Chapter 649: Missing Time
Having Taotao, who could enter and exit Lu Weiyi's space, helped them a lot. Although the child had a poor sense of direction and didn't recognize many things, after Zhuang Mingxu drew out the material storage points in the entire space, they only needed to tell him to take things from that area.
Communication became much easier, and it didn't take long to get all the preparations needed for Quzhu's surgery.
"Nowadays, there is no treatment and you can only rest after the operation," Wu Yue sighed, "I really didn't expect that such a small place would have so many unexpected situations."
"In today's world, there is no absolute safety." Zhuang Mingxu had already made all preparations by then.
"You've thought of it? Then why don't you..." There are two healing departments in their base. If one of them is assigned here, others will not have any objection, after all, the base is located here.
"If we bring one here, we'll become the target of other bases' covetousness, and we'll probably only face endless sneak attacks." Their strength is determined by their numbers, and they can't protect a high-level healing psychic.
"That's true," Wu Yue sighed as he helped move the equipment, "I wonder what the situation is like at the base? I went out yesterday and found that the hurricane outside was much smaller. The cold winter may be over."
This may be an opportunity or a greater challenge for them.
Both of them understood what this meant and were silent for a while. Finally, Wu Yue spoke first, "The captain's mental power coverage area has shrunk a lot recently, only a few hundred meters. Maybe this is a good thing."
"..."Zhuang Mingxu looked at the person who was still sleeping not far away and murmured, I hope so.
After Qu Zhu's examination, he underwent surgery on the same day, but Zhao Lei's condition remained complicated.
After a series of examinations, it was found that not only was his brain concussed by the energy, but even his internal organs were displaced.
"Then he will never wake up?" Zhao Gang was anxious.
"We are all surgeons. We are really good at treating these kinds of minor brain diseases. As for the displaced internal organs..." The attending doctor looked at Zhou He who was following him, "Have you been repaired by a healing psychic?"
"Yes, after the medical examination, the doctor said that he had some internal bleeding. There were no better conditions for examination, so they could only stop the bleeding first," said Sun Cheng.
"This is the crux of the problem. The displacement of internal organs caused a series of symptoms, but you used your supernatural powers to repair them, which forced the body to accept its current position. If we help to reposition them, it will cause secondary damage. There is a shortage of medical care and medicine now, so I don't recommend doing this."
"What impact will this have on him?" Zhao Gang responded quickly.
"What impact it will cause and what harm may occur can only be determined after the symptoms appear. After all, we cannot be sure to what extent the healing abilities can assist," the attending physician pointed to the film he had imagined, "After discussion, we feel that the main problem is with the brain."
"How should it be treated?" Zhao Gang looked at the attending physician hopefully.
The attending physician shook his head and said, "It's not a suitable profession."
"So is he going to stay unconscious like this?" Zhao Gang became agitated when he heard that there was no other way. His already ferocious face looked even more terrifying because of the anger.
"Calm down first." Zhou He pressed his shoulder and asked, "Do you have any treatment suggestions?"
Several doctors looked at each other and finally said, "We think the best way is to return to the base and ask more professional doctors there for a consultation. In addition, we have healing abilities here, so even if an unexpected situation occurs, there is a chance of recovery. We do not recommend any external interference at this time."
"Okay, I got it, thank you." Zhou He sent a few doctors away, and when he came back, he saw Zhao Gang staring at Zhao Lei in a daze.
"If only I hadn't met him..." He murmured dejectedly, his voice filled with regret and pain.
"Then he'll probably have to look for you for the rest of his life," Zhou He said, comfortingly, "Don't worry, it's not too bad that someone is still alive, right?"
"When I get back, I will apply to the higher authorities to set up a special expert group to consult with him. There is always hope."
Zhao Gang didn't speak for a long time. In this situation, he had no choice but to accept it.
As the team that went out to hunt zombies brought back the first batch of mutant wolf meat, it also meant that the cold winter was about to pass, and the animals that had been hiding for a winter were reviving again.
Their base is about to face a new turning point, but Lu Weiyi's mental power coverage range is still around two hundred meters.
Since he discovered that entering the illusion would consume Taotao's energy, Zhuang Mingxu only went in once and stayed for less than an hour.
In the illusion, Lu Weiyi was still alone. The scene was like a non-stop pantomime. He neither participated nor interfered, and became a complete bystander.
The autistic boy in the illusion has his own good friends. He can use his supernatural powers skillfully. He uses his abilities to gain a place in the team and becomes the strongest psychic in the entire Kyoto base, rather than a canary in the mouths of others.
He learned to kill zombies by himself, and even complete tasks alone. He was growing up little by little, and becoming more independent. Perhaps he didn't understand what that person said was so lively and enthusiastic, but he was listening carefully to his words before he died - learn from Mingxu and listen carefully to the psychiatrist's words.
Zhuang Mingxu stood beside Lu Weiyi, watching "Lu Weiyi" use his mental power to weave illusions for the layers of guards, and watched him pass through the heavily guarded dungeon and carry out the tortured and gloomy Lu Xi.
The young Lu Xi's eyes were filled with hatred that wanted to destroy everything. "Lu Weiyi" faced hundreds of people with special abilities calmly. He was not afraid and never retreated. He just whispered a comforting "Don't be afraid".
S-level mental power radiated from his body, instantly rebounding all attacks from the surrounding people. Various superpowers mixed together, and the explosion made the entire dungeon shaky. Fires ignited beside him. The young man kept walking, firmly carrying his brother and leaving the hell that seemed like it would never see the light of day.
The fearless strength brought warmth to Zhuang Mingxu's eyes. If illusions could shed tears, he felt that he would have already burst into tears.
Ever since he entered the illusion, watching the constantly growing "Lu Weiyi", he always had a sense of loss, as if he had missed something.
Now, looking at this figure that gradually overlapped with the one in his memory, he finally understood where that sense of loss came from—
He has not seen Lu Weiyi's growth!
At the end of the world, he looked very powerful, knowing everything around him. How could such a person be the one he carefully kept in a greenhouse?
This is the transformation that was brought about by Zhuang Mingxu's training year after year, and the growth that Lin Yimu was forced to achieve by death.
What he enjoyed was the Lu Weiyi who had already achieved the result, but...what about the process that he had never seen?
Those memories that he had once ignored seemed to appear in his mind in an instant.
At the end of the world, Lu Weiyi took him to watch a zombie movie. The man who would never speak on his own initiative a day ago talked to him about the zombies' weaknesses and attack methods.
Dean and Antonio, who would rescue strangers at the first moment, Lu Weiyi, who was familiar with various superpowers and told the disabled man that a person with healing powers would appear at the first moment...how could he know so much?
Having clearly allowed the Ji family to run wild for so many years, why did they completely draw a line with them at the end of the world? Zhuang Mingxu had never thought about these things before, but now that he thought about them, the change seemed so sudden and without any warning.
Zhuang Mingxu thought of Jiang Fu, whose fingers were chopped off by "Lu Weiyi" in the illusion before. The dowry jewelry that became Jiang Fu's space was taken back from Ji Jin by Lu Weiyi before the end of the world.
If...if all of this is combined with everything in the illusion, then it seems that all the inexplicable things that were once inexplicable have a source.
"What on earth is going on?" Zhuang Mingxu was awakened from the illusion, with tears in his eyes. He murmured silently, asking himself and the figure not far away from him.
"Dad? Why are you crying? Do you still want to see your father? Taotao can still take you in." Taotao, who had shrunk a little, looked only two years old. Zhuang Mingxu hugged his small body to his chest and felt confused and at a loss for the first time.
He seemed to understand something, but was unwilling to believe it. He really wanted to know what happened, but Taotao's body could no longer withstand his repeated entry.
"It's okay, Dad is just..." Zhuang Mingxu whispered, feeling a little sorry for the boy who was trying his best to grow up.
**
When the hurricane on the ground of the temporary base became small enough that the psychics no longer needed protection to walk, Zhuang Mingxu, Wu Yue and Zhou He met to discuss the next plan for their base.
"Contact with the base has not been restored yet," Wu Yue said, which was really unfriendly news for them.
"I sent the team that went out to hunt zombies to try over there, but they also couldn't contact the base. Moreover, the Anjiang base and the Jin Province base that are slightly closer couldn't be contacted either." Zhou He was silent for a moment, and after a long while he added, "I suspect we have completely lost contact with the base."
"What is uncertain now is whether it is only us who cannot communicate, or all bases, or the entire environment has problems again."
Zhuang Mingxu had been making preparations for both scenarios since the communication disappeared, but when he heard the exact news, his heart still sank.
"Do you think the base will send support? We haven't been able to be contacted since the beginning of spring. They should come and check on us, right?" Zhou He looked at the other two people.
"It should be possible without any accidents," Wu Yue replied.
"What's the meaning?"
"We are not safe this winter. Who can guarantee that it is safe outside? What's more, our base has been coveted by other bases before winter came," said Wu Yue.
Hearing him say this, Zhou He was disappointed for only a moment, and immediately began to ask for a solution, "So what should we do next?"
"Should we continue to stay here and wait for them to come to support us?"
"Or do you want to return to the base yourself?"
