Chapter 166: Critical Situation
Qin An carried out Yun Han's orders unconditionally. After the batch of medicines were refined, they were all pre-installed. Yun Han personally injected Qin An with the medicines. It only took a minute for Qin An to excitedly tell Yun Han, "Commander, the effect of this medicine is much better than the inhibitor we used before. The contamination in my body and the sudden increase in the alienation value have all been cleared, and even the alienation value that has been slowly accumulated in the past has a downward trend."
"You and Qiao Yu arrange people to inject these medicines to the soldiers." Yun Han stood in place, looking into the distance. He was in a complicated mood at the moment. He didn't expect that he owed Ning Xuan another favor before he could repay her for saving his life.
If Ning Xuan hadn't given this batch of medicines, the Tianwei Legion would have suffered heavy losses, and even Qin An might have been killed.
About 2/3 of the soldiers who retreated from the battlefield showed signs of mental agitation and a sudden increase in their alienation values. More than 30 people had been killed after becoming completely alienated and out of control. Qin An and Qiao Yu acted quickly. About half an hour later, all those with abnormal mental strength and alienation values were injected with drugs.
The originally gloomy atmosphere in the base was reversed almost instantly. Yun Han's return changed the morale of the entire legion.
At the same time, Qiao Yu had arranged the deployment of the medical team. The soldiers who temporarily served as medical staff began to test the alienation values of the soldiers who had been injected with the medicine. The alienation values of most soldiers had returned to normal, and only a few soldiers with serious infections still had higher values. However, judging from their condition, their body functions had basically returned to normal.
Yun Han returned to his familiar territory, and accompanied by Qin An and others, he walked into his headquarters. After scanning Yun Han's facial features, the door of the headquarters slid open automatically, accompanied by a slight electronic sound of "ding", as if welcoming his return.
The light in the room was soft, and the wall was inlaid with a smart display screen, which was off at this time. In front of the headquarters was a suspended holographic projection screen, which projected a faint blue light. In the center was a huge table, the tabletop was made of transparent high-strength glass, and a multi-layer holographic projection system was embedded underneath. With just a light touch, a three-dimensional image would emerge on the tabletop, which included the starry sky, terrain, real-time monitoring, and weather changes within a range of thousands of kilometers around the station.
The edge of the table was inlaid with a circle of glimmering control panels, on which were arranged various complex buttons and touch screens, each representing a different tactical command or data retrieval function. Every detail embodied the perfect combination of technology and efficiency, and demonstrated the strength of the Tianwei Legion as a first-level elite legion.
Yun Han sat down on the seat in the middle covered with soft black leather. Qin An and others saluted him and then sat on both sides.
"Thank you for your hard work over the past two years." Yun Han looked at Qin An and others and sighed.
"Master Yun, as long as you can come back, this little bit of hardship doesn't matter. It's a pity that we are so useless." Qiao Yu looked at the black collar faintly visible under Yun Han's neck, his voice choked with sobs.
He had seen many colleagues, comrades-in-arms, and subordinates wearing contractor neck rings, and he was used to it. However, seeing the neck ring on Yun Han's neck made him feel very uncomfortable.
Qin An, like Qiao Yu, had red eyes. "If it wasn't for protecting us, the commander wouldn't have fallen into that danger."
Yun Han frowned, "Okay, why are you two crying? Qin An, report the initial process of this wormhole explosion and the support from all parties."
Yun Han sat in the command chair, glanced at everyone, and gave instructions lightly.
"Yes." Qin An adjusted his mood and began to report the situation.
Qin An had reviewed the support situation before returning to the base. Now he combined the official information received after the wormhole explosion with the information they had obtained privately, and reported it to Yun Han.
Yun Han listened to Qin An's report with a solemn expression. He stood up and walked to the holographic projection in the center of the command room. He lightly tapped his finger, and the holographic projection screen lit up, and the regional map of the three star fields where the wormhole erupted was immediately displayed in front of everyone.
Yun Han searched on the optical computer and put a few pictures on the table in front of everyone. "From the pictures taken, the black hole invading creatures have various forms, and there is black fog around their bodies. Judging from the results of the battle, this black fog will pollute the spiritual sea of the soul controller, thus causing abnormalities in the soul controller's mental power and alienation value."
Yun Han concluded.
At the same time, on the holographic projection screen, the invasion path of the black fog creatures, the scope of infection, and the post-war pollution of the spirit controller's spiritual sea were all clearly marked.
Although this is just a rough data model made based on the data released by the military, everyone in the command room felt a chill in their hearts as they watched the explosive growth in the number of infected people.
Qiao Yu clenched his fists, his voice trembling a little: "Marshal Yun, Qin Chuan and Yan Pengyuan are still on the battlefield over there, and it has been more than 24 hours. They should have withdrawn to rest three hours ago, but the battlefield command center used the excuse that the replacement troops had not arrived and did not allow them to withdraw. More than two hours ago, I communicated with the command center as the temporary decision-maker of the Tianwei Legion, asking them when the replacement troops would arrive. They only said that it would be soon, but did not explain the specific time. Marshal Yun, judging from Qin An's experience, I am afraid that if Qin Chuan and the others persist, few of them will be able to come back." Qiao Yu was a little unable to continue. If Marshal Yun had come a little later, Qin An's situation would have been very dangerous, and the garrison here would probably have fallen.
Yun Han's face was heavy, he knew that Qiao Yu's words were not alarmist, he had just used his personal account to apply to the military to unseal his personal file. He was the commander of the Tianwei Legion, but he was originally in a temporary position because he could not perform his duties due to personal reasons. However, now that he was back at the base, he only needed to apply to the military to unseal his personal file to resume his position.
Only when he resumes his position can he communicate with the control center there with legitimate reasons.
Yun Han opened his personal mailbox and found that the military was very efficient and had replied to him. The military found out that Yun Han was Ning Xuan's indentured servant and required Yun Han to obtain Ning Xuan's consent before unsealing his file.
Yun Han's fiery heart was suddenly poured with a bucket of cold water. He was already nervous because of the severe situation on the battlefield. He forgot for a moment that it was a special favor from Ning Xuan that he came to the base in person. Now, how dare he go a step further and ask Ning Xuan to agree to unseal his file?
