The Star Knight

Chapter 148

Opal greeted an unfamiliar adventurer with a strange expression on his hat.

"You don't have to see everyone doing this." Raymond laughed and laughed.

Opal said happily: "This is just a pretend ceremony, not to say hello."

Raymond covered the black line and turned on the VIP inquiry machine.

"Special files, please perform fingerprint, genetic and pupil three-layer verification."

Raymond pressed his finger, verified by genetics and fingerprints, and put his eyes up to scan again.

"Sync completed, please operate." Electronic soundtrack.

Caroline Shakes.

Level: [Hidden.

Ongoing mission: [Investigation of ancient ruins in the Destiny Abyss.

Authorized Publisher: Carters.

Opal: "..."

Raymond looked over and over an adventurer badge in his hand. Its surface had been smoothed out, and no patterns could be seen. Like a product many years ago, Raymond finally pressed it on the safety lock and opened a map. .

Above is a map of the local abyss of Kings Wharf, like a huge vortex.

[Abyss of Destiny, a defensive base for the cooperative defense of King’s Wharf in the Dark Ages, a total of seventeen floors. Legend has it that only a handful of people have entered the bottom layer. The tenth floor is extremely dangerous. There are samples of animals and plants once distributed on multiple planets. The first floor is a relic of the ultimate battlefield. The fifteenth floor contains legendary blue fluorite, and the unknown is below the sixteenth floor. After the glorious battle, it was completely blocked by the Bureau of the Astronautics Association.

"I look at the badge." Opal took the badge. The surface had been smoothed out, and the color was not seen. It was like a plum blossom, and it was vaguely colorful.

Raymond said: "This badge may be an old version, what level of adventurer do you think he will be?"

Raymond copied the unfinished commission left by Caroline into his adventurer’s manual and left with Opal. Opal thought for a while and said, "He has also been a mercenary before. I haven’t run around in many places, but I’m just a B-level or C-level I forgot..."

Raymond said: "With his ability, he can at least be an S, if he is serious about mixing stars."

"Well." Opal thought thoughtfully: "But I don't think he likes martial stars very much, or he can't get in, and the teacher said it too. He may have stayed longer in the Big Aerospace Association... …"

Opal feels that Caroline's temperament is more like an adventurer, insidious and old-fashioned, spying in the dark and waiting for the opportunity to shoot... It is really a headache to fight this guy. Fortunately, it has not yet.

"I promised him three things." Raymond said: "After all three things are done, I will be free."

"Is this still the case?" Opal frowned.

Raymond said: "He promised not to embarrass me with troublesome things, now is the second one, go to the bottom of the abyss to find something."

Opal always felt a little dangerous, and asked: "Why didn't he go deeper?"

Raymond said: "Who knows? It may be difficult, or it may be a special event that made him give up his plan to stay in the Big Astronautics Association... Compared to this, I'm more curious about what is hidden at the bottom, will it? It would be the tomb of Horius, or..."

Opal said: "Go and ask Douglas."

Almost two hours have passed since the event that Mori agreed with them. It can be seen that the president of the Big Aerospace Association is not a punctual guy.

King Conference Hall on the second floor.

An angry quarrel came from inside. Opal pushed open the door and saw Douglas dozing in front of the presidency, his eyes narrowed. The quarrel between a young soldier and a female officer stopped when they opened the door.

The atmosphere was incomprehensible.

Opal said: "Chairman, is it convenient to speak now?"

Douglas looked at him ignorantly. After looking at each other for a while, Douglas said: "Who are you?"

"Adventure Opal, Raymond." Raymond introduced himself: "You let Sen tell us to come up at two thirty."

Douglas nodded slowly, Opal really lost to him, not long ago he met on the planet Jinyao, he turned around and forgot... No, he didn't forget.

Opal saw the sly look in Douglas' eyes and vaguely noticed something.

"Please sit down," Douglas said.

Raymond and Opal took their seats, and Douglas said to the two soldiers again: "You can continue."

Opal knew that this must be Brigadier General Feig and the Chief of Intelligence Department of Falcon Star. Unexpectedly, Douglas was even more ruthless, and he directly met with both of them.

The female officer said coldly: "According to the search warrant issued by Jin Yaoxing. The two of you need to go back with me for review. Chairman Douglas, are you really prepared to provide refuge for imperial prisoners?"

Douglas said: "What did they do? I forgot again, the memory is always not very good."

Opal almost fell to the table with a smile, Raymond smiled and said: "What hatred can't be solved? Beauty, how about a cup of coffee?"

"You didn't commit a crime." Wen Li smiled at him: "After the event, you can drink a cup of coffee. I mean that kid, and his other partner, did he not come today?"

Opal couldn't laugh anymore.

"If you are interested in him." Opal said: "I can introduce his twin brother to have a cup of coffee with you, I'm afraid you can't play him."

Wen Li changed her face and turned to stare at Douglas, saying: "Chairman, today the association will not solve this matter before closing, and you are responsible for all consequences."

Douglas said: "What are the consequences, please say it again? I have always had a bad memory."

Wen Li finally knew that Douglas was playing with her. She whispered and threatened: "Then let's just wait and see."

She left the meeting room and closed the door, leaving Opal, Raymond and Douglas, and Feig in the room.

Brigadier General Feig was silent for a long time, and then said: "Justin is dealing with the aftermath on the star, and has no time to come back. He told me to protect you. It is safest to follow me."

"No need." Opal lazily said: "Thanks to his kindness, hasn't he been caught by the shepherd?"

Raymond said: "He doesn't look too scared of his wife."

Opal said: "Oh, I think it's just superficial."

Feige said: "A group of lunatics, I forgive you again, Chairman Douglas, your decision will bring the entire Big Astronautics Association into the abyss, and the Empire will not sit back and watch you cooperate with Colleen. You better consider my proposal again. "

Douglas asked again: "What is the proposal? I am old."

Feige had no way to take this guy. When he was about to get up, Douglas said again: "His Highness Baroque wants to come and visit us. Of course we welcome. As for other things, I will postpone the matter for a while. The two children cannot follow you. of."

Brigadier General Feig's expression was loosened, but he still looked paralyzed and said: "You can't protect them, Chairman. Wen Li's intelligence department plainclothes lurks around King's Wharf. You will be in trouble."

Douglas took out two sugars and distributed them to Opal and Raymond. He said: "Then give it a try, General Feig."

Brigadier General Feig no longer talked much with him and left the meeting room.

Douglas sat thoughtfully, without a little expression for a long time. Opal chewed sugar in his mouth and glanced at the old man. Raymond first spoke and asked, "Chairman, we just have a question for you."

Douglas nodded and Raymond opened the adventurer's manual and said: "We received a commission to investigate the abyss of fate. Do you know what's inside?"

Douglas reached out and slapped a bell, and the sound of Ding Ding Ding screamed out, scaring Opal, almost choked by sugar. Raymond didn't know what he wanted to do, and he looked dazed.

"There are the remains of King Shax." Douglas said: "At the bottom are Horius and the Dark Ages, the graves of the heroes who died for King's Wharf."

Opal's heartbeat brake stopped.

Douglas said, "I'm calling you to ask the results of Lava Star's investigation. It seems that there is already an answer."

Opal didn't quite understand and said, "Why?"

Douglas took a long breath and took a pipe from his jacket pocket, blowing a burst of smoke.

"Is the Legion of Repliers imminent?" Douglas said.

Raymond and Opal were shocked at the same time, Douglas knocked the pipe at the table, knocked out some ash, and said, "Where did Mr. Rector go?"

Raymond didn't know anything about Douglas, but Opal showed him a little peace with his eyes and said to Douglas: "We destroyed the first base, and the teacher is looking for clues to the second base."

Douglas said: "It really is coming..."

Opal said: "No, the Replica Legion is about to attack?"

Douglas shook his head, finally waking up from a state of semi-contemplation and half-talk, and said, "No, I have to deal with Alex first."

At the same time, Vice Chairman Sen pushed the door into the conference room, took off his hat, and said, "In the glory of Horius."

Douglas took off his hat and returned the salute, saying the same: "In the glory of Horius, Sen, opened the association recall order, gathered all the alien system commissions, and let the adventurers return to King's Wharf after dealing with the matter at hand."

Another adventurer came in, one after another, more and more, everyone seated in pairs, Opal and Raymond got up and moved to the outer seats, Douglas asked again: "Kapp, our reserves are enough to support the war for how long ?"

"I don't think war is a good solution." The named adventurer said: "With the current reserves and planetary defense, we may be able to cope with the two-year attack of the empire. The premise is that the other party does not activate the Saint Fortress. And keep the number of legions within two. Even if there are big and small trump cards."

Mori Chao opal and Raymond said: "The two can leave."

Opal wanted to listen to a few more words, but Douglas said: "Go and continue to commission, what's the matter, I will see you again."

Raymond had to bring the door out, and Opal said: "Have you heard? You are going to fight, probably with the Empire."

Raymond said: "Not necessarily, but the worst result... how does this old man feel know everything?"

Opal went to look at the commissioned information machine. All the extragalactic missions above disappeared, and all were replaced with local commissions.

"What now?" Opal asked.

"Let's take a vacation first." Raymond closed the adventurer's manual and said, "I've been to King's Wharf for so long.

Opal also thought that when there is time, there is no money, when there is money, there is no time, and there is no vacation after returning from the Star of the Falcon.I can finally relax.

Autumn is the most beautiful season at King’s Wharf. Hexagonal maple leaves are all over the streets and alleys. There are many things to be done in the future. Rector doesn’t know what happened. Where is Collorne? What turmoil will happen to the Replica Legion? Still drifting in an unknown world, what action will the empire take on the Big Astronautics Association...

Opal and Raymond left the guild and walked on the road covered with maple leaves. The two maple trees were like a long corridor, and the end was a blue sky washed by water.

"I started to understand the teacher's beliefs." Opal said: "Teacher's beliefs, Caroline's beliefs, Nolan's ideals."

Raymond said: "I started to understand a little bit of Ledgerson's belief."

Opal's mouth twitched slightly and said, "I don't understand at all."

"Look." Raymond said: "This is such a beautiful thing, so he is willing to sing aloud, no matter whether there is an audience or no matter how he sings, it is a kind of...er, a kind of release. a kind of..."

Opal said: "A catharsis from the heart."

Raymond said: "Maybe, drink something?"

The autumn was sunny on the square, and the wind was very comfortable. Opal went to sit on the lawn. Raymond went to buy food and the two lay side by side on the grass.

A maple leaf fell, falling between Opal's eyebrows, he gradually fell asleep.

With one hand stretched out, he took the maple leaf away and poked his forehead. Opal said, "Sleep again."

"You are not a qualified adventurer. You are too lazy, Opal." Raymond's voice said: "In the grip of the spinning light, I think I should teach you more diligently."

He sat up sharply, and Caroline said: "Walk for a walk?"

Opal noticed that he did not become smaller, wearing suit trousers and shirt vest, and wearing a plaid cap.He smiled and took off his hat to Caroline, saying, "Hello, teacher, how is this dress?"

Colleen wore a long trench coat and carried a black gold axe gun and said, "I'm lazy again? You haven't gone into the abyss of fate."

Opal said: "Go for a few days off, what about you? Where is this?"

Opal finally found out that he was no longer outside the Maple Leaf Trail outside the Big Astronautics Association. This was a strange place. There was a manor in the distance, and there was laughter from children.

Korolin said: "This is a dream. I am practicing a new kind of power of faith that can play a role in daydreams and affect the actions of corresponding goals."

"Who is the corresponding target." Opal frowned.

Caroline walked across the grass, put on his fingerless gloves, and said, "The enemy."

Opal followed behind him and walked to the manor with Caroline. Caroline said: "To defeat our enemies, we must first explore his past and find his weaknesses."

Actress:

The mother of the female Luo has been on the verge of withering, but the vegetation of the whole female Luo Xing is flourishing.

"Ledgerson concert tickets! Ledgerson concert tickets!" Someone shouted, "Take you in! Only 1,600 credit points, boxes!"

Rector waved his hand, put on his sunglasses, jumped off the maglev car, and saw the beam of light shimmering under the huge shade of the mother of the female Luo, which had enclosed the open field.The performance stage was under the tree trunk. A teenager came over and asked, "Sir, do you need a local guide?"

Rector said: "I came to find someone, thank you."

The female star is not like the water blue. The latter has developed into a universe-wide tourist resort, and commercial travel services are arranged in place. The female star has few entertainment facilities except for a few large aprons and limited forest residential hotels.

All landscapes require tourists to find their own experience, from the deep trench across the planet to the sea of ​​trees, night, day, holy land, grassland, and tourists everywhere.After the female Luoxing joined the Dark League, tourism resources were developed in just a few years. The locals have almost no longer relied on the plantation industry to make a living. Many factories have been removed, leaving only leisure farms and residential inns for tourists.

The female Luoxing people are earning a lot of money and no longer worry about their livelihood. However, many people also run away angrily. Fortunately, Caroline has no more requirements than to ask the female Luoxing to be open to the entire universe.All construction and planning were delivered to the local government of Nvluoxing, which achieved a high degree of autonomy.

As for the diplomatic relations of the female star, Caroline does not interfere in any way, and in addition to the politicians of the Empire and the Republic, the invited guests of Ledgerson's "return" concert, as well as Jin Yaoxing's highly-regarded focus figure, Prince Alex Kes.

Opening a concert at such a time is undoubtedly a buffer zone reserved for the entire interstellar situation after the Pope's enthronement and the battle of the martial stars.

Rector easily entered the tree sea area, walked on the steps of the towering giant roots, and heard the music in the lounge.

Ledgerson was sitting in the middle of the open-air platform, and there was no one around. Skylight spilled from the gap between the leaves of Mother Nuo and fell on his supple blond hair, and he played the pipe organ in a dream.

"Here is the province of monks and soldiers." Korolin said: "The Orphanage in the major major city of E in major sky"

Opal looked up and saw the light sign in front of the orphanage. He asked, "What are you doing here?"

"Look at the little boy." Caroline raised an eyebrow and said, "Opal, can you recognize who he is?"

Opal looked into the railing and saw a group of children standing together with a smile.

"The third on the left?" Opal said.

"It's the one in the middle," Collolin said numbly.

Opal: "..."

The little robot took pictures of them, and the children dispersed. The blonde child in the middle stood alone. The dean clapped his hands and said, "Okay, now we'll send Ledgerson away."

The little children seemed reluctant and came over to shake hands with the blond kid.

Opal understood that this was Ledgerson's childhood.

A blonde teacher came over, and the dean said, "This is your father, Ledgerson."

Ledgerson glanced at him, and the man sternly lowered his head and looked at Ledgerson.

"Father." Ledgerson said quietly.

"He is the Archbishop of the Kingdom of the Arc of Light, Iran." Collorin said: "Ledgerson would once become the next body of the Pope, but Grebney went to negotiate with the Legion of Wisdom and was seized by Karb. Now The situation in the Holy See is very chaotic."

Opal said: "He is the actual power?"

Caroline said: "No, no, there are several archbishops who are negotiating with the Legion of Wisdom."

The surrounding environment changed, and Caroline and Opal were in the Holy See.

"He was seven years old at this time." Caroline said.

Ledgerson wore shorts, stood on the balcony, stood on a chair with a chair, and looked staring away into the distance. From his perspective, he could see a round hole in the center of the colored glass window, inside the red round hole It's a scene in another room.

Opal and Caroline were standing behind him. Opal wanted to move forward to climb the chair and watch with Ledgerson, but was stopped by Caroline.

"Hush..." Colleen said: "He is very, very vulnerable at this time, don't disturb him."

"If you go up too, his conscious chair will collapse, causing him to fall beside us. This is what he has always expected."

Opal said: "What is he looking at?"

Colleen said: "Look at Ejean, guess what Ledgerson saw?"

Ledgerson's face changed greatly, climbed off the chair, turned and ran, and the moment he left, Opal immediately jumped into the chair and saw the room diagonally opposite, Yi Rang was stitching his left abdomen.

In just one second of that glance, Opal seemed to see something metallic.

"See?" Colleen asked. "What did you see?"

Opal remembered the metal wires in Raymond's body and said, "I...I don't know. Something flickered in the sun."

Caroline said: "I finally found his weakness."

The surrounding environment changed again.

Ledgerson grew up, he played in front of the piano, flowing through the music like clouds.

Archbishop Yi Rang was lying on the handrail of the garden, his eyes narrowed, the sound of artillery fire came from outside, and the sky was flushed.The space station spins and emits a blazing light, which is then hit by the battleship and gradually falls in the blue sky.

Ledgerson made a trembling sound at his fingertips.

Yi Jean closed his eyes and said, "Continue to sing."

Ledgerson whispered: "When I meditate on all the lively vitality, it's only a moment to keep their fragrant..."

Yi Jean sang in a low voice: "The stage of the universe is only playing tricks; being pulled by the stars of the heavens."

Ledgerson turned his head to his side, and his eyes sorrowed with imperceptible sorrow, chanting: "Shiver, future era, listen to my call: You are not yet born, the beautiful summer is dead."

With another loud noise, Ledgerson couldn't help shaking.

Yi Jean said: "The human age is over, and a new period is coming."

Ledgerson looked up at Yi Jean and asked, "Father, will everyone die?"

Yi Jean said: "Perhaps, destiny is the guide of stars."

The music stopped, and Ledgerson said: "The pope asked us to be kind to our lives and wait for death... The province of monks now..."

"Win is also the guide of the creator, and death is also the guide of the creator." Yi Jean got up and said: "Everything will have an end, which is what the Pope has given us."

He walked out of the garden to the stellar palace.

Caroline: "Guess what he is thinking at this time."

Opal: "I can't guess."

Caroline whispered: "You guessed it, Opal."

Opal stood quietly, and then said: "He is thinking, remembering what he saw when he was seven years old, he suspects that Archbishop Yirang is a copy."

Caroline nodded and said, "Yes, do you think he will whistle against the human army?"

Opal shuddered, and Caroline said, "If it were you, would you?"

"No." Opal said, "No."

Caroline said: "Neither will I."

Opal said: "Did he tell the whistle? Yi Rang was too careless."

Caroline said: "The misfortune of Yirang is a great blessing for mankind. How much do you think the father-son relationship between Ledgerson and Yirang?

Opal Road: "A little indifferent, without me and teacher, me and..."

"There is more between you and me." Colleen said lightly: "Look at this again."

In a dark, night of the kingdom of light arcs, Ledgerson ran wildly in the grass, with light flares flying overhead, and his face was pale with lightning energy.

"Save me--" Ledgerson ran out of life.

Caroline and Opal stood on the road in the dark night, and looked at Ledgerson running across the wilderness. The Replica Legion came in full swing. The sound of bombings followed one after another, and a simple mech made a loud noise across the plain.

The zenith dropped an earthquake bomb, and Ledgerson's young body was lifted by the shock wave, and the mech behind him rushed forward and raised his hand to catch him.Immediately after the incendiary bomb, the sonic bomb covered this area, and the gravel flew around in the Caroline and Opal. Opal was in the explosion and had nothing to do with the explosion.He saw with his own eyes that everything was overturned near the explosion point, the earth flew to the sky, the trees were uprooted and flew in all directions.

At dawn, they stood in the Holy See, in front of a long corridor.

Opal said: "This is where I have lived."

Colleen said: "During that time, Ledgerson also lived here. You see, he woke up."

Opal said: "What time is this?"

Caroline said: "Here are his daydreams, opal, I suddenly found you a little stupid, have you never daydreamed?"

Opal said: "You just found out that I'm stupid and lazy. It's a little late. Daydream? I get it..."

These are the memories of Ledgerson, or maybe fantasy. Opal is very strange. How did Colleen invade here?Is his skill enough to directly read Ledgerson's thoughts?

"Look, he woke up," Carolyn said.

The very small Ledgersen ran barefoot and ran silently across the carpeted corridor, like a quiet cat.

Opal wanted to follow behind him, and Caroline said, "Hush, don't disturb him."

Ledgerson slowed down, and Collorin said: "If I am right, this is the clip between the memories of the two scenes we just saw."

Ledgerson leaned over the door, and without hearing the sound inside, ran to another room at the end of the corridor, went out to the balcony, put the chairs, and stood looking up from the top.

Caroline said: "He must have spied his father so often, you see, very skilled."

Opal said: "Whenever he does this, what is he thinking about?"

Caroline said: "I think he had severe autism when he was young, what do you think?"

Opal nodded slowly, Caroline said: "Art, music geniuses, often have a closed inner world, we might as well assume that he is Ejang, and want to use his child's behavior to show right Yigen’s reward and care. The specific behavior is to peep, learn more, and know what he is doing."

Opal said: "I think Yi Rang also has feelings for Ledgerson. Look, he will save Ledgerson."

Caroline said: "Perhaps. Because we don't know how to copy the emotional world of individuals, how does Raymond behave?"

Opal said: "Every individual has their own emotional orientation. From the day they leave the training cabin, according to the surrounding environment, the people they know will be different. Just like Raymond."

Colleen said: "So at the beginning, Yirang may have adopted an orphan to conceal his original identity as a copyist, until he spent a short two years with Legison..."

Opal said: "Each one regards the other as his own family. But why did he whistle?"

With a smile in his eyes, Collorin said, "He didn't tell the news, but when he saw that the Holy See was destroyed by the war, he had such a little shaking thought."

"The defense of the League of Lights is a turning point for the second invasion of the Legion of Wisdom. In this battle, a thought of Ledgerson influenced the future of the entire universe." Colleen slowly said: "Karb retreat, this is Horius got the time, and Mr. Rector got the way to the ivory tower. Four hundred years later, on the way to the ivory tower, he was intercepted by the Legion of Wisdom. He fell to Shakespeare and met me."

"Everything is because of the idea of ​​Ledgerson, so now I will stand here, and you stand here too. We can know and we have to thank him. This reason finally became the result of Ledgerson."

Opal: "..."

The piano stops.

"Teacher." Ledgerson said: "After a long absence, are you here to take my life?"

Rector took off the cap of the cloak and said, "I'm here to atone, Ledgerson, kill me, eliminate all your hatred, and then end all the mistakes you made because of hatred."
