Volume 1 Wilderness Chapter 61 The Insider
But it's a pity that after reading hundreds of pages, from the east to the west, and from the south to the north, there is no task similar to this trip, which makes him feel helpless!
Muttering in the mouth:
"Why doesn't anyone in this area post a task?"
But just as he was about to exit the quest lobby, one quest at the bottom of the list caught his interest!
[Collection Mission: Find evidence of mutant footprints and report it!]
Reward for completing tasks: 100,000 points.
Mission Guarantee: 1000 Credits! ]
100,000 points!!
Ouyang Mu's eyes suddenly lit up, you must know that these 100,000 points are equivalent to a full 100,000 city coins!
Although he now has about 500,000 coins in the card, who would have too much money!
Just looking at the goal of this mission, it is indeed a bit difficult to do!
Because as far as he knows, one mutant is still the same test subject fifty years ago, and he has not heard of any mutants existing, so this task is unavoidable!
Ouyang Mu hesitated slightly, then decisively accepted the task, and then the task system of the lighthouse network automatically deducted a thousand deposits.
Balance: 9000 points!
This quest does not require a time limit, and he can do other tasks while looking for opportunities to complete this high-value task.
Back at the camp, two medical staff sent by the base city had already arrived and were rescuing Wang Li, and three other guards were escorting him.
The task of the three of them on this trip is to escort the medical staff until the mission is completed and return to the base city, after all, special professions such as medical care are extremely scarce resources in the major base cities today.
Ouyang Mu and Li Zhuang were the two captains alongside, and the rest of the team members were waiting outside the tent.
About an hour later, one of the doctors put down the tools in his hand, explained a few words to the other nurse, and then turned to Ouyang Mu and the others:
"Two captains, let's go outside and talk!"
After speaking, the doctor took the lead in going out, Ouyang Mu and Li Zhuang glanced at each other, and they both saw the solemnity in each other's eyes.
In a no-man's land outside the tent, the doctor said to Ouyang Mu and the others:
"The good news, two captains, is that the patient will wake up soon..."
Li Zhuang was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said:
"Really? That's great! Thank you doctor~Thank you, thank you~! ”
But Ouyang Mu saw that the doctor was not happy when Li Zhuang thanked him, but was still worried!
Li Zhuang also noticed something unusual:
"Doctor... Why do you look like that? ”
This doctor is in his forties, which can be regarded as the only remaining inheritance of the base city, he lifted his glasses and said:
"Because there's another bad news...!"
Ouyang Mu showed such an expression, and Li Zhuang said urgently:
"Doctor, what's the bad news? Could it be that my brother is still in danger? ”
The doctor sighed lightly and said:
"The patient's superficial injuries are fine, even if they are serious, as long as they are treated in time, there is no major problem! But the critical wound is in its body..."
Looking at Ouyang Mu and the others, the doctor continued in a paused tone:
"With today's medical conditions, he can't get up and move for half a year, and with his injuries, he only has half a year to live at most! In other words, he is no different from death! ”
For some reason, Ouyang Mu suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and his chest was jammed!
Nothing is more uncomfortable than watching a person slowly move towards death!
The feeling of oppression of knowing the time of death made even him, a third party, feel depressed, let alone the person concerned!
Li Zhuang was also silent, no matter what happened in the past, he would try his best to mobilize everyone's fighting spirit, but at this time, his expression was also a little low!
Death, put on anyone's body, is a heavy feeling of suffocation!
Those who can face death head-on, unless they are enlightened, but how many people can really be enlightened!
"This is kept secret from Wang Li in advance, and after we understand the situation, let him go back to the base city with your medical team to recuperate!" As for after that... Go with the flow! ”
Li Zhuang's voice was low, and he was quite helpless in the end, this kind of thing is not easy to deal with on anyone, so let it be!
Ouyang Mu was helpless about this, and if he didn't tell the patient, it might make him feel better!
Then everyone went back to their tents and waited for Wang Li to wake up...
In the blink of an eye, it was noon the next day, Ouyang Mu stayed in the camp today and waited for Wang Li to wake up, while Li Zhuang led the team to continue to search for clues.
At this time, Ouyang Mu was closing his eyes and looking inward in the tent, he now had already completed the spinal marrow replacement in his body, and his limbs were more than half completed, which was inseparable from the exercise he insisted on weekdays.
Recently, because he was outside, he had been practicing the fourth form of physical art in the tent for secrecy, which made Mia laugh at him for a long time.
But Ouyang Mu still persevered, and the progress of changing the marrow was fast!
As he looked further, a call came from outside the door:
"Captain Ouyang, are you there?"
Ouyang Mu woke up when he heard the sound, and after a little recognition, he heard that it was a guard of the medical team.
His heart moved, and he immediately got up and walked out of the tent:
"I'm here, what's wrong?"
Seeing Ouyang Mu, the guard had a smile on his face:
"Hello! Captain Ouyang! The patient is awake! ”
There had been a guess, but Ouyang Muren had a little excitement, he took three steps and made two steps, and hurriedly walked towards the tent where Wang Li was...
Wang Li's face was pale, and the injuries caused him looked very vicissitudes.
When Ouyang Mu came in, the nurse was feeding him.
“… Ahem ~ Ou... Captain Ouyang...! ”
Wang Li struggled to get up, but was stopped by Ouyang Mu:
"Lie down, don't get up... How are you feeling right now? ”
Wang Li squeezed out a smile and said:
"It feels good, I feel... You can get up and run... Ten kilometers! ”
He spoke staccaly, and it was clear that he was doing his best.
"Well, trust you! But what you need now is to recuperate, and tomorrow you and the medical team will go back to the base city first. ”
When Ouyang Mu said that he would return to the base city, Wang Li's expression was obviously a little darker, Ouyang Mu guessed that there must be something hidden in it that he didn't know, and hurriedly comforted him:
"Don't worry, after you recover from your injuries, you will be allowed to return to the team at any time!"
But there was a gloom in my heart: I am afraid that there is no time to return!
Wang Li's eyes lit up when he heard this, he was able to enter the investigation team, and it took a lot of effort to get in.
The treatment and level of the investigation team and the night owl are higher than those of the escort team, because the dangers faced by these two positions are much higher than those of the escort team, so after receiving the commitment of the captain of the escort team, Wang Li's frustrated mood was suddenly comforted.
"Well, okay Captain Ouyang, I obey the arrangement of my superiors!"
Hearing this, Ouyang Mu nodded, this young team member, the light in his eyes was still there, and he had not lost confidence in the future!
"Wang Li, what happened to you that night?"
However, as Ouyang Mu spoke, he saw Wang Li, who was originally smiling, and suddenly looked frightened!
“… Person... Person...! ”
But Wang Li stammered and couldn't say a complete word, seeing that the situation was indeed frightened!
Ouyang Mu frowned, and said softly:
"Wang Li, don't be afraid, there's a captain!"
Seeing that Wang Li's mood gradually stabilized, Ouyang Mu said softly:
"People, you say? Who? ”
Wang Li's face once again showed a strange expression, but it was not as frightened as before, but he said with a look of trepidation:
"Savages... No, no... Monster! ”
Savages? Monster?
Ouyang Mu was full of doubts, what is this?
"What savage youkai? Wang Li, look at me? Tell me you know! ”
Ouyang Mu shook Wang Li, making him sober again:
"I... And Li Yi patrols... , found... There was a dark shadow nearby, and Li Yi was anxious... Be the first to check it out..."
As he spoke, he gasped slightly, his voice still trembling:
"But... When I chased after him, Li Yi... With a black figure... I was in one place, so I joined in..., but..."
"But, that dark shadow... He looks like a man, but he doesn't look like a man! ”
Like a human? Not like a human again? Ouyang Mu was even more confused!
Ouyang Mu endured his doubts and asked softly:
"What the hell is he?"
"I don't... Know! He had a human form, but he had a strange beastly face, and... With a pair of claws! That is, this pair of beast claws, and soon after, a blow pierced Li Yi's chest! And I... was dragged by Li Yi to escape, but later... Caught up again, I am... I escaped by pretending to be dead! ”
Speaking of pretending to be dead, Wang Li lowered his head in shame, he knew that as a warrior, this was a shame!
Ouyang Mu patted him on the shoulder and comforted him softly:
"It's not your fault, it's foolish to fight to the death knowing that you are invincible! You can save your life and come back to report the news, you are also a hero! ”
Ouyang Mu paused for a moment, and then said:
"It's... How strong is it? ”
“… Very strong, both of us are... B-grade, but in the hands of the other party... It's just one round, and the other party... Apparently not trying his best, he's very fast... More... It's more like it's playing with us! I doubt it... Probably surpassing the Super E-Class! ”
Ouyang Mu had already guessed that this mysterious murderer should be the black shadow he inadvertently discovered that night, but he didn't know if the other party was a master who participated in the beast attack!
"If you think about it, are there any other details?"
Wang Li lowered his head and pondered, and after a moment shook his head:
"It's gone...! I've never seen him... To escape, before and after using ... Just less than five minutes, and... No other anomalies were found, and Li Yi... There may be more to discover, but he..."
Saying that, Wang Li spoke in a low tone, obviously the death of his teammate was also a big blow to him!
Ouyang Mu nodded and said that he understood, it was a miracle that he could save his life when he encountered such a powerful opponent...
“… No, there's a... Abnormal! ”
But it was Ouyang Mu who was pondering, but Wang Li suddenly remembered other clues!
"Oh~? What clues? ”
Ouyang Mu was curious!
"When I first arrived, I vaguely heard a staccato voice coming from the other party's mouth, as if to say: Report... Enmity! ”
“… Avenge?! ”
Ouyang Mu frowned, revenge? Is there a grudge against Li Yi? Still is?
This clue is very important, at least you know the purpose of the other party!
"Wang Li, what you said is very important! Provided important clues for our investigation, thank you! ”
Ouyang Mu knew in his heart that although this clue let them know the other party's purpose, it was more of a fog over the investigation!
Wang Li's eyes showed confidence, nothing can inspire a person's self-confidence more than making people feel useful!
Then Ouyang Mu asked Wang Li to take a good rest, and he said goodbye and left!
Back in the tent, Ouyang Mu fell into deep thought...
His and Li Zhuang's speculation was confirmed, which should have been a happy thing, but he couldn't be happy anyway!
S-class, this mountain, he couldn't breathe...
