Wang Ling stared at the silver-haired young man in front of her.
Cure her husband's illness?
It had to be said that this was a condition that was full of temptation to her. Even if she couldn't believe it in her heart, she couldn't say anything to refuse for a moment.
And what this King of Roland just said was indeed a fatal blow to her.
Her home country was one of the top ten superpowers in the Galaxy. As the chief Mecha designer of the National Academy of Sciences, she used to be so glamorous. She could wander freely in the Mecha field. Who didn't say that she was young and promising?
But now?
She was a Mecha consultant in the bottom two Star Network Region E, and the orders she received were all for the most basic Mecha modifications.
Although the experience in the past six months was not completely useless, at least it made her more solid in her basic skills. It made her consider the practicality and cost-effectiveness of Mecha more carefully than before.
But she still couldn't accept it.
Her goal was never to stay in the same place.
In addition to curing her husband's illness and trying to keep him alive, she also wanted to work in the Research Institute again.
Although this goal was still far away from her, she would work hard to achieve it.
But now, a country suddenly extended an olive branch to her, and the people of this country … could actually restrict users from going offline on the Star Network!
Wang Ling clenched her fists and asked in a low voice, "Are you from the Star Alliance?"
Xu Sili shook his head with a smile.
"I'm from the Roland Empire. I'm the current monarch of the Roland Empire. You can trust me."
He said, "Here's a letter for you from your old friend."
Because Dr. Ding Mingyu's identity was very sensitive, he didn't accompany Xu Sili this time. He only wrote a letter and asked him to help deliver it.
Wang Ling looked at the letter the young man handed over and frowned.
This was a virtual letter. It was obviously scanned in the real world and generated in the Star Network community. It looked no different from the real thing.
She bit her lip and finally reached out to take it.
When she saw the handwriting, she couldn't help but be surprised. "Old Ding?"
"Yes."
Xu Sili nodded. "He is now the director of the Roland Empire's Research Institute. If you are willing to work for him, you will have the opportunity to work together. I think you should be aware of Director Ding's ability and character."
Wang Ling became even more cautious.
She had actually heard about the persecution that Dr. Ding Mingyu had encountered, but she was too busy to help.
However, she did not expect that the teacher who took care of her not only had a fortuitous encounter, but also brought her such a letter.
She read the letter from beginning to end and was silent for a long time before she said, "Thank you for your invitation, but …"
"I can't trust you with just a letter. After all … our current situation is very dangerous, and we don't want to bring trouble to your country."
Previously, they had asked for help from other countries, but they were all rejected. Now, a country had finally found them and promised them generous treatment, but she could no longer trust them so easily.
After experiencing so many unforeseen events, people would grow up. She couldn't be as naive as before, but …
"What will you do if I refuse?"
Wang Ling looked at the young man in front of her, her heart trembling uncontrollably.
Roland Empire …
She was curious about the "Roland's Goodnight Song", so she went to investigate. That was why she knew that this unknown country was ranked very low in the GAL.
She did not think that such a small country could protect her and her husband. As for … curing her husband's illness? This was simply a fantasy.
Even her home country could only provide a special medicine to keep her husband alive. How could a small country like Roland offer such conditions?
After calming down, Wang Ling only felt terrified.
She did not know about her husband's illness, or she knew but still chose to deceive him. She did not think about anything else.
Maybe … even Mr. Ding was coerced?
Otherwise, it was hard for her to believe that he would praise such a weak country in his letter.
Although this country was weak, it was still an irresistible force for ordinary people like them.
Facing Wang Ling's eyes that tried to hide the fear in them, Xu Sili felt helpless.
However, it was indeed very difficult to obtain the other party's trust with just a letter. This was something that he had already anticipated.
So, he said, "I just said, please don't be nervous. I won't hurt you. Even if you can't give me a satisfactory answer, I won't do anything to you."
Wang Ling still stared at him vigilantly. Although she did not want to believe that the Germinal Organization and the singer of the Goodnight Song were bad people, she still tried not to be affected by her subjective feelings.
At this time, she heard the young man say, "You can go offline first. Later, my people will bring Mr. Ding to you. I'm just reminding you in advance.
"Don't panic when you see anything strange. As long as you stay in your room, there will be no problems."
Wang Ling was stunned. "You know our address? Are you and Mr. Ding on Planet Bazite now? "
She never expected that the people of Roland had already arrived on Planet Bazite!
Xu Sili did not say anything. This was not easy to explain.
However, Wang Ling misunderstood. Her face was full of panic.
"Your Majesty of Roland, I believe in your sincerity, but my husband is sick and dying. He can no longer travel through space!
"Even if I promise you, he can't go to your country! And once I leave him, he won't be able to hold on. Do you understand? "
Xu Sili nodded. "I understand very well. Please wait in your room. Leave the rest to us."
According to Si Sheng's idea, he was the executor of this matter. If he was sent to negotiate, Xu Sili was 100% sure that he would not give the two of them any chance to refuse.
After all, they were one of the top 100 interstellar scientists in the future. They had to be respected. Furthermore, Roland was not Xing Dao. They had to convince them to serve Roland sincerely.
However, Xu Sili also felt that this was troublesome.
He could not help but curse in his heart. He decided to let Wen Jishan be in charge of this matter next time. After all, he seemed to have nothing to do recently.
Before Wang Ling went offline, Xu Sili added, "I know you doubt Roland's ability and don't believe that I can cure Dr. Yi's illness, but I will use facts to convince you."
"Even if you decide to refuse Roland in the end, for the sake of Director Ding, we will cure Dr. Yi's illness."
"Okay, please go offline now. I have to go back and prepare."
Wang Ling went offline in confusion.
She sat up in the virtual cabin and did not know what to do.
Should she choose to escape?
Where could she and her husband escape to? Just as she said, Dr. Yi Minkang's body could not withstand the torment.
If she stayed, perhaps the worst result would be that her identity would be exposed and she would be sent back to her country, which would still be a dead end for her husband.
Wang Ling was suddenly filled with despair.
Dr. Yi Minkang on the side also felt that his wife was not in a good state. He struggled to sit up in bed and wanted to ask her, but …
"His Majesty Roland invited us to his country to serve as the deputy director of the Imperial Research Institute and conduct research on mechas. Mr. Ding is also there."
Wang Ling said in a low voice.
Hearing this, Yi Minkang could not help but be stunned, then he laughed.
"Isn't that great? Roland … Although it is a small country and seems to be in a difficult situation, to be able to give birth to such a lively folk song, I believe that this nation will definitely not succumb to adversity. "
Yi Minkang also knew about Roland. He was sick and bedridden and had nothing to do every day. When he became interested in Roland, he conducted a very comprehensive investigation.
Although there was very little information about this country on the Internet, from the known information, he pieced together a country that was still tenacious in desperate times and was full of good feelings for this country and its people.
Hearing his relaxed tone, Wang Ling could not help but feel angry and indescribable sadness.
She said, "He also said that he can cure your illness, this is one of the rewards."
Dr. Yi Minkang blinked, his expression was somewhat dignified. Obviously, he did not quite believe it.
He knew his condition better than anyone else — his organs had been diseased, and one day, he would become as fragile as a piece of paper and finally lie on the hospital bed, dying of organ failure.
Special drugs could only slow down this process.
"Did you agree?"
"This kind of promise is obviously a lie, how can I agree?" Wang Ling gritted her teeth and said, "Besides, Roland will send people to find us soon."
"Let's escape, once we are found, we can't refuse. With your body, it will be death for you to continue interstellar travel."
Yi Minkang's hands were trembling. He said, "Maybe His Majesty Roland really has a way?"
Wang Ling did not speak, only looking at him as if he was mentally retarded. In the end, Yi Minkang also fell silent awkwardly.
But looking at her packing, he still made a decision.
"Go, don't worry about me," he said weakly. "I …"
"Shut up, I don't have time to argue with you now!"
Wang Ling scolded in a low voice, but the next moment …
She and Yi Minkang both opened their eyes wide.
They saw a blonde man suddenly appear in front of them silently, standing in the empty space in the room that was barely enough for him to stand.
A pair of gray-blue eyes coldly swept over them.
"Wang Ling? Yi Minkang? "He whispered.
The unfamiliar language gave them a sense of familiarity.
Yi Minkang suddenly opened his eyes wide, looking at the tall man in front of him like a god, and asked in deep shock, "You are His Majesty Roland?"
How did he come to their house?
Si Sheng looked at him, very satisfied with his respectful attitude. Realizing that their language was different, he switched to the interstellar language and said, "I am not His Majesty."
"His Majesty asked me to take you back, but before that, I will cure your illness first."
Yi Minkang could only look at him with a dull face, watching him raise his hand to release a soft golden light in the palm of his hand. In a way that science could not explain, the light covered his body.
Then, a miracle was born!
His body was recovering its strength at a completely perceptible speed!
