Chapter 234: The End of the World (9)
The two of them were silent for a while, and Bai Su took the initiative to thank Chen Tian: "The ointment was very effective before, thank you."
"It's okay." Chen Tian shook his head.
Seeing Chen Tian's rare silence, Bai Su continued, "And this time, thank you for coming with us to get the medicine. It was dangerous, and we were grateful to you for the journey."
Hearing Bai Su say this, Chen Tian tilted his head and said awkwardly, "You don't have to say these high-sounding words. Although we have a good name, the Flame Squad, and we are now very popular in the base, in the eyes of your student union, we are still the same group of punks before the apocalypse.
You are all top students, while some of us haven't even attended school for a few days. You are so outstanding and even the student council president, but we have always known that you look down on us.
"It's nothing, we're used to it. Don't worry, since we promised, we will definitely do it and help you get the medicine and equipment back smoothly."
"That's not the case!" Bai Su quickly retorted, but when he saw Chen Tian's somewhat lonely expression, he realized that what he said was not just out of anger.
Obviously, he really believed this and said that.
The self-mockery and loneliness in the man's expression made his heart ache. Bai Su then realized that Bu Zhengchen was actually about the same age as him, just a young man in his twenties.
However, due to the different living environment, he embarked on a completely different life.
He thought about the rumors he had heard before: Bu Zhengchen and Bu Yuanwu's parents died very early. When they were young, the two brothers suffered a lot, which is why they became what they are now.
At that time, Bu Zhengchen was only a child, yet he lived a life of hunger and homelessness. Not only did he have to work hard to feed himself, but he also had to take care of his younger brother.
If he could grow up in a normal family, even if not rich, even if just ordinary, perhaps he would have had an ordinary but happy childhood like himself.
He might even become a member of his own school and an alumnus of his own school.
He had actually seen the Flame Squad members look at them with longing in their eyes. If they had a choice, who wouldn't want to be a better version of themselves?
Bai Su pursed his lips tightly, feeling his heart was being pulled tight.
He couldn't help but hold Chen Tian's hand and said to him seriously: "It's not like that, at least I definitely don't look down on you!
Believe me, our two teams can actually get along very well, it's just that we didn't really understand each other in the past, which led to some misunderstandings."
"Bu Zhengchen, I know you've had a hard time these past few years, but you've really done a great job. Look at your brother, he's grown tall and strong thanks to you.
You are a good brother and a good captain. Your brothers are lucky to know you!"
At this point, Li Baisu paused for a moment before continuing, "It's my luck to know you."
The words of his beloved were so sincere and heartfelt that Chen Tian blushed even though he had just wanted to play the victim, but the result was not bad.
Looking at his hand held by his lover, Chen Tian felt very warm.
However, when the atmosphere was just right, Zhu Boyu on the side suddenly spoke, turned over, and looked like he was about to wake up.
Chen Tian then noticed that it was almost dawn, but having communicated for half a night was a good thing for them anyway.
So, following his character, Chen Tian quickly stood up, coughed lightly and said, "I'm leaving." Then he turned around and left.
Chen Tian left in a hurry, but Bai Su did not miss his slightly red cheeks. He always felt that the man's departure had a sense of fleeing in desperation.
Bai Su felt that Chen Tian was even more adorable, and his heart was beating irregularly.
He confirmed his heartbeat again, he really had feelings for Bu Zhengchen.
He had always been indifferent to everything in his life, and had never felt such strong feelings towards anyone as he did now. But when it came to Bu Zhengchen, thinking about what had just happened, he really wanted to hug him, comfort him, and even kiss him.
By now, Bai Su could no longer deceive himself. It seemed that he had fallen in love with Bu Zhengchen since he didn't know when.
After figuring it out, Bai Su felt relieved. He felt that he was very lucky because it was obvious that Bu Zhengchen also liked him.
Is there anything more joyful than being able to be in love with the person you love?
It’s a pity that now is not a good time to clarify this matter. After all, they are carrying out a very important mission, and there are many people in the team.
Now it was daybreak. After waking up, Zhu Boyu realized that he had slept the entire night. He looked at Bai Su with some apology.
Bai Su smiled and waved his hand, indicating that it was okay. He had asked someone else to accompany him just in case of any emergencies. Bai Su was very happy to be able to chat with Chen Tian for so long. Even though he hadn't slept all night, he didn't feel tired at all.
He was just waiting for them to return to the base, then he would go find Chen Tian and explain everything between them. Thinking of the other party's expression and reaction at that time, Bai Su was looking forward to it.
Everyone got up, took out the food they brought with them, and after a simple meal, they were ready to set off.
Mo Xiu and Bai Su discussed the matter until very late yesterday. Early in the morning, when the people from Shanhe Base came out, Bai Su went to meet them.
The people from other Shanhe bases were also very happy to see Bai Su and his team. It was obvious that Mo Xiu had already told them that the people from the two bases would work together.
Mo Xiu originally brought a small number of people, but with the addition of Bai Su and Chen Tian's team, their safety was greatly guaranteed.
Mo Xiu and Bai Su briefly discussed the remaining matters, and then the group got in the car and set off from the resort.
On the way, they still encountered many dangers, but this time, with the three teams cooperating with each other, the journey was smoother and much faster than when they came.
So by the afternoon, they had already arrived at the location of the suburban pharmaceutical factory, and everyone was ready to get down to business.
But man proposes, God disposes.
[The time was postponed to a few hours later]
Bai Su, Chen Tian and most of the people in the university town base ran into a huge conference room covered in dust and dirt.
The surrounding environment was relatively quiet and they were safe for the time being.
After a tense battle, everyone's face was exhausted. They staggered around looking for a place to rest, and some even sat down on the ground.
Bai Su and Chen Tian followed behind, and after they entered the room last and closed the door, Bai Su turned around and looked at Chen Tian with eyes full of anger.
The next second, he punched Chen Tian in the face in front of everyone.
Chen Tian failed to dodge Bai Su's punch and was hit hard, his right cheekbone instantly turning purple. Or perhaps, he had clearly noticed it but deliberately didn't dodge.
"Are you fucking crazy? Do you know how dangerous it was just now?"
"If you were one second later, just one second, you would be dead now!"
When Chen Tian heard this, his face, which had been turned to the side due to the beating, slowly straightened up.
He stared at Bai Su with deep eyes and said word by word: "I know, but so what. If I don't save you, you will be the one who dies!"
[Time goes back a few hours]
As soon as they entered the pharmaceutical factory, they were all eager to try, but they found that this place was not like what the intelligence said, full of zombies.
The silence around them made people feel very uneasy. They groped their way to the pharmaceutical factory's warehouse, opened it carefully, and saw it was full of medicines and equipment.
But before they could be happy, a large number of zombies suddenly appeared, blocked the door and surrounded them.
Moreover, many zombies are of high level.
These zombies kept throwing superpowers at them. Even though most of the people in their team were very strong, they still couldn't avoid being hit and injured by the superpowers.
Chen Tian immediately confirmed that there were at least several level five and two level six zombies in this place. Each of them had special abilities and was very difficult to deal with.
If what he expected was correct, the seventh-level zombie was most likely a psychic type, which was why he could control the zombies so easily and make them act completely according to his instructions.
Moreover, the other party began to suppress these psychics through psychic powers even though they were still far away. Some psychics of lower levels were even affected, delaying the release of their powers.
Logically speaking, Chen Tian couldn't do anything that exceeded his own situation in the small world. But the situation was too dangerous, and he couldn't really put Bai Su in danger.
Just when Chen Tian was planning to use his spiritual sense to suppress the opponent, Mo Xiu on the side took action first.
Regardless of his own safety, he attacked the seventh-level zombie directly, successfully attracting the other side's attention.
The man next to him named Mu Tou didn't seem to expect Mo Xiu to do this. His usually calm face finally showed an anxious look, and he rushed out as well.
The people from Shanhe Base naturally had to go and help. Their team attracted the greatest firepower, and the rest was dealt with by Bai Su and Chen Tian.
The battle area between the two sides gradually widened. Although the pressure was reduced a lot and the students' union and the Flame Squad were strong, the number of zombies was too large, which greatly consumed their physical strength.
Chen Tian couldn't do anything too excessive without going beyond the control range of the small world, so he didn't do anything to attack from a lower dimension, but just ensured the safety of everyone in the team.
As for some minor injuries from normal combat, they are not a big deal for these people with special abilities.
Chen Tian, who has experienced countless worlds and is very good at being a hero and saving damsels, naturally and decisively pushed Bai Su away when he noticed a strength-type zombie holding a sharp piece of steel and attacking Bai Su, intending to take the attack for him.
Of course, Chen Tian had already calculated that the steel sheet might hurt him, but it would definitely not be fatal. The fireball condensed in his hand could also serve as a good buffer.
But from Bai Su's perspective, the steel plate was about to cut off Chen Tian's neck, and he instantly fell into extreme fear.
The author has something to say:
Chen Tian: You abuse me, you don’t love me anymore! QAQ
