Ark Undead

Ines wisely lowered her stance, believing that this way of communicating was the best way to flatter her superiors.

The immortal nodded.

"explain."

“I want to stay with you and Rhodes Island for the time being. I’ve met Dr. Kal’tsit once and also met that Doctor… although my experiences with them were definitely not friendly. But for now, they are the only people I can trust.”

At this point, Ines immediately realized she had missed something, so she added another sentence.

"Of course, there's also you. Thank you for lending me a helping hand at this critical moment."

At this moment, Ines simply thanked the false king of Kazdel. If she hadn't had the experience of meeting him, Ines wouldn't have known how to communicate with these powerful figures.

To her surprise, the undead weren't interested in her talk of her relationship with Rhodes Island. Instead, they were much more interested in the information she shared about the leader of the Reunion Movement.

“You just said, ‘Reunion Movement, leader.’”

The Undead stared at her, as if he had grasped some interesting information.

"Yes, her name is Talulah, the current leader of Reunion. Her combat strength is currently unknown. However, judging from the attitudes of various high-ranking members of Reunion towards her, her strength must be top-notch, perhaps even comparable to that Ursus general who betrayed the party."

Ines decisively revealed everything.

"Although her race is currently unknown, based on our existing intelligence, we can speculate that she is a Drak from Victoria. After all, the defining characteristic of a Drak is the two dragon horns on their heads."

Ha, here it comes.

The interest of the immortals was instantly piqued.

Isn't this the person he's been looking for? He never expected to find news of her in Chernobyl.

“I was just passing by when I saw her heading to the camp. She was talking to a high-ranking member of the Reunion Movement. It wasn’t the first time I’d seen her, but it was the first time I’d seen her so close.”

"Her shadow, bathed in sunlight, seemed alive, wriggling and trying to spread outwards. At that time, I felt as if two people who were originally unrelated had been deliberately merged together by some great force."

Ines swallowed hard, recalling the moment she saw the shadow, and a surge of suppressed emotion welled up inside her.

"Within her body, another consciousness was imprisoned, as if locked in a cage at the bottom of the deep sea. It tried to escape, but was held back by some unspeakable terror."

At this point, Ines's breathing suddenly quickened, and tiny black roots suddenly sprouted in her field of vision.

"I... um..."

An immense terror enveloped her, and at that moment she felt she couldn't say anything.

Just then, the Undead stretched out his right hand and placed it on Ines's shoulder.

In his palm, a tiny flame, without Ines's own awareness, crashed into Ines's body, completely incinerating the screaming, fleeing You Shen.

At the same moment, Ines, who had been somewhat dazed, gradually recovered and realized that something was wrong with her emotions.

"Thank you."

The dark-haired, dashing mercenary shook his head and then pressed his forehead.

In her mind, she only felt a sense of fear about the fact and was not aware of anything else.

But in the eyes of the undead, as Ines recounted what she had seen, wisps of black smoke began to rise from beneath her feet.

It was the flame he hid in his palm that burned it all away.

The Undead withdrew his hand from Ines's shoulder.

The flame that had circled Ines's body returned, now even larger. Like a satisfied burp, it returned contentedly to the undead's body.

Well, now the Undead have really developed a strong interest in that leader named Talulah.

First it was related to the ancient dragon, and then it became tainted with the aura of the abyss.

Putting that aside, if Ines's feelings are true, then her perception, as told by her amazing Originium Arts, is correct.

That probably involves the fusion of two souls into one body, a process known as soul fusion.

Even the undead have some recollection of this special method.

Looking at Talulah now, it's practically a blatant message to the Undead.

I am the box, inside which lies the thing you most want to know. Come and open me!

If it weren't for the fact that the Doctor was also very important, the Undead would want to find out Talulah's location right now, and then run over there to extract all the answers to his questions from her head.

Seeing the Undead's thoughtful expression, Ines felt a little uneasy.

Although revealing everything was her last attempt to seek refuge, she had no other choice if no one accepted her offer of refuge.

Fortunately, the immortal thought for a moment and then asked.

"You're planning to ask Rhodes Island for help?"

Ines was overjoyed. Since the dead man had asked, it meant that he had at least considered helping Ines with this favor.

"I plan to seek refuge on Rhodes Island and then find an opportunity to tell W and Hedley this news!"

Regardless of Ines, the three of them had already established their goals several years ago.

No one can ignore the gentleness and brilliance of that true king. Even though that light has faded, its warmth remains and cannot be erased.

"Then, come with me."

"The Undead said."

"Thank you so much!"

Ines finally breathed a sigh of relief; at least now she didn't have to worry about where to go next.

Meanwhile, on the other side of Chernobog, in the Reunion camp.

The silver-haired infected leader looked grimly at his subordinate kneeling before him.

"You mean, out of a dozen or so people, not a single mercenary was caught, and most of them even died. In the end, only you guys came back?"

"It was my dereliction of duty! However, based on my assessment, they were completely outmatched in battle, which is why I ordered a retreat."

As the squad leader, the crossbowman at the front bowed his head and spoke respectfully.

"On the way back, we also found the unconscious Queen Killer. She was also seriously injured and is currently receiving treatment."

"Humph..."

Surprisingly, this tyrant, who was originally ruthless and decisive, simply snorted and then waved his hand, signaling them to leave first.

The pursuit team felt like they'd been granted a pardon and quickly evacuated the room.

After closing the door, Talulah looked out the window at the chase team running in a disheveled state towards the infirmary, and her eye twitched involuntarily.

Punishing them is pointless now; the burning sensation she just felt has already explained everything.

After a few minutes of silence, the guards outside the door heard their leader's voice calling for them.

They immediately pushed open the door and entered, awaiting their leader's orders.

Talulah turned to face them.

“I have to leave Chernobog temporarily. All plans related to Chernobog will be handed over to Frostnova. Let her implement them step by step according to the original goals.”

"Yes!"

The guard lowered his head, agreed, and then immediately left the room to inform Froststar Chieftain of the news.

He simply couldn't understand why the Great Chieftain had to leave at this crucial moment.

It's really puzzling.

189. This is the power of a PhD!

"Doctor?! Protect the doctor!"

When I woke up, everything in front of me seemed a little unfamiliar.

The last thing I saw in my mind was the flames before my eyes and the tall figure standing in front of me, bowing his head and saying something about the burnt me.

Haha, to be honest, if I didn't actually feel a burning sensation on my body, I wouldn't think I had ever been burned.

But the burning sensation was so real, it felt as if I had always been in a furnace throughout my life, being relentlessly burned by the flames.

However, my past life...

Did I really have a past life? Why is there still nothing in my mind?

"Doctor! Doctor, cheer up! Come on! Help me get the doctor up!"

Who am I, and why can I see the colors hidden in their bodies?

Everyone looks the same to me, only their colors are different.

But only that person, and that little girl, had a special color and a special shape.

Why...why did I wake up...why are they calling me Doctor?

Who are they again?

"A doctor?! A doctor!"

...

Snapped!

A slap landed on the doctor's face. Although his mask had absorbed much of the force, the remaining impact was enough to bring him back to his senses.

"Doctor, can you hear me?"

A serious and earnest voice rang in the doctor's ears. The doctor opened his eyes and saw two figures squatting beside him.

One was a girl with two big ears on her head, and the other was a heroic female knight who was raising her right hand, seemingly not minding to do it again if the doctor was still not awake.

"Miss Nearl! Stop! The Doctor isn't feeling well right now. Just try it once!"

Amiya quickly reached out and grabbed Nearl's hand, stopping her from violently waving it away.

here you go...

The doctor shook his head. He was genuinely a little scared; the slap he'd just received still made his head buzz. If he were slapped again, he didn't know what would happen to his head.

"Amiya..."

The doctor spoke, bracing himself on the ground with his right hand, trying to lift his body up as well.
