NIKKE, after maxing out the favorability, all the Nikkis are not right

It's like walking on flat ground, just like a meteor running across the plain.

The tornado was clearly moving forward at a rapid speed, but the two people on horseback did not feel any bumps.

Marian happily hugged his waist tightly, gently resting her head on his back, and said with a smile: "Commander, I'm so happy! It's great to be with you!"

"Me too, Marianne."

"Come to think of it, this is my first time riding a horse. I didn't expect the Crown's warhorse to be so brave."

"Yeah, it's really fast! It's even faster than the Ark's car!"

"Marianne..."

Bathed in the warm moonlight, Green turned his head slightly and looked back at the girl sitting in the back seat.

Under the moonlight, she gently lifted her silver-gray hair with her hand, and the innocence outlined at the corner of her lips was the scenery he wanted to reflect in his heart forever.

But little girls always have to grow up.

Compared to the innocent Marianne before, her face now had a hint of adolescent melancholy. She sat sideways on the horse, looking at Green's handsome face, and suddenly asked: "Commander, I'm actually a little curious. Why have you always been so nice to me? Is it because of something that happened between us in the past?"

"Was it over?"

"..."

Green was silent for a moment.

He didn't want to tell Marianne that he had pointed a gun at her twice.

Once is erosion, once is recapture.

But every time he fired, he felt bad. He couldn't understand why she had to suffer so much, endure such a bizarre and incredible experience. If he could, he wanted to protect her with all his strength, so that she wouldn't have to go through the same thing again.

"Marian."

"I'll tell you about our past when I have the chance. But I want you to know that when we first met, you showed me unconditional kindness. I hope I can give you the same care, so I will never let you down."

"Commander, I won't let you down either."

"When I become stronger, I can help you!"

"Although it's a good intention, those tasks are for adults. You just have to wait, Marianne."

Green stretched out a hand and gently ruffled Marian's hair. After a moment, he smiled and said, "Wait until I have arranged everything. There will always be a safe place for you to live. Until then, you should stay in the Kingdom of the Crown. Do you understand?"

"Well, I will."

Marianne nodded obediently.

The two of them rode on the moonlight and rushed towards the Ark elevator.

For some reason, there should have been some Letchers wandering on the road, but for some reason they all hid, as if they were afraid of something.

Green didn't think much about it and just thought it was Letcher's habit.

But Marianne had some strange fantasies about Letcher.

"Commander, I've always been puzzled by a question: why do we have to be enemies with Letcher? Look, we haven't seen any Letcher along the way. It seems like they are afraid of them."

"Marianne, I don't know how to answer this, but Letcher has always been an enemy of humanity."

"Although we no longer know who fired the first shot, this deep blood feud that nearly wiped out an entire race after a century cannot be easily resolved with just a few words."

Green explained patiently.

"But I don't think the big guys on the Ark want to fight, right?"

"Anis, Nian, and Lavvi, each of them is very tired and no longer wants to fight Letcher. But why do we still have to continue fighting Letcher?"

Marianne tilted her head and asked curiously.

"..."

"Because war doesn't end just because you lay down your weapons."

Green closed his eyes and whispered, "Honestly, I'm tired of the endless fighting. I'm tired of the ground missions day after day, tired of doing dirty work for those Ark tycoons, tired of being a commander in name only after so many years of hard work. Sometimes I even think about escaping here forever and taking you to live in a deserted place."

"But even if I feel so tired, I will continue to fight. Because only by doing so can I protect you."

"So, I must clench my weapons tightly and swing my fists! Until I carve out my own kingdom and my own land, whether the final outcome is victory, reconciliation, or even failure, I will have no regrets."

"commander……"

"Marianne, my life creed has always been simple."

“When you really decide to do something, don’t let the hard-working self of yours have any regrets.”

Chapter 292 Marianne's Kiss.

"Shut up!"

About an hour later, Green pulled the reins slightly and stopped the tornado at the entrance of an Ark elevator.

The elevators of the Ark are interconnected. Even if you are a little further away from the Ark, you may find an old and dilapidated elevator. As for how it works and how it transports people from underground to such a distant ground, Green is too lazy to think about it. After all, this is something that scientists and civil engineering experts should consider.

"Here we are, Marianne."

"Wait a moment, Anis and the others will probably bring the supplies up soon."

"Okay, Commander."

Marian sat quietly on the horse, waiting obediently, but there was a hint of excitement in her eyes. After a moment of silence, she suddenly had a mischievous idea: "Commander, I'll hide first, and when Anis and the others come over, I'll give them a big scare!"

"alright."

"But don't scare them. Agnes is actually very timid. She usually trembles and breaks out in cold sweats when she hears ghost stories."

"Hey, no way!"

Marian found a rock near the elevator and hid under it.

Soon, the two people on the ground heard the humming sound of the elevator and the faint complaints of Anis and Nian.

"After sitting in the elevator for so long, we're finally here."

"You asked us to move so many supplies in the middle of the night. Lapi really knows how to order people around!"

"At least we have to ask her to treat us to a meal, right?"

"That's right, getting up in the middle of the night is making me feel sick."

Accompanied by a ding.

The mechanical valve on the ground slowly opened, and a transparent elevator popped out from it and landed steadily on the ground.

When the elevator door opened, Anis and Nian each carried a stack of large boxes and walked out.

"Two months' worth of snacks and frozen meats, isn't Marian really overeating?"

Anis put the supplies on the ground with a whoosh, then put her hands on her hips and started complaining about Marian.

"Marianne is a big eater."

Nien pushed his glasses and said, "I still remember the time when Master brought her back. We had chicken legs every three days and meat every two days. What kind of family are we? We've never had such a rich war before."

"no way."

"It's because the commander dotes on her too much."

Anis curled her lips, then suddenly put her hands on her hips and said, "Well, although I think the Commander is a little too partial to Marianne, if I had Marianne's strength, I would definitely be more willful than her."

"Tsk tsk tsk, Anis, double standards!"

"That's not double standards, that's human nature! Humph, classmate Nien, you still have a lot to learn from Teacher Anis in the future!"

Anis was showing off proudly to Nian.

Suddenly, Marian jumped out from the rocks beside them with a "wow", scaring Anis and Nian so much that they both screamed.

"Waaaaaaaaa! Did you expect us to scream like that, Marian? Actually, I noticed you right after I got out of the elevator."

Agnes giggled, made a face at Marianne, then opened her arms and hugged her tightly.

"We warmly welcome the fourth member of the counterattack force—Marianne Vending Machine—back for a limited time!"

"Annis, how come you still remember that?"

Marianne blushed.

She still remembered Anis had tricked her, saying that if she secretly drank the soda in the refrigerator, it would turn into a vending machine.

Then Marianne was fooled by Agnes and ate half a tube of toothpaste.

Unexpectedly, more than two months later, Anis still remembered this incident.

"Hey, of course I have to remember it! Not only do I have to remember the story about the Marian vending machine, but if you have any important events in your life in the future, I will also tell others about it on that page!"

Anis giggled, then let go of her hand and saluted Green who was riding on the horse next to her.

"Hey, Commander~"

"Why did you sneak out with Lavi yesterday without telling us? Did you go on a date?"

"Not really. It's just that Rabbi said she wanted to go somewhere, so I went with her."

"Hmph... perfunctory, but since it's from Rabbi, I'll forgive you this time."

Anis snorted lightly, but did not ask any more questions about Rabi. After all, Rabi was also her good friend, and she did not want to make the relationship between them too stiff.

"Have you prepared all the supplies for the Kingdom?"

Green got off his horse and counted the supplies.

"Of course, the things Shuen sent were all high-end products, and I couldn't bear to use them."

The goods brought by Anis and Nian were all good goods, the high-quality supplies that Missilister supplied to the outpost.

Although the outpost was not a wealthy family, as long as Shuen asked, she would do her best to supply the materials. After all, she was so arrogant and domineering, and in the end, the handle was in the hands of Anik, leaving her in a dilemma.

"okay."

"Then let Marianne carry the trunk."

"Well, Marianne, this large box is for you. You will carry it on your back when the time comes. OK?"

Anis placed a huge suitcase of supplies on the ground. Although it was heavy, Nikki was able to carry it easily with her physique.

"I understand, Anis."

"You can call me Lady Anis, or Senior Anis, or if that doesn't work, call me Sister Anis."

Anis smiled. Although she wanted to act like a senior, she didn't want to play the seniority game. "Yeah, forget it. Stop calling me that. I don't like this senior-junior thing."

"Um, Master, I have a question, but I'm not sure if I should ask it."

"Nian? What's the matter? Ask."

"When will Marianne return to the Ark?"

"She won't be returning to the Ark. She will live with us on the surface in the future."

Green explained: "In an environment where humans are supreme, there is no place for heretics. The Ark is such a place. It cannot tolerate those who are different. Letting Marianne return there will only increase conflict and casualties."

"That's why I've always wanted to build my own ground base."

"You guys should get ready too. We'll go select a site on the ground in the next few days, or at the end of this month."

"Good good!"

Hearing that Green was finally planning to march to the ground, Anis was the first to jump up and said, "We can finally have our own territory. Hey, Commander, have you decided where to build it?"

"Well, we'll have to discuss this later."

Green said.

"We really need to discuss this, Master. If you ask me, this ground base should not be too close to the Ark, but it should not be too far away either."

Nian raised a finger and suddenly smiled and said, "If we're too close, it will be easy for Ark to find out that we've hidden Marian here. But if we're too far away, if something happens, Ark's support won't be in time."

"According to what Nian said, there don't seem to be many places we can choose."

Anis rubbed her chin with her hand and thought for a moment.

Originally, she had several good places in mind, but those places were either too far from the Ark or too close to the Ark.
