"Sigh... I'll be honest with you. I've taken a look at the data you sent me, and based on what I know, this girl doesn't meet the minimum assessment criteria for experimental data in any way. She... she's very likely not going to live long..."
Wu Jie found it hard to accept for a moment. A young girl, without family or friends, was conducting cold experiments in a gloomy basement. He knew very well that sacrificing one person to save ten thousand people sounded like a great thing.
However, when life is really about to end, when one has not had the chance to taste the sweetness of life, but has to wither away in darkness and return to nothingness forever, who would have thought that that life also longs to stroll in the forests and fields under the sunshine, and freely feel the touch and warmth brought by the colorful world like a rainbow?
Wu Jie is not a saint. He knows that his abilities are limited and he cannot save all the lives that can be saved. He just doesn't want to watch a life pass away before his eyes. Moreover, it is just a child who will wither away forever in a cold laboratory before he has time to grow up.
"Is there no way to save her?" Wu Jie asked these words almost gritting his teeth.
The person on the other end of the radio replied, "That's why I asked you to bring her back to the base. Based on the information you sent back, she might still be saved."
When Wu Jie heard this, he smiled and said, "Thank you, Chief Su. It seems that mankind has not lost hope yet."
Susan was stunned. She didn't expect Wu Jie to suddenly say thank you. When she heard what Wu Jie said next, she immediately reacted.
"Oh, do you know why I didn't participate in the No Return Bird Project?" Her tone was so distant and profound.
"Speaking."
"Because I don't want to go through such a sinful experience again. Every morning when I wake up, I can hear those children wailing in pain. They stretch out their hands to me in despair and beg me to save them. When I wash my face, I always see my hands covered in blood that I can't wash off. I have thought about suicide many times, but I control myself because I don't want there to be more victims. At least, not in front of me anymore, even though I know that what I am doing is for all mankind... I have changed my mind now. There must be a better way to save humanity!..."
Wu Jie understood that Susan was probably talking about the Origin Project, the core of the War Dance. It was said that at the beginning of the Origin Project, in order to ensure the smooth progress of the experiment, although the experiment was approved by the volunteers, many lives were lost during the experiment. He also understood the weight of Susan's words, because this weight was accumulated with the lives...
"I suddenly understand now why you would dress up for me. Thank you, Chief Su. I am lucky to know you. I will definitely bring this girl back to the base safely! Chief Su, your idea is exactly the same as mine. I will also take a completely different path to save mankind." Wu Jie closed his eyes and said gently, his tone full of gratitude.
…
After hanging up the radio, I turned around and looked at the other two guys with tearful eyes.
"Commander... Wow... I'm so lucky to know you!" Boa cried and threw herself into Wu's arms.
"Sir... I, I don't know what to say. From today on, your life is my life. Wherever you are, I will be there!" Xila's eyes were red. She obviously couldn't help crying but she still forced herself not to let it out. She tried hard to maintain the image of a soldier.
"you……"
Wu Jie had never imagined that an unexpected radio call would trigger such a significant butterfly effect. Perhaps from today on, my life will have a new meaning...
The next day...
In the morning sunshine, even the birds on the treetops became excited. Without the war between Aurora Beasts and humans, nature became calm and peaceful.
Five transport planes carrying a large number of personnel slowly arrived at the landing point of the power plant and began to change guards and exchange personnel.
"Huh? What is this?" the replacement officer asked, pointing to a huge cylinder wrapped in black cloth.
As the commander, Wu Jie had no choice but to explain, "This is the equipment our Suzaku War Dance Troupe uses to fight the siege. After all, there are too many Aurora Beasts in the power plant, and it's a bit too much for just a few of us to handle, so we need some tricks."
"So that's how it is. Okay then, let him go."
Because the container was too large, it would take up a lot of space just to fit Wu Jie's entire team and the jeep, so two transport planes were used to transport it.
"Did you bring the cube?" Wu Jie asked on the plane.
"Don't worry, sir, it's in my bag." Cecilia said confidently, showing her white teeth.
--------Dividing line--------
"It's incredible. You actually killed half a column of Aurora Beasts. Not only did you retook the power plant, but you also successfully completed the task assigned to you by Susan." Mingxi looked at the mission briefing in disbelief, and checked the mission recorder with some disbelief. After confirming that everything was correct, he said this.
Standing in the commander's office, Wu Jie was waiting for the commander to give him new tasks.
"According to the group rules, you have exceeded your mission targets this time. Your team can be given two days off."
"Got it!" Wu Jie saluted with a smile on his face.
"I can't believe you killed so many Auroramon without any reinforcements. If it weren't for the recorder, I would have suspected you were lying. Tell me, why didn't you call for reinforcements? You can call for reinforcements in this situation, but don't do this again. After all, you only have one life."
Unexpectedly, Mingxi was so understanding and cared deeply about the safety of his subordinates. Wu Jie felt warm in his heart: "Senior sister is so kind. I feel completely at ease working under you."
"Stop talking nonsense and tell me! Why didn't you call for help?"
"Oh, isn't it because Senior took special care of me in school? For example, she helped me line up in the cafeteria, copied my homework for me, and even covered for me with the teacher so that I could go back and look after my sister."
"You bastard!" The captain's face flushed instantly. He hadn't expected this bastard to still remember all this! It seemed his friendship with this guy hadn't been in vain. So he raised his hand, pretending to hit him.
"Oh! Senior, you can't hit me now. You're a war dancer. If you hit me with that punch, someone will definitely die!"
As if he was really worried about something happening, Mingxi retracted his boxer.
But the next words immediately made Wu Jie tuck his tail between his legs.
"Also, what's going on with that girl I brought back? Don't think I don't know!"
"Ah this!" Wu Jie was suddenly speechless.
