I am on the Ark, a succubus, pure and innocent.

.......

Rooftop.

Mephisto, sensing the disappearing vessels, went completely berserk: "How could they be so cruel as to mercilessly kill an enemy who has lost the ability to resist!"

Can't wait any longer!

Mephisto's face darkened abruptly, his golden eyes filled with malice, and he unleashed his full power to cast a spell: "Rise, my flock, slaughter them all!"

In the corridor.

Bai Yue looked at the Reunion soldier twitching on the ground, raised an eyebrow, and said contemptuously, "They're desperate."

He then stopped Chen Huijie from swinging his knife to cut off his head:

"Chen Chen, wait a minute, let me try it out."

"Experiment with what?" Chen Huijie asked, puzzled. What was there to experiment with about this thing?

Bai Yue smiled faintly: "Of course it's my magic. I'm very curious whether my magic can affect them, who are theoretically already dead."

Chen Huijie nodded and stood protectively in front of him: "Okay, then you can try it. If anything goes wrong, I'll eliminate him immediately."

"Hehe, Chenchen, you're so nice!" Bai Yue smiled and hugged her from behind.

"Hey, you silly girl, are you fighting?" Chen Huijie said irritably.

"It's alright, just a mere grunt." Bai Yue glanced at the host soldier who had stood up and whose Originium crystal clusters were beginning to proliferate, and commanded: *Stop*

His movements stopped immediately.

Bai Yue smiled. The charm worked. So...

*Poor thing, go and take revenge! Go find the person who made you this way and take your revenge!*

Revenge, revenge, revenge!

The two words echoed repeatedly in his mind, his remaining consciousness burning with rage, as he muttered intermittently, "Revenge! Mephisto, revenge!..."

He turned and ran towards the stairs, heading towards the rooftop.

Chen Huijie was somewhat surprised: "That's it? You can manipulate other people's behavior just by saying a few words?"

"Yeah, that's it. What did you think? Did you think I was going to sing a song?"

Bai Yue joked, then patted her shoulder: "Alright, let's follow. He'll lead us to that Mephisto guy. Speaking of which, he got away last time, but I won't let him get away this time."

Chen Huijie followed, asking, "How strong is he in combat?"

Bai Yue, holding Shuangxing's hand, followed in her footsteps and said indifferently, "What else can we do? His ability in direct combat is terrible. You'd probably be 30% or 70% even with him."

Chen Huijie was confused. "30/70 split? Didn't you say he wasn't good at fighting?"

Bai Yue chuckled and said, "I mean you only need three strikes to cut him into seven pieces."

"Nonsense," Chen Huijie scolded playfully. "What if we add his magic?"

Bai Yue thought for a moment and reminded him, "It's pretty much the same. As long as you can get close to him, he's doomed. But you have to be careful of Faust, who's always attached to him. His crossbow bolts are very powerful and come with Originium Arts, so they can explode."

"He was the one who interfered with me last time, allowing his men to rescue Mephistopheles. Oh, by the way, Faust has a spell that grants invisibility to the entire group, so be careful of sneak attacks."

"Okay, I see."

Bai Yue smiled and shook Shuangxing's hand: "Actually, it's nothing. I'll have Miss Shuangxing cast a spell later to freeze them. I don't believe they can hide. What do you say, Miss Shuangxing?"

Froststar closed her eyes and cursed inwardly:

'I'm swearing at you, Mephistopheles and Faust! Good luck to you both!'

The frigid frost condensed on the ground, and the biting cold permeated the air.

"come yet!"

Mephisto was filled with both fear and excitement. His already not-so-bright mind was now almost driven to madness. He waved his hand to further enhance his Originium Arts and commanded the host soldiers around him:

"Let's all attack together and block them in the stairwell. Use our advantages to prevent them from getting up here!"

Enhanced by his Originium Arts, the herd's bodies swelled again, with the proliferating Originium crystal clusters covering most of their bodies, greatly amplifying their power.

They roared and rushed haphazardly into the stairwell.

Their bloated bodies and sharp, proliferating Originium made them particularly eerie in the corridor; an ordinary person would likely contract Oripathy from even the slightest scratch.

However, their opponents were no ordinary people.

The host soldiers, who were slightly smaller than them, charged straight at them.

"Revenge...kill...Mephisto!..."

They kept repeating this phrase, filled with boundless hatred, completely unafraid of their powerful kin, and used the sharp Originium crystal clusters on their bodies to smash into their opponents' bodies.

Noisy!

The battle between the two sides was fierce, with the hard Originium crystal clusters colliding constantly, producing extremely harsh sounds.

"Hmph, a death throes." Bai Yue raised her head and sneered, bypassing the obstacles to look directly at the crazed host soldiers, and commanded: *Recognize the enemy that causes you suffering, and take action.*

The command startled the host soldiers blocking the gate; their remaining sanity caused them to murmur:

"Pain...pain...Mephisto! Tear him...to shreds!"

Then the herd merged and turned to rush towards the rooftop, their target Mephistopheles.

Chen Huijie gripped the blade in her hand and quickly walked towards the rooftop entrance. She peeked out and saw crossbow bolts being fired from an uninhabited area at the out-of-control host soldiers. She immediately locked onto several approximate locations.

She silently gathered sharp magic on the blade, and without turning her head, said to Bai Yue, "I'll rush out first. You observe carefully and find an opportunity to take care of the crossbowmen in the shadows."

"No problem." Bai Yue nodded, patted Froststar beside her, and laughed, "But I don't have any ranged attack capabilities, so it'll have to be up to you."

Froststar didn't reply, seemingly ignoring him.

Bai Yue smiled gently and said calmly, "If you don't want to, I won't force you. But their lives... heh, I don't know how to hold back, so don't blame me later."

Froststar gritted her teeth, wanting to say that their life or death was none of her business, but she had to admit that she really couldn't let go of these two brats she had watched grow up, even though Mephisto had rotted away to this extent.

In the end, she gave up and whispered, "If I do it, you'll let them go?"

Bai Yue smiled slightly: "As long as you don't go too far, at least they won't die here right now."

Froststar closed her eyes and remained silent for two seconds, then made up her mind and said softly, "Release my spellcasting restrictions, and I will grant your request."

"of course."

Bai Yue smiled brightly. Haha, the big white rabbit has finally started to obey! Once she's obeyed the first time, she'll obey the second. It seems that making her her loyal dog... no, her loyal rabbit is just around the corner!

......

The rooftop at this moment.

Mephistopheles stared in disbelief at the herd charging towards him, muttering, "Impossible, this can't be! They're clearly unconscious, how can that guy still control them!?"

Seeing his appearance, Faust quickly shot an arrow, pinning the leading herd to the ground.

Other phantom crossbowmen also fired their crossbow bolts.

Their shooting accuracy was extremely high; they hit the target almost every time.

But the herd remained unfazed, continuing their desperate charge towards Mephistopheles despite the crossbow bolts lodged in their bodies.

Seeing the herd he had pinned to the ground rise, Faust was somewhat bewildered. How could this be? Had his skills deteriorated?

However, upon closer inspection, he immediately realized something was wrong. "Suka, Mephisto, why are you still treating them? Don't you want to die sooner?!"

Ignoring the risk of revealing his position, he hurriedly shouted, "Mephisto, stop the spell!"

"Huh? Oh, oh," Mephisto snapped out of his daze and quickly stopped the spell.

But it was too late. The host soldier had already lunged forward, his face contorted like a ravenous demon from hell, muttering, "Me...Fi...S...Te!..."

The powerful, out-of-control hands of the herd grabbed at Mephisto's body.

But Faust was fast enough; he fired a powerful crossbow bolt that sent the closest host soldier to Mephistopheles flying, accompanied by a powerful explosion that sent Mephistopheles flying several meters away from the danger zone.

At this moment, Chen Huijie had already rushed up to the rooftop. Taking advantage of the moment when the Phantom Crossbowmen's attention was drawn to the host soldiers, she dashed directly toward the crossbow firing position that had already been locked on.

A phantom crossbowman immediately spotted her and warned over the communicator: "Everyone be careful, the Guardian Dragon Girl is coming up!"

"Damn it!" Faust was caught in a dilemma, faced with the host soldiers attacking Mephistopheles and Chen Huijie attacking his own squad. Who should he save?!

But he hesitated for less than half a second before firing his crossbow at the host soldier, giving Mephisto a chance to catch his breath.

My best friend is more important than my subordinates!

But suddenly, his gaze abruptly shifted to the rooftop entrance.

He stared at that beautiful figure, at the gradually gathering icy magic, his internal alarm bells blaring, but as a sniper, calmness was the last thing he lacked.

He keenly observed Bai Yue standing next to Froststar.

He's the one who controlled Frostnova!

Faust identified his target and immediately fired a powerful crossbow bolt at him with zero frames.

The moment the crossbow bolt was fired, Faust's heart seemed to shoot out with it. He stared intently at the arrowhead, hoping for a successful strike.

If the crossbow bolt hits its mark, even if the guy doesn't die, he will inevitably be unable to maintain control of Froststar, and then the opportunity to turn the tide will arrive.

But ideals are beautiful, while reality is harsh.

Bai Yue raised her eyes and calmly said: *Defense and Counterattack*

Froststar rolled her eyes. "Tsk, why don't I just shoot you dead?" But she still raised her hand and waved it, the sharp ice spikes detonating the crossbow bolts in mid-air, creating a cloud of ice dust.

"Qi!"

Upon seeing this, Faust immediately abandoned his attack, leaped off the platform, and, taking advantage of the lingering dust, grabbed Mephistopheles and charged toward the pre-arranged aircraft.

"You go first, I'll cover your retreat!"

Faust pushed him onto the aircraft, resolutely turned back, and gave the order into the communicator: "All personnel retreat!"

"Faust!" Mephistopheles cried out in anguish.

"Go quickly!" Faust didn't turn around, fired a crossbow bolt to stop Chen Huijie, and covered his men's retreat.

"No...Faust, we must go together."

Mephisto muttered to himself, his gaze fixed on the phantom crossbowmen that were gradually materializing before him. His eyes grew increasingly crazed, and his fingers glowed with white light: "Useless scum, make the most of your remaining strength and open a path for us to survive!"

The phantom crossbowmen screamed in terror, quickly transforming into deformed host soldiers, then turned and roared.

Faust listened to the sounds behind him, his eyes filled with despair. He dared not turn around, but mechanically loaded his crossbow and fired, trying to numb himself that he was still saving his companions.

Chen Huijie was deeply shocked by this scene; she never imagined that someone could be born to such an extent.

Bai Yue gasped in astonishment: "It really was born!"

Froststar couldn't refute it, and even felt a little like cleaning up the mess herself. But she raised her finger and then lowered it again, the icicles condensing and shattering in the air, repeating this several times, before finally letting go.

She couldn't bring herself to do it.

Bai Yue glanced at her movements, her lips twitching slightly, her pink eyes shining as she looked at the host of the Phantom Crossbowman, who had been mutated, and silently thought: *Revenge, catharsis*

The host immediately turned around and grabbed Mephisto with lightning speed, opening his blood-red maw in his terrified gaze.

"What do you want to do? Get out of here! Get out of here! Aaaaaaaahhhhhh!"

Faust listened, then knelt in despair, tears streaming down his face, his eyes filled with a whirlwind of images.

"Ino, look... Ino... Ino, I can't sing anymore... Ino, Ino, Ino..."

Not long after, Mephistopheles stopped crying out in pain. On his deathbed, he murmured softly:

"...Ino, I was wrong."

Faust could hold on any longer; the crossbow bolt fell to the ground, and he closed his eyes in despair.

"I'm sorry, Sasha."
