Arknights, Suika's Messenger Journey

"What should we do?" Outside the house, Xingxiong Yongyi looked at Suixiang.

"Everyone, look around and see if there's a tunnel or an escape hatch. Let's go in and take a look."

Suika said uncertainly.

"Okay!" After saying that, Xingxiong Yongyi took the lead and kicked open the burnt door and walked in.

At this time, the fire in the house had not dissipated, and the high temperature kept most people away.

After seeing Tallulah walk in, Chen also wanted to go in, but Suixiang pulled her back.

"The temperature inside is so high, and your Originium skills have nothing to do with fire. Are you going there to die?

Xingxiong, keep an eye on her. If you really want to find something to do, go look for clues around and leave the inside to us!"

After being stopped by Suixiang, Chen realized that the current situation was indeed not suitable for him to go in. If he forced his way in, he would have to ask the three people to be careful and protect him.

"Then let's go and take a look around!"

Chen sighed and walked with Xingxiong to a place not far away.

Seeing that Chen was successfully persuaded by her, Suixiang breathed a sigh of relief and walked into the house.

Burnt-out corpses were scattered throughout the house.

These are a group of high-quality herds gathered here by the Black Snake to prepare to strike hard at the incoming enemies.

But Suixiang's moves are completely unreasonable. No matter how you arrange your troops, I will use my own ability called Flying Bricks to solve the problem.

He flipped the table over with one move, reducing his arrangements to ashes.

These herds of cattle that were hidden in various places and were about to make a big splash were burned to ashes by Cuixiang the moment the black snake escaped.

The feeling of finding people everywhere every time you open a door is so terrifying that even Tallulah couldn't help but frown.

But Hoshiguma Yugi looked calm and found a suitable place quickly as if he was just wandering around at home, and then called the two of them over.

"Miss Yongyi, wouldn't you feel uncomfortable in this environment?" After arriving there, Talulah didn't ask what she had discovered, but said casually.

"It's uncomfortable, why is it uncomfortable?

The environment here is much better than where I live. At least there are no crows and kittens making noise outside all day long, and I don't have to keep an eye on those brainless little brats who only know how to fight and their skills are not good at it.

As for the dead... you'll get used to them, and besides, no one would want to eat something burnt..."

Xingxiong Yugi looked calm.

"The ghost tribe eats people!" Talulah looked at Xingxiong Yugi in shock.

"The ghosts here are pure and innocent and don't eat humans. Yongyi was referring to the story of 'exchanging children for food'. When the ghosts first arrived in the East Country, they couldn't find any food, so the victims...

But the Ghost Clan is still considered a relatively powerful tribe in the East Country, not to mention the man-eating race... that of our Patriot Daddy..."

Tallulah breathed a sigh of relief at Suika's words.

Chapter 356: The Death of Faust

Indeed, when it comes to cannibalism, no one understands it better than Bozhuokaste, who inherited the blood of the Wendigo.

After all, Wendigo means cannibal.

As for the cannibalism that Suika mentioned... Talulah had actually seen it too.

After all, compared to the vast land of Dayan, Ursus is more barren, and the infected have fewer channels to obtain food.

When no food is available, cannibalism naturally becomes the only way for many helpless people to survive.

Tallulah really hated this, but she also understood the helplessness of those people.

Compared to Tallulah, the look that Hoshiguma Yugi gave Suika was much deeper.

She had felt something was strange since she arrived here.

First of all, this place doesn't seem to be within the Hakurei Great Barrier.

She wanted to ask several times, but Alice quietly stopped her.

Then there are these monsters. They hardly have any "demonic power" on them, but they can also use various spells.

Finally, there is the Suika in front of her. Although she looks similar, smells similar, and gives her a similar feeling, she thinks that she is not the Ibuki Suika she knows.

And the way she tried to smooth things over just now made her feel even more like that.

After all, ghosts don't lie. Of course, most of the reason for this is that ghosts at their level don't bother to lie.

And in her opinion, Suika's words were somewhat misleading.

So why did she lie?

At this time, Suixiang turned her head and looked at her, "I'll tell you after we get out."

Although the other party did not make any sound, he could still understand the meaning of what Suika wanted to say by seeing her mouth opening and closing in the dark room.

She nodded slightly, agreeing, and pointed to the only empty room and said

"I looked around everywhere, but this house is the only one that's empty. I think the Mephistopheles you were talking about is probably in this room."

"But this is not the main house?" Tallulah asked with some confusion.

At this time, Suixiang stood up and said, "It's normal that it's not the main house. After all, as the leader of the New Integration Movement, we subconsciously think that Mephistopheles is in the main house. In that case, he can set a trap there and hide nearby and step into it.

But as a hunter, he would never choose to stay in the main house. That choice is too risky."

Suika's words made Talulah suddenly realize that she had indeed subconsciously thought that Mephisto, as the leader, would wait for her in the main house, but judging from the opponent's methods, he did not have the ability to fight head-on.

As he was good at manipulating the herds, his best way of fighting was to hide aside and rely on the herds to surround and kill him.

Suika scanned the surroundings, knocked on various places, and confirmed that there was no escape route.

"It seems that the other party does have the means of remote transfer."

Xingxiong looked at Suika and asked, "Do you want to chase me?"

Tallulah thought for a moment and then said, "Can you determine the direction the other party is running away?"

Xingxiong Yugi shook her head. Tracking was not one of her talents.

"See if anyone else has found any clues. If we can confirm the direction the other party fled, it won't be too late to chase them."

Although she really wanted to grind Mephistopheles to dust, Tallulah knew very well that although she and her group did not completely kill him this time, they also inflicted heavy damage on him.

If there is a chance to kill Mephistopheles, it would be best. If not, then it is more important to attract the attention of the military and relieve the pressure at home.

After going out, the others also returned to the door.

"How about it?"

"There are only herds of people who have lost their self-awareness around us, and no living people." Chen's eyes were full of anger.

She had no idea what the herds that Tallulah and the others had talked about were, but after seeing them in person, the panic that rose from the bottom of her heart made her want to kill them with her own hands.

"Has anyone found any clues to the other party's escape?"

Tallulah looked at Scout, who shook his head.

A good cook cannot cook without rice. Now it is dark and the vision is obstructed. In addition, time is too short. Even for him who is the best at reconnaissance, it will be difficult to gain anything unless he is lucky enough to find a clue.

At this moment, Faust, who had taken a detour, came here with his team.

Seeing the house that had been destroyed beyond recognition, his eyes turned red and he aimed the crossbow in his hand at Tallulah and her group.

Seeing his action, the people behind him also raised their weapons.

The next second, he felt a severe blow to his abdomen, and with a scream, his whole body hunched over like a shrimp.

Then a strong wind blew, blowing the people behind him into pieces.

Faust reluctantly raised his head and saw Suika's emotionless, cold eyes.

"Da da da……"

Steady footsteps came from not far away.

He looked up through his blurry vision—it was Tallulah, the big sister who had saved him and Ino when they were on the verge of death and accepted them both.

Compared to the heartache in his eyes and the tenderness on his face, now there is only cold murderous intent in his eyes.

"Sasha... If I feel sorry that Ino has become what he is now, then you disappoint me, very disappointing.

He has character issues, we all know that.

But I always thought that as a good friend you could correct his mistakes.

But I was wrong. You never thought of reminding him when he made a mistake. You only covered up his sins endlessly and became his accomplice.

Look at what you have done, look at the people around you who died because of Ino, don’t you have any conscience at all!

Ino was once very pitiful, but does that give him the right to persecute other infected people?

Do you know how many infected people have suffered more severe oppression because of your actions?

I'm sorry, I can't find any reason to spare your life, but don't worry, even though Ino ran away, I will find him and kill him, ending his sins and evil deeds."

By the end of her words, Tallulah had already come in front of Sasha, and then she thrust the sword in her hand forward, piercing Sasha's heart.

Sasha was stunned when she heard what Tallulah said, then she smiled. "So Ino has successfully escaped. That's really great... Also, I'm sorry, Sister Tallulah, I disappointed you..."

Looking at Sasha lying on the ground and losing his life, Tallulah's agitated heart gradually calmed down.

"Notify Miss Alice and prepare to retreat according to the plan." Since Mephistopheles was not found, Talulah did not plan to stay here any longer.

After all, this place is too close to the city, and the flames just now would definitely be discovered.

If an army were to come and run into them and get entangled, it would be detrimental to their subsequent guerrilla plan.

Chapter 357: Puppet Army vs. Ursus Army

On the way to the town

Viscount Sterri, under the Grand Duke of Baikal, was leading his men towards the town.

Ten minutes ago, the flames that shot up into the sky almost ignited half of the sky, and the people in the city were terrified.

Others don't know the situation over there, but Viscount Sterly knows very well that that direction is the one that Grand Duke Baikal specifically instructed him to go to, and that is the gathering place of the infected organization that calls itself the New Integration Movement.

The Grand Duke also demanded that they be protected because the old aristocracy was planning to use this new integration movement to stir up trouble in the east and drag Dayan into the quagmire of war.

After all, the internal disputes would not make the young emperor agree to their request for reinforcements, and the reduction in the number of soldiers at their disposal would reduce their control over their subordinates.

You know, the little emperor has always been looking forward to catching them all in one fell swoop.

As long as they drag Da Yan into the war, they can forcibly increase troops according to wartime regulations.

Now that he has soldiers in his hands, it will be difficult for the little emperor to control them.

But they couldn't start the battle with Dayan by themselves, so they carefully selected this organization called the New Integration Movement.

As for how to provoke it and what to do after it is provoked, it is not something that a small viscount like him can know.

But one thing is very clear now, that is, he has to go and see what happened in the New Integration Movement, whether it will affect the subsequent plans, and whether there is any need for rescue.

The team he led was also the most elite one in the military. It took less than ten minutes from assembly to departure.

Of course, there are only off-road vehicles to lead the way and troop carriers carrying soldiers. As for high-speed warships, forget it.

Ten minutes is not enough time to submit the application and start.

However, he felt more at ease leading a team of several hundred people.

But when they were about to reach the town, they received news that a blonde girl was blocking the middle of the road and the convoy could not move forward. They asked him how to solve the problem.

"Bump into it!" Viscount Sterry knew very well that he could pretend to be a gentleman and show his aristocratic temperament on weekdays.

But now is wartime, and successfully completing the mission is the most important thing.

Not to mention that there was a stranger in front of him, even if his own parents were blocking the army's way, he would order them to charge forward without hesitation.

Alice stood in the middle of the road and calmly watched the car approaching, but instead of slowing down, it stepped on the accelerator and hit it. With a wave of her hand, a huge Goliath puppet appeared in front of her, holding two swords and slashing at the car in front.

When the vehicle in front saw the ten-meter-long sword coming down, it subconsciously wanted to avoid it.

But the flexibility of a car can never compare to that of a puppet.

Accompanied by several explosions, the two cars in front and the people on them were chopped into pieces by the puppets.

The car behind them stopped when they saw the situation was not good, and the soldiers jumped out of the troop carrier with weapons in hand.
