Reincarnation NPC, but Arknights

He never expected that the aristocratic-looking girl he casually encountered outside would actually be a genuine young lady from a wealthy family.

"Hermann Dorkos is your father?"

"Ah."

Although Bai Ye had never met the mayor's so-called daughter, he had met the mayor a few times before. Siesta City was considered a very beginner-friendly area, but due to its pleasant environment, it was quite popular among players.

Mayor Herman Dorkos is a very handsome middle-aged man. Because of his looks and temperament, he is also loved by a group of players who are into older men, and has a lot of fans.

Bai Ye also came across posts about this person on the forum.

Upon closer inspection of Ceylon, Bai Ye quickly noticed that the girl's hair was a rather beautiful light pink, almost identical to Herman Dorkos's hair color.

They truly are father and daughter.

"Go back and get some rest." Bai Ye shook his head, his attitude unchanged despite Ceylon's identity.

Now that his perspective and status are different, even if he wants to talk about something, he will only go to Hermann Dorkos. He has nothing to say to this young lady in front of him.

To be honest, Bai Ye always felt that this young lady had some issues. What was she doing here? Was she looking for a thrill? She didn't even bring a bodyguard.

Bai Ye exchanged a glance with Ghost Shark and also saw a hint of mockery in her eyes.

Seemingly noticing the strange looks from Bai Ye and Ghost Shark, Miss Ceylon stammered, "As a scholar, sometimes one has to take risks and conduct field research..."

"For example... I previously detected abnormal tremors and fluctuations in the waters here. Could that be related to those monsters?"

amount……

After hearing what Ceylon said, Bai Ye was at a loss for words.

I see. No wonder this young lady was here.

"The two are unrelated, and those monsters wouldn't deliberately cause such a commotion..." After thinking for a moment, Bai Ye decided to tell the truth and explained, "The abnormal fluctuations were because of... us. We were underwater... well, playing in the water, so we made quite a commotion. It was just a false alarm, thank you for coming all this way to check."

"Miss Ceylon, thank you for your hard work."

Bai Ye felt somewhat helpless; it turned out that the root of the problem was caused by the three of them.

This is a bit embarrassing.

"..."

"Eh?!"

Ceylon was stunned for a moment before she realized what was happening.

So the commotion was caused by these people in front of us?

Hmm, thinking about it carefully, judging from their fighting posture just now, they do seem to be much stronger than ordinary people. It's normal for them to make a big commotion while playing in the water, right? — What a load of rubbish!

How could the monster climb ashore after normal people were playing around?

However, the monsters weren't a big deal, and it seems that the problem has already been solved.

Ceylon knew there were more pressing matters to attend to.

Volcano, yes, volcano.

They are currently on a beach near the foot of the volcano.

“I’m going to go check out the volcano,” Ceylon suddenly said.

"What's wrong with the volcano? Is it about to erupt?" Bai Ye asked casually.

However, Ceylon nodded seriously, clearly not joking: "Very likely. The samples and data I have now show anomalies, but the monitoring station says there is no problem. I suspect there is a problem with the instrument."

"..." Bai Ye raised an eyebrow.

Is there such a thing?

It seems we've never encountered anything like this before. If a volcano really erupts, it will definitely be a big deal, and neither the players nor the natives will be able to remain completely unaffected.

It seems that the issue was resolved before it occurred, or perhaps the players didn't even receive the quest, and the native NPC handled the emergency themselves.

After thinking for a moment, Bai Ye looked at Ceylon and said, "Why don't you explain in more detail?"

"Hmm?" Ceylon was a little puzzled. Although she was grateful to the person in front of her for saving her life, she didn't have much time to waste explaining volcanology, Originium Arts, and natural disasters to a layman.

Even she herself isn't a professional.

However, just before Ceylon could find a way to politely decline, Bai Ye took out an ID and a token from his pocket.

Ceylon was stunned the moment he saw the token.

"Crisis...a contract?! Looks like I've hit the jackpot this time."

This game is highly recommended.

Chapter 140 It doesn't matter, I'll take action.

(My old book, "The Priest of Arknights," is currently 60% off; you can check it out if you're interested.)

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

Undoubtedly, Miss Ceylon breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the documents and tokens in Bai Ye's hands.

Putting aside the Crisis Contract organization for the moment, just the fact that this person in front of her was a messenger of natural disasters told Ceylon that she had hit the jackpot. After all, she had run away from home specifically to investigate the situation and, incidentally, find the professionals among the tourists.

Putting aside the fact that she fell into the Originium swarm, her clothes were torn, and she saw the deep-sea monster, perhaps today really is her lucky day.

“I am indeed the messenger of the natural disaster, and these two are my… well, guards. Can you tell me what you know?” Bai Ye saw that Ceylon was stunned and thought she did not believe his identity.

"Ah, okay... Actually, this is what happened."

Ceylon then came to her senses and quickly told Bai Ye about the current situation and the sample data she had.

Bai Ye took the report, while Ghost Shark watched the spectacle from the sidelines.

As for Skadi, she walked over to Bai Ye's side, glanced at him, then looked away with a lack of interest and even yawned.

Bai Ye then began to carefully review the samples and data that Ceylon had in her possession.

Despite his usual self-proclaimed status as a mediocre scholar, Bai Ye is a genuine messenger of natural disasters. He not only passed the crisis contract test but also spent his experience to truly master the knowledge related to messengers of natural disasters.

Therefore, although Bai Ye, the player before his transmigration, knew nothing about various spells, Originium Arts theories, or knowledge, he now had a surplus of experience points and had leveled up all the useful knowledge-based skills.

No more being a 9-Intelligence Warrior! To be fair, White Night isn't exactly an idiot, Originium; his combat intelligence is quite high. However, because his Originium Arts adaptability is 0 and he can't use magic, he's always teased by the casters at the "Libertine Tea Party."

If Bai Ye were to travel back in time now, she would definitely slap them in the face.

……

After reviewing the analysis, Bai Ye confirmed Ceylon's guess: "The monitoring station's data is indeed problematic; this volcano is gradually becoming active."

"Sure enough, it must be a problem with the instruments at the volcano monitoring station!" Ceylon slammed his right fist into his palm.

Bai Ye smiled and said, "How can you be so sure it's a problem with the equipment and not a problem with people? In this situation, the local disaster messengers didn't do anything or react at all. They're either fake, incompetent idiots or doing it on purpose."

"Huh?!" Miss Ceylon was taken aback by Bai Ye's words.

She had never thought of it that way before, but now that Bai Ye had mentioned it, she sensed something was wrong.

"Could it be that there's something wrong with Kronin?" Ceylon muttered to himself.

"So the person I'm working with here is called Kronin..." Bai Ye said thoughtfully.

He feels a little strange now.

Judging from Ceylon's reaction and the data she provided, the volcano has indeed shown abnormalities and has a high probability of erupting. The city located next to the volcano is likely doomed.

Such a big thing is about to happen, which can be considered a major crisis. However, he had not received any news about it before he transmigrated. After the Obsidian Festival, everything was peaceful.

'It seems someone intervened back then, perhaps a native inhabitant, or maybe a player? If it was the latter, they probably didn't release the quest walkthrough.'

"White Night, should we get involved?" Skadi asked from the side.

Although she didn't understand the messy data and predictions, she wasn't completely clueless; at least she had a general idea of ​​the crisis that was about to be faced here.

“I don’t care,” Ghost Shark said, arms crossed. “What happens to the cities on land is none of my business. However, I have to stay by your side, so you decide for yourself.”

“Mr. Baiye, we need your help.” Ceylon bowed to Baiye and pleaded, “We can gather evidence of the impending natural disaster, then go to the city hall and have them evacuate the tourists and residents…”

"Why make it so complicated?" Bai Ye shook his head.

"Huh?" Ceylon was a little confused. She didn't know what went wrong with her actions.

"Leaving aside whether the city hall people will believe you, if Kronin really has a problem, he definitely won't let you have your way." Bai Ye said, pointing to the volcano. "Besides, the volcano hasn't erupted yet, has it?"

"Then... what should we do?" Ceylon was somewhat at a loss.

Bai Ye snapped his fingers: "It's simple. As a messenger of natural disasters, as long as you prevent a natural disaster before it occurs, you've completed your mission."

"Huh?!" Ceylon's eyes widened; she had never heard of such a thing before. According to the common sense of the Terrans, the duty of the Cataclysmic Messenger was to collect data in the wilderness, predict natural disasters, and then return to the city to issue warnings to the people.

There's no such thing as a Catastrophe Messenger who can eliminate natural disasters... This is like the healers in the medical department being more powerful than combat operators, how is that possible?

Bai Ye ignored the bewildered Ceylon and looked at Skadi and Specter: "Interested in taking a trip inside the volcano?"

Yes, even knowing that the matter would be resolved, Bai Ye was still prepared to intervene.

How long after this volcano erupts will the Siesta people be able to escape?

Bai Ye: It doesn't matter, I will take action.

“Wherever you go, I’ll go.” Skadi brushed a strand of white hair that fell beside her ear.

"Hehe, it's a good opportunity to collect some rare stones." Ghost Shark clearly didn't object to Bai Ye's suggestion.

"What a pity, the holiday will have to be interrupted for a while." Bai Ye sighed, then looked at the swimsuit in his inventory with some regret.

For training and instruction, both Deepsea Hunters are currently wearing combat suits, which are quite pleasing to the eye, but I still really want to see Skadi in a swimsuit.

A baby killer whale without a swimsuit is like the West without Jerusalem, or the 3D zone without Tifa; those who haven't seen it are destined for a relatively unsuccessful life.

"It's alright, there will be other opportunities when you come back." Skadi seemed to have seen through Bai Ye's thoughts and whispered in Bai Ye's ear.

Actually, Titi had no idea why Bai Ye wanted her to wear those kinds of clothes.

The ghost shark's ears twitched slightly.

Whispers can't escape the notice of deep-sea hunters; their ears and senses are extremely sensitive.

Laurentina glanced meaningfully at Bai Ye.

……

"I want to go too!" Ceylon finally realized.

"Miss, please don't get involved. Leave this to us." Bai Ye looked helplessly at the disheveled Ceylon. "Your clothes are still half-damaged."

"Ah!" Ceylon then realized that her clothes had been corroded to shreds by the acidic Originium bugs, revealing her private parts, which was practically a freebie.

The blushing girl covered her body.

"What an idiot..."

Bai Ye rolled his eyes and then gave her a set of clothes.

"Get dressed, then go back. A young lady like you is just a burden in the wild..."

Chapter 141 An Unexpected Helper

"I didn't expect you to be so direct. That child went back with a long face."

Ghost Shark looked at White Night with amusement.

"I've already been restrained enough," Bai Ye said dismissively.

After arriving on Terra, he felt he had become friendly enough and gradually began to learn how to communicate with people.

Before his transmigration, the gaming experience of those bosses who teamed up with him was basically zero. Aside from being carried to victory, they had no other enjoyment. Bai Ye, finding them too weak, told them to stay far away and then soloed the monsters, bosses, and dungeons.

They didn't care about the boss's feelings at all.

He's still live-streaming.

However, because his skills are so good, coupled with the promotion from other top players and star players in "The Libertines' Tea Party", he has no shortage of orders and making a living is not a problem.

“That’s right, if you’re too weak, you shouldn’t bother coming along.” Ghost Shark nodded.

Then, she asked with some curiosity, "What did you say to her before you left?"

“I told her to go find the undead for help, instead of foolishly going to confront that Scourge messenger named Kronin alone.”
