In order to avoid suspicion, she took out some crystal cores, sat on a chair and began to absorb them.
More than two hours passed before she opened the door.
Tang Nuo and his men were waiting outside. Seeing that Mu Cheng had been bitten in many places and was still covered in blood, he walked over with a distressed look on his face and touched the bloody marks on her face caused by the mutant rat. "I can't go back tonight. When you go back, take a good bath and let Xiaotong help you with your wounds. I'll let Xiao Yunchang and Guozi stay at home to help take care of you. My dad, eldest brother, and uncle probably won't be able to go back tonight."
"Well! You don't have to worry about home, I'm here." Mu Cheng smiled and reached out to check the stains on Tang Nuo's face. "You should also be careful. Remember to treat your own wounds first. Don't just focus on helping others. If something happens to you, it will only cause more trouble."
"I know. I'm a family man now. I cherish my life more than before and care more about my comrades around me." Tang Nuo said with a smile, turning back to look at Chen Zihang, "Zihang, send your sister-in-law back first."
"Okay." Chen Zihang nodded in agreement.
It was pitch black outside at this moment, but this night was destined not to be peaceful. The mutant rats were still being cleared outside, and there were cars and people coming and going on the road.
"Notice, urgent notice! Anyone bitten or scratched by mutant rats or snakes today must immediately go to Renhe Hospital and queue up for treatment. Research Institute C, established by the commander, has developed a cure for corpse poison. Anyone bitten by mutant rats or snakes will receive free treatment."
Mu Cheng leaned quietly in his seat without saying a word.
Seeing Mu Cheng like this, Chen Zihang thought she was worried about the potions, so he comforted her, "Sister-in-law, don't worry. Although the base provides free treatment to the people here, the commander has already agreed with the senior officials that 10% of the crystal cores dug up by each unit this time must be used as a subsidy for the research laboratory. Although not everyone may honestly pay the full 10%, it won't be too little."
Mu Cheng smiled at Chen Zihang and said, "I know the commander won't let me suffer any loss. I'm just a little worried about you. We don't know how many people in the base are injured, and you don't know when you will be able to rest after being busy all this time."
Chen Zihang smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you don't have to worry about us. We will take turns. The boss, Captain Tang, and Captain Su have already discussed it. The three of them will supervise it personally."
With three people he trusted watching over him, Mu Cheng finally felt relieved.
Soon Mu Cheng returned to Area A, which was also in chaos. The injured were driving to the hospital. Chen Zihang said that the families of soldiers had priority and these people would be the first to receive treatment at the hospital.
The house was in a mess, with corpses and sticky liquids everywhere. When Mu Cheng walked into the house, everyone was cleaning up.
But the house is such a mess, it will probably take several days to clean it up.
Seeing these corpses, Mu Cheng remembered something. The skin of mutant beasts can be used to make clothes, and their bones can be used to make weapons. Their skin and bones are extremely hard. Using them to make clothes will make everyone safer when going out on missions.
Of course, the skins of these mutant snakes and mutant mice are useless. They are only level one and their bodies are too weak. There is no need to make clothes with them, but their meat can be eaten.
Mu Cheng picked up the phone and called the commander.
The commander repeatedly asked Mu Cheng to confirm that the meat was edible. He immediately ordered the soldiers outside to take back the corpses with the crystal cores dug out. He also asked someone to send a new notice on the radio to tell everyone that the mutant rats and mutant snakes were edible.
