Arknights, the Angel of Justice is waiting for level 16

"..."

Surtel did not answer Froststar's words. She just raised the giant sword with a solemn face and began to mobilize the holy star flame in her body, preparing to burn the Carters girl completely.

"Froststar, goodbye."

The sword fell, and this time Surtel had no intention of deflecting it.

But just when Frost Star's body was about to be pierced, a silver stream of light wrapped around her and instantly transferred her to another place.

"This is……"

Surtel was very familiar with this color. She turned around excitedly and just happened to see the figure she had been thinking about day and night, standing quietly not far away.

"Sarter, long time no see, I'm back."

Since Ji Luo came to this world, he has never been separated from Surtel for such a long time.

Although Ji Luo tried to endure it again and again, he couldn't help but shed tears when the Sarkaz girl threw herself into his arms and hugged him with all her strength.

"Wow... Ji Luo, you... are finally back."

Surtel has always been strong and indifferent, but at this moment, too many emotions poured out of her heart and she became unlike herself.

She had so many things to say to him, and all of a sudden she didn't know where to start. She hugged him tightly, as if she was hugging her whole world.

"Ji Luo, there can't be a next time!"

"Okay, no more."

Ji Luo smiled and nodded, giving the girl an affirmative answer.

After hearing his words, the Sarkaz girl not only did not stop crying, but cried even harder.

She...really waited too long.

From the day Ji Luo left, she never returned to the place where they lived before.

She didn't dare and didn't know how to face the fact that Ji Luo's "home" was gone.

The emptier the room is, the more it reflects the beauty of the past and the loneliness of the present.

She will never leave Ji Luo again, even if she dies!

"Sarter, thank you for your hard work."

Ji Luo was also somewhat relieved. If he had not sensed that Surtel was in the battle and had not used his spatial power to rush to the battlefield, he might not have even seen Frost Star's body.

"Don't worry, I'm back, everything will be fine~"

"Yeah! I know, I understand."

Surtel cried for a long time before she finally calmed down. She knew that Frost Star's condition was very bad and needed Ji Luo's treatment, so she stopped pestering her lover.

"What should Froststar do now?"

"It's okay. First implant the remains of the evil star, and then transform her into my apostle. The problem will be solved."

Ji Luo walked to the unconscious Frost Star, reached his hand to his back, and directly pulled out the "Remains of the Star of Disaster" that Ferdinand had implanted in his body.

After a burst of pain that tore flesh and blood, the holy flame quickly ignited and soon wiped out Ji Luo's wounds.

"This piece of the remains of the evil star is indeed worthy of absorbing my flesh and blood. The quality is simply perfect."

Ji Luo lifted up Frost Star's body and embedded the "Remains of the Disaster Star" into her spine between her shoulder blades.

Everything that happened afterwards was already familiar. Ji Luo released the blood of the star spirit again and transformed Frost Star into his sixth apostle.

But unlike the previous girls, Frost Star's body is too weak, and the transformation process cannot be too intense, otherwise she will not be able to hold on.

If there is even the slightest mistake, the Carters girl will instantly collapse and turn into dust, which cannot be put back together.

"It seems that she will sleep for a long time..."

Ji Luo felt very distressed about what happened to Shuang Xing.

She had experienced too much darkness and pain, and these memories tormented her, causing her to fall deeper and deeper into the quagmire of revenge.

After they met, it was perhaps the happiest time of her life, but at that time she did not understand what the differences in beliefs and consciousness meant.

So those memories became a wound in her heart.

"Froststar, everything has changed. There will be no more...pain."

Ji Luo placed his palm on Shuangxing's forehead, as if he was blessing her, or as if he was making a vow to her.

In her sleep, the Carters girl showed a peaceful smile, as if she had found a safe place to stay.

Chapter 189: What is a professional team?

The secret return of Ji Luo and Chen did not cause any waves in Longmen. After all, in the minds of most people, they had never left...

But people who knew the inside story had been keeping a close eye on them. Just as Chen passed the checkpoint and entered the Longmen territory, Wei Yanwu's car arrived to pick her up.

After wandering around for half a year, Chen originally wanted to take a good rest for a few days. But before she had time to chat with Shi Huaiya, she was pulled over by her uncle to give a report.

With Chen's disappearance, the pressure fell on Ji Luo. Feng Di was the first to come to him, and his reason was legitimate -

Before, Bagpipe replaced Ji Luo to maintain stability in the downtown area, but those far-reaching decisions, each of which affected the lives of hundreds of thousands of people, Bagpipe didn't dare to make any decisions at all, and they all were put on hold until he came back.

Now, Ji Luo, as the boss, has finally returned. Feng Di came to take over as soon as possible without any attachment to power.

No, it shouldn't be said that she was nostalgic, but that Bagpipe was really scared. She was a simple and easy-going person, and was a good fighter on the battlefield, but handling government affairs was like being tortured.

And to be honest, every matter that was placed on Bagpipe's desk and required her to deal with was of major policy importance, and she really was not capable of taking on this responsibility.

"Ji Luo, I won't do anything anymore. You should take charge of the Lower Town. I've been under so much pressure lately that I'm about to collapse. I'm losing my hair every day."

Fengpi reached out and scratched her hair, and sure enough, several orange strands of hair fell out. The usually cheerful girl looked a little depressed, and you could imagine how miserable she was.

"The Snake Shed Organization has been causing trouble in Longmen recently. The Lower City District is restless and the Upper City District is in turmoil. I haven't had a good night's sleep in the past half month."

"Well, you can take off your burden first."

Ji Luo looked at Fengpi's pitiful expression and realized that she really couldn't hold on any longer.

As a military man, Bagpipe acts decisively and straightforwardly, but governing a country is different. That is a way to govern the people, which is not taught in schools.

"Bagpipe, I plan to hand over the affairs of the Lower Town to Chen. What do you think?"

"what?!"

Feng Di never expected that Ji Luo had discussed this matter with her. What could she have a say about it? Was this a decision made between the two of them through internal communication?

"Mr. Chen, isn't she going back to the Guards Bureau?"

"Well, on the way back, I talked to Chen. Since she handed over the Longmen Guard Bureau to Shi Huaiya, she will not interfere again, and she has no intention of returning to her post."

Ji Luo had never been interested in gaining power or status in Longmen. He just saw the shadow of his hometown after coming to this city.

From the beginning to the end, he just wanted to change the living conditions of ordinary people in the downtown area and let them live like human beings, nothing more.

"For the Lower Town, I have done everything I can. What follows is the accumulation of time and the continuity of policies."

"But...everything in the Lower Town was created by you."

Bagpipe will never forget that the downtown area has gone from a mess to gradually getting back on track, and Ji Luo can be said to be the absolute core.

But now, Ji Luo actually wanted to leave and hand over all the power in his hands to Chen.

"Forget it. Ji Luo, I don't understand these things. I just need to do my job as a deputy."

"Okay, just continue with your previous work. I'll leave Chen to you from now on."

The more Ji Luo interacted with Fengpi, the more he felt that she was wise but foolish. Although the Vaifan girl looked simple-minded, she could always grasp the key points of things.

After finishing the business, Ji Luo praised Baggio for his work. Baggio did not refuse this time and accepted his praise with peace of mind.

After Bagpipe finished his report, he walked out happily, and Angelina came in next.

In the early days, the Wolper girl had been doing the injection work of the Dawn Potion, and drug addicts in the downtown area were completely eradicated due to her efforts.

The two most difficult aspects in controlling addictive drugs are the production stage and the demand side.

After Angelina eliminated the demand side, she removed the soil in which it grew, but it did not completely solve the problem.

Afterwards, Angelina was assigned by Bagpipe to do the cleaning work. After half a year of hard work and suffering, until recent days, addictive drugs finally disappeared from the downtown area.

"Angelina, thank you for your hard work. Your work is perfect and has lived up to my expectations of you."

"I am honored to accept your compliment, but this honor has never belonged to me alone."

When the Wolper girl first arrived at Longmen, she was still a reckless and restless girl, but after half a year of growth, she has almost completely changed into a different person.

The injection of Dawn Drug is essentially a trial without human involvement, and the 70% mortality rate makes drug addicts terrified.

But at the same time, this cruel yet hopeful job also makes those who perform it feel the heaviness of life, the ugliness of human nature, and the echoes of their own hearts.

Gamblers and drug addicts are undoubtedly the ugliest alienation of human desires. Angelina's experience in the past few months may be more shocking than a normal person's entire life.

So, what Ji Luo saw at this moment was a determined and mature girl.

Angelina stood up straight and bowed to him solemnly, tears glistening in her eyes.

Since she met Ji Luo, she has really experienced so much——

More than five figures of lives were 'killed' by her directly or indirectly.

The wails of those figures burned to ashes by the flames often echoed in her dreams.

Countless assassinations and attacks, more than one near-death experience, never broke her down, but made her stronger.

"Relax a little and don't be so hard on yourself."

Ji Luo raised his fingertips, and a wisp of white flame vaguely emerged. He wiped it across the side of the Wolper girl's face, completely erasing the scar that had never faded.

"Angelina, you did a great job."

"Ok!"

Although Angelina tried to hold back, she finally burst into tears.

After going through so much, the girl could finally hold her head high and say without fear that she was worthy of Ji Luo's trust.

At that time, she came to Longmen to deliver a letter, and got on Ji Luo's pirate ship in a daze. Then she was entrusted with an important task and became one of the people who actually controlled the lower city area.

Half a year later, she had become a part of Longmen's history, fully responding to Ji Luo's expectations.

She... could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Giro, Texas, Exia, and Croissant have made great contributions. Without them, I would have died long ago."

"I understand, and I will give them the credit they deserve."

Ji Luo smiled and stroked the top of Angelina's head. The Wolper girl breathed a sigh of relief, and the tension she had been feeling was completely gone.

To be honest, when Ji Luo was around, he took care of everything, so Angelina, Feng Di and Ye Ban didn't feel too much pressure.

But during the six months that Ji Luo was away, they became the decision makers. The fate of millions of people rested on their shoulders, and the pressure almost made them collapse.

Fortunately, these dark days are finally over.

"Angelina, go and rest for a few days. From now on, I want you to coordinate the medical issues in the downtown area and try to get the sick people treated.

"Okay, I'll go back and think about it and do some research in the Upper Town."

Angelina did not shirk or hesitate. After staying in the downtown area for such a long time, she cared less and less about personal honor and disgrace. She always wanted to help more people and let them live like human beings.

"Great, I fully support it."

When Ji Luo heard that Angelina accepted the task, he breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, Dorothy and Hemer, whom he brought back from Columbia, were good at scientific research, but they were absolutely clueless when it came to clinical treatment.

As for Ifrit, she was a research subject before. Now that Ji Luo has solved her problems, she has become an unruly but happy and noisy "little fire dragon".

After all, he is just a child, so all we can say is that there is a lot to look forward to in the future.

After Angelina left, the Penguin Logistics trio came in. Croissant and Exia were still carefree optimists, but Texas looked a little uneasy.

"Thank you Texas, Exia, and Croissant for everything you do."

Ji Luo hadn't seen Texas for a long time. At this time, Miss Rupert had completely lost her previous indifference and instead showed an expression of helplessness.

"I...we are only doing this because of the boss's orders. This is an agreed thing."

"Let's be honest. My promise is very valuable. Do you want me to get you a certificate that allows you to speed and run red lights?"
