Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

"Don't worry about it, I'm in great shape right now, almost too good."

ACE didn't quite understand.

His eyes, hidden behind his sunglasses, were fixed on the Lupo boy before him.

Those golden eyes, devoid of fear or joy, remained calm and undisturbed, a stark contrast to the slightly trembling body.

Amiya also noticed Qi Yan's unusual behavior at this moment.

Just as she was about to ask, Qi Yan and his sister and ACE suddenly turned their heads and looked in another direction in the park.

"What a lively park! Are you having a rat meeting?"

A gray-white figure slowly appeared before everyone's eyes.

A large number of Reunion Movement members followed behind that figure and quickly surrounded the Rhodes Island team.

"Enemy attack! Prepare for battle!"

ACE let out a low shout, temporarily suppressing his confusion, and raised his shield to stand in front of Amiya and the others.

Rhodes Island's operators reacted quickly. The melee operators responsible for close combat surrounded the students, while the sniper and caster operators, armed with bows and staves, concealed themselves, ready to strike at any moment.

Lyudmila, her hands bound, mingled among the Rhodes Island team. Upon seeing the newcomer, a flash of disgust crossed her eyes, and she chose to remain silent.

Qi Yan did not take any action; he silently watched Mephistopheles, his mood becoming somewhat irritable.

As the natural disaster loomed, his condition was steadily deteriorating, causing a flood of chaotic and disorganized information to rush into his mind.

Suddenly hearing Mephistopheles' hoarse voice again, Qi Yan felt as if he were in an empty classroom, with a sharp claw frantically scratching at the blackboard.

"Haha, don't be nervous, little mice."

Mephistopheles, completely unaware of the impending danger, slowly opened his arms, grinned, and laughed loudly:

"Let's play a game, a sacrificial competition."

Doberman gripped his long whip tightly, his face contorted with disgust.

"We don't have time to waste with a child like you who isn't even mentally complete."

As she spoke, she subtly signaled to Amiya beside her to take action.

A burning crimson signal flare shot high into the sky with a piercing whistle.

Mephistopheles looked somewhat angry when he saw the signal flare.

He disliked any flaws in his plans, and he loathed anything that was out of his control.

Just like the situation at Peterheim High School.

At this time, the two teams he despised were united.

Mephistopheles was furious, but even more so, he was excited.

His body trembled, and he burst into loud laughter:

“You didn’t want to play games with me, but now you don’t have the choice.”

My men will keep attacking. If you can hold out, you win; if you lose, you die. The rules are simple, right?

"Mephisto, shut up."

Qi Yan covered his ears, his expression showing some pain.

At that moment, he suddenly understood why Qi Lin would become agitated when he spoke loudly.

Two hands are simply not enough to cover four ears!

Mephistopheles looked at Qi Yan with a bewildered expression, puzzled:

You seem to be in a lot of pain. Are you scared?

Qi Yan's breathing was somewhat disordered, his golden pupils locked onto Mephisto, and he gritted his teeth as he said:

"From now on, if you dare to utter another word, I will shut you up forever."

Amiya, ACE, and the others stared at him in surprise, not understanding why Qi Yan was so frantically provoking his opponent at this moment.

Only Qi Lin took a few steps back to avoid being accidentally injured.

Mephistopheles was equally puzzled; the corners of his mouth gradually turned up, revealing an exaggeratedly eerie smile:

The next second, Qi Yan's figure suddenly disappeared.

ACE's pupils contracted to a point behind his sunglasses, barely catching a trace, and he looked in the direction of Mephisto.

There, two white-haired boys stood facing each other.

The silver-haired boy grabbed the gray-haired boy with one hand, their faces very close together.

Mephistopheles' smile didn't even have time to fade.

"I hate your voice, and I hate your smile even more." Qi Yan's golden pupils seemed to be burning, the corners of his mouth turned up, his tone gentle yet tinged with suppressed anger, "From now on, whenever I appear in front of you, you are not allowed to smile again, understand?"

Mephistopheles' smile froze on his face, his complexion turning purple at a visible speed as he tried to struggle free from Qi Yan's grasp.

But those hands, which didn't seem very strong, were like iron clamps, holding him firmly in place.

Mephistopheles' eyes darted to one side, revealing a pleading look.

ACE seemed to sense something, his expression changed drastically, and he shouted:

"Mr. Qi Yan, watch out!"

An arrow gleaming with purple light shot out from a distant building, heading straight for Qi Yan's head.

The arrow was so fast that many Rhodes Island operators couldn't even see it clearly; all they could see was a purple shadow flashing past.

Until the purple shadow stopped in front of Qi Yan's forehead.

On the arrow shaft, a light representing some kind of Originium Arts flickered faintly.

The whistling sound of an arrow cutting through the air appeared in the park belatedly, as if there was a network delay.

Qi Yan grabbed Mephisto with one hand and held the purple arrow with the other, the sound of the arrow piercing the air filling his ears without reservation.

"I, Faust of Yan Kingdom, the one who utters the most vulgar language!"

Qi Yan turned his head, twirled the tip of the purple arrow in his hand, and flung it out.

The arrow flew out like a cannonball, accompanied by a deafening explosion, and crashed straight into the building from which it had been launched. Its momentum continued unabated, piercing through the entire building before disappearing into the horizon.

The entire park fell into a deathly silence.

Mephistopheles' eyes bulged as he stared intently at the crumbling building. Through the huge hole, he could even see what was behind it.

But he couldn't see the figure he wanted.

Even with his throat being choked, Mephistopheles struggled to open his mouth wide and let out a silent roar, gripping Qi Yan's arm as if insane.

Tears welled up in his eyes.

Qi Yan shook his head, and his wolf ears twitched slightly.

After venting his anger, his irritable mood finally calmed down.

More importantly, Mephisto finally stopped making those strange noises.

"That guy with scales on his face isn't dead."

Qi Yan's words made Mephisto pause in his struggle, and his eyes regained their sparkle.

Qi Yan flung him to the ground, stomped on his chest, bent down and threatened:

"But if you speak again, I will kill you without mercy. I'm not sure if that guy will lose his mind and come to his death then."

Mephistopheles clutched his neck, gasping for breath, his eyes filled with fear as he looked at Qi Yan.

He wanted to cough, but remembering Qi Yan's threat, he forced himself to hold it in.

The people of Rhodes Island watched everything silently, suddenly feeling somewhat at a loss.

In the group, Sonia gently rubbed Anna's arm and whispered:

"I'll assume for now that we're the good guys, and the Reunion Movement is the one full of ruthless thugs."

But why does Qi Yan seem more like the villain in a story now?

Anna gently adjusted her glasses, a smile playing on her lips:

"He is a great demon king, a great demon king sent by heaven to protect us."

Chapter 032 I didn't dare say a word!

"Little Bear Mom, I can hear you."

Qi Yan suddenly turned to look at Anna and said irritably, "You can call me Angel Brother, Hero Brother, or just call me Husband, I'll accept any of them, except for this weird title, Great Demon King."

Anna covered her mouth, a hint of embarrassment and annoyance on her face.

Calling someone "brother" is already outrageous enough, but calling them "husband" is just ridiculous.

Natalia glanced thoughtfully at the disheveled Mephistopheles, then at Anna, whose face was flushed red from being teased.

So, is this jerk a voice-dependent person?

Seeing that Qi Yan had calmed down and even had the energy to joke again, the others felt inexplicably relieved.

Even though she knew Qi Yan was on her side, the oppressive aura he exuded just now was terrifying.

ACE glanced at Anna and vaguely guessed the real reason for Qi Yan's anger.

He lowered his voice and said to Amiya:

"Don't let your guard down. The Unity Movement around us hasn't been eliminated yet. Try to use their leaders to threaten them and force them to retreat."

Amiya nodded, instinctively wanting to shout a threat at the Reunion Movement members, but she suddenly realized what she was saying and immediately covered her mouth.

She paused, then jogged to Mephisto's side and whispered:

"Let your men retreat and let us leave."

Mephistopheles clutched his throat, his composure crumbling.

Do I dare to speak?

What's wrong with you, little rabbit?

Mephisto glanced cautiously at Qi Yan, and seeing that he made no comment, he quickly waved to the Reunion Movement members around him, signaling them to retreat.

He wasn't afraid of dying, nor was he afraid of those from the Reunion Movement dying, but he was afraid that Faust, that idiot, would actually rush up and fight Qi Yan to the death.

The members of the Reunion Movement hesitated for a moment, but ultimately chose to slowly withdraw.

Qi Yan glanced down at Mephisto and said:

"Go find Lyudmila in the team, she's the Kingslayer, and then... shut your beak."

Mephistopheles' face twitched, as if he felt incredibly humiliated, but in the end he obediently chose to comply.

Seeing that the crisis was over, Amiya didn't dare to delay and quickly led her team away.

As soon as the group left the park area, they saw a group of people dressed in Rhodes Island uniforms rushing towards them.

The captain at the head of the group is a racehorse girl with dazzling golden hair, clad in armor.

Upon seeing Amiya and the others, a look of joy appeared on her face, and she waved and called out from afar:

"Thank goodness, you're all alright."

"Don't... shout."

Amiya instinctively tried to stop them, but it was too late.

She quickly and nervously looked at Qi Yan, only to find him pitifully rubbing against his younger sister.

"Good sister, could you please cover my ears? From today onwards, I promise I won't yell anymore," Qi Yan said tearfully.

Qi Lin looked so disgusted that her wolf ears turned into airplane ears, and she pressed hard against Qi Yan's body, trying to push him away.

But Qi Lin couldn't push him away at all, and could only let Qi Yan shamelessly rub against her.

Just then, because of a loud shout from the blonde horse girl, everyone subconsciously looked at Qi Yan and took in everything.

Qi Lin's fair face immediately darkened.
