Arknights, Suika's Messenger Journey

While Suixiang and the others continued on their way to Chernobog, Chen arrived at the town the next morning and successfully bought a transport truck at a high price.

After rushing back to Longmen, she immediately went to the Governor's Mansion to find Wei Yanwu.

After listening to Chen's words, Wei Yanwu pondered for a long time, and finally walked into a small house alone.

The next day, Ursus's spies received news that there were unusual movements on the border of Dayan. Several border troops near Ursus were approaching the border between the two countries in the name of military exercises.

Upon hearing this, the old nobles who were about to join forces with Mephistopheles to encircle Tallulah and her group quickly withdrew most of their troops and rushed to the border.

After all, although they did plan to fight a few battles with Dayan to completely drag Dayan into the war in order to implement their own plans, it was definitely not a situation in which Dayan would take the initiative and invade their territory.

So even though we don't know why a quiet Da Yan suddenly moves, it is necessary to return to defense.

As for Black Snake, who probably guessed the reason, he couldn't tell it out loud. After all, that would mean he was admitting to others that his decades-long plan had completely failed.

When Tallulah and her three companions arrived at their destination not far from the city of Chernobog, they found themselves in ambush with only a military force of more than 500 people equipped with four cannons, in addition to Mephisto and his rebuilt herd, Garson and his Sarkaz mercenaries.

This was only one-fifth of the ambush that Mephistopheles had originally discussed with the military, and the four guns could not provide the planned fire coverage.

However, Mephistopheles also received news that the number of people in Tallulah's group had been reduced again.

Although he didn't know what kind of conspiracy this was by Tallulah and the others, it was undoubtedly a good thing for him.

After learning that the enemy was about to arrive, he walked the herd directly in an area with a fan shape of five kilometers centered on the village and heading towards Tallulah, as if he was going to engage in a positional battle with Tallulah.

Talulah, Suika, and Hoshiguma stood on the hill, looking at the village in the distance.

"It seems that Mephistopheles is indeed here, but where does he get the confidence to fight us?"

Tallulah said as she looked further away.

"Didn't Scout go to the back to investigate? I also think there must be someone behind them, otherwise, he wouldn't have the courage to stay here?

Or does he think he can still use that mysterious method to escape last time?"

Suixiang rubbed her wrist. Today was definitely going to be a big battle, so she seemed very excited.

"Zizizizi" At this moment, the communicator in Tallulah's hand rang.

"This is Tallulah!" Tallulah picked up the communicator and said this before falling silent.

"It's me, the scout. We guessed correctly. I found traces of the Ursus army in the northern woods. I can vaguely see the presence of heavy firepower, but the enemy is behind the woods, so the exact number is unknown.

Judging from the visual evidence, the number of people is no less than that of a battalion."

A few seconds later, Scout's deep voice came through the communicator.

After hearing the news, the three of them were not surprised, but relieved.

That's right, if they didn't have a backer, with Mephistopheles and Old Loach's personalities, how could they possibly fight with our side openly here?

So when they learned that there was an Ursus army hiding behind, they were not surprised but felt that this was Mephistopheles' character.

"I see. Will you come back and reunite with us next?"

"No, I see something unusual in the direction of Chernobyl to the east of the village. I'm going to take a look," Scout replied.

"Isn't it too dangerous?" Tallulah said with some concern.

Although he was not a member of the Reunion Movement, his help to the Reunion Movement and her side over the past six months was no less than that of any other Reunion Movement cadre. In Tallulah's heart, she had long regarded him as a companion.

“Don’t worry, I’ll retreat if something goes wrong.

Besides, isn't there Miss Suika's Shanghai doll here to accompany us?

It will protect me, right?

The scout on the other side spoke in a very relaxed tone.

When he acted alone before, Suixiang gave him the Shanghai doll that followed her and asked Shanghai to protect his safety.

When Alice came before, she strengthened this Shanghai doll several times because it was the closest one.

Not only was there no trace of damage on his body, but his strength and intelligence were several times stronger than before.

At least if Suika is not careful, it will be difficult to catch the agile one.

"Then you have to be careful. Given Black Snake's character, he won't have only one backup plan..." After Talulah finished speaking, Scout replied that he understood and headed east.

not long ago

"Huh? Let the boss fight in the front, and we'll watch the show from the back!

Garson, you filthy Sarkaz, are you planning to eat up the commission all by yourself?!"

A sharp and somewhat crazy female voice spoke rudely to the leader of the mercenary group not far away.

"presumptuous!

W, I can forgive your disrespect for Hedley's sake, but now I am the leader, I am the boss here, and you have to listen to me in everything.

You said we were watching a show. Yes, we are watching a show now. Not only that, I will also make it more comfortable for you to watch.

Hedley, take your men to the southern mountains and ambush them. Do not go out into battle without my order!"

Garson looked at W who was being held by Hedley not far away and raised his eyebrows provocatively.

Seeing the other party's actions, W cursed even louder.

Fortunately, just when Garson was about to lose his temper, Hedley picked up W and walked south with his men.

"Damn Hedreza Kazi, put me down right now, or I'll definitely stuff a bomb into your ass..."

Facing W's scolding and threats, Hedley had a blank expression on his face, as if she wasn't scolding him at all. He just kept his head down and walked until he reached his destination.

"Enough of the scolding, now go set up the defense line!"

After dropping W, Hedley said calmly.

"Inès, how can you tolerate this Sarkaz's foul language? With that deadpan face of his, I should have used a bomb to loosen his skin a long time ago..."

While cursing, W led his men to set up a minefield not far away.

"Are you really not angry at all?" Inès stood beside Hedley and looked at W with a strange smile on her face.

After all, whenever W opens her mouth, I've never heard her say anything nice.

"Why get angry with an illiterate person?" Hedley found a place to sit down, took out some dry food and started to eat it.

"I'm not illiterate!" W, who was not far away, immediately cursed back when he heard what Hedley said.

Chapter 368: Spicy Heavenly Sai!

"But after all these years, you can't even write my name and Inès's."

Hedley's words seemed to have hit someone's foot. She jumped up and retorted

"Nonsense, I'm not a fool, how could I not be able to write your names."

"But as far as I know, someone once tried to forge my signature to get supplies from the logistics department, but the name was written wrong and the logistics officer didn't give it to them."

After Hedley said this expressionlessly, he saw a certain American cockroach's face suddenly turn red. Then, she held the bomb with a dangerous look on her face and kept looking at Hedley's lower body, which made Hedley feel a chill in his lower body.

"Alright, alright, stop messing around. W, go set up the minefield. According to the information we received, the enemy is approaching."

Inès came in front of W, blocking her line of sight from Hedley. After calming down the American cockroach with gentle words, she glanced at Hedley, who was still munching on his dry food with an expressionless face, while the cockroach muttered, "I'm only doing this to give Inès face. Otherwise, I would have blown you to death right now."

Turning his gaze back to Suika.

After a brief discussion, the three of them decided that since the other party knew of their arrival, there was no need to hide anything.

Instead of wasting time battling Mephistopheles and his herd, it is better to charge headfirst and attack the enemy directly.

Of course, this suggestion was made by Suika, and Tallulah chose to agree.

Although Xingxiong felt that it was too rash, with two votes against one, she could only helplessly raise the shield in her hand (not Hannya's but the one she got after coming here) and follow Tallulah.

As for Suixiang, she didn't need her protection at all, and she couldn't catch up with the other person who was flying in the air and rushing out while shouting "Ura".

After seeing Suika flying out, Talulah and Hoshiguma looked at each other helplessly, then jumped out as well.

However, their legs were no match for Suika's flying speed, and the two soon fell behind.

Naturally, Suika's high-profile advance was soon discovered by Mephisto.

After seeing Suixiang, he recalled the experience of being almost killed by the mysterious man beside her. He subconsciously stepped back a little. After discovering that the other party was flying towards him alone, his anger turned around and rushed to his head again.

No matter how weak he is, he is still the immortal black snake of Ursus. Moreover, he has the herd in front of him, Sarkaz mercenaries behind him, and the Ursus army protecting him on the side. If he is scared, he will not be able to face anyone.

With his command, the herd took action.

Among them, those with long-range spellcasting abilities and those using bows and crossbows raised their weapons.

The drone carrying the bomb also took off like a locust and rushed towards Suixiang.

Seeing this, Suixiang did not use the Oeyama Lan, but waved her hand and unleashed the [Ice Talisman·Ice Explosion] spell. Ice cones appeared on the left and right and then shot out in all directions.

The ice cone hit the drone and detonated the bomb, creating a burst of brilliant sparks in the air.

Suixiang opened up the barrage all the way and rushed directly to the top of the crowd.

Seeing Suika suspended in mid-air not far away, Mephisto (the black snake) instinctively felt a little uneasy.

I saw the other party open his hands and show a strange smile

"A bag of rice, how many floors..."

Suixiang said that she had wanted to do this for a long time, but she had never had the chance before. Black Snake was so generous to give her the opportunity to show off in public, and it would be unforgivable for her not to take advantage of it.

For this purpose, she deliberately used her ability to spread her voice so that people around her who were paying attention could hear her voice clearly.

“Spicy Tiansai!”

After finishing the lines with satisfaction, he looked at the drone that was about to rush to him, and activated the ability of density and sparseness. The drone that was about to rush to his face in the last second was directly repelled by a powerful repulsive force in the next second.

"What the hell is that guy doing...?!"

W in the distance was still complaining one second, and the next second he couldn't help but started to use beautiful Sarkaz swear words again.

She recognized Suika when she appeared.

Just as she was thinking about how Rhodes Island was related to Ursus, the other party flew towards her employer with sparks and lightning.

Of course, she also heard Suika's pretentious lines.

However, as an illiterate person, she naturally couldn't understand Suixiang's Eastern dialect.

But W instinctively felt a sense of threat from her arrogant behavior.

Before W could figure out what Suika was trying to do, Suika, after finishing her lines, let her know why the other party was so confident.

Looking at the same depression as in Konoha below, Suika looked towards the distance with satisfaction.

The power of this spicy Tiansai was quite good, forming a circular circle of about three kilometers in the village below.

The village that existed a minute ago naturally disappeared in an instant with this move.

At this moment, Suika was looking at the edge of the circle. Mephistopheles, or the immortal black snake, was standing there with a look of horror on his face, and there were only a few members of the herd beside him.

Just when Suika was showing off, the feeling of facing death in the dark night last time came to his mind again, so before Suika said her last words, he grabbed the herd member who could teleport without hesitation and disappeared on the spot with the strongest supplies in his hand.

His feeling was correct. Just after he teleported, Suixiang's skill not only directly destroyed the village that he thought was impregnable, but also cut off the connection between him and the herd in front.

Without Mephisto's control, the herds on the front line instinctively tried to stop Tallulah and Star Bear's charge.

But how could he possibly stop these two people just by relying on instinct?

Although they were also surprised by Suika's almost overwhelming attack, the two did not slow down their movements. Instead, they sped up their movements by two points, just to break through the herd's obstruction and reunite with Suika more quickly.

After firing a Shinra Tensei, Suika looked up and saw Mephisto standing on the edge with sweat all over his face, and she smiled a rare smile.

"You're really hard to kill, old man!"

She waved her hand, and hundreds of ice cones appeared out of thin air and shot directly at Mephisto.

Mephistopheles snorted coldly, and a man next to him stood up with his hands open in front of him. A transparent barrier appeared out of thin air, blocking Mephistopheles.

The barrier made a crackling sound as the ice cone hit it.

Mephisto's face changed, and he pointed the long staff in his hand behind the man. The barrier became solid again, blocking Suika's tentative attack.

"Tsk, is this your chassis?"

Suixiang looked at the "person". His face was pale, and the Originium that had broken through the skin was visible to the naked eye on his outstretched hands and exposed face. If he had not been under the control of Mephisto's spell, he would have died from the excessive concentration of Originium in his current state.

Chapter 369: Their respective battles

Seeing that the other party remained silent, Suixiang waved her hands again, and twice as many ice cones as before appeared in the air.
