Of all the soldiers present, only He Xingjue's mech was equipped with a healing pod, a fact known to all of them. Therefore, when Shi Chuan said that Li Ze was injured and urgently needed a healing pod, they instinctively said to He Xingjue, "Commander, leave the Void Beast to us, please quickly send a healing pod to Madam."
He Xingjue frowned. Li Ze's health is so poor, why is he here to join in the fun today!
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, He Xingjue had no choice but to send over the treatment pod.
He Xingjue did not intend to let Li Ze into his mecha, but instead carried the treatment pod out of the mecha.
At this moment, Li Ze lay flat on the ground. The bloodstains on his face and around his ears had been wiped clean by Lan Shuang, but the scattered, red plum blossom-like bloodstains on his clothes were still vivid and conspicuous. Compared to the intense bloodstains, his pale face looked even whiter, like that of a dead man.
Is he still alive?
He Xing's feelings were complicated. Could it be that he had really become a widow at such a young age?
"Don't just stand there, hurry up!" Ishikawa urged.
He Xingjue glanced at him sideways and placed the treatment pod on the ground.
Ishikawa didn't receive a glare from He Xingjue. He was busy opening the treatment pod and urging, "Hurry up and pick up Madam and put her in the treatment pod."
He Xingjue's aura grew even colder, but he didn't move.
"What are you doing? This is your partner. If you don't hug him, who will?" Ishikawa's tone carried a hint of anger.
Zhou Yang and Lan Shuang exchanged a glance. Just as they were about to suggest that he do it, they saw He Xingjue bend down, come over, and pick up Li Ze from the ground.
The moment he embraced Li Ze, Li Ze grabbed He Xingjue's arm. Unseen by the naked eye, the dense malevolent energy emanating from He Xingjue flowed into Li Ze's body through his hand.
He Xingjue frowned, looked down at his hand that had been grabbed, and asked coldly, "Awake?"
No one answered.
He Xingjue's expression turned even colder as he roughly placed Li Ze into the treatment chamber.
"Let go!" He Xingjue roared.
However, Li Ze's eyes remained closed, and he showed no reaction whatsoever.
Just as Ishikawa was about to close the treatment pod door, he noticed that Li Ze was tightly gripping He Xingjue's wrist. A wave of sorrow washed over him.
Young Master Li Ze has fallen for their commander.
However, he was destined to be heartbroken; their commander had no heart and would probably never love anyone in his life.
“Commander, the lady is reluctant to part with you,” Ishikawa said earnestly.
To everyone's surprise, He Xingjue's face immediately darkened when Ishikawa said that, "You are not allowed to call him 'Madam'."
As soon as he finished speaking, He Xingjue forcefully swung his hand, and with a thud, Li Ze's hand slammed onto the treatment pod, his pale wrist visibly swelling and turning red.
"Oh—" Lan Shuang was heartbroken and mustered her courage to complain, "Couldn't you be a little gentler!"
He Xingjue felt even more agitated as he looked at the splash of red. He half-squatted down and used his other hand to pry Li Ze's wrist off.
I can't break it!
He Xingjue was somewhat surprised, his brows furrowing even deeper. In a fit of anger, he increased the force. Immediately afterwards, with a crisp crack, Li Ze's slender, jade-like index finger was broken off.
Perhaps it was in pain, for Li Ze's hand finally loosened and slid into the treatment chamber.
The atmosphere at the scene became stagnant.
Lan Shuang glared angrily at He Xingjue.
Zhou Yang also cast a condemning glance at He Xingjue.
Ishikawa looked utterly incredulous and disappointed. "You actually broke Young Master Li Ze's finger!"
He Xingjue: "......."
He didn't know he was so fragile.
"Zhou Yang, shall we take Li Ze to the hospital ourselves?" Lan Shuang asked, her voice trembling with tears. Li Ze was so pitiful; if he stayed here any longer, who knew what even worse things Commander He might do to him.
Zhou Yang nodded. "Come with me into the mech, and we'll fly there."
So Zhou Yang and Lan Shuang entered the mecha. Then, the mecha picked up the treatment pod on the ground and walked step by step towards the outside of the competition venue. After leaving the venue, it soared into the sky and flew towards the best hospital on Zhuque Star.
Ishikawa let Lan Shuang and Zhou Yang take the person away, because he knew that Li Ze would receive better care in their hands.
“Once Young Master Li Ze wakes up, I will persuade him to divorce you,” Ishikawa said, looking at his respected and admired commander with a complicated expression. “Because you are not a good partner.”
After saying that, Ishikawa walked away, leaving He Xingjue alone on the spot.
An explosion occurred at the mecha competition, and a Void Beast appeared on Suzaku Star. This incident quickly rose to the top of the Star Network's trending searches in less than an hour.
In addition to the text, there were also dozens of videos taken by audience members at the scene.
"This is what hell on earth looks like, isn't it?"
"The scene was so bloody and cruel that even I, a grown man, couldn't bear to look at it directly."
"Has the casualty count been released yet?"
"Tens of thousands are inevitable. The shelling alone killed many people. Fortunately, it was the weakest bomb. Otherwise, the entire stadium would have been razed to the ground."
"It seems that martial law will be in effect on Vermilion Bird Star for the next few days."
"Tonight, hundreds of thousands of families will stay up all night to mourn the deceased."
"Only now do I realize how pale and powerless language is."
Netizens were heavy-hearted and fell silent.
"Let's talk about something else, like that black mech. Have you guys seen its combat videos?"
"I saw it, and I give it a thumbs up! What an awesome mech! It saved so many people. Does anyone know who's inside the mech?"
"Same question, he's so handsome! I want to become his apprentice."
"Watch those dozens of videos, and you'll have your answer."
"Hey upstairs, stop keeping me in suspense, which video is it?"
"Not only will you find the answer, but you'll also find a surprise. Go see for yourself."
"......."
Netizens' curiosity was piqued, and they flocked to watch the videos. Each video was a few minutes long, and after watching dozens, an hour or two had passed.
It was late at night, but netizens were still filled with righteous indignation and couldn't sleep at all.
"Breaking his seriously injured partner's fingers!!! Is this something a human being would do??? I hereby declare that from this day forward, I am no longer a fan of Commander He."
"What a ruthless man!"
"After being thoroughly investigated by the entire internet, he's definitely a scumbag."
"Let them get a divorce. I support them getting a divorce tomorrow!"
"Before the divorce, let's first convict him of intentional assault!"
"........"
Netizens vehemently criticized He Xing, almost spitting at him.
"So, the person piloting the black mecha is Li Ze?"
"How could it be fake? The video is proof."
"Is Li Ze not an ordinary person, and does he suffer from a genetic disease? How can he control a mecha when he's on his deathbed?"
"Ask the same question."
"......."
Not only were netizens puzzled, but He Xingjue, Shi Chuan, and others who watched the video also looked confused.
Ishikawa: "Commander, when did the lady become so powerful?"
He Xingjue gave him a cold glare. "Do you think I would know?"
Ishikawa: "......"
Okay, you've asked the wrong person.
