Is It Really Ark of Tomorrow?

'If it was really that easy to solve, would I even let you come over now?I don't want Margaret to meet someone like you. '

'All right, all right, all right, I'm the worst, okay?So are you going to let your niece see the true face of the world? '

'Take her there.Now that her awareness has reached this level, maybe it's just a matter of opportunity. '

"Uncle? Li Lin?"

"Ah, well, let's see."

The two who had stopped chatting coughed, and Li Lin looked at the confused Margaret and said with a smile:

"You can go to our company to have a look and then make a decision. Then you can get a general understanding of what the Chamber of Commerce and the current situation is like for Kasimir."

"Yes."

Margaret looked at the two people in front of her and nodded in confusion, not knowing what kind of ending she would fall into.

Chapter 20 Soul Shock

In fact, both Li Lin and Manna were right about Margaret and the business union.

For Li Lin, in fact, what he cares about is not the identity of Fang Zhouyao knight, but the interests represented by the Linguang family.

As a family with a long history and outstanding military achievements, the old Pegasus is close to the level that the medicine stone can't heal. There is a research project between Manna and Alice, which is to try to save the soul alone, and whether it can be resurrected in the border area.And Manna voluntarily gave up everything and chose to live in the territory of Casimir, which was regarded as directly giving up their family inheritance and the glory they had.In the same way, it is regarded as giving up the relationship carried by them.

Noble knights need to rely on the relationship network to communicate.Even if they are comrades-in-arms, they only recognize your family and you.But when you deny the family and your own knighthood, there is no need for them to protect.But the current situation is clear to Manna, the Chamber of Commerce and the others are all human spirits, they can only accept the fate of Manna waiting to die, and then choose some weak ones to become the captains of the Linguang family.

Therefore, once Margaret showed an ability beyond imagination, the Board of Supervisors would inevitably sit idly by, and all political and public opinion pressure would be on Lao Linguang and Manna.Because what they touched were not direct interests, but deeper, unwritten rules.

That is such a secret unwritten rule that the Knight Family and the Supervisory Committee will no longer interfere with the actions of the Chamber of Commerce.Once the rules are broken, there is once to rely on, which is intolerable for the business association.

Therefore, they will inevitably make the most extreme reaction, forcing the other party to make a decision that is in line with everyone's superficial and invisible interests.This is the interaction of politics.

But at the same time, Linguang is still a long-distance rider. Once he is drawn in, it means that the Supervisory Committee and the Silver Spear Heavenly Horse will greatly move closer to him.

Hinnom Valley does have a good business relationship with the knights on the border, but that's just business.Those wargroups and warbands each have their own ideas, and it would be too strange to take others' good intentions for granted.

So sometimes, it is necessary to accept some reality.For example, he personally pushed the female student who admired him to the brink of hell, and then witnessed what the world really looked like with the company of his relatives.Whenever he realizes this, Li Lin feels that part of his conscience has been bitten.

But this period of time has been too much, it is better to say that when Linguang was sent in blindfolded, a group of people almost took out the reality anchor and shot it. It was not so much that Linguang was frightened, but the inside The staff were taken aback.As soon as they heard that it was possible for Yao Knight to join their team, a group of people professionally fiddled with the equipment and waited to stuff Linguang into it.

"Uncle, Li Lin? Why are you blindfolded?"

"Because many things cannot be explained just by looking at them with the eyes."

After making a few gestures to the surrounding staff, Li Lin took the palm of the ignorant Yao Knight and walked down gradually.

And Margaret also followed behind Li Lin step by step.As the cavalier of the knight family, she naturally also learned blind fighting and fighting in dark environments.But things seem a little weird now.

In Margaret's perception, they seemed to be moving forward.It sank to an unimaginable level.If estimated from Margaret's own perception, the area they dived probably already exceeded the thickness of the mobile city led by the Great Knights.And it is far more than that.

But the feeling of sinking still didn't stop. After waiting for a long time, Margaret felt the weightlessness on her body gradually disappear.And Li Lin took off the black cloth in front of him casually.Margaret got used to the dim light outside, and at the same time, she clearly saw the translucent coffin-like instrument that sealed her.

Because the opposite is an extremely huge mirror-like structure, Margaret can clearly see that she is standing in this huge instrument.And Li Lin, who had been holding hands in the impression, had retreated to the edge of the platform with the Manna Instrument at some point, and gradually disappeared into the darkness.Feeling something was wrong, Margaret tried to move her body, looked at her uncle and her trusted idol and asked:

"Wait a minute, Uncle, Li Lin? What is this?"

"It is an instrument that allows you to see the real world."

Manna said calmly, her figure slowly disappearing into the shadows, with only her voice echoing.

"When you pass the test, we will meet again in another dimension. Then you will realize your stupidity, Margaret."

"Uncle? Uncle! What are you talking about, Uncle!"

Seeing Manna who turned and left, Margaret, who was tied up in the cabin, tapped the translucent mask with some anxiety.

However, in the next instant, all light was cut off, and everything around was plunged into pure darkness.Only the countless light blue stripes condensed into entities in Margaret's pupils.

Numerous imprints flowing from the melting pot of souls that have been verified by rivers were branded in Margaret's pupils, making her consciousness gradually break through the barrier between reality and virtuality.And in the surrounding area, the ring array formed by the raw stone minerals began to move gradually and rapidly, and tore open layers of dark cracks like water waves in the middle.

It’s like being submerged in some kind of body of water, like being back in your favorite bathtub in the heyday of your homeland.The gentle but invisible liquid wrapped Margaret's body from head to toe, making her tense limbs gradually loosen.The surrounding material structures that were originally restrained seemed to no longer exist, and Margaret stretched her limbs blankly, experiencing a completely different feeling.

It was as if she had finally escaped from a certain shackle and faced her true self.

Then, the blue light formed a waterfall of words, pouring down in front of Margaret.

'Specific individual entry detected. '

'Meme transcription begins'

'The spell is automatically generated'

'The furnace of souls has been opened'

'The river gates are open'

'Real twist mechanism processing completed'

'Carrier: Margaret Linguang'

'Let us enter the dark river together and become one with all things. '

'We are one, let matter separate us.Now, we finally returned to the warm and dark hometown. '

The light blue sigil began to gradually transform, and the original solid protective layer turned into water droplets, wrapping Margaret in darkness.

The comprehensible words gradually dissolved into a light blue light, the fine runes began to decompose into indescribable imprints in the pupils, and the invisible singing began to linger in his heart.

The torrent of consciousness from Casimir slowly submerged her, allowing her thoughts to travel along the river.Facing the imprint of describing the truth in the world, Margaret's pupils widened even more, as if she wanted to imprint all the splendid things in her heart.

"I... seem to understand everything..."

Witnessing the unimaginable scene, Margaret murmured in a low voice.

Chapter 21 Crazy Knowledge

What exactly is a river?Everyone has a different answer.

For Li Lin, it is the cornerstone of this world.For Manna, this is a prop to redeem her family.For Dicaiopolis, this was the only way to save the infected.It's just that he still doesn't have an accurate grasp of it.

For the employees of Hinnom Valley, this is their hometown and the place where they will be buried forever.Their names are never known, and their deeds live on.In this eternal river, because of a resurrected person, it became full of ripples. The soul machine that was forged in the originally calm river was like a pump, pulling out the silt inside layer by layer, and forging the entity. Cosmic props.

However, for those existences hidden in the deeper layers of the ocean of consciousness deep in the river, those who have already used the river to forge vessels and influence the existence of the world, for them the river is a tool to manipulate the world, and it is also their unique feature.I'm afraid that for those demons outside the region, the river is like their hometown.Especially when it is found that the more inaccessible the place is, the weaker the barrier between the river and reality is, this is even more implicitly confirmed.

Of course, all of these are conjectures and assumptions. A river is a river, an objective phenomenon that exists in the world, can be used, can find laws, and can also be the help and hope of others.

But, for Margaret, what is a river?

The river is a mirror.

But what it reflects is not Margaret Linguang's face, but her heart.

Everything in the past was dissolved in the river, and bits and pieces that she thought she had forgotten began to emerge in her mind, and made her realize the reason for shaping her character.

'You think that everything you do is for the justice and honor of the Linguang family, and you think that your actions are so correct that you can shatter the haze of Casimir.But what if the world is not what you imagined? '

'If there is deeper oppression and suffering in this world, can your actions be called justice?Your beliefs and actions are formed by the family, but do you know the secrets passed down in the family? '

'You have forgotten a lot of things, but you are happy.You believe that if you touch all that, you're not you anymore.But life is never something that can be spent by ignoring something. Those things that are secretly abandoned and forgotten often become deadly poison. '

The small whispers sounded from her heart, and Margaret couldn't tell whether she was dreaming or awake.

In the warm river, the past of Margaret Linguang began to be gradually dissolved, and turned into pictures and scrolls, which were displayed in front of her.

"Margaret, you must be an upright and trustworthy child who lives up to the reputation of the Linguang family.You must not be dragged down by those meddling, and you must be cautious about the kindness of others.The reputation of the Linguang family cannot be taken away. '

'My dear, don't say such things to children. '

'Sorry, I'm just a little...'

In a magnificent living room, Margaret's father, the man who really wanted to inherit Linguang's patriarchal riding, showed a somewhat heavy expression, looked at Margaret and sighed, and rubbed her head.

Margaret knew it because her father received a call and a message.A once-familiar family has degenerated due to its own reasons and has become a hateful and ugly monster.Betrayed the entire Cavaliers Alliance, and also betrayed their covenant.

Although she was very young, that memory gave Margaret a strong hint, a hint that she could not betray her.The so-called growth is the soul that is piled up one by one such details.But when people reflect, they often forget where the reverberations of the soul sounded.

And watching that scene, Margaret finally realized why she was so obsessed with the honor of the Linguang family and breaking the haze of Casimir.

It was an idea that had been imprinted in my mind unconsciously since I was a child.

"..."

It was as if a lost fragment had been refilled in, and the original flowing shell had gradually shaped its original shape.

And those hazy thoughts also turned into streams of light and dissipated in the darkness.Then, another picture that should be familiar to me emerged in the warm darkness.

'...give me five minutes. '

'Father, mother, where are you going? '

'Sorry, boy, we can't say.Think of it as Mom and Dad going to the north to buy you some souvenirs. '

The man in armor and the woman who had packed her luggage looked at Margaret gently, and stood in front of the gate.The entrustment that followed was imprinted in Margaret's mind like an engraving.

The conquest knights took her sun, her pride away.She could only go back to the room, hugged her young sister, and matured in a real sense, wanting to face the storm that she never thought of facing.

And after that, when she heard that her uncle didn't want to inherit the honor of long cavalry, what was Margaret's real thought?Is it the anger of being betrayed?Or annoyed at being denied by loved ones?Or did he really want to inherit the glory of the Linguang family?

Countless fragments and torrents, countless memories and reminiscences gradually emerged from the darkness as light spots, filling Margaret's body once again.

It was her everything, her soul.

The fleshy body emerging from the river slowly touched the solid ground, Margaret slowly opened her eyes, and what she saw was her naked body.

The feeling of withdrawing from the understanding of everything made her feel a little regretful, but the training of knight instinct still made her aware that there seemed to be another person in the room.

But when he saw the man standing at the door staring at his naked body, the young knight Yao Linguang blushed quickly, covered his chest and squatted down, looked at Li Lin with teary eyes, opened his mouth and just thought something to say.

Then she saw Li Lin take out a notice board with a blank face and insert it on the ground with a 'boom', signaling Linguang to look at the words written on it.

'Don't be shy, I've seen everybody naked.A lot of times I have to not do it because the field of soul studies is really scary.I had to be there in person to make sure things were okay.But later when you inherit the soul armament, you can do whatever you want. '

Li Lin, who was standing at the door, looked at Margaret with a shy face, and pointed to the written words above with a blank expression.That appearance is not so much seeing the body of the green onion girl, it is more like seeing something dirty.

Then, under Linguang's shocked gaze, the notice board quickly turned over, revealing the words on the back.

’ And to be honest, I don’t really want to watch it.It would be better to say that I was forced to come here.As for why, you will soon find out. '

"...?"

Margaret's brain froze for a moment when she was seen naked by the same age of the opposite sex for the first time but received such an evaluation.
