it is Arknights!

Chapter 154: Chapter 52 Transfer



Chapter 52 Transfer

Perhaps it was a famous saying by someone, or perhaps just a maxim born from the simple passage of time.

As long as you live on, good things will always happen.

Although the premise lies in living on, because if you die unluckily, there will be nothing left, but living on itself is indeed a good thing. A sufficiently long time can ensure that originally very terrible and morbid pain can also be endured. After all, humans are creatures with very strong adaptability, possibly even more capable of survival than cockroaches in some respects. After all, cockroaches find it hard to survive on an ice plain, but humans still can. So, good things will always happen as long as you live on.

Li Lin thought so too. Look, living honestly, relying on his own abilities and kindness in this unfamiliar world, constantly releasing goodwill to those around, cautiously completing his duties, he eventually became a homeowner, and even had his own company.

What does this show? As long as you live on, good things will indeed happen.

"Hey, Li Lin, do you still want this manga?"

"Yes… Don't move, just put it in the alley for me."

"I didn't move it randomly, but I didn't expect you, Li Lin, to actually like Feline race? Surprising."

"Why are you suddenly sitting on the bed so brazenly reading manga?"

Li Lin, who was packing his things, looked at Lappland who suddenly sat on the bed reading manga, feeling his blood pressure seem to rise a few points again.

While living alone, Li Lin often tinkered with some personal items in this room. Such as some strange mechanical devices, some lucky stones or miscellaneous props freeloaded (- get something for free, often online slang) from Croissant, literary works and art pieces he had seen in his previous world that he wrote and drew himself, and the like.

Literary works were fine, but Li Lin really lacked the skill for art. He could only look at online-ordered manga to satisfy his cravings. But the manga produced in a war-torn world really couldn't be called good or bad, basically all anti-war and praying for peace. Various dark, profound, and pretentious themes were rampant, making Li Lin feel incredibly depressed. But unfortunately, this stuff was still politically correct in this world; Li Lin had no choice but to randomly find a few manga with good art styles to look at as study material.

As for why they were all cat-eared lolis, Li Lin swore to heaven it absolutely wasn't his own fetish, but that people in this world just liked this kind of thing.

Truly abominable. Really shameless.

"Stop looking, quickly pack your things, we need to hurry and meet up with Texas."

"I don't have many things, basically just underwear, phone, and stuff; wouldn't it be fine if you helped me pack, Li Lin?"

"Do your own things yourself. And pack up all your fur, bring the fur remover too."

"Can't we just buy a new one… The new style doesn't even hurt…"

Lappland scratched her butt, packing her personal items with a reluctant expression. And Croissant outside was clanging and banging, packing a large pile of miscellaneous things obtained from somewhere unknown. Just watching her move boxes, she had already moved several downstairs.

And Angelina, trembling aside, repeatedly emphasized she was going to Rhodes Island for medical treatment, but Rhodes Island was currently heading near Chernobog, also approaching an Originium storm zone; however, they would return in the next month. This made Angelina stay here somewhat apprehensively. Her unique anti-gravity Originium Arts made the seemingly huge box float up lightly, effortlessly moving the largest lump of iron from Croissant's room—by the way, Croissant didn't know what it was either—out through the open window onto the vehicle downstairs. A small van was piled with things like a small mountain.

It was fortunate to have an anti-gravity module like Angelina's on top to reduce weight; otherwise, it would have taken ages to finish moving. And even with the help of anti-gravity Originium Arts, the entire vehicle looked wobbly. When Li Lin carried his game console box down last, the things piled on the car were already nearly four or five meters high, looking like they would fall off as soon as it started moving.

"…Will this really not fall off?"

Sitting in the car, Li Lin listened to the creaking sounds of various boxes grinding against each other above, looked at Angelina in front, who was pursing her lips and operating her Arts, and said with some worry.

"Relax, relax~ Don't judge Angelina by her appearance, she was a messenger in Sargon ( Sargon in Arknights lore) before, trust her~"

"So if you all have such modern tools, why does the profession of messenger still exist…"

"Writing letters is people's romance."

"…"

You make so much sense, I'm actually speechless.

Looking at Croissant's matter-of-fact expression, Li Lin didn't know what to say. And Texas quickly kicked the dawdling Lappland, got into the driver's seat herself, and skillfully put her hand on the manual gearshift.

"Is everyone here? Then I'm driving."

"Driver master, I haven't fastened my seatbelt ye—Oomph…"

The vehicle, with a head full of cargo, swayed and drove off into the distance. The group didn't realize several pairs of eyes were watching them from behind.

"…I will only allow this once, Wei Yenwu. I will not let you use my employees as toys. I believe your words, but I also only believe you this once. If there is a next time, you will not want to see this scene. I swear. Columbia cannot restrain me, neither can you."

"Pleasure cooperating, believe you will understand my intentions sooner or later. Just like that little girl Ch'en."

"Hmph, who knows? Don't try anything on my side again."

The Emperor ( Penguin, referring to the boss of Penguin Logistics) flapped his fins, spat towards the smiling Wei Yenwu with his back turned, then turned and left the alley.

And several figures in black silently infiltrated the now-empty Penguin Logistics dormitory, thoroughly erasing the things inside with some strange Originium Arts, and recreated a similar scene. And in the surveillance cameras, those departing Penguin Logistics members also disappeared.

Those strange shadows extracted the atmosphere of having lived there. In the magical sense, a once-inhabited residence also held a considerably strong magical atmosphere. Moving Penguin Logistics out entirely, then extracting the surrounding atmosphere, creating several qualified strategic-level smoke bombs, was not a difficult task for Lungmen. If they could find some old Lazarus File documents from the hidden compartments, that would be an even bigger gain.

"Lord Wei Yenwu, no special documents were found inside."

"Doesn't matter. Has the Originium atmosphere and air atmosphere extraction been completed?"

"Already completed. Can create about four spell-like atmosphere Originium warheads."

"Then that's enough. Although not enough to kill people, scaring them a bit is still possible… That's about it. Wish our friends have fun in the bonsai."

Glancing at the dimmed neon sign that had lost power, Wei Yenwu shook his head, his huge figure hiding in the shadows of the street, disappearing from sight.
