Chapter 634 Qi Le and Bai Lu
Without any interference, Sun Cheng performed the amputation surgery on Zhao Gang that morning.
Mr. Mo didn't have any anesthetic drugs, so he had to hold on throughout the entire operation. According to what had been agreed upon in advance, Zhao Gang froze the best truncation position, which greatly reduced the possibility of heavy bleeding.
Coupled with Mo Tiantian's healing skills, by the time his legs regained sensation, he could no longer feel the pain, but his original legs had also completely disappeared.
"The treatment system is really magical. It doesn't hurt at all." Zhao Gang watched the entire operation clearly. For a normal person, this is a cruel process. Even if he already knows that he is about to become disabled, he will still have emotional fluctuations when watching it completely disappear.
However, Zhao Gang's expression did not change at all from beginning to end, and he easily accepted all the possibilities that might come his way.
This reminded Zhou He of Zhuang Mingxu. He had a strong partner to support him, but the only person in front of him was his younger brother whose life or death was unknown. He had to hold on first before he could support his brother.
Both of them were injured, but they played different roles. Yet, there was no difference between them because they both had concerns.
It really proves the saying that a weak spot can also be the strongest armor.
"If you need anything, just tell us. You're welcome." Zhou He did not try to comfort her from the perspective of a bystander.
"Thank you," Zhao Gang said, looking around. Then Zhou He felt that the temperature around him seemed to have dropped by a few degrees. Knowing that he was using his supernatural powers to investigate the surrounding situation, Zhou He did not find it strange.
Not noticing any other supernatural fluctuations around him, Zhao Gang looked at Zhou He with an inquiring gaze.
Zhou He shook his head. He was also surprised. They had been at the Mountain God Base for a day and a night, and there had been no supernatural surveillance or investigation in the surrounding area, as if they were really defenseless against them.
Especially now that all of their injured, except Zhao Lei, have woken up, and Mo Tiantian did not accept any supplies to treat so many people, as if she was doing an extremely ordinary good deed.
Kindness that is shocking.
Zhao Gang wanted to say something, but when he noticed someone approaching, he shut up.
Then Sun Cheng and Grandpa Mo came over with several bowls that smelled strongly of herbs. They handed one of the bowls to Zhao Gang and said, "Drink a bowl of this blood-replenishing medicine that Grandpa made."
After Zhao Gang thanked them, he quickly drank a large bowl of wine. He saw the two men walking towards the other unconscious people. Zhou He followed closely behind them and watched the two men muttering to themselves while examining them.
"It's nothing serious. He's just weak due to excessive blood loss. He needs to be replenished slowly," said Mr. Mo to Zhou He after looking around.
"Thank you for your hard work," Zhou He looked at the pale-faced people and asked, "Old man, in their current condition, the nutrition they can supplement with their current diet is limited. I would like to ask you if there is a place in our base where we can hunt, so that I can get some mutant animals to supplement them?"
"We have to go outside the base." Grandpa Mo is a man of few words. Apart from checking and boiling medicine for them, he seldom talks. At this moment, his unwillingness to pay attention was written on his face. "Go ask Fang Tang for details."
Zhou He didn't mind his attitude. In his opinion, such vigilance, caution and alienation were normal.
After thanking them, he discussed with the few people who were there to decide who should go out and who should stay behind.
At the same time, a thousand meters away, in an ancient Taoist temple.
A few subtle knocking sounds came from underground, with a dull feeling. The white deer lying on the couch immediately opened its eyes, looked around, stood up and staggered, then slowly stood up, strode to the inner room with small steps, and knocked twice with its hooves as if inadvertently.
A moment later, the floor tiles opened and a handsome man jumped up from below.
"Are you hurt? I smell blood." The white deer hurried forward, raised its two front paws and placed them on his shoulders, stretching its pink nose to touch the man's face.
"It's just a minor injury," the man said, rolling up his trouser leg, revealing the hideous wound on his calf.
"How did this happen?" Bai Lu said, licking the wound with his tongue, and the man groaned.
"I cleaned it up," the man said.
After hearing what he said, the white deer raised its body and covered the man's leg with its hooves. The wound healed immediately at a speed visible to the naked eye. The pain caused by the growth of flesh made the man's teeth grind, and his eyes were full of cruelty.
After a while, the wounds on the man's body healed, and the white deer that had originally rested its hooves on him fell weakly on him. Fine beads of sweat could be seen between the short hair on its head, and it looked extremely weak.
"Are you okay?" The man picked up the white deer as usual and jumped down the passage under the bed with it.
"A little tired." Bai Lu's voice was filled with pain. She curled up in the man's arms, looking like she was still breastfeeding.
The narrow passage was only wide enough for one person to pass through. After a few minutes, the entire underground suddenly became clear, revealing a spacious circular basement.
There were circles of person-high vessels around, filled with some unknown liquid, which was colorless but had a distinctly viscous feel.
Walking through the passage, you can see that there is a naked human in each container. Some of them look no different from normal people, while others look somewhat similar to Zhao Gang.
In the middle of the basement, there is a half circle of unknown instruments. The display screen is constantly refreshing, and the slight buzzing sound proves that it is still working.
Next to the instrument were several single beds. The man placed the white deer on the bed closest to him and attached something similar to an electrode between its brows. After a few clicks on the operating table, a three-dimensional object similar to a crystal core appeared on the display.
As he transformed, the white deer's body seemed to be exposed to X-rays, and the skeletal shape appeared on the display screen. The difference was that the position of the head was obviously becoming rounder, especially the position of the mouth, which had retracted a lot.
It wasn't very obvious from the outside, but after the man took a screenshot and retrieved a row of comparison photos, it became strange.
"Has it started?" Bai Lu asked weakly when he saw that he hadn't spoken for a long time.
"...Yes," the man said softly, his fingers flying, displaying rows of formulas that were constantly calculating, and numbers appeared every few minutes.
"It will probably take about a month for it to completely transform. Have you figured out how to tell your subordinates when the time comes?" The man took off the electrode on the white deer's head and asked.
Bai Lu shook her head, closed her eyes listlessly and nestled in the man's arms.
"I don't know how long it will take to recover this time. Why don't you go to the Panshui base and tell them that you are in seclusion," the man suggested.
"I'll listen to you." Bai Lu had no intention of thinking for himself. After seeing him check the utensils to make sure they were all right, he asked, "Who hurt you?"
"The people from Yueban Bay" mentioned this man and the expression on his face became cold again.
"Why are you provoking them again?" Bai Lu's voice was filled with helplessness.
"They provoked me this time. They went to Panshui base to investigate and killed two of my S-level psychics who were about to be upgraded." The man said with deep heartache and regret, "You know how difficult it is to train an S-level psychic."
"Moreover, many of the next batch of high-level psychics in the Panshui base have already shown symptoms of zombieization. I haven't found a solution yet, so it cannot be used for the time being. I think it is too difficult to train them."
"There are almost two hundred people with awakened abilities in the past two months. Isn't that enough?" Bai Lu asked.
"In this world, it's always good for us to have more people. It would be great if we could have a high-level zombie-like psychic for us to study. Maybe we can unravel the reason why psychics become zombies, and then we can add a large number of people to our team," the man frowned.
"Isn't it a ban carried in our genes?" asked Bai Lu.
"Heh, bans." The man sneered, his eyes moving between the two of them, "Isn't breaking bans what humans love to do the most?"
Bai Lu didn't say anything this time. After a moment, the man suddenly laughed and said, "I seem to have forgotten someone."
"What?"
"An experimental subject that came to my doorstep," the man said as he carried the white deer back the way he came.
Just as I put the floor tiles in place, I heard a knock on the door.
"Who is it?" the man asked.
"Master Qi Le, is the Mountain God okay? The people at the Yuebanwan base want to meet it and express their gratitude in person." Tan Yun's voice came from outside.
Qi Le glanced at the still weak little deer in his arms and said, "Lord Mountain God is resting, tell them not to be polite."
Tan Yun was silent for a moment. "They said that there are some advanced weapons and equipment in the Yuebanwan base that we might need..."
Tan Yun's superpowers awakened earlier than Fang Tang's, and as she was older, she considered more things. When she heard Fang Tang's words, she immediately came to look for someone.
Thinking of the weapon that could kill two quasi-SS-level psychics, Qi Le raised his eyebrows and said, "Wait a moment."
He patted the white deer's head soothingly, put it back on the mat, carefully covered it with a thin blanket, then tidied his clothes and walked out.
The moment he opened the door, his face put on a gentle expression, "I'll go meet them."
"That's perfect. Their Captain Zhou knows that you are the one who set the skills and cooperation methods for the psychics in the base, and he is very interested. He said he has some questions about psychics and wants to ask you for advice," Tan Yun said respectfully.
"They are just some insignificant insights. I think we can learn more from our friends in Yueban Bay." Qi Le looked like he had no temper. "Then let's go over there now."
Tan Yun led the way and told Qi Le everything that had happened that day and night.
"Amputation surgery?" Qi Le frowned for a moment, then quickly recovered, with a worried look on his face, "Can such a major surgery be performed in this situation?"
"They brought a surgeon, and there is a person who performs the operation, but we have yet to see whether the operation was successful or not," said Tan Yun.
"Well..." Qi Le lowered his eyes, "Then let's go and take a look at the situation."
