Chapter 312 Finally Safe
At 10:06 am on March 6, 2029, Tianquan Star time, Lan Ximeng stayed beside the unconscious people and fed them the carefully prepared medicine one by one. However, due to their severe injuries, no one woke up.
Three hours have passed since Wei Zhentian showed up. Lan Ximeng became more and more anxious. She felt like there was a fire burning in her heart, and she was so anxious that ulcers appeared at the corners of her mouth.
"Why hasn't the rescue come yet?" Lan Ximeng frowned and muttered to herself with a worried look on her face.
"Don't worry, Senior Wei must have already notified everyone, and the rescue should be on the way right now." Wei Huaiyu gently half-hugged Lan Ximeng and comforted her softly, trying to calm her panicked heart.
At this time, the big and small Baishu looked at each other.
Dabaishu signaled with his eyes: Are you hungry?
Xiao Baishu nodded slightly: hungry.
Dabaishu looked at him and asked: Go and ask them if they have anything to eat?
Xiao Baishu understood: Okay!
Xiao Baishu ran to Lan Ximeng like a lively little deer. He looked down at Lan Ximeng, his eyes as pure as a child who had never experienced the world, and said, "Sister, do you have anything to eat? Laogui and I are starving."
Lan Ximeng suddenly pulled herself out of Wei Huaiyu's arms, looking a little unnatural, her eyes wandering left and right, and she said calmly: "Ah, you are hungry, here you go. I only have nutrient supplements left now." As she spoke, she handed over two bottles of green liquid nutrient supplements.
"Nutrient?" Xiao Baishu looked at the thing in his hand, and the expression on his face instantly became complicated. He began to wonder in his heart, can this thing be drunk? He looked down at Lan Ximeng again and asked doubtfully, "Sister, can I eat this?"
"You don't know about nutritional supplements?" Lan Ximeng then really focused her attention on Xiao Baishu. The boy was slightly taller than himself, but he looked very young, and his eyes were as clear as a child of fifteen or sixteen. She had always thought that Xiao Baishu was a member of her brother's team, but now it seems that this is not the case.
"Yes, just drink it directly. It is rich in various energies needed by the human body. One bottle can almost sustain energy consumption for half a day." Lan Ximeng explained patiently.
"Oh! So this is the nutrient mentioned in interstellar novels!" Xiao Baishu suddenly realized, and a look of amazement appeared on his face. He ran to Dabaizhu happily and handed him a nutrient solution, while dancing and describing in vivid detail the magical effects of the green liquid.
When Lan Ximeng heard the words "interstellar novel", her heart suddenly moved, and she instantly felt a sense of intimacy as if she had met an old friend in a foreign land. She was full of curiosity at the moment and really wanted to go over and ask the young man when he came here. But when she thought that Wei Huaiyu was right beside her, she suppressed her inner impulse. After all, she didn't want others to know the secret of her family's background.
Wei Huaiyu keenly noticed Lan Ximeng's strangeness, and with curiosity in his heart, he asked softly, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay. I just didn't expect that there would be someone who didn't know about nutritional supplements." Lan Ximeng casually found a topic to get over it.
"They have been raised in captivity by orcs since they were young, and have since lived in the orcs' territory. The orcs' dietary structure is very different from ours." A trace of loneliness flashed in Wei Huaiyu's eyes. He knew in his heart that Lan Ximeng did not tell him the truth. He really wanted to dig deeper, but when he thought about it carefully, they were just friends at the moment and it seemed that he was not in a position to ask too many questions.
"So that's it!" Lan Ximeng nodded thoughtfully. She seemed to have caught a hint of loneliness in Wei Huaiyu's eyes just now. But she quickly shook her head and wondered to herself, how is that possible? What is there for him to be lonely about?
Amid Lan Ximeng's anxious waiting and torment, finally, that afternoon, a huge starship slowly emerged from the vast space like a meteor across the sky. Immediately afterwards, a small silver-gray spaceship flew out from the starship like an arrow and flew rapidly towards the direction where Lan Ximeng and others were.
Seeing this, Lan Ximeng and others became alert instantly. The current situation was unclear and they had no way of judging whether the other party was a friend or foe.
"It's me!" Lu Lige's voice came clearly from the spaceship.
Lan Ximeng felt that the voice sounded familiar and asked in confusion, "Is this one of ours?"
"Yes." Wei Huaiyu nodded in confirmation, then whispered something in Lan Ximeng's ear.
"Really?" Lan Ximeng's eyes suddenly lit up like stars, with gossip flashing in her eyes. Now that the rescue had arrived, her tense nerves relaxed and her spirits returned. She asked, "Do you know about them?"
Wei Huaiyu shook his head and said, "Xiangyang might know."
"Xiangyang?" Lan Ximeng was shocked. She really didn't expect that Teacher Xiangyang was Lan Yuncheng's teammate and might know the inside story.
Lu Lige quickly controlled the spacecraft to land steadily. She and her teammates quickly came to Lan Ximeng, with a look of surprise on her face, and asked, "Why are you here?"
"I..." Lan Ximeng looked up at the sky, speechless for a moment, not knowing how to explain.
"Okay, stop asking questions and carry them up quickly. They need treatment urgently." Seeing this, Wei Huaiyu hurriedly pulled Lan Ximeng away to make room for others to carry the injured onto the spacecraft.
Lan Ximeng had been paying attention to Lu Lige's reaction. When she saw her eyes turn red when she saw Lan Yuncheng's miserable condition, she was sure in her heart that what Wei Huaiyu said was true.
"Everyone, come up!" Lan Ximeng called to everyone.
After boarding the starship, Lan Ximeng and his group were placed in the infirmary for emergency treatment.
Apart from overdrawing her supernatural powers and slightly weakening her mental strength, Lan Ximeng was fine. On the other hand, Wei Huaiyu had many hidden injuries on his body. Lan Ximeng's previous treatment did not make him completely healed, and there were also tiny cracks on his supernatural core. Among everyone, Lan Yuncheng's injuries were the most serious. His mental strength was almost collapsed, his supernatural power core was damaged, his body was covered with scars, and his right calf was broken. Even if you lie in the most advanced treatment chamber, it will take more than half a year to recover.
Lu Lige immediately detained the two Baishus and said apologetically, "Your identities are sensitive now, so I can only lock you up first. I'm really sorry."
"It's okay." Da Baishu waved his hand generously and said, "We know our identities. Go and do your thing."
After Lu Lige left, Xiao Baishu asked in confusion, "Do you think we can live like normal people in the future?"
"Can I?" Dabaishu looked at the vast starry sky outside the window with deep eyes and a thousand thoughts in his mind. He was not sure what the future would be like.
The next day, Lan Ximeng walked out of the treatment chamber, feeling relaxed all over, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her. She carefully felt her own abilities and was pleasantly surprised to find that after that fierce battle, her abilities had been upgraded to the initial stage of level five.
"Is this a blessing in disguise?" Lan Ximeng clenched her fists, feeling the surging power in her body. She was eager to try it out and wanted to find a place to test the power of her new ability right away.
"Hello, little sister Lan." After Lu Lige found that Lan Ximeng had woken up, he immediately walked forward and asked with concern: "How do you feel?"
"I'm fine, thank you sister-in-law for your concern." Lan Ximeng showed her white teeth and looked at Lu Lige with a smile. When she called her "sister-in-law", Lu Lige's face instantly turned red like a ripe apple.
"Hehe, I'm glad you're okay." Lu Lige didn't expect Lan Yuncheng's sister to be so straightforward. After all, their relationship had not reached that stage yet.
