Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

Theresa was reminded of her memories by Theresis's words; the images were so vivid, and her own voice seemed to still echo in her ears.

But Theresa's expression remained calm: "That sounds incredible."

Therese didn't stop talking; he looked at that bubble-like, illusory future and recounted it bit by bit:

"I saw the Blood Demon, the Carrion Eater, and the Wendigo journey together to the far north of Ursus, hurling fragments of the spirits back into the cold sky."

I also saw the banshees and shapeshifters heading south beyond Iberia, blocking the sea's objections in the boundless waters.

Countless Sarkaz sacrificed themselves for this land… and Athrun, Draco, Felin, Caprini, Liberi… they all stood with the Sarkaz.”

Theresa looked tenderly at Theresis, calmly at the brother who had killed her, and silently at the future the Regent had painted for her.

“In this dream, the Sarkaz are no longer rejected wanderers; the earth embraces us, and we have roots again.”

Theresis finally withdrew his gaze, and his eyes fell on Theresa:

“This is not my dream. These scenes are from the future that you once described to me, the future that the Sarkaz might have.”

"I remember."

Theresa said calmly, "But back then you told me that my ideals were too far away, that I would die on this path, not only because of the enemy, but also because of the Sarkaz."

"The Sarkaz's millennia-old grudge will manifest as swords and spears, all to be hurled at me."

Therese was silent for a moment.

What he once said to Theresa has now become a reality and is ever-present before her.

........................

3-0 (laughs)

Actually, I wasn't surprised by the result, but I still felt a bit upset. It wasn't anything else, but TS was beaten so badly, which I didn't expect.

Sigh, let me catch my breath, there's another chapter coming up later.

Chapter 622 Theresis's Ambition

Therese lowered her eyes slightly.

He regretted his past words, was angry at the pardoner's actions in awakening Theresa, and was heartbroken by Theresa's fate.

But he will not waver, not even in the slightest.

“You told me that this world once belonged only to the Sarkaz.”

Theresis continued, “They were the ones who took their homeland from the Sarkaz. The dead still murmur about the Sarkaz’s betrayal. The royal court is withering away like autumn leaves. Bloodlines are lost in the wailing. The sinners laughably forget history. The ruins of Kazdel are scattered all over Terra.”

Then they started shouting, 'The Sarkaz have invaded our home!'

This time, it was Theresa's turn to fall silent.

Therese was not surprised by this. He slowly got up, enduring the pain from his injuries, and walked step by step to the window.

Looking out the window at the bustling Londinium, even after the battle between Qi Yan and the Blood Demon Lord, and even after the natural disasters brought by the shapeshifters, Londinium remained magnificent.

"Victoria, a country that uses false glory to mask its inner greed, is also a highly creative country, and more than just Victoria..."

Therese didn't mince words, stating frankly: "Yan is arrogant and extravagant, but upholds righteousness; Ursus is barbaric and crude, but brave and skilled in battle; Letania is pedantic and rigid, but there are always those who are willing to be the ones who bear the infamy and dare to break the window of progress..."

The nations of this land, each time they appear before the Sarkaz, possess a completely new appearance.

Theresa understood what Theresis was saying.

She gently closed her eyes:

"Perhaps it is because of our special bloodline that many of us have lived too long a life."

In the lulls between battles, when we look up, we suddenly realize that everyone, except the Sarkaz, is advancing.

"No, it has nothing to do with the length of an individual's life, nor with the fighting strength of a particular race."

Therese stated firmly, "They have the opportunity to move forward only because they have the freedom to choose between peace and war."

The Sarkaz, however, are forever at war, war after war, both internal and external.

"The Sarkaz must change! This land must change!"

Even if the hope remains slim?

“No…” Theresis took a deep breath, ignoring the pain in his chest, and even showed a hint of triumph, “Hope is not far off, I can already see a glimpse of the future!”

Theresa's expression finally showed a slight change.

She opened her eyes and stared intently at Therese's back.

Under her gaze, Therese slowly turned his head to meet her eyes:

"If the existence of the Demon King is a shackle that hinders Sarkaz, then I will shatter it. But if the existence of the Demon King becomes another hope, then I am willing to be trampled under his feet and watch him reach his throne."

“I don’t understand.” Theresa shook her head. “Why did you suddenly change your attitude towards her?”

“My stance has never changed; the Sarkaz will not accept a demon lord from another race.”

"Then why did you..."

Who defines the Sarkaz?

The brother and sister stared at each other in silence.

Finally, Theresa slowly shifted her gaze and lowered her eyes.

Therese raised his hand and placed his palm against the cold glass of the window, feeling the chill from the outside world, and continued to look at Theresa:

"What binds the Sarkaz is not the Demon King. I will break all the shackles, I will rewrite everything, and I will make the Sarkaz stand before all races once more."

Sarkaz doesn't need a Demon King, Sarkaz doesn't need me, Sarkaz doesn't need the souls, Sarkaz only has one desire... the future.

Kazdel, I'm going there. I'm going to Kazdel to see someone.

Theresa seemed to understand something.

She slowly shook her head: "Qi Yan is not a demon king."

Tracy: "..."

His silence was so short that Theresa wasn't even sure if it could be considered a silence or just a pause in conversation.

"The Demon King is not important."

"I understand."

The conversation between the brother and sister came to an end.

But Theresa did not leave.

Therese withdrew her hand, slowly walked back to her seat, and nodded:

"What news have you come here to tell me?"

"It's about shapeshifters."

Theresa calmly delivered a series of messages that made Theresa's eyelids twitch: "They're acting strangely. Wherever they go, they cause all sorts of accidents, even injuring themselves."

On the airship, one of their individuals was passing by the control room when he inexplicably caused an explosion, injuring Sarkaz's rare technical personnel.

I urged him to rest, but in the rest area, another explosion occurred for an unknown reason. The airship's hull was damaged, and several Sarkaz warriors fell from the airship.

Afterwards, they gathered a group of individuals and attempted to use the 'Spine of Life' to teleport... but distance seemed unable to escape that strange luck; the group of individuals were swept into an unknown space by the 'Spine of Life's' murmurs and disappeared without a trace.

This time, Therese was truly silent.

He opened his mouth several times, but seemed unsure of what to say.

If the Blood Demon Lord was driven to despair by Qi Yan, he has now become nothing more than a decoration for the Sarkaz, possessing only intimidation power but no combat ability.

That shapeshifter definitely courted death and ruined himself, even dragging down the Sarkaz around them, resulting in a negative contribution value.

"Where...are they now?" Theresis asked with a sense of helplessness after a long hesitation.

Theresa replied, "We are trying to disperse, attempting to integrate into civilian communities and self-defense forces. Some individuals are also trying to contact the Duke's army, but..."

Tasks that were once simple are now yielding little result.

"Could it be that even their abilities were affected by luck?" Theresis frowned.

"Not really."

Theresa shook her head and said regretfully, "It's because of Qi Yan. All forces are keeping a close watch on the safety of their personnel, and all sorts of strange and unusual self-inspection methods are emerging one after another. Even the shapeshifters are under a lot of pressure."

Therese: "...I'll set off to see Qi Yan right now."

"Qi Yan is not in his Kazdel."

“Then I’ll wait for him to return in his Kazdel.”

"Wait……"

"You don't need to stop me."

Therese interrupted Theresa, maintaining her decisive attitude, and immediately put her decision into action.

This time, however, Theresa was even more determined, quickly stopping her somewhat hot-headed older brother.

She took out her pink wallet and put it into Therese's hand:

"According to Qi Yan's rules, you have to pay to go to Kazdel, or you'll get beaten up."

Tracy: "..."

Ignoring her brother's silence, Theresa stepped back half a step and began to explain the next steps:

“I will stay in Lentinium. The efficiency of the factories in the Highbury district must be increased, and the separation plan for the Norbert district must also be put on the agenda.”

If the Doctor is still the person I remember, Rhodes Island and the Self-Defense Forces will next operate in the Highbury District, and... raid the city defense command headquarters.

Therese's expression turned serious, and he nodded, saying:

"It seems that it was only a matter of time before they discovered the 'Spine of Life'. Instead of blocking it, we should guide it. Once the 'Spine of Life' has completed its mission, we can proactively guide Rhodes Island to contact it."

........................

I forgot to mention in the last chapter that although it's a pity that Weibo lost, I still want to congratulate Faker on becoming a four-time world champion.

He truly is a legend.

Chapter 623 Threesome

"Qi Yan, we're getting ready to leave."

"Could you give us a ride?"

"Sure, shall we go now?"

"Can't you look at me when you talk to me?"

Eldo looked puzzled: "Why were you staring at Red the whole time? Is there something on his face?"

Red felt a cold sweat break out under Qi Yan's gaze. He tightened his face mask and took the initiative to speak:

"I have Originium crystal clusters on my face."

Eldo: "..."

Are you sure you want to tell this kind of hellish joke to lighten the mood?

Seeing that Eldo was staring at him silently, Red coughed and mustered up his courage to look at Qi Yan.

Eldo: "..."

Having successfully become a background character, Eldo pursed his lips, took two steps back, crossed his arms, and began to watch the show.

There was a moment of silence among the three, before Red finally spoke first:

"Qi Yan, I admit that I am wary of you, but at the same time I also owe you a favor."

"How to say?"

Qi Yan stared at a strand of hair peeking out from under Red's hat brim, his fingers itching to move.

Realizing that the guy in front of him was still holding a grudge, Reid took a half step back in fright:

"I only cut off a lock of your hair during the fight, and you retaliated by pulling out a handful of my hair. Later, you even sent Marna all the way to beat me up. Surely you're not still holding a grudge?"
