Swordsman Returns from Another World

However, after traveling around the entire Rhodes Island, Baiyou suddenly discovered that there was one less person on the island.

Anso is gone.

………………

In the lower city area of ​​Longmen, in a rather hidden subdivided apartment building.

"Listen to me, you are the older sister, you need to eat more of this, yes, yes, that thing in my bag... that thing is good for girls' development."

"You little brat, I knew you were hungry. Don't worry, I'll buy so much this time so you can eat your fill."

"Have you been to the Laoli Office I told you about? Oh, that's fine."

In the small subdivided apartment, the bed and the table are already filled with all kinds of things, ranging from children's supplements to various easy-to-store foods, as well as new school supplies such as paper and pens.

"Listen to me, I've got you places in those newly built schools in Longmen. Keep this ID card, and you can take them with you when the time comes."

"There are dormitories over there, so you don't have to live here."

While giving instructions, Ansuo shared what she bought with the children in the house.

"Don't keep these foods, eat them when you need to, understand? Me?"

"I eat much better food than this in Rhodes Island! You don't have to worry about me!"

"That bag contains new clothes. Yes, they have the Rhode Island logo printed on them. If you wear these, no one in the downtown area will dare to bully you. Don't worry!"

In the small subdivided apartment, several children were jumping up and down. Sometimes they climbed the ladder to the upper bunk with clothes in their arms and changed happily. Sometimes they jumped off the bed and shared the food brought by Ansuo with their friends.

These children were the ones that Anso had tried his best to help in the Lower City. After serving in Rhodes Island, Anso would still come to help them.

This time, An Suo was finally relieved. As long as they waited until the New Year, when the newly built schools officially started recruiting students, these children could go to live in the school dormitory instead of having to stay in the lower city.

She knew very well that Rhodes Island was not a charity, and she also understood that she did not have the ability to help all the homeless children in the downtown area. Therefore, she could only protect these companions who had followed her the longest.

Just as Anso took out a skirt and was about to ask a little Zarak girl next to him to change into it, he heard the terminal on his waist beeping.

Ansuo's heart sank. She had escaped secretly, and according to the rules, people were not allowed to enter or leave Rhodes Island at this time.

Instructor Doberman must be trying to arrest me...

She picked up the terminal reluctantly and answered the call.

Baiyou's face appeared on the terminal. He seemed to be visiting the special forces department at the moment. Yaxin and others could be seen in the background.

Yaxin in the background waved at her shyly. It seemed that she tried to cover for Ansuo, but failed.

Baiyou had a frown on his face at first, but after seeing clearly where the dark rope was, he was stunned for a moment and then heaved a sigh of relief.

Ansuo's little face was surrounded by the curious children coming over from all directions. He forced out an awkward smile: "Bo, Doctor... Hehe..."

"Oh, I thought you had run out to cause trouble again. I'm glad you're okay." Baiyou smiled as she looked at Ansuo who was wrapped in a group of children.

"I've asked ACE to pick you up by car. Come back with me later. Oh, and bring the kids with you."

An Suo was stunned when she heard this, but before she could speak, Bai Yu continued, "They are wearing Rhodes Island uniforms, so they are from Rhodes Island. They are coming to Rhodes Island to celebrate the New Year, that's all."

"After the New Year, I will advance your salary and send them to the Rhode Island Office in Longmen to find adoption or sponsorship for their schooling. You have no right to refuse."

An Suo's eyes lit up and he froze in place.

Baiyue added: "Rhodes Island is not a charity, but we will still help the operators with their personal matters if we can."

"That's it. I'll let him go first. I still have to play cards with Cliffheart Scorpion and the others."

The call was disconnected instantly, but An Suo felt as if his heart was floating. He was so happy that he didn't know what to do. He sat in the only chair in the room, unable to speak.

"Sister Ansuo, who was that handsome guy with white hair just now?" the Zarak girl next to her asked curiously.

"Yes... um..." An Suo came back to his senses, thought for a moment, and smiled: "It's my boyfriend!"

When the children heard this, they all exclaimed in surprise.

Then, there was a burst of chirping noise, and Anso was surrounded by children, smiling foolishly.

Chapter 385: Wendigo sets out on his journey again

While Rhodes Island and Lungmen were enjoying the joyous atmosphere of the New Year, the border city of Ursus far to the north was experiencing turmoil.

A turmoil that has been building for a long time.

Ursus, the border city of Aleksey.

This was the city that originally bordered Chernobyl. Because of the outbreak of the Chernobyl incident, Alexei was brewing turmoil. This turmoil came from the new and old nobles, and also from... people.

Any ill will between people will ferment into chaos.

Anastasia was walking through the streets. Today was New Year's Day for Dayan, but it was not a big deal for Ursus.

In the past few days, Anastasia, who successfully entered Ursus, has used her own ability to deliver Rhodes Island's new medicine to Rhodes Island supporters in Ursus. Afterwards, Anastasia, who regained her freedom, came to Alexei, because... this is her hometown.

But my hometown is in dire straits.

She stood at the end of the street and looked into the distance. Thick black smoke rose from many corners of the city, accompanied by flames rising into the sky.

The military and police were wandering around the streets in panic. They were rushing to organize a defense line, but they were completely unable to stop the chaotic crowd on the street.

They were civilians, even some of Ursus's soldiers, and nobles.

No one knew where so many people came from. People in various clothes pushed each other and gathered on the street, arguing with each other, and the arguments quickly turned into shoving matches.

Then there were fights, riots, and chaos.

Ursus has reaped the benefits of war for so many years, and has used the benefits to suppress numerous internal disturbances. Now, with the exposure of the Chernobyl incident, it can finally no longer suppress the unrest.

Among the chaotic crowd on the street, some people stood out.

They were a group of tall warriors with deer antlers. Each of them had bright eyes. There were both men and women. Some of them had complete deer heads, while others only had features such as deer antlers and deer ears.

They walked through the crowd, pushing them aside with the heavy and huge weapons in their hands. Even the military and police could not stop them.

The directions given by the military and police were of no use to them; they just moved forward and could not be stopped.

That was exactly who Anastasia was waiting for.

The men approached the alley where Anastasia was. The leader, a tall man with antlers, nodded slightly at Anastasia, put the huge sword in his hand, which was as big as a door panel, on his shoulder, and said, "Miss Anastasia, I'm sorry to have waited for a long time."

"Not too long, but you guys made quite a noise." Anastasia waved without further ado, "Let's not talk about that anymore, follow me."

She led this group of tall weirdos through the dark alleys, and finally came to a staircase leading to the underground of a building. They walked down one by one, bent down, and followed Anastasia into a deep underground corridor.

"Here we are... That's where I left Ursus. I was only thirteen years old that year."

Anastasia struck a match and lit an oil lamp hanging on the wall.

This wall is covered with oil lamps, but most of them are broken.

“For every person who successfully escapes, there will be one more lamp here, and…for every person who escapes from here and dies, we will break the lamp.”

Anastasia said, handing the oil lamp in her hand to the antler-headed man: "Here, the rest of the journey is up to you."

The man with deer horns took the lamp solemnly, then raised his hand slightly to illuminate the corridor in front of him and the wall hung with broken lights.

"...Are these all traces left by those who once desperately fled from Ursus?" he asked in a muffled voice.

"Yes, that's right." Anastasia lowered her head and took out a new lamp from the box next to her, hung it on the wall, and then said, "How many of you are there in total? I need to see if the lamps are enough... Oh, and I have to engrave your names on them."

"One is enough." The antler man whispered.

Anastasia was stunned, then she raised her head and looked at the group of people in front of her.

Some of these people were wearing military uniforms, while others were in rags. They seemed to come from completely different classes of society, and they wore clothes that covered all classes of Ursus.

However, it seems that their temperaments are exactly the same. Each of them has a pair of scarlet eyes and a strong and tall body. The calm fighting spirit in those scarlet eyes is as inviolable as a towering snow-capped mountain.

They just stood there, standing in front of Anastasia, blocking the entire corridor, like walls piled up in front of Anastasia.

It exudes an unconcealable sense of oppression and viciousness.

"Just leave a name."

"Vendigo."

Anastasia's hand trembled, and the brand new oil lamp in her hand suddenly fell to the ground and shattered.

The sound of shattering glass was so clear and crisp that it became harsh after echoing in the corridor.

"Wendigo... You, you are not Caprini, you are Wendigo..." Anastasia looked at the people in front of her in shock: "Half-blood Wendigo!"

The antler-bearing man in the lead nodded, "That's right, Miss Anastasia."

Anastasia took out an oil lamp from the box with shaking hands, then took out her dagger.

Before carving the words on the oil lamp, she suddenly asked: "Why did you leave Ursus?"

"For my hometown." The antler man sighed, "Just like you, Ms. Anastasia, will return to your hometown after sneaking back to Ursus."

"We have received a calling. Our homeland is calling us. Our king... needs us, his people."

"Hundreds of years of wandering for the Wendigo have come to an end. We are about to set off and return to our homeland."

The man with deer horns held up the oil lamp in his hand. The flame in the lamp trembled slightly, illuminating his face dimly, revealing solemnity and loyalty.

"...Can you tell me where you are going?" Anastasia swallowed her saliva: "No, it's okay if it's inconvenient to say..."

"We are going to the king." The antler man did not hide anything. He trusted Anastasia: "The king who has his people will return to the land promised by Kazdel and wear the crown, surrounded by his people."

"So...we're going to Longmen."

Anastasia didn't have the courage to ask any more questions. She silently made way and watched these tall monsters, who looked as devout as pilgrims, walk past her one after another.

Someone among them seemed to be humming a deep tune, which echoed in the corridor along with the sound of footsteps.

Pairs of scarlet eyes followed the guidance of the dim light and moved forward, as if by following the tiny and weak flame, they could see the sun rising.

Hundreds of years later, the Wendigo set out on his journey again.

This time, it’s not about wandering after giving up the championship.

But to offer loyalty and ferocity to the one who wears the crown.

Return to the long-lost homeland.

Chapter 386: Caught by Texas

Baiyue did not receive any news about Wendigo's expedition.

Because, at this moment, he was playing hide-and-seek with... many people in Rhodes Island.

The reason for playing hide-and-seek is simple. On this important day, there is more than one person eyeing him.

For many people, spending the holidays with the people they love is extremely important.

At this time, he was hiding in a small locker in the engineering department, covering his mouth tightly with his hands, looking outside through the ventilation window of the locker.

Outside the door, Lin Guang was wearing a plain white dress and walking past the engineering department with the firm and heroic steps of a knight.

In the engineering department, Doberman was chatting with Klushier.

"Klushier, you have the highest authority for surveillance. Can't you see where the doctor is hiding?" Doberman asked sternly.

"The doctor's authority is higher than mine. If he doesn't want me to see the surveillance footage, then even I can't retrieve all of it."

Kelucil shrugged innocently and spread her hands, saying, "I didn't do anything tricky. Don't stare at me like that."

"I don't have the idea of ​​monopolizing him at all. I'm physically weak and can't handle him."

Doberman looked at Klushier suspiciously, then said, "That's better... If you find him later, remember to send me a message."

Klushier raised her hand and shook her fingers slightly, indicating that she understood.

Doberman turned and left in a hurry, apparently not wanting to be left behind.

Urgent! Urgent!

After making sure Doberman had left, Baiyou kicked open the locker door and jumped out.

Hearing the noise, Kulusier turned around and looked at her in surprise - even she didn't know where Baiyou had hidden.

She was about to say something, but Baiyou raised her hand and pointed at her, saying, "Stop, don't talk, don't send a message to Dubin, keep it a secret or you will be retaliated by me, understand?"

Kelucier's eyes lit up: "Revenge? How?"

Baiyou knew what she was thinking, so how could he let her have her way? So he said, "I will tie you up and hang you in the warehouse all night, and make you watch me do it with someone else."
