Chapter 263 Organizing the Nerves



Old Li regained consciousness three days later.

Over the past three days, representatives from the Xuanwu Base, Baihu Base, and my own Zhuque Base have all come to visit, saying they want to meet with the Oasis Base.

Fang Qingdai refused to see them all.

It's not appropriate to contact either party right now; one wrong move and you could get dragged into something else entirely.

They will remain indoors unless a united front of three parties attacks the Oasis base.

However, the three parties are currently scheming against each other and fighting fiercely. A batch of energy stones was lost a few days ago, making them even more eager to fight. It is impossible for them to form a united front to put pressure on the Oasis Base in the short term.

On the third day, the Azure Dragon Base issued a public statement acknowledging the existence of the Oasis Base and brazenly held a ceremony to mark the base's completion, essentially declaring that the Oasis Base was under the protection of the Azure Dragon Base.

After that, the three parties temporarily stopped their probing.

Fang Qingdai had just breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Old Li had woken up.

She rushed to the hospital to visit him.

Mr. Li has undergone surgery on his hands and legs.

Mao Ling personally performed the surgery, which lasted nineteen hours, before successfully repositioning Mr. Li's shattered bones.

Fortunately, there were medications to help. After the bone was repositioned, I drank the medication and the injury healed by about 70-80%, without having to go through the pain of getting bone screws and plates inserted.

But when Old Li woke up, his eyes were glazed over and he seemed somewhat delirious.

Fang Qingdai's heart sank slightly upon seeing this.

I originally thought the Xuanwu base was just giving people a mental suggestion, but who knew it would directly mess up their nerves!

How can someone like this explain things to the White Tiger Base?

unless……

Either the psychic ability user next to Li Weidong was not capable enough to give precise hints, and the operation was flawed, damaging Li's nerves.

Or perhaps Li Weidong originally intended to rip off the White Tiger Base, and after the transaction was completed, the White Tiger Base discovered that Old Li had lost his mind after undergoing treatment. When they came to find Li Weidong again, he wouldn't acknowledge them and would completely break off relations.

Regardless of the reason, Fang Qingdai couldn't help but curse several times.

Damn it! Wasteland is already backward in civilization and technology. A scientist of this caliber should be carefully protected in any base, but he almost lost his life in Xuanwu Base!

Fang Qingdai took a few deep breaths to calm herself down and carefully probed Li Lao with her spiritual power.

She quickly detected the residual spiritual energy fluctuations. After thinking for a moment, Fang Qingdai used her own spiritual energy to guide and try to extract the residual spiritual energy.

She was worried that there was residual spiritual energy inside, and if she barged in, it would cause resistance and rejection from the residual spiritual energy, which would make Old Li even more stupid!

Fang Qingdai tried several times, and each time she managed to hook onto the wisp of residual spiritual energy, but before she could exert any effort to pull it out, the spiritual energy would struggle and swim away!

Each struggle it made Old Li unconsciously let out a low moan of pain!

Fang Qingdai quickly took a deep breath to suppress her anxiety.

She was right to try to draw out his mental energy first. Even the slightest fluctuation could cause Old Li pain. If she rashly entered, and the remaining mental energy resisted severely, Old Li might die!

Fang Qingdai became increasingly cautious, and after three hours of hard work, she finally managed to pull out that wisp of residual spiritual energy!

She breathed a sigh of relief, fell backward, and collapsed weakly onto the hospital bed next to her!

"How is it?" Seeing this, Mao Ling finally dared to breathe heavily. She had been watching for three hours and was sore all over. The tension had even caused her muscles to spasm slightly. She couldn't imagine how tired Fang Qingdai must have been after three hours of meticulous operation!

It's probably about the same as the day she had surgery that lasted for nineteen hours!

Fang Qingdai waved her hand weakly: "It's out, but we haven't sorted out his nerves yet."

Mr. Li's dementia was caused by his nerves being disturbed by mental energy. Fortunately, his nerves were not damaged, and he should be able to recover once things are sorted out.

But she's so exhausted she feels like she could die, and she simply can't keep going to finish combing her hair!

The high-precision control of mental energy was more than ten times more tiring than running around in the space, and Fang Qingdai experienced dizziness, a symptom she hadn't felt in a long time.

However, it must be said that her high-precision operation has also made her control over her mental power more and more consummate. In just three hours, she felt that she had improved more than she had in three months of regular training!

Fang Qingdai, who had a stronger sense of control, couldn't wait any longer. After resting for a while, she immediately got up and prepared to soothe Old Man Li's nerves.

This time there were no obstacles, and Fang Qingdai entered smoothly.

She carefully manipulated her mental energy, gently smoothing along the nerves, and before long, Old Li's eyes regained some clarity.

Fang Qingdai then stopped what she was doing: "His nerves can't withstand high-intensity pulling and manipulating. Let's stop here for today. We should be able to get him back in about two or three more days."

Huang Guang, who had been silent all along, finally let out a long sigh of relief, and a few tears rolled down his cheeks as the sting in his eyes welled up with tears.

"Thank you, base commander, Dr. Mao, and all the doctors..."

Fang Qingdai stopped Huang Guang, who was pacing around thanking her, and said with a smile, "We're family, no need to be so polite!"

Huang Guang nodded vigorously. After everyone left, he immediately shook his son Huang Changming over and gave him a lecture on how the base belonged to his family.

Huang Changming looked completely bewildered: "Dad, why are you saying all this?"

Huang Guang slapped Huang Changming on the head: "Loving the base is everyone's duty and responsibility. Why am I saying all this? I'm giving you a lesson in ideology!"

Huang Changming rubbed his forehead, feeling wronged and frustrated, but didn't dare to speak. In his heart, however, he was complaining: You don't need to tell me that, everyone knows how good the base is!

The base is now demarcating its territory while also setting aside an area within the oasis to shelter those displaced by war and with nowhere else to go.

The Azure Dragon Base strongly supported the Oasis Base's actions and quickly sent a team, led by Deputy Wang, to establish the Azure Dragon Base Embassy at the Oasis Base to assist the Oasis Base in managing the refugees.

The anticipated disturbances and riots did not materialize. Upon hearing that food and lodging would be provided and that they would receive protection from a base, all the refugees wept with joy!

After moving in, everyone was very enthusiastic, building houses when asked and clearing land when asked.

After all, if you work hard, you can get three big white steamed buns every day!

Not to mention the free medical care. After escaping the war, they encountered monsters and their own kind along the way, and by the time they reached the oasis base, they were all dead.

The Oasis Base has distributed a batch of Grade C potions. Anyone who signs the treaty to voluntarily join the Oasis Base and promises to abide by its rules can receive the potions!

Despite their severe injuries, the refugees possessed remarkable resilience. After settling in the oasis base, they quickly recovered and immediately threw themselves into the base's construction.

The news inevitably reached the outside world, and those who were still hesitant immediately made up their minds.

Refugees are not welcome anywhere these days, and they might even be captured and sent to the front lines as human shields if they're not careful. Although the conditions at the Oasis Base sound like a dream scam, people with nowhere else to go are still flocking there like a tide.
