Ark Undead

One coin, a gift from a friend.

It was a little trinket that the taciturn man tossed onto her head when they said goodbye outside Chernobog.

Even though it was just a coin, Froststar could feel a sensation called temperature from it.

Therefore, she kept it close to her body.

Today, the light emitted by this coin shines a golden glow in everyone's eyes.

boom!

The Yeti team was violently pushed away by the shockwave, and the golden halo acted like a thick barrier, separating Frostnova from everyone else.

The Originium on Frostnova seemed to have encountered its natural enemy, melting away and falling off her body, leaving only the part that had originally taken root in her.

Everyone saw her lithe body again, gently supported by a soft, golden light, and slowly landed on the ground.

And her body was shimmering with golden light.

This is a miracle, a miracle of her accepting the gift.

Farewell Tears

It is the miracle taught by Archbishop Moen of the Age of Fire, and also the story of Quart, the God of Tears.

This miracle was originally created to give the dying enough time to say goodbye.

But under the influence of the initial flame and that man, it gained even greater power.

Perhaps this was the immortal's selfish desire, but he truly did not want to see warriors striving for their ideals die in the darkness before dawn.

According to his will, this power keeps people away from darkness.

This was the only time he escaped death.

after all.

Tears are shed for the living, far more so for the dead.

Bathed in that light, Froststar's eyes were slightly closed, her sleeping face serene, and the corners of her mouth seemed to be slightly upturned, revealing a smile.

Shh...she's sleeping soundly.

written request for leave

236. Repair

As the golden light faded, the Yeti's princess landed on the ground and fell peacefully asleep.

The slight rise and fall of her chest confirmed that she was not dead.

"Miss!"

The Yeti team stumbled and rushed toward Frostnova, surrounding her in the middle.

Despite the cold in his palms, the bear, clad in the thickest armor, removed his gloves and placed them in front of Frostnova's nose to check for breath.

"It's...it's alright."

Big Bear breathed a sigh of relief, and the members of the Yeti team around him also felt a great weight lifted from their hearts.

This is their leader who led them through the snowfield obstacles, and also their beloved big sister.

If Frostnova were to die in Lungmen, they truly wouldn't know how to explain it to Lord Patriot.

Of course, I don't know how to explain this to myself.

The doctor whispered the command into the headset, and within seconds, the Rhodes Island members surrounding the battlefield swarmed around the Yeti squad.

After Frostnova lost consciousness, Big Bear naturally became the leader of the Yeti squad.

He stood up, glanced around at the enemies, pursed his lips, gripped his weapon, and said nothing.

Instead, Scout, who appeared out of nowhere, walked up to the Doctor.

"PhD..."

"I know, go ahead."

The doctor turned to look at Scout, but couldn't see his expression behind the mask.

"The Yeti Squad is our spoils of war and will become Rhodes Island's prisoners; it has nothing to do with Lungmen."

Before the doctor could even process what was happening, he spoke to Chen, who was sitting on the other side of him.

"Officer Chen, shouldn't you at least give me this much face?"

Chen did not refuse. The doctor was right. If it weren't for Rhodes Island's involvement, even the leaders of the Reunion Movement probably wouldn't have been able to stay after this trip to Lungmen, not to mention the potential casualties that might have occurred later.

"It's entirely up to the PhD to decide."

Chen nodded and agreed to the doctor's request.

Seeing this, Scout turned around and went to the Rhodes Island operators, speaking to Big Bear.

"Reunion Movement, your leaders have all lost their fighting ability. Stop resisting!"

Scout knows Big Bear, and Big Bear certainly knows Scout.

Their eyes met, and Scout continued.

"Rhodes Island will imprison you until we decide what to do with you. Until then, calmly await your fate."

Big Bear glanced at Scout in front of him, then at the Lungmen Guard, and pursed his lips.

"cut."

Then, Big Bear threw away the weapon in his hand.

"Everyone, lay down your weapons."

Some of the Yeti team members standing behind the bear couldn't understand his actions. But led by some of the older Yeti team members, they all put down their weapons and put their hands behind their backs.

Seeing this, the doctor stepped forward, lowered his head, and whispered something in the bear's ear.

"Her condition is dangerous. She needs immediate treatment. Don't struggle or resist anymore. Someone will take you back to Rhodes Island."

Big Bear responded in a low voice.

"Yes, thank you."

Both sides actually knew each other to some extent, especially Scout and Big Bear. Otherwise, Big Bear wouldn't have chosen to give up the fight.

Furthermore, Scout owed Frostnova a favor last time, a fact known throughout Rhodes Island. Within Rhodes Island, Frostnova is listed in the operational guidelines as a leader who could be turned against them.

Therefore, the doctor would naturally not give up this opportunity.

Frostnova's formidable strength has been fully demonstrated in this battle, along with her fearless Yeti squad.

If they truly abandon their evil ways and embrace the light, Rhodes Island will not fail to reward such a powerful ally.

The professor took two steps back and waved.

"Special handling will be handled by professionals. Frostnova, as the leader of Reunion, will be taken in and imprisoned by us. The other two leaders of Reunion will be handed over to the Lungmen Guard. Alright, let's get started."

"Yes, Doctor!"

So everyone who needed to be mobilized got to work. Rhodes Island's fully armed Infected rescue personnel contained Frostnova in a specially designed container without physically touching her skin, isolating her from the Originium dust in the air and keeping her in a safe environment.

Meanwhile, the unconscious Bonebreaker and the Kingkiller, who had completely lost consciousness due to injuries and whose fate was unknown, were also brought to the Lungmen Guard Bureau.

Chen glanced down at the two Reunion leaders Rhodes Island had entrusted to her, and couldn't help but sigh again.

"As expected of the doctor from Rhodes Island, he did a flawless job, both on the surface and in reality."

Chen understood that Rhodes Island wanted Frostnova and her team. In exchange, Rhodes Island handed over two other leaders of the Reunion Movement to Chen.

Coincidentally, Chen also needed these two people to give an explanation to the citizens of Longmen and to reassure the people above him.

This outcome is acceptable to both Lungmen Guard and Rhodes Island.

But one last question.

"So, they still managed to take the key?"

Chen came to the doctor's side and asked in a low voice.

"Ah."

The doctor nodded and said.

"The three leaders of the Reunion Movement stayed in Lungmen, while a mercenary's collaborator left, and this mercenary is quite powerful. Miss Nearl isn't good at pursuing, so she should have already left Lungmen."

"..."

Chen sighed. Although the battle seemed to have yielded fruitful results, the most crucial task had not actually been completed, which was somewhat unacceptable to Chen.

"However, there's always a way. We'll talk about the rest later. Let's go back first."

The doctor led the way to the Lungmen Guard Bureau.

“There are still many things to deal with, we can’t stop here, Officer Chen.”

...

On the other side, W, who had almost reached the gate of Lungmen City, looked back at what was behind him.

The girl named Nearl and her team followed W closely. W was somewhat amazed that she, a mere front-line combat type of soldier, could keep up with a mercenary like her, who specialized in reconnaissance and special operations, for so long.

Are all the operators on Rhodes Island monsters? First Scout, and now Nearl.

Just as W was thinking this, a clear whooshing sound came from behind him. W tilted his head, dodged the arrow, and then leaped a few times on the rooftops before continuing to run forward.

Before them lay the exit of Lungmen City. The Lungmen Guard members lying scattered on the ground, along with the lingering icy mist and thin ice, confirmed that a battle had taken place here.

W glanced down at the time on her watch and sighed.

Frostnova has likely been left there. Given her physical condition, the fact that she managed to hold out for W for so long suggests she's already...

Now, the Reunion Movement is left with only itself and the Patriots, who can shoulder some of the burden, but...

W is not the leader of the Reunion Movement. She will only ever fight for her own purposes. Talulah's words are nothing to her.
