Arknights, Suika's Messenger Journey

After saying that, the three of them looked at Suika

"I'm sorry, I was so excited that I forgot about you.

I'm Charlotte, this is Diamond, and this is Ragdoll." Baoxing introduced them to Suika.

Suixiang smiled and greeted the three people, then handed her Rhodes Island ID to the puppet beside her.

"Just call me Suika."

Suika was also happy to see Charlotte so happy.

"Wow, you are an elite operator!" After opening Suika's ID, the puppet with the elite operator's logo shouted in shock.

"Elite Operator!"

The other two also looked at the girl in front of them who looked less than fifteen years old in shock.

Although they were only field agents, and were stationed there for a long time, they were not unfamiliar with the structure of Rhodes Island.

Elite operators are already the highest-ranking personnel in Rhodes Island.

In the entire Rhodes Island, except for Amiya and Kal'tsit, no one else is qualified to dispatch elite operators (they don't know about Blademaster Tower yet).

In Rhodes Island's biography, every elite operator has the ability to change the course of a battle.

Moreover, they have all seen some elite operators and know how powerful they are.

But the girl in front of him looked harmless no matter how he looked at her. Apart from her exaggerated pair of horns and the doll riding on her head, he could not associate her with the word "elite operator" no matter how he looked at her.

"Don't underestimate me! I came here from Rhodes Island all by myself, crossing Kazdel and Rembila!"

Noticing the strange looks in the three people's eyes, Cuixiang calmly raised the wine gourd and took a sip, feeling a little sad in her heart.

Although being young can cause the enemy to misjudge one's strength, it can also cause unfamiliar companions to misjudge one's strength.

After hearing what Suika said, the three people's expressions gradually changed.

As someone who can walk from Rhodes Island to Iron Carrot City alone, even if she is not an elite operator, at least her strength and ability to survive in the wild are top-notch.

For such people, one's doubts can be considered quite an offense.

"Sorry!" Charlotte took the initiative to speak.

"No need to apologize, after all, my appearance is indeed misleading, but this is exactly my purpose.

When no one thinks I'm strong, no one will notice my existence, and I can do my job better."

After giving the three of them a brief explanation, Suika sat down next to the stove and took out the wine jug.

"Are you drinking?"

Hearing Suika's words, the three shook their heads.

"According to the appointment, an infected person will come for consultation soon. Alcohol will affect my judgment." The woman named Puppet said.

The other iron drill smiled innocently.

"I have a very low alcohol tolerance and tend to get drunk easily. Last time, I almost broke some medical equipment. Since then, the Muppet team has not allowed me to drink during work hours."

Chapter 488: Minor Trouble at the Office

Seeing that they didn't want to drink, Cuixiang didn't persuade them and just drank by herself.

The four of them were chatting around the fireplace.

Mainly, Charlotte asked about the situation of Blade Master Tower.

Especially after knowing that Suika also participated in the rescue of Chernobog.

Suixiang recounted the battle of Kiri Castle, but left her own story vague.

After all, it's quite embarrassing to tell strangers how awesome you are.

After listening to it, Charlotte felt that some details seemed to be missing, but she didn't care.

Because her attention was all on Amiya and Blademaster.

After learning that the two had returned safely, Suika saw tears of excitement in the corners of her eyes.

Tiezuan also pointed out that the armband that Cuixiang wore was the symbol of the Messenger of Scourge, in addition to the one worn by Rhodes Island.

"Yes, I am indeed a messenger of natural disasters.

Isn’t this just about traveling around the world and broadening your horizons? "

Suixiang spread her hands and said proudly.

The three of them also exclaimed at the right time.

Although Scourge Couriers are not as rare as Elite Operators, most of them are experienced wilderness survival experts and meteorologists.

The learning environment in Terra is not very good.

Under the pressure of life and survival, most people's learning level is only around junior high school or high school.

Therefore, it can be said that each of the Scourge Messengers is an outstanding human elite.

At Suika's age, she was able to obtain the dual identities of Rhodes Island's elite operator and Scourge Messenger, which made the three of them feel a little ashamed.

Just then the phone in the office rang.

Charlotte frowned after answering the phone, sat back on the stool, sighed, and said to the other two that the logistics company that had just undertaken the delivery said that their order was difficult to deliver and the other party wanted to increase the price.

"Damn it, these guys are just taking advantage of the situation."

Tie Zuan said angrily.

"It seems you are in trouble, tell me.

Maybe I can help you figure out a solution.”

Suixiang spoke up when she saw that the three of them looked worried.

Charlotte thought for a moment before telling the whole story.

News of Rhodes Island's new, inexpensive, and effective blocking agent spread quickly.

After hearing the news, many organizations contacted Rhodes Island, hoping to purchase this potion from Rhodes Island.

Rhodes Island agreed to part of it after screening.

This time, the incident happened with a batch of medicines that were about to be sent to a mine.

You know, although Originium blockers are not expensive, Rhodes Island's production capacity is ultimately limited.

And even though Rhodes Island has lowered the price of blockers to the lowest level, there are still infected people who cannot afford the medicine.

Therefore, under the instigation of people with ulterior motives, some infected people robbed the blocking drugs.

In order to avoid this situation, Rhodes Island usually chooses to send potions secretly.

In this way, others don’t know which logistics and which box the medicine is in, and they cannot make targeted preparations.

But for some reason, the news was exposed after the batch of drugs arrived at the office.

You know, RIM Billiton is a country with a very large number of infected people.

When people learned that Rhodes Island had a batch of very effective Originium blockers, many people became interested.

The logistics company that Charlotte and her colleagues had previously worked with said that they could deliver the goods, but they demanded a price increase of five to ten times.

However, Rhodes Island already sells these potions at low prices, so it doesn't make much money. If it were to pay such high logistics fees, then not only would it not make any profit, it would even have to pay out of pocket.

Charlotte and the others naturally refused to do so, and the two sides reached a stalemate.

"Then why don't you find the mine manager and ask him to arrange for the transportation of this batch of chemicals?"

Cuixiang was very surprised. This matter seemed very risky, but the risk could be transferred to the mine.

After all, Rhodes Island's own logistics are definitely trustworthy.

If the news were to be leaked, she thought there was a high probability that something had gone wrong at the mine.

In this case, let the miners bear these risks themselves.

After all, although Suika is a good person, she is not a saint.

In such a situation full of doubts, one will naturally choose the option that is beneficial to one's own side.

“Who said there isn’t one? But the person who ordered this batch of medicine was the doctor at the mine, but he became an infected person due to an accident not long ago.

The mine management stated that the chemicals were not ordered from their partners and that their personnel would not be responsible for the transportation.

Charlotte slammed the table angrily when she said this.

This kind of thing is actually not uncommon, and most mines have their own partners for source stone blockers.

The other party buys chemicals from partners at low prices and sells them to miners at high prices. In this way, the money that the workers work hard to earn ends up in the hands of the mine managers.

What this doctor did was to cut off the management's source of income, so the other party would naturally not be willing to help.

Or maybe he was the one who caused the drug exposure this time.

After listening to the explanations of the other two, Suixiang finally understood all the ins and outs.

"Since we're here and have encountered this problem, leave it to me."

Suika said upon seeing this.

"No, it's too dangerous."

Even though Suika is an elite operator, she is only one person.

Based on what Charlotte has discovered in the past few days, there are at least five organizations outside targeting Rhodes Island.

In this situation, letting Suixiang deliver the medicine alone is tantamount to sending herself to death.

In her opinion, Suika's ability to become an elite operator is probably related to her identity as a Scourge Messenger, which means that she is a scholar-type operator.

In addition, when they were talking about the Kiri Castle incident just now, Suika deliberately did not mention the crucial role she played in it, which made the three of them even more convinced that their ideas were correct.

"But I'm really strong!"

Suika was not angry, after all, the other party really cared about her, so she patiently explained

"It's true that some of Rhodes Island's elite operators aren't very good at combat. But I'm different. Combat is exactly what I'm best at."

Suika pointed to her head and continued

"Well, do you know the logos of elite operators?"

The three nodded. Logos had been here before to carry out a mission, and the three had the honor of coming into contact with him. His strength and nonchalant attitude in the face of danger were still fresh in their memory.

"Logos has never won a one-on-one fight against me.

He wasn't holding back or letting the opponent win, but he was defeated badly every time."

Seeing the three people's disbelief, Suixiang pointed to the backyard and said

"Since the patient hasn't arrived yet, why don't we practice in the backyard? Don't worry, I'll hold back."

Seeing Suixiang's insistence, Tiezuan stood up with a smile and said that he would give it a try.

Then he took a shield and a one-handed hammer from the wall not far away.

"Your moves look so familiar, have you learned them from Brother ACE?"

Suika's eyes lit up when she saw the other person's actions.

"Yes, I was in Captain ACE's team for a while." After hearing what Suixiang said, Tiezuan answered while raising his shield vigilantly.

Chapter 489 Before Leaving

"Very good, very energetic!" Looking at the iron drill who was walking slowly towards her with a large shield in hand and a serious look on his face, Suixiang nodded with satisfaction.

Then he calmly clenched his fists.

When the opponent is about to reach the attack distance, suddenly take a step forward

"A punch that's meant to be used with all your strength!"

……

Half an hour later, Zuan finally woke up to the worried gazes of Brutality and Doll and the apologetic look of Suika.

What just happened?

He tried to recall, but his memory was blurry.
