Walking over to Misha and examining her, Kanna confird she was unhard before turning to the Yeti Squad mbers and saying,
"I know a lot about you, and I know the story of Ilena and Captain Bozdraskasti. So, I don't intend to make things difficult for you. However, I need to take Misha back. As for whether you plan to leave Lungn or return with to see how Frostnova is doing, I won't stop you." With that, Kanna took Misha's hand, ready to leave.
"You really won't hurt Dajietou (Big Sister)?" Just as Kanna was about to leave, a voice ca from behind her.
"Frostnova and Patriot were deceived by that person. I also understand that you don't wish to be enemies with the world. After all, whether Infected or ordinary citizens, everyone on this land is just desperately trying to survive. Reunion Movent's current approach is undoubtedly a dead end. Haven't you considered what fate the entire Ursus Infected population will face if you truly continue with the plan?"
Kanna guessed that according to Reunion Movent's previous policy, they intended to use the capture of a city as a base, then rally and declare, "The heavens are dead, long live the yellow sky," subsequently inciting a rebellion of the Infected throughout Ursus. Ultimately, they would gather the Infected around Reunion Movent, forcing Ursus officials to recognize their independence, thereby achieving an improvent in the status of the Infected in Ursus.
However, the core of this plan was Talulah, as the leader. If she were still the fighter striving for the plight of the Infected, it would naturally have a high chance of success. But because of Alina's incident, her spirit developed a flaw and was corrupted by the Black Snake. The current Talulah could be said to have mostly transford into the Black Snake's shape, so this plan had been heading in the wrong direction from the very beginning.
Unfortunately, Patriot was a powerful warrior, but not a sorcerer skilled in manipulating minds and souls. The only one who might have seen the Black Snake's true form, phisto, chose to collude with him due to early experiences.
The mbers of the Yeti Squad who followed Frostnova were mostly her trusted subordinates and elites who had journeyed with Frostnova across the vast, snow-covered lands of Ursus.
Upon learning that peace talks were possible and Frostnova might not have to die, everyone's spirits were rekindled.
"Dajietou (Big Sister) is not like Old Fogey. Although she is as stubborn as Old Fogey when it cos to decisions she's made, if there's a truly better way, she will make a different choice. In the current situation, if you go and tell Dajietou (Big Sister), she might not listen. Why don't we try?"
As several people who had followed Ilena all along, they didn't want her to die so senselessly in Lungn. So, after Kanna confird Rhodes Island's policy, they proactively offered to persuade Frostnova to surrender.
Kanna readily agreed to the Yeti Squad's suggestion. After all, with her strength, she wasn't afraid of them betraying her. Moreover, if they did betray her, they would gain no benefit, only lose a few more lives.
The group returned to the battlefield along the sa path. By now, the battlefield was a ss.
To give the Yeti Squad a chance to escape, Frostnova had unleashed her full power. Except for Kanna, who had escaped, all the other Rhodes Island Operators were suppressed by her alone in this small area.
Fortunately, most of those present were Rhodes Island elites, and with the assistance of "reliable Kanna clone grenades," the situation had remained evenly matched.
At this mont, Frostnova's heart was filled with anxiety, because the person who had escaped to pursue the Yeti Squad was the one she most wanted to trap. She didn't know if her comrades would safely escape Lungn. The only thing she could do was to hold back the remaining Rhodes Island personnel as much as possible, preventing them from having the opportunity to support Kanna.
The rest was up to fate.
However, fate did not favor her. Just as she was struggling to resist the corrosion of Kanna's clones, a sound ca from behind her, and the owners of that sound were Kanna, whom she least wanted to face, and her own comrades.
Knowing that everyone had been captured, Frostnova's eyes lost their light. She stood blankly on the spot, unsure if she should continue fighting.
"Dajietou (Big Sister), Miss Kanna told us that Rhodes Island respects you and Old Fogey, and doesn't want to be our enemy. Dajietou (Big Sister), aren't you trying to seize leadership of Reunion Movent from Talulah? Now, most of the radicals who followed phisto suffered heavy casualties in the Chernobog battle. If we, Lungn, and Rhodes Island work together, we might just be able to take control of Reunion Movent's future actions from the leader."
A mber of the Yeti Squad spoke up.
The Doctor on the other side also heard the conversation here. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead under his hood. He had underestimated Frostnova's combat power. Without any support or help, she alone had trapped everyone except Kanna in this room. Although he could withdraw from the fight based on his strength, for so many of them to fight one person and still need to retreat didn't that prove her strength?
"Ms. Frostnova, as your comrades said, we are not trying to fight you to the death. Although I don't know why Reunion Movent would attack Chernobog and Lungn, I believe this is not the true intention of Reunion Movent's existence. After all, I believe both you and I are fighting for a better tomorrow for the Infected. Therefore, we should be friends, not opponents, and certainly not enemies…"
"Enough. Ask what you want to know. If it's sothing I can say, I will tell you."
She didn't know if her comrades were sincere or if they were coerced by that girl, but it was clear that everyone was at on the chopping block—at the rcy of others.
At this mont, she only hoped that Rhodes Island would keep its word and truly be an organization that spoke for the Infected. This way, her comrades might still have a chance to survive.
"Why did Reunion Movent attack Lungn? What is the next plan? Aren't you afraid of provoking a war between Ursus and Yan?"
The Doctor walked up to Frostnova after she gave up fighting and asked. These questions were carefully prepared by him to answer another one of his doubts.
"?"
Frostnova looked at the Doctor with a puzzled expression.
"We, Reunion Movent, only want to seize a mobile city from Ursus as our base and as a condition for communication with the Ursus high command. Coming to Lungn was also because Lungn itself has many low-level Infected, so we ca to recruit so low-level Infected who couldn't make ends et. With our current strength, how could we possibly wage war on Lungn? Not to ntion that one Chernobog is enough for Reunion Movent to digest for a long ti; even taking Lungn wouldn't benefit us at all, would it?"
After listening to Frostnova's words, the Doctor nodded. His other doubt was completely resolved.
