Reincarnation NPC, but Arknights

Unfortunately, there aren't many.

After all, even the valiant Adakles were still far inferior to the combat weapons created in the deep sea.

So all these warriors were lying on the ground, making it seem as if Ghost Shark was the real demon king.

"It's alright. If you want to have some fun, I'll keep you company tonight." Bai Ye restrained the slightly frantic Ghost Shark.

After hearing Bai Ye's words, Laurentina obediently put away her fist.

"...Looks like you can become chiefs here too, you're so good at fighting..." The high priest wasn't surprised, he just made a sarcastic remark.

Clearly, his extensive knowledge and experience meant that Bai Ye and Ghost Shark were not simple people.

"Um... I'm sorry, my people are all a bit slow... But I really like this machine."

Zumama squatted down, holding Hanai2 tightly, not wanting to let go.

However, she finally sighed and let go.

“If it weren’t for this tribe, I would have followed you... The place that can build this kind of robot must be very, very powerful. I want to go there to learn mechanical technology.”

“Actually, I’ve wanted to leave for a while, but with the tribe around, I can’t get away for the time being. You’ve seen it yourself, these guys are so naive, they need someone to lead them.”

Zumama was somewhat regretful, but she still made her choice.

"It's okay, there will be opportunities in the future... Besides, I'll get one for you during future transactions too." Bai Ye smiled and offered a condition that Zuma simply couldn't refuse.

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

"Why can't you be simpler... They're also quite weak and primitive, and it's such a hassle to trade with them."

After leaving, Ghost Shark asked with some curiosity.

“That old bird is no simple thing…” Bai Ye shook his head.

Moreover, Bai Ye did not like the approach proposed by Ghost Shark.

Even before the Federation of Humans was formed, a certain country adopted this method to treat the local indigenous people.

That's too barbaric; it's not a civilized approach.

"Then let's do it your way."

The Ghost Shark is indifferent to civilizations on land.

However, Bai Ye had clearly become a very important person to her.

The girl is also slowly being changed.

"I will come back here in a while, and then we will be able to see an even more magnificent and interesting view underground."

Bai Ye plans to have the field agents help him collect Terra's famous wines.

From Colombia to Yan, from Longmen to Dongguo, he will not let any of them go.

To win over Dulin, you have to start with alcohol.

Chapter 40, a little more wouldn't hurt.

(Someone in the group chat spread a rumor yesterday that I forgot to type because I was playing games. I want to clarify that this is not a rumor.)

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

After leaving Zuma's tribe, Bai Ye personally went to the mine to investigate.

At the same time, he also used the bird divination device on Hanai 2 to find the secret cave leading to the underworld that the high priest had mentioned.

In addition to the labyrinthine caves, there is also a rather spectacular underground river.

No wonder Zumama mentioned before that she had heard from the elders of her tribe that there was a large cave system under Akahura.

Although he was pleasantly surprised to learn that there was a city called White Night in Dulin below, he was completely unprepared, and with the meeting about to begin, he had to return to the core city to prepare, so he didn't have time to go any further.

"Let's explore the area ahead another time."

White Night left a mark here.

At the same time, he entered the coordinates of the underground cave entrance into his personal terminal.

Bai Ye himself was also very curious about what changes would occur in this primeval rainforest after he began cooperating with Zuma's primitive tribe and a large influx of players entered.

Especially after the players come into contact with the local Adakles people.

Players are a very interesting group; they excel at integrating into different skill levels and becoming one with the crowd. Even seeing a player join a tribe and become a primitive warrior wouldn't surprise Bai Ye at all.

Not all players are pursuing power levels; rather, while pursuing power levels, they are also discovering the fun in the game.

……

After some twists and turns, White Night and Ghost Shark returned to the near-ground aircraft that was originally stationed near Akahura two days later.

However, as Laurentina approached, she suddenly frowned.

"Those guys are nearby."

“Yes, I know, those newly born sea gods…” Bai Ye sighed.

The girl narrowed her eyes in disdain.

Well, although Ghost Shark knew and understood that these guys were not their enemies, and even knew that these people might be one of the keys to their fight against the deep sea.

However, I still can't bring myself to like it.

Just like Luo Tianyi, who knows that being picky about food is bad and that cabbage is good for people, he just can't stand the taste of cabbage.

Of course, hostility is impossible.

Ghost Shark stood behind White Night, lost in thought.

"We meet again, what a coincidence, fellow land dweller." Alty stood under the shade of a tree, smiling as she looked at Bai Ye.

"Yes, I didn't expect to see you here... Is the Sunset Band here looking for inspiration?" Bai Ye was a little curious as to why such a rare NPC would spawn in a place like this.

Simply outrageous.

"We're lost."

"The car broke down."

"Just looking for inspiration."

The members of the band Sunset is Gone are all talking their own thing; some are telling the truth, some are giving irrelevant answers, and some are being vague.

Bai Ye nodded.

He had long heard about how unreliable these guys were.

However, Bai Ye suddenly noticed a pendant hanging on Alty's chest.

It was a dark red, three-dimensional geometrically structured crystalline substance, its material resembling crystal, clear and lustrous.

"key?"

Bai Ye frowned.

"You know about this?" This time it was Alty's turn to be a little surprised.

“Hmm…this is what my girlfriend found in Kazimierz.”

White Night and Skadi parted ways. The girl traveled alone to Kazimierz to retrieve the key. She then gave the key to Dr. Kal'tsit.

After returning to Rhodes Island, Bai Ye specifically spoke with Kal'tsit, warning her not to bully the simple-minded Titi and to make her do hard labor.

Because of this incident, Bai Ye learned what the girl had been searching for.

Clearly, this thing is related to Agor; it must have been something that the "islanders" who escaped the deep-sea catastrophe and came ashore brought with them.

Skadi was searching for it because of certain clues.

"All I know is that it's a key, but I don't know the specifics," Bai Ye shook his head.

“For every key, there is a lock.” Alty looked at Bai Ye, then suddenly reached out, took the key from her chest, and handed it to him.

"??" Bai Ye was somewhat puzzled.

"This is from the old woman... This was given to you by Dr. Kal'tsit, right? Why is it being given to me?"

Alty smiled, looking somewhat mysterious: "I think it might be better to give this to you."

“Dr. Kal'tsit gave it to us, and we can give it to you as well.”

"..."

Bai Ye looked at the key that was handed to him, but did not reach for it immediately.

Having encountered the Deepsea Hunters and gained his understanding of the game before his journey, few on this land probably understand the danger of the terrifying enemies in the deep sea better than him.

However, even in the sixth version before the time travel, the deep-sea storyline was not yet available.

What Bai Ye knew was all based on the revelation that Chu Sheng gave him in his right hand.

That is the knowledge belonging to Haisi.

“You’re right, every key has a lock. If you want me to be the one who unlocks the lock…”

Bai Ye reached out and took the relics that the Agorians had brought to the land.

"Though it is not heavy, young man, we entrust the fate of the earth and the sea to you as well."

Although it seemed like a hasty decision made on a whim, every member of the Sunset Forever band showed an unexpected level of seriousness.

Although it sounds strange, since these behemoths are never very serious, at this moment, they are completely different from their usual playful demeanor.

However, Bai Ye acted quite strangely.

Despite the seriousness of the canned food, he laughed.

Bai Ye reached out and gently took Yao Shi, seemingly without feeling its weight at all.

"The fate of the land and the sea... it's nothing new. What I carry on my back is the weight of an entire planet and civilization... what's a little more?"

Bai Ye said softly to himself.

No one could hear what he was saying.

However, Alty breathed a sigh of relief.

……

"Do you want to continue? I still have some Originium fuel here."

Bai Ye put away the key, ignoring his slightly feverish right arm, opened the cargo hold of the aircraft, took out a portion of Originium fuel, and handed it to Alty.

"Oh, that's a huge help. Looks like we can move on now... Remember, don't forget to contact us. Although the doctor probably will too."

Chapter 41 Returning to the Core City

(I cut my nails; I'm getting used to my new body.)

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

"Was this found by an orca?"

Ghost Shark looked at the key in White Night's hand.

This is a strangely shaped key; if forced to describe it, Bai Ye would prefer to call it a skewer of candied hawthorns. Three geometric shapes are strung on a thin black metal rod.

Inside the translucent crystal, it seems as if blood is flowing?

However, it's not Skadi's blood; it must have come from someone else.

Unfortunately, Bai Ye was elsewhere at the time and did not accompany Skadi on this adventure, so he did not know much about the origin of the key.

"I never thought that after all this time, this thing would come right back to me..." Bai Ye said with a hint of helplessness.

This thing was obtained by the AUS members from Dr. Kal'tsit, and now Bai Ye has taken it over, which means he has to go back to the old woman...

"Perhaps they think you're a better fit than them? After all, your arms..."

Ghost Shark reached out and gently placed his hand on White Night's right hand.

Interestingly, while Laurentina harbors a very clear aversion and hatred towards Hai Si, she does not have the same feelings towards Bai Ye.

The girl's expression when she was moved didn't seem like she was forcing herself at all.
