Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

My life has been a journey from confusion to sin, a life of depravity.

Alde calmly awaited the public's anger and her punishment.

To Aleide’s bewilderment, Vina, upon receiving this answer, showed neither anger nor pity, but instead turned to look at the others.

“I think there’s something fishy going on here,” Horn said, raising his bandaged hand. He was the first to speak.

"What kind of information does Aldebaran want by going undercover? Or what does she want to obtain?" Mudrock asked with concern, holding his wallet.

“It must have been Duke Custer who forced Allardy. My suggestion is to throw Qi Yan over there and let him wreak havoc.” Chen Yanci pointed directly to the ultimate solution to the problem.

Amidst the chorus of concerned or offering suggestions, Mandela alone turned to the Deeppool 'spy' in the group and posed an out-of-place question:

"Why is it that other undercover agents can live in big villas and enjoy a comfortable life, while you're arrested and have to wait for me to rescue you?"

'spy':"……"

Chapter 619 Plot? Mechanics? Sorry, I'm Khan!

Mandela's inquiries yielded no results.

Everyone, including the 'spy,' chose to ignore this stupid cat whose intelligence was on a completely different level.

Amiya walked up to Alde and gently comforted her:

"Please don't panic or blame yourself. Since Mr. Qi Yan said so, you must have your own reasons."

Aleide was momentarily at a loss for what expression to make.

Her undercover identity was exposed, but everyone chose to forgive her.

It wasn't for any other reason than that Qi Yan revealed her undercover identity with a smile, and everyone believed Qi Yan's attitude.

Alde's feelings were more complicated than ever before.

Qi Yan put his arm around the doctor's shoulder, holding his hood firmly to prevent him from escaping, and said with a grin:

"Don't overthink it. Keep things simple. Don't overcomplicate things. We're not acting in a stage play."

I know you were unwilling to become the Duke of Caesar's spy; you simply had no other choice.

The more relaxed Qi Yan appeared, the more dejected Aleide looked at that moment.

In front of everyone, she slowly lowered her head and buried her face in her hands.

Alde did not cry, but her voice sounded as if it had been soaked with tears, wet and dripping.

"So what? I have indeed become that kind of person."

Alder's voice, muffled, traveled through her hand to everyone's ears: "Just as I cannot choose who I become, I cannot choose anything now that I am standing before you."

The moment you appeared, you exposed all my lies and my hypocrisy.

"I will not resist whatever you wish to do with me, nor am I capable of doing so. What information do you want to extract from me? Or what do you want me to do? Just tell me."

Everyone looked at Qi Yan.

Faced with everyone's gaze, Qi Yan shrugged and pushed the doctor away.

“Aldey, lift your head and look at me.”

Aleide's shoulders trembled slightly. After a moment's hesitation, she finally mustered the courage to face the situation.

She looked up and saw a pair of golden eyes, clear, clean, and untouched by the vicissitudes of life.

The owner of those eyes smiled and extended his hand to her:

"I want you to be yourself."

Alde was stunned, hearing it so clearly yet feeling a sense of unreality, as if it were a dream.

“I don’t understand,” Allardy asked. “What does it mean to become myself?”

"For example... take out that abandoned steam-powered mech in your attic, tinker with it and fix it up, then drive it out and shove your fist in the Duke of Caesar's face."

As Qi Yan spoke, he gestured loudly: "Tell her loudly, you old hag, your days of doing whatever you want are over!"

Today, on behalf of the eternally 'noble Cumberland' and the Steam Knights, I will plunge your face into the lava of hell to give it a good wash!

Let me see if your cosmetics can protect against lava!

Aleda: “…”

She felt that Qi Yan was joking with her.

To make such an inappropriate joke in an atmosphere that should have been somber.

After a moment of stunned silence, Alde was subconsciously moved by Qi Yan's words and began to imagine the scene he described.

For some inexplicable reason, Aleide couldn't control herself and let out a sneer while looking down.

Everyone around couldn't help but laugh at Qi Yan's appearance, except for the man in the gray top hat who stood there awkwardly.

Qi Yan gave Mandela a look.

Mandela understood immediately, ran up to the man in the grey top hat, tilted his head, and asked:

Why aren't you smiling? Don't you like it?

Grey top hat: "..."

He had thought that he and Aldebaran would both perish, but at least they would have each other on their journey to the afterlife.

Surprisingly, as they chatted, the group of people forgave Allardy, leaving him all alone.

The man in the grey top hat suddenly felt that life was not worth living. Ignoring the foolish film that was shaking its head in front of him, he turned to look out the window.

"Stop looking, there are no origami cranes outside the window, and the sky isn't blue either."

Qi Yan raised his hand, took off his grey-black top hat, put it on his own head, and continued to say to Alede:

"Honestly, you don't need to be troubled anymore. The Duke of Caesar is forcing you."

"First ask her how many divisions she has, is that enough for me to fight with one hand?"

Alder took a breath and slowly wiped the smile from her face.

She was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "But I don't understand, why are you helping me?"

Since you know you've investigated everything about me, you must also understand that the Duke of Cumberland is now a figurehead, and my existence is of no help to you whatsoever.

"I, Qi Xiaobai, never consider the other person's status, position, or strength when making friends, because they can't beat me anyway."

Qi Yan spread his hands, arrogant and irritating, and said, "Sorry, being able to fight really means you can do whatever you want."

Aleda: “…”

Before Qi Yan could finish speaking, he turned and beckoned to Kroos:

"It seems she still hasn't grasped this level. Let's give her a hand and add the technology of Rhine Lab's power armor to the steam mech."

"Great! Great!" Cleopatra Hilton exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

Alder opened her mouth, feeling that she should say something at this moment.

But looking at Qi Yan's genuinely arrogant face, and Kroos's excitedly swaying twin ponytails, she suddenly felt that maybe things should really be simpler.

I really don't need to be an undercover agent anymore, nor do I need to be suppressed by the Duke of Caesar with all sorts of ridiculous reasons and threats.

It's all because of Qi Yan.

"I...I really can..."

Alde hesitated for a moment, then suddenly seemed to have unloaded all the burdens on her shoulders, and felt completely relaxed.

She smiled and shook her head at Qi Yan:

"Thank you, but no need. I meant the steam-powered mech. I believe you have the ability to repair it, but I am not qualified to pilot it."

"That's your own business," Qi Yan said with a grin. "I'm only responsible for giving you a hand. How you decide the rest of your life is up to you."

"Thank you," Alde said sincerely again.

Qi Yan waved his hand and turned to look at the gray top hat, which seemed to have turned gray all over.

He put one arm around the doctor's shoulder and used the other to adjust his top hat.

"Brother, please go back and tell Duke Castells that I want Alder. If she has any leverage over Alder, she'd better hand it back obediently."

Don't try anything funny with me, and don't talk to me about plot or mechanics. I can only say sorry, I am Khan.

Grey Top Hat: ?!

He clearly couldn't understand the joke about the way the address was used, and stammered in surprise:

"You're still a Khan?!"

"That's right. On this land, from the scorching hot land in the south to the polar ice fields in the north, from the sea in the east to the desolate wasteland in the west, wherever my Nightmare Khan's Golden Army goes, all that remains is dust!"

Qi Yan raised his chin slightly and said arrogantly, "In a timeline that you haven't experienced and can't understand, I've already led a team to travel around Terra and beaten up everyone I could!"

The man in the grey top hat staggered back half a step in shock at the news, his pupils trembling as if an earthquake had struck.

He suddenly felt that perhaps the history of Terra should be revised.

If things continue at this pace, it seems that Qi Yan's shadow is behind all the celebrities!

Chapter 620 Applying for World Heritage Status: We Must Apply!

Grey Top Hat left the Duke of Cumberland's mansion.

He left alive.

Holding the top hat that Qi Yan had returned to him, he was so weak in the knees that he practically tumbled and crawled away.

He didn't confront Qi Yan about the Demon King and the Khan. He didn't dare, and he didn't believe, that someone like Qi Yan would lie to a nobody like him.

At this moment, Grey Hat's only thought was to return alive and report this news to the Duke of Caesar.

But reality gave the gray top hat a resounding slap in the face.

When he returned to the grey hat's contact point, as soon as he pushed open the door and walked in, the grey hat's companions inside the contact point went wild.

"Go quickly and invite Biura; this guy must still be harboring resentment and won't rest in peace!"

"Calm down, everyone calm down, he's alive!"

After a brief period of commotion, the group of people in grey top hats gradually quieted down after being reminded by their calmest companion.

A group of people looked at the man in the grey top hat with suspicion, who, in theory, should not have been able to return alive.

The man in the grey top hat, who had been released from Qi Yan's clutches, disregarded his anger and said urgently:

"Listen to me! I have crucial information to report. Quickly connect me to His Excellency the Duke's communications!"

The group of people in gray top hats at the liaison point looked at each other, unmoved.

"What are you all standing there for? Move along!" the man in the gray top hat said, becoming even more anxious.

Something's not right, something's strange.

"Hiss, he survived Qi Yan's clutches and came back to find His Excellency the Duke..."

"Look at his build, doesn't it look a lot like Qi Yan's?"

The liaison office was quiet for a moment.

The next second, it exploded again.

"Qi Yan!"

"Everyone calm down! We have no chance of surviving against Qi Yan. Destroy all means of communication immediately! We can't let Qi Yan find us!"

Immediately, the sounds of smashing and breaking filled the room, accompanied by chaotic shouts.

"I'm really not Qi Yan, don't smash it, I really have crucial information!"

"Ah, Qi Yan rushed towards me! Mom, I love you!"

"Byura, I actually like you too, sob sob. I was the one who met you first, and we became partners, so why did it turn out like this..."

"Tom! You... I treated you like a brother, and you treated me like this? I'll strangle you even if I don't report back today!"

At the Duke of Cumberland's mansion, after seeing off the unfortunate man in the grey top hat, the Doctor silently mourned in the direction he had left for 0.03 seconds.
