Arknights, Suika's Messenger Journey

Cuixiang sat up straight and said, "There's a saying in Da Yan that goes, 'Where there is a will, there is a way.' It means that if you set a goal and are willing to work hard for it, you will succeed one day.

On the other hand, if you don’t even have a goal, you will never have a chance of success.”

"So your goal is to travel around Terra?" Alina tilted her head and looked at Suixiang. She felt that although she looked very young, what she said made much more sense than her own.

"That's right, I don't want to look back on my life when I'm old and realize that I've lived a mediocre life, accomplished nothing, and am just an ordinary, mediocre person.

But I'm not someone like Tallulah, who has a unique charm and is good at uniting others, so I can only choose to start from myself and change myself. My goal is to travel all over Terra, and then write a travelogue of Terra. Maybe I can even become a famous writer in Terra."

Suixiang looked at the double moons in the sky, and recalled the impulsive thought that came to her mind after she knew she came to this world, and she couldn't help but feel heroic.

"That's amazing!" Alina clapped her hands, then suddenly remembered something when she saw the thing in her hand.

"By the way, let me help you maintain the corners. I found the wax I bought earlier when I was cleaning the house. It would be a waste if I forget where I threw it after moving if I don't use it."

Suika didn't refuse, but fell down and rested her head on Alina's legs.

Not far away, after listening to the conversation between the two, Tallulah turned around and disappeared behind a big tree.

The next day, Suika helped Alina carry a bag of clothes and followed the convoy on the evacuation route.

In the afternoon, when the crowd passed through the forest and came to a riverbank, dozens of Ursus soldiers suddenly appeared not far away.

Everyone was stunned when the two sides met.

The Reunion Movement thought they had escaped Ursus's encirclement, but the Ursus soldiers did not expect that they would meet people from the Reunion Movement after getting lost.

Especially when they saw that almost all the people here were old, weak, sick and disabled, they suddenly felt that military merit was beckoning to them.

"Run!" Alina pulled Suika and tried to escape from here.

Suika reached out to stop her.

"No, most of us are elderly, children, and sick people. We can't outrun these Ursus soldiers."

"What should we do then?" Alina asked anxiously after hearing this.

At this time, Talulah led a group of people to open the way in front, and Bozhukasti and Froststar led the shield guards and the snow monster team to follow the rear. They did not expect that they would encounter Ursus soldiers here in the center of the army.

Even if both parties arrived, it would take more than ten minutes, which was simply too late.

"Let me do it. After all, I've been eating for free here for so long, I have to do something to help everyone."

Suika reached out and patted Alina's shoulder to reassure her, then walked alone towards the Ursus soldiers rushing towards her.

When the distance between the two sides was less than ten meters, Suixiang took out the Ibuki scoop without any hesitation, and then took out a wine glass.

"My dear fellows, let's have a drink before the fight!"

The Ursus soldiers who were charging stopped what they were doing as if possessed after Suika finished speaking and walked to her side.

"Come on, come on, two cups each, don't panic, don't rush, line up and drink!"

While the crowd was still fleeing in panic because of the arrival of the Ursus soldiers, Alina, who was not far away, looked at Suika in astonishment as she held up her wine glass, smiled, poured wine, and knocked down all the Ursus soldiers.

"Done!" When the last soldier fell drunkenly to the ground, Suika turned around and gave a thumbs up to Alina, who was speechless at the strange scene.

"This..." Alina said that she was knowledgeable as she followed Tallulah, but she never expected that someone would toast the enemy on the battlefield. The key point was that the situation was obviously tense, but the other party actually stopped and took the wine and drank it.

And he was drunk.

This made her feel that her world view and outlook on life had suffered a serious impact.

"Alina!" Tallulah, who came running with an anxious look on her face, woke up Alina, who was stunned by Suika's "fighting style".

"Is it okay!"

After coming to the side, Talula reached out and touched Alina's body all over, and was relieved to see no scars.

"She, I..." Alina didn't know what to say.

"Where are the enemies?" With the arrival of the cold air, Frost Star, who was originally at the back of the palace, received the news and rushed here.

Alina pointed to the Ursus soldiers lying on the ground not far away. Only then did Tallulah and Alina realize that apart from those few people lying on the ground, there were no scars, no bloodstains, and no other corpses around.

After the two walked in, they smelled the strong smell of alcohol coming from the Ursus soldiers.

They were not unfamiliar with this smell. The alcohol that Cuixiang gave to the patients in the hospital for "anesthesia" tasted exactly the same after they drank it.

"So you don't want to ask me?" Suika said speechlessly after being ignored by the two.

Chapter 62: Drunken Singing

Hearing Suixiang's voice, several people lowered their heads to look at her and found that she was sitting not far away with her eyes hazy with drunkenness.

"What the hell is this..."

Yelena didn't believe that those soldiers would suddenly go crazy on the battlefield and have a drinking contest with Suika.

The key is not one or two but all.

And haven’t won yet.

You have to know that although Ursus people like to drink and sometimes are not restrained, it does not mean that they will drink in any situation.

At least, no one would get drunk with the enemy on the battlefield.

Because no matter how delicious the wine is, it is not as important as your own life. No one will throw away their life for a sip of wine.

"Hehe, a little spiritual suggestion."

Suika made a gesture of the universe between her fingers.

"Their goal is to beat us, there's no doubt about that. I just need to make them feel that beating me in a drinking contest is also a defeat, then it won't be difficult to stop them."

After hearing what Suika said, everyone's expression became a little strange.

"So why did you choose to have a drinking contest?"

"Just like you can see, because they definitely can't drink more than me!"

Suika said confidently.

Just when Yelena was about to say something, Bozhukas came from behind with shield guards.

Seeing this, Tallulah said

"Now is not the time to ask these questions. We have to leave."

Bozhukasti didn't know what was happening here, but he agreed with Tallulah's point of view that it was too dangerous to stay here because the Ursus army would catch up soon.

"What should we do with these people?" Yelena asked, pointing at the drunk Ursus soldier not far away.

"Leave them here. They can buy us some time." Talulah said and looked at Suika.

"Although I don't know how you did it, thank you for saving everyone."

"No need to be polite, I'm not just trying to save others, I'm also doing this for myself.

It’s too dangerous here, let’s go!”

Suixiang looked in the direction she came from. In the forest not far away, feathered beasts were circling in the sky and were unwilling to land. It was obvious that someone appeared there.

Now that the last members of the Reunion Movement have arrived here, the people in the forest can only be the Ursus army that has caught up with them.

Less than ten minutes after the group left, the Ursus army arrived.

Seeing the soldiers lying on the ground, the leader thought they were warriors killed by the Integration Movement.

As soon as he got closer, the strong smell of alcohol made the veins on his forehead throb.

After checking, it turned out to be just as expected that all these soldiers had fallen here after getting drunk.

"Damn it! Those Reunion rats should have left from here. If these guys hadn't been drunk and delayed them, we would have already caught them by the tail."

The leader was furious and prepared to execute all those who delayed military work because of drinking.

But he was stopped by the adjutant beside him.

"Lieutenant, something's wrong.

I know these people. They are our soldiers. They are all loyal fighters. They followed our plan to pursue the integration movement before they dispersed not long ago.

Besides, there's no alcohol in the army, so how could he get so drunk in such a short time?"

"Then wake them up and find out what happened!"

The leader naturally understood that this matter was very strange, but he was furious for a moment because he had the credit for the integration movement right in front of him but he watched him slip away.

In addition, these people actually drank on the battlefield, which almost made him decide to execute these soldiers directly.

After being reminded by his adjutant, he also realized that something was wrong. His soldiers knew that no matter how greedy they were or how much they drank, it was impossible for them to drink to this extent in a place where the enemy had to pass.

After several minutes of forcible awakening of several soldiers, the lieutenant walked up to one of them.

"What's wrong with you? I told you to find the rats in the Reunion Movement, so why are you all drunk..."

Hearing the chief's words, the man covered his head and recalled what happened before.

"We found the old, weak and sick people who were protected in the middle, and the captain led us to prepare to attack these people.

And then...hiss..."

The soldier stopped talking when recalling this, because he couldn't explain why he and his group suddenly started drinking with a little girl on the battlefield.

The key point is that the girl got them all drunk.

At this time, the other people who were questioned also had expressions of despair, and no one could figure out why they were like that at the time.

"Is it possible that they have been affected by the Originium technique?" someone in the team said.

After he finished speaking, the soldiers nodded in sudden realization. Since they couldn't explain why they suddenly behaved so outrageously, the only possibility was that the other party possessed mysterious Originium skills, which made them become what they were now.

"Take them back and have them carefully examined by the army's warlocks.

The rest of you follow me and continue chasing."

After summarizing these words, the second lieutenant also found it too strange that his soldiers suddenly chose to lay down their weapons during the battle and compete in drinking with a child from the other side, and the key point was that they were all drunk.

This news sounded outrageous. He now suspected that there were people in the Reunion Movement who had strange Originium skills. In order to prevent himself from being infected, he asked the warlock to check these people.

He and his other men continued to follow the traces left by the Reunion Movement when they evacuated.

But after being delayed here for more than ten minutes, the Integration Movement had already moved further and further away, and in the end he failed to catch the other party.

On the other hand, within the Reunion Movement, everyone felt relieved after successfully escaping from Ursus' pursuit.

In the temporary camp, Tallulah and other cadres discussed the next plan.

After the discussion, Yelena looked at Tallulah and said

"Are you planning to keep that child named Suixiang?"

Tallulah thought for a few seconds and nodded.

"I'm sure she didn't come to Ursus just out of curiosity about our Reunion Movement as she said.

But from the time she came here until now, she has never done anything to harm our people, and she has even saved everyone before.

Even though she is very mysterious and has many suspicious things about her, we cannot reject her just because she has a secret to hide.

Don't forget that our Reunion Movement was founded to resist the injustice inflicted on us infected people by Ursus.

But this does not mean that we should be completely hostile to non-infected people.

To be precise, resisting tyranny and winning over the lower-class Ursus people to give more infected people a chance to survive is the path we should take."

Chapter 63 The Day Will Come

"Ibuki Suika has a secret, that's her business, and has nothing to do with our Reunion.

Besides, are you sure you want to expel someone who saved our people?"

Faced with Tallulah's question, Yelena had nothing to say.

Even if Ibuki Suika has conspiracies and secrets, she is still the benefactor of the Reunion Movement until she reveals them.

Instead of thinking about how to repay those who helped the Reunion Movement, they expelled them. Once this matter gets out, it will be very detrimental to the Reunion Movement's recruitment of new members.

Even though ordinary people in Ursus would not join an organization composed entirely of infected people, the Integration Movement still needed to rely on ordinary people in many aspects - such as food.

"I think, Tallulah, you're right. It's normal to have secrets. They're not enemies, so there's no need to deal with them." Bozhukas on the side spoke up to decide the outcome of this conversation against Ibuki Suika.

On the other side, in the new house, Alina was looking at Suika curiously

"Why are you staring at me?" Suika, who was sitting on a stool, reading a colloquialism from a book to reward herself with a sip of wine, felt Alina's gaze and couldn't help scratching the back of her head.

"You really won't get drunk?" Alina calculated that the amount of wine she drank from the beginning until now was enough to knock two big men out.
