Doctor Amnesiac, but not completely amnesiac

Sakaz.

And Kosche remembered very clearly that the man in front of him seemed to be in control of a race called Sarkaz.

Maybe, he really...

"......can I ask you something?"

"Excuse me."

"how old are you?"

"26, no, 27."

"?"

"what happened?"

Qiao Yelan looked at Kosice strangely.

"...No, it's nothing. I just asked too abruptly."

Black Snake shook her head and did not continue to dwell on this issue - she realized that she was just in a cooperative relationship with Qiao Yelan, and his willingness to talk to her about these things was already a sign of their deep friendship. As for deeper secrets, it was normal for the other party not to want to talk about them.

"If... I mean if, multiple countries exist side by side in the world, would that be a good thing for your research?"

"Why not? War and confrontation are always the best catalysts for technology. We don't have to worry about whether this technology is developed to destroy us - as long as everything in the world is moving forward steadily, it's good."

Qiao Yelan asked with a smile, and this question made Kosice silent for a long time.

How should we define the other party?

War maniac?

A research madman?

Savior?

Even Black Snake, who called himself a conspirator, couldn't find a suitable adjective for a moment.

However, Qiao Yelan did not care about Black Snake's thoughts. He had already used words to turn the evil spirits and the Originium into things that Kosciuszé would subconsciously oppose. After that, the other party should be more cooperative with Babel Tower's actions.

"Things in Ursus have come to an end. Next I have to go back to Leitania and then to Casimir - will you stay here or come with me?"

"I can understand going back to Leitania, but why go to Casimir?"

Kosice is a bit strange.

"Are you planning to have Ursus launch the eleventh Uka War?"

"No, it's because the conflict between the military and the merchants in Casimir has reached a point where it cannot be reconciled. You can compare it to Nicholas preparing to raise an army to violently attack Speaker Witte. Under the current situation, Casimir needs to remain stable so that Ursus can continue to restrain itself."

Isn’t this the six-part rebellion from back then?

"Casimir has fallen to this point..."

"Yeah, how about pyroxene?"

Qiao Yelan agreed nonchalantly.

"Of course I'm going with you. I told you I plan to stay with you for a while longer - are you ready? I'm coming in."

"Could you please stop using such strange terms - and don't possess me anymore, just stay in this form."

The man raised his hand to reject Kosice's move.

"why?"

"I need an expert to stand by my side and help me hold the fort. Babel Tower is undergoing a transformation recently, so many operators have things to do. On the contrary, I lack someone who can stand by me."

The woman sat down.

"can."

"Thank you for your understanding, Your Excellency."

"You don't have to call me Grand Duke, just call me Kashena - if you want to be a student, I can understand you better as an educator."

Qiao Yelan looked at the other person, and from his expression to his breath, something seemed to have changed.

"you......"

"I am Kashena, and I am also Koschei, the black snake that lives and dies with Ursus - neither form nor personality is necessary to me."

It's interesting.

Qiao Yelan thought about how these immortals spent their long years - split and unified thinking was naturally one of the methods.

"Okay, Operator Kashena, could you please be in charge of my protection from now on?"

"At your service, Dr. Qiao Yelan - how do you plan to travel next?"

"Before returning to Leitania, I need to finish the last remaining problem of Ursus."

Qiao Yelan knocked on the door of the cab.

"Change course eastwards - to Chernobog."

------------------------------------------------------------

Chernobyl, Boris Hospital.

This hospital, named after the lord of Chernobog, Marquis Boris, is the best hospital in the entire city of Chernobog. Of course, this best hospital will only serve the nobles and officials in the city.

A man was looking eagerly at the little guy lying in the incubator through the glass, doing actions that he knew would not be responded to, but he still enjoyed doing it.

"Is that your son?"

a voice sounded.

"How is it? Isn't it cute? That's my second child."

"Yeah, it's really cute. I hope he stays healthy and avoids Originium disease."

"Thank you for your blessing."

The man turned around and saw a man sitting in a wheelchair, with a well-built woman pushing the wheelchair from behind.

"Are you here to see your child, too?"

"I would love to have a child, but unfortunately, it is impossible - so I came to see you, Mr. Sergei."

The joy on the man's face faded slightly, and his expression became a little impatient.

"Didn't I tell you not to bother me during this period? I know my progress clearly. We can leave the second phase for the second phase!"

"I'm sorry, I'm here to inspect the first phase."

"Phase one? Hasn't the energy supply to Chernobog been completed?"

"Ah, I mean, I'm here on behalf of Dr. Kal'tsit to inspect the research project code-named "Sarcophagus" carried out by your team, led by Mr. Astrov."

The fear and shock on the man's face were so obvious that he seemed about to scream.

The reason why no sound was heard the next second was because the power brewing in the hands of the woman pushing the wheelchair was silently aimed at the incubator inside the glass.

Sergei almost stuffed his tongue into his trachea before he could barely control his emotions.

He suddenly knelt down in front of Qiao Yelan, tears streaming down his face.

"You can start your defense, Researcher Sergei, if you want your last words to be a plea for mercy - or you can think about the words on your tombstone, the words on your wife's tombstone, the words on your daughter's tombstone, and the words on your son's tombstone."

Qiao Yelan's smile was still gentle and elegant.

"You have three minutes."

"I had no choice. My wife was pregnant and I had a daughter! Marquis Boris threatened me with her life and the lives of the children - I really had no choice, I really had no choice!"

"Two minutes and forty-five seconds."

"I can compensate, compensate every researcher's family, I can borrow money, and I will definitely take responsibility—"

"Two minutes and forty seconds."

"Wait! Wait! I beg you! Have mercy! My daughters—my wife! I love them so much—I never thought it would be like this! The Marquis promised me! He said he would not kill them! He has broken his promise!"

"Two minutes and thirty seconds."

Sergei's eyes were red and foam was coming out of the corners of his mouth. He looked like a madman.

"You don't understand - if I don't do it! Others will do it - Astrov! Ilya! Don't they have families too! They have children too, they will do it too!"

"I'm sorry, they won't, because Astrov's wife Lilia, daughter Luisa, and Ilya's daughter Lyudmila have been under the protection of Babel from beginning to end, as have other research members with families. But you, Mr. Sergei, your file before you came here stated that you were unmarried."

Qiao Yelan coldly exposed the other party's fig leaf.

"I-I, I..."

"You say you love your wife and your children, and I believe that—but do you think your wife loves you?"

Sergei stared at Qiao Yelan blankly. His quick thinking and superb wisdom had disappeared at this moment. He could not understand what Qiao Yelan said.

Or rather, he was unwilling to think about what Qiao Yelan said.

But Qiao Yelan will not stop.

"Babel has always preferred to recruit researchers with families. Of course, some researchers who are dedicated to their research will also be recruited. This is because the danger and cutting-edge nature of our research cannot be used as a sacrifice by the upper class in their struggle for power and profit."

"Among the research team that came to Chernobyl, the three most core members are Astrov, Ilya, and you. Astrov and Ilya's families are all under the care of Babel, so they will not betray. Then who is the only person who might be seduced?"

It was the first time that Sergei was so frightened by a man's smile.

It was like the gate of hell opened.

“Please, please…”

"The Ursus intelligence system is well-known in this land, and the [Swallows] that have been trained are frequent visitors in storybooks and novels: the male protagonists can often make them fall in love with them, and let them betray them and live together with them - unfortunately, you are probably not the male protagonist."

“Don’t, don’t…”

“It would be hard for Dr. Kal’tsit to imagine that a person who is so obsessed with research could fall so easily into false tenderness. In the end, for this irresistible love, he even betrayed his colleagues and let them die under the swords of the nobles - and his wife was just accepting the task from her master.”

"Please, please stop talking..."

"Even when others put the facts in front of him, he still chose to bury his head in the dirt, thinking that this would make his wife really fall in love with him, and allow him to continue to use his self-proclaimed precious love and family affection to offset the guilt of betraying and killing his friends."

Sergei fell to his knees, curled up and cried loudly.

"You have—one minute and ten seconds."

As if he had finally woken up from a nightmare, he suddenly threw himself at Qiao Yelan's feet and grabbed the other's trouser leg tightly.

"I-I am willing, I am willing to do everything! Just ask you to let my child go! Please! Everything! Even assassinating Marquis Boris is my willingness!"

Qiao Yelan lowered her gaze and met the man's eyes.

Sergei shivered violently - as if he was pressed into the cold snow, his breath touched the hard ice, and then hit his face hard.

"You're willing to do everything?"

"everything!"

Seeing that things were taking a turn for the better, Sergei had no time to think about it and made a promise in ecstasy.

"I don't need you to assassinate Marquis Boris - you can continue to be your chief technology advisor, but in return, you must send all the intelligence you can get back to Babel Tower."

Qiao Yelan said lightly.

"You will become just like your wife, and continue to work for Babel, playing house with her, and don't let him doubt you, unless--"

"You hope your children will follow the same path as you and continue to pay for your betrayal."

"No - no! Absolutely not! I will do it well, I will do my best! Believe me! The Marquis trusts me now, I can see a lot of things, I will definitely do it well!"

As if he had grabbed the last straw, the man made the promise desperately.

"That's it, we will send someone to contact you - I look forward to the day when you can redeem your sins. In that case, Babel Tower will sponsor you a large sum of money to help you and your children fly far away."

"Okay! Ok!"

Qiao Yelan stretched out his hand and kindly pulled Sergei up from the ground.

"Please take care of yourself, Mr. Sergei. Your child has just been born. Keep smiling and don't let others get suspicious."

"How do you know his wife was a noble-trained [Swallow]?"

"I do not know."
