I, the undead, save the world with the dolls

"Don't be impatient! Take a look at this!" Sun Yang took out a tablet computer with Rukatiye's front face on it.

This was the data stored in the humanoid's visual module. Sun Yang had captured several of the better camera angles and made them into images. He had been preparing for this moment.

"Ah, yes. This is indeed my face. Yes, that's right. Thank you, Sun Yang. Thank you so much." Rukatiye barely recalled her own face, and she crushed the portrait in her hand with force.

The power contained in the portrait cleared the curse accumulated by Lucatie, and the traces of zombie-like changes on her face gradually faded.

Rukatiye blinked. She hadn't fully understood the current situation yet. Although the curse had been cleared from the portrait, it would take some time for the lost memory and hazy mind to return to normal.

Sun Yang wiped the sweat from his forehead. He finally caught up. If he hadn't remembered her or found her, she would have completely turned into a zombie that invaded others in a few days.

"I seem to have had a dream. I have recovered? Where did the image of me come from?" Rukatiye blinked. Her faded memory and thinking ability were returning quickly, and the dream-like state was dissipating.

She sat up straight, her emerald green eyes staring straight at Sun Yang in front of her.

"Hallucination?" Rukatiye pinched Sun Yang's face, his hand felt very solid. "Not an illusion? You finally came back?! Where have you been before?! You, do you know how long I've been waiting for you?!"

"Fuck your illusion, I really exist. This place is not safe. Pack up and go back to Rumi to talk in detail..." Sun Yang took Lucatier's hand away.

"Ah, well...you're right. It's not convenient to talk here." Rukatiye climbed up drowsily and hung the sword and shield he had placed on the ground on his waist.

It wasn't until Rukatiye sheathed the sword that her spirits gradually recovered. She tilted her head and recalled for a long time, then touched her mouth.

Rukatiye turned around and looked at Sun Yang: "I didn't do anything to you, did I? I can't remember what I did recently."

"I didn't do anything. It's not something worth mentioning. Although you took the initiative, I don't care." Sun Yang shook his head and said.

"Huh? What did I do on my own initiative? I don't think I'd randomly hug anyone and chew on them, unless I really wanted to eat some meat." Rukatiye took off his hat and fanned himself. "Don't be so ambiguous. It's been almost a year since we met. I might have some extreme reactions. Well, that's normal, right?"

"It's just that you punched me when I pinched your face. It's a small matter. If it's for saving you, I would be willing to have an arm chopped off, so it's no big deal." Sun Yang explained lightly.

"I don't think you need to go to that extent... Well, as we meet again after almost a year, I am indeed a little too embarrassed. I thought I could take care of myself, haha, but I ended up like this." Rukatiye scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Thank you for saving me, Sun Yang. To be honest, I really thought I was going to be completely transformed into a zombie. I'm really happy to see you!" Rukatiye's spirits quickly became high.

"Well...actually, I came here to read the notes. Rukatiye, let's talk about this after we go back. Of course, I think the main problem lies with me, so I will reflect on it carefully." Sun Yang naggled a lot to Rukatiye.

"Did you read the notes?" Rukatiye's face turned strange. "That's right, you couldn't have not read them. I've forgotten what I wrote, but there shouldn't be any nonsense in that notebook, right? If I wrote anything, it only represents my personal opinion at the time, not my standard, complete evaluation of you. I still judge people by their mood."

What are you talking about? There's nothing in the notebook. You're really curious about how you evaluate me.

Wait, I think I was selling one bullet for one large piece of scrap? It's only natural that I'd get some weird reviews. I'm a complete profiteer. Luckily Rukatiye didn't see any other arms dealers, otherwise I'd be in trouble.

"Let's talk about it when we get back. You don't want to communicate in this dirty, run-down place full of enemies, do you?" Sun Yang retrieved the drones from the various locations and led Rukatiye back to the campfire. Just as Sun Yang was about to touch the campfire, he felt someone tug at him from behind.

"Wait a minute!" Rukatiye grabbed Sun Yang's arm fiercely. "You're not going to disappear for another year after I return, are you?!"

"It was actually an accident that I didn't come back for such a long time. I should have come back a long time ago," Sun Yang explained.

"Last time you sold me a bunch of weapons and then disappeared. Why don't you sell me the weapons first and then go back to Rumi? My dear Mr. Yang, why don't you give me a round of ammunition before you leave? I'm really afraid of you." Rukatiye said very frankly.

"I, I, uh, mainly, it was due to force majeure..." Sun Yang's heart was unsure as he spoke. He really couldn't refute it. He had indeed said that they would push the map together, but then he had delayed Rukatiye for a long time.

"Give me some weapons and ammunition! Name your price, Sun Yang!" As a member of the Miller Knights, Rukatiye will not lower himself for anything - except good weapons and equipment.

Whether visiting a reclusive master blacksmith or applying for an order from a skilled domestic casting expert, some public relations were required. Even the strict and hierarchical Miller Knights were not immune to this.

After all, weapons and equipment are things that require one's life. If it is easier to get them by saying nice things, then most people will definitely be willing to talk.

Rukatiye desperately pulled Sun Yang to prevent him from touching the campfire. Sun Yang had to activate the power of the power suit to prevent himself from being dragged to the ground by Rukatiye.

"Let go! You broke my arm! I'm really scared of you. What do you think of me? A mysterious carriage that appears once a year? Will the carriage owner rescue a dying adventurer passing by?" Sun Yang shook his arms hard, but Rukatiye was very determined.

"Mysterious carriage owner, please show me your list." Rukatiye responded seriously.

"Puff! Cough cough cough, damn, why is my sense of humor so weird... I, I'm going to get ammunition, I won't leave, I won't leave." Sun Yang was dragged to the campfire by Rukatiye's arm.

"We weren't familiar with each other before, but now I think I can trust you. After all, it's been so long since anyone else has been walking around with automatic weapons." Sun Yang reached out and pretended to pull out a large box from the campfire, placing it on the ground. He opened it with one hand. It was filled with loose bullets of various types, including assault rifle bullets, pistol bullets, and shotgun shells.

Looking at the cold metal ammunition, Rukatiye smiled happily. She loved these things so much.

"Is this what they call a blessing in disguise? I was on the verge of becoming a zombie when someone rescued me, and I even got all this ammunition. Name your price, Sun Yang. I know these things aren't cheap, and besides, you saved my life, so I should do something to repay you for saving my life."

"I don't need you to pay anything. In fact, I just don't trust you very much, so I offered such a price." Sun Yang closed the lid and pushed it in front of Rukatiye.

Seeing Sun Yang like this, Rukatiye grabbed Sun Yang tightly and put on a serious expression: "There is no such thing as free benefits in this world. Are you finally going to ask for something?"

"Can you please let go of your hands when you say that?" Sun Yang felt strange being dragged along. He felt like a prisoner in a detention center.

"No, what if I let go and you run away?" Rukatiye pulled the box towards him.

"Can't you go back to Rumi and find a clean place? Wait, you don't clean my room at all? How can you stay here?" Sun Yang suddenly realized this. Damn, Rukatiye doesn't seem to have any pursuit of a clean environment.

"I usually just use the bed, and I haven't touched anything else... I really haven't moved." Rukatiye also felt that it was a bit unreasonable for her to sleep in someone else's house without cleaning up, so she quickly changed the subject. "Look, this cave is pretty good. If I go back, I'll be stared at by Rumi's people. I think it's better to put it aside and then go back."

"Okay, okay, let's talk here. First of all, Rukatiye. This thing is for you." Sun Yang took out a communication device. "This is a small device I found. You can talk to me by pressing this."

Rukatiye pressed the button, Sun Yang clicked on the window, and point-to-point communication was immediately established.

"You can hear my voice now." Sun Yang's words appeared in front of her eyes and on her communication device. Rukatiye thought about it and could only regard it as a very novel long-distance voice transmission device.

"Can this communicate across the turbulence of time and space?" asked Rukatiye.

"I don't know, but I can use this instrument to locate your position. I promise that if we lose each other again, I will find a location where I can communicate with you as soon as possible." Sun Yang said.

"Then I'll take it. Let's talk about the rest..." Rukatiye grabbed Sun Yang's arm and said seriously.

245 Rukatiye's Negotiation Session

"So you have been through so many things during this period of time." Rukatiye looked at the campfire in front of him and listened quietly to Sun Yang talking about what he had experienced in the past year and why he didn't come.

"Even though you might think it's dangerous or something, I find it quite interesting. You get to meet new people, encounter new things, and even encounter brand new technologies. Even though you're running around everywhere, compared to this chaotic world of time and space, other places seem much friendlier and more approachable."

Sun Yang didn't say much about his base, but just focused on explaining what he did in the Advanced Warfare World and the Fallout World.

"That's great. Now I know where you got these things from. No wonder you're so generous." Rukatiye touched the box beside him. "Do you remember what you said before?"

"We have talked a lot. Which one are you referring to?" Sun Yang asked.

"When we first met, you said you wanted to bring me into the team. But you never took me with you once. I've actually been depressed about this for quite a while."

"I was still dealing with problems in other worlds at that time... You know, things were quite complicated when I went to those worlds." Sun Yang shrugged helplessly, trying to excuse himself.

"Haven't you done too much? You helped this Ains defeat the United States, then helped NCR deal with all the enemies around, and killed all those you disliked... Ha... You are really amazing. Compared to me wandering aimlessly, you have a clear goal wherever you go." Rukatiye kicked the mud in front of him with his toes.

"Forget it. It's much harder for me to replicate my actions in other worlds here. Look at the dilapidated state of this world. Can I find King Pancrad, pull him out of some corner, and let him fix the situation?"

"Ha, if he could solve this mess of chaotic time and space, he wouldn't have to hide." Rukatiye laughed.

"So it's this world that's too terrible, not me. You chose a difficult path, while I chose to leave this world and fight elsewhere. You are much stronger than me."

"Thank you for the compliment. Well, Sun Yang, I'm no longer a human being. I can't afford to die anymore," Rukatiye smiled, then his face darkened. "You saved me, but I don't know what else I can do for you. To be honest, I stopped you mainly because I was in a desperate situation. If this continues, I'll soon have no chance."

"Hey, don't say that. You won't turn into a zombie, I will help you. You will get my support, weapons, ammunition, equipment, and portraits. We just need to be careful." Sun Yang quickly dispelled her strange idea.

"I don't like owing favors to others, and I already owe you a lot. You have rescued me twice. Sun Yang, whatever you need me to do, I will do it for you even if it costs my life. As long as it does not bring disgrace to the name of the Miller Knights, I can agree to it." Rukatiye said firmly.

"Even if you say that, I've already said I'd bring you into the team. If you were my subordinate, I'd have no reason not to help you. It's just that the process wasn't smooth, and there were a lot of unexpected things along the way..."

"But you didn't drive me to do anything. What's the difference between me and not joining? So I owe you twice. My code and creed do not allow me to ignore this, nor do they allow me to be gloating about ignoring this time. As a knight, I must do what I say. Please give the order, Sun Yang. I will fight for my remaining life." Rukatiye said rigidly.

"Aren't you looking for your brother? It's inappropriate to work so hard, right?" Sun Yang asked finally.

"The creed, code, and rules of the Miller Knights have made me who I am today. If I break these rules, I will no longer be myself. Rukatier will not be a glorious knight warrior, but just a despicable villain, a cowardly waste. Finding my family is important, but keeping promises and commitments is equally important." Rukatier of Miller said firmly.

To be honest, it was hard not to have some strange ideas. However, Sun Yang still didn't want to leave himself with too complicated interpersonal relationships. That would be bad, very bad.

"Well, first of all, I need you to not return to the Miller Knights while you serve me in the future, and focus on your work for me. Of course, I will not initiate a war with the Miller Knights. I am happy to provide you with assistance, to help you become stronger and find your family, but I don't want to see you return to the Miller Knights to fight after helping you so much. I cannot tolerate this outcome."

"I need you to serve me for at least ten years, and you can't do anything that harms my interests. I may do something that you may not tolerate. You can question my orders, and I am very tolerant, but if I make a decision, you can't refute it. Is that acceptable?" Sun Yang looked at Rukatiye.

"You've roughly stated these things before. My answer remains the same. I'm no longer dead. The Knights expelled me. I have no problem serving for ten years and following orders. But if it involves physical orders..." Rukatiye nodded.

"That depends on whether you agree or not." Sun Yang blinked.

"Ha... When talking about this, everyone's reaction is exactly the same. I will think about it carefully before making a decision." Rukatiye smiled lightly.

"Then the second thing is, no matter what happens to your brother, no matter what happens to you, promise me that you won't lose the motivation to live. After all, if you die, it will be very difficult for me."

"Isn't this also covered by the first point? I don't want to die easily... Just now, I was on the verge of becoming a zombie after all." Rukatiye said.

"It's just in case, in case you can't get over it. After all, if I make any other requests, either you can't do it or it would be impolite. Do you really want to go find Pancras if I ask you to?" Sun Yang said.

"Your will, sir." Rukatiye's expression suddenly became extremely firm. She stood up quickly and prepared to touch the campfire.

"Stop, stop, stop! Sit down! Sit still!" Sun Yang dragged Rukatiye down. "That's all I ask. Keep these weapons. I plan to train you well."

"You're talking like I'm the Grand Commander." Rukatiye tilted his head.

"You, the captain, are good at giving me chicken soup? In short, if I say I want to train you, I will really train you. I will feed you with a lot of souls! I guarantee that you will be extremely strong!" Sun Yang said it in an exaggerated way.

"Giving chicken soup? Feeding the soul? Why do I feel something is weird..." Rukatiye vaguely felt that what Sun Yang said was ambiguous.

"Stop thinking about it. Let's eat first. After dinner, we'll go back to Rumi to rest and plan our follow-up ideas. Don't rush around like a wild boar." Sun Yang moved his shoulders.

"Hey! I'm not rushing around. I'm also making plans." Rukatiye felt that Sun Yang was mocking her.

"Are you talking about the hammer? Why do you think you're the one? Oh my, don't you still think you are? Why are you so anxious to deny it? By the way, Rukatiye, what kind of food do you like?"

"I, um...it's a little spicy after all. But I seem to have not eaten for a long time, and there is nothing edible here...I just rely on soul power to keep my body moving. I don't really need to rest." Rukatiye touched his stomach.

"That won't do. If you want to work for me, you have to eat well and sleep well. Tell me if you're hungry, and don't force yourself if you're too tired."

Sun Yang opened the window and pulled out two hot fast food meals. There was no particular reason, it was just that many T-dolls loved this stuff, so the T-dolls on duty would make a lot of these set meals.

"But in that case, efficiency..." Rukatiye sniffed, and her not-so-sensitive sense of smell smelled the aroma of food for the first time in a long time.

"I'm definitely more efficient than you. At least I won't go to the trouble of digging a deep pit like honey. Eat, Rukatiye. After you're done, let's go back, take a shower, change clothes, and get some sleep to refresh ourselves before starting a new day."

"I understand, Captain Sun..." Rukatiye wiped her hands on her clothes. The long journey made her gradually care less about hygiene issues. Besides, it was difficult for undead people to be defeated by strange viruses, so it would not affect anything if they were not very clean.

The crispy coating, the hot and tender chicken, and the chili powder sprinkled on top were things Rukatiye hadn't tasted in a long time. She gobbled up the whole fried chicken leg without leaving even a bone.

"I'm not your captain, just call me Sun Yang. But don't call me Ayang, otherwise there will be a quarrel in my family." Sun Yangkan Rukatiye looked like a starving ghost, and simply took out several different kinds of fast food and placed them in front of Rukatiye.

The undead in the Dark Souls world have a truly miserable life. Most of them can only try to find joy in suffering, or gloomily search for ways to use their soul power to lift the curse.

After all, in this shitty world, normal people simply couldn't survive. Not to mention fighting, even getting enough food was incredibly difficult.

Although there are many animals in the natural environment, there are also many messy zombies and enemies. Few people have the time to catch animals and roast them for food.

But at least here in Sun Yang's place, when facing Rukatiye, he still hoped to give her sufficient supplies. So he watched Rukatiye eat three double meals.

"Huff~~Burp~~" Rukatiye touched his bloated belly and burped several times. "It smells so good, so delicious... I've never eaten anything so delicious in my life."

Miller's country couldn't even manage industrialized farming, let alone synthesizing seasonings and spices. Not to mention Miller was constantly at war, so getting good food was a gamble. This generation gap must have been several hundred years.

Sun Yang complained silently in his heart, and after Rukatiye's stomach felt better, he said, "There will be plenty of opportunities to eat it later. Now, let's go back to Rumi."

Rukatiye hurriedly threw the packaging bags and other things into the campfire, and then threw the ammunition box in. Then he firmly grabbed Sun Yang's arm.

"I'm ready, Sun Yang!"

"Okay, that's fine." Sun Yang shrugged and walked towards the campfire with Rukatiye.

***

About half an hour later, Rukatiye was lying on a clean, white bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

"It's so strange, really strange." Rukatiye said after a while.

"What's strange?" Sun Yang's voice came from next door.

"Because I am living the life of my dreams now, but to be honest, it doesn't feel real. I eat delicious meals, can take a long shower alone, and then lie on a clean bed and daydream." Rukatiye said, looking at the ceiling.

After returning to Rumi, Sun Yang took Rukatiye back to his residence.

Sun Yang used the power of modern technology to clean up the dust and dirt in just a few minutes, and then prepared a portable bathing device and a change of clothes for Rukatiye.

Kenshi Base has long been water-free. The base from the Advanced Warfare world is connected to an unmanned automated water plant to provide water for the main base.

Rukatiye walked into his single room, took a long hot bath, then put on a short-sleeved shirt and loose shorts, and lay down on the new bed that Sun Yang had moved out.

"I guess the Miller Knights won't give you a long shower?" Sun Yang was on the other side of the room. He also took a good shower and was thinking about where to go next.

"My country, Miller, is surrounded by various countries and is often caught in war. Only by joining the Knights Templar and making meritorious deeds on the battlefield can one be considered independent. I don't come from a happy family, so I can only rely on my own strength to open up a path." Rukatiye said as he recalled.

"Loyalty to my monarch and my swordsmanship are everything to me. Since childhood, swordsmanship has been everything to me. Although the process was difficult, I never complained. But... it's true, the environment in the Knights Templar wasn't great. It was only through practicing swordsmanship and surviving numerous battles that I earned the position I deserved. But it was indeed tiring. After each battle, I couldn't relax and had to prepare for the battles that would come days or weeks later."

"I think only greedy and corrupt officials can enjoy lying like this." Rukatiye closed his eyes.

"Then enjoy it for a while longer. Go to sleep, Rukatiye, go to sleep. At least now, you don't have to worry about your life safety." Sun Yang said across the partition.

"Well, thank you so much, Sun Yang..." Rukatiye slowly closed his eyes. After wandering the land of Dolan Gurege for over a year, Rukatiye finally fell asleep peacefully for the first time.
