People are on the Ark, assisting Oma Zi-O

"But there are a lot of things in that manual that I don't understand. Doctor, since you're already here, why don't you work overtime?"

"What? Wait! I refuse!"

"Refusal is invalid! Who told you to leave this mess to me?! You have to teach me what I don't understand now!"

"Quack! Kal'tsit, save me!"

"Ah~"

Chapter 400: Fuck him!

Regarding the fact that Ark was taken away by Kal'tsit to give her extra lessons, although Amiya wanted to stop it, she was pulled out of the engineering department by Kal'tsit.

"He assigned the task himself, and now that he's running into difficulties, it's time for him to help out. The huge tome he gave to Kruthier earlier turned out to be just a table of contents. God knows how he managed to get through all this time trying to finish all that Kruthier did."

During the day, she has to complete the work of the engineering department and take care of the operation of the convenience store. At night, she seems to have to go back to read those big books. Although Kal'tsit always works late or even all night, she knows what a normal and healthy lifestyle should be like, and also requires others to have a healthy lifestyle, although she herself has never been healthy.

"Miss Kluchil has indeed had a difficult time during this period."

By the time Ark broke free from Kal'thir's clutches, it was already the third day. Kal'tsit didn't know whether they had been fighting with the advanced knowledge or had carried out some other activities in the middle. Anyway, when Ark came back, she directly submitted a vacation application to Amiya, and then went straight back to the bedroom and fell asleep.

Although Fang Zhou had unlimited energy and had long been accustomed to a normal sleep schedule, he still felt that he had to make up for the missed sleep, otherwise he would feel uncomfortable all over.

But unlike Fang Zhou, Kalshiel, who also walked out of the engineering department, looked radiant, and even her eyes were shining with a dazzling light of hope.

Ark and Krosier are two people who are an extreme contrast.

"I hope the Doctor can have a good rest for a while."

After approving Fang Zhou's vacation application, Amiya looked at Fang Zhou who turned and left with some worry in her eyes.

"He will definitely have a good rest, but don't worry about his body. With those magical spells, his body will be fine no matter who else has problems."

Taking out the horse charm and dog charm from her pocket, Kal'tsit was sometimes really shocked by the power of these two charms.

In the pre-civilization period of history, it was not easy to keep the brain of a carbon-based intelligent life permanently awake and energetic. It required many tedious steps to achieve it. However, the Ark only needed a small piece of stone to be worn close to the body to achieve the same effect.

"This really is magic."

"Dr. Kelsey, what did you just say?"

"No, nothing, just feeling a little sentimental about these spells."

Shaking the two talismans in her hand, Kal'tsit checked the operation of the Xumagia at various positions through her mobile phone. After confirming that all the Xumagia were operating normally at their respective positions, today's work was over.

That’s right, after all the work was taken over by artificial intelligence, the specific work assigned to individuals has become very thin, with the engineering department being the only exception.

After all, a lot of the work in the Engineering Department involves things like Originium skills. And it has been proven many times that Xumagia has no way to use Originium skills flexibly, and can only release Originium skills at a fixed frequency through the spell unit machinery. This also makes other people in Rhodes Island who need Originium skills breathe a sigh of relief.

Even on Rhodes Island, there is a career crisis.

As for what she should do with the rest of her time, Kal'tsit usually pays more attention to the research and development progress of the Originium blocker, and the rest of the time she pays attention to the development direction of advanced medicine in this land. From time to time, she also has to reject several invitations to scientific research summits.

The name Kal'tsit still carries considerable weight in the medical community on Terra. Under normal circumstances, she would not be so ruthless as to reject all of these summits without a single one left. After all, Rhodes Island still needs to build a reputation.

But in this situation, how could she afford to make a name for herself? With the enemy nipping at her heels, she was already too busy dealing with things here to worry about the other side. Could she please spare her time?

It seems that after spending so much time with Ark, Kal'tsit has actually learned to slack off and is no longer like before, always forcing herself to work overtime. Well, this is also related to the fact that the situation in Rhodes Island is getting better.

Kal'tsit was flipping through several recently published medical papers, while Amiya was sitting beside her with her eyes closed, meditating.

This is what she has been doing for the past two days, immersing herself in the "continuation of civilization", coming into contact with the emotions and knowledge of the Demon King that remained in the Black Crown, absorbing nutrients from the past to enrich herself.

In this process, Amiya naturally gained a lot. In the past two days, he has been in contact with an ancient Sarkaz demon king named Quillon. By accessing his memories, Amiya's attainments in swordsmanship are constantly improving.

If compared to herself a month ago, Amiya can confidently say that she can defeat a hundred of her past selves with just her swordsmanship.

At the same time, in addition to Quillon, Amiya also came into contact with the memories of the Banshee Demon King known as the "Leader of the Elegy" in history, which enabled her to make great progress in the curses of the Banshee clan.

Amiya now feels very urgent. Although Kal'tsit and Ark told her to relax and that it was okay, Amiya's heart would always be in turmoil when she thought of Elki's prophecy.

If people already know where the future is headed, they will never repeat the same mistakes. Now that you are with everyone in Rhodes Island, including Dr. Kal'tsit and the Doctor, there is absolutely no way you can fail, and you cannot fail yourself.

Dr. Kal'tsit, the Doctor, and everyone else in Rhodes Island has placed their hopes on me, and I absolutely cannot let them down.

Amiya, who thought so, although usually appeared relaxed, actually felt a lot of pressure inside.

Naturally, everything did not escape Kal'tsit's eyes, but at this point she could no longer do anything for the child. She could only support her behind the scenes, nothing more.

Looking at the scorching sun high in the sky outside, Kal'tsit casually stacked the paper in her hand on the documents next to her. Looking at Amiya, who was already tired because of being overly immersed in Black Crown, Kal'tsit stepped forward and gently pushed her shoulder.

"Hmm? Dr. Kelsey?"

Amiya woke up from the Black Crown and looked at Doctor Lynx standing in front of her.

"Take a break and come with me to have a meal. It's already lunchtime."

"Is it this time already?"

Amiya glanced down at her watch and saw that the time had indeed passed 11 o'clock and the minute hand had passed 6 o'clock. It was already past 11:30 and it was past time to get off work.

"Should we go call the Doctor? I know he wants to rest, but he should also eat."

Amiya said this, and Kal'tsit nodded. With Kal'tsit's support, Amiya's expression brightened a little, and she immediately prepared to go to Ark's bedroom to help Ark, who was still sleeping on the Simmons mattress, escape from the misery of the bed.

However, just as Amiya and the other girl were heading towards the Ark dormitory, the guy who was originally their target was already standing in front of them.

"Doctor? Have you rested enough? It's been less than four hours..."

Before Amiya could finish her words, Fang Zhou stopped her and immediately handed the tablet in his hand to Amiya.

"This is……"

"Just now, the two balloon satellites we launched yesterday were found to be abnormal. You two should take a look. I have called Frémont and the others. If they are correct, Amiya..."

Fang Ark didn't finish his words, but Amiya and Kal'tsit already knew what he meant.

enemy.

Amiya quickly opened the satellite surveillance image on the tablet, but because it was shot from a high altitude, the two could not see anything clearly at first. They could only see a blurry black shadow moving in the red and yellow wilderness.

"That is……"

Staring at the black shadow, Amiya seemed to want to see clearly what it was. As this thought came into her mind, the image in the surveillance video began to gradually zoom in, locking onto the black shadow.

As the image continued to zoom in, Amiya and Kal'tsit finally saw clearly what the black shadow was.

"That's... a person?"

Those were indeed people, groups of people.

But at this time, Amiya's face turned pale, because she could tell at a glance that those people were not normal.

Their faces were as pale as corpses, their eyes were empty, and they moved slowly but in an orderly manner. The strangest thing was that the shadows of all these people did not follow the laws of physics and fall to the ground along the sunlight, but instead fell at the feet of an individual in the center of the group of people that I had gathered at.

The man was wrapped in a coarse linen robe. Due to the limited clarity of the satellite, Amiya could not see clearly who this person was. The moment she could see the man clearly, a sense of fate suddenly emerged in Amiya's heart.

Dajjal.

She had no idea how she came to this conclusion, but Amiya's heart was telling her that the person photographed by the satellite in the center of the group was the Lord of the Heart-Seeing Royal Court, Dagar, the Heart-Flogging Lord.

If this guy is the Dajjal, then these people around him...

"All of these people are controlled by the Whiplash's mind magic."

Compared to the less experienced Amiya, Kal'tsit could see the current situation of these people at a glance.

In the war to protect the country's destiny 200 years ago, the ten royal courts each suffered varying degrees of damage. The Banshee Royal Court suffered the most damage and still lives in the valley today, never leaving the main gate or the secondary gate.

The second was the Stone-Winged Demons who came from afar. It was said that almost all the strong men of the Stone-Winged Demon clan were killed in this war, and it even nearly caused a generational gap in their youth.

The other royal courts also suffered damage, and the damage suffered by the Heart-beating Demon in that war was not small.

In the days that followed, he was basically in a semi-secluded state, but even so, it could not stop the Whiplash from having a rather complicated reputation even among the Sakz.

But it was precisely for this reason that you were the first person to truly see what the victim's state was like after the Whiplash spell was cast. Coincidentally, Kel'tsit knew.

Kal'tsit's rich experience allows her to recognize most things on this land at a glance, and the mental spell belonging to the Whiplash is among them.

"And this spell is even more sinister than the usual mind spells of the Whiplash."

Fang Zhou also saw the status of the people in the picture at a glance. After all, he had a sheep talisman to play with, so he was quite familiar with these things.

But he could see that Dagar's mental magic was not only different from his own, but also different from that of other mind-twisting demons.

After all, other Chasing Souls would not extract the souls of others from their own bodies and enslave them in the form of shadows, thereby controlling those whose souls have been extracted.

After Fang Zhou finished telling this story, everyone else arrived.

"Extracting souls and then enslaving people by controlling their souls? Sounds like a thankless task."

"However, if you control someone this way, as long as their soul remains in the caster's control, they will never escape the caster's grasp. However, if their soul is extracted, they will become a zombie-like state. The cost-effectiveness of this spell will probably be halved."

The shapeshifter and Fremont who came in first criticized Dagar's spell without any hesitation, and finally brought the people behind them to approach Ark and Amiya and the others.

"But now it has been confirmed that the guy is indeed Dajjar?"

After all, the images taken by the satellite are still a bit blurry. Although it can be determined through means that it should be the Chastiser, it is still unknown whether it is Dajjal.

"hateful."

Amiya looked at the screen on the tablet and couldn't help but pound the table beside her. Looking at those people with ashen faces who had turned into zombies because their souls were extracted, the anger in Amiya's heart was surging and erupting.

"It seems that guy really pissed off the little rabbit."

"This is not a good thing. Little devil, suppress the anger in your heart. Even if you really want to punish him, you have to defeat him first. Anger will blind you and even lead to failure."

Frémont stroked his goatee and looked at Dagar, who was leading the army of zombies on the tablet, with a fierce look in his eyes.

"If all else fails, don't you have that massive war machine called Galatron? How about just firing a cannon at this thing?"

Chapter 401 A Bad Premonition

"How about just give this guy a blast?"

I have to say, this suggestion is very tempting, at least for shapeshifters.

Although they had only been on the ship for a day, Fremont and the Transformer had already used their own methods to get a clear understanding of the basic information about the ship, including the ultimate war machine, Galatron, which was far ahead of its time.

Although the operators on Rhodes Island all said that Galatron was a peace-maintaining machine, Shapeshifter and Fremont just listened to such words. After learning about the powerful combat power Galatron showed in Ursus, neither of them would regard this silver-white holy dragon as a peace-maintaining machine.

You maintain peace with a machine that can destroy a military superpower's entire fleet of high-speed warships with a single shot? Or is your peacekeeping machine equipped with such powerful firepower?

Don't say that if you are not strong enough, you can't maintain peace. The ancient wisdom of Dayan is: "If you have a weapon in your heart, you will naturally have the desire to kill." It is conceivable that if such a powerful war machine is used in a war, then it is conceivable that other countries on this land will have no way to stop Kazdel's footsteps and can only fall into silent death in the red light.

And now, knowing that there is only this group of people on the opposite side and that they are controlled by Dagar's mental magic, there is no doubt that even if they meet, they will definitely be the current enemy of Rhodes Island. So since they are enemies, there is no need for any mercy or hesitation, just kill them directly.

But it was obvious that neither Amiya nor Ark would agree with Flemont and the Shapeshifter's point of view.

"Absolutely not!"

Amiya's attitude was very firm, and she looked at Frémont with a determined gaze.

"Those ordinary people controlled by the Whiplash are innocent. I cannot just ignore their lives."

"That group only numbered a little over 200 people. Little Devil, the moment you embark on the path of kingship, you must understand one thing: sacrifice is inevitable.

Furthermore, those guys have been controlled by the Whiplash. From this perspective, they are now your enemies. If you show mercy to your enemies and give up the most direct means of defeating them, you may have already fallen into the Whiplash's trap."

We already know that the target of the Chaser is Amiya, so Fremont naturally has reason to suspect that the other party has investigated Amiya's character and behavior. Now he uses his own ability to control many innocent people to form a group, because he knows that with Amiya's character, it is absolutely impossible for her to attack innocent people.

This method is used to limit the counterattack strength of Amiya and Rhodes Island. The method is simple, but it does not prevent it from being very useful.

"Those are two different things. Perhaps the person controlling so many innocent people does harbor that mentality, but that's no reason for us to ignore those innocent people. I know sacrifice is inevitable. Even the once gentle Sister Theresa knew it was inevitable. But we insist on minimizing the sacrifice. This is completely thoughtless, directly firing at innocent people just to eliminate the enemy... I'm sorry, I can't accept it."

Frémont had expected Amiya's resolute attitude. It would be strange if such a kind-hearted child did not object to his plan.

"Then why don't you agree?"

Frémont fell silent, and the Shapeshifter took over and looked at the Ark.

If you say that Ark also cares about the lives of innocent people, then the Shapeshifter will not believe it at all.

Although he had learned too much from Amiya and had seen the Doctor's glorious image through his perspective, during the Tower of Babel period, he knew how this man before his eyes acted as a cold life calculator, accurately measuring the outcome of every dispute and filling in the battlefield with human lives as numbers. The Shapeshifter didn't believe that such a man would give up a single blow to destroy the enemy just for the lives of a mere 200 people.

"Because Galatron's artillery fire is unable to destroy the Whiplash."

Ark made a shocking statement, Galatron's attack could easily destroy an entire army of Ursus, but it had no way to destroy a small Chaser. In any case, this sounded like a huge joke.

But after a brief thought, everyone understood what Ark meant by being indestructible.

"We must assume that the opponent has become an alien, the Heartbeater. Since it is an alien, simply destroying it physically will not be enough to truly kill it."

Hearing this, Amiya nodded immediately. The reason why Fremont and others wanted to use Galatron to directly destroy the Whiplash was because Galatron could really destroy the Whiplash. As long as Galatron's attack had no effect on the alien Whiplash, wouldn't it allow them to temporarily give up that terrible idea?

At least buy a little more time, at least think about how to rescue those more than 200 innocent people.

"How far is it from Rhodes Island?"
