Volume 1 Fateful Encounters Chapter 48 Outside
The bloodthirsty desire finally subsided after Quinn's reassurance, and Morningstar and his party set out before dawn the next day.
The family of three who had been rested had also woken up when Morning Star and the others set off, and the little girl in the woman's arms was probably crying because it was the first time she was riding in a flying machine, and that feeling made her very uncomfortable. The man may have been persuaded by a woman last night to see Morning Star again without malice and sincerely apologize, but he was stubborn and still said that he did not agree with Morning Star's way of dealing with the killing ring. For such thoughts, Morning Star could only smile. This kind of mercy is useless in such a situation, I really don't know how this guy has protected his wife and daughter to survive until now.
With Quinn's help, food is prepared for the baby girl. The reason is because of the recent period of hiding life, and the first-time mother does not have enough breastfeeding. Quinn is experienced in this regard. The baby girl may not like the taste of food, but she can't stand the feeling of hunger, and continues to cry while gulping down. When a man sees his sinned daughter, he is obviously very distressed, but there is nothing he can do.
Morning Star is not a bad person, he did not make comfort, but used bloody facts to teach the man a hard lesson. The man also regretted a little, if he could be a little braver, if he could be ruthless and attack those mutated humans, maybe his wife and daughter would not have suffered such pain.
Finally arrived at the next target location, where the situation fully confirmed Quinn's inference. A dozen survivors are trapped in a building, relying on makeshift fortifications to fend off the mutants. When the morning star fell from the sky, greatly alleviating their crisis, several sturdy men fell asleep directly. Morning Star saw it in his eyes and was also slightly moved. This is human beings, although there will be deceit, although there will be mutual conquests, but in times of great calamity, there will always be heroes who will stand up. These men were obviously overworked, and once their spirits were relaxed, they could no longer bear the fatigue of their bodies.
On the plane, Quinn and Nolyn Hill injected the dozen or so people with drugs, and Bing Che provided water and food. The people who escaped the death wept bitterly, or missed their relatives and friends who had died, or vented their dissatisfaction with what happened to them, and they made a noise for a while. After being busy, Quinn found the morning star who was in a daze in the cab, gently snuggled into the man's arms, kissed lightly, and Quinn said, "You saved more than a dozen people, why are you still in a bad mood?" ”
Instead of answering Quinn's question, Morningstar asked rhetorically, "Are you done?" ”
Quinn nodded, but didn't speak, just looked at Morningstar to answer her question.
Morning Star leaned his body completely back in his chair, held the back of his head with both hands, and said with a light sigh: "I can't figure out why the top of the Third Fleet would give such an order. Knowing that the combat power on the surface of Haiwenxing is insufficient, but they still have to carry out rescue and extermination at the same time, don't they know how unreasonable this request is? ”
Queen's stomach leaned on Morningstar's chest, stroked his thick muscles, and said, "Perhaps, they don't know how difficult it is to eliminate mutants. If you hadn't had the intention of bringing out more troops at that time, this task would not have been so difficult. ”
Morningstar pinched Quinn's face, and the smooth skin nearly slid Morningstar's hand away. Lifting Quinn's chin, Morningstar said, "Do you think I don't want to bring people out?" We went out on a mission this time, and we won't be able to go back for a few months. Bai Lao has so many people there, and you didn't see the insect attack last time, and you were overstretched. If I bring people out again, our nest will be eaten by worms. ”
"So what are we going to do? General Bai should have told them about the successful development of the vaccine, do you think they will increase their troops? Quinn asked, gesturing to the sky.
Morningstar lay down in his chair again and said, "I think it will, but I don't know when." Judging from their previous handling methods, they are quite afraid of death. ”
"You're brave!" Quinn said, nodding Morningstar's head.
Morningstar smiled wickedly and replied, "If I am not brave, how can I get my queen!" As he spoke, he hugged Quinn tightly into his arms.
The door to the cab opened suddenly, and a slender figure flashed in, then closed the door tightly.
Morningstar and Quinn didn't look back, and they didn't knock when they were able to enter here, only Norin Hill. Quinn got up from Morningstar's arms, sat on the seat next to him, and beckoned to Norin Hill, patted Morningstar's thigh again, and said, "Norin, I'm tired, this human massage seat is for you!" ”
Norin Hill timidly walked up to Morningstar's side and was hugged by Morningstar. The elf girl didn't resist, obediently lowered her head, and sat in Morning Star's arms.
Quinn looked at Norin Hill with deep meaning, and for a moment felt that Norin Hill's personality was exactly the same as Captain Tina, this shy appearance seemed familiar. But the conversation was not over, and there were some things that still needed to be finalized, so Quinn didn't make a fuss about Norin Hill, but asked Morningstar: "If we continue to follow their instructions and clear up while rescuing, then we can only use the Seven Swords." I can also liberate the form, and then our speed will increase a lot. ”
"No, after all, not everyone can be as friendly as Katarina, and if we fully show our fighting power, who knows what those bastards in the alliance can do. A lesson from the past. Morningstar wrapped his arms around Norin Hill's waist and looked into the elf's eyes in response to Quinn.
As soon as the words landed, I felt a pain in my arm. When I turned my head to look, I found that it was Quinn who pinched herself, and her face was puffed up. Reaching out and grabbing Quinn's hand, he forcefully pushed her towards his car, and Quinn also cooperated with the power of Morning Star to straddle Morning Star's legs, one left and one right with Norin Hill, occupying the two legs of the human massage seat.
"Jealous, Queen." Morningstar asked.
Quinn turned her head away and refused to pay attention to Morningstar, and the gesture of the little woman made people fall in love.
Morningstar knows why Quinn is uncomfortable with Katerina's presence, unlike the other women of Morningstar, Caterina does not belong to this team, but has an ambiguous relationship with Morningstar. It's like being a family member and an outsider. Quinn can tolerate others sharing Morningstar, but only within the team, just as she can quickly accept Norein Hill.
Norin Hill seemed to use his ability to probe Morningstar's thoughts, and without being informed of the conversation, he suddenly said, "Isn't there an old saying in your republic that says, 'When you are outside, Junjun will not be killed'?" In fact, you can make a choice, and you don't have to do it according to their name. ”
Hearing this, Morning Star moved the hand around Nolin's waist down slightly, then patted it lightly, and said, "What do you call the republic, you are the daughter-in-law of the republic, you should say our republic!" ”
"I, our republic." Norin Hill's face turned half red again because of Morning Star's movements, and said glutinously.
Quinn couldn't hold back any longer, sneered, and said, "Look at this little daughter-in-law, be more obedient." ”
Morningstar also laughed, and then said, "Norin is right, he will be outside!" Why should I act according to their commands? Quinn, help me get a message to General Shiraishi, saying that a large number of survivors have been found and that he is requesting more transport ships. At the same time, report the difficulty of the extermination mission and ask General Shiraishi to transfer it to the upper echelons of the Third Fleet, and ask them to send troops to land and assist in completing it! ”
With that, Morning Star stood up, looked at the dense mutants attracted by the noise from the aircraft suspension facility outside the wheelhouse window, and said, "Let's go, let's go save people!" ”
According to the coordinate information provided by the Third Fleet, Morning Star quickly found several camps, and the rescued people quickly filled the entire spacecraft. Luckily, the follow-up transport unit sent by Shiraishi arrived in time, which relieved Morning Star of a lot of pressure. However, limited capacity, insufficient energy, and the slow pace of shelter construction still plague Shiraishi. Eventually, the rescue mission was suspended in a camp called Kevin's Shelter.
In addition to the reasons for the suspension of the rescue on the Hyven Star, the mutual conflict between the top brass of the Third Fleet is also an important one. According to the information provided by Shiraishi, the top brass of the Third Fleet became dissatisfied with Shiraishi's previous promise to hand over the preliminary research results of the death epidemic to Morningstar, and even more ridiculously doubted whether the medicine was really effective. The distribution of relief supplies was also extremely slow, and in some cases it was only airdropped by unmanned spacecraft, which turned out to be even more bizarre, and the supplies found by the White Rock forces were less than 30 percent of what the Third Fleet provided.
When Morningstar learned of this, his suspicions about the mission intensified. In Morningstar's first impressions, Kent, the commander of the Third Fleet, was not an indecisive man. But such stupid behavior really happened. If Kent got rid of himself because he wanted to avenge Nick, the price was too great, and so many people in the alliance were buried together because of such personal hatred? Anyone who is not crazy will not do this. If not for this reason, then what is the reason for such inefficiency of the Third Fleet.
Morning Star and his party, who stayed at Kevin's shelter, were warmly welcomed by the temporarily elected leaders of this shelter. Compared to the previous camps, the conditions here are simply paradise. Food and wine, dancing and music. The entire sanctuary is still alive and well under the operation of the leader named Ma Kane. Morning Star has not been so relaxed for a few days, looking at the people with hope on their faces, Morning Star also let go of his guard and became happy with everyone.
The celebration continued until midnight, and Morningstar returned to the craft accompanied by Norin Hill.
Quinn didn't attend the welcome banquet. Morningstar's explanation to McCain is that Quinn doesn't like noisy environments and rests on the aircraft. But the real reason is that Morningstar arranged for Quinn to secretly explore this shelter.
Ever since Morningstar stepped into this shelter, Morningstar had felt very strange, and it was undoubtedly the best choice to defend with all his might and wait for rescue in such a huge disaster. But everything in this sanctuary gives people a vision of survival in the last days. Morningstar once bluntly said to Quinn that his worries were a bit of a villain. But Quinn's answer was that he would rather believe it. So there was a scene where the three of them acted separately.
Reunited, Quinn says he doesn't have anything out of the ordinary, but Norin Hill says that Macain has thoughts on killing Morningstar. The three of them analyzed to no avail, so they decided to wait and see what kind of medicine was sold in this Ma Kane's gourd.
The night was getting thicker and thicker, but the three people in the aircraft did not sleep, quietly waiting for Ma Kane to throw himself into the net.
