Hello, Arknights

Chapter 192: Pioneers of the Past

Outside the detection range of the Integration Movement scouts, silent pursuits and escapes were repeated in the mountains and forests.

The giant wolf's mouth turned over and flew over the snow cliff, and the black mist following behind it immediately followed. However, a waterfall of snow suddenly rose under the cliff, and a hand accurately pinched the black mist while it was drifting in all directions. With a flick of the wrist, several short blades stabbed into the cold sky. Several spells were shattered as soon as they appeared. The huge black wolf immediately jumped out from its hiding place, and the spell protective gear on its body flashed. Then the black wolf growled and completely shattered the tracking spell that was following it.

Zi stood solemnly, the cold wind blowing past her. The two Sarkaz had been chasing her relentlessly since they met that day. The female in red horn was fine, but after the fight, she was sure that the male Sarkaz was a dangerous person, so she chose to retreat.

But for some reason they caught up with me, even though it took two of them working together to pose a certain threat to me.

She could of course try to kill them since their purpose was unknown, but it was risky, with a 40:60 chance of winning. The other side didn't press too hard and seemed to be looking for someone... as if they knew that the person she was chasing was their target.

She hated this feeling. Without the intelligence support of Syracuse, she became a rootless lone wolf, slowly turning from a hunter into a prey.

When she was the country's sharp weapon, her mission was given by the country and she could be brave and fearless. But now she is forced to leave Syracuse, and her mission is naturally abandoned. Now Zi is afraid of death, or rather, afraid of dying absurdly and meaninglessly.

For her, fear of death will naturally make her weak.

Zi sighed, she was worried about her only blood relative… In Syracuse, she was already a dead person, and Lady Sicily would naturally not argue with her relatives, especially since her sister knew nothing about her identity.

At least I have the ability to be self-reliant... I won't die without myself.

At the moment, she was annoyed by the harassment from the two people, so the task of tracking Bai Ge was temporarily handed over to Xuanlang "Zi" - yes, their code name of Giant Wolf's Mouth was the same as Xuanlang, and their real name was deeply buried.

The arrival of Xuanlang Zi meant that the target had taken action, so she had to move as well.

Zi looked around, squinted her eyes at the direction where the black air was coming from, and left decisively. She was already familiar with this area, and she only needed to observe the direction of the white pigeon in secret to decide her own route.

She easily found a commanding point that she had marked before. After such a long time, she could already easily distinguish the white pigeons from other people. It didn't matter if she lost her track occasionally. When Ling couldn't stand the cold anymore, she would light the white flame.

What? Are you asking if the white flame is obvious in the snow forest? Anyway, Zi put all his energy on the white dove and can now distinguish it.

Today, Ling Dengxian originally wanted to borrow two sweaters from Katyusha and Karion, but he soon found out that this was a stupid move. He failed to keep warm in front of Frost Star, and his movements were restricted. He couldn't even turn his arms around, and his clothes were almost torn.

In the end, he could only choose to join the team with Tangled White Flame. It was better than nothing. His teeth kept chattering. Shuangxing was a little surprised: "Although I was a little more serious than usual in order to be ready for battle at any time...but you are exaggerating..."

"I, I am born... afraid of cold. I'm not frostbitten, but the cold is a little unbearable." Ling Dengxian tightened his azure scarf again. His fingertips were numb and painful from the cold.

"Yan people...even though they are so afraid of the cold, they still come to Ursus...are they really just looking for someone?"

"Then you tell me... I'm here, what am I here for?" Ling Dengxian had already stuffed the little sky blue dragon into his arms to keep it warm.

"Isn't it the same reason as when Krisena deliberately committed a crime to find Tarot?" Big Bear interrupted.

"Krisena? Tarot?" Ling Dengxian heard two names he had never heard of before.

"Well, Taro was put in solitary confinement as a spy, and Krisena was caught and put in solitary confinement for deliberately committing a crime in order to inform him of the group's actions...but everyone knows that Krisena likes Taro."

"Action? Confinement?" Ling Dengxian looked at Shuangxing while speaking and found that the latter had a very sad expression.

"That happened when we were still in the mine... Big Bear, have you forgotten not to mention this in front of Big Sister?" Petrova nudged Big Bear with her elbow.

"...Big sis...I'm sorry, I didn't mean to mention Krisena and the others..."

Ling Dengxian probably knew what happened, but Yelena still spoke up to confirm the tragedy:

"If they could hold on for two more days, Dad would be able to save them... Krisena sings very beautifully, but Tarot is actually very afraid of pain."

"Big sister..."

Ling Dengxian had to admit that he had not experienced such a hellish life and he could not fully empathize with them, but that did not prevent him from feeling regretful.

"So... today we are just going to repeat what Mr. Patriot did?" Ling Dengxian looked at the Snow Monster Team.

Big Bear was stunned for a moment: "If you put it that way... it seems so... then wouldn't it mean that we are as powerful as Big Daddy..."

"Those who believe in light are naturally light." Ling Dengxian smiled.

Yelena raised her eyes and looked at him, then smiled softly, feeling that it was very interesting. The temporary joining of a new member also made the Snow Monster Team show more vitality.

But when she thought about what happened by the river, she couldn't laugh anymore...

How can a good person have the potential to become a pervert...

Well, in Yelena's eyes, Bai Ge has potential in that area.

Sometimes, contrasting impressions are not so easy to eliminate.

As the Ursus flag fluttered, another group of Ursus soldiers left on trucks. Mine No. 039 was facing a howling snowstorm, and the infected people here were about to usher in their last winter night.

"Lukasevic! Are you really not going to carry out the execution yourself? Are all the empire's battle-hardened pioneers cowards like you?" They were about to evacuate, and some people felt that they were ready again, so they questioned Lukasevich again.

The worst outcome would be another beating, but there would be no more chance to taunt this elite soldier.

The Ursus man looked at him calmly and said, "Guard the infected well and strengthen patrols. I suspect... someone will attack the mine today."

"It's so funny, *Ursus swear* What's the name of that group, the Reunion Movement, do they dare to come here? Do they dare to fight us head-on? They don't even have a few decent artillery pieces!"

"*Ursus swears* We have already evacuated a lot of people and now there are only a thousand left. We don't have heavy firepower, and they can kill you idiots with their numbers!"

"you……"

"The sixth and seventh patrols have lost contact!" A report from the communication terminal interrupted the quarrel between the two. Lukaszech's face darkened, and his fierce eyes directly scared away the Ursus soldiers.

"What are you standing there for! Go and tell me the message!"

After kicking away the somewhat unbelievable idiot, Lukasech looked out the window. His hundreds of battle experiences made him extremely sensitive to the breath of crisis. Although the current feeling was far less painful than the battle of the Four Emperors, he also did not have the reliable comrades he had at that time. He did not have fire support, phalanx... none of those.

Only with the development of technology, the soldiers' equipment became more sophisticated. It was a pity that his most advanced set of armor was not with him.

Lukasech, holder of the 300 kill medal in the Hundred Battles Vanguard Battalion of the Four Emperors' Tournament, candidate for selection as an internal guard, is currently being demoted for personal reasons.

Although he is extremely disappointed with the current Ursus Empire, he has already been shaped. The empire has given him glory and the first half of his life, so he should go all out for the empire.

"Lukasechi, Lukasechchi, how sad... You are an elite member of the Hundred Battles Vanguard, a hero who fought in the Four Emperors' War for the Empire, but your colleagues don't want you to return to the team... They are taking this opportunity to get rid of you..."

As the infected slaves were driven deep into the mine and the mine was in turmoil, the hidden agent Usa sighed and said that he only regretted that Lukasech did not know how to behave in society, and the rest... had nothing to do with him.

He has his mission, and Lukasech is just a stronger pioneer who has fought many battles. The Ursus Empire can certainly afford to lose him.

Honor, the driving force of fighting, is here.

Hero, meaningless title, irrelevant.

Not to mention that he is a pioneer who has fought in many battles, even a general cannot escape the fate of decline.

Maybe this country really needs to change, the agent thought, and then shrugged.

"It is none of my business."
