People are on the Ark, assisting Oma Zi-O

Ever since Fang Ark started drinking this tea on a daily basis, Kal'tsit's visits to his office have increased. He also learned from Warfarin that there was a huge increase in the monthly coffee supply to Kal'tsit. It was easy to imagine where this huge increase came from.

So this time, Fang Zhou still thought that this old lynx came to his office to drink tea.

You are the director of the Medical Department, which is the largest and most important department in Rhodes Island. But you don't do your job properly and come to the Tactical Command Office every day to eat tea?

How do you drink tea? How can you drink tea with peace of mind at your age?

Of course, these words were just said in his heart. Fang Zhou didn't mind sharing his tea with the people around him. He brought a lot of tea with him anyway. As long as they were not the type who chewed tea leaves as if they were food, the tea leaves would be enough for them to drink for a year or two.

Even if he really finishes drinking by then, he can just call Tokiwa Sougo and ask him to send a trans-dimensional express. Anyway, Gates and Wozniak will help him to restore order, and that guy is very free now.

Thinking of this, Fang Zhou took a sip of tea and looked at Kal'tsit opposite him. His legs were crossed, showing the slender curves of his legs. His cold eyes turned from the clear tea in the teacup to look at the person opposite him, without saying a word.

Only after the warmth entered her stomach did Kal'tsit slowly put down the teacup. The sound was like a gentle breeze, brushing past her ears.

"I just arrived. If the medical department needs me every day to handle matters big and small, then I should consider whether I should submit a document to Amiya and ask her to think about it, so as to save Rhodes Island some money."

Haha, this is still a roundabout way of speaking, but it’s much better than before. At least this time it’s not a riddle.

"I heard that an accident occurred when you were testing the performance of the Xiumagia at Longmen?"

Fang Ark looked at Kal'tsit with some surprise. After they came back, they only notified Logos of this matter temporarily and had a discussion in the engineering department. It had not been announced to the public. How did Kal'tsit know about it?

"Krosier told me, but he only said that there was an unexpected situation during the test, and didn't say what it was specifically about."

"And then you rushed over from the medical department to ask me about what happened?"

Kal'tsit looked at Fang Zhou with a burning gaze, and said with a hint of concealment:

"I'm just worried about whether this accident will affect the transaction between Rhodes Island and Longmen regarding Xumagia. After all, this transaction is about Rhodes Island's future funding and financial situation. Moreover, if this accident causes us to breach the contract, then according to the terms of the contract, we will need to pay a large amount of liquidated damages to the Longmen government, which will further increase the pressure on Rhodes Island's already fragile finances.

This land is in chaos, with nations engaged in deceitful acts against one another. When faced with conflicts between you and me, resorting to force is always the quickest way to achieve results.

But even in such a chaotic land, force can never solve all problems. Money is still the top priority, and the policies that Rhodes Island has always adhered to make our demand for wealth far greater than that of other organizations.

In summary, my real concern is whether there will be problems with the transaction between Rhodes Island and Longmen regarding Xumagia."

Well, 99% perfect! A rare item!

That’s right, that’s the taste! It tastes just right!

Fang Zhou's eyes became more playful, but if Kal'tsit really faced this look, maybe he would be able to experience what the legendary Kal'tsit grip was like.

The same thing happened to Kal'tsit. Even through the helmet, she could feel that the look in the guy's eyes must be quite embarrassing.

Fortunately, there is a layer of helmet ×2

The two of them thought so at the same time.

"So, how's it going?"

Diverting the embarrassing topic, Kal'tsit tried to talk about something serious.

"It wasn't a big deal. The gang leader was killed right in front of us and someone outside the Royal Guards. He was killed from a high altitude and then thrown to the ground. We even heard this whistle before the murderer left."

唳————!

The sharp and ancient whistle stimulated Kal'tsit's eardrums, making her seem to see some kind of hallucination for a moment.

The decaying death seemed to stretch out its claws from behind her, and darkness spread behind her. Something in it was watching her, and...

"Roar--"

Mon3tr's roar woke Kal'tsit up. When she opened her eyes, she saw Fang Ark's hand stretched out in front of her.

"Looking at you, I thought you were tired, but Mon3tr, the way you look...it seems like you were affected by the whistle."

"This is a banshee's bone whistle... The person who killed the gang boss you mentioned was a banshee?"

And she's an old-school banshee. Did she leave when Lamaren reorganized the valley? No, she left before that.

The Banshee's changes occurred long before that time.

So……

"Either some old undead from the Banshee clan are messing around, or..."

Kal'tsit's thoughts flashed through her mind like lightning, and she couldn't help but hold her forehead.

"Is it a strange banshee?"

Although it was a question, Kal'tsit's tone was a positive statement.

The old undead of the Banshee clan are basically gone. After all, even among the Sarkaz, unless it is a special race like the Dead Souls, it is difficult to have a thousand-year-old monster.

Then this creature with the action mode of an ancient banshee, which is almost extinct in this land today... is an ancient banshee, a banshee in history, it is not difficult to guess.

"I can only say that the probability is very high. After all, you can't completely deny that there really aren't some old people outside the valley who have lived for over a thousand years, right?"

"Even for the Sarkaz, their physiological limits wouldn't allow them to live that long."

Don’t you see that apart from the shapeshifters, the only thousand-year-old elders among the Sarkaz are those two dead souls. One of them changed his body into a mechanical tin man, and the other is possessed in an airship. Neither of them is a proper biological body, because in this land, except for those giant beasts and other special creatures, the physiological limits of most creatures do not allow their life span to reach about a thousand years.

Not even the Sarkaz.

"There are always unexpected things. If you can't disprove a conclusion, then there's no way to prove it can't happen. Maybe, like the Tin Man in Columbia, this banshee has transformed her body into a mechanical one? Although that's less likely."

Kal'tsit gave Fang Ark a blank look.

It's just like a quarrel between children. Does this guy really have to argue with me here?

"But anyway, I've already prepared Amiya and Logos. Logos previously condensed the Banshee's history into a control chart and gave it to Amiya. As the current High Banshee, he has the authority in this regard."

Hearing Fang Ark say this, Kal'tsit suddenly remembered the fight between Amiya and Bozhukasti on the training ground, and looked at the former suspiciously.

"Could it be that the fight between Amiya and Bozhukas at the training ground was also..."

"That's right. After the previous battle, Bodrakas handed the control dial to Amiya. Amiya now possesses four Sarkaz control dials: Goliath, Balrog, Banshee, and Wendigo. After some time spent in training, she's become accustomed to the fighting styles of Goliath and Balrog. She's currently learning Banshee's spells, and Amiya hasn't personally used the Wendigo control dial."

Speaking of the Wendigo Control Head, Amiya had no intention of using it during the battles during this period. It was obvious that the Wendigo Control Head could give Amiya more powerful strength, but even so, for some reason, Amiya never used this Control Head. She had always used the three Control Heads of the Fire Demon, Goliath and Banshee.

Could it be that the Wendigo's appearance in real life is too terrifying, causing Amiya to doubt the aesthetics of the armor used by the pilot and thus reject it?

Although Amiya is very young and usually gives people the impression of being very sensible, she is still a girl after all. If this is the reason, Fang Zhou can understand it.

"I won't ask any more about this matter, but have you figured out how to search for that 'banshee'?"

Kal'tsit swapped the positions of her legs, changing from her right leg pressing her left leg to her left leg pressing her right leg.

"The first sighting was reported in the slums. Although this report alone is somewhat subjective, it is best to start the investigation from the slums.

And when I was in the Guards Bureau, there was a piece of news that concerned me deeply."

What Fang Zhou was talking about was naturally the case of theft in the slums that he heard at the Guards Bureau when Chen Huijie reported the incident of Xumagia holding a pistol to Wei Yanwu.

After searching for a long time, there was no result. Even the police officers from the other side's Shadow Guard Bureau didn't see anything.

But what if the thief is this guy who looks like an alien banshee?

This can be said to be an irrelevant guess, but what if?

There are too few clues at hand now. Even if there is something that may be related, it would be a great improvement if it can be put on the possible relationship website.

"Using the banshee's spell to steal? This..."

Kal'tsit frowned. In the history of the Banshees, there were some freaks who would use the spell that carried a heavy history for some very strange purposes, including theft. However, according to Fang Ark, most of the thefts recorded by the Guard Bureau were wallets or some personal belongings.

In her memory, several banshees had used their spells to steal national treasures such as King Victoria's crown and the sword of the Emperor of the Ursus Empire. Although it was still theft, it didn't matter whether they succeeded in stealing the things or not. Just saying it would make you proud.

But some small wallets and personal belongings...

“If these thefts are related to that banshee, I’m sure it’s definitely a different kind of banshee.

I don't know about the current banshees; you could ask Logos. But if they truly were once part of the banshee tribe, they would definitely not use their agility, their ability to glide through the night sky, or their complex spells, which some consider the glory of a banshee, for such petty thefts."

"I think so too."

After agreeing with Kal'tsit's idea, the atmosphere between the two fell silent again for a moment.

"Let's have dinner together later tonight? Although a lot of things are happening right now, there's an old saying in Dayan: Man is iron and rice is steel. No matter what the situation, you still need to eat.

I think this statement can be extended, as it itself carries a certain optimism.”

Ark's invitation made Kal'tsit's ears shake slightly, and then she did not directly answer Ark's question:

"Optimism isn't a bad thing. At least in this world, if you always choose to be a pessimist, you won't even need anyone else to harm you; you'll be killed by your own pessimism in endless sorrow and despair."

"Ha. Sounds good. So, let's go together tonight?"

"……Um."

Seeing Kal'tsit agree, Fang Ark whistled happily in his heart, and then postponed telling the person in front of him that Precious had slept with Theresa.

After all, Ark had no doubt that Kal'tsit's complicated feelings towards Precious would cause her to suffer from PTSD when she heard the name, although Kal'tsit, with her own mental limitations, would not be too emergency.

But the most important question is why Precious would impose his will on Theresa? And at this time?

In the original world line, Priss basically only existed in the background. It was speculated that it existed in the Originium, trying to merge the entire intelligent life civilization of Terra with the Originium. But until the latest information known by Ark, Priss was still competently serving as its own background.

What on earth made her choose to take action here personally?

Is it the advent of Oma Zi-O's history? Why does she reject Oma Zi-O's history so much?

Unfortunately, the time was too short last time, so Fang Ark didn't have time to ask Theresa in person.

If possible, you might as well ask her next time you meet.

But it would be embarrassing if I guessed wrong.

Just as Ark invited Kal'tsit to dinner and was thinking about this and that, in the slums of Lungmen.

boom!

In a simple room, a monster wrapped in rags staggered to the ground, its pitch-black bone claws as sharp as a paper cutter, cutting and splitting the wooden floor directly.

The monster's dry face had exposed teeth, and its bloodshot eyes flashed with panic and terror. The monster had no nose. Where the nose should have been, there was only a single nostril for breathing, etc.

His frog-webbed feet struggled on the ground. He slowly lifted himself up to the wall, leaning half of his body against it, and looked at his unrecognizable hands in panic.

Why? Why did it become like this?

The monster couldn't help but howl in sorrow in his heart.

I was just greedy and wanted to steal the lady's wallet, but I didn't expect that I would be discovered and caught by the lady at the corner of the street after just turning a corner. I wanted to beg for mercy and then use my tried and tested skills of acting cute and acting coquettish to get the other party to let me go, but I didn't expect that the other party would not give me this opportunity at all.

Without any hesitation, I was pushed to the ground and tied up. The last scene in my memory was that woman walking towards me step by step, holding a huge watch and placing it on my chest.

Thinking of this, the monster quickly touched her chest, and as her resistance grew, she slowly began to emit a purple light.

Finally, under her accustomed gaze, the monster's flat chest slowly became fuller, and its uncomfortably ugly face turned into a fair and tender face. Its purple ears drooped listlessly behind its head, and its eyes stared blankly at its own hands.

Time slowly left his chest, and a large dark purple watch appeared in his empty hand.

Then take the serious monster face above the purple watch, which is basically the same as the face of the monster she just turned into.

"It's your fault."

The girl looked at the alien driving watch in her hand with tears in her beautiful eyes, thinking about how she had just turned into a monster and could not control her body. She could only watch the monster flying in the sky. Then it seemed to find the right time to dive down, catch a man, kill him, and then throw him down from a high altitude.

In just a few days, her initial delight in the big watch turned into her current disgust. Her mental journey was quite complicated.

Originally, when she first used the alien to control the power in the watch, the monster girl she transformed into was extremely excited. After all, when she turned into a monster, the magical spells that suddenly appeared in her mind allowed her to effortlessly get the wallets or other valuables she wanted from the people passing by.

However, all this has changed today. When he turned into a monster as usual to make a small fortune, a strong feeling rushed into his heart, followed by a dizziness. When he woke up, he found that he could no longer control his body that had turned into a monster. He could only watch him gliding in the sky, then grabbed the fleeing man and threw him directly from the sky, and before that he even poked the man's head with his claws.

Because the scene was so horrifying, the girl even found it horrifying and dared not recall it.

"Damn it, it's all your fault. Otherwise, why would I become a murderer?"

Thinking of this, the girl immediately raised her hand and wanted to throw the big watch in her hand away. It was actually because of this big watch that made her become a monster. So as long as she threw it away, everything would be over.

But the girl's thoughts were too rosy. She just raised her hand and saw several energies extending from the inside of the big watch and wrapping around her wrist, and then penetrated into her body again amid the girl's screams of fear.

After the purple light reappeared and dissipated, the girl disappeared from the spot, replaced by an ugly and ferocious banshee monster.

Chapter 143: The Heavy History of Annihilation of Humanity

Ore disease. In this land, contracting this disease is equivalent to being sentenced to death.

But in fact, Xiao Ansuo, who lives in the slums of Longmen, or as the old men in the urban area call it, the lower city area, knew very early that there is only one disease in this land.

Poor disease.

When abandoned by his parents, little Anso did not resent them.

Because she knows that for the poor who become poorer the more they have children, abandoning their children is often a last resort.

At least, her parents were crying and sad when they kicked her out of the house.
