Chapter 16: Welcome to Rhode Island (1)
The rhythmic low-frequency vibration gradually stopped, and the lights in the cabin immediately turned on, illuminating the slightly dim small space, witnessing the closed hatch slowly lowering, Zhao Xi, who understood that he had arrived at his destination, turned his head sideways and saw Zoya's quiet sleeping face.
If there were no faint tear stains, and dirt formed by dust and blood, this would have been a sweet and warm scene.
"Move faster, don't grind!"
Before the hatch could be lowered completely, a figure jumped into the cabin, opened his throat and shouted outside, only to find the two people sitting in the corner. "Huh? Ah, I'm sorry, I, I didn't know you guys were resting..."
Smiling slightly to show understanding, Zhao Xi gently patted the heads of the people around her and called her name. "Get up, we're in Rhode Island."
"Thank you, uh---" The young woman with green hair scratched her head as she looked at the young man's chest, and there was some doubt in her golden eyes. "You don't have a badge, are you a civilian from Chernobog?"
"He's Miller, Elite Operator." The Doctor, who was lying on the ground, suddenly spoke, interjecting into a conversation between the two. "Beauty, your legs are beautiful."
"Because I usually exercise, it's different from that blood demon." Haha ended the topic twice, and the woman who said on the badge saw Zoya wake up slowly, so she made a gesture to Zhao Xi.
"The medical department has set up a testing station outside, remember to report it."
During the exchange between the three of them, more and more people also entered the cabin, different from the casual outfit of Gavel's black and green sleeveless sweatshirt and short skirt, they were all wearing white coats, masks and gloves. Following Gavel's instructions, they arrived at the area where the seriously wounded were kept, and in groups of three they began to move them outside.
Thinking that he couldn't help, Zhao Xi simply took Zhuoya's hand and took the latter out of the aircraft. With his feet on the solid floor and his eyes squinting to adjust to the light overhead, someone couldn't help but say to himself: "Why isn't the landing site made in the open air like Chernobog?" β
"It is fully enclosed to withstand extremely bad weather, and the protection effect of the open-air landing zone is too poor." Out of nowhere, Kelsey, who was still wearing a loose white coat, gave an explanation, and at the same time, his emotionless gaze fell on Zoya. "The Usasians... Citizens of Chernobog? β
"Hello," like a little white rabbit meeting a big bad wolf, facing the aura of the cat-eared girl, even though the girl tried to be calm, but some trembling tones still exposed her nervousness. "I'm Zoya Kaczynski, a citizen of the second class in Chernobog, a third-year student at the Military Police Academy."
"Second class... If I'm not mistaken, it should be the descendants of public officials. The facial expression and tone of voice did not change, and the stone sculpture woman raised her hand and snapped her fingers. Yaye! β
"Did you call me, teacher?" Not far away, a woman who was operating a medical device raised her head when she heard this, and the animal ears on both sides of her head swayed up and down. "The detector is ready and ready to go."
"Thank you for your hard work, help Miss Zoya do a blood source stone concentration measurement." Quietly separating the two and handing over the somewhat restless girl to a medical staff named Yaye, Kelsey grabbed Zhao Xi who was about to follow him with a cold face. "You don't have to go."
"Hey, but just now Gaville said, let me go to the testing site to report, what kind of blood are you talking about..."
"You and that guy are special, and I'm solely responsible for testing."
Feeling that Kelsey was making a bit of a fuss, Zhao Xi laughed twice and tried to break free, but found that the other party's strength was surprisingly strong. "Okay, okay, just listen to you." Picking up his steps to avoid dislocating his arm, he was almost dragged away from the spacious landing area by Kelsey, and Zhao Xi immediately encountered the doctor lying on the cart.
It seems that the 'guy' in someone's mouth is referring to him.
"See you again, brother." Even though the bandage on his chest was oozing blood, and his body was firmly fixed by the belt, the masked man who couldn't move still looked heartless. The first to say hello to Zhao Xi, the doctor immediately turned his head sideways and negotiated with the cat ear doctor who was traveling with him.
"Wife, can you loosen the strap a little... Hey, hey, take it easy!? β
The scythe-shaped blade slashed with extreme speed and froze in mid-air, its metallic tip pressed against the helmet's surface, forcing the person to change his words urgently. With a cold snort, he motioned for the giant beast to put away his armament, and operated the wrist device to let the cart move forward, Kelsey was silent for a long time and said coldly:
"Where's your breath purifier?"
"It was broken during the battle," Zhao Xi still felt a chill down his spine as he saw the seahorse-shaped killing weapon burrowing into the opponent's body from behind, even if it was not the first time he saw it. "But I brought it back, and I guess it can still be used."
"Wear it all the way next time, and don't take it off if it's broken."
After quietly observing Kelsey a few times, and making sure that the latter would not settle accounts with him because of this, Zhao Xi's worries subsided most of them. "By the way, there's something I want to state in advance about my missionβ"
"If it's related to the Warrior of Light or Heidlin, we'll have plenty of time to exchange opinions and information later." Seeing Zhao Xi's look of surprise, the man lying on the cart laughed. "I'm a genius, I can still guess what my brother is thinking~"
Giving the maggot-writhing doctor a knife to force him to stop yelling, Kelsey said, "I'll take you to the lab first and give you a physical examination." Then you take a shower, change into clean clothes, eat something and come back to the office, we need to have a good talk. β
"Uh, ask something." After waiting for a moment and no response, the doctor could only talk to himself, and continued, "When you take a shower, do you have a bikini girl to help you wipe your back?" β
ββ¦β¦ Mon3trγ β
"Forget it, I can do it myself, and I don't bother you."
The cold gaze fell on the man's face, as if trying to see through the mask, and after a long silence, Kelsey withdrew his gaze and raised his hand to the closed door at the end of the hallway.
"We're here."
Compared with the doctor who suffered a crossbow in the heart and lost a lot of blood, Zhao Xi, who was mostly wounded by flesh, was in much better condition, so when Kelsey said that the laboratory could only accommodate a single person for testing, the young man took the initiative to give priority to the mask man and chose to wait outside. Sitting down on the plastic chair on the side of the corridor, Zhao Xi raised his head boredly, looking at Kelsey, who was still in place and did not follow the cart into it.
"Aren't you going to go in and test him?".
"That guy's life is very hard, and he can't die if he delays a little time." The iceberg beauty paused, her expression a little less indifferent and a little softer. "From this day forward, this is your stronghold, your foothold..."
"Your home." There was no head or tail to drop a sentence, and the cat-eared woman walked into the room without looking back, leaving Zhao Xi sitting on the chair, full of question marks without knowing what he was doing.
