"..." However, even though Frost Star said so, Chen Qi did not move at all. Frost Star still felt Chen Qi's palm tightly grasping her hand.

Frost Star tried to struggle, but Chen Qi's palm was as strong as an iron clamp, and no matter what she did, she couldn't get rid of it.

Gradually, Frost Star's expression changed a little. Her cheeks showed a bit of redness which had not appeared for a long time, and her eyes were moist.

Frost Star felt his heart beating faster after a long time. His struggling movements became weaker and weaker, and even his pair of long white ears drooped a little.

"Hurry, let go..." Finally, Shuang Xing gave up struggling, lowered her head, and whispered to Chen Qi in an almost coquettish way.

“—I can’t do that.”

Chen Qi's faint reply came slowly from the side. However, Shuang Xing, who lowered his head, was so confused at the moment that he could not hear Chen Qi's words at all.

On the side, Tallulah and the Patriot seemed to react, while Kal'tsit and the Doctor also thought of something and looked at each other.

“…Is it stuck?”

Finally, the doctor's faint voice was heard, and at this moment, Frost Star's drooping rabbit ears couldn't help but froze, and he actually raised his head and looked at Chen Qi, who had a bitter expression on his face.

It was obvious that Chen Qi's arms had loosened, but the two of them still held their hands tightly together. Obviously, this was a little different from what Shuang Xing thought.

"——I encountered this kind of thing in Ursus. My palm touched the iron railing and it got stuck."

Chen Qi's helpless voice came faintly, looking at his hands that were inseparable at this moment, and said to everyone:

"So I said, I only have this one hand, and when I touched it, I estimated that I had at least level six frostbite."

“…I have hot water here.”

Kal'tsit's voice came over faintly, and then she picked up a kettle and came to the two of them, pouring water on them without saying anything.

As a burst of white mist rose, Chen Qi's face changed again!

"*Longmen swears*! Boil the water!"

"The temperature is not high, so I can't untie your hands." Kal'tsit's voice did not change at all because of Chen Qi's shouting. However, as soon as Kal'tsit finished speaking, the hands of the two separated at once.

The moment their palms separated, Chen Qi and Shuang Xing's palms retracted at the same time, one because of pain and the other because of confused emotions.

"Don't shout. Come to me to get the medicine. I'll prescribe you both frostbite and burn ointment."

Kal'tsit held the kettle in her hand and spoke coldly to Chen Qi, but for some reason, she raised her head slightly and met the Patriot's eyes that were looking at her.

Kal'tsit and the Patriot looked at each other in mid-air, and quietly, there was already a hint of confrontation in their eyes.

"...I'll go get some medicine for Chen Qi."

The doctor standing by shuddered for some reason and felt that he should leave this dangerous place as soon as possible.

The peace talks finally ended successfully with everyone having their own thoughts.

Congratulations! Congratulations! (Tea)

Chapter 159: Conversation between Kal'tsit and Froststar

"It's packed."

“…Now I feel like my hand is fake too.”

Looking at his right palm which was wrapped in thick bandages and only the outline of it could be barely seen, Chen Qi tried to feel the strength, but there was nothing else except the real pain and the cool feeling brought by the potion.

"Really... It's already troublesome to mix with one hand, so wouldn't I become disabled?"

"You have been a disabled person for a long time. Disabled people should rest well in the logistics department."

Kal'tsit's words came faintly from the side, however, her words now were not as gentle as before to Chen Qi. Instead, they became colder than usual, even a bit sarcastic.

The sudden change in attitude attracted the attention of the doctor next to him, but he didn't say anything and silently became his own invisible man.

Usually, the doctor always complained to Chen Qi that Kal'tsit didn't take him seriously, but now, he began to hope that he was really a transparent person, and there was no need for him to be present in such troublesome things.

He is just a doctor, and he can show off his skills in commanding wars, but as for disputes like this... he would rather not speak up.

"That's perfect. You should rest well in the back these few days. Anyway, your palms now can't hold a sword or a test tube."

"That potion..."

"——With Warfarin here, we also provide an absolutely closed assembly line work, there will be no problems." Kal'tsit said lightly, and her tone did not allow Chen Qi to have any doubts.

Currently, the formulation of Originium disease potion has been put into production on an assembly line in Rhodes Island. However, this assembly line is a little different. All the medical and scientific research operators involved are among the best in Rhodes Island.

Moreover, each of them only knows the steps of his own step, and they have no idea what the previous step was or what the next step is.

All people responsible for a program are arranged in an independent work area, and even each person's studio is separated. Materials are delivered by other logistics operators and distributed evenly, sacrificing efficiency in exchange for safety and confidentiality.

Before this work started, Kal'tsit called everyone in charge of the work to the conference room. Throughout the whole process, she only said six words very seriously.

"Don't ask, don't listen, don't tell."

Just six short words were enough to make these medical and scientific research operators break out in cold sweats. At that moment, Kal'tsit even felt like a **** ruler.

But, for the sake of Terra - it's all worth it.

The work has been assigned, but Chen Qi's laboratory is still a top-secret place. There, he and Ifrit are constantly mixing new formulas from the future based on their memories in order to pursue more efficient and universal medicines.

However, at this time, Chen Qi's broken arm and other hand were also injured because of what happened just now. As a scientific researcher, Chen Qi is now considered a disabled person.

Fortunately, although Chen Qi is a doctor, he is not a surgeon. If Chen Qi was a surgeon, he would probably never be able to perform surgery again in his life after this incident.

Of course, even if Kal'tsit dares to do this, there are still ways to make Chen Qi recover.

But the current situation is... Kal'tsit doesn't seem like she wants Chen Qi to get better so quickly.

"There's no other way..." Chen Qi shook his head and said helplessly. Although he was a doctor, he only treated serious illnesses and Originium diseases. A doctor like him, when faced with such daily minor injuries, apart from emergency bandaging and disinfection, if he didn't have the matching medicine with him, he really couldn't do anything.

Since Kal'tsit said so, he had no choice but to accept it.

“…When will my prosthesis be repaired?”

"Kal'tsit is still researching." Kal'tsit said lightly, then frowned slightly and continued: "Don't always think about your arm. Think more about the free time later. Find some ways to relax yourself."

"…Then I'll go to the armory to do some weapon maintenance."

"turn down."

"Then I'll go and give you some instructions on the battlefield layout."

"turn down."

"…The kitchen team is okay, right?"

"Can't you do something that doesn't require much effort?" Kal'tsit finally couldn't bear it anymore. She covered her forehead with one hand, looking like she had a headache. She wanted to be angry but couldn't.

"Then I'll go to bed, that's fine."

Chen Qi was also helpless and waved his hands. He didn't know what happened today and why he was so unlucky.

"Then we'll leave first."

It was not until Chen Qi walked away that Tallulah and the Patriot slowly left. They still needed to go to Chernobyl to organize repairs and other work.

The reason why Froststar didn't follow this time was not only because she was now a Rhodes Islander, but also because she sensed something.

It was not until the Patriot Tallulah walked away that Froststar heard Kal'tsit's voice behind her.

"I think you don't mind. Come and talk to me."

"……Um."

Froststar turned around and nodded to Kal'tsit.

"I, I'll go see Chen Qi."

However, as if he was aware of the fact that he was in the way, the doctor silently chose to withdraw after a mental struggle.

Two women are in a play, and the doctor doesn't want to be the announcer. He can't even watch the show now, for fear that he will get caught up in it.

As the Doctor left, Kal'tsit looked at Froststar, and Froststar was also looking at Kal'tsit, but neither of them spoke.

It was not until later that Kal'tsit's moist lips moved slightly, and she said something that shocked Frost Star.

"Let me make it clear in advance that I am Chen Qi's biological mother."

"?!"

The first thing he said was a shocking statement. After Shuangxing's eyes widened a little, it took a long time for her to slowly accept this fact.

"So...does he know about this?"

“…Maybe he knows, maybe he doesn’t.” Kal’tsit thought for a moment and said uncertainly, “He may have guessed it, but since he didn’t confess, he probably didn’t want to embarrass us.”

"Of course, I am not telling you this as a person from Rhodes Island, but as your biological mother."

Kal'tsit said this, and seemed to have sorted out her words. After a moment of hesitation, she shook her head and continued:

"Frost Star, I don't know what kind of feelings you have towards him now, but I think I should tell you this advice."

"——You and him are not a good match, so just stop here."

"..."

Kal'tsit's words made Frost Star slightly stunned. She never thought that these were the words Kal'tsit would say to her.

However, for some reason, Froststar's mood sank slightly as Kal'tsit spoke, and she became a little depressed.

"…Dr. Kal'tsit, what do you mean?"

"——To be frank, I don't agree with the two of you having a relationship beyond friendship." Kal'tsit was as outspoken as ever. She seemed to be unable to think of anything else to say, and said lightly:

"He comes from the future and will return one day, Miss Froststar. I think what I said is very straightforward."

"Think about it carefully. It's not too late now. If you wait until you are deeply involved in it, you may be more miserable than you are now."

After saying that, Kal'tsit said no more, slowly stood up and left the office.

Before leaving, she turned her head slightly, looked at Shuangxing's back, and said lightly:

"I will take your Originium disease seriously, and so will Chen Qi. You two can become very good friends."

"But whether to go further or not - I advise you to think about it."

"..."

Kal'tsit had already walked away, but Froststar was still sitting there, for a long, long time, without coming back to her senses...

Chapter 160: Frost Star's Self-Examination

Frost Star didn't know how he left the office. He just felt that his body was a little stiff from sitting. He stood up almost instinctively and walked towards the door.

Frost Star was not heavy, but at this moment, the way she dragged herself forward always made people feel that she seemed exhausted.

Many Rhodes Island operators passing by seemed to want to say something after seeing Froststar, however, their companions beside them all shook their heads and did nothing.

After all, they were operators that had just been transferred from Reunion. Although they had made peace with Reunion now, no one had any communication with Froststar at the moment. In fact, many Rhodes Island operators were still afraid of Froststar's terrifying Originium skills on the battlefield.

She was evenly matched with the future Ifrit. Even Rhodes Island's elite operator Huang, Hoshiguma, and Little Ifrit could not defeat her together. She was just a little embarrassed. Such powerful combat power truly made everyone who witnessed this battle feel awe.

In fact, this situation is not limited to Rhodes Island. It is also happening in the Reunion Movement. Froststar is strong and not good at speaking. Coupled with the coldness that comes from her Originium skills, people always subconsciously feel that she is a difficult person to get along with.

However, in reality, the Patriot and his defense forces, as well as Froststar's Snow Monster Squad, all knew that Froststar was an extremely gentle person. If there was anything difficult about him, it was probably that he was a little bit competitive.

It's just that Froststar is too lonely. Apart from the Patriot, not even the Snow Monster Squad is close to her. To them, Froststar is their "big sister", the person who they will do their best to fulfill any order given to them.

However, compatriots do not necessarily mean friends. It is a bit strange to say that Frost Star once hated Mephisto, but now it seems that she is actually quite envious of the relationship between Mephisto and Faust.

Sometimes, Frost Star is even a little jealous. Even someone like Mephistopheles has someone like Faust silently protecting him. What about her?

Apart from the old stubborn man, how many people know that her name is not Frost Star, but Yelena?

"You look so gloomy. Are you in a bad mood just after coming here?"

"Um?!"

However, the sudden voice in front of her made Shuangxing's rabbit ears, which were a little sad because of the darkness, tremble. The moment she looked up, she met Chen Qi's somewhat helpless eyes.

“…If you feel it’s too much of a stretch, I can ask Tallulah to make some concessions and allow the Kingslayer to come as well.”

"…No, no need. I'm fine."

When Shuang Xing saw Chen Qi, she almost subconsciously took a step back, but then she realized that her reaction was a bit too intense, and she quickly tried to control her emotions.

However, when she saw Chen Qi's familiar face, Frost Star's mind suddenly reappeared with Kal'tsit's words.
