127. Nimotin's Fantasy Adventure (Two-in-One)
"Achoo—"
Nimotin suddenly sneezed loudly, the cold of the outside world quickly robbing her of body heat.
Even though she had many prosthetic implants and was an Alpha-tier 【Assassin】, a biological being is still vulnerable to the cold of nature.
She shrugged her shoulders quickly, shivering all over, and muttered:
"How much longer do we have to walk? If this continues, I'll turn into an ice sculpture..."
Compared to Nimotin's shivering, Yavanna's reaction was much calmer. As a 【Medium】 who often dealt with ghosts, she was accustomed to these eerie cold infiltrations, making her more resistant to the cold than others.
Supporting Nimotin with one hand, she rummaged through her waist pouch and took out a compressed biscuit:
"Captain Nimotin, if you're hungry, I have some food here."
Nimotin gratefully looked at the rookie she once considered a vase, tore open the compressed biscuit, and took a big bite.
Crunch!
Although chewing the hard compressed biscuit in the snow was both shabby and painful, with its rough texture not pleasant, and the coarse grains scratching her mouth, the feeling of her body gradually gaining energy made Nimotin incredibly grateful.
After three days in the outside world, Yavanna had cured her mental exhaustion.
This young lady was both attentive and obedient, a college student indeed, capable of many things, restoring Nimotin's dignity as a leader.
While chewing, she said:
"Thanks, young lady—but, wait, we've been wandering outside for two days, how do you still have food?"
"Oh, this."
Yavanna responded and explained:
"I almost starved to death when I was a child, so I'm particularly afraid of hunger. I always carry at least a month's worth of emergency food when I go out."
Nimotin raised an eyebrow:
"Huh? How could someone of your background almost starve to death? What did you go through as a child?"
Yavanna remained silent. Just as the atmosphere was about to become awkward, a sudden loud noise came from the wind and snow.
Thud, thud, thud, thud...
"Hey, the bureau's support has finally arrived."
Nimotin breathed a sigh of relief:
"We can finally leave this hellhole."
Yavanna looked up, seeing the red and green signal lights flashing. The propellers stirred up a storm, tearing through the blizzard, and the helicopter hovered steadily in midair.
Landing in such harsh conditions of the outside world is very dangerous, with the red and black sky obscuring visibility. The violent storm and snow sand could easily cause a crash if not careful.
The rotorcraft's loud roar cut through the night sky. Yavanna noticed it was a jet-black V-07 'Pelican' heavy transport helicopter, which clearly indicated that those arriving weren't just rescue personnel.
The helicopter dropped a tow rope, and a cold, low female voice came through the communicator:
"Nimotin, leader of the Law IV elite agents, Agent Yavanna, thank you for waiting."
