Ark Traveler, I want to take a day off today too

“It looks like today is the day you guys are going to cause trouble.” Linley nodded his head. He stood on the ground and looked up at the King Slayer who was wearing jeans. Why was he wearing jeans instead of a straight bottom…

Linley sighed and pointed to his ear. “If I’m guessing correctly, you have a radio next to your ear, right? Then can I assume that your leader, Tallulah, is also listening to our conversation right now?”

“Our leader doesn’t have the time to bother with a nobody like you!” The Kingslayer said this before he swung down from the sky with his knife in his hand, intending to kill Linley in one fell swoop.

“Indeed, but only a nobody like me has the right to live. All those famous legends are in their graves!” Linley sneered and dodged the King Slayer’s leap with a sliding step. “And I didn’t expect you to have such a good figure.”

After saying that, he threw a grenade made of light energy at the feet of the King Slayer: "This grenade is real~"

Upon hearing this, the King Slayer lunged forward without hesitation, while Lin Lei pulled out his gun and detonated the bomb in advance: “See you again if we are lucky enough, Miss King Slayer with a nice figure~”

"boom!"

A violent explosion ensued, and a lot of bricks were scattered from the surrounding houses, blocking the original entrance to the alley. More importantly, the Cherinoborg military and police who were already on alert rushed to the site of the explosion.

"What happened to you, Kingslayer?"

“I’m fine. That guy from the foreign forces has an Originium skill similar to W. He tricked me.” Because of Linley’s reminder, the King Slayer only received a few scratches. “Leader, should I continue to follow them?”

"Keep following them. Their target should be somewhere in the central city. How strong is the guy who just stopped you?" Tallulah's voice was unmistakable. "Also, King Slayer, get all the sentries in the city to move. We're about to enter the city!"

"I understand! That guy..." The King Slayer said after a long silence, "His strength is extraordinary, and he didn't seem to have used his full strength in the fight with me."

"Oh~ Then this guy is still worth paying attention to. Please be careful... We will take care of the rest. The fire of revenge of the Reunion Movement will surely burn all of Chernobyl today!"

......In front of the Chernobyl Central City Research Institute......

Dubin was stunned when he saw Team E1. A lazy guy was not in the team. "Amiya, where are the Dredgers?"

"Drejie has gone to stop a member of the Reunion Movement who has been following us." Amiya said softly, "I will lead the team in first. The security measures outside will be left to you, Dobin."

Dubin nodded. “This is what we should do. But Amiya, did you send the coordinates to Linley?”

"Yes." Amiya said as she called her team members to walk towards the interior of the institute, "Doctor...we are here to take you home."

The perspective comes to the other side

At this moment, Linley was just like the Kingslayer before him, shuttling back and forth in the alleys. Behind him were several members of the Integration Movement wearing masks and holding various cold weapons! From time to time, crossbow arrows would fly past his face!

“You’re still using these crossbows when they’re all rusty. You guys in the Reunion really had a rough time.” Linley laughed loudly while turning back and giving a middle finger. “Even your boss can’t catch up with me. You’d better save your energy!”

Linley then performed a triple jump in front of the Reunion assassins. He easily climbed onto the eaves while the assassins unexpectedly released their grappling hooks! “Huh? You guys have this kind of thing?” Linley muttered and threw an explosive flying knife directly at the hook area.

'Di~'

'BOOM~'

Linley clapped his hands in satisfaction as the screams of the falling cars were heard. He could also see the jeeps belonging to Rhodes Island. “They still want to follow me around like this? Wait a few decades. Dubin and the others are really the real deal. They just parked the car at the door like this? Aren’t they afraid that the Ursus army will come and cause trouble for us?”

Half a minute later, Linley landed easily in front of Doberman, and the surrounding snipers and guards drew their weapons and pointed them at him.

“What? Are you guys going to fight among yourselves?” Linley glanced at them and then looked at the serious-looking Dubin. “Or do you think I’m a traitor?”

"I ask you questions..." Dubin didn't intend to pay attention to the other party's smooth talk, "What did you do during the time you disappeared?"

“I went to stop a Reunion cadre.” Linley sighed. “Dobin, use your brain to think about it. Without me, would you have been able to get in? You’re doubting me at a time like this. Aren’t you afraid that Amiya and her team will run into danger down there?”

“Reunion cadre, how are you going to prove it, Dredger?” Dubin narrowed her eyes and looked at Linley, who also looked at her indifferently. “After all, this operation is very important to Rhodes Island. I am afraid that you would leave without saying goodbye.”

“That was a red-haired infected girl. She said her name was King Slayer… Originium skills were either to release smoke or to teleport.” Linley shrugged. “Amiya and Doctor Kal’tsit both agreed. I have the right to act independently.”

"Besides, if you're really that spirited, you might as well point your weapons outside...Chernobog is going to be in chaos today."

Du Bin was shocked when she heard this, but she still maintained her previous state: "How did you know this?"

“The fact that a Reunion cadre would bring so many assassins into the city speaks volumes. The Ursus government may be purged by the Reunion.” Linley narrowed his eyes. “If you have the ability, I suggest you contact Team E3 and Team E4. Don’t…Hmm, do you believe it now?”

"I will naturally find a chance to verify the information you mentioned... If you go down and want to do something bad, Amiya will stop you." Dubin pouted and made way for the research institute. "Since you have dealt with the pursuers, should we..."

“What are you thinking? The entire Chernobyl is full of Reunion scouts. Do you dare to say that no one saw such a big car?” Linley rolled his eyes. “But it’s true that they won’t come to trouble us in the short term... You are the chief instructor of Rhodes Island, so can you please use your brain a little bit?”

After saying this, Linley swaggered towards the basement of the research institute. “Doberman, I know you must want to beat me up right now, but unfortunately I can go on vacation after completing this mission~ Hahahaha, ouch, why is the staircase broken!”

Dubin immediately suppressed his smile and directed the E2 team to deploy the defense: "Humph, you are so mean~"

012. Doctor

Linley felt as if his coccyx was cracked. “Damn it! I’m past the age of a fragile college student, why is it still so painful?” He rubbed his buttocks and stood up unsteadily.

Blue lights and various research instruments were placed on both sides of the road, but the collapsed reception desk and flickering lights told Lin Lei one thing - this research institute had been abandoned or sealed off for some time.

“But I didn’t see any seals or anything like that at the entrance of the institute. Why is there no one in this institute?” Linley muttered. At this time, the sound of metal colliding and Amiya’s panicked voice could be heard from the front.

"Doc...the doctor is suffering from hypothermia now!"

"Don't worry, Amiya... inject 10cc of hexamethylenetetramine, and push it intravenously... the doctor's condition is very unstable right now... we have to move him out of this sarcophagus first." A medical operator comforted the little rabbit beside him.

Linley said softly, “It seems I’ve come at the right time.” He walked over to Amiya and looked at the opened sarcophagus. Rather than a sarcophagus, this thing was more like a high-tech single-person refrigerator.

“Mr. Linley! You’re back!” Amiya subconsciously called out Linley’s real name. “Did you encounter any danger along the way?”

“Remember what I told you before?” Linley frowned and shone a beam of white light, which went directly into the body of the unconscious doctor. “The one who had been following us was a member of the Reunion Movement. I had a fight with her, but I didn’t want to fight her. She seemed to have other missions, and following outsiders like us was probably just one of them.”

“Did you fight with her?” Amiya turned her head and blinked at Lin Lei. Unfortunately, Lin Lei’s attention was all on the doctor who was not in good health, so he did not notice the little rabbit’s gaze.

“Well, her name is King Slayer, and she moves very fast. Ordinary guards may not be able to stop her. I also encountered her assassination team on the road, but I shook them off.” Linley said as he steadied the hand of the medical operator beside him. “Why do I feel that the doctor’s physical condition is quite bad now?”

“These are all complications caused by long periods of inactivity and hibernation. In addition, the doctor had already suffered from a serious Originium disease before entering the ‘Home Physiological Repair Device’ for treatment… so.” Amiya immediately gave Linley, who was medically illiterate, a scientific explanation. At the same time, she also asked curiously, “The white light you just threw at the doctor seems to have a good effect on his condition.”

“Just think of it as a special Originium skill. It can improve the recovery ability of injured people to a certain extent.” Linley touched Amiya’s head. He could also feel the tension and anxiety in the girl’s heart. “Are you nervous?”

"Well... although Dr. Kal'tsit and I have already guessed the worst, I am still very worried... the doctor will not wake up..."

“Then hold her hand... and tell her you’re always by her side.” Linley stroked his chin and gently patted Amiya’s back. “But I didn’t expect the doctor to look like this.”

Unlike the middle-aged scholar that Linley had imagined, the doctor looked quite young: his chestnut hair, which was like a waterfall, was now slightly dry, and his pale and thin face was like fragile porcelain. His delicate facial features were now tightly huddled together because of pain.

Even so, Linley could still sense the melancholy of this doctor from her brows, and this was the first time he understood what a ‘sickly beauty’ meant.

"The second dimension is really better," the time traveler sighed secretly, "I didn't see such people in the world I visited before. Those who died of the Black Death or some other infectious diseases in the Middle Ages didn't have such good-looking faces."

Amiya also followed Linley’s advice. She stretched out her hands and carefully held the doctor’s hands in her palms: “Doctor, I’m here...Amiya will be with you until the moment you wake up completely!”

I don’t know if the little rabbit’s words reached the doctor’s heart, but the doctor, who had been motionless, subconsciously grabbed Amiya’s hand.

"Doctor... can she hear me?!" Amiya shouted excitedly, while the medical operator beside her nodded.

"Amiya, the doctor's condition is improving! Hemostats!"

But at this moment, a feeling like instinct flashed through Linley’s mind, and a series of pictures like hell appeared before his eyes: streets melted by flames, Ursus civilians crying and shouting about being executed, Rhodes Island operators fighting to the death...

“Shh… This feeling is really bad…” Linley shook his head and said directly to Amiya: “Amiya, if the doctor wakes up, please apologize for me… I have to go upstairs to take care of some things first.”

“I understand. Please be careful along the way…” Amiya held the doctor’s hand and looked at Linley very seriously. “Don’t forget, you still have a seven-day vacation after this mission!”

Linley could only nod his head and turn back to the passage they had come from. “What a shame… I can’t witness the Doctor’s awakening, but maybe I can take this opportunity to see more of the Reunion cadres.”

......Chernobyl urban area.......

About half an hour after Lin Lei entered the lower level of the research institute, dozens of explosions occurred in the outer urban area of Chernobyl, from food trucks to sewer pipes to warehouses where goods were stored. These explosion areas all had one thing in common: they were all major traffic arteries in the outer urban area of Chernobyl!

The disguised members of the Reunion Movement successfully joined up with the main force of the Reunion Movement that was still outside the city by taking advantage of the smoke and ruins of the explosion! The first to enter the city were a group of homeless people and scavengers with extremely strong bodies, covered with Originium crystals, and distracted eyes!

These monsters covered with Originium crystal clusters were beaten half to death by the Ursus police who only had riot shields and batons in their hands at the first sight! Behind these monsters was a white-haired little boy with a cane and a strange smile on his face. He waved the cane in his hand and said:

"Go! Go! Go and turn those guys into our companions!"

013. It is well known that what netizens say is true

Dubin looked at Linley who had returned to the first floor of the research institute and asked in surprise, “Why are you here?”

“I’m not a medical operator, and I don’t know how to treat things, so why not come here?” Linley shrugged. “By the way, do you have any extra radios? Give me one. I need to go out for a while.”

Unlike before, Dubin did not ask Linley what he was doing. Instead, she took out a spare radio and headset from her backpack and said, “There is only one spare set. Be careful when you use it!”

“Yes, and thank you.” Linley nodded and put the radio and headset inside the lining of his coat. “By the way, did the previous advance team send out any more intelligence?”

"No...half an hour ago, the channel from the advance team went silent, and there is no news from Lin Guang either." The Rhodes Island instructor shook his head, "Remember to report to me if you encounter them."

“If I can come across them.” Linley said as he walked out of the research institute. As he walked, he wondered where the primary conflict zone between the Reunion Movement and the Ursus government would be. “If we have to fight, where would we start from?”

The forces that the Integration Movement sent into Chernobyl before were definitely not their main forces. Now there are military and police blocking the vicinity of the slums, and no relevant information has been received from the E3 and E4 teams... So the slums must not be the primary entry point for that group of radical elements.

As Linley thought about this, he climbed onto the eaves of a nearby house. At this moment, several explosions suddenly sounded from the outside! In an instant, smoke filled the outer ring of Chernobyl, mixed with the cries and roars of the crowd!

Without a second’s hesitation, Linley ran across the rooftop. How fast was a Guardian Hunter running at full speed? No one knew, because the other Guardians had amphibious jet motorcycles called Quick Sparrows that they could use when traveling.

If Lin Lei had a Sparrow, he could show you a rooftop drift, but unfortunately he only had two legs and no equipment or props to increase his speed. And every time Lin Lei jumped over a roof, the cries of the civilians got closer to him.

However, Lin Lei did not intend to act as a chivalrous thief. After all, he was not Batman and did not have such a strong sense of justice.

“These are just scattered soldiers, not the main force of the integration movement… We have to keep moving forward.” Just as he was about to continue his triple jump, a crossbow arrow shot out from a residential building hundreds of meters away, heading for Lin Lei’s chest! Although there was no sign of this attack, it did not mean that he could not react. Lin Lei directly threw out a flying knife to shoot down the crossbow arrow that had been flying for a long time.

“A sniper from the Reunion Movement? Never mind. I don’t have time to deal with you guys right now!” Rather than just rushing up to find the sniper and getting killed, Linley thought it was more important to continue looking for the main force of the Reunion Movement. After all, he could chase the sniper or he could run away. Even if he caught up with him, it would be a bit of a loss.

Thinking this, Linley drew out his thorn and fired three shots at the residential building! The bullets infused with light energy penetrated the reinforced concrete directly, leaving three clearly visible holes in the dilapidated residential building.

The sniper who had ambushed Linley had already begun reporting, and the person he was reporting to was none other than the leader of the Reunion Movement, Tallulah.

"Chief... I saw the foreigner that the King Slayer mentioned, but my sniping failed. Should I continue?" A black-haired Phidias boy holding a large crossbow reported his situation expressionlessly.

'bang bang bang'

"Chief, let me add one more thing...I have been discovered."

"Then evacuate first, Faust... and reunite with your Phantom Crossbowmen to help the King Slayer complete her assassination mission."

"understand!"

"Also, Faust....why don't you continue to call me sister like Mephistopheles?" Tallulah's voice was filled with sadness and sorrow, "Do you think my actions are too extreme?"

"No... You are our leader, and I am no longer the child who knows nothing... It is a bit inappropriate to continue calling you sister." Faust hesitated for a moment and finally answered. In fact, there was another reason why he did not call 'Tallulah' sister:

That is, Faust felt that the strong and cheerful sister Tallulah in the past had changed. She became bloodthirsty and cruel and more and more like a monster. Although she was still nice to her own people in the Reunion Movement... he still felt that something was wrong, and this change also affected Mephistopheles, who regarded Tallulah as a god.

This made Faust's childhood sweetheart, whose mind was already a little twisted, even crazier. However, Faust had no other ideas and could only accept the mission they sent him to do. "I hope Ino...he can control his herd well."

Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. Mephisto did not intend to restrain his herd. These infected people who were transformed by his Originium skills had more violent attack capabilities and lower IQs, which was also seen by Lin Lei on the roof.

“That little white-haired boy has a terrible problem controlling his facial expressions~” Linley muttered as he lit another cigarette, “It has a healing effect but will cause one to lose their sanity? What is this? A Terran version of a genetic mutation device?” Not sure if it was his own illusion, but Linley now felt that these wanderers carrying sticks and doing odd jobs were no different from the group of genetically mutated orcs.

“How about just shooting him right here?” Lin Lei thought as he raised the thorns. If there was no defense, just one bullet would be enough to send this master of facial expression to the Naihe Bridge.

Just because Mephisto didn't notice it didn't mean that others didn't notice it. A new Reunion Movement force had entered the pass that had been controlled by the Reunion Movement. They had only one feature - an extremely thick shield and almost identical heavy armor! And walking in front of them was a Wendigo wearing a mask and holding a shield!

The Wendigo had naturally spotted Linley standing on the roof and threw the spear on his back at him! Linley did not hesitate and fired nine shots in the direction of Mephisto before dodging to the other side of the roof!

"boom!"

The Wendigo threw what looked like a missile. The terrifying impact flattened the rooftop where Linley was standing! At the same time, he pulled Mephisto, who was still happily driving the herd, behind him. All nine bullets hit the Wendigo's shield!

Linley looked at the ruined house and smacked his lips. “Sure enough, no matter which world it is, what the silly netizen said is true. The Reunion Movement really does have a Wendigo.”

014. White Rabbit

Mephisto seemed to realize something belatedly and asked, "Patriot, was there an assassin just now?"

"Yes." The patriot said concisely, "You...don't...stay...too far." His throat, like a broken bellows, split a complete sentence into several words, as if something was stuck in his throat.

The white-haired boy nodded and then he showed a sinister smile: "The herd, go find that guy for me, and then I will tear him into pieces!" Mephisto stretched out his cane and gently pointed at the place that had just been blasted into ruins by the Patriots. A dozen extremely strong Originium disease infected people staggered over there.

If Linley had not seen them tear off the head of the Ursus military police just now, he would have thought that these infected people were just some ordinary drunkards. However, being strong does not mean that these guys have such high physical fitness!

The moment these host scavengers approached Lin Lei, he opened fire. Every time the handheld cannon roared, a scavenger would fall down, and every time a scavenger fell, a green spirit would float out from his body and merge into the thorns.

The souls devoured by the thorns would directly replenish the already limited ammunition, so as long as Linley could kill an enemy with one shot, the weapon in his hand would be a perpetual motion machine. Unfortunately, the Reunion Movement was not only made up of these brainless "mad orcs", but when those shield guards holding large shields and dressed similarly to the Patriots slowly approached, Linley chose to run.

Are you kidding me? Are you using bullets to scrape these guys? Lin Lei had neither grenades nor rocket launchers, and he couldn’t use his precious light energy on these soldiers! Just as he was about to run away, a stream of cold air instantly appeared on the street, and several ice spikes appeared directly beside Lin Lei!

“What the hell, what the hell is this?” Linley did a backflip to avoid the icicle that suddenly appeared under his feet. Then, a group of Reunion members wearing white clothes and emitting cold air slowly approached him.

"Don't run... You have no way to escape." A slightly hoarse and indifferent female voice slowly came from behind the group of white-robed warlocks, "Don't resist, I will let you die without pain..."

Linley stiffened his body and turned to look at the person who had spoken. She was a white rabbit wearing a white cloak. The scar on her nose and her gray pupils that were full of fighting spirit all revealed one message: she was a warrior, not a vase.

I wonder if Amiya will have a figure like her when she grows up. But isn’t this girl’s body temperature a little too low? Linley thought to himself and raised his hands: “Can I ask a question before I die?”

In response, several ice spikes appeared out of nowhere, and the cold air intensified around him. The walls of the street were covered with white frost. Linley did not hesitate to activate the light energy around his body, and his feet, which had already been connected to the ground, crushed the ice!

'Bang, bang, bang'
