Arknights, but the family has fallen again

She quickly came up with a set of rhetoric "targeting" W: "Speaking of which, Sarkaz, have you ever thought about settling down?"

"Stability? We can't do anything except exchanging blood for money."

us?

Draco caught on to this, and she adjusted slightly, saying, "Chernobog's future will require its own dedicated military."

"Signing a contract for fifty or a hundred years is still exchanging blood for money."

"It's just that this time, you have a place to stay, a place you can return to."

Chapter 56 I told you to leave, why did you really leave?!

"Damn, this scoundrel is quite good at talking!" W thought to himself.

“Paying a rosy picture is a fundamental quality of a leader.”

"Then why didn't you draw for me?!"

"I'm quite sure you've already eaten someone else's cake."

W frowned and paused, as if he was somewhat moved by the Dragon Girl's proposal, and phantoms seemed to appear in his eyes.

But in the end she gritted her teeth and said, "Just say it!"

It seems just a little bit off.

Amazing acting.

The dragon girl smiled, then turned back to the fireplace.

……

Black Snake finally told the same lie, saying that in order to get Chernobog running again, he had to blackmail Longmen and would not actually crash into it.

The final tasks assigned to them were just that: act as bait and assist Broken Bones in retrieving Misha.

However, Black Snake paid an additional commission.

In order to protect Faust, Frost Star promised the small treasury of the banks in Qie City, but Black Snake paid another sum in red gold.

"What's so great about being rich?" W kicked another stone.

"Strictly speaking, Black Snake is more than just rich," Ott replied. "I've already investigated. She was once a very powerful duke."

"In the western part of Ursus, Grand Duke Koschei was the most influential person in the region before he was killed by Tallulah."

"In the modern Terran political ecology shaped by mobile cities, her authority in her own territory surpasses even that of the Tsar."

"Shut the hell up! I'm not asking!" W cursed again.

Soon, she calmed down and said, "You are also in the Longmen slums now, right? Is it really okay?"

"What could be the problem?"

"You only have one team with you. Based on physical strength alone, you can't even beat Alina!"

Ott avoided the awkward question: "Longmen also has its own armed forces."

"But Da Yan's ability to control the mobile city is almost the strongest! That guy surnamed Wei, he only has a group of police officers at his disposal, right?"

This is a classic "yes and no" question. Wei Yanwu can indeed only use the Guard Bureau, but he can use more than just the Guard Bureau.

Since the cards in his hand were still the same, the decision made by Black Snake was somewhat familiar: to sneak into the city through the mechanism of accepting refugees through the gantry.

Once they get in, they will definitely gather in the slums.

However, the original purpose of the Reunion Movement's first wave of offensive was to test the reaction speed of the Lungmen Guards, and the personnel used were all the most worthless in Black Snake's eyes - she even had the idea of taking over the Sarkaz mercenaries after W died.

Now, the Black Snake's first wave of attacks has added another tactical goal: to spy on Otto's intelligence.

And this is a new mission that goes beyond the scope that Froststar had previously revealed to W.

Moreover, it seems that "Tallulah" only informed W of this mission.

"Talulah" used a very straightforward statement, hinting to W, who was "doing things for money", that as long as she could obtain accurate information about the Ultra Originium skills, she could use Mephisto as a pawn.

For this, "Tallulah" was willing to pay an additional four times the commission.

"She seems to be very afraid of you, but if she doesn't agree, you won't be able to enter our bodies at all, right?"

"No." Ott told the truth, "Even if you don't agree, I can still force my way in."

"...Can't you just lie a few more times to put my mind at ease?"

"Well, practically speaking, I won't go in if you don't agree."

"...What does that mean in practice?" W paused and asked.

"Forcibly taking over your body without your consent will most likely cause permanent mental damage."

"...You mean, you don't want to hurt me?" W was stunned.

"That would significantly undermine your value in every sense of the word."

"O! Te!"

"You must ask it yourself."

"Then why can't you just lie to me? Damn it, you lied so much before, and now you're being so honest that it's infuriating!?"

Ott changed the subject: "You know, lying is a very advanced brain function. It's difficult to use when you're not fully awake."

"Are you sleepwalking then?!"

The topic has actually been changed! ?

"From a physiological point of view, you should be sleepwalking."

"Ever since I took over, your actions based on your own consciousness can be considered a form of sleepwalking."

"Speaking of dreams, I'm not sleepy at all right now..."

Perhaps because of the possession by Otto, W was in an unusually relaxed state, and now her thoughts were extremely divergent.

Perhaps this is why Otto can change the subject so easily?

"Want to sleep?"

"I do think so, the border area is quite interesting... Wait, do you have a solution?"

"Yes, I have."

"Do you think I'll fall asleep just because you say 'go to sleep'?!"

"More like long-pressing the power button."

"What a bullshit metaphor! My body is not your terminal!"

"about this issue……"

"Wait! I don't want to know! Shut up! I should kick you out!"

"By the way, if you really want to kick me out, my desire to stay will still have an additional impact. In other words, you don't actually..."

"Shut up!"

As the emotions erupted, my mind suddenly became quiet again.

But what follows is a kind of emptiness, which stems from powerlessness, and this powerlessness is the reaction to omnipotence.

When possessed by Otto, W often had the illusion that she could do anything and kill anyone.

But Otto told her clearly that it was simply because Otto would never do something that he couldn't do...

But now, those certain things... have become false again.

W couldn't help but shudder.

Although her face seemed to become more intelligent when Otto was in charge, that was simply the result of the mad mask being replaced by contemplation.

In the fierce battles and short confrontations, W was always the winner and she was very smart from beginning to end.

But tactical victory does not mean strategic success.

Madness is just a mask; confusion and trance are the underlying colors of the Sarkaz girl—the underlying colors since the collapse of the Tower of Babel.

And Otto's possession almost swept away this confusion and trance.

Although W could not see into Otto's heart, the confidence in Otto's heart also came to W.

He had a blueprint, and on the blueprint, W vaguely felt his own position, and felt... Theresa's position.

"..."

Damn, was he really kicked out?

After a long silence, W stretched lazily towards the double moons, and the beauty on her chest swayed slightly.

"W, I want to come in."

The agency agreement is suddenly linked again.

"Do you know you're wrong?"

A wild smile appeared on W's lips.

Chapter 57: First meeting, but meeting again

"...Honestly...I don't feel anything..."

"...You're lying...Isn't that all in vain..."

Both voices sounded familiar.

Yelena frowned, her eyebrows turned up, and then the strange touch made her realize in an instant: she was not in a familiar environment!

Yelena immediately rolled out of her lying position, put her feet on the ground, and faced herself in a squatting position.

She used one hand to assist her movements, while the other was hidden behind her back. The pitch-black Originium seeped from her body to the outside world, mixed with the moisture in the air, and instantly condensed into a dagger in this hand.

As the Originium stirred painfully within her body, her pressure rose.

The lone moon was about to cross the line and head to the other side of the horizon, and it was almost dawn.

"Ah, the White Rabbit is awake." W leaned over, a playful expression on his face. "Even the newbies are awake, and that stinky otter is still resting his head on his lap?"

Is he the new leader of the mercenaries?

Froststar leaped back, dagger in hand.

She looked around and asked, "W!? Where is this place!?"

This seems to be a settlement that is undergoing a revival.

The square, used for public affairs, was surrounded by a church, a tavern, and a building under construction that was probably a government office. In the center of the square, a broken statue stood in front of a dead tree. From time to time, crows landed, leaving white spots on its mottled and faded marble surface.

Next to the tavern is a carriage station.

Froststar herself and a group of strange people of all kinds are around the post station.

The infected, Filin, clad in a translucent green robe, was writing and drawing in a notebook. A woman, carrying a greatsword, knelt in front of her, her face as cold as ice. On her lap, a familiar hooded figure slept peacefully, his hands resting on his abdomen. Furthermore, a strange nun knelt and prayed before this bizarre pair...

The ones who looked the most normal were the crazy W and the familiar Elafia!

"Here?" W also took a half step back. She opened her arms and pretended to repeat what Kal'tsit and Ott had said: "This is the end of the dream! The crow's nest!"

She touched her chest with one hand and made an invitation with the other, saying teasingly, "Welcome to...Hamlet."

pat.

Kelsey closed her notebook.

I knew he wouldn't listen...

However, the paper and pen I brought with me before going to bed were successfully projected here! ?

A thought flashed through her mind, a thought that often flashed through Ott's mind: further experiments are needed.

They look like a couple, right?
