NIKKE, When the Milky Way Blossoms

Hmm, just right.

The commander surnamed Fei, who had just received a sharp rebuke, nodded in satisfaction.

This is what Yinhua should be like.

Her blushing, stubborn, and coquettish demeanor is actually quite cute after seeing it a few times.

"Hey?"

Seeing the third-rate man staring at her unabashedly, with an unwavering gaze, Yin Hua felt a sudden, inexplicable panic.

"Why are you looking at me like that! Hurry up, are you squatting on the ground waiting for Lecher to come knocking on your door?!"

Chapter 107 The Drunkard

There is no rush to remove NIMPH.

Phoenix understands this principle, Diesel understands it, and Yin Hua, whose mind is in turmoil because of someone's gaze, certainly cannot be unaware of it.

Therefore, after the commander successfully treated Marian and the other two, and repeated to them again that he could remove NIMPH...

The rebel group immediately gained three more generals.

Marian, in particular, was overjoyed by the commander's open and honest attitude.

Unlike Yin Hua's inner struggles and Diesel's desire for revenge.

Marian, for the simple yet convoluted reason that "the commander is her commander," resolutely decided to join the commander's rebellion.

The Ark, a place both familiar and strange.

From as far back as she could remember, Marianne had never felt any care or concern from others in that small orphanage.

She was deceived when she first entered society and signed the Nikki application while heavily in debt. After becoming Nikki, she was treated like a war machine even more severely.

It seems no one has ever considered that every Niki was originally human.

No one has considered that most of the Nikkis, when they were still teenagers, volunteered to participate in the Nikki Surgery, which had a mortality rate of over 60%, in order to serve the Ark.

It's as if all their sacrifices were taken for granted.

“I’m willing to go anywhere as long as I can be with the Commander.” Marian’s gaze was firm and intense.

In terms of directness, she definitely has a natural talent that she herself is unaware of.

Of course, it's possible the girl has already realized the seriousness of the problem. Her commander is destined to be very popular with the Nikis.

There can only be one commander.

If you have a quick hand, you will have it, but if you have a slow hand, you will not have it.

If they keep acting coy and hesitant, when the day comes that everyone eats together, they might not even be able to get the leftover spices for soup.

It's better to establish your position openly first; feelings can develop gradually over time.

It is precisely this type of straightforward girl that is the type that Phoenix, who is always quick-witted, is least adept at dealing with.

Phoenix handled women like venomous snakes—straightforward yet not straightforward, ambiguous yet not ambiguous, always seeming to be calculating—with remarkable ease.

Then there are girls like Yin Hua, whose charm lies in the hazy, veiled feeling of a young woman, and a certain man always assumes that she doesn't have any feelings for him.

Thinking about it this way, it seems there's some truth to the fact that Mihara was able to get the first kill on the commander.

Forget about any entanglement or restraint; the free-spirited Mihara would never stoop to such girlish or wicked woman tactics.

With her looks, she could easily win over any man she met.

……

"Cough cough..."

Faced with Marianne's piercing gaze and words that sounded almost like a confession, Phoenix, unable to withstand such enthusiasm, quickly coughed and waved his hand, urging her on:

"Alright, everyone get ready. We'll leave the H region first, and after we find a place to stay, I'll help you deactivate NIMPH."

"Yes, Commander." The group of Nikis nodded in agreement.

Only Yin Hua habitually pursed her lips, letting out a rather disgruntled sound.

"whispering sound."

The girl's gaze swept over Marianne's chest, confirming that it was only slightly smaller than Emma's, and she felt increasingly contemptuous of someone's superficial behavior of liking large breasts.

This kind of third-rate man,

She doesn't care!

……

……

The journey out of Region H was uneventful.

Of course, there wasn't the fighting and killing that I had expected.

After all, of the six players on the team, only Diesel maintained his normal level of performance...

Yin Hua's body frequently malfunctions, making it difficult to maintain stable combat effectiveness.

The situation of Sabohr, Ningya, and Marian is even more obvious.

—They didn't even have weapons.

The first two lost their weapons on the battlefield because they were captured by Secret Material H.

Marian, on the other hand, had to suffer more.

A commander borrowed her submachine gun while she was unconscious, but due to his unstable mental state, he forgot to retrieve it for her.

So the five Nikis combined only had two weapons.

Among them, Yin Hua's sniper rifle ammunition, after being counted, was confirmed to have only a pitiful twenty-seven rounds.

With that level of firepower, unless Phoenix suddenly suffers a severe mental breakdown, even if he's completely out of his mind, he wouldn't choose to confront Leitch's encirclement head-on and charge out like he used to.

Taking a detour

That would be their best course of action.

The cost of taking a detour,

It took the group more than 30 hours underground to escape the search and encirclement of nearly a thousand Lechers.

Afterwards, Phoenix, who was temporarily safe, led everyone on a journey that took several days, carefully evacuating from the H region and stopping briefly in an unmarked, deserted town.

However, the problem of food shortages resurfaced, just like before.

The person lying on the sofa never imagined that, having participated in two ground missions, the two missions would be so similar in process.

Each story begins with a small mission, then encounters a major upheaval, including a tyrant-level Rachel individual, and finally receives support from special forces...

the most important is,

He once again experienced the despair of being deprived of food and water.

The commander was extremely weak due to lack of food and water.

Including Yin Hua, Niki and the others were all as anxious as ants on a hot pan.

They knew they had to help the commander find food and drinking water, but the girls, who had grown up on an ark on land, didn't even understand what the word "hunting" actually meant, let alone hunting.

Fortunately, they had Yin Hua, a former military academy graduate, to back them up. And her weapon was, of course, a sniper rifle, a popular choice.

"I'll try to shoot down a few birds."

As soon as the black-haired girl said this, she ignored everyone's advice and insisted on leaving the town alone with her gun. She came to a relatively flat area with many trees and started shooting birds.

boom! ! !

Gunshots echoed through the woods, then drifted leisurely into the sky.

Startled by the gunshots, the birds fled their nests, all flying towards the sky, which they believed to be safe.

boom! ! !

boom! ! !

Two more bullets were fired, and even though her body's fluidity was disrupted, Yin Hua's marksmanship still maintained her ace-level skill.

Similarly,

Her beloved gun, "Perfectionist," also maintains considerable firepower, just like her.

The large-caliber sniper armor-piercing rounds, capable of penetrating Lecher's armor, blasted the poor little creatures into a horrifying cloud of blood mist the moment they hit the birds.

"Wow~~"

Just as Yin Hua was feeling extremely annoyed, a white figure suddenly appeared in the distance through the forest.

Her body was as light as a swallow, and her form as graceful as a dragon.

"You can't use such a violent young lady for hunting, little lady~"

"who!"
