"If Ah Xiao of Longmen were here, I wouldn't be in this predicament." Watching the matte black blade approach from afar, Qin Duanyu felt utterly hopeless.

You better wait until I get back to the island and rest up, then I'll bring Brother Xiao back and beat you to a pulp!

when!

A bank security door blocked Qin Duanyu's path, not only deflecting the lord-killer's dagger but also continuing its trajectory toward her. Just as her face was about to make intimate contact with the security door, the lord-killer lightly leaped up, using the force to float away into the distance.

"Doctor, are you alright?" Gummy asked with concern as she forced the enemy back.

"Good job, Gumi! It wasn't a waste of money to buy you a swimsuit when we played the game. We'll arrange it as soon as we get back to the island!" Qin Duanyu breathed a sigh of relief after escaping a disaster and gave the little cook a thumbs up.

On Qingming Festival, we remember our loved ones and mourn our deceased friends; in the sound of mournful songs, we pay tribute to the loyal souls.

May the heroes rest in peace.

The dead are gone, the living are like this.

Section 4, Chapter 4: You Can Always Trust a Kingslayer (1)

Is that hooded guy the one Talulah has been looking for for years?

The regicide, hiding in the shadows, observed Qin Duanyu's actions, a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

I initially thought he was some kind of hero for standing in front of the girl, but it turns out he actually abandoned the Rhodes Island operators and ran away with three Ursus girls.

So it wasn't for any other reason, just because they had an affair. Hmph, then I'll kill them right in front of you. Anyway, Talulah only said she would bring you back alive.

As the four people fled into an old-fashioned residential building, the King Killer curled his lip in disdain and followed them inside, not worried at all about any ambush.

The elite Ursus military and police forces guarding the area have been cleared out. The fate of the civilians is self-evident; if they want help, they can only say they're crazy.

"Quick, push things down to stop her!" The doctor's voice could be faintly heard in the stairwell, followed by wardrobes, desks, and even a bathtub sliding down the stairs.

The constantly rolling debris did nothing to stop the kingslayer, but it did test her already limited patience.

Using Instant Step to dodge another safe, she even began to consider whether to sever Bo's tendons, since Talulah only asked to leave him alive, not that he couldn't be harmed.

In this chase, she gradually cornered her prey in a house on the top floor. Through the violently damaged door, she could clearly see Bo trembling in fear.

"If you surrender now, I can make your suffering less!" The Kingslayer toyed with the short knife in his hand and slowly walked forward.

The three bear girls didn't show themselves, probably hiding somewhere inside the house. Although she was confident she could easily handle this little trouble, she still kept a close watch.

"Gumi, Truth, now!" Qin Duanyu suddenly shouted as he entered the living room.

coming!

The kingslayer moved with light steps, dodging the frying pan that was slammed down on his face.

Has Rhodes Island become so poor that it doesn't even provide weapons to its operators? She cursed inwardly, then sprinted forward, ready to kill the Ursus girl in front of her.

"Freeze!" Another Ursus girl's voice came from beside him, and the Kingslayer was shocked to find his movements slowing down.

During their confrontation downstairs, she could have easily caught the Doctor, but for some reason her speed slowed down, and she was blocked by the girl who used the security door as a shield.

It now appears that the white-haired Ursus girl standing next to Bo is the caster of the spell.

But with just this little bit of cleverness, it's impossible!

The Kingslayer almost burst out laughing. She used Instant Step to dodge the shield's interception and lunged straight at them. Even with her speed slowed down, she could easily subdue the two of them.

One is a doctor who can't even kill a chicken, and the other is a caster operator. What ability do they have to resist an assassin?

But this happiness didn't last long, and it came to an abrupt end when the wardrobe next to him suddenly moved.

One more person!

The Kingslayer realized something was wrong, but it was too late. She had just used Instant Step and couldn't use it again for a while. Winter had just managed to break out at that moment.

"This guy... was he collecting data by throwing things around earlier? He even guessed the gaps and landing points of my Instant Step!" The Kingslayer stared wide-eyed at Bo in disbelief.

Although she possessed ghostly speed, strength was not her forte. Faced with Winter pushing forward with all her might against the cabinet, she had no chance to resist and could only watch helplessly as she flew backward, crashing through the balcony glass and plummeting rapidly under the influence of gravity.

Once upon a time, the Kingslayer took pride in her lithe figure, which was not only her means of survival during her wanderings, but also her reliance as a cadre of the Reunion Movement.

Now, listening to the whistling wind in his ears and seeing the ground gradually becoming clearer, the Kingslayer only regretted that he hadn't eaten enough.

……

A dozen minutes later.

"Doctor, you know the enemy's target is you, yet you still risk your life. This is far too dangerous," Amiya said to Qin Duanyu, hands on her hips, clearly displeased.

When she received the message that she was to temporarily take command of the troops, the clever girl guessed that he would deal with the king killer alone, and lured away the dangerous assassin, which indeed reduced the pressure on him.

But deep down, the girl didn't want Qin Duanyu to take such a big risk, so she deliberately pretended to be fierce, but the result was the opposite, and several agents turned to the side and covered their noses.

"Because I trust my operators and believe you are capable enough to handle the enemy. Besides, you've seriously injured a Reunion cadre, so you don't need to worry about being targeted by assassins anymore, right?" The person in charge didn't seem to care at all, and patted Amiya's head.

Hmm, it feels good.

No cook can't eat pork, no Ash can't kick the king-killing ball? There's no such logic in the world. Real-world operators aren't just programs with only a few skills, so anything is possible!

He deliberately left the main force in order to lure the regicide into a trap.

On flat ground, this guy can escape at any time using the smoke. If he misses an attack, he can immediately flee. If he realizes this and prioritizes attacking the operators, it will definitely cause huge losses.

So Qin Duanyu led the three girls into the building. The cramped environment there severely limited the speed of the King Killer, forcing her to use Instant Step to dodge Gumi. In the end, she was knocked away by Winter due to the skill's cooldown.

The only pity is that the king killer was rescued.

Although the people of Terra are physically strong, and we don't expect her to actually die from the fall, it wouldn't be bad to capture her and use her as a mascot. At least we could form a football team to bond.

"Hehe... No, Doctor must reflect on this behavior. ACE, you say something too!" Amiya first showed a delighted expression, but then her face hardened.

The swift victory on the main battlefield was due to two factors: firstly, the leader, the Kingslayer, was wounded, severely damaging the morale of the Reunion Movement; and secondly, ACE led his team to provide support.

This tough guy, who could go toe-to-toe with Talulah in the story and drag the Doctor and others out of Chernobog, needs no further explanation of his strength. His addition is enough to completely tip the scales of victory.

"As expected of you, Doctor." Under Amiya's intense gaze, ACE could only laugh awkwardly.

On one side was his former boss, and on the other was his current business leader. He couldn't afford to offend either of them. Even a kind and honest man like ACE could only laugh it off.

"Hmm..." Amiya pouted and turned her head away, deciding to ignore them for the time being.

After quickly treating the wounded, the team continued their advance into the lower city.

Dobermann deliberately lagged behind and whispered to ACE, "Why would you condone the doctor's behavior? As a commander, you shouldn't put yourself in danger, neither morally nor logically."

“Because this is the Doctor I know. Even with amnesia, he hasn’t changed.” ACE smiled as he watched the Doctor trying to cheer up the little donkey. “When I first met him, he was playing chess with Dr. Kal’tsit. Strangely enough, he made the first move with his king.”

“It is indeed strange, but this…” Dobermann frowned, not understanding why ACE was talking about something unrelated.

"So Scout and I went to ask him why, and after hearing his explanation, I suddenly felt that following someone like him, even entrusting my life to him, wouldn't be a bad thing."

"I'm all ears."

"If the king doesn't go first, how can his subordinates follow?"

Dobermann's eyes became lost. After repeating the sentence to herself several times, she felt that the thin, hooded figure had unknowingly grown taller. If Bolivar's general had this awareness, why would she have left...

Doberman smiled as he watched the unlucky fellow who tried to tease Amiya with a carrot but ended up getting kicked by her instead.

Section 5, Chapter 5: I'm waiting for my teammates, what are you waiting for?

Two hours after the doctor was awakened, in the central district of Chernobog.

"Ha, Faust, I heard that the Kingslayer got his comeuppance. He was pushed off a building and broke his leg. How embarrassing!" The handsome young man with a cane smoothed his white hair and said gloatingly.

“Mephisto, the enemy is not to be underestimated.” Another boy’s voice came through the earpiece, his hoarse voice sounding steady and reliable.

"Don't worry, we must complete the task assigned by Sister Talulah no matter what." The boy named Mephisto looked at the map, closed his eyes and sensed something. "My pieces will be in place soon. You go and set up the sniping positions."

"Understood," Faust replied, and then remained silent.

"Rhodes Island, I hope you can make me have fun, but don't treat me like some kind of trash!" Mephisto stood up, revealing a sickly bright smile.

His response was met by countless infected individuals, their bodies covered in crystals, who all roared to the sky in unison.

……

On the other side, Qin Duanyu's team was making relatively smooth progress, encountering only sporadic resistance.

According to Amiya, there were actually not many operators who infiltrated Chernobog; only a few squads from Group E. The rest of the groups were on standby on the outskirts. They should have already started fighting the Reunion Movement by now, which has relieved a lot of pressure.

Therefore, the further out you go, the less resistance you encounter.

“According to the planned route, we are already in the central district. We just need to go south through this park to reach the rendezvous point. If all goes well, Lin Guang should be waiting for us with Team E4.” Dobermann said confidently after checking the map to confirm the location.

“Garrison Park, we fought with a club from the neighboring school here a few months ago.” Winter looked nostalgic and gripped the axe in her hand tightly. “Those guys weren’t very good at fighting, they should all be dead by now.”

"We were planning to have a picnic here after the final exams, where everyone could eat some grilled sausages and drink a few glasses of fennel wine..." Gumi said, her face full of sadness and her eyes red.

The beautiful park of my memory is long gone. The trees are burning fiercely in the flames, and the green lawns are scorched and riddled with potholes. The various exquisite sculptures in the center of the park have been blown into countless fragments.

No matter how well they performed in battle, the three bear girls were just ordinary students before this, and it was inevitable that they would feel sad to see their familiar places destroyed.

The group walked silently through the park, gradually approaching the meeting point.

"Oh dear, don't you think it's incredibly impolite for the guests to leave like this?" A young man in white sat on the dilapidated park gate and waved at them.

If it weren't for the Reunion Movement armband he was wearing, and the somewhat dilapidated surroundings, he would really look like an ordinary child welcoming guests.

One of the cadres of the Reunion Movement, a perverted, cunning, and cute young boy.

Preserved mustard greens... Mephistopheles.

"Reunion Movement, what exactly do you want to do!?" Amiya couldn't help but ask after hearing the white-haired boy introduce himself.

Along the way, she witnessed too much killing. The various practices of the Reunion Movement could no longer be described as infected people resisting oppression; they were more like a group of demons enjoying a feast on earth.

"Our business has nothing to do with you guys, right? Actually, Rhodes Island wasn't our target from the beginning," Mephisto waved his hand dismissively.

"Then why..."

“Isn’t it common sense to bring a gift when visiting someone’s home? Come on, guests of Rhodes Island, why don’t you leave this guy to me as a greeting gift? It would be a pity, but I’ll let you go!” Mephisto said, pointing at Qin Duanyu as if he were selecting goods in a supermarket.

Well, this is something that can't be discussed at all.

Fortunately, everyone was aware of this, and while Mephisto was rambling on, they had already taken their positions under Qin Duanyu's command.
