Ark Undead

The immortal instinctively leaned forward.

He certainly knew that the woman the doctor was referring to was the Fire-Binding Woman.

"Although it's just some fragments, I feel I should tell you."

The doctor carefully recalled the scene he remembered.

“I saw her once, inside a special facility. At that time, I think I was one of the engineers involved in manufacturing... no, perhaps it was modification.”

“The features you described match her perfectly: silver-white hair with golden strands, and a tall and elegant figure. But the only difference is that her eyes are intact; they are grayish-white.”

"However, when I think of her, I feel that she is the Fire Girl."

The doctor then described the woman's characteristics in detail, and the Undead listened for a while.

Silently, the Undead tapped his fingers on his thigh.

If it was he who gave her the eyes, enabling her to regain her sight, then that would certainly make sense.

"Well, how should I put it, I don't know her name, and I've almost forgotten what she looks like. But I have a feeling in my heart that she is the Fire Girl."

The doctor added.

"Back then, as a fire-elemental woman, she provided a lot of help for our experiments. So we all respected her very much... wait a minute."

The hooded man paused, as if he had thought of something. But a look of doubt flashed in his eyes, and he ultimately swallowed his words.

"what happened?"

For the first time, the Undead's tone carried a hint of concern. He was genuinely interested in what the Doctor had remembered.

The doctor shook his head.

"It's nothing, let's get back to our previous topic."

It seems the doctor has no intention of revealing what he was just thinking about.

"The Fire Mage has been in the facility for quite some time. In a sense, she's our colleague."

"At that time, I probably didn't know Kal'tsit, and I didn't know Amiya either... How should I put it, it felt like at that time, I wasn't in Terra, and my colleagues were just like me."

"Same as you?"

The immortal was slightly puzzled.

"Wearing a hood?"

"No, this is a protective suit..."

Dr. said.

"What I mean by different is that they don't have extra ears or extra tails... Strange, why would I say extra?"

The doctor sensed something unusual about his words and subconscious.

For the people of Terra, there are multiple races, each with its own characteristics.

For example, the Felin tribe to which Melantha belongs has four ears, two hairless and two hairy, and also has a tail behind it.

“They are not, Terra, race.”

"The immortal asked."

"Just like you?"

"Yes."

The doctor nodded.

"I do not belong to any race on the existing continent of Terra. My appearance is the closest to... a pure human..."

The doctor's voice gradually faded.

"In other words, all my colleagues are pure human beings."

The doctor was silent for a moment, and when he looked up again, he said something that made even the immortals think deeply.

"Perhaps, that time was before Terra."

"Back then, there weren't as many races as there are on the continent of Terra now; there was only a race like pure humans. Back then..."

The professor fell into deep thought again, picked up the notebook in front of him, turned a page, and wrote something on it.

He wasn't in a hurry even if no one died; he knew these things couldn't be rushed. The doctor was one of the few people who could provide him with clues.

He's already waited so long, he doesn't mind waiting a few more minutes.

After a long while, the doctor finished thinking.

"Sorry, I just thought of something else."

The doctor shook his head, regrouping his thoughts.

"To put it simply, I can barely recall that at that time, I was a project leader who collaborated with the Fire Mage to find a way for us to survive in extreme environments."

The doctor paused for a moment, then added.

"This extreme environment isn't a natural disaster, nor is it something like a tsunami. It seems to be a simple catastrophe that could threaten all of us. Moreover, this catastrophe is related to the environment we were in at the time, similar to... similar to an abyss."

"Moreover, what I am aware of is that the era I live in is absolutely different from that of Terra. And I have also experienced a period of slumber, not just these three years."

"The sarcophagus in Chernobog is a makeshift structure we modified to preserve a person's mind and body, isolating them from external disturbances, and directly connected to... directly connected to..."

The PhD student's thinking got stuck on the word "direct connection" again.

After a long while, the doctor finally let out a breath.

"Sorry, I can't remember anything else."

"fine."

The immortal did not ask any further questions.

The information the Doctor provided didn't offer the Undead much information. However, the fact that the Doctor had seen the Fire Mage was a very good omen.

As long as the doctor continues to recover, one day he will be able to remember what he went through.

Moreover, it seems that the Doctor knows some information that is different from the current era. Perhaps the Doctor also experienced the Great Yan God-Slaying War?

According to the doctor's description, the Undead are already suspecting that the doctor may be of the same race as them, both being dwarves from the Age of Fire.

Otherwise, what exactly is this "pure human" that the doctor is referring to?

Having finished exploring his own memories, the doctor's breathing gradually calmed down. It was clear that exploring his own memories was a mentally taxing task for him.

"Oh, right."

The doctor then thought of something else.

"Now that you're back, why don't you take some time to visit Froststar?"

If the Doctor hadn't mentioned it, he would have almost forgotten that Frostnova was still on Rhodes Island.

"How is she?"

The Doctor took another sip of coffee to perk himself up, and when he mentioned Frostnova, his words became somewhat strange.

"Well... how should I put it? Frostnova's condition is improving very quickly, faster than any of the medical operators had imagined."

The Undead nodded; this was within his expectations.

"continue."

After all, the Undead gave Frostnova a drink of the treasures of the Age of Fire, the blessing of the goddess.

Even a dying soul can recover at an extremely fast speed.

“We originally hoped she would join us as an operator. Of course, due to the special nature of the Reunion Movement, she didn’t seem to be able to accept it, but we didn’t force her to.”

"So, when her body recovered to a certain stage, we simply granted her the right to move around, allowing her to have the right to move around within Rhodes Island."

"Then, she became a rotating employee at the coffee shop."

"?" The Undead was stunned for a moment, seemingly unable to accept this turn of events.

"A coffee shop?"

"Correct."

The doctor nodded.

"It's the coffee shop where you had a private conversation with SilverAsh before."

325. The White Rabbit

As the Doctor said, Frostnova gained the right to move freely on Rhodes Island two or three days after the Undead left.

This may sound harsh, but in reality, as a high-ranking member of the Reunion Movement, even if it was just a former Reunion Movement, it was inevitable that there would be a lot of friction with some operators.

For example, the Ursus student self-governing association members who were once locked up in the school and escaped alone.

Their attitude towards Frostnova wasn't exactly friendly. However, after the Doctor's persuasion, at least they wouldn't cause Frostnova any more trouble.

Perhaps Frostnova herself knew that she was destined not to receive a good attitude at Rhodes Island, so she did not force it.

To be honest, if Frostnova hadn't been so determined to stay, the Patriots' Shield Guards would have taken her away and started anew.

Regardless of whether they succeed or not, they cannot abandon the will left behind by the Patriots, and Frostnova is certainly aware of this.

The girl, who doesn't express much emotion to begin with, is now learning to do things she's never done before just to have a place on Rhodes Island.

For example, working as a waiter in a coffee shop.

The Shield Guards couldn't understand why Frostnova would choose to stay at Rhodes Island. But they simply respected her choice and stayed as well, also as an unofficial member of Rhodes Island's squad.

Those who remained were also the children of the Yeti Squad.

They shed their heavy fur clothing and moved into the ship's cabins, which were not very cozy, but warm and safe enough.

All of this was a change Frostnova made to adapt to Rhodes Island.

As for why she chose to stay, Da Xiong and the others didn't ask.

Knowing only that her eldest sister would never harm her, she settled down and lived with her peacefully, often being assigned tasks and shifts.

Perhaps it was because their identities weren't that important, and Scout's team also knew some people.
