Chapter 204 The Super Energy Elixir Returns with a Full Load
There was no response. Zuo Shan used the hoe to hook his body and dragged him as close to her as possible. She mustered her courage and placed her hand under his nose—he was still breathing!
Zuo Shan quickly took out a piece of linen cloth that he always carried with him to wipe away sweat and wiped the sticky liquid off the man's face.
Then he took a water bottle out of his backpack and poured it on the man's face.
After his face was thoroughly washed clean, his true identity was revealed—it was Cui Bin!
Although Zuo Shan didn't know why he had become like this, she guessed it was related to the viscous liquid stored in this depression.
But when she took the sealed bag to collect the liquid, and when she wiped his face, both of her hands touched the liquid, and there was no abnormal reaction.
It doesn't hurt or itch, and it doesn't feel like poisoning at all.
All she wanted to do now was wake him up as soon as possible and get him back to the ground. After such a long time without any response, Song Bo and Lele must be going crazy with worry.
Thinking of this, she began to slap his cheeks hard, but he did not react. She touched his carotid artery and found that his pulse was beating very violently, as if his heart was about to explode.
In the dim light of her wristwatch flashlight, she saw that his cheeks were flushed, as if he had a high fever.
Unfortunately, Encyclopedia Li wasn't with her, so she couldn't determine what was wrong with him, but she had a guess.
Could this person have absorbed an excessive amount of energy, to the point that they're about to explode?
If this conjecture is correct, it means that these viscous liquids contain a lot of energy.
Since he wouldn't wake up anytime soon, she simply took out two more sealed bags, filled them with the remaining viscous liquid, and then stored them in her spatial storage.
After finishing this, she looked at the depression again. It was actually only slightly larger than a regular bathtub, and the viscous liquid inside was only about 200 liters in total.
Because she guessed it was a treasure, she named it Super Power Liquid. Well, the name was a bit too plain, sounding a bit like some kind of laundry detergent.
Zuo Shan was too lazy to think about the problem anymore. Since she had already collected all the Super Energy Liquid, she couldn't just stay in the same place and wait.
Thinking of this, she began to look for Cui Bin's clothes around her, and soon found them. They were neatly arranged on the ground next to the pool of super-powerful spiritual liquid where he had fainted.
This discovery made her think that Cui Bin must have discovered the powerful energy contained in this super-energy liquid, which is why he took off his clothes and went inside.
He probably thought this would make it easier to absorb energy, but he didn't expect to absorb too much energy at once, so much so that he couldn't control the energy surge in his body and collapsed into the pool.
Having figured out what had happened, Zuo Shan quickly wiped the super-powerful liquid off his body, dressed him, picked up his backpack, carried him on her back, and walked out of the cave.
When Zuo Shan laboriously dragged him to the rope ladder, she saw Song Bo, who had already descended to the last step.
"What's wrong with him?" Song Bo asked anxiously.
"I don't know. When I found him, he was lying unconscious on the ground. I guess he was knocked out by the fall?" Zuo Shan instinctively chose to conceal the matter of the super energy liquid.
It wasn't that she was unwilling to share with her companions, but Song Bo had an entire mercenary group behind him. If he wasn't careful and leaked the secret, she would get very little benefit.
Ever since she formed a contract with Wanwan and awakened her superpower, her superpower level is still at level zero. She desperately needs some treasures that can help her advance.
Always at the bottom, she could only be chased around whenever she encountered a mutated beast, and she had long been fed up with this feeling of powerlessness.
She wanted to become stronger, to protect Ah Chen, to protect Lele, and to protect herself, instead of always having to hide.
Song Bo shone a flashlight on Cui Bin's face and felt his pulse, and roughly determined that he had absorbed an excessive amount of energy.
His partner fell into the hole but didn't die. Instead, he unexpectedly benefited, and he was genuinely happy for him. However, the energy exploded, and the only result was death.
We must get him up there as soon as possible, and then find a solution from the regimental commander.
Song Bo was stumped about how to climb up there.
He was strong enough to carry someone up, but the difficulty lay in the fact that the rattan rope ladder was not sturdy enough. If he hadn't been worried about Zuo Shan being in danger below, he definitely wouldn't have come down.
“Here’s what we’ll do: you climb up a rope ladder first, find a foothold, then throw me a rope to tie around my waist. Then I’ll carry him up, and we’ll repeat that,” Zuo Shan said.
“But you’re such a thin woman, and not strong at all, it’s really too tiring for you to carry him,” Song Bo said apologetically.
"It's okay, I have a speed ability. Although my ability level is low, I'm fast enough. Besides, you'll be there to pull me along," Zuo Shan laughed.
The two of them made that decision. Actually, there was still a certain risk for Song Bo, who was climbing ahead. If the rope ladder couldn't support him, there would be no one to pull him up from above.
Fortunately, the journey was uneventful, and we finally made it safely to the ground.
At this moment, the speed-type ability user sent by Kang Zhenghao to help with the rescue had arrived. Seeing the unconscious Cui Bin, he quickly carried him back to where the truck was parked.
After diagnosing his condition, the team doctor could only shake his head, saying that his condition was due to excessive energy intake, and whether he could pull through was entirely up to fate.
Kang Zhenghao sent people down into the cave again, where they found the burlap sack Zuo Shan had used to wipe Cui Bin's body, as well as the depression that was now just a little mud.
They dug three feet into the depression and filled sacks with soil to take with them.
No one doubted that Zuo Shan had taken away so much super-energy liquid, because this kind of high-energy viscous liquid with zero radiation, which is hidden deep underground, is said to take more than a thousand years to produce even a few drops.
Since this matter had been exposed, the two leaders discussed it and decided to store the spoils in the Fearless Mercenary Group's warehouse to reward mercenaries who made contributions in the future.
