NIKKE, When the Milky Way Blossoms

"Go and smash the hinges of the back door, don't let a single one out!"

"it is good!"

On the other side, Viper reacted quickly. Knowing that she couldn't easily bypass the NIMPH restrictions like Rosanna, Jackal, and Krau, she took Helen's hand and forcibly dragged her towards the backstage area of ​​the hall.

Swoosh—! Swoosh—! Swoosh—!

Three hollow cones made of nano-metal detached from the lieutenant's prosthetic arm and, using the centrifugal force from swinging his arm, precisely pierced through three security personnel who were about to raise their guns.

Blood was pumped from the end of Phoenix's collarbone.

The violent swinging motion instantly severed the connection between the prosthetic limb and the body, demonstrating to artificial intelligence the limits of the human body.

Fortunately, probably no one expected that someone would actually dare to kill and cause trouble in this depraved place. There weren't many security personnel inside the Niki Hobby Club; including the one at the entrance, there were only five in total.

"Cough...cough..."

After the lieutenant swiftly killed four security guards, the club manager, whose throat had been slit earlier, finally managed to grab his own throat and weakly knelt on the ground.

Unable to believe what he was seeing, the lust that had burned in his eyes when he examined the venomous snake was gone; all that remained was a yearning for life.

"save……"

Click!

Without giving the man even a moment to beg for mercy, the lieutenant raised his foot and delivered a low front kick, instantly breaking his neck 180 degrees backward.

Even in death, the manager couldn't understand why the other party had been so ruthless.

However, there was nothing that could be done about it. After all, given Fei's sensitive status, his presence here was more akin to infiltration.

As everyone knows, exposing a murderous infiltrator is a taboo thing.

It can easily lead to unnecessary bloodshed.

"What...what do you want to do..."

Do!

The triangular dagger pierced flesh, interrupting the words of a club member hiding behind a mass-produced Niki.

However, the next horrifying scene successfully caused Phoenix's thoughts to short-circuit.

As his right arm crossed over the shoulder of the mass-produced Niki, it pierced through the eye socket of that refined scoundrel...

Instead of taking any evasive or protective actions, the mass-produced Niki, who was used as a shield, rubbed her face against the man's forearm like a lazy cat.

"..."

Looking at Niki's obedient appearance with her head on his arm, Phoenix immediately realized that the girl in front of him had no clear self-awareness at all. She was almost entirely relying on the habits that others had cultivated in her to make corresponding conditioned reflexes to the outside world.

Is this the obedience drug from Missilis that Helen was talking about?

The calm-looking lieutenant swiftly drew his bayonet, then flicked the blood off the blade, silently turning his head to look at the guests at another table who were already pale with fright.

"You, you, do you even know who I am?! I am a direct descendant of the Bernard family! If you dare kill me, you won't live either!"

"Don't rush, tell me slowly..."

The lieutenant nodded with considerable satisfaction at the genuine emotions displayed by those present in the hall, and said gently:

“Everyone has a share.”

As soon as she finished speaking, screams accompanied by crimson blood filled the entire club once again, under the listless gazes of the girls with their heads tilted to the side.

……

Bang bang bang——!!!

Countless shotgun pellets successfully destroyed the club's back door control panel, turning this well-insulated building into an isolated cage.

The piercing screams coming from the hall disrupted the snake's breathing rhythm.

Out of hatred, she endured the disgust and kept cleaning up after that idiot Krau, hoping he would launch a terrorist attack on the Ark's higher-ups.

As a result, that piece of trash became obsessed with throwing explosives at civilians to vent her weakness and incompetence;

Driven by revenge, she patiently endured years of searching the outer perimeter for evidence of crimes, intending to use this dirty evidence to disrupt the political balance of the Ark, causing them to kill each other for their own gain.

However, she has been unable to find the crucial evidence that could ignite the fuse;

To survive, she endured despair and desperately searched for a way to break NIMPH, attempting to take revenge on the ugly humans who oppressed them.

However, no one could understand her thoughts. Even a madman like Krau never considered why NIMPH was almost ineffective against her.

Loneliness, helplessness, and pain tormented the venomous snake's will again and again.

Like Maruchana...

A girl who is misunderstood, a girl without companions, is not far from going mad.

Just as Viper was about to agree to Krau's request to orchestrate a plot that could destroy the Ark, a commander named Phoenix suddenly appeared in her field of vision...

"Helen, can you hear screams?"

Looking down at his toes, hoping it would all come true, yet also worried that it was a venomous snake in his imagination, he asked Helen timidly.

The noblewoman, gradually regaining her senses, pursed her lips guiltily and replied with concern:

"Lieutenant, he's going to kill so many powerful and influential people again this time..."

"Snake, should we try to persuade the lieutenant? Is it really okay to let him continue like this? Nearly half the crew of Ark secretly hope... they all hope the lieutenant dies."

"..."

The girl, who had lowered her head, remained silent for a long while. Just as the screams were about to fade away, she suddenly raised the corners of her mouth with pleasure and replied:

"no problem."

Her drooping hair concealed the venomous snake from her blood-red eyes, which she herself was unaware had conjured up images of love.

Then I heard her continue, her voice filled with happiness, as she murmured in reply:

"With me by his side, all the schemes and plots won't be a problem."

Chapter 200 Bloodstained Rendezvous - Countdown

The club's guests are very sensible.

Ultimately, they came from a highly educated and privileged class. When they discovered that Lieutenant Phoenix was in a very bad mood, their good manners instructed them to lie quietly on the ground and try not to bother the lieutenant.

If there's any drawback, it's probably that the floor was accidentally stained with blood.

After all, bleeding indiscriminately is just like spitting indiscriminately, which goes against the gentlemanly conduct they advocate.

……

"Now that we have the list you requested, we're even."

Inside the VIP box on the third floor of the club, after hearing Phoenix's businesslike and ruthless words, Viper, who had either come to terms with it or was no longer able to, was not troubled by it.

This is a protracted war that is destined to happen.

She has to pay an exorbitant fine for her terribly bad first impression.

So, the determined girl took out an ordinary cell phone from her pocket, unlocked the screen, and handed it to the lieutenant.

The first step in a protracted war—neither side can afford to settle the score!

Therefore, after hastily devising a "man-conquering plan," the girl confidently stated:

"Besides me and Krau, there is another member of the outsider force named Niki, who is called Jackal."

She's rather naive, but because Krau saved her life, she's a die-hard Krau fan.

I once placed a locator in a lining of her clothes. If I could confirm that the jackal was following Krau, I could indirectly pinpoint Krau's location.

As he spoke, Viper took out his phone from his pocket, raised his eyebrows, and took the opportunity to lean against the man's shoulder.

“Darling~ I can try to use this list of powerful people to find out if Jackal is around Krau.”

……

……

bulibuli! m-boer~

The alarm bell rang in the VIP box, where the smell of blood had not yet dissipated.

Seeing that the venomous snake indicated she could try to pinpoint Krau's location, Phoenix thought it over and over, but ultimately let the woman lean on his shoulder, watching her slender white fingers tap the screen incessantly, wanting to see what tricks she was planning.

bulibuli! m-boer~

[Viper: Ara ara~ Captain, I think I might have run into a little trouble~]

[Klaus: Oh? You run into trouble too?]

[Viper: What?! I almost lost my life for the captain's grand plan ＼(`Δ')／]

[Klaus: Ha, still have the leisure to chat. Looks like the trouble isn't too bad.]

[Viper: Hmph! You have no conscience! I'm not going to waste my breath on you.]

[Viper: I got the list! It's that Niki Love Club I mentioned last time, a list of over two hundred nobles.]

[Viper: Remember what we talked about before? With this list, funding for all our future plans won't be a problem!]
