Arknights Welcome to Terra Continent

"Nanxi, it's not that I won't save you... No, sister Nanxi, it's not that I, as your younger brother, won't save you, it's just that the timing of this save is too unfortunate, you understand."

Beichen curled his lips, moved a small stool and sat down.

Yes, Beichen had no intention of going in at all. At least this time, he had no intention of entering Chernobyl to do anything.

I did spend too much time in a daze outside the city just now. It feels like it would be a complete waste of time to go in so late, so let's try again.

Putting away the small stool, Beichen pulled out the nail from his arm, and after a brief trance, he left the dream.

"Strange, what on earth is this............."

As soon as he came out, Beichen heard the voice of Logos talking to himself. He supported his chin with his hand, and it was unknown what he was thinking about.

"Logos, there shouldn't be any changes to the files."

Beichen asked before leaving the archives room.

"Not yet."

"That's good."

After getting the accurate answer, Beichen ran out of the archive room and ran back in just a few minutes.

Well, we should consider tying Nan Xi over, otherwise running around is really a waste of time.

"Beichen, wait a moment, I forgot to tell you this just now, you see............"

Noticing that Logos had returned to the archives room, he stood up from his seat and started talking, but when he turned his head, he only saw Beichen who had covered his head with a quilt.

Let's talk to him after he wakes up.

Logos sat down again and looked at the incomplete spell in front of him again.

When did I leave this message? Why can't I understand it at all?

No, that's not right, I remember now.

Vague memories resurfaced in Logos' mind.

"It turns out to be like this, is there any solution?"

After just a few seconds of thinking, Logos gave up the idea.

Sorry, I can’t do it. It seems that the next thing will have to be left to Beichen himself.

It's really uncomfortable to have this memory jumping back and forth in my mind.

Logos shook his head slightly, put the file aside, and sighed.

Beichen in the dream opened his eyes again and took out the terminal.

Then, start counting.

Counting the time silently in his mind, Beichen turned on the timing device of the terminal, and then rushed into the city of Chernobyl at a high speed.

The detection range is directly expanded to the maximum to lock the position of every person, or humanoid creature.

There is no other way, I can only use the clumsy method to look for them one by one.

Beichen confirmed the locations of every person he could detect on the ground one by one in the air, while crossing out the areas that had already been searched on the map.

Tsk, I didn’t realize how many people there are in Chernobyl before, how come I only find out the population density is so high now that I use my ability to investigate?

The natural disaster has officially arrived. Every time a meteorite falls, Beichen will be able to explore fewer targets.

Although it may be a bit unpleasant to say this, the arrival of the natural disaster did reduce Beichen's workload a lot.

For example, the source stone crystal that just passed by you, only when it actually falls to the surface can you accurately feel its size and destructive power.

An entire block was destroyed, and the targets hiding in the basement were eliminated from Beichen's detection in an instant.

Perhaps I should be thankful that the basement where I was hiding with Nan Xi was not hit head-on by such a large Originium crystal.

Time was passing by unknowingly, but Beichen only realized it when it stopped again.

It happened too fast, and there was too little time left for him.

Beichen took out the terminal and pressed the stop button, then looked at the time displayed on it.

Just right, fifteen minutes, not a second more or less. If you count the few seconds when I didn't take out the terminal when I first came in, it's probably only five seconds longer.

Then, let’s do it again.

After crossing out the current block on the map, Beichen pulled out the nail and left the dream.

Don't ask him why he didn't try to find a breakthrough in this stagnant time.

He just thought that the occurrence of this situation must be accompanied by the survival of one or more key figures.

Just think of it as a form of escapism. You simply don't want to see those people die in front of you.

Even if it's fake, that won't work.

"Logos, anything?"

Beichen asked, sitting up from the bed.

"Not sure... I think I left a string of spells for myself? Or maybe two strings."

Logos was frowning, staring at the air in front of him, and continued.

"It may take me some time. Until then, please continue."

Before Logos could finish speaking, Beichen rushed out again.

This time it took even less time to come back because I was already familiar with the route.

I don’t know if there will be any side effects from this nail, but I feel like Nan Xi is about to lose her immunity.

Then, do it a billion times more!

Open your eyes, take out your terminal, set a fifteen-minute countdown, open the map, confirm the locations you have been to, and then re-plan your route.

However, this time the detection is more difficult than the last time.

Perhaps because they had arrived in a residential area, there were more people than before, with more than a dozen people even crowded in a small room.

This makes it much more difficult to confirm the identity, and sometimes one even has to open the door and confirm with one's eyes.

"Hmm? Is it time again?"

Beichen heard a slight "beeping" sound from the terminal in his pocket, which meant that he only had one minute left.

Although the progress this time was not that fast, but combined the two trips together we managed to search 50% of the city.

Even if I'm unlucky, it will only happen twice more.

A minute passed in the blink of an eye, and the buzzing sound of the terminal meant the end of the countdown.

Okay, we’ll find it soon. I hope nothing else goes wrong.

But generally speaking, when this thought pops up in your mind, something weird is bound to happen.

For example, now, when Beichen reacted and took out the terminal, almost a full minute had passed, but time was still passing.

Although I have more time to search, I am not happy at all.

"(Da Yan swears), can just looking for someone cause the world line to change?!"
