"...Chen Qi, promise me that you won't hide anything from me."

"……certainly."

Chen Qi agreed, he lied.

But, for him now, it doesn't matter.

It’s just... I feel very guilty inside.

However, if I tell them about these things about myself, it will only add to my troubles. Not only will I be unable to stop the slipping away of my life, but it may also prevent many things from going smoothly.

At least, before he left, he wanted them all to know what their next step should be.

"... Ifrit, our current strength is still very weak, but at least we have a certain amount of strength now."

"Through our efforts during this period, we have united many forces, including Kjerag, Black Steel International, Longmen, Xiosta... These forces can continuously provide us with the resources we need."

"——But, it's not enough. We don't have the strength to fight against a behemoth like Ursus."

Chen Qi said lightly, and on the side, he pulled out a large map from the database, which was the map of Terra.

"Yan Country... is mysterious and inaccessible. Although Lao Wei has a close relationship with the Yan Country's royal family, this is not a bargaining chip for us to make peace with Yan Country."

"Colombia, with its profit-seeking mentality, cannot intervene, and we have our targets there."

"...Other countries either cannot make the list or are facing internal and external troubles. There is only one country that we can have a chance to unite with."

As he spoke, Chen Qi pointed his finger at a seemingly large area in the west - Victoria.

"There is our only chance, the only chance to contact the Victorian royal family and gain their support."

"The current situation of the Victorian royal family... is probably that of a puppet. If we can help the royal family there regain power, then with Victoria's support, we will have enough capital to truly unite with other countries."

"——Fortunately, I know where the breakthrough point of this royal family is."

Chen Qi said this with a slight smile. He knew that they had a "big fish" who happened to be living in Victoria.

If successful, the best outcome would be that not only would a huge threat be eliminated immediately, but Victoria would also be able to regain power and gain the support of the royal family.

And the key to helping Victoria's royal family regain power... lies in the slums there.

"Click."

However, just as Chen Qi was planning the next mission, the door of the laboratory was suddenly opened and a medical operator from Rhodes Island walked in.

"Mr. Chen Qi." Upon seeing Chen Qi, the medical operator first addressed him respectfully, and then said:

"Doctor Kal'tsit asked me to inform you to bring the most effective Originium disease potion and go to the medical room."

"——Dr. Gavial, there are many people who seem to be from the same family as Dr. Gavial who have returned from outside. Many of them have developed highly infected Originium disease!"

Chapter 85: The invaded homeland, the reconstruction of Noah's team

A few minutes later, Chen Qi put on his white coat and masks together with Ifrit, and immediately entered the medical room.

As soon as the sensor door was opened, disinfectant and a temperature a few degrees lower than the outside world hit them in the face, but neither Chen Qi nor Ifrit paid attention to this.

"What's wrong?" Chen Qi put on the sterilized white gloves handed to him by the medical operators next to him, and looked at the woman with long green hair lying on the hospital bed.

Gavial, the most senior medical operator in Rhodes Island. In the Rhodes Island where Chen Qi was, Gavial was also a senior medical operator who could be compared with Warfarin.

Gavial, a member of the Adakris (crocodile) race, was well-known throughout her tribe for her strength in hand-to-hand combat and her intangible explosive physique. However, no one knew why she chose to leave the tribe and join Rhodes Island.

Moreover, she did not become a powerful guard operator who could get a six-star rating, but chose to be a medical operator with barely a four-star rating, which made many people feel incredible.

However, this cannot conceal the fact that Gavial is a dedicated and reliable medical operator. Although everyone in Rhodes Island knows how tough she is, and there are rumors from time to time that Gavial beats up disobedient patients, this cannot deny that Gavial is kind-hearted.

Gavial is a good doctor and a doctor with quite good professional level.

But now... looking at Javier in front of him, with extremely obvious traces of Originium all over his body, and even the traces of the spreading Originium disease visible to the naked eye, Chen Qi frowned for the first time.

This level of infection...was it caused by being hit directly by the Originium weapon?

"What happened? How did the infection level suddenly become so high?"

"…I don't know the details, but it should be that something happened in Jiaweier's hometown."

Kal'tsit, who was standing by, was also wearing a mask. She directed other medical operators to cut the bulges of the Originium disease infection and to use medicine to prevent the spread of the Originium disease infection. She said to Chen Qi:

"Some time ago, Gavial received a letter from her hometown. They held a... ceremony there? I think the content was to select the chief."

"Gavier submitted a report to me. On the one hand, he wanted to go back and see his hometown. On the other hand, it was also our previous mission to recruit a group of members from Gavier's hometown who could join Rhodes Island."

"…But now it seems that they are facing some obstacles."

As Kal'tsit spoke, he looked outside. After a moment of hesitation, he said calmly:

"Gavial's flying vehicle probably carried a dozen or so people from the Adakris race. These people... might be the last surviving Adakris people there."

"Javier fell into a coma upon arrival. Although the pilot we sent out was not infected with Originium disease, he was obviously also under mental stress."

"...These Adakris people, without exception, have a high level of infection, which is why I called you here."

"……I see."

Chen Qi nodded, looking at the unconscious Gavial, his eyes flashed a few glimmers, and then he said to Ifrit beside him:

"Ifrit, help me. Compress all the Originium disease potions to ten times their original strength, add some blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing potions, and prepare for intravenous injection."

"Yes." Ifrit nodded, put on a mask and gloves, and began to compress and prepare the Originium disease potion.

“——Others, assist Chen Qi in his work.” Kal’tsit looked at the medical operators whose jobs had been taken away and said calmly:

"We have a lot of patients to see now. Everyone, be prepared for a tough battle."

"Yes, Dr. Kelsey."

Obviously, Kal'tsit's authority in the medical department was still very strong. She immediately received a lot of responses, and everyone in the infirmary started to move.

...From noon to late at night, the sensor door leading to the last ward slowly opened.

"It's all under control for now... but we still have to be on guard against the possibility of it getting worse. After all, with this level of Originium infection, it's already really lucky not to die."

Chen Qi touched his eye sockets and spoke to Kal'tsit beside him in a tired voice. However, he felt a little confused while walking and almost lost his balance.

Fortunately, Ifrit was there to support him, so he didn't fall.

"…I'm fine. I'll go to sleep later."

Chen Qi waved his hand, then looked at Kal'tsit and asked wearily:

"So, what happened?"

"…Among this group of people, there was a woman named Zumama. She was the one who was least affected. Before the consultation, she told me some relevant information."

Kal'tsit said this, frowning slightly, as if recalling something. After a long while, she said lightly:

"It seems that... a mining team came to them and wanted to mine Originium. But this action was rejected by Zumama at the time."

"Then, when Jiaweier returned there and the day of electing the chief arrived, this group of people came again and raided several of their villages."

"I heard from Zumama that this mining force is well-equipped, and the tribesmen there are simply unable to stop their attack."

"'A long-barreled weapon that spews fire', 'a huge beast of steel' - that's how she described it."

"…Is that a gun or a tank?"

Chen Qi couldn't help but look serious when he heard this. He frowned and said to Kal'tsit, "Moreover, from this description, it seems to be a submachine gun and a combat tank."

"It would be outrageous if a mining team in an uninhabited area were smuggling with such equipment."

"...You mean, there is someone behind them directing them?" Kal'tsit was stunned when she heard this and couldn't help but start to guess.

"This is the only possibility." Chen Qi nodded and couldn't help but start thinking:

"Dr. Gavier's hometown... seems to be in Sargon, right? And it's quite remote, it's not an exaggeration to say it's a border area."

"The only country that can quietly pass through the border, bypass the Sargon officials, and mine the uninhabited area is... the Sargon marginal area."

"You mean...Victoria?" Kal'tsit couldn't help but ask with some doubt.

"...They are indeed the most suspicious." Chen Qi nodded, but also expressed some doubts about his own guess.

"But, the internal situation of Victoria now... the royal family can be described as puppets. Where do they get the extra strength to invade Sargon's border?"

"...It's suspicious, but we have to be prepared."

Chen Qi didn't understand these things clearly. He probably had to wait until Javier and the other tribesmen woke up before he could fully understand them.

"——By the way, Dr. Kal'tsit, I have a proposal that needs your approval."

"The forces we have gathered have now reached a certain scale. Although they are still a little weak, Rhodes Island now has enough strength to try to achieve our goal."

"My proposal is to gather the elite operators who meet the requirements in Rhodes Island and rebuild the decapitation team we formed in the past."

"The name of the team is 'Noah'."

Now, the time is ripe, and Rhodes Island's ability to compete has basically taken shape.

Then, we will use Victoria as a springboard to thoroughly expand the scale of Rhodes Island and make it a truly international force.

By then, Rhodes Island’s weight would be so great that even Ursus would have to be wary!

However, if it fails, Rhodes Island will suffer an unprecedented impact. This is a huge gamble. If it wins, the fate of Rhodes Island will be completely rewritten.

But if they lose the bet... then Rhodes Island will most likely be completely devastated, and all the resources and connections accumulated through previous efforts will most likely be wasted because of this action.

But now that things have come to this - I have to take this gamble.

The time has come, this is their last chance.

And the Noah team will be a real sharp blade, piercing into the enemy's heart and delivering a fatal blow that will turn the entire situation upside down!

Chapter 86: The formation of the Noah team, Zumama's ideas

The rescue was very timely. Gavial and her clansmen received timely treatment for Originium disease potion. After a whole day of rescue, their condition was obviously under control.

Of course, it will take some time for the effect to subside. After all, something like the ten-fold compression of the Originium disease potion should only be used for emergency treatment. If the effect is too strong, it may backfire.

All medicines are poisonous to some extent, and this is also true for the Originium disease potion. After all, this potion is just a neutralizing effect with Originium. If the effect is too strong, the emergency solution at that time may be to eat Originium raw.

Of course, for people in this world where almost everyone has traces of Originium infection in their bodies, there is basically no problem with Originium disease potion as long as you don't drink it every day.

Gavial and his companions gradually woke up from their coma, and after a period of recuperation, most of them regained their ability to move.

However, although the body recovers, the scars cannot be forgotten.

"Those guys... destroyed my home and wreaked havoc in my hometown."

Lying on the hospital bed, when he thought of the scenes that he had encountered in his hometown, he could not help but become angry. He waved his fists violently, making a series of sounds that broke through the air.

"Damn it! If it weren't for that iron lump that spewed the source stone shell, how could I have been hit and defeated?!"

"Jia, Javier...please don't be angry."

Next to Gavial, a young girl wearing a black robe with a fashionable and exotic black outfit underneath, who looked quite sexy and immature, was comforting Gavial.

"Gavial, this isn't your fault..."

"Yes, we are useless... If only we could be as strong as you, Gavial..."

The girl said this with a rather gloomy look on her face, and Gavial couldn't get angry for a moment when he saw the gloomy look on the girl's face.

"…Okay, Tomimi, I know."

After patting the little head of the girl named Tomimi, Gavial finally smiled again. Seeing that this little follower of his before he left his hometown was still supporting him after so many years, Gavial felt much more relieved.

"Since our home has been destroyed, then, Tomimi, this will be your new home from now on."

"We in Rhodes Island are a very good organization. Especially now that our business is at an unprecedented growth stage, it is easy to accommodate more than 20 of us."

"Yeah." Tomimi nodded, smiled, and said:

"As long as Gavial is here...Tomimi can be anywhere."

"Good boy."

Gavial smiled, feeling relieved that his somewhat timid follower could step out of the shadows so quickly.

But...she couldn't.
