Reincarnation NPC, but Arknights

W, Amiya, Patriot, Kingslayer...

The Reunion Movement cadres also came over and looked at Talulah, their leader, who was being helped up.

"It's been a long time, sister," Chen Huijie said softly. "I've come to save you."

Talulah looked at Chen Huijie, who was supporting herself with her arms, and was momentarily dazed.

"Hey, sis, what's up? Don't you recognize me?"

Talulah smiled.

"I thought I misheard... You really came, my sister."

"Heh, Huijie, you've grown up and become handsome. Hmm, you look great with a sword. Did this Crimson Sky sword fulfill some chivalrous dream of yours?"

"'Delicious food, fine wine, beautiful scenery, beautiful people, kind words, and wonderful stories'—which of those strange and wonderful novels' dreams did you get?"

As soon as they met, Talulah started digging up Chen Huijie's shortcomings.

They truly are best friends.

"Hey, stop talking!" Chen Huijie blushed and turned her face away.

In fact, she really is a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur).

"Don't let go, Huijie!" Talulah swayed as she leaned against Chen Huijie. "Oh, that's so nice."

Then she looked at Alina.

"Hmph." Alina turned her head away.

"Forehead……"

"Do you know you were wrong? You've caused another huge scene." Alina began her lecture. "You haven't remembered anything I said before. I told you, didn't I? The curse of the black snake."

"I was just worried when I saw you collapse," Talulah said, scratching her head a little embarrassedly.

"How did you do it?"

Bai Ye chuckled from the side, "Hypnotizing, huh?"

“Talulah, although we stopped you from turning to the dark side before, the root cause has not been completely eliminated. You still have an obsession with Alina’s serious injury.”

"So, with just a gentle push, you will return to the trajectory that Black Serpent originally planned."

Because Alina didn't tell Talulah not to hold a grudge during the reenactment, she didn't even need to experience another fire to be completely trapped in the vicious curse woven from hatred.

"That was so reckless! They didn't even tell me. Alina, I was really worried something might have happened to you." Talulah was still a little scared.

"I'll be fine. After all, Mr. Baiye gave me the ring," Little Deer said, pointing to her antlers.

The ring above contains a protective spell.

"Uh..." Talulah then remembered this.

"Then, what about the blood?" she pressed.

Bai Ye pointed at Alina's clothes: "Haha, it's just ketchup and watermelon juice."

"Humans are visual creatures, so they are greatly deceived by their own eyes."

Just like before, Huang once used a chainsaw to cut open a watermelon, the serrated edges covered in the watermelon's red juice. Her clothes were also stained red.

Then, Bai Ye, who was completely unaware of what was going on, suddenly walked into the room. At first glance, he thought that the big cat had suddenly killed someone.

The terrifying Chainsaw Man!

"So it was your idea!" Talulah belatedly pointed at White Night.

"Heh, silly Sister Ta Zi." Bai Ye nodded.

"You planned this all along! I should have known better!" Talulah smiled helplessly.

Then, she bowed solemnly to Bai Ye and said, "Thank you, Bai Ye."

"Hmph, no need to thank me. I'm only doing this for myself. If the Black Serpent takes over your body and seizes the core city, all my previous efforts and investments will have been wasted!"

As Bai Ye spoke, he sheathed Arc Light back into his sword sheath.

This thing was scalding hot from Talulah's heat and invisible flames, and it's only now cooling down.

'Has he always been like this? Is he still this stubborn here too?' — Chen Huijie

"You're only just realizing this? It's always been like this." — Talulah

The two sisters exchanged glances and then laughed together.

“Mr. Baiye, you’re really something. Kosichek died because of your scheme,” Alina whispered from the side.

Bai Ye shook his head: "No."

"There are far too many who have truly defeated that black serpent. It lost to past family ties, to present bonds, and to me, who has a vision of the future..."

The Black Serpent despised everyone, believing that humans should be ruled and that they were born foolish. However, he was unaware of the many souls on this land yearning for light. He professed to love Ursus and its people, but in truth, he understood nothing of love.

Chen Huijie, Alina, Frostnova, Patriot... So many people formed bonds with Talulah, and these things dragged her out of the curse.

……

“Well done.” Logos walked up to Bai Ye. “I underestimated you before.”

"You did a great job with this hunt."

Logos, the male succubus, did not hold back his praise.

"I also want to thank you for your spells." Bai Ye expressed his gratitude to the spell master who played a key role in the battle.

"You're welcome. By the way, the spell you cast at the end was very interesting." Logos waved his hand, put away the bone pen, and then seemed to remember something, "That spell involved a terrifying area."

“Originium Arts are spells that use Originium energy to alter the structure of objects and influence the dimensions of reality… but what you have is no longer within the scope of Originium Arts.”

"Your development of physical combat skills clearly surpasses your development of magic."

"Don't underestimate your talent. A warrior can rely on more than just the longsword in his hand."

Logos offered his advice and then left.

"Thank you. I understand..."

Bai Ye looked at his hands.

The final spell that bound the black snake, lasting less than a minute, almost exhausted his power.

"What is that?"

Bai Ye still doesn't understand. But if she continues on this path, she should be able to find the answer.

Chapter Fourteen: The Old Woman's Mental State

(YJ is too ruthless. They added the "carving knife" to the public recruitment, which eliminated the advantage of consistently getting five-star characters with the burst tag.)

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

The mysterious Logos disappeared after giving Bai Ye his warning. It's said he has some interest in Frostnova, also known as Yelena, and her Originium Arts.

Meanwhile, there are also many Sarkaz in the core city of Chernobog, such as the familiar Bob and Adam who want to grow hops and raise Originium bugs, as well as Mudrock, the Sarkaz strongman who likes to talk to the soil.

Logos, being of the same ethnicity, seems quite interested in their current living conditions.

Moreover, these people also came from Kazdel, and Logos hoped to take this opportunity to learn about some of the internal workings of the Sarkaz.

And just like that, in the blink of an eye, the sorcerer vanished without a trace, leaving Bai Ye no time to react.

"Bai Ye, let's go together."

Talulah reached out her hand to White Night.

They are now in a wilderness area on the outskirts of Chernobog's core city, where even the biggest disturbances cannot affect the mobile city itself.

Bai Ye nodded, just about to leave with the Talulah sisters, when he caught a glimpse of Dr. Kal'tsit out of the corner of his eye.

Seemingly noticing Bai Ye's gaze, Dr. Kal'tsit turned her head and waved at him.

"You two sisters have been apart for so long, you must have a lot to talk about. I won't disturb you any longer, I'll be going now."

Bai Ye made an excuse and then left Talulah and the others, heading towards Doctor Kal'tsit.

Dr. Kal'tsit recalled the Mon3tr she had summoned earlier. Before disappearing, the monster let out a soft growl at Bai Ye.

Then, Kal'tsit turned to look at Bai Ye: "A decent victory, but you can't let your guard down. Although the threat to Talulah has been eliminated, Koschei, that immortal black serpent, is not necessarily doomed. He may still be alive."

"Is this never going to end? Why doesn't he just die? This is so annoying!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Ye was stunned. The guy he, Talulah, Amiya, and Logos had clearly killed together, so how could Dr. Kal'tsit say he wasn't dead?

"I should definitely be the one to deliver the final blow. If I gain experience, it means he's truly finished..."

By checking whether the kill was successful using experience points, Bai Ye knew what he had missed.

He clenched his fist. His decision just now had sown the seeds of his downfall. It seemed that all his efforts had been for nothing.

"Calm down, White Night," Dr. Kal'tsit said softly.

To be honest, this was the first time Dr. Kal'tsit had seen Bai Ye break down. Before, no matter what happened, he was always calm and composed.

"You're too sensitive about immortality."

Bai Ye gradually calmed himself down amidst Dr. Kal'tsit's cold rebuke. Only he knew why he was so sensitive.

Because people die when they are killed; that's common sense. True immortality, however, has only been seen in players by Bai Ye.

Save and load has always been a special ability of players.

If other entities also possess a way to start over...

"Baiye, do you know the legend of the Undead Koschche?" Suddenly, Dr. Kal'tsit spoke up, interrupting Baiye's thoughts.

He shook his head.

Dr. Kal'tsit slowly explained, "He was known as the Shapeshifter. By removing souls, Koschl maintained his life and immortality. It is said that he took souls from their bodies, hid them in a needle, the needle in an egg, the egg in a duck, the duck in a rabbit, and then locked them in an iron or crystal box, burying it under a green oak tree on an island."

"It really is a nested doll, how afraid of death is he?" Bai Ye clicked his tongue in amazement.

Dr. Kal'tsit nodded: "Therefore, we cannot rule out the possibility that there are still Kosichean fragments or clones in other parts of the Ursus Empire."

After a pause, Dr. Kal'tsit suddenly relaxed and said, "Bai Ye, you don't need to take this to heart anymore."

"Ok?"

Bai Ye was somewhat puzzled by Kal'tsit's sudden change of topic.

Is this guy starting to tell riddles again?

“If you still trust me and my judgment, then there’s no need to be so alarmed.” Dr. Kal’tsit turned around. “I just wanted to remind you of the possibility of this matter.”

"In fact, no matter what, he can no longer cause any trouble," Dr. Kal'tsit said confidently. "Having lost his status as a duke, lost his powerful physique, and suffered this severe injury, he no longer has the ability to do evil."

"If he were still alive, he would only be hiding here and there, prolonging his ugly life."

"Don't forget, you also reported the evil deeds of the immortals to the Ursus Empire. Black Serpent is probably wanted by the authorities now. He won't dare to show his face."

“Hmm…” Bai Ye nodded, knowing that Dr. Kal'tsit was right.

Koschei was able to stir up trouble not only because of his magic, intrigue, and the insight of the immortals, but more importantly because of his status. He had previously secretly controlled Lungmen and was later a duke in the Ursus Empire.

These resources allowed him access to the army's top brass, and even to the Sabre Bodyguards.

Talulah's body and magic were also crucial to his plan, given how astonishing the Originium Arts of this body were.

Having sufficient strength is also key to the plan's success.

"He has lost, and lost completely. You can rest assured now," Dr. Kal'tsit concluded.

"Tsk..."

Bai Ye couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.

Did Dr. Kal'tsit come over just to scare me?

As expected of you, so vindictive. All you did was mock me before for calling me an old woman and mentioning that you secretly used a tablet and wore a maid outfit. Is it really necessary to go to such lengths to upset me?

"Oh, right, there's also Amiya's matter. I didn't expect it couldn't be kept a secret in the end." Dr. Kal'tsit glanced at the little rabbit chatting with Frostnova and sighed softly.

Bai Ye immediately became interested.

"What exactly is going on?"
