Reincarnation NPC, but Arknights

“I’m pretty sure it’s true, she really has amnesia.” Amiya nodded. “Baiye, my innate magic tells me that the Doctor is like a blank sheet of paper. Although she still has her knowledge and learning, and even her command talent is not lost, she has lost all her other memories.”

"She has even forgotten me... She has become a person without a past."

Amiya's ears drooped, and she looked depressed.

Although she was happy that the Doctor was able to return, she wondered... could the Doctor, after losing her memory, still be considered the same person she used to be?

"..."

Bai Ye shook his head as he watched the doctor bargaining with Instructor Doberman.

Then he reached out and gently touched Amiya's little head.

The little rabbit instinctively closed its eyes and rubbed against Bai Ye's palm before realizing something was wrong.

“White Night…” Amiya looked up at the mysterious young manager.

Bai Ye usually seemed to be a loner, and she always thought he was a difficult person to approach and understand. She never expected that Bai Ye would actually comfort people.

"Ahem..." Bai Ye awkwardly lowered his hand and changed the subject, "Speaking of which, I haven't thanked you yet. Last time in Chernobog, you helped us pull that black snake out."

“Ah, Logos was there that time too. Without his help, I couldn’t have done it with my current strength alone.” Amiya said, raising her hands and placing them in front of Bai Ye.

She has 10 rings on her fingers.

Clearly, wearing the ring wasn't just for looks. In Dr. Kal'tsit's words, the ring sealed away the power and memories of the Sarkaz Demon Lord.

Unsealing the ring signifies that Amiya must accept the Demon King's power and the Demon King's excessively long-held memories.

The girl's body was too frail; no one knew whether she could bear the Demon King's power.

In the past, Dr. Kal'tsit kept this secret, but as Bai Ye said, he eventually found out. Moreover, it was Dr. Kal'tsit herself who told him. This is one of Rhodes Island's ultimate secrets.

"If possible, I hope you will never need to use this power..."

Bai Ye looked at Amiya and said seriously.

Then, he glanced at the clueless doctor, smiled, and shook his head: "That's fine too. Let him remain innocent and ignorant. On this land, not being bound by a painful past is a kind of happiness..."

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

After finishing his conversation with Amiya the bunny, Bai Ye headed towards the bridge.

He knew that Dr. Kal'tsit was there.

Just as he turned his head, he saw the old woman standing in front of the large window of the bridge tower, looking down.

This location offers a perfect view overlooking the entire Rhodes Island deck.

Clearly, she was also keeping an eye on the doctor.

As expected, a section of the corridor on the Rhodes Island ship was blocked off by engineers who were carrying out repairs.

Bai Ye bypassed the damp corridor and entered the bridge.

"Dr. Kal'tsit, I heard you were looking for me." Bai Ye walked to the window.

“Yes, the core city of Chernobog is not within signal coverage, so I entrusted Miss Typing to deliver my message.” Dr. Kal'tsit nodded.

She then gestured for Bai Ye to sit down.

"Right here?" Bai Ye asked curiously. This was the first time they had discussed matters in the central hub of the bridge.

“Yes, this is fine.” Kal’tsit nodded. “Spring has arrived, and we have such nice weather.”

Unlike other ordinary cabins that use artificial lights to simulate sunlight, the bridge area is able to collect natural light, and at this moment, the sunlight is just right.

“Indeed, older people should also get some sunshine to supplement their calcium intake,” Bai Ye said subconsciously.

Then he felt a sharp gaze from beside him.

Without even a second thought, it's Dr. Kal'tsit.

“I don’t think I’m at the age where I need to sit on the balcony and bask in the sun,” Dr. Kal’tsit said expressionlessly.

Bai Ye shrugged.

“I warned you before, W is a dangerous person. Be careful when you associate with her. You should know what a Sarkaz mercenary means to you,” Dr. Kal'tsit continued.

Clearly, she believed that Bai Ye had been corrupted by W.

“I will assess the current situation.” Bai Ye nodded.

The Sarkaz mercenaries are indeed a tiny bit less principled than ordinary people... and now, this power has been placed in his hands.

Perhaps he should use it carefully.

"White Night, I want to ask you for a favor." After a moment of silence, Kal'tsit began to get down to business.

This is also why she needs to return to Rhodes Island during the day.

"Please speak." Bai Ye knew that he was, after all, a high-ranking executive at Rhodes Island and owed the old woman a lot of favors. He should indeed fulfill his responsibilities and obligations as the field operations supervisor.

"Rhodes Island's business development specialist in Columbia has reported to headquarters that the drug sales in our pilot program there are good, and they would like to expand the scale if possible," Kal'tsit said, transmitting the information to White Night's terminal.

As Bai Ye opened the app, he frowned: "The market for infected drugs is no simple place; it's rife with intrigue and treacherous activities..."

Bai Ye recalled that Rhodes Island's policy was to avoid entering the market for drugs for infected individuals as much as possible.

"The medicine being tested this time is a preventative medicine, specifically prepared for pioneers in the wilderness and miners in dangerous areas. It is not an Oripathy suppressant," Dr. Kal'tsit explained.

Chapter Thirty-Nine: A New Journey

"Looks like I need to go on a business trip." Bai Ye finished browsing the information on the terminal.

The preventative medicine is selling very well in Colombia, and if they want to expand sales, they will need support from Rhode Island.

Beyond simply providing drug supplies, Rhodes Island also needs to ensure the safety of its staff. After all, this is Columbia, a place rife with cunning and underhanded tactics in the competitive business world. As a branch of a foreign company, Rhodes Island is clearly no match for the local power.

"Are you going in person?" Dr. Kal'tsit's original intention was for Bai Ye to arrange for personnel from the field department to follow up on this matter and assist the business specialists in opening up the market.

This surprised her.

“This has always been my habit.” Bai Ye nodded, then put away the terminal. “Since Rhodes Island is preparing to open up the Columbia market, let’s simply join forces with the local capitalists to expand and strengthen our business.”

"The same method as before?" Dr. Kal'tsit looked up.

Bai Ye nodded and said, "Yes, just like before, Rhodes Island will go into the shadows, while we will register a new company to act as the target in the open."

"However, we also need a share, and the company also needs various forms of support from Rhodes Island."

To be precise, Rhodes Island has changed from direct sales to using agents to handle sales.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Rhodes Island will go into the shadows, while White Night's company will draw fire in the open.

Unlike Rhodes Island, which clearly had some reservations, White Night was no pushover. He was ruthless and unscrupulous, and he could also recruit players.

Those were a group of ruthless people.

"Okay." Kal'tsit nodded after a long pause for thought.

Only magic can counter magic. Clearly, White Night's assistance is essential to gaining a foothold in Columbia.

"Do you need me to introduce you to some people?" Dr. Kal'tsit was a well-known scholar in Colombia in the past, with her own intelligence network and connections.

"No rush," Bai Ye shook his head.

In fact, he already had someone in mind.

The emperor introduced him to a friend in Colombia.

Bai Ye prepared to visit him later.

"Be careful," Dr. Kal'tsit suddenly reminded him before leaving.

"Thank you." Bai Ye smiled. Although he was not one to smile easily, after getting to know him, he found that Kal'tsit was actually a nice person.

It would be better if she could smile. After all, older women often give the impression of being sophisticated machines rather than living, breathing people.

……

After leaving the bridge, Bai Ye went to his room.

Now that he was preparing to go to Colombia, he needed to pack his luggage.

Winter has passed and the temperature is starting to rise. Bai Ye is preparing to change some clothes in her inventory.

Just as Bai Ye reached the door, she found Skadi standing in front of his dormitory waiting for her.

"Huh?!" Bai Ye was somewhat surprised.

“I saw your aircraft on the deck just now, so I knew you were back,” Skadi explained.

"I was originally going to give you a surprise." Bai Ye said, putting the terminal back in his pocket, then taking out his work card to open the door.

"How is Ghost Shark doing?" Bai Ye led Titi into his dormitory.

Thanks to the automatic robot vacuum cleaner, the house was still kept very clean even though no one has lived there for a long time.

“She’s awake and is currently undergoing rehabilitation.” Skadi’s expression darkened as she spoke of her former companion. “She doesn’t recognize me anymore… Her memories won’t return on land.”

"This is the only way for now... It's a miracle that Ghost Shark is still alive." If a normal person were injected with such high-purity liquid Originium, they would probably have turned into a crystal stone long ago.

However, thanks to its exceptional physique, Specter was still able to live a lively life, and even the rate of its cells binding with Originium was brought under control through Rhodes Island's treatment.

"Rhodes Island will provide her with treatment, so there's no point in me staying by her side now."

Skadi's subconscious tells her that even if she stays by her comrades' side, she cannot trigger the shark's past memories.

Currently, the personality of the deep-sea hunter known as "Shark" is dormant, while the one awakening is Sister Ghost Shark.

"What a pitiful child," Bai Ye sighed.

He then began packing his luggage.

"Where are you going this time?" Skadi asked, sitting on the sofa.

"Columbia, do you want to come along?" Bai Ye replied casually.

Skadi tilted her head and asked, "Columbia...where is that?"

Clearly, even after wandering this land for so long, she still doesn't care about what happens on the ground.

“It’s a land-based country.” Bai Ye opened the terminal and tossed it to Skadi. “It’s near Letania and Ursus.”

“Countries on land are no different,” Skadi muttered, clearly unconcerned about such things.

“There are quite a few scientific research institutes over there… I heard that some laboratories have created experimental subjects similar to the Ghost Shark—artificial infected individuals,” Bai Ye said slowly.

"I want to go." Sure enough, Skadi immediately became interested. "Can you find a way to treat sharks over there?"

"It's difficult. I'm afraid we can only find some clues and get some inspiration." Bai Ye shook his head, not wanting to deceive the honest orca.

“It’s okay, we can’t give up any opportunity.” Skadi had already made her decision.

Bai Ye smiled and said, "Then let's go together."

He also believed that it would be better to take Skadi away from Rhodes Island for a while.

Because of the ghost shark on the island, the child is now restless and somewhat possessed.

Perhaps she needs to relax a bit.

Leaving the ship and going to an unfamiliar country to divert attention is a good option.

"Then it's settled."

Bai Ye arranged the next part of the itinerary.

He and Skadi set off alone, while the other field agents would depart with other business professionals after the mission was accomplished.

"Aren't you going with them?" Skadi asked curiously.

In the past, these deep-sea hunters always operated together.

"It's too dangerous for you to follow us."

Indeed, most people on land are weak. Only a few are exceptions.

Skadi stated that there was no one who could fight.

“...It seems this journey will require a bit of effort,” Skadi then murmured.

Her sword should finally have a use.

Bai Ye smiled and reassured her, "Don't be nervous, just think of it as a business trip."
