"Hoo!"
Taking a deep breath, Mo Zhi adjusted her emotions, forcing a smile that was somewhat presentable.
"This is the complete plot for the first chapter."
"The Dark Ages mainly tells the story of our roles as Doctors being rescued, while also briefly introducing the worldview and game mechanics."
"Of course, as always, it's a tearjerker."
Mo Zhi emphasized the word "tearjerker," her teeth gritting as if about to shatter.
"This is so like the Old Master!"
"It's successfully motivated me to eliminate the Reunion Movement!"
After a simple enhancement of her operators' stats, Mo Zhi plunged back into the main story of the second chapter - Twin Birth.
"Tsk, such a weird name."
5:57 a.m.
"Apologies, Officer Chen, this area just had some Reunion—"
Amiya was about to explain when Chen ruthlessly interrupted, stating coldly, "Enough, I know, but none of that is important."
Her gaze locked onto Mo Zhi, "...Who is this person?"
"Rhodes Island's consultant. Doctor Kal'tsit should have informed everyone at Lungmen."
"Hmph..." Chen turned her head away, haughtily saying, "Alright, everyone is here. Now, you will follow me to meet—"
"Officer Chen! Something's wrong! Something's wrong—Infected—There again—" A Guard reported in a panic.
"What's all the fuss about!"
Chen reprimanded them and immediately began deploying. "Squad One, on guard! Snipers, take positions!"
After repelling the enemy,
Everyone followed Chen to the executive residence of Lungmen's governor, Wei Yenwu.
Skyscrapers stood tall, their brilliance dazzling and captivating.
"Wow!"
Amiya's eyes sparkled. "Such tall buildings!"
"......" Chen was utterly speechless.
Meanwhile, Mo Zhi, looking at the little rabbit with light in her eyes, emanated a maternal glow.
It was like looking at her own silly daughter.
"...Um..." Realizing her lapse, Amiya quickly apologized. "S-sorry..."
"Rhodes Island's combat capabilities are not bad," Chen subtly changed the subject. "However... after the Chernobog incident, everyone has been flocking to Lungmen like mad."
"Infected should know what fate awaits them in Lungmen."
As they spoke, an unfamiliar voice sounded.
??? : "Let me remind you one last time, Lungmen will be the next Chernobog."
"It's Doctor Kal'tsit...!" The little rabbit exclaimed excitedly.
Doctor Kal'tsit, a high-ranking executive of Rhodes Island, had arrived earlier.
She was in discussion with Wei Yenwu regarding cooperation.
Kal'tsit believed that after the Chernobog incident, with a large influx of Infected into Lungmen, the Reunion Movement would launch another offensive.
With Lungmen's current defensive capabilities, they might struggle.
She suggested that only Infected could deal with Infected.
Kal'tsit had fluffy, shoulder-length white hair, but Mo Zhi couldn't tell which animal Doctor Kal'tsit's prototype was based on.
Just as Chen could tell she was a dragon, Wei Yenwu a deer, and Amiya a rabbit, their horns or beast ears had clear features.
Only for Kal'tsit, she couldn't pinpoint a reference in her mind.
Kal'tsit was very thin, and significant Originium crystals were visible on her right shoulder. Clearly, Kal'tsit was also an Infected, and not mildly so.
Although Kal'tsit analyzed the problem very clearly, Wei Yenwu was evidently very confident in his city.
Besides pride, another important reason was that he felt Rhodes Island's asking price was a bit too high.
"It's not like there's no room for negotiation."
Wei Yenwu, holding his pipe, said leisurely, "To cover Lungmen's expenses, my conditions are simple, only two."
"First, Rhodes Island must assist the Guard Department in eliminating the threat of the Reunion Movement to Lungmen, not merely defend against them."
"Second... we'll discuss that after you've completed your primary task."
The old man was cunning, confident that Rhodes Island had no choice, and stated calmly, "If you cannot accept, then I believe all the conditions we've discussed previously, and everything you desire, will be..."
Mo Zhi felt angry just listening!
This old man was treating Rhodes Island as a mere pawn. If this pawn served him well, he'd continue using it, but if the pawn went rogue... he could simply dust himself off and leave.
But Mo Zhi also knew that Rhodes Island had no choice.
To save the Infected, a large city like Lungmen was the best option.
"Sigh..."
"One must bow to circumstances..."
Sighing, Mo Zhi continued to direct the combat, her resolve to become stronger burning in her heart.
