Chapter 168 Battle
The energy consumed during the day's healing was not too great for Yu Zhi's body, but it was a significant drain on her energy.
To "detect" the status of each extraordinary person, she had to expend the mental energy that had gradually accumulated after her evolution.
After many times of long-distance comfort, his temples began to swell as if he had overused his brain.
So Yu Zhi washed up and went to bed early.
Just when my consciousness was a little fuzzy, a hot body pressed against my back.
The other person seemed to lower his head and kissed her cheek softly and tenderly.
Then his long, strong arms wrapped around her waist, bringing her into a comfortable position.
Yu Zhi subconsciously turned her head and rubbed it twice. She quickly recognized it due to physiological familiarity, allowing her to continue to sleep peacefully.
But suddenly, there seemed to be another person lying in front.
At a distance of about an arm's length, Sheng Jiayi could only watch with jealousy and helplessness as the girl was embraced in Qiao Zhiyu's arms.
She just nestled there comfortably, looking so petite and cute.
Qiao Zhiyu held her tightly in his arms, and if Sheng Jiayi wanted to get closer, he would inevitably run into his own brother.
Of course, he had no desire to sleep next to someone of the same sex, even if it was Brother Yu.
Sheng Jiayi could only find an opportunity to hold the girl's outstretched hand in a wronged manner, and only then did he feel a little more of his existence.
But the whole body still feels empty.
It kept him awake for a long time.
I can only look at the peaceful and pretty sleeping face in front of me quietly and longingly in the darkness.
Of course, he automatically ignored the other face behind the girl, which was a head taller than her.
I don’t know how long it took.
The two people in front of me seemed to be slightly separated because they were both fast asleep.
Sheng Jiayi had an idea in his mind.
He felt like a thief hiding in a dark corner, and could only do something when others were not paying attention.
After waiting patiently for a while, finally——
Yu Zhi turned over and completely broke away from Qiao Zhiyu's arms.
Sheng Jiayi's face lit up with joy, and he hurried forward, pretending to be a girl and throwing himself into his arms.
Now I can finally fall asleep contentedly.
*
The third day on Jilan Star.
It was still light outside, and Sheng Jiayi had only been asleep for three hours.
The extraordinary people on guard suddenly shouted warnings from far away.
"A wave of strange beasts is approaching!"
"Prepare for battle! Prepare for battle!"
"We need more manpower in the southwest!"
The cadets who were still sleeping in the tent were suddenly awakened.
Sheng Jiayi's face still showed resentment for having his sweet dream disturbed, but he did not slow down at all in putting on his combat uniform.
Only then did Qiao Zhiyu realize that Xiao Zhi, who was originally in his arms, had moved to the other side at some point.
It must be that kid Sheng Jiayi who did this!
His eyes were like a knife that cut through the other person, but the timing was not right.
Yu Zhi also quickly put on her clothes.
Her intuition told her that the situation she would face today would probably be more serious than yesterday, and it was bound to be a fierce battle.
And the role she can play in this is naturally huge.
After a night of rest and recovery, Yu Zhi's mind is now clear.
Her recovery speed also seems to have greatly improved after evolving.
By the time the healers gathered at the designated location, the extraordinary people had already taken up their positions in the hollow areas of each defense line.
Xie Wenyu and Shen Wang returned to the central area and stayed by Yu Zhi's side.
Looking at the faint bloodshot in the two men's eyes, Yu Zhi couldn't help but give them a distressed look.
She held their hands separately, trying her best to help them relieve some of their physical fatigue.
The other healers nearby were also comforting the people in their team who were in charge of the night watch last night.
"How many alien beasts are there in this batch?" Yu Zhi asked Xie Wenyu in a low voice.
Xie Wenyu didn't look relaxed. "There are at least twice as many as yesterday, and there are quite a few high-level exotic beasts among them."
But the situation has not yet reached the worst point, and it is not his style to be afraid before the battle.
"Zhizhi, you might have to work harder today." Xie Wenyu tied up Yu Zhi's hair, his tone gentle but firm, "But if anything unexpected happens, you must prioritize protecting yourself."
Yu Zhi understood what he meant.
After her talent level was revealed, the Federation was not really so careless as to allow her to participate in the competition without any protection.
With the unanimous consent of the highest leaders of the Federation and the Empire, Yu Zhi was allowed to bring an intelligent guard into the arena.
Out of some careful consideration, she deliberately brought the one that Wei Yuan gave her on her birthday.
This is naturally a confidential matter.
It was originally just a safeguard to prevent her from getting hurt in the natural environment or being accidentally hurt by cadets, which was a bit of a waste of talent.
Who knew that in the current situation, it might actually come in handy.
There was movement outside.
Mixed with the roars of many strange beasts and the sounds of fighting.
A faint smell of blood began to permeate the air.
The healers' performance has improved greatly compared to yesterday.
Several A-level healers were panic-stricken and shaking like sieves at the beginning, but today they can stand here steadily with firm eyes and tight mouths.
This is also inseparable from Xie Wensheng's strong ability to comfort and coordinate.
Yesterday's healing work was basically carried out in an orderly manner under her organization.
Yu Zhi suspected that every member of the Xie family might be a natural leader and commander.
Xie Wensheng also took advantage of the fact that she was not particularly busy and came over to confirm with her, "Xiao Zhi, are you still responsible for the overall remote control today? We will be responsible for the extraordinary people who are withdrawn."
"Yes, no problem." Yu Zhi nodded.
She could feel that her abilities were becoming more proficient with constant use.
The mental force was like a big net, spreading out from the center of the camp, covering every cadet.
She doesn't need to heal yet.
As the battle time increased, Yu Zhi could notice that the conditions of many extraordinary people began to decline.
Seeing this, healing energy spread along the spiritual network and was accurately delivered into the body of the extraordinary person.
Almost instantly, the extraordinary person who received the healing returned to his peak state again -
This is the strategic role of a high-level healer.
But she will not heal every extraordinary person who is exhausted.
Instead, they focused on taking care of the places that had not yet been filled to prevent the defense line from being breached.
As for the several checkpoints that can be rotated normally, the extraordinary people will be withdrawn normally and then comforted by the healer team led by Xie Wensheng.
In this way, they managed to withstand wave after wave of attacks from the alien beasts and even had a brief respite.
However, just as the cadets were becoming more optimistic.
Suddenly, in the distant sky, there was a sound of stirred wind.
Chen Wang's expression became serious.
The Jade Chi took off into the air ahead of time, which was also a signal to other flying spirits.
