Arknights' Lock of Heaven

Why didn't you move away?

Xia Yu simply wanted to experience the taste of pain.

Don't get me wrong, he's not a masochist, it's just that... people have feelings.

In such a scene, any normal person with feelings would be moved.

The things that infected people like Froststar have experienced have never happened in his life.

Even on the perilous Absolute Monster Front, he inherited this powerful body, rather than being an ordinary person struggling at the bottom.

His immense power and the Holy Grail in his hands gave him more options.

Although being pierced through the body by Rahmu was really painful, it couldn't compare to the excruciating pain Frostnova experienced on the snowfield.

Although it was only for a moment, Xia Yu was still touched by the emotions that burst forth with the ice crystals.

He suddenly wanted to experience it.

But the moment the ice crystals shattered her uniform but failed to penetrate her body, Xia Yu regained consciousness.

Why do I have such high and mighty ideas?

The joys and sorrows between people are not the same.

How could one possibly experience the other's heart-wrenching pain through just a few attacks?

To even have such thoughts is incredibly arrogant.

"Why don't you get out of the way?"

"Because the flowers never wither."

"What?" Frostnova didn't react for a moment.

Xia Yu spread her hands, "Because of the everlasting flower from the Court of Avalon on your chest."

"I owe that white-haired guy a favor; you're one of the people he's been favoring."

Since Merlin isn't in this world, I can just spout nonsense as I please.

"Just because of this?" Froststar stared at the flower the old stubborn man had given her on her chest.

Although it has never withered, it is quite miraculous, yet it has such a history?

“Just because of this,” Xia Yu said with a serious expression.

"So you won't even intervene if I attack them?" Frostnova pointed at Amiya.

“Your life is nearing its end,” Xia Yu shook her head. “As for Amiya, don’t underestimate her.”

"Although I can't attack you, but," Xia Yu smiled slightly, a chain suddenly shot up unexpectedly, binding the big bear tightly beside her.

"It would be nice to capture a prisoner and take him back to Rhodes Island."

"I heard Rhodes Island has a special treatment for Oripathy?" Frostnova glanced at the bear.

“Of course,” Xia Yu didn’t forget to shut up the big bear, “we’ve always been the best.”

“Then, leader of Rhodes Island,” Frostnova turned to Amiya, “your magic is quite peculiar.”

“In this state, I can sense that you seem to be trying to read my emotions.”

"Since you're so eager to know... then take a good look."

Compared to Xia Yu, Froststar is more interested in Amiya.

"See just how brutal the Ursus snowfields really are!"

"Amiya, break the spell!" Huang said urgently to Amiya.

“I… I’ve stopped casting spells…” Amiya replied with difficulty, “Her emotions… are flooding into my consciousness…”

“Here, in these final moments of life,” Froststar murmured, “I have no reason to suppress the winter within me any longer.”

65. Expectations imposed on others without authorization

"The temperature has dropped sharply, it has reached..."

"Oh no! This low temperature is causing my instruments to malfunction!"

"What the hell!" Huang activated his Originium Arts again, releasing a wave of heat, but it was quickly swallowed up by the cold air. "Are all the Reunion Movement members humanoid natural disasters?"

"What is the lowest temperature ever achieved by Originium Arts? I'm afraid she broke through it layer by layer, pressing it to the ground, right?"

"Aren't you going to stop, Frostnova?"

"What else do you want to say?" Frostnova asked expressionlessly.

"Stop now! White-haired rabbit, if you keep going like this, you'll really kill yourself!"

"Hmph," Froststar snorted coldly, continuing to push her body to release the cold current.

Huang: "You're really going to die! Stop pretending!"

"What do you think my mindset was when I stayed here?" Froststar said calmly.

"Whether it's killing someone or being killed... I absolutely do not want this to happen between infected people," Huang shouted urgently. "What reason do we have now to fight to the death?"

“No, I have reasons,” Frostnova raised her hand. “I have far too many reasons.”

"Amiya-1, Blaze-4, the whole squad, get out of here," Amiya ordered the squad members behind her. "Gavial, you go out too. You're the medic; we'll need you to save us later."

The crocodile girl looked dejected and left with her team members.

Although I enjoy fighting, now is not the time to be reckless.

She is still very sensible.

"Who is the strongest sniper in the squad?" Huang asked, looking at Frostnova.

“Me,” a detached voice replied.

It's gravidarum.

Although they had a very unpleasant falling out before, the two reconciled during this battle.

“You’ll die if you stay,” Huang said calmly. “Are you sure you want to recommend yourself like this?”

“I am the strongest here right now,” Greythroat repeated.

"Okay, you stay. Everyone else, get out!"

Against an enemy like Frostnova, one or two small squads would not be an advantage, but rather a hindrance.

Unless they are all elite operators like Blaze.

Unfortunately, the other elite operators in Lungmen were searching through the ruins left by the Yeti Squad, and it was just that Amiya and Blaze happened to find them.

But now Frostnova is fighting desperately.

Even if we contact other teams, by the time they arrive to provide support... it will probably be too late.

Froststar watched them silently as they arranged their troops.

The big bear next to Xia Yu was still struggling.

He couldn't just watch his older sister fight alone.

Unfortunately, the strength of the Heavenly Lock was beyond his ability to break free.

“I know why you can endure the pain of Originium crystals seeping from your skin,” Amiya murmured, looking at Frostnova. “I felt it…”

"The pain in your heart is many times greater than this pain..."

The battle has begun.

"Is it really because of that flower?" The professor stood quietly beside Xia Yu and asked softly, "I don't think so."

For some reason, it seemed that everyone ignored her presence and just let her walk from Amiya's side to Xia Yu's side.

"Who knows..."

Xia Yu said nonchalantly, "Maybe it's just that I'm happy."

“I can feel it,” Amiya said, holding her sword in her right hand and extending her left hand toward Frostnova. “You are different from them.”

"Unlike those integration movements that are full of hatred."

"You can join us, join Rhodes Island, and we will do everything we can to cure your Oripathy."

"Don't continue like this."

"Are you ready?" Frostnova ignored Amiya's invitation.

"Compression, Explosion!" Upon hearing this, Huang activated his Originium Arts and launched an attack.

She had no idea what Amiya had sensed from Frostnova's emotions.

But she could sense the determination emanating from the white-haired rabbit.

I can no longer move her with words.

“Not bad a surprise attack,” an ice blade materialized out of thin air, blocking Huang’s terrifying chainsaw. “But did you think I was a weakling because I’m a sorcerer?”

"Tch, are you serious?" Huang retorted.
