Arknights, but the family has fallen again

If it was Faust who learned of this, then the subsequent leak of information would have been even more natural, and Ott would have immediately revised this part of the plan.

"That's right! My partner! Another me!" Mephistopheles was in high spirits and completely forgot that he was in the middle of a street fight. He was still thinking about "introducing new friends" to Faust.

"The other... Mephistopheles?" Faust hesitated, but quickly said, "Now is not the time to discuss this, Mephistopheles. Let the herd entangle that demon!"

As he spoke, Faust raised his crossbow.

Although it took some brain training to connect Mephistopheles' "other self" with the secret of Kosciuszko's immortality, it was enough to plant a nail in Wei Yanwu's consciousness.

When he realized that this nail needed to be dealt with, Wei Yanwu naturally thought of the best "hammer" he had ever seen.

Facing Faust's reaction, Mephistopheles was full of confidence. He proudly said, "My partner and I are invincible!"

The accessory Ott equipped Mephisto with was the universal green accessory, the Healer's Pendant. Its simple +15% health healing bonus was extremely useful for players in the early stages of the game.

Mephisto raised his skull-capped spellcasting unit. The independently multiplied healing bonus provided by the accessory allowed the infected healer to continue converting the infected into violent hosts more quickly, efficiently and economically.

"Fight for me and Sasha!"

At times like this, I never forget to quote Faust...

However, Mephistopheles' voice made the front line somewhat unstable.

"That bastard is trying to do witchcraft again!"

"Evil little devil!"

"May you be sewn to death in the belly of a beast of burden!"

This behavior, which is almost equivalent to sacrificing one's own people in the battlefield, is indeed somewhat uncomfortable.

But no matter whether the newcomers of Longmen are willing or not, Mephistopheles' "cure" almost brutally stimulates the growth of lesions in their bodies.

Chapter 145: The Infected Are Shocked

The extreme physical and mental pain and Mephistopheles' command caused these newly violent hosts to charge towards the Guards' line.

Mephistopheles's crazy behavior also attracted Shi Huaiya's attention: "What? That brat is like crazy!"

From a certain perspective, this judgment is not entirely wrong.

Under the education of the black snake, Mephistopheles' already fragile mind has been distorted beyond recognition.

Although Mephistopheles must be held accountable for his evil deeds, the poisoning of his mind by the black snake during his growth is also a factor that cannot be ignored. From this perspective, the black snake must bear considerable responsibility for every person killed by Mephistopheles.

Looking at the battle between the Guards and the Reunion Movement on the terminal, Otto ordered Ace, Scout and the others: "Retreat."

At the same time, he said to the operators around him, "Check the Originium protective equipment and jog as fast as you can. The other teams have already been forced to retreat. We must complete our strategic deployment before the Reunion reinforcements arrive."

The other teams "had" to retreat, meaning you personally gave the order for the micro-maneuvers, right?

On the other side, the sniper operators led by Scout took their leave first, while Ace stayed behind to cover the team members.

He threw a "grenade" with a makeshift marker on it, waved at the two people from Qiecheng, and shouted, "Winter is coming!"

Boneslayer and Kingslayer looked at each other in disbelief, "They're just going to retreat like that?"

The grenade exploded quickly, leaving behind a puddle of white steam on the street. A nearly pure white "cloud" rolled across the ground, transforming it into a land imbued with mythical atmosphere.

A few foolhardy Reunion soldiers curiously poked the liquid nitrogen with their fingers.

"What is this?"

"hiss!"

"It's so cold!"

"But it's okay!"

The extremely cold liquid nitrogen forms a vapor film the moment it comes into contact with body temperature, temporarily isolating the contact between the flesh and the liquid nitrogen.

Obviously, this isolation has limits.

Soon, a pure integrated movement lost its finger in front of the pool of liquid nitrogen.

"My finger!"

"Don't get close!"

The Kingslayer said helplessly, "So it's this winter... We have to take a detour."

Broken Bones refused, saying, "This area isn't that big. It doesn't completely block the entire street, so there's still room to settle on the edges."

"What's more, we can use the building to get through."

And this will obviously cause some conflicts with the locals...

You said you were just borrowing our passage? Are you going to use our property and ask for money later? It's up to you whether I believe you or not!

The troops brought by Bonebreaker and Kingslayer lacked the ability to hide on their own. Under the limited cover of the Kingslayer's fog, Bonebreaker and Kingslayer only brought a few elite and direct descendants.

With such a large number of people, it was clearly impossible for the Longmen residents to immediately recognize the difference in numbers and then give way to them. As a result, even though Ace, Scout, and the others had already evacuated, it was still impossible for this Reunion to reach the battle site smoothly.

Or, according to Otto's plan, should the timing of their arrival be called just right?

Just as a large number of new violent hosts began to rush in, the Guards' position began to waver again...

The dying violent host was thrown out by another violent host under the order of Mephistopheles, and his already dying life ended in mid-air.

No, are you really treating a living person as a dirty bomb?

Under Mephistopheles' intentional "treatment," the violent host's body disintegrated into a fine cloud of dust, which, carrying the host's inertia, scattered towards the Guard Bureau.

"It's Originium Dust!"

Someone immediately said in horror.

The formation of the Guards immediately became chaotic.

How come this trick can be used twice on you Longmen people?!

To be more precise, it was implemented independently twice.

The military and police each felt a small shock from the infected...

Suddenly, a flat, emotionless voice interrupted the Guards' tactical headset: "This is Rhodes Island. We have arrived at the battlefield and are expected to appear at your twelve o'clock position."

Twelve o'clock?

Isn't that right in front?

Right behind the Integration Movement?

Before Shi Huaiya could figure it out, she saw that the already noisy front of the Integration Movement was in chaos.

Apparently, Rhodes Island has arrived.

"Rhodes Island!" Xingxiong shouted excitedly, "Stop those two dwarfs!"

Ah, this... Most people are dwarfs to you, right?

At this time, Xingxiong was leading a group of Guards members to fight with the violent host leaders.

Glancing at the triangular shield spinning like a fan in Xingxiong's hand, Ott's voice rang through her headset: "Understood."

It was as if he was a dedicated reinforcement...

The Guards will collide with the Reunion Movement, and transform from reinforcements to the main force of holding the line, isn’t that your operation! ?

As the two cheese sandwiches formed, the Guards finally saw Rhodes Island and his group.

And the Originium dust-proof breathing masks on their faces were filled with evil aura.

"It's a bit like the one in Ursus..."

someone muttered.

Just like the device worn by the Ursus infected patrol.

call out!

Faust fired another crossbow bolt, pinning another member of the Guards to the wall like a poster. This dealt a cold blow to the Guards, who had been gradually jubilating.

"Medical! Medical!"

Since the Guards were unable to break through the defense line, the sniper operators could not pose a real threat to the Phantom Crossbowmen led by Faust. This kind of poster-posting behavior has occurred several times.

This is also one of the reasons why Ott does not want to bet that "the Guard Bureau will not collapse" - this kind of long-range big daddy has an extremely huge psychological impact on the line-filling troops.

"Ino! Go!" Faust pulled the trigger of the crossbow again and said anxiously.

But Mephistopheles remained confident. He boasted, "I believe that he can lead me to victory!"

Snapped!

Faust cursed loudly, "Wake up!"

"Y-Sasha, you actually hit me!?"

"Get out of here!"

Live!

Faust kicked Mephistopheles, then fired at the Guards again...

Fidea descended from the sky and plunged his knife into the gap between Faust's collarbone. Then, like a ghost, Sharp disappeared into the shadows of the alley again.

Mephisto's eyes widened as the violent hosts grew even more violent.

But he was only guarded by two violent host team leaders.

"Sa-sha-"

A thick fog suddenly enveloped the battlefield. The fog combined with the Originium dust, quickly covering everything in its vicinity with a layer of dew.

Faust opened his mouth and squeezed out a word from his leaking chest: "Run away!"

Boneslayer and Kingslayer have finally arrived! Run with them!

Feeling Mephistopheles' gentle touch, Faust kicked him with all his might and squeezed out another barely audible word: "Escape."

Chapter 146 Congratulations, Coca-Cola

Mist billowed from the edge of the battle, quickly obscuring everyone's vision. Hardly discernible figures moved back and forth in the mist, but anyone with the leisure to listen would have noticed that they were few in number.

Raising the horizon, the old yet brand-new mobile city buildings and the newly built yet dirty and dilapidated shacks blend seamlessly into this milky mist. The chaotic residential areas and the carefully designed mobile prefabricated buildings work together to resist this annoying fog.

Neither the Imperial Guards nor the Rhodes Island operators could find the enemy in this thick fog with their own abilities.

The Berserker Host and the Phantom Crossbowmen, two of their main troops, continued to fight for them. However, after Mephisto had attacked their own men twice in a row, the newcomers to Longmen had begun to seize every opportunity to desert.

Due to the immense pressure on the front lines, the Imperial Guards had adopted a blind eye. As long as the defeated soldiers did not charge towards the Imperial Guards, they would allow these new Dragon Gate recruits to leave.

The guys who turned to selling soda after a failed airdrop were always a minority, and most of the defeated soldiers, even if they were originally from Longmen, would cause a huge incident. Although the Guards' actions could not be called letting a tiger return to the mountain, they did have the feel of letting a rat back in its lair.

It is worth mentioning that Ott’s defense is not under much pressure.

Yeah, why?

very strange?

Despicable person.

Some operators hadn't been here since they rejoined the battle from Rhodes Island. This strategy of splitting up forces to intercept enemy deserters was exactly the kind of military risk Otto had repeatedly stressed was against.

This military adventure undoubtedly brought a new batch of "forced labor" labor to Ote.

Of course, this is not the most important reason.

Most importantly, this will make Otto's behavior of allowing Broken Bones and his group to leave Longmen seem somewhat...unwarranted.

To protect the people of the entire slum from being harmed by the defeated soldiers of the Integration Movement!

It also happens to fit in with Rhodes Island's character.

However, such a military adventure carried out for political purposes... No wonder Ott repeatedly emphasized to Amiya and W: Don't imitate.

For those extraordinary generals who lack Ott's micro-manipulation ability, which is almost like cheating, even if they use this extremely poor military strategy, they still have enough ability to promote the realization of military victory.

In the milky mist, the regicide came to Mephistopheles and Faust.

Because they were relatively close, the regicide could easily see that Faust's lungs were severely damaged. If he didn't receive timely treatment, he would probably be dead.
