Throne of Radiance

"Mr. K.?"

This name stunned Rhine for a moment, and then he reacted, and a possible candidate popped up in his mind: "Ah, you mean, that Skywalker?"

"Skywalker?" The other party was obviously taken aback, and then laughed, the kind who bent down and covered his mouth and laughed out of breath, "Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha is the title spread so widely now but then laughed

"?" Rhine was confused.

If it were him before, he might be at a loss, and even subconsciously apologize, thinking that he said something wrong, but now, even he himself has not noticed that his character has undergone a subtle change from the inside out.

Therefore, he just glanced at it lightly, and expressed his doubts bluntly: "Is there any problem with this name?"

"No, no, no problem. It's just that he doesn't like being called like that." The person who laughed out loud seemed to have finally calmed down and straightened up bit by bit.

He looked at Rhine solemnly, and explained: "Probably, it's the subtle discomfort of being called a decent person by someone who doesn't know the truth, right?"

While speaking, the smile on his face seemed unstoppable, and the corners of his mouth pulled up exaggeratedly.

And Rhine was finally able to see the true face of this person.

Wearing a neat white coat, neatly combed short dark brown hair, and a face that looks upright and reliable at first glance, appearing in this clean and tidy clinic, he looks like a serious, reliable and responsible person. Doctor image.

But his exaggerated smile and the mist in his dark brown pupils reduced his serious, reliable and responsible image layer by layer, turning it into frivolous and unreliable.

Rhine frowned subconsciously, and leaned back once.Although such an action was forcibly stopped by him in the next second.

But the other party noticed even this tiny detail: "You seem to be a little against me? No, it's not me. Is it the clothes on my body that make you uncomfortable?" Soon, the other party noticed Rhine's reaction The real reason in the middle, "There is no way, who let this identity be a doctor?"

Rhine: "..."

Although I didn't see this person's face clearly when I just woke up, I always feel that the other person's current temperament is slightly different from the moment when he just came in with breakfast?

However, now is not the time to delve into these.

As a severely wounded ship that had just been rescued, Rhine was still able to distinguish priorities.He politely ignored what he said just now, and continued the topic at the beginning: "So, the person who saved me last night was that Mr. K?"

"Of course, besides him, who else would be so free to go out in the middle of the night when it was raining heavily, and stroll to the vicinity of the National Secret Research Institute?" The unknown doctor replied with a smile, "However, it was not last night, it was three days Oh, before. It has been three full days since you were rescued."

"Three days?" Rhine was startled again.

"Yeah, the noise you made is not small. I think you should have guessed it—these three days, the news of #帝国一级研究研究闻# has been buzzing."

While speaking, the other party grabbed the remote control on the bedside table, and "clicked" to turn on the TV on the opposite wall.

"...Now you can turn on any TV station, and you can see relevant news. Maybe seeing it with your own eyes will give you a deeper feeling?"

Rhine's eyebrows were tightly wrinkled.

On the TV screen, the voice of the news host floated out——

"In the middle of the night on the 26th, the N-277 national first-level research base located on the outskirts of Yindu, the capital of the empire, was attacked. A group of unknown forces broke into the research base with guns and had a fierce battle with the base security forces, killing seven researchers. dead, 7 soldiers killed on the spot, 47 wounded..."

"This is a premeditated terrorist attack! It is a provocation to the empire! The empire will never tolerate criminals!"

"According to Dr. Wynn, the person in charge of the N-277 research base, the N-277 research base is also one of the research bases of the Imperial #Human Gene Evolution# subject. In the past 20 years, many remarkable research results have been achieved. He has made great contributions to the field of overcoming intractable diseases. Not long ago, he obtained new research results, which provided a very favorable experimental direction for the #humangene evolution# project..."

"This sudden terrorist attack is likely to snatch the latest research results of the N-277 research base and delay the success of the #humangene evolution# project. They are destroying the future of the Morningstar Empire..."

"The attack on the N-277 research base is a provocation to the entire Morning Star Empire. Dr. Wells, the general director of the #humangene evolution# project, said that what they are engaged in is a great cause that benefits all mankind, and is for The evolution of all mankind. No matter what despicable means the enemy uses, it is doomed to fail to meet them..."

"Terror, terror, attack, attack? A great cause that is beneficial to all mankind..." Rhine murmured and repeated the words used by the other party.His body trembled and bent down, his drooping face almost touched the quilt covering his body, words and phrases came out from between his clenched teeth, "Ha! You can really say it!"

"——these bastards who spit shit out of their mouths!"

His body seemed to be trembling due to excessive anger, which made his suppressed voice seem to contain a volcano that was about to erupt. Rhine's bent waist straightened again, and his drooping head was lifted up bit by bit, his eyes burning with anger. His eyes were fixed on the TV screen on the opposite wall again.

But his voice gradually regained his composure.

He said in a cold voice without emotion: "...you can say such things. In the past, I really underestimated their shamelessness. Maybe this is a politician."

"Wow, the eyes are a bit scary, buddy!" Another person in the room let out a slightly exaggerated exclamation, and the doctor reminded in a playful voice, "After you go out, you'd better cover it up. Otherwise, I really I'm afraid that if you walk out of the clinic with your front foot, you will be reported as a wanted fugitive with your back foot."

"...I became an unscrupulous black doctor harboring wanted criminals."

"It sounds like the last sentence is the focus of your attention?" Rhine, who had suppressed all her emotions, tried to tease back with the same tone, "I'm so sympathetic, doctor."

He was half leaning against the head of the bed, his body was covered with a snow-white quilt, and almost all the exposed body parts were wrapped in bandages, even his face was no exception.Only a pair of eyes glowing with a faint blue light protruded from the gap in the bandage, and there was an extremely hard-to-detect vigilance and defense in the depths of the eyes.Like a beast rescued in the wild, even if the wounds all over the body are covered, it is still difficult to trust humans.

"If I leave now, even if I am not reported as a wanted criminal, I will be discovered by the ubiquitous surveillance system of the empire and taken away as a member of a terrorist attack?" He laughed self-deprecatingly, "To At that time, I am afraid that no one will pay attention to lying on the experimental table justifiably."

——If in the past three days, the news and public opinion in the empire had been the same as that on TV, reversing the identities of the victim and the perpetrator, Rhine would have guessed how much righteous indignation is now on the Internet cursing terrorists without looking at the phone If it were him before, most of them would have become one of them.

But after going through so much, the imperial government no longer has the slightest credibility in Rhine's eyes, it's like shit among shit!

He was the person involved in this incident, and the gap between the truth and the news was enough to make Rhine suspect that in the past 20 years of his life, how many events that were hidden in the dark and unknown had happened in this empire. In the end, the truth was covered up by lies similar to "terrorist attacks"?And how many times should the ordinary people of the empire have been misled and deceived like this?

Truth, justice, axioms, do these illusory things really exist in this country? ? ?

——He has reasons to believe that if the commotion that night hadn't been too great to cover up perfectly, there wouldn't even be news reports of terrorist attacks on TV.Everything will pass without incident, and no one will know that a bloody battle took place on the outskirts of Yindu.

——And he will be secretly arrested in the near future, lose his freedom again, and lie down on a cold experimental table.

Having lived as a good citizen step by step for nearly 30 years, Rhine's trust in this country was completely shattered.

In the past six months or less, his world has been repeatedly shattered, put together, shattered, and put together again.

First, he was forced to accept the sudden death of his parents, and he himself turned into an isolated island in this world, confused and directionless.After that, he got an adventure by accident, became a member with mysterious power, and regained his family and friends, and then started a new life... But when his life was on the right track and he thought he had happiness again, everything Everything dissipated like a dream bubble.Not only did he lose the family and friends he had for a short time, but he also lost his freedom, becoming a sad prisoner and a rat in a cage.

After finally escaping, on that blood-red rainstorm night, he faced the real dark side of the country.

——Behind that underground research institute is the Morning Star Empire.

The hell that smashed his freedom and dignity as a human being and tried to deprive him of everything was created by the empire that was supposed to protect him.Even if he fled temporarily, the other party refused to give up.

Whether it is because of the aggressiveness of the other party, for the purpose of protecting himself, or to vent the anger that has nowhere to vent in his heart, or out of the simplest concept of revenge, he must do so, and for the rest of his life, he will be an enemy of this huge empire.

——This is something that is enough to make people feel hopeless.

Even though he now has power beyond ordinary people, how can he be an enemy of an empire by virtue of his own weakness?That is not something that can be done with just a few words in the novels of Secondary School.

Because his enemy is a country built by countless people, and it is one of the most powerful countries on this planet.

Even now that he is suspected to be rescued by the mysterious transcendent "Skywalker", there seems to be a special organization behind the other party. The power of this organization even allows him to avoid the first batch of arrests by the Morningstar Empire. Don't worry about safety just yet.But hope is still bleak, and Rhine can only see the darkness ahead.

unless……

"Can I join you?"

After a brief silence, the man on the hospital bed raised his head.

"Or, how can I join you?"
