Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

"You dare to look down on me!" Mandela exploded on the spot, "It's because of your trouble that the Sarkaz have completely sealed off the city, and I can't even go back to Deeppool!"

Qi Yan chuckled:

"Otherwise you won't be able to go back. You've already been sold to me by Sister Banana. Even if you sneak back, she'll wash you clean, tie you up, and send you back to my bed."

Mandela: "..."

Grey top hat: "Mr. Qi Yan and Shen Chi..."

“That’s right. I have already reached an agreement with the leader of Deeppool. The situation is very favorable now. The morale of the Sarkaz has been dampened, and the Duke has not yet reacted. This is the perfect opportunity for Deeppool to rise up!”

Grey top hat: "..."

Mandela: "Yay! Why hasn't Princess Vina said a word the whole time? Does she not like to talk?"

Seeing Mandela's increasingly arrogant expression, Vina's lips tightened slightly.

She was the one most familiar with Qi Yan among the people present, and she only believed a small part of Qi Yan's nonsense.

But even those three points were enough to leave her somewhat at a loss.

After a moment of silence, Vina looked at Qi Yan and decided to speak frankly:

Are you really prepared to support the Deeppool leader in obtaining the throne?

Upon hearing this, Mandela suppressed the urge to jump up and mock him, and looked expectantly at Qi Yan, waiting for his affirmative answer.

Even the man in the grey top hat, who was unsure if he would make it back alive, waited patiently, thinking, "I might as well hear what's going to happen."

"Well... not necessarily. Who knows, maybe in the end I'll be the one with both of you on either side, and I'll personally sit on the throne."

Qi Yan was lost in his beautiful fantasy, grinning foolishly: "This is what they call the emperor taking turns. This year it's my turn, and my first policy will be to have thirty million beauties in the harem!"

Wei Na: "..."

Mandela: "It doesn't seem impossible, but the leader has to be big!"

Grey Top Hat: "You want to rebuild Kazdel and return to the Demon King's throne... Hiss, you want to unify the entire land of Terra?!"

The gray top hat's words completely baffled Qi Yan.

An eerie silence fell over the four of them, and they stared at each other blankly.

"What is he talking about?"

Qi Yan looked at Vina, seeking her help.

Vina glanced at the gray top hat and explained:

"He just received intelligence that you rebuilt Kazdel and were once the Demon King."

"Holy crap, you guys figured that out!"

Qi Yan exclaimed in surprise.

Mandela: ?!

Grey top hat: "Just as I thought!"

Qi Yan scratched his head and explained:

"Back in Chernobog, Anna, who is also known as Truth, that little bear girl recognized me as the Great Demon King. The little rabbit was also there. I never thought that everyone would know now. It's amazing."

Vina felt like something was wrong. Qi Yan had gone crazy again, completely out of sync with the others.

Mandela and the grey-hatted man were clearly unaware of Vina's presence. At this moment, both of them stared at Qi Yan in disbelief, their thoughts churning like thunder.

"Hey everyone, don't just stand here like idiots."

Qi Yan, in a familiar manner, put his arm around the shoulder of the man in the gray top hat and waved to Vina and the other woman: "Go back to the house first. I still need to discuss the construction of the Kazdel nursing home with my little rabbit."

Only by persuading the little rabbit can we stop the old lynx's attack. By the way, Vina, would you like to come to my nursing home? I'll make you the head nurse.

"I reject."

Vina followed Qi Yan and rejected the invitation without hesitation, even though it sounded unreliable.

While feeling apprehensive, the man in the grey top hat also experienced a strange sense of exhilaration.

This is Qi Yan, he's like a brother to me, all arm in arm. If I make it back alive, I can brag about it all night long with just a plate of peanuts!

Mandela followed at the very back, wagging its tail, secretly plotting how to help its leader win favor among Qi Yan's 30 million concubines.

As Mandela pondered, a chill ran down her spine: "Three million...ten thousand?!"

The three people in front turned around at the same time and asked in unison:

"You really mean it?"

Mandela: "..."

With the resentful, silly cat in tow, Qi Yan and his companions quickly entered the manor villa. As soon as they entered, they saw Amiya talking to Aldey.

Upon hearing the door open, the two stopped talking and turned to look, their expressions then diverging into two extremes.

Aleide looked at the grey top hat that Qi Yan had his arm around, her expression a mix of panic and fear.

Amiya ignored everyone else, her eyes only on Qi Yan.

"Mr. Qi Yan, you're finally back!"

Chapter 618 The much-anticipated unboxing segment

Qi Yan is back!

This statement spread at an astonishing speed throughout the Duke of Cumberland's mansion.

Upon receiving the news, everyone acted in unison, dropping what they were doing and rushing to the villa's living room.

Mudstone held the unfinished book in one hand and took out his wallet to count his assets with the other.

She then sighed softly, "It's a pity I didn't receive the bonus that Manfred promised."

Shan, standing beside her, couldn't help but tease her:

“It won’t be easy for you to support Qi Yan; his poverty is probably a law of cause and effect.”

“We should try our best to help him, otherwise he won’t even have money to eat when he’s all alone out there,” Niyan insisted.

Just as the two crossed the intersection, they saw Huang running past them excitedly, carrying a bottle of wine in one hand and dragging a drunken Thorn along the other.

From the thorns' dazed eyes, Shan saw the three large words "Save me" clearly.

When confronted with Thorn's plea for help, Shan made a quick decision to look away and pretend he hadn't seen anything.

On the other side, Horn, his body wrapped in bandages, staggered out of his room, followed closely by Bagpipes carrying a bowl of medicine.

Kroos excitedly ran by carrying a drone.

Lolo gritted his teeth, watching the drone in Kroos's hand with trepidation.

"Put down my Locke-17, don't break it!"

"Don't worry, I'm very steady..."

Before Kroos could finish speaking, she bumped into the Doctor who was coming out from around the corner.

The doctor stumbled, and the sanity serum he had just raised to his lips fell to the ground, shattering with a clatter.

"Ah... Aba aba..."

Chen walked out of his room, looked at the mess before him, and sighed helplessly.

"Now that Qi Yan is back, he certainly won't run away so quickly, what's the rush?"

Before you say that, could you slow down a bit?

Eldo pulled the reluctant Red along and caught up with Chen from behind.

Chen lifted his chin and continued walking:

"I have something important to ask Qi Yan: why didn't he stop you, Reunion Movement, from kidnapping Talulah?"

Eldo followed closely behind, explaining earnestly:

"Talulah is very important to the Reunion Movement. She is the founder of the Reunion Movement and the one who spread the name of the Reunion Movement throughout the land."

Only she can stabilize morale and help the Reunification Movement move forward better.

“But she’s in danger!” Chen said, frowning.

"Aren't you her sister?" Eldo asked, puzzled. "Why would you talk about your sister like that?"

“I’m not talking about her as a person, I’m talking about the power within her… Sigh, never mind, I can’t explain it to you, I’ll go ask Qi Yan.”

When Chen mentioned the black snake, she was reminded of those unpleasant experiences. She pursed her lips and quickened her pace again.

In a short while, everyone gathered in the living room and immediately noticed the strange situation there.

Qi Yan, Amiya, Vina, and Mandela sat in a circle, surrounding Alede and a strange man in a gray-black suit.

The owner of the villa, Alleide, appeared unusually anxious and uneasy at this moment.

Grey Top Hat, on the other hand, completely gave up and was simply lying down and letting things take their course.

"What's happening here?"

Kroos had already returned the drone to Lolo, and with one hand she was grabbing the Doctor's collar and the other she was pouring sanity potion into his mouth.

The doctor choked so badly that his eyes rolled back and his limbs twitched irregularly.

"Hey! Let go of the doctor!" Amiya rushed over to help immediately.

Qi Yan calmly introduced to everyone:

"This is a member of the Duke of Caesar's intelligence agency, wearing a grey top hat. Let's give him a round of applause."

No one paid any attention to Qi Yan's attempts to warm up the crowd; they all frowned and stared at the man in the gray top hat.

Seeing that no one was paying attention, Qi Yan didn't mind and continued his introduction:

"This is Allardy, the eldest daughter of the 'Eternally Noble Cumberland' family, an undercover agent planted by the Duke of Castle. Let's give her a round of applause."

Aleda: “…”

She didn't even think about making excuses. Qi Yan was famous, and even though this was her territory, she didn't feel she had any right to resist.

Just when everyone was at a loss, the Doctor was finally saved from the brink of death by Amiya.

He wiped the residue of his sanity-enhancing liquid from his mouth and questioned:

"So, what are you planning to do, you professional traitor, the eternal god of undercover work, by coming here to expose another undercover agent?"

"Ugh, it's just that I can't stand watching Allardy's undercover work being so difficult, her mental exhaustion every day."

Qi Yan smiled and comforted Aleide, "It's okay. Being an undercover agent is being an undercover agent. Be confident and ambitious. The ultimate goal of being an undercover agent is to rise to the top and become the boss."

When your superior calls to tell you to close the net, just look surprised and tell them, "Really? Sir, we're doing legitimate business." Understand?

Aleda: “…”

Do you assume everyone is like you?

The doctor walked over, pushed past Qi Yan, and turned to look Alede up and down:

“It’s surprising. I thought your exhaustion was due to the Self-Rescue Army, or to the Lontinim and Sarkaz, but I never expected it to be the mental torment of your wavering identity and stance.”

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand!"

Qi Yan raised his hand and pulled the doctor's hood down, covering his face completely: "Aldebaran is indeed the one who tried her best to save Lontinim. She has not failed the family's title of 'Eternally Noble Cumberland'."

The crowd went from being overjoyed at Qi Yan's return, to being shocked that an undercover agent was revealed to be among them, and now to the subtle feeling of Qi Yan openly speaking on the side of the undercover agent.

Their emotions were like those of someone on a rollercoaster, constantly shifting with Qi Yan's every move, leaving them somewhat unable to keep up.

Vina frowned and looked at Allardy, then said:

Aren't you going to say anything?

“I…have nothing to say,” Aleide said dejectedly. “What Qi Yan said is all true.”

For some reason, after she acknowledged her position and identity, she felt a sense of ease that she hadn't experienced in a long time.

Perhaps, my time is finally coming to an end.

A soft chuckle escaped Alder's lips.
