Arknights, Suika's Messenger Journey

This is also beneficial to your purchasing plan.

As soon as she stood up, she couldn't help but sway.

When she lowered her head, Inam realized that she had been holding a wine bowl in her hand.

She couldn't help but widen her eyes

"How could I..."

Suika blinked, looked at her with an innocent face, and smiled foolishly.

Chapter 548: Approaching the Desert

"never mind…"

After drinking the wine in the bowl, Inam passed the bowl to the person next to him who had been eager to try it, and said

"I'm going to take care of business. You stay calm...Okay, now that you've dealt with the old chief, the others won't be too hostile to you. But I hope that when the old chief wakes up tomorrow, he won't come after us with a spear in hand. Understand?"

Suika nodded obediently.

Then she said with a silly look on her face that she was just an alcoholic and just wanted to treat people to drinks, and she knew nothing else.

Inam couldn't say anything to her about this.

The next morning, the group chose to leave early.

When the old chief woke up at noon, he sighed when he learned that Inam and his party had left.

He did want to cause trouble yesterday, so he went to the other party's camp.

But he didn't expect that the little girl on the other side was so capable that she made him look so ugly without realizing it.

Thinking of this, he decided to give up the pursuit.

After all, according to the news from his subordinates, the people in the tribe thought that they had forgiven the unreasonableness of the Inam caravan and even held a small banquet together last night.

Taking people to chase the other party now will definitely make the tribe members feel a little strange.

Thinking of his appearance yesterday, the old man didn't want to get up for a moment.

After all, that image is too socially dead.

At this moment, he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be something at the head of the bed.

I picked it up and saw that it was a photo.

In the photo, he is sitting next to the fire, holding a bowl of wine in his hand and looking at the fire with tears in his eyes. Behind him are the worried eyes of his tribesmen.

Looking at the photo, the old chief was lost in thought, and tears in his eyes flowed again inadvertently.

Even though I lost my loved ones, how can these children in the tribe not be considered my relatives...

There is a line of tiny words written on the back of the photo

"O setting sun that shines upon the earth, your people love you dearly!"

The old chief wiped away the tears from his eyes

"Hmph, you little bastard, you know nothing..."

He stood up and walked out the door, and everyone who saw him greeted him with respect.

He would smile and nod at it as usual.

It seemed as if nothing had changed, except that the rule in the tribe that prohibited the use of technological items and the reading of books from the outside world had been lifted.

On the other side, after walking for a day and finding that no one was chasing them, Inam finally felt relieved.

Suika looked calm

"What are you afraid of? I don't think that old man is a bad person. He just has a bad temper in his heart.

After crying yesterday, the anger almost dissipated."

“You don’t know the old chief’s position in Akahura.

Let me tell you, if he had spoken up about what happened with Jia Weier, he might not have had to leave."

A hint of regret flashed in Inam's eyes.

"But if it weren't for this, I wouldn't have the chance to come here, right!"

Inam nodded at Suika's words.

Indeed, if Gavial and she were not colleagues, she would not have come to Akahura to deliver the letter.

None of us would trust her.

“By the way, I’m curious how you got that old chief to drink.

As far as I know, this is the oldest chief in Akahula since the previous chief stepped down.

Even during past inter-tribal negotiations and meetings, he never touched a drop of alcohol."

Inam couldn't help but look strange when he thought of the old chief's appearance after drinking yesterday.

Suika picked a fruit from a tree not far away, split it open, dug out the flesh, and then, with Inam's puzzled eyes, picked up the Ibuki gourd and poured a bowl of wine into it.

"Well, that's it..."

By the time Inam reacted, the fruit bowl filled with wine had already appeared in her hands, and only half of the wine was left in it.

She couldn't help but widen her eyes

"when!"

Suika stopped talking, pinched the bump on her head, then smiled and picked up Ibuki's ladle and started to play with it.

"Okay, but you have so many weird Originium skills."

Seeing that Suixiang didn't say anything, Inam stopped asking.

A week later, on the border of Akahura

“I think you’d be better off going to Columbia.

Now it is about to enter summer.

If you go to the desert at this time, there will be nothing fun to do except being scorching hot."

Suika raised her Ibuki

“The two most dangerous things in the desert are heat and lack of water.

It just so happens that I am not afraid of high temperatures, and I have plenty of water to drink...

Don't worry, I'm just taking a stroll and won't go too deep. After all, I still have time to go to Xiosta."

"Xiosta, I've heard it's a nice place, but unfortunately I've never had the chance to see it." Inam sighed.

"Even after sending you a thousand miles away, there will always be a farewell. Yinam, you have your own things to do, so there is no need to continue to send me off."

After saying goodbye to Inam, Suixiang walked into the desert under her gaze.

"This Sargon's gap is really huge!"

Less than a day after coming out of the rainforest, Suixiang sighed.

How far can you walk in a day?

It's about 30 kilometers.

Suika was in semi-flying mode, going a bit faster, but she would stop to take photos and check in when she saw interesting scenery along the way, so the distance was about forty to fifty kilometers.

So in just 50 kilometers, Suixiang walked from the rainforest to the desert.

Going further, you will see the terrifying Sargon Desert.

In the middle of the night, sitting on a piece of sand.

Suika picked up Ibuki's ladle and subconsciously wanted to pour wine for the person next to her, but suddenly realized that she was no longer in the rain forest.

Thinking of the Adaklesians in the rain forest, Suika pinched her nose.

Although these guys are not good-looking, they are optimistic and simple.

Even though he was drunk by Suika the day before, he was still clamoring to challenge her the next day.

Although they were a little noisy, Suika still quite liked this group of optimistic and cheerful friends.

Just as Suixiang was reminiscing, Shanghai floated in front of her, stretched out his little hand and touched her head.

"Oh my, I'm not so fragile that I need comforting.

It was just so lively yesterday, but today there’s only one person left, so it felt a bit disappointing.”

Suika stood up and stretched, then walked to a pond not far away.

She snapped her fingers and the instrument appeared from thin air.

Accompanied by the melodious sound of the piano, a song "Lonely Pilgrimage" was played between the moon and sky.

Suika looked down at the two moons in the water and her own reflection and raised her glass.

"I raise my cup to the bright moon, and my shadow and I become three..."

The next morning, Suika was awakened by a gust of sand.

"Ah, ugh! I'm already eating a mouthful of sand before I even reach the desert. The Sargon Desert is indeed worthy of its reputation..."

Chapter 549 Emergency Rescue

Suika was very curious as she walked towards the desert with the camera.

After all, in her previous life, whether it was the Sahara or a certain Middle Eastern region, she had only heard of these places but had never had the chance to see them.

This time I got to experience the environment myself, so of course I had to appreciate it.

But it didn't take long for Suika to regret it.

If you talk about the sea, it is all water.

Then the desert would be all sand.

After walking for two days, Suika didn't see anyone except for a mouth full of sand.

The novelty of seeing the desert for the first time was soon overwhelmed by the fact that there was a sea of sand on one mountain after another, and after walking for half a day, the desert under my feet looked almost the same.

Seeing this, Suixiang turned around and headed north without any reluctance.

After all, she came here to travel and enjoy the scenery.

But there really isn't much scenery to admire in this desert.

At this moment, there was a vibration from her bag.

Suika looked at Shanghai flying beside her in confusion.

"You secretly bought a vibrator and put it in my bag?"

Then Shanghai kicked him in the head.

After a few commotions, she reached for her shoulder bag and pulled out a black thing from it - the Rhodes Island-specific emergency communicator that Blade Master had given her when she left Rhodes Island.

This thing can be said to be the most powerful communication equipment Rhodes Island currently has.

As an emergency communicator, its rescue range is particularly wide.

For example, now, the distress signal received by Suixiang came from the vicinity of the Dukedom of Victoria Godottin and the Territory of Columbia, thousands of kilometers away.

Less than a hundred kilometers below the distress signal is Xiosta, Suika's destination this time.

There's nothing to do here anyway. If I go to Colombia, I'll have to go there again after Xiosta is over. Wouldn't it be a repetition to go back and forth?

So she simply headed straight towards the direction where the distress signal came from.

However, she estimated the distance and figured that unless she increased her speed silently, it would take at least a week to get there based on her usual schedule.

If the other party really encounters a very dangerous situation, my speed will most likely catch up with the last wave of the first seven.

But the location and timing were too delicate.

According to Suika's image, Blademaster will probably arrive in Xiosta with a large number of operators to participate in Xiosta's music festival in the near future.

(This plot should be said to be the one with the most operators in all the non-main plots of Ark (excluding a passing tourist Holiday Dragon Chen))

According to Old Lynx's personality, she would not let Blade Master act alone with a group of people who knew nothing about Blade Master without the accompaniment of elite operators.
