Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

"Hey, we've been spotted! Run!"

Qi Yan's plan to pluck the feathers was exposed, so he quickly fled the scene with his younger sister.

Bald Martin watched the brother and sister leave, smiling as he muttered to himself:

"They're all good kids. It seems my previous anxiety was just an illusion."

In the arena, Mob the Big Mouth was still commentating on the exciting moments of the previous match.

Meanwhile, the audience in the stands had already fallen into a near-mad frenzy, shouting the name of the Radiant Knight at the top of their lungs.

Nearl wore her new battle armor and held the knight's sword and spear that Maria had made for her beside her.

Ignoring the shouts around her, she bent down and reached out her hand to the fallen knight on her left.

"It is an honor to face you again, and I look forward to our next duel."

The left-handed knight looked at Nearl's outstretched hand, his feelings too complicated to describe.

He had already been defeated once when the Radiant Knight appeared. He thought that after so many years, his rematch with the Radiant Knight would be a battle for revenge.

But to his surprise, he never dreamed that he would lose even more miserably this time!

I don't need your pity!

The left-handed knight stubbornly ignored Nearl, struggled to his feet, and limped away from the arena alone.

Lin Guang slowly withdrew his outstretched hand and sighed silently.

She then turned and walked toward the exit where she had withdrawn from the competition.

At that moment, she had no idea what awaited her outside the arena.

(Yay! Last day of the month, perfect attendance bonus, got it!)

(The Kazimierz event officially kicks off next month, let's get this going!)

Chapter 409 Equality for All Flashbang

As far as the eye can see, there are only dark, dense heads.

There were also a lot of cameras clicking away, the flashes making Lin Guang feel like his title of Radiant Knight was about to be taken away.

"Sir Radiant Knight, please respond: do you intend to become the spiritual leader of the Infected Knights?"

"Your Excellency, the Radiant Knight, someone witnessed you in close contact with several Sarkaz. Who are they to you? Please explain!"

"Your Excellency, Knight of Glory, do you have anything to say about the upcoming competition? Rumor has it that the White Knight, whose reputation has skyrocketed today, is constantly using you as a role model to promote himself. Do you have anything to say in response?"

Lin Guang squinted, trying to push his way through the crowd:

"Excuse me... Could you please move aside?"

Her silence did not deter the reporters; instead, they surged even more fiercely.

During this period, Linguang has never given any interviews and leaves immediately after each match. They finally got this opportunity, and even if Linguang beats them up, it's impossible to drive them away.

If they really manage to break down Linguang's defenses because of their noise, then they will be even more excited.

This means that a shocking news story is about to be revealed.

Looking at the reporters who were so excited that they were almost unrestrained, Lin Guang felt completely overwhelmed.

"I won't answer your questions," Lin Guang said bluntly. "Please move aside, I'm leaving."

"Sir Radiant Knight, are you tacitly agreeing to those issues?"

The reporters became even more excited and kept digging holes for Lin Guang.

Lin Guang was not good at speaking, and now, being pressured by a group of reporters, he was sweating profusely.

Just then, a group of people suddenly squeezed in from behind.

The group was surrounded by bodyguards in black suits and sunglasses, who used highly professional crowd-squeezing techniques to easily separate the crowd.

This is their only job because their employers don't need them to protect them.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Lord Rinko."

The blonde Elafian woman slowly approached Nearl, offering a polite smile.

"Who are you?" Lin Guang was somewhat unfamiliar with this gentle and graceful woman.

But the reporters around him were no strangers to him.

"Candle Knight Drost! The Candle Knight is waiting for the Radiant Knight outside the arena!"

"Quick, give me the schedule... Yes, they'll meet on the field later... Take a picture, this is big news!"

The sound of camera shutters clicking incessantly, and the flashes almost turned the scene into a blur of white light.

Nearl and Candle Knight both narrowed their eyes.

They suddenly felt a pang of envy for the bodyguards around them; sunglasses were such an important thing.

"Can we talk in private for a moment?" The Candle Knight leaned close to Nearl's ear, his breath sweet as orchids. "You don't want to be bothered by the media any longer, do you?"

Lin Guang was a little dazed: "Ah... um, I understand, let's go somewhere else."

The Candle Knight smiled and waved to signal his team of bodyguards to get to work.

The group of bodyguards in black immediately straightened their faces and formed a human wall to push aside the struggling reporters.

The reporters were like a bunch of chicks, jostled and pushed around by the strong bodyguards.

The Candle Knight turned to the side, gesturing for the Radiant Knight to walk alongside her.

Seeing this, Lin Guang breathed a sigh of relief and quickly took a step to escape this scene, which was even more terrifying than facing Qi Yan directly.

But she soon realized that she had greatly underestimated how terrifying it was to confront Qi Yan directly.

"Radiant Knight! Your little white knight is here!"

Amidst the sea of ​​people, an extremely arrogant voice suddenly appeared, completely drowning out all the noise.

Everyone turned to look and saw Qi Yan with his hands on his hips, while Qi Lin covered her ears and kicked Qi Yan in the shin.

Qi Yan cried out in pain and quickly shut his mouth.

"It's the Little White Knight!"

The reporters were in an uproar.

"The Little White Knight has come too. Is he here to provoke the Radiant Knight?"

"Big news! Quick, take a picture! The first off-court clash between the Rookie King and the Radiant Knights!"

The reporters, who initially felt they couldn't outmaneuver the bodyguard team, unleashed their full potential, managing to close the gap once again, with flashbulbs going off wildly in all directions.

Lin Guang covered his eyes and let out a low groan of headache.

Qi Yan's eyes also hurt from the glare.

He wasn't as good-natured as Lin Guang; he immediately pulled out his staff and pointed it at the reporter.

"Which bastard is shaking me?"

"Oh! He's angry! The Little White Knight is angry!" The reporters, completely unaware of what they were about to face, became even more excited. "Is he going to attack us? Does he have the guts... Ah!"

Before the reporters could finish speaking, Qi Yan's staff erupted with red Originium Arts fluctuations.

The next second, a red glare far exceeding that of a flashlight erupted, accompanied by a piercing, high-pitched buzzing sound.

All the reporters screamed and collapsed to the ground, tears streaming down their faces, their ears ringing. For a moment, they didn't know whether to cover their eyes or plug their ears with their hands.

This minor spell was far too easy for the Witch King to control perfectly, targeting only the reporters while Nearl and the Candle Knight remained completely unharmed.

"Qi Yan, you...you mustn't hurt ordinary people!" Lin Guang blurted out.

Qi Yan kicked aside the reporters blocking her way and walked up to Lin Guang with a grin:

"Buddha said that all beings are equal. It doesn't make sense that only they can shake me, but I can't shake them. Besides, I didn't hurt them. If they go to the hospital for a checkup, they definitely won't find any injuries."

"Oh, isn't this the Candle Knight? Nice to meet you."

Qi Yan tucked the staff into his robes, reached out and grabbed the Candle Knight's hand, forcibly shaking it.

The Candle Knight witnessed the Witch King's magic for the first time, his eyes widening slightly, further confirming his judgment.

The little white knight in front of us has most likely inherited the power of that tyrant, or at least received his legacy!

Thinking of this, a deep sense of apprehension flashed in the Candle Knight's eyes.

"Little White Knight, it's an honor to meet you."

The Candle Knight forced a polite smile, pulled his hand away, and breathed a slight sigh of relief when he realized that Qi Yan hadn't forcibly grabbed him.

Qi Yan felt a little disappointed when his hands were empty.

I should have used an Originium before coming here...

However, Qi Yan quickly rallied, his tail almost leaving afterimages as he circled the Candle Knight and asked:

"Candle Knight, Candle Knight, I heard that you donate most of your personal earnings to Letania for charitable projects such as building schools. Is that true?"

I'm a fan of yours! I also spent some time in Letania and made quite a few friends there.

Would you like me to introduce you? It would be very helpful for your future work on charity projects.

"...Thank you for your kindness, but I don't need these at the moment."

The Candle Knight's smile was somewhat forced.

She was indeed somewhat interested in this young knight and intended to get to know him, but she didn't expect to find out that he was so outgoing and familiar when they actually met.

"It's alright!" Qi Yan patted his chest and assured him, "If you change your mind later, just come find me, and I'll personally go back to Letania."

"Let's exchange contact information, my phone number... oh, I don't have it, then add my younger sister."

The Candle Knight couldn't refuse, so he looked at Qi Lin for help, hoping this seemingly well-behaved girl could help him decline.

After all, we've only just met, there's no need to act so familiar...

While the Candle Knight stared blankly, the seemingly obedient girl obediently took out her terminal, obediently gave out her communication number, and obediently waited for the Candle Knight to make a call.

"I... okay."

The Candle Knight had no choice but to accept his fate.

Lin Guang stood there dumbfounded, watching Qi Yan circle around the Candle Knight.

Her titanium-alloy-like brain spun rapidly, slowly conjuring up a huge question mark.

Didn't you say you were coming to see me?

You call this coming to see me?

Chapter 410 Qi Yan's Connections

In the quiet, upscale restaurant, the elegant sound of a piano resonated in the ears of all the customers.

However, the customers present had no interest in appreciating the beautiful music, or even in chatting quietly with their companions.

Their gazes swept across the corner of the restaurant again and again.

There, four figures sat facing each other. Three of them were so beautiful that they seemed to outshine all the lights in the restaurant, becoming the most dazzling presence in the entire place.

But what really caught everyone's attention was Rupert, who was happily eating a whole steak with a fork.

"Great, great! This steak is really fresh. The chef's skills are excellent; it's much better than what I can grill myself."

Qi Yan murmured his praises as he chewed on his steak.

Nearl nodded with a wry smile in response, then looked at the Candle Knight beside him and said politely:

“Miss Drosst has gone to great lengths. Qi Yan’s personality is a bit unconventional, but he means no harm.”

The Candle Knight smiled and shook his head: "I thought that Lord White Knight would be as eccentric as the media had said... That's not wrong, but he's not annoying at all. On the contrary, he gives people a rare sense of authenticity."

Qi Yan swallowed the steak without batting an eye and said:

"That's right, I, Qi Xiaobai, play for real!"

"I'm a good man, I'm Qi Xiaobai, I... um!"
