Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

But I've always only ever aimed to kill; I haven't practiced this technique before. I hope I have some talent for it.

"What?" Monique asked, puzzled.

The next second, Qi Lin's figure flickered and disappeared from Monique's sight.

Monique felt a chill run down her spine and decisively rolled to one side.

The chop grazed her soft cat ears, the shockwave making them sting with pain.

"You're clearly trying to break my neck!"

Monique cursed and, without thinking, shot the arrow back.

With a crisp clang, the arrow was blocked by ice crystals that seemed to have materialized out of thin air. Qi Lin's speed did not decrease, and she raised her hand to chop again:

"Then I'll be gentle."

Monique didn't have time to speak before raising her arm to try and block.

The next second, her slender body flew backward and crashed into the shop window facing the street.

Passersby were stunned by the sudden turn of events. Before they could react, several arrows shot out from inside the shop window, collided with the oncoming ice crystals, and fell down at the same time.

Qi Lin rushed forward and became entangled with Monique, who jumped out, in front of the broken shop window.

"Aren't you a doctor?!"

Monique was immediately and perfectly suppressed by Qi Lin's fighting skills, and she was so angry that her face turned red.

Qi Lin said calmly, "It was all taught to me by Gavial."

After saying that, he threw a straight punch at Monique's pretty face.

Monique bent down to avoid it, but saw Qi Lin turn to the side and her fluffy tail lash out like a whip.

"This is the essence of what Gavial taught me, but unfortunately my innate talent is not as good as hers."

Qi Lin looked at Monique, who was seeing stars after being whipped by a tail, and added a brief explanation.

Monique was too drunk to curse anymore. She steadied herself and turned to run.

Qi Lin remained calm in the face of her escape, simply standing there and watching her silently.

After running a few steps, Monique stopped, her face alternating between pale and flushed.

"Damn it, I still need to keep you in check."

"If you're not going to run, then I will."

Qi Lin turned and ran.

"asshole!!!"

Monique's roar echoed far and wide through the street.

Chapter 450 It's not always the knights who need to put in extra effort.

Roy arrived at the Federation building, panting, and couldn't help but grin as he looked at the dark skyscraper before him.

"It's a truly rare and beautiful sight."

The terminal beeped, and Roy answered:

"Honey, what's wrong..."

"Roy, you bastard, this Rupert is too strong!" Monique's furious voice burst out, "If I stop her, I'll get beaten up; if I don't, she'll come after you!"

"Oh dear, it's not good for girls to fight like this. Did you start it?" Roy teased.

"I...you...ouch!"

Monique cried out in pain, seemingly having been punched by Qi Lin again.

All she can do now is try her best to avoid being knocked unconscious by Qi Lin.

Otherwise, she was worried that she might never wake up again under Qi Lin's strange strength.

Roy listened to his partner's pitiful voice in the terminal and couldn't help but shake his head and click his tongue.

"You need to put in more effort," Roy said with pity. "Hold on for five more minutes. If you can't take it, run over here. I'll take the beating for you."

With that, he hung up the terminal.

But as soon as the call ended, another call came in.

"So busy."

Roy answered the call unhurriedly.

A question came through the terminal: "Lord Roy, such a big thing happened tonight, why didn't the Unarmored Alliance show up to protect the directors?"

Roy pushed open the door to the Federation building and strolled slowly into the dimly lit lobby:

"This isn't too sudden. As you know, we in the Unarmored Alliance have been busy dealing with the infected these past few days."

As soon as it happened, I rushed over here without stopping, and I'm already inside the federation building.

McGee said in a deep voice:

"The situation is urgent, so please put aside your original task and ensure the safety of the board members."

"Okay, okay," Roy said with a grin. "I don't think... anyone would actually make a move against the board of directors, would they?"

This is a job that could get you into serious trouble; who would be so unlucky as to do it?

McGee: "..."

After hanging up the call, Roy put away his terminal and leisurely climbed the stairs, one floor at a time.

Even after climbing several floors, he would lean against the handrail to catch his breath, mainly to conserve his energy.

Roy covered several blocks to reach the Federation building in less than a minute, but it took him a full three minutes to climb the stairs.

When he arrived at the floor where the board members were located, McKee and Markowitz were standing in front of the meeting room door, like two guardian deities.

"Oh, could it be that the two spokespeople are also hidden masters?"

Roy looked surprised.

In the pitch-black environment, McGee's face appeared even darker.

"Sir Roy, please don't joke with us. Now that you've arrived, we'll leave the security here to you."

"No problem, I'll start patrolling right away."

Roy grinned and, carrying his bow, began to stroll leisurely down the corridor.

"Isn't it unnecessary to go that far?" McGee reminded him.

"But... I heard the sound of little mice over there."

Roy obediently stopped and pointed to a tightly closed door, as if he truly respected McGee and would wait for McGee to make a decision before daring to act.

McGee's face darkened: "Grab him!"

Roy then slowly moved to the door, looking serious and wary of any enemy who might suddenly retaliate from inside.

But as he slowly reached for the doorknob, before he could even turn it, he heard the sound of breaking glass coming from inside the house.

Roy opened the door, and a cool night breeze wafted through the room, ruffling his clothes.

McKee and Markowitz rushed over and cautiously peered inside. They immediately noticed an old-fashioned telephone lying carelessly on the floor and a broken window.

"It seems the Federation building has been broken into. I'll go after them and see if they've stolen any important documents."

Roy left without waiting for McKee and the other man's reaction, and jumped out of the broken window.

"Tsk, what on earth are those guys from the Unarmored Alliance up to?"

McGee muttered a curse under his breath.

Markowitz opened his mouth slightly beside him, but ultimately said nothing.

The matter of the three heavy iron arrows remains a secret hidden deep in Markowitz's heart.

Inside the Lin Guang family's villa, in a dark room, there was only one lonely figure.

Marna waited in the house for a long time, but the Nearl sisters and Zofia did not return. She gradually realized that the three girls had all gone to Martin's tavern.

Marna remained silent alone in the room.

But soon, he heard a steady footstep.

The footsteps didn't belong to Lin Guang and the others, but they were still very familiar to Marna.

He quickly got up and went downstairs to open the villa's door.

Outside, there was a dignified woman.

“What brings you here, Lord Russell?” Marner clearly showed respect to the Grand Knight Commander.

Russell smiled elegantly: "I just came to take a look."

Marner stepped aside, gesturing for Russell to come inside and talk.

Russell shook his head, stood on the lush path of the manor, and looked at the golden pegasus.

“Tonight won’t be peaceful; there will be a lot to deal with,” Russell repeated. “I just came to check it out.”

"...What are you looking at?"

“Let’s see if that wandering swordsman has returned.” As Russell spoke, his gaze remained fixed on Marner’s eyes.

Maena: "..."

A complex emotion flashed in Russell's eyes.

She lowered her head slightly:

"Passing through battlefields piled with corpses and endless wastelands, at the end of the fortress burned by artillery fire, has that ranger not returned yet?"

Maena: "..."

A sigh echoed through the manor.

Marna's thoughts seemed to be taken back to a time in the past by this sigh.

His father, the old man who used his status as an infected person as an excuse to send Nearl out of Kazimierz, said nothing on his deathbed, only letting out a sigh.

Russell looked at Marner, who was in a daze, said nothing more, and turned to leave.

But Marna suddenly called out to her:

"Lord Russell, please be careful of Rhodes Island."

Russell looked somewhat surprised and turned to look at Marner.

The golden pegasus stood in the darkness, its yellow eyes shining brightly, especially clear in the darkness.

"Why Rhodes Island, and not Qi Yan?" Russell asked.

“Qi Yan is strong, but he is only a strong individual.” Marna’s eyes lowered slightly. “However, there is an extraordinary being on Rhodes Island. Qi Yan specifically demonstrated his power to me…”

Yes, in Qi Yan's view, the other party was the truly formidable figure worthy of his awe. He genuinely made him uneasy; he was silent yet in complete control… like an evil spirit silently watching everything from the shadows of the city.

"...The Tower of Babel."

Russell clearly knew something secret, and he murmured a name buried in history.

“Marna”.

Russell called Marner's name softly again.

She said softly, "Have you found your answer?"

"Your Excellency Russell...it may rain or even snow in the next few days, please prepare your clothing accordingly."

Chapter 451 Blue Gold and Blue Gold are Not the Same

The wind howled in my ears.

Sona's body plummeted through the air, her eyes barely able to open, and she could only try her best to cast spells to slow her descent.

"Little Grey, catch me!"
