Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

The two women met each other's gazes, one above the other.

"I'm sorry you had to see this," Qi Lin said calmly.

"No...no."

For some reason, Theresa stammered.

She then tentatively reached out her hand, and Qi Lin raised her hand to grasp it, using the leverage to stand up from her unlucky older brother.

Meanwhile, W, acting as the person seeking help, successfully brought Qi Yan, who had arrived halfway there, to the scene. Before they could even greet the cheering crowd, they discovered that all their attention had been drawn to Qi Yan.

She pursed her lips, suppressed her displeasure, and strode over to Qi Lin's side to examine Theresa together.

"You...are you really His Highness?" W looked at Theresa suspiciously.

As she spoke, her fingers were already resting on the grenade launcher at her waist, ready to pounce. If she didn't get a satisfactory answer, she would definitely pull out the launcher without hesitation and blast this imposter who dared to defile His Highness to smithereens.

"Don't hit her! Don't hit her! It's real!"

Qi Yan, lying on the ground, quickly reached out and grabbed W's ankle, trying to dissuade him.

W's face instantly brightened, and he jumped to Theresa's side to face Qi Lin together.

Everyone: "..."

Ignoring W's flailing movements, Qi Lin continued to look at Theresa and asked:

"My brother told me you lied to him?"

"No, no, right?" Theresa dared not admit to such a thing.

"No matter what, in some sense, you can control him?" Qi Lin asked again to confirm.

"...Maybe?" Theresa was a little unsure.

Upon hearing this, Qi Lin's slightly tense face softened, and she nodded with a hint of satisfaction.

W looked left and right, vaguely sensing that something was wrong.

She subtly shifted her feet, creating distance between herself and Theresa, attempting to establish a three-way standoff.

Chapter 756 The Wind Rises

W's idea was wonderful, but reality was harsh.

Qi Lin and Theresa stared at each other, neither of them noticing her little gesture.

This feeling made W very unhappy, and made her want to blow something up.

W's gaze shifted downwards, landing on a white-furred Lupo lying on its back on the ground, its eyes darting around.

"What are you looking at?"

The dark muzzle of the grenade launcher was pointed at Qi Yan's head.

Qi Yan calmly said, "I'm not watching, I'm waiting."

While she was still in a daze, Qi Lin and Theresa had already skillfully moved away from Qi Yan's vicinity.

Theresa kindly reminded him, "W, he's waiting for the wind to come."

Her confusion didn't last long; Qi Yan quickly dispelled her doubts with his actions.

A gust of wind blew across W's skirt.

W looked down and saw Qi Yan puffing out his cheeks and blowing air with all his might.

Without the slightest hesitation, W swung the butt of his rifle at him.

Qi Lin's eyelids twitched, but she ultimately chose not to intervene.

This unlucky thing in my own family has this annoying habit of acting crazy all the time, it really needs someone to help correct it.

While W and Qi Yan were playfully fighting, the Doctor had already silently blocked Theresa's possible retreat route.

The other Rhodes Island members also came over and surrounded Theresa.

After Qi Yan arrived, the group seemed to have found their leader and were no longer worried about failing to capture Theresa or accidentally hurting each other.

Theresa smiled and raised her hands in a gesture of surrender:

"Alright, it seems the professor is one step ahead. I give up."

"That simple?" The doctor was somewhat skeptical.

“At least, that’s what I thought until I figured some things out,” Theresa smiled.

The doctor's gaze sharpened beneath his mask.

He turned around and kicked Qi Yan, who was shamelessly trying to cling to W's leg, and said warily:

"Stop messing around, you white-haired dog! Quickly use your superpowers to think of a way to completely restrain Little Te!"

Qi Yan, having been kicked, groaned and got up.

"Shouldn't you use your superhuman intelligence to figure out a solution to this kind of thing?"

"My super intelligence tells me it's time to use my super power."

Unable to argue with the Doctor, Qi Yan reluctantly walked over to Theresa and, under the Doctor's curious gaze, circled Theresa twice.

Theresa: ?

"Do you still want to shoulder all the burdens alone?" Qi Yan suddenly asked.

“My decision will not change so easily,” Theresa replied.

"Then what if I said I could help you?" Qi Yan said seriously. "I'm all prepared and ready to help you anytime. Just ask, and I can do anything."

"Then, what is the price?" Theresa countered.

"The price is that from now on, when I call out to Little Te, you have to answer... I'm here."

Theresa: “…”

She glanced at the Doctor, then turned to look at Kal'tsit, and finally nodded to Kal'tsit as if she had confirmed something.

The reason the doctor has become like this is indeed because of Qi Yan!

"Little Te."

Qi Yan suddenly called out, then stared at Theresa.

After waiting for two seconds, he spoke again: "Why aren't you answering? I'm here."

“Because I haven’t lost yet.” Theresa smiled slyly. “You have indeed caught me, but I was just bait.”

The altar has been activated, but this is no longer the core of the Sarkaz plan. You killed the Exorcist and severely wounded the Blood Lord, but you overlooked someone who wasn't particularly important.

The doctor had a bad feeling and immediately began to review all the previous events.

However, Theresa didn't intend to play games with everyone and explained frankly:

“The girl next to the Pardoner, Salus, you didn’t kill her, so I took her in and entrusted her with the final step of the plan.”

The doctor was still a little confused after hearing this, and turned to look at Qi Yan:

"Salus? That name sounds familiar. Who's here?"

"Long legs, black stockings, high heels, and her shirt was almost bursting open by her two huge breasts."

"Oh, it's her."

The doctor finally found the corresponding person in his memory.

Theresa pursed her lips, looking at the Doctor with a complicated expression.

Mostima stepped forward excitedly, repeatedly asking, "Do you have any photos? Let me see!"

"Get out of here, we're talking about serious matters." Qi Yan grabbed Mostima's cheek with disdain and pushed her aside.

Mostima clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction and muttered:

"Who cares? I caught one with long legs, black stockings, high heels, and two big thunderbolts... Tsk, the Sarkaz race is really going too far!"

Everyone tacitly ignored Mostima's almost tangible resentment and focused their attention on the Doctor, waiting for him to make a decision.

Theresa waited silently, seemingly unconcerned about the consequences of her deliberate exposure of her plan.

The doctor finished his thoughts, looked at Theresa again, and said:

"Since you're being so frank, why don't you tell us more and tell us where Salus is?"

“Okay,” Theresa smiled. “Right behind the battlefield.”

"The carrion eaters are ready; the final battle is about to begin."

"Having experienced the previous battle, does the Sarkaz still have the confidence to face the Dukes' alliance head-on?"

"The 'first Originium' will unleash an active Originium storm that is more terrifying than natural disasters."

During the question-and-answer session, the professor heard unfamiliar terms again and couldn't help but scratch his head through his hood.

Kal'tsit's expression changed slightly: "You've actually gone this far?"

Theresa gave the Doctor a meaningful look.

Seeing this, Kal'tsit took a deep breath and remained silent.

The doctor, still confused, turned to Qi Yan to confirm, "Is it all true?"

Qi Yan slapped the PhD student on the head:

"Would Little Te lie to you?"

The professor was so slapped that his head tilted to the side, and it took him a long time to recover.

Why would the strongest fighter on your side speak up for the other side just because the other person is a pretty girl?

Thinking of this, the doctor covered his head and looked at Qi Yan with resentment.

Just as Qi Yan was about to lose her temper and give him a personality-correcting punch, the professor finally steered the conversation back on track:

"The war is not over yet; it's just that some unexpected events have been added. As long as Theresa is captured and no longer runs away, we have already achieved a phased victory."

Next, we might have to split up and work together. White-haired dog, you don't need to worry about anything; just focus on guarding Theresa.

Qi Yan straightened his chest: "Please rest assured, Doctor, I, Qi Xiaobai, guarantee that I will never steal from you!"

"...Kal'tsit, you're in charge of assisting that white-haired dog. Don't let him get fooled again." The Doctor was utterly exhausted.

Kal'tsit nodded silently.

The Doctor then looked at Shining: "Since you are the one who is stopping the Exorcist, Shining is definitely the best candidate. I'll trouble you to take some people and make the trip."

“I understand, Doctor.”

Shining nodded calmly.

“Doctor, let me give you some more information,” Theresa suddenly said. “The active Originium Storm can be suppressed with the Breath of Kings.”

Upon receiving this information, which was suddenly slapped in the face, the Doctor was not surprised, but rather fell silent.

"You want to break up our troops?"

Although the doctor was asking a question, his tone was extremely certain.

Theresa looked at the Doctor intently and said:

“You have no choice. There is only one Qi Yan, and we cannot take care of everyone.”

Chapter 757 Let the Broadcast Fly for a While

Theresa seemed determined to lay everything bare, directly stating everything:

“Salus is not far from the Carrion Eaters, so he can go there to provide support at any time. If Qi Yan does not go there personally, Rhodes Island will have to send more combat power.”

At the same time, the army of scavengers will launch a war, and Salus's actions will proceed in tandem with it. Anana, the 'first Originium,' will unleash a storm of active Originium.

The Silverstone Cliff battlefield will become the epicenter of the active Originium storm. The Sarkaz already know that the Breath of the Kings is on that crown prince, and they will stop her at all costs. If Qi Yan is not there, Rhodes Island will also need a large number of personnel to protect her.

Furthermore, I did not sense the dead soul returning to the embrace of the other souls. He will surely come to receive me once he is ready. Similarly... without Qi Yan, you could not have stopped me from leaving.”

"Well, I've become the hot commodity."
