Navia, who comes from a mafia-like organization like the Thorn Rose Society, is theoretically a full-fledged underworld heiress, the kind who would readily take advantage of others (I'm sure of it).
If I deliberately provoke her like this, Navia, that thorny rose, will definitely lose her temper.
"I'm not a hothouse flower!" Navia frowned, her voice revealing a hint of dissatisfaction.
She carried her parasol, the bright yellow Eye of God on her shoulder gleaming as if in a show of defiance.
“Indeed… Navia possesses the Eye of God. If Mr. Kares’ spirit in heaven knew, he would probably be very pleased.” Marcellus directly flattered the former.
Of course, he felt even more jealous and angry towards the daughter of that old dog, Carles.
Although Marcel was not obsessed with the Eye of God, but only with his lover Vinier, as an adventurer, how could he not envy such a treasure that could make a person completely different from the past?
But in the past, with Vinnie by his side, he didn't care about such things.
Now, Winnie has dissolved into the water. What Marcellus pursued was technology, but in a sense, what he sought was also 'power'.
At times, he would wonder—if he possessed godlike power, would everything be different?
Such a simple delusion is just a fleeting thought, but when placed on a person who is already distorted, it can only fester and become more and more serious.
Especially when she saw the person who was so annoying and difficult to get along with 'showing off' that power, Marcel, who was just an ordinary person, was driven mad with jealousy.
But then he smiled with relief.
What good is the Eye of God?
Even with the Eye of God, that annoying old dog's daughter will still die!
Thinking of this, Marcellus became excited.
But the next moment, Navia seemed to remember something and said:
"Oh, right...we have another companion."
"...?!" Upon hearing this, the excited Marcel's expression turned serious.
Since it concerned his densely packed base, every additional person added would increase the risk. He instinctively wanted to understand the situation, and Navia, as if knowing his concerns, explained:
"A friend recommended it to me. He said they are very professional in exploration and infiltration, and are true experts."
"Look, he's here."
Marcel nervously followed Navia's gaze and saw a blond, somewhat unremarkable man wearing overalls. Of course, it's worth mentioning that his eyes and brows exuded a sense of 'compassion,' as if he were saying, "I'm a good person."
He subconsciously scrutinized the newcomer, but didn't discern much about the person.
The muscles seem quite firm, indicating decent combat ability; at least the type that's well-trained. I didn't see the Eye of God... that's just cannon fodder.
And this person's harmless appearance suggests that he really is just an ordinary person.
As if encountering a close friend, Marcellus instantly relaxed after determining that the opponent did not possess much fighting power.
Upon seeing the group of people present, the newcomer broke into a bright smile—
"Ah, beautiful ladies and handsome gentlemen, Virgil, at your service."

Arknights, the Fourth Disaster: I Want to See Operators Go Crazy About Me
Female Ark
"I'm going head-to-head with players, is that for real?"
Being on the ark, powerless and vulnerable to being overwhelmed by infected individuals, is a foregone conclusion.
Fortunately, Jiang Nuo has a forum, and the higher the popularity, the more you can gain from it.
He cleaned up Exusiai's mess, helped Texas resolve past issues, spent time in jail at the Guard Bureau, and even talked to Wei Yanwu about whether Lungmen was too urbanized...
But why does my public image seem a little off?
"Your Jerusalem," "The only character whose resources just pop up in your face without you needing to search," "The episode with the most 'Starry Sky' vibe," "I want to see him break through the defenses of various operators and then get counter-killed," "The boss of Penguin Logistics, you're the real emperor," "He's a must-have for defeat CGs," "A multiplayer party is meaningless without him," "He has more resources than all the operators combined."
Jiang Nuo could only fall silent.
exist?
Why are all the operators acting crazy towards me?!
.......
Please clearly state the reasons why all organizations in Terra united, and explain why it was Jiang Nuo (10 points).
Chapter 250 Are you alright? (Trying not to laugh)
Looking at Navia, who was dressed in a Western-style dress and as beautiful as a rose, Virgil felt a little intimidated—for people engaged in certain shady professions, the name of the Rose Society was no less intimidating than that of Fontaine.
It could even be said that the Rose, who adheres to the principle of using violence to control violence and has a gangster-like nature, would be much more ruthless in dealing with criminals.
If you were to appear at the Opiclie Opera, you could survive no matter how heinous your crimes. After all, while Fontaine does have the death penalty, it has been largely a formality for many years, with most people believing it's just there to scare people.
As long as you don't foolishly confront the dueling agent head-on, the worst that can happen is that you'll be sent to Mero Petersburg; there's absolutely no danger to your life.
But if they are targeted by the Rose Thorn Society, they don’t mind giving the bloodstained criminals the punishment they deserve and making them disappear without a trace.
Normally, Virgil would never have approached such a dangerous person. He was only involved in shady dealings and was no match for Navia, the current president of the Rose of Thorns Society. He practically offered himself up.
But this time, the profits really made Virgil a little restless.
According to the unidentified person who invited him, Les's secret is the place Navia and her companions are going to on this trip.
This was undoubtedly a tremendous temptation for Virgil, who was merely a trafficking gang.
After all, products like L'Oréal, which have the properties of "rock candy," are incredibly profitable in Fontainebleau, and everyone is scrambling to get their hands on them.
Unfortunately, the supply of L'Oréal was almost fixed, and for some reason, the guy who produced L'Oréal had drastically reduced production, which made life a bit tough for many L'Oréal dealers like Virgil.
He had already discovered through some information that the method of making Les might exist in a certain special site, but he never expected to run into this kind of thing.
Compared to the possibility of a method for making Les, the fact that Les is secretly known is naturally more appealing.
Without much thought, the greedy Mr. Virgil took the bait.
As for Navia—although he was somewhat timid, he didn't take the current president of the Rose Society too seriously.
After all, this woman looked like an easy-to-handle young girl.
Virgil, who prides himself on being a natural in the underworld and is considered the leader of a group, could not possibly be afraid of her.
If it were Carles, he would definitely stay as far away as possible.
His daughter... well, that's about it.
Seeing that Navia had no doubt about his title of 'expert', Virgil breathed a sigh of relief, while his eyes revealed a hint of mockery and contempt.
The president of the Rose Society is nothing special.
Of course—this was also thanks to the mysterious person who had contacted him, since his status as an expert was 'arranged' by that person.
However, as one of the members of the Humanoid Apes' Shining Time, expecting him to show any gratitude is definitely wishful thinking.
"Hello, hello, I have long heard of President Mather's name." Ignoring Navia, Virgil's gaze flickered and a glint of light flashed when it fell on Mather.
The Cabrière Merchant Guild is also a well-known force in the dark side of Fontaine, but their guild leader, who is none other than Marcel in front of him, is exceptionally clean. It is said that he was even on the charity list of the Steambird newspaper and is an absolute good man—but he doesn't care about that.
He's such a good person, but he loves to take advantage of good people the most!
Virgil felt a surge of pleasure whenever he saw those unsuspecting fools being tricked to death.
The young lady of the Rose Society, the president of the Cabrière Merchant Guild... Just thinking about his next target being these two prominent figures in Fontaine makes him somewhat impatient.
Moreover, these two people must have been carrying a lot of valuables, right?
Virgil, who had a 'good guy' look on his face, laughed out loud.
"Your smile looks so strange."
Ying looked at him with some confusion, while the fairy Airi took on the role of a mouth double.
"Ah? Cough... Haha, I'm looking forward to the upcoming exploration! After all, that's the place where Less was produced, and the price..." Virgil panicked a little when he realized that everyone's eyes were on him, but the next moment he calmly laughed loudly:
"There must be a lot of shady evidence hidden there. We must bring that depraved person to justice!"
At this moment, he spoke with righteous indignation, so upright that he seemed like a moral paragon published in the Steambird newspaper, determined to fight against all evil.
"Yes, yes."
Marcel agreed outwardly, but secretly he was somewhat annoyed with this guy named Virgil.
So you like to condemn me from a righteous standpoint... Hmph, whatever, this guy won't live much longer anyway.
The brief annoyance was quickly soothed by the thought that he would soon be able to deal with these idiots blocking his way.

According to the game's storyline, Vasher's research base—the research facility where Jacob and Rene once studied the waters of the Primordial Sea of the Dead—is located here, containing many remnants of equipment and data.
It was during their exploration of this place that Vacher and Vinier accidentally came into contact with the primordial spring of the Fetal Sea, which led to their separation. After being mocked by the somewhat absurd laws of Fontaine, Vacher, who became twisted and wanted to find her lover again, destroyed everything from her past and became the wicked Marcel.
Jacob's experimental notes gave him hope of finding Viner, but also led him further and further down the wrong path.
Just like Fontainebleau, when the scenes in the game are brought to life, their original scale is magnified countless times, making it difficult to find even though the Serlo Plains and Fontainebleau are so close.
