Ark, they don't revolve around you

"Doctor, your umbrella!!!" Kong stretched out his hand and suddenly discovered the secret of the umbrella.

It was so heavy, how could it be an ordinary umbrella? It must contain a sword made of Originium, something that could be sold at a high price on the black market...

"This is for you!" Zhuang Ning opened his heart for the last time, "Go home, Kong!"

"A little girl shouldn't stay outside on a rainy day like this!"

He walked faster and faster, like a swift facing a rainstorm. The obstacles were right in front of him and he had no choice. If the rainstorm wanted to stop him, he could only tear it apart!

just now.

I have to find Kelsey...

Chapter 35: Rhode Island will never allow a second voice

What a heavy rain.

Such a rainstorm is rare in Longmen. In front of the curtain, Kal'tsit stared at the heavy rain with dim eyes, which seemed to be able to wash away her sins.

The work at hand has come to an end, and Rhodes Island may have some free time in the future. She has been intentionally guiding others, and Zhuang Ning seems to have accepted this arrangement and has become more cheerful little by little.

But deep down in Kal'tsit's heart, there is still a hint of uneasiness that cannot be easily erased, and this spreading emotion can easily interfere with her judgment.

The sound of footsteps was heard.

Someone came quietly, like a floating ghost.

"Doctor." She didn't turn around.

Her heart moved, and she felt a rare fear, her heart was gripped.

But when Kal'tsit turned around, she only saw the doctor, who was soaked by the rain, with a smile on his face. He said softly, "Let's talk, Kal'tsit."

Let's talk about it - about some issues that neither you nor I can avoid.

In the reception room, Zhuang Ning changed into casual clothes, dried his hair and body, sighed, and said lightly: "We have been working together for four years."

"In the past four years, you and I have been working well together... or should I say you have been working with me. After all, I just woke up and know nothing. Whether it is the secrets of the various countries in Terra or the contradictory status of Rhodes Island, you taught them all."

"In a sense, you are my teacher, Kal'tsit—"

She was silent, and the uneasiness spread.

Zhuang Ning didn't mind and pushed out document after document. This month he was busy with more than just Longmen's affairs. Although he was still smiling, the smile in his eyes disappeared and became as cold as iron.

"I feel bad that you're so busy, but Lucille has complained to me several times. You're the head of the medical department, and you're also responsible for the overall strategy and crisis response."

Even the tone was so cordial and impeccable.

Finally, Kal'tsit took action and picked up the white paper. When she saw the title, her pupils shrank. She bit her lower lip and trembled as she said, "Why?"

"Didn't I tell you?" Zhuang Ning leaned back, relaxed and happy, "You're too busy."

"Kal'tsit, there are so many patients in the medical department, so leave the responsibilities of the human resources department to me..."

"Afterwards, I will manage your people. You only need to be in charge of the medical department."

It was still a smile on her face, but the words she uttered were like sharp knives with thorns, making Kal'tsit feel suffocated.

No one could deny her status. She was a veteran of the Tower of Babel and one of the earliest people to follow Theresa. She founded Rhodes Island, and even after the collapse of the Tower of Babel, it was she who supported it and struggled to keep it going.

However, when everything was getting better, this man showed his fangs, like a beast fighting for the throne. He divided her power, placed her in a very high position, but did not allow her to have the opportunity to control Rhodes Island again.

"I don't agree." Kal'tsit said calmly.

She had no greed for power and even hated it. This old woman who had lived too long hated such emotions. But now, her heart, which should have been as calm as an ancient well, was once again stirred up by ripples.

Being trampled upon unreasonably by a man.

"I disagree!"

Rhode Island is different.

More importantly, Doctor, you...

"You must agree. Now the decision-makers on the island have signed. They approve of this move." Zhuang Ning's face turned cold. "You have no right to refuse, Kal'tsit!"

Kal'tsit was a little shaken.

Looking down at the end of the white paper, there are indeed many signatures, the names of elite operators, as well as veterans such as Warfarin and Klushier.

She was deposed.

Kelsey looked at him blankly and whispered, "Why?"

"Why?" Zhuang Ning lowered his eyes. "Do you want to hear the official reason? Or, my opinion?"

"I want to hear what you think." She doesn't care what others think.

Zhuang Ning looked strange.

At this moment, he took off his disguise and murmured the whisper that he had kept hidden for a long time.

"There are a lot." He folded his hands together. "You are not suited to this."

"——Kal'tsit, you are not fit to hold power." The man said coldly, as if it was a declaration, "You can't make people follow you sincerely. You always have a cold face and say things that others can't understand."

"Sometimes you are as cold as a rock, but sometimes you are always soft-hearted. You have allowed people to destroy the capital of Kazdel several times, but you dare not really let the Sarkaz be exterminated."

"Your knowledge, in many cases, is not only not helpful, but also a burden."

"And the most important thing is - you can't bring victory!"

This time he spoke very seriously, and every word he uttered was like a hammer hitting the woman's chest. Zhuang Ning looked down at his old colleague and laughed indifferently: "Otherwise, why did you wake me up?"

"Why did you wake me up from the sarcophagus?"

"Don't act like we have a good relationship, Kal'tsit... Have you forgotten? You never trusted me!"

"You doubt me, you think I'm a bad guy, you think I'll do anything to win..."

They were very close, so close that they could even feel each other's breath. This woman was originally very beautiful. Thousands of years of time had left the most indelible marks on her body.

But the man in front of her didn't care at all, as if he was looking at an alien. No matter how beautiful she was, he would not be shaken. He smiled coldly: "You are right."

"Kal'tsit, you only stand in my way... Hand over the power and put your protests back in your mouth."

"I will win and bring you what you want...just know that!"

It was hard for Kal'tsit to imagine that she had the urge to cry.

How cold-hearted! It turned out that the Doctor had some complaints and hatred towards her. From the moment he woke up, someone had put the responsibility on Zhuang Ning's shoulders. No one asked him whether he wanted to do it or not. He was naturally the firefighter of Rhodes Island.

then.

What kind of people does he interact with? Amiya? Yes, Amiya is very nice, but Amiya is also very tired and can't take care of herself.

Except for Scout and ACE, all the operators who claimed to be veterans, including Kal'tsit, were reserved and suspicious of him.

He opened his heart again and again.

He tried again and again to gain recognition.

But what is the result?

Until the end, Zhuang Ning didn't realize that he deeply hated those who awakened him.

If I didn't wake up, would there not be so many tragedies?

Why don't you just kill me... You clearly don't trust me at all and think of me as a cruel evil spirit!

Damn it, he was already tired of those meaningless riddles, a bunch of incompetent people, who had great ideals but accomplished nothing!

Now, it's time to change the world.

He must not have a second voice in Rhodes Island!

Chapter 36 You Shouldn't Let Me Wake Up

In a trance, Kal'tsit recalled the winter when the Doctor woke up. It was a winter even harsher than any other. It was like a huge hungry beast, destroying one life after another in a panic.

The fire of the Reunion Movement was extinguished, and its embers spread to all parts of the continent. Rhodes Island was finally able to survive, avoiding the reality of being involved in a larger dispute, and left Lungmen and set foot on the vast wilderness.

Amiya was still asleep because of using the ring, so there were only two people left to make decisions on this huge landship. They were all standing in the corridor, the heating was sufficient, and in front of the tall French windows was a scene of falling snow, white snow, fluttering in the north.

"Kal'tsit, do you hate me?" the man asked her.

Kal'tsit remained silent. Hatred? Perhaps there was some, not just her. As long as the collapse of the Tower of Babel was involved, no one would not suspect the Doctor.

I'm afraid only ACE and Scout would defend him, but after all, they are weak and alone, so this can only be considered a small consolation.

"If you hate me and fear me so much, why did you wake me up?"

"Why not just kill me... Oh, because you need me. Because Amiya needs me."

The doctor seemed to be mocking, but his expression under the mask was lonely. He just looked ahead. Perhaps he expected the woman to say something, even just a little bit of comfort.

But Kal'tsit did not respond, like a wooden puppet, and would not move unless she was given clear instructions.

The doctor was right, he was indeed a fearful person. But doubt or fear, if Rhodes Island wanted to find a ray of hope in the destruction, it had to rely on him.

That's all. As for more trust, don't think too much about it. If the doctor has the idea of ​​betrayal, I'm afraid Ascalon's knife will pierce this man's back and retaliate in the most brutal way.

After so much time, the doctor has proven himself to be different from before. His performance, his conversation, and the victories he has brought have made everyone who joins Rhodes Island believe in the doctor. Even his relationship with the core backbone has improved, and more people are willing to trust him.

However, the contradictions, doubts, and questions hidden deep inside have never dissipated. Can people trust the evil spirits at the Tower of Babel?

As a result, people drifted away from him one by one, and he gradually became alone, with his shadow lengthened in the sunset. Finally, he gave up on himself and locked himself in the laboratory for half a year, working like a madman to make medicine.

During that time, Zhuang Ning realized how ridiculous he was before. Why did he feel that this was his home? Why did he always want to be recognized by others?

As weak as a sheep and as humble as an ant.

Damn Rhodes Island, no matter what you say, it's just an enterprise, a company, those concepts, those cultures, everything, are not credible!

Those people never considered you as one of their own, so they didn't feel any attachment to their homeland? The funny thing is that you always want to be recognized!

Fuck...

Zhuang Ning's eyes turned cold. He treated Kal'tsit very well. The work was easy and she was only responsible for the medical department. In name, her status was even higher than his.

But all the power has been taken back. Rhodes Island is Zhuang Ning's tool, and an indispensable thing for the alliance. Even if he is called a tyrant and dictator, the doctor cannot allow anyone to keep pace with him and pose a threat.

"Sign it, Kal'tsit." The sound of rain never stopped. The reception room was extremely dim, and the doctor did not leave any room for maneuver.
