NIKKE, When the Milky Way Blossoms

"Helen, I've got this sorted out. Come on up, and have Viper drive over while you're at it."

As soon as Phoenix hung up the call, the pain slowly and precisely began to creep into his brain.

Extensive burns plus numerous cuts and scrapes.

Putting aside the issue of infection, the sheer torment of the half-cooked nerve pain from the burns was enough to make the lieutenant's temples throb with pain.

"Heh, you look like you're in a lot of pain. So, your body modification and Niki's technological philosophy are not on the same track."

Just as Phoenix was frowning and making a call to Yin Hua with one hand, beneath his feet, the oblivious Clau began to ramble on in her calm, even slightly detached voice.

The mere melting of the central nervous system was not enough to kill a Niki, so Krau, whose only remaining functioning organ was her mouth, naturally launched into a verbal attack.

"The transformation process must have been painful, right?"

"What belief sustained you in completing the modification? Was it for the Ark? Or for humanity?"

"It seems you don't know how humans treated Niki. I happen to know some things about the Goddess Force from a hundred years ago. Are you interested?"

bugu~bugu~

Unfortunately, Krau's incessant, vague ramblings had no effect on the person.

All that answered her was the dial tone from the phone and the increasingly forceful, humiliating trampling on her face.

"Hey, Yinhua, I've caught the guy who planted the bomb. It's the same guy who killed Diesel's brother back then."

How's the situation on your end?

Yinhua: "＃＆%￥$^?!"

"By the way, I don't plan to report this matter to the Central Committee."

Tell Ingrid that I've killed the person and ask her to arrange for a trusted confidant to come to the outer perimeter to pick me up. I accidentally got some thermite grenade on myself while arresting people here, and judging by the area, the medical capabilities in the outer perimeter aren't enough to handle it.

The meeting place is not yet clear.

Here's Helen's and Viper's contact information. The one in front is a member of my squadron, and the one at the back door is the informant who provided clues about the criminals.

“＆￥%$＃⊥∈!!!”

"...If you're in the mood to argue with me, you might as well go and urge your boss. I have something to take care of here, so I'll hang up now and talk to you later."

After giving his instructions on his "last wishes," the lieutenant audaciously hung up the phone amidst Yin Hua's anxious reprimands.

That's when.

Clang!!!

The apartment door was kicked open, and Helen, who had already heard the gunshots and explosions downstairs, rushed upstairs the moment she received the message from the lieutenant, her pretty face filled with anxiety.

However, before the noblewoman could question him, Phoenix, racing against time, immediately pointed to the still-chattering livestock on the ground and preemptively said:

"Help me cut off this guy's arms and legs, but don't kill him, I want him alive."

……

……

hum-

When the venomous snake parked its transport vehicle by the roadside, it carried the jackal on its back and rode at full speed to the room Helen had described.

When the girl saw the man who had been perfectly fine just a dozen minutes ago now sitting sideways in a chair, his left side was covered in cyanosis and charred black, the marks of burns.

Then look at Krau, who was hacked to pieces by Helen on the floor...

The venomous snake became anxious.

She took three steps in two, flashed to Phoenix's side, and touched his carotid artery with her fingers.

My heart rate is a little weak...

Fortunately, the pace was steady and the overall situation wasn't too bad.

However, even after confirming that the man had only lost consciousness, the viper's heart did not relax. Instead, she became even more anxious and took out her phone. While making a call, she turned her head angrily and glared at Helen with her scarlet snake eyes that represented her anger.

"I'll contact the quack doctor nearby right away! As for you, you'd better give me an explanation as to why you're completely untouched by dust."

Faced with the venomous snake's questioning, Helen, still proud at heart, not only remained unmoved but also showed no intention of offering much explanation.

Firstly, Nikki, from this outer perimeter area, wasn't even part of their squadron. Since they weren't teammates, there was no obligation for her to answer their questions.

Secondly, the lieutenant was extremely wary of this woman, even more so than he was of himself.

Thirdly, given the circumstances, someone should indeed have been stationed downstairs to prevent the terrorist from escaping by jumping out of the window.

There were only two of them. The other side also had two options: fight back or run away.

Regardless of how manpower is allocated, the commander has a chance of being one-on-one with a terrorist.

Therefore, Helen, full of confidence, spoke righteously and sternly:

"No need to call a doctor. The lieutenant told me before he went to rest that we can just wait here and someone will contact us in a little while..."

"He instructed you because he's your commander! Giving you orders is his duty! As a subordinate, shouldn't you always use your brain to do extra things?!"

Hearing that Helen was refusing to admit her mistake, Viper was so angry that he let out a cold laugh.

"Do you think you're just a low-wage worker doing odd jobs for a boss?"

Or do you see yourself as a low-ranking soldier who only knows how to perform single tasks?

With such a lack of awareness, I'd say you should stop dreaming of being a naval captain. Why not just lend the HMS Praise to my man for a paid vacation?

"you!"

In fact, Helen is quite aggressive when it comes to roasting people, but unfortunately, the Viper's armor-piercing ability is too high. Not only did his barrage of hurtful words leave her severely wounded in one go, but he also almost sealed her mouth with a layer of silence.

"You woman of unknown origin! You really think you're..."

bugu~bugu~

The voice communication successfully interrupted Helen's counterattack. When the noblewoman tried her best to suppress her anger, took out her phone and answered the call, she heard cold insults coming from the phone.

"Report your commander's exact location to me immediately! You useless idiots!"

"Even the tyrant barely got hurt, and you guys managed to burn him with a thermite grenade, what use are you bunch of useless trash?"

"A bunch of good-for-nothings think they can build an intelligence squadron? They should all go back to basic training!"

……

At the headquarters of Ark Central Hospital, an ambulance secretly carrying Pepper and Merri sped toward the outer perimeter.

Inside the carriage, Yin Hua, sitting on the outermost edge, was silently staring at the floor while holding her sniper rifle.

His fierce gaze was enough to send chills down Pepper's spine as she counted the medications nearby.

As the saying goes, "The more you think about it, the angrier you get," the special forces captain, after enduring for a long time, finally couldn't suppress his inner rage and gritted his teeth as he cursed in a low voice again:

"They're all trash!"

"I'll do it!"

Chapter 205 Internal Factions Gradually Become Clear

Phoenix probably never imagined that what was just a minor, serious injury and subsequent coma would turn out to be nothing more than that.

It's amazing that his harem and the suspected harem could all be set on fire.

When news of Ingrid's severe burns and subsequent disability spread from the commander's mouth to Ingrid's faction...

Then, in a fit of anger, Yinhua called Lhapi, ignoring his former teammate's slightly surprised response, and proceeded to berate him mercilessly...

Meanwhile, Lapi, who had been inexplicably scolded, learned that the commander had lost function on his left side and had been classified as disabled...

So, Anise, who had accompanied her to visit Anise who had passed away, naturally learned the news that "her boyfriend had been rushed back to the Ark ICU in just one afternoon"...

Pepper also witnessed the commander's body begin to bleed again.

Yin Hua told him personally, and he was shocked to learn that the commander had been crippled in order to avenge his own blood feud;

Marian was tearfully apologized to by Diesel and learned that her man had lost his right hand and that his left hand and left foot would most likely be replaced with prosthetics.

Then, through Marian's words, all the Nikkis who were stuck at MMR High School also learned about this...

Knowing especially that her lover wasn't inclined towards prosthetics, Mihara's feelings, as time passed, shifted from worry to anger that her "concubines" hadn't protected her man...

As for D, who was still secretly investigating cases involving "Commander Lamo Hague" and "Niki's combat records being sold," she learned the information entirely from her own intelligence network...

Anyway,

The harem of a seriously ill and injured patient is in chaos.

Because of the lingering dissatisfaction among them, the harem faction, which was originally just taking shape, has completely entered a phase of reshuffling and restructuring.
