“Amiya, you have to decide now. Should we force our way through or go around?” In the end, Dobermann handed the decision to Amiya.
“Doc…never mind.” Amiya wanted Doctor’s opinion, but she saw Doctor hanging around Chen Heng, constantly eyeing him, and not paying attention to the discussion. However, Chen Heng looked at Doctor with disdain on his face.
“We break through them. We do not have much ti left.” Amiya glanced at the sky. Although she did not believe in the Catastrophe ssengers, the signs of an imminent catastrophe were there for anyone to see.
[TL Note: Catastrophe ssengers study and analyze catastrophes to forecast them and mitigate damage. Here is more information about the Catastrophe ssengers: /wiki/Catastrophe_ssenger.]
“The Reunion Movent is ruthless not just to others but also to themselves. They want to use the catastrophe to destroy the city.” Nearl finally figured out that the Reunion Movent knew about today’s catastrophe.
“I just don’t know why Chernobog didn’t make preparations for sothing as important as a catastrophe. Even if they have no Catastrophe ssengers, doesn’t Ursus have one? Now, Reunion is in full control of Chernobog. Are Chernobog’s leaders good-for-nothings?”
“Alright, the most important problem now is this wave of enemies before us. Everyone, get ready. There are not many enemies in this wave, so we will attack together and end this battle as soon as possible.”
Just as the group was about to charge forward and deal with the enemies, a fog appeared. Many Reunion mbers suddenly erged from the surrounding rubble.
There was a woman spewing fog from her mouth—Crownslayer.
Two crossbow bolts shot out of nowhere, aid at the dics, but the Defenders blocked them.
“Everyone, be careful! This is a trap! Defenders, remain in defensive stances and prepare to advance. Ace, Nearl, get ready!” Regarding reacting in combat situations, Dobermann was the fastest.
Crownslayer’s figure appeared indistinct in the fog.
“Rhodes Island, I finally caught up. This ti, I will crush you to dust. Your Sniper is useless in this fog, right?!”
Chen Heng suspected Crownslayer’s strong enmity towards Rhodes Island was because of Kal’tsit.
Just as Crownslayer was about to make a move, a voice stopped her.
“Wait! Wait! Crownslayer, this is already my area of jurisdiction. You should hand them to , right?”
This voice ca from a certain mischievous child whose real na was unknown—phisto.
“phisto, you cannot deal with them alone. They have a very powerful Sniper with them.”
“Sniper? No Sniper can match Faust. Are you referring to the person holding the two-ter-long firearm? Then all the more reason to leave him to .”
“You should leave them to .”
“They are my prey.”
With Crownslayer and phisto arguing over who would deal with Chen Heng’s group, Chen Heng felt they were looking down on him. Rather, the enemy saw him as soone they could squish at any mont.
No matter which it was, Chen Heng hated this feeling. It made him recall the situation before he died in his future.
Although that was just a scene from the future, the Precognition’s first-person perspective had made him feel like he was there.
In the future, Chen Heng had been attacked while being delivered to the house of the person behind his ordeal. Back then, the attacker did not directly kill him, just cornered him.
From Chen Heng’s angle, he had seen two other people—a man and a woman. He rembered their appearances. They even had to audacity to ask him who he preferred to die to, and even argued over it…that scene was very similar to the current one.
Chen Heng hated this feeling a lot. For so reason, despite it being from his Precognition, he had felt like he was there.
Crownslayer and phisto’s exchange was reminiscent of the one between those two, making the initially relaxed Chen Heng turn extrely sullen. Furthermore, a vicious urge bubbled up in his heart out of nowhere.
This murderous air even startled Amiya, who was gifted with the ability to tap into the emotions of others.
Be it a rage arising from incapability or taking his anger out on soone else, Chen Heng just wanted to vent.
Chen Heng took a stance, aid, and shot, all within one second.
Bang!
“Huh? Where’s my hand…” phisto, who was planning to take down Rhodes Island’s group, suddenly felt his arm get shot. He quickly checked and saw his left arm cut off at the shoulder. However, it was not rely cut; his entire arm had vanished. Miraculously, he did not feel any pain.
Perhaps the pain would co later, but it would definitely co.
“Argh! Argh! Argh! It hurts! Ouch!”
“I say, are you underestimating ? This ti, I aid for your arm. The next shot will be your head.”
“Faust, kill him!”
Right after phisto spoke, a crossbow bolt shot at Chen Heng’s head with great force. Furthermore, this bolt shone with intense purple light.
Even a Defender would find this crossbow bolt hard to block. Unfortunately, they ran into Chen Heng.
Chen Heng gently raised his index finger and blocked the powerful crossbow bolt with his fingertip.
“How-how can this be?! How can soone use a finger to block Faust’s full-powered shot?”
Hey, Kal’tsit, can I kill this fellow? His tone made think of sothing very unpleasant. At worst, I’ll just directly eliminate Talulah for you or go to the Kazdel palace and kidnap that regent for you. What do you think?
[TL Note: The regent likely refers to Theresis, one of the main antagonists of the Main The, Arknights’s campaign mode. Here is more information about Theresis: /wiki/Theresis.]
[TL Note: Kazdel is the nation on Terra, the holand of the Sarkaz. Here is more information on Kazdel: /wiki/Kazdel.]
Kal’tsit: …Just kill him, then. phisto is, at best, a side character. His loss should not significantly impact the future.
17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: Ah! Little Brother Chen Heng is angry.
Queen of Ice and Snow: Right, right. He does look very angry. Based on my many years of experience…alright, I don’t know. However, it should be from sothing before his death, or the matter of his clan’s luck, or his parents…
Lord of the White Night: Looking at Chen Heng’s experience, I feel that it’s what he saw in his Precognition. That’s the only somber scene in that novel.
Umaru-chan: Isn’t that in the future? It hasn’t happened yet.
Solomon: Did you forget about Chen Heng’s Precognition? Furthermore, it is a Precognition that gives him a first-person’s perspective, so…
“phisto, right? This ti, I’m aiming for your head. Do your best to dodge, alright? I won’t hold back this ti.”
This ti, Chen Heng took a half-kneeling stance on a collapsed wall. He decided to try the Electromagnetic Sniper Rifle’s maximum output. He wanted to see what kind of damage it could cause.
