Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

"I forgot to ask, sir, what country are you from?"

Qi Yan's breath hitched for a moment, then he asked, "Which country attending the World Summit is the most prestigious?"

“…The specifics are beyond the understanding of an intern like me,” Aizel said cautiously. “However, based on the envoys I’ve encountered on the streets these past few days, it’s probably from Letania.”

“Then I am from Letania.”

Aizel suddenly felt that something was strange about the thing in front of him.

Is this white-haired Luper here to make fun of me?

Recalling Qi Yan's series of neurotic and outrageous statements, Aize's suspicions grew stronger.

As a Lateranite who roams the land with his amusement-loving people, Azel knows the characteristics of them very well, and Qi Yan looks like a purebred Amusement-loving person, even more so than the Lateran Amusement-loving people!

"Sir, I am a public official."

Ezel emphasized, "Even though I am still in my internship, my work is subject to and protected by law. If possible, I hope you will not disturb my normal work."

Also… if you are a foreign envoy, please show your identification.”

"What is that thing?" Qi Yan asked, his eyes wide.

"you have not?"

"Hilarious, let alone that kind of proof, I don't even have an employee ID from my own organization."

Aizel fell silent.

He now felt that this thing in front of him had transcended the level of a mere entertainer and was heading straight towards madness.

After a moment's hesitation, Azel tried to remain serious and warned:

“Sir, if you do not have any identification to prove your identity, I will take you away for investigation as an illegal intruder.”

Qi Yan clapped his hands and said happily:

"That's perfect. You'll drag me to the cathedral, and at the same time, you'll have a legitimate reason to slack off. It's the best of both worlds."

Aizel's handsome face twitched slightly.

He took a deep breath and slowly calmed his impulse to take things too seriously.

I'm just an ordinary working person, why should I make trouble for myself?

Just pretend you didn't hear these outrageous remarks, act like you know nothing, and send this thing to the cathedral. Then messengers from all nations will come forward to take it.

"Please come with me."

Having made up his mind, Azel stopped talking and turned to lead Qi Yan toward the cathedral.

It wasn't far from the cathedral, but for the first time, Aizel felt the journey was incredibly long.

"Aizel, I heard that foreign envoys can get their meals for free in the Holy City. Can I go and get a free three-color ice cream?"

"The procedure for 'free' is not simply to eat and take for free, but rather to reimburse you upon presentation of receipts after making a normal purchase."

"With this huge sum of several thousand dollars in my account, wouldn't I be able to have a great meal?"

"Sir's spending habits are truly... astonishing."

"Keep a low profile, you have to keep a low profile when you're out and about... I see that you Laterano people all have a gun, can I get one too?"

"This is the Guardian Gun; only the Sarkaz can possess it."

"This is outrageous! When I see the Pope, I'll make him give me a sniper rifle!"

"Heh...heh heh, sir, the cathedral is just ahead, let's hurry up."

Aizel pointed to a huge, white-domed church in front of him, and, as if he had just experienced the arduous journey of Tang Sanzang to finally see the true scriptures, he walked forward with great joy.

Qi Yan tilted his head back, gazing in awe at the magnificent, colossal building, and followed closely behind Aizer.

When Ezel ran to the cathedral and saw the wide-open doors, he immediately realized what was going on.

The Lateran leadership, with their boundless audacity, simply removed the guards who normally stood watch in front of the cathedral, thus sparing envoys from various countries from potential questioning.

After a brief moment of thought, Aizel still led Qi Yan into the cathedral, intending to find any messenger from all nations to take over Qi Yan.

But when the two stepped into the church, instead of seeing the messenger from all nations, they witnessed a dispute erupting.

A woman dressed in a classic Letanian aristocratic gown, her face full of disdain, kept patting her clean skirt and angrily rebuked the petite Zalak woman in front of her:

"Don't you have eyes? This is a custom-made dress that cost a lot of money. How dare you bump into me?"

The Zalak woman clearly hadn't expected the other party to be so violent; her two furry animal ears twitched twice.

But she wasn't scared; it was just a conditioned reflex caused by being yelled at. Once she calmed down, she immediately tidied her long, orange hair that had been messed up.

After tidying herself up, the woman explained frankly:

"Madam, you're the one who bumped into me."

"Where did this country bumpkin come from? He has no manners at all." The Letanian woman looked at herself with disdain. "Don't you even look at your own rustic attire? I would feel disgusted just to see you, and you dare to say that I bumped into you?"

The woman looked at her clothes in disbelief.

Although it couldn't compare to the other person's luxurious dress, her Sherag-style outfit was clean and tidy, something she had specifically chosen before setting off.

“Madam, I’m from Shelag, not some backwater!” the woman emphasized earnestly.

"Shelag, what place is that?" The woman's doubt seemed genuine.

Someone immediately spoke up to help explain:

"Mrs. Sharon, Sherag is a snowy country located in the buffer zone between Victoria, Colombia, and Casimir."

"There's a country in those snow-capped mountains? Ha, isn't that just the countryside?"

The woman sneered contemptuously, her voice rising several octaves: "An envoy from a mere border country dares to be defiant in front of me, the Duchess?"

The Zalak woman and the man walking behind her both frowned.

The man hesitated for a moment, about to step forward to help his wife out of this trouble, but someone else acted faster than him.

A white-haired Rupert, who seemed to appear out of nowhere, stepped between the two sides of the dispute, his back to the woman, and pointed at the young Zalak couple from Sherag.

"You two, don't go too far in Serlag." Qi Yan's voice was even louder than the woman's, and it could be heard throughout half of the cathedral. "We Leitanian nobles are not ordinary people, especially since this is a duchess. Believe me or not, I'll run back to Leitania right now, gather a group of dukes, and send an army to Serlag to line up and present gifts."

The young couple from Zalak were both shocked and furious.

What nonsense about lining up to give gifts! This is clearly an attempt to threaten Shelag by taking advantage of Letania's powerful national strength!

However, this time, the young couple was not alone, because Mrs. Sharon was also taken aback by Qi Yan's high-profile behavior.

"Well... it's not that serious. Just have those two country bumpkins apologize." Mrs. Sharon said with an awkward smile.

Although she appears arrogant, it depends on the situation. If she, a mere duchess, were to cause a major diplomatic incident, not only would she be in deep trouble, but her entire family would also be in serious trouble.

"How can that be done?"

Qi Yan forcefully flung his hand away, raising his voice even louder: "We must summon the Twin Queens to personally lead the expedition. After all, Sherag is only forced to face the Letanian army because of this, while you, Madam, have soiled a dress!"

Mrs. Sharon: "..."

The cathedral was deathly silent.

Everyone looked at Qi Yan as if he were crazy.

Aizel wanted to rush up and stop Qi Yan from causing trouble, but he was a step too late and found that Qi Yan had already made a huge mistake.

He had one foot raised in mid-air, unsure whether to put it down or bring it back, and his heart felt icy cold.

It's over, it's over.

He never dreamed that the thing he brought would cause trouble so suddenly, and so dramatically at that.

Qi Yan will definitely face imprisonment this time, and as an accomplice who brought Qi Yan here, he will likely also be held accountable.

Just as everyone in the church was shocked by Qi Yan's outrageous remarks, a figure stepped out of the crowd and stood beside Qi Yan.

"When are you planning to visit the Twin Queens?" Wei Yanwu asked seriously. "I don't mean anything by it, I just want to bump into this Duchess and then, through Kjerag's influence, have the Twin Queens personally come to deliver some gifts."

Everyone in the church looked at Wei Yanwu and felt a wave of dizziness.

Who doesn't recognize this prince from the Yan Kingdom?

But why couldn't they understand what the prince was saying?

But what stunned them even more was that the white-haired Luper, with his neck stiff and a look of disdain on his face, said to Wei Yanwu:

"Are you worthy? I, Qi Yan, am here to uphold justice. What are you doing here, you water-spraying dragon king, getting involved?"

Everyone in the church gasped in shock.

This white-haired Lupo has gone mad, daring to speak to the Yan Kingdom prince like that... Wait, what did he say his name was?

The group breathed a long sigh of relief, and then, as if a switch had been flipped, they all gasped in unison.

Amidst countless gasps, Mrs. Sharon collapsed to the ground with a thud, no longer caring whether her dress would get dirty.

Qi Yan looked over upon hearing the sound, and quickly stepped forward to help him up, saying with concern:

"Madam, are you alright? You're so angry you can barely stand. I'll make sure to go to Letania when I have time, and I promise I'll get you an explanation!"

"I I I I..."

Mrs. Sharon couldn't utter a single complete sentence.

"Don't be afraid, Madam," Qi Yan comforted her tenderly. "Although I am half-brother to Lord Ensiodis Shivaesh of Kjerag, my relationship with the Twin Queens is not bad either!"

I can assure you that Kjerag will apologize to you. All you need to do is have the Duke take the army to Kjerag with generous gifts. Don't bother with moving warships; Kjerag certainly wouldn't trust them. Just send something practical.

For example, sending tens of thousands of tons of pure Originium, tens of thousands of tons of D32 steel, tens of thousands of tons of bipolar nanochips, and then just a few tens of thousands of tons of polymerizing agent...

"Oh, Madam! Madam, why have you fainted?!"

Chapter 970 The most important thing for you two is to live a good life together.

Mrs. Sharon was eventually carried away from the scene.

Her beloved dress was covered with countless footprints, but she no longer had the capacity to pay attention to them.

Qi Yan and Wei Yanwu stood side by side in the center of the crowd, watching Mrs. Sharon's departing figure with worried expressions.

Qi Yan couldn't help but sigh, "This lady is so sentimental; she actually fainted from joy over such a small thing as making a friend."

"Yes, I haven't gotten any benefits yet," Wei Yanwu said with regret.

"To be honest, you're getting a bit cocky today." Qi Yan turned his attention to Wei Yanwu. "Did the Grand Tutor say something to you? He feels that your performance this time is too sharp, which is inconsistent with the usual silent and neutral attitude of your Yan Kingdom."

"The Grand Tutor told me everything that should and shouldn't have been said."

Wei Yanwu shrugged, his gaze sweeping over the surrounding crowd, and said without suppressing his voice, "This time, Yan Kingdom is participating in the World Summit and will fully support the goal of Lateran's united nations."

If Lateran fails to accomplish this, Yan Kingdom wouldn't mind giving him a push.

The cathedral was quiet.

No one expected that before the World Summit had even officially begun, the behemoth that was Yan had already stepped in to make its stance, and with such a tough attitude at that.

The young couple from Zalak exchanged a glance, suppressing their surprise for the moment. The husband stepped forward and bowed to Qi Yan and his wife, saying:

"Thank you both for your help."

"We're all brothers, don't be so formal," Qi Yan said with a smile, looking at the person in front of him. "The most important thing is for you two to live a good life together."

"Mr. Qi Yan...do you know us?" the husband asked tentatively.

“Of course I know her, Yucatan.” Qi Yan pointed to her husband, then to her wife, “Shuru.”

Yucatan grinned and chuckled dryly:

"Mr. Qi Yan is indeed as amazing as the rumors say."

The Zalak woman named Hulus, surprised, couldn't help but whisper a protest:

“Enciodes is not yet a lord of Sherag, at least not entirely…”

“Madam!” Yucatan hurriedly interrupted his wife.

Hugh Ruth quickly shut up.

"It's alright, we don't need to worry about so much when we're just chatting," Qi Yan said with a grin. "Actually, I also think SilverAsh isn't very good. As long as you two little squirrels give us more candy, I, Qi Yan, will immediately and officially support you little squirrels to unify Sherag!"

Hugh Ruth's eyes widened, and her two pointed squirrel ears perked up involuntarily.
