Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

Dario glanced down at the repair materials in his hand, and a look of despair belatedly appeared on his face.

“Dario, I think you’ve made the wrong decision,” Qi Yan repeated coldly from the side.

"What?" Dario was even more confused.

"You're courting death with someone who can't die," Qi Yan said with a sinister smile.

Dario: "..."

He was just an ordinary member of Iberia's high-level combat force. Why was he involved in this battle of the gods?

Just as Dario was caught in the middle and couldn't get out of the way, his adorable little apprentice waded through the water and came to the rescue.

"Qi Yan, Qi Yan, something's happened in the cell!" Elena exclaimed anxiously. "Amaya's about to give up!"

"What's going on?" Qi Yan asked, puzzled.

Elena scratched her head; as the one giving the report, she still couldn't escape Liberi's curse:

"I don't know either. Anyway, before Laurentina left, she had a few words with Amaya alone, and then she asked me to lock Amaya up."

That woman is the Deep Sea Bishop, she's very dangerous, so I locked her up with Alfonso..."

Qi Yan and the shapeshifter exclaimed in unison.

Elena was startled and stared at the two of them with wide eyes, puzzled.

Dario was clearly also taken aback. He looked around twice before finally fixing his gaze on the gun cavalryman beside him.

"Why are you looking at me? I don't share any feelings with Qi Yan."

The cavalryman spread his hands and pleaded with Qi Yan, "Tell me quickly, is there some grudge between these two?"

Qi Yan could hardly contain himself as he said, "A man who has been adrift at sea for over sixty years is suddenly imprisoned with a woman of exceptional beauty and charm..."

The men present gasped in unison.

The group of people immediately stopped repairing the boat and rushed to the detention cell.

Elena was dumbfounded. She looked at the hole that was still flooding the cabin, and then at the hurried backs of a group of people.

"Aren't they going to abandon the boat?" she screamed.

"Elena, your homework for today is to repair the ship!"

Dario turned around and shouted, "Remember, don't follow us! That's not for kids!"

Elena: "..."

After a reaction time long enough to travel around Terra, Elena finally realized what these grown men were excited about.

Her face flushed red with embarrassment and anger, and she stomped her feet in the water, screaming:

"What are you thinking? I mean Alfonso and Amaya are fighting!"

The group of people stopped in their tracks.

"Ugh, that's it?"

"A waste of emotion."

"Repair the ship! Repair the ship! This ship is an Iberian artifact; it must not be sunk!"

Chapter 1064 The Cat Food That Was Played With

Qi Yan ultimately failed to experience the joy of repairing the ship himself.

He was grabbed by the collar by the furious Eleanor and forcibly led to the door of the cell. Before he even got close, he could hear the commotion coming from inside.

"Garcia, well done! Tear this traitor to humanity apart!"

"How dare you! I'm the one Qi Yan specifically asked to stay!"

"You bastard, how dare you kick my Garcia with your filthy feet! I'll wash Garcia's face with your blood!"

Hearing the commotion inside the cell, Qi Yan raised an eyebrow in surprise:

"Amaya is quite resilient; not only did she not die, she can even put up a fight?"

“All three of them were tied up, but they still wouldn’t stop making a scene,” Elena said, exasperated. “I tried to stop them, but even though Captain Alfonso was tied up, he could easily kick me out.”

Qi Yan: "..."

He gently patted Alini's head to comfort her, and casually plucked a feather from her head.

"Open the door, I'll help you get revenge."

Before Elena could have her outburst, Qi Yan casually diverted the attention of the dim-witted Yu.

Elena, though furious, instinctively obeyed the order and opened the tightly closed door.

The moment the door opened, Amaya, bound into the shape of a caterpillar, scurried out, her expression angry and flustered, completely unlike her usual elegance.

Behind her, even though he was tied up, Garcia was still biting Amaya's heel with his teeth.

Finally, Alfonso had almost freed himself from the ropes binding him, and one leg was now free.

The three of them paused simultaneously when they saw Elena bring Qi Yan over.

Immediately afterward, Amaya, as if seeing a savior, shouted loudly to Qi Yan:

"Qi Yan, didn't you say that my life was to be spared to contribute to the new students? These people are ignoring your order and trying to kill me!"

Garcia released his grip, looked at Qi Yan warily, and twisted his body to block Alfonso.

"Heh, you've probably misunderstood."

Qi Yan chuckled and squatted down in front of Amaya: "You're just a bag of cat food. Whether you live or die doesn't matter. Hai Si isn't picky about food anyway."

Amaya stared wide-eyed in disbelief and argued:

“I understand Hyster, I know Hyster’s future and significance. As long as I am integrated into the Hound, I will become a part of the Hound’s will and will forever guide the Hound!”

Seeing that Qi Yan showed little interest in this statement, Amaya immediately changed her tune:

“Qi Yan, I have thought carefully about what you said to Tu Yuzhe. You are right. Hai Si do not need to compete with humans for nutrients, but they do need information.”

"I am both human and Haisi. I can be Haisi's teacher, and you are my principal. As long as I can contribute to Haisi, I can accept any offer!"

"Bah! Traitor to humanity!"

Alfonso was furious and spat at Amaya.

Qi Yan ignored Amaya, who was already driven to the brink of madness by the torment, and waved to Alini, signaling her to handle the situation.

Alene scratched her head blankly, then pulled out her hand cannon and aimed it at Amaya.

"Are you stupid?"

Qi Yan was so angry that he poked Ai Lini's smooth forehead with a finger.

Elena winced in pain, clutching her head in confusion, and asked, "Didn't you tell me to get rid of her?"

"I even asked you to deal with her father!" Qi Yan said irritably.

"Huh? Who is her father? Where is he? Is he also a member of the Deep Sea Church?"

The scene was quiet.

Even Garcia couldn't help but scrutinize Elene with a strange look.

Qi Yan closed his eyes tightly, pinched his philtrum and took a deep breath.

He simply couldn't imagine how infuriating Dario must be as Eleanor's teacher in his daily life.

"Forget it, it's none of your business. Go play somewhere else," Qi Yan said weakly, waving his hand.

Elena gave an awkward laugh, took two steps back, and then tacitly acknowledged that she had completed Qi Yan's task, and began to watch the show with wide eyes.

Qi Yan said, "...Alfonso, let's get down to business."

“I have nothing to talk to you about.” Alfonso composed himself and said firmly, “The victor is king, the loser is villain. I’ve held onto this ship for over sixty years, but in the end it fell into your hands.”

I don't know the truth behind your collusion with Hai Si, and I have no intention of caring. Even if you execute me right now, I won't bat an eye.

"Look at what you're saying, I, Qi Xiaobai, am not some living Yama."

Qi Yan used his foot to scramble Amaya halfway around on the ground, then plopped down on her, chuckling, "I'm not going to do anything to you. On the contrary, I'll take you back to Iberia. Your old friend is waiting to see you."

Alfonso was taken aback: "An old friend? Who?"

"...Ha, that guy's still alive." Alfonso scoffed. "Is he now the Pope of the State Church?"

“The Church of England is a thing of the past. The Church of England has been reformed into a court of judgment, and Carmen is a saint,” Qi Yan explained patiently.

Upon hearing this news, Alfonso reacted as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world, making no attempt to hide his contempt and disdain.

“Saints… ha, saints!” he scoffed. “The Church of England didn’t dare face those fallen royals back then. I can guess that those so-called royals wouldn’t be alive now. Iberia has long since lost its royals.”

Even so, though Carmen was no longer bound by those corrupt shackles, he still dared not become pope, instead using the empty title of saint to mask his cowardice.

Elena shouted angrily, "I will not allow you to insult His Holiness the Saint like this!"

Alfonso gave a cold laugh, remaining noncommittal.

Qi Yan raised his hand to signal Elena to calm down, then asked Alfonso:

"What country did you name this place after?"

"Leytania".

"Do you know what the biggest problem is for Letania if it wants to kill Iberia right now?"

"...What is it?"

“There is a Lateran between the two countries,” Qi Yan said with a faint smile. “Iberia is no longer the remnant of the golden age you remember. Carmen, through her perseverance, helped Iberia get through the darkest period and prevented it from being devoured by other countries like Gaul.”

While this cowardly saint Carmen, whom you call timid, was defending her homeland, what was our brave Captain Alfonso doing?

Alfonso: "..."

"After scrubbing the floor clean on his own ship, he proudly announced... Look, I have conquered Letania!"

"enough……"

"When Carmen bore countless insults, used harsh measures in chaotic times, and took drastic measures to eliminate domestic threats with a thunderous hand, our great Captain Alfonso pointed to the corpse of a tarantula, full of vigor... Look, nothing can tarnish the golden age of Iberia!"

"What do you know..."

"Do you want to guess who it was that, when you had lost all hope of returning to shore and thought you had been abandoned in the vast ocean, personally issued the decree, ordering batch after batch of judges to risk their lives to try to restart the Eye of Iberia?"

Alfonso's pupils suddenly contracted.

He stood frozen in place, as if petrified, and after a long while, he managed to ask with difficulty:

"You mean... he hasn't given up on the Fool yet?"

"I don't know," Qi Yan said, crossing his arms.

"Are you kidding me?" Alfonso roared in anger.

“But I know one thing,” Qi Yan said slowly, “When the Great Tranquility enveloped the Iberian territory, it caused large areas of land to sink into the sea, and the landscape has long since changed.”

But when we discussed retaking the Eye of Iberia, it was Carmen who skillfully and clearly drew the route on the map.

Chapter 1065 Alfonso: But I refuse!

The seemingly casual words felt like a thousand pounds to Alfonso.

Garcia noticed Alfonso's mood and cautiously nuzzled up to him, rubbing his head against his calves.

“M3, untie them. Keeping them tied up like this isn’t a solution.”

As Qi Yan gave the order, M3 emerged from Qi Yan's pocket, cleanly and efficiently cutting the rope, then transformed back into a crystal and retracted into the pocket.

Qi Yan patted his pocket with satisfaction, suddenly feeling a little reluctant to return the M3.

He's obedient, unlike the shapeshifters who always like to cause trouble, and he's also very cool. When he rides the M3 to beat people up, his punches seem to have more power.

More importantly, it's edible!

Qi Yan couldn't help but lick his lips, revealing an evil smile.

The M3, huddled in his pocket, suddenly felt a chill and instinctively snuggled closer to Qi Yan, trying to find more security in him.
