Is It Too Late to Leave the Chat Group? Book 04 Chapter 027: Mischievous Heng

“Saying that is too much, right?”

“…Are your actions appropriate?”

“Ah! This…as long as you are happy.”

After all, Chen Heng was in another person’s world. No matter what, he had to give Kal’tsit some face.

After discussing how to deal with the aftermath if he caused a big commotion, Chen Heng started working on Arknights’s storyline.

This gaming session lasted several hours.

He had to restart if he missed even just one worm in a stage. After all, there were no rewards if he did not reach three stars, so he had to exit and replay the stage. There were some stages he simply could not clear, so he had to go online and look for the solutions. Some of the victory conditions were also very extreme, resulting in him being stuck at certain stages for a very long time.

Among the Reunion Movement’s operators, he found Crownslayer the easiest to deal with. He could use the terrain to kill Crownslayer most of the time. As for the most troublesome…FrostNova was among them. Her ice sealing ability was too disgusting. There was also Faust’s crossbow, which was way too powerful.

As Chen Heng played with his eyes closed, the others thought he was sleeping.

“He Who Knows Fate, it’s time to wake up. We are nearing the city. According to Dobermann, we will rest here and carry out maintenance, then enter the city tomorrow, taking advantage of the chaos.”

Ace’s voice rang out by Chen Heng’s ears when he had just finished Episode 6.

“We’ve already arrived? It did not feel that long.” Chen Heng opened his eyes and saw that the convoy had stopped and that Amiya and Dobermann had already left their vehicle.

“He Who Knows Fate, staying up late is not a good habit. You must have slept very late last night, right?” Shining’s occupational habit kicked in; she immediately nagged Chen Heng not to stay up late.

“I did not. I just like sleeping. I’m a well-behaved child who sleeps and wakes up early. Oh, right, Nightingale, have you eaten the special medicine I gave you?”

“I ate it.”

“Good. Come and get one more from me tomorrow. Although this medicine is very gentle, you cannot take too many in a day if your physique is weak. Taking one tomorrow should more or less heal you. How do you feel now?”

“I feel good. My body is much more relaxed. I’ll try moving my legs after getting off.”

“Alright. He Who Knows Fate, go down first. Amiya is already waving to us.”

“Alright, Ace.”

Rhodes Island’s group ate military rations for dinner, as they did not want to start a fire. After all, they had stopped at a spacious area, a desolate spot near Chernobog. If they lit a fire or produced light, they could easily attract the attention of Chernobog’s sentinels. The group preferred to avoid trouble.

After eating, Amiya and Dobermann came over to discuss the next day’s operation. Of course, it was Amiya and Dobermann speaking while Chen Heng listened.

If Chen Heng had to give ideas, it would be just “attack, snatch Doctor away, and run.” Of course, Dobermann and Amiya were smart and would not agree to such a simple plan.

“…So, that’s the plan. He Who Knows Fate, do you understand?”

“I don’t completely understand, but I don’t need to. I’m just responsible for offensive support. Our group has very few people. As long as we don’t split up, I’m confident of protecting everyone.”

“…That is not wrong. Alright, we’ll go with this, then.”

Initially, Chen Heng wanted to chat in the chat group. Unexpectedly, Shining sought him out.

“He Who Knows Fate, do you have any secret medicine for treating amnesia?”

“Erm…I say, Shining, are you misunderstanding something about me? I’m not a god; I can’t possibly have every medicine in the world. This medicine is for Nightingale?”

“Yes. However, now that I think about it, not having those memories might be good. After all, those are not good memories.” Although Shining failed to obtain medicine to treat amnesia from Chen Heng, she felt it might be a good thing on second thought.

“I didn’t say I don’t have it. I only said I don’t have every medicine in the world.”
