Chapter 66

Chapter 66

Yunjiu's attention was always on the doctor in front of him.

It’s not that there are no doctors in Area 49, but no doctor can treat such serious injuries like the female insect in front of him... The broken bones can be reconnected, and it seems that she can fully recover.

This is unbelievable.

He knew a doctor who could set broken bones, but he couldn't guarantee full recovery after the bones were set, and the movements of this female insect who called herself a "doctor" were different from anything he had seen before.

If Yun Jiu had seen what a real doctor in the outside world looked like, he would know why it was different from what he remembered - the technique of the one in front of him was too professional and standard.

Although Yun Jiu tried hard to conceal his gaze, in Qi Heng's eyes it was no different from staring at him openly.

"Here." Qi Heng handed two tin-wrapped anti-inflammatory pills to Yun Jiu. As long as the wound did not become inflamed, there would be no complications, so it was necessary to keep two anti-inflammatory pills.

"Feed him in six hours."

Yun Jiu looked at the medicine in his hand. He knew that it was wrapped with white granules. The "doctor" had just opened it and fed it to Xie Xingyue.

After hearing his words, Yun Jiu hesitated for a moment and said, "Six hours, how long is that?"

The Tianjia Zerg on Tianyun Star rise and fall at sunrise and sunset. Their concept of time is completely based on the rising and setting of the sun every day, and they have no concept of the division of time itself.

After all, the time calendar is something only a "civilization" can possess, so it's not surprising that the Tianjia Zerg, who destroyed the main civilization, don't know about it.

Qi Heng certainly knew this, but he was currently playing the role of a 'doctor' in the 'Gray Mist' organization, who had just arrived on Tianyun Star and had not yet come into contact with the Tianjia Zerg on Tianyun Star, so he should not be aware of this.

He was using his mental illusions to give hints to the surrounding Zerg. With a blank expression on his face, he glanced at one of the remaining mining worms nearby and said, "Someone will come to remind you."

Mental suggestion is very useful, and the illusion created by combining it with the mental power covering the entire body can achieve an effect that is so realistic that the fake is indistinguishable from the real thing. The only difficult thing is that the personality he designed for the fake identity is completely different from his own.

Qi Heng just hoped it wouldn't happen again. This one fake identity was already difficult enough. He didn't have the ability to clone himself, so if he added one or two more fake identities, it would be exposed sooner or later.

"Thank you..." Yun Jiu obviously understood what the 'bug' he was referring to, and wanted to ask something else, but in the end he didn't ask.

To be honest, the current situation seems a bit weird. The strange female insects that are incompatible with them and the insects they have never seen before are obeying the orders of the former. Yun Jiu doesn't think that the other party can command those weird insects because they are Zerg like them.

If that were the case, they would also be able to make those fat white dwarf insects obedient.

Thinking of the character he had created for the 'doctor', Qi Heng said "hmm" as a way of accepting the thanks. After A0 confirmed that the female insect's injuries were stable, he got up and left to treat other injured female insects.

After he left, the strange female insect who had been talking to them earlier sighed, "Your friend is so lucky. He was able to be rescued even though he was injured like this."

"In the past, such an injury would only lead to death."

Yun Jiu came back to his senses and agreed, "Yeah, our luck is really good this time."

Isn't it just good luck?

Usually, when a collapse accident occurs in a mine, even if you are lucky enough to be rescued, it will take several days. For the unlucky ones, there is no hope of being rescued after the first seven days of rescue, and they can only die alone in the dark mine.

But this time, not only were they rescued shortly after the mine disaster, but their injuries were also treated... If these words were to be spread out, I'm afraid no female insect would dare to believe them.

At this time, Yan Ning, who had been taking care of Xie Xingyue without saying a word, whispered something in Yun Jiu's ear, his tone a little conflicted.

"Brother Yunjiu, do you think he looks a lot like Brother Qi?"

"Qi Heng?" Yun Jiu subconsciously said the name.

"Um."

The darkness under the mine is almost the same as non-existent for female insects with the talent of night vision, especially for female insects like Yun Jiu who have long been accustomed to it. They can see things no differently than in the daytime.

Therefore, Yun Jiu saw clearly what the 'doctor' looked like just now.

Yun Jiu thought for a moment and said, "Do they look alike? Aside from their height, I can't tell anything else."

"I can't really put it into words, it just feels very similar to me." Yan Ning whispered, "...it's just that feeling that's different from us."

"Isn't it different? There are indeed some differences." Yun Jiu thought and said, "Is it possible that they know each other?"

No one can answer this question. The one who can give the answer is not here and the other is treating other female insects, so obviously he will not answer them.

[Master, they are very curious about you.]

A0 can run in multiple threads, providing different treatment options while also discussing some meaningless topics.

Yun Jiu was not the only one who was curious about Qi Heng. Nine out of ten people in the cave were secretly watching him, and the remaining one was probably unconscious.

"Let them be curious," he replied casually.

At the moment, Qi Heng had no other thoughts about the female insects he rescued. He just hoped that they could wait patiently for the mining insects' rescue operation to be over, and then cooperate with him to stay here for two days, and then arrange their whereabouts after everything was settled on the Falling Star Day.

You definitely can't put it back.

They had seen the mining bugs and themselves, and releasing them would risk leakage. Even if they didn't consider the present dangers, they should consider the possible dangers in the future. It's better to be safe than sorry. No matter how careful you are, you can never be too careful to increase the safety factor.

The rescue operation of the mining worms went very smoothly, and the rescue plan was completed even faster than the time limit calculated by A0.

According to the plan, some of the rescued miners were recalled. Even though they were not combative Zergs and had the lowest combat effectiveness among the original Zergs, they still carried out orders very faithfully.

They will guard the entrances and exits to other mines to prevent any female insects from escaping.

After confirming that there were no injured people requiring medical attention, Qi Heng walked to the center of the cave. He used some techniques to amplify his voice with the help of star power, allowing every female insect present to hear it.

"I know you are curious about who I am and why I saved you."

Qi Heng deliberately lowered his voice, and the tone of his voice was completely different from his real self.

His words caught the attention of the female insects, and all of them looked over, as if expecting his answer.

These two questions were what the female insects present wanted to know, but because the 'doctor' who saved them looked difficult to deal with, and those insects who saved them but were still eyeing them covetously looked wrong, no one dared to be the first insect to ask questions.

"You don't need to know who I am, just know that I'm 'Doctor'."

Qi Heng didn't explain that 'Doctor' was just a code name. He simply mentioned this and continued, "We rescued you because the noise from the mine collapse caught our attention."

"Based on the principle of mutual assistance established when the organization was founded, we cannot stand idly by and watch our compatriots suffering, so we decided to lend a helping hand to you." His voice was indifferent and it was difficult to hear any emotion in it.

The female insects present seemed to understand what was said, but they understood the next sentence that followed.

"We have an operation on Tianyun Star. We need you to stay here until the operation is completed and the objectives are achieved."

"Don't worry, it won't take too long."

Although the Tianjia Zerg living under the surveillance of the Ikal civilization are very backward in knowledge, it can be seen from the insects that rescued them that these insects can dig holes very quickly, which means that if the other party is willing, they can send them out now.

One reason why no female insect wanted to do anything was that they had seen the sharp teeth and claws of that group of insects. Who would have thought that these insects, which only looked cute on the outside, would be no different from mud in their mouths when it came to ores and rocks... They might win in a one-on-one fight, but would definitely lose in a one-on-many fight.

Another point is that the instinct to avoid danger engraved in their genes makes their brains frantically warn when facing the "doctor" - absolutely, absolutely do not provoke this female insect in front of them, the other party is very strong, very strong.

"Then, how long will it take us to leave here?" In the quiet environment, this somewhat weak voice was particularly obvious.

"About two days." Qi Heng answered without hesitation.

Well, he only said that they should stay here for two days, and he didn't tell them to return to Area 49 after two days. If the other party thought too much, it was their own misunderstanding.

Qi Heng glanced at the time displayed on the system panel and thought that the female insects coming to rescue from outside should be arriving soon.

Mining area, above-ground area.

Not long ago, the unicorns drove away all the female insects that had come out from other areas to "watch the fun". Not long after, they saw a group of female insects approaching the mining area from a distance.

Their target was clear: the area where the mine collapsed.

Regarding these female insects that came to rescue, the unicorns looked at each other and ignored them, and each returned to their own jurisdiction.

Every mining disaster has a seven-day rescue window, during which female Zerglings are allowed to rescue the female Zerglings below. This is a well-established rule; you can't deny these Zerglings even the hope of rescue; if you do, it will lead to riots.

Don't ask them how they know. The history of raising Tianjia Zerg on Tianyun Star is not short. Anything can happen in such a long time.

For example, the obsidian crystal veins on the Lanzhou continent were not the first to be mined, and the gathering places would also change with the handover of the supervising civilization. For example, the destruction and rebirth of the Tianjia Zerg gathering place was just a recurring drama on Tianyun Star.

The Tianjia Zerg, wrapped in illusions and lies, would not know all this, let alone that their race is constantly cycling in this short artificially set 'reincarnation'.

Perhaps some Zerg will accidentally discover that something is wrong in their lives and try to think of another way, but in the end they will still not be able to escape the cycle of reincarnation and can only become a failure in the history of Tianyun Star after it became a breeding star.

Underground mining area.

[Master, the female insects on the ground have begun the rescue.]

A0's scanning function was running, reporting: "Among the female insects that came to rescue, there were no Yan, Mo Nan, and the others you asked me to pay attention to. They did not come."

This was different from the deduction in [Between Time]. It seemed that what he had said to Yan earlier had given him a lot of stimulation. If they didn't show up, it must be that Yan took action after he left.

Qi Heng walked towards the passage leading to the dead egg pit. It was time to go to the fat worm to prepare for the next step.

He did not relax his attention to the safety in the cave and directly arranged 400 mining bugs to guard around the cave.

With the number of mining bugs outnumbering the female bugs by a hundred, he believed they could complete the task well - as long as the female bugs did not unite to cause trouble for him.

This time the mine collapsed on a wide scale, and the number of suffering female insects was far more than the ones he rescued... Considering that some of the female insects were trapped close to the mine entrance, which was a position that was easy to rescue, he made a straightforward decision to leave those female insects to the female insects coming to rescue from the ground.

This was the most appropriate solution he could come up with. It could reduce casualties and find some helpers for Yan and the others to reduce their future burdens without causing too much trouble for himself.

After Qi Heng left, some whispers began to be heard in the originally quiet cave, but soon it became quiet again.
