Chapter 142 The Heart of a Knight
Joanna has been locked up for a long time before she was finally released.
What surprised her was that the streets of London became much more lively than before. With the return of a large number of survivors from the British Peninsula and the arrival of survivors in other regions who are not optimistic about the situation of the federal war, the deserted London is once again revitalized.
The members of her team were already waiting outside. When they saw Joanna come out, they all showed excitement and joy, as if Joanna was released after she was sentenced.
Joanna followed them on the streets of London for a while, suddenly stopped and asked, "Where is Lord Merlin now?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the people who followed Joanna stopped and looked embarrassed on their faces.
One of the first knights said: "Captain, Lord Merlin is very busy now. When the people on this planet start to implement their plans, we will start moving and return to 'hell' from here. Now Merlin and all the knights are preparing for this matter..."
Joanna turned her head and looked at the others, each with a similar look, and a few others were nodding frequently, echoing the busy work of Lord Merlin.
"You guys were sent by Lord Merlin to stare at me?" The gentle expression on Joanna's face was gradually fading away. She looked at the people around her and her eyes became a little unfamiliar, "Are you still the knights under my command?"
This question made all these people look shuddered. Several people lowered their heads, and the knight who had just spoken gritted his teeth and said, "This... Captain, Lord Merlin did give us instructions, but..."
“But what?”
"Mr. Merlin is also for your own good..." said the knight, "It's a turbulent time now. Needless to say, we are all people. Even if it's you, what can you do in such a big situation? At most, you are being swept into a vortex...so..."
"Verk?" Joanna keenly captured something, took a step forward, and asked, "What do you mean? What vortex, what happened recently?"
The knight's face changed slightly, and the others also cast dissatisfied eyes at him, obviously they all felt that he had said something he shouldn't have said.
"this……"
"Answer my question." Joanna took another step forward, her beautiful eyes staring at the person in front of her, "This is my order."
The knight showed a look of struggle and hesitation, but under Joanna's eyes, he finally gritted his teeth and said, "It's Lord Gao Wen and the others. As far as I know, since the last time Mr. Su came here, Lord Gao Wen and several round table knights have been mobilizing the idea of participating in the war. They hope to join the war, and they have received unanimous opposition from Lord Merlin and the Eternal King. Now the city of London has almost become an opposition between the two camps. Lord Gao Wen and Lord Merlin have had fierce disputes at the round table several times. Now, our king does not even attend the meeting..."
When another knight heard this, he couldn't help but add, "So, we don't want Captain, you to be involved in this matter, and this is what Lord Merlin means...so..."
When Joanna heard this, her eyes in her pupils were brightening quickly: "Gao Wen and the others..."
Her words were not a problem, but were talking to herself. She immediately turned around and headed straight for Gao Wen's residence.
Seeing this scene, all of them became anxious and hurried forward, trying to stop Joanna.
But Joanna turned around and glared at them, and they all stopped again.
After all, Joanna has been their captain for many years, and her aura is still there. These knights looked at each other. Although they still looked unwilling and embarrassed on their faces, no one really stepped forward to stop them.
Joanna came all the way to Gao Wen's residence.
Gowen's residence is actually within the Knights of the Kingdom of the Dead. Although some knights of the Kingdom of the Dead moved into various locations in the city before, it was because the Lord of Hell and His servants had invaded in full swing, and a large number of residents in London left. But now it is different. A large number of survivors are pouring in. London is once again overcrowded, and the threat from hell no longer exists. The knights moved back to their earlier residence.
When Joanna came, Gao Wen was arguing with his adjutant.
Gao Wen did intend to assist the planet in the fight, and his adjutant opposed it, believing that such persistence was undoubtedly stupid and meaningless when the King of Eternity and Lord Merlin disagreed.
Their quarrel was quite fierce, and Joanna also knew the adjutant who knew Gao Wen. In her memory, the adjutant was a gentle person, without any combat ability, but was a very excellent think tank. It was hard for her to imagine that such a person would have such a quarrel with a noble Knight of the Round Table.
However, their quarrel came to an end after Joanna came in. The adjutant rarely said hello to Joanna, and just nodded and left in a hurry.
Gao Wen's expression was also a little ugly. She sat in the corner and saw Joanna, then sighed and said, "I know what you are going to do, Joanna."
Joanna took a step forward and said, "You..."
"It's been a while since you reached the third caste?" Gao Wen slowly stood up. His figure was tall, but his tone was more of expectation and pampering, "You still have a future."
"Is the future in the lab?" Joanna smiled and said, "I may have doubts before, because I am still young, and I don't know if the choice I made is correct, because there are too many people involved in this, but I think if the Knights of the Round Table think this is correct..."
"This is not right." Gao Wen replied calmly, "No death is right, and living is the right source of everything.
“But we are knights, we are dead.
"You said you don't know if your choice is correct. In fact, we don't know. Joanna, maybe our lives are all false, but those false experiences and insights tell us what to do, and we cannot be sure whether that is the most correct choice. Before seeing the results, no one can guarantee that what they do is right.
"I can't give you any advice, but I will pass this wish to everyone in this kingdom within a month. It has nothing to do with the king, nothing to do with you and me, but with the whole of Britain.
"We will decide by a democratic vote, and the king has agreed.
“So, then, if you make your choice, you can come here again.
"Come with your determination and will."
