Book 4: Chapter 30: Doctor
Actually, you can ask me to finish off the other player. I guarantee no one will realize it. Or, I could beat up the other player to the point where they can’t live without assistance.
Kal’tsit: I will when I need to.
Efreet: Let me translate. There’s no need at all. I’m the deputy leader of a faction. We fear people who are not part of the plan acting up suddenly.
17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: The success of a plan is not dependent on just the result but also the process.
Lord of the White Night: As long as Kal’tsit is a competent leader, she will not take you into consideration, as you are not part of her world. No matter how strong you are, you won’t be there for long.
Alright. In any case, I’m only here for a holiday. You schemers who use psychological warfare have tainted hearts.
Kal’tsit: …
Lord of the White Night: …
Efreet: …
17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: …
Queen of Ice and Snow: …
Sorry, I was wrong.
Chen Heng suddenly realized he had just mocked close to half the people in the association. These people were important figures of factions, and they all had tainted hearts.
Hah…it looks like only Chen Heng is the last untainted flower, a national treasure.
“Doctor, quickly grab my hand.”
After a long resuscitation effort, Doctor finally woke up. Now, he struggled to come out of the Sarcophagus.
“Ah! Be careful. You can’t…don’t move first. Your body has not fully adjusted yet.” Although waking up was a good thing, the Medic did not let Doctor stand up. After all, no patient immediately stood up after surgery.
“Doctor…” The anxious Amiya stared at Doctor while gripping the Sarcophagus.
“You…who are you?” An extremely neutral voice came from the hood hiding Doctor’s face.
Excellent, it is just like the story. Doctor really suffered amnesia.
Kal’tsit, I have a medicinal pill that can treat memory loss. Should I give it to him? Of course, it’s just a chance of success; there’s no guarantee.
Kal’tsit: There’s no need for now.
As long as you are happy. Speaking of which, don’t you need to work?
Kal’tsit: Delaying work for a while is fine.
“Ah! Doctor, I…I’m Amiya. We are here to rescue you.” Although Amiya wanted to explain, she hesitated when she opened her mouth. After all, it looked like Doctor had amnesia. Doctor might not understand the explanation, so she might as well just say they were there to rescue Doctor.
“…I am…?”
“You…you are like us, also a member of the Rhodes Island organization. You are my companion, Dr. Yog. You are my most important companion. Doctor…don’t you remember?”
“…”
At this point, Chen Heng stopped listening. The name Yog kept bringing Yog-Sothoth to mind.
[TL Note: Yog-Sothoth is part of the Cthulhu mythos, one of the Lovecraftian gods. Yog-Sothoth is the progenitor of Cthulhu. Here is more information on Yog-Sothoth: /wiki/Yog-Sothoth.]
Furthermore, this was the same name Chen Heng used in the game.
…This is just a coincidence, right?
Poke-poke! Poke-poke!
As Chen Heng pondered, Shining came to Chen Heng and poked his side.
“Don’t poke me. I’m ticklish.”
“…” Upon hearing Chen Heng’s objection, Shining started poking him again, despite having already withdrawn her hand earlier.
If you tell me to stop and I stop, won’t I—Shining—lose face?
“Do you still have that amnesia medicine?”
“It’s useless. Give up. The situation is different. Secret medicine is not omnipotent.”
As Chen Heng spoke with Shining, the basement suddenly shook. The tremor came from above.
“Amiya, there’s a situation! Someone barged into the facility!” One of the Vanguards keeping watch arrived from the passageway.
Then, a group of Reunion members rushed in. There are many people, about 30 to 40, making the initially spacious basement feel cramped.
Whizz! A crossbow bolt shot towards Shining. It looks like the Reunion members were not fools, knowing to target the Medic first. Unfortunately…
Shining wanted to make a move, but Chen Heng caught the bolt. This caused her to raise her eyebrows. She knew Chen Heng was a skilled swordsman, but she had not expected his reaction and strength to be so high.
“Everyone, pay attention. Search for the bunker and protect Doctor!”
Upon seeing the Reunion Movement, Amiya attacked without saying anything, then ordered everyone to search for the bunker.
Since she had brought several heavily equipped operators on this operation, she could hold the defense.
However, something was jamming long-distance communication. She could not contact Kal’tsit. Of course, this referred to the rest. Kal’tsit was still watching Chen Heng’s livestream.
“Doctor, it’s your turn to take command. Please! Please lend us your strength! We will support you!”
“…”
“I don’t wish to pull you into these conflicts, either, but we greatly need Doctor’s wisdom now. I hope Doctor can find your past feelings in the battle. Perhaps you might not be confident in yourself…but I trust you. You can do it! Please command Rhodes Island!”
Initially, Chen Heng wanted to crush these Reunion members. However, he withdrew his raised hand when he saw Amiya pleading with Doctor.
I’ll take it as giving Amiya face. At least she won’t get slapped in the face right after saying that.
“Sure. There are more enemies than us, so we cannot fight them head-on. First…” These words showed that Doctor had training in combat situations. Doctor could even face the enemies calmly and issue commands when the enemy outnumbered his operators three or four times.
“That’s right. Is there a Sniper here?” Doctor looked around and did not see anyone with a crossbow or firearm.
Evidently, Doctor had lost only memories, not common sense.
“There is, Doctor. However, Kal’tsit sent only one Sniper for some reason. Mister He Who Knows Fate, come over for a moment.”
“Speak. What do you need me to do?” Chen Heng suddenly appeared at the side.
“Do you see the person in the nine o’clock direction, the one dressed differently from these ruffians? He should be the leader of this group. Attack him with everything you have. Can you finish him off?”
“No problem at all.” Chen Heng swung his guitar bag to the front after hearing Doctor’s order. After opening the bag, he assembled his Electromagnetic Sniper Rifle within 20 seconds.
Amiya was not shocked, as she had seen the sniper rifle before. However, it was different for Shining, who was seeing it for the first time. After all, such a ridiculous gun far surpassed all the firearms in her memory.
