Chapter 173 - Chapter 172: Children of Ursus

Kanna and Raidian returned to the hotel. Raidian patted her chest. On the way back, she noticed many Reunion Movement figures appearing throughout the city. Luckily, Kanna's magic was powerful enough to guide her to avoid their advance, so the two of them weren't discovered.

"Kal'tsit sent a message: Amiya and her group will arrive outside Chernobog on the evening of the 22nd, which is the day after tomorrow. They will sneak in under the cover of night. I'll be responsible for ensuring communication, and you'll be responsible for guiding the route. It seems Reunion Movement has almost completely occupied Chernobog; we haven't seen much resistance. Coupled with the areas evacuated in advance, it's clear that Chernobog's upper echelons, including the military, participated in this operation. Although we don't know their exact purpose, it's definitely not just this small Reunion Movement."

As Rhodes Island's information and intelligence expert, Raidian, in her room, pondered over the map of Chernobog, wondering what Ursus was planning.

Kanna waved a map at Raidian, "If there's nothing else tomorrow, I'd like to go out!"

"What do you want to do? Before we left, Kal'tsit specifically told me to keep an eye on you..." Raidian asked, hearing Kanna's words.

"Don't worry, you know my skills. It's not easy to come to a big city, I want to go sightseeing! Speaking of which, this Ursus city is so different from Iberia." Kanna certainly wouldn't say that she was planning to visit a few middle schools to see if she could run into those student Operators who came to Rhodes Island.

Of course, if she was lucky enough to encounter Mephisto, she wouldn't mind sending him to the Pure Land early. Although his fate was tragic, his actions were not forgivable.

Raidian considered for a moment. Through living with Kanna these past few days, she knew that the other party was a very obedient child, and for the past two days, she hadn't gone anywhere with her. For a child, she had been cooped up quite severely.

"Alright, I'll be adjusting signal frequencies tomorrow and won't be going out. You can go play by yourself! Just take the communicator so I can check the signal. But we have to agree, if I ask you to come back, you must come back, okay?"

Hearing that Raidian was willing to let her go out and play, Kanna's eyes lit up. She stopped bothering the other party and instead sat down obediently to read the "Ursus Travel Guide" provided by the hotel.

Early the next morning, Kanna looked at Raidian, who was still adjusting data, and was about to go out to play. Thinking of something, she first condensed an Electro Seed for the other party.

"You know how to use this, right?"

Raidian nodded, took the Electro Seed from Kanna's hand, and smiled, "Last time, I was fortunate enough to witness Scout's disheveled state on the deck."

"Haha! Then be careful. I'll be back after I wander around outside." Kanna opened the door and walked out.

Raidian placed the Electro Seed in an easily accessible position by her hand and then continued to adjust the equipment.

After leaving, since she was alone, Kanna didn't plan to take the main roads. After taking out the map, she flipped through it to locate Chernobog Middle School, then Kanna hopped onto the rooftop, directly jumping over everyone's heads towards her intended target.

In just over ten minutes, Kanna arrived at a lighthouse. Not far from the lighthouse was Kanna's target this time, Chernobog Peterheim Middle School.

She picked up the map in her hand and compared it. Not far from Peterheim Middle School was Chernobog Fourth Middle School.

According to her memory, although these two middle schools were not far apart, one was an aristocratic academy while the other was a commoner's middle school.

Kanna could clearly see flames rising from the nearby Fourth Middle School.

Kanna jumped towards that direction. When she arrived at the building next to the fire, she saw another building burning, and students were arguing upstairs, while downstairs was also in chaos.

Suddenly, a girl rushed towards another girl not far away, but she didn't expect that just as she was about to get close to the other party, a figure bumped into her from the side. Already not far from the edge, she stumbled and fell outside, but luckily, she grabbed the edge of the rooftop with both hands, barely avoiding falling.

At this moment, the girl above walked over with a struggling expression, but just as she made up her mind to act, a voice came from the side.

"Facing the impending Calamity and despair, is infighting the choice you Ursus people make?"

Hearing the unfamiliar voice, all the students, including those preparing to leave the rooftop, stopped.

Looking around, a little girl stood beside Anna. She squatted down and extended her small hand to Vika, who was about to fall.

At this moment, interrupted by Kanna, Anna, whose momentum had dissipated, no longer had her previous courage. She sadly retreated a few steps, watching Kanna pull Vika up.

Kanna looked at the leader of the group, who would later be Rhodes Island's foul-mouthed "General Winter," Zima Sonia.

"I won't make any judgments about your actions, because I understand that you too just wish to survive.

Here, I can tell you some news. First, Chernobog has completely fallen. The authority here has been seized by an organization called Reunion Movement. Staying in school, you won't get any rescue.

Then, no later than the day after tomorrow, and very possibly tomorrow, Chernobog will be hit by a terrifying Calamity. There will be almost no chance of survival in the city.

Third, I will clear out all Reunion Movement members in this vicinity. At least until tonight, this district will temporarily be free of Reunion Movement's presence.

Whether noble or commoner, everyone actually wants to survive. So why not gather all available strength and try to break out?"

After speaking, Kanna walked to the edge of the rooftop, "You don't have to believe what I'm saying, but I think this should be a pretty good choice. If you have nowhere to go, head south. At least for now, the closest city to Chernobog is Lungmen to the south."

With that, she jumped out in front of everyone.

Sonia quickly walked to the edge of the rooftop, watching Kanna disappear into the distant rooftops with a few leaps, and looked seriously at her companions.

"Call everyone, we need to prepare to break out."

"Why? That person never revealed her identity from the start. Why should we listen to her? What if she's deceiving everyone...?" Even after being rescued by Kanna, when it came to subsequent actions, Vika, who still held hope for the nobles, retorted.

"Because, apart from our lives, there's nothing she can gain by deceiving us..." As a leader, Sonia calmly assessed.
