Today marks the first week since Gu Li returned to China.
The Eleventh Army's military headquarters was as busy as ever, or rather, even busier, as the case concerning the Eleventh Army's collusion with a mysterious church had yet to yield results.
In the post-war darkness of Bellamy, countless survivors still await, and Bellamy, almost reduced to ruins, has become a no-man's land.
The nobles in the safe zone were like cats seeing mice. Knowing that they would waste a lot of effort in the 11th Army, they simply turned around and fought each other for benefits.
The 11th Army launched its first recruitment drive at this time, which mainly included recruitment from within schools and applications from outside schools.
For various reasons, the number of people signing up was so high that the event was incredibly popular.
Admirers and fans of Gu Li, admirers and fans of the various cadres, animal ear enthusiasts (namely, Sai and A), fans of Xiao Mianhua (Vivian and Levi openly recognized each other and cuddled), and some anonymous foreign enthusiasts (X) flocked over.
Everyone in the legion who could work was pulled out to do the work, even the high-level beings who had stayed in the alien city to retire were brought out to serve as labor.
The 11th Army's volunteer force almost overwhelmed the other army corps.
The once somewhat empty military building has become lively.
The city of aliens was unusually quiet. Everyone who could breathe and work had been sent out to work. Now, the only sign of life in the entire city was the castle hidden behind the statue.
The magnificent and ancient Gothic building is accompanied by a large garden and lawn. The statue standing in the center of the garden has been deliberately restored and is the classic image of Gu Li wearing a suit and shorts and holding a sword.
Even the most shameful statues become desensitizing after a while. At the top of the statue, Gu Li was already able to sit there without any emotion and gaze at the scenery.
Holding her lunch in one hand—a strawberry-flavored nutritional supplement—she absolutely adored He Wei and Eric; the taste was simply divine.
With his other hand behind him, his sky-blue eyes gazed at the dark starry sky in the distance, lost in thought. Killing Shirley was not as difficult or tragic as the outside world had speculated.
Rather, it would be more accurate to say that after obtaining parts of He Shiyi and Nicholas, it was only natural for her to defeat Sheri.
What kept her awake at night was the fear of seeing her companions fall one after another before her eyes.
Even now, He Shiyi still hasn't woken up.
Gu Li lowered her eyes, drank the nutrient solution in one gulp, spread her wings and flew towards the top of the castle, where a window stood open all alone on the top floor.
We welcomed her arrival.
The top floor is He Shiyi's bedroom. The first time she came, it was completely dark. Just fighting with He Shiyi took all her effort.
She landed silently on the carpet. It was an extremely spacious living room, with even a separate guest room and tea room.
The furnishings in the room were quite old, but judging from their luster, they had been well maintained by their owner.
Don't misunderstand, in the past week or so, Gu Liguang has been trying his best to help He Shiyi's wounds heal, and he has already expended a lot of effort.
He Shiyi, who had not yet regained his senses, cleaned them all himself.
Gu Li walked through the carpeted bedroom and into the living room. Sure enough, even shrunk, his still enormous body almost filled the entire living room.
But there was a space for a single sofa in the middle of the body.
From the mass of flesh with a clear tear in the middle, a tentacle wriggled out and poked the soft cushion of the single sofa, causing it to dent into a small dent.
Then, he used enthusiastic body language to invite Gu Li to sit down.
Gu Li stood in front of the living room door, looked at He Shiyi's big head which was squeezed flat by the ceiling, and wanted to laugh.
Her leather shoes trod on the blood and flesh scattered on the floor, which was shrouded in a faint mist, as she walked over and sat down in front of the single sofa.
A cup of tea was steadily brought over by another tentacle, still steaming slightly.
Gu Li readily accepted the cup and took a sip: "Are you done cleaning? We're going to start today's treatment."
The surrounding dark bodies seemed to tremble with a cheer, and the tentacles carrying all sorts of cleaning tools retracted from all directions.
Gu Li tilted her head to avoid the feather duster that almost hit her head, then casually pulled it out and placed it beside her leg, extending a hand towards him.
The tentacles hesitated for a moment, then carefully removed her glove from the cleanest one and placed their pointed tips on it.
Fortunately, they didn't fight again.
Gu Li looked at the object in her palm; it felt a bit like sticky rubber, with slightly bouncy tentacles. She closed her hand.
Rich, continuous starlight overflowed from her palm, lingered in the air for a moment, and then entered He Shiyi's body.
During this time, the monster that filled the room completely, like a big cat that had inhaled too much catnip, went limp.
His body collapsed, and the furniture beneath him groaned under the weight, but all of it carefully avoided hitting Gu Li, who was sitting in the middle.
The tentacles rolling on the ground intentionally or unintentionally squeezed towards her legs.
Then, it tentatively slid up the slender calf, happily rubbing against the black lines that were exposed in the middle of the calf.
Gu Li glanced at it; it seemed he was only interested in the mark-like things that had appeared on her calves because of He Shiyi's power.
She yawned, and surrounded by such a scene, Gu Li, who had been having nightmares for a week, fell asleep again without realizing it.
The starlight in my hand gradually faded away only after it had been exhausted once again.
The room was quiet for a while, as if sensing that Gu Li had fallen into a deep sleep, before the soft tentacles gently lifted her up and placed her on the newly made bed.
He Shiyi lingered reluctantly by the bedside for a while, but his ingrained gentlemanly instincts led him to leave the bedroom.
He appeared outside the bedroom window with his horribly scarred body, acting as a loyal guardian to prevent any threat from approaching.
Cen Xingbang, who had taken time out of his work at the legion to come back and check on things, pushed up his glasses: "It seems there's no need to get any closer. We're very likely to be killed by He Shiyi, who acts on instinct."
Despite the admiring looks from the others, Lan Meng, who was traveling with him, still managed to ask with difficulty, "Honestly, don't you guys feel like something's not quite right?"
Lancer fell silent for once, covering his lips as he looked at Levi and Eric with a look of confirmation.
The former had a serious expression, but his eyes revealed a sense of emptiness; there was no need to ask further.
He then looked at Eric, whose expression remained calm: "Don't we really need to do something?"
Eric gritted his teeth slightly, turned and left: "No need, unless you want to fight He Shiyi."
"He won't do anything to Miss Gu Li."
At most, they just have ulterior motives.
