Chapter 98 Success
Lu Ming shook his head: "I don't want them to see me like this."
Exhausted and in such a mess.
She didn't want them to think that she was doing them a favor, although that was the truth, but she didn't want any of her teammates to be inferior to her because of her life-saving grace. She never did these things hoping for any reward, she just wanted to do it.
Just like Gu Chao, he never said how much he did, how hard it was, or how tired he was. He just did it, that's all.
Besides, her current condition is not very good. She can't even lift her hands. Something might go wrong.
Although she didn't say it clearly, Gu Chao understood her unspoken meaning. His heart ached and softened. He suppressed the sudden surge of emotions and looked at her deeply: "Don't worry."
Then he turned around and strode towards Cheng Ming's room.
Lu Ming looked at his tall back, let out a long breath, fell backwards, and entered the space.
As soon as Gu Chao entered the room, everyone in the Chaoyang team looked at him nervously.
He took a few steps to Cheng Ming's bedside and pressed a metal button on the white ball. The upper part of the ball clicked open. Then he placed the thing next to Cheng Ming, put on gloves, carefully took out the silver ball that was exposed inside, and placed it close to the scar on Cheng Ming's spine.
Others didn't dare to disturb him, holding their breath and stretching their necks.
Then they saw a very high-tech scene.
As soon as the silver ball touched Cheng Ming's wound, a circle of silver-blue light appeared around it. Some characters kept flashing in the light, and then the light instantly turned red. Then, the small ball suddenly disintegrated into a pool of liquid, gradually extending along the wound into a thumb-thick ring, circling Cheng Ming's body. The red light began to flicker, making a dripping sound.
Cheng Ming suddenly felt a chill on his back. His previously numb spine suddenly became itchy. A moment later, there was a sudden pain, which made him groan involuntarily and clutch the bed sheet under him with both hands.
The pain soon passed, and he was delighted to find that his legs were gradually regaining consciousness, but they were extremely numb and sore, as if they were being gnawed by thousands of ants.
The others watched helplessly as the silver ring gradually faded until it turned white, then the red light flickering around it turned back to blue. Then, with a beep, a gentle male voice rang out, "Repair successful. Your blood circulation health value is only 67%. It is recommended that you rest in bed for three days and walk at a steady pace for an hour each day. I wish you a speedy recovery!"
The light then disappeared, and the entire ring broke into two pieces with a "click" and fell onto the bed.
Everyone looked at Cheng Ming nervously and expectantly, and the meaning of their question was self-evident.
Cheng Ming tried to move his legs. Although they became numb as soon as he moved, there was no hindrance in his movements. He was completely normal now!
His eyes lit up, and he was unusually excited: "It's all right! It's really all right!"
Obviously, he was not as calm as he appeared, otherwise he would not have such an expression now.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Some of them immediately collapsed in their chairs, covered in cold sweats; others came to the bed, picked up the white ring curiously, and looked at it over and over again.
"Holy crap! This is too awesome! Our girl might be an alien!"
"It's also possible that her prop came from another civilization."
"Hey, Hangzi, take a quick look. Can you copy the chip or something? Then you don't have to buy it anymore."
Li Hangyuan took it and studied it for a long time before his face fell. "Where is the chip? It's just a solid ring. There's nothing inside."
"Huh? Tsk, this alien is really cunning."
"What's the use of this thing now?"
"I don't know, medical waste?"
Everyone studied it for a long time but couldn't figure out anything. Finally, they remembered Lu Ming.
"Eh? Where's the girl? Just ask her and you'll know."
"Yeah, how come the captain brought it?"
"Where is she?"
No one mentioned thank you, as they all knew that this was a bond of gratitude that could not be repaid with a simple thank you.
Gu Chao replied, "She is a little tired, so she is resting outside. I will go find her." As he said that, he walked out.
Lu Ming, who had rested for a while in the space, took a shower and changed clothes, was leaning on the sofa and waiting anxiously. When he looked up and saw Gu Chao coming out, he immediately sat up straight and looked at him nervously, like a primary school student waiting for the teacher to ask questions.
Gu Chao smiled softly and nodded at her: "He's fine."
Lu Ming finally felt relieved and let out an exaggerated long sigh. Then, her physical fatigue instantly came back and she lay down on the sofa, refusing to move anymore.
Then she remembered the value of the gold coins in the space that were cleaner than her face.
Okay, six hours of hard work and five minutes of use.
Although the money was well spent, she still felt heartbroken.
It turns out that I owed them money in my previous life!
Uh-oh-oh.
Gu Chao originally wanted to ask her about the ring, but it was obviously not a good time to chat because the hateful, familiar, loud siren sounded again.
There are zombies again!
Gu Chao and Lu Ming looked at each other and saw the seriousness in each other's eyes.
This is the scary thing about the zombie tide. You never know when it will end, and they often suddenly attack when you are most tired and least expect them to come.
I wonder how many there will be this time?
Except for Cheng Ming and Yan Song, everyone immediately rushed to their respective mission areas. Yan Song wanted to follow, but was strictly prohibited from doing so. Although his injury had healed, the blood he had lost could not be recovered. He had no choice but to stay in the villa and be taken care of by Dr. Wen.
Although they were starving, they had no time to eat. Before parting, Lu Ming gave them a bunch of mixed spring water in case of emergency.
Gu Chao and Lu Ming drove back to the South Gate and climbed up the city wall, but found that there were no zombies to the naked eye.
The scout's answer was - "The zombie horde is gathering in the distance!"
The two of them immediately understood: This might be the last wave!
At this time, outside the South Gate, the corpses that had been piled up like a mountain had been sprinkled with gasoline and burned by the guards using their fire power. Only a pile at the farthest end was left as a roadblock, and the rest turned into dust and crystals.
While waiting, Gu Chao estimated that among this wave of zombies, there might be the high-level zombies that Lu Ming mentioned. Just in case, he asked Lu Ming about all the details of her battle with the fifth-level space system.
"My first encounter was in a villa halfway up the mountain. It froze me from behind...severing my connection to space...the pitch-black surface seemed to have no thickness, as thin as a piece of paper."
"Then last night, it attacked Cheng Ming, but this time it was a normal, corrupted and twisted zombie body, without the black color... The weapon was a spatial blade, which simply drew a black line, and everything in the selected space would be cut open, even the supernatural powers."
"In addition to spatial confinement, its moves also include teleportation and transfer of supernatural power attacks. As for normal attacks, no one has ever tried them."
"The only nemesis is mental attack. Cheng Ming can release a mental barrier to block its supernatural power."
