Reincarnation NPC, but Arknights

Yes, Bai Ye was driving a motorcycle, chasing after the training operators across the frozen ground.

This inspiration came from old movies and TV shows he had watched in his previous life.

Although he had forgotten the plot, he still remembered very clearly the scene where Seven chased people in his jeep.

This is a good training method, which can not only improve physical fitness, but also allow these prospective operators to become familiar with how to move quickly on snow and frozen ground.

Using a locomotive can create a sufficient sense of oppression.

"Um, just so you know! There might be something wrong with the brakes on this motorcycle, so please go a little faster! I might really not be able to stop!"

Bai Ye laughed merrily as he drove his motorcycle to "chase" the Rhodes Island kids.

……

Five kilometers later, Bai Ye slowed down the vehicle, allowing the reserve agents to walk slowly, rest, and recover their strength.

"Why do I have to participate in this kind of training?!"

Ansel collapsed halfway there due to exhaustion, and he almost thought he was going to see Theresa. But then Bai Ye reached out and pulled him onto the four-wheeled motorcycle.

"You're supposed to be an operator from Rhodes Island's medical department, how can you be so pathetic?!"

"I'm so sorry, so sorry!" Ansel cried, his face contorted with grief. "I'm so sorry for how terrible I am!"

Bai Ye, however, wore an incredulous expression. To be honest, he initially thought Ansel was the most capable and powerful member of the reserve action team—even though he did look rather weak.

However, after actually getting to know him, Bai Ye discovered that this guy was really bad.

This is unscientific!

He's clearly a man from that department, yet he's actually a proper doctor? He only passed the most basic physical training?

No ability to hide?

How dare they call themselves Rhodes Island's medical department?

However, seeing that the weak pink-haired girl was almost about to die, Bai Ye had no choice but to change his deeply ingrained notion—there are differences between medical operators.

Ansel, standing to the side, looked at Bai Ye as if he were a monster.

Does this guy have some misunderstanding about our medical department?

Just because our predecessors were good at fighting doesn't mean we can too!

“Let’s focus on training, Ansel!” Bai Ye disagreed. “Medics are the first to be hit on the battlefield.”

That's right, because the damage dealers are deployed first and then the healers, the healers are always the first to be attacked (not really).

"Only by ensuring your own survival can you find an opportunity to heal your teammates." Bai Ye began to instill strange ideas in Ansel.

'It does seem... to make a lot of sense.' Mr. Ansel was successfully misled.

……

"Alright, our morning exercise is over. Let's move on."

Leading the operators back to the camp, Bai Ye began inspecting the aircraft, preparing for takeoff.

Melantha and the others then understood why Bai Ye had made them bring enough changes of clothes—after their morning exercise, they needed to dry off their sweat in the tent and then change into clean, dry undergarments.

Sweating in the snow means losing heat as water evaporates, which is quite dangerous.

"So having a large cargo hold on an aircraft can be a bad thing!" Stewart couldn't help but complain—more clothes to change meant more training sessions could be conducted.

-------------------------------------

"What's in the sky?!"

"An airplane? The model is so old..."

"Are you stupid? Applying Earth-based models to a game?"

"It was probably designed based on the Osprey transport aircraft template; it's a very classic design."

When Bai Ye piloted his aircraft to the skies above the Reunion camp, the first to spot him were the players building infrastructure on the ground.

"Why are there so many more people...?"

Bai Ye slowly landed the aircraft on the snow, and a large group of players chased after it.

Taking advantage of the moment when the machine was shut down and the engine was turned off, Bai Ye glanced at the forum and found that, thanks to his own call as an NPC, more and more players were heading to the frozen tundra to "dig potatoes".

Moreover, this place seems to have been identified as the main storyline by the system—unlike the previous life's confrontation with the Reunion Movement, this time, the system seems to have made assisting the Reunion Movement the main storyline.

Because there is no teleportation function, although Arknights Online appears to be on a single server, there are still considerable gaps between spawn points.

The area near Chernobog-Lungmen in the Ursus Empire is where the main storylines of the first and second expansions took place. Players from other starting locations naturally wouldn't travel such a long distance—newbies are too weak in the early game, and if they encounter any danger or unexpected situation along the way, they'd be doomed.

Therefore, Arknights Online adopts a main storyline location system where players first go through the story, and then generate memory instances around the world according to the development of events, so that all players can experience the most realistic storyline process possible.

After completing the "Story Mode" dungeon once, memory dungeons that can be played multiple times will be available in various locations around the world, followed by higher difficulty levels and challenge stages.

"Am I also weaving history now?"

Bai Ye suddenly had a sudden realization.

As an NPC in the eyes of players, he is changing history, and perhaps he has an even greater influence than he imagines.

He's already rewriting the storyline of the player's dungeon!

"Perhaps I can add some personal touches to the dungeon?"

While pondering, Bai Ye jumped off the aircraft.

Immediately, the surrounding players erupted in excitement.

This startled the Rhodes Island operators who hadn't even stepped out of the hatch yet!

"My God, what's going on?"

Seeing how easily Bai Ye communicated with the players and calmed them down, Stewart was quite impressed with this shrewd department head—even though his training methods were truly ruthless.

……

In fact, the White Night was being overwhelmed by the rapid growth of the experience pool and the constant notifications of players submitting quests.

In addition, there are sounds of LMD (Lungmen Dollars) being credited to players' accounts when they buy goods, and notification sounds for learning skills.

He had no idea that he had given out missions to so many players—some of the Reunion Movement's mission experience was even credited to him!

"Well done, game system."

Bai Ye was naturally overjoyed, like a farmer who had finally reaped a bountiful harvest—the chives he had nurtured for so long were finally ready to be harvested.

Chapter 119 An Unthinkable Path

Today is Chestnut's 18th birthday, so I'm adding an extra update. Happy birthday to him! Turning 18 means the road ahead will stretch out beneath your feet; may the moon accompany you on your journey.

-------------------------------------

"white night!"

The leader of the Reunion Movement walked over with Frostnova.

"Sister Ta Zi, you didn't have to come out directly." Bai Ye said with a wry smile as she packed up her inventory.

As more and more players gathered, he had no choice but to close the shop and skill transfer panel, changing the status to "temporarily sold out," in order to escape from the crowd of players.

It's too ridiculous.

Bai Ye had never felt so many people surrounding him before. The chatter was so loud that he couldn't hear anything clearly, and he felt like his head was about to explode.

If he had recklessly activated [Mind Acceleration] just now, he might have burned through his own mental circuits.

“I knew you were back when those weirdos started to get excited,” Talulah said with a smile.

Beside her, Frostnova's expression seemed to soften considerably.

"How's it going?"

Bai Ye took off his hat and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Very smoothly, with these people's help, our progress has become incredibly fast." Talulah was in a good mood, then she pointed to the flying vehicle behind Bai Ye, "Is this your new toy?"

“Heh, it’s really an expensive toy borrowed from Rhodes Island Pharmaceuticals—” Bai Ye said, pointing to the engine of the “Bad Guy” and jokingly adding, “If this thing gets damaged, I’ll have to sell myself to Rhodes Island to pay off my debts.”

Talulah patted Baiye's shoulder hard: "Don't worry, Baiye, we won't let you end up like that."

Bai Ye felt a warmth in her heart.

Then he heard Frostnova coldly say, "We'll either bail you out, or have Big Daddy go in and get you out, and then you'll just have to stay in Reunion."

Give me back my touch!

Bai Ye rolled his eyes.

“Our Reunion Movement needs people like you.” Talulah sighed. “With your advice, I always feel that the road ahead will be smooth, and no matter what difficulties we encounter, you always have ideas and plans.”

"I'm just an ordinary person, I have nothing..."

Just as Bai Ye was about to deny it outright, Talulah shook her head and interrupted him: "You're too modest, my friend."

"Without you, our Team Five would have fallen apart long ago, with only the conspirators grinning maliciously."

"We already owe you so much, so please let us know if you need anything, and don't hesitate to ask."

Bai Ye nodded, then knocked on the hatch, signaling the Rhodes Island operators to come out: "It's time to introduce you to our new friends."

Then, one by one, Rhodes Island operators wearing special black uniforms made by Namba Heavy Industries walked out of the aircraft's hatch, with Aya leading the way.

"The Rhodes Island doctor is already in place and will provide medical assistance. This team consists of company interns who will be responsible for protecting the doctor's safety."

Bai Ye then explained to Talulah the reason for the emergence of "Namba Heavy Industries"—as a disguise measure to prevent Rhodes Island from being exposed to the Ursus Empire's eyes and ears.

"Hello, I am Talulah, the leader of the Reunion Movement. Thank you very much for providing medical assistance." Talulah stepped forward and extended her hand to Aya.

Aya looked at the young girl in front of her with slight surprise. Yes, as a leader and person in charge, Talulah was indeed too young.

Shaking hands with Talulah, Aya smiled and said, "Our company has always been committed to helping the infected people on this land, and this is also my job."

Rhodes Island operators have appeared in Reunion and are helping the infected here.

This is a completely new path that was never imagined before; the timeline has long since veered off course to who knows where.

Miss Froststar quietly walked to Bai Ye's side and whispered in his ear, "Are the employees of your company infected?"

"Half and half..." Bai Ye replied softly, "It includes both ordinary people and infected people."

"Ordinary people and infected people can fight side by side... To be honest, I'm surprised." Miss Frostnova blinked.

Bai Ye sighed: "To be honest, Miss Froststar, you could have acted even more surprised."

"Is that so?" Frostnova shook her head. "For me, this level is already quite exaggerated."

As she spoke, she took a piece of candy from her bosom.

"Are you going to eat this time?"

"Tsk, give it to me."

Bai Ye recalled the ridiculously spicy candy, her expression changed slightly, but she still reached out her hand: "It's not that I like to eat it, it's just that it's too cold here, maybe it can warm me up."

As he spoke, Bai Ye accepted the candy.

……

After exchanging pleasantries, Bai Ye led the Rhodes Island operators to Talulah's camp.

The aircraft was covered in canvas, and Bai Ye had also set up a warning and magical barrier around it.

“Rhodes Island headquarters is also severely understaffed; sending even one operator is the limit for us,” Baiye explained on the way.

After thinking for a moment, he added, "According to the contract, our doctors will help train Reunion's own physicians during the course of their work, but you must ensure the personal safety of our agents."

To be honest, there were times in the past when Rhodes Island operators were attacked and killed by patients outside. Bai Ye must prevent such things from happening, otherwise the contract that was hard-won will be cracked.

"Don't worry, we will arrange a team of guerrilla soldiers to protect the doctor."

Talulah's expression was also very serious.

This doctor could even be considered, in a sense, an envoy sent by Rhodes Island.

She must pay attention.

“By the way, Miss Aya.” Bai Ye turned to look at Aya, who looked up from in front of the box containing medical equipment.
