Arknights, but keeping Terra in captivity

but not.

Holhayya was at the meeting at that time, in front of the congressmen and in front of the President of Colombia.

No one would think that Holhaiya was polite.

Because there was blood on Holhaiya's snake tail, a big hole was smashed on the wall behind him. Outside the hole was a thing that could barely be recognized as a human figure.

One second, he slapped the person who had spoken rudely to the God away with his tail, and the next second, he gracefully said "Greetings" to others...

The speed at which her expression changed made everyone label Hol Haiya as a "crazy woman".

I don't know if he's crazy or not, but he's definitely not mentally normal.

Chapter 112 W’s frank and hearty…swearing.

Language is the bridge of human communication.

But because of this, changing just one word in a sentence can completely change the meaning it conveys.

What Chen Ran meant was to ask the Terrans about their attitudes and thoughts, which meant to [inquire].

But how the Demon Rabbits understood it and how they implemented it... Chen Ran didn't know.

After returning to Rhode Island, the two cats held a closed-door meeting.

[They both accurately conveyed God's will and allowed the operators to freely express their opinions and views]

"Huh? Just expressing an opinion? But why is our Demon Lord acting like, 'Now, pledge your loyalty, or I'll chop you down?'?" — This is a certain Sarkaz operator.

[The operators expressed their condolences to Operator Sarkaz]

[Everyone starts discussing]

[During this period, an operator raised a question——]

"What on earth does the God want to do?"

"Anyone with a discerning eye can see that ever since Kjerag pledged his loyalty, the gods have helped them climb the technological ladder, successfully bringing Kjerag, a backward native, to the threshold of interstellar civilization."

"Perhaps in time, Kjerag will be able to fly a spaceship, travel through space, and successfully ascend to a first-class civilization."

['For Kjerag, this is undoubtedly a reward from the gods for their loyalty.']

"But the question is, does the God need our loyalty? What can Kjerag give in return?"

"The God is like a charitable act, helping Kjerag advance his civilization... What is he trying to achieve?"

[These words caused silence among the operators.]

[The operators are thinking, wondering, and guessing.]

Until a certain Ms. W, who did not want to reveal her name, spoke up:

"Of course I'm just having fun. What else could I be after? For your three pieces of melon and two dates? Who the hell would want these pieces of junk?"

[This Ms. W, who is full of motherfuckers, is a new...er...new-old operator who recently joined Rhodes Island.]

Although W is illiterate, she has a quick mind.

When the Demon Rabbit descended, he told W, "Theresa is dead. In some world lines, I killed her myself."

After being heartbroken for a while, W suddenly came to his senses.

[W doesn't understand what a world line is, but he does understand the quantifier "some"]

Is it possible that the Demon Rabbit possesses the ability to travel between world lines at will, and in some of these world lines, there is a possibility that Theresa survived?

[Rabbit! Rabbit, take me! Take me to the world line where Theresa survives—]

With this hope, W wanted to find the Demon Rabbit, but he couldn't find it, so W had to settle for the next best thing and look for Amiya, who had a close relationship with the Demon Rabbit.

[And since Amiya belongs to Rhodes Island, then W naturally joins Rhodes Island as well.]

[W thought she was here to find out if Theresa was still alive, not to listen to these people's nonsense.]

If those two Kal'tsits hadn't put the entire Rhodes Granary Island under martial law upon their return, and W couldn't leave, she would have already run to Kazdel to find the Demon Rabbit.

[So now, W finally couldn't help but curse:]

"Just because someone else is a god, does that mean they have to be on the same level as a bunch of little animals like you?"

"I saw a bug on the road. It didn't run away, it squawked. The god thought it was funny, so he gave it a treat."

“When the insect saw this, it would just sit there and say, ‘Oh, why did he give me food? Is he trying to get something from me?’”

“Tutututu, tu your mothertu.”

"If you think we're interesting, give us a stutter. If you think we're boring, just stomp us to death."

"Other people are just having a blast. Stomping us to death is just a waste of time. Others are gods. Do you think gods lack time?"

[Operators: “…”]

In Terra, you can grab a homeless person from the street and he will give you a piece of life philosophy.

[W's rare, frank, and unrestrained... well... cursing style truly shocked the other operators, leaving them stunned.]

"Hahahahaha-"

Although it was a bit unethical, Chen Ran still laughed out loud when he saw the real-time notification in the translucent pop-up box.

"The meme of 'In a land full of riddlers, only W's foul mouth offers a glimmer of warmth' has finally been shone into reality."

"But is it a world line where Theresa survives?"

After Chen Ran finished laughing, he started mumbling to himself again.

Chen Ran also saw the reason why W rejoined Rhodes Island earlier than the original main storyline.

"Yes, there is a world line where Theresa survives."

"In that world line, Kal'tsit even ended up in jail."

After Chen Ran finished muttering, he caught a glimpse of Amiya, who was fidgeting on the table next to him. She immediately pricked up her rabbit ears, as if she wanted to hear what was going on.

Several gods' messengers came down to earth, and even Skadi was floating in front of the planet model and looking inside.

Only Amiya, who was neither a messenger of God nor able to fly, was left alone, like a left-behind child.

Seeing this, Chen Ran naturally spoke again: "But in that world line, it seems that the little rabbit Amiya only lived for about thirty years and then passed away? It's a pity."

In the corner of her eye, Amiya’s bunny ears drooped again.

"There's not only a world line where Theresa survives, but also a line where the Doctor joins the Reunion Movement, and even a line where Precious awakens early."

"But speaking of it, Kal'tsit appears in every world line, like the jailed cat, the lost cat, the demon cat..."

So Amiya, who was watching the show from a distance, pricked up her rabbit ears again.

This little rabbit is really simple-minded.

However, Chen Ran's child-like behavior soon ended.

Because the translucent pop-up window flashed before Chen Ran's eyes again:

[Your number of believers +1+1+1...]

[Your Faith Value +1 +1 +1 +1...]

[Rhodes Island (normal world line) has pledged its loyalty to you]

[You have gained control of the ship Rhodes Island (normal world line)]

[You will enjoy all the resources of Rhodes Island (normal world line)]

Please make your first decision

"Rhodes Island pledged its loyalty?"

Chen Ran turned his head and said, "It can't be that W's foul mouth really did the trick, right?"

Chapter 113 For the Sarkaz, being able to have enough food to eat is already happiness.

Same as Kjerag at that time.

After Rhodes Island pledged its allegiance, the entire ship was highlighted.

And when Chen Ran shifted his gaze to the ship on Rhodes Island, the population, resources, and happiness level were all marked out one by one.

but--

Education level: 99%

When Chen Ran saw this data, his subconscious reaction was: "99%? This remaining 1%, could it be referring to W? Okay, just kidding."

Saying that W is illiterate is mostly a joke and a meme.

Because compared to the Sarkaz who all failed prenatal education, W can recognize words and can play with her bombs in a variety of ways, so she is actually considered to be cultured... well, not much though.

So compared to this, Chen Ran was more curious about another piece of data:

Loyalty: 99%

"99% again? Kjerag's initial loyalty was 99%. It could be argued that SilverAsh and First Snow, who neither respect nor believe in the gods, probably lowered it."

Chen Ran stroked his chin and said, "What about Rhodes Island? Who is the remaining 1%? It's really hard to guess."

【…】

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Chen Ran looked up at the translucent pop-up window that hadn't displayed any new content in a while, and asked, "So what about the previous real-time notification? Was it W's foul mouth that was the real culprit?"

【…】

[Although W's words may sound harsh, the truth is simple and easy to understand]

[Nearly 90% of the operators who can go to the island are infected]

[In this land, once infected with mineral sickness, it is equivalent to being deprived of human rights and sentenced to death]

[Nowadays, oripathy is considered a terminal illness. When infected with oripathy, their lives have already entered a countdown.]

[W is right. What could the gods possibly want from them?]

[They are all dying soon, do we still need to care about this? ]

"So it really was W who made the great contribution?"

Chen Ran understood.

The reason why those operators are loyal to Rhodes Island is because Rhodes Island treats them as human beings.

The reason why the Integration Movement was able to gain widespread support is actually similar to this.

"Then it really doesn't have to be so troublesome?"

Chen Ran muttered, "If I can just rub out the antidote to the mineral sickness, I can instantly gain the loyalty of all the infected people?"

And the ideas of these operators are actually not a minority.

[Your number of believers +1+1+1...]

[Your Faith Value +1 +1 +1 +1...]

[Kazdel (normal world line) has pledged his loyalty to you]

“Kazdel?”

Seeing the translucent pop-up box flashing again, Chen Ran's attention was successfully attracted.

After all, although Chen Ran really wanted to say that the Demon Rabbit had successfully completed the task, but...

"How did you, little bunny, fight...oh, did you convince Mr. Da Te?"

Chen Ran was slightly curious.

But when the Kazdel area was successfully lit up and various values ​​were imprinted in Chen Ran's eyes——

[Kazdel's average happiness: <1%]

【Kazdel Overall Loyalty: 51%】

"Oh I got it."
