God's Gift

"Ali!"

A call echoed in the tunnel. Shen Minghua was buried in the collapsed tunnel. Some moist and smelly soil entered his mouth. He dug out the soil above his head with difficulty, looking around for Ye Li's trace.

The two were together just now, but were forced to separate because of the tunnel collapse caused by the rat riot.

Shen Minghua didn't care about his own injuries and called Ye Li's name anxiously, "A Li, where are you?"

In the past, Shen Minghua could still remain calm in a more critical situation than the current one. But now, without knowing whether Ye Li was safe or not, he completely lost his composure.

The underground tunnels were intricate and there were countless tunnels under their feet. After the collapse, only a huge pit was left. He had no idea of ​​Ye Li's exact location.

The sound of rats running came from not far away. Judging from the dense footsteps, there were quite a few rats coming.

But now Shen Minghua had no time to care about it. He dug the soil off himself and climbed out of the collapse with difficulty. But before he could catch his breath, he turned around and continued digging the soil.

He didn't know where Ye Li was buried, perhaps right under his feet. He only knew that he had to seize every opportunity.

Dirt embedded in his nails, gravel scratched his palms, and bright red blood rubbed on the soil, emitting a slight smell of blood.

Sweat slid from Shen Minghua's forehead into his eyes, blurring his vision, but he still didn't dare to stop.

But after a long time, Shen Minghua still didn't see anything related to Ye Li.

If he was buried deeper underground, in such airtight soil, Ye Li would soon suffocate to death.

"A Li..." Shen Minghua did not dare to be distracted, and his hands moved much faster until his hands were covered in blood.

The giant rats sniffed the blood and found the cave-in where Shen Minghua was. The noisy grinding of teeth stopped Shen Minghua's movements. He turned his head and looked at the black mass of giant rats behind him, his eyes bloodshot.

"The damn thing."

If it weren't for them, Ye Li wouldn't have been buried.

Shen Minghua has always been a self-disciplined and polite person. This was the first time he had cursed. He stared at the giant rats and used his mental strength to suppress them.

The giant rats with lower mental power levels were quickly controlled by Shen Minghua. They became restless in the rat group and bit other giant rats.

The rat group soon became chaotic, with dozens of rats killing each other, making sharp screams, and the smell of blood instantly spread in the tunnel.

Most of these rats have reached A-level mental power, and a few are S-level. It is extremely difficult for Shen Minghua to control them all at the same time.

In their world, there are very few people with S-level psychics, and they are the best there.

But now in this disordered world, facing these endless and extremely powerful beasts, Shen Minghua realized his own insignificance time and time again.

At first he wanted to avoid direct conflict with these giant beasts as much as possible, but now these rats forced him to take action.

Soon, an S-class beast broke free from its restraints. Shen Minghua spat out a mouthful of blood and sat down on the ground, still staring at the beasts.

"Go to hell."

He seemed to have forgotten his mission here, and only wanted to fight to the death. He used up almost all his mental strength and forced the pressure forward again.

Blood flowed from his eyes, nose and mouth, but he remained unmoved and only wanted to kill the rats.

Before Shen Minghua's mental strength was exhausted, several gunshots rang out from behind him, knocking down the giant rat that was pouncing on Shen Minghua.

A new mental power covered Shen Minghua's mental power, adding layer by layer, and finally killed dozens of giant rats.

Shen Minghua seemed to realize something and turned around to look at the figure walking towards him from the darkness.

"A Li..."

The person who came supported Shen Minghua's body which was about to fall, and wiped the blood off his face with a tissue.

"A Li..."

His eyes were all on Ye Li who had rushed over. His vision gradually blurred, blood surged in his throat, and he could only call Ye Li's name twice before fainting.

-

Shen Minghua was awakened by the warm firelight. His eyes could only open a slit. The flickering flames swayed in his eyes, illuminating the dark tunnel.

His breathing was weak and he turned his head with difficulty to look. Ye Li was holding a needle in his hand and injecting medicine into his arm.

"What is this...?"

Just after saying a word, Shen Minghua started coughing violently again, and a fishy and sweet taste came from his throat.

Ye Li then realized that Shen Minghua had woken up. She slowly pushed all the medicine in the syringe into the syringe, and then answered Shen Minghua:

“It’s an antibiotic.”

"Youyou sent a message earlier that the bacteria carried by these rats can cause plague. You just came into contact with them and may be infected. I will give you an injection of antibiotics for prevention."

Shen Minghua had just woken up and didn't have much strength in his body. The depletion of mental power made his consciousness a little weak, but he still forced a smile.

"How come you even have these medicines?"

Ye Li stared at the corner of Shen Minghua's mouth, raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said in a cold voice: "Area E is not like Area S. It is dirty and chaotic. We are most often faced with various bacteria and viruses, so I always carry various medicines with me."

Feeling Ye Li's wiping motion, the curve of Shen Minghua's mouth deepened a little.

Ye Li looked at his smile and suddenly stopped.

Shen Minghua looked at Ye Li and finally noticed her anger. He sat up straight and said, "What's wrong? Why are you so angry?"

"Why did you forcibly expend your mental energy to kill those rats?"

When she arrived, the rats were already at the end of their strength. Even if Shen Minghua did not continue to attack them, they could not cause any trouble.

Ye Li could see clearly that Shen Minghua was clearly going to kill them all.
