Chapter 489: Quiet Night

"As I said, the most important thing for the two of you now is to heal your injuries first! Instead of thinking about how to get revenge on the enemy like now! If you can't even control your own health, what are you going to do to fight the enemy! A rare trace of anger appeared on the old man's face, and he was so frightened that both the Hades King and Gong Piqing hurriedly shut their mouths.

Indeed, in this old man's body, "anger" is an extremely rare thing, and even in Gong Piqing's memory, he has never seen him angry in the few years he has known this old man; And now, the old man's wrinkled face had a samurai-like fierceness, which was intimidating.

There was silence in the infirmary, save for the sound of the medical staff treating the wounds of Gong Piqing and Hades.

After a long time, there was another rush of footsteps outside the infirmary, and then the door of the infirmary was slammed open, and a big man in pajamas broke in.

"The Immortal and the World Tree are not there! Are you all right? As Gaia's voice appeared, the bright light of a flashlight immediately hit the bed where Gong Piqing was lying, and then Gaia saw the "huge formation" in the infirmary at this time with the help of the light of the flashlight.

"Ahhh......h So many people...... I'm sorry I didn't see ...... just now," an apologetic smile appeared on Gaia's face.

"Look, your two good brothers are sneaking out on a mission behind your back." One of the commanders said helplessly to Gaia.

"You, where have you been......" Gaia was also incredulous after seeing the horrific wound on Gong Piqing's body, now that the exoskeleton of Gong Piqing's abdomen has been completely removed, several staff members of the medical department are using flashlights to clean his wounds, and the most serious parts of his abdominal wounds can even be seen under the skin.

"We ...... I went to Xiguan Renai ...... again."

Gaia seemed to be stunned by their "action from the middle of the night", and she couldn't say anything for half a day.

"Alright...... Let's go back, all the leaders, our injuries are not in the way, can't we all walk back from Xiguan Renai well...... It's all a few minor injuries, don't worry about it, and when I'm almost recovered, I'll take the initiative to submit a letter of repentance......" Hades said, turning his head to look at the heads of the two departments and the senior commanders behind them.

"Yes, commanders, it's so cold in the second half of the night, you better go back, Hades's wounds have been basically healed, and the World Tree itself has a strong recovery ability, so it is estimated that they will be alive again if they stay here for a few days, tonight is also a false alarm, and our medical supplies are also enough, so ...... The situation is still very good, you can rest assured! A doctor in charge of treating Hades' wounds also said.

"I think it's okay, why don't we go back first, boss, the recovery ability of the World Tree is so strong, and the Hades can also be affected by his recovery ability by his side, there shouldn't be any big problems." A commander with frozen purple lips shrunk behind the old man and said.

"Good...... Then there are brothers from the labor medical department who work hard to take care of them. After the old man finished speaking, he nodded to the head of the Gaia group, signaling that he could go back tonight.

It wasn't until the old man had left with the commanders that Gong Piqing and Hades were relieved, and Gaia did not go back with them, until they were gone, sitting on the cold iron chair, looking at them with a sad look on his face, like an elderly father looking at his mischievous child who he could not control.

A few minutes later, the doctor who was in charge of treating their wounds was done, and Gong Piqing and Hades were all wrapped in white medical bandages on their abdomen, looking like two cosplay players.

The doctors briefly told them a few words and then left the infirmary, but as soon as they walked on their front feet, Gaia slapped his thigh with a "snap", and then said helplessly: "You two, you two! Is it really idle in the middle of the night and has nothing to do to go out for a walk? Fortunately, the current world situation is grim, if you two go out secretly like this before, what should you think if you let the other partners in the research institute know? ”

Hades and Gong Piqing were stunned for a moment at the same time, "What do you think?" ”

"You two old men sneak out together without sleeping in the middle of the night, what else can you do!" Gaia said as she slapped her thigh as she had done before.

Now, it was Gong Piqing's turn and Hades King to be embarrassed, "No, it's not what you think...... It wasn't the two of us who went out together at first, it was me who ...... first."

Before Gong Piqing finished speaking, he was interrupted by Gaia's outstretched hand, "Okay! Don't quibble, it's a good thing we don't have any gossip here, if there is, you two won't be able to wash it even if you jump into the Yellow River! ”

I said...... Big brother, it's really not what you think, it's the World Tree that first saw someone playing a flashlight from Xiguan Renai's side, he thought there were survivors over there, but not only did he not find the survivors in the past, but he was also attacked by the infected body there, and I also couldn't sleep and I just saw the World Tree sneaking out in the middle of the night, so I wanted to see what he was doing when he went out, and then he was attacked with him......" Hades said this, but in his heart he was thinking about the people who said that there was no gossip here, Isn't that enough gossip for you? Could it be that you used to be from the paparazzi......

"Look! Look! Isn't that the problem? The two old men who couldn't stand the loneliness tossed and turned in the bedroom and couldn't sleep, and then they slipped out in unison! ”

Hades seemed to be speechless, and he couldn't answer for a while.

"That's enough, Gaia." In the end, it was Gong Piqing who broke the silence first, and his voice returned to its usual indifference, which was completely inaudible in the meaning of joking, "There is something I want to ask you." ”

"Just ask, but say it in advance, I'm not interested in you two big men!" Gaia said, moving back warily.

"Do you think that if I make a suggestion to the command and let us restart the 'Super Soldier Project' here, it will be possible to help us defeat the crazy people and the Demon Realm of Xiguan Renai?" Gong Piqing said as he lay on the hospital bed, staring at the ceiling.

Gaia was stunned.

"You—You said to restart the 'Super Soldier Project?!' Gaia looked incredulous.

"That's right, you can also see from today, or yesterday when the two of us went out on a mission, now the zombies outside have become stronger and stronger, first I and the Hades went to the Xiguan Renai Research Institute to take a turn, and we were tossed by the infected bodies there, and the next day we went out to look for supplies, and we were forced to put a big move by a zombie we met on the way to barely win, and then today, I and the Hades almost didn't even fight two infected bodies......"

Gong Piqing's words seemed to have some kind of magic in them, unconsciously bringing the two of them to the previous mission, indeed, the reason why they did not refute was because Gong Piqing was very right, and their enemies were indeed becoming stronger at a terrifying speed.

"If you think about it from a bad point of view, maybe the ones we encountered in these three missions are all the failed research products released by the Xiguan Renai Research Institute, and we are not unseen with their successful products, such as the elemental mages we encountered in the Extremely Cold Country, our enemies are already so powerful, and we have been stagnant."

When Gong Piqing said the words "elemental mage", Gaia and Hades couldn't help but shudder, indeed, the word "elemental mage" had unconsciously become a lingering nightmare in the hearts of the four of them, and it was also an enemy that the four of them did not want to face again in their lives.

"In a big way, this is the struggle between us and the Demon Realm, we stand in front of all mankind, stand in front of the earth, guard the human race, guard the earth; But in a small way, this is also a struggle between our two research institutes, seven years ago, our research institute mastered cutting-edge technology, so we took the lead in completing the 'Super Soldier Project', but with the frustration of humanity and the help of the Demon Realm, the strength of Xiguan Renai has unconsciously surpassed us or even far surpassed us. ”

"Perhaps, this seemingly peaceful day is already our last chance to turn the tables, because no one knows how many so-called perfect test subjects are hidden on Xiguan Renai's side, in case they now have an army comparable to elemental mages, our future ...... It's going to be a nightmare......"

Gong Piqing's words were deep and distant, as if a storyteller hidden in the silent night drew Hades and Gaia's thoughts in, and when he came back to his senses, Gaia took a deep breath and nodded to him, "I see what you mean......"
