Arknights, the Angel of Justice is waiting for level 16

Ji Luo was still very curious about this country controlled by gangs and families, but it was a pity that the convoy only passed through the border and did not go too deep.

However, before leaving Syracuse, the caravan replenished supplies in the nearest city and planned to rest for a night.

Ji Luo and Chen finally had a chance to get out of the car and get some fresh air. Originally, Ji Luo wanted to be alone with him, but Lin Guang insisted on following him, saying that he had to fulfill his responsibilities as a subordinate.

Faced with Lin Guang's determined expression, Ji Luo had nothing to refute and just let her follow behind.

Lin Guang's following did work. Several pickpockets who intended to approach Ji Luo were discovered by her in advance and fell to the ground one by one.

Being in a foreign country, Lin Guang was actually very reserved, but this group of pickpockets who liked to bully outsiders just went for it and robbed him.

Lin Guang decisively held up his shield to block Ji Luo and the other man, and then knocked them unconscious at an extremely fast speed.

Afterwards, Lin Guang wanted to call the police but was stopped by Ji Luo. He just found a crowded street and hid himself.

"I thought that the lower city of Longmen was already a place of demons. I didn't expect that Syracuse would be a place where hundreds of demons would parade at night."

Ji Luo had always thought that Ursus was the bottom line for all the countries on the Terra continent, but he did not expect that Syracuse was even lower than this bottom line.

The infected people in Ursus live a bad life, but at least ordinary people can survive. But in Syracuse, the gangs are almost lawless, and killing people in the streets is a daily occurrence.

——I can only say it is so horrible that none of the Terra countries are working hard to govern. They are all just playing around and blatantly competing with each other to be worse.

After this happened, Ji Luo did not continue to hang out in Syracuse. He bought some things and returned to the caravan.

Coincidentally, the nightingale had woken up at this time, and the girl's voice was soft and light, which was very comfortable to listen to.

Unfortunately, as Ji Luo expected, Nightingale had lost all her memories. She was like a blank sheet of paper, accepting the friendship of Ji Luo and the other three.

"That's fine, too."

Shining did not ask Ji Luo if there was any way to restore Nightingale's memory. After all, it was a kind of happiness to be able to forget the suffering Nightingale had experienced before.

Thus, Nightingale began a new life. Everything seemed wonderful to her, as beautiful as the starry sky...

The convoy stayed in the small city of Syracuse for one night and set off early the next day.

For the next route, the team has two countries to choose from: Larante and Letania.

Because he really couldn't make up his mind, Krush even came over to ask Ji Luo.

Ji Luo could see that these people were worried that the Sarkaz would enter Larant and would drive those people with fluorescent lights on their heads crazy.

The end result was that the convoy diverted to Leithania. Although the journey was longer, it was much safer.

The country of Leitania is even more ridiculous than the gangs in Syracuse. It is the world of various feudal lords.

According to Terra's technological level, the feudal systems of various countries should have been swept into the trash heap long ago, and capital should be the new king.

However, the local lords of Leithania still retained considerable power. They did not mind the passing of mercenaries and caravans, but they increased their exploitation.

Horn, the leader of the caravan, was experienced in dealing with the lord who always wanted to take advantage of the situation. He attended a grand banquet and finally settled the matter.

Who would have thought that just the next day after the caravan left, the lord who had taken responsibility for everything had already sent troops to follow the caravan.

After a meaningless battle, the convoy sped away from Leithania.

Later, when Ji Luo happened to chat with Wei Luo, he found out that the old lord that the Warren Chamber of Commerce had dealt with before had just passed away, and his newly-appointed son was so obsessed with money that he was digging his own grave.

Well, it's quite interesting anyway. The Terra world always brings 'surprises' to Ji Luo.

——This is an example of what it means that technology and superstition coexist, and wisdom and stupidity go hand in hand. It’s amazing.

When the convoy officially entered Casimir, the journey was already halfway completed. One and a half months had passed since the day Ji Luo left Longmen.

Casimir was originally ruled by "Tianma", but later, the "Khan" guards from the north threatened the rule of "Tianma".

With foreign enemies spying on them, the Knights took advantage of the opportunity to replace the Pegasus regime, but they did not stay in power for long.

Later, the country became dominated by the traditional knight system, and with the development of the times, knight competitions gradually became commercialized.

——When capital comes, everything becomes fine.

Haha~ This sounds silly and naive.

Capitalism is nothing more than a system, which is definitely more progressive than slavery and feudalism.

However, no one can deny that this political system that is infinitely oriented towards money will lead to the degradation of morality to a tragic level.

Businessmen are profit-driven and will do anything for money, and ultimately, as long as they benefit themselves, they don’t care about the losses of millions of people.

So, the country of Casimir looks prosperous and beautiful on the outside, but in fact it has been completely hollowed out by capital.

When Lin Guang arrived at her hometown, Ji Luo thought she would be happier. But Knight Yao stayed in the car or in the camp, with no intention of entering the city.

Lin Guang even put on a long robe, deliberately covering his face, and refused to communicate with people in his hometown.

Lin Guang's cover-up finally ended when the convoy left Casimir.

Everyone in the same carriage could see that Lin Guang breathed a sigh of relief after being away from his hometown.

But she also became more silent.

Soon after, the convoy officially entered Kjerag. This country, known as the Snowland, is a completely religious country.

The amazing thing is that this place is almost unaffected by natural disasters, and the terrain is steep, closed and conservative, with snow all year round.

All these factors combined make this country seem very quiet. Although the villages along the way are underdeveloped, the villagers are very kind.

It must be said that the large mountainous area of ​​Kjerag is very difficult to travel. The convoy stopped and started here, and the distance traveled every day was very touching.

To be honest, the distance traveled in Kjerag would only take one-fifth of the time or even less to travel anywhere else.

However, the Warren Chamber of Commerce still chose to go this way, and the reasons behind it are even more intriguing.

Of course, Ji Luo did not choose to ask these questions specifically, because Colombia was so close and his mind was no longer on the journey.

Having come this far, the next thing to do is to face the issue of Rhine Life, and everything else is just trivial.

With the addition of Lin Guang, Shining, and Nightingale, Ji Luo's team has more than doubled in size, but they don't know the purpose of this trip.

To be honest, Ji Luo could completely use them as his subordinates, not telling them any secrets and simply assigning them tasks.

However, Ji Luo had already decided in his heart that he wanted the three of them to become real companions, so this kind of concealment was not advisable.

So, the day before the convoy was about to enter Colombia, Ji Luo had a frank talk with Lin Guang and the other two.

The secret of the remains of the evil star, the whole story of the natural disaster sacrifice, the threat of the natural disaster beast - except for some information that cannot be told, Ji Luo told the three people most of the secrets.

Lin Guang was the first of the three to express her opinion. As the successor of the spirit of chivalry, she could not tolerate such behavior as blood sacrifice. Even if it meant sacrificing her life, she would stop this atrocity.

Although Shining and Nightingale were not as excited as Lin Guang, their attitude was also very determined - Rhine Life's plan must be stopped!

Chapter 158: Coming to Destroy Rhine's Life

Columbia, full name the Federation of Columbia, is the youngest country on the Terra continent today.

Although he is just a new chess player, he has great ambitions. In the past decade, he has been in friction with neighboring countries, small-scale wars have continued, and he has been interfering in other countries' internal affairs based on his own interests.

The war promoted the industry of this country, allowing it to surpass the accumulation of other countries in a whole century in just a dozen years.

Nowadays, all industries in Colombia are relatively developed, among which the entertainment industry is particularly prosperous, and emerging industrial products are widely used at home and abroad.

Different from the heavy and settled city atmosphere of Longmen, when Ji Luo and his party stepped into this country, they saw a wild and free style...

"Chen, how is it, what do you think of this country?"

"Somewhat... confused and disoriented."

Chen used two slightly derogatory words. She looked at the chaotic graffiti on the walls on the street and a group of young people rapping enthusiastically, and couldn't help frowning.

"In Longmen, I feel a deep-rooted decadence, like a mountain, which makes any change and revolution particularly difficult. But here, people are too free and casual, and this kind of laissez-faire can easily distort people's minds."

"That hit the nail on the head, dear."

Ji Luo seemed to have heard some insightful remarks and clapped his hands excitedly. Chen wrinkled his nose slightly and punched Ji Luo's shoulders twice. There was no pain, but she revealed the girl's coquettish mood.

"Hi, are you two here for tourism? Welcome to Tremont!"

As if attracted by Chen's appearance, a few ruffians came over, greeted the leader, and enthusiastically handed over a few candies.

"..."

Ji Luo looked down at the candy, reached out and grabbed the man's arm, kicked him in the shin bone, and then twisted it hard, causing the strong-looking Liberi to fall directly to the ground.

On the other side, seeing their companions injured, others came over with skateboards and baseball bats. Ji Luo punched them all to the ground.

"A group of garbage."

Ji Luo raised his foot to crush the candy on the ground, and glanced at the few people. They immediately shrank back and closed their mouths with a little fear.

"Ji Luo, it's time to go."

"Ah."

Ji Luo turned around to look at the policeman who was walking over, and walked into the alley next to him with Chen, and quickly climbed over the wall and left the place...

A week ago, Ji Luo and his group of five arrived in Columbia following the Warren Chamber of Commerce's convoy.

After rejecting the remuneration from the head of the Chamber of Commerce, Ji Luo said goodbye to several mercenaries he had had contact with, left their respective contact information, and officially left the team.

Afterwards, Ji Luo and others bought another car and drove for about five or six days before finally arriving at Tremon, a mobile city belonging to Colombia.

It is the science and technology center of Columbia, the headquarters of Rhine Life Science, and the home of the famous Terra's 'Tremont Institute of Technology'.

It was not until today that the three and a half month journey was officially declared over.

It was still autumn when Ji Luo and his companions left Longmen, but now in Longmen, it is already the coldest season of the year.

Compared to Yan Country, which was already covered in snow, the temperature in Colombia had just reached zero degrees at this time. The rain that fell was very cold and the air was unusually humid.

Lin Guang, Shining and Nightingale came in through normal procedures, so they can rent a house through formal channels.

As for Ji Luo and Chen, since they were teleported directly into the city, they were completely illegal residents and could not do anything that required documents.

Fortunately, their current task is to purchase the necessary items and prepare two or three safe houses without going through official procedures.

These transactions tend to be shady. If they happen in Longmen, they must be all over the lower city area. You can just find any gang.

However, Colombia is very different. There are no fixed slums in this city. Its luxury and poverty may be only one block apart. The contrast is so strong that it leaves people speechless.

This city without any bottom line is a paradise for the rich to do whatever they want, but for the poor, it is an inescapable purgatory.

After a brief wandering, Ji Luo found a broker, went through a simple process, and selected a secluded and hidden safe house.

These guys were extremely professional, and even asked Ji Luo if he needed firearms or etched bullets, offering discounts for first-time purchases.

What’s even more outrageous is that they have all kinds of Originium bombs, and no procedures or certificates are required, all you need is money.

After repeatedly rejecting the broker's harassment, Ji Luo and his companion took a taxi around the city and rented two safe houses.

By the time these things were done, it was already afternoon and Lin Guang suddenly called.

Ji Luo chatted with her for a while and finally decided on the house to rent.

"We've been on the road so much that we haven't had a good New Year. Tomorrow is the Spring Festival, let's celebrate it properly."

"Ok!"

Chen walked beside Ji Luo and naturally held his hand. After more than three months of getting along, the two of them had become a perfect match, and the closest relationship was only a thin layer away.

Ji Luo suppressed his complicated thoughts and accompanied Chen to visit several shopping malls and supermarkets. The two bought a lot of things and finally returned to the place where they had just completed the rental procedures, just like moving house.

"Ji Luo, Chen, welcome back."

"Shining, is everything going well?"

"Fortunately, nothing went wrong."

Shining helped to bring all the things into the house. Lin Guang was now holding the refrigerator, moving this large appliance to a suitable location.

Nightingale's condition had also improved a lot. She was holding a rag in her hand and wiping the glass carefully.

Ji Luo and Chen Fang also joined the cleaning. The five of them worked for the entire afternoon to basically finish cleaning the three-bedroom, two-living-room house.

After the busy work, Ji Luo ordered hot pot for dinner. Nightingale was the only one allowed to help, and the other three were kicked out of the kitchen.

"Considering the issue of food safety, those of you who can't cook should just take a good rest and wait."

"Ji Luo! I'm very good at swordsmanship, but you just don't believe me!"

Chen thought that he had reached perfection in knife skills, and being excluded by Ji Luo felt like he was being looked down upon.

"I know you're good with a knife, but this matter...it's better to be clear."
