"Jarvis, did the captain tell you?"

The door to the tent where Captain Murphy was.

Sergeant Mars stood here, waiting for Lenovo.

He turned his head when he heard the movement of the door curtain and saw Li Nuo coming out of it.

Leno had just finished talking to Captain Murphy, and at this time he was just thinking about going back to the camp to rest, get some hot water, rub his body, and make up for sleep.

But it's a pity that the slightly plump Miss Murphy obviously doesn't want him to be idle.

Leno and Mars walked to the stairwell together and said:

"Chief Mars, Captain Murphy, said that the first booster was the most likely to have adverse effects after the injection, and that it would take several days of rest before going outside. She told me to go to the medical department of the Legion Fort as soon as possible to get an injection, so as not to affect the subsequent Legion mission. ”

Sergeant Mars nodded:

"Yes, she's right. The incidence of adverse reactions is as high as 95%, and basically everyone will have relatively mild symptoms such as retching, dizziness, and fatigue, and severe people may also have photophobia, water intolerance, fear of wind, and high fever. Generally speaking, it takes about 10 days after the first shot to go out, otherwise you are likely to develop a strange immune disease. ”

Li Nuo frowned slightly:

"The chance of adverse reactions is so high, it sounds dangerous. Are there any cases of death after this injection? ”

"You can rest assured." Sergeant Mars smiled and said with relief:

"When MI3 was developing the strengthening agent, it laid out a special protection mechanism... Well... Let me think about what those jargon say..."

Sergeant Mars said in thought:

"I heard from the nurses in the medical department that the so-called adverse reactions are actually immune reactions that occur during the first modification of the human body by the fortifying agent. When the strength of the immune response reaches a critical value that the human body can bear, the active ingredient of the strengthening agent will disintegrate due to hyperthermia. As a result, the active ingredients of the agent will become ineffective and the body's immune system will gradually return to normal. ”

Sergeant Mars snapped his fingers:

"So, you can understand it this way, the longer the adverse reaction lasts after the injection, the longer the active ingredient will take effect, and the better the effect will be on the first modification of the human body.

In fact, it is true. MI3 once made a statistic that the sergeants who could be promoted to the third-order "Imperial Fist" had adverse reactions for more than 10 days when they were injected with the first booster injection, without exception. What's more, it has reached 15 days, which is the theoretical limit of the human body. Therefore, MI3 regards the duration of adverse reactions as an important indicator to observe the development potential of sergeants. ”

Leno asked:

"And how long did you have a bad reaction at that time?"

Sergeant Mars smiled awkwardly:

"Hey, I almost made it to day 10. I was a little unhappy and had a fever on the afternoon of the 9th day. By the evening of the same day, my body was back to normal and all the adverse effects were gone. Now that I think about it, I'm really a little unwilling, a high fever that comes and goes quickly, directly destroys the active ingredients in my body..."

As Sergeant Leno and Sergeant Mars chatted, they made their way through the stairwell, the second and first basement floors, and finally returned to the surface and got into the steam locomotive.

The steam locomotive made its way through the potholed ground and soon came to the garrison of Alvin's army.

Sergeant Mars did not get out of the car.

He chatted with the soldiers standing guard.

The soldier ran to Sergeant Alvin's tent and returned with an extra remote in his hand.

Sergeant Mars took the remote control, flicked the steering wheel, and walked around the station, heading straight for the Legion fortress on the horizon.

He aimed at Li Nuo and pressed the button on the remote control, removing the electric shock collar from the opponent's neck.

Li Nuo looked at the electric shock collar that slipped off his neck and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

He tried to deconstruct the shock collar before, and the system said that it required 300 energy points to fully deconstruct it.

Li Nuo couldn't muster up so much energy in a short period of time.

Moreover, even if the result is deconstructed, he may not be able to remove the shock collar.

Only by catering to the imperial army can we get the opportunity to untie the electric shock collar in the shortest possible time.

Now, his efforts have paid off.

From the time of crossing to the present, in less than 24 hours, he lost the shock collar.

The freedom he bought in exchange for forbearance was something he cherished.

This was an important part of his plan to escape from the Land of Suffering.

"Congratulations, Jarvis. From now on, you'll be able to move as a soldier. We would have waited until the corpse of 1079 was opened, Lieutenant Thre had obtained the life essence inside, and the spoils had been distributed to Sergeant Alvin, before we could return to the fort with the rest of the army.

"However, since Captain Murphy has orders, then I'll take you first. Otherwise, we'll be delayed for three or four days. ”

Li Nuo touched the shock collar that remained at the body temperature and nodded:

"Yes, sir."

Sergeant Mars drove the car and said:

"Captain Murphy told me that your treatment will be arranged according to the Legion's Private Private. Stay in the 'Dash Hour' for free once every six months, up to three days at a time. There is hot water, drinks, food, unlimited alcohol and cigarettes. And, of course, the indispensable pleasure service. Once you've gotten past the adverse effects of the booster injections, you'll be able to experience it at the inn.

"In addition, in the entire legion fortress, as long as there is no sign at the door that says 'no entry', you can go in and go around, artificial indoor gardens, underground hot spring pools, shop paths, etc..."

"Is there a library?" Li Nuo interjected and asked.

"Huh? Library? Sergeant Mars glanced sideways at Lenovo:

"There is no library, but there is a reading room. But there are only books left about the undead. Entertainment books such as novels, poetry collections, and illustration books have long been hidden by a soldier, and it is estimated that there will be these things in private shops. ”

"There are only books about the undead... Well, that's enough. Li Nuo nodded slowly:

"I just wanted to brush up on this knowledge. After all, I've had to live here for decades, and of course I'll have to find out what my neighbors are. ”

Sergeant Mars shook his head and exclaimed:

"Eh, it's really a top student, learn wherever you go. I thought you'd be like the other soldiers, soaking in 'Dash Time' for three days in a row. ”

I still don't want to be a "fellow believer", it's dirty... Li Nuo digressed the topic and said:

"By the way, sir, I have one more question..."

"You say..."

The two talked all the way.

Li Nuo kept asking.

The problem revolves around the Legion Bastion.

From the public facilities of the Legion Fortress, to the basic situation of the Legion, to the current situation and dangers faced by the Kolabo Legion, these contents were all asked by Li Nuo.

Sergeant Mars patiently answered them one by one, which was to help Li Nuo make up some basic homework.

Chatting and chatting, Li Nuo's appearance and figure appeared in front of his eyes, and he thought of the calmness of the other party, which was obviously different from that of a girl, and couldn't help asking:

"Sir, Captain Murphy looks like he's young..."

"Aha, I knew you were going to ask this." Sergeant Mars winked and laughed:

"Do you want to say why she looks like a young girl who has just come of age, why she behaves so maturely, and became a captain at a young age. I can tell you why. ”

Li Nuo listened attentively.

Sergeant Mars went on to say:

"When promoted to the third-order 'Imperial Fist', there is a possibility that the phenomenon of reverse growth may occur. This was the case with Captain Murphy. After completing the reverse growth, her appearance will be fixed and will remain in the state at the end of the reverse growth phenomenon until the end of her life.

"The Captain Murphy we see now is actually her when she was younger, about 19 years old. But actually, hey, actually she's probably quite a bit older than us. ”

Li Nuo seemed to have an understanding, and his eyes flashed.

The system has determined that Martha Murfiah's age is about 19 years old.

In this way, "19 years old" here refers to the 19 years of physical age, not the real age.

Sergeant Mars waved his hand and said:

"Well, of course, Captain Murphy's appearance is just appearance..."

"Severe burns?" Leno spat out a word.

Sergeant Mars glanced at Leno with a slight surprise:

"She even told you this... Well, yes, yes, the outermost layer of her skin is fake, it's a layer of bionic skin, and the inner layer is her real skin, just like a severe burn. This is what the Death Storm left behind. ”

Li Nuo took a slight breath:

"She's such a brave forerunner."

"I think so too..."

Outside the car window, the faint sunlight was scattered from the horizon, and the sky became a little brighter.

It seemed that the sun was about to hang high in the sky, but the clouds still shrouded the Junction of Suffering, blocking out the sunlight that was supposed to shine on the earth.

Sergeant Mars was accustomed to the sight, and just glanced at the ruins on both sides of the road before withdrawing his gaze.

Li Nuo raised his head, his gaze fell on the clouds through the lathe, and he was faintly uneasy.

At some point, the amount of energy required to deconstruct the "abnormal clouds" has risen from 1,000 energy points per 1% to 1,050 points.

There is no doubt that the "abnormal cloud" has become stronger.

…

Korabo Legion Fortress.

This is a site left over from the ancient Tadis dynasty.

Using modern technology, the Empire of Tadis has renovated it from the inside out.

Patching gaps in the city walls with cement, feeding metal pipes into the walls, centralizing the installation of steam boilers underground, and so on.

An old military fortress that has been given a new form of life.

This was the second time that Leno had arrived at the steaming fortress.

It's still buzzing.

In the crowded streets, soldiers hurried through the white steam.

One by one, the steam trains docked on the platforms, unloading food and medical supplies from the hinterland of the empire, loading them with household garbage and medical waste, and embarking on their return journey in the waves and whistles.

As soon as Sergeant Mars drove his car into the fort, he had to stop in front of the crowd.

He turned the steering wheel, pulled up in the carport next to the city wall, and put his right hand on the back seat of the car to find a private's coat.

"Put this on. Your sin uniform is too glamorous. I'll take you directly to the medical department. ”

Leno changed into a private's coat and followed Sergeant Mars out of the car, pushing the crowd through to the Legion building.

The so-called building is actually a castle left over from an ancient dynasty.

There is a word that can be used to visualize its current appearance, and that is "a hedgehog that spews steam".

Countless metal pipes protrude from the stone bricks on the castle's surface, exposing their own pipe openings to the air, spewing white steam outward.

From a distance, the entire castle is enveloped in steam, like a sky fortress suspended in the clouds.

The humidity of the air is aggravated, and you can grab a handful of small droplets of water when you wipe it on the wall.

Li Nuo is not well adapted to this wet environment.

Sergeant Mars was not surprised.

He led Li Nuo into the front of the Legion Building, passed through the checkpoints guarded by the guards, and came to the third floor of the castle.

The décor of this place is similar to that of the inpatient department of a hospital.

After exiting the stairs, a metal gate stopped the unrelated people.

Sergeant Mars leaned against the glass window of the metal gate, peered in, and knocked on the door with the knuckles of his fingers.

After a while, a sweet-looking little nurse hurried over, pushed open the floodgates, and threw herself into Sergeant Mars's arms.

Li Nuo raised his eyebrows slightly...

That's why Sergeant Mars is so attached to the life of the Legion, right!?

What bullshit battle thrill, what illusory imperial glory, how can a girl matter?!

The little nurse was just about to say something to Sergeant Mars, when she suddenly noticed a stranger standing next to her, and a touch of crimson quickly spread from her cheeks to the base of her ears.

"This is Leno Jarvis, my team."

Sergeant Mars pointed to the nurse holding his arm and smiled sheepishly:

"She's Merlin Rocard, the nurse here. Just call her Merlin, she doesn't like being called by her last name, she thinks it's too masculine. ”

Li Nuo raised his hands and put them in front of him to compare the height of the two.

The difference is about ten centimeters.

Li Nuo nodded solemnly:

"Yes, yes, a good match. It just happens to be the height difference of 'knowing the roots'. ”

Sergeant Mars looked confused, not quite understanding.

Nurse Merlin was stunned for a moment, and her cute face turned red instantly.

She clenched her small fist and slammed it into Sergeant Mars's chest, then buried her face in the crook of his arm.

Sergeant Mars then understood the meaning of Lenovo's words...

"Hahaha~ It's just a little joke."

Hey, the aborigines of this world are really simple.

Li Nuo laughed in front of the blushing two.

After removing the shock collar, he was in a good mood.

The mood has improved not because he has been treated as a human being, but because he has taken an important step in the direction of freedom.

He knew very well in his heart that the Tatis Empire was closed and extremely xenophobic, and the totalitarian power of the emperor was displayed everywhere.

As an unstable factor, if you do not seek to get rid of suffering, you will have the only end of destruction.
