We are from the future ark

However, at this moment, a completely different voice came out of Mudstone's mouth. If her voice was still very hoarse during the previous conversation with Chen Qi, this time, her voice was as clear as a yellow warbler, which made people feel good about her.

"Big Bob, we've all experienced betrayal. I hope you don't make the mistake this time."

"For us Sarkaz, the price of misjudgment is very heavy."

After leaving these words, Mudstone was unwilling to say anything more. He walked slowly to the side, holding the heavy hammer in his hand.

She will never trust anyone so easily again.

Even if... it's the future, it's the same.

Chapter 29: Heading to Xiosta

A month later, after Rhodes Island sorted out the next policy plan and the preliminary work for all actions, everything was finally back on track.

Ursus has temporarily given up its crusade against the Reunion Movement and has not taken any large-scale actions against Rhodes Island and Lungmen. This is good news for everyone, indicating that Ursus is not prepared and its internal conflicts have not been completely suppressed by the other party.

So, what Rhodes Island needs to do is to seize the opportunity during this period of time, quickly develop its influence, and enhance its own strength.

Chen Qi and his team had already decided on the next target.

"Xiosta - Obsidian Festival, it's such an exciting festival."

"Xiusta is located in the tropics and is warm all year round. For Xiusta, every day can be the Obsidian Festival if they want. It's just that this day was chosen as the Obsidian Festival because at this time of year, Xiusta's active volcano will be relatively active, and the local hot springs and other aspects will attract enough tourists and bands to increase their income."

"I have to say, in a place like Terra, it is really a luxury to have a place where you can soak in hot springs every day and enjoy the beach and sunshine."

"...So, why did you choose this place first?" Kal'tsit was a little puzzled when she heard this, and said lightly:

"The Obsidian Festival, is this a time for you to attract the people you want?"

"Maybe. The Obsidian Festival can indeed attract a group of people. I also have my own purpose there. Of course, these are secondary."

Chen Qi said this, then looked at Kal'tsit, smiled and said:

"Dr. Kal'tsit, I need your approval for the next matter."

"...This is the first time that you have taken the initiative to ask me for approval. In the past, you have always made decisions on your own." Kal'tsit was slightly stunned when she heard this. For some reason, looking at Chen Qi's smile, she suddenly felt something was not right.

"Tell me first, what do you want to do?"

"Of course it's a vacation." Chen Qi said without hesitation.

"Recently, the series of battles have plunged the entire Rhodes Island into fatigue and high-intensity labor. Although the New Year is a carnival, it actually does not give the operators much time to relax."

"But the Obsidian Festival is different. It's a good place to relax, and now is the time when everything is the most stable. I hope Rhodes Island can let a group of people come out to enjoy the Obsidian Festival."

"At the very least, we should ask those who work the most overtime or those who are not sociable to go with us to Xiosta. This will help improve teamwork."

"...After saying so much, don't you still want to go on vacation?"

However, Kal'tsit expressed Chen Qi's true wish in one sentence. However, when Kal'tsit said this, there was not much blame in her voice, but rather a sense of relief.

Fortunately, this kid didn't let work break his nerves and work himself madly. At least, he knew how to find an opportunity to relax.

This is a good thing. For Chen Qi, such an opportunity to relax is indeed rare.

"...Okay, I approve." Kal'tsit nodded and said to Chen Qi:

"You can choose a few people to go to Xiosta with you. I will also give holidays to those who have been working overtime in Rhodes Island. Let's see if they will go to Xiosta with you."

"boom!"

However, just as Kal'tsit finished speaking, there was a sound of a door slamming. Before the two could see clearly, they saw a black shadow suddenly pounced over and hugged Chen Qi's thigh!

"Chen Qi! Take me to Xiosta!"

"...Doctor?" X2

However, after Chen Qi and Kal'tsit looked at each other in bewilderment, Kal'tsit was the first to react. She frowned and said to the doctor;

"Doctor, you are the one who has the most free time in the entire Rhodes Island these days. Apart from daily training and affairs, when have you felt overly tired?"

"Anytime, anywhere! Kai Cat!"

However, it would have been better if Kal'tsit hadn't said anything. Once he said this, the doctor shed bitter tears, hugged Chen Qi's thighs, and kept crying:

"Chen Qi! My little Chen Qi! You need to talk to Kal'tsit! Ask her to give me this holiday!"

"It's not something a human should do! How can those piles of documents be approved by humans? Every time I get so tired that I lose my mind, and then I wake up the next day on a hospital bed with an IV drip! Who can stand this?!"

"Also, the rehabilitation training! I've almost recovered, but I still have to play mock battles with Dobermans every day, run around on a splint every day, and eat everything I bring to the office!"

"Chen Qi! Please take me to Xiosta! If I don't take a vacation, I'm really going to go into shock!"

"..."

However, looking at the doctor's pitiful tone, although he could not see the doctor's face and expression, Chen Qi still felt the strong resentment coming from the doctor.

It seems... indeed, the doctor has been under too much pressure during this period.

Actually, during this period of time, everyone on Rhodes Island was under tremendous pressure, and everyone was very tired. However, the leaders had indeed accumulated a lot of pressure. Although it was not visible on the surface, in fact, the doctor did share a large part of the pressure with Rhodes Island.

But the doctor had never spoken about this matter before. Although he would complain occasionally, he always talked about it with Chen Qi in private. This was the first time he burst out in one breath like he did today.

Perhaps, he really didn't want to miss such a great opportunity. The doctor also vaguely felt that his nerves were on the verge of collapse. If he didn't relax, he might really have to surpass humans to persevere.

"...Okay, I'll grant you this leave."

Finally, after Chen Qi's eye signal, Kal'tsit hesitated for a long time before finally giving in.

"But I have conditions, and I hope you can abide by them, Doctor."

"First of all, Xiosta is an area where active Originium volcanoes frequently occur. The concentration of Originium is astonishing. Therefore, you cannot take off your protective suit. In addition, you must stay away from the edge of the active volcano as much as possible."

"Secondly, we have a mission this time, so I hope you don't go crazy and make it impossible for us to contact you."

"Third." Kelsey paused for a moment, and after a long while, she murmured:

“…I hope that your eyes will not be too attracted by the scenery in front of you and lose sight of your ideal direction.”

"? What do you mean?" The doctor didn't understand the last sentence and asked subconsciously.

"Nothing." However, Kal'tsit didn't seem to want to say more. After shaking her head, she said to Chen Qi and the doctor, "You go and select the candidates. I'll arrange a vehicle for you."

"By the way, take Amiya with you on this mission. She has been talking about the Obsidian Festival for a while. It's a good opportunity to let her go and experience it this time."

"Gather at the land vehicle parking area in Rhodes Island in half an hour."

……

"What? The beach?"

In the laboratory, Charmander, who was with Hummer and Saria, showed an extremely interested expression after hearing about this.

"Beachside! Can we have a BBQ?"

"Hemer! Saria! Let's go to the beach!"

"Huh? Why so suddenly... Wait, Ifrit, don't hang on me."

……

"The beach? Sounds interesting."

"Let's go! Let's go to the beach! Let's have a party together! And there's Pulu Pie!"

"We can go then... It just so happens that our boss seems to be going there as well. We have to go and protect him."

...Soon, the news about Xiosta's Obsidian Festival and the people that Chen Qi would select to go to Xiosta together spread throughout Rhodes Island.

Many operators who had accumulated a lot of pressure during this period, upon hearing about this matter, quickly found Chen Qi and wanted to sign up for this rare day off.

Even some news seemed to have come from the Integration Movement.

"Are you going to Xiosta?" Frost Star, who had temporarily returned to the Integration Movement, quickly called Chen Qi after hearing about this.

"Yes, there are some people in Xiosta that we can recruit. By the way, we can also take a vacation." Chen Qi said this, but he thought of something and asked Shuangxing in the communication:

"How about it, Froststar? Why don't you try to come together? The Obsidian Festival over at Xiosta is very famous."

"...No, an infected person like me would be easily exposed if I went to a place like that."

Shuang Xing thought about it for a while, and finally rejected it a little sadly, but soon adjusted her mentality and said to Chen Qi: "Have fun there. If possible, give me some photos and bring a basin of sand."

"I'm ashamed to say that I've never seen the seaside or the beach in my life."

"…Since you said so, I am now ordering you to come out and join us."

However, the more Shuang Xing said this, the more Chen Qi felt something was wrong, and then he said:

"Don't worry. I have a little trick to help you cover up the Originium disease. You guys in the Integration Movement must be very tired during this period. Come out and relax."

"I'll say hello to Tallulah, don't worry."

"...Is it really possible?" Frost Star was still a little hesitant. It would be a lie to say that she was not tempted, but it was indeed a bit dangerous for the infected to go to a place like Xiosta.

"Don't worry! I'll find a way! It's done!"

"By the way, remember to prepare your swimsuit. Although there are places to buy and sell swimsuits there, you have to prepare them in advance."

"We will go there a day early and hope to see you in Xiosta the next day."

The call was then hung up. Shuang Xing hesitated and put down the address book in his hand. Then, in silence, he slowly walked out of the room.

"Click."

"Yelena."

"…Old stubborn?"

However, as soon as he went out, he was faced with the huge body of the Patriot. After seeing the Patriot, Frost Star showed a bit of relief.

"That's great, old stubborn man. I have no one to turn to, and you should be able to help me."

"Yes, what's the matter?" The Patriot couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this. He was quite concerned about things that could make Frost Star embarrassed.

However, in front of the Patriot, Frost Star's expression changed a little. After hesitating for several times, he slowly said in a voice almost as loud as a mosquito:

"Old stubborn man...can you help me pick out a swimsuit from a male perspective?"

"...?"

The wind of Chernobyl blows the armor of this patriot. However, at this moment, the armor of this invincible warrior does reveal a wave of desolation and bleakness that seems to be blown away by the wind...

Chapter 30: Jessica wants to become a disciple

Xiosta is a tourist city located in a tropical climate zone, surrounded by mountains on two sides and the sea on one side. The back of the city is close to the active volcano, and directly opposite is the "ocean" that many people only know in name but never see in Terra.

"...Strictly speaking, this place in Xiosta is not the sea, but a huge lake. However, for people like us, it seems reasonable to call it a 'sea' when we can see a vast expanse of water that stretches as far as the eye can see."

"Really, you are worthy of being Chen Qi. You know all this."

The group of people who arrived in Xiosta, after leaving the land vehicle, arrived at this tourist city with a tropical climate. However, the group of people who had just complained about having to change clothes and apply sunscreen in the car, completely understood how reliable Chen Qi's advice was the moment they got off the car.

It's hot, really hot. It's only been a month, and Longmen has just celebrated the Chinese New Year and entered spring, but I didn't expect it to be so hot here.

"I'm sweating right after coming out. This place really has the atmosphere of the South..." Amiya, who had already changed into a swimsuit in the car and was wearing a sun hat, looked at the scorching sunlight that was rarely seen in Longmen and couldn't help but sigh:

"Unfortunately, Dr. Kal'tsit is unwilling to come..."

“…I’m not interested in such a busy place.”

At this time, Kal'tsit's cold voice came from the communication device that Amiya carried with her:

"Have fun, but don't forget, we have a mission."

"Besides, a number of people had already gone to Xiosta before this time. If you see our operators in Xiosta, you can say hello to them."

"Me, me, me! I want to go too!" Huang's cheerful voice suddenly came from the other end of the line, but there was a hint of urgency and regret in that voice.

"Your wound hasn't healed yet. Do you want to get infected by going to such a high humidity place?"

Kal'tsit's light rebuke came slowly, and then the communicator said again: "Amiya, now that you are here, then find a place and have a good rest."

"…By the way, where's that guy? Why can't I hear his voice?"

"Eh? Doctor?"

As they said this, Amiya and Chen Qi noticed that they did not see the doctor who should have been very conspicuous in such a hot place. They glanced around and found the doctor in another place.

However, at this moment, he was being pulled aside by the arm by a blonde girl in a swimsuit.
