NIKKE, after maxing out the favorability, all the Nikkis are not right

Nuclear energy?

But even nuclear power generation cannot support a city of such a terrifying scale.

"The more I think about it, the more I feel like there's something wrong with this city."

"Logically speaking, human science and technology shouldn't be advanced enough to remove the brain and transform the human body, but Nikki was born."

"The same goes for electricity. If there had been technology that could produce large amounts of electricity at low cost, it would have spread throughout the world long ago. However, Ark has been secretive about it and never made it public."

“Finally the food...”

"For a product like Popate, which has no quality assurance, to be widely promoted in Ark, I think there must be someone behind the scenes fanning the flames."

"So, how did Poppet make it? Cadaver starch? Cockroach protein? Maybe even Letcher's remains?"

"I always feel that there are too many secrets hidden under this city. Maybe even a CEO like Shuen doesn't know how the Ark works." Green recalled the last negotiation with Shuen.

During the negotiations, he observed Shuen's expression.

But when the Ark's secrets were mentioned, the CEO showed no reaction, as if she didn't care at all. It was as if, apart from the stock price of Missilis and her most precious Laplace, there was nothing else left in Shuen's empty mind.

"There are so many questions."

"If I ask Anderson and Ingrid a lot of questions, they might not answer me."

"After all, they're all like the Riddler, unwilling to even tell me my true identity."

Green looked down at the coffee that had settled at the bottom of the cup and couldn't help but frowning slightly.

Who is he? A time traveler? A commander who has been reborn?

Are those past memories real?

He had once thought hard about these issues, but now it seemed that excessive thinking would lead him into the trap of nihilism.

"Anyway, no matter who I am, I still have an entire outpost and a whole army of Nikki waiting for me to worry about." Green smiled. At this point, there was no point in thinking about these problems anymore.

"I am who I am."

"Commander of the counterattack force."

"Invincible, unstoppable... Hmm, isn't that a bit too boastful?"

"It's time to go back. Let's bring some milk tea to Lapi and the others."

Green stood up, packed a few hot drinks, then walked into the drizzling rain with a paper bag in hand and an umbrella in hand.

.......

————————Counterattack Force————————

Green: "I brought back milk tea, does anyone want some?"

Anis: "Me, me, me!"

Nian: "I want to drink too, Master~"

Rabbi: "Thank you, Commander. I'll take it."

Rabbi: "By the way, Anis, Nian, didn't you just say you wanted to lose weight? Drinking milk tea while losing weight is not good."

Nien: "Huh? Did we tell you that?"

Anis: "Maybe Nian said it, but I never said it!"

Anis: "Besides, I'm Nikki. Nikki doesn't need to lose weight, hehe! Thank you, Commander~ By the way, what flavors did you buy?"

Green: "Anis's chocolate flavor, Nian's strawberry flavor, Rabi's original bubble tea, and Marian's favorite grape flavor. I remember each of your favorites, but it's a pity she's not here."

Marianne: "Woohoo...I'm here!"

Agnes: "Don't cry, Marianne."

Anis: "Even though you can't drink it now, I will drink your share as well. Just think of it as you drinking it too~ Hehe!"

Nian: "Wow, Anis, you really want to kill people and destroy their hearts!!"

Marianne: “?”

Marian: "Wow, Commander, Anis is bullying me again!"

Green: "Okay, Marian, next time you come to the Ark, I'll take you to drink the best. By the way, how are you doing over there lately?"

Marianne: "I'm fine, Commander. Life in the castle is a bit tough, but the crown and the bells have taught me a lot of new things. I feel like I've become stronger than before. So, when will you come to pick me up, Commander?"

Green: "I promise you, we'll see each other again soon."

Green: "Before I come, you have to eat well and sleep well, understand?"

Chapter 4000: Maiden: Suki, Kiss, Marriage ()

After chatting for a while in the group chat, Green put down his phone, brought milk tea to Anis and the others' dormitory, and then turned around to go back to the dormitory.

"Hey, wait a minute, Commander, are you free tomorrow?" As Green turned around, Anis grabbed his collar tightly and said, "Have you been a little too busy lately? I can't find you every time I look for you."

"tomorrow..."

"Well, I should be free."

"Because the combat report has been submitted, I'm not sure if Ark will assign me a temporary mission. But even if there is no mission, I have a lot of things to do recently." Green pinched her chin and thought. When she saw Anis's slightly resentful look, she had to change the subject and said, "Is there anything you want to talk to me about?"

"Here are the movie tickets."

Anis slapped a movie ticket into his hand and then pointed at herself with a smile: "This is me!"

"Tomorrow evening at 7 o'clock, at the entrance of Xinlong Cinema, remember to bring me and the movie ticket, understand, Commander?"

"Good good."

"Remember to call me tomorrow. I'm afraid I'll forget again."

"Roger that!"

Anis smiled sweetly, saluted Green, and went back to the dormitory happily.

After Green put away the movie tickets, he returned to the commander's room and half-lay down on the bed.

The bed in the commander's room is very soft. Although Ark has always been very tight-fisted in terms of funding and will not provide too much financial support to the outpost, the infrastructure is well built.

Of course, the above regulations only apply to commanders.

Compared to the commander's quarters, Nikki's quarters were shabby and shabby, lacking even hot water. Even so, Fang Ark didn't seem to mind the issue. They thought, since Nikki had no say, they were happy to have a dorm and a bed.

Half lying on the bed, taking advantage of the quiet of the night, Green took out his controller after a long absence, connected it to the computer, and played some games.

"Oh, the most annoying part is the puzzle-solving part."

"Why do game makers like to cram all sorts of inexplicable puzzles into their games these days?" Green sighed as he watched the puzzle process on the screen return to the starting point. "Think it's fun, huh?"

Just finished complaining.

His cell phone began to vibrate.

Green took out his cell phone and saw that the message came from someone named Nikki's smurf account.

————————Black Rose————————

Black Rose (Maiden): "Turn the third pillar twice, then pull the lever on the ground. The puzzle is solved."

Green: "How do you know?"

Black Rose: "Because I'm watching you."

Black Rose: "Through your eyes."

Black Rose: "Oh, I'm a little shy."

Green: "It's not right to spy on others, Maiden."

Black Rose: "Yes~"

Black Rose: "Oh~baby~Yeah yeah yeah~"

Black Rose: "Have you heard this song? It's really nice."

Green: "Come in, we can talk about anything in person."

Green: "I'll be waiting for you in the commander's room."

Black Rose: "Say it to my face?"

Black Rose: "Oh, no, I mean, are you meeting that guy named Maiden?"

Black Rose: "She went in."

hum.

Just as Green put down his phone, Maiden appeared in the commander's room late at night at a ghostly speed, like a phantom in the night.

It seems that this was a "chance encounter" that had been planned for a long time.

Green looked at Maiden, who was pretending to be a chance encounter, and couldn't help but smile: "Just come if you want to, Maiden, why do you have to act like you just happened to get here?"

"How should I put it, Commander?"

"Actually, socializing is a bit difficult for someone like me." Maiden adjusted the mask on his face and then sighed. "Because of my work, my social circle is as small as a toilet seat. Aside from the Commander, I basically don't have anyone I know well."

"Doesn't Giraudin count?"

"I've gotten to know her so well I'm thinking of unfollowing her account." The mention of Girotin made Maiden feel even more aggrieved. "Commander, can you imagine? Let me give you an example. Imagine if there was a Nikki in your unit, and she spoke in this tone every day."

"When fighting Letcher: Kukuku, I grant you the death destined for you."

"During the daily handover: Leave it to me from now on. The Black Dragon Wave of the Demon Realm will eliminate all problems."

"Even when we were chatting, he was saying things like, 'I am Jirotin Hermes the One-Winged Demon King' and so on. You will feel as sad as I do."

"But she's still your only good friend, right?" Green chuckled and said.

"That's exactly why it's so frustrating," Maiden explained tearfully. "That girl, Girotin, doesn't play games when she's not busy. She spends her days writing all sorts of dark and cool settings and role-playing in lonely places. And I'm just a social worker. It's really hard for me."

"So, your trouble is..."

"Commander, I want to find a place where I can feel like I belong." Maiden leaned against the window, gazing at the faraway counterattack unit's quarters. Her rose-red eyes revealed a glimmer of envy. "Every time I see the Nikkis in other units getting along so well, I'm so envious. I want to experience that sense of camaraderie and belonging, too."

"But, Commander, you also know."

"My clothes and this mask bring a lot of inconvenience to my daily life." Maiden used his hand to pry off the dull mask on his face. "Every time I want to socialize, people see me dressed like this and immediately become wary."

"Some even say I'm the queen of a secret club, and my hobby is torturing others with whips. Commander, do you think that's reasonable?"

"That's unreasonable." Green made her a cup of coffee and placed it on the table. "In that case, why don't you take off your clothes?"

"Take off your clothes, here?"

Maiden pursed his lips and said, "That's too much, Commander. I finally mustered up the courage to tell you about my troubles, but you only care about your own dirty desires."

Just as Green was about to explain, Maiden reached for his uniform and asked shyly, "So, do you want to take it off now?"

"..."

"Look, I actually have a team in the online game. It's all people I know, including a lot of weirdos. Do you want to play with me?" Green pondered for a moment, then tossed a controller in front of Maiden. "Our team just happens to be short of a tank for the dungeon."

"Online games?"

"Commander, please let me join your army." Maiden's eyes lit up, and he squeezed onto the sofa. "I'm also quite good at playing games."

————————Final Force————————

The Knights of the Round Table (Green) invited "Black Rose" to join the army.

Sai Ke Miao (Aikoshia): "Welcome newcomers~ So, rookie, who did you recruit into the army?"

Green: "A good friend of mine. Our regular team is currently short of a tank, so she should be a good fit."

Sai Ke Miao (Aikoshiya): "Newbie, I don't know why you always recommend playing tanks to new players. Is it because of the high health? But honestly, I think tanks are the hardest profession to play. Don't tell others that tanks are easy anymore~"

BOOM: "Stop talking so much, time is running out and the task is heavy, hurry up and play the game!"

BOOM: "Eat my Dark Devil's big fireball, BOOM, BOOM!"

T.Rony: "Uh-huh, there's a new member in the permanent team? My status in the team is going to drop again..."

Troni: "wwwwwwwqqqeehh1234"
