Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

The doctor and Amiya didn't talk much.

Or rather, once they knew Shining was by their side, they didn't need to talk anymore.

After Amiya and the doctor briefly discussed the treatment plan, they went their separate ways.

Gravel also returned outside to carry out his guard duty.

Not long after, a knight came to replace Gravel with instructions from the Grand Knight Commander and asked Gravel to meet with the Grand Knight Commander.

When Gravel met the kind old man, the Grand Knight Commander was reading a document intently.

"Your Excellency, Grand Knight Commander, I have arrived."

Li bowed respectfully to the Grand Knight Commander, whose honors were countless.

The Grand Knight looked up, and if the Doctor and Amiya were there, they would recognize him as the elderly knight who had personally led them to the hotel earlier, the woman who had treated Amiya with the gentleness of an elder.

"Senomi." The Grand Knight called out Gravel's real name softly.

Gravel quickly responded again.

The Grand Knight Commander's gentle smile deepened as he handed the document to Gravel, saying softly:

“I heard that you have not actually given your real name to your master. We only know your name, but we have not obtained your loyalty.”

Li took the document, but didn't rush to look at its contents. Instead, he answered the respectable old man first:

"Your Excellency, I was merely sold into slavery in Kazimierz. What connection does someone like me have with the act of offering my true name?"

"Is that so?" The Grand Knight smiled. "How have you felt about your interactions with Rhodes Island lately?"

"I believe I have gained some of Rhodes Island's trust."

Gravel tried to decipher the Grand Knight's meaning and said something that might satisfy him.

Unfortunately, her little scheme did not escape the notice of the older woman.

The Grand Knight Commander laughed even more heartily:

"It seems Rhodes Island has won your trust. They've done a good job. The information I just gave you was a gift to them; consider it... your pledge of loyalty."

Li was slightly startled: "I..."

"Senomi, don't rush to answer me." The Grand Knight said gently, "You did very well as a knight of conquest, but you are still so young, why restrain your thoughts?"

I know there are still many things you haven't figured out yet, about this city, about the infected, about the Supervisory Council and the Knights, and everything else.

Don't rush, take your time to find out for yourself; you have a long road ahead.

Li remained silent, slowly lowering her head to look at the document in her hand.

She was then so shocked by the contents of the document that she couldn't help but gasp:

"These materials are all classified information from the Oversight Council. Should we hand them over to Rhodes Island...?"

"Don't worry, I'm not senile yet." The Grand Knight interrupted Gravel with a chuckle. "The Unarmored Alliance has already begun its operation, and Rhodes Island has not disappointed me either; they have made the same choice I expected."

Gravel looked up in surprise.

Seeing the surprise in Gravel's eyes, the Grand Knight waved his hand:

"I didn't eavesdrop on Rhodes Island's conversations; I found this information myself."

This evening, a Rhodes Island team quietly entered the Grand Knights' territory without joining the other Rhodes Island teams at the hotel.

"This evening?!" Gravel exclaimed in surprise and confusion. "But... but as far as I know, Rhodes Island made that decision through Miss Amiya this evening."

The Grand Knight Commander was also somewhat taken aback when he heard the news.

But soon, the surprise in her eyes disappeared, replaced by admiration and appreciation:

“I understand now why Rhodes Island dared to leave Qi Yan, whom they had absolutely no control over.”

"Why?" Gravel asked curiously.

"Because... they genuinely believed in each other."

The Grand Knight Commander sighed, “Because they all know what decisions their companions will ultimately make, and they share a common goal that they will work towards without needing to communicate.”

Go, Senomi, go and tell Rhodes Island the attitude of the Supervisory Council.

We will not proactively help Rhodes Island; they must solve all the difficulties they encounter themselves and bear the consequences themselves, but...

The Supervisory Committee will fully support the Radiant Knights in winning the championship.

Gravel stared at the Grand Knight Commander before her, seemingly trying to see through his thoughts, while the Grand Knight Commander seemed to be looking for some anticipated future in Gravel.

Two generations of knights, one old and one young, silently completed a kind of inheritance ceremony.

Then, Li bowed silently, and with a completely different mindset than when she arrived, she strode out of the room with her head held high.

In the corridor, she turned her head to look at the window.

Gravel's shadow was reflected in the clear, pure glass, but Gravel's gaze pierced through himself, overlooking the magnificent city outside.

The lights made the city as bright as day, forcing even the stars in the sky to hide their brilliance.

But they are still there; they have never left.

All it takes is a trigger, and they will reappear above the city and be seen by everyone.

Chapter 431 White Frog Gold: All Alone, All Alone~

Little Platinum, have you ever thought about rebelling?

Little Platinum, have you thought about what your future will be like?

Little Platinum, over the years, have you ever made a choice that truly comes from your heart?

Little Platinum, now you can make a choice...

Platinum curled up in the corner of the room, looking pitiful and huddled together.

She desperately didn't want to recall Qi Yan's devilish whispers, but those voices seemed to have a magical power that she couldn't shake off.

"You bastard, what exactly do you want from me?"

Platinum felt she should be angry at being tricked, but she didn't even have the energy to be angry.

Since her failed assassination attempt on the doctor, she realized that it was all Qi Yan's prank, and her mental state has been somewhat broken.

The doctor didn't make things difficult for her, but whenever Platinum thought about what happened that night, and the doctor and Amiya's attitude after they found out that her actions were all instigated by Qi Yan, she felt a sense of frustration.

It's as if I've become the backdrop for other people's friendships, a little toy for them to tease at will.

"What's going on? Haven't you all realized that Qi Yan is a bastard?" Bai Jin said angrily. "Qi Yan is not normal at all. You still trust Qi Yan so much. Aren't you afraid that he will stab you in the back?"

Why can you all be friends with someone like Qi Yan? Why do you all have friends you can completely trust?

Platinum pondered this question for two whole days, from the night she escaped until now, when the competition between the Candle Knights and the Radiant Knights was about to begin, but she still couldn't find an answer.

Fortunately, Qi Yan hasn't bullied her these past two days, and he hasn't even mentioned the previous threat to kidnap the Lin Guang family.

But these past two days, Qi Yan has been asking a strange question every now and then.

Platinum is a bit tired.

This feeling of exhaustion had actually been there for a long time, clinging to her for years.

But these past few days, as Qi Yan continued to bully her, and after seeing the doctor's attitude, her sense of exhaustion grew stronger and stronger.

"I really want a vacation. When I'm on vacation, I can... what can I do?"

Platinum buried her face in her arms and said weakly, "First I'll get my nails done, then my hair... no, no, I'll just cover myself in the blanket and sleep like a log... no, anyway, I really want a vacation."

She was actually a little envious of Qi Yan.

It wasn't that I envied Qi Yan's freedom and extraordinary strength, but rather the boundless energy of this Lupo. It seemed that he could find something interesting every day, happily messing around with all sorts of random things all day long, completely tireless.

The knocking interrupted Bai Jin's train of thought.

"Platinum Master, Mr. Qi Yan has sent us to find you for work." A young man's voice came from outside the door.

Platinum responded weakly, got up, picked up a specially made light board, and opened the door.

Outside the door, two members of the Unarmored Alliance were waiting silently.

Platinum remembers these two people.

Every time Qi Yan holds a meeting, these two always cause trouble. The younger guy is always the one who talks recklessly and disrupts things, and then he gets a slap from the older guy.

Legends about these two had already begun to circulate within the Wuzhou Alliance.

Immortal Boy and Slapstick Warrior...

Slapman, looking humble, stepped aside to make way for Platinum:

"Platform Platinum, Mr. Qi Yan said he is waiting for you in the stands of the arena. Please go there as soon as possible."

Platinum nodded, picked up the light board, and left.

Behind her, the Undying Boy couldn't contain himself any longer and whispered to Slap Hero:

"Platform Platinum looks a bit tired. These days, Mr. Qi Yan has been taking her with him everywhere he goes. Is Platinum about to rise to a higher social status?"

Bai Jin stopped in her tracks, a nameless fire burning fiercely in her heart.

She was almost bullied to death by Qi Yan these past few days. What a load of crap!

Platinum turned around angrily, and then saw Immortal Boy being slapped away by Slap Man, falling headfirst into a trash can in the corner of the corridor.

platinum:"……"

"Platinum Master, this kid has gotten drunk, please forgive him." Slap Hero bowed ninety degrees. "I will teach him a lesson for you. You can go back to your work."

I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry!

Bai Jin didn't react, looked away, and quickly left the scene.

Even in a bastard assassin organization like the Unarmored Alliance, there are friends who trust each other.

It seemed that she, Hinterlea, was the only one all alone on this land.

When Platinum arrived at the arena's stands, filled with resentment, she found that all the Unarmored Alliance members designated by Qi Yan were already in place, all waiting for her alone.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the field, the two opposing teams were already in position.

Lin Guang looked at the beautiful woman holding a candle, who had a gentle and graceful demeanor. Although the two were opponents at the moment, she showed no hostility.

"We meet again, Radiant Knight. Good evening," Candle Knight greeted softly.

Lin Guang smiled and nodded: "Good evening."

The clamor of voices seemed to gradually dissipate, and at that moment, the two knights nodded to each other.

The two are rivals, but they are more like old friends.

As Lin Guang gazed at the Candle Knight, she suddenly noticed a striking group of people in the audience, and her attention was instinctively drawn to them.

The Candle Knight followed Nearl's gaze and couldn't help but cover his mouth and smile.

"It's the Little White Knight, and he's still like this...strange."

Lin Guang smiled and said, "It's only when he's not surprised that I'm surprised that he organized so many people to watch my match."

In the audience, Qi Yan held a glow stick in each hand, next to him was Monique, who was also holding a glow stick, and even behind him was a large group of members of the Unarmored Alliance holding glow sticks.

Every member of the Unarmored Alliance was dressed in a black suit and wore black sunglasses. They stood in a neat square formation, with the center position empty except for Platinum.

Platinum, leaning on a huge light sign, stood out starkly against the black sea of ​​darkness, her white hair and white clothes making her figure extremely conspicuous.

"When the match starts, his and those guys' shouts must be the best in the whole arena," the Candle Knight joked. "You must be very happy to have a companion like that."

A hint of pride flashed across Lin Guang's face, but he did not deny it:

"Qi Yan is indeed a companion I am proud of. I am happy to know him. I feel at ease as long as he is around."

"Even if he will meet you on this field in the future?" the Candle Knight asked.

“Even if we disagree, I will never doubt our friendship.” Lin Guang said confidently.

"It's so enviable."

As the host, Big Mouth Mob, announced the start of the competition, the Candle Knight used Originium Arts to light the candle in his hand.

Nearl also drew her knight's sword and spear, and Originium Arts transformed into a faint light that enveloped her.
