no matter what.

The Outer Rim still awaits salvation.

“There is no paradise, no place flowing with milk and honey. We have to fight for it all by ourselves.”

"We need to stand in the sunlight so that every citizen of the Ark can see us and hear the voice of our Outer Rim."

"Let's go back."

EH stood up from the stinking garbage dump and, as night fell, staggered towards a remote elevator leading to the Outer Rim.

.......

Night falls.

In a quiet bar in the Outer Rim, Viper, Krau, and Jackal were sitting on chairs, whispering to each other.

"EH's negotiations failed." Viper tapped his fingers on his phone, browsing today's news on the dark web. "I heard there was a shootout at the Jackson Hotel today. Someone saw a black-haired woman jump from the fifteenth floor, blend into the crowd, and disappear."

"Afterwards, someone high up in the Ark ordered the arrest of this woman, but the police were unable to apprehend her."

"Hmm, I guess it must be EH." Krau picked up a glass of iced cocktail and drank it in one gulp. "I didn't expect she could come back alive. It seems that the Ark doesn't want to eliminate her in a high-profile manner."

"Klawu, so you were planning to let her die there from the beginning?" Viper narrowed his eyes slightly and suddenly asked.

"Not really." Krau lied casually. She wouldn't admit what she had said when she contacted Dowan. "I definitely hope she can survive. After all, she is the spiritual leader of the Outer Rim and has entered Heaven. If she suddenly died in such an unclear way, it would not be good for the world."

"Hehehe~"

"I'm hungry, Captain. I want to go to the outpost to eat some meat!" The jackal didn't listen to what the two of them were saying. She had been hanging out at the outpost lately and her mind was full of delicious food. "Are you done talking about this? Can I go to the outpost?"

"Come back later, Jackal. I have something else to arrange for you to do."

After thinking for a moment, Krau decided what to do next.

Given EH's personality, after she returns to the Outer Rim, she will definitely gather troops by any means necessary, lead the March to Heaven to attack the Ark, and try to emphasize the existence of the Outer Rim in a more extreme way.

But with the strength he has now when he enters Heaven, he will probably be suppressed by Nikki who is guarding the elevator before he can break through the Ark.

no way.

The so-called terrorist attacks, after all, are nothing more than bullying ordinary people who are unarmed.

Facing Nikki, no matter how skilled a special forces soldier is, he has no choice but to surrender.

Even if everyone in Heaven were equipped with the thickest bulletproof vests and the strongest weapons, their chances of winning against a mass-produced Nikki would be at best a tie.

But it doesn't matter. What Krau wants is not an elite team that can break through the Ark. All she wants is someone who is capable of carrying explosives.

"There's a good chance Steps to Heaven will organize another attack soon. But, you know, they're always short of money." Krau lit a slender cigarette, leaned lazily in his chair, and instructed Viper, "Viper, tell EH that there's something valuable that can be cashed in in the Ark's Gold Battle. Then, send a message to the leaders of the Mafia Queen's Force and have them investigate. The central government will definitely prioritize suspecting those in Tetra over us quiet Nikkis, which will make it easier for us to get on with our business."

"Okay, Captain."

"Secondly, I'll be in charge of contacting the Dark Web." Krau pondered for a moment. "I'll ask them if they have any new weapons. I heard there's a company developing Nikki weapons and armor that humans can use, and they've made some progress recently."

"If we arm the Heavenwards, their members will surely be as powerful as Nikki. Then the Ark will be more willing to listen to the voices of the Outer Rim."

"Captain, what about me?!" The jackal raised his hand quickly, like a puppy about to perform in front of others. "I have something to do too, right?"

"Of course, Jackal, you have things to do too, and they're particularly fun things."

Krau raised his lips and said, "Recently, many elevators have been chained shut. Those people have absolutely no sense of public morality. They actually treat public elevators as their own property. It's truly unbearable. Jackal, your teeth are sharp. Why don't you go and bite off all those chains?"

"Don't worry, Captain, I'll take care of it!"

"I'll bite them all off!"

Chapter 4000 The Day He First Wrapped Me with Bandages ()

Night falls.

On his way back to the outpost, Green stopped by the rehabilitation center.

"awesome."

"You are worthy of being the commander who has become famous recently. I didn't expect that Sen, who never wanted to be released from prison, would one day actively cooperate." Miss Mana, a technician from Missilis, gently pushed her glasses on the bridge of her nose, and then handed a remote control to Green.

"This is?"

"This is used to control the converter. The red button on the left is used to limit her abilities. A simple press will enhance the converter's performance and limit her speech. Conversely, the blue button on the right will unlock Sen's abilities," Mana explained. "I suggest you don't use it unless absolutely necessary. After all, she's a very dangerous prisoner."

"understood."

"Also, press and hold the blue button for ten seconds to remove Mori's mask. Of course, based on the cases Mori has committed in the past, I personally absolutely do not recommend you do this."

"I understand." Green nodded slightly and put the controller in his arms.

"Since you understand, I won't say any more." Mana glanced at him and gave one final instruction: "Also, according to the regulations of the rehabilitation center, we will continue to observe Sen for six months. If she does not commit any crimes during the probation period, she will be officially incorporated into your unit as Nikki."

"But if anything happens during the probation period, such as if she becomes involved in any criminal activity again, she will eventually have to return to the rehabilitation center for solitary confinement."

"Let's not waste any more time on other nonsense. I know you're busy, and I'm busy too. The formalities have been completed, so go and take Sen away."

"Ok."

After Green and Mana processed all the documents to be submitted, he went to Sen's cell and took the dangerous Nikki out of the cell.

"Huh~ What a long-awaited breath of fresh air."

Sen stretched out like a cat, smiling, "Instructor, thank you so much for getting me out of this cell. How can I repay you?"

"I don't need any reward. Remember, from now on, you'll be the resident Nikki at the outpost. As your supervisor and instructor, I'll give you a certain amount of freedom. When necessary, I hope you'll cooperate with the counterattack forces." Green said concisely, "We have many missions to handle every day, especially since Ark often assigns some shady missions. There will always be places where your abilities can be used."

"Okay, instructor."

"Even if it's just for this pair of brand-name shoes, I'll behave well." Sen blinked with a smile, then approached him familiarly and took his arm. "Instructor, you're so handsome, there must be a lot of women harassing you outside, right?"

"Don't worry, I'll make those women back off."

"No need."

Green declined Mori's invitation to hold his arm, then jumped on a black motorcycle parked at the entrance of the rehabilitation center. "I just went to buy a motorcycle. The rehabilitation center is too remote. It takes half an hour to walk to the nearest elevator. Come on, Nikki can ride too."

"Okay, instructor."

"I'll do whatever you say."

All of Sen's little plans fell through.

But she didn't particularly care.

She knew Green had only rescued her for the sake of cooperation, and she didn't mind getting some fresh air. While this meant she couldn't stay in the rehabilitation center and play badly like before, perhaps this was also a new beginning.

Boom, boom.

Green drove a motorcycle and took Sen on the Ark Avenue at night. The neon lights fell on the two of them. A gust of wind blew from somewhere, blowing up Sen's long hair tied into a ponytail, attracting envious glances from others.

"Instructor, have you often been racing on the road with women like this before?"

"This is the motorcycle I bought today. You are the first one."

"Then I'm truly honored~"

"But even someone like me, Nikki, can't escape human nature." Mori smiled and said, "No matter what the reason, when a girl hears that she was a man's first time, she'll inevitably be so happy that she can't sleep."

"I prefer sincere women." Green said calmly, "You're too fond of deceiving people. Even I sometimes can't tell whether what you say is true or false."

"But this world is quite absurd. Compared to those honest Nikkis, bad guys like you are often more popular. Am I right?"

"Hmm, correct, instructor. Ten points for you." Sen's lips curled up, and the fingers of his left hand gently wrapped around his waist. "Compared to honest people, those who dare to break with conventions are often more envied or even resented. This is because such people often defy common sense. Once they break with common sense, it's difficult for people to judge them based on their own constructed worldviews."

"Like you?" Green quipped. "A bad Nikki who encourages others to commit crimes and then enjoys it?"

"Instructor, I'm not a bad Nikki."

"Rather than saying I'm bad, it's better to say I'm just living a clear life." Sen replied with a smile, "Instructor, do you know? Staying in the rehabilitation center has many advantages. First and foremost, in order to control and study your abilities, Ark will definitely provide for you until you are willing to serve Ark."

"Because of my innate special abilities, I've always been able to act like a tyrant in the rehabilitation center, never worrying about food and clothing. I'm sure other Nikkis in the other units can't have such a good life, right?"

"Do you really think life in prison is better than outside?" Green glanced at her and asked curiously.

"Instructor, don't look at me with such strange eyes. I'm telling the truth." Sen blinked, her beautiful, captivating eyes narrowing slightly like a pair of crescent moons. "For most Nikkis, life in prison might actually be much more comfortable than life on the surface. But the prerequisite is that she can't just be an ordinary, mass-produced, worthless Nikki, who will only be brutally brainwashed, destroyed, and scrapped by the Ark."

"Fortunately, you are one of the valuable ones." Green continued her words.

"Yes."

"My ability is very special. I believe the instructor has also realized it. This power of using words to manipulate people's hearts, Fang Zhou will definitely not let go. Therefore, before I was imprisoned in the rehabilitation center, Fang Zhou arranged a very special position for me."

"What position?"

"What else could it be? Nothing more than a PR position for the chaebol, a lackey for the higher-ups." Mori smiled lazily, recounting a past story Green didn't know about. "The Ark's higher-ups wanted me to be their messenger. Whenever there was any public opinion-related issue, they would send me out and use my abilities to completely eliminate any factors that were detrimental to maintaining stability."

"And then, you didn't agree?" Green glanced at Sen's charming face in the rearview mirror.

"I'm not stupid. I prefer a freer life to working like a slave every day." Sen suddenly leaned over and whispered, "Like now, with a little freedom."

"Then why do you believe me?"

"Maybe I'll squeeze you 24 hours a day," Green joked.

"Instructor, for con artists, reading people's expressions is a natural skill, and I can see that you are a very reliable man."

"Even if I'm wrong, I can always go back to the rehabilitation center, right, instructor?" Sen blinked with a smile. As the Nikki who understood life best in the Ark, she had indeed paved a back-up plan for herself called the rehabilitation center.

Anyway, as long as she is not satisfied, she can go back to jail comfortably at any time.

"I won't let you go back so easily."

"The outpost is in ruins, and the counterattack force needs more Nikkis. You'll find your place here."

"Okay, let's not talk about these things anymore."

"Do the shoes I gave you fit?"

Green mentioned the pair of brand-name sneakers that he had carefully selected at the brand-name store yesterday. At this moment, they were quietly worn on Sen's feet, and he hadn't even had time to tear off the labels on the shoes.

Sen swung his feet lightly and said with a smile, "Thank you, instructor. It fits very well. I like it very much. I'll give you 50 points. In return, I will teach you yoga tonight, instructor~"

"Yoga?"

"Isn't that a woman's exercise?" Green curled his lips and said, "First of all, my body is simply not capable of such flexibility. Secondly, I don't like lying on a blanket and stretching my legs like an idiot. Just give me a break."

"That won't do, instructor."

"My yoga is different from traditional ones. I guarantee it will make you feel so happy that you will ascend to heaven."

"Then I'll have to wait and see."

.......

——————————Counterattack Force——————————

Green: "Although we are almost at the commander's office, I still have to say that from today on, another Nikki will join the outpost and will be stationed here permanently."

Nien: "Sen? She is the serious criminal that Master mentioned before, right?"

Anis: "Serious criminal?"

Anis: "Commander, what kind of people are you trying to get here every day?"

Rabbi: "Since they are serious criminals, it's better for us to keep our distance. From what I know, the Nikkis who are detained in the rehabilitation center are like gas tanks that can explode at any time and can easily hurt others."

Green: “I’ll pay attention.”

Green: "By the way, what were you talking about just now?"

Nien: "Master, the Blue Sky Newspaper in Ark is having a poetry event recently. The first prize is 100 million credits and a whole bag of limited edition Old Earth coffee. We are having a poetry writing competition!"

Nian: "Would you like to see the poem we wrote?"

Marian: "Hey, I wrote a few sentences too, Commander~"

Green: "Okay, that's interesting. Send it to me."

Anis: "No, don't!"

Anis: "Nian, this is too shameful, don't send it out!!!"

Nian sent "A Poem for You" to the chat room.
