Rosalin behind her slapped herself in the face. The crisp sound attracted everyone's attention. She immediately waved her hand to indicate that nothing was wrong. However, Natalia's face turned a little red.
"...From now on, this city will become Ursus's Special Zone for Infected. It will be a legitimate city of Ursus, located on the border between Ursus and Dayan, opposite Longmen. You can naturally come back, but by then, the city will be filled with Infected. Are you sure you want to come back?"
It’s not that Ark doesn’t want them to come back, but although the probability of airborne mineral sickness is extremely low, it is not zero.
Just like the probability of your cat killing you is small, but definitely not zero.
"Well, I've participated in some rescue activities for infected people at the Azazel Clinic before, and I told Mr. Fang Zhou about it. I used to be the eldest daughter of an aristocracy. Because I was so high up and had contact with adult society, I always thought I was very mature. But it wasn't until I participated in the rescue activities at the Azazel Clinic that I realized that I was actually very naive and there were many things I didn't understand.
After learning about the plight of the infected, I wanted to come back and do something for them, even if it was just something small within my ability, since I was once one of those who exploited them.
You are not my eldest daughter, what official language are you talking about at this time?
"Of course, I actually have another idea, which is, can I join you?"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere on the field changed immediately.
Both Fang Ark and Witt looked at Natalia with frowns.
"You, want to join the Reunion Movement?"
Chapter 18 If Rhodes Island had a hundred Galatrons
"You want to join the Reunion Movement?"
Witt, who was listening to the conversation, frowned, pulled Fang Zhou's arm, walked to the side, and spoke in a low voice with a strange expression.
"You, Mr. Ark, I mean, you just locked them up for a day and didn't do anything else, right? For example, did you teach them anything?"
"Mr. Speaker, you can't wrongly accuse a good person. Although I attacked nobles, stole cities, and kidnapped students, I am a good person. We in the Reunion Movement have always had a policy of treating prisoners well."
Fang Zhou said that this was definitely not their fault, and God had mercy on them, they didn't treat those children unfairly at all.
Although it was only one day, just like what was said in the previous chapter, they ate and drank plenty and could do whatever they wanted. As long as they didn't fight, insult each other personally, provoke conflicts, or leave the school, the guards of the Integration Movement would not care about them.
Just like last night, Sonya wanted to pick up an axe and chop the ghost ninja directly because she wanted to see Fang Zhou. Fang Zhou rushed over as quickly as possible after receiving the notification from the ghost ninja. Otherwise, he would not have gone over under other circumstances. He might even have let the students be locked up there ignorantly without doing anything about it. Anyway, they would be released after a few days, so why bother about it.
"But this is what you all want to see, isn't it? Attitudes towards the infected can be improved starting with the next generation. Although the number is too small right now, a single spark can start a prairie fire. This is already a good start, isn't it?"
Speaker Witte shook his head.
"The point is, this child is acting so strangely. Are you sure you haven't brainwashed her?"
The electronic watch on Ark's helmet suddenly turned into confusion.
"Um, Mr. Speaker, may I ask, are you married?"
"Ah? I have a wife, a beautiful Ursus lady, what's wrong?"
"I suppose it was your wife who pursued you."
"That's right. Although I, Islam Witt, am not from a wealthy family, I was once a man of both talent and beauty, one of the most handsome men in Saint Jun Castle... No, why are you asking that?"
Fang Zhou smiled politely.
"No, nothing, just trying to confirm a few things."
Haha, of course Ark didn't brainwash Natalia, unless love-brainedness counts.
Fang Zhou has rich experience after all. If he can't see anything special in this weird scene, then there is no need to choose a king. He can just go back to the back mountain of Toei and serve tea to Tokiwa Sougo for the rest of his life.
However, although Natalia is indeed a beautiful Ursus girl, but... she is still a minor, she is an illegal queen.
Fang Zhou wiped the cold sweat that he couldn't wipe away at all.
Of course, these are actually minor problems. After all, Natalia is already sixteen years old this year. According to Ursus law, this girl will reach adulthood in two years, which is not a long time to wait. After all, the training system also has its own happiness.
But this child is not in Ark's good range. Compared with the intellectual and well-mannered noble lady like Natalia, Fang Ark still prefers the type that is more boyish, or the more dominant like Wangtu, or the type like Kal'tsit who is particularly "interesting" to tease.
In other words, being a strong woman and being cool and expressionless are Ark's character XP, but coincidentally, Natalia now has neither of these two qualities.
So to the fat polar bear today, Ark can only say, you are a good person, we are friends.
But...if Natalia joins Reunion...
No, if she really wanted to develop, it would undoubtedly be best for Natalia to return to her count parents' home. As the count's only daughter, Natalia would never be married off as a victim of political marriage. In the future, she would definitely be the heir of Count Rostov, hmm...
"I'm so sorry Natalia."
"Ugh?"
"Although the Reunion Movement isn't a formal organization, we still have our own principles. We cannot accept underage, non-infected individuals like you as our regular operators..."
"Which pharmaceutical company do you work for? It should be fine, even as an intern..."
Ah ah ah ah ah!
Anna, who was standing behind Natalia, let out a sharp groundhog cry in her heart.
Miss Natalia, what are you doing? ! !
Although I don't know what's going on with that so-called pharmaceutical company, isn't it like "I just want to stay by your side" written on your face by the way you express it so eagerly?
It’s not that you can’t hit the ball straight, but you have to hit it well! Otherwise, you’ll become a clown!
Fang Zhou stopped talking.
Witt next to him rolled his eyes.
Pharmaceutical company?
A pharmaceutical company related to this gentleman? Considering his behavior, it's very likely a pharmaceutical company related to the infected person?
Azazel Clinic? No, although it's called a clinic, it can't be called a company. So...
Witt quickly filtered the information about the medical company in his mind and almost quickly locked it on a name.
Although not well-known, he recently resolved a large-scale Originium infection disaster in Syracuse and earned the family's recognition. According to intelligence reports from intelligence points along the way, he is indeed heading towards Ursus. He indeed boarded the hangar on Plot 23 yesterday and is currently following the city group to seek refuge in the heart of Ursus...
It was just a small company, but the other identity of a small company headquarters was that all countries would pay attention to it.
The palace of the former monarch of Kazdel, and the entity of Kazdel's government-in-exile.
It turns out that the Reunion Movement is also connected to this company. Then... could the power that destroyed the entire Fourth Army be the power of the so-called "Demon King"?
It seems that I have more things to report to His Majesty after I return.
No matter what Witt was thinking at the moment, Fang Zhou was feeling extremely uncomfortable.
Originally, he wanted to save the Rostov family at that time. Because he liked the members of the Bear Group at that time, he gave face to Natalia and Sonya to shoot the sublimator, so he used the identity of a management employee of a pharmaceutical company. After all, his information in Rhodes Island is still the tactical commander, which is indeed on the employee list, so it can't be considered a lie.
Furthermore, he wasn't wearing a helmet at the time, so he went in his true form. He wasn't afraid of being found out about his connection to the Reunion Movement in the short term, but now...
Fang Zhou glanced at Witt obscurely.
He knew the peculiarity of Rhodes Island. Although it was only a small company, it still had its own offices in the major cities of eleven of the nineteen major countries on the Terra continent. This "small" company, coupled with the Kazdel Civil War that had just ended a year ago, the drama of replacing the prince with a cat was clearly seen even by Tracy, let alone the politicians of other countries.
Therefore, the fact that Rhodes Island = Kazdel's government-in-exile is almost in the spotlight among all political entities.
It's just that Rhodes Island hasn't made any extreme moves now, and the major powers don't have the energy to pay attention to it. It's a failed government, so it's better to see what the military committee that has taken over Londinium is doing.
So, the reason why Rhodes Island has not yet officially entered the eyes of major powers as a political entity is precisely because it has not taken any extreme actions at present. This is also Kal'tsit's strategy.
However, if Rhodes Island is suddenly exposed to have a relationship with an armed protest organization of the infected, and a deep relationship, then the situation will be different, even if this armed protest organization of the infected has now transformed into a city defense force of a country's viscount.
This was also the reason why Ark did not let Amiya and the others appear in front of Witt, but now it was different. Witt had been working in the political arena for many years and was already a smart man among the smart men. Maybe it was just a name like a pharmaceutical company, but even if he couldn't think of it now, after returning, as long as he followed his intelligence network, he would immediately know that this so-called pharmaceutical company was Rhodes Island.
"Ugh."
Fang Zhou sighed.
Rhodes Island will eventually step onto the stage as a political entity. This is inevitable when Amiya becomes king, but the current Rhodes Island is too fragile. It has no say in the international arena, and its armed forces are not strong. Simply put... it is too weak and powerless.
So Ark's original plan was to wait for Rhodes Island to grow for a while. As long as he returned, he would first turn Rhodes Island's deficit-ridden finances into profits. At least when they had enough money, they could consider political matters. But now...
After blurting out these words, Natalia obviously realized instantly that she had said the wrong thing, and annoyance and regret suddenly filled the girl's heart.
"I'm sorry, Natalia. Our company is legitimate. Even if we have a precedent of hiring underage operators, it's because they are infected. We only accept them with the premise of providing treatment. After all, we are not a shady company."
Forget it, let's just do this. Feeling a little tired inside, Fang Zhou came up with a terrible idea. Once this idea appeared, it took root in Fang Zhou's mind uncontrollably.
If all else fails, he could go back and give all the principles and design drawings of Galatron to Kal'thir, and let her learn the general idea first through the artificial intelligence deep learning device, and then gradually master it. He could then transform Rhodes Island's production line, so that Rhodes Island could first have the ability to independently produce Galatron.
As for production, we will produce 100 units first.

Chapter 19 W Wants to See the Crown
After Fang Zhou finished saying this, Natalia's face showed disappointment, which made Fang Zhou touch his chin and then speak again.
"But I'd consider the internship system you mentioned. How about this: for minors like you who aren't infected and don't need supervised treatment and are interested in joining the company, if you can secure a guardian with civil capacity, meaning your parents, and sign an internship agreement with our company, we can accept you as an intern for six months. After six months, if you still have the intention to join and your guardian agrees, you can undergo a formal employee assessment. If you pass, you'll be promoted to a full-time employee."
Natalia's face lit up again, but considering her parents' attitude...
That glory turned into hesitation and worry.
While Natalia was still thinking about these things, Fang Zhou turned his attention to Sonya.
"No need. What you said about her just now is equivalent to answering me."
Sonya is also straightforward. Her purpose is the same as Natalia's, but unlike Natalia who is motivated by a little girl's love story, Sonya's reason is very simple.
She didn't like studying, only hanging out in clubs and getting into fights. At this rate, not only would she have trouble getting into university, but even getting from Peterheim Middle School to Peterheim High School would be a problem. Since her academic career wasn't working out, she naturally wanted to find a way out.
Then Ark is a good fit for her. In her own words:
"Fang Zhou, you're quite good at fighting. I'll just follow you. You're not a bad person anyway."
Fang Zhou and Witt shook their heads after hearing this.
"Then you could just move to another city and continue living there, forming gangs and fighting between societies like before. Isn't that great too?"
Witte:? ? ?
Human words? Shouldn't you be telling the child to turn back from his suffering? Why did you change your tone?
"Then what? Move to another city to continue fooling around? Screw in a factory or venture into the wilderness?"
With the axe in her hand on her shoulder, Sonya rarely talked about the future.
Normally, if her parents talked to her about these issues at home, a quarrel was inevitable.
"I can't imagine what my future life will be like... In that case, I might as well hang out with you. At least it's fun to be around you."
Sonya smiled a smile that was tinged with violence.
"What's more, by following a stronger you, I can meet even stronger ones. Sooner or later, I'll have the chance to swing my axe at those stronger and bigger guys."
Due to Sonya's personality, she usually likes to help the weak and fight against the strong, and she likes to challenge herself by punching people who are stronger than herself. After spending half a month in Azazel, a seed was planted in General Dong's heart, a seed of fighting against a stronger but more abstract strong man.
Witt shuddered.
For some reason, even though he was the Speaker of a country, he felt a sense of fear when he saw Sonia's eyes.
That inexplicable fear puzzled Witt, and it wasn't until much later that he figured it out.
That fear is the fear of facing natural enemies.
It is the inherent fear that rulers feel when facing those who resist the powerful, especially those who hold power and resist the powerful.
"I was surprised that you would even consider the future."
"What? What do you mean? You don't think I'm just a thug who only cares about fighting, do you?"
"..."
"Asshole, say something!"
Sonya's face turned red and she almost hit Fang Zhou's head with the axe in her hand.
"Although I haven't read many books, I have thought about the future. My mother said that people need to be sure of what they want to do and set their goals before they can keep going. If you wander aimlessly, you won't get far."
Although she always quarreled with her parents, Sonya still remembered the words and principles that her parents had taught her.
If there is anyone in this world who will never betray you, it can only be your parents.
Parents always want their children to live well. Even if their ideas are outdated and their experiences are backward, they will always hope that their children will live better and be stronger than themselves.
"...If that's a good idea, then, like Natalia, if you can secure a guardian with civil capacity and bring him... well, let's go to Longmen. Our company will be docked there soon. Even if you can't find our ship, we have our own office there. Just go find them directly. They'll take you to our ship and notify me."
"Ah, that would be great, but what's the name of your company? I have to know the name."
Fang Zhou glanced at Witt beside him, clicked his tongue, and then spoke in a rather self-deprecating tone.
"Rhode Island."
