Ark Chess Player.

Be more proactive, Doctor. I still hope to see you settle down and take root in this land before I die.

Scout sincerely wishes them well.

"how is she?"

Lin Lu asked Warfarin, who was frowning.

"I gave her emergency treatment, but it only treated the symptoms, not the root cause. She had really hurt herself!"

Warfarin gripped her staff tightly in anger. If Kal'tsit hadn't been in such a bad state, she would have smashed the staff down on her... Well, she wouldn't have dared to if Kal'tsit were in a good state, but she was just so angry! Why did Kal'tsit always have to take on everything herself? Escaping was shameful, but it was useful!

"I'm very good."

After receiving Warfarin's blood magic healing, Kal'tsit was finally able to regain control of her body, at least enough to stand up without having to lean against the wall.

She had long known that Lin Lu possessed a unique magic that could make people lower their guard. Every time he touched her, she felt as comfortable as if she were in a hot spring, involuntarily relaxing and becoming dazed, practically a walking, talking aphrodisiac.

"Good my ass! No wonder even someone with my level 6 access can't see your file. If I had seen your actual condition, I would have written a critical condition notice for you long ago, locked you in the ward, and told you not to get better or leave. If the doctor hadn't knocked you out, I wouldn't have had a chance to check your physical condition."

Warfarin immediately refuted Kal'tsit and turned her gaze to Lin Lu, saying solemnly, "Doctor, she needs rest, she really needs it."

"I know my own body... I don't need you to worry about it."

Kal'tsit glanced at her, then looked at Lin Lu, putting on a defiant, indifferent expression.

“Since you are still you, go find Amiya. She will show you the structure of this ship, help you understand our situation, and also…”

Kal'tsit turned her gaze to the elite operators, who all lowered their heads and unconsciously raised their voices as they recited poetry, trying to hide their embarrassment at being spied on.

Kal'tsit realized that these guys were all holding back! Not a single one of them was playing seriously!

For example, if the elite operator Ayers were to activate Originium Arts, causing a qualitative change in the weight of his entire body, even Lin Lu wouldn't be able to defeat him using any skill.

...Seemingly sensing Kal'tsit's gaze, the honest and burly man, Ayers, subconsciously lowered his head and recited the poems in a simple and honest manner.

There's no way around it; some things are already etched into our DNA.

If you retaliate when Dr. Scumbag is giving you a lesson in love, be prepared for retaliation.

The wicked Dr. was teaching battlefield command, and the first thing he taught was to attack the enemy's mind first.

The honest Ayers once asked the Doctor how many girls he had picked up that month when the Doctor was taking a girl to visit a branch of the Army Without Borders. As a result, the girl slapped the Doctor on the spot and stormed off.

Unwittingly, Ayers ruined the doctor's plan to abduct an ignorant girl with exceptional physical strength and physiological endurance.

Later, Ayers was seduced by the vengeful doctor in drag, revealing his innocent love.

After treating his comrades to meals for three consecutive months, Ayers, encouraged by his fellow soldiers, finally mustered up the courage to fight.

On that incredibly romantic night, Ayers, dressed in an inexpensive suit, held flowers and confessed his love to the stunningly beautiful and elegant young woman under the bright moonlight. He poured out his heart about how he fell in love at first sight and loudly recited his self-composed, cheesy love poem copied into his palm.

That was the peak moment of the honest man's life; he had never been this nervous, not even when fighting the enemy on the battlefield.

Then he saw the girl he had long admired take off her wig, strike a strange pose, raise her thumb, and point at him.

"You think I'm Lulu, but actually I'm the Big Boss!"

That night, Ayers cried like a 200-pound child.

Chapter Fifty-Seven: You've Arrived Just in Time

"I didn't realize you were so capable right after waking up." Kal'tsit glanced at Lin Lu, her tone cold, her face darkening, clearly displeased. She said in a cold voice, "Since you're in such great shape, you don't need to rest for a couple more days, right? Why don't you just complete the return-to-work procedures today and start working right away?"

Lin Lu looked at Kal'tsit and said seriously, "Okay, no problem. I'll take care of it, you go to sleep."

"Hmph?" Kal'tsit raised an eyebrow and said in a deep voice, "Forget it, you're not ready to take over my work yet. I still have a lot of things to deal with, how can I take a break? Wait until you understand Rhodes Island better and realize what our work really means before you consider anything else."

“If Rhodes Island can’t function properly just because its leader takes a nap, then this heartless company should just go bankrupt as soon as possible, I’m serious.” Lin Lu shook his right hand, his knuckles cracking, his expression solemn. “Even if we have to use force, you’re not coming to work today.”

"...Nonsense!"

Who exactly is causing this trouble?

"……snort."

Kal'tsit glared at him irritably and tried to turn around and walk past Lin Lu, but unexpectedly he hugged her directly.

Lin Lu put one arm around Kal'tsit's shoulder and the other under her legs, pulling her into a princess carry.

"Ohhhhhhhhhh!!!"

The onlookers cheered, and Scout, the leader of Capcom, was practically raising a flag and shouting encouragement from behind.

"You! You! Put me down right now!"

Kal'tsit's face flushed red, not from embarrassment, but because of Lin Lu's hand.

A comfortable warmth emanated from his slender hands. His body, healed by Warfarin's blood magic, was in a sensitive period, with his senses amplified to an extreme degree. Kal'tsit's blood was heating up, quickly turning her skin a rosy hue. The accelerated blood circulation also brought on a wave of drowsiness, and a deep sleepiness spread overwhelmingly through her mind.

"What do you mean, 'you'? Go to sleep with me. If you keep yelling, we'll settle this right here."

Lin Lu snorted, picked up Kal'tsit, and walked towards the door, activating the PRTS system without any hindrance, and the isolation wall rose high.

Through the door, the azure light illuminated the little rabbit's bewildered face.

"Eh! Eh? This, this is... Doctor, you, and Dr. Kal'tsit?"

Amiya looked up at Lin Lu, then at Kal'tsit in Lin Lu's arms, her face flushed, and for a moment she was at a loss.

Kal'tsit wanted to explain something, but her mind was foggy and she couldn't come up with any words.

She struggled to raise her hand, then everything went black, and she fainted.

"I'm sorry, maybe I came at the wrong time."

Amiya shrugged, lowered her head slightly, unsure whether to be happy or frustrated.

Lin Lu shook his head and changed his holding position. He let Kal'tsit wrap her arms around his neck, rest her chin on his shoulder, and support her rounded buttocks with his right arm. It was like holding a young child, or like holding a big kitten, and he could clearly feel her heartbeat.

Lin Lu freed his left hand and gently rubbed Amiya's head between her rabbit ears.

"No, you came just in time."

"Eh... Eh!?"

In her panic, Amiya was grabbed by the waist with Lin Lu's left arm and carried away as if she were a human-shaped pillow.

"Doctor, Doctor! My skirt! It's about to fall down!"

Amiya was afraid of hurting the Doctor, so she didn't dare to move too hard. She could only barely hold onto her coat, her face flushed as she tried to cover her short skirt.

"Amiya, your breathing isn't very steady. How's your mental energy recovery from the overexertion you had in Chernobog? Are you alright?"

"Don't worry, Doctor, I'm fine now!" Amiya's bunny ears twitched happily, and she added softly, "Of course I'd have trouble breathing if I was being held like that, you idiot..."

"What did you say?"

"No, nothing... Oh, right!" Amiya murmured a couple of times before suddenly realizing something was wrong and asked, "Doctor, what are you doing? Where are you taking me and Dr. Kal'tsit?"

"I'm asking you two to go to sleep."

"Oh, sleeping... Huh? What?!"

Amiya was so frightened that her rabbit ears perked up. She didn't know if she had misheard or misunderstood.

"Doctor, it's still daytime! Can't we do this at night?"

"Huh? You've already pushed yourself to the limit, so why care about day or night?"

"This, this... but I'm still a minor, Doctor!"

“You should sleep more, especially since you are a minor. You are in the stage of growing.”

"Do you know what you're saying, Doctor?!"

Amiya covered her face with her hands. This was still too early for her. Or was it that her mindset was too conservative? Would a normal person start doing that at this age?

Lin Lu didn't pay much attention to Amiya's complicated feelings, but asked instead, "Amiya, where is Kal'tsit's room?"

"Ah... so thrill-seeking? And in Dr. Kal'tsit's room no less..."

"What did you say?"

This time, it was Lin Lu's turn to be confused.

Of course you should sleep in your own room, right? Why would you go to someone else's house?

"No, no, no, nothing!"

Amiya frantically clutched her hood with both hands, burying her head inside to hide her flushed cheeks.

She hesitated for a moment, then pointed in a direction and whispered something.

"Go this way..."

On this day, all the operators on Rhodes Island knew that the Doctor had returned.

With Amiya on his left and Kal'tsit on his right, Lin Lu ran off like the wind, leaving the Rhodes Island operators on duty in awe.

Those involved in the Chernobog rescue project watched the doctor leave with admiration, giving him a thumbs up, almost saying, "You're truly amazing."

However, those unaware of the situation might have thought Rhodes Island had been invaded again. Some operators, having heard some unpleasant rumors, anxiously tried to stop Lin Lu. But they were met with a glare from a pair of cobalt blue eyes, their legs went weak, and they collapsed to the ground, drenched in cold sweat, unable to straighten their backs.

"...Amiya, is this Kal'tsit's room?"

Lin Lu looked up at the sign on the door of the medical room. No matter how she thought about it, she couldn't believe that this was Kal'tsit's bedroom. This should be her office, right?

"Amiya?"

Lin Lu called out twice but received no response, so he put the girl down from his arms.

Amiya staggered, swaying unsteadily, her body radiating heat, practically steam rising from the top of her head.

Seeing the little rabbit's unsteady stance, Lin Lu quickly supported her shoulders and pulled down the girl's hood. He noticed that Amiya's face was unhealthy red, her expression was somewhat blank, and she hiccuped as if she were drunk. She then very proactively reached out and hugged his arm, affectionately rubbing her cheek against his.

"Doctor... hehehe."

"Well, even rickshaws can make you get seasick."

Lin Lu was completely unaware of the unique magic of his hands, and didn't realize it was because he had been holding Amiya for too long.

Holding a large adult and a small child, looking like the head of a family of three, Lin Lu pushed open the door to the medical room.

"Who is it?"

A pink-haired Carter's medical operator slowly turned around, holding a work summary book for the night shift handover. Her fair skin and pale red eyes shimmered like jelly. As she tilted her head slightly in a puzzled expression, the pink and white rabbit ears on either side of her hair fluttered, giving one an inexplicable urge to play with them.

"Dr. Kal'tsit? And Miss Amiya! Um, may I ask who you are... the Doctor?"

"...Hello, Ansel."

Lin Lu gave him a deep look and couldn't help but sigh.

male.

so cute.

It turned out to be a man.

Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Tower of Babel Collapses

"What do you think of the Doctor now?"

Rhodes Island's core forces, the survivors of Babel, and elite operators with extensive battlefield experience sat together, analyzing the Doctor's current situation.

Don't be fooled by their serious expressions, sweaty palms, and tense faces. To put it simply, they were like a homeroom teacher announcing that the last class before school ends would be a self-study period. Everyone pretended to be studying diligently, eagerly watching the teacher leave... Once the teacher was back in the office, they all tossed their textbooks aside and started chatting, playing around, and doing whatever they wanted.

The sweat on my palms was entirely from nervous excitement.

"Doctor... Although she looks very young, I didn't expect her to be so well-developed. Dr. Kal'tsit is so lucky, it's wonderful." A female operator exclaimed.

"There's something wrong with you."

"Tsk, I wasn't the only one watching. And you, your eyes were practically glowing red, and you still have the nerve to criticize me, tsk tsk."

Everyone glanced at a demon operative, but the operative acted nonchalantly, as if he had nothing to lose.

There are plenty of people who lust after the doctor, and the ringleader of these perverts is none other than Warfarin, the Sarkaz Blood Demon who sits atop the central computer, swinging her black-stockinged legs.

Despite her appearance as a mere 12-year-old girl, her childlike voice and small stature often lull those unfamiliar with her into a false sense of security. In reality, she is one of Rhodes Island's veterans. In the absence of Kal'tsit, Amiya, and the Doctor, she has the authority to directly manage the PRTS system and take command of all operators.

As for her real age?

Anyway, no one would believe me if I told them.
