Reincarnation NPC, but Arknights

This time, Skadi panicked: "Can you hear me?"

"...Don't say it. What I said is not important."

"Really?!" Laurentina laughed even harder; the nun had simply been holding it in for too long.

“We’re going to sleep now, this is our dorm room,” Skadi suddenly said.

As she spoke, she patted the bed: "Bai Ye, it's time to sleep."

"Tsk..." Laurentina didn't know what to say. If she really argued with Skadi, she could get so frustrated she'd die of anger.

However, she cannot leave.

The nun pulled the chair closer to the bed and sat down again: "Skadi, I can't leave."

"Why?" Skadi asked, somewhat puzzled.

“Because…only by staying by your side can I stay sober,” Laurentina explained calmly.

She didn't say it with a smile, so it seems that it was indeed the truth.

Bai Ye asked with some doubt, "Doesn't this aura disgust you?"

“I couldn’t stand it before, but it’s much better now. There’s no stench of enemies, no nausea from the dead, just the feeling of home. It feels good,” the shark replied softly.

Bai Ye nodded knowingly: "I think I understand. It seems like this might work... As long as you adjust yourself like this, you can stay awake and won't attract the Terror Fish and the Sea Sparrow."

As he spoke, Bai Ye fixed the seal at this level. Although the one who placed the seal on the newborn Isamara was not himself, but rather the game system and the entity behind it (Bai Ye is currently unaware of Luna's existence and her plans).

However, Bai Ye is also able to control the seal to some extent.

"I didn't expect you to believe my explanation. I was originally planning to find some other evidence." Bai Ye breathed a sigh of relief that the fight was over.

Subduing a deep-sea hunter that has gone berserk is no easy task.

“I can tell you’re not lying, and... you don’t have the scent of those ‘dead’ from the Deep Sea Church.”

"Hmm, that feels much better... I can finally get a good night's sleep while I'm fully awake..." Laurentina said, letting out a long sigh of relief.

The feeling of madness was incredibly painful, as if something was churning inside her head and spinal cord. Moreover, the slow loss of reason, the feeling of slowly sliding into an abyss, easily instilled in her a sense of powerless despair.

Now, however, she is quite comfortable.

"So, if you want to stay conscious, you have to stay by my side the whole time?" Bai Ye realized that something was wrong.

“Yes.” Laurentina nodded, then seemed to remember something and added, “If you want to do *, that’s fine, just pretend I don’t exist.”

"Hoshiguma would do that!" Byakuya couldn't help but complain. "Can you be normal for once..."

"I don't mind, so why do you mind?" Laurentina muttered softly, her face turning red.

Bai Ye finally understood that the usually crazy Ghost Shark was actually the easiest to get along with, while Laurentina, who had now sobered up, was quite difficult to deal with.

Only a quiet, simple-minded person like Skadi could choke Laurentina.

"Fine, it's okay if you stay. After all, going crazy is really unpleasant." Bai Ye finally softened.

"You really are a good person! Skadi was right about you!" Laurentina's eyes lit up.

"Hmph, don't overthink it. I'm just worried that you'll go crazy again and try to kill me. That would be terrible," Bai Ye sneered.

Laurentina's expression turned cold, then she turned to Skadi and asked, "Is your Bai Ye always this stubborn?"

“I’ve tried it, it’s pretty soft.” Skadi seemed a little confused, then blurted out some sensational news.

This time it was Laurentina's turn to grab her forehead: "My God, I shouldn't have asked you. It makes me look like an idiot."

"..."

Bai Ye was truly amused by their banter. He shook his head, stood up, and walked over to Laurentina's side: "Come on, let's go to the medical department first."

"What's wrong?" Ghost Shark asked, puzzled.

"We hit you a little too hard earlier. Let's go check if we hurt you."

"It's nothing, this kind of injury is just a minor one for us deep-sea hunters." Laurentina didn't seem to care at all.

“Now that you’re all on land, do things the way you would on land.” Bai Ye said sternly. “If you’re injured, you need treatment. If you’re in pain, just yell it out. You’re all human, not weapons. Why don’t you take your bodies seriously?”

Laurentina was stunned when she heard this.

No one had ever said such things to them before; Bai Ye was the first.

After a long silence, she nodded, stood up, and obediently followed Bai Ye toward the medical department.

"Actually, it does hurt a little," the girl said pitifully, tugging at Bai Ye's sleeve.

"Yeah, it's good that you know it hurts, for letting you go crazy and rush my face like that." Bai Ye rolled her eyes.

However, his expression gradually calmed down.

'Now I understand why Skadi would fall for a land dweller... it's not just because of her strength.'

Laurentina said to herself silently.

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

Laurentina's return to consciousness was a miracle to the medical operators who knew her condition.

Even Dr. Kal'tsit was summoned.

Renowned doctors such as Kal'tsit, Himer, Warfarin, and Shining gathered together to conduct an expert consultation for Laurentina.

The diagnosis was quite encouraging. Laurentina has regained her senses and is in a very stable mental state.

"As expected, the problem lies with you, Bai Ye. Give me another vial of blood!"

Warfarin hasn't asked Bai Ye for blood in a long time.

Dr. Kal'tsit glanced at Bai Ye, clearly believing the problem lay with him as well.

However, there was another thing she wanted to say: "Bai Ye, your battle resulted in a training room being completely destroyed, and the repair costs will be deducted directly from your monthly salary."

Yes, wages will be deducted...

"Ah Zhe!" Bai Ye suddenly felt something was wrong.

Although he was not short of money, he felt very upset every time his salary was deducted.

Yes, this guy is now the only manager at Rhodes Island who frequently has his salary deducted, which is quite embarrassing.

However, perhaps that's just how young people are; after all, Bai Ye is considered Rhodes Island's youngest supervisor.

Of course, this isn't the only place where you'll need to spend money.

Bai Ye was also planning to get Laurentina a new chainsaw. He had already broken the previous one.

Rhodes Island does have some aesthetic sense; a nun with a chainsaw—quite a classic combination.

Bai Ye wasn't planning on replacing Laurentina's weapon, since she was quite comfortable using the chainsaw, which suited Bai Ye's preferences.

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

After the inspection, Laurentina followed Bai Ye back to the dormitory.

There was no other way; the two had already tested it, and if the distance was too great, Laurentina would go crazy again.

Therefore, they can only stay within a certain distance.

Upon entering, the two saw Skadi, who was puffing up with anger.

What was supposed to be a wonderful life for two was suddenly disrupted by the arrival of a third person. Who wouldn't be upset in that situation?

Skadi had no other choice, however, as she didn't know how many Deepsea Hunters were still alive. What if Laurentina was the only one left?

And so began their strange cohabitation.

Laurentina has to stay with Baiye, and Skadi certainly won't leave either, so now there are three people living in Baiye's room.

“I just need to sit in the chair,” Laurentina said softly, sitting on the edge of the bed.

Bai Ye turned off the lights, remained silent for a while, then turned them back on and sat up.

"Don't do that, it's too scary!"

How can I describe it? When you lie down, there's someone sitting right next to you, staring at you with eyes that glow red in the dark.

Does it feel creepy or not?

That's absolutely outrageous.

Anyway, Bai Ye couldn't sleep.

"Fine, you can sleep in the bed with us, sleep over with Titi."

In the end, Bai Ye had no choice but to make this decision.

Fortunately, their bed was big enough.

Chapter 124 Cohabitants

"What a terrible bathtub, not even a fraction as good as the ones back home..."

"Skadi, you actually put up with not having a smart toilet."

"Life on Rhodes Island is... such a hassle, such a hassle."

Having regained her senses, Laurentina began washing up in Baiye's dormitory, bringing over her meager luggage and personal belongings.

Then came all sorts of complaints.

She had wanted to complain about these things for a long time, but unfortunately, her original consciousness was always buried deep in her mind, unable to control her body or express herself.

Right now, she just wants to say something satisfying.

Skadi ignored her. She sat on the sofa, swinging her legs, wiping her weapons, and humming a song softly.

Bai Ye had no idea what she was humming, but she was definitely in a good mood.

In this tranquil environment, Bai Ye also relaxed. He took out the scabbard of "Arc Light" and began to maintain the only spellcasting staff he owned.

However, this quiet atmosphere was soon broken by a third person in the room. Miss Ghost Shark finished her shower and came out wrapped in a towel. Water droplets slid down her smooth calves and dripped onto the floor.

Bai Ye began to frown.

Ghost Shark didn't blow-dry her hair; she enjoyed the feeling of her wet hair clinging to her skin. After all, as Argorians, they all preferred a humid environment.

However, the consequence of this is that water droplets are everywhere.

"Perhaps I should change the material of the floor? The wood is just too awful." Bai Ye sighed.

Bai Ye said that she still needs some time to adjust to the new residents in the dormitory.

Of course, Bai Ye would never admit that most of his dissatisfaction and resentment towards Ghost Shark was because the girl had disturbed his and Skadi's sweet time together.

He's not that shallow!

Putting aside subjective feelings, Specter is indeed an exceptionally outstanding young woman. She has long white hair and red eyes similar to Skadi, fair skin, and a tall figure. Whether she is wearing a nun's habit or a Deepsea Hunter's combat suit, she is quite eye-catching.

"Why is it that the hair color of you deep-sea hunters is mostly white, and your eye color is also a similar red?" Bai Ye asked curiously.

“Maybe it’s because we’ve both undergone modifications? Deepsea Hunters are connected by blood.” Skadi shook her head; she probably had never thought about this question before.

"Because we always live in the deep sea and never see the sunlight, both our hair and eye colors are similar." Unlike Skadi, Specter gave a more scientific explanation.

After thinking for a moment, she added, "If you ask our captain this question, she'll probably give you a more detailed explanation... well, or maybe she'll just ignore you."

She sighed, "But there's no point in saying all this. We don't know how many Deepsea Hunters are still alive. Maybe even the captain..."

“Skadi always thought she was the only surviving Deepsea Hunter, so she was overjoyed to see you, but unfortunately you weren’t in good shape at the time,” Bai Ye said, recounting his experience rescuing Ghost Shark.

"No wonder you looked familiar; you were here back then too." Ghost Shark suddenly realized. At the time, she was in a daze on the verge of madness, so she only had a vague impression of Bai Ye.

“But I always feel that there should still be deep-sea hunters alive,” Bai Ye suddenly said.

He had met other Deepsea Hunters before his journey, though he didn't know who they were, but he had indeed met hunters who were different from Skadi and Specter.

“I hope so.” Ghost Shark’s expression suddenly turned strange. “If the other deep-sea hunters are alive, wouldn’t they be able to smell your scent too? It seems we need to protect you before they make their move.”

"Take care of yourself. You know how our battle turned out." Bai Ye rolled his eyes in annoyance. This guy was clearly his defeated opponent.

Ghost Shark smiled and nodded: "I almost forgot, you're different from other land dwellers, you're much stronger than them... Could it be that this is also a result of the modification of the sea creature part in your right arm?"

“He was always that strong,” Skadi, who was wiping his weapons, answered for Bai Ye.

"It seems that even among land dwellers, there are exceptions, but most of them are very weak and pose no threat at all..." Ghost Shark does indeed have an inherent arrogance towards the land.
