Chapter 135 Meow
Drinking the hot and delicious porridge should be a happy thing.
But the happier they were, the more the mercenaries of the 11th Squadron remembered the voice of Mu Dong, who was supposed to be here, drinking porridge with them...
At this moment, Mu Dongsheng was sleeping in the endless frozen snowfield, all alone.
They couldn't even avenge him, and could only watch as their enemy transplanted Mu Mingqiu's supernatural crystal core, replaced Mu Mingqiu's position, and showed off his power in the Eastern Base.
...Thinking of this, everyone felt unwilling.
Tears fell into the bowl of porridge, and the fragrant porridge was also mixed with the salty and bitter tears.
“…”
At the side, Wang Li, the only guy with a crew cut who was not in line to buy porridge, looked at his companions and rubbed his temples irritably.
"What good is it to cry like that?"
Wang Li raised his head and took another big gulp of wine.
The spicy alcohol flowed from his throat into his stomach. Under the stimulation of the cheap and low-quality alcohol, his stomach began to cramp and feel painful.
However, Wang Li held on and took a few more sips until the whole bag of wine was empty. He shook it again and stopped only after making sure that there was not a drop of extra wine.
The alcohol evaporates in the blood, making people feel dizzy.
Wang Li has a shaved head and is usually the most rebellious and unruly one in the entire 11th detachment. Although he was powerful and one of the best power-type superpower possessors in the entire Eastern Base, he offended many people because of his reckless and extraordinary behavior. He was targeted by many people and was almost executed in prison.
Later, after Mu Dongsheng and Yi Cunqing recruited him into the 11th Team, Wang Li gradually displayed his talents and became the protector of the Eastern Base.
He is absolutely loyal to Mu Dongsheng and is willing to pay any price to avenge Mu Dongsheng.
Just now, if Yi Cunqing hadn't stopped him, he would have attacked Li Zhou directly. He might have been driven out of the base and left to fend for himself outside - even so, Wang Li did not regret it.
"Instead of crying here, you might as well think about how to avenge Captain Mu!"
Wang Li burped and said staggeringly:
"I, I'm different from you. I won't give in," Wang Li muttered, "That villain Li Zhou drove us to Area F just to intimidate us and make us drink that porridge... I have enough wine!"
His teammates looked at him helplessly.
Everyone knows that Wang Li is not only stubborn, but also an alcoholic. Especially after Captain Mu left, Wang Li drank more and more frequently, as if he was using alcohol to escape reality. Li Zhou forbade him to buy alcohol in the food area. He would rather go outside to buy low-quality alcohol at high prices from irregular vendors.
Long-term alcohol intake has made Wang Li's health deteriorate a lot.
Murong Miao sighed:
"Wang Li, you're drunk again. I told you to drink less. Drinking on an empty stomach is really bad, and these low-quality alcohols are bad for your body..."
The words haven't finished yet.
The big guy Wang Li suddenly shook and his face changed.
He leaned against the wall and bent down: "Wow - ugh -"
A bunch of mosaics gushed out of his mouth.
There was some blood in the middle.
Murong Miao: “…”
Everyone: “…………”
“You little bastard!” Seeing the commotion, Yi Cun Qing quickly swallowed the last half bowl of porridge, stood up, frowned distressedly, and helped Wang Li up, “I told you to drink less, drink less, look at you!”
Murong Miao suppressed his disgust and took a look at the mosaic that Wang Li vomited.
She was shocked at this sight.
Wang Li didn't know how long he hadn't eaten. Every day when he went out on a mission, he just relied on physical strength and alcohol to numb himself and hold on. His stomach was empty and what he vomited out was stomach acid and blood.
It's shocking to watch.
...Because of not eating for a long time, Wang Li's body and mind have been pushed to the limit.
"Hurry up, give him some water." Everyone called out hurriedly.
After drinking a few sips of cold water, Wang Li's condition not only did not improve, but became worse.
The weather was cold to begin with, and the cold water further stimulated the stomach and intestines that had been damaged by alcohol...
Wang Li was so uncomfortable that he kept retching. The nearly two-meter tall man curled up in grievance:
"It's so cold, do you have any hot soup or something??!"
Hot soup...
Everyone was stunned.
Everybody looked at each other.
...Everyone had a bowl of hot porridge in their hands.
"Well, Miaomiao, give him your porridge. You two are from the same school." Someone said to Murong Miao.
"No, you two usually sleep together. You two are closer than brothers. Just give him your porridge." Murong Miao said to the man unyieldingly.
"I think the third brother should give the porridge to Wang Li——"
Almost subconsciously, everyone tightly guarded the porridge in their hands and no one was willing to give it up. Although they couldn't explain why, no one was willing to share such delicious porridge with others!
Everyone was blaming each other, and there was even a tendency for a quarrel to break out.
Wang Li was still spitting blood and wailing: "It hurts, it hurts so much, give me something hot to drink, wuwuwu, ugh..."
The whole scene looked very chaotic.
It's simply a picture scroll from hell.
Yi Cunqing's head was buzzing due to the chattering of this group of people, and he felt a severe headache.
Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore and exploded.
"Everyone is quiet!!!"
Including Wang Li who was vomiting, everyone shut up immediately and looked at him with wide eyes.
——"Murong Miao, why don't you just go buy another bowl of porridge for Wang Li!"
Yi Cun Qing said angrily.
Only then did everyone react.
Yes...
Isn’t there a porridge shop right in front of you?
.
[Task Progress: 9/500]
"Your porridge is hot~"
Jian Yunlan handed the packaged porridge to Murong Miao with a smile.
After Murong Miao thanked the 'hidden boss' respectfully, he hurriedly returned to Wang Li with the bowl of porridge.
A bunch of mercenaries gathered around with concern, asking about his well-being, but in fact they were all hurriedly pouring their porridge into their mouths for fear that it would be snatched away by others.
"Drink." Murong Miao simply and roughly handed the bowl of porridge to Wang Li's mouth.
Wang Li didn't bother to blame Murong Miao for being rude. Because of the stimulation of alcohol, the cramps in his stomach were really uncomfortable.
He opened his mouth with difficulty and took a sip of porridge...
One bite.
After swallowing it, he took another mouthful.
Finally, Wang Li stopped pretending, sat up straight, took the bowl of porridge from Murong Miao, and started drinking it in big gulps.
There is no other reason.
Really...it's so delicious! ! !
The porridge is thick and soft. Although it is hot, it tastes fresh and fragrant, and the aroma of rice and meat is brought out. The hot porridge oil also flows into the throat. The porridge rice is soft and tasty when chewed, and the taste of lean meat and preserved eggs is even more unique.
Wang Li had been on a mission for the whole day and had hardly eaten anything. The surroundings were cold and his hands and feet had become cold without him noticing. But the hot porridge immediately dispelled the chill and also warmed his stomach which was feeling uncomfortable and cramped due to the alcohol.
The empty and aching stomach was completely healed by the warm and smooth porridge.
People who drink frequently are more or less dependent on alcohol, addicted, and cannot live without it. The same is true for Wang Li.
But at this moment, drinking the hot porridge, Wang Li felt...that crappy wine was not even one tenth as delicious as this porridge, so it was better not to drink it!
"Woo, it tastes good. So good." Wang Li said softly while sniffing.
"I told you it tastes good, but you still don't believe me."
"Yeah, don't be so stubborn next time."
"This is definitely better than wine—"
Everyone patted his shoulders and comforted him.
Wang Li savored the porridge carefully, and the pain and unwillingness in his heart were completely soothed by the warmth of this winter night.
——Also, I don’t know if it’s an illusion.
From just now on, a warm current actually surged in his crystal core, which was somewhat damaged due to long-term intake of large amounts of alcohol!
The warm current slowly surrounded the cracks on the crystal core, patching them up bit by bit until everything became as peaceful as before...
After eating porridge all night, Wang Li was stunned to find that all the scars on his supernatural crystal core located in his dantian had been healed, and his supernatural powers became extremely abundant!
"What's going on here?" Wang Li stretched out his hand in confusion. "Could it be that——"
He is a power-type mutant, and his power mainly enhances his physical strength. In his heyday, Wang Li could break steel bars and concrete with his bare hands, but due to days of fatigue, anger, hunger and alcohol, his abilities have deteriorated in recent days, and now he can hardly even break bricks.
But now…
A ball of light gathered in his palm, and he picked up a piece of steel bar from the ground and exerted slight force.
Bang!
The steel bar was crushed into powder in an instant!
This movement also attracted the attention of others.
Everyone looked at him in surprise. They were all aware of Wang Li's situation. When he went out on the mission today, Wang Li could only barely keep up with everyone else, let alone use his special abilities.
But now, judging from the supernatural power condensed in Wang Li’s hands, he has actually recovered to his prime? !
"Wang Li, what are you doing--" Murong Miao widened his eyes, walked forward and held Wang Li's hand.
Murong Miao has a perception-type ability. As a sniper, her ability allows her to shoot the target in the head from a thousand meters away. At the same time, she can also use her perception to detect the status of other psychics.
Murong Miao closed his eyes and sensed for a moment, then shouted in doubt:
"Your crystal core has been completely repaired?!"
Everyone was extremely surprised.
...The more advanced the supernatural crystal core is, the more special means are required to repair it. Wang Li's A-level superpowers require purchasing the most expensive nutrient solution, or going to a specialized healing superpower user to repair them.
But what exactly happened that allowed Wang Li's supernatural crystal core to be repaired instantly? !
Murong Miao frowned tightly.
As the mercenary with the sharpest perception among the people present, she discovered that the miraculous changes were not only happening to Wang Li.
——Wang Li’s crystal core was the most seriously damaged, so after he was repaired, his reaction was also the most acute.
But the crystal cores of other mercenaries were also repaired to some extent, but not as strongly...
Murong Miao looked at everyone: "Hurry up and sense your own energy crystal cores!"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately focused their attention on their Dantian.
Gradually, some people exclaimed:
"Holy crap, the part I damaged three years ago has been repaired."
"My powers have returned to full strength."
"My crystal core is about to be upgraded!"
“…”
What exactly caused this change?
…Everyone cast their shocked eyes towards the small porridge shop not far away.
