Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

Within this makeshift camp, many people, clearly just ordinary citizens, were going about their daily lives.

Some people set up stalls on the street, some cooked over fires in front of their tents, and others gathered in twos and threes to chat.

Logos frowned immediately.

A camp of this size would probably require relocating the entire population of an entire city.

Logos glanced at the date on the car's digital clock and confirmed that he had not experienced a time travel event.

But this only confused him more.

Two days ago, he was passing through a town when his terminal connected to the signal and he discovered that Qi Yan was hosting some kind of "The Voice" program in Viseheim, so he immediately set off to come over.

At that time, Viseheim was still bustling with activity, and nothing unexpected happened.

Logos couldn't figure it out, so he stopped wasting his brain cells, parked his car outside the campsite, walked into the campsite, and stopped someone.

"Madam, is this Viseheim?" Logos asked softly. "Could you please explain why there's such a large camp here all of a sudden?"

The middle-aged woman who was stopped was so shocked by Logos's excessively handsome face that she almost lost her mind.

She didn't even notice the horns on Logos' head that were clearly a Sarkaz feature, and instead, with utmost enthusiasm, explained in detail:

"It is indeed Viseheim ahead, but you must not go there now, as a natural disaster has struck there."

It's all the fault of Viseheim's disaster messengers for not doing their job properly; they only issued an emergency notice to evacuate when the disaster was already in our faces.

We had only been evacuating yesterday when the natural disaster struck. It was incredibly powerful; we could hear it even from here!

"Thank you for your answer, beautiful lady."

Logos smiled gently, thanked him, and turned to get back into his car.

When the middle-aged woman saw Logos' smile, she became lightheaded and, despite being in her forties or fifties, started walking with a cat-like gait.

Chapter 324 The Time to Show Off Acting Skills Has Arrived

Logos returned to the car, his face devoid of any smile.

There's something very strange about Viseheim!

Even if a natural disaster is already imminent, the best solution is still to activate the mobile city-state and escape to the area outside the disaster zone.

Unless the person who gave this order was drunk, it is impossible for a natural disaster to be imminent, and for people to be evacuated from the city instead.

"Could it be that Qi Yan has caused a disturbance in the city?"

Logos' primary suspect is Qi Yan himself.

After a moment's hesitation, Logos decided to play along and investigate the truth by following the lies told by the Viseheim government.

The off-road vehicle started up again and slowly entered the camp area, gradually approaching Viseheim.

When he drove the car to the camp near the border of Viseheim, a defensive line set up by the military police appeared in front of him.

The military police noticed Logos' car and immediately sent one officer to stop it.

"Sir, there has been a natural disaster ahead. Please do not continue."

"I came here specifically because of the natural disaster."

Logos casually pulled out a card and handed it to the military police member: "I'm from the Crisis Contract team. I came here to investigate after learning about the sudden and unexpected natural disaster that has occurred here."

The military police officer stared intently at the card.

Even though the card only had two simple characters on it, which he couldn't even understand, the characters revealed a strange power that altered his perception.

He readily believed Logos's words and respectfully replied:

"It turns out to be the messenger of the Crisis Contract. Please wait a moment, I will immediately report your request to my superiors."

After bowing respectfully, he hurried across the defensive line to report to the Queen's Voice stationed behind.

And the voice of the Queen that is stationed here today is none other than Begler, who was depressed after Murphy's apparent demotion but in reality promotion.

"Someone from the Crisis Contract?!"

Upon hearing the report from the military police, Begler was immediately thrown into a panic.

He knew about the Crisis Contract organization.

Natural disasters are ubiquitous on this land, which gave rise to the very important profession of Disaster Messenger.

Crisis Contract is an organization established by a group of natural disaster messengers. They have a very low profile and neither expand their organization nor seek power or profit. They only want to cause natural disasters.

Everyone else avoids natural disasters, but these crazy guys from the Crisis Contract are always chasing after them.

If it were a normal day, and someone from a crisis contract came to visit, Begler would definitely welcome them with open arms.

After all, although these guys are a bit crazy, their ability to study natural disasters is truly unparalleled, and their actions have a philanthropic aspect, benefiting all living beings on this land.

The problem is, no natural disaster occurred in Viseheim!

The Gemini Queens also explicitly forbade the matter here from being exposed.

The people in the Crisis Contract are all disaster experts, not those clueless military police. Once they enter Viseheim, the truth will definitely not be hidden.

Begler was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.

The military police officer who came to report was unaware of the facts and asked in confusion, "It's a good thing that the people from the Crisis Contract are here to help. With them around, they can record the information about the natural disaster in detail and prevent this from happening again."

"You don't know anything!" Begler glared at him.

The military police member shrank back, not daring to say another word.

Begler paced back and forth twice, unable to come up with a solution, then made a snap decision:

"Go and appease that person for now, I'll figure out a way to resolve this."

After giving that briefing, Begler turned and headed deeper into the defensive line closer to Viseheim.

He couldn't solve this problem himself, so he had to consult the Gemini Queen, who hadn't yet left.

Logos, waiting outside the defensive line, was unaware that his casual lie was being reported up the chain of command and was being handed over to the Gemini Queen for personal handling.

He learned from the returning military police officer that he would have to wait a while, but he didn't mind and focused on fiddling with the terminal in the car.

He then discovered another suspicious point.

Normally, after a natural disaster, various local signals would be affected, but in this case, his terminal signal was still connected.

Once the terminal connected to the network, a message from Kal'tsit popped up immediately.

"W is coming to Letania too?" Logos frowned slightly. "This woman is no less docile than Qi Yan. She wants me to go to Wolumonde to meet her. Qi Yan's next destination is there, which is quite far."

With a sigh, Logos put away his terminal, deciding to first find out the situation in Viseheim before heading to Wolumonde.

After some time, a middle-aged man who looked like a minor leader finally emerged from inside the defensive line, wearing Logos and entering the line.

Begler smiled broadly. Although somewhat surprised by Logos Sarkaz's identity, he didn't ask any further questions and simply introduced him:

"The situation regarding the natural disaster here is somewhat complicated. I will have my supervisor contact you to explain the situation. Please understand."

Logos, maintaining his false identity, nodded and said:

"It is precisely because the situation is complex that I am even more determined to conduct a thorough investigation, which is of great help to our analysis of natural disasters in the crisis contract."

Begler nodded repeatedly and walked with Logos to a makeshift hut.

At Begler's prompting, Logos pushed open the door and entered alone, immediately spotting a blonde woman sitting inside.

He was stunned on the spot.

With his knowledge, he could naturally recognize the White Queen's identity and see the injuries she was concealing!

In a flash, Logos delivered an answer that chilled him to the bone.

Qi Yan, beat up one of the Gemini Queens!

"Hello, beautiful lady, I am L, the messenger of the Cataclysm from the Crisis Contract."

Logos put on the best acting he'd ever done, desperately trying to control his facial expressions and maintain his fake identity.

"Mr. L, you're too kind."

The White Queen smiled elegantly, looking at the handsome man before her, a man so beautiful that she felt a little jealous, but something seemed off.

However, she did not investigate further.

The most important thing right now is to keep the truth hidden!

This will truly test her acting skills!

"Mr. L, to be honest, we cannot let you investigate the natural disaster we encountered this time," the White Queen said earnestly, her voice deep. "Because there are many suspicious points in this natural disaster, and it even involves Lady Gertrude, the lord who died in the disaster."

That's all I can say. I hope Mr. L will give me, the temporary person in charge, some face.

Or, Mr. L, you could rest here for a few days, and then we can discuss this further after a leader with more power than me comes down from above. How about that?

Logos' lips twitched slightly, almost imperceptibly.

Temporary leader? A leader with more power than you?

Even if the Elector came, theoretically he could only be on equal footing with you!

Logos struggled to maintain his acting skills, his mind racing with ideas, until finally, a brilliant idea struck him:

"I see. Then I can only say that I'm sorry to have bothered you, I can't stay here any longer."

Because I received a message from my companion informing me that another location might be threatened by a natural disaster, I needed to get there immediately.

The White Queen's heart stirred slightly, and driven by a woman's intuition, she spoke:

"Mr. L, is the place you mentioned Wolumonde in Letania?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Logos' eyes.

Although he did not answer, his reaction did not escape the White Queen's notice.

The White Queen took a deep breath, realizing she needed to continue her acting prowess and prevent these guys from the crisis contract from witnessing Qi Yan's mischief.

Otherwise, with the two factors combined, the situation in Viseheim will likely become unmanageable.

Logos's thoughts also began to race.

He didn't know how the White Queen knew about Qi Yan's next move, but he felt it was his duty to prevent the two sides from meeting!

Chapter 325 It was a misunderstanding, but Iberia was the one who suffered.

Qi Yan will appear in Wolumonde.

This was a message from Kal'tsit. Logos didn't know if the message was accurate, but he had to make arrangements based on it.

Qi Yan currently harbors a grudge against the Gemini Empresses.

Logos witnessed this firsthand, and he had to prevent the two from meeting again, directly or indirectly, otherwise another conflict would inevitably ensue.

Logos quickly organized his thoughts in his mind, and a plan slowly took shape.

The Cataclysm Messenger in the Crisis Contract will always chase after the Cataclysm.

This is the universally acknowledged code of conduct on this land, and the White Queen would not question it.

Once Qi Yan arrives in Wolumonde, he will most likely cause something even more outrageous than a natural disaster.

This was the future that the White Queen was absolutely certain of. She had to find Qi Yan first, explain the pros and cons, and reassure him in time to prevent him from being exposed to the people involved in the crisis contract.

Being beaten up on one's own turf is humiliating enough; the White Queen is unwilling to make this a public spectacle.

The White Queen quickly organized her thoughts in her mind, and a plan slowly took shape.

"Let me and your men go to Wolumonde together."

"Let's go to Wolumonde together."

Logos and the White Queen extended their invitations almost simultaneously.

After the words were spoken, the two looked at each other, their minds racing with thoughts.

“Um… sir, don’t you need to be stationed in Viseheim?” Logos asked.

"I am one of the captains of the Queen's Voice, codenamed White." Queen White revealed her false identity and said with a serious face, "My leader will be here soon, and I can leave at any time."

Fortunately, this place is far from Wolumonde, requiring traversing vast wilderness, which is extremely dangerous. With Mr. L here, at least I can avoid encountering natural disasters.
