Uncle, I am not an ordinary office worker.

Roy felt his blood boiling like never before (physical).

PS: OMG, I didn’t bring my charger back to school, and now my phone has become a brick

Volume 1: Chapter 172 Secondary Projection

The sea is roaring.

The gray sky was covered by a layer of mist, and endless waves rolled forward, seemingly endless. The deafening yet monotonous sound of the tide always echoed in my ears. On the sea surface without any signs of life, a knight was riding his unrecognized warhorse and charging forward madly.

His figure can be seen wherever a wave rises, and his help can be seen whenever a wave is crushed. He keeps running endlessly on the empty sea, like a sensible beast, constantly releasing his excess energy until the huge waves completely subside, or he dies of exhaustion.

The Last Knight, as described in Casimir's most famous chivalric novel, is a noble warrior who, after dedicating his life to the peace of his homeland, resolutely embarks on a journey to a foreign land, just to defend the land of mankind from an unknown enemy. His name is no longer known, and he himself does not care. Only the squire he took with him once brought back his spoils from the foreign land, which proves the hero's dedication and greatness.

The novel is adapted from the legend of Casimir, and legends are often based on real history.

When Roy watched Skadi take out the scarlet diamond-shaped "key" from the ancient sarcophagus, the blood in his body and every cell began to stir uncontrollably, and endless power seemed to surge out of it, suddenly dragging him into this illusion.

He stood on the sea, the waves rose and fell, the sound was like thunder. The salty sea breeze brought a biting chill, and the dark blue sea water soaked Roy's clothes almost instantly. He suddenly came to his senses, just realizing that the scene in front of him was a little familiar, and the next second, a dark figure blocked the sky above his head, which made it difficult to distinguish between day and night.

"land!"

Roy reacted almost instantly. This was the projection he saw when his [Lone Rider] module evolved into the [Last Knight] module.

At the end of that projection, he met the last knight in the endless sea. If I guessed correctly...

Roy turned his head sharply, facing the rain-like splashes of water that were thrown up by the waves that were broken by the spear, and he saw the figure moving forward.

The last knight leaped up, still wearing the dark blue full body armor without even a crack on his face, still emitting a terrifying aura of rejection, still riding the sea horse that had been transformed into a monster, or was itself a monster, but this time, he was no longer silent, and the whole world was no longer silent. The ocean roared, responding to the provocation of the last knight. The huge waves rose again, and countless shadows seemed to be mixed in the huge waves, smashing towards the charging knight, like a punishment from God, punishing this rebel who was in the sea but shouted for the land.

"boom!"

There was another deafening bang, and only a buzzing sound remained in Roy's mind. The splashing water made it almost impossible for him to open his eyes, but he still forced himself to look forward.

He remembered this scene. This was what he saw when the last projection ended.

The last knight broke through the first huge wave, followed by the second and the third. Behind the huge wave was the shadow of a beast that was as majestic as a god, yet extremely blasphemous.

Last time, his projection came to an abrupt end here, but this time, since he saw the sequel of this scene again with the help of the scarlet key, Roy must not miss this opportunity.

"Sea, kill the sea!" The last knight roared, and this twisted cry actually overwhelmed the roar of the sea tide. He raised the plain spear in his hand high, without any skills or Originium skills, and stabbed it straight into the waves. And the huge waves actually shattered!

Roy could hardly believe his eyes. It was not pierced, but shattered. The wave was like a porcelain bottle hit by a bullet. It exploded instantly with the point where the spear met the wave as the center, and water splashed everywhere. Roy wanted to use the adjective "shattered to pieces" to describe it, because it seemed that the wave did not hit the last knight, but hit a piece of land.

The waves exploded, but what splashed out was not all seawater, but also smelly blood that dyed the seawater red. Those were the terrifying fish hidden in the waves. They were swept away by the waves, using their stratum corneum and even their own bodies as a barrier, hoping to block the charge of the last knight. But as Roy saw, their shattering was even faster than the waves dispersing.

At this moment, the figure hidden behind the waves finally revealed its true appearance——

"Roy!"

There was a dull thud, as if a huge wave had hit him directly on the head. Roy felt a sudden pain and felt dizzy. The illusion in front of him dissipated like a mirage, revealing the worried face of the person in front of him.

Skadi put down the giant sword in her hand and reached out to rub Roy's head, as if she was afraid that she would use too much force and make Roy unconscious instead of waking him up. But after rubbing twice, she noticed the meaningful look Roy gave her.

"Don't blame Miss Skadi. I asked her to do this."

Margaret's voice came from behind. She held the war hammer in her hand and explained to Roy:

"Just now, after Miss Skadi took out that diamond-shaped object, you suddenly became motionless as if you were possessed. You didn't respond when I called you or when she called you. You didn't even respond when I hit you with a hammer. I had no choice but to ask Miss Skadi to use more powerful stimulation methods."

She added,

"I did remind her to use the back of the sword."

"Thank you. Without the sword back I would have been broken in half by now."

Roy rolled his eyes and complained.

Wow, you guys really know how to grasp the timing. It was just a little bit off. Do you know what it feels like to be interrupted halfway through a plot? I want to go to your house with a knife and urge you to update the content.

But is this also some kind of foreshadowing?

Roy slightly side-glanced at Skadi, who was standing aside with an apologetic look on her face. Why did he not feel anything when Margaret hit him, but when Skadi hit him, he immediately woke up, and it was just at that moment that he was about to see the true face of the black shadow?

The first person he saw when he opened his eyes was also Skadi.

It couldn't be that Skadi was more ruthless.

Roy couldn't help but smile bitterly. Didi, it's not me who is possessed, it's you.

Now I dare not let you run around anymore. Just stay with me obediently.

"It's okay, take this with you, and our mission will be over."

"Yeah, but there are still so many treasures here." Margaret pointed into the cave. Next to the sarcophagus, a large number of gold coins and antiques were piled up like a mountain. "Just leave them like this?"

Roy pondered for a moment and said, "Yeah, we have to find a way to deal with it. I can think of a good place."

Whether I can play virtual reality games on Terra depends on this time.

Volume 1: Chapter 173: Gu Family Men and Gu Family Women

If there is any place in Terra that is the most suitable place for a time traveler to be born, then Colombia must have a place. As one of the few pure emerging capitalist countries on Terra, Colombia is closer to Earth in terms of national system, ideology, and social living conditions. If you are born in Victoria, you may be bombed by the Grand Duke's army. If you are born in Letania, you may be used as a spell material by the tower warlock. If you are born in Rem Billiton or Ursus, you may go directly to the black mines. Only if you are born in Colombia, this country does not care about your identity and is willing to accept any desperate people.

In fact, if you are talented enough or ruthless enough, you can even do well in this country where wealth rather than bloodline is used to distinguish between high and low status.

When Roy first crossed over, he had thought about escaping to Columbia. After all, the work of the No-Hero Alliance was too dangerous. He didn't know much and his ability was limited. Standing in this almost villainous position, if he really encountered the legendary park bench plot in the future, he might not be able to survive under the swords of his uncle and Shining. However, the unlocking of the [Kal'tsit's Riddle] module and Xuantie's tolerance to Qingjin made him give up this idea - since there is a relatively high and safe starting point, why abandon everything and go to a foreign country to start over?

After all, as a local, I could have lived a more or less comfortable life in Casimir. If I had, who knows what Colombia would be like now. What if I was caught in the pioneering team by accident?

Not to mention finding Rhine's life, he would probably have to think of a way to save his own life.

However, despite this, he still kept an eye on some of the developments in Columbia. For example, Saria and Christen founded Rhine Life, the old goat Parvis and Ferdinand, who seemed to be more of a businessman than a researcher, joined as authorities in Originium research and life sciences, and Rhine Life expanded rapidly. The Originium Technology Application Department was finally established, and the director was a young scholar from Zalak who jumped to the company.

This rat is the one that Roy has always been paying attention to.

In Roy's previous life, humans' conception of the virtual world had never disappeared. Various television shows, novels, and animations had endless speculations and fantasies about the virtual world, but without exception, they were all just in the category of "science fiction". Only in Terra, Dorothy Franks, the director of the Originium Technology Application Department, truly did this - she created the prototype of the virtual world.

The people on Terra might not realize the great significance of this achievement. Even a shrewd fellow like Ferdinand only regarded it as a bonus for making super weapons. But Roy knew that a scientific product that could connect human brain consciousness and allow people to live together in one "world" was epoch-making in every aspect.

Scientists can use it to improve experiments, soldiers can use it to test weapons, and politicians can open up new "territories". Even from the perspective of the mysticism of Originium technology that coexists with Terran science, this invention can't help but remind people of another taboo ability - the ability that can also sum up people's emotions, known as the [Demon King].

Compared to the Demon King, virtual reality technology can even go a step further...

Of course, it is too early to say all this now. Rhine Life was founded less than ten years ago, and Dorothy joined only a year ago. The situation of ten departments coexisting has not yet been formed. This is the best time to poach talents.

Roy rubbed his chin and looked at the mountain of wealth.

If these gold coins, jewelry and antiques were sold, Roy's wealth would instantly increase several times. This was not an exaggeration. After all, even Big Bob, an infected person, was able to open a brewery in Colombia and even run a booming business after obtaining part of the treasure.

You know, it's not easy for foreign companies to survive in the fiercely competitive Colombia. Big Bob is just an infected person, and Roy doesn't think he has such a high business talent. The answer can only be "he has enough money."

"I'll give Maenna a call... No, forget it."

Roy thought about it and gave up the idea of ​​revealing the wealth to Mahenna.

My uncle seems to be very short of money recently. He just finished renovating the house and recently spent all his annual leave in one go. It can be said that he has no savings left. I guess he will have to rely on Sofia for support in the near future. It is better not to give the money to him for safekeeping.

It’s not that I think Mainna will take it, but mainly because Roy is a kind person and he can’t bear to show it off in front of Mainna.

After thinking for a while, Roy took out his anonymous phone that he hadn't touched for a long time, gestured to Margaret and Skadi, walked to the corner, and dialed Monique's number.

The call was quickly connected, but the voice coming from the other end was not Monique's, but Xinteleya's somewhat excited question:

"Master, is that you?"

"Little Platinum?" Roy was stunned for a moment, then asked nervously, "Why did you answer the phone? Is Monique in trouble?"

Xinteleya explained with some jealousy: "Lady Monique is washing up. She just came back from a mission. We live together in the same apartment you used to live in."

Roy finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked curiously, "Isn't that place a hotel? How did it become an apartment?"

Xintelaiya said, "It's because you, Master Roy, have been making too much noise recently. The Great Knights have been overwhelmed with tourists these days, and the hotel is fully booked every day. This hotel is also our No Clan Alliance's property, and there are many secrets. It was originally opened to hide from the public, but now there are too many people and it's a problem. Boss Xuantie bought this building and converted it into our company's employee dormitory. You know, it's a Originium Cloud household product."

Roy was really surprised. He had lived in that hotel for so long, but it was the first time he knew that it was actually the property of the Wuzhou League. This old man Xuantie really had a lot of hidden things.

But he is quite capable. With the help of acquisitions, he cleaned up this industry by transferring money from one hand to the other. On the surface, he said that he would convert it into apartments to provide benefits to employees, but he must have also taken advantage of the Business Federation in secret - after all, that group of people are now trying to disgust the Wuzhou Alliance in various ways.

I just don't know what their expressions would be if they knew that the person who acquired Wuzhou League's industry was actually Wuzhou League's leader Xuantie.

With a smile on his face, Roy brought the topic back to the point: "Since you are here too, Little Platinum, I don't have to call you again. To make a long story short, I have dug up a treasure here, and I have a sum of money that I am not comfortable leaving to others, so I plan to ask you to keep it for me and help me make an investment. As for the amount..." Roy estimated, "It is estimated to be several million."

The prices of gold coins and jewelry will not fluctuate much, but antiques are not as easy to sell as imagined. There are not many people who know the value of antiques, and even fewer who know the value of antiques, want to buy them, and have the money to afford them. Roy's estimate is already a low estimate. If there is no rush and the treasure is auctioned, it may be worth tens of millions.

Xinteleya felt her scalp tingling when she heard this, but she was also somewhat delighted.

The reason why I feel numb is that Master Roy went out for a stroll and actually got so much money. Could it be that he secretly robbed the treasure house of the director of the Business Federation?

I was happy because Master Roy didn't think of giving such a large sum of money to anyone else, but chose to let me help keep it. What kind of trust is this?

It turns out that the master is a good man who cares about his family!

Xinteleya agreed immediately, and her tone was like that of a family woman who helped Roy manage money: "I will inform Master Monique later, and then I will arrange for someone to count and transfer the money. Master Roy, do you want to keep some operating funds?"

Roy shook his head: "No need."

The biggest goal of his trip, the key to the last knight, had already been obtained, so money was no longer that important.

Hearing that the kitchen in Rhode Island is pretty good, he wants to go to Rhode Island to eat and drink for free!

Volume 1: Chapter 174 Let's speak frankly

Rhode Island, Medical Department.

Shining usually doesn't go to work. She came to see Kal'tsit for another purpose. Kal'tsit had just finished an operation. She looked a little tired when she walked out of the operating room, but she was stubborn and refused to show it. She was not surprised to see Shining waiting in the office. She washed her hands as if she had expected it, sat on the chair, and asked:

"Are you here to say goodbye?"

Shining's hand reached for the long sword placed beside the sofa. The dead wood-like sword emanated a radiant green light, filled with the breath of life. She slightly pulled the long sword out of the scabbard, letting a wisp of mysterious soul breath seep out from it, mixed with the green light, thus adding a calming and relaxing feature to this ordinary healing spell. The green light then drifted towards Kal'tsit, who did not dodge, still surrounded by the light, and took a long breath of relief. Her tired face was immediately swept away, and she became energetic again.

Shining then put away his sword and said softly in a gentle voice:

"I can't hide it from you."

"You didn't mean to hide it from me. You've been purchasing supplies for the long journey during this period. How could Lucille not know?"

Kal'tsit said. She knew everything that happened on Rhodes Island. In addition to the fact that she remembered every detail of the ship by heart, it was also because Kal's head of the purchasing department and chief engineer acted as her eyes and ears.

It is worth mentioning that given Kal'tsit's eccentric personality, this responsibility should not have been given to her. Unfortunately, the other blood demon chosen by Kal'tsit was even more frivolous. In comparison, Kal'tsit seemed much more pleasing to the eye.

But there was no need to explain this to Shining. Kal'tsit picked up the medical diagnosis report of the newly infected person and continued to ask:

"Aren't you going to wait for Margaret Linguang to come back?"

Shining smiled slightly and shook his head: "Isn't she already being taken care of by someone?"

Kal'tsit glanced at Shining and nodded.

Yes, the recent commotion in Casimir was so big that almost the entire earth knew about it. Although Shining basically only focused on the affairs of the Sarkaz and the infected, it was not completely isolated from the world.

The Knight of Eternity Roy and the Knight of Glory Margaret Linguang led the Knights of War and defeated the Third Army of the Ursus Empire at the Baibo River, shocking Terra. Although most people, including Kal'tsit, felt that this record must be exaggerated, but no matter what, the Ursus people did suffer a crushing defeat, didn't they?

Otherwise, the great nobles in Ursus would not have remained silent about the current vigorous anti-counterrevolutionary movement in their country - they were originally granted titles based on military merit, and after a war like this, they really have no face to speak.

It is estimated that Fedor will be able to suppress a lot of opposition forces this time, and by then a powerful Ursus may appear on the earth again.

Kal'tsit frowned slightly, not knowing whether she was sad or happy.

But she quickly brought her scattered thoughts back on track and nodded to Shining:

"I have no reason to stop you. You can leave at any time, but before you leave, you still need to inform Amiya."

"No matter where you go, Rhodes Island will always be open to you. This is the consistent attitude of Amiya and I."

Shining nodded. She could hear the solemnity in Kal'tsit's words. This solemnity also came from the last wish of another leader of Rhodes Island, or Babel Tower, who was no longer there. Kal'tsit never forgot.

Kal'tsit made a cup of instant coffee with hot water, looked at Shining who was getting up and preparing to leave, and said:

"Although there is no need for this, out of curiosity, I still want to ask, where are you going?"

Shining turned his head and answered, "Londinium."

Kal'tsit's expression suddenly became serious. Her brows were furrowed, and her tone became visibly colder. She asked, "Are you going to find your relatives, or Tracy?"

The internal power struggle in Victoria made a Grand Duke who was on the verge of defeat decide to take a risk. His act of bringing Sarkaz mercenaries into Londinium City to quell the rebellion was used by the usurper Regent Tresis, and he died in a suspicious exchange of fire. The Sarkaz led by Tresis took this opportunity to occupy the capital of the Victoria Empire, the largest mobile city on earth, Londinium, the City of Ten Thousand Cities, and manipulated the city council to replace the dead with the dead, intending to rebuild the Sarkaz Kazdel on the territory of Victoria.

At this time of national crisis, the grand dukes of Victoria once again demonstrated their great shortcomings and virtues, disregarding the capital and the people, and carrying forward the tradition of infighting. As a result, Victoria, known as the most powerful country on earth, became a loose sand, with the territory divided into four parts. The dukes were dukes in name but kings in reality. The civil strife continued, and no one raised an army to rescue.

I wonder if the nobles in Londinium who hanged the Lion King will miss the time when Victoria was still a united country when they are now facing the butcher knife of the Sarkaz hanging over their heads.

Now, Tresis has issued a call to all the Sarkaz on the earth, and in the name of the [Demon King], he invites the ten great Sarkaz courts and all the tribesmen who are determined to revive Kazdel and rebuild the glory of the Sarkaz to go to Londinium to join in the event. Shining went to Londinium at this critical juncture, and even if Kal'tsit claimed to believe in Shining, she had to be more cautious.

Shining naturally understood what Kal'tsit was worried about. Just as she was about to explain, the door of the medical department's office was knocked again, and Amiya's crisp voice came from outside the door:

"Teacher Kal'tsit, are you there?"

Kal'tsit glanced at Shining, pursed her lips, and said to Amiya outside the door:

"Amiya, come in."
