Arknights' Lock of Heaven

"The cold wave... has dissipated?" Huang struggled to get up.

"Huang?" Amiya looked at her with concern.

"I'm fine, Amiya, quick, go check on that white rabbit!"

“A beautiful win, Rhodes Island,” Frostnova stood rooted to the spot, her face deathly pale.

"The Reunion Movement...we...have accomplished nothing..."

"My life... has no value whatsoever..."

Froststar slowly fell to the ground.

Amiya wanted to rush forward when she saw this, but found that a figure had already caught her.

"Hold on!" Amiya came to her. "You promised me you'd join Rhodes Island!"

“What an innocent rabbit,” Frostnova said with a gentle smile. “I lied to you.”

“I hurt you all. Reunion and I targeted innocent people, single-handedly creating a dark future for the Ursus infected… People like that… don’t deserve to live on…”

"I thought that even if I died on the battlefield this time, those fools, my compatriots, my brothers and sisters, would at least get a place where they would be allowed to live..."

"In the end, it was all a lie..."

"I'm not reconciled... Our lives are just pawns in those people's game..."

"Ah, brothers and sisters of the Yeti Squad, even if we survive, where can we go? We have nowhere to go at all; all we know is that snowfield."

"Thank you, Amiya, thank you for giving this dying man his last hope."

“Miss Frostnova,” Amiya’s eyes filled with tears.

Huang slammed his fist into the ground, suppressing the silent rage in his chest.

Greythroat silently and clumsily picked up the crossbow with his stiff fingers and stood behind Amiya.

She had so much to say, but when it came to it, she couldn't express it.

Can only be silent.

Big Bear was crying his eyes out and collapsed on the ground.

Doctor... she was still the same as always, and no one knew what expression was on the face behind the mask.

“Amiya, listen to me,” Frostnova said, barely raising her hand to touch Amiya’s face.

“I know this is irresponsible, and it’s despicable to place my hopes on others without my consent, but… I have no other choice… Talulah… I’m counting on you.”

Amiya did not answer her.

She simply looked at Xia Yu in silence.

She also placed her expectations on others without permission.

“It’s too early to talk about these things now,” Xia Yu said, reaching out to remove the still-radiant flower from Shuangxing’s chest.

"The Everlasting Flower from Avalon is not just a useless thing that never withers."

"This is a divine object that countless emperors, even those who have achieved unprecedented feats, have coveted!"

66 The Flame in My Heart

The biting cold has disappeared.

"Hey, Pink Sausage Dragon," Swire frowned slightly as she looked at Chen Wei, "The people from Rhodes Island should be alright, right?"

"I hope so," Chen said, looking at the special anti-freezing suit he was halfway into, and then at the gradually dissipating cold mist at the entrance.

She had a big argument with Lin Yuxia, and then rushed over after receiving news that Amiya was trapped underground. However, the battle was over before she could even put on her frostbite suit.

“This temperature… is comparable to a minor natural disaster,” Hoshiguma said, glancing at the thermometer in her hand. “The prognosis is grim…”

“It’s hard to say,” Lin Yuxia said thoughtfully. “It seemed like Rhodes Island knew the Yeti Squad before.”

"Perhaps they won't go for the kill."

The black-clad commander next to him twitched his lips. "Grandma, don't provoke Chen now, this powder keg that's about to explode."

Hearing this, Chen frowned, and just as he was about to retort, he heard Hoshiguma shout, "Come out!"

The surrounding Guard members all gripped their weapons, on high alert.

Who knows who will come out next...?

"Be smart, everyone," Xia Yu instructed, holding Shuangxing in her arms. "Control your expressions. Remember, I'm holding a dead person."

"Especially you, Big Bear!"

Big Bear looked at his bound hands and quickly lowered his head.

You can't laugh in front of the Sengoku team.

"They're out!" Hoshiguma squinted. "Not a single one is missing..."

"With temperatures like that, wow, Rhodes Island is something else."

Seeing this, Chen breathed a sigh of relief and silently took off the protective suit that he had only put on halfway.

Lin Yuxia glanced at her and pursed her lips.

Ever since Chen returned from studying in Victoria, the two have been at odds.

"Are you alright, Amiya?" Gavial was the first to rush over. "Let me see!"

Upon hearing her voice, both Huang and Amiya's lips twitched simultaneously.

How could you forget this?

Only Greythroat looked puzzled.

“I’m fine,” Amiya said firmly, taking a tube of frostbite ointment from Gavial. “This is enough. I have something very important to discuss with Dr. Kal’tsit.”

Then he bypassed Gavial and ran to Xia Yu's side in a flash.

Huang watched Amiya's retreating figure in despair, then put on an expression as if he were saying "we'll die together" and pulled the bewildered Greythroat along.

Actually, Gavial's medical skills... are not problematic.

However, her technique inherited the same rough style as that of the Sargon rainforest, and she didn't pay much attention to the patient's feelings.

As the Great Chieftain, Gavial's reputation is as... well, unruly as her personality?

Her performance on the battlefield was too dazzling. After seeing the scene of using that staff, which was theoretically meant for healing, as a warhammer to open people's minds... anyone would be worried, right?

Although her treatments were no worse than those of other doctors, the reputation of the "Rampaging Doctor" grew increasingly sinister.

Even she herself doesn't care.

Amiya is coordinating with her teammates.

Just now, she sent a request through Rhodes Island to meet with Wei Yanwu.

A formal meeting.

The doctor silently followed behind her, seemingly intending to go with her to the center of power in Lungmen.

Xia Yu, on the other hand, took a completely different path.

Big Bear, with his hands bound, followed behind him.

"Hey, Rhodes Island," the black-clad commander asked with a smile, "what's that in your hand?"

"What?" Xia Yu looked up, revealing a bright smile. "Are you interested?"

The commander in the black cloak suddenly shivered.

Xia Yu was clearly smiling, but seeing that smile sent a chill down his spine.

“No,” he tried to keep his voice calm, “it was just… a casual question…”

Heavens above, he just wanted to talk nonsense. After all, Xia Yu had embarrassed him so much in the sewers before, so he couldn't wait to see Xia Yu's expression after she found out the truth.

That expression must have been quite amusing.

So I couldn't resist teasing them a little.

“Speaking of which,” Xia Yu said thoughtfully, looking at him and the group of men in black cloaks behind him who seemed out of place with the Royal Guard, “it seems I still have a score to settle with you…”

Upon hearing this, the Black Cloak Commander wished he could slap himself twice.

Why do you say you're the most despicable person?

If the sewer issue were exposed in public, the scene would be...

Wei Yanwu can forget about having a good life.

Even if it's fake, it can become an excuse for someone with ulterior motives to attack him.

Sometimes, what those people need is not the truth; a baseless rumor can bring down a high-ranking official.

As long as the interests behind them are strong enough.

Clearly, too many people want to profit from Longmen.

"Hmph," fortunately, Xia Yu was just using this as an excuse and didn't intend to fight to the death.
