Ark of the Immortal

Maria searched for a long time in the bar, and even opened the curtain of the singing stage, shouting while searching.

Another figure also slowly walked into the bar, and she looked a little expectant.

But unlike Maria, similar eyes first swept across the entire bar, and then fell on Martin.

Good morning, Mr. Martin.

Hey, it's Margaret, good morning!

Martin said hello to Margaret, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

He put down the wine glass he was wiping, cleared his throat, and then spoke loudly.

Okay, okay, some guy, please stop looking around. Your teacher didn't come, he just asked someone to bring something over.

Martin knocked on the table, raised his chin and gestured to a black package on the bar.

promise.

There was visible disappointment on Maria's face.

However, when she heard someone delivering something, she still came to the bar and picked up the thing wrapped in black cloth in her hands.

Someone is bringing something? Who is it?

Maria didn't know who it was for yet, so she suppressed her curiosity and asked.

Ender is the blacksmith who helps Mr. Battle Knight make equipment.

Martin folded the handkerchief twice and placed it neatly in the drawer.

But your teacher did come to Casimir. I heard from him that it was two guys who used to be agents for the War Knight who helped the War Knight contact him.

Mr. Battle Knight, go to Blacksmith Ander and ask him to transfer something to you.

When that guy Ender talked about it, although he was a little reluctant to let it go, there was no less smile in his eyes.

Martin said his guess casually.

Maybe it's some big treasure.

When Maria heard that it was for her, she immediately opened the cloth.

Before Margaret had time to walk to the bar, she heard Maria's high-pitched scream, which frightened her and made her walk to Maria's side in two steps.

But when Margaret saw the thing in Maria's hand, she was stunned for a moment.

Martin turned his head and glanced curiously.

Is this... a shield?

Maria turned the shield over. Many scratches on the shield had not been repaired, but it could be seen that it was very well maintained.

But soon, everyone realized what it was.

Hey, this thing can't be...

Martin frowned slightly, his tone trembling a little.

Margaret nodded hesitantly.

It should be, it can't be wrong.

This shield has appeared in countless recorded images.

In the hands of the invincible titled knight, it not only became a barrier for the sword and shield knights, but also became a giant hammer.

The unstoppable shield attack with one hand left the myth that the warrior knight was never defeated.

The Immortal must have known that the Special Tournament was about to start, and he also thought that Maria could participate in this Special Tournament, so he sent someone a gift.

Seeing that the thing Ender sent was actually this shield, Maria immediately stuffed the shield into the black cloth and hugged it tightly in her arms.

Hehe...a gift from the teacher, hehe——

The girl's eyes turned into crescent moons.

Margaret had a slight smile on her face, and she was also happy to see Maria so happy.

Margaret coughed lightly and said.

Maria, what did you say your goal was this time?

Maria said firmly without looking back.

I want to get first place. Just like the teacher, I will get my own one-word title when I participate for the first time.

Then do you have the confidence to defeat me?

As soon as these words came out, Maria and Martin were stunned.

Margaret didn't mention the Major once when she came back this time.

According to her, her place of work only granted her a vacation, so it was rare for her to come back to see Maria.

Everyone knows that Margaret has been officially expelled from Casimir, but today when the infected knight is allowed to participate, Margaret's identity is no longer a problem.

Margaret's smile did not change.

I will be waiting for you on your way to the championship.

As a disciple of the Battle Knight, do you have the confidence to defeat me?

The joy on Maria's face gradually subsided.

She looked at her sister.

That was one of the two figures she longed for.

Now, standing in front of him, Margaret looked at Maria encouragingly.

She didn't want Maria to follow her own path, which was hard and easy.

But Maria's teacher gave her this capital.

Casimir, who has experienced the War Knight, is now facing the impact of drastic changes.

Margaret's return this time is undoubtedly to challenge a giant. She has partners who have the same goal as her, but Maria is not included in the plan.

Margaret also wanted to see if her sister had the ability and confidence.

Take over Linguang's ideal from her hands.

I will try my best to defeat my sister.

Maria said firmly.

Margaret nodded and said suddenly.

The family motto is——

The sisters looked at each other and smiled.

Don't be afraid of the darkness!

...

It was still a busy day on Rhode Island.

After the Victoria Incident, Rhode Island's influence grew.

After successfully dealing with the Puppet King Kazdel, Rhode Island also ushered in a rare period of peace.

The shadow of the abyss was temporarily away from them, and even Kelsey had granted most of the operators several weeks of leave.

The Doctor even openly took a large number of operators who were willing to go with him to go on vacation to the beach in Colombia after dealing with the subsequent incident in Victoria.

Although when the doctor came back, he stood guard at Kelsey's door for two days. But in the end Kelsey smashed a notebook onto the doctor's head, and the two returned to the conference room together.

Amiya's body has been in a resting state since that battle.

After absorbing too much abyssal pollution, Amiya did not mutate into an abyssal family, thanks to her extraordinary characteristics as a [Chimera].

Fortunately, Melanza asked Amiya to ask Kelsey for a full set of rings before taking her away.

When Amiya and Skadi were kicked out of the dark side, Skadi was able to put the ring on Amiya in time.

But even so, Amiya's physical condition is not very good.

It is almost the consensus of all operators that Amiya must go to bed before ten o'clock in the evening.

Even if Amiya wanted to do more, she would be pushed into her room.

But after this battle, her power seemed to have a breakthrough, and the future speaker of Rhode Island also benefited a lot from this war.

The undead left the island some time after the war ended and disappeared without a trace.

For a whole year, not a single operator has seen Mr. Undead on the ship again.

As for the operators.

Some ordinary operators belonging to Rhode Island stayed in Victoria forever, and several of the elite operators who were recalled from other countries also died at the hands of the abyssalized Sergeant Kazdaele.

But most of Rhode Island's pillars remained, and still received thanks from Victoria after the battle.

More than nine digits of Dragon Gate coins were deposited into Rhode Island's account. As long as a little saving is enough to cover Rhode Island's expenses for several years...it's strange.

The cost of Rhode Island is always a mystery. Even the doctor doesn't know when these Longmen coins will disappear.

However, at least in the past two years, the Rhode Island offices in various places will not be short of funds.

Miss Skyfire chose to stay in Victoria some time after the war ended to help the people in her hometown rebuild.

From time to time she receives small, anonymous gifts from all over the world.

Froststar's path was completely clear after the war.

After all members of the Infected Shield were repairing in Rhode Island for a period of time, they were once again dispersed throughout Terra.

This time, they must gather all the forces they can to fight for the infected.

Several deep-sea hunters also embarked on their own paths after the war.

Laurentina is studying at a fashion design school in Colombia, although she doesn't know if she'll make it.

Gladia stayed on Rhode Island, and under the doctor's advice, she tried to travel around the world through the operator's mission, measuring the entire Terra with her own eyes, and finding her own meaning.

As for Skadi.

She returned to her old profession.

Using his identity as a bounty hunter, Skadi searched for traces of the remaining abyss forces across Terra, and occasionally returned to Rhode Island to see Melanza.

In this regard, it is the same as Rhode Island.

After the war, Onstein completely became a member of the old-timers' organization on Rhode Island.

From time to time, I would go to various young people’s gatherings, and then I would like to discuss archery skills with the rangers in the afternoon with a cup of tea and squinted eyes.

I just got on the bus to Casimir two days ago and said I was going to watch this major tournament live.

Ceob is the same as ever.

He ate and drank, and even became familiar with the doctor. He often went to the doctor's office to ask for snacks.

Even Kelsey was helpless against this heartless dog. After all, Kyobe didn't have any bad intentions, so he had no choice but to keep some biscuits with him at all times, just like the doctor.

At least when she met Kiobe, the act of feeding allowed Kelsey to find some solace in her busy work.

Melanza became a regular operator after this battle, and passed the elite operator assessment not long after.

The core group of Rhode Islanders has grown by one more.

Facing the inquiries from the doctor and Kelsey, Melanza thought for a moment and finalized her own operator codename.

Bonfire.

The doctor sighed a little, and took a sip of coffee under Melanza's incomprehensible eyes.

On the contrary, Kelsey's attitude towards Melanza was much gentler than others, and even her questions were relatively soft-spoken.

Melantha breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the office.

I was still worried about whether I could pass the assessment. When the results actually came out, Melanza had the illusion that this should be the case.

Katie, who was waiting for the results with Melanza outside, looked at Melanza nervously.

how?
