Traveling through Tomorrow's Ark: Starting with a Yama Sword

"ah?!!!"

After finishing breakfast and leaving the cafeteria, Shen Qi went straight back to the dormitory - he had nothing to do today, so he planned to play Ark's new mode, which seemed to be called Conflict Interpretation.

However, when he entered the main interface and saw that the official had released a new event preview, he simply clicked in to take a look.

"Yo, the new main storyline is finally here." Seeing the official announcement, Shen Qi became extremely happy. After all, it was the main storyline, and he could use a lot of stones to buy skins.

However, when he saw the new six-star operator introduced in the main line, the smile froze on his face instantly.

"Ah? This, this is not right."

Shen Qi was horrified. He stood up tremblingly and contacted Ines on the chat software:

"Come here quickly."

Ines didn't dare to ignore it, and ten minutes later, she came to Shen Qi's dormitory room.

"What happened, host?"

Shen Qi just pointed at his phone: "Look at what your operator is..."

Ines took Shen Qi's phone nonchalantly and looked at the game interface on the screen. After just one glance, Ines' expression immediately changed...

"I just saw this guy this morning. I didn't expect him to go to the island." Ines frowned and patted her forehead. "It's my mistake."

That’s right, the new six-star in Chapter 13 is none other than the mercenary Hedley!

Hedley was the one who rushed to Rhodes Island without even a moment's happiness for Inès' arrival on the island!

"Host, it seems we have to be more careful."

Ines returned the phone to Shen Qi: "I will stay in Rhodes Island for a long time now, and I have to help you from time to time every day. Hedley will definitely doubt my identity."

"Ah? But you were comrades before."

"That's true, but we are suspicious of each other and that will never change."

Shen Qi was speechless for a moment. He thought they were an old couple.

That's not right. In theory, the first thing Hedley should do when he arrives in Rhodes Island is to sweep up the area around U-chan......

However, Inès had already given her answer: "Next, I plan to go out with W to take on some jobs and leave Rhodes Island for the time being. We will communicate online from now on."

"But you are the doctor's bodyguard. Are you leaving now?"

"I have reported to the doctor. When he needs me, I will come back naturally."

Shen Qi suddenly had a picture in his mind. When the doctor was isolated and helpless, he shouted "Help me, Miss Ines!", and then Ines returned like lightning, stood in front of the doctor, and threw a bunch of potatoes to deal a fatal blow to the enemy.

It would be even better if the doctor turned into a little loli with white hair, red eyes and no shoes...

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, the look on your face shows that your feet stink because you've been on Arknights too much."

"Ahem, don't say it..."

------------

The next morning, the sun did not shine its light, and dark clouds and silence dominated everything.

At this time, Hedley could already see Rhodes Island.

According to the plot, he should have gone to the island later, but Ines' words made him take action now.

"Doctor, someone is approaching Rhodes Island!"

Amiya noticed the abnormality first and hurried to the side of the doctor who was leisurely drinking tea. The doctor immediately stood up and walked to the deck outside, looking down at the man who was approaching step by step.

"Hedley? Why is he here?"

Some deep memories seemed to be awakened at this moment, but the doctor was still confused. He only knew that he should go find Ines to negotiate with Hedley first.

"Inès, please come to the deck gangway immediately."

The doctor called Ines, but Ines' familiar voice not only appeared on the phone, but also on the gangway not far away.

"I've been here for a long time." Inès looked up at the doctor, with a hint of regret in her eyes. "I just met him yesterday. It seems like we have to come here again to catch up."

She looked towards the bottom of the gangway, and Hedley also saw her from below. After not seeing each other for a day, the identities of both of them might have undergone some subtle changes.

"Come up," said Inès, "it's time for you to seek support."
