Chapter 110 Chapter 110 Rescue "Your Highness, it's too dangerous up there...
The experimental building was dozens of stories high, and the top three floors were almost hit in the middle.
The building shook violently in the aftermath of the collision, and rubble and glass fragments fell from the sky like raindrops, hitting the ground with dense cracking sounds.
The cargo aircraft's fuselage was severely deformed, its wings were broken, and debris was scattered on and around the top of the laboratory building.
Flames gushed out from the cracks in the fuselage, flames shot up into the sky, thick smoke billowed, and dyed the night sky scarlet.
The heat wave hit me in the face, and the air was filled with the smell of burning and the pungent smell of burning metal.
When Xirui and Xiu Wen arrived at the scene, the scene before them made them hold their breath.
The intense flames reflected in their eyes seemed to set the whole world on fire.
Xirui's face instantly turned ashen, and he gritted his teeth and growled, "Fuck!"
Hoss stood aside, his brows furrowed, his face so solemn that water seemed to drip out of it.
He quickly calmed down and began to direct the actions of the First Legion:
"The first priority is to evacuate all researchers and residents from the lab building. The second priority is to quickly extinguish the fire and evacuate residents outside the facility!"
His voice was steady and powerful, with unquestionable majesty.
Fortunately, it is the middle of the night and there are not many people in the laboratory building. Most researchers and people are not at work.
Hoss couldn't let go of the worry at all. Ian, the prince's lord, was still inside, but the fire and the crumbling building were obviously extremely dangerous.
"Go up and rescue! The first team, follow me!" After saying this, Hoss caught a glimpse of a tall figure.
The figure spread its wings without hesitation and rushed to the top of the burning laboratory building like a flash of lightning.
Huos's heart suddenly sank, and he almost subconsciously shouted:
"Your Highness!"
There was surprise and anxiety in Hoss's voice. He quickly spread his wings and chased after it.
The wreckage of the aircraft was still burning, the building could collapse at any time, the fire on the top floor was extremely fierce, and the air was full of the risk of explosion.
Hoss chased after them quickly, shouting loudly, his voice sounding particularly anxious amid the firelight and smoke:
"Your Highness, it's too dangerous up there! It could explode at any moment! Who knows what's inside that aircraft? You can't go up there!"
However, the tall figure in front did not stop at all.
Hades' wings gleamed with cold silver light under the blazing fire, like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath, pointing straight to the sky.
He was extremely fast, his figure looming in the smoke and flames, like a fearless beast rushing towards the most dangerous battlefield.
Hoss gritted his teeth, accelerated suddenly, and finally blocked Hades in the next second.
His breathing was a little rapid, but his eyes were firm, and his tone was filled with fiery anxiety as he pleaded:
"Your Highness, please think twice! It's too dangerous up there. Let me go!"
Hades stopped, his face so gloomy that water seemed to drip out.
His eyes were as sharp as a knife, piercing straight at Huos, his voice was low and cold:
"Captain Hoth, the First Legion has never been cowardly or retreated on the battlefield."
"I fought alongside the First Legion, saving countless wounded soldiers, including you. Weren't those times dangerous?"
His voice gradually rose, with an irrefutable majesty:
"Why, now is my turn, do you want me to be a coward?"
The flames on the roof grew more intense, and the flames shot up into the sky, illuminating Hades' figure like the descending god of war.
The huge black wings behind him spread out in the firelight, as if symbolizing fearlessness and indomitable spirit.
His figure was as straight as a pine tree, his eyes as firm as iron, as if no matter how dangerous the road ahead was, he would not retreat at all.
——This is His Majesty the Emperor, to whom the First Legion is forever loyal.
However, Hoss's brows were furrowed, his eyes filled with worry and disapproval. He said anxiously:
"Your Highness, it's too dangerous up there! Let me go! You can't risk your life!"
Hearing this, half of the silver mask on Hades' face was illuminated by the firelight, reflecting a cold light.
He shook his head, his tone firm and hard:
"I will only do what I think is worthwhile. This is an order - get out of the way! Otherwise, don't blame me for taking action!"
Hoss opened his mouth and wanted to say something else, but seeing the unquestionable look in Hades's eyes, he could only grit his teeth and step back.
Hades ignored Hoss, flapped his wings, and rushed to the top floor of the laboratory building like an arrow.
In mid-air, Hoss's eyes quickly swept below.
The second wave of military aircraft was slowly descending, their hatches opening to reveal neatly stacked gas masks and fireproof outer covers.
The hot breath of the flames hit me in the face, and the air was filled with the smell of burning.
Without hesitation, Hoss swooped down quickly to put on all his equipment, grabbed a few sets of equipment, then turned around and led the members of the first team into the aircraft in the raging fire.
"Team 37, check!"
Hoss's voice was cold and decisive, echoing in the noisy environment.
Several female soldiers immediately stepped forward and began to check the equipment and supplies inside the aircraft with quick movements.
Their movements were quick and orderly, clearly a result of rigorous training.
Hoss did not stay on the aircraft for long, his eyes were already fixed on the laboratory on the top floor.
He spread his wings and soared into the sky like an arrow, heading straight towards the laboratory.
In the laboratory on the top floor,
The flames were like a dancing beast, devouring everything flammable.
The heat wave hit us in the face, and the air was filled with a strong smell of burning and pungent smoke.
The firelight reflected in Ian's inky eyes, which were filled with decisive calmness.
The fire had spread, the flames licking the walls and making crackling sounds.
Ian knew that the most deadly thing in a fire is often not the flames themselves, but the thick smoke.
Inhaling too much smoke can cause suffocation, so he must find a safe escape route as soon as possible.
He grabbed Lingni's collar and rushed into the bathroom quickly, turning on the faucet and water gushed out.
Grab two towels, soak them in water, wring them out, and then cover your mouth and nose tightly with one of them.
He pressed the other towel on Lingni's face without hesitation.
Lingni was caught off guard by the sudden action.
Lingni: No, you just made a hole in my wrist, and now you want to save me?
Ian ignored Lingni's doubts. His black eyes looked particularly deep in the firelight, like the darkest ink. The more dangerous the situation, the calmer he became.
His voice was short: "Let's go."
Before he finished speaking, he had already grabbed Lingni's collar and quickly climbed over the window, moving towards the side where the fire was smaller. They were almost hanging outside the window.
Lingni's right wrist was already injured, making it difficult for him to move. In addition, he was tied up, and his entire body was almost dragged forward by Ian, like a big sandbag.
Lingni couldn't help but feel some complicated emotions in his heart.
He looked at Ian's calm and resolute profile, and suddenly felt a genuine admiration in his heart.
I really don’t know what to say. This guy can be so calm in such a life-and-death situation, and even doesn’t forget to bring his “enemy” with him.
Ian's sense of morality is now incredibly strong, he is simply a 100% good person.
However, thinking about how Ian shot a bullet through his wrist without blinking, Lingni's mood became complicated again.
Tsk, it seems that this cannot be said.
Flames roared behind them and thick smoke almost obscured their vision.
Ian moved without hesitation and stepped directly out of the window, dragging Lingni with him, although the pain in his wrist made him frown.
"Sir Ian,"
Lingni finally couldn't help but speak, his voice a little hoarse.
"Why did you save me? Aren't we enemies?"
Ian didn't look back, his voice remained calm:
"First, you're still useful. Second, if the time comes to kick you out, I will kick you out."
Lingni was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly.
It's really a contradictory existence.
He said no more and let Ian drag him.
At this moment, he suddenly felt that it didn't matter whether he died or lived.
There doesn't seem to be much difference.
At this critical moment, a deafening roar suddenly came from outside:
"Get out of the way, the aircraft is about to explode!!!"
Ian's pupils suddenly contracted and his expression instantly became solemn.
He quickly lowered his head to look downwards, only to see that the huge cargo aircraft had been completely engulfed in flames. The fuselage made a harsh metallic twisting sound, flames shot up into the sky, and thick smoke billowed.
Several female soldiers were fleeing from the aircraft in panic, obviously realizing that danger was imminent.
However,
It's too late.
The next second,
A deafening explosion suddenly sounded, as if the whole world was torn apart at this moment.
A huge shock wave swept over, flames and debris flew everywhere, and the air was filled with hot air waves.
Ian's body instinctively tensed, preparing for the coming impact.
However,
In this split second, a cold light suddenly flashed in his sight - it was a pair of extremely sharp wings, cutting through the air like a knife, rushing towards him with unparalleled momentum.
Then,
Ian felt himself being suddenly tackled by a tall figure.
The man's movements were swift and decisive, with an irresistible force.
Ian's body was firmly protected, and the scorching air waves and flying debris were blocked outside by the wings.
A cold and sharp pheromone filled the air, bringing with it a heart-pounding sense of oppression.
Ian's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and a name flashed through his mind - Hades!
It's Hades!
He actually rushed over at such a dangerous moment and protected him without hesitation.
Ian's breathing became a little rapid. He looked through the gaps between Hades' wings and saw flames rising into the sky outside. The aftermath of the explosion was still raging.
However, his body was firmly protected by Hades, as if isolated from all dangers from the outside world.
Hades's breath was steady, and his voice rang deep and powerful in Ian's ears:
"Master, don't be afraid, I will take you away."
Ian's heart trembled slightly. He didn't say anything, but just nodded silently.
At this moment, Hoss also flew up. Without hesitation, he reached out and grabbed Lingni, whose hair was burnt, and said to Hades and the others:
"Your Highness, let's go!"
"good."
Hades' wings vibrated slightly, deflecting the flying flames and debris.
His figure appeared extremely tall in the firelight, like an unshakable mountain.
Ian's gaze fell on his profile. The half silver mask gleamed coldly in the firelight, as if symbolizing fearlessness and perseverance.
At the moment when the aftermath of the explosion had not yet completely dissipated, the top three floors of the laboratory building seemed to be suddenly torn apart by an invisible force, emitting a teeth-grinding sound of metal twisting and a roar of concrete cracking.
The entire building was shaking violently and was about to collapse. A dying beast was making its final wail.
Then,
The top three floors suddenly broke off completely from the floors below, as if a landslide had occurred.
The steel skeleton twisted and deformed under the huge impact, the concrete walls cracked like fragile pieces of paper, and countless construction waste fell from great heights, hitting the ground with destructive force.
"boom--!!!"
The wreckage of the three-story building hit the ground with a deafening bang.
The ground shook violently at the moment of impact, like an earthquake. The huge impact force created a bottomless pit on the ground. The surrounding buildings also shook in the vibration, and the glass shattered and fragments fell like raindrops.
The wreckage of the laboratory building was completely shattered in the impact, and steel, concrete, and glass fragments were scattered everywhere, as if a catastrophic storm had swept through.
The fire upstairs had not been put out yet and thick smoke was rising.
"Your Highness! Commander of the Legion!"
The First Legion below was surprised to see Hades and his men coming down.
Hades's arm firmly wrapped around Ian's shoulders, and his huge wings drew cold arcs in the air, as if countless sharp blades were flashing in the firelight.
He and Hoss's figures were like a flash of lightning, quickly descending from the sky, and finally standing steadily on the safe ground.
Hades' wings slowly folded up, like the most sophisticated skeletal device, and were neatly retracted into the wing sac on his back.
"My Lord, are you injured anywhere?"
As soon as Ian's feet touched the ground, he couldn't help coughing twice, and the burning sensation of smoke still lingered in his throat.
Hades reached out almost subconsciously and gently wiped the dust off Ian's face with his fingertips.
His movements were natural and gentle, as if it were a normal instinct.
Ian smiled with bright eyes, exhaled, and turned to look at the laboratory building that was still burning fiercely.
The firelight reflected on Ian's handsome and three-dimensional profile, and his eyes seemed to be thinking about something.
After a moment, Ian spoke in a low, hoarse voice:
"Heddis, I'm fine, but this matter absolutely cannot be let go. The Count was responsible. We need to interrogate Lingni to find out who it was."
Hades frowned slightly, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes:
"...It seems their reach is longer than we thought."
Ian nodded, his eyes still fixed on the burning laboratory building.
His voice was calm and firm:
"Lingni is the key, he should know a lot."
"That's the sub-female that Captain Hoss rescued."
Hades's eyes moved slightly, and then he nodded.
"Okay, don't worry, my lord. We will definitely get to the bottom of this matter."
"Heddes!"
Ian's voice suddenly rose, with a hint of surprise and panic.
He lowered his eyes and stared at Hades' back, his pupils suddenly contracted, as if he had seen something unbelievable.
"There's blood behind you!"
In the chaos just now, Ian had not yet fully reacted. Until this moment, he suddenly realized
——That cold and sharp pheromone was not emitted from Hades' glands, but diffused from the most concentrated blood!
Ian's heart sank, and he quickly walked behind Hades.
The scene before him almost made him breathe - Hades' back had been blown into a bloody mess by the shock wave of the explosion, and his military uniform had been torn into pieces, sticking to the wound.
Blood flowed down his back, staining the torn cloth red.
Ian's voice trembled, but he suppressed his emotions: "Heddis, let's take care of the wound first, okay?"
Hades tilted his head slightly, even with a soothing tone, as if he wasn't the one injured at all:
"It's okay, Lord. It's just a minor injury. I have a strong recovery ability and it will heal quickly."
Ian: “…”
angina pectoris.
Ian quickly took off his coat and carefully draped it over Hades' shoulders, covering the large exposed wounds and trying to avoid touching his wounds.
The male insect's movements were gentle and quick, his eyes full of worry and self-blame.
"Go find the medical team,"
Ian's voice was anxious. He had never been so anxious even in the fire scene.
"Your wounds need to be treated immediately. They are both high-temperature burns and explosion injuries."
Hades nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you, Lord."
