Chapter 54: The First Misalignment of the Gears

"What's the difference, they're not people anyway." Kai'Sa said as a matter of course.

RBS did not respond.

"Forget it." Kai'Sa turned to her lost heavy sword, picked it up, and turned to look at RBS again, "If you're determined to kill me, come on." However, I will never let you kill so easily. After all, I've lived for more than 100 years, and I don't want to die like that. ”

The air became heavy in this instant.

Kai'Sa didn't take the initiative to attack, but the RBS, who were ordered to crusade against Kai'Sa, didn't either.

"What's wrong?" Kai'Sa asked, "Don't you think it's a shame to kill this strange species of mine?" ”

"I just want to know what kind of position you have, whether it's a human or a Leviathan." RBS said.

"What if you know?" Kai'Sa asked.

"Leviathan is a creature that is very aggressive towards all living beings and is not sapient." RBS said, "And you, while undoubtedly a Leviathan, have little desire to attack. ”

"So what?" Kai'Sa asked, "What do you mean by that?" ”

RBS unconsciously covered his chest with his mechanical left hand: "I want to listen to Shangguan Jing's advice once and follow my heart once. ”

"And what's inside you?" Kai'Sa asked.

"I think it's more valuable to keep you than to kill you." RBS said, "So, I'm going to figure out where you stand. ”

"Where do I stand?" Kai'Sa unconsciously lowered her head, "If the human camp still welcomes me, then I will definitely still be on the side of the humans." ”

"Why do you say that?" RBS asked.

Kai'Sa was silent for a moment, then invited RBS, "Follow me." ”

Then she left the "playground".

Naturally, RBS followed.

In this way, Kai'Sa walked with RBS for a long time, they walked out of the playground, out of the city, and even out of the confines of the C-43 area, about to enter the C-42 area.

Eventually, they came to a cave at the junction of two regions.

"Would you like to go in here and have a look?" Kai'Sa asked.

RBS did not answer.

Kaisha, who understood what RBS was thinking, explained, "This is where I used to live and where I stood out. ”

——

On Harbor, the rest of the 0-1 test team has also finished their afternoon tea.

Just as the four of them were about to leave, Shangguan Jing was stopped by Xu Linfeng.

"What's wrong?" Shangguan Jing asked.

"There's something I'd like to talk to you about individually." Xu Linfeng said.

Li Moxin, who was on the side, asked a little puzzled: "No, what is it that I and my eldest sister ......?"

Suddenly, Zhao Zihan hurriedly stepped forward and covered Li Moxin's mouth: "It's okay Captain, you guys talk first, and the two of us will go first." ”

After speaking, he immediately pulled Li Moxin out of the garden.

"Alright, let's talk." Shangguan Jing asked, "What's the matter, you have to avoid them?" ”

"Whew." Xu Linfeng let out a long sigh of relief and said, "Shangguan, I hope what I say next may make you a little unacceptable, but I still have to tell you." ”

"What, why are you so serious?" Shangguan Jing said.

"It's about RBS." Xu Linfeng said.

Shangguan Jing didn't say anything more.

Xu Linfeng also sat on the grass and began to say, "Do you really think he is trustworthy now?"

Although he had always followed orders absolutely, he did not seem to be threatening at all. But have you ever wondered what would happen to him if one day he received an order from his superiors against us?

You must know that with his strength, if such a thing really happens, there is no way for us to escape. ”

"No, so far, the seniors haven't done anything too much. Except for the one that got out of hand. Shangguan Jing said.

"Do you remember that SS-class Leviathan we first met?" Xu Linfeng asked.

"Remember, what's wrong?" Shangguan Jing asked.

"That time it was the Leviathan that he received the order to get on the plane and released the inducer." Xu Linfeng said suddenly.

"What? How do you know? Shangguan Jing asked.

"Where did I ask after that?" Xu Linfeng said truthfully, "So since then, I haven't trusted him very much." Plus now that he has suddenly revealed his identity, don't you think all this is too inconsistent? ”

"Oops, you're thinking too much." Shangguan Jing sat next to him with a smile, "Senior Bai Qi is not as extreme as you think, at least now I can feel that he is slowly changing."

I believe that if there were similar situations again, he would definitely make his own choice. ”

"You're still as optimistic as ever." Xu Linfeng said helplessly.

"It's not optimism, it's trust." Shangguan Jing said, "I was like you before, but since I was trapped on Earth with him last time, I really got to know him, and I realized that he was just a person who lost things.

It's like I lost my parents, except that what he lost was worse than that. ”

The atmosphere began to get delicate.

"Since you've said so, then I can't persuade you anymore." Xu Linfeng said.

"So you're going to trust your seniors?" Shangguan Jing asked.

"No, I still can't convince myself." Xu Linfeng stood up, "The days ahead are still long, let's take one step at a time." ”

"I can't help it." Shangguan Jing also stood up, "Let's go, it's time to go back." ”

"Well, let's go." Xu Linfeng also stood up.

Then, the two of them slowly left the garden together.

——

At about 7 p.m. East 8 Earth time, RBS finally returned home and returned to Harbor.

But when he came back, he only brought a report that "Leviathan was not found".

Investigation into the wear and tear of the weapon revealed that he had not indeed fought any living beings.

Therefore, it was concluded that the target Leviathan had left the area, and the reconstruction of C-43 Island could begin.

And Bai Qi, who had just come back, knew very well in his mind what a big lie he had told. It stands to reason that at this point he should be upset by the fact that he had disobeyed orders for the first time and lied for the first time.

But he didn't, or rather, he was more "worried" at this time.

It's not that I'm worried that my lies will be exposed, but that I'm worried that my series of behaviors will affect my strength.

Comparing the all-power operation of the Ark, it depends on the mechanical assimilation of consciousness, so the generation of self-thinking is also likely to lead to a significant decline in combat strength.

This day was the most "comfortable" and "uncomfortable" day for him.

Suddenly, the white communicator began to vibrate.

Bai Qi picked up the communicator and turned it on, it was a text message from Shangguan Jing.

"Senior, I heard that you are back, do you want to have dinner together?

Shangguan Jing. ”

Bai Qi also responded simply: "Understood." ”

Then he got up and left his dormitory step by step.

——

The next day, Shangguan Jing proposed that everyone have a group training.

Naturally, there is no problem, not to mention that now that the identity of RBS is clear, everyone's fear of training has been reduced a lot.

But what is different today is that Bai Qi also appeared in the preparation room.

The four people who had just arrived, except for Shangguan Jing, were already stunned in front of the preparation room.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know the way, so I came late." Bai Qi explained.

"Well, we're not actually surprised by that." Li Moxin said.

"Although I used to be curious about where Bai Qi's predecessor would be every time he connected to Ark, I didn't expect that my predecessor would ...... with us one day," Zhao Zihan also said a little incredulously.

"Oh, there's nothing surprising, I discussed it with my seniors last night." Shangguan Jing was the first to walk to his combat seat and sit down, that is, he sat on the combat seat next to Bai Qi.

"What?" Zhao Zihan and Li Moxin let out a cry of surprise together.

"You're really getting more and more acquainted now." Shangguan Jing sighed helplessly.

"No, seriously, did the captain really propose it?" Li Moxin asked.

"That's right." Shangguan Jing explained: "Because the seniors are one of us, it always feels a little strange that they are not together every time they connect. That's why I suggested that my seniors come to the preparation room during training today, and by the way, I can enhance my relationship. ”

"Captain, why didn't you tell me in advance last night?" Zhao Zihan asked.

"I'm sorry, but I think you'll be pretty calm when something like this happens. That's why I didn't tell you in advance. Shangguan Jing said with a look of apology.

"Well, I don't think there's anything too surprising about this, but it's too sudden!" Zhao Zihan said.

"It's not sudden, it's more reasonable." Xu Linfeng on the side actually spoke.

"Lin Feng, why do you say that?" Li Moxin asked puzzled.

"He's a member of our team, is there any problem with being in the same prep room for connection?" Xu Linfeng walked to his battle seat and said as a matter of course.

"But does that really enhance the relationship?" Li Moxin asked a little stunned.

At this time, Zhao Zihan on the side elbowed Li Moxin.

"What?" Li Moxin asked.

"You don't look at who the seniors sit with." Zhao Zihan whispered in Li Moxin's ear.

Li Moxin looked at Bai Qi and Shangguan Jing beside him, and suddenly realized.

"What are they talking about?" Bai Qi asked.

"I don't know, but it's certainly not a good thing." Shangguan Jing replied, and then arranged, "Senior, I will ask you to train the two of them a little more ruthlessly in a while." ”

"Why!" The two of them who heard this were not very happy for a moment.

"Reflect on yourself." After speaking, Shangguan Jing put on the connecting helmet and directly connected to the BIA.
