Arknights: Theresa'S Miraculous Arrival

Chapter 37: Chitinous bayonet

"Theresa, are you there? It's so dark here."

"I'm here. I can feel you, where are you?"

"I don't know, I can't see anything, it's so crowded here..."

Unlike the darkness of closed eyes, Xing Chen felt as if he had lost his sense of sight, and at the same time, his hands and feet were nowhere to be found.

But at the same time, he also felt that he should still have a physical body, and if he guessed correctly, the person beside him was Theresa.

Theresa also almost reacted, and the two of them seemed to have encountered an unknown sudden situation.

"Theresa, use the Crown, don't worry about me."

"Okay, tell me if anything feels uncomfortable."

Theresa activated the ability of Civilization's Continuance, extending her perception further.

Soon, she had the answer.

The two of them must have arrived in Terra, but they did not exist in normal space. At the same time, their bodies were in an abnormal state.

So, she used the ability of Weave and Reconstruct the Present World to transform this space as much as possible into a state that the two of them could perceive normally.

As his vision returned, Xing Chen blinked, and the scene before him was a desolate and silent land.

Looking up, he couldn't see the iconic twin moons and the star-pod-disguised starry sky, only endless darkness with a faint moonlight.

Theresa walked from behind, she stood beside Xing Chen, silently retracting her Crown.

This was Terra, but not the land the two of them were familiar with.

"Do you have any ideas, Theresa?"

Theresa shook her head; she had never seen such a landscape before.

"We should be on a train right now, maybe it has something to do with that."

"What's the connection?" Theresa asked curiously.

"Although the two of us weren't moving in bed, relative to the ground, we were constantly in motion."

Xing Chen suspected that perhaps his state and the location where he arrived in Terra might have some kind of mapping relationship, but he couldn't prove it.

"Forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything. Thinking so much is useless, let's explore here first."

This Different Space seemed unusually vast, and the mist in the space also seemed to block perception. Even a powerful Caster like Theresa could only explore a small area around her.

"Xing Chen, I feel that this space might be related to Originium," Theresa offered her opinion based on intuition.

"But I remember that the scene in the Internalized Universe should be a golden ocean," Xing Chen made his judgment based on the information he had.

To prevent getting lost, Theresa tied their waists together with a rope, and hand-in-hand, they wandered aimlessly across the desolate land.

Suddenly, Theresa stopped, her pointed ears straightened, as if she had discovered something.

"I think... I heard the song of a Banshee."

Theresa recalled the melody her Banshee best friend had once shown her, which was almost identical to the sound she was hearing.

She used Originium Arts to turn the sound into a thread, guiding the two of them to find the source of the sound.

It didn't take long. On the desolate, dark land, a slowly wriggling shadow appeared.

Drawing a little closer, Theresa discovered that it was actually a team of Sarkaz migrating.

The Lich's thread passed through the palm of each person in the team, leading them to move slowly in an unknown direction, following the Banshee's song.

"Theresa, have you sensed anything?"

The two did not approach rashly, but hid behind a nearby stone to observe.

"I'm not sure, Xing Chen. But I think they shouldn't be alive. I didn't feel any emotional fluctuations from them."

No hostility, that makes things easier.

The two walked forward, and Theresa found a Goliath among a group of black-robed Sarkaz.

"Hello, may I ask where you are going?"

The Goliath did not answer, not even turning his head, but silently followed the team forward.

Unwilling to give up, Theresa tried several other targets, and everyone's reaction was surprisingly consistent.

That is, there was no feedback whatsoever.

Theresa was a little disappointed. Xing Chen hugged her to cheer her up. Then, the two followed the direction of the team's movement, trying to find some clues.

"Theresa, is this mask with an eye drawn on it a Cyclops?"

"It seems so, but most of them have migrated north, and I haven't seen many."

"And the one with wings? That should be a Stonefiend."

"Hmm, but now we all call them Children of Earth and Stone. I've lived for two hundred years and have never seen a winged Stonefiend in Kazdel."

"The one with sparks flying..."

"WOC! How is there even an Infernal Demon!"

Although every Sarkaz in the team was wearing a cloak, through obvious external features, the two could easily identify the Royal Court they belonged to.

However, the further they walked, the rarer these Sarkaz with distinct features became.

Both of them felt that they should be nearing the end, but the team still stretched as far as the eye could see.

Suddenly, Xing Chen noticed a touch of pink in the team and quickly pulled Theresa.

The genetic characteristics of Terrans are bizarre, and Sarkaz are even more astonishing. Pink hair is not a very rare existence.

"Hello, I'd like to ask something." Xing Chen tried to greet this Sarkaz, and this time, he successfully got a response.

The pink-haired Sarkaz turned her face, and at this moment, both he and Theresa saw her appearance.

"Is this... me?"

Theresa felt a little incredible. She knew her body was with the Military Commission, but what was she? A soul? If so, who was she?

The confusion of identity made her fall into a trance, and Xing Chen quickly held her hand tightly.

At this moment, Theresa in the team looked at Xing Chen with empty eyes, then took something out of her pocket.

Xing Chen was all too familiar with it --- it was a chitinous bayonet.

Xing Chen showed great curiosity as to why a Seaborn weapon would appear on a Sarkaz.

Moreover, why would she give him such an extremely aggressive weapon?

Xing Chen did not get the answer he wanted. He only saw "Theresa" raise her hand, and as Xing Chen and Theresa looked in that direction, a huge Originium storm was attacking them in their field of vision.

The Sarkaz team was completely unmoved by the Originium storm, and "Theresa" then returned to her marching state.

In this wilderness, there was no space or facility for the two of them to hide.

Soon, under the action of the violent storm, Xing Chen and Theresa were swept into the sky.

"Theresa, hold tight!" To prevent the disoriented Theresa from being blown away, he had to shout to remind her.

"I know!"
