Ark, after I died, the operators began to love me

The sharp corner of the card pierced into Mike's clothes and got stuck in the middle of his clothes. If Ragna activated the Originium skill, the thunder would instantly engulf this person.

Originally, she thought she could be ruthless and heartless to the Collapse, but looking at this face that was both familiar and unfamiliar, Ragna couldn't help but tremble with her voice. Reason told her that she should activate the Originium skill, but she couldn't make up her mind no matter what.

64. Cruel Fate

Mike knew what Ragna was thinking just by looking at her tangled expression, and quickly stretched out his hand to stop her, saying, "Wait a minute, I'm standing right in front of you, you can tell if it's true or not by trying it yourself."

Although he was not afraid of Ragna's Originium skills, it was too embarrassing to be electrocuted and charred in front of so many people.

Ragna was even more shocked. The tone of voice, appearance and expression of this man were exactly the same as that man. If it was really a collapsed body impersonating him, it was too similar.

The fortune teller was soft-hearted for a moment, but he also knew the priorities of the matter, and subconsciously activated his Originium skills.

Everything in front of her was her fantasy. The Doctor was already dead. How could he still be standing in front of her and saying these words?

Seeing that the situation was not good, Mike took off his coat almost at the same time and threw it into the air, letting the tarot card fly away with it.

The next second, the lightning and power stone skills broke out, and the air was instantly filled with lightning and thunder, and then exploded into a ball with crackling sounds.

Mike, who was standing right below, had already knocked down Ragna who was close at hand, and the two of them barely avoided the power of thunder.

After falling to the ground in the snow, Mike stood up, stared into Ragna's eyes, and said seriously, "Now that things have come to this, shouldn't you believe that I'm real?"

Ragna also realized the seriousness of the problem. She widened her eyes and said in disbelief, "How is it possible? I clearly saw you with my own eyes..."

She stopped halfway through her words. She had previously speculated about a possibility and thought it was just her fantasy, but she never expected it would become reality one day.

The doctor did not really die. He faked his death and left Rhodes Island to carry out a secret work that was completely different from before.

But what kind of secret operation requires deceiving so many people and giving up everything in order to conceal the truth?

Ragna couldn't understand, and didn't want to understand. Since the Doctor was real, that meant...

"It was Elki who told me everything about you. You should have met her."

Mike's words cleared up some of Ragna's doubts. She pulled the man up, and when she let go of his hand, she found that he was holding her tightly and refused to let go.

At this moment, Mike discovered that Ragna was not seriously polluted, or rather, the evil spirit did not have time to pollute her.

"The people you brought in are at risk, and I don't yet know the scale of the contamination."

Ragna looked at Mike deeply and said briefly: "I had such a hunch, but I didn't find any evidence. Maybe my cognition was distorted."

"That's easy."

Mike lowered his head and whispered something in Ragna's ear, who stared at him with a look that said, "Are you crazy?"

"Don't worry, I may be a little crazy, but I'm not ready to die."

No madman wants to admit that he is sick.

It was clearly the feeling of regaining something that had been lost, but after hearing Mike's crazy words, Ragna just wanted to punch him to wake him up.

From the look in the man's eyes, it looked like he wasn't joking.

All the trust she had in the man in the past regained the upper hand, and a voice in her heart silently told Ragna that perhaps she should believe him.

The fortune teller grabbed Mike's collar tightly and said in a low voice: "I am willing to believe you because of your promise to me before. If you lie to me again, I will send you to the River Styx with my own hands!"

This warning is very severe for the Sami people.

The River Styx is of great significance to the Sami people, symbolizing the cycle of life and death. Ragna used the River Styx to warn Michael, which shows how much she values ​​it.

Mike swallowed hard, knowing that things would not be so easily resolved. Although he had evoked Ragna's memories in some ways and made her believe in him, this was only a temporary solution.

The way he left Rhodes Island was too extreme. Many operators thought he was dead and were heartbroken. But now he appears in front of them alive again, proving that his death was just a scam.

The operators who felt deeply deceived would naturally not look at him well. Ragna's not punching him just now was already a sign of mercy.

Ask yourself, if it was Mike himself standing here, taking on Ragna's perspective, poking a few transparent holes would be considered a consideration for past face.

The man finally convinced himself and responded: "Of course no problem, I will explain to you everything I have experienced. Some things cannot be expressed clearly through simple explanations."

……

the other side.

Holhaiya found that the Doctor and Ragna did not continue to fight. They stood up from the ground and then separated. Everything seemed calm, as if the battle just now had not happened.

Froststar put away his Originium skills, turned around and asked, "Has Mike convinced that crazy woman?"

Without even turning his head, Holhaiya said: "It seems so. It's not easy to convince a crazy guy."

"Are you trying to say that this guy paid a heavy price? I don't believe it. Is there anyone here who is willing to believe it?"

Feathered Serpent listened to Froststar's accusation and thought to himself that this girl was so sour. There was a strong sense of dissatisfaction in her tone. Could she also be the prey of that man?

Although he thought about it, Quetzalcoatl did not say these words out loud. Sometimes face is more important than anything else, and words left unspoken can actually have the best effect.

Andorn also closed the field. He didn't care about the current situation at all. He praised happily: "As expected of a doctor, you solved a problem easily."

Holhaiya silently labeled Mike in his heart.

A philandering guy, or rather, his previous caution and the conflicts between people concealed the truest side of this man. Now that no one can stop him, the darkest side of his heart is finally revealed.

But what does it matter? Holhaiya never cared about this. If she were forced to say something that she must care about, it would be to complete the continuation of the Quetzalcoatl race.

Quetzalcoatl is already quite old. In her extremely short life, apart from spending some time studying, completing agent missions and traveling on the road, she believes that she should have a wonderful experience in the few remaining times.

Those who know say that the Quetzalcoatl race is immortal, but who knows that it is the Quetzalcoatl race and concept that will last forever, while she as an individual will completely disappear with the end of this life.

Holhaiya thought silently in her heart that being able to meet Mike again in the last little time of her life might be fate's gift to her, and all her previous hard work and efforts became meaningful.

Although Mike didn't know what this crazy woman was thinking, when he returned to the team, he saw Quetzalcoatl's eyes were full of aggression. Even if he was slow and didn't understand what was happening, he would pay extra attention tonight, maybe Holhaiya would crawl to his side.

"The trouble is solved, temporarily."

Andorn took a look and saw that the fortune teller had disappeared at the end of the snowfield. No one knew where she went because she did not return to the team. The many people she brought with her stayed where they were, waiting for the next instruction.

The days on the ice field are very short and the nights are very long, and the temperature difference is quite large. A team of more than a hundred people cannot stay there for long. The base camp in front of them is the only place for them to go if they want to survive.

Mike thought about this and said to everyone, "The review we arranged before is still going on. There will be no delays or special requirements."

After the previous two battles, except for Mike's team members, everyone else was thinking that they might be sacrificed at any time.

After all, the opponent was ruthless when performing Originium skills. Even if the thunderstorm did not cause any casualties, it would cause certain damage to other people present.

Typhon was a little incredulous and asked, "Is the matter resolved just like that?"

The Sarkaz girl originally thought that there would be another fierce fight. Sister Ragna had a very stubborn temper and was not so easily persuaded.

Before Mike came back, the girl had already made preparations in her heart to save Ragna's life at all costs. It was true that she was contaminated, but she did not turn into a collapsed body. This was excellent news.

Not being a collapsing body means there is a possibility of dispersing the pollution.

Typhon had seen too many tragedies on this ice field, especially when the expedition teams crossed the Great Wall and headed towards the deeper north. Most of the time, the various troubles they encountered on the road would threaten their lives.

In the eyes of the Sami people, the Colombians, who were quite smart, made stupid mistakes again and again at critical moments. They put their own lives at risk and rushed towards the Far North one after another.

Since the base camp is close to Casimir, the caravans coming from the south also brought back outdated newspapers from the Kingdom of Knights and a large number of knight novels.

Ignoring those knight romance novels that are all about love, what moved Typhon the most was the last knight who charged towards the waves again and again.

And these Colombians seem to all have this unswerving spirit.

Before they are ready to take the risk, they will fill in the money and insurance beneficiaries as the people they trust the most, and then move forward with the determination to die.

Unfortunately, Mike's behavior reminded Typhon of the last knight. He led a team across the Northern Wall to find the source of the chaos that had plagued this land for many years.

The evil demon of Kitahara.

However, Mike didn't know the turmoil in Typhon's heart. When he walked up to the Sarkaz girl, he whispered to her, "You can see Elki if you return to my office now."

Typhon was surprised.

what?

Elki?

Wasn't Elki in the frozen mountains of the Sami Glacier? How did he get here?

Typhon couldn't believe her ears, but she knew that what came out of this man's mouth was most likely true.

The little girl couldn't wait to go back, and just when she was about to leave, she heard a low groan from a man.

"Ms. Typhon, we are still on a mission. Even if you have family members visiting, you should wait until the mission is completed before returning."

Typhon blushed immediately after coming to her senses. She had even forgotten that she was on a mission.

Mike thought about it and decided that Director An was more reliable, but he was also glared at by Director An.

At such a critical moment, he actually said words that could shake the morale of the troops.

Director An looked at Mike with a look of disappointment on his face.

How could he not understand what this man meant?

It was obvious that he wanted to make fun of Typhon. After all, Typhon had not been nice to Mike before.

So this guy found an opportunity to retaliate.

If Mike heard Andon's inner voice, he would only say that Andon's idea was inferior. If he really wanted to take revenge on Typhon, the easiest way would be to find ways to establish a good relationship with Elki and turn himself from Typhon's boss to Typhon's godfather.

However, this idea only crossed Mike's mind for a moment, because he was worried that if the plot really developed in this way, it would probably end up with Typhon using a giant bow to shoot two transparent holes in Mike.

Some not-so-nice things are better off not happening.

Besides, the crisis has not yet been truly resolved.

……

Ragna, worried, returned to her warriors.

If before, she had always seen certain things as blurry, but now with the blessing of Mike's power, the scene in front of her suddenly became real, and the curtain that blocked her vision was also lifted.

It turned out that more than half of the more than 200 warriors she brought were grotesque monsters. They had no faces, and their facial features were like glowing stars, flashing strange light from time to time.

Even though they had no mouths and could not speak any language, the meanings they were able to express appeared directly in Ragna's mind.

"I can actually understand what the Collapser said. No wonder the doctor said I was also contaminated."

Ragna remembered what Mike had told her, and combined with some of her strange experiences, she completely agreed with what Mike told her.

The evil demon was so terrifying that it could actually manipulate her cognition and, when an accident occurred at the base camp, summon another team of collapsed bodies to invade.

If Mike hadn't sent people to block them at the city gate, they might have gone straight into the base camp and caused secondary damage to the survivors inside.

As a fortune teller, Ragna was well aware of the fate of being contaminated by evil spirits. She suppressed the grief in her heart and pretended to be calm and indifferent on the surface.

Some of the human warriors who came with her have been transformed into collapsed bodies.

While she was daydreaming, she heard a voice calling her, "Ragna, you went to the gate of the base camp. What's the situation there?"

The voice that Ragna realized came from Xue Si, with whom she had a very good relationship. It was Xue Si's company along the way that made her feel a little more relaxed.

But just as she was about to turn around, she suddenly realized a problem. She didn't hear anyone talking. The sound acted directly in her mind, which meant...

Ragna did not dare to look back. She did not dare to look, nor did she dare to face her own heart.

Fate is so cruel.

The fortune teller took a deep breath of the cold air, and clenched the tarot cards containing power in his hands hidden in his sleeves.

65. Ragna, I am your hero

Ragna gritted her teeth and refused to respond even though she heard someone calling her from behind.

Her friend turned into a collapsed body, and all the experiences she had along the way turned into horror stories that only appear in novels.

At this moment, Ragna, who felt the pain, finally understood Simone's despair.

But Simona had crossed the Northern Wall with the Sami hero's expedition team more than ten days ago and headed towards the birthplace of evil.

"Ragna, what's wrong with you? Are things not going well?"

The faceless Snow Priest took a few steps closer.

Ragna, whose cognition was no longer distorted, felt a deep chill. She moved her shoulders and whispered, "Not bad."

Something seemed to fall from her hand to the ground, and then a figure emerged from the shadow behind the fortune teller.

The moment the puppet appeared, he saw the collapsed body a few meters away. He immediately waved his hand and scattered a series of talismans.

In an instant, a beam of golden light shot up into the sky, turning the cloudy weather into a bright sunny day.
