Volume 1 Mr. Engineer and Miss Mercenary Chapter 95 Fight Back
Once the final agreement was finalized, they arranged for the start of the program.
Smalla left Morfi's base in a low-key and hurried manner, and after he left, Tshiro stayed in bed to reduce his consumption, at least until Smalla returned to the church and teleported back to Morfi under the cover of the priest before completely falling into a coma.
Not long after Smofa left, Sirua and Ticharo were also sent out of the Molfi base, giving the illusion that Fili was going to find Kate Mette to help them, while the real Kate and Mette carefully watched Roses' movements to determine whether the other party had taken the bait.
Sanger began to set up Morfi's fortifications and patrols, and Ozra was closely guarded by him. The underground research institute in Gionne is also a defensive area, and although it has caused some inconvenience to the researchers, the recent research project has been suspended due to the preliminary data analysis, and the data has been analyzed, so they will not be particularly busy in a short time.
What they parsed out more clearly confirmed that Roses was trying to restore some kind of magical beast that was extremely threatening to humans, although it was not identified as Arka, but its danger had been revealed, so that Kate and Mette were able to use the power of Omano to spy on Roseos without being affected, and if they could not use this power, their actions would not have gone so smoothly.
While the leaders of Morfi were busy taking care of their own affairs, Rhines drove Aphaya back to the underground institute to arrange various matters, and returned to Fili's station.
The moment she walked through the gate of her house, she was greeted by the nonsensical noise of the Filis.
"Can't you have a little pre-war tension?"
As she walked inside, Rheins grabbed the mischievous twins into her hands. Shukka and Imiwo whispered something next to the heating, and Ella leaned on Lilian's shoulder and grinned at the grabbed twins, and Elion looked relieved and put away the twins' messy utensils one by one, carefully carrying the plates back to the kitchen.
"Do you need us to be nervous? Isn't that impossible? β
Ella's words made Rhine roll her eyes, and she sat down on the couch, where Bora was snuggling up to flip through a book that Rhines had never seen before. He seemed so engrossed that he didn't even notice the arrival of the Reins.
In this case, Reins looked at Ella, her chin raised in the direction of Bora, and asked with her eyes what was going on. Instead, Ella unceremoniously snatched the book from Bora's face.
"Wake up, silly brother, you can't even see Rhine coming?"
Bora was stunned for a moment when she saw the book being taken away, but then she came back to her senses and looked at Reins with some blankness.
"Sorry, I didn't pay attention."
Reinz raised an eyebrow, noncommittal about his apology.
"This is what the little leader of the Gula family gave Bora with some books about animal trainers and animals." Ella shook the book in her hand, a relieved expression on her face, "Pola has been in close contact with that side lately, and my lovely brother has finally made a friend of the same sex, and my sister is really happy." β
Bora pouted at his sister, and when the two siblings were arguing, Bora never wanted to give herself the upper hand.
"Why is someone who dates Iori every day qualified to speak of me? I only occasionally went to the Gura family's base, and Ella was clearly never seen from morning to night. β
Bora's counterattack left Ella speechless, and Rhines looked at the corner of the living room, and placed a few bouquets of flowers that did not belong to Fili before, and I don't know if it was Iori or Ilo Ganillo who sent them, in short, it made this living room more like an ordinary family.
However, despite what Bora says so, he has actually regarded Nado Gula as his friend, and she may need to find out what Nado's attitude towards Bora is.
Just as Rhines wanted to tell Bora something more about the Gula family, there was a scream in the kitchen that made everyone scream, and everyone jumped up from where they had been and rushed towards the kitchen.
"Ellie? What's going onβ"
The white-haired girl threw herself into Reins's arms, still sobbing, and pointed to the depths of the kitchen.
"There, there are snakes!"
Elianne's eyes were red, and there were tears rolling in her eyes, which was really distressing to watch. Rhines looked in the direction she was pointing, and a reddish snake was coiled on a shelf with cutlery spitting green letters, but it didn't seem to have any intention of coming down from the shelf.
Reins's face sank, and with a wave of his hand, he surrounded the snake with an earthy yellow cover to prevent it from swimming into the crowd.
"Huh? The snake ......" Ella looked at it suspiciously, touching her chin, not noticing that two short figures were quietly retreating, "as if it were a little familiar......
However, the two figures were interrupted from their movements, and Bora threw the twins into the kitchen with one in her hand. Rhines handed Illion to Ella, then stared at the twins, who had just gotten up and knelt on the ground, squinting angrily.
"I hardly have to ask, do I?" Reins said mockingly, "There's no doubt that this is your doing? β
The twins lowered their heads and aligned their fingers together.
"Oh, I remember." Ella patted her forehead, "When we came back from the Jokla Union, the two of them caught this snake on the side of the road and said they were going to bring it back...... Let's take a look. β
Reins snorted a breath from her nose, she glanced at Ella, looked down at the twins, and finally sighed weakly.
"Okay, Ella, you don't need to intercede for them, they just brought it back to scare people." Speaking of this, Reins shook her head, "I think you should at least be taught to recognize what you can deal with and what you can't. β
The whole body is bright red, with a triangular head and an emerald green letter. That's the sign of the Poeyik snake, a snake that is poisonous, but not just physically. If anything, it has the same trait as the Soul Wound - it is capable of releasing toxins that hurt the soul.
After educating the twins and informing the other Fili by the way, looking at the twins who didn't realize the problem, Rhines rubbed her forehead helplessly.
"Because this snake is still small, it doesn't like to attack others for the time being, and it probably wants to see what you want to do. But please be aware of the problem - Ellie's soul has a deadly allure for such creatures that can attack souls, even if their nature is mild and harmless, they will not be able to resist Ellie. β
Speaking of which, Reins looked at Eliam, perhaps she should think about how to fulfill Talos's needs as soon as possible, that is, to strip Elianne's soul of the soul energy that had overflowed.
"You should be grateful to Yili for not touching the snake as recklessly as you did but seeking our help, otherwise Yili would be in a worse situation now than Hua Shao was then." Reins's tone became stern, "The Pur is not as poisonous as the Soul Wounding Beast, but Eli's soul has almost zero resistance to malicious negativity, and you almost killed her." β
That is, the siblings Rosser and Rossiel went out on a mission, otherwise this incident would be enough for them to turn against the twins.
Oh, what was she thinking? Reins sighed inwardly. She was so dizzy, she hadn't allowed Rosser to pursue Ellie, no, she refused to admit that there was an affair between them, they were supposed to be just friends! Ellie is only 16 years old!
Reins brought herself back to her senses and looked at the twins, and after being satisfied to see that the two of them were genuinely reflecting this time, she kicked the others out of the kitchen.
"Mida and Mita are here to reflect and then you will find a way to deal with the snake yourself. Everyone else went to the living room to find a place to stay, let's talk about this operation. β
That evening, Smoffa returned from the church to his base in Molfi. After he returned, Ciruo also had a lot of energy, and then she was about to fall into a coma for a while, so the two of them hurried to be alone. Although he has always said that he has confidence in them, when he really has to face the unknown, he will inevitably be nervous.
According to Zruo's own feedback, Rossos had begun to make tentative contact with her soul, and the maiden followed Rheins's instructions to resist using the stone they had specially made to store part of Smofa's soul breath, so that Rossos thought that neither the church nor the Philip could help her at this time.
According to Reins' calculations, such temptations would continue a few more times until Roses was convinced that they were helpless about the situation of Zruo before he officially attacked the broken seal.
During this period of temptation, the people of Roses should also pay special attention to the movements of the Filis, especially Rhines himself. Therefore, the people of Morfi set out with Epivos first, while Reins, together with Apaya, visited the different mercenary guilds, starting with Peach's guild, as if they were looking for a cure for Tshiro to attract Rossos's attention.
Because Apaya had escaped the ruins safely with her, Roses must have conducted a focused investigation into Apaya later, but because Kate and Mette were interfering with her, they would not find any important information. This time she took Apaya with her, and Rossos must have set her sights on the two of them even more.
"Rossos should focus on you, if they can't find anything in the end, or know about the relationship between you and me, there is a high chance that they will attack you...... It's going to be very dangerous to go out this time, Apaya. β
In fact, Rhine's prediction was based on the fact that the gray-haired instructor still held on to his pride and did not inform Rossos of his attack on Morfi. If Mayvotos had already told Rossos about her, they would have been twice as dangerous this time.
But Apaya didn't look too nervous, or rather, on the contrary, he smiled pleasantly.
"As long as I'm with you, it doesn't matter." Apaya gently took Rheins' hand and placed it on his chest, "I'm glad you didn't leave me behind this time." β
Rhines blinked, deciding to forgive Appaya for what had angered her before.
