Just as Skullshatterer's eyes were bloodshot, wanting to see the Doctor's despair before death, he suddenly felt a heavy blow to his head. The next second, he passed out, and the Arts he was preparing reversed at that moment.
"This guy seems a bit slow-witted?" Kanna, standing behind Skullshatterer, clapped her hands.
As soon as Skullshatterer spoke, Amiya noticed something was wrong and signaled Kanna to move behind him.
Skullshatterer, with his attention focused on the Doctor, didn't notice Kanna who had quietly moved behind him.
And just as he thought his plan had succeeded and he wanted to take the Doctor with him to die, Kanna made her move.
She directly delivered an extremely unscrupulous and insidious slap to Skullshatterer's ear from behind, knocking him out instantly. The electric current on her hand stimulated him, triggering the almost-ready Arts within his body.
Immediately, the density of Orirock in his body rapidly increased. Fortunately, a nearby medical Operator noticed the abnormality and immediately injected him with an Orirock Blocker, temporarily and barely controlling his rapidly deteriorating condition.
"It's hopeless. Although the spread of his oripathy has been controlled, his Arts were already triggered. The Orirock particles in his body have transformed into highly active Orirock forms. Even with medication, he won't live for more than three days, and by then, he will rapidly crystallize and explode, which is very dangerous."
After a brief examination, the medical Operator shook his head and delivered his death notice.
"Take him with us. Three days of life is enough. As long as we hand him over to Lungmen, his death anywhere will be irrelevant to Rhodes Island."
The Doctor calmly walked to the door. Since he had promised Chen that he would hand over this perpetrator of the attack on the Lungmen Guard Department / Guard Department, he would not break his word.
As for what condition he would be in when handed over, that was beyond his control.
After stepping out, the Doctor looked at everyone.
"Our next steps are clear. First, arrange for two people to take this guy to a safe place for detention. Then, Kanna, can you pinpoint Misha's location?"
Kanna smiled and raised her wrist-watch-wearing hand, "Not just me, everyone can see Misha's location."
The Doctor instantly understood Kanna's meaning. He raised his wrist communicator, and upon opening it, clearly saw a position detached from the team heading towards an outlying area of Lungmen.
"When did you put that on her?" Amiya asked, a little surprised, from the side.
"Just before you brought her back and were about to leave, I gave her a watch, saying it was a gift from you. She happily accepted it!"
Everyone looked at Kanna speechlessly. Rhodes Island's new communicator was given away by her like this. If its usage method were discovered, wouldn't Reunion Movement be able to easily detect Rhodes Island's routes and chat records... "Eh heh! Isn't it just right now?!" ( / ≧ ▽ ≦ ) /
Seeing Kanna's attempt to cutely muddle through, everyone had no choice but to accept reality.
"Then let's act immediately and try to rescue Misha as soon as possible."
The Doctor also knew that there was no time to lose. If Reunion Movement discovered the watch's usage, it would pose a huge threat to Rhodes Island.
"There was something I forgot to mention just now..." Kanna said, pretending to slap her head after they left.
"I heard from Fumizuki / Wen Yue that Reunion Movement has a cadre named Alex, who is Misha's brother, whom we are looking for. One of their goals this time is to bring his sister back."
Hearing this, the few of them paused, as they had just noticed that Skullshatterer, whose mask was removed, looked somewhat similar to Misha.
However, at the time, they were shocked by the fact that Alex was the mastermind behind the attack on the Lungmen Lungmen Guard Department / Guard Department, so they didn't think in that direction.
Recalling it now, the captured cadre indeed shared many physical similarities with Misha.
After hearing Kanna's words, Amiya felt a little sad because Misha had talked about her brother when they chatted before and had hoped Rhodes Island could help her find him. However, she never expected that while he was found, it was in this current state.
"The plan remains unchanged. Whether the person we captured is Misha's brother or not, it doesn't prevent us from rescuing Misha. Reunion Movement has already harmed him; they cannot harm Misha as well."
Amiya, having recovered from her sadness, spoke.
The Doctor beside her also nodded, agreeing with Amiya's statement.
Meanwhile, Frostnova was leading Misha towards the rendezvous point she had agreed upon with Skullshatterer.
"Who are you? Why are you capturing me...?" When her vehicle was attacked and the entire car was violently torn open by Frostnova's Arts, she initially thought she would meet her death. But to her surprise, several people climbed into the car, picked her up, and ran.
"Don't be scared. Dajietou (Big Sister) is just in a bad mood. We won't hurt you..." A man walking beside them said, comforting the panicked Misha.
"Hmm, Dajietou (Big Sister), what was Skullshatterer's name again...?"
"Alex," Frostnova, who was ahead, couldn't stand her subordinate's chattering and finally spoke.
Hearing this name, Misha first froze, then excitedly grabbed the arm of the person next to her. "You mean Alex? My brother Alex?"
"Yes, that's him. We are here at his request to rescue you. Lungmen knows your father has an important connection to Chernobog and is trying to get information through you. So, after Alex received information that Lungmen was searching for you, he became very anxious. However, he also has his own mission and couldn't leave, so he sent us to bring you over."
During the Yeti Squad's conversation, Misha also let down her guard. At this moment, her heart was filled with the thought of reuniting with her brother, and her eyes showed a glimmer of hope.
After the group reached their destination, Frostnova looked around.
"Let's rest first! If the plan goes smoothly, Alex will be back soon, and then you two siblings can meet."
Although she wasn't fond of Skullshatterer's style, she thought Misha was a good person and hoped that with family ties, Skullshatterer would no longer be so radical. His radicalism would not only harm his subordinates but also himself, and Reunion Movement could no longer afford to lose another cadre.
Therefore, even with significant differences in style, Frostnova would fully cooperate with his actions.
Just as the group was resting, Frostnova suddenly stood up and looked towards a direction near the city's edge.
"Yeti Squad, prepare! Enemies are coming!" Just as her voice fell, a nearby gate was punched open, and Kanna rushed into Reunion Movement's safe house first.
