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

The icicles pierced the wall along with the cigarette in Linley’s mouth. “Why are you still able to move? Shouldn’t your body be frozen?” The white rabbit muttered to himself. “Even if your Originium technique is related to fire… you shouldn’t be able to move so flexibly.”

Unlike the white rabbit who looked shocked, Linley dusted off his coat and said, “It’s obvious that you’ve been frozen by those Shadow Warlocks in the Crucible. Your temperature is just a drop in the ocean… But can you give me one of my cigarettes as compensation?”

As he spoke, he threw the flying knife in his hand. Before the flying knife made of light energy could reach the white rabbit's face, it was blocked by an ice wall that rose from the spot. However, as the price of blocking the knife, the ice wall melted into a pool of water at a speed visible to the naked eye.

“Also, White Rabbit…what’s your name…have you ever considered coming to our company for treatment later…I feel like your Originium disease is getting a bit serious!” Linley drew out his dagger and dodged the icicles released by the ice wizards as if he were doing gymnastics, while the distance between him and White Rabbit was getting closer and closer!

"Dang~"

The dagger that Linley swung was blocked by the white rabbit with a similar action, and the ice spike in the white rabbit’s left hand was caught by Linley’s hand. The two of them fought in the alley at a distance of almost face to face.

Linley could even feel every breath of white frost from the people around him, and the warlocks behind the White Rabbit stopped casting spells for fear of hurting their leader, and several of them stopped the shield guards who were about to move forward.

"Dang~dang~dang~"

Whenever the white rabbit tried to distance itself from Linley, Linley would always rely on his speed advantage to get close again. The two daggers collided no less than ten times in a few seconds. “If you keep going like this, you’ll be the first to collapse.” Linley stared at the white rabbit intently, and the white rabbit responded with a warrior’s gaze without fear—full of fighting spirit and passion.

"Then let's go together, Assassin."

“Assassin? I don’t think that killing a perverted murderer can be called an assassin.” Linley grinned, “It should be called a knight. And you guys in the Reunion Movement are really not picky. You’re willing to accept people like this?”

"Because he is also infected... and this is a necessary evil." The white rabbit was silent for a long time before slowly speaking, "And if you want to know other people's names... shouldn't you report your own name first?"

“If the necessary evil you’re talking about is to kill all the civilians… then your organization is rotten to the core!” Linley growled and swung the dagger in his hand, then dodged to the other party’s side.

“Then wait until the infected have a place on this continent before judging us!” The white rabbit ducked its head to avoid Linley’s dagger, and at the same time grabbed the Originium staff at its waist that looked like an infusion device with its left hand. “And you, turn into an ice sculpture again!”

One by one, icicles that were much thicker than before instantly covered the entire street in front of the White Rabbit! The entire corridor turned into a "crystal hell" that exuded a chilling cold. And Lin Lei had disappeared, perhaps he was sealed in these icicles? The White Rabbit thought so, now she only needed to reach out and touch the assassin's body lightly, and it would shatter into pieces like these icicles.

"Also... my name is Frost Star..." As she said this, she tapped the icicles lightly with her index finger, and all the icicles shattered at the same time, but it was not known whether it was Frost Star's illusion that she did not see the assassin's body.

“What a nice name! You can call me... Dredger...” Linley appeared on the eaves of a nearby house, and at the same time he threw a healing grenade at Froststar. “It is our good fortune to see you again, Miss Froststar... I don’t know when the judgment of the Reunion will come... but the judgment of that fellow will come soon!”

015. Cockroach Bully

"Yelena...why...didn't you...take action just now?" The Patriot slowly walked over and asked his adopted daughter word by word.

"The use of the Originium technique just now made me feel a little uncomfortable..." Frost Star responded to him calmly, "Old man, maybe it's a good thing that you let that murderer die just now." Feeling unwell was naturally a lie. If Frost Star had used Originium magic like this in the past, she would naturally feel uncomfortable or even faint.

But since the white light entered her body, she felt warm all over... like soaking in warm water, and the cramps and pain that should have appeared seemed to disappear. "A thank you for telling you my name... that's really a bit expensive." Frost Star stroked her chest and sighed. She was not the kind of person who would repay kindness with enmity, so naturally there was no reason for her to continue to lead the Yeti team to attack him.

"He... is... necessary... for now." The Patriot said slowly, and he left after confirming that Froststar was not injured. As the elite and backbone of the Integration Movement, he and his Snowfield Guerrillas still had a lot of work to do.

"Is it necessary? Now I regret agreeing to let him and Faust join... and I regret coaxing him to sleep at that time." Frost Star said coldly, and then she clapped her hands, and the snow monster teams that were standing there immediately surrounded her.

"Big sister...are you okay? I saw the white light thrown by Drijer went straight into your body..."

"Big Bear, are you feeling a little dizzy now? I'm fine, no need for you to worry." Froststar glanced at one of them unhappily. Even though they were all wearing masks, White Rabbit could still recognize who each of them was. "Continue with the mission of the Integration Movement, but be careful."

"But Big Sister is in much better condition this time, and even her complexion is much better!" Unfortunately, the snow monsters did not shut up. They walked in twos and threes, whispering to each other. "At first, I thought that the guy named Deruijie was going to do something bad to Big Sister, but I didn't expect that the white light would have this effect."

"Then let's go easy on him next time if we run into him...Otherwise, we won't be able to explain ourselves later..."

"Stop talking, the big sister is going to beat someone up! You don't want to practice more later, do you?"

...on the rooftop of a building on the outer ring of Chernobyl...

Scout looked at Lin Lei who was smoking behind him and said, "Drejie, how did you get here and connect to this channel? Shouldn't you be at the research institute?"

“I got the right to act independently from Amiya and Doctor Kal’tsit.” Linley twisted the cigarette in his mouth and put it between his ears and walked over slowly: “You saw it, those guys from the Reunion Movement.”

"Well...but what we need to do now is to provide cover, not to go to war with another infected organization." Scout put away his 'sniper rifle' and said calmly.

“What if this group of extremist infected people want to plunge the entire Chernobyl into hell?” Linley walked to the rooftop and looked at the city area that was already filled with smoke. “By then, we might not be able to leave even if we want to…”

"You mean beheading in advance?" Scout took off his sunglasses. His eyes, which had witnessed the rise and fall of the Tower of Babel, looked extremely deep and wise. "I have to say you've convinced me a little bit."

“It’s more like interference than beheading.” Linley shook his finger. “The Reunion Movement is not a single entity. Their attitudes towards civilians are also different…”

"But the hostility towards Ursus is the same." Scout continued: "So you want my team to deal with those who indiscriminately kill innocent civilians?"

“No… The moment the sniper was discovered, his life began to count down.” Linley shook his head. “I understood this principle a long time ago. I need you to point out the locations of those Reunion cadres and leaders… I will disrupt them before the Doctor wakes up…”

"Can you... do it alone?"

“With your help, we can. If you find a target, use the radio to notify me... This is my frequency band, you and your team should remember it.” Linley took out his radio, “Don’t notify Teams E3 and E4... But if things get really bad, we’ll have to tell you.”

"It sounds like you are our leader." Scout put on his sunglasses and said with a strange look on his face.

“I’m just a clerk who works hard and honestly every day… If I could, I would never want to go out on a mission in my lifetime.” Linley said as he jumped off the rooftop. “It’s a pity that Amiya agreed to my request for leave, and it was a paid leave.”

"Tsk tsk...it does sound tempting." Scout smacked his lips, shouldered his weapon and walked downstairs. At the same time, he issued orders to other team members in different areas: "Everyone, form groups of three and keep an eye on those members of the Integration Movement who want to cause trouble. If you have any information, send their location to this frequency..."

"Remember...Hide well and don't expose your position..."

"understand!"

......Chernobyl ghetto....

"Garson... why do we have to go in from this place." A beautiful Sarkaz girl with white hair, red eyes and horns on her head said with a little dissatisfaction. In her hand was not the crossbow and big sword commonly seen by Sarkaz mercenaries, but a grenade launcher.

"This is what Tallulah meant. If you are dissatisfied with Drake's arrangement... you can go directly to her, W." The leader of the Sarkaz mercenaries named Garson said indifferently, "And it doesn't matter where we enter from... just kill them as they say."

"Tsk..." W pouted in dissatisfaction. I am a bully... but at least I am not that cowardly... "And according to the news from the King Slayer... this group of foreign forces that suddenly appeared in Chernobyl... should be Rhodes Island..."

"But as the heirs of the Tower of Babel... are you really qualified to inherit the legacy of the Tower of Babel?" The Sarkaz mercenary who also once worked for the Tower of Babel thought so and raised the grenade in his hand and fired at the Ursus position in front of him.

"I'm in a good mood today. You guys are unlucky~"

Accompanied by bursts of screams, W walked into the city happily: "If I can kill that bastard Garson... I'll be even happier." Thinking of this, she fired another grenade and hid in the alley in the smoke.

Just when she was about to load a grenade and continue bombing, a gun was pointed at the back of her head, "Huh?!" When did this extra person appear?

"Since you are in line with our XP policy, I will give you a chance... I ask questions, and you answer them."

016. Is your mind filled with only yellow garbage?

“Don’t even think about looking back, Miss Sarkaz with a sexy body.” Linley pointed a gun at the back of W’s head with one hand while taking the grenade launcher from W’s hand with the other hand. “Grenade launcher… And don’t even think about using the explosives in your hand, beautiful lady… I just want to get some words out of you.”

"A trick?" W showed an awkward but polite smile on his face. "If you shoot, the other Sarkaz mercenaries will find you... and you won't be able to escape then."

“Can’t run away? Let me tell you first… If you detonate it like this… You will most likely be the only one to die, so I suggest you put the detonator back in your hand… Also, where did you get it from?” As he spoke, Linley looked at the black pantyhose under W’s black and red miniskirt: “Ma… Masaka?”

"I don't know where you're looking at... Mr. Gunner... but I feel like your gaze is very rude." A few black lines appeared on W's smooth forehead: "What do you want to ask... Ask quickly... Can I leave after you ask?"

"Of course you can. After all, although you are dressed quite uniquely, I can tell that you are not the leader among your group."

"I always feel like you are being sarcastic to me again..."

“No, no, no, this is just the survival instinct of some small employees.” Linley retorted, “Then tell me, how many members of your Reunion Movement have come to Chernobog?”

"Basically all of them~" W rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "Is this the only question you can ask...Rhodes Island..."

“I haven’t told you where I’m from yet… You’re worthy of being a mercenary from Kazdel… Your guess is pretty accurate.” Linley wasn’t surprised. He glanced at the group of Sarkaz mercenaries who were still reveling and asked slowly:

"Almost all... that means some are not here, but those that are not here are not the point... let's talk about those that are here..."

W frowned slightly: "Aren't you surprised that I revealed your identity?"

"Now it's my question and you answer session...Ms. Cockroach..."

"Believe it or not, I will just blow myself up, and then you can only capture some other Sarkaz mercenaries to ask questions."

"Then what should I call you... Allahu Akbar?"

"It doesn't sound like a good word, W... Just call me W."

“Okay, Miss W… Please continue… If the situation wasn’t so bad, I would definitely like to have a drink with you at the bar.” Linley continued with a smile, “Also, Miss W, please continue.”

"Mephisto and his herd, Faust and his phantom crossbowmen, Kingslayer and her assassination team, Patriot and his shield guerrillas, Froststar and her snow monster team... The rest are just some ordinary infected warriors... Oh, and us, did you see that guy? The big guy with a black sword and a big shield is our leader Garson."

The herd should be the guys with crystal clusters growing on their bodies, and the phantom crossbowman should be the one who attacked me before... So it seems that I am almost gathering all the elite members of the Reunion Movement to come to Chernobog on this trip.

"Ms. W, you seem to be a little dissatisfied when you mention your leader... Do you have any ideas?"

"Help me kill that guy, how about I be your accomplice? As long as he's dead, with my prestige and merits..." W said with a smile, and there was no trace of anger in her tone, "You can put some on my body..."

"Vibrator? Vibrator, or pull..."

"Is that all you have in your fucking mind?" W gritted his teeth, "All the rest is impossible, think of something else..."

“Uh… that’s not it… but I can definitely help you get rid of Garson… and there’s only one thing you need to do.” Linley put down his gun and threw the grenade launcher at W’s feet. “That’s when we retreat from Rhodes Island…” Before he could finish his words, W did a roundhouse kick at Linley!

Linley directly extended his hand to block the kick, and W was able to see his face clearly: “It doesn’t look bad, but I really want to rip your mouth apart.”

“What a coincidence, isn’t this… Miss W, who is also smooth-talking.” Lin Lei said as he blocked another set of punches from W. “Nice to meet you… You can call me… Dredger.” Then, just as W was about to take out her grenade launcher, Lin Lei once again thrust his hand cannon at her forehead:

"Give Rhodes Island a break when he leaves... This shouldn't be a difficult task for the future Sarkaz mercenary leader, right? By the way, I'd like to remind you that there are no corrugated grenades here... At this distance, your grenades are not qualified to explode."

W immediately raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "You are so confident... do you want to try it?"

“Then let’s forget about it.” Linley raised his hands high. “It sounds like we have reached a deal.”

"Then please act quickly... Mr. Dredger!" W immediately put away his grenade, "If you want me to hold back my firepower... then forget it... I'm a mercenary."

“Try not to hurt any civilians by mistake…” Linley sighed, then, under W’s gaze, he jumped onto the roof and disappeared.

W muttered to herself: "With this kind of mobility, it's no wonder he can suddenly appear behind me... Never mind... I'm not at a disadvantage anyway." She reloaded the grenade and returned to the street: "I'm not in a good mood now. It's your bad luck!"

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

A series of explosions made Garson, who was cleaning up in another alley, frown: "That woman... is really hard to control... If possible, I have to let this girl die here." The mercenary leader thought so and swung the sword in his hand amid screams.

"I have to report to His Highness Tracy later...whether it's W or that Drake..."

Unfortunately, Garson was interrupted before he could finish his soliloquy, and what interrupted his thoughts were nine consecutive gunshots!

“Forget about reporting... Garson... Someone is offering money to buy your life... They are willing to pay..." Linley slowly walked out from the shadows. As he spoke, he was reloading his Thorn. The last round of shooting had directly shattered the shield on Garson's left hand. This composite material armor was nothing compared to the bullets condensed from light energy.

"Who are you?" Garson threw away the shield handle in his hand and held it with both hands. He looked at the man holding a gun but without any characteristics of Sakta or Sarkaz.

“I’m Mr. Jiaqian’s younger brother, Mr. Work Overtime.” Linley grinned and pulled the trigger again!

017. All kinds of martial arts, this is a gunpowder game

The caliber of the Thorn cannon was quite large, but the bullet still had trouble penetrating the armor of the fully-armed mercenary in front of him. Linley could only pull the trigger while keeping a distance from Garson.

"You are not Sakota... You think this weak bullet can penetrate my armor?" Garson grinned, and the black sword in his hand shone with a strange purple light: "Die!"

"boom!"

This blow was powerful enough to cut through the armor plates of an ordinary tank, but Linley dodged it by leaning sideways.

“This one can’t penetrate… then what about this one?” Linley said as he threw a healing grenade at Garson. “Uh… sorry, I threw it at the wrong person…”

“Are you begging for mercy, kid?” Garson raised his sword and continued to slash without hesitation! Meanwhile, Linley threw another stick-shaped grenade under his feet and leaped backwards with both hands on the ground!

Garson was lost in thought as he looked at the red, flashing stick under his feet: "Why does this thing look so similar to the explosives that woman W often uses..."

Then a loud bang echoed throughout the alley, and the houses on both sides and the ground were shattered!

"boom!!"

Gunpowder Game, this is the most explosive grenade from the hunters, but because its explosion intensity and explosion range are too huge for ordinary people, Lin Lei rarely uses this high-intensity force. However, facing an enemy wearing heavy armor, this kind of Chengdu explosive may be suitable.

“Ahem…” Linley coughed as he looked at Garson who was already pinned under the bricks. “Are you still breathing, Mr. Garson…”

"Who... are you... ahem...?" Garson asked tremblingly. He now felt that his lower body had completely lost all feeling. "There is no one like you in Chernobyl's army..."

“I’ve already told you… I’m Mr. Jiaqian’s younger brother, Mr. Work Overtime… Why don’t you believe me?” Linley took out a thorn and pointed it at Garson’s head. The commotion here also alerted the members of the Integration Movement on the street, including W, who had just made a deal with him.

“What are you going to do to the captain? Stop it!” W said as he pulled out the grenade in his hand at a speed nearly five times slower than before and aimed it at Lin Lei. “3!! 2!! 1!! I’m going to hit him~”

At this time, Garson finally reacted: "Bitch!!! You betrayed..."

"boom!"

"boom!"

Linley sent Garson away just before W fired the grenade. He also shook his finger at him and mouthed, “See you next time~”

"This man..." W sighed, and turned to her colleagues who had just arrived because of the explosion: "Our leader is dead because of the assassin... Now I am the number one in the Sarkaz Mercenary Group!"

At the same time, Linley’s radio finally rang. It was Scout: “Did that woman just now… reach a treaty with you?”

“It sounds like you know her?” Linley climbed over a wall and ran wildly on it: “At the Tower of Babel?”

"When she was in the Tower of Babel...she worked for Theresa, the then Lord of the Tower of Babel...I didn't expect to see her again in a place like this after the fall of the Tower of Babel..." Scout sighed, "What did this woman talk to you about?"

"I helped her kill the current leader of the Sarkaz mercenaries. She will facilitate the evacuation of Rhodes Island later..."

"What if she changes her mind? Even if I know her... it doesn't mean this Sarkaz is still the Sarkaz I know, and she has always been loyal to Theresa, not the entire Tower of Babel."
