Chapter 19

After exchanging the signal number, the two walked out from the corner.

The people waiting there all restrained their expressions. When they approached, Shi Yjiang took the initiative to step forward and patted Su Ci on the shoulder.

"Su Ci, I'm sorry for what happened just now!"

He smiled and said, "Captain Yan is right. Even if you can't pass the trainee period of the breeder in the future, you can try other positions. If you are interested in the work of the logistics department, I can recommend you."

Capable people are welcome everywhere.

Although Su Ci is thin and his physical fitness should not be very good, the transportation of materials is basically completed by robots, and he does not need to do physical work. His calm mind when facing danger is very rare.

Shi Yjiang felt that if Captain Yan's guess was true, the base would probably not be peaceful in the future.

If there was a teammate like Su Ci, at least when encountering the giant spider, there would be no need to worry about him being a drag, and he could still lend a hand at the critical moment.

As for physical fitness? Then practice!

Hearing Shi Yjiang's words, Yan Ping's expression was a little strange, but she didn't expect that even Sun Si was not willing to be outdone.

She leaned forward and squeezed Shi Yjiang away.

Sun Si said to Su Ci: "I didn't expect that you look so weak, but you are so brave. If you need anything, I can help talk to the administrative department."

Only Xia Jingming, listening to Shi Yjiang and Sun Si change their words, and even the immobile Luo Shengfei nodded in agreement, his face turned a little ugly.

He didn't think there was anything wrong with his suspicion. This keeper was suspicious to begin with, but he had no evidence to prove that he had any problems.

What's more, Captain Yan had just spoken...

He could only curl his lips and smile, "Haha, there's nothing we can do about this in the institute. People without professional skills can't get in."

When Xia Jingming said this, Su Ci didn't say anything, but the others frowned.

Why does this sound so harsh?

Even Number One couldn't help but glare at Xia Jingming. Although he didn't want the keeper to leave the nursery, he also didn't want anyone to treat the keeper badly.

He felt that the adults in this institute had bad intentions towards the keeper.

Just at this moment, the rain outside suddenly stopped.

Just as suddenly as the rain began to fall, after the sound of the rain stopped, the blood-red mist in the sky quickly dispersed, and the soft light illuminated the earth again.

The red mist that permeated the entire base also disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving only blood-red rain full of high-concentration pollutants.

The sounds of fighting from time to time from outside also gradually subsided.

Survived...

Everyone couldn't help but feel such emotion in their hearts, and they forgot their unhappiness just now. Looking at the bright sky outside, everyone finally felt that they were safe again.

At this time, Yan Ping's communicator rang, and he didn't know who he was talking to after answering the call.

He set the privacy mode so that others could not hear what they were talking about. However, judging from his obviously relaxed brow, he must have received good news.

The team members sent by Yan Ping to check the logistics building also returned one after another. They did not find anything unusual in the building, and no one from the logistics staff hiding in the underground warehouse and office was injured.

After the fog dissipated, several members of the logistics department followed them to the first floor. When they saw the miserable state of the hall and Luo Shengfei, they all turned pale and felt fear.

"Shitou, are you okay?"

"How did Xiaofei get hurt so badly? We need to send him to the medical purification department!"

Several people gathered around, saw Luo Shengfei's injuries clearly, and quickly called for a suspended stretcher, then carefully transferred him to the stretcher, preparing to send him to the medical purification department for treatment.

"Captain Yan, do you want to go together?" Shi Yjiang asked.

Yan Ping shook his head, "We still have to finish up, and the red mist will dissipate after the rain stops. It shouldn't be dangerous for you to go now."

Of course, for safety reasons, Yan Ping still left Guan Zhishu to accompany him. Finally, he took another look at where Su Ci and No. 1 might be, and then he led the team members away quickly.

Su Ci was going to the medical department to pick someone up, so he followed Guan Zhishu and others to leave the logistics department building.

As soon as he left the building, he saw the floating bus that brought them here from a distance. The windows were broken, glass fragments were scattered all over, and the body of the bus was pierced by something sharp, leaving two nasty holes on the roof and side of the bus.

Judging from the diameter, it looks a bit like the forelimbs of the giant spider.

"Ouch!"

Suddenly, a scream came from behind, and everyone looked back and saw that Xia Jingming, who was walking at the end, somehow tripped and fell when he was going down the stairs.

The bloody rain had just ended, and the ground was full of water. He was soaked by the fall.

Not sure if it was due to the high concentration of pollutants, he was swearing angrily, yelling that someone pushed him. Everyone frowned, stepped back, and kept a distance from him.

Su Ci raised his eyebrows and looked down at the little guy beside him.

Number One, who had just flashed back, had his hands behind his back and looked innocent. Fortunately, the keeper was not angry. He glanced at him and then looked away.

Number One turned his head to look at the wolf-like Xia Jingming, snorted softly, then stretched out his short legs and followed Su Ci closely, like a cute little tail.

-The

group took the teleportation platform and came to the medical purification area.

The rain had just stopped, and the injured were sent here one after another. The medical purification area was crowded with people. Fortunately, there were guards maintaining order, so there was no chaos.

Today's bloody rain came suddenly. When the monsters invaded, a maintenance team was checking equipment outdoors and happened to run into them.

Fortunately, the action team arrived in time and escorted them to escape into the building successfully, thus escaping the disaster. Although several people were seriously injured, no one died.

People with more serious injuries like Luo Shengfei were sent directly to the medical cabin for treatment, while those with minor injuries stayed in the ward and waited in line.

In addition to these injured people, there were people like Sun Si who came to receive purification treatment because of high pollution values ​​after being exposed to the blood rain.

Among these people, only Su Ci came to pick up the cubs, but he was still taken to the purification floor.

It was at this time that Su Ci finally understood that the Medical Purification Department actually referred to two places, and Gu Qingchen, who contacted him yesterday, was the doctor and purifier here.

"Doctor Gu, why is it that I took strict protective measures and did not encounter the blood rain, but the pollution level is higher than that of the new breeder Su?"

In the purification room, facing Sun Si's question, Gu Qingchen pushed his glasses and said indifferently: "Everyone has a different physique and different tolerance to pollutants."

Hearing this, Sun Si suddenly became nervous. She had actually just started working not long ago and had never heard of the term "tolerance to pollutants" before.

"So my tolerance to pollutants is relatively low? Is there any way to improve it? Is low tolerance harmful?"

She asked anxiously, obviously in a state of anxiety.

"Don't be nervous."

Gu Qingchen put his medical-gloved hand on the back of Sun Si's hand, and a ball of white light lit up from under his palm. It was a very light, but it gave people a sense of peace and holiness.

As the light merged into his skin, Sun Si's mood unconsciously relaxed, and the impatience on his face also dissipated.

"As long as you come to purify in time, there will generally be no problems except for some mood swings. Moreover, low tolerance is not entirely a bad thing..."

Gu Qingchen's voice was calm and gentle, reassuring. It was just that the last sentence was spoken in a low voice, and Sun Si, who was close by, did not hear it clearly. Su Ci, who was sitting in the waiting area, could not help but look over here.

"What is a purifier?" Su Ci looked at Shi Yjiang and asked.

Shi Yjiang explained to him.

A purifier is someone who can purify pollutants - that is, those blood-red particles in the blood rain.

It was because of the appearance of the purifier that the Hell Star Guards had the confidence to fight against the pollutants of the Hell Star, and greatly reduced casualties in the process of fighting against the red mist and monsters.

Su Ci nodded, "So the ability of the purifier appears along with the red mist?"

Hearing this, Shi Yjiang couldn't help but pause.

This is actually a semi-public secret. Many people know it, but no one will announce it, especially to the new members of the base, because they are worried about accidents, so they will not take the initiative to tell.

Shi Yjiang hesitated. Xia Jingming, who had changed his clothes but still had wet hair, sneered and said, "Yes, the ability of the purifier only appeared after arriving at Hell Star."

"The longer the contact time with pollutants, the higher the pollution value on the body, and the easier it is to stimulate the potential of the blood and awaken superpowers."

"Many members of the action team have ordinary blood and cannot even transform into beasts. However, they have gained powerful strength because of their awakened superpowers."

Xia Jingming looked at Su Ci with an instigating tone, "Keeper Su, your tolerance to pollutants seems to be quite high. You can give it a try if you are interested."

Shi Yjiang's brows were twisted into knots. He didn't understand why Xia Jingming was so dissatisfied with Su Ci and even wanted to trick him like this. After Xia Jingming finished speaking, he quickly added: "Although there is indeed a chance of awakening superpowers, the chance is very small."

"Most people will develop symptoms of madness or even organ abnormalities after long-term exposure to pollutants. This change is irreversible and can be life-threatening in severe cases."

"So, we should still follow the base's safety rules and come to the doctor regularly for purification. Health and life are more important."

Su Ci nodded. So, Captain Yan Ping's "Eye of Truth" was also obtained in the red mist?

This is interesting.

The essence of the red mist is a collection of a variety of distorted, negative energy auras, or it is more appropriate to call it resentment.

Gaining supernatural powers under the stimulation of resentment is similar to the path of magic cultivation. Although you can quickly improve your strength in the short term, the negative energy that remains in your body will become the biggest obstacle on the road of cultivation.

However, nothing is absolute, and Yan Ping is an example.

There is also Gu Qingchen in the purification room. Under the stimulation of red mist, he gained the ability to purify resentment. This is probably related to his own personality and will, right?

Xia Jingming, who was standing next to him, looked ugly after Shi Yjiang spoke, but he did not refute. Even if he disliked Su Ci, he would not continue to instigate him at the risk of being punished.

Soon, after Sun Si and Xia Jingming finished the purification, it was Su Ci's turn.

"You are the new breeder?"

Gu Qingchen looked at Su Ci's face and smiled, "You are really good-looking."

The doctor in front of him was about thirty years old, younger than Yan Ping. He was wearing a snow-white uniform and square gold-rimmed glasses, and he was very gentle.

Su Ci nodded at him, and followed the actions of others to extend his hand, while the other hand quietly held the little hand of No. 1.

No. 1 looked at him curiously and did not resist.

"Trouble you." Su Ci said.

Gu Qingchen smiled, "No trouble, this is what I should do."

The people who came today had relatively low pollution values, and Su Ci's value was only 15, which was easy for him.

He began to release the purification energy, placing the ball of light on the back of Su Ci's hand.

However, as time went by, the warm and gentle smile on the face of this purification master gradually froze.

Huh? What's going on?

The energy he released now is enough to help purify two or three Sun Si to the same level, so why hasn't this low-pollution Su Ci finished yet?
