"Hiss!" When Patriot spoke, all the Reunion Movement members present were instantly speechless.
"Captain!" Although their appearance had completely changed, at such close proximity, several Captains skilled in arts felt a wave of the same origin as Patriot and Frostnova from this strange creature above them. At this moment, they all believed that Patriot had not died but had transformed into another form.
After this incident, Reunion Movement's initial momentum, which had been like a tide, was easily reduced to negative by Kanna's roar and a single sentence.
The Doctor also understood that now was the best time for "negotiations" and immediately walked up to Ivan.
"I had a conversation with Miss Frostnova before, and I just had a brief chat with Captain. I know that most of you still in this ruined city are elite troops under the Captain's command and those who are dissatisfied with Reunion Movement's actions during this period, or rather, Talulah's recent actions."
At this point, the Doctor scanned the few Reunion Movement squad leaders remaining here, found no one objected, and continued,
"Rhodes Island is an organization dedicated to aiding the Infected, which is actually very similar to Reunion Movement. Therefore, we should not be enemies; we should be partners.
But why are we now at loggerheads… I believe you all have the answer in your hearts. This is because Reunion Movement's current actions are wrong.
Aside from providing your side with a tiny bit of a favorable environment for now, your actions have delivered a harsh blow to everyone who has been striving to promote peaceful coexistence between the Infected and non-Infected throughout Ursus and even Terra.
This will only escalate the hatred between both sides. In the end, unless the entire world becomes Infected, Reunion Movement's series of actions will only make ordinary people fear and dread the Infected even more, and all those in power will view the Infected as a ticking time bomb.
So, do I still need to tell you what Reunion Movement's ultimate fate will be? Will any country still be willing to accept the Infected as residents?"
The Doctor, well aware of how to exaggerate and amplify minor issues to influence others' judgment, slightly exaggerated Reunion Movement's current actions, causing a cold sweat to break out on the backs of those present.
Ivan exchanged glances with the others, then walked to a spot not far from the Doctor. "Leader of Rhodes Island, what do you wish for us to do?"
The Doctor's lips, hidden beneath the hood, curved into a faint smile. The other party's words clearly indicated they had softened.
"It's not about what I want you to do, but what you should do next!"
Talulah has gone astray, but Reunion Movement can be brought back. All you need to do is publicly issue a statement opposing Talulah's recent actions, declare yourselves an independent new Reunion Movement, and then, in Captain's name, rally those still under Talulah to abandon the darkness and embrace the light, shaking the morale of the Reunion Movement forces still in Chernobog.
Then, I hope you will send people to accompany us to Chernobog to bring Talulah under control. If that happens, all previous events can be attributed to Talulah's will as the leader, with the lower-ranking Reunion Movement members being unaware. Reunion Movement, whether it continues south to find a place to survive or returns to the northern plains, will, I believe, not face any obstruction.
Of course, if you are willing to join Rhodes Island, I welcome your addition on behalf of Rhodes Island."
The Doctor had already devised a plan last night on how to utilize this unit, which was at odds with Talulah, to enhance the success rate of the Chernobog decapitation operation.
After listening to the Doctor, the Reunion Movement members began to converse amongst themselves.
Although everyone was somewhat dissatisfied with Talulah's recent actions, it hadn't reached the point of outright opposition. Most were in a wait-and-see state, as everyone had witnessed her efforts and dedication to Reunion Movement over the many preceding years.
It could be said that without Talulah, the Reunion Movement unit would not exist. Therefore, at most, everyone thought that after this incident, Patriot and the other party would have an in-depth discussion to try and bring her back to the right path. (Monthly fee group 694, 936135)
However, the Doctor's intention was to directly cast aside Talulah, rebuild Reunion Movement, and then openly betray her, which made the people present somewhat uncomfortable.
For this, the Reunion Movement members discussed fiercely for a long time, and finally, Ivan conveyed their opinions to Rhodes Island.
The Reunion Movement members here would temporarily stay in the Ruined City, not participating in the confrontation between Rhodes Island and Talulah, and they would not openly oppose Talulah.
As a compromise, Shieldguard and Mudrock's squad would lead Rhodes Island past Reunion Movement's surveillance and deliver them into Chernobog.
The Reunion Movement members remaining here promised that if Rhodes Island won this battle and chose not to kill Talulah, they would all agree to join Rhodes Island. If Talulah unfortunately perished, they would inherit the name of Reunion Movement and continue southward, passing on this organization that speaks for the Infected.
After a brief discussion, the Doctor and Amiya agreed to the plan proposed by Reunion Movement. The others also had no objections.
After all, Reunion Movement had been in Ursus for so many years; if they could be so easily divided, they would have to wonder whether Ursus was too weak or if these people had ulterior motives.
Moreover, their conditions precisely indicated that these individuals were indeed striving to improve the lives of the Infected, rather than simply choosing the more advantageous side for their own benefit.
While they were meticulously planning the attack on Chernobog, Kanna was currently in front of Mudrock.
Earlier, she had seen this burly man in thick heavy armor wielding a large hammer. She secretly asked Frostnova, and upon learning from her that this "burly man" was named Mudrock, the corner of her mouth curved upwards.
She hopped to Mudrock's hammer and curiously observed her "massive" physique.
If one hadn't seen it with their own eyes, who would have thought that this seemingly reliable "burly man" concealed a curvaceous Sarkaz beauty inside?
Thinking of the breathtaking figure from the in-game skin, Kanna's eyes watered with drool as she looked at Mudrock… After being stared at by Kanna with such intense gaze for a long time, Mudrock felt uncomfortable all over, but dared not speak out, because she was one of the closest people to the central battlefield before, and had clearly heard Kanna's words to the people around her before she shouted. So she understood how terrifying this seemingly small cub in front of her actually was.
Kanna circled the other party and finally found a glass pane on her chest through which she could see outside. Moreover, to prevent anyone from seeing Mudrock's true appearance inside from the outside, this lens had undergone very fine polarizing treatment.
