A Villain's Journey Begins in the Type-Moon World

"However, there will inevitably be a lot of bloodshed in the south. After all, the Reunion Movement used to rely on the terrain and became an elite force through constant fighting."

"But given the current situation, there's no way to give them much time to train. We can only buy time by sacrificing lives."

"The reason he raised a large army in the south was probably to disperse the Ursus Army Group... to prevent the army group from sending all its troops to the north."

"After all, the south is the army group's main base for transporting supplies, and many nobles associated with the military live here... Once an uprising breaks out here, the army group will be unable to assemble a large force to attack the main force in the north."

After hearing this, Amiya opened the map and looked at the current power distribution of Ursus and Reunion. She couldn't help but exclaim, "If that's the case, then the situation has completely changed."

"The north, as the main force, continuously consolidates its gains and accumulates strength. In the central region, a large number of guerrilla forces based in rural and mountainous areas disrupt the enemy's deployment, slow down the army group's assembly speed, and force the army group to divide its troops to defend."

"If another uprising breaks out in the south, the army group will have to defend both the north and the south... With such a division of forces, the Integration Movement may be able to buy time with space. As the conflict is worn down, Integration will become stronger and Ursus will become weaker. If no other external forces intervene... the ownership of the snowfield is probably only a matter of time."

"Once this idea takes hold, all the people will become the flames that unite this army and ignite a revolution..."

Kal'tsit's eyes revealed a deep sense of apprehension:

"This person's schemes and control over people's hearts are truly terrifying. As long as he stirs up a large enough revolution in the south to ignite it, the chain reaction will turn the entire snowfield into a sea of ​​fire that will overthrow Ursus."

Chapter 239: Not an organization I like, so I'll just pass on it.

Upon hearing Kal'tsit's assessment, even Amiya couldn't help but reassess the Reunion Movement.

"Should we be thankful that we share the same goals as the Reunion Movement?"

At this moment, Yato spoke up and asked.

"To be thankful? Probably not. I remain cautiously optimistic. Whether he is a revolutionary or just a schemer who is once again exploiting the masses is still unknown."

Kal'tsit still coldly said:

"Although his ideals are beyond question, the methods he used are really inconsistent with his idealistic image."

"He knew that once the unification movement gained momentum, those who possessed the manuals would inevitably be purged, yet he still distributed these manuals to places outside his control. This inevitably led to a backlash from the nobility, further exacerbating the conflict."

"Then he used this to quickly win people's hearts. Just as Amiya just analyzed, once it was done, the snowfield would fall completely into their hands."

"They could have gone underground first and spread their ideas instead of starting the uprising now... Ursus wasn't completely decayed yet, but he orchestrated it all, accelerating it by decades."

"He was capable of writing a great book with profound ideas and ideals like 'The Root of Evil,' but the things he did and the schemes he devised were all the methods of those ambitious people... Although perfect, they were extremely cold and cruel."

After hearing Kal'tsit's assessment, Yato fell silent, not daring to touch Kal'tsit's brow again. Amiya, however, sensing the turmoil in Kal'tsit's mind through her innate Originium Arts, offered words of comfort:

“Kal'tsit, that’s a bit biased. The Reunion Movement was established quite early. At that time, neither the leader Talulah nor that mysterious leader had joined the organization.”

"And now, this is the only path to victory they can take. They have no other choice... Rather than blaming them, we should ask why the world has become like this, with people hurting each other and oppressing the lower classes from top to bottom."

"Doctor... I know that the reason you're so resistant is because you see that person's shadow in their style of doing things... right? That's why you're worried, worried that they might be next..."

Amiya didn't continue speaking because Yato was present.

"..." Kal'tsit naturally knew who Amiya was referring to as "that person," which was why she remained silent.

Amiya was right; she saw the shadow of the former "Doctor" in the way that leader of the Reunion Movement acted.

The same was true of the evil spirit of the Tower of Babel. It shared the same ideals as Princess Theresa, but its ruthlessness in planning and fighting was unlike that of a normal human being.

In her eyes, everything—human behavior, military battles—was quantifiable and calculable data; she could sacrifice whoever needed to be sacrificed without a second thought. Yet, without a doubt, she led the Tower of Babel to maximum victory each time.

But it was precisely because of this kind of person that he ultimately betrayed his ideals, betrayed everyone, and betrayed that prince.

Over the years, she has tried more than once to investigate the truth of what happened back then. She wanted to understand why that person betrayed everyone. At the same time, she harbored a deep sense of vigilance towards people like "The Doctor."

"Yato, is that leader still in that Reunion Force?" Seeing that Kal'tsit was no longer speaking, Amiya did not try to persuade her further. She understood that this knot in her heart could only be untied when "Doctor" returned.

Therefore, she turned to Yato and asked about the leader's next move.

"They left, and according to what they said, they were going to help those who were imprisoned in other cities," Yato said.

"Is that so? Okay, Yato, I'll probably have to trouble you to go back again. Also, contact the other squads and have them keep a close eye on the Führer's movements. If there's any news, send a telegram immediately and cooperate with the Führer's actions as much as possible."

Amiya said seriously, "Of course, the premise is that my own safety is guaranteed."

"Yes." After receiving the order, Yato hurriedly rushed out.

"...Amiya, you've instructed your agents outside to keep a close eye on that leader. Are you planning to make contact with him?" Kal'tsit asked.

“Well, that’s not all…” Amiya said slowly, biting her nails. “Since he’s going to infiltrate various cities to rescue those people, he certainly won’t avoid Chernobog…”

“I want to... ask him to help us bring back the ‘Doctor’…”

Upon hearing Amiya's idea, Kal'tsit frowned, intending to stop her, but was interrupted by Amiya, who had seen through her thoughts beforehand:

“Don’t rush to refuse, Kal’tsit… This is the most likely way I can think of to safely bring the Doctor out. Although it might expose the Doctor and the secret of that sarcophagus… weighing the pros and cons, this may be the best option we can make.”

"Moreover, as long as we keep our mouths shut, we can at least keep the Doctor's identity, if not the sarcophagus... As long as we can bring the Doctor back without causing too many casualties to Rhodes Island, I think it's worth a try."

After hearing Amiya's words, Kal'tsit couldn't think of any rebuttal for a moment. Besides, her little bunny was already so opinionated, so she couldn't really argue further. She could only nod somewhat helplessly and say:

"Alright, since you've made up your mind, then go ahead and give it a try."

"Thank you for your trust, Kal'tsit." Amiya's expression was noticeably happier, and she always believed that people like the Doctor and the leader of Reunion were capable of solving the problem of the Infected.

However, what Amiya didn't expect was that Wang Chong, the person she wanted to cooperate with, didn't intend to involve Rhodes Island this time.

After all, someone else was also eyeing the talent of a certain "doctor".

……

"Huh? You're asking me why I joined Reunion instead of Rhodes Island?"

“Good question… How should I put it… Rhodes Island…”

"If it's not an organization I like, I'll just pass on it."

In the dark alleys of Chernobog's slums, Wang Chong looked at the masked woman, Reberba (a branch of the Perro, also known as the canine branch), who was exhaling smoke, and slowly answered.

As for who this Reberba is, Wang Chong has a lot of fun to talk about.

She is a famous abstract person in the Reunion Movement, the most beloved villainous boss of the Pushers, possessing the most diverse and creative ways to die, once scared to death by a child named Lupo, and the most humiliating executioner after coming ashore—the medium cup of medium cups!

She is Lyudmila Ilinichna, codename: The Kingkiller (try not to laugh).

"Well said, I don't like Rhodes Island either. So when they sneakily sent people to support us, I drove them away immediately, but they just wouldn't leave."

Lyudmila, the Kingslayer, wore an expression of disgust, but Wang Chong knew that the reason she hated Rhodes Island was simply because of that old woman named Kal'tsit.

As for why Lyudmila knew that Kal'tsit was on Rhodes Island, it was naturally because of the time when Amiya and Kal'tsit negotiated with Talulah, which made everyone in the Reunion Movement aware of it.

Lyudmila, now a member of the Reunion Movement, had naturally received the news, which is why she had always been unfriendly to the people of Rhodes Island.

If Rhodes Island hadn't actually been cooperating with the Reunion Movement, her attitude would probably have been even worse.

"However, considering that they are relatively honest and have indeed been helpful to our department, we will let them be. However, as per your request, Your Majesty, they will not know that you have come to Chernobog."

Lyudmila said slowly:

"Speaking of which, why did the leader come to the south? Is it simply to rescue the civilians who have been arrested?"

"Ah... Before answering that question, Lyudmila, I also have some questions I'd like to ask you."

Wang Chong turned his head to look at the citizens outside the alley, who were walking along the street with their heads down, and then said:

What are your thoughts on the city of Chernobog?

"Hopeless..."

Lyudmila answered without hesitation, her eyes burning with deep disgust and hatred. "You Lin, what about you? You Lin, what about you...?"

Her mother died in this city, in its polluted air, and under its oppressive policies. This place, touted as the rising capital of Ursus, was seeping with cannibalistic blood.

Indeed, with the support of the Ursus Emperor, Chernobog became the largest industrial mobile city, shouldering the important task of the empire's transformation. It was a key pilot city for turning Ursus from a war machine with no production capacity into an industrial empire with advanced heavy industry.

At the same time, this city also became the base of those newly emerging nobles. They rose to power by stepping on the corpses of countless workers, sucking their marrow and exploiting their surplus value and even their lives to fill their pockets.

Ursus was already corrupt and decadent, and even if it wanted to transform its economy through industrialization, it would be powerless to change its corrupt class system and the corresponding system that maintained class rule.

Ultimately, Chernobog became a tool for the wealthy and nobles to line their own pockets. Meanwhile, the people of Chernobog lived in a state of constant oppression, oblivious to the danger and unable to muster any resistance.

This is the Chernobyl she saw... Even though she had matured somewhat under the guidance of the Reunion Movement's manual and was no longer completely controlled by her hatred, she was still utterly disappointed with the city.

"Even though I distributed the brochures, the workers seemed completely numb to it and ignored it..."

Lyudmila bit her lip, looking exasperated, and said:

"Even though I distributed the brochures, the workers seemed completely numb to it and ignored it..."

Lyudmila bit her lip, looking exasperated, and said:

"Some people were even arrested and then tried to betray us. They almost caused my people to suffer heavy losses. The people in this city have lost all their backbone and are completely beyond saving."

"They're the Empire's dogs! No, calling them dogs is an exaggeration! They're like turtles and tortoises! No matter how much you scold them, they won't wake up!"

Chapter 240: General Junying

"Calm down, calm down. Sigh, young people are always impulsive. But having drive is a good thing."

Wang Chong patted Lyudmila on the shoulder, then said with a smile:

"Actually, you are quite lucky, Kingslayer."

"I'm lucky?" Lyudmila frowned, wondering if her head of state was being sarcastic or mocking her.

“I didn’t mean to mock you. The reason I said you were lucky is because you did encounter a difficulty that all members of the Reunion Movement would face sooner or later.”

Wang Chong slowly said:

"Revolution is never a smooth process. In the process of overthrowing tyranny and evil, we often encounter people whose views are contrary to our own."

"The reason things went so smoothly before was mainly because people in rural and urban areas had simpler mindsets and had been oppressed to the point of starvation. They had no way out, so they embraced the integration movement. They were naturally the seeds of integration."

"The same is true for those three cities in the north. The people in the cities cannot solve their food and clothing problems because of the harsh winter and cold environment, so they have joined the Reunion Movement."

Then, Wang Chong paused, pointed to the busy citizens outside, and said:

"But the industrial city clusters in the south are different. Although these workers do indeed suffer the same fate as the miners, ultimately being exploited to death. The entire population of the city also suffers from overwork and illness under the high-pressure policies. But this is, after all, a slow process, like boiling a frog in warm water, slowly killing people."

"So even if they understand the principles, even if they know that someone is exploiting and oppressing them... they won't immediately pick up a knife and turn it on those who exploit them." (The last sentence appears to be a nonsensical string of characters and doesn't translate directly.)

"People always have a sense of luck... They won't feel pain until the fire directly burns their heads, and they certainly won't choose to resist in order to give up their existing lives... But when they die from overwork and want to regret it, they are already too weak to do so."

"Do you understand? This is reality. Our ideas are certainly valuable, and our theories certainly explain the process of exploitation very clearly... but understanding the principles and putting them into practice are always two different things."

"..." After listening to Wang Chong's explanation, Lyudmila calmed down a bit. Then, a helpless expression appeared on her face as she said, "In that case, wouldn't those brochures be completely useless? They might even expose us."

"That's not how it works. Once they understand what's in our brochure and know the principles behind it, the seeds of integration have already been planted in their hearts. As long as we wait for the right time, those seeds will ripen quickly, like rain after a long drought, and they will eventually become part of us."

Wang Chong chuckled and said, "Besides, if it were truly useless, how did you and Alex manage to gather dozens of core integration members and hundreds of external members?"

"...But this speed is too slow, especially now that they've started arresting people, it's no longer appropriate for us to distribute the propaganda brochures."

Lyudmila complained, "Besides, how long will it take for the time to come right? How long will it take for the 'sweet rain' you speak of to fall?"

"When the chickens have finished pecking at the rice, the dogs have finished eating the noodles, and the fire has burned through the lock, the sweet rain will naturally arrive... oh no, it will descend."

"?"

"Ahem, what I mean is, I have a nickname, which is Timely Rain (meaning 'Not Sending the River')."

Wang Chong patted Lyudmila on the shoulder again and said earnestly:

"So, now you understand why I came here, right? Now you understand why I said you were lucky, right?"

"...Is the Führer trying to help us solve this problem? Is that why he came to the south?" Lyudmila asked after her mind raced for a moment and finally understood what Wang Chong was saying.

"Okay, take us on a tour first, let me see what the daily procedures are like in your integrated branch."

Wang Chong said with a smile.

……

When the group arrived at the underground street, they quickly found a medical clinic.

"Welcome, welcome... It's you again, Lyudmila. Instead of staying outside, you come running around here. Aren't you afraid of being caught by the Ursus forces?"

The door opened, and a kind-looking old man with a hawk-like appearance opened the door. When he saw Lyudmila, he looked very troubled, held his forehead, and said.

“Grandpa, aren’t you the same? Right now, they’re arresting infected people and people associated with the brochures everywhere. You still dare to open your shop and take in those infected people.”

Lyudmila replied irritably.

"Hmm? Judging from your appearance, you've brought quite a few guests." At this moment, the old man with the eagle-like appearance noticed the man and five women following behind Lyudmila and couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, some people from my superiors have come, so I brought them here to check out the daily procedures for the integration of Chernobog."

After Lyudmila finished explaining, she turned to Wang Chong and introduced him:

"This is Herag, the head of the Azazel Clinic, which was a vital pillar for the infected in Chernobog before we arrived."
