Hello, Arknights

Chapter 175 Frost Star

Fortunately, Alina survived.

But unfortunately, the conditions of the integrated movement could not save her arm, because there was no surgeon of this level. If Ling Dengxian used the healing Originium technique to forcibly reconnect her arm, it would also cause necrosis... He had never studied human medicine, but Bai Yan would follow his instinct to repair and heal his own injuries.

For other people, he can only really treat simple injuries, and if the injury is serious but the wound is simple, he can do it.

But Alina's current situation does not fall into this category.

The level of doctors in the entire infected team was not high, at least no one could save her arm under such harsh conditions.

But at least I survived.

Outside the tent, Ling Dengxian was sitting by the campfire rubbing his calves, feeling relieved which was out of place. After the cold frosty road and the biting wind that killed the evil, he felt the human habitation again, instead of staring at Texas in silence as usual. Now he could relax a little, he really couldn't be nervous anymore.

The blue-black Rupert came over with a bundle of firewood, looked at the environment outside the campfire, hesitated for a moment, and while he was stunned, she sat on his right.

"...Do you think I'm difficult to get along with?"

Ling Dengxian once again doubted whether his thoughts were too easy to guess.

"Really?" Ling Dengxian didn't dare to look at Texas' expression. He scratched his head and fixed his eyes on the crackling flames in disappointment.

"…Sorry, I'm just used to walking alone in the wilderness." Ling Dengxian made an excuse. His silence was entirely due to his helplessness in the face of Texas's struggle.

He didn't understand because he had guessed about the curse, but with Texas, he couldn't help but wonder if he was wrong.

Texas' negative feelings towards him appeared very early, and he doesn't seem like the type of person who would fall in love with someone because of a key rescue.

But he was not blind, he saw all the pain Texas was going through, he didn't understand why Texas insisted on following him, Lin Yuxia chose to retreat, but she chose to leave Longmen that could give her shelter, and followed him across the wilderness in the face of unknown pain, to the crisis-ridden Ursus Empire.

"...Do you regret it?" Ling Dengxian couldn't help but ask.

"You mean here?" Texas paused, then threw the firewood into the campfire with a little annoyance, and retracted his gaze from him, "I think... this is not a point that needs to be emphasized repeatedly."

"Why do you bring this up again?" Texas suppressed his annoyance and calmed down before noticing something strange.

"Uh...that...the Giant Wolf's Mouth came to me again just now...and seemed to want to tell me something about you." Ling Dengxian was silent for a moment, but still told the truth. He didn't want to make the already delicate relationship worse.

"Are you hurt?" Texas turned his head and asked. With the firelight behind him, Ling Dengxian couldn't see clearly the emotions in those amber eyes.

"...No, she doesn't seem to have any ill intentions."

"...what she said - never mind, it doesn't matter." Texas stood up. Ling Dengxian was still resting, and she planned to sort out the accommodation issue for tonight.

After the car broke down in the wilderness, Ling Dengxian gave her some experience in manual labor. The small wooden shell was quite practical, but still inconvenient. If she was attacked in the middle of the night and had to fight off the enemy, the wooden shell would definitely not be able to be saved.

More likely, it was because her lifestyle had changed. Texas had to admit that life in Longmen was indeed like a new life for her.

She wasn't sure if she could still adapt to the dark, rainy alleys that were always wet.

She seldom thought so much. Just after she took a few steps, Ling Dengxian's voice came out from the sound of burning firewood:

"I didn't let her finish."

"..."

"Also, let me do the negotiation. Even though you are not infected, you are still potentially dangerous." Ling Dengxian whispered, his expression different.

Texas gave a final nod and returned to sit quietly.

White pigeons may be hesitant at times, but they are never indecisive. At least that's how they performed in Longmen.

"…By the way, my code name now is Xuanlang, so don't let it get away." The sound of a pocky bag being torn open came from behind.

It's just that someone no longer eats for pleasure, but to suppress strange emotions.

"understood."

Just as the young man was about to leave, he heard the sentry shout:

"Big sister is back!"

He paused, he knew who that was. It should be said that every doctor who has watched the plot would know who that was.

White-haired, Carters, with the determination and kindness from the tundra, the touch of snow that disappeared in the ruins.

But for him, the white-haired Carters girl has another relationship.

"No... Shuangxing is already in her twenties, and Xiran is younger than me. I shouldn't be swayed by my emotions." Ling Dengxian let out a long sigh, "I might as well think about what I should say to Tallulah later so that she can stay here..."

But when that white figure really appeared under the light of the campfire, Ling Dengxian's heart still trembled violently.

Take a scoop of the clear moonlight and sprinkle it on the disaster to make white flowers appear.

People are just ordinary people, how can they control their emotions that are as violent as sand and water?

"Where's Tallulah?" A shallow scar appeared on the pretty face of the white-haired Carters, starting from the bridge of her nose, but it did not affect her beauty at all. Perhaps if she was born in another place, she would be a princess treated as the apple of the eye. But on this tundra, facing fate, she can only be a warrior and a patient.

"Sister, something unexpected happened to Tallulah today..." whispered the infected warrior in a white cloak beside her.

"She? How could she have an accident?" Carters looked puzzled.

"Uh, Big Bear is a bit slow in talking, he was wrong. It wasn't Tallulah herself who had the accident, it was an infected person, the teacher who was responsible for teaching the children and Tallulah's best friend, who was attacked on her way to exchange supplies during the day..."

"how is the situation?"

"Fortunately, two passers-by rescued her. Now she is out of danger."

"...I understand. If there is anything, please inform me or Dad. Don't disturb Tallulah for now. Give her some time." The Carters girl pondered for a moment and said softly.

"Okay, by the way, big sister, what's the situation with the Ursus army?" Another member of the Yeti team brought up another topic that everyone was concerned about.

"Dad led the guerrillas to defeat their advance team. It seems that they don't plan to continue chasing us this time... But we heard a piece of news... The Ursus Empire has launched a bounty on us, and bounty hunters can already be seen at the edge of the place."

"Those scumbags are really getting impatient... They are unwilling to mobilize a large-scale army to encircle and suppress us, but a small-scale army can't deal with us. Now they actually agree to let bounty hunters set foot on this land..."

"Okay, we'll talk about the rest later. Where are the two passers-by you mentioned? Did they leave?" Carters thought of this.

"No, they stayed in the camp... Damn, I forgot to arrange a place for them to sleep!" Big Bear slapped his head and shouted, "But we don't seem to have many decent tents..."

The guerrillas and Tallulah's team didn't have many tents, not even enough for one-tenth of the people to sleep. Most people slept in each other's arms around the campfire at night and took turns on night shifts.

Occasionally, when they arrived at some infected villages or land settlements that were not so resistant to the infected, they had the opportunity to live in old houses or abandoned warehouses and have a good sleep on a night without wind and snow.

"I'll go, you guys arrange dinner." The girl stopped two members of the Yeti team and said, "It would be nice to help Petrova. Do you still want to eat fried oilseed with milk?"

After arranging the two team members, she turned around and saw a stranger looking at this side quietly in the distance. She roughly knew who it was, nodded to him, and walked over.

"Hello, I'm Froststar, the captain of the guerrilla snow monster team... Are you okay?" Carters frowned, feeling that although the other party was looking at him, his eyes didn't seem to be on him.

"...I'm sorry." Ling Dengxian came back to his senses. Hearing Shuang Xing's tone and demeanor, he realized that she only looked like Ling Xiran... In fact, he had known this for a long time, but he still had some thoughts. "Miss Shuang Xing, you can call me Bai Ge. Where can my companion and I sleep tonight?"

"...I'm sorry that the conditions here are so poor, but after all, you saved our people. I will talk to my father later and make a tent for you." Frost Star thought for a moment and responded.

"Ah, in that case, don't bother. Just give us some wood, preferably planks."

"Wooden board?" Frost Star was very confused.

"Yelena."

A tall figure pierced through the shadows and appeared in the light of the campfire, the black color of his body was almost too thick to dissolve.

Froststar looked back at the tall Sarkaz. His gaze stayed on her for a moment and then looked at him.

Ling Dengxian met his eyes and his heart skipped a beat.

Patriot, Bozocasti.
