Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

"Me? Haha..." The Blood Knight seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world. "An infected person fights for the infected, and an ordinary person fights for the infected. Who is more noble?"

If you persevere, someone will eventually understand this, but for now, your days ahead will be very difficult.

"Well, you should also count the fact that I 'forced' you into retirement."

Lin Guang made a self-deprecating remark.

She looked up at the audience, where Shining had already gained the upper hand in the battle with an overwhelming advantage.

Lin Guang looked again at the host's and judges' seats, where Mob was announcing her champion and the award ceremony arrangements.

But Lin Guang didn't hear a single word.

She suddenly remembered something her uncle had said.

'The knights of the Nearl do not need the approval of others to guide their way.'

“Decaeopolis, the place of investiture, the home of knights, the champion display wall in the champion exhibition hall,” Nearl suddenly spoke.

"Well, if you want to give them a hard time, you can skip the ceremony."

"No, that was just running away, just like when I left Kazimierz."

"……what you up to?"

"Let's go together."

The Blood Knight remained silent for a moment.

But the next second, he burst into a hearty laugh.

Amidst the laughter, the Blood Knight's voice was more joyful and relaxed than ever before.

"I'll play along!"

Chapter 492 Moving forward

"Next, please welcome the emcee—uh, wait! Something seems to be wrong!"

Mob was still doing his job as a host as usual, but then he was shocked by the actions of the two people on the field and exclaimed in surprise.

"The Radiant Knight ignored the master of ceremonies! She...she helped the Blood Knight towards the arena exit!" Big Mouth Mob's voice was distorted. "What does this mean!?"

"Does the Radiant Knight intend to share the championship with the Blood Knight?!"

Mob's exclamation startled everyone, and they all looked at the two figures who ignored the master of ceremonies and staggered toward the arena exit.

The two said that Nearl was helping the Blood Knight, but it was more like they were supporting and relying on each other.

This action did not move the angry infected; they only felt that Nearl was putting on an act and begging for forgiveness.

Seeing this, the members of the Unarmored Alliance, who were being suppressed by Shining alone, began to back down.

Someone opened the communication to ask Monique for instructions on how to proceed, but there was no response from Monique.

Outside the arena, two old friends who shared similar tastes were still chatting.

"What deafening cheers... and curses too," Roy joked. "The knights are always so dazzling, I'm so envious."

"There are also those that are not so dazzling."

Toran crossed his arms, seemingly lost in memories: "Once upon a time, the Ursus artillery destroyed the town we used to live in, and we became a group of hunters who made a living by hunting."

It was a rainy night. We were chasing a wild beast, but a 'knight' beat us to it.

Roy seemed captivated by the little story and waited with great interest for Toran to continue.

"He was a handsome young man, dressed in gold, who was pretending to wash the blood off his face with rainwater."

Toran gave a sly smile: "We asked him why a knight would be here."

Guess what he said? "

"What?" Roy seriously took on the role of the straight man.

Toran clicked his tongue: "He said, 'I am not a knight yet, just a wandering knight.'"

He also asked, 'And who are you?'

A figure in blue fell awkwardly from the sky in front of the two.

Roy was startled and lifted his foot slightly to avoid stepping on the unlucky Monique.

"Hey, how did you fly down from the sky?" Roy asked deliberately. "I remember I didn't teach you this trick when I was training you to escape these past few days."

Monique struggled to her feet, gritting her teeth as she said:

"Stop talking nonsense, either quit or come help!"

Roy didn't answer Monique, but instead looked up at the golden pegasus slowly approaching from afar:

"Look, our 'Ranger' has arrived."

Roy tried to step forward, but a hand pressed down on his shoulder.

Toran chuckled slyly, "Ha, I used to think the same thing as you, that this guy was such a show-off, so I couldn't help but tease him."

This is how I answered him at the time...

Standing before you is the strongest bounty hunter in Kazimierz!

Toran blocked Roy's path, his smile unable to conceal his fighting spirit.

Roy: “…”

Faced with this bounty hunter who was just as despicable as himself, Roy had to admit that the guy was actually quite handsome now.

"Unfortunately, it's not only upright people like you who can show off."

Roy ignored Tolan and went over to check if Monique was injured.

His eyes then lowered slightly, but returned to normal in the blink of an eye.

“Monique, your injury isn’t that serious.” Roy patted Monique on the shoulder. “Go take care of things over at the Champions Wall exhibition hall, I’ll handle things here.”

Monique was somewhat bewildered.

Roy had already walked past her, waving his hand without turning back to indicate that she didn't need to worry about him.

Toran suddenly sensed a crisis looming over him and quickly took a half step back, standing next to Marna who was approaching.

Monique watched the figure facing Marna and Tolan alone, feeling worried, but the habits Roy had instilled in her over the years made her choose to trust him.

After Monique left the scene, Roy's shoulders suddenly slumped:

"Gentlemen, there's really no need for us to fight to the death. The protagonist of this stage play is the Radiant Knight, the script is written by a certain silent hooded man, and the person whose decisions can affect whether the script has a good or bad ending is in the Champions Wall exhibition hall."

"Why would a bunch of us extras risk our lives?"

Maena: "..."

Toran: "..."

Two figures, supporting each other, walked down the street late at night.

The Blood Knight struggled with every step, and he couldn't help but laugh at himself:

"This road...it turns out to be so long."

“You’re injured, so we can’t move fast.” As Lin Guang spoke, his gaze kept scanning the surroundings.

Countless members of the Unarmored Alliance emerged from the shadows, their crossbow bolts gleaming coldly in the night, aimed at the two.

"Blood Knight, Radiant Knight, may you please turn back now?"

The Unarmored League members, though tense, unconsciously showed a hint of respect: "If possible, we don't want to take action against the two champions."

Lin Guang remained silent.

The Blood Knight suddenly tried to get off her shoulder:

"It seems our pilgrimage has come to an end. You should leave. I've kept my head down for too long; perhaps it's time for me to tell them..."

Before the Blood Knight could finish speaking, his raised arm was stubbornly grabbed again by Nearl.

The next second, an arrow pierced the air and landed between the two sides.

The members of the Unarmored Alliance were all taken aback.

In this situation, how could anyone dare to stand up for the Radiant Knight?

The rousing electronic synthesized sound echoed in the silent night.

Wildmane, wielding a knight's lance, stood before the members of the Unarmored Alliance alongside the Knight of Justice:

"You scum of the Unarmored Alliance, come and have a go at me!"

"It's the enemy! Fire the arrows!"

The members of the Unarmored Alliance had barely uttered their exclamations when they saw a beam of Originium shell, gleaming in the sky, crash down in the middle of their ranks.

Gray stood on high ground looking down:

"The arrows can't touch our champions, the Unarmored Alliance."

The members of the Unarmored Alliance felt a chill run down their spines and instinctively wanted to escape through the communicator to call for backup.

But an arrow with a trail of light feathers shot from a distance beyond their sight, precisely destroying their communicator.

Yuan Ya, with his chubby little face, was solemn as he silently reloaded his crossbow and aimed it at the members of the Unarmored Alliance.

Sona smiled and walked up to Lin Guang and the other person.

Ignoring the chaotic Wuzhou Alliance, the three stared at each other in the night.

“You guys…” Lin Guang was somewhat moved.

Sona shook her head and smiled:

"If time allowed, I would actually like to ask you both for your autographs, but for now..."

Please keep going, just from one end of the street to the other, just across the city… but that is a great undertaking.”

Nebula and Blood Knight were both speechless. They nodded to Sona and took another slow but firm step.

In the shadows, Bai Jin, still reeling from Qi Yan's golden gaze, silently observed everything that was happening on the street.

She thought for a moment, then silently drew an arrow and nocked it on the bowstring.

Before she could exert any force, a dagger silently pressed against her back.

"You'd better not move, just let them pass, Platinum level."

Serchiak carefully concealed himself entirely in the shadows, not daring to expose himself to the city.

“You…” Platinum’s expression was complicated.

Serkiak remained silent, his fingers gripping the dagger trembling slightly from the excessive force.

He admitted that he was afraid.

After sending his wife and children away, his return carried unspeakable risks, which was a dereliction of duty on his part as a husband and a father.

But as a knight, the muscles in his arm holding the dagger were taut, as hard as a rock, just like the conviction that brought him here.

Chapter 493 The Road Ahead is High

The street battles, though chaotic, did not stop; instead, they intensified.

The Red Pine Knights gained an initial advantage through a surprise attack, but as the battle continued, they were simply unable to resist the endless stream of Unarmored Alliance members.

After Wildmane forced back three more enemies, he was also exhausted and had to hide behind the Justice Knight to catch his breath.

She turned her head and looked around, and found that the fight had attracted a lot of onlookers.

They all kept their distance, watching everything with a mixture of fear and curiosity, watching the two champions stagger along and the Red Pine Knights struggling in battle.

Wildmane clicked his tongue, noticing that not only on the streets, but also in the dark corners of the alleys, there were quite a few infected people watching.

"Hey, you guys, why aren't you helping?" Wildmane shouted.

But when the infected heard the shouts, they all shrank back into the shadows as if they were underground creatures burned by the light.

Wild Mane was furious upon seeing this.
