Chapter 146 Lilith is still alive

"Do you think Professor Xie would agree to let me stay in the weapons team? But I don't think I can be of much help."

Qi Hanxing scratched his head and looked at Si Jue beside him with some depression. The other party looked up at him and started to bandage his arm again.

"Hasn't the wound on your hand healed long ago? Why do you still need to bandage it?"

Si Jue's hand paused, and the white cloth continued to wrap around.

"It still hurts a bit. I thought I'd put a bandage on it to remind myself not to use this hand for now. By the way, what's going on between you and...R?"

At this point, Qi Hanxing blurted out everything as if she had finally found a confidant, including how she accidentally bumped into R when she was in a bad mood and wanted to help her but ended up doing something wrong with her good intentions, causing her to sprain her ankle.

"Fortunately, Professor Xie gave her medicine, otherwise I would not be able to fix it properly with my clumsy hands."

"You mean, the teacher personally applied medicine and bandaged her?"

Si Jue frowned and raised his head suddenly, while Qi Hanxing was a little confused, but still answered honestly,

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

"No, nothing. Don't you want to find a teacher? I'll go with you."

He stood up immediately and pushed Qi Hanxing out of the door.

"Wait, I just came back from Professor Xie. I can't just talk about it in my head..."

…

"Your Highness, you look a little uneasy. Has something happened?"

Colin asked cautiously,

Louis suddenly came back to his senses, and the expression on his face changed from confusion to calmness and indifference. He shook his head.

"It's okay, I just didn't sleep well last night, so I'm a little distracted."

"Your Highness, you really need to find a guide. You refused the last physical examination because of the long journey. The ministers in the parliament are very worried. If this continues, they will suspect that you have..."

Colin didn't dare to say that word out loud. His eyes were filled with worry for His Royal Highness Louis. After all, only those who felt that they had real health problems would be reluctant to seek medical treatment.

Since His Highness came of age, he has never allowed a guide to approach him for counseling. I don't know to what extent the accumulated spiritual pollution has reached.

But Louis was unwilling to do something, and no one could force the Queen to do anything. Colin could only try to persuade him.

"Some people might just wish I had a mental problem. So what if they suspect me? They have no evidence. Let Arnold handle the rest. Hasn't he always done a good job? Tell him that in six months at most, I'll be back and be my prince."

"Your Highness!"

Colin looked at Louis excitedly. This was the first time His Highness had given a clear promise. This meant that in just six months at most, His Highness the Prince of the Empire would be back in a safe place, and he wouldn't have to worry so much anymore.

"That guide thing..."

"Just leave it to R. She's safer than most guides. Okay, no more words, Colin. You really are like a nagging old man."

The middle-aged guard blinked his eyes, smiled, and said nothing. It had been a long time since he had seen His Highness so joking and joking.

He didn't know what happened to make His Highness' mood so good, but he sincerely hoped that this mood could last a little longer.

"Okay, I'll make the arrangements, Your Highness. Don't worry. Then, should I switch her room with Alice's and move it to a place closer to you?"

Before, Colin had only heard from the people in the military academy that Alice had great talent, so he arranged for Alice to be close to him out of selfish motives.

But if Your Highness has a guide that suits your taste more, even if he is a bionic man, it doesn’t matter, as long as Your Highness is happy.

Arrange it to be by my side? Louis was distracted and refused flatly.

"No need. I'll go find her if anything happens. We can't let too many people know about this, or it'll be easily exploited by those with ulterior motives."

If we were too close, it would be inconvenient to sneak out, Louis thought.

Anyway, if I go to find R under the pretext of treating the spirit body, Colin won't be too suspicious, and it's also very close to the "Cube".

"Am I careless, or is it that His Highness is thoughtful?"

Colin hung his head in shame.

…

Empire, Arnold's residence, Claire kneels beneath the high chair,

"Sir, we still haven't found any trace of Lilith. Perhaps she really died in that explosion."

It would be a pity if such a beautiful and cool girl died, Claire thought quietly.

Arnold sat on the chair with a somewhat uneasy look on his face. He turned the ring on his finger with a sinister look in his eyes.

"No, she's not dead yet. You've all been deceived by her. The signal from the locator in the bomb hasn't disappeared, it's just been blocked."

He hadn't originally noticed that Lilith had faked her death. After all, who would have thought that she could survive an explosion at such a close distance?

It was only when I accidentally remembered that there was a locator hidden in the bomb that I started to think of another possibility.

He clicked on the light screen, and a huge blank map appeared in front of the two of them.

"This is the Imperial coordinate point, but look at this."

Another light screen appeared at the right moment, occupying twice the size. Amidst the densely packed black, green, and red interlaced data lines, the white-gold dots of light were particularly prominent.

"But her approximate location was found in the Federation's coordinates."

Claire's pupils dilated slightly as she stared at the coordinate point in front of her in disbelief.

"This is……"

"The map of the contaminated area is unfortunately an unupdated version. Ever since someone broke into the contaminated area ten years ago, causing a huge disturbance at the source of the pollution, the Federation was forced to withdraw from the contaminated area and hand over such an important place to the Empire."

"Black is the normal area, green is the safe area, and red is the dangerous area. Of course, I don't know if the Far Marching Army divides it this way."

"There's a Federation experimental base deep within the contaminated area. I've spent a lot of manpower and resources just to find the perfect combination of sentinels and guides. What a pity."

It sounds like they just strategically abandoned a location, but few people know that most of the Federation's S-class sentinels were almost driven crazy by the pollution turmoil. If it weren't for this, the establishment of the Far March Army would not have been so smooth.

All the data and information, including the experiment on the separation and fusion of the Sentinel Guide's spirit, the key to Arnold's godhood, were burned at that moment.

"That was originally our territory, but it doesn't matter. What was taken away will eventually be returned."

"You mean?"

Claire was thoughtful and asked for confirmation.

Arnold smiled, threw him a communicator, and said condescendingly,

"Contact Will and ask him if he's been undercover for so many years that he's forgotten his federal identity."
