……

Twisting his neck, Bai Ye casually picked up the metal piece that had fallen from Jeston's body and been broken by him, inserted it into the restraint device, and destroyed the instrument that was suppressing Anthony and the others.

Turning around, he saw that Skadi had already taken care of all the other assassins.

Anthony and the others stared in disbelief at Bai Ye and Skadi.

They really didn't expect that these two would be so good at fighting and so violent.

You can't tell from the outside at all.

"He offended me, so I vented my anger and settled a personal score," Bai Ye explained with a smile, while kicking Jeston, whom he had beaten half to death. "What do you think we should do with him? Should we send him down to see the Gallic Emperor?"

"Could you hand him over to me?"

Just then, a somewhat cold female voice came from behind Bai Ye.

"Huh? Miss Saria?!" Bai Ye turned around in surprise, looking at Saria standing behind him.

Saria, former head of the Defense Department at Rhine Labs, left Rhine Labs for various reasons. She has collaborations with Rhodes Island in multiple fields, including scientific research, and is currently in discussions with Rhodes Island regarding plans for deeper cooperation.

To be precise, she is a researcher.

Of course, they are very capable researchers.

According to the information Bai Ye found at Rhodes Island, the reason why Saria approached Rhodes Island was because both Himeru and Ifrit were currently working at the company.

Unlike Bai Ye, Saria did not join Rhodes Island directly, but instead acted as a collaborator.

"I should have known... You were also an accomplice that Hemer found? I didn't expect that even though she said her relationship with you had soured, she would still ask you for help..."

Bai Ye shrugged and relaxed.

At the same time, Bai Ye was also thinking to himself:

Honestly, if they already have Saria, why would they need to ask him for help...?

Clearly, Bai Ye believed that this trash Jeston was no match for Saria; she alone was enough to handle everything here.

"Hemer... no, I wasn't sent by her. Wait, do you know me?" Saria was somewhat surprised. She carefully examined Bai Ye, but found him to be a complete stranger.

“I joined the field operations department a year ago, but I’ve been running around outside and haven’t spent much time on this ship,” Bai Ye explained with a smile, then kicked Jeston in front of Saria: “He’s yours now.”

Saria bent down to examine Jeston, then couldn't help rolling her eyes: "You almost killed him."

Chapter 62 Saria 3/35

(Water Moon Rogue is so much fun! I hesitated for a long time between adding an extra chapter and playing the game, and finally I chose to roll the dice. As you all know, the ending was a huge failure... So here's this chapter.)

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

"My hands were itching, and I couldn't resist."

"This isn't the place to talk. Let's go outside first."

As Bai Ye spoke, he looked up at the ceiling. He could hear footsteps outside, but it seemed that Mansfield Prison itself simply didn't have the manpower to deal with their affairs.

The players who followed White Night into the prison have now turned the entire prison into chaos. Because Anthony and his group cut off the power to the entire prison from the main control room, many facilities and devices are no longer functioning properly.

More and more players flooded into Mansfield Prison, and they clearly attracted the guards' attention with ease.

Compared to the crisis of the entire prison being on the verge of collapse and all the prisoners potentially fleeing in droves, the sudden disappearance of a few prisoners and guards is utterly insignificant.

Prison guard captain Barton had no time to consider this trivial matter.

"I hope they have a smooth journey."

Bai Ye ignored the imprisoned players and followed Anthony and the others out of Mansfield Prison through the tunnel they had dug.

"This is a huge project."

Looking at the tunnel leading from the underground structure to the outside, Bai Ye couldn't help but marvel at the creativity and resourcefulness of these prisoners.

"It's all thanks to the big guy. We're all skinny and thin, how can we compare to him?" Kafka said with a smile.

This answer was similar to what Bai Ye had thought.

The strong and robust Anthony was naturally the main force in digging the tunnel.

Incidentally, according to Anthony and his accomplices' original escape plan, they intended to disguise themselves as workers and leave the prison.

However, when Bai Ye saw the strange clothes made up of two worker uniforms pieced together, he immediately stopped in his tracks.

With such obvious physical characteristics and bizarre disguise, even if the Colombian police were an idiot, they would probably be able to tell that something was wrong!

Finally, Bai Ye activated his invisibility and took everyone out with him.

"follow me."

Seria led everyone into the car, and after many twists and turns, they arrived at a coffee shop.

"This is my safe house."

As she spoke, Saria carried the unconscious Jeston out of the car and walked into the cafe.

"To be honest, it's a little scary," Kafka said, sticking out his tongue.

Inside the safe house, Saria had already prepared a set of well-fitting clothes for Anthony.

The other girls also changed into new clothes.

Then Anthony stuffed the prison uniform into the fireplace in the café.

"Saria would actually prepare something like this?!" Bai Ye looked at him as if he had just seen Chūmaru. It was unbelievable that Saria, who was known as the "diamond straight girl," would be so thoughtful.

"Ahem, it was Muirses who asked me to prepare this." Saria's expression was somewhat unnatural.

She suspected that Bai Ye had learned about her dark past from other sources.

Actually, Saria wouldn't care too much about such things, but the awkwardness caused by the information asymmetry between the two parties made her very uncomfortable.

Bai Ye sat down in a chair and found a bottle of water.

Anthony walked towards him and Seria.

“We need to talk,” he said, sitting down in a chair as well.

However, the chair did look rather small to him.

Bai Ye turned to look to the side. Skadi was sitting not far away, while Kafka sat beside her, making jokes. It seemed that this lively girl was very interested in what was in the box behind Skadi.

Coming to his senses, Bai Ye nodded: "Indeed, we need to talk."

"You've seen this show too?" Anthony raised an eyebrow, clearly realizing that Bai Ye was making a joke.

“Of course, the first season was alright, but it got worse and worse later on…” Bai Ye chatted with Anthony for a few minutes.

Then, Bai Ye spoke up: "Let me tell you about myself first. I am an assistant that Miss Hermer found as Mr. Anthony's last resort for escape."

"You said you're the head of the field operations department?"

"Hmm, I'm the head of the field operations department at Rhodes Island Pharmaceuticals, and I've only been here a year. Hmm, if nothing unexpected happens, I should be Rhodes Island's outstanding employee in 1096." Bai Ye grinned.

Of course, this is his own assessment; whether the older woman will accept it is another matter.

“I see.” Saria tapped the table with her fingers, and after a long while, she slowly said, “I wasn’t sent by Himeru. In fact, our relationship… isn’t very good.”

"She won't ask me for help."

As she spoke, the white-haired Vaiva woman looked at Anthony and said, "I was sent by Muirsay, and my target is also Anthony. Anthony, you may have important clues about us."

“Mülseth? Mümü?” Bai Ye was somewhat surprised. He frowned. “You’re working for Rhine Lab?”

Because of various human experiments, and the living example of Ifrit, Bai Ye has no good feelings towards Rhine Lab.

Behind the laboratory that operated on players in the previous life was the shadow of Rhine Labs. This company possesses terrifying ambition and strength.

“No, she commissioned me in her personal capacity. Muirsey isn’t a bad person. I’ve been investigating Rhine Lab with her assistance.” Saria explained, seemingly sensing Bai Ye’s doubts.

Bai Ye nodded.

"You know Muirsay?"

"I heard from Ifrit that this person is her friend, so I took some time to look up his information. Hehe, he's the head of the Ecology Department at Rhine Life Sciences."

Saria sighed: "She... isn't a bad person. Although she's rather, well, lively and quite cunning, she's still somewhat trustworthy."

"By the way, what are your plans for the future?"

Bai Ye opened his terminal and glanced at it: "Hemer asked me to bring Anthony to meet up with her. I guess we'll head straight back to Rhodes Island afterward. What about you?"

“I don’t intend to hand Anthony over to Muirsay; I’ll handle things on my own. Anthony, I’ll come to you later. I need your help; I need to find out some things,” Seria said, looking at Anthony.

In just a few words, the group decided on Anthony's next destination.

There was no problem with the big guy. As an escaped prisoner, he had nowhere else to go and no better options.

Bai Ye guessed that this guy would most likely stay on Rhodes Island.

"I hope Dr. Kal'tsit can accept this fact..."

Bai Ye knew that Dr. Kal'tsit would probably approve Anthony's application, but she probably wouldn't be too happy.

After all, this guy is actually a problem. He's involved in a dispute between two companies, and behind that, there's the huge shadow of Rhine Life.

"That's why I hate Columbia."

Bai Ye would rather stay in Iberia and the deep sea than deal with the insects of Colombia.

Chapter 63 Chain Missions 4/35

"Mr. Baiye, um... Ifrit, how is she?"

Before leaving, Saria suddenly grabbed Baiye.

Bai Ye looked at the powerful Vayvan and nodded: "Her condition is relatively stable at the moment, and she is being well taken care of on Rhodes Island."

As he spoke, Bai Ye opened the terminal and sent Ifrit's medical report and some photos to Saria.

"She lives with Himer and is my neighbor. I see her every time I go back to Rhodes Island."

Saria didn't speak, but looked at Ifrit's beaming face in the photo, and her originally serious expression seemed to soften slightly.

Bai Ye leaned against the wall, took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket, took a bite, and then squinted his eyes and said, "I always feel that there might be some misunderstanding between you and Himer. Himer is always reluctant to mention your name, but Ifrit is very close to you and always tells me that she wants to see you."

“Every time, Himer gets angry. So Ifrit can only tell me these things in secret.”

Saria nodded, gazing at Ifrit's photograph. She remained silent for a long time, then sighed, "There are some things I haven't told Himeru. She shouldn't know those dark things. I will find out these things myself. Rhine Lab has gone astray, and as one of the founders, I have a responsibility to correct it."

Seria and her college classmate Christen Wright co-founded Rhine Lab.

"If I had known, I really should have paid more attention to the plot. I missed all the research and analysis done by so many scholars..."

Bai Ye muttered to himself.

These messy relationships and background events were precisely the information he was unaware of.

"Come visit Ifrit next time, she misses you." Bai Ye said, putting away his terminal.

"Depending on the situation, I should come to Rhodes Island later."

Bai Ye smiled and said, "If you want, I can help you meet, without Himer's knowledge."

"Hermer might want to punch you if he hears that," Saria joked, seemingly cheering herself up.

"By the way, Miss Saria, let's work together."

Bai Ye suddenly remembered that the person in front of him, as one of the founders of Rhine Lab, should have a way to solve Rhodes Island's problem of expanding its market in Columbia.

Perfect timing! He can ask Saria for help so he can report back to Dr. Kal'tsit.

After mentioning his problem to Saria, Bai Ye continued, "It's not just Rhodes Island; my own businesses may also be entering Columbia, and I'll need your help along the way."

"In exchange, I'll help with the investigation of Rhine Lab... I'm good at intelligence and combat."

After listening, Saria thought for a moment and then nodded: "Okay, let's keep in touch."

Saria also needs help. It's unrealistic for her to investigate this behemoth all by herself, having left Rhine Lab.

Bai Ye is very skilled and a powerful ally.

The two quickly reached an agreement.
