I'm in the Ark, a player.

A good businessman is one who can make good use of everything that can bring him profit!

"Is it possible that these people are from the Unarmored Alliance, and they were planning to hunt down these infected, but I saved them?"

Qin Tianling pointed to the group of infected people he had protected behind him. They were standing by the shed, still somewhat shaken.

“They can serve as witnesses.”

"Criminal! Stop making excuses for your actions!!!"

The lead policeman shoved his rifle forward and shouted,

"Surrender obediently and accept legal judgment! If you make any moves, we will use deadly weapons!"

Speechless. He can't listen to what people are saying; typical Casimir cop mentality.

"What does it mean?"

Qin Tianling tilted his head, looking at these guys who seemed to be courting death with a puzzled expression.

"I didn't want to be a five-star good citizen, but you guys forced me to be one."

He flicked his longsword, blood dripping from it, and Qin Tianling was about to charge forward and start fighting.

but!

Before Qin Tianling could make a move, a figure blocked his way.

He is an infected person, male, and also a resident of this camp.

"He's telling the truth! Someone did attack and torture us! He's the one who saved us!"

"Nonsense! He clearly tortured and killed others!"

You're actually speaking up for a murderer; it seems you're an accomplice!

"Guards, take this accomplice to the police station as well!"

The lead policeman said sternly, "Once you've taken the money, you have to be meticulous in your work."

"Then just copy me off too!"

Then came another figure, a young woman who still looked terrified, but she bit her lip and stepped forward, her shoulders trembling slightly with fear.

"Me too! If you're going to arrest him, arrest me too!"

The voice rang out again from the other side, and a middle-aged man with a limp walked over.

"That's right, we are citizens of the Great Knight Territory! If you have the guts, arrest us all!"

Bah! You damn cop, you can't even tell the difference between innocence and truth!

Then came the fourth, the fifth—many figures emerged from various corners of the infected camp.

Some were limping, some had unbandaged wounds on their arms, and some still had bloodstains on their faces from where the blade had grazed them.

They gathered together as if by prior arrangement and walked up to Qin Tianling.

Then, shoulder to shoulder, arm in arm, they formed a human wall, like a dam built of flesh and blood, blocking Qin Tianling's way.

Qin Tianling saved them, and they really had nothing to repay him with.

But anyone with a discerning eye could see that something was off about this group of police officers.

They couldn't just stand by and watch Qin Tianling be captured like this.

Those who carry firewood for the masses should not be left to freeze to death in the wind and snow.

Here's a brief introduction to Python:

"It was supposed to be a crossover of anime, but it's actually a crossover of PicacG and banned anime."

Ame no Michiko originally thought he would live a peaceful life with his sister by collecting rent...

Until a labyrinth appeared beneath his house with the ability to determine the number of times a player has reached a certain level, the worldview of Ama no Kōki was completely reshaped!

My sister only makes eye contact with me once a day.

Be a bad kid starting today!

Does interacting with robots count towards the number of experience points?

The Girl Knight's Station

"No... can we put these minor issues aside for now?"

Having finally made thorough preparations for his first exploration of the labyrinth, Amazuki broke out in a cold sweat:

"Why am I already level 50 as soon as I enter the maze?! I was still level 50 until yesterday!"

"Aren't there any normal anime and manga?"

"...What do you mean by 'Fate having a separate region'?"

Why is my crossover anime world set in an alternate universe?

Chapter 108, One for All, All for One (Part 2)

Looking at the infected people blocking his way, Qin Tianling suddenly realized something.

Am I being protected by them?

Am I... protected by the people I once protected?

He originally wanted to complain that these guys were getting in the way of him taking down those ungrateful cops,

But now, looking at this group of figures standing in front of him, Qin Tianling didn't even realize that he was smiling.

What's going on...? This performance is actually pretty good...

Not bad, I quite like it.

"Damn infected!"

The Qasimir police officers present frowned.

Faced with this human wall formed by infected individuals, the Kasimir police present really couldn't arrest them all.

We didn't bring that many handcuffs or cable ties!

Secondly, no matter how unwilling they are to admit it, these infected individuals are indeed citizens of the Kazimierz Grand Knights, and as Kazimierz police, they cannot kill citizens.

The lead police officer frowned. He never imagined that such a simple matter would turn out like this.

"You are obstructing official business!"

"We will not allow you to capture those who are not knights!"

A man shouted from the crowd.

This made the lead police officer even more dissatisfied.

He had already freed one hand to draw the rubber baton from his waist.

He knew exactly how to best handle this situation.

When you encounter such a troublesome infected person, as long as you deal with one of them, the others will scatter like birds and beasts.

He raised his rubber baton, about to swing it down...

A gaze, cold as an arrow, shot towards him, and his most primal instinct to sense danger made him abruptly stop what he was doing.

Turning around, the person casting that gaze was none other than the one being protected behind someone who wasn't a knight.

For some reason, in that instant, he only felt that if he really smashed it down... he would die!

His movements remained frozen for a long time before he finally slowly withdrew the baton from his hand.

Just as he was putting away his baton, a voice came from the side again.

"Tsk, this is boring. If you're so capable, just start fighting!"

A man holding a mobile phone peeked out from the side, immediately attracting the attention of both groups of people present.

Seeing that both groups were looking at him, he waved his hand dismissively.

Why are you all looking at me?

I'm just a reporter from a wine magazine passing by; don't mind me, you can continue.

I originally just wanted to be a paparazzi and see if there was any gossip about the Knights that wasn't actually his, but I never expected there to be such a good show to watch.

The fact that the Kazimir police have smeared the hero who protected the infected as a murderer is definitely headline news!

He'd even thought of a title—"Shocking! The Kazimierz Police Are Actually Craving Something That Isn't a Knight?"

"This is a police investigation, no filming allowed!"

The police pointed at the reporter.

"It's too late, officer. I was live-streaming; turning it off now is pointless."

Instead of worrying about me, you should think about what to do now.

Damn it!

Upon hearing the reporter's question, the lead police officer's face turned extremely ugly.

After thinking it over, he finally pressed the walkie-talkie on his shoulder.

"Calling headquarters, there are infected people causing trouble here, requesting additional support."

They have no choice now; they cannot harm the infected, nor can they simply leave.

Even if taking action results in infected individuals being photographed, which could have negative consequences, it's still acceptable.

Leaving now would be a sign of weakness and would have a negative impact.

This kind of situation, where one person is stuck in a rut and both ends are blocked, is indeed difficult to handle. Therefore, it would be best for him to have someone put pressure on these infected people and make them give up on their own initiative.

The support from headquarters arrived very quickly.

In less than five minutes, the riot control vehicle appeared and stopped at the street corner.

Armed with transparent riot shields and equipped with rubber crossbows, the mobile team jumped out of their vehicles and formed two neat rows in front of the wall of infected. Their shields stood side-by-side, creating a transparent wall, and they steadily approached the infected.

As they approached the infected, they repeatedly struck the edge of their shields with their batons to create a sound that would frighten them.

Their actions were indeed effective; faced with such immense pressure, many infected individuals within the human wall began to feel fear.

But it wasn't just the police who arrived at the scene; there were also infected people from other camps.

From the east, from the west, from those forgotten, remote plots on the city's outskirts, groups of people are converging on this place.

People have arrived at all the infected camps that Qin Tianling had visited before—those fifteen camps with roughly the same toilet-cleaning missions, those fifteen camps he had saved from the Wuzhou Alliance.

Some of them saw the live stream and informed others, including people from other camps.

So they came.

At that moment, they set off from different directions and different streets, meeting by chance at various intersections. After confirming that they shared the same goal, they looked at each other, nodded, and then walked side by side.

They trudged through the streets at night, past neon-lit shops, weaving through layers of darkness in the cracks of their city, until they arrived here, stood beside the human wall, and gathered in the open space before the camp.

They stood in front of Qin Tianling.

The human wall grew thicker and thicker.

From the initial single row, to the later three rows, and now to an uncountable number,

Each time someone joins, it's as if they're adding a sliver of courage to the infected within the human wall.

I'm no longer so afraid of these riot police officers.

The situation has reached a stalemate again.

In the very end, no more infected individuals were found.

Because most of the people from the fifteen camps were standing here.
