We are from the future ark

"--who is it?!"

However, just as Chen Qi released a strand of Originium skill, a sudden shout startled Chen Qi. The next moment, Chen Qi felt a black shadow jump out from behind the stone!

In mid-air, as if he noticed the figure below, the man's body suddenly paused, and he slowly released the sledgehammer in his hand and smashed it straight to the other side.

"boom!"

A gust of sand was suddenly blown up, and after everything dissipated, Chen Qi could see clearly who the figure hiding behind the rock in front of him was.

Familiar snow-white long hair, wheat-colored skin that was not so obvious under the moonlight, a pretty face, and a body wrapped in bandages.

"……It's you?"

When the Sarkaz girl saw Chen Qi, she was also suspicious, then she came to her senses, looked at the sledgehammer in her hand, but didn't know what to say.

"...What a fierce attack method. Miss, are you interested in working here?"

Chen Qi was also startled by the attack and vigilance of the Sarkaz girl in front of him, whom he had met once. Fortunately, the attack did not hit his face, otherwise he would have been turned into a meat paste by now.

Moreover, such a huge hammer can be wielded so vigorously. The attack method of this Sarkaz girl... is definitely not that of an ordinary person.

This brute force alone is not inferior to some of Rhodes Island's elite operators.

Perhaps it was a habit left over from the past when he was looking for talent everywhere. Chen Qi subconsciously made his invitation, then he reacted and shook his head and said:

"I'm sorry to bother you, I just..."

"…It's okay. My reaction was a bit extreme."

After a moment of silence, the Sarkaz girl didn't say much, but she was relieved. Fortunately, she was not recognized.

"Why are you here? I thought no one would be on the beach at this time."

"Indeed, it was just a coincidence..." Chen Qi nodded, but his eyes looked at the bandaged body of the Sarkaz girl in front of him for a few seconds, and then asked:

"Are you, hurt?"

"...Hmm." The Sarkaz girl thought for a moment and admitted it. She said calmly, "It was careless, but it doesn't matter. My Originium skills can heal the wound."

"Are you, the people of Rhodes Island, so leisurely?"

"...How do you know we are from Rhodes Island?" Chen Qi quickly noticed the words of the Sarkaz girl. He never said that he was from Rhodes Island.

"...This morning, I saw a lot of people running towards the volcano, so I followed them out of curiosity. That's when I knew you were from Rhodes Island."

After a moment of silence, the Sarkaz girl gave this explanation: "I was relatively close, and I helped a little when your people were fighting the giant bug in the volcano."

"Rhodes Island stopped the volcanic eruption. You completed the mission. Why do you look so sad?"

"…Nothing, I just feel like it's not done well enough."

Chen Qi could accept such an explanation. Although he was somewhat curious about the true identity of the Sarkaz girl in front of him, Chen Qi thought that he should not ask too many questions. After all, he didn't know the other party at all, but she had already helped them at the volcano, so he shouldn't ask too many questions.

"I thought I could do better. If I could do better, would the result be different?"

"Unfortunately, although life is as psychedelic as games, you can't reload the save file in life."

Chen Qi shook his head, looked at the Sarkaz girl in front of him, smiled, and said lightly:

"Thank you for helping our members. If you need anything in the future, you can come to Rhodes Island to find us. We will do our best to repay your kindness."

"Then let's say goodbye."

"……etc."

However, just when Chen Qi was about to leave, the Sarkaz girl suddenly spoke and stopped him from leaving.

“…Although what you just said is a little hard to understand, I seem to understand what you are worried about.”

"If you are troubled by the man named Kronin, maybe I know where he is hiding now."

Chapter 38: Chen Qi's plan, the upcoming integration movement

On a dark and windy night, when the people in Xiosta city were still enjoying the night all night long, two figures came to a place quite far away from the city, one almost close to the suburbs of Xiosta.

"Although I have never seen Kronin, I have heard of this name from people in Rhodes Island. Is he the instigator of this incident?"

"If he escaped from your encirclement, perhaps I can find him."

The Sarkaz girl said this to Chen Qi, and facing Chen Qi's slightly surprised eyes, she said lightly:

"My Originium technique... can communicate with the earth. If he is using a secret passage, I might be able to find some clues."

"Using the Originium technique of the earth?"

Chen Qi couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this. This kind of Originium skill was really powerful. It could be said that if used properly, it was a powerful Originium skill that could have a significant impact on the battle situation. And now, the Sarkaz girl in front of him actually possessed such ability, which really surprised Chen Qi.

However, after the surprise came a hint of joy, and in this case, perhaps he could do something.

"Miss Sarkaz, if you are willing to help me, I..."

“…No need to say thank you, I just wanted to do this.” The Sarkaz girl didn’t wait for Chen Qi to finish, she shook her head and said: “Even if I hadn’t met you, I might have gone to see you.”

"Let's go without further ado."

"By the way, Miss Sarkaz, I don't know your name yet."

"Let me introduce myself first. My name is Chen Qi, and I'm one of the operators of Rhodes Island."

"…Just call me Big Mud. That's what they all called me back then."

After a moment of silence, the Sarkaz girl uttered a somewhat strange name. Although Chen Qi felt that she was hiding something, he did not ask any more questions.

After all, everyone has secrets, right?

The two of them came together to a place far away from Xiosta city. Here, Da Ni finally stopped her steps. Holding a heavy hammer in her hand, she placed the hammer on the sandy ground and murmured softly:

"Earth...please tell me..."

Da Ni was muttering to herself. Beside her, the spread of the Originium technique caused the surrounding land to change a little. Chen Qi felt a mysterious magnetic field gathering around Da Ni, using the heavy hammer touching the ground as a medium, and was generating some kind of induction with Da Ni.

As a person who possesses the Originium skill of [Emotional Infection], Chen Qi can feel some of the emotions transmitted from Da Ni.

Communication...or rather, some kind of common magnetism?

"it's here."

Da Ni suddenly opened his eyes, and soon, he saw a deep depression not far from Chen Qi, and soon, a groove that was probably only big enough for one person to walk in appeared.

"This is a secret passage." Chen Qi walked forward and looked at the pitch-black passage below. He finally smiled after a long time.

"Sure enough, there is more than one secret passage in Kronin. No wonder Ifrit and Skadi told me that the secret passages they passed through were all dead ends."

"...He may have subordinates who have similar Originium skills as me, which are similar to those of controlling sand or soil."

Da Ni came to Chen Qi's side, looked at the road, then placed his hand on the edge of the depression, closed his eyes and began sensing again.

This time the sensing took a while longer. Da Ni's expression gradually changed from indifferent at the beginning to serious. Later, he even started to sweat before he opened his eyes.

"This secret passage is too far away. It is no longer in a direction that my Originium technique can sense."

"Does the secret passage extend to the north?" Chen Qi suddenly asked this question at this time. After a moment of silence, Da Ni nodded.

"That's right."

Chen Qi slowly stood up, looked at the dark passage, and then said: "This Kronin should have gone to some marginal area of ​​Ursus to call for reinforcements."

"This secret passage is what he prepared to lure in people from Ursus in the future."

"...Do you need me to block it?" Hearing this, Da Ni seemed to know the seriousness of the matter and asked Chen Qi: "My Originium skills can still do it. Although this secret passage is complicated, I just need to block the key entrance."

"--No."

However, Chen Qi shook his head when he heard this and smiled at Da Ni.

"This secret passage must be blocked, but it must be blocked after Kronin is killed."

"You mean, Kronin will come back?" Da Ni was a little surprised when he heard that, and said to Chen Qi: "No way, he has already betrayed here, how can he come back..."

"——Because he wants the entire Xiosta."

Chen Qi replied calmly, looking at the secret passage that led to the edge of Ursus in the distance, and answered Mudstone's question:

"This man is an ambitious person. If he can't get Xiosta, he will definitely destroy it. But if he can get it, he will definitely find a way to get it."

"Moreover, as you said, this secret passage is complicated. As the main person to implement the plan, Kronin will most likely need to lead the way himself to lead the people of Ursus to Xiosta and swallow him up as a whole."

"However, I can guarantee that even if he reaches a cooperation with someone from Ursus, he cannot mobilize too many Ursus soldiers given his weight."

"1000... No, if there are 500 people coming with him, that's already the upper limit. After all, those nobles with ulterior motives wouldn't take such a risk and trust a guy who is not from Ursus."

"...You're right." Da Ni was silent for a while after hearing that. After a long time, he nodded.

Then, she couldn't help but look at Chen Qi, and said somewhat uncontrollably: "You are amazing to be able to analyze so many things from such little information."

If only you had been in my team when I was displaced, perhaps so many brothers and sisters wouldn't have died then - Da Ni kept this sentence in his heart and didn't say it out loud.

"But even if there are only 500 Ursus soldiers, it's still dangerous. Ursus soldiers are famous for their bravery."

"Rhodes Island shouldn't have many people this time, maybe a dozen or twenty? Even if Xiosta's bodyguards are included... can they really protect this place?"

"...If it were normal times, I wouldn't dare to make this promise. Even if I were to stay on the spot, I wouldn't dare to bet on the explosive power of the Ursus soldiers."

Chen Qi shook his head when he heard this, but it didn't take long before a smile appeared on Chen Qi's face again.

A touch of smile made Da Ni, who was standing beside him, feel a little creepy.

"But if it happens tomorrow, then I dare say that this wave of Ursus people will definitely have no way out."

"Tomorrow, another group of our people will arrive here. I believe that with their help, our vacation in Xiosta will be completely safe."

"The other person? Is he from Rhodes Island?" Da Ni couldn't help but ask.

"Not really." Chen Qi shook his head, then looked at Da Ni standing beside him. He looked up and down at Da Ni's beautiful face, as well as the faintly visible source stone hidden under the bandages, and said:

"Come to think of it, if you're willing, I can introduce you to them. There are mostly infected people there. I believe you'll feel more comfortable there than in Rhodes Island."

"Of course, the conditions there may be a little difficult. If you are willing, I can take you to meet their leader tomorrow."

"The conditions are tough, the infected are organized..."

Da Ni muttered these words to himself, and suddenly he thought of something. He shuddered violently, and his gaze towards Chen Qi changed a little as he said:

"You said, it can't be--"

"——Reunion Movement." X2

Almost at the same time, the voices of Chen Qi and Da Ni overlapped. Da Ni looked at Chen Qi with trembling eyes, and did not say a word for a long time.

At this moment, far away, many people in Chernobyl were so excited that they couldn't sleep that night. They gathered in groups of three or five, discussing the things they had been looking forward to happening tomorrow.

In another place, there seemed to be a few people who were a little distressed about their clothes and the things they carried.

Chapter 39: Tonight, hunt for fun!

In Xiosta, a tourist city, there is no rest time throughout the day. The night may always be more lively than the day, but in fact, it’s just that the people who enjoy it are different.

Xiosta is also very lively during the day, with the beach and waves washing the tired souls of every person who comes here, allowing them to be nourished by the sun and cleansed by the sea breeze; and at night, Xiosta is truly the busiest time.

During the day, everything in Xiosta was the same as usual. The only thing that attracted attention was that several land vehicles full of people stopped at a special parking area outside Xiosta.

For those who are unaware and who usually just vacation on the beach, they just feel that there are suddenly a lot of people wearing strange clothes on the beach of Xiosta, and even on the beach, they are dressed a little tightly.

For example, there is a fat man wearing heavy armor who is keen on making sand sculptures.

There was also a little girl wearing very seductive black stockings, but her whole body was wrapped in a black robe and wearing a gas mask.

There was also a pair of elusive little boys who were always walking back and forth on the beach, but most of the time, wherever the silver-haired boy went, the other one would follow.

Of course, these are just of some concern. The most eye-catching thing is undoubtedly the addition of several beautiful figures on the beach of Xiosta.

A woman with dragon horns, wearing a black swimsuit, looking extremely cold and arrogant, and another white rabbit girl from the Caster race, both of them were extremely eye-catching figures as soon as they appeared on this beach.

However, unlike these men, these beauties did not seem to stay on the beach for very long, which really made many men on the beach feel very sad, but they were also looking forward to seeing these beautiful figures at the upcoming Obsidian Festival superstar concert.

Tonight is definitely the craziest day of the Obsidian Festival in Xiosta City! Most of the people who have gathered here a long time ago are here for this unprecedented concert!
