Knight

Opal's time passed very slowly, until Collorin's footsteps sounded, the anklet collided gently with his metal shoes.

He turned to sit on the throne and fell into a long contemplation, without telling Opal the result.

"He exists." Opal said: "He exists, right? Tell me."

Opal stalked his neck, tears in his eyes, the tears were full of joy, and the impending punishment was insignificant. The news seemed to regenerate him in a short period of free time.

Freedom is the power of the soul.

Opal understood the words in the temple of stars at that moment, his body was imprisoned, but only at this moment his soul was free.

He no longer panicked, trying to invade Carolyn's thoughts with faith.

"I'm not sure." Caroline's belief blocked Opal's thinking from the barrier, and said coldly: "Continue to tell your story, it's dawn, Opal."

Opal: "There is no other content. The story ends here. When I arrived at the grip of the Xingguang, there were not many things in my life that nostalgia me. The only relatives are only teachers."

"Which teacher?" Caroline said quietly.

Opal smiled and said, "You still lose."

Dawn casts into the grip of the swirling light, and the crystal-clear palace refracts the magnificent colors of the sun, and then hides its flowing light, restoring the icy outer wall of the building.

Caroline got up in the last light, and the palace was dark at dawn.

He walked past Opal and said, "Come with me, I must figure it out."

Opal turned and walked behind him. Collorin entered the corridor and returned to the room, sorting out his black tunic king robe. Opal went to bring the metal boat shoes, kneeling on one knee and waiting for him to put it on.

Colleen looked at the scene in the mirror and looked down at him again.

Opal whispered: "Thank you for letting me confirm the truth, teacher, this is far more important than my own life, and I am grateful for this."

Caroline said in a deep voice: "You know better than my teacher, and thank you for all you have done for me, Opal, I am equally grateful to you. I believe that in addition to your love for Raymond, you have also been sincere. I loved me as a teacher. You should be thankful that you have now let go of your hatred. At this moment, your beliefs are still pure and not corrupted by darkness."

Colleen put on the boat shoes and said, "Bring your weapon and wait for me at the fountain. Before you are imprisoned in Iszul, I will still be your teacher, but don't play any tricks this time. , My patience is limited."

Opal went to get his weapon, changed to the same black clothes as Caroline, and stood in the sky garden waiting for him.

Colleen summoned Caesar directly out of the Hanging Garden, and ordered a few things, mainly about postwar work.

Caesar listened silently, then nodded and retreated.

The gluttony disintegrated and recombined in the early morning sunlight, appeared in shape, and opened the door.

Caroline took the opal to board the ship, the black spacecraft galloped away from the Iszul galaxy, and Opal stood in front of the porthole, watching this star that Caroline personally lit.

"Jumping target, Ivory Tower Proving Ground 2." The gluttonous voice sounded.

The spaceship appeared on a lonely, icy planet, and landed slowly.

"Proving Ground No. 2." Carolyn walked down the empty surface and said, "Is this what happened?"

Opal chased out of the spaceship and followed Caroline on the planet.

Caroline entered the laboratory and looked at all of this in disbelief. Opal turned away and ran down the abandoned big pit.

Hundreds of replicas' bodies have rotted into dead bones, but the skeleton of the remaining metal reflects the moonlight of the sky.

"Who made this?" Colleen muttered: "Isn't Test Site 2 the place where the nuclear magnetic destruction signal was originally launched?"

Opal knelt at the bottom of the huge pit of the corpse, picked up one of the rotten replicators, and said, "I don't know."

"I don't know..." Opal said to himself.

He touched the destroyed replica, as if he saw Raymond.

The sorrow spread, and the icy cold came over the entire planet.

Caroline said: "Does he have any remains left? Let me see."

Opal said: "Yes, there is a necklace, but it's not on me."

Caroline said, "Where?"

Opal: "Don't you read it yourself?"

Caroline: "Your memory world is blocked by Ledgerson, I can't read it!"

Opal: "It should be in the Sanctuary of the Stars, are you afraid of being a trap?"

Colleen directly used the power of faith to pull Opal up. Opal was thrown into the cabin with the replica's body, and the rotten replica was dragged out of Opal's arms mercilessly and thrown out of the cabin. .

Opal said loudly: "Let me keep it!"

At that moment he was pushed directly to the wall by a force, almost at the same moment, he could clearly feel the irrepressible anger of Korolin.

However, Opal was more courageous. He subconsciously withdrew his sword to resist Caroline while releasing his beliefs. The star field was overwhelming, and he intruded into Caroline’s mind, intercepting his thoughts at this moment-knowing him When I saw myself copying people, my mood was very complicated, and I even lost my usual calmness.

Opal, holding a big sword, pressed against Colleen's neck and said, "You are in fear."

"One point." Caroling restored his composure, with a little joking in his eyes and a little appreciation.

In this short absence, he was almost completely suppressed by Opal.

A little bit of opal can break through Carolyn's belief suppression, but he did not realize this at all, and the only instinct and impulse were only built on his own pure purpose.

He only wanted a copy person, took it back, and remembered it as Raymond's corpse, or buried it in the star, or held it to accept the imprisonment and punishment of the upcoming Korolin.

"I haven't felt this emotion for a long time," Colleen said. "Good, Opal, but do you want to continue now?"

Opal closed his sword and said, "Give me a corpse, something that I miss a little."

Caroline didn't answer, and Opal moved a duplicator's body back into the gluttonous cabin.

Colleen acquiesced in this move, closed the hatch, and set the jump route.

The spaceship jumped again and entered the planet of the muse. The wheat field was endless. When it landed, it decomposed into metal fragments, wrapped in the wind and flew to the temple. The gate automatically opened, and the glutton flew back into the temple, converging on the fifth altar. Prototype, standing in silence.

Caroline walked along the masonry road outside the Sanctuary of Stars. As he stepped up, Opal heard the echo of the organ in the Sanctuary-someone.

He slammed, with Legerson in it?

The light of the morning and evening lines on the skylight fell, and there was a person in front of the organ.

That's a girl: Jasmine.

The sound of the organ came to an abrupt halt, and the moment Jasmine got up flew into the air, accompanied by a scream.

"Let her go!" Opal yelled angrily.

The power of faith in the starry sky is in a violent wind, colliding with the power of lava of Korolin in the temple, and the power of Jasmine's faith is the wind!Opal tried his best to use the power of Jasmine to fight Caroline, but the two sides only touched, and Caroline recovered the power of his faith.

"You rebellious boy," Colleen said coldly: "This is the second time you have offended me."

Opal shouted: "I'm not afraid of you--! Don't hurt her! Or kill me now!"

Jasmine slammed down the altar, and Opal rushed over to see her.

She gasped and said, "Who are you?"

Opal said in her mind: [Don’t move, he won’t kill you.

Jasmine struggled to get up and pushed away the opal.

Caroline said lightly: "Go back and tell Legison, I'm going to kill him right away because he violated the bottom line I can't tolerate. Let him finish his singing before going to death, maybe in a few days. "

Opal breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Carolyn would not kill Jasmine by saying so.

Caroline turned into the hallway, and Opal chased up. Seeing Caroline standing at the door of his room, he seemed to be waiting for something, and it seemed to recall many things.

At that moment his thoughts were soft, so soft that he was undefended. Opal read many fragmentary memories. A long time ago, he ran in from outside the corridor, pushed the door open, called Rector to get up, and ran out to squat again. Commission the food processor and make a breakfast.

"You live in this room?" Collorin said.

"I only lived for a while." Opal said.

Colleen raised his hand and the door opened, and he watched everything familiar in the room, but did not walk in.

Opal entered, he opened the drawer and found what he left behind: E7 finally waited for its owner in the drawer, turned on the light, the camera started towards Opal, as if he found himself admitting the wrong person, the light dimmed in disappointment again .

"E7." Opal said.

E7 recognized the frequency of the sound, then turned on the lights excitedly, murmured, and came out of the drawer, planted on the ground with a clatter, Opal was about to reach out and put it away, but E7 got up on his own.It walked around Opal happily, the camera always pointed towards it.

Opal said: "E7, I'm back."

"Beep Beep—" E7 made a continuous sound.

Even Caroline smiled.

Opal's body is much smaller, he picked up E7, just like he was holding his only partner on B-11 when he was a child, E7's overhead light flashed for a while, as if he found a piece of memory and projected a tap dance, The actors on the screen sing songs.

Colleen said: "It is the same style as the robot Nolan gave me. What is this for?"

Opal smiled and said: "E7 thought I was a kid. When I was a kid, my mother went into the mine. It accompanied me at home and broadcasted this to me..."

Colleen looked at it for a while and said, "What else? Take something with you."

Opal took out an iron box and opened it with Raymond's necklace, two diaries of mercenaries, the identity cards of mercenaries, and heirlooms of Sid.

Colleen frowned slightly when he saw the ruby. Opal noticed something and said, "Do you know how this is used?"

Caroline did not answer, and then said: "Let's go."

Opal holding E7, handed the iron box to Caroline, Collorine did not pick up, said: "These are all your things, I will not take it for myself, you can enter the prison with Nirvana heart go with."

"What is Nirvana...the heart? This is it?" Opal said: "You hold it first."

Jasmine no longer knew where she was going, and Caroline didn't care about her. When she returned to the hall, she stood under the altar and looked up.

Stone sculptures of phoenixes and saber-toothed tigers stand icy, and the positions of dragon rays and star foxes are over.

Opal said: "Are these ancient gods changed?"

Caroline replied: "No, they are dead. The body is in a corner of the universe. This is the tombstone of the Phoenix and the Saber-tooth Tiger."

"I haven't been back in a long time." Caroline's voice echoed in the empty sanctuary: "Tao, do you want to stay a little longer?"

The eyes of the gluttons lit up, and then broke into pieces, wrapped around Caroline and Opal and rushed out of the temple. The gate closed smoothly after they left, as if nothing had happened.

The black spacecraft floated in the vast space, and Collorin's palm spread Raymond's necklace, looking at the light above his head.

Opal sat in the corner, turned on the E7 projector, and recalled every photo of himself with Raymond.Turning over one by one, with the rustling of the pages, Caroline's bipod was sitting on the console, sitting in a swivel chair. After a while, Opal attracted his attention and looked at the photo with him.

Opal looked at Raymond holding his breath in the water and appeared very funny features. Bubbles floated from the corner of his mouth. His hair floated in the water, like a black flame.

Skylight dropped from the top of the blue crystal throne, Opal closed his eyes and hugged Raymond's waist tightly.

"Water Blue Star." Caroline said.

"Yes." Opal turned his head with a smile, saw Colleen's profile, and unconsciously and habitually regarded him as Raymond, saying, "You kissed me for the first time in that mission."

Colleen put down the necklace, got up and walked over, stepping barefoot on the cold ground, kneeling on one knee, his expression cold and calm.

"You admit the wrong person." Collorin said: "That's not me."

Opal realized that he had a cognitive dislocation.

Not knowing why, he said stubbornly: "But it can also be said to be you, gluttonous said, that is you."

Caroline turned the picture forward and stopped at the moment when Opal and Raymond were kissing in the water. Opal added another sentence and said, "No, that is not you. That is my Raymond, he is just mine Robot, I don't think he is you."

Caroline didn't answer him. After a long silence, Opal regarded Caroline's existence as air, quickly turned over all the electronic pictures of him and Raymond, and felt that Caroline was a little annoyed beside him.

"I'll go to bed for a while." Opal said: "It's sleepy."

He climbed into bed and went to bed. Caroline took E7 aside and began to watch the clip between Opal and Raymond. The rustling page-turning sound accompanied Opal into sleep.

When he woke up again, Opal was so hungry that he pressed his back to his back. After washing, he asked, "Are you eating?"

Caroline stared at the starry sky outside the porthole, and there were two mercenary diaries in front of him, and Raymond's necklace.

"Did you find it?" Opal asked again.He no longer regards Caroline as Caroline now, or his image in his mind is no longer the same as before, but to be serious, Opal does not know that Caroline is for him now Whatever it is, it's just very complicated.

Caroline replied: "No, do some food."

Opal went to build the food machine, and he felt that the power of Caroline's faith enveloped every inch of space in the spaceship, like a pair of eyes, staring at him all the time.

After breakfast, Caroline stood in front of the obsidian.

"Calculate the overlap coefficient of the black hole's gravity field." Kolorin said: "Open a special route and send positioning waves."

The gluttonous voice replied: "passwords are required."

Colleen reported a series of numbers, and the voice of gluttonous sounded again: "passenger identity."

Caroline moved the light screen and pressed a few places, gluttonous said: "Response: refused to jump."

Carolyn frowned: "The reason for the request."

Gourmet: "The other party does not allow anyone but the Star Knight to visit."

Colleen pondered for a moment and said, "Tell them that Opal is the new apprentice of the Star Knight."

Gourmet: "Inherit identity."

Caroline: "Real Phoenix."

After a series of noisy radio waves, the central navigation obsidian lit up, and a woman's voice came.

"Collorin? What's the matter? What about Rector? Tell us your purpose."

Caroline said: "There is a question that needs to be consulted about the legacy of the dark age."

The woman's voice said: "Allowed to enter, but the attitude of the professors is not very good, Caroline, you better know what. Last time because of your misoperation destroyed the white night light wheel, Adam has still concealed Rake for you. special."

Caroline said: "That was Nolan's desperate mistake. I reminded him of it, and I have no way to persuade a fantasy star."

There was no communication there, Colleen said: "Prepare to jump."

The gluttonous voice said: "The pass code passes, the gravitational field effect is calculated, the space feedback can be jumped, and the spaceship volume needs to be gathered..."

The entire spacecraft couldn't help shrinking, Caroline stretched out his hand, looked at Opal, and Opal came slowly. Caroline hugged him around, and he gathered together to become an egg-shaped elliptical shuttle, leaving the center Obsidian shone with light.

"Start jump, jump destination, ivory tower."

That is the most unique transition method that Opal has ever encountered. Their bodies seem to be broken down into atoms and molecules, and they merge with each other in the sea of ​​matter. No one can tell who is who. The next moment, accompanied by a buzzing sound , Everything is back to its original state.

"Successful jump." The glutton automatically decomposed and turned into an anklet to return to Caroline. Opal looked around in surprise.

This is a huge spaceship. They stand on the very edge of the spaceship. There is a huge metal door on the side of the ship. Several steps extend from the front of the door to their feet.

They stood on the fringe outside the door. Opal turned to look behind him. It was dark behind him. He was startled and almost fell.

Caroline pulled him and said, "Be careful."

"What is outside?" Opal asked.

"There is nothing outside," Collorin replied: "There is no time, no space, it is a still area."
