Arknights: Iron-Blooded Savior

The Sakaz miner's tone suddenly became furious:

"Are you the younger brother of Fick's [Sakaz foul mouth] mongrel?!"

Rankopel stopped in front of Fika and said to the Sakaz miner:

"It's none of Fica's business, he returned to Rembito from Usas with me, he doesn't know anything about the situation here, and if the manager is him, I promise you that it will never be what you say."

The Sakaz miner, too, knew he was impulsive, gritted his teeth and said to Rankopel:

"I'm sorry... Mr. Rankopel, but what happened over there ... It really chilled me, a so-called demon guy, and Fick's cruelty and cold-bloodedness simply could not be described in words.

"But the most terrifying thing over there is not Fick's bloody and vicious oppression, but... The source stone vein over there... Cannibalism!! Hearing

this, Rankopel immediately stepped forward and asked:

"Source stone veins eat people? Can you tell me more about it?

The Sakaz miner said to Rankopel, his tone a little fearful:

"This incident even makes me think about it myself... But you must believe me, benefactor! The steel radish mine can't go! I can't go! The source stone vein over there is really going to eat people!

"Even the belt meat, the bones were all eaten, and there was not a single bit left!"

He took a deep breath and said to Rankopel:

"Regardless of race, whether he is Felinpelocates or a sakaz like me, eat it all!" Whether it is mutants or non-mutants, they all chewed up and swallowed! Lan

Kopel's eyes froze.

This is exactly the same as the situation I just encountered... That weird to the extreme hello, nutrients still echo in my mind.

"You know something, tell me, the more detailed the better."

Rankopel immediately bent down and said to the Sakaz miner.

"Ahem... Well, let me talk to you.

The Sakaz miner coughed a few times and said to Rankopel:

"Under Fick's oppression and persecution, I think every day about escaping here, and what happened that day... Directly let me completely confirm the idea of escaping from this mine. "

That day... It was late at night when I saw Fick go down to the mine alone.

"I remembered the last time he cut off the Sakaz teenager's hand, and anger surged and I secretly wanted to approach Fick from the rear with a cross pickaxe."

"As a result... [Sakaz foul language] Good fellow, not only did I have this idea, I didn't start yet, a dozen other miners sneaked out of various other hidden corners."

"They were all red-eyed, but exhaustion and hunger had already crushed their shoulders and legs like a mountain, and they fell to the ground one by one with muscle tremors and respiratory failure before they could barely get close to Fick."

"As a result, I saw a scene that I will never forget in my life."

The Sakaz miner swallowed his saliva and said to Rankopel:

"Fick that... The Carters, more like demons than we demons, put miners who fell to the ground because of exhaustion... All of them were carried one by one and thrown into the stone crusher!!

"A dozen miners, living people all turned into flesh and blood, Fikta loaded the flesh and blood into a small cart without changing his face, and then pushed it to the front of the source stone vein we were mining."

"Finally, he used an iron shovel to scoop up the flesh and blood in the cart piece by piece, and poured it on the source stone vein... Damn it...... Then that source stone vein actually began to absorb those flesh and blood! "

Those flesh and blood... Almost in the blink of an eye, he was eaten clean by that strange orange-red source stone vein, which was still pulsating like a blood vessel.

"To be honest, although I am a Sakaz and used to seeing blood, that time almost scared my soul out, and I was sitting directly on the ground with my butt, unable to move."

"After this, I saw even more that the source stone vein had even begun to stretch out thorn-like orange-red tentacles, directly pulling the complete miners directly into it to gnaw."

"No matter what race it is, the mine does not refuse to come, and as time goes by, more and more miners are being eaten by it, and I feel that it will soon be my turn."

Rankopel asked at the right time:

"But you managed to escape, didn't you?"

The Sakaz miner nodded and said to Rankopel:

"Yes, Mr. Rankopel, my source stone skill is to sense the flow of wind, not a very powerful source stone skill."

"After that day, I was relentlessly looking for a way out of the underground mine, and finally one day, I sensed a ventilated crack in a rock face in the underground mining cave of my steel radish mine."

"The air intake of this crack is very long, long and spread in a trumpet shape behind, and I concluded that this rock wall is brittle and there is definitely a hidden passage behind."

"Then I carved out a path with a rock-breaking hammer and a cross pickaxe, but... To put it bluntly, I was selfish and did not dare to take risks, so I went out of that passage alone.

"Then I followed the direction of the wind all the way in this underground space, and finally just crawled out of that quicksand crypt, but was caught by the mercenaries again."

The Sakaz miner let out a long sigh and said to Rankopel:

"Then, those mercenaries asked me to come to the Steel Radish Mine to find this Fika next to you, there are too many of them, I have no choice but to agree first."

"I was going to lure them to the exposed places of those veins, and then let those veins hunt them down, and I tried to escape while there was a way to escape... That's the only way I can do it.

"As a result, my plan had just started a little bit, and there was an earthquake, and I felt that eighty percent was the ghost of that vein... Alas, it took me half a day to get back here. "

That's all I can tell you, Mr. Rankopel, anyway, over there at the Steel Radish Mine... I really don't advise anyone to go over. Rankopel

said to the Sakaz miner:

"We came to the steel radish mine to stop these things, but the underground space signal is too poor, and we have no way to communicate with the outside world."

"If you let that weird vein continue to eat the living... I had a hunch that what happened next would get out of hand, and it was a question of whether Fika and I would leave Rem Topitor safely.

The Sakaz miner looked at Rankopel and said,

"I can feel that you are strong... But that's a whole underground vein of source stone, how could we... Enemies of the primordial creation produced by the land itself?!

Rankopel said with a firm look in his eyes to the Sakaz miner:

"The existence of everything must have its weaknesses, and I must find Fick and ask everything about this vein, even if it is not a weakness... Even if it is covered with naval guns, fried! Blow it up too!

Fika said to Rankopel in an incredulous tone:

"Leader...?!" You said that you will use naval guns to bomb ?! Fika

thought for a moment that this was Rankopel's impulsive speech, if he went out of the mine and could contact the doctor, if he really used the naval gun, it would be a big deal.

You must know that even if the identification code on the Glory is expired like Chernoberg, it still shows Usas, and the high-speed ships of Usas are bombarded by naval artillery in the territory of Rembito ?!

If one is not handled well, the diplomatic turmoil caused will be directly crushed by the small boat of Rhode Island, and Chernoberg will be marked in red again.

"If necessary, we must do it... After that, I will find a way to solve the consequences with Rhode Island and everyone, and the premonition in my heart has become stronger and stronger. Rankopel

only felt that his heart was beating faster, which was exactly the same as when he faced the black snake who completely liberated his strength, and there was a terrifying sense of invastion.

"Be sure to find Fick as soon as possible."

He meditated in his heart, then stood up.

"Ah-"

Just then, the Sakaz miner let out a mournful scream.

"What's wrong with you?"

Rankopel's face changed drastically, and he immediately asked.

"My right shoulder... There's something to squeeze out!! It's that kind of monster!! The

Sakaz miner rolled on the ground in pain, and at the same time, the coarse cloth was torn, revealing the lesion on his right shoulder, where a cluster of source stones the size of half a fist grew.

Shh

At this time, the source stone crystal cluster was rapidly transforming towards orange-red, and tiny tentacles spread out like centipedes, wrapping around the neck of the Sakaz miner.

"Please kill me... Fast!! I don't want to become that kind of thing!! The

Sakaz miner yelled loudly at Rankopel with all his might, by which time the tentacles had pierced his throat, entangled his vocal cords, and his voice became twisted and harsh.

“...... Hammer. Rankopel

was silent for a moment, but a black-red hammer quickly formed behind him, and then smashed down, smashing almost the Sakhaz miner to pieces.

I thought I had saved him before... It's a pity.

"Fika... You are also a mutant, your lesion I remember you told me, in your right arm, right? Rankopel

suddenly narrowed his eyes and said to Fika.

"Yes, Leader, on my right arm, there is a puncture-type wound, and it is from there that the active source stone fragment entered my bloodstream."

Fika told Rankopel that he understood that perhaps the transformation had already begun.

“...... Over here.

Fika rolled up the sleeve of his right arm to Rankopel, which had a slender wound that stretched from his forearm to the shoulder blade of his right shoulder downwards, with a few clusters of source stones.

"No conversion...? No...... The conversion rate is very slow... Something suppressed. Lan

Koper looked at those source stone crystal clusters, but found that only a little turned orange-red, and then he suddenly realized that Fika was wearing the ore disease activity inhibition bracelet issued by Rhode Island on the wrist of his right hand.

At this time, the bracelet was emitting a light blue light, like breathing, obviously working.

"Fika... Without further ado, let's move forward as soon as possible, although this bracelet can help you suppress it strongly, but it only prolongs the time, and it will eventually fail. As

soon as Rankopel grabbed Fica, he continued to move forward.

To be honest, Rankopel didn't expect things to become so weird and complicated now.

In his own expectations, he only needs to take Fika back to the steel radish mine to get the inheritance, while his brother first persuades him to persuade him and then use coercion.

After that, they can send the Doctor and Amia to the Steel Radish Mine, suggest the Rhode Island office, and assign a resident to turn this place into a stable source of funds.

But now the situation has changed dramatically, and the mercenaries are even only a small part of the change that Rankopel fully expected.

And the most important thing is that the veins discovered and being mined by FCA in the steel radish mine, the orange-red source stone veins, the man-eating source stone veins, and the source stone veins with energy conversion benefits increased by tens of times and hundreds of times.

Now Rankopel must immediately find Fick and find out the truth of this source stone vein before proceeding to the next step, which is his only choice.
