Arknights: Iron-Blooded Savior

At this time, the camera turned, and at the border of Area B around the core city of Chernoborg, the Sakaz mercenaries under W had become a pot of porridge:

"Where is W?" At times like these... Why isn't she here?

A Sakaz mercenary said, the sword in his hand was dull, his hand was trembling slightly, and he was surrounded by the remains of the living corpses of the source stone, many of them from his own hands.

"...[Sakaz foul mouth] Are you still counting on w?! How Garson died, we all know it, don't we?

Another Sakaz with three fierce scars on his face scolded, his tone evident in anger.

"You—

" The Sakaz wanted to say something, but was interrupted directly by the Sakaz in a tougher tone:

"

Don't talk nonsense, w, Tallula, the devil knows what shit they're thinking."

"We're all working for money, right? Don't be affected by these mutants, we are Sakatz, the demon guys who are 10,000 times dirtier among the mutants, they want their future, and they have nothing to do with us!

"Kill these damn living dead in front of you, and then follow the side that is alive, this is my policy!"

"Now, tell me, W can't be contacted, Tallulah abandoned us, who should we [Sakaz foul language] listen to before these two people, whoever gives us an order?!"

However, at this moment, among these voices full of anxiety and confusion, a stable and clear cold voice suddenly came:

"If you trust me, you can listen to me temporarily."

Yikes!

Suddenly, the eyes of all the Sakaz mercenaries looked in unison in the direction where the voice came from.

"You... I recognize you... You are the captain of the Phantom Crossbowmen, Faust.

A Sakaz mercenary stepped forward and stared at the Sakaz crossbowman whose half of his body was burned by Drack's flames, and said.

"Did you just get into a conflict with Tallula?"

Faust said to them:

"... Tallulah has betrayed us, he is no longer the leader of the integration movement, she is letting the integration movement personally disintegrate from her own hands into shattered ashes.

The Sakaz mercenary looked at Mephistopheles behind Faust, his eyes immediately became cold, and said,

"These living dead are Mephistopheles' handiwork?"

Faust immediately replied:

"No, you have seen Mephistopheles' source stone skills, but these are not herds at all, but the source stone living corpses that look like herds, and Mephistopheles' source stone skills are not so capable of pulling the dead soul of Usas, who has been dead for an unknown number of years, out of the ground and giving it a second life."

The Sakaz mercenary nodded and accepted the statement, and if you looked closely, you would see that it only looked like Mephistopheles' source stone technique.

Faust continued to say to them:

"My priority now is to save most of the integration movement, and my squad has all been sacrificed, and I need to replenish my strength to deal with what may happen next."

Another Sakaz hired for a moment and stepped forward and asked

, "Then what can you bring us,

Faust?"

"We don't ask too much, Sakaz has been destined to fall into the dirtiest, most rancid quagmire since the moment he became a mercenary, we eat a meal called betrayal, drink the poisonous juice called discrimination, soak in a morass called destruction, and expect the sun to rise the next day."

"What can you bring us? We don't dare to expect anything unrealistic, we want clean food and water, and shelter to live in, rather than lying on a snowy plain and freezing into a stiff corpse at some point.

Faust was silent for a moment and replied

, "I dare not say what I can bring you, Sakatz,

it is a taboo to make promises on the battlefield."

"But with me there will always be a better chance of survival, and clean food and water, and shelter, I will let you fight for it by the right means, and I will try my best to make you live like a Terra."

"That's all."

Faust pointed to the front and spoke again:

"I can feel the cold air in front of me, it is Frost Star who is back, and it should be engaged in a large-scale battle with her snow monsters, I will go to support them."

"If you want to follow your fellow Sakaz, please follow me."

After Faust finished speaking, he carried Mephistopheles a few longitudinal leaps on his back and rushed all the way forward.

And the Sakatz behind Faust looked at each other.

"So follow Faust?"

A Sakaz mercenary said to everyone in a tone that did not know whether it was doubt or affirmation.

Another Sakaz mercenary immediately picked up his words:

"-Sakhaz would rather mess with Sakaz, isn't this an iron law?"

"Besides, he is Faust, unlike Mephistopheles' [Sakaz foul language], he is still very good to his own warriors."

So, the surrounding Sakaz immediately regrouped and followed Faust.

————————————————

Frost Star was already a little physically exhausted at this time, and the source stone crystal clusters on his body had begun to spread active source stone dust towards the surroundings - this was already an extremely dangerous signal.

Beside her, the surging source stone living corpses were all frozen into ice sculptures, and the ice wall made of these ice sculptures had almost reached ten meters high, and the heavy snow around her was howling, and the cold current was overflowing.

However, at this moment, a communication request suddenly came from the source stone communication machine pinned to her shoulder.

It's Rankopel.

Frost Star quickly entered, and her eyes were almost blind.

"Frost Star, can you hear, is the signal clear?"

Rankopel's voice reached his ears, but there was a strange sense of muffling.

"The signal is clear, you are on the train? Rankopel? Frost

Star could clearly hear the unique moving sound of the train coming from the environment where Rankopel was at this time, and the sound of this movement was very dull, as if it was...

It's like coming from underground!

"Yes, Frost Star, I took the underground train in Rhode Island to evacuate temporarily, we just burst out a large number of source stone living corpses over there, there are too many, we can't finish fighting, we can only temporarily retreat!"

Inside the Source Stone communication machine pinned to his shoulder came Rankopel's somewhat unstable voice, and the reason for this unstable Frost Star could not be clearer - because of the weakness caused by the outbreak of his Source Stone skill after a big war.

"Rankopel, I just seized a Chernoberg signal transmission base station with the snow monsters... Ahem... Now the whole Chernoberg is full of strong interference zones.

"I just wanted to contact you, Rankopel, but the signal was distorted, and the snow monsters and I couldn't solve it after several debugs, so we could only seize a signal transmitting base station."

"How is your side? Rankopel, now the entire surface of Chernoberg is full of such living dead things, I thought at first it was the handwriting of the integration movement cadre Mephistopheles, but after closer inspection, I found that the essence is not the same, only the appearance is very similar. Frost

Star's senses had begun to blur, and she could only hear Rankopel's voice by pressing her ear to the source stone communicator on her shoulder as much as she could:

"There is no problem on my side, Frost Star, I am ready to evacuate to a safe place for temporary repairs, and I will come to you and the captain as soon as I repair it!"

"Ahem-

" Frost Star suddenly felt a sharp pain in her lungs, she coughed hard twice, two red and black blood clots stained the snow under her feet, and then replied to Rankopel:

"

Rankopel, I need your support here, I and the snow monsters are already in prison, we want to contact Big Daddy, but the signal interference on their side is too strong."

"We're under siege... [the harsh sound of electricity]—"

Beep—

the signal is interrupted again."

"Ahem... No, already... It's almost impossible to hold on..." Frost

Star coughed, the Source Stone Technique around her had begun to show signs of collapsing, and the surrounding glacier had become less stable, like a mirage that could disappear at any moment.

Her will is indeed firm, but Frost Star's body has limits, no matter how indestructible Frost Star's spirit is, her flesh as a container for carrying spirit will crumble first.

She is not a powerful race after all, but her strong strength makes everyone forget that she was originally just a catter, just an ordinary snowy rabbit.

"Big sister, go rest, our doctor has vacated it! Stop desperate, big sister!! An

icebreaker from the Snow Monster Squad yelled at Frost Star in the center of the battlefield while brandishing his long knife.

Hissing -

because of the disorder of the Frost Star Source Stone technique, those originally suppressed Source Stone living corpses suddenly screamed and rushed up again.

Frost Star really suffered too much, and she killed thousands of source stone living corpses alone, accounting for a quarter of the number of herds awakened by Tallulah in the entire Chernoberg City.

She is a true humanoid catastrophe.

But at this moment, the limit of the frost star was reached.

"Uh-"

Her whole person only felt that the sky was spinning for a while, and then she suddenly fell to one knee, although she had not fainted on the spot, but now she was extremely weak, and she could no longer use the slightest source stone technique.

The surging herds around did not have the suppression of the Frost Star Source Stone technique, and immediately roared like a tide and pounced, wanting to tear the crumbling Frost Star to pieces.

"Big sister!!"

A warlock of the snow monster squad was dumbfounded, but there was nothing he could do.

Shout!!

At this moment, an arrow with purple light flew in the distance like a rainbow through the sun, sweeping all the herds in front of the fallen frost star.

Yikes!!

Three purple arrows followed, appearing in the form of a pinnacle, connected almost like a purple beam, tearing all the herds around the frost star to pieces.

In the distance, a crossbowman was speeding in, and in the sky behind him, as he flew over a dozen air-dropped drones, all of which carried a huge ballista battery.

Faust, here it comes.
