    Chapter 193 Assistance

    For a long time, Lin Xiang always thought that he had understood the nature of the world.  But what Aphra said gave him an unspoken fear - the closer he got to the truth, the more he felt that he could not distinguish what the so-called truth was, and he could not find a solution to the problem.  Methods.

    There is no doubt that the Skeleton Knights, the United Doctors Association, and even the Holy See should be cabal groups that stand against justice.  If destroying them can achieve the effect of revenge, what will the future of this world look like?  It is not difficult to figure out the truth - all the civilization and technology of the old era are in their hands, and if they kill all the skeleton knights, all doctors and priests, the new generation of mankind will eventually perish due to the emergence of civilizational gaps.

    ??Killing and revengeIn the end, there may no longer be a living human being on the earth.

    Lin Xiang felt unprecedentedly hesitant - he was supposed to be righteous, but while destroying evil, he also had to destroy more innocent people, and even the entire human race.  What should this be?

    Sitting silently on the chair, his mind was filled with countless complicated thoughts. Lin Xiang kept wanting to speak, but every time he opened his lips, he fell silent again in an instant.

    "Claude chose you. He has never missed anyone. It was the same before and it is the same now." Aphra said lightly, seeing all this.

    "choose?"

    Lin Xiang slowly raised his head and asked doubtfully: "I have never understood, what does the so-called "choice" mean? Yes, Claude saved my life, but he never told me anything related to it.  anything."

    "It's very simple. From the moment he saved your life, you have been one of ours." Aphra's voice was very clear.

    "Your people?" Lin Xiang frowned slightly.

    Aphra looked at him seriously, as if she wanted to find something she needed from that handsome face.  After a few minutes, he slowly said: "As a human being with memories of the old times, you should understand that some things cannot be judged just from the surface. The inner structure and organizational form are the real basis for determining material factors."

    "What are you referring to?" Lin Xiang's brows became more and more deeply furrowed.

    "The Skeleton Knights is a very large organization. As early as before the war, its staff strength had exceeded 40,000. Due to various reasons, less than half of these Skeleton Knights who have survived since the war are left. Haha!  Brain thinking is one of the most miraculous creations of nature on earth. Any creature with the ability to think independently has its own ideas. Human beings are no exception. Even parasites cannot generate absolute centripetal force because of interests. What's more, this world  It¡¯s long gone from the dream it once was.¡±

    Lin Xiang stared at Aphra blankly, the expression on his face became very strange.  He had guessed countless times about the real reason why Claude saved his life at the cost of his own life, but he never expected that the reality turned out to be a possibility that he had never imagined and did not dare to imagine.

    "Claude is a skeleton knight. At the same time, he also has another identity - the skeleton redeemer."

    Aphra's calm voice echoed in the office for a long time, and to Lin Xiang's ears, it was as shocking as the thunder in early summer.  "Most people in Crescent City are skeleton redeemers. I am no exception."

    "Redeemer?" Lin Xiang asked thoughtfully.

    "In the old days, the Rockefeller family used money and power to buy tens of thousands of parasites. They accepted virus implants with their vision and good wishes for the future, and took their families into underground shelters before the outbreak of nuclear war.  . As time goes by, their relatives begin to age and die, and family affection, friendship, and love disappear little by little. They become more and more lonely and desperate, and even doubt everything they have done in the first place. They begin to refuse to accept  The order from the top of the Knights is to reconnect with this strange and desolate world in their own way. In their view, this is their own atonement and the only way to save the world and the future."

    Lin Xiang sat there quietly, but his heart was filled with turbulent and violent undercurrents.

    "All redeemers are skeleton knights, but we are essentially different from skeleton knights in the ordinary sense. We no longer belong to Rockefeller, nor are we slaves bound by money and material bodies and minds. We are free and have no  We have a desire for power, and we don¡¯t want to become a so-called ruler. We just want to re-establish our own glorious civilization, wash away the sins of the past, and at the same time, redeem the confused souls.¡±

    Lin Xiang frowned. He didn¡¯t like unknown things, let alone unknown emotions.  Although before that, he had more or lessHe heard part of what Aphra just said, but he still had an uncomfortable feeling of being forcibly tied up and threatened.

    The Redeemer It is obvious that there is a split within the Skeleton Knights.  Lin Xiang was not surprised by this.  From the moment Lieutenant Colonel Hogan faced the overwhelming crowd of living corpses in the old days, he had already vaguely felt that the Knights were not monolithic.  Everyone has their own desires, whether it is money, material, sexual desire, guilt, regret, or anger. Actions can allow emotions to be reflected most directly.  Before the nuclear war, the Rockefeller family used money to buy tens of thousands of parasites to work for them. As time went by, the decadent enjoyment of life could no longer arouse the slightest passion among people.  They began to calm down and think about everything they had done. They wanted to go back to the past, but they could only run in the ruins of the broken and desolate city.  They want to beg God to forgive their sins, but they can't even find a church to express their emotions, let alone whether God really exists in the illusory world.  Emptiness, tears, sobs When all this passes, the desperate thoughts suddenly struggle out of the narrow space, and the law-abiding heart will be replaced by a wild and impulsive body.

    "What is your purpose?"

    Lin Xiang put away his confused thoughts and refocused his attention on Aphra across the desk.

    "We want to change this chaotic world. We need order, we need law, and we need to rebuild the glory of all ancient civilizations. If anyone dares to block it, we will not hesitate to use the most severe thunder to kill them. Regardless of skeletons  The Knights, the United Doctors' Association, the "Sword of God" or the Red Republic Army. We need a brand new, beautiful world without radiation, instead of a wilderness that has been lifeless for months and years, exuding the stench of carrion and filled with hunger and wailing Don't  Forget, this is Earth, not Hell."

    Unlike just now, Aphra's tone changed from the calm and gentle tone before, and became enthusiastic and excited, with an unusual blush appearing on both sides of her cheeks.  That look didn't look like a middle-aged woman in her forties at all, more like a female beast ready to tear her opponent apart at any time with her teeth and claws spread out.

    Lin Xiang looked at Aphra calmly, his eyes were dull, but there were some complex elements in it that were difficult to discern the specific meaning.

    "Do I have to join the Redeemers? It sounds like I have no choice."

    "Claude saved you. I don't have to believe you, but I must believe in Claude."

    Aphra took a few breaths, pulled out the cork of the wine bottle again, and poured bright red liquid into the empty glass: "He never misses anyone. This may be given to him by the virus parasitic inside the body.  Some kind of special ability, both you and I should believe in him. Haha! Don't take what I say as a threat. I have carefully studied your information, starting from the first contact with the new generation of humans in this world,  You have been consciously building your own private armed force. No matter what excuse, method or means, you must gather a small group of absolute obedience around you, and use all the resources and materials you obtain to arm and strengthen it. From a  From a small settled village to a large city with a population of over 10,000, you have been working hard to manage your own sphere of influence. You do not impose exorbitant taxes like other family organizations or powerful forces, but set the income standard at an acceptable level.  Proportion can not only make people feel rich, but also have great room for improvement. All this proves that you are a guy with rational thinking, calm mind, rarely impulsive, and good at disguising yourself and hiding things that should be exposed.  Powerful power under the sun. If I'm not wrong, your current personal strength has reached at least the ninth level evolution or even the standard of a one-star parasite. However, due to your special physique or other reasons, others cannot detect the outside world.  The energy aura emittedperhaps this is why Claude took a fancy to you and highly recommended you."

    Lin Xiang was silent, his quiet eyes completely unable to tell what he was thinking in his heart.

    Aphra is right, the Redeemer has a very comprehensive grasp of his information.  In their eyes, they are like a piece of transparent glass.  It felt uncomfortable to be seen through, but Lin Xiang didn't feel angry or murderous at all.  The fundamental reason may be that the redeemer's intentions coincide with his own in some aspects.  Moreover, from the initial contact with Captain Sauk, Lieutenant Colonel Claude and others when I came to Crescent City, I didn¡¯t have any bad feelings.  From a subjective point of view, the group "Redeemer" gave him a faint affinity.  Although, their actual identities are also skeleton knights.

    "It seems like I have no choice?" After a few minutes, Lin Xiang asked lightly.

    "You can refuse!"

    Aphra¡¯s words shocked him, and then the conversation immediately changed: ¡°But don¡¯t forget, you are only one person in this world, alone.The power of independence will always engulf you.  You have many enemies, including Sosbia, Ferdinand, Demon Claw Even if some of them temporarily surrender, once they receive support from outside forces, they will counterattack in the shortest possible time, tearing, chewing, and carving up everything you have.  You need allies, you need a strong backing, and you can never find a second friend except the Redeemer.  "

    Lin Xiang's expression remained calm, but the light in the depths of his eyes brightened slightly.

    Aphra did not lie, and her words were not threatening at all.

    "We share the same ideals. We are also survivors from the same era and have the same sad and painful memories. We should not be enemies. There are no so-called countries and camps on the earth anymore, only redeemers who want to wash away the sins of the past.  . Maybe the future of this world is completely different from what we imagined, but no matter what, we must pay for it first."

    She stood up, walked slowly to Lin Xiang, with a kind smile, and stretched out her right hand.

    After thinking for a long time, Lin Xiang finally raised his arm and held it tightly with the soft, warm palm.

    "I want to know, who is "that person"?"

    When the atmosphere in the room returned to calm and Aphra released her palms and sat back on the chair behind her desk, Lin Xiang asked a new question again.

    "This issue involves the Red Republican Army."

    Perhaps because she had just accepted a new member, Aphra's tone seemed much more relaxed: "Actually, judging from the name of the group, I believe you should be able to guess that it is actually a new component of the remaining power of China in the old era. Considering  Your actual identity and inherent ideas, as well as information about the Red Republican Army, are best collected and judged by yourself. However, for that person I would like to ask a question first - if there is a person with appearance, language and conversation, or even  A person who is exactly the same as me in every detail appears in front of me. What would you do?"

    Lin Xiang¡¯s heart suddenly jumped without any warning.

    ¡°If this question were asked in the old days, he would definitely treat it as a joke or a joke when he was bored.  However, the current environment is completely different from the past. Aphra is a rigorous-thinking woman. Her dual identity as a skeleton knight and a savior makes it impossible and absolutely impossible for her to joke about this kind of issue.  Thinking of the original origin of the new generation of human beings in the wasteland worldthe identity of "that person" can be imagined.

    "I am unique at any time. If anyone dares to impersonate my name, my body, my appearance or even everything I once ownedno matter what the reason is, he must die¡ª¡ª  "

    Lin Xiang¡¯s voice was very calm, full of irresistible and absolutely irresistible coldness.

    Aphra picked up the wine glass and said thoughtfully: "After all, clones are just soulless substitutes It seems that I was overly worried, and your reaction was stronger than I thought."

    Lin Xiang gritted his teeth: "How many copies did theymake in total? If I guessed correctly, there should be more than one or two."

    "I said, you have to find the answer yourself for everything about the Red Republican ArmyI can't help you."

    For some reason, Lin Xiang suddenly discovered that whenever the Red Republic Army was mentioned, a flame seemed to be burning in the depths of Aphra's eyes.  As for whether the meaning contained in it is hatred or excitement, I am afraid only she can understand it.

    "I have arranged for Captain Sok to transport the supplies you need from the warehouse. These items will be distributed in the name of supporting the "Vulture Mercenary Group". This is the only excuse for us to help you through regular channels. As for Gregory,  Pervert, if you encounter him in public, you must still maintain due respect. Although you have become a member of the Redeemer, on the surface, he is still an out-and-out skeleton knight. Moreover, he  Not our people.¡±

    It can be seen that Aphra is trying her best to find some relaxing topics and adjust her emotions back to normal, but her face is still a little gloomy.

    ¡°I don¡¯t like that guy¡ª¡ª¡±

    Lin Xiang shook his head: "If possible, I would rather smash his ugly head with one punch."

    ¡°It¡¯s best not to do such stupid things¡ª¡ª¡±

    Aphra said coldly: "Although we have achieved a certain degree of advantage in the balance of power, on the surface, we are still members of the Skeleton Knights. Now is not an opportunity for a public break. Only in this way can we start from America."  Headquarters receives a steady stream of supplies and other supplies. Violence can indeed change the world, but much more is needed to re-establish civilization."

    "I need more help."

    ?Lin Xiang smiled noncommittally and said: "Hidden Moon City currently has no output, and its defense status is extremely worrying. We lack everything including weapons, food, medicine, and energy."

    "I knew you would say that!"

    Aphra had obviously expected such an entanglement. She gently rubbed her forehead, opened the drawer, took out a document and threw it in front of Lin Xiang: "This batch of supplies is a personal gift to you.  Gift."

    Opening the folder, what suddenly came into view was a material transfer form that had been filled out and signed with a red seal.

    The AK100 assault rifle and Gatling multi-barreled machine gun production line comes with two caliber ammunition production equipment, 5.56 and 12.7 mm.  Five m1a3 main battle tanks, twenty "Stryker" armored vehicles, one hundred m939 military trucks, and various other types of engineering equipment and vehicles.  Of course, the table filled with strings of material names and numbers did not stop the battery production line that Lin Xiang wanted most.

    "Due to capacity constraints, all vehicles sent from the Americas headquarters are powered by small high-energy batteries. In addition, there are twenty tons of medicine, fifty tons of canned food, and five thousand sets of combat uniforms. Rafael City has approved it."  "Vulture Mercenary Group" qualifications, and incorporate you into the peripheral combat force. Therefore, Hidden Moon City can use the official logo of the Skeleton Knights."
