That's the Patriot, Bozhucasti, the last pure-blooded Wendigo in the world. He was once one of Ursus's trump cards and has one of the oldest bloodlines in all of Kazdel.

They are the living fossils of this land and are powerful beings at the racial level.

Frost Star led Baiyou to a tall black iron gate, in front of which stood two guerrilla shield guards wearing heavy armor.

"...Miss Shuangxing, why are you here?" One of the shield guards nodded and looked at Shuangxing: "Are you here to see the Patriot?"

Froststar raised her head, looked at the shield guard, and smiled, "Yes."

Seeing Froststar's relaxed smile, the shield guard was a little overwhelmed. He turned his head to look at his companions, then lowered his head to look at Froststar, and then suddenly let out a long breath, his shoulders slumped, and said: "It's been a long time since I saw you smile so easily. It seems that you are finally planning to reconcile with Big Daddy?"

Reconciliation... Yes, ever since the Integration Movement decided to leave the tundra, Frost Star has always had conflicts with the Patriots, just like a rebellious girl who has grown up and has her own ideas, while her calm old father only wants to protect her.

Hearing this question, Shuang Xing smiled and lowered his head, saying: "Maybe, but I have to meet him to know what to say."

"Who is this?" The shield guard looked at Bai You, who was disguised in the white robe of the Integration Movement.

"My companion."

The shield guard did not suspect anything and turned around and pushed open the heavy iron door behind him.

White Glaze and Frost Star finally entered the territory of the Patriots.

Most of the people in the Patriot's territory are members of the troops who have followed him since the Ursus period. These people have strict military discipline and still abide by the rules of the army until now. Therefore, whether in terms of combat effectiveness or unity, they can be regarded as the best in the integration movement.

The streets are spotless, and the residential areas for ordinary infected people and members of the Integration Movement are well planned. There are also separate houses provided for the refugees from Chernobyl. Those refugees knew that they were controlled by the Integration Movement, but still chose to accept it.

Just as Baiyou had felt since he first played the game, the structure of the Integration Movement was too bloated. In addition to the followers of a few leaders, there were also a large number of ordinary infected people. Those infected people were the ones who would only blindly follow the Integration Movement and vent their inner violence and hatred.

It was they who actually caused the Chernobyl tragedy.

This is something that the Patriots and Frost Star cannot stop. Even if they are strict with themselves, they cannot control the entire overly large organization. What's more, above them, there is Kosice who is happy to see the spread of hatred.

Baiyou and Shuangxing found the Patriot, who was taking a rest at the moment. He stood quietly in the middle of a playground, with the fan on his chest blowing to assist his breathing. The deer antler mask made of white geometric fragments looked majestic.

The huge shield was tightly held in his hand, as if he had never let go. Even when he was resting, he could not put it down.

From a distance, it looks as solemn and cold as a statue.

There was heartache in Shuangxing's eyes as she walked forward slowly.

Sensing someone approaching, the patriot who was taking a nap opened his eyes, and a red dot lit up on his mask.

"...Yelena?" His voice was hoarse, and there was a frightening friction sound when he spoke. That was the Originium crystal growing in his throat - speaking was a torture for him.

But the patriot could not stop speaking, nor was he silent. He had always used his words and actions to roar against the brutality of Ursus.

Froststar walked up to Patriot and looked at his adoptive father. He looked at the man who had been so devastated by ore disease that even his skull was exposed, so he could only wear a mask to live his life.

He had lived for too long. He had lived before Theresa became the king of Kazdel, and up to now, more than two hundred years had passed.

Just by seeing the mask, Frost Star felt sad. For so long, the reason why she was at odds with the Patriot and the reason why she agreed with Tallulah's actions was because she had watched the Patriot become what he is now day by day since she was a child.

Watching his loved ones being eroded by the Originium bit by bit, watching his chest hurt from breathing, watching his knees unable to bend due to the Originium crystals.

Watching my loved ones being killed bit by bit.

Thinking of this, Shuangxing could no longer control herself. Her regained health allowed her to regain the right to cry. She gritted her teeth and hugged the tall patriot in front of her tightly.

The patriot seemed to have not expected that his adopted daughter, who had been at odds with him for several years, would suddenly become like this.

He gently thrust the spear into the ground, freed his right hand, and slowly and stiffly stroked Froststar's head, his gentle movements accompanied by a creaking sound.

Even caressing his adopted daughter would cause the Originium crystals in his arms to rub against each other, causing him unspeakable pain, but even so, the Patriot still caressed Froststar firmly.

He endured the physical discomfort, lowered his voice, and tried his best to make his voice sound calm and steady.

"Good boy... Yes, who bullied you?"

Frost Star suddenly burst into tears, grabbed the corner of the Patriot's clothes tightly, and cried loudly.

The Patriot, the old Wendigo who had lived for more than two hundred years, suddenly became a little overwhelmed. He stood there at a loss, not knowing what to do.

After a long while, he said with some relief: "Good boy... crying is a good thing... Ahem, is there not enough crystals? I'll help you find some more..."

Shuangxing cried for a long time, while Bai Glaze stood aside and waited quietly without saying a word.

It was not until Frost Star cried until her voice became hoarse and only the eye sockets and nose tip on her pale face were red that she slowly took two steps back.

She choked up, raised her head and looked at her tall father.

"...Father, please look at me." She slowly raised her hands and slowly and firmly took off her gloves.

Revealing those flawless, slender hands and that healthy skin.

Shuangxing was crying and laughing, and she couldn't even stand up straight. She looked at the patriot in front of her and cried loudly, "Ore disease, there is a cure!"

She clenched her fist tightly and showed her hand to the patriot, from the palm to the back of her hand, then stretched out her five fingers.

The patriot remained silent, but his fingertips could not stop trembling.

He slowly stretched out his hand, and Frost Star responded by placing her own small hand in the center of the big hand that was as big as her head.

The white glaze on the side saw this and let out a long breath.

The obsession that belongs to the players in my heart has been satisfied.

Chapter 67: The Future of the Infected

Bozhukas held Froststar's hand, looking at it over and over for a long time before he managed to say, "What... happened?"

“Is this, really…?”

Shuangxing wiped her tears and said with a smile, "Yes, it's absolutely true."

She then pointed her hand back to Baiyue: "This is the doctor from Rhodes Island, father. The one you saw was the boy who faced Tallulah."

"The technology to cure oripathy came from him."

Baiyou stepped forward, came in front of the patriot, and nodded slightly.

"Rhodes Island?" Bozhukas looked at Baiyue, lowered his head, and remained silent. He seemed to be thinking about the wording, but couldn't find any suitable words.

After all, the scene that had appeared in his dreams countless times finally came true. His most cherished adopted daughter no longer had to follow the same hopeless path as himself.

There is no need to watch your body go into destruction.

Bozhukas hunched his shoulders, raised his hand and gently stroked his chest, trying to keep his tone steady and polite.

"Thanks, Rhode Island, Doctor."

"You're welcome, sir." Bai Yu smiled, looked at Shuang Xing, stared into Shuang Xing's eyes, and said, "Speaking of which, I have to thank you for this, sir."

"You have a good daughter who chose to believe in me, so I was able to verify the feasibility of this technology with her."

He looked up at Bozhuocasti again, and said in a sincere and firm voice: "And now, I would like you to accept treatment as well."

"I heard from Shuangxing that the mineral disease in your body has become so serious that we must take immediate action. If we delay for another day, it may be irreversible."

"I have prepared a treatment plan for you, please trust me."

Hearing this, Bozhukas slowly straightened up, as if he was thinking about something. After a long while, he shook his head and said, "I really want to agree."

"But, no."

"Right now, I still have things to do that I haven't finished yet."

He paused after every few words. His body had reached the point where speaking was a burden, but he remained firm: "Longmen's operation requires me."

"Tallulah, the Reunion Movement needs me right now."

Shuangxing wanted to speak, but was stopped by Baiyou, who frowned slightly and said righteously: "Not anymore!"

Bai You waved her hand and said, "Bozhuocasti, you clearly know that the current integration movement is on the road to failure, why are you still so persistent?"

"To be worthy of the guerrillas who followed you? Or to be worthy of yourself? If so, your enemy should be Ursus, not the civilians of Longmen."

"Let me tell you, Tallulah's so-called revenge on Longmen and for the infected are nothing but lies."

"Kosice's lies."

As early as when Tallulah was called the inheritor of the Undead Black Snake, Bodracasti wanted to kill Tallulah.

But at that time, Tallulah used her own will to gain the recognition of Bozocasti. On that day, the tall Wendigo became the dragon girl's strong shield, igniting the first fire of the integration movement.

However, as time passed, Bozhukas witnessed with his own eyes that Ursus was becoming more and more brutal and crazy towards the infected, and therefore, at the end of his life, he chose to believe in Tallulah's extreme plan.

He did not agree with Tallulah's plan from the bottom of his heart, but there were multiple reasons. First, he did not have much time left, and he wanted to achieve his revenge on Ursus at the end of his life.

Secondly, he really chose to believe in this only hope, and longed for Chernobyl to become a city of infected people in the true sense. That heavy ambition weighed on Bozhukasti's spine, and he chose to obey.

It's not about aiding and abetting the evil, but about being desperate, and... even if this path is so extreme that it is filled with blood, tears and bones, it is the only path that the infected can take.

And now, Baiyue has cut off this road from its root.

Standing on the bloody road, he roared and said: Look, now I have a new road for everyone. There is no need to give up on ourselves and walk towards destruction.

No need to be bewitched by Kosice anymore, no need to be looked down upon because of the identity of an infected person. From now on, everyone can truly step into any country and work hard for the true future of the infected.

Because there is a cure for oripathy.

Because terminal illness is no longer terminal.

Baiyue raised her head and said to Bozhuocasti stubbornly: "You must receive treatment now."

"I will take care of Tallulah who is controlled by Koscheiye. You just need to let the guerrillas maintain order in Chernobyl from now on."

"When all this is over, everyone can join Rhodes Island. With the joining of the Integration Movement, we can raise the banner of curing the infected together, so that all of Terra will..."

Bozhukasti looked at the young man in front of him, seemingly not understanding where the doctor from Rhodes Island got all this information. From his words and actions, it seemed that he was quite resentful of everyone here.

I have a deep understanding of them, as if I know their past, and at the same time, I am eager to change their situation.

why?

Bozhukas was silent for a moment, then said, "Even so, the Integration Movement is guilty."

"The blood debt of Qie City will always follow us."

"Rhode Island cannot afford such a debt."

“Therefore, the integration movement must exist.”

Bozhukas's meaning was very clear. The Integration Movement had made a big mistake. They launched a massacre in the city of Che. Even if the Patriots and Froststar could remain unscathed, the reputation of the Integration Movement would still be ruined.

If the Reunion Movement joins Rhodes Island, then Rhodes Island will become the target of public criticism and will be subject to criticism and hatred from Ursus.

"Yelena." Bozhukas turned his head and looked at Shuangxing: "...I want to hear your opinion."

"When you grow up, I want you to join Rhodes Island if possible."

Shuang Xing asked back: "What about you?"

"...I will accept treatment."

"But we will continue to move forward with the integration movement."

"Rhodes Island, if it is true, has great ambitions."

"Then, we shouldn't bear unnecessary debts."

Baiyou didn't know what to say. What Bozhukast said was right in a sense. If Rhodes Island really completely swallowed up the elite of the Reunion Movement, it would mean becoming an enemy of Ursus.

Ursus couldn't catch those stragglers of the Reunion Movement that were roaming around, but wouldn't it be easy to catch Rhodes Island? If Ursus became Rhodes Island's enemy, then Rhodes Island would have no way to save the infected in Ursus.

"...Anyway, let's not worry about that for now and go and help you cure your illness first." Bai You's tone softened.

Chapter 68: I Didn’t Know Your Mother Was a Girl

That night, Baiyou and Shuangxing brought Bozhukast to the location of the Silver Honey familiar.

Looking at the huge body of flesh and blood squirming in front of him, Bozhukas fell silent.

He was a little... afraid.

Faust and Mephistopheles, who had completed the treatment, were resting. Faust seemed unusually silent, but he was staring in a daze at his arm after the treatment.

As for Mephistopheles, he was cursing and wanted to swear, but was kicked down by the regicide and tied up tightly with ropes.

"Humph, silly boy Ino, I'm so ungrateful for helping you cure your illness." Lyudmila pointed at Mephisto, then said to Faust: "Hey, Sasha, keep an eye on him, understand?"

Ino is Mephistopheles' real name, while Sasha is Faust's real name.

Faust nodded, his eyes showing some happiness, but his expression was still cold, and said: "But this is betrayal."
