Chapter 94
Pei Zhao was not lying to Xiao Rui, they really needed some rest.
Whether it was Bai Zhou and Zhou Yuli who were the most seriously injured, or he, Lan Ji and Su Di, they were all injured to varying degrees. Fortunately, Miu Yi was a pendant and did not attack or get injured. At this time, everyone was seriously injured. Miu Yi secretly asked Pei Zhao if he could turn into a human to take care of them, but was rejected by Pei Zhao with a cold face.
"There might be surveillance here. You are our last hidden trump card. Hide it well."
I had no choice but to remain silent and pretend to be an idiot.
There is a makeshift first aid kit in the room. Bai Zhou and Zhou Yuli almost fell onto the sofa.
Lan Ji and Pei Zhao each applied medicine to a person.
In addition to abrasions and puncture wounds, Zhou Yuli also had several burns.
"...How to deal with burns? Should I use burn ointment?" He hesitated with mixed feelings. He knew about other scars, but as a college student, he had no experience with burns, especially burns of this degree!
On the other side, Lan Ji had already transformed his hand into an ice spike and stabbed it directly into the wound on Bai Zhou's body again.
"Hiss——" Pei Zhao only heard Bai Zhou's uncontrollable cry of pain. Pei Zhao's eyes widened: "What are you doing?"
He almost turned into a mirror whip and swung it at Lan Ji.
Lan Ji didn't even turn his head. His men pulled out the ice spikes decisively. With a focused and serious look, he said coldly, "Disinfect."
Pei Zhao: “…” He turned and looked at the scars on Zhou Yuli’s body.
Lan Ji is right. If the wound is caused by a monster, it should be disinfected, but...
Pei Zhao's palm turned into a lens with a sharp edge. If he were to cut along the wound, the secondary damage would definitely be very painful...
"Zhou Yuli..." Pei Zhao opened his mouth, but felt that no sound came out.
"Host!" Just as he was hesitating, a crisp voice sounded at the door. Pei Zhao turned around immediately. The door sensed the need and opened in response. Xiao Rui and a group of people in strange white clothes stood at the door.
"What is this?" Pei Zhao stood up and looked coldly at the person outside the door.
Xiao Rui didn't seem to notice the coldness in Pei Zhao's words, and introduced in a serious tone, "These are the medical staff specially prepared for our battlefield. They can help you deal with it..."
"No need." Pei Zhao said coldly, holding the lens in his palm more and more tightly, and soon a trace of bright red appeared. The injured Zhou Yuli's face was also pale, and it seemed that he had reached the limit of his patience.
"You can watch the whole process!"
Xiao Rui shouted loudly, staring straight into Pei Zhao's eyes. Finally, when Pei Zhao's expression relaxed, Xiao Rui breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hand, and led a group of medical staff out one after another.
"Deal with them two first!" Xiao Rui arranged calmly.
Immediately, two men in white coats walked to Bai Zhou and Zhou Yuli's rooms respectively, bent down, took out a syringe, and began to draw medicine.
"Wait," Pei Zhao frowned, "What is this?"
The men in white seemed unable to speak. In fact, their entire heads were wrapped in white cloth, and their heads looked like a giant football.
The man in white turned to Xiao Rui and did not speak, but Xiao Rui seemed to understand what they meant. After a moment, he nodded and relayed to Pei Zhao and the others, "What they mean is that this is a painkiller that can paralyze the nerves for a short period of time. It is very necessary for patients."
The two syringes had been filled with medicine and were less than half a foot away from his arms. Pei Zhao gritted his teeth.
"Let's spray the pesticide." Lan Ji said.
Pei Zhao looked at Lan Ji: "I'm worried..."
"They can't survive without pesticides." Lan Ji said lightly.
Bai Zhou is easy to deal with, as they can survive on the battlefield as long as they are not completely dead, but Zhou Yuli is different, after all, he is just a college student.
The pain can kill people.
Pei Zhao raised his eyes, and made up his mind, "Okay, fight."
As soon as he finished speaking, the needle tip pierced the skin and the medicine was injected into the body. Pei Zhaoren couldn't help but close his eyes.
The effect was immediate. Bai Zhou's cries of pain gradually became weaker, and Zhou Yuli's breathing also stabilized.
"...Why did their injuries suddenly become so serious?" Pei Zhao murmured to himself.
Xiao Rui explained, "The teleportation process actually speeds up the transfer. It may be that... the universe guessed based on your situation that they would suffer this degree of injury after you were safely teleported."
"Then why didn't this happen before?" Pei Zhao frowned in confusion.
"...Maybe it's because the stability of the universe has been destroyed recently." Xiaorui replied.
Pei Zhao lifted his eyelids and glanced at Xiao Rui. The girl lowered her eyes. It was hard to tell whether she was guilty or shy. It was definitely not fair. Pei Zhao thought for a moment and asked, "Xiao Rui, what does the stability of the universe have to do with?"
It seemed that this question touched upon the key point, and Xiao Rui's face turned red instantly.
"Host, the stability of the universe depends on many key factors, such as the problems of the world, the vibration of the universe quadrant, and even the population of each world is one of the key factors that affect the stability of the universe."
"Oh?" Pei Zhao raised his eyebrows. "It seems that you have looked up relevant information. So now, why is the stability of the universe destroyed?"
"I... don't know..." Xiao Rui said with difficulty.
"Xiao Rui, don't lie to me."
Pei Zhao had complicated feelings when facing Xiao Rui. On the one hand, Xiao Rui was his system after all, and it was not fake that they had traveled through so many worlds together. But on the other hand, what Xiao Rui is doing now clearly shows that he is purely taking advantage of them, and these systems must have some conspiracy.
Thinking of this, Pei Zhao sighed, "Forget it."
Xiao Rui seemed relieved as well: "Host, we just tried to detect the world you just went to, and found that the high-dimensional creatures that appeared there have left."
Pei Zhao was stunned: "Because of the earthquake?"
Xiaorui nodded: "This earthquake seems to be caused by the movement of the world itself."
Pei Zhao recalled what he had learned from his high school geography textbook: "So, the earthquake was entirely caused by their world itself?"
"Yes, host."
"What happened to the people in that world?"
Xiao Rui sighed, "By the time we detected it, there were only two humans left in the world. They were protected in the ice curtain barrier and became the only two survivors."
Pei Zhao was stunned: "Two humans, ice curtain..."
They are Zhou’s father and mother.
Pei Zhao looked at Zhou Yuli, who was lying on the sofa with his eyes closed, with a complicated expression, and didn't know what to say for a moment.
The only two elderly people left in the entire world were no children and no neighbors. All that was left was a post-disaster scene, the absurdity of being invaded by monsters.
Is this kind of life "survival" or...
Pei Zhao didn't have time to think about it, because soon, Xiao Rui spoke again.
"Host, we are tracking the high dimension in real time and have further discovered the next direction of their activity trajectory."
Pei Zhao nodded, not really caring, "Yeah."
"Their next destination is likely to be..."
"Where?"
“It’s your world.”
Pei Zhao's eyes widened, "What?"
"It's...your world."
Pei Zhao seemed to suddenly lose his hearing.
Everything around him became slow and long, and vague sounds from the outside world kept coming to him.
Your world.
The next world to be attacked is your world.
Pei Zhao slowly found his voice again.
"...That's impossible." But once he said it, he couldn't even refute it. No matter what Xiaorui's ultimate goal is, their current goal is the same, to stop those terrible high-dimensional gods, there is no reason to lie to him.
But, the next target is actually his world? !
Returning to his original world, he will have no supernatural powers.
Now, Bai Zhou and Zhou Yuli are seriously injured, and it will probably take some time for them to recover.
The only ones left are Lan Ji, Su Di and Miu Yi.
And Sudi... Pei Zhao had just had a fight with Sudi.
Sudi didn't even come back to the room with them, but went back to his own room.
Pei Zhao's mouth was somewhat bitter: "...About what time?"
"The predicted time is ten days from now."
Ten days.
They still have ten days to prepare.
In order to heal the wounds and mobilize people, it would be best to convince people to stay in their houses and avoid casualties as much as possible, but how to convince the public is also a big problem.
Pei Zhao only felt a headache.
"My head hurts." Pei Zhao held his forehead and his body fell to one side uncontrollably.
Xiao Rui quickly supported the person, "Host!"
Unexpectedly, as their hands just touched, a wooden vine came out from between them and separated Xiao Rui with a "snap".
Both of them were stunned for a moment. The moment they separated, the wooden vine instantly stopped moving and fell down.
At the same time, Pei Zhao subconsciously turned around to look at Zhou Yuli.
The effect of the medicine seemed to have worn off, and Zhou Yuli regained some consciousness. He was squinting his eyes, looking like he had just woken up.
"Zhou Yuli, are you awake?" All the men in white had retreated.
Xiao Rui had said what he needed to say, and seeing the two men's expressions, he tactfully retreated.
"Hmm..." Zhou Yuli's voice was a little hoarse, and Pei Zhao quickly poured some water and handed it to him.
"Why do you look like you're about to cry?" Zhou Yuli took the cup of water but his hand was empty. He could only smile and drank a few sips of water from Pei Zhao's hand.
Pei Zhao's eyes were red. He avoided eye contact with Zhou Yuli and whispered, "Xiao Rui just said that they have tracked the current state of the world. In your world, so far, there are only... two survivors left."
Zhou Yuli was silent for a moment, a confused look appeared on his face for a moment, and then he quickly returned to normal.
"It's okay." Pei Zhao heard Zhou Yuli say that, but there seemed to be something sparkling in his eyes, and his face was calm. He didn't even know if it was an illusion, but Pei Zhao actually felt that he was a little nonchalant.
"I've already said goodbye properly." Zhou Yuli lowered his eyes.
After all, they had no chance to go back. The places where those gods from higher dimensions passed through were in ruins, and they had to rush to the next world.
Even so...if possible, Zhou Yuli actually wanted to see them again.
No matter what his parents did, he could never completely sever their 18 years of care and love.
But Zhou Yuli knew clearly in his heart that perhaps this was the end. Being able to go back after becoming a puppet was already a back door opened by God for him.
He couldn't have hoped for more. Let’s stop having those unrealistic ideas.
