Arknights, but the family has fallen again

As expected, under the infusion of Mephisto's Originium skills, a large number of integrated movements, including the Phantom Crossbowmen, were transformed into "herds" by him.

In other words, "violent host".

Mephistopheles' personality is problematic, but his intelligence is not.

The tactic he chose was actually very simple: pretend to continue attacking the office to attract Rhodes Island's firepower, leave some violent hosts behind to cover the retreat, and then break through the gap in the defense line with Faust.

The only problem with this tactic is... after completing the breakout, Mephisto still has to face the Guards.

The Guards, under Otto's intentional or unintentional command, are no pushovers either.

As expected, the new members of the Reunion Movement, who had no father or mother to love them, ran into this iron wall and became a preview of Mephistopheles.

"It's a ghost! It's Xingxiong!"

Someone shouted loudly. Apparently, he was also a local.

The little tiger was furious and shouted, "Guards! Stop them!"

Then, a solid shield wall slowly advanced on the street, blocking these fleeing soldiers who had no heavy firepower.

But soon, the infected began to use their lives to cast spells.

"Let's fight them!" An infected person painfully squeezed out the last drop of strength from his body, and a powerful fireball blew up an entire line of defense.

However, judging from his own expression, he never seemed to expect that this would be his last time casting a spell.

While commanding the herd to storm the office, Mephistopheles also remotely infused power into the integration movement that had broken out.

Although he had no vision for this, Mephisto was not stingy with his simple vision of causing trouble for Rhodes Island.

This caused trouble for the Guards...

"Be careful! This infected person's intelligence is greatly reduced, while their physical strength is greatly increased! At the same time, their sense of pain becomes dulled!"

It seems that Chen Huijie has shared the information she got from Otto with Shi Huaiya.

The Guards quickly filled the gap in their defenses, but as Mephisto recklessly dissipated his power, more violent hosts would soon be able to tear a hole in their defenses.

By then, perhaps his plan will be realized?

That's weird.

"Ino! What are you doing!?"

In the "blank", Faust's voice was heard.

"Sasha! I'm here to rescue you!" Mephisto said as a matter of course: "RXF7! RF8!"

The two violent host team leaders immediately projected the deadly Originium crystal shell towards the office.

Several heavy-armored operators intercepted them at the right moment, and then, a continuous rain of arrows fell from the arrow platform, directly targeting Mephisto himself.

"Ino! Don't be silly! Bonebreaker and Kingslayer will definitely come! Then I can go back!"

This is obviously a lie.

Initially, in the open plan, Faust, Mephistopheles, and the Sarkaz mercenaries were all creating opportunities for Bonebreaker. It was more like they were covering Bonebreaker's escape after completing his mission, but how could the other way around be possible?

Yet, Faust clearly still harbors some hope for this future—he is not world-weary. Survival, and the ability to live with Mephistopheles, is something he still looks forward to.

Ott has no interest in melodrama.

So he looked at the terminal.

Bonebreaker and Kingslayer were approaching with their teams.

Now that the artillery fire had subsided, the commotion at the office was incredibly noticeable. Not to mention the Bonebreakers and Regicides of the Reunion Movement, Otto, using the drone, even spotted quite a few fearless onlookers crouching by the windows to observe...

It is natural, but now is not the time for them to enter.

The wind howled as near-ground aircraft daringly flew over several elevated platforms. Several Super Terrans ignored the five or six meter drop and leaped directly from the cabin.

When there are almost no "enemies" in the air, the low-earth aircraft itself is a small plug-in.

However, war is never a fair competition. On the contrary, it is an asymmetric game in which both sides constantly cheat.

"Doc Otter's orders are absolute?" Ace laughed at Scout the moment he met him again on the battlefield. "Why didn't we know you were such a flatterer before?"

At this moment, not all elite operators are on the main island.

It would be better to say the other way around, most of the elite operators were dispatched to various places on Terra by Kal'tsit...

"You actually think this is flattery!?" Scout said seriously: "I suspect you are a Reunion spy! Give me an elbow!"

“Sizzle…sizzle.”

"This is Ott. Here are the combat orders for the intruder squad: Block the advance of the short Ursus man wearing a gas mask and the light-footed Reboba woman. Do not kill the target."

Intruders is the temporary team name drawn by Ace in today's lottery.

"Repeat, block the target, don't kill."

PRTS delivered Ott's voice to the two of them in a slightly electronic way.

"Don't kill?" Scout raised his gun and looked down through the scope.

Bonebreaker and Kingslayer also noticed the passing of the aircraft, but due to vision problems, they had not yet discovered the presence of the intruder team.

"It looks like they are enemy reinforcements."

Scout put the gun back on his shoulder and gestured to the other team members to take cover.

"Stop the enemy's reinforcements, not intercept them..." Ace rubbed his chin and said uncertainly, "It sounds like..."

He shook his head and said, "Zipline! Heavy Operators, Guards Operators, follow me!"

Several sniper operators immediately replaced their arrows and fired ziplines at the blind spot of Bonebreaker and his group.

The special arrows drag the tough zipline, firmly nailed to the small building or the ground, constructing a top-down cableway.

Ace took the lead, placing his shield directly on the ropeway and sliding down. The other heavy operators were not as "heroic" as him, and more or less used auxiliary equipment.

As they began to slide, the sound of the cable car finally attracted the attention of Bonebreaker and Kingslayer.

However, the obstructive shooting from Scout and others prevented them from attacking Ace and others who were still on the cable car - although they could not shoot them from the spot.

It seems that until Otto agrees, the reinforcements can only keep standing still "on the way".

Look at it in a positive light, at least they were just heavily armed and blocked the goal, instead of being pushed and pulled by the special forces like a ball, right?

On the other side, Faust was still vaguely expecting new reinforcements.

Since Mephistopheles was ungrateful and just stood there acting out his misery, Otto decided to give them some more intensity.

Chapter 142: Dry Weather

"Eyjafjalla."

"Senior?" The lamb was a little slow to respond to the drone, "Please use me as you please!"

After she finished speaking, her face suddenly turned red, as if she only then realized what she had said.

Faced with this terrible speech, Ott did not react at all. He just used Eyjafjalla literally: "Get on the arrow platform."

"Use the volcano on that Mephisto."

After confirming everything, Eyjafjalla asked in surprise, "You've allowed me to go on field work?"

It seems that she is somewhat self-aware of the way she softly "rejects her application for field work" in response to everything that happens to her.

Of course, Otto really needs an operator who is free to help him with his Originium studies - although this can never be compared with his mastery of Originium before he "lost his memory", and it is bound to be filled with a large number of entries that are full of limitations and even "fallacies".

But it’s better to have it than not to have it.

Ott did not answer the question directly.

Through Eyjafjalla's headset came Ott's command, whose emotion was deliberately concealed by PRTS: "Don't worry about Faust's arrows. Sharp is in place. The spearhead team will entangle the enemy's ranged units."

Ott advised: "Even though Sharp is helping to draw fire, if your body...if something unexpected happens, you still have to retreat as much as possible."

"Senior, I can take care of myself, you just focus on commanding!" said Eyjafjalla.

Finally, Ott said, "In that case, go ahead, little lamb."

The terminal's breathing light flashes.

"...I mean, Eyjafjalla."

"I understand, Senior!" Hearing Otto's nickname for her, Eyjafjalla was a little excited. She responded, "I'll go right away!"

Ott's instructions to the lamb were carried out almost immediately after he designed the tactics.

This leads to an unexpected but reasonable little thing happening: Mephistopheles is still talking to his "air friend" Faust.

When Mephistopheles is in good shape, he might still be a calm chess player. But it's clear that his mental state has never been very stable... Compared to a chess player, perhaps a rider is more suitable for him?

"...I am no longer the same person I was before! Let's go together! We can escape from the Dragon Gate!"

At the same time, Faust, who was still in hiding, heard an unfamiliar female voice amidst the noise: "The temperature is stable, be careful of fire!"

At the top of the office, the arrow platform that already wielded death was now burning with a raging fire.

The flame was so conspicuous that even though it was quite a distance away from the main body of the arrow rest, its strong presence still squeezed out the colors of other things.

volcano.

At a glance, Faust could only barely make out a few human figures holding bows and crossbows, and the petite figure directly below the fireball.

Oops!

Faust subconsciously wanted to shoot, but the cold blade chopped down the moment he raised his hand.

"This road is blocked."

when! ?

Faust was unable to defend himself for a moment, so he had to raise his crossbow and use the guard to block Sharp's weak sword.

"Sasha!"

Following Mephisto's exclamation, several violent hosts rushed towards Sharp in a daze.

But before they could succeed, scorching flames burst out from the huge fireball and hit them like raindrops.

As Mephistopheles tried his best, a magic barrier blocked Faust, but he himself was half burned to death by the continuous rain of fire.

Sharp himself seemed to have taken the opportunity to hide in order to avoid this rain of fire that did not distinguish between friend and foe.

"Another me...where are you?" Mephisto was a little confused.

As the ornament was withdrawn, a feeling of emptiness and suffocation successively gripped his throat.

Faced with such an attack, the hero is almost certain to be under pressure, and if Mephisto goes crazy at this time, it will not be very beneficial to Otto's plan.

Besides, after this wave, they will choose to run away anyway...there is no need to continue to buff Mephisto.

"Ino!"

Have you guys had enough...

Ott pinched the Jingming acupoint painfully.

Faust was about to say something when he was interrupted by Mephistopheles: "Ahahaha! Sasha! They're anxious! Why didn't they use such a powerful sorcerer before?"

Accompanied by groans that only made Otto's head hurt, Mephisto completed a self-healing operation, healing only the surface of the wound. The burn was covered by a layer of rapidly growing skin, and a closer look might reveal a clue. And the smell of barbecue was even more lingering...

Mephistopheles He is forcing a smile.

The loss of the jewelry, the silence of his "second personality," and the physical pain had already dealt him a considerable blow. Now, he was just showing off in front of Faust.

While directing the herds, Mephistopheles was also commenting on Rhodes Island's front line: "Look, because of our strong attack, they're starting to retreat again!"

It's true that you're tracking back, but the main purpose is to make your plan succeed.

Ott switched to the terminal interface and instructed Warfarin via PRTS, "Give the Midwinter soldiers a intensive training of this formation. We'll need it later."

Previously, in order to establish contact with Warfarin privately and bypass Kal'tsit's blockade, Ott gave the task of training the Ursus militia to Warfarin instead of Dobin.

"Wow!" The Blood Demon was startled by the sudden voice coming from the radio.
