Byron's Blade

At the gate of the military hospital, the guarding soldiers, including the military doctor Alita, were watching in amazement that the god of war Mu Li, who was wearing a hospital uniform, was helping the female rebel who had just arrived to treat the wound on her waist.Disinfection, anesthesia injections, stitches, and bandages are amazingly skillful.The wound was healed in less than 10 minutes.

Mu Li washed his hands in the basin brought by Dora, then untied the military badge hanging around his neck, handed it to Dora and said:

"Your mother has lost a lot of blood. You take my military badge and go with the doctor's sister to the hospital cafeteria and bring some red dates. Remember, don't make a fuss, and don't take too much."

After all, he said to Alita again: "Alita, please."

"It's okay, but there may not be red dates, this thing is very rare."

"If not, as long as it is something that replenishes blood."

"Why do you need to eat these things for blood replenishment? The effect is too slow. I can prescribe blood supplements again, but even I can't prescribe too much of this thing, because you are the only one taking it, and you can take up to five tubes." Alita said.

So there is such a thing as a blood tonic?Mu Li sweated a little.

"Then trouble you, she really lost too much blood, and she needs to replenish blood as soon as possible." Originally, Mu Li wanted to have a blood transfusion, but it was impossible, because Mu Li himself didn't need blood transfusion, and he couldn't get blood at the pharmacy. .But she didn't expect that such things as blood tonics appeared in this era, and it seems that blood transfusions have been eliminated.

Dora hung the general card back on Mu Li's neck, then took a step back, knelt down, and kowtowed deeply to Mu Li.

"Benefactor, there is no way to repay your life-saving grace!"

Mu Li helped her up, smiled lightly and said:

"You kneel down, I accept it. Don't call me a benefactor from now on. I have a first name and a last name. My name is Mu Li."

"...I'm sorry...I'm sorry..." Dora cried again.

"Don't cry, everything will pass." Mu Li smiled at her, and reached out to touch her head.

The traitors around who witnessed Mu Li's rescue now rushed forward one after another, scrambling to kneel down to the ground, bowing their heads to Mu Li, crying:

"God, save my child..."

"Praise the true God of life, please save my father!"

"Help me, my leg...my leg is broken..."

"..."

Mu Li hastily spread his arms and pressed down, sinking into his dantian, and said loudly:

"Don't worry, come one by one, serious emergencies first, minor injuries later, please be considerate to each other."

With armed soldiers suppressing them all around, these rebels certainly didn't dare to make too much noise, and they obeyed what Mu Li said.With the help of Dora, Mu Li sorted all the traitors present according to the severity of their injuries, and then began to treat them one by one.So one after another, the bandaging of the last patient was over, and an afternoon had already been spent.After she was sweating profusely, she realized that it was already past six o'clock in the evening, and it was already dark.

At the entrance of the hospital building, many wounded patients and medical staff in hospital gowns gathered, all watching the excitement here.Mu Li was still injured. He had been working all afternoon, squatting or bending over to work. He was exhausted and needed a rest urgently.She didn't care about the gazes around her, she just dragged her tired body back to the hospital and back to her ward.He simply ate something and fell asleep without any scruples.

Alita took care of her to sleep, stood beside her bed for a while, sighed, and slowly turned to leave.

***

Just before Mu Li fell asleep, on the other side, Lan Ni was on her way to Ares to clear the combat headquarters.She had just come out from Dubo Scott, and at this moment she received a message from Creel, saying that Samuel's Air and Land 180th Division arrived in Ares at 13:00 noon. The blitzkrieg was launched, and the Zerg and predators roaming around the city were basically cleared at 16:48 p.m. under their rapid expulsion, and they are still doing investigation and cleaning work. It is not ruled out that there are still Zerg and predators remaining. hiding.

And these investigations are left to the general army. The 180th Division has already stationed in the Ares region. Now that Creel has just met with Samuel, I hope Lanni can come quickly to fulfill the promise.

When Lanny strode into the large meeting room of the combat headquarters, Creel and a middle-aged male officer with an extremely stern face were sitting on both sides of the long table with their own people.As soon as you step in, you feel that the atmosphere is stagnant, as if you are in a confrontation.

Lanny raised a smile, walked towards the side of the long table to Creel, and said with a smile:

"Lieutenant General Samuel, it's been a long time. My father asked me to send my greetings."

The middle-aged male officer stood up, brushed off the folds of the high-ranking general's uniform, touched Lan Ni's chest with his right hand, bowed gracefully, and said:

"It is my honor to see Miss Friesman again. Thank you General Friesman for your care, I am flattered."

He stood up straight, his eagle eyes were extremely sharp looking at Lanny, and the two conspicuous nasolabial folds on his nose and lips made him look even more majestic.

This is Samuel Abraham, who looks elegant and gentle on the outside, like a top-ranking person of noble origin, but he is a murderous devil crawling out of hell.

Lan Ni immediately felt the coercion. This kind of pressure from the superiors, she could only experience from her father and several generals. Except for the generals, the only one at the lieutenant level was Samuel, the demon king. It could give her such a chilling feeling.But she didn't care too much, she had long been used to her father's majesty, and she had her own way of dealing with it.

Lan Ni stepped forward, offered her hand, shook hands with Samuel, and sat down on the empty seat beside Creel.

"I'm sorry I'm late, what did I just miss?"

"Abraham and I are talking about the disposal of the Zerg corpses piled up inside and outside the city." Creel on the side explained.

Samuel on the opposite side nodded and said:

"That's right, now that the purge has come to an end, this large-scale invasion of Zerg and predators will cause more serious problems in the later stage. It is very likely to cause epidemics, and even bring the danger of the survivors in the city being infected with insects. Therefore, cleaning up the Zerg corpses accumulated in the city is the top priority. In addition, the Zerg corpses piled up outside the city must also be cleaned up as soon as possible to avoid attracting new Zerg swarms."

Lan Ni nodded and said, "Well, I understand that. Is there any problem?"

Creel turned away the corners of his mouth, and said displeasedly:

"I have already started to arrange soldiers to do these things, but Abraham seems to have a different opinion."

Lan Ni glanced at Crielle, feeling ominous in her heart, is it still coming?

Sure enough, Samuel smiled and spoke unhurriedly:

"Based on my experience, I think there will be a more efficient and cost-effective way to dispose of the Zerg corpses. It is said that there are many traitors here in Creel, so let them help carry the Zerg corpses.

As a result, the soldiers have experienced arduous combat and are very sleepy and exhausted, and their efficiency will also decline.These traitors can provide a lot of help, and it can be regarded as a respite for the soldiers after fighting desperately.

Secondly, these traitors will inevitably be attacked in various ways in the insect swarm. Their skin is scratched or exposed to insect blood and mucus. It is inevitable. They cannot receive medical treatment from the federal government.At that time, there is only one way to kill them all and burn their bodies.It's better to let them play some role before they die, which is considered a worthy death.

I don't know my proposal, what does Miss Friesman think? "

Lanny clenched her fists, raised a smile, and said in a relaxed tone:

"The lieutenant general was joking. These traitors have also suffered disasters. They are exhausted and scarred. How much can they help? It would be good if they don't help. I think it's better to let them help carry the corpses, so as to avoid accidents when the time comes. Mistakes are not worth the candle.”

"Hey~ Missy's words are wrong. How could they not be willing to let them contribute to the Federation before they die? No matter how tired or painful their bodies are, as long as they can prove their value to the Federation again, they will definitely be full of enthusiasm. Why didn’t they take advantage of such a good opportunity to wash away their shame? I think if they can complete the work of cleaning up the corpses, I will ask the general to set up a monument for them in the Memorial Hall of the Victims of the Insect Swarm.”

Is this lunatic already talking on the premise that all traitors will die?

Lan Ni felt that she had all the negotiating ability in her body, but she couldn't use it in front of this devil.The thoughts in this person's mind are very clear, almost acting with a kind of crazy obsession, which cannot be easily changed by her slick tongue.Originally, Lan Ni wanted to avoid the topic of "rebels infected with the epidemic", because she knew in her heart that once the traitors were infected with the epidemic, they would die.After the bug swarm passed, the traitors could not be cured, so it must be very normal to die in large numbers, and it would not be surprising even if Lanny died.But obviously Samuel saw through her thoughts at a glance.

Having said that, it is one thing for traitors to die from the plague, but it is another thing to forcibly classify them as infected and push them to deal with Zerg corpses on this premise.The executioners of the former are Zerg, while the executioners of the latter are their compatriots who are also human.Disposing of Zerg corpses is a very dangerous job, because the blood of the Zerg is highly contagious. If the protective measures are not in place, it is easy to be infected with insect poison and turn into insects.Once it starts to worm, there is no salvation, only a dead end.

Mu Li had been poisoned by the kudzu bug before, and the other female scientist named Bailey was also poisoned by the scorpion-shaped predator. The nature of this poisoning is different from that of the bug poison.Both kudzu venom and scorpion venom are chemical toxins and are not contagious.However, insect poison is a biological toxin that can be transmitted through blood and mucous membranes, which is more dangerous and more harmful.For example, the unlucky female soldier who broke her arm was infected with worm poison because the wound came into contact with worm blood, and it probably only ended in euthanasia.

Could it be that Samuel caught these traitors to deal with the Zerg corpses, and would he give them sophisticated protective equipment?It is impossible to think with your toes, so these scarred traitors have been forced to die.In the end, Lanny could already imagine the cruel scene of them being pushed into the burning Zerg corpses and turning into ashes together.

Lan Ni knew that persuasion alone could not stop Samuel's murderous intentions.And Creel next to him kept his face gloomy and silent, as if he didn't oppose Samuel too much.Lanny guessed that General Conrad put pressure on Creel and let Creel delegate power to Samuel. The matter here may have been handed over to Samuel to take full responsibility.

In other words, now Lan Ni has no way out, and there is only one way - delaying time.

Fortunately, she seized the time to meet with Dubo Scott before, and has already given the dynamic distribution map of the current army in the Ares region. The place that Creel has found for her is relatively hidden, and most people will never find it. The address and opening method of the secret underground warehouse, as well as a part of the intercom device, were handed over to Du Bo.It took Lannie and Du Bo two hours to roughly set up a plan to rescue all the traitors in Ares. After the discussion, Du Bo hurriedly left the temporary hiding place to organize the manpower and send out the traitors scattered in the city. Those who gathered gathered together and took them to the secret warehouse to hide, avoiding the limelight for a while.

However, it takes time. Du Bo told Lani that it would take at least 7 hours to completely complete the asylum. However, it was less than an hour since Du Bo left and now Lani sat in front of Samuel.There are still 1 hours left, and Lanny must delay for another 6 hours at least, otherwise, the consequences will be very cruel.

Lan Ni glanced at the time on the bracelet ID. It is now... 6 o'clock in the evening, and 6 hours later, it will be midnight in the morning.

She bent the corners of her lips slightly, fighting spirit ignited in her blue eyes, and said to herself: "Lanny, from now on, this is your battlefield!"That person helped you block the swarm of thousands of insects, now it's your turn!
