Ark Undead

The Yeti Squad members, on the contrary, lived a more peaceful life on Rhodes Island than anyone could have imagined.

Some people have even become friends with Rhodes Island operators.

This is a change, and also a process of integration. Big Bear also saw these things. He knew that his older sister intended for everyone to come into contact with the Rhodes Island staff and gradually integrate into the Rhodes Island atmosphere.

So they did just that.

Frostnova's efforts naturally caught the attention of the elite operators. They could sense that the people who originally belonged to the Reunion Movement were gradually letting go of their hatred and beginning to embrace their ideals.

During a relaxing drinking session, Huang also shared his thoughts with Ace and the others.

"If only she had been on our side from the beginning."

Yes, if Frostnova had been a member of Rhodes Island from the beginning, she might be among the elite operators today.

Ace's response was...

"Wouldn't it be better if that patriot could also stand on our side? Let's face it, Frostnova is already working hard for her ideals, and we need to be realistic too."

In fact, Frostnova has never abandoned the core ideas of the Reunion Movement.

The initial guiding principle of the Reunion Movement was to help infected individuals gain social status.

But under Talulah's leadership, the Reunion Movement went astray time and time again, ultimately leading to this fate.

Patriots were also sacrificed in the core city, becoming the ticket for the remnants of the Reunion Movement to avoid persecution.

But they never gave up; at least until now, Frostnova is still trying.

"A cup of coffee, two sugar cubes, a spoonful of sugar... Oh, right, do you have panini today?"

"Panini, yes."

Froststar's voice was cold, just like her.

When you actually stand in front of Frostnova, even without touching her, just by making eye contact with her, you can feel a chill creep up from your feet to the top of your head.

That wasn't fear, it was just a physical sensation.

Frostnova's body was also cold; just standing next to her felt like the refrigerator door hadn't been closed.

That was a consequence of her Originium Arts, or perhaps it was simply her inherent nature.

Froststar picked up the cup in front of her and placed it under the coffee machine. She then casually unscrewed the box containing sugar cubes and carefully placed two sugar cubes onto the plate.

Then I went back and took the thawed panini out of the refrigerator and put it in the oven.

Now, some operators will come to the café to order a coffee, just to see what this leader from the Reunion Movement looks like.

Some operators might secretly show goodwill towards Frostnova, or... something else entirely.

Of course, it's no secret that anyone with ulterior motives would be deterred by Frostnova's icy gaze.

However, her coldness was different from before.

Big Bear, who has been by his older sister's side for many years, is now happy to see her getting better.

Thanks to the gift from the Undead, Frostnova's body miraculously improved considerably.

As a critically ill patient, she should have died on the battlefield long ago. But now her body can feel warmth again.

She was no longer afraid of slightly warm broth, nor would she get burned by holding the handle of a coffee cup.

Now, she finally has the right to live as an ordinary person.

The sugar cubes fell into the coffee cup like pebbles, splashing up dark brown water.

Having prepared everything, Froststar brought the coffee and food to the guests' table.

She looked at the guest with her chillingly cold eyes, and then spoke softly.

Please enjoy.

"Ah...okay..."

The Filin operator, who had finally returned for a vacation, had no idea that another ice beauty like her had appeared in the coffee shop.

Although she was indeed pleasing to the eye, you could still sense a strong sense of oppression when she brought the food over.

But after she had gone far away, the Felin operative couldn't help but steal a couple of glances at her retreating figure.

"A new operator... I wonder where they came from."

This is Frostnova's job: working shifts at the café. And she only works at the café; she doesn't go anywhere else.

Although Big Bear and the Shield Guards would occasionally come back to check on her during breaks from missions, the café was definitely not as lively as it used to be.

After all, not everyone would be willing to face a former leader of the Reunion Movement, even if she seems to have turned over a new leaf.

On this rare peaceful afternoon, the café welcomed a special guest.

He appeared here clad in heavy armor, exuding the composure of an ancient knight who seemed to have stepped out of a book.

Upon hearing the noise, Froststar raised her eyes and looked in that direction.

"Frost Star".

The Undead stepped into the coffee shop and saw Frostnova, who in turn saw him.

Upon arriving at the counter, the Undead carefully examined Frostnova for a while, noticing that the damp cloth in her hand had not frozen into ice.

Thus, the immortal knew that his medicine had worked.

"How are you feeling?"

When asked by the Undead, Frostnova simply lowered her eyes and answered in a low voice.

"not bad."

However, her voice was no longer as cold as when she spoke to the guests; instead, it carried a hint of panic.

puff!

The Feline operator who had been watching the conversation almost spat out his coffee.

Is this the same waiter who almost gave him goosebumps just now? Did they suddenly replace him when he wasn't looking?

Do you have time?

"The immortal asked."

"Let's chat."

Froststar didn't hesitate. She turned around and opened the door to the back room, leaving only one sentence for the Undead.

"wait."

Then the immortal heard a cry of alarm and two flustered words coming from the back room.

"Huh? Just me? Is that okay?"

"Yes, I have something to do. I'll be back in a bit."

"Hey, how do I turn on the oven? You haven't taught me yet!"

"Then there will be no pastries for now."

The immortals only heard these two sentences before the door to the back room was opened again.

Froststar was still wearing the women's suit she wore as a barista; the black fabric made her eyebrows, eyes, and hair appear even whiter.

Let's find a place.

she says.

The two did not leave the coffee shop.

In fact, Frostnova still had work to do, so she could only take a short break and slack off for a while. After talking to the Undead, she had to go back to work.

"Are you comfortable on Rhodes Island?"

The Undead was sitting by the window, the same spot he'd sat in last time. Last time, SilverAsh sat opposite him; now it was Frostnova.

The only thing they had in common was that they both had snow-white hair.

"We have to adapt."

Frostnova's words were resolute; she did not believe that she had any other choice after leaving Rhodes Island.

"It's not just for me, but for Da Xiong and the others, for my father's unit. I have to choose to adapt."

Frostnova saw it clearly: Rhodes Island might be the only organization that would accept the remnants of the Reunion Movement right now.

The two more rational factions within the Reunion Movement, the Yeti Squad and the Shield Guards, are also very well-suited to Rhodes Island's environment.

Frostnova remains as a symbol, and her actions have become the face of both units today.

She can adapt, and so will the two units.

But that's not what the Undead wants to ask.

I mean you.

The Undead pointed at Frostnova; he didn't have as many thoughts as the Doctor and Kal'tsit.

He asked Froststar, simply asking Froststar, the friend who had let him stay overnight in the snow.

"..."

Froststar turned her head away, her expression somewhat unnatural.

It was simply that the straightforward way of saying "undead" made her feel uncomfortable.

But she could somehow sense the concern from the armored man in front of her through the eyes of the immortal.

Even knowing that he was only asking out of friendship, Frostnova was still slightly shaken.

She still can't get over this hurdle.

It was this man in front of her who killed her adoptive father and shattered everything that was part of their Reunion Movement.

He shattered the false ideals of the Integration Movement, showed her what the sky looked like, and took away all the power that could touch the sky.

Even though Frostnova knows that her past self was wrong, she still cannot face this friend with ease.

She didn't know how she, now alive again, would face the soldier before her.

Her savior, her father's killer.
