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

"The exit is just ahead. Rhodes Island's reinforcements will be here soon!" Doberman shouted excitedly, "If we work harder, we can get out of this damn place!"

But at this time, a group of extremely tall Sarkaz mercenaries, each of whom was about the same size as ACE, blocked this necessary road, and in front of them was a Sarkaz woman who kept throwing explosive packs:

"It's time to wake up from the daydream of leaving Chernobyl so easily~"

Amiya patted Dr. Jane's back soothingly and then stepped forward: "Do you still want to fight... the Integration Movement..."

"Don't be like that. I don't get along with that dragon lady... We are here because our work is done." W waved his hand, "You may not know me, but I know the guy next to you."

"But you are not with..."

"Are you talking about the Man with the Golden Gun?" W was still smiling. "The agreement with him is one thing... After all, he helped me a lot, but I have a personal grudge against the man next to you~"

"Hand her over, and I can have my mercenaries let you go..." She shouted coldly, "Otherwise, every one of you will die here!"

"We won't hand the doctor over to you..." Amiya shook her head and refused, while Lin Guang raised his shield and hammer and walked to the front of the team:

"Before we start fighting, can I ask you why you want to find the doctor so much?"

"Of course I have questions to ask her!" W said and raised his grenade launcher!

"Bomb!"

024. Doctor, the car is ready!

Faust looked at the two arrows in his chest, then raised his head and looked at Scout who was slowly walking towards him:

"Are you here to take me away?"

"That's right, Scout, an elite operator from Rhodes Island." He put one hand in his pocket and held a crossbow in the other. "Why did you attack us so desperately? Your sniping skills and command level are not on the same level."

"Reunion cadre, Faust..." The young man from the Phidia tribe forced a bitter smile while enduring the pain: "Because this is a revenge, Rhodes Island...you killed Ino...so you must pay an equal price!"

Faust roared in a voice that was almost a roar, while Scout remained silent until the young man, who was only a few steps away from death, calmed down. Then he spoke:

"But, your Ino... that Mephisto has killed many innocent people, hasn't he?"

"Yeah, so I often wonder if this is retribution." Faust laughed bitterly: "I heard from the leader that... you... Rhodes Island is an organization that saves the infected... If... you still want to save those... innocent infected..."

"Then go and stop our leader... the Tallulah who no longer looks like Tallulah." After saying this, Faust closed his eyes, and his soul returned to the place where he and Ino first met.

"I will... Also, good night kid." Scout squatted down and pulled out the two arrows from Faust's heart and lungs, and gently closed the boy's eyes.

After doing all this, he did not rush to get up but continued: "When did you come here, Deruijie?"

“When you squatted down to talk to him,” Linley said, throwing his cigarette butt to the ground and stepping on it. “I saw W and her mercenaries fighting with Amiya and the others, and I didn’t see you among them, so I turned around to look for you.”

"It sounds like I'm the slowest? Where's Tallulah? Was she killed by you?" Scout touched his chin and stood up, "As expected..."

“Stop daydreaming, okay? How can I defeat that walking human disaster… and I can’t say for sure whether that girl is still Tallulah.” Linley rolled his eyes in annoyance. “In any case, let’s retreat first. It’s better to let Kal’tsit know about this.”

If I can recover to my peak state, I can fight this fire-breathing dragon lady. As Linley thought about this, he jumped off the house and ran with Scout towards the area where Rhodes Island and the Sarkaz mercenaries were fighting.

"I wonder if W had any conflicts with the Doctor when they were at the Tower of Babel. Why do I feel like this sexy Sarkaz girl is staring at Amiya and the Doctor?"

"Haven't you reached an agreement with her? Why is she still blowing up?" Scout was shocked. "Let's go over and help!"

“Maybe her mentality changed after she saw the Doctor? But I can tell she didn’t kill me and she still has an ACE. Don’t worry.” Linley patted the man’s shoulder. “And take a look. You’ve run out of arrows.”

"I also have this!" Scout said, holding up his crossbow, "Although I haven't used it yet."

“Scout, I’m not saying anything bad about you, but do you really only carry ordinary crossbow arrows with your hand crossbow?” Linley looked at him as if he were a fool. “You have the nerve to carry this thing with you without any poison arrows or dragon breath arrows?”

When I was still a lantern zombie, luckily the new hunter subconsciously shot an arrow from the Dragon Breath Crossbow at my feet and detonated the high-explosive gunpowder barrel next to me, otherwise, who knows how I would have completed the task given to me by the system.

"Your suggestions are very constructive." Scout nodded. "I'll ask Klothir to help me modify it when I get back. Also, do you really not need to fix your mask? I feel like it's about to break."

“The engineering department can’t repair it with its current capabilities. I’ve asked before.” Linley sighed and took off his mask. “Besides, I wouldn’t dare to gamble my life with that fire-breathing dragon without this thing.”

"It looks like you won the bet."

By the time Scout and Linley reached the exit, the battle between Rhodes Island and the Sarkaz mercenaries had ended. The moment Amiya saw Linley, she immediately rushed over to him: “Mr. Linley! I’m so glad you’re okay!”

Linley rolled his eyes in pain from the bunny’s head impact. “Amiya, can you be more careful next time you hug me? It was nothing serious, but I feel like I’m going to get internal injuries from this headbutt.”

"Ah?! Sorry... the other Reunion cadre named W has already left with her men." The little rabbit opened her eyes wide and blinked at him, "The advance team responsible for reconnaissance and everyone else are fine except for some minor injuries."

This is all thanks to you! Amiya thought to herself, but now is not the time to have a celebration banquet. Linley stroked the girl’s soft hair and looked at Doberman: “Has our support not arrived yet?”

"It's estimated to take another five minutes." Dubin said softly, contrary to his usual stern attitude: "Also, thank you for your efforts."

“It’s nothing… After all, I got paid.” Linley patted the girl’s back with a grin, then he looked at the sickly beauty standing in the Rhodes Island Operator Center: “Nice to meet you, Doctor… You can call me… uh, Dredger.”

The doctor walked over shakily and shook hands with Linley. “Nice to meet you. I’m Doctor Jian. According to Amiya, I’m your frontline commander and doctor of neurology.”

“He’s the doctor after all, so it’s easy to talk…” Lin Lei still maintained a smile. Although I haven’t played Arknights for a long time and I don’t remember the plot very clearly...but I remember Amiya’s words clearly.

"Doctor, you can't rest yet~"

This word, which can be called a worker's nightmare, has traveled through countless worlds and time and space and is engraved in Lin Lei's extremely complex DNA. I can't wait to see the birth of a person who dies from overwork! And I want to enjoy my hard-earned vacation, Doctor!

For some reason, Jane shivered as if a cold wind had filled her brain. Both Amiya and this Drjie had extremely bright and gentle smiles on their faces, but she felt a little scared.

It's not that kind of instinctive fear, but a fear of what I will do in the future. What's going on?

"The doctor's car is here, let's go!" Amiya's words woke the doctor up from his daze.

"Well, let's go."

025. It’s…going to leak out!

...7 kilometers of desert around Longmen...

Kal'tsit, who had just finished a meeting, walked to her own private office, where in addition to the elite operator Scout, there was also our logistics operator and reserve elite operator Lin Lei.

Well, because of his outstanding performance in the previous mission, under the pleading of Amiya (actually it was to get an extra salary), Lin Lei accepted such a position that did not require him to train during normal times but required him to go on missions.

“Okay, let’s talk about what you saw in Chernobog.” Kal’tsit took a sip of coffee, crossed her legs, and looked at Scout, who was a little reserved, and Linley, who looked indifferent.

A strange silence filled the office. Finally, Scout seemed to be unable to bear it anymore and spoke first:

"Then let me report first. The main personnel of the Reunion Movement are local infected people from Ursus, and there are many severely infected people among them. In addition, there are mercenary groups from Kazdel to help them."

"If my guess is correct, this should be the intention of the Regent..." Scout took off his usual sunglasses and stared at Kal'tsit: "Dr. Kal'tsit, we may have to prepare for war..."

"No... It's not the right time for either Rhodes Island or us, and their target should not be the current Rhodes Island." Kal'tsit decisively rejected this idea: "Apart from this, is there any other news?"

"The Integration Movement is not a monolithic entity. Mephisto, the doctor, died at the hands of Dredger, and his friend Faust was killed by me."

Scout shrugged. He knew his proposal would be rejected but that didn't stop him from making this suggestion.

"As for Mephisto, both the cadre Froststar and the Kingslayer seem to have a lot of conflicts with Mephisto, but these people will still unite to face the outside world when they encounter danger."

“But because of Dredger, both the assassination team and the Yeti team chose to ignore us when they evacuated Rhodes Island.” Scout glanced at Linley who was picking his nose.

"That's all I know. You can ask Draige for the rest. I won't keep you company." Scout said and ran out of the room.

“Just tell me what you know… There are only two of us here now.” Kal’tsit saw Scout running away but didn’t say anything, nor did she ask her Mon3tr to pull him back. She turned her head and looked at Lin Lei who was whistling.

“I remember that you, Kal’tsit, spent quite a bit of time in Ursus, right?” Linley stroked his chin and asked playfully, “Then do you know the name Koschei…?”

"The Duke of Ursus... The title of Duke of Kosice has been passed down for hundreds of years. Every generation is different, but everyone who has seen him will say that he is the real Kosice."

Kal'tsit immediately began to recall: "This Duke of Koschei died at the hands of his adopted daughter, Tallulah. Why are you asking me this?" She frowned slightly and looked at Linley who was standing beside her.

Linley was a little stunned: "Old man, how long have you lived..."

'boom! '

Before someone could finish his words, he was pressed against the wall by a dark green crystal monster: "If you can't explain the reason, I will let you reunite with Warfarin." The old lynx said sinisterly.

"Why is she hung on the bridge again?"

“Last night when the doctor just came back, she almost couldn’t hold back when she went to draw blood. Um… According to her words, although it’s not as fragrant as that bastard Linley, it’s also very fragrant.” Kal’tsit propped up her head and looked at him with an unhappy face:

"Aren't you afraid that the warfarin will lose its effect?"

“Ah?! So she hasn’t failed yet.” Linley patted Mon3tr and said, “Brother, please let go. I can’t breathe.”

Afterwards, it was not known whether Mon3tr understood Linley’s words or it loosened its claws following Kal’tsit’s instructions, but it still held onto Linley’s collar and floated in the air. Linley could only scratch his head.

"If Kal'tsit, I told you that Kosice is not dead and he is now possessed by that Tallulah, what would you think?"

“Reasons and evidence?” Kal’tsit’s emerald eyes looked directly at Linley. “Or is this just your conjecture?”

“The reason is that she told me this herself when she was recruiting me.” Linley smiled a very ‘simple and honest’ smile. “And I also saw two different consciousnesses in her essence, and now the dominant one is a black aggregate consciousness.”

"Then do you agree?"

“Promise what?” Linley was stunned for a moment. “Oh, you mean Kosice’s poaching? She even wanted to have sex with me at the time... Unfortunately, when I thought of your perfect face, Kal’tsit, I rejected her generous offer.”

"Can you give me a raise if I praise you so much?"

Kal'tsit snorted in annoyance: "When did you develop the habit of daydreaming? Besides, the Integration Movement probably can't pay wages, and there is no pension you want... Is this the reason for your refusal?"

“How do you know this? Were you also in Qie City at the time?” Lin Lei was shocked, and then he was thrown out of the office by Mon3tr.

“I know all your little tricks, and I... know everything... Remember to take the warfarin off the bridge.” Kal’tsit said as she closed the office door. “Enjoy your vacation, Linley, we’ll be at Longmen soon!”

......On the bridge of Rhodes Island...

Linley stared at the blood demon who looked like dried bacon with a pair of dead fish eyes: "How dare you provoke Kal'tsit as soon as you came back? Didn't I draw a tube of blood from you? How long have you been hanging for?"

“It’s been twelve hours~ Hmm? Hmm! Lin Lei, you’re here, let me down!” Warfarin, who was tied up with hemp ropes, twisted his body and swayed on the bridge: “That’s not... That’s not something I’ve seen before, I didn’t want to drink it at first... But the doctor’s blood...”

"Very unique, isn't it? I always think it's a good thing to let you keep hanging on it."

"No, I'm about to pee if you keep hanging there!" Warfarin's expression became extremely ferocious: "I don't want to be the first blood demon in Rhodes Island, oh no, the first one in the world to die because of urinary incontinence!"

"Hurry up, why are your hands so slow?"

Linley was furious when he heard this. He pulled out a dagger and stabbed the rope with it. “Damn it, you have really high expectations!”

"Pfft~"

Warfarin successfully landed on his knees, and the shock caused a floodgate to loosen up a bit: "Lin... Lin Lei..."

"what happened again?"

"Hurry... hurry and take me to the bathroom, I'm really going to come out now!"

026. Release yourself~

"Ah↑ah↑ah↓" Perhaps because he was about to burst out of control, a certain blood demon released himself directly in the toilet.

“Can you please keep your voice down? This is my fucking toilet.” Linley hammered on the door. “Besides, why don’t you use the public toilet instead of mine?”

"Nonsense, if I scream like this in a public toilet... I'm afraid I can't wash myself clean even if I jump into the sea." Then the sound of flushing was heard, and Warfarin came out wiping his hands with satisfaction.

“Why do I feel like you might be quite happy, you masochist?” Linley looked at Warfarin with dead eyes, while Miss Blood Demon pounced on him and pinched his face with her two cold, white hands.

“What do you mean, Lin Lei? Don’t think I won’t beat you up just because you’re out on a field mission!” Warfarin pushed Lin Lei down on the bed, and his two slender legs wrapped in black stockings directly clamped around his waist.

"You know, although you were able to survive mainly because of Kal'tsit, I also contributed!"

“I’m warning you, there shouldn’t be any physical contact between men and women… Also, did you wash your hands after using the restroom?” Lin Lei’s hand was grabbing Warfarin’s wrist to prevent him from doing anything else, and also because someone was sitting on his stomach and twisting it back and forth.

It seems that a certain part is about to awaken...

“Is this all you want to say about our current position?” Huafarin narrowed her eyes. To be honest, Lin Lei was in her strike zone in terms of both appearance and the smell of his blood. The two of them were ‘good brothers’ who could talk about anything. They were also immortals, so it was no big deal for him to get such a good deal.

“Yes.” Linley nodded seriously. “Warfarin, your chest is so flat. I prefer big cars…”

Suddenly, the entire Lin Lei's dormitory fell into a deathly silence: "Lin Lei... I am going to suck all your blood today!!!"

Warfarin and Lin Lei were fighting on the bed. Her slender hands roughly tore open someone's shirt, then she bit Lin Lei's shoulder and started to enjoy her breakfast.

“Why didn’t you resist?” Warfarin didn’t suck blood without restraint. After taking a sip, she stopped and looked at Lin Lei, who rolled his eyes.

"I'm afraid of breaking your arm, and it's okay to just suck a few mouthfuls of blood. Anyway, I'm going to take a vacation later, so no matter what the mission is, it has nothing to do with me."

“Since you still know how to be gentle with women, I won’t eat it.” Warfarin said as he rolled over to Linley’s shoulder, then stretched out his left hand and drew the sign of the cross on Linley’s chest:

"Really not?"

“Really? If you’re particularly hungry right now, I’m not against sacrificing my precious body.” Linley smiled. “At least it’s not appropriate now, right?”

“That’s true, but I still feel uncomfortable with what you said.” Warfarin grabbed Linley’s hand and bit it gently. “Rhodes Island and Longmen are collaborating on a project this time. As a member of the medical department, I may not be able to take a vacation. You have to find someone to go out and play with.”

"Also, have you started a war with the Reunion? I can hear you fighting with the Reunion's leader even when I go to the cafeteria to eat."

“There was no one-on-one duel… and the leader of the Reunion Movement wasn’t Tallulah, but a pervert possessed by Tallulah.” Linley narrowed his eyes. “Was this cooperation proposed by Longmen or was it offered by us?”
