Arknights Welcome to Terra Continent

"Don't move! Stay where you are and put your hands up!"

Before he saw the speaker's face, the dull sound of the shield hitting the ground made the man's heart tremble.

He stared in the direction of the sound with horrified eyes and stammered in a trembling voice.

"I...I...you are...Victoria soldiers?"

The shelf next to it had already become loose due to the collision just now. When the man opened his mouth, it finally collapsed under the heavy weight, leaving a gap.

The man immediately rolled and crawled towards the outside of the encirclement of several people.

"He's trying to escape, Cello, be careful to intercept him!"

The captain gave the order immediately, but Bagpipe on the side noticed something wrong.

"Captain, he didn't go to the exit, he turned back......"

Just as Fengpi said, the target is lost or something, and now he is getting closer and closer to them. Could it be... ?

"Triangle! The target is rushing towards the rear shelf. As soon as the Originium reaction is detected, fire the crossbow bullet immediately!"

(By the way, the code names of these team members are all musical instruments, but the captain's code name, horn, is the instrument that is least commonly used as a musical instrument)

The unidentified object slipped from the target's hand and rolled towards the people. In this case, it was hard not to imagine it as some flammable and explosive item.

"Everyone, get behind my shield!"

The moment the order was given, all team members gathered behind the captain's shield to prepare for possible explosions... except for a certain young man.

"Bagpipes, what are you doing!?"

The captain then noticed that Bagpipe had knocked down the target and used his body to hold down the unknown object that had just rolled in front of them.

"Captain, there is no Originium reaction. That thing is not a bomb or something like that."

Before the captain could reply, Bagpipe beside him breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ah, it was just a false alarm."

The captain raised his fist and was about to hit Fengpi on the head, but this was a bit too reckless. What if it was an Originium bomb with a very short fuse? Or maybe there were other Originium bombs on the target.

But she finally put her hands down. After all, the mission was not over yet. After the mission was over, she would have to practice hard!

"........How is the target?"

"Oh, sorry, I hit you so hard that I can't stand up for a while."

Bagpipe stood up with an apologetic look on his face. If he hadn't used much strength just now, his ribs would have been broken.

"What about these boxes?"

Bagpipe immediately turned his attention to the innocent box next to the target that was affected by the collision just now.

After taking a look, her tone suddenly became weak.

"Oh, what a pity, they're all potatoes and carrots and broccoli! Ugh, I squashed them all, they all looked delicious."

The captain pretended not to hear what Bagpipe said and silently handcuffed the target's hands, but Bagpipe was still chattering beside him.

"This row, and this row... They're all the same, Captain. This warehouse is clearly full of fruits, vegetables and food."

"Triangle, pay attention to whether there are other people approaching. Oboe, search the warehouse with bagpipes. Give a signal at any time. Cello, help this gentleman who has collapsed to the ground."

The captain once again selectively ignored the bagpipes and began to assign tasks.

"Now, sir, please answer a few questions."

As soon as the man raised his head, he felt the sharp gaze.

"I...I don't know anything. I sort potatoes here every day."

"You are a resident of Hillshire, then?"

As he continued to question, his tone gradually became more hostile.

"yes.........."

"Have you heard of the Ghost Troops?"

There was a hint of confusion on the man's face, but it didn't seem like a deliberately disguised expression.

"What? The army? The army refers to soldiers like you!"

His emotions suddenly became excited.

"After taking Lori, Julia and Chris away, is it my turn now?!"

"Please calm down and listen carefully. Someone saw that a batch of Originium products were delivered to this warehouse at midnight yesterday. Now they are not here. You need to explain this."

Still without any emotion, the cold words continued to oppress the man's nerves.

"Explanation? That's what you really want, instead of just hanging me? I, ugh!"

The saliva almost splashed on several people's faces.

"Hey, why are you spitting? This is so unhygienic!"

Feng Di, who had completed the search mission and returned to the team, happened to see this scene and said with some dissatisfaction.

"Any clues?"

Bagpipe shook his head regretfully and said, "No, Captain, there are potatoes everywhere. If the news is correct, they are moving very fast."

"Then take him away. He must know something, but he just doesn't want to speak yet."

Hearing this, the man who was originally angry immediately looked panicked.

"I'm telling you, you're all the same! Trying your best to find faults with us and torture us...you man-eating beasts from Victoria!"

"Ah? Again? Does he think it's an insult to call a fellow Victorian a Victorian? I really don't understand."

Bagpipe was just confused, then shook his head and prepared to take the man away.

But what he didn't know was that the man with his hands cuffed did not consider himself a Victorian at all, nor did he regard Victorians as his compatriots.

Perhaps it would be more appropriate to call them enemies.

"Captain, someone is coming."

The sudden unexpected situation immediately made everyone nervous.

Prepare to disperse.

The captain had already made a gesture, and then asked quietly, "How many?"

"Report, Captain, they seem to be our people."

Judging from the uniform he was wearing, he was indeed a Victorian soldier.

But, their behavior at this time...is not at all like what colleagues should do.

"Captain, we are surrounded. At least judging from the number of people, that's true."

Chapter 422 Colleagues?

"People are here."

Several people with keen hearing heard the noise outside the warehouse. Even though they had lowered their voices and footsteps, they were still noticed by several people.

"From the sound of it, it seems that there aren't many people left outside. If I break through the wall, we have a good chance of evacuating perfectly."

Fengpipe was already gesturing with the city-breaking spear in his hand and spoke in a low voice.

"Don't be impatient."

This reckless behavior was naturally stopped by the captain.

At least we should understand the other party's purpose. At least judging from the clothes, the other party is indeed a colleague.

The other party did not do anything to cover up or cause misunderstanding. The team stopped in unison, and then the leader walked directly towards the few people.

"It looks like a fierce battle just took place here."

Was it intense? A lot of shelves were indeed knocked over. Anyway, let's just treat it as a greeting after meeting.

"Rita Scamander, captain of the 2nd Storm Commando, 7th Front Infantry Battalion."

But someone didn't seem to intend to exchange a few words with the other party, but instead introduced himself directly.

From the very beginning, you must overwhelm the opponent in momentum, even if the opponent's military rank may be higher than yours.

She never cared about this stuff.

"Hello, Scamander... Lieutenant Scamander."

The other party seemed to be stuck on this difficult-to-pronounce name, but finally said the correct name.

"My name isn't easy to remember, you can call me Horn, Captain."

Horn's sharp gaze swept across his face, and at that moment he seemed to feel as if he was being glanced at by his superior.

"............Okay, Ms. Horn, my name is Kelly, Louis Kelly. Sorry, code names are not very popular here."

Captain Kelly seemed to want to use some words to narrow the distance between the two of them, but Horn was not willing to waste any time on small talk.

"Captain Kelly, you and your men must have come here to track down this warehouse."

"Yes, we have received the information as well."

Kelly answered, his eyes inadvertently sweeping over the man who was tied up tightly behind him.

It seems that the other party has caught the suspect, which saves a lot of trouble now.

"Then you should be able to understand the seriousness of the incident. A large number of illegal Originium products were stolen from the military route two months ago and finally disappeared in this area."

Hearing this, Kelly coughed twice unnaturally. After all, whoever lost this thing on his territory would be held responsible in the end.

Unfortunately, he is considered to be a relatively high-ranking officer in this area.

"I don't need to remind you, Captain, that if all these weapons, plus those recently stolen in surrounding counties, fall into the hands of criminals, it will threaten more than just Xiaoqiu County."

Horn continued to speak, and although he used honorifics, he actually put enough pressure on people.

“…Okay, thank you for saying that. I understand.”

"We appreciate your cooperation, too, Captain."

Kelly turned around, secretly wiped the sweat from his forehead in the blind spot of the horn, and cursed in his heart.

Talking to such people is really "Victorian swear words" difficult!

"Hill!"

The captain called out to his adjutant.

"Sir."

A man walked out of the team and saluted Kelly.

"Take this young man... this suspicious person and bring him back to the barracks."

Kelly gave the order, and his adjutant naturally began to execute the order immediately.

But some people are not happy at this time.
