Talulah, I'm still a child.

Some recognized the threat posed by the Reunion Movement and attempted to destroy it before it grew too powerful. However, they soon discovered that this was no longer an option. The Reunion Movement had its roots spread across most of Ursus and even had its own set of operating methods in terms of public opinion, so it was not afraid of being smeared by Ursus.

Of course, many people simply didn't take the Reunion Movement seriously, thinking that a small infected organization couldn't possibly cause any trouble. There have been countless people who have resisted Ursus over the millennia; how could the Reunion Movement possibly defy the heavens?

"You've had a tough time, Alina. There's no other way. Compared to physical training, many people come to Integration simply because they can't survive. They don't yet understand what we're going to do in the future. Only those who truly understand, agree with, and are willing to join us are our partners."

The Reunion Movement expanded rapidly because so many people were driven to the brink of starvation by Ursus, including not only the infected but also ordinary villagers. Even a small militia had to be so subservient to them.

“During this time, people from different races across Terra, including the Sarkaz, Sakota, Felin, or Liboli, Victoria, Litania, and Casimir, and even Bolivar and Iberia, have chosen to become our partners. Talulah, are you prepared to lead everyone to a new world?”

"You've made it so formal that I feel embarrassed."

When Alina asked her question, Talulah just smiled. She had never thought she could do something so great. Initially, she chose this path out of her conscience and her defiance of Koschei. But as time went on, she realized that walking this path might be the best choice she had ever made.

“I’m not that good, Alina. I didn’t even know the right time and techniques for farming until last month. Mr. Patriot is already used to inviting General Helag to work in the fields.”

“You say you will lead, because I have lit the fire. I will carry the torch and walk in front, because you are behind me. Otherwise, I would surely be blown away by the wind and snow.”

“It is you who support me to keep going. We are not going to move towards a new world, but to build a new world.”

Talulah has always been eloquent, and what she said came from the bottom of her heart. In fact, she has never been interested in managing others. Compared to that, she would rather retire in the future, marry Mei Xue, and settle down in a beautiful place with the little fox, or take a long trip.

"That's great, I'll say that next time I give a speech."

"Don't make fun of me. Compared to those, how are our talent reserves?"

Talent is Talulah's biggest concern right now. Although the Reunion Movement has a large number of members, they are mostly civilians. Educating them is undoubtedly a time-consuming and laborious task. Moreover, the Reunion Movement controls the city of Chernobog, which has various factories and no shortage of raw materials. As long as they have the corresponding technical personnel, it will be a great help.

"It's much better than I expected!"

Alina seemed quite excited when she said this, which was rare for her, and it was clear that the situation was indeed better than expected.

"There are many skilled teachers and workers. Many of the former are ordinary people who voluntarily joined us after witnessing various changes, while the latter are mostly unfortunate people who were infected while working. Many of them even brought their families with them. Fortunately, Rhodes Island provided enough medicine."

"Because Mei Xue has been helping all along..."

Talulah couldn't help but sigh. Last time, the little fox simply copied Rhodes Island's Oripathy medicine and filled all the empty warehouses in Chernobog. There would be no shortage of supplies for a long time. In addition, mudstone was often transported back from Rhodes Island, so everything was still in a state of ease.

"However, we can't stay in this state forever. Rhodes Island is about to leave Ursus, and Ursus will inevitably be more targeted in its actions against us in the future. We need to be able to produce our own drugs."

If there is any problem troubling the Reunion Movement, it is undoubtedly Oripathy. Since most members are infected, even though each person only needs to inject an inhibitor once a month under normal circumstances, the consumption is still enormous. The Reunion Movement currently has nearly 300,000 members, of whom 50,000 are infected.

“We have all the relevant information, but the raw materials are indeed a bit of a problem. We should be able to keep going by relying on the few companies we have on the surface.”

"Then let's stockpile supplies first. How about food? The meteorologist said that Ursus will have an early snowfall this year."

"Arrangements have already been made. In addition, Ino hopes to expand the scope of the medical department and recommends the new Ms. Lilia as the head of the medical department."

Is it believable?

"She is Kal'tsit's student, and according to her, she also has a relationship with Mei Xue, which is why she chose to join us."

Having connections with Mei Xue and being Kal'tsit's student, Lilia is basically a trustworthy person, like Crete and Arturo. However, what puzzles Alina the most is that Lilia's relationship with Mei Xue seems to be more than just ordinary.

At least when Mei Xue was mentioned, his eyes were full of doting and another kind of... well, even Alina herself couldn't believe this deduction. After all, Lilia said that she was married and had a daughter, and her husband was also killed by Ursus's conspiracy. At that time, she once wanted revenge.

But how did she become like this?

Lilia herself couldn't answer this question, as it was a confidential matter that Dr. Ma had mentioned. All she knew was that her mission was to help the Reunion Movement establish a comprehensive medical system.

"Remember to rest when you get back. Put the recent training on hold for now. Don't be in such a hurry. It takes a long time for the reserve team to become a regular force."

"Thank you, Ms. Lilia."

Watching another patient leave, Lilia yawned wearily. She could now somewhat understand Kal'tsit's hard work. She was busy all day long, working overtime without rest. She wondered how Kal'tsit could maintain such a schedule and not age prematurely. No, after all, would Kal'tsit even get old?

Lilia suddenly wondered whether Meixue would grow up first or Kal'tsit would grow old first.

"But I'm definitely getting old first... Sigh, I have more wrinkles and my hair has turned quite a bit white."

Lilia took out a mirror and looked at her face. She could really feel that she had aged a lot. In that case, Meixue would have to call her "Auntie" instead of "Sister" when she saw her in the future. It's true that there are advantages to being young.

"I wonder if Louisa has gotten along well with Mei Xue. It would be best if she could bring him back."

Although doing this might anger Kal'tsit, there was no other way. If it weren't for the fact that she was already middle-aged, Lilia wouldn't mind going herself. But after all, she was a married woman, and Meixue treated her more like an older sister. So she had no choice but to let her daughter join the battle. Anyway, Louisa had a good relationship with Meixue since childhood.

Looking back now, if it weren't for the timely appearance of the Doctor and Mei Xue, she might have already died under the blade of the Ursus Guard. At that time, all she could think about was revenge... It really was, she almost caused her daughter to lose her mother again.

Actually, Lilia had considered remarrying, but Mei Xue was being watched too closely by the Doctor at that time, and she had just emerged from her psychological trauma. By the time she realized what was happening, she had only caught Mei Xue alone two or three times, and on one of those occasions, her daughter had accidentally seen her.

"Louisa, my darling daughter, you have to do your best! Mommy will be cheering you on!"

On Rhodes Island, Aya sneezed as if by telepathy, raising her eyebrows as she looked at the photo in her hand. It was a picture of her and Meixue when she was a child, without Amiya, because she was raised by her mother alone back then, and even met Kal'tsit.

The little fox in the photo is exactly the same as it is now, except that the number of tails is different. At that time, he came with his mother. Ya Ye thought he was an illegitimate child, but later she realized that he was either her stepfather or her biological mother's son-in-law.

All I can say is that adults' romantic relationships are really messy.JPG

But to be honest, although she had a good relationship with Meixue since childhood, Aya never had those kinds of feelings for Meixue. It's normal for her to want to cuddle with the little fox, hug her tail, and nibble on her ears. Well, she definitely didn't want to be like her mother.

"What are you thinking about, Louisa?"

"Ah, no, it's nothing... By the way, Kal'tsit-sensei, what are we going to Laterano for?"

The sudden alarm almost made Rhodes Island think that the Ursus army had attacked, but it turned out that they were sending people to Laterano. Not only Aya, but the rest of the people were also very curious about what this emergency mission was.

"Something might have happened to Mei Xue."

As Kal'tsit finished speaking, the surroundings fell into a deathly silence. Then, a white bolt of lightning exploded, and Lin Qingyan's beautiful long golden hair burst open. Behind her, Ling He Nian also frowned deeply.

"Why won't you let me go?"

Skadi raised her eyebrows in displeasure. Not that she was saying anything, but if she and Specter teamed up, they could easily destroy most of Laterano.

"If I bring you along, you'll be overweight."

Kal'tsit pointed to the Bad Guy aircraft not far away. There were quite a few people to be sent out this time. Considering Skadi's tonnage, it was indeed a bit... well, that's just a joke. The main reason was that the ship needed sufficient defensive capabilities.

Furthermore, another unnamed deep-sea hunter captain will also be going along.

Chapter 240 Mei Xue's Daily Lottery Wins

Mei Xue, who was in Laterano, was unaware that Rhodes Island was in chaos because of her (specifically referring to Xiao Ke's hunger). She was simply out shopping with the Remian sisters, Mostima, and Fiametta.

"Big sister, give me a bottle of soda!"

"Ok."

Looking at Mei Xue in front of him, the shop owner turned around, took out a bottle of concentrated apple juice and handed it to her. The little fox swayed its tail, put the money on the table, took the juice, twisted it open, looked at the "buy one get one free" sign on the cap, glanced at the older ladies at the door, twitched its fox ears and handed the cap over.

"Big sister, can we change this to something else? My sister prefers black tea."

"Oh, little friend, you're so lucky! Of course you can!"

The shop owner gave Mei Xue another bottle of black tea, but unexpectedly, the little fox opened it in front of her and then handed the cap back without even looking at it.

"Another bottle, please."

"what?"

"It will definitely be written on it."

After taking the bottle cap and glancing at it, the shop owner suddenly realized something was wrong and had a bad feeling, but he still gave Mei Xue another bottle.

Then, the little fox repeated what it had just done.

"Another bottle, please."

"...Are you here to buy some goods, little friend?"

The proprietress, who was completely speechless, was about to get another bottle, but because of what had just happened, she hesitated for a moment and gave Mei Xue another bottle of herbal tea instead.

He took Mei Xue's hand and twisted it open right in front of her.

"We still need two more bottles."

Watching the little fox count on his fingers, the boss vowed never to sell this kind of loss-making stuff that promised a free bottle again. To be honest, there wasn't even a single bottle out of a hundred that would win, but this little fox had won four in a row, and it seemed like he still wasn't satisfied.

Actually, Mei Xue's tail has all kinds of fruit juice and drinks, but the little fox thinks it's best to drink frozen ones in this weather. His tail only has a whole warehouse of hot milk, and there are four people waiting for him outside.

"Pick whatever you want."

The proprietress said she was exhausted. "Destroy it all! This world is devoid of love. One or two bottles are fine, but God, this unreasonable little guy in front of me has already opened four."

"what……"

"Don't tell me it's 'buy one get one free' again!"

Mei Xue's reaction even made the shop owner suspect that he wanted to empty her store, but this time the little fox shook his head.

"No more bottles available."

"That's good."

"But what's this 7-day tour of Dosoles? Big sister, why did you faint, big sister!?"

Seeing the landlady faint on the ground, the little fox couldn't help but panic. Fortunately, she only experienced a momentary blackout, so she wasn't going to die.

"Nothing... I just suddenly feel like I'm a piece of trash."

The shop owner felt incredibly bitter when he recalled how he had drunk three cases of soda without winning a prize, only to have it taken by Mei Xue.

Seeing that she was indeed alright, Mei Xue nodded and walked out with a bunch of sodas. Remian and Fiametta, who witnessed everything at the door, finally realized why Mostima had asked Mei Xue to go buy things.

"You didn't know Mei Xue could win this prize, did you?"

Fiameta pointed to the billboard at the store entrance used to attract customers, which read "Open the lid for a prize, the grand prize is the seven-day trip that Mei Xue just won."

"This kind of thing is a piece of cake for Mei Xue."

Exusiai, who had just received the soda, patted Mei Xue on the head. This kind of thing was very common for the girls at Penguin Logistics. Anyway, as long as it was something related to luck, taking Mei Xue along was always the right thing to do.

"...Although I've heard that white foxes symbolize good fortune in the Great Yan Dynasty, isn't that a bit too mystical?"

Remyn covered her mouth involuntarily. She wanted to say it was unscientific, but when she thought about her leg, which was gradually recovering, she suddenly remembered that Mei Xue seemed to be quite illogical to begin with.

"Well, after all, Mei Xue was originally the mascot of the Great Yan Dynasty."

Mostima reached out and tugged at Mei Xue's tail. You see, the little fox wasn't so lucky because she became the mascot of Da Yan, but because she could manipulate luck herself. Even outside of Da Yan, the little fox was the luckiest of the lucky.

This explanation made Fiameta's eyebrows twitch. She wondered why the Pope had assigned them to protect Mei Xue. This little fox actually had such an identity.

"So he's still on Rhodes Island, not returning to Great Yan?"

"It's impossible for the Great Yan to restrict Mei Xue's personal freedom, but they hope he can go back for the New Year. Oh, by the way, I want to go with him then, is that alright, Mei Xue?"

Mostima looked at the little fox silently drinking her juice, and the latter nodded in agreement. It wasn't a big deal. Anyway, they had already said that Mei Xue could bring the whole of Rhodes Island over for the New Year without any problem. Moreover, because of the little fox's existence, all the countries of Terra now tacitly acknowledged that Great Yan was standing behind Rhodes Island.
