The Crimson Marriage Covenant Looms Over Greenland (4)

"Ah, this mission is really unexpectedly hard, and now we have to deal with the battlefield, and hopefully we won't be prosecuted for destroying this forest. Shrugging apologetically, the world hero turned away from the camera. Todd turned the camera to me.

"Thanks to the heroes, thanks to their dedication and sacrifice, this strange event has finally come to an end, but what are these strange creatures? Where did they come from? and why did they appear in this forest? ”

When I finished, Todd made an "OK" gesture to me. I let out a long breath. I've never felt so tired.

So is Scarlett. She was slung tightly on my shoulder, like a deflated balloon.

"I'm so tired that I want to postpone the wedding. Scarlett said weakly.

"Me too. ”

With that, the two of us helped each other to get into the field vehicle. The sky was cloudy, and there was a cold chill around me, and I couldn't help but shiver, but I didn't know if it was because of the residual cold or the fear that had not yet settled.

It was a nameless punch, no loud name, no earth-shattering cry, just a punch that fell from the sky and slammed into the ground. All of a sudden, I felt that all the sounds around me were gone. The "thuds" of the monsters squeezing and slapping the shields, their shrill and unbearable laughter, and the gasps of the heroes were all gone.

It was only a brief silence. Immediately afterward, a roar like a hurricane filled my ears. If you press the bottom of the gas pedal in the middle of the desert, you feel as if the windshield is being squeezed by the air – and at the moment, the shield above my head feels like it's starting to crack. I was surrounded in the middle, so I didn't get a chance to see how the black bastards out there were crushed, torn, crushed, and reduced to powder by the hurricane. Even the ball of light above the forest turned into nothingness as the hurricane raged, plunging the entire forest into chaos and distortion.

It was dark all around, and all I could feel was air pressure, and even though I was protected from a barrier that would never be breached, I still felt an irresistible squeeze in my heart and lungs. Protecting Scarlett's head, I crouched down with her, and I didn't even have time to pay attention to the camera.

By the time I opened my eyes again, the battle was over, and the rest of the group was putting the finishing touches on it. And the three of us fainted under that powerful punch.

"Oh, I'm glad you're okay, although the doctor said it was okay, but my heart was still up. Sitting next to me, Mr. World Hero breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Oh my God," I said, shaking my head, "I didn't expect to faint." ”

Suddenly, I remembered that I had fainted in the middle of the battle, so I subconsciously looked around, but I couldn't believe my eyes—the forest was gone, and all that was left was broken tree trunks piled on top of each other here, there, and everywhere.

"Forest ......," I looked at the world hero, "where is the forest?!"

"Oh roar," the world hero scratched his head apologetically, "I overturned it." ”

So, stunned, I woke up Scarlett and Todd. At the very least, we have to report on the results of the battle.

Now, we're going to follow the heroes to the nearest Transhuman Foundation base in Greenland (S.) to Iceland. To be honest, I don't need anything right now, I just want to eat something and get a good night's sleep.

"Don't worry, every base of the Transhuman Foundation is more comfortable than at home, you'll love it," the bearded Maxim looked unusually relaxed now, because of John's "amplification" ability, he was even more tired at the moment, "I'm going to have a drink first hahaha! I'll see Scott later." With that, he climbed another field vehicle.

I've long heard that the person who financed the Transhuman Foundation was a faceless rich man, presumably someone who had received the blessings of transhumanity when he was young. Due to the opposition of many countries, the bases of the Transhuman Foundation in various countries and regions are actually invested and built by that person. It's surprising that the shot is so generous.

Statistically, one member of the battle died - it was the poor guy who could turn into metal, and it was ripped alive right before my eyes - and five members suffered injuries of varying severity, but none of them were life-threatening. One of them was the fawn lady, whose ankle had been bitten by the remains of a monster that was not completely dead, and it didn't look very serious, and it was even recovered quickly because of her animal-like genes, so fast that she was puzzled by herself. World heroes told me that heroes like her, who can be beasts, generally possess extremely strong vitality and physical power. Therefore, it can recover quickly in the face of difficult wounds.

After the technical team of our fellow technical team organized and sampled the corpses of those black monsters, we left there in a car and flew to the base in Greenland with the fighter plane. It seemed that all the difficult problems had been solved, and our interview work was completed without any danger.

I swear, I really don't want to take on another job like this.

I was so tired that I fell asleep on the flight to Greenland.

In my dream, a thin figure turned his back to me, and when I walked up to him, I found the faceless figure holding Scarlett's head, grinning strangely, and laughing so creepily.

Thanks to the noise of the warplane, I was able to wake up from this terrible dream, although I was sweating.

Following the voice, I leaned into the crowd, and Scarlett was there. World heroes can't stand in front because of their tall and strong size, so they can only stand on the periphery. I tapped Scarlett on the shoulder, and she turned her head to see that it was me, and frowned and gave me a place.

"What's going on?" I asked, not knowing what was going on.

"Why is this happening!" I heard the voice of the longbow, anxious and confused. Looking inside, it was the deer girl who was lying, and standing next to her, closest to her, was the accompanying doctor and the longbow.

I didn't ask any more questions, and continued to look at the girl—her expression was painful, but I couldn't really see where she was...... Oh no. I saw that her ankles, where she had been bitten by those black monsters, had grown strangely shaped buds that were the color of tender flesh.

"It's burning badly," the doctor pulled down his mask, his face full of doubts and puzzles, "I don't know why this is happening, there is no sign of infection, and the speed of flesh growth is unprecedentedly fast." ”

"Does it have anything to do with her superpowers?" Longbow asked, "Could it be that it's her bestiality that causes tissue proliferation?"

The doctor nodded: "It is very likely, but the equipment on the fighter plane is not complete enough, and a comprehensive diagnosis cannot be made at all, and the specific cause can only be concluded until the Greenland base." ”

Longbow nodded, but there was no sign of ease.

Although the "Chang Xin ......" burned badly, the "Miss Deer" still reluctantly smiled and called his name, maybe his real name.

"I'm here, I'm here," Longbow leaned over and took her hand, I guessed the girl's hand must be hot right now, "Lulin, I'm here." Don't worry, we'll be at the base soon, you'll be fine soon. ”

I didn't understand what they said, I wasn't very proficient in Chinese, and I only stayed at the level of "thank you", "delicious", and "how to get here". But I guess it must be some reassuring words. Because I saw that the girl nodded in satisfaction.

After the crowd dispersed, I saw Longbow sitting alone on a chair in the dining room. He had a glass of milk in front of him, but his sad expression didn't look like he wanted to drink it at all.

I didn't know what to do, but I knew I was a good listener, so I walked over.

"You don't look good," I sat down next to him, patting him on the shoulder, "Aren't you going to eat?"

When I photographed him, he was visibly taken aback. But when he looked up and saw that it was me, he was not very surprised, but shook his head: "It's nothing, I just don't know what to do...... She fell ill so suddenly, I was a little overwhelmed. ”

"You and that deer......" I don't know what to call her.

"Her name is Lu-lin," Longbow repeats her name, "which means deer in the forest." ”

I nodded, it was a fitting name.

"I've known her since I was a child, and we're friends in the world. He laughed, very naturally, as if he remembered many good things.

"You like her a lot, don't you?" I asked him.

Unexpectedly, the longbow blushed: "How did you see it?" ”

"Because I'm also the one to get married," I shrugged, "and I can smell it with my nose now." This is not bragging. ”

He laughed and looked down at the glass of milk in front of him: "Yes, I have liked her since I was a child, and I think I will probably confess to her when we are no longer engaged in such a dangerous job." ”

"Oh my God," I said about the job, and I instantly had another topic, "your job, all I can say, is really the hardest and most dangerous job in the world." I've seen that hero ripped off!"

He nodded: "I know who you are talking about, he is Egyptian, and he has a sister at home......"

He paused.

"The job...... It's dangerous, and it's always inevitable that people will die. My clan has the blood of hunters, so I draw my bow, and her clan has the blood of the forest, so she is like a deer, vigilant and agile. My elders told me that if there is no pursuit, death is just death, and if there is a great pursuit, death can be dressed in beauty and called sacrifice. Now that I can use this power for the sake of the beauty of this world, I think it is worth it. ”

He's right, this mission also made me look at heroes and transhumans anew. Although they have talents that ordinary people can't match, they also have good souls, and they love others equally.

"Hunter and deer," I pouted, a little puzzled, "it's incredible that you are world friends." ”

He cocked up his index finger, as if to emphasize what he was going to say: "We're not going to hunt the inhabitants of the forest, but the enemies of the forest—like those weird things today, they don't belong to the forest." Do you understand Chinese mythology?"

I shook my head, "I only know dragons." ”

"Yes, we hunt dragons, black dragons. We also hunt the nine-headed snake and some other ferocious monsters. This is what our family used to do. ”

"Why did you join the Transhuman Foundation?"

"The family is gone," he sighed, "the power of the family is coveted by others, and everyone is killed. When I was studying abroad, I heard that someone came to learn our skills, so I also had a junior brother. It's a pity that there is no news at all, and there is no trace. ”

"He'll be ...... too," I didn't know how to describe it, so I made a bow draw.

Seeing my antics and stretching out his hand, the emerald green longbow "swished" out of his hand.

"This is a way to shape the soul," he said, and as he pulled the bowstring, the light and arrow naturally condensed on the string, and when he put away the bowstring, he threw it upward, and the emerald green bow floated into the air again, "The bow and the arrow are made of the soul." ”

"It's amazing. "My eyes widened in disbelief at what was in front of me, it looked like magic.

"Different people shape souls into different things, so I don't know what he will do, after all, hunters don't necessarily use bows and arrows to hunt nowadays," he thought, "and maybe he can turn souls into bullets." ”

I nodded: "I have to say, your world is amazing. I still like my ordinary life. When I get back to the headquarters from Greenland, I'm going home to get married. ”

"You're getting married?" he raised an eyebrow, "congratulations." ”

I nodded, "Thank you." Originally, I didn't plan to get married, but when I reached a certain age, I felt as if I was inspired—and you should know that feeling—to live well with my woman. ”

"I don't know," he shook his head, "I just love her, and I haven't thought about anything else." ”

"Well," I nodded, "isn't that enough?"

Then I stood up and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, she'll be fine." ”

"Thanks," he nodded, "would you have written those words in the report?"

"Hey, this is a conversation between men," I laughed, "and I don't plan to dedicate everything to my vision. ”

I don't know if my comfort is useful, but I like this lad very much. He was always quiet, and when he fought, he was a man of respect.

But things didn't get any better because of my comfort. By the time we arrived at the Greenland base, Ms. Lulin's condition had deteriorated to the point of astonishment—the sprouts, as if they were not simply growing, they were differentiating and growing into the shape of a foot. Her body temperature also rose more and more, to the point where it was difficult to control.

Fortunately, emergency measures were taken at the Greenland base, and now she has been transferred to the emergency department. And at this moment, the longbow looked even more restless.

Moving with the same trepidation as the longbow, the anxiety of the world hero is something that he has never revealed in battle: "How can it be ...... like this?"

Now, even I don't know how to comfort them.

I just felt that, although the matter had been resolved, there was a sense of anxiety that came with the sudden illness of the deer forest to the Greenland base.

"How can this be......" the world hero still repeats his words.

After waiting for about an hour, the doctors came out.

"The body temperature has been controlled, the proliferation of tissues has been contained, and I haven't woken up yet, but it's definitely out of danger. ”

Nodding, the World Hero furrowed his brow.

"What should I do with the growth?" Longbow continued.

"Excision," the doctor looked at him, "won't hurt the ankle, and won't leave a scar with her recovery." ”

"Then why is this happening?"

"Maybe it's a disorder. ”

"Disorder?"

"Yes, disorder," the doctor nodded, "and the local ability to run wild happens to be reflected in the healing wound, and that deformed foot is formed. ”

At this time, even the longbow had no choice, so he could only repeat the words of the world hero: "How can this be ......"

But the horror finally settled, and I, an unrelated person, could catch my breath.

"Longbow decided to stay here with the deer," I walked side by side with the World Hero, and he explained the rest of the arrangements to me, "The rest of the personnel will rest for the night, and tomorrow we can go back to headquarters." ”

I nodded, and I was happy with the arrangement.

"You can try the bars and arenas here," the World Hero led me to my room, "you're going to like it, and I'm guessing Miss Perez will." ”

I nodded, "I'll have to take a shower and get some sleep, though." The mental pressure of this job is much stronger than the physical pressure!"

"Is that stressful? Then you should really come with me to fix the nuclear power plant. ”

"Oh, come on," I must firmly refuse, "I am not going to go unless you kill me." ”

With that, I pushed open the door to my room and said goodbye to him, "See you in the evening, Mr. World Hero." ”

I have to say, the bed at the base was really comfortable, so soft that I felt like I was going to sink in. I was lying on the bed, Scarlett was lying next to me, and we both stared blankly at the ceiling.

"What are you thinking?" I asked Scarlett. Even though I took a nap on the plane, my limbs were still sore and my eyelids were fighting. Todd complained to me on the plane, saying that he almost killed him, and that he must be sleeping in the room now.

"What will you do with that 'fawn'?" she didn't seem to have forgotten to worry about Lulin.

"I don't know," I said, looking at her sideways, "after all, it's not something we should worry about. ”

"But I always have ......"

"What's there?"

"There was a sense of foreboding. ”

"God forbid, shut up," I said, shaking my head and gently putting my hand over her shoulder, "the mission is over, our work is done, and the big things have nothing to do with us." What we have to worry about now is how to write a good report and how to show up on time for the wedding!"

Scarlett nodded in agreement, "You're right, dear, you're so right. ”

We talked a little bit and fell asleep.

I didn't know what had happened while I was asleep, but when I opened my eyes, I thought something terrible had happened. Because the noise outside the door even pierced my door, I could clearly hear the hysterical man's shouts.

"What's that! That's something——!!"
