I, Yuhaka, am hungry!

"Enemy attack! Get out of the vehicle and engage the enemy!"

Upon hearing Warfarin's words, Angelina and the others in the car quickly got out and took out their weapons. Yuhaka, standing to the side, also used his power to conjure a switch axe. Angelina and the others were quite surprised to see Yuhaka conjure a weapon out of thin air, but with the enemy at hand, they were more concerned and didn't ask any questions.

Warfarin felt a headache coming on when she saw Yhaka conjure weapons out of thin air. She could imagine what would happen if the engineers on Rhodes Island found out about Yhaka's ability to conjure weapons out of thin air. However, Warfarin was more concerned about the enemy's current situation. Judging from the attack just now, it seemed that there was only one person, and that he could use Originium Arts. He was very likely an Infected.

Soon, on a high ground, Warfarin and the others saw a figure carrying nearly a dozen weapons looking down at them from the high ground.

Chapter 292 [Infected Girl: I want it so badly...]

Warfarin and the others were also somewhat surprised to see the figure appear on the high ground. The figure in front of them was a petite girl with long blonde hair and pink eyes.

"A girl?!"

Upon seeing the enemy, Finn and the others looked quite surprised. They seemed a little taken aback that the attacker was a petite girl. Warfarin, however, noticed something: there were crystalline substances on the girl's thighs. Warfarin frowned and said:

"An infected person in the wild... This is troublesome..."

For Warfarin, the infected in the wild are basically either mercenaries or bandits, or perhaps refugees or messengers of the Scourge. However, messengers of the Scourge generally do not attack others without reason.

But the infected girl in front of them was definitely not friendly. She was carrying more than a dozen weapons and looked like a formidable opponent. Moreover, due to the Oripathy infection, most of the infected in the wild were very aggressive and fought like madmen. Fighting them was unlikely to end well.

Before Warfarin could even ask the infected girl why she attacked them, Yuhaka rushed forward. Angelina and the others didn't even have time to react before Yuhaka swung his weapon at the infected girl. The infected girl immediately dodged Yuhaka's attack, since the huge battle axe in Yuhaka's hand didn't look like something to be trifled with. The infected girl didn't try to block with her own weapon; it was better to just dodge.

After the infected girl dodged Yuhaka's attack, she pulled out three small knives from her back, then threw the knives, which were covered in flames, at Yuhaka.

Yuhaka, without hesitation, swung his battle axe and knocked the weapon thrown by the infected girl away.

Warfarin was somewhat surprised to see the Originium Arts used by the infected girl change from a rock-covered spear to one covered in flames. Warfarin knew very well how much time it took to learn the applicability of Originium Arts, but the infected girl in front of her seemed to be able to control the changes in the attributes of Originium Arts very well, which surprised Warfarin.

Currently, there are quite a few caster operators on Rhodes Island who can perform such operations, but Warfarin felt that it was unlikely that the infected girl in front of her had been taught those Originium Arts by someone else.

After all, the infected girl was wearing tattered clothes—no, more like a rag than clothes—and most of the weapons on her back looked like they hadn't been properly maintained. This made Warfarin wonder if the infected girl had been wandering alone in the wild for a long time.

Then Warfarin said to Fen and the others around her:

"Fen, you three go and support Youyou quickly. Remember not to hurt that girl. Also, tell Youyou to be careful and see if you can capture the child alive without harming her!"

"Yes!"

Upon hearing Warfarin's words, Finn, Beagle, and Klose understood. Klose switched to the electric arrows to paralyze the opponent. Then Warfarin turned to Angelina and said:

"Angelina, provide support!"

"I understand!"

Upon hearing Warfarin's command, Angelina also raised her Originium Arts staff with both hands to provide an acceleration field for Yuu and the others, which immediately made Yuu and Finn feel much lighter.

Feeling much lighter, Yuhaka transformed his switch axe into a greatsword. The infected girl opposite him nearly popped her eyes out of their sockets in shock when she saw Yuhaka change his weapon from a switch axe to a greatsword.

Fortunately, the infected girl reacted quickly, dodging the incoming electric crossbow bolt with a roll. She then drew a one-handed axe from her waist, imbued it with Originium Arts, and threw it towards Kroos. Kroos was caught off guard when the infected girl threw the "very cold axe" at her. Luckily, Beagle saw this and quickly stepped in front of Kroos, blocking the axe with his shield.

With a loud thud, the axe thrown by the infected girl froze perfectly on the shield Beagle was holding. Beagle shivered as he felt the chill emanating from the shield. Kroos looked at Beagle and thanked him, saying:

"A~li~ga~do, Migru~"

Beagle, his teeth chattering, said to Klose:

"No, you're welcome..."

Although Beagle could block the weapons thrown by the infected girl, she had no way to defend against the infected girl's Originium Arts, since the shield in her hand had low resistance to Originium Arts.

Fortunately, the shield was of good quality and was not pierced by the axe thrown by the infected girl.

While the infected girl's attention was drawn away by Beagle and the others, Finn quickly said to Yuhaka:

"Youyou, when we capture that infected person alive, remember to show some mercy to your men!"

Finn just saw Yhaka wield a weapon almost as big as herself, as if she were waving a feather. Finn is pretty sure that if someone were hit by that weapon in Yhaka's hand, they would definitely be turned into a meat patty.

Upon hearing Fen's words, Yhaka nodded in understanding and transformed his greatsword into a pair of swords. Fen was surprised to see Yhaka's weapon turn into a pair of swords, and the infected girl opposite Yhaka, seeing Yhaka break his greatsword into two longswords as if breaking chopsticks, immediately had a look of "I want one!" on her face.

Seeing the infected girl opposite him looking like she wanted his weapon, Yuhaka naturally shouted at her:

"Youyou's, I won't give it to you!"

Upon hearing Yuhaka's words, the infected girl pouted and said with a displeased expression:

"I, I don't care!"

Although the infected girl said this, her eyes were still fixed on the weapon in Yuhaka's hand, her face showing desire. Warfarin, standing behind Yuhaka and the others, looked at the infected girl with some confusion, touching her chin. For some reason, Warfarin felt that this infected girl seemed a little strange...

Chapter 293 [Warfarin: I've captured a new Rhodes Island operator!]

Amidst the clash of weapons, Yuhaka brandished his twin swords and engaged the infected girl, who wielded a one-handed axe and a machete.

Finn and the others stood by, looking completely dazed. Although they were unharmed, they couldn't join the battle between Yuhaka and the infected girl!

The battle between those two was completely beyond the reach of low-rarity operators like them. The way Ehaka and the Infected Girl were constantly cutting through the ground or using fire, ice, and Originium Arts to brush past each other, how could they possibly get involved?!

Fortunately, Warfarin didn't let them join the battle between Yuhaka and the infected girl, since Yuhaka and the others were just too strong.

Warfarin was well aware of how strong Yhaka was; she could easily take down the infected girl on her own. She also kept Finn and the others out of the fray to prevent friendly fire. Although Warfarin wasn't worried about Yhaka accidentally injuring Finn and the others, she was concerned that they might accidentally run into Yhaka.

Soon, with a swing of her weapon, Yuhaka knocked the flaming machete from the infected girl's hand. Seeing her weapon sent flying, the girl instinctively looked at the flying machete. Seeing this opening, Yuhaka gave her a quick, adorable bear hug. The infected girl tried to break free, but unfortunately, Yuhaka's strength far surpassed hers, and she couldn't escape. Just in case the girl lifted her up, Yuhaka straightened her back and lifted her up.

"Eh eh eh?!"

The infected girl, lifted up by Yuhaka, also looked surprised. Clearly, she hadn't expected to be lifted up by this small person in front of her. But that didn't mean she wouldn't struggle. Because Yuhaka was holding her hands, the only things she could move were her swaying legs and tail.

"Awooo! Put me down! You bad guy! You shorty! You little rascal!"

In response to the infected girl's insults, Yuhaka, with a cross-shaped mark appearing on his forehead in anger, retorted:

"Waaaaah! Wa ...

Uh... because of the height difference between Yuhaka and the infected girl, when Yuhaka hugged the infected girl, his face was almost buried in her chest. The female operators present couldn't help but cover their chests when they saw this scene. Only Warfarin looked calm. After all, as an older woman, Warfarin had gotten used to (despair) that her body hadn't developed for a long time.

Because the infected girl's chest prevented her from speaking properly, Yuhaka became even angrier and grabbed her, throwing her to the ground. The infected girl looked panicked as she rapidly approached the ground, but unfortunately, with a loud "thud!", her head slammed into the ground. When Yuhaka released her, the infected girl lay motionless on the ground, her eyes swirling.

After seeing that Yuhaka had subdued the infected girl, Warfarin and the others breathed a sigh of relief. Warfarin then had Finn and the others tie the infected girl up with ropes and collect the weapons and equipment that the infected girl had dropped around her. After all, these were things that someone had thrown out, and it would be troublesome if one of the weapons had any special meaning to the infected girl.

Soon, with Yuhaka's help, the group quickly gathered all of the infected girl's weapons, totaling 21 weapons. Apart from two one-handed axes, five machetes and longswords, two short knives, a spear and an Originium Arts staff, the rest of the weapons were small weapons such as daggers and knives.

Warfarin looked at the pile of weapons in front of her and couldn't help but complain:

"My God, is this girl a traveling arms dealer or a walking arsenal?"

Finn and the others broke out in a cold sweat. After all, the infected girl was carrying so many weapons on her back and yet she was fighting Yuhaka with incredible agility. If it were them, they would have been exhausted by the weight of the weapons long ago...

Angelina looked at the infected girl lying on the ground with her eyes darting around and said to Warfarin:

"Dr. Warfarin, what are you planning to do with this child?"

Hearing Angelina's words, Warfarin scratched her head and looked at the infected girl with a blank expression, saying:

“That’s true… Judging from the Originium crystals on this child, the infection level seems quite high. It would be better to have him checked out on Rhodes Island later.”

Hearing Warfarin's words, Angelina breathed a sigh of relief. Although the child had attacked them, Angelina didn't know why. In her heart, Angelina felt that the child didn't seem like a bad person, and it would be better to send the child to Rhodes Island for a check-up.

After Yuhaka and the others put the infected girl and her weapons into the car, Warfarin and the others got into the car and headed back.

..................................

"Ugh... Hmm??"

The infected girl woke up from her dizziness looking confused. After she fully regained her senses, she found herself in a car. Then, she turned her head and saw a silly face with an "OwO" expression in front of her.

"Wowaaaaaaaa?!"

Startled by Yuhaka, the infected girl let out a cute scream and hurriedly twisted her body, trying to get away from him. Unfortunately, due to the seat belt, she couldn't move very far.

Angelina and the others, who were sitting in the front seats of the car, turned around to see what was happening to Yuhaka and the infected girl after hearing the commotion behind them.

"What's wrong, Youyou?! I just heard a really loud noise."

Upon hearing Angelina's words, Yuhaka turned to look at Angelina and the others and said:

"She's awake..."

Upon hearing Yuhaka's words, everyone turned their attention to the infected girl who was trying to struggle against the seatbelt and rope restraints. Then, when the struggling infected girl saw that everyone's eyes were on her, she showed her little tiger teeth and howled at everyone.

Chapter 294 [Back to Rhodes Island]

So cute...

The Rhodes Island operators seated all looked at the infected girl as if she were a cute little girl. Warfarin, sitting in the passenger seat, looked at the infected girl and asked:

"How are you feeling? Is there anything bothering you?"

Hearing Warfarin's words, the infected girl subconsciously shook her head. However, recalling how she had been brutally beaten by Yuhaka and the others before, the infected girl immediately showed an expression of not wanting to talk to them. Seeing the infected girl's reaction, Warfarin showed a speechless expression and said:

"Why do we seem like the bad guys?"

You attacked us first, didn't you...?

The infected girl shook her head, looking around as if searching for something. Warfarin, seeing this, immediately understood what the girl was looking for and said to her:

"Alright, don't worry about your weapons, they're all stored in the trunk of the car."

Hearing Warfarin's words, the infected girl, looking angry, flashed her little fangs and said:

"Give me back my weapon!"

Warfarin didn't react much to the infected girl, but instead turned her head to look at the girl in front of her who had her back to the infected girl and said:

"We can return it to you, but you'll have to follow our instructions before we can do so."

Hearing Warfarin's words, the infected girl looked at Warfarin's retreating figure with a disdainful expression and said:

"Hmph, I won't listen to you and do bad things."

Upon hearing the infected girl's words, the Rhodes Island operators present all looked at her speechlessly. After all, this infected girl had attacked them earlier and said she wouldn't let them do anything bad...

Then Angelina, who was standing nearby, asked the infected girl:

"Then why did you attack us?"

Upon hearing Angelina's question, the infected girl clearly looked embarrassed and said:

"I'm hungry..."

As she spoke, the infected girl's stomach rumbled. Hearing her words and hearing her stomach rumble, the Rhodes Island operators present all wore speechless expressions. So, it turns out you attacked us because you were hungry?!

Hearing the infected girl's words and hearing her rumbling stomach, Yuhaka said to her:

"Stomach? Are you hungry?"
