Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

Immediately contact the Rhodes Island team; both sides should join forces to launch a joint operation and recapture Misha!

Hoshiguma nodded, quickly adjusted her mindset, and contacted Amiya using the terminal.

After explaining the situation, both parties agreed on a meeting point and quickly began their operation.

On the way, Hoshiguma couldn't help but ask:

"Did you specifically call Rhodes Island to help fight against Talulah with the help of that Calamity-level powerhouse named Qi Yan?"

Chen made no attempt to hide it, and directly nodded in agreement:

"Although we may not necessarily encounter Talulah again, it's always good to have a layer of insurance. However, even excluding Qi Yan, Rhodes Island is very strong and a worthwhile partner to cooperate with."

"It's rare to hear you give such a straightforward compliment."

Hoshiguma chuckled softly.

Chen immediately tensed up, his face grim, and stopped talking.

In silence, the Guardian team arrived at the rendezvous point, where the Rhodes Island team was already waiting.

Upon seeing Chen, Amiya immediately went up to him and asked with concern:

"Officer Chen, are you all injured?"

Chen remained silent with a sullen face, but Hoshiguma spoke up first:

"Our team is okay, no one's hurt, it's just that my shield got blown up."

Amiya blinked, sensing that this should be something to be happy about.

But the Razer beside her gasped, empathizing with her sentiment:

"Is it all right?"

Hoshiguma and Liskarm exchanged a glance, staring at the shield in each other's hands, and immediately felt a sense of mutual respect.

Franka's expression changed slightly, and she quickly interjected:

"Let's talk about business first."

Amiya nodded in agreement and looked at Chen:

"The specific operation will still be organized by the Guard Bureau as agreed, and Rhodes Island will fully cooperate."

"My plan is for the Guard Bureau to take the lead in the attack, while Rhodes Island only needs to be responsible for gathering information on the Reunion Movement and providing support during the battle, in order to stop them before they completely escape from Lungmen."

Chen revealed his plan almost without hesitation.

Clearly, she had already begun simulating the development of the situation on her way here.

Amiya nodded, took out her terminal, and dialed a number.

Soon, Exusiai's lively voice came from the other end of the terminal:

Amiya, have you missed me?

Gunshots and chaotic shouts of killing could be heard mixed in with the conversation.

"Miss Exusiai, are you fighting?" Amiya asked hurriedly.

"It was just a small-scale reunification movement that we easily dealt with." Exusiai said with a hint of a smile. "To be honest, after gathering information and going through all this trouble, I'm starving. When we get back, I'm going to have apple pie with Texas, a big one."

As Exusiai finished speaking, the sounds of battle gradually subsided.

Then Texas's voice came from the terminal:

“We have figured out the route of the Reunion Movement. They are heading towards an abandoned mine. If nothing unexpected happens, they are probably planning to use it as a temporary base. I will send you the exact location via the terminal later.”

The communication ended, and Texas's location was sent immediately.

After noting down the address of the abandoned mine, Chen glanced at the Rhodes Island team.

"Speaking of which, we haven't seen Qi Yan since the last meeting. Does he have other missions?"

When Chen asked, Amiya opened her mouth, but for a moment she didn't know how to answer.

Seeing that Amiya was shy, the Doctor took the initiative to speak:

“That kid has betrayed us and is now a member of the Reunion Movement. When Officer Chen sees him later, remember to give him a couple of stabs.”

Chapter 056 Exusiai Never Goes Out of the Frame

Chen was momentarily stunned.

Hoshiguma, forgetting to discuss shield maintenance techniques with Razer, stared wide-eyed at the Doctor:

"With two Calamity-level powerhouses together, what's the point of us fighting? Let's pack up and go back to Lungmen to relocate."

Amiya couldn't help but cover her face. Even with her personality, she felt an urge to punch the Doctor.

"Everyone, the doctor was just joking. Mr. Qi Yan did not betray us. He just went to the Reunion Movement to find some... truths."

Amiya couldn't explain why Qi Yan was so enraged by the bombing and wanted to take revenge.

Under Chen and Hoshiguma's strange gaze, Amiya's little face couldn't help but blush slightly.

The professor was still laughing to himself:

“These mere words are nothing. Even if he really betrays us, under my command he'll be nothing more than a chicken or a dog. The dog is the key point.”

Hoshiguma couldn't help but chuckle dryly, and grinned as she said:

"Your company's command advisor is truly a man of character. If I don't get killed by Qi Yan with a single punch when I see him, I will definitely relay this message verbatim."

Doctor: "...There's absolutely no need for that."

Chen couldn't stand these people any longer and said with a stern face:

"Now is not the time for idle chatter, everyone, let's get moving."

Amiya nodded repeatedly.

She felt that if the Doctor continued talking, Rhodes Island would lose all face.

In order to prevent the Doctor from being hung on the bridge by Kal'tsit to reflect on his actions as Qi Yan had suggested, Amiya felt she had to find a way to stop the Doctor from speaking during non-combat hours.

Seeing that the top leaders of both sides had made their statements, everyone stopped arguing and quickly assembled their teams to head towards the wilderness outside the Dragon Gate.

Meanwhile, Exusiai and Texas were not as relaxed as they appeared during the communication.

After dealing with the Reunion Movement team they encountered, they were unable to extricate themselves and were instead entangled by the Reunion Movement members who came after hearing the commotion.

The two fought and retreated, constantly trying to disengage from the battle.

However, the Reunion Movement members became somewhat enraged upon seeing their brothers die and launched a desperate attack on the two men.

In particular, one of the white-haired figures wearing a mask kept inciting other Reunion Movement members, shouting about how tragically their brothers had died.

Texas was so enraged that she tried to rush in and kill him several times, but the other party noticed her in advance and disappeared into the crowd.

After Texas was forced back, the figure reappeared.

After going back and forth several times, Texas's originally swift movements gradually slowed down.

"This won't do. We have to get rid of them immediately, or we'll be exhausted from their entanglement."

After Texas dealt with a Reunion member, she retreated to Exusiai's side, her breathing somewhat rapid.

Exusiai looked down at the ammunition pouches at her waist.

There was only a small half-full bag of bullets left.

She tightened her grip on her musket slightly.

"Texas, step back, I'm about to fire."

Texas keenly noticed the change in Exusiai's tone, turned her head and saw that the halo above Exusiai's head was getting brighter and brighter.

Outside the halo, it seemed as if an even larger halo had appeared.

At the same time, the wings of light behind Exusiai fluttered gently.

Eight phantom guns of different shapes materialized out of thin air, unfolding like wings behind Exusiai.

Texas immediately withdrew and retreated behind Exusiai.

Qi Yan peeked out from the Reunion Movement across the way, and his heart skipped a beat:

"Overload mode has already appeared?"

Without hesitation, he turned and ran, diving headfirst into a nearby mine pit.

The moment he concealed himself, the almost frenzied firing instantly drowned out the clamor of the entire battlefield.

For a moment, only the sound of gunfire echoed in the world.

It was as if an entire legion of firepower was unleashed, instantly engulfing the land.

Exusiai's firepower doesn't last long, but it's enough.

When the chaos subsided, Qi Yan poked his head out of the mine, but Exusiai and Texas had already disappeared.

He looked at the ground, which looked as if it had been plowed, and couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.

There were only craters on the ground, but no shell casings or bullets. It seems that the eight weapons behind Exusiai were not physical objects, but rather energy bodies conjured by some kind of ability.

Under the barrage of Exusiai's Overload Mode, more than half of the Reunion Movement members were killed or wounded. The survivors were so frightened that they lay on the ground, not daring to raise their heads for a long time.

"I was thinking of catching Reunion Movement people all day long, and I had a bit of a 'trolling' mentality, so I was going to turn around and let Reunion Movement catch a couple of young girls to make them happy. But it turns out these young girls are not to be trifled with."

Qi Yan shook his head, not even glancing at the Reunion Movement members he had tricked, and turned to slip into the depths of the mine.

As long as he runs fast enough, no one will know that he is the one who harmed those people.

"Hey, you over there, come set a trap. Shattered Bones says he's going to launch a counterattack here!"

Qi Yan had just slipped into the mine when a passing squad leader called out to him.

You want me to set a trap?

And such good things?

Qi Yan didn't resist and happily ran over:

"Where's the Bone Crusher? I haven't seen him."

The squad leader chuckled and explained:

"I just learned the truth myself. It turns out that the little girl named Misha is actually Broken Bones' older sister. Now that the siblings have been reunited, let them catch up."

But I didn't expect that traitor would actually keep his word, rescue Misha, and even give us advice, telling us that if we killed that sleazy hooded man, the enemy would be thrown into chaos and unable to pursue us.

Qi Yan paused for a moment.

This time, he finally realized who the traitors the Reunion Movement was referring to were.

Who else could it be but that spendthrift woman, W!

Qi Yan wished he could find W right now, grab her by the tail, and give her a good spanking.

At this moment, the Reunion Movement members who had survived the Exia's gun finally fled back in a disheveled state.

The horrific state of those people shocked everyone in the mine.

"There are wounded! Help them!"

The group forgot about setting up traps and rushed over to rescue the person.

Qi Yan dropped the landmine he was holding, rushed over, picked up a person without saying a word, and ran away.

"Hey, you've got the wrong person, I'm not hurt!"

The Reunion Movement members on his back kept shouting.

Qi Yan replied without turning his head:

"Shut up, you're so hurt you're talking nonsense, this is psychological damage."

A row of question marks floated above the foreheads of the Reunion Movement members.

Qi Yan's confident tone made him start to doubt himself for a moment.

Before the man could recover from his self-doubt, Qi Yan carried him to the Integrative Movement's concentration of wounded, tossed him to the ground, and ran away without looking back.

He's going to settle accounts with W.
