"Then how did you confirm that the people who attacked you and those Mephisto met belong to the same organization? You know, you Sarkaz mercenaries have many mortal enemies..." Frostnova's voice came through the communicator.
"Oh oh oh oh! I didn't know at first, but didn't Talulah-sama just mention the situation Mephisto and his group encountered? Earlier, when we were chasing that Rhodes Island squad, they would throw something that could turn into a lightning-like little person. This little person's combat power is extremely strong, and its movements are agile. Even when we were prepared, we lost many people, otherwise, we wouldn't have given them a chance to escape.
It just so happens that Mephisto and his group also encountered it. This kind of thing has never been seen anywhere else, so it's likely a unique weapon.
So, anyone with a brain would understand how high the probability is that these two sides are from the same group."
W spoke after hearing Frostnova's words. She was also very curious when Rhodes Island came up with such a terrifying thing. It looked like both a spell and an object, and although it buzzed, since it could still explode, how could she, a demolition maniac, not be interested?
"This information is very valuable. If you've resolved things on your end, W, quickly gather your team and come to the plaza. Whether the opponents are Sankta or Sankta, since they've come to Chernobog and killed so many of our cadres, it's impossible to let them leave easily."
After listening, Talulah did not change her decision because of the opponent's identity. Instead, she urged the others to hurry, making sure to block them before they left Chernobog.
The Rhodes Island group arrived at the evacuation point. Before they could even enter, upon seeing the hope of survival, the civilians unhesitatingly abandoned the Rhodes Island group who had been protecting them, rushing into the evacuation zone first and completely blocking the evacuation point.
Seeing the actions of these "Ursus Refugees," the Rhodes Island group was stunned for a moment but still chose not to squeeze in with them. Instead, they remained on alert, preparing to leave in batches once the passage was no longer congested.
Because of the Refugees' eagerness, the evacuation passage, which should have been quick, was delayed for several minutes. Amiya looked anxiously at Doctor, who was already somewhat shaky. It was clear that after emerging from the sarcophagus and encountering such a stimulating situation, then walking with the team to this point, he was already exhausted.
Kanna, sitting nearby, glanced at the passage that these difficult civilians had finally managed to open.
"Amiya, take Doctor and go down first. ACE Squad and I will cover the rear."
Amiya nodded, helped Doctor, and led her squad downwards. Kanna patted ACE on the shoulder.
"No time to rest, we have guests!"
Hearing Kanna's words, ACE and Nearl immediately organized their teams, wary of the paths to both sides.
Just then, several meteor-like fireballs descended from the sky, attacking the positions of the Rhodes Island Operators.
Kanna spread her hands, and lightning shot out from them, scattering the approaching fireballs into a rain of fire. (Monthly fee, group 6949, 36135)
Although the area of damage seemed to increase, under the arrangement of ACE and Nearl, the fire rain did not cause any significant impact on the two teams.
"You're the one who killed my three cadres?" Along with a cold female voice, a group of people saw a Draco female leading her team walking from the other end of the street.
With her arrival, intense flames ignited on both sides, and countless fire rains, as if alive, condensed around her, then rushed towards Rhodes Island's direction.
Nearl, holding a shield, was sent flying backward on impact. She looked at Talulah with a grim expression, and those next to her noticed that her shield showed signs of melting in just one second, and her hands were covered in burn marks.
"Although we are all Infected, we should help each other. But unfortunately, you made the wrong choice. Although Mephisto and his group died here in Chernobog, on this land, I promised them that their 'coffin' would be the entire 'Old World,' and we, Reunion Movement, will lead all Infected to a new ideal land where they will no longer be bullied or oppressed!"
Accompanied by flames, Talulah declared her manifesto while continuously manipulating the flames to attack Rhodes Island's direction.
Between the two, the passing flames began to melt the ground, her attack melted an entire street, turning the entire plaza into a sea of fire.
ACE and his subordinates had intended to hold on, but a sudden powerful force from behind threw him to the passage entrance. He turned around and saw Kanna standing in front of everyone, terrifying lightning constantly emanating from her. The entire street was left with only orange-red and silver-white colors eroding each other.
ACE originally wanted to follow, but Nearl grabbed his arm, "Let's go. In this situation, we can't do anything. If you want to help Kanna, then leave as soon as possible. Only when we have all evacuated will Kanna have a chance to retreat."
ACE also understood this principle, but having been saved by Kanna once before, he couldn't bring himself to let Kanna save him a second time.
Just then, a fierce gust of wind shot through the flames from the other side of the street. Kanna dodged, then stomped forcefully, kicking back the spear that had shot through the flames towards her position.
Seeing this, ACE knew that hesitating here would only put more pressure on Kanna. He could only follow Nearl dejectedly into the passage.
After they all evacuated, the passage entrance suddenly began to form huge ice blocks. Before Kanna could take two steps, several more grenades shot over.
It seemed Reunion Movement was preparing to keep Kanna in Chernobog.
"Tsk! Such a big show, huh? Brozkarst, Yelena, Alex, and you, Talulah—no, I should call you 'Undying Black Snake' Kashchey, right!"
Even under siege and with her retreat cut off, Kanna showed no worry, even calling out the names of those attacking.
"I didn't expect you to know all of our names, but Kashchey is my adoptive father, and I have already killed him in the castle. Here, there is only Talulah, no Kashchey..." Talulah was momentarily stunned when she heard Kanna's words, not expecting to be called out by name by the opponent.
Although she found it a bit strange that the opponent could accurately name Reunion Movement's cadres, Reunion Movement had existed for so long, so it was normal for information to leak. But her own "identity"—how did this child, who appeared to be less than ten years old, know about it..
