Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

"Of course I have amnesia."

The terminal emitted a busy tone indicating that the communication had been disconnected.

The doctor held the terminal in silence for a moment, then raised his hand, pulled down his mask, and threw the Originium into his mouth.

"Operator Huang, do you see that Guard Bureau building?"

Huang swallowed hard and nodded.

The doctor chuckled foolishly, extended his index finger and thumb, pinched the Guard Bureau building in his line of sight from afar, and then gently closed them:

"I'm in a bad mood, can you help me cause some trouble?"

Half a minute later, Huang jumped off the 'Bad Guy' without any protection, carrying the Doctor like a little chick in his hand.

Screams echoed through the air.

Chen looked up as he was cleaning up the Reunification Movement communications team on the rooftop of the Guard Bureau building and saw a large, enthusiastic cat descending from the sky.

The heat distorted the air, and the roar of the chainsaw drowned out the doctor's scream.

"*Longmen swear words*!"

The Guard Bureau building shook, and the entire first floor of the rooftop collapsed. Chen's figure fell down with an angry curse.

Nearly half of the Reunification Movement was buried in the ruins.

As the smoke cleared, Huang placed his chainsaw on the ground and helped the doctor, whose legs were trembling, to his feet.

"Next time, you can jump by yourself. I can have someone else bring you slowly with a parachute."

The doctor, still shaken, patted his chest, pushed Huang aside, and walked shakily to Chen:

"Hey sis, aren't you touched? Rhodes Island has come to our aid... By the way, where's Officer Hoshiguma? Qi Yan asked me to pass on a message to her."

Longmen, in a slum.

Two figures, one large and one small, dressed in Reunion Movement uniforms and wearing masks, moved furtively through the streets.

"Mr. Qi Yan..."

"My name is Xiaobai now."

"...Xiao Bai, why should we join the Reunion Movement?"

Qi Yan glanced at Amiya beside him and sighed:

"The Reunion Movement is already so pathetic, and you still want to fight them? Don't you think that's a bit cruel?"

Amiya opened her mouth, but for a moment she didn't know what to say.

She felt that Qi Yan's infiltration of the movement was the truly cruel thing.

"Little rabbit, don't worry. With that idiot who keeps babbling all day long in charge, these integration movements are just grasshoppers in autumn, they won't last long."

Qi Yan pointed to the rising dust in the distance and laughed, "Look, that's probably the Guard Bureau building over there. It's been demolished."

Why does the first half of the sentence say that the Reunion Movement is doomed, while the second half says that the Guard Bureau building is being demolished?

Amiya was a little confused by Qi Yan's train of thought.

Qi Yan didn't explain, but grabbed Amiya's clothes and pulled her into a nearby alley.

Suddenly, a small, disorganized group of Reunion Movement members appeared on the street, seemingly fleeing from something, and ran towards Qi Yan and his companion.

Qi Yan poked his head out and waved to them:

"Brothers, it's safe here, come inside quickly."

Those involved in the integration movement, without suspicion, quickly disappeared into the alley.

Chapter 078 The Great Escape of the Reunion Movement

A large group of Reunification Movement members surged into the alley, only to be dumbfounded.

"Kid, this is clearly a dead end, where is it safe?"

Qi Yan turned his head to look behind him, and spread his hands, saying:

"It's safe now, but I didn't say whether it might become dangerous in half a minute."

"your!"

There was a hot-tempered person in the Reunion Movement who almost rolled up his sleeves and beat up Qi Yan.

It was someone next to him who pulled him back in time, saving his life.

The remaining people felt a bit unlucky and turned to flee back out of the alley.

However, a few people, after glancing at Qi Yan and Amiya, spoke up to offer advice:

"You two little brats, hurry up and run with us. There are evil things in this Dragon Gate."

Qi Yan was so startled he almost jumped into Amiya's arms:

"Such a thing actually exists! Hurry up and go to Yan Kingdom to invite the Old Celestial Master to perform a ritual!"

Even those involved in the Reunion Movement were taken aback.

Then, they looked at Qi Yan with a hint of pity.

"This child must be terrified; no wonder he's talking nonsense."

"Quickly, two people, take them with you. Don't let those dirty things in black raincoats find them."

"Go to that underground passage; you can evacuate directly to outside Lungmen from there."

Without saying a word, a group of people grabbed Qi Yan and Amiya and ran.

Seeing that Qi Yan did not resist, Amiya silently followed the group and began to flee.

But as she ran, she couldn't help but look back out of curiosity.

Amidst the intricate network of buildings in the slums, several ghostly black figures flashed by, following the Reunion Movement at a leisurely pace.

Amiya was slightly startled.

She didn't know who those guys in black raincoats were, but she could tell that, apart from Qi Yan, no one in the team was a match for them, including herself.

The opponent is very strong, and doesn't seem to be in a hurry to kill this Reunion Movement team directly.

Amiya broke free from the Reunion members' grasp, moved closer to Qi Yan, and asked in a low voice:

"Qi... Xiaobai, who are those people?"

"Where is anyone? I don't see anyone. Is there really something evil?" Qi Yan looked around but saw nothing. He exclaimed, "Little rabbit, don't scare me. My legs are weak and I can't run. You'll have to carry me."

Amiya puffed out her cheeks and stopped talking, feeling annoyed.

She still doesn't know Qi Yan's purpose in bringing her into the Reunion Movement.

The two of them mingled in the Reunion Movement and ran for a while before smoothly arriving at a deep alley.

"Quickly, let the child go in first."

The leader lifted the manhole cover deep in the alley and looked directly at Qi Yan and Amiya at the back of the group.

Amiya's expression clearly froze when she saw the man.

That man was the same one who had been short-tempered and almost rolled up his sleeves to beat up Qi Yan earlier.

"Hurry up, are you scared out of your wits?" the man urged repeatedly.

Qi Yan pulled Amiya along, letting her crawl into the sewer well first.

Just as he was about to go down, he was suddenly grabbed by the irritable man.

"You little rascal, be strong and protect that girl!"

"Don't worry, I love little bunnies the most."

"Get off!"

The man forcefully pushed Qi Yan into the sewer.

After Qi Yan and Amiya successfully descended underground, the others followed suit.

But just as half of the people had come down, a chaotic chorus of screams erupted from the ground.

Amid the commotion, a woman was thrown down, landing awkwardly in the sewage. An enraged man roared from the manhole cover:

"Run! Don't just stand there like idiots! I'll buy you some time!"

As he spoke, he forcefully slammed the manhole cover shut, simultaneously using Originium Arts to release a burst of heat that welded the cover shut.

The members of the integration team gasped in alarm, but it was too late to stop them.

The last woman to be left lay in the sewage, sobbing uncontrollably.

Others forced themselves to remain calm and shouted:

"Don't stand there like idiots! The captain and the others can't hold out against the black raincoats for long. Everyone, let's get out of here!"

The members of the Reunion Movement clenched their fists, trying their best to suppress their emotions, and helped their companions up to quickly move forward in the dimly lit sewers.

Amiya tugged at Qi Yan's clothes, her small hands clenched tightly, and said in a voice only the two of them could hear:

"I...I want to save the people up there."

Qi Yan scratched his head and asked in return:

"Why save?"

“They are infected, they are being chased by those black raincoats, and they just showed us kindness.”

Amiya didn't quite understand why saving people required a reason, but she still blurted out a lot of things.

Qi Yan and Amiya followed at the back of the group at a leisurely pace. Qi Yan pointed to the Reunion Movement members and whispered:

"But have you considered why they were being chased by the black raincoats? It's because they were invaders. They disrupted the peace of Lungmen and killed many people."

Amiya's pupils contracted slightly.

She fell silent, only holding onto Qi Yan's clothes, letting him lead her as they ran aimlessly through the Reunion Movement's ranks.

Before long, the team passed through the sewers and entered a much wider underground passage.

There were also many other members of the Reunion Movement in the passageway.

Amiya stared blankly at the people; almost all of them were wounded, clearly having fled to this place.

The team the two belonged to was also somewhat surprised when they saw the situation in the passage.

The woman who had been left behind grabbed a hurried Reunion member and asked:

"Why are there so many fellow travelers in this underground passage that's supposed to be a refuge and emergency shelter? Did everyone encounter the black raincoat?"

The person who was being pulled shook his head and said with difficulty:

“We don’t know anything about the black raincoat, but we do know that there is a terrifying hooded man who looks down on Lungmen like a god and makes our Reunion Movement suffer repeated defeats.”

From the moment he made his move to the complete collapse of our invasion, less than half an hour had passed!

The woman trembled and took a half-step back in fear:

"That's impossible. With so many of us, we practically control half of Lungmen. How could we have been completely defeated in just half an hour?"

"How the hell am I supposed to know!"

The man was somewhat agitated. He swore at something, then realized his mistake and quickly apologized.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. It's just that the situation is very unfavorable right now. We might not even be able to hold out until the Yeti Squad's reinforcements arrive. We must retreat as soon as possible."

"……I see."

The woman clenched her fists and returned to her squad.

The two didn't lower their voices, and everyone in the team could hear them.

"Everyone, let's take action!"

Someone called out, and everyone seemed a little downcast, walking silently through the passage. If they encountered someone seriously injured, they would step forward to help them up.

Amiya followed among them and saw a little girl swaying as she walked through the crowd, leaning on a wooden stick.

She rushed forward to help her up, only to discover that the little girl was even shorter than her, and her slender arms were so thin that you could hardly feel any flesh, as if they were all bones.
