There is no way the Liberian girl could lay eggs!

"She's alone, we might have a chance of winning..."

Without giving in, black lines began to flash between Amiya's hands, and spells gathered at her fingertips, ready to launch an attack at any time.

"Amiya."

Suddenly, a pair of large hands pressed on Amiya's shoulders, and the heavy weight bent her body.

"Mr. ACE?"

Amiya hurriedly dispersed the Originium skills in her hand and looked back at the tall operator.

She remembered him, who had always been by their side since the Tower of Babel. He was very reliable and she always felt at ease when going on missions with him.

This time is no exception.

"Everyone is tired."

The palm of his hand stroked Amiya's head again, indicating his intention. Amiya looked back.

Amiya obediently looked back and saw a scene that silenced her.

Lin Guang's shield was broken in half, and Jijing's flag was also cut off, leaving only a bare flagpole. Even the tuft of red hair on his head, which he cared about most, drooped messily on his forehead.

Fatigue spread among the crowd. After a day of fighting, they were all tired and no longer had the strength to participate in a battle that was impossible to win.

As another commander in the team, ACE could not tolerate Amiya's "willfulness".

Facing Tallulah in her prime, even if they win, they will inevitably have to pay a heavy price.

"But... I promised Dr. Kal'tsit... I promised her..."

Muttering these words, Amiya's eyes kept shifting between ACE and the others.

Reason told her that leaving a hostage behind in exchange for the safety of others was the safest approach, as a forceful breakout would only bring greater damage.

But the persistence deep in her heart made her unwilling to give up any of her partners.

They were all from Rhodes Island, all her friends and family. She couldn't accept giving up any of them.

Amiya clenched and unclenched her little fists, hesitating and thinking.

If only there was a way to have the best of both worlds...

As her head turned, Amiya saw her feet and her thoughts suddenly stopped.

If I stay here, can others leave?

If it were me...

"I'm staying here!"

The moment the thought came to her mind, Amiya had already taken a step and walked out.

“Let them go!”

"Amiya?!"

Amiya's reckless behavior scared the people behind her. Several people rushed out and tried to catch her, but they were stopped by ACE.

"Growing up..."

Looking at Amiya's thin back with a look of relief, ACE took a step forward.

Amiya noticed someone coming from behind, but she didn't dare to look back. She was afraid that she would show a bad expression and be laughed at by everyone.

It was not until a pair of warm big hands covered her head that she recognized the identity of the person.

"Mr. ACE, please tell Dr. Kal'tsit that I'm fine and will be back in half a month... I..."

Amiya stumbled over what she wanted to say, but couldn't form any words.

"It's okay, good boy. I'll tell Dr. Kelsey."

His palm stroked Amiya's head back and forth, and the gentle movement soothed Amiya little by little.

"Well! Then I'll leave it to you, Mr. ACE! Please... lead everyone out!"

After preparing herself mentally, Amiya turned around resolutely and walked towards Tallulah.

One step, two steps, three steps...

Her steps were forcibly stopped by an external force, and Amiya turned to look at the tall figure behind her.

"Mr. ACE..."

"Ah... you're still a child after all. If I just leave you here like this, you'll definitely be scolded by Dr. Kal'tsit when you get back, right?"

With a grin on his face, ACE took off his sunglasses and put them on Amiya's head.

ACE's sunglasses don't suit Amiya very well. They look like hip-hop glasses, which makes her look funny.

Ink-black eyes appeared in front of everyone. In the corner of ACE's eyes, a crystal the size of a fingernail sparkled in the sunlight.

"I'm already that old, it would be embarrassing if I were still scolded like a child."

"So, I'll leave it to you to take the blame."

Smiling gently, ACE removed his hand from Amiya's head.

"Mr. ACE, you..."

After seeing the smile on ACE's face, Amiya instinctively had a bad feeling in her heart, but before she could say anything, ACE's hand slid down to the back of Amiya's neck.

With just a light tap, Amiya, who was lively and energetic just now, suddenly became limp and fell to the ground.

"Operator Lin Guang, I'm counting on you."

After picking up Amiya who had fallen to the ground and handing her to Margaret, ACE looked at Tallulah.

"I stay, they leave."

As he spoke, ACE put the shield in his hand on the ground.

Then there was the bulletproof vest, the dagger hidden in the thigh bag, and the communicator.

In order to get Tallulah's direction, ACE threw his communicator directly at Tallulah.

"Sure. Go east from here. The road there is still in good condition."

After taking the communicator and confirming that it had not been tampered with, Tallulah burned it to ashes.

Pointing the way to the people from Rhodes Island, Tallulah jumped aside and made way for them.

"I always keep my word, and I hope you will do the same."

Looking at the Rhodes Island operators who passed by her one after another, Tallulah spoke suddenly, attracting a lot of meaningful glances.

Under the coordination of ACE, Rhodes Island successfully withdrew from the battlefield.

This is Rhodes Island's first large-scale mission since the Secession War three years ago.

The target was rescued and there were no serious casualties. The price paid was...

Just a senior operator.

Maybe two.

"To be honest, I thought you would kill them the moment they left."

Seeing Rhodes Island successfully evacuated, ACE felt relieved.

He made the right bet; he always had good luck when it came to gambling.

"If there is any detailed news about us within fifteen days, I will."

Walking forward expressionlessly, Tallulah looked at the weapons and equipment that ACE had dropped on the ground and said, "Pick them up."

"what?"

Looking at Tallulah in surprise, ACE could hardly believe his ears.

Is this...preparing to silence someone?

"Pick up your things, put them on, and get out of here with me."

Tallulah repeated what she had just said, her tone becoming a little impatient.

Without delay, ACE immediately put on all the equipment that had been thrown on the ground.

After ACE was dressed, Tallulah turned around and quickly left, heading towards the city center.

"Where?"

ACE quickly chased after her, somewhat confused about what Tallulah was thinking.

This...if you want to kill me or cut me up, at least give me an explanation? Without saying anything, it feels like I'm being executed.

"Will it maintain order?"

After saying something incoherent, Tallulah bent her knees and jumped onto a broken building.

ACE jumped up immediately and stood behind Tallulah.

"I worked in Kazdel for a while before. You know, that place is always in war, so their methods might be a bit violent."

"It doesn't matter. Take them with you. Food and water will be provided. After fifteen days, you will be free."

By moving aside, Tallulah exposed the scene in front of her to ACE.

It was an isolated urban area where panic and riots were happening all the time. The crying of children and the shouting of mothers echoed in ACE's ears.

"How many people are here...?"

"Thousands, tens of thousands, or even tens of millions. We haven't counted them exactly. Almost all the survivors of Chernobyl are here."

"You want to use them as death squads? Let them charge into battle?"

"Just a hostage, just like you."

After giving a brief reply, Tallulah turned away impatiently: "Someone will come to take over from you. Those big guys should be able to get along with you."

After saying that, without waiting for ACE to answer, Tallulah disappeared in front of ACE with a few jumps.

"With so many people...how am I supposed to handle this?"

Looking at the dark crowd below, ACE felt his scalp tingling.

He thought there were only a few dozen people, but there turned out to be so many. He...

"Oh, never mind, just consider it as food expenses..."

With a helpless sigh, ACE squatted on the spot, waiting for his escort to arrive.

On the other side, after leaving ACE, Tallulah walked straight towards Chernobog's radio station.

There is currently the only place in Chernobog that can connect with the outside world, and that is Chernobog's tongue.

She also had to go to Mephistopheles to prevent this guy who had gradually lost his mind from doing anything wrong. She also had to go to Kosice to get back some say...

Strive to pull more people back to the right path!

With Tallulah's full effort, it didn't take long for them to reach the radio station in Chernobyl. Without hesitation, Tallulah pushed open the door and walked in.

"My dear daughter, how is it going?"

As soon as she entered the room, a gentle voice made Tallulah stop in her tracks.

Tallulah followed her gaze and saw someone she didn't want to see.

A beautiful Liberian woman in a long dress was lazily lying on a recliner, looking at Tallulah with a smile on her face. The charming smile on her face made Tallulah feel physically uncomfortable.

Volume 5: Chapter 98: I Protect You

"Put that smile away, or I can't guarantee what I'll do."

Looking at Kosice with a frown, Tallulah's tone was extremely cold, forming a sharp contrast with the warmth around her.

"You're always like this. I've never seen you smile for a single day in the more than ten years we've been together."

Stretching lazily, Kosice sat up from the recliner, her beautiful figure clearly revealed by her long skirt.

"I can't smile at you. I'd rather use a sword to cut a few holes in your face so I don't have to vomit every time I think about it."

"Sister Tallulah? You're here?!"

Just as the two were arguing, Mephistopheles, who was responsible for delivering messages in the radio station, heard the voice and ran out, swaying excitedly in front of Tallulah.
