Ark Chess Player.

Lin Lu didn't look at Amiya, but glanced at Chen and said indifferently, "Take good care of my people."

That's all that was left behind.

Chen pursed her lips, ultimately unable to utter a rebuttal; she was deeply intimidated by Lin Lu's gaze.

Although Lin Lu didn't say it out loud... Chen Huijie always felt that he was expressing something.

"If any of my men die, I will make Longmen pay with their lives."

Lin Lu strolled across the battlefield, and no one dared to stop him.

The men in black cloaks regrouped. They were not intimidated by the deaths of their comrades, but they were not reckless enough to throw their lives away. They all knew that unless the Winter Official ordered them to retreat, they had no choice but to fight to the bitter end.

This is the value of a suicide squad member.

Chen Huijie followed helplessly, knowing that Lin Lu was not joking.

He means it.

"BOSS!"

The swindler managed to tie a strip of cloth around the upper part of the severed arm, preparing to stop the bleeding in an emergency. His face was deathly pale, and he was sweating profusely from the excruciating pain, but he still managed a rather manly smile and raised his hand to salute Lawyer Lin.

"Can the hand be reattached?"

"It's nothing. If I really can't connect it, I'll just switch to a prosthetic arm. This is a work injury!"

The scammer joked, revealing a smile that looked more like a grimace.

Lin Lu remained silent for a moment, then slowly nodded.

"it is good."

The swindler stopped talking. He watched Lin Lu walk away towards the ruins and suddenly realized something.

The boss... got angry.

The swindler shuddered. No, he had to notify the leader of Chaoshan immediately—Longmen might be about to be blown up!

"Go save them, I'll stay here."

Lin Lu walked up to Da Xiong, left a message, and then walked directly past him into the ruins.

Da Xiong didn't stop Lin Lu. He knew who this person was, but most importantly... he didn't even have the courage to stop Lin Lu.

Once Lin Lu entered the ruins, the tense atmosphere, so tight it was hard to breathe, eased slightly. It was a pressure of impending doom, as if the world was about to end.

Amiya and Blaze exchanged a glance. Blaze then sought Amiya's consent; she... wanted to save the Yetis. However, doing so might lead to a complete breakdown in relations between Rhodes Island and Lungmen, as they had sided with the Reunion Movement.

The Reunion Movement is the invaders who invaded Lungmen, the sworn enemy of Lungmen—that's what they say, but the Doctor has already ripped Black Cloak's head off and thrown it onto the battlefield, then boldly stepped into the crowd. Even Superintendent Chen is on his side; that's the real issue.

Superintendent Chan, have you really betrayed us?

"Huang."

Amiya exhaled softly; she had made her decision.

“You go and support Superintendent Chen. I’ll contact Dr. Gavial and Dr. Shining. Saving lives is the priority.”

Yes, Amiya!

Huang responded loudly, picked up the chainsaw, and directly assembled the chainsaw extension module.

The men in black raincoats were preparing to form a formation, but before that, they needed to seek confirmation from the Winter Official.

Is it really a fight to the death?

It's not too late to retreat now.

"Damn it...who came from here?"

Dong Guan was gritting his teeth, staring at the ruins, feeling intense resentment.

He was unwilling to give up so easily, but he had witnessed Lin Lu's methods. If he could easily eliminate Chen, who ranked high among the Black Cloak Twelve Earthly Branches, then slaughtering the other Black Cloak members might only be a matter of time.

That being the case...

"kill!"

"The Winter Official is shouting sternly."

He took out the celestial globe, took charge of the winter calendar, and personally participated in the battle.

Dong Guanzheng had made up his mind. If all the Shadow Guards were dead, he would escape to the Longmen Administrative Hall! If he failed this time, he would at most return to the Great Yan Kingdom. But if he succeeded, as long as he could refine that infected person into a magical artifact, he would have a chance to become the next Supervisor!

Risk always comes with reward. If he doesn't take the plunge this time, what is he waiting for? If he slunk back like this, perhaps no one will ever dare to ask him to leave Yan Kingdom again. If he continues to stay in Yan Kingdom, he will have absolutely no chance of surpassing Chun Guan Zheng, Xia Guan Zheng, and Qiu Guan Zheng!

There is only one position of Supervisor. Whether one rises to great heights or remains stuck in this position for life, victory or defeat hinges on this one move!

Moreover, no matter how Dong Guanzheng divined, the result was always auspicious, which gave him some confidence.

Fortune favors the bold, and Dong Guanzheng is determined to take a gamble.

The men in black raincoats sighed helplessly. What else could they do?

"As ordered!"

This is the fate of a tool person.

As the sounds of fierce fighting echoed from outside the ruins, inside the ruins...

Froststar is crying.

Chapter 428 I'm Willing to Join Rhodes Island

Group 4⑧87④97⑨9

Froststar actually woke up quite early.

The moment she realized the Froststone had shattered, she was jolted awake from her slumber, staring at the half-collapsed ceiling.

Frostnova tried to stand up, but due to the backlash of the spell, she couldn't move her body. This time, she couldn't even move her head, because she was truly exhausted; even the strongest will couldn't support her heavy body on the verge of death.

Frostnova opened her mouth, trying to speak, but her voice was drowned out by the sounds of fierce fighting outside the ruins. She could hear the screams of her brothers and sisters in battle, the sound of blades cutting into their flesh, conjuring up a hellish scene in her mind.

The Yetis stood guard outside the door, the Froststones shattered one by one, and life withered away.

Tears streamed down her face. Froststar wasn't crying out of fear, but out of hatred for her own powerlessness.

As a warrior, Frostnova was not afraid of death, but she felt resentful. She watched helplessly as her brothers and sisters sacrificed themselves to protect her, someone whose time was already limited. Being unable to do anything when the Yetis needed her most was a feeling worse than death itself.

Snap, snap.

A crisp sound came from the road surface covered with a thin layer of frost.

A white figure appeared in Froststar's tear-blurred vision. She blinked, and a teardrop slid down her cheek. She recognized who it was.

"law?"

Her voice was as thin as a thread, like she was praying.

"it's me."

Lin Lu squatted down on the ground, gently picked up Shuangxing, and let her lie in his arms.

Lin Lu's movements were incredibly gentle, as if he were holding the most precious and fragile flower in the world.

"My brothers and sisters, cough, cough cough... Are they still alive?" Froststar coughed violently due to her emotional distress, gritting her teeth to endure the pain, squeezing out the words from her stained teeth.

"With me here, what do you say?"

Lin Lu wiped the blood from Shuangxing's lips and asked in return.

Froststar breathed a sigh of relief, her breath trembling as she forced a smile.

“With your intelligence, they may suffer, but they should be able to survive… It’s good that they survive.” Froststar looked at Lin Lu’s face, and as if realizing something, she chuckled, “Of course, I won’t survive.”

"Yelena..."

"Don't try to comfort me, I know my physical condition..."

Froststar's smile gradually softened. When she learned that her brothers and sisters still had a chance to survive, she felt a taut string finally loosen, and the breath she had been holding on to dissipated. Her lifeless body began to decline.

She planned to use all her energy on talking; since she was going to die anyway, she might as well be a little willful.

Froststar wanted to spend the last moments of her life with the man who had left an indelible mark on her heart.

“Bad people should act like bad people. I have no complaints about the ending I deserve. I'm just not reconciled... I'm not reconciled! It was me and the Reunion Movement who targeted innocent Lungmen people, single-handedly creating a dark future for the Ursus Infected. But my brothers and sisters, they were just a bunch of fools, fools who only knew how to help each other, only wanted to survive, only wanted a place to stay. They shouldn't have died here with me. They were stupid, but they weren't bad. Law, I'm really—not reconciled!”

Froststar closed her eyes in pain.

Whether it was her or her brothers and sisters, all of their lives were exploited.

This is a scam.

Maybe it wasn't at the beginning, but it is now, and it will be in the future.

The war, which was originally launched to prevent more injustices against the infected, has brought about more unnecessary sacrifices.

Those infected should be proud of their identity and seize justice from the earth by the simplest means. This is part of the Reunion Movement's philosophy and a belief that Talulah once spoke to everyone about.

However, all those ideas she spoke of, those directions that pointed the way forward, were lies. The Reunion Movement is all deception, all incitement, all bloodshed, all fire. Perhaps in the past two weeks, the number of Oripathy patients who have died from the war is no less than the number persecuted in the Ursus mines.

"I'm here, everything will be alright, I promise."

Lin Lu gently embraced Shuangxing, his voice trembling.

Within the digitized spiritual realm, Froststar's health was steadily declining, each tick causing him heartache.

Froststar tried to lift her head, but she could only move her mouth. She smiled helplessly: "We yearn to save our fellow citizens and the infected. We want to find a place that is warm, has food, and shelter... but not Lungmen. The citizens of Lungmen have their own lives too. You know, Law, in the corner of this house, there used to be a mother and daughter, ordinary citizens of Lungmen, hiding here."

Froststar's eyes softened; she was a thoughtful person who could remember the little things in life.

"The mother was holding a burning stick, her hands burned raw, but she dared not put it down. It was her only weapon; she had to protect her daughter. I've always remembered her expression. It was then that I realized I was wrong, Talulah was wrong, we were all wrong. True happiness can never be obtained through plunder. There are never winners in war, only losers. When we were besieging cities and fighting, how were we any different from those thugs who had persecuted us?"

"Our true destination is not the Dragon Gate."

"The only place we should go back to is Ursus, our homeland."

"The vast expanse of white snow, glaciers and rivers, swaying pine forests, and verdant moss... all we've ever known is that snowfield. This land may be very unfair, but... that's our home."

Froststar was pale, but she became more and more energetic as she spoke.

His breathing became rapid, his face flushed, and the rate at which he gained Originium increased significantly.

"Um……"

Lin Lu saw this and unconsciously hugged her even tighter.

Because the data-driven spirit realm shows that Froststar's life is already on a countdown.

This is not a symptom of health, but rather a reaction at the critical point of compensatory dysfunction. As life nears its end, the body mobilizes its potential for a final, death-defying struggle. The saturated adenosine triphosphate (ATP) stored within cells rapidly converts to adenosine diphosphate (ADP), releasing a massive amount of energy to supply various organs and tissues. Particularly in this stress state, the nervous and endocrine systems are activated; the hypothalamus and pituitary gland prompt the adrenal cortex to immediately secrete large amounts of adrenaline and corticosteroids, and nerve excitation points become active.

"Law, can you promise me something?"

Frostnova's eyes were fixed on Lin Lu. She said softly, "If I'm not mistaken, Mephisto has been manipulated. Talulah's scheme is definitely not just about seizing the city. Even if my father, Bodrakasti, could be deceived by her for a while, she can't fool him forever. Talulah isn't the kind of person who would gamble without preparation. Since she dared to plan like this, she must have a method targeting the old man. Lu, I beg you, stop Talulah now. Even if it means destroying her, don't let the Reunion Movement become a facade, don't let the ideals of the Reunion Movement become empty words."

"The Reunion Movement I know is not a terrifying behemoth that devours its own people. The Reunion Movement I know is an organization that exists to save more people, a safe haven for the persecuted Infected. The Reunion Movement doesn't need Talulah, it doesn't need the Talulah of today..."

Froststar's speech slowed down, her face gradually turned pale, and the power of her last burst of energy slowly dissipated.

"What's the truth?"

Lin Lu gently touched Shuangxing's red nose and wiped away the blood that had accidentally welled up inside her.

Beautiful girls don't get nosebleeds.

Frostnova will always be the most beautiful girl in his heart.

Lin Lu gently stroked Shuangxing's cheek with his fingers and whispered, "You don't actually hate her at all, do you?"

"you caught me."

Frostnova pursed her lips and whispered, "The Talulah I first met wasn't the Talulah of today; she was definitely not the same person. That Talulah walking through the mud was a true fighter. I didn't get everyone to join Reunion because she was related to you. I was captivated by what she said back then, and left the North to change the situation of the Infected, heading south... cough, um..."

Shuangxing coughed up blood, her brows furrowing in pain. Lin Lu quickly comforted her back.

"Ritsu, go save her, help her, bring her back... bring back the real Talulah..."

"I promise you."

Lin Lu held Shuangxing's hand, transferring the warmth of his palm to her, preventing her from falling asleep.

Froststar then smiled, her eyes crinkling with laughter, and said weakly, "Rule, come closer, I can't speak that loudly right now."
