Chapter 196
That was... the voice of the little fox.
At this moment, Yu Tu looked back suddenly. There was nothing in the narrow crack behind him, only a black void.
"Senior Buyehou!!!"
Yu Tu heard Gu Hongying calling him, and the black void seemed to be chasing him. He raised his hand and severed the connection between himself and the Gate of Void. The narrow crack closed and disappeared into thin air.
The void coordinates located by the fragments of the town tower and the fox mask are now completely undetectable. That coordinate has disappeared forever in time.
This time, not only did he use up all the stored energy, but he also owed several foreign debts. Now Yu Tu can't even repair the injured parts because he doesn't have enough energy.
The original body rushed to the side of the Nevernight Marquis as soon as he came out of the void gate. The excessive energy consumption caused the perception to be unable to extend, and the intensity of consciousness could only be transferred at a close distance.
Looking at Buyehou from the perspective of the original body, he has never been so ferocious. There are wounds all over his body, even his cheek is cut, and there is a large dark red patch on his dark green robe. There are claw marks from the right shoulder to the heart, and it is a bloody mess.
When Yu Tu made contact, he transferred most of his consciousness to the original body, because the more consciousness remained in Buyehou's body, the clearer the pain perception of the wound would be.
After most of his consciousness was transferred, the pain weakened, but the Buyehou, who was already in a bad condition, looked even paler. He lowered his eyes and leaned on the main body, feeling more weak.
Yu Tu held onto the cold vest and wanted to cry, he even wanted to close his eyes and faint with the vest - but he couldn't faint now.
Five unconscious wounded soldiers plus his battle-damaged vest, five people have to take care of six people. If he can't bear it now, it will become four people taking care of seven.
Gu Hongying has already sent out a distress signal. They are currently in Qiulin City. The special task force members near Qiulin City who received their distress message will rush over to help. After all, they have been in the hands of the Fallen Nine-Tailed Fox, and no one knows what's wrong with them. They must go to the hospital under the name of the Alien Bureau for examination before they can be assured.
The location of the Void Gate was quite remote and deserted for a while. They waited here for three hours before a dusty black armored vehicle arrived. This time it was the Special Forces Group 9, who were old acquaintances of theirs.
As soon as the door of the black armored vehicle opened, Tu Jiaojiao, whose hair was bright orange on both sides, got out first. The nine groups of members behind him rushed out and quickly helped Gu Hongying and the others carry all the injured into the car.
When it was Buyehou's turn, Yu Tu whispered, "I can do it, no need for help."
He is the only one who knows where the wound on his vest is. If he gives it to someone else to move, and someone touches and pokes it a few times...wouldn't that hurt even more!
Yu Tu got into the car half-folded with his vest on. It seemed that the black armored vehicle had temporarily opened up folding space with an expansion talisman, which was enough to accommodate all of them.
After moving everyone into the car, Tu Jiaojiao looked at Gu Hongying's wrinkled brows, patted his shoulder and said jokingly: "I say, Yingying, don't be so nervous, their situation is not as bad as you think———"
The deputy team leader Lan Huiyu next to him gave him an elbow, forcing him to hold back the words he had not yet finished.
Gu Hongying was feeling worried, and he seemed to hear the leader of the Special Group 9 calling him "Yingying". Gu Hongying couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body. Even though his parents were also members of the Special Group, and the other people in the Special Group were his elders, but calling him by the same name... he still felt weird.
"Team Tu, why don't you just call me Gu Hongying?"
Lan Huiyu glanced at their unreliable team leader secretly, and felt that his feathers were about to lose their luster because of his anger: "Hongying, our team leader was joking with you. Don't worry, Deputy Team Leader Gu and the others will be fine."
Tu Jiaojiao also realized that he had said the wrong thing.
Their group nine went on a long mission some time ago. After they came back, the members of group eight threw a thick stack of information at them and took them to a closed space full of talismans and formations before allowing them to watch. The things involved in the space surprised even this self-proclaimed 5G surfer Xuanfeng - there was actually a comic book that simultaneously recorded what happened in the outer world, and the comic book also had a protagonist, who was Gu Hongying, the son of group Huo and deputy group Gu from the special group one. His nickname was "Tongzai" and readers gave him the nickname "Yingying".
Tu Jiaojiao: “…”
Strange things happen all the time, but this one is the most special.
Xiao Shengan, the leader of Group 8, was also in this closed space. Seeing Tu Jiaojiao's shocked expression, he knocked on the table and said, "Old Tu, apart from Director Jiang, only a few people in charge of the Alien Reunion Division and the first ten groups of the Special Group have seen this information. After you leave here, try not to mention it outside. Once you cross the line, you will be forced to forget it easily."
With Group 8 as the main team and Group 6 as the auxiliary team, they spent a lot of effort to figure out most of the contents of this comic update. Due to some unspeakable reasons and to protect the safety of the "protagonist", they discussed and unanimously decided not to let anyone in the Alien Bureau know about the comic for the time being.
After reading the information, Tu Jiaojiao became extremely curious about Gu Hongying, whom he had dealt with several times before. If Lan Huiyu had not pulled him aside, he would have taken advantage of the rare break time to drive to meet the "protagonist".
Lan Huiyu wouldn't let him go, and Tu Jiaojiao laughed wildly with great regret and wickedness: "Ah Yu, I dare not imagine if this comic is exposed in the inner world one day, will the children of the Huo Zu family dig a hole in the ground and bury themselves in it? Hahahahaha———"
Bai Ling, who was sitting next to Tu Jiaojiao, blocked his mouth with food helplessly: "Forget it, Team Leader. You are so old and still like to watch the fun of children."
Not long after this incident, they received a distress signal after completing their mission. When they loaded the distress message, they found that it was sent by Gu Hongying.
Tu Jiaojiao, who was enjoying the excitement, got excited and blurted out the nickname that a reader had given to Gu Hongying that he had seen in the information.
Gu Hongying was fooled by Lan Huiyu's explanation, but Yu Tu was not. While adjusting his posture so that the vest would rest on his shoulder without causing any injury, Yu Tu knew very well that although comics had limitations, the Alien Bureau was not a pushover either, and exploiting loopholes in the rules was what humans were best at.
The armored vehicle of Group 9 took them to the exclusive hospital of the Tyumen City Abnormal Affairs Bureau. They had made contacts in advance, so as soon as they got off the car, medical staff rushed over and took all the injured away for examination.
Yu Tu and a few others were also taken away. Apart from being a little tired from running, they had no injuries. They were taken away mainly for record keeping. After all, they escaped unscathed from the high-risk monster that almost got the special team killed. It was quite rare. It was reasonable for them to understand what had happened.
Yu Tu was multitasking, answering Deputy Team Leader Lan's questions on one hand, and sensing the status of the vest on the other. The damage caused by the monster could not be cured by healing techniques or spells. At most, it could only temporarily alleviate the pain. To put it in simple terms, the injury would have to be healed slowly.
Yu Tu: “…”
He decided to take on two jobs after returning and earn some energy to heal his wounds first. Spiritual power cannot heal the wounds caused by monsters, but energy can.
After confirming the situation on the vest side, Yu Tu focused more on his own side. Deputy Team Leader Lan asked very detailed questions and he had to answer them seriously. He didn't want to confuse the situations encountered by the vest and the original body when answering.
By the time he finished recording, it was already dark. Yu Tu asked the medical staff for directions and turned to the ward. Buye Hou was lying on the bed in the ward with a unhappy look on his face.
In order to reduce the pain, Yu Tu had extracted most of the consciousness in Buyehou's body, causing Buyehou's reactions to be a little slow and dull. This was reflected in the fact that he was not very familiar with the high-tech products in the ward and did not have much interest in them.
Yu Tu wiped a sweat in his heart, now he has really become an antique.
The Marquis of Buye's perception was still limited, so Yu Tu could only transfer his consciousness through skin touch. The wound was not so painful after being treated, and he could accept it when his consciousness was transferred back. Yu Tu transferred part of his consciousness and returned to the previous balanced state of multitasking.
Special Team 9 has contacted Miller in the name of the Alien Bureau and explained their situation. People who have been attacked by monsters will have a 24-hour observation period to ensure that there are no residual problems that have not been discovered.
The room arranged for them by the hospital under the name of the Foreign Affairs Bureau was quite luxurious. In addition to the hospital bed, there was also a spacious bed for accompanying the patient. Yu Tu simply tidied himself up, fell on the bed, and fell into a deep sleep.
He had originally planned to let the vest and the original body guard the first half of the night and the second half respectively, but perhaps they were too tired. Not long after the original body fell into a deep sleep, the vest's eyelashes trembled and he fell into a deep sleep soon after.
After getting his mother's medical report, Gu Hongying went to Buyehou's ward and knocked on the door to express his gratitude. After knocking for a long time, no one answered. He was so scared that he thought something had happened inside and almost broke in.
When he hurriedly opened the door with the spare key and saw the two of them sleeping soundly in bed, all the worries in Gu Hongying's heart turned into laughter and tears. He muttered softly: "I was almost scared to death..."
Gu Hongying tucked the quilt in for Yu Tu and looked at the similar sleeping faces on the two beds. The smile on his face gradually faded and he sighed softly.
Yu Tu's silence, his powerlessness in the face of the strange beast, the injuries of the former Marquis Buye... Gu Hongying was not a heartless person, he saw everything and kept it in mind.
His index finger stroked the tip of his thumb, where the four small blood holes had already scabbed over and were a little uneven.
He is still too weak, Gu Hongying thought.
If he was strong enough to deal with the monsters by himself, there wouldn't be so many problems.
Also, today during the day, Senior Buyehou and the little fox said that he was "Bai Ze".
Shirazawa...what does it mean?
Gu Hongying returned to his mother's ward while deep in thought. He tossed and turned on the accompanying bed, unable to fall asleep.
He squinted his eyes and thought that he had to become strong, strong enough to solve all problems, so that no one would be hurt because of him again.
His thoughts seemed to affect his spiritual power. The metallic spiritual power was externalized on his skin, making him look like a shining little golden man. Gu Hongying raised his hand, and a metal cone as long as a human arm appeared in his palm, which looked a bit like a chisel. This was the spiritual power externalization form he was most familiar with—all thanks to the experience accumulated when cutting ice chains.
However, the metal cone was only two palms long before, but now it is twice as long, which proves that he has made progress!
Gu Hongying happily patted the nursing bed beneath him. The bed was made of metal and was directly changed in shape after being hit by his spiritual power.
Gu Hongying: “!!!”
He hurriedly input his spiritual power, trying to restore the metal bed to its original shape like kneading plasticine, but the more anxious he was, the easier it was to make mistakes. The shape of the bed became more and more distorted, and finally it was like two halves of a metal clam, trapping Gu Hongying inside with a "clang".
Gu Hongying, who had been used as a sandwich along with the quilt, said: "..."
He continued to output spiritual power without giving up, and the "clam shell" became tighter and tighter, causing the last bit of spiritual power to be exhausted. In the process, it also deformed, blocking his way out.
Gu Hongying: “…”
Okay.
He adjusted himself into a slightly more comfortable position in the narrow space, and prepared to sleep like that.
Where a man falls, there he lies down.
Today’s work will be finished tomorrow.
