Hello, Arknights

“…Failed…”

At the crossroads of the lower city, the white Rupert had his long hair almost completely dyed red, and could only stand with his knife stuck in the ground. Comparing his messy wounds with the injuries from the giant wolf's mouth, the outcome was obvious.

"I can't escape..." The Giant Wolf muttered to himself as he watched the sword light fade away. He then turned to look at the already vulnerable Lappland with a complicated look that finally turned into murderous intent:

"I can't escape. Are you satisfied?"

Lappland's cold body moved: "Ahem... why do you have this expression... when we were inflicting wounds on each other... we were quite happy, weren't we?"

"Madman!" The desperate giant wolf spat out a mouthful of blood and phlegm, stomped hard with his expensive shoes, and walked towards Lappland with a knife in hand.

"'Wolf cub of the Saluzzo family', you did a good job. It's a pity that the Giant Wolf's Mouth couldn't win you over." He raised his hand and grabbed the white wolf's hair, lifted her face and hit her cheek hard with the handle of the knife.

"Madman! Why are you trying to stop me from escaping! Don't you know what Syracuse is like?!" The Giant Wolf wished he could tear her into pieces. Although judging by the sword light, even if he went, the success rate of the assassination would not increase by much, but Lappland, who had no power to resist now, was undoubtedly a perfect target for his anger.

"*Syracusan female derogatory term*! You didn't learn much from your father, what's your worth!"

Lapland, who was thrown on the stained street, grinned and tilted his head to reveal a flamboyant smile:

"You are like a mad beast biting people."

"...Haha, who do you think you are?" The Giant Wolf looked down at them and laughed in anger. "I've changed my mind. It's not too late to escape from Longmen now. You look pretty good. Before you are killed by Madam Sicily, I must sell you to the black market. I don't care whether you can kill them or not. I want to see your expression when you hear that you are being bargained for like a commodity... Can you still be so arrogant?"

"Ahem, my evaluation is... would you like a mille-feuille?" (Syracuse) Rupert attacked suddenly with all his strength and with a flash of sword he cut off the blade of the giant wolf's mouth. A faint line of blood appeared on his collarbone.

The giant wolf's mouth kicked Lappland away, checked the wound, and was still frightened: "You *Syracus swear* can still wield a knife?!"

He was almost there just now. If he hadn't raised the knife in time to block it, the blood line would have appeared on his neck, and it wouldn't have been just a blood line.

"Hahaha..." Lappland sat up in pain and leaned against the wall. Her face was swollen but she was laughing very happily and looked like a madman.

"You're fucking crazy, Laplander Saluzzo!"

"No, no, no, my poor Mille-feuille. It's just that it was really enjoyable this time. I'm very happy now. I just have one regret." Lappland is very energetic now.

"Then die with regret!" At this moment, Giant Wolf Mouth finally understood that this guy was a complete madman. It was impossible for anyone to treat her as a decoration and press her on the bed.

"I regret... that I can't turn you and your men into puff pastry with my own hands." Lappland looked at his anger calmly. The steel bar he picked up casually brought with it the fishy wind blowing from behind the hell gate.

However, what he didn't know was that there was someone who could treat her as a decoration or even a toy and press her on the bed, and he appeared at this moment.

"Roar!!" A breathtaking roar came from behind the wall. The giant wolf's mouth paused subconsciously, and then the broken bricks and stones hit him mercilessly.

The remaining rain soon wet the smoke and dust. The huge blue-black figure exhaled with infinite anger. Its sharp claws could easily crack the bricks and stones just by stepping on the ground. Its blue-black hair was trembling with anger at this moment. Because of the surging murderous intent, she slowly stepped out with pressure, protecting the bruised and battered Lappland behind her.

“…Is this a black wolf?!” Giant Wolf Mouth has dealt with black wolves all his life, but his intuition tells him that this thing can’t be that kind of ferocious beast.

He knew he should run away, but he was sure that he couldn't escape at all. The feeling of being hunted was so real that he was terrified and angry. He had hunted others all his life, and now he was being hunted by a wolf beast? !

"Roar!!" Chi Yu did not intend to oppress him to the point of mental breakdown, she intended to make him collapse physically directly!

"Go to hell!" The giant wolf didn't believe that he would be killed by a black wolf.

Lappland's eyes lit up, and she seemed to be able to see another fierce battle.

Chi Yu lowered his center of gravity, his figure disappeared, and the giant wolf's mouth was horrified. He foresaw the ending the moment the black wolf moved.

Raise your paw and slap it down, it's that simple.

However, the resistance in the Giant Wolf's Mouth lasted for a short while.

The corpse in the giant wolf's mouth was finally smashed against the wall, no longer in human form. Chi Yu waited for the gradually fading rain to wash away the blood on his claws, and then walked towards Lappland step by step.

"Thank you." Lapland could no longer hold on and fainted with his head tilted.

Chi Yu shook his tail, slowly sat down, hugged Lappland in his arms, and whispered to comfort her pain.

Chi Yu had wounds on her body, but they were not from Longmen, and they were not ordinary wounds. They looked... exactly the same as the one from Tobrand. The wounds slowly scabbed over with her breathing, and she needed time to heal.

She couldn't interfere too much, but "it stands to reason" that a powerful adult black wolf appeared in time to help, and the uninjured Lappland was able to defeat the giant wolf.

In fact, it should be so.

Chi Yu looked at the falling cold raindrops and thought a lot.

Anyway, the crisis is resolved.

Outside the Dragon Gate.

"There is no news from them at all... They failed, let's go!"

"What a shame... I thought I'd have a chance."

"Longmen won't give us any more chances. There's no point in wasting time."

"Notify them and let's go!"

They do expect a war, but if the plan fails, they will be quite decisive in protecting themselves.

Syracuse, territory of the Tarn family.

"Genocide and liquidation" was launched again, and the target was the Tarn family.

When giant wolves' mouths appeared in all directions, the Tarn family had no intention of putting on a show. All their expected escape routes were cut off. Originally, they had a buffer period of several days before they could officially migrate and escape, but now, there was nothing more to say.

The once glorious and powerful Texas family was completely destroyed overnight, and the Tarn family did not last until midnight.

"Mission completed, ma'am."

"Any questions other than the situation?"

“…Indeed.”

"Go ahead."

"We found two orphans of the Tarn family patriarch in the study. Both are still in infancy."

"..."

"Madam? Do you want to deal with it?"

"... Let Agnier know and ask him to pay attention to this... The old man is pretty free anyway..."

"And... that old gentleman came out and walked around when we took action, but he did not interfere with us."

"...Does he still keep the old house in Texas?"

"Yes."

"…Go and say hello to him and ask him to take care of the Tarn family's estate. Well, that estate has now been merged with the old Texas residence."

The old residence of Texas does not refer to the estate of the Texas family. The remains of the Texas family are in Colombia, and were destroyed along with the Texas family when they were "genocide and liquidation" in Colombia. The old residence here refers to a villa where Salvador Rey Texas and his family lived before the establishment of the Texas family.

Before the Texas family's rise, this villa witnessed a period of relative peace.

As for the "old gentleman" mentioned by Siciliffe, he was an elderly Pero who was responsible for taking care of the villa for the person who bought it.

As for why I mentioned him, there are two reasons. One is the special nature of the buyer, and the other is that he himself is very strong.

"Okay, I understand." Giant Wolf Mouth stood with his hands hanging down.

"…Send the body of the Tarn family leader and the apology to Yan Country, and give the agreed explanation."

Lady Sicily breathed a sigh of relief. The internal problems of Syracuse had come to an end and they could enjoy peace for a while.

Gantry.

"Why is he here?!" The madness on the face of the young man Fidelia on the rooftop was gone, and his messy hair and eyes finally showed a bit of the teenager's helplessness.

"I thought you had everything under control." Sora smiled slightly, "The scepter and the director of the institute are not completely in control either."

The young man said nothing. He glanced coldly at Longmen, then looked back at Kong and sighed:

"I wanted to collect some more information... but it seems that I can't do it. Forget it. I'll just take the loss. Stewardess, see you later."

"I hope you can seriously consider my proposal next time we meet."

The young man Fidelia flipped his wrist, grasped a precision instrument in his hand, and crushed it. When the light dissipated, his figure also disappeared.

"...The thoughts of the Scepter and the others are really hard to understand..." Kong breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the Silver-faced Ring members around him, nodded and signaled that they could leave, "Thank you for your hard work."

"How can it be so hard?" Several people shook their heads, turned around and left without any pretense.

"Ling Dengxian...you are really messing around!" Kong was completely unprepared for the sword light, and rushed to the hospital to see what happened.
