Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

"Has anyone seen Qi Yan?" Anto asked urgently as he ran over. "Has he joined the battle too?"

The crowd stopped cheering and shook their heads in unison:

"I didn't see Qi Yan. He doesn't need to be involved in a battle of this magnitude."

Upon hearing this, Anto stamped his feet in frustration:

"He's missing! I wasn't looking at him for a second, and he just disappeared!"

(I feel terrible after drinking so much. My head is spinning and I can't muster any energy all day. I heard that's because I didn't drink enough. I'll buy two bottles of alcohol tonight and drink my fill.)

(One more chapter, don't rush)

Chapter 368 I'm so high I can't even drink anymore!

Severin was very agitated.

He couldn't understand how things had developed to this point in just half a day, after he had spent the morning in his office pondering the reason for Captain Bai's sudden disappearance.

"More than a dozen residents were seriously injured in the stampede, and some have even died. The number of those with minor injuries is countless!"

"Many residents' protective suits were damaged, and after running around the city, their risk of infection skyrocketed to over 80%!"

"Your entire military police squad was injured, and thirteen of you had to be hospitalized for treatment!"

"Great job!"

Severin's roar carried far along the roofless conference room.

Mochi and the other military police officers who had fled back stood in the conference room, dejected and obediently listening to the reprimand.

Severin took a couple of breaths and suddenly began his routine roll call:

"Mochi, I always had the highest hopes for you, but I never expected you to get involved. If you don't give me an explanation today, I'll punish you by making you clean up an entire block of Originium!"

The pressure instantly fell on Mochi's head, making the already bruised and swollen face look even more bitter.

He didn't dare to defend himself, but just lowered his head and said:

"I failed to anticipate the residents' emotions and was unable to stop it in advance. I have realized my mistake."

But Captain... I have other things to report."

“I always felt that the residents’ emotions were being deliberately provoked.” Mochi raised his head, his tone worried. “At first, when the two sides clashed, I didn’t feel anything, after all, it’s common for infected and non-infected people to be hostile to each other. But later, during the melee, I found that someone was deliberately causing trouble, which aggravated the casualties among non-infected people.”

Putting these two things together, the more I thought about it, the more uneasy I felt. Could it be that some ill-intentioned people have infiltrated our recent experience of taking in foreign merchant caravans?

Hearing Mochi's analysis, Severin's already gloomy face became even more unpleasant.

This is very possible!

"Looks like we need to thoroughly investigate the composition of the people in the city." Severin glanced at the group of military police in the room and said angrily, "I'm giving you a chance to redeem yourselves..."

Inside the meeting room, Severin began assigning tasks for the covert investigation.

Meanwhile, in a room in a non-infected area, three people were huddled together, listening to the sounds coming from a small player on the table.

"Hey, this guy is talking about you, you bad guy with ill intentions, the one who's making things worse for non-infected people."

After listening to Moqi's analysis, W laughed so hard that his little tail twitched.

Qi Yan curled his lip and said indifferently:

"Your habit of planting listening devices everywhere has actually worked! They dare to suspect me like this. If I don't cooperate with them, wouldn't I be the one being suspected for nothing?"

W's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly:

"What are you planning to do? Take me with you this time. I've had enough of this Sakorta."

She's always so slow and inefficient; she doesn't take any of the tasks you assign her seriously.

"You bullshit!"

When Arturo saw that W was complaining to his face, he immediately became anxious: "I was very serious about carrying out Qi Yan's plan and trying to influence those people in a non-violent way."

Every day I not only waste my energy recalling religious doctrines I have no interest in, but I also have to endure the ridicule of those guys.

At this point, Arturo also began to complain:

"This Sarkaz was supposed to cooperate with me, but she was completely useless and just dragged me down the whole time."

She was always thinking of sneaking away to see you; if I hadn't been watching her closely, she would have run away long ago.

As they talked, the atmosphere gradually became tense, and they began to expose each other's shortcomings.

“You’ve memorized all the doctrines wrong. Sometimes the one from one day is contradictory to the one from the next. No wonder people are mocking you.”

"You just stand there with your arms crossed every day like a vase, without saying a word of encouragement. You should pretend to be a pitiful Sarkaz girl."

"I pity you, you little brat."

"Only those who are in the wrong will resort to foul language to bluff their way out after only a few words."

"I'm happy with it. A foul mouth is better than smelly feet. I'm pitiful sleeping with you, a Sakta, every day."

"You...you...you snore loudly when you sleep!"

The two became increasingly defensive as they talked, and eventually they couldn't hold back their emotions any longer. Just when they were about to start pulling each other's hair and tearing each other's clothes, they suddenly remembered something and stopped arguing at the same time.

'We can't let that dog see Sakta's skinny frame!'

'We can't let Qi Yan see this Sarkaz's sinister physique!'

The two cursed each other under their breath, then turned their heads away and ignored each other.

"Huh? Is this the end?"

Qi Yan looked regretful.

Qi Xiaobai's favorite thing is watching women fight.

He missed the fight between his younger sister and Froststar because he was busy ruining Old Wei's tea, and he regretted it for a long time.

W's face was dark, and she grinned at Qi Yan, showing her little tiger teeth, and said with dissatisfaction:

"You're so concerned about that little rabbit, and you've already won over Mudrock, why aren't you hurrying back to Rhodes Island? Now that the data results are in, shouldn't you leave?"

Qi Yan spread his hands and smiled:

"I just said that I'm going to cooperate with the suspicions of the military police. This is what they call 'what you keep in mind will eventually come back to you.'"

Judging by the time, our Empress should be back soon.

W clicked his tongue lightly, but didn't insist on anything, and pressed on:

"Then tell me your plan."

"The plan is to sleep." Qi Yan got up and stretched. "I need to obediently follow the doctor's orders, sleep more and fight less these days, otherwise I'll have to pay Anto a head."

Arturo tilted his head, looked at the only double bed in the room, and asked:

"But there are three of us, how can we sleep in a double bed?"

Qi Yan walked to the bedside, turned to face the two women, and slowly opened his arms:

"of course……"

The two women gasped for breath, their eyes widening slightly.

Then they heard Qi Yan say, "Of course you guys sleep on the floor, and I'll have the double bed all to myself. If anyone dares to disturb my sleep, I'll throw her to feed the big white dog."

Second daughter: "..."

Before they could react, Qi Yan had already pounced on the bed like a vicious dog and crawled into the covers.

Smelling the two mixed scents in the blankets, Qi Yan muttered to himself:

"Liar, no... phew."

Before he could finish speaking, he fell asleep, leaving Arturo and W sitting in the chairs staring at each other, wanting to argue but afraid that Qi Yan would really throw them to be fed to that god called Big White.

At night, under the dim sky, the breeze, like a wanderer, swept through the city, but never took anything away.

Qi Yan stood with his hands behind his back atop the tallest building nearby, his eyes closed, his hair and clothes fluttering in the wind, like a powerful figure standing at the pinnacle of the world, proud and lonely.

A figure with long golden hair silently drifted over from afar, landing behind Qi Yan. She removed her pure white mask, revealing an elegant and beautiful face.

"You've arrived," Qi Yan said calmly.

The White Queen nodded: "I've arrived."

Qi Yan remained with his back to the White Queen, his tone desolate:

"You shouldn't have come."

She was a little confused about what had happened. She looked around but didn't see any ambushes or enemies.

After examining it carefully for a moment, the White Queen hesitated and said:

"What's wrong with you?"

Qi Yan: "...You can leave now."

"Why?!" the White Queen exclaimed anxiously. "I went through so much trouble to bring them here. Didn't we have an agreement?"

Qi Yan finally turned his head, his golden eyes filled with undisguised disdain:

"I don't hang out with people who can't keep up with the jokes."

"Speak in unison!!!"

Chapter 369 The White Queen: I'm Not Old!

On the rooftop, Qi Yan covered his two wolf ears, bared his teeth, and squatted down, cursing and swearing.

The air of a master he had cultivated vanished in the blink of an eye.

"Are you kidding me? I was just joking with you, why are you yelling at me with Originium Arts?" Qi Yan retorted angrily.

The White Queen crossed her arms, her beautiful face covered in frost, and coldly said:

"You asked me to meet you on the rooftop in the middle of the night, and all you did was make jokes I couldn't understand. Who wouldn't be angry?"

Qi Yan snorted:

"Your own long hair has led to your limited knowledge, and you can't blame others for that?"

I advise you to read more novels from the Yan Kingdom, to experience what it means to be a true hero who serves his country and its people, and what it means that the righteous are often the lowly butchers, while the ungrateful are often the scholars.

"I'm busy to death every day. Do you think everyone is as idle as you?" the White Queen said with dissatisfaction. "Do you know that every minute I spend here is equivalent to countless government affairs piling up?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Yan couldn't help but chuckle.

He plopped down in his seat and said calmly:

"Playing the victim with me won't work. You and I both know that if the Wolumonde experiment succeeds, it will be more meaningful than a year of your administrative work."

The White Queen's tense face softened slightly, but still showed displeasure:

"We had agreed that I would go and call people, but you spread rumors in the city, scaring both the infected and the uninfected into joining forces."

As a result, the two groups are now fighting more and more fiercely, and in the end, they only produced an experimental result that is helpful for Rhodes Island's future, but it does nothing to help me unite the commoners against the nobles.

"How could it not have helped?"

Qi Yan countered, "Some people in the infected group have already awakened to the idea of ​​resistance and understand how they can resist their fate in the future."

"It is expected that a large number of infected people will emerge from the uninfected population, and then the experienced ones will mentor the new ones, thus greatly expanding the ranks."

The White Queen felt a chill run down her spine as she watched Qi Yan speak these words in such a casual tone, as if he were simply mentioning how many small breads he had eaten that evening.

Non-infected people may say many wrong things due to discrimination and prejudice, but the statement that infected people are short-lived is an undeniable fact.

During the day, Qi Yan casually spread a few panic-inducing remarks, causing the lifespans of over a hundred people to be shortened to one-tenth or one-twelfth of their original lifespans, yet he himself felt nothing about it.

Qi Yan didn't even take action to teach the non-infected person a lesson because of their bad attitude; he was purely motivated by rationality.

"Isn't what you're doing contrary to Rhodes Island's principles?" The White Queen couldn't help but ask the question that had been bothering her.

Qi Yan chuckled and said, "I won't teach Amiya like that. I'm only responsible for finding a feasible path. The future is for Amiya to explore on her own."

I possess immense power, enough to overturn this continent, and even to emulate the Nightmare Khan of yesteryear, single-handedly forming an army to crush each and every power on this continent. But it's useless; I cannot change the hearts of the people.

You possess supreme power, capable of guiding this continent, and even, like the former Witch King, forcefully suppressing all voices within your territory, forcing everyone to submit to you. But it's useless; you cannot change people's hearts.
