Chapter 19: The Doctor's Advice
The captain of the guard had been skeptical about the reason why Shennong and the others had come here, but now, after hearing Dr. Oron explain the horror of the two alien creatures, that suspicion had been dispelled a little.
After all, the system exists to protect them, and when the system judges that there is a strong presence raging in the base, it will naturally send a stronger resistance force.
The Scarred One is among them.
Thinking about it for a lifetime, looking at the disheveled two people standing in front of him, the face of the guard captain hidden under the helmet softened a little, and after he took a deep breath, he asked seriously: "Shennong, Zhurong, can you two really be 100% sure that those two alien creatures are dead?" ”
"One of them has been shaved open by us, and the other has been charred, and I don't think they have the ability to come back from the dead. It's just ......"
Shennong glanced at Dr. Oren and said solemnly, "The only thing I'm not sure about is how many beasts that the beast producer has created during this time. ”
"Although we have never encountered other strange beasts along the way, we dare not guarantee that there are still strange beasts lurking in the shadows, silently waiting for the opportunity to counterattack. Perhaps, it has already run somewhere else. ”
"Oops!"
"In this way, the task left to us by the system is not yet complete!" As he spoke, Shennong suddenly sighed worriedly, then reached out and patted Zhu Rong's shoulder, and said, "Zhu Rong, don't be in a daze, we have to continue to complete the cleanup work!" With that, Shennong turned around and wanted to leave.
Unexpectedly, Shennong's right foot had just been raised, and the captain of the guard had already raised his laser gun and drank: "Shennong! Don't move! ”
Shennong's movements froze, and then he retracted his right foot, turned to look at the captain, and said with a wry smile: "Hey! What do you mean by that? I still have a task to do! Just don't make a fuss, okay? ”
"Shennong, although your explanation is reasonable, it is true that our guards have not received orders from the system."
"So, until the base system is back up and running, and we are given orders again, I must not let you move freely in Area B."
The captain said word for word: "After all, the responsibility of our guard team is to protect the safety of everyone in the underground base. All of you, of course, are also included. This is true even if you are far more powerful than us. ”
"Ah, that's a difficult principle." Hearing this, Shennong exhaled a breath of turbidity and said, "So, captain, do you mean to forcibly leave the two of us here?" ”
The captain of the guard said categorically: "Yes! ”
Shennong's eyes shrank, and he asked rhetorically: "So, what if we have to go?" ”
"If persuasion fails, then we can only use force." After that, the captain of the guard raised his left hand, and the protective ring that had been the same as the outside turned around at the same time, "Shennong, I know that you have the ability to live and die with flesh and bones, and as long as you still have a breath, no matter how serious the injury is, you can heal." So, when we confront you, we will try to be as careful as possible to avoid your vital points. ”
"Please rest assured."
Seeing that the pitch-black muzzle of the gun had been erected, and aimed at Shennong from all directions, Zhu Rong, who had been silent all the way, walked straight in front of Shennong, shrugged his shoulders, and flames ignited in his arms, containing wisps of heat.
The two sides confronted each other, the killing intent condensed, and the war seemed to be on the verge of breaking out.
At this moment, a light cough suddenly came, which abruptly broke the solemn atmosphere of the scene.
Immediately afterwards, Huafa old man Oren walked quickly between Zhu Rong and the captain of the guard, spread his hands, and persuaded: "Damn it! How long has it been, and there are dangers all around, and you still have to fight among yourself? ”
"Captain! I didn't say you! Oren shook his head and looked at the captain of the guard and said, "You have just fought a round with the alien beasts, so you must have been exhausted, right?" Under such circumstances, why do you still want to be the enemy of Shennong? Don't...... Do you think you, who have become weak, can stop the two Scars who have defeated the alien creatures? ”
"In any case, where the duty lies, we can't stop it." The captain replied coldly.
Oren froze for a moment, then turned his head to look at Shennong and the two, and said with a wry smile: "Shennong, you are honest, is it really the order that the system gave you to eliminate the alien beasts?" ”
Shennong's face remained unchanged, and he nodded and said, "Well, it's true. ”
"Then, now that you have cleaned up all the strange beasts you saw, it is better to treat the task as if the task has been completed, and listen to the captain's words and stay here obediently." Oron smiled and said, "We'll feel a lot more at ease if you're here." ”
"Doctor, I'll tell you the truth, in fact, I originally regarded 'cleaning up the beasts' as a task to pass the time, and I didn't care about failure or success. But ......"
Shennong's words changed, and he turned around and pointed towards the way he came, "Maybe it's overflowing with love, right?" Ever since I saw that towering pile of bones, I suddenly wanted to wipe out this group of strange beasts, I really wanted to avenge this group of dead warriors, and I really wanted to protect other people who didn't know that there was a strange beast attacking! ”
"Since the strange beasts in the Paris district have been cleared and protected by guards, then...... I don't want to stay here and wait! ”
With that, Shennong's eyes were like swords, and he crossed Dr. Oron and stabbed at the captain of the guard, "Whether you believe us or not, I have to leave here now!" Explore the various areas and find all the strange beasts hiding in the darkness...... And then kill them all! Innocent people will never die at their hands again! ”
"You ...... Ay! ”
Seeing the resolute stance of both sides, Dr. Oren was sweating profusely, but he did not know how to mediate, and after stomping his feet, he fell silent.
Without the sound of mediation, the terrifying cold killing intent condensed again, and the tense atmosphere once again permeated the audience.
"Zhu Rong, if you wait a while, ......"
At this time, Shennong stood behind Zhu Rong, his throat rolling, and he spit out a faint sound.
But before Shennong finished speaking, his actions had already been discovered by the captain of the guard, who was vigilant and immediately pressed his finger on the trigger and drank: "Dr. Oren, please get out of here quickly!" ”
Seeing this, Dr. Oren broke out in a cold sweat, obviously frightened by the formation of the two sides.
But...... He also has a reason why he can't back down.
Different from the duty that the captain of the guard insisted on, and not from the sudden 'overflow of love' that Shennong said, he ...... Just for yourself.
Scientists are often good at analysis, and as the chief researcher, Oren's analytical skills are naturally among the best.
Judging from the combat power shown now, not to mention whether the surviving guards still have the strength to stop the Divine Scars, even if they take 10,000 steps back, they can really rely on force to keep Shennong and the two here, and both sides will definitely end up in a lose-lose situation.
The base is full of darkness, and as Shennong said, no one knows if there will be strange beasts lurking.
If both the Scar and the Guardian lose the ability to fight, if the beast takes the opportunity to emerge, then ...... Isn't his noble self going to be buried with this group of reckless men?
No way! Absolutely not!
Even if you can't leave a scar, you can't let them fight!
Dr. Oren's mind was racing, and he was frantically thinking about what to do, when suddenly he had a flash of inspiration and laughed, "Hey! Don't be so impulsive, you young people! Put down your arms first and listen to me! ”
"Doctor?" The captain of the guard frowned and asked, "What do you want to say but it doesn't hurt to say it, but ...... Until Shennong and Zhurong give up resistance, we will never lay down our arms. ”
"Ditto! But...... As if we don't have weapons either. Shennong replied with a smile.
"I don't care if you have weapons or not! Will you not lay down your arms! As long as you don't suddenly get into a fight, it will affect me! Dr. Oren laughed angrily and said hurriedly, "Your conflict is nothing more than one wanting to act as a savior to save innocent people, and the other wanting to stick to his job!" In fact, these two problems do not conflict and can be solved together! ”
"How to fix it?" Hearing this, Shennong and the captain were all overjoyed and asked at the same time.
Dr. Oren glanced at Shennong and the captain respectively, and a meaningful smile appeared on his dry old face, "Since Shennong's intentions are good, and it is very likely that the system issued an order, then we actually have no reason to stop them!" ”
"The ferocity of the alien beast, captain, you have already experienced it yourself, and in the case of prevention, the guards of the Paris Division also suffered heavy casualties. Not to mention, he was attacked by a strange beast without knowing it. ”
"If you don't hurry up to clean up the beasts, or alert the other guards, the casualties may increase rapidly, and eventually reach a point where they cannot be handled!"
Hearing Oren say this, the captain of the guard's heart sank, indeed, if he was attacked by a strange beast without any preparation, the guards would definitely be caught off guard, and a large number of casualties would be killed and injured in an instant.
Although it is the honor of a soldier to die in battle, the captain of the guard felt uncomfortable at the thought of his companion being torn apart, and immediately gritted his teeth and said: "Having said that, but ......"
Before the captain finished speaking, Dr. Oren hit the snake with the stick and said first: "If you really don't worry about Shennong and Zhurong walking around, then you can send a few capable generals to follow them and monitor them!" ”
"If you encounter a strange beast on the road, they can kill it by the way. If you don't encounter it, you can also remind the guards in each area to prepare in case of surprise attacks by strange beasts and reduce the casualties of the troops. Why not? ”
"What's more, captain, don't you want to know what's going on at the base? With the help of the Scar, the people sent out can naturally arrive at the control room safely, and when they return, we can also know the reason for the change in the base, so we don't have to guess anymore. ”
