Infinity, The Arcade Age-Chapter 326: Reuniting with the Protagonists

With a creak, the door opened. Thanks to the effect of the gold seal, Qin Ming had directly spawned inside the Natural Conservation Organization's branch. He walked straight into the command center.

Looking at the countless dinosaur surveillance feeds on the monitors and the busy staff, Qin Ming strode over to one of them and slapped the back of his chair.

"Contact Diplomat Hannah for me."

Hearing this, the man, who had been intently focused on his computer, quickly looked up at Qin Ming.

"Yes, Captain Hyena!"

Turning to make the call, the man's brows suddenly furrowed after a few moments.

"Captain Hyena, no one's picking up. I contacted nearby members, and they said Diplomat Hannah has already left with her team. Apparently, the biker gang is on the move again, hunting dinosaurs everywhere. Diplomat Hannah is leading a team to pursue them."

"Biker gang?"

Hearing this, Qin Ming's eyes narrowed. He quickly realized that the third stage of the storyline had already begun. Without hesitation, he turned and walked out.

"Give me the exact location! I'll go check it out!"

"Yes! According to the intel from local colleagues, they should be near Monument Valley right now!"

"Got it!"

As he spoke, Qin Ming had already stepped out the door. He pulled out a gong and struck it hard.

With a crisp sound, the clatter of hooves echoed as a black warhorse galloped over from the side.

Qin Ming mounted the horse, tugged the reins, and spurred it into a gallop, charging into the distance.

The Natural Conservation Organization, despite its name sounding like a civilian group, was actually a formal, large-scale military organization.

You could think of it as the National Guard for various towns, tasked with protecting urban safety.

While their combat capabilities might not match those of the poachers—desperate outlaws—their intelligence-gathering abilities were top-notch.

Otherwise, without the backing of resources and intel, how could Hannah and her team stand up to the massive poacher organization and hold their ground?

Now a member of this organization, Qin Ming quickly used its resources to pinpoint the location of the protagonist quartet.

As the warhorse galloped, Qin Ming, now at full speed, raced across the wilderness.

While pushing the horse to its limits, he frowned, pondering a question that had been bothering him since he entered this world.

There were still five adventurers this time, meaning there were four others besides him.

And since this mission world was a continuation of the storyline from when he left, the question arose: whose storyline was being continued? His, or the other four's?

If something special had happened in between—like someone romancing Hannah, or someone killing a boss or even a protagonist early—would the storyline change accordingly?

With five people having different experiences, whose story would take precedence?

Qin Ming's brows furrowed deeper the more he thought about it. After all, this was his first time re-entering a previous mission world to continue an unfinished adventure. He wasn't entirely sure about the current situation, which was why he was in such a hurry to find the protagonist group.

As long as he found them and confirmed their past experiences through their accounts, everything would become clear.

After galloping for two hours on his dim gold-quality warhorse, Qin Ming finally reached his destination before nightfall.

As he charged into the canyon, he immediately spotted the figures of his old friends.

The quartet—Hannah and her team—were in the middle of a fight!

To be precise, they were ramming people with their cars!

Four specially modified Cadillacs roared down the dilapidated road, mercilessly plowing through any obstacles or poachers in their path.

Beside the four Cadillacs, a large number of biker gang members on motorcycles were hurling various objects at the cars.

Molotov cocktails, rocks, throwing axes, knives—some were even throwing grenades or firing guns.

All sorts of projectiles slammed into the cars, sending sparks flying, but they couldn't stop the vehicles.

Hannah and her team drove wildly, swerving left and right, turning their cars into bumper cars and creating one crash scene after another.

As the saying goes, cars are metal wrapped around flesh, while motorcycles are flesh wrapped around metal. Chasing cars on motorcycles was downright suicidal.

Facing the relentless ramming of the four cars, the biker gang members were sent flying into the air, performing acrobatic stunts mid-flight.

Twisting into various shapes as they were flung off their bikes, they screamed and crashed into obstacles, the dull thuds sending shivers down anyone's spine.

Spotting this scene from afar, Qin Ming's eyes gleamed. He quickly drew his gun and summoned Kasamoto Eri, gesturing for her to take control of the warhorse. Meanwhile, he grabbed the energy machine gun mounted on the horse and began firing wildly into the crowd.

The deafening sound of gunfire echoed continuously. The biker gang, suddenly under attack, was thrown into chaos.

With Kasamoto Eri's assistance, Qin Ming, galloping at full speed, quickly caught up to the four cars and rode alongside them.

The four protagonists, quickly noticing the commotion, all reacted differently upon seeing Qin Ming.

While Hannah and the others showed joy on their faces, White Jack's expression darkened.

"Qin Ming?!"

"Long time no see, Hannah, my beauty! Did you miss me?"

Hearing their exclamations, Qin Ming grinned at them, then let go of the gun and suddenly leaped to the side.

His body slammed onto a motorcycle, uninvitedly sitting behind the rider.

Seeing the biker gang member turn around in terror, Qin Ming unceremoniously grabbed the man's neck and flung him off the bike.

"Sorry! Hijacking your ride!"

"Ah!!!"

Amidst the man's screams, the biker tumbled on the ground, rolling over a dozen times before coming to a stop.

Having dealt with the target, Qin Ming twisted the throttle, and the motorcycle shot forward with a whoosh.

In the blink of an eye, he had pushed the speed to its limit, unable to hold back a loud cheer.

As he passed another biker, he casually kicked out, sending both the rider and the bike flying.

Sparks flew as the bike crashed and exploded on the ground.

Qin Ming, leaping over the wreckage, continued to charge toward the next target.

Second biker—kick!

Third biker—kick again!

Fourth biker—well, this one couldn't be kicked. The biker, having noticed Qin Ming's approach, struck first. Before Qin Ming could lift his leg, the biker swung a metal rod, aiming for Qin Ming's head.

The rod struck Qin Ming's skull repeatedly, but against his newly upgraded S-rank skill, Steel Body, it couldn't penetrate his defense. The dull thuds echoed as the rod bounced off.

After taking several hits, Qin Ming finally reacted, desperately waving his arms to wrestle the rod away. When he realized he couldn't overpower the biker, he suddenly leaped off the motorcycle!

Then, to the astonishment of everyone watching, Qin Ming grabbed the handlebars and, running alongside the bike, lifted it high into the air!

Using the momentum, he swung the motorcycle and smashed it into the biker who had been hitting him with the rod.

With a loud crash, the biker was sent flying, his beloved bike turning into a fireball.

Having lost his ride, Qin Ming's speed dropped sharply, and he was quickly caught up by the pursuing crowd.

Turning to see a car speeding toward him from behind, Qin Ming's face lit up with joy. He slammed on the brakes, stopping his run just as the car passed by. In one swift motion, he grabbed the car door.

Then, he flipped into the car, kicked out the driver, and completed the hijacking—a seamless, fluid, and utterly cool move!

The only downside was that the person he had kicked out of the car wasn't a biker gang member but one of the protagonist quartet—White Jack...

"Jack!!!"

Seeing Jack crash through the car door, roll onto the road, and even get trampled by Kasamoto Eri's warhorse, the other three protagonists were stunned. Hannah quickly slowed down to rescue him.

Up ahead, Qin Ming, glancing in the rearview mirror and seeing Jack being helped up—still alive—clicked his tongue in frustration.

"Tough guy! Still alive after that? Should've thrown him in front of the car!"

Yanking the steering wheel, Qin Ming slammed into another motorcycle, pinning the biker between the car and the rock wall, effectively making a "meat sandwich." Seeing his revenge plan fail, Qin Ming could only vent his anger by killing more poachers.

About ten minutes later, after completely wiping out the biker gang, everyone finally stopped their cars.

As soon as the cars came to a halt, Jack, covered in injuries, kicked open the car door and stormed toward Qin Ming.

Yanking open the door and grabbing Qin Ming by the collar, Jack raised his fist, ready to strike.

"You son of a—!"

Jack's voice suddenly cut off.

Looking up at Qin Ming, who had slowly risen from the car, his massive shadow completely engulfing Jack, the man's eyes widened, and his mouth fell open.

Staring at Qin Ming's terrifying 2.3-meter frame and the bulging muscles from his blood-filled state, Jack, who was still holding onto Qin Ming's collar, was lifted off the ground, his legs dangling in the air. He was utterly dumbfounded.

This wasn't right! He remembered Qin Ming wasn't this big!

Wasn't he shorter than me? How did he get so huge in such a short time?!

Not only was Jack stunned, but the other three protagonists, who had gotten out of their cars to intervene, were also frozen in place.

Qin Ming, meanwhile, slowly looked down at Jack, his nemesis, and suddenly reached out to pat his head.

"What's the matter? Want to fight?"
