Arknights? Colonization Ark!

Zhang Miao pierced his head with the broken spear in his hand.

call

The depression and pressure accumulated over these days have finally been relieved a lot.

It has been a long time since he last did any serious work, and his bones are almost rusted after staying in the laboratory for so long.

Compared to pressing buttons and striking beyond visual range, the feeling of huge ships and cannons and real punches is more exciting.

Just when Zhang Miao felt relaxed, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

Ok?

He adjusted his vision mode and the entire corridor seemed to be filled with some kind of pheromone, which was spreading in all directions.

A sense of foreboding arose in his heart.

Based on the concentration, he quickly found the source of the pheromone.

It was the piece of flesh and blood he placed on the shield, with some spots of blood.

That woman.

Zhang Miao was deeply impressed by the white-haired woman who wielded the two-handed sword. Judging from her physical fitness alone, she had already reached the basic standard of a genetic warrior.

If it wasn't for her poor fighting skills, no, it wasn't because her fighting skills were poor, the opponent's way of exerting force and her posture were very good, but for some reason, I always felt that there was something awkward when she was chopping people.

But now is not the time to worry about this, the other party has already escaped. Although Zhang Miao doesn't know what this pheromone is transmitting, the speed at which it is emitted is a bit too fast, and it cannot be allowed to continue.

Holding up the shield, Zhang Miao reopened the rear door of the armored vehicle. Yelena was looking at something in the passenger seat. It seemed to be a batch of scientific research documents related to Originium magic purchased from Longmen. The explosion and battle outside just now did not affect the inside.

"Yelena, come and help me freeze this."

This piece of meat has been out of the body for more than half an hour, but it still retains a very high level of activity and has terrifying regenerative power.

The fatal injury was recovered in just a few seconds.

I really don’t know why that woman ran so decisively.

"What is this?"

Yelena looked at the strange piece of light blue flesh and blood with some disgust. She really didn't know how this guy could put such a thing in front of a girl without any feeling.

She used her Originium skills and quickly froze it.

The emission of pheromones soon stopped, but I don’t know whether those that have already been emitted will be degraded by the atmospheric environment.

There might be trouble, who knows.

"I don't know. I'm just wondering, has Bodracasti ever told you anything like that?"

Yelena thought about it and shook her head. She didn't remember her father ever saying that there was such a disgusting thing in Terra.

But Terra was just like a garbage dump; dirty things could pop out from the corners at any time. Zhang Miao had gotten used to it. He hoped that Tallulah could face Kasheina properly. He didn't want to hear that Lexington had locked the two of them up in a small dark room.

Zhang Miao asked Yelena to open the car refrigerator and put the frozen meat in it. When they arrived at Rhodes Island, they would ask Kal'tsit and the Doctor what it was.

The world always has something new to offer him.

Then the sound of tires rubbing against the ground was heard again, leaving only corpses on the ground.

And the other side

After leaving the battlefield, Skadi quickly tore off a piece of cloth to wipe the blue blood from the wound on her lower abdomen, then tore off the cloth and the blood-stained deep-sea hunter uniform and burned them together with fire.

His originally stern face now showed a hint of anxiety.

How to do how to do.

The blood of the deep-sea hunter will attract the sea monsters. I was so busy running that I forgot to deal with the meat.

However, she ran away in an emergency. If she stayed where she was, more blood might be shed.

Normally, the people on the land were backward and weak, and no one expected that such a capable fighter would appear today.

Now is not the time to feel sorry for herself, she must find a way to solve those problems.

In fact, Skadi didn't know how serious the consequences of being injured on land would be, so she just kept the habit of staying in the water.

In the deep sea, as long as a deep-sea hunter is injured, even if it is just a little bit of blood, it will cause siege from the sea creatures within a hundred miles in a very short time.

If they cannot leave the battlefield in a short period of time, even they will die under the endless siege of the sea.

The Agors in the sea are having such a hard time fighting. If Hai Si comes ashore, it will be the worst news for both the Agors and the people on land.

Sitting in front of the fire, Skadi used the wooden stick in her hand to poke the burning cloth inside, and the red and yellow firelight reflected on her pensive face.

It looks as silly as it can be.

Should I continue to find a way to get to Agor, or...

I should go back and check, maybe that person has already left.

After making sure that everything was burned clean, Skadi stood up, not caring that her uniform was already tattered from being cut so many times and that large areas of her smooth skin were exposed, and rushed back to the previous battle site.

The longer you wait, the greater the potential for harm.

But unfortunately, when she returned, the man was no longer there. There were only corpses all over the ground and a few Sarkaz mercenaries who had returned.

They looked at Skadi and said nothing, just lowered their heads and searched for something among the pile of corpses.

Maybe they are here to collect the bodies of their companions, or maybe they are here to collect equipment.

Death is a frequent visitor here. No matter what, the dead are gone, but the living must move on. These demons have no time to stay where they are and feel sad.

This kind of emotion is too luxurious for them.

Chapter 52: I am the incarnation of Ursus, the immortal black snake, Kosice

It has been seven days since Kashena came to this city.

During this week, Tallulah took her to every corner of the city, from the steel foundry in the industrial area to the building module processing plant, from the waste solid and liquid recycling system in the living area to the large library where the two were currently.

"How interesting, I thought he would add their own history here."

Kashena has praised the design of this city more than once. This is not a nouveau riche ostentatious place, nor are there so many unnecessary luxurious decorations. Every inch of land is filled with a people-oriented atmosphere.

But the more this happened, the more confused she became.

Why?

What do the Terrans have that could make the other party value it to such an extent?

This is no longer a great blessing from heaven. Even the holy city of Lateran only occupies a limited area.

She couldn't think that the Sakotas were good girls who could stay in one place safely. They were just subject to some restrictions that others didn't know about.

To this end, she tried to find some clues in the library, perhaps she could see the scaly claws of the legendary ancient civilization here.

But found nothing.

There are many history books of the Terran countries here. Kashena recognized them at a glance. Most of them were local translations from Ursus, as well as a few foreign translations and highly subjective personal compilations, which should have been written by the rescued infected people themselves.

In many paragraphs, you can see a large number of annotations and other people's opinions projected next to them. This library can be said to be the largest building with the largest traffic in the city, and the collection of books here is still being added to.

After hearing the other party's question, Tallulah also shook her head

"I asked this question before, and he said it's not the right time yet, and he's not ready to show those things to everyone."

After confirming that the other party was not lying, Kashena felt helpless and simply handed the book to the drone that had been waiting beside her and asked it to put the book back on the bookshelf.

"Tell me, what exactly did he want to do by having Balalaika inform me of the news here?"

After receiving the letter, she thought that the guy was under duress and had written the letter to trick her, but after receiving the news that the Snowfield garrison had been defeated head-on, she decided to come and take a look in person.

But what I didn't expect was that the content of the letter had actually reduced the exaggeration here as much as possible.

She didn't think that the other party asked her to come here just to show off or kill her to vent his anger.

"What he wanted me to ask was...

what do you?"

When Zhang Miao learned from Bozhukasti that black snakes did not exist in this world, a thousand alarm bells went off in his mind.

The Empire's research on psychic powers was confidential, and what was written in the books were just the basics and terms. Even he only knew a little more than others, such as how to blow a psychic's head off faster.

As for the virtual realm, there is no need to mention it. In the early days, there were even a large number of people in the country who believed that psychic power was nothing more than a rumor of witchcraft.

Until they discovered a virtual planet.

For this reason, Zhang Miao urgently wanted to know whether he was sitting on a mine that could explode at any time. If so, he might have to be ready to run away at any time.

So he went around trying to find out the news about the Immortals, even if it was a guy like Black Snake who was marked as a dangerous unit, he had to take the risk to contact him.

But the Emperor Penguin on the Longmen side was stubborn and refused to reveal any information.

"What am I?"

Kashena seemed to have heard some very funny joke. She let out a low laugh from her throat, and a black aura that was imperceptible to the naked eye seemed to begin to emanate from her body.

"Of course I am Ursus!"

Looking at Kashena who seemed to be moving strangely, Tallulah seemed not to care.

"I advise you to be more rational. If there is any movement here, both you and I will be in danger of death."

"And there's no need to keep playing tricks here. You're not as powerful as you describe yourself to be. If you really are the incarnation of Ursus, then why don't you just replace that high and mighty emperor and make this country follow your ideas? Wouldn't that be faster?"

"Or do you, a monster, still have a little bit of respect for the emperor?"

Zhang Miao didn't believe in such nonsense as the embodiment of national or ethnic will. If that were the case, then every member of Terra would be a black snake.

When Kashena heard Tallulah's question, she was not angry. Instead, she took the new book handed to her by the robot, flipped through it, and answered Tallulah's questions.

"I never care about the opinions of ordinary people, whether they are nobles or emperors, I don't care."

"If someone else asked me these questions, I would ignore him, but you are different, Tallulah. I am willing to answer your question."

As she spoke, Kashena looked up at Tallulah, with a hint of fanaticism in her eyes.

"I'm not lying to you, Tallulah. I am the incarnation of Ursus, but I don't represent any country, any nation, or even an empire. I am... the soul of Ursus."

"I know you have many prejudices against me. You think I am arrogant, advocate violence, war, massacre, glory, despise the lower classes, persecute the infected, and crave expansion. You think I am a demon parasitic on Ursus, trying to lead this country to destruction."

"But have you ever thought about why I am like this?"

"Let me tell you, Tallulah, you've already given me the answer.

Because I am the subconscious of everyone in Ursus.

Undead Black Snake

Kosice! "

"Why am I so arrogant? Because Ursus people are arrogant by nature!

Why do I advocate violence and war? Because Ursus itself is intoxicated with the dividends of past wars and does not want to wake up!

Why do I despise the lower class people? Because the Ursus nobles look down on the lower class people, and even those oppressed lower class people themselves think they are inferior!

Why do I persecute the infected? Because everyone in Ursus has chosen to persecute the infected, even the infected themselves were doing the same thing before they became infected!

Why do I yearn for expansion? Because in the subconscious of everyone in Ursus, they all believe that foreign wars and plunder are the best way to grow and develop! "

"I, Koschei, the immortal black snake, am the embodiment of the subconscious of the entire Ursus Empire society. It is all the people in this country who have made me who I am!"

"As for why I was born, this may be an eternal mystery, my dear Tallulah. Maybe one day you will find the answer yourself."

Chapter 53: The Eve of the Approaching Storm

Kashena tried to see a hint of shock or anger on Tallulah's face.

To her disappointment, although Tallulah was a little surprised, she quickly controlled her emotions.

"I thought you would be angry about this. You used to hate such remarks."

Tallulah shook her head

"This doesn't mean anything. Humans are chaotic creatures. Everyone has a dark side. As long as they can maintain their sanity and know the meaning of their actions, they will not be deceived by you."
