my slow journey to infinity.

Chapter 161 Amber (Two in One)

History will always show its grand side to the world.

However, a few simple lines in history books always require tens of millions of lives to write about.

Just like now, the alien invasion war taking place in the super city [Dorino] is bound to be a chapter in history that cannot be ignored.

This super city, which belongs to the intermediate civilization, has a complete social structure, rich resources, and most importantly, very advanced means of recording and disseminating modern information data.

Therefore, this war history will definitely be recorded in detail.

But if we narrow the perspective to a specific participant, then his life will hardly be known to future generations.

Unless, he is a hero unit.

"C0" is certainly not a hero, he is just an ordinary superhuman, the captain of a reconnaissance team whose car was stolen, and he belonged to the [Midtown Administration] before the war.

It was because he was too ordinary that he was sent to this dangerous area on the first day of the war to investigate clues of an unknown explosion.

Before setting off, the three teams they organized were ready for encounters.

The fairly good equipment and personnel configuration gave them the courage to act.

However, even though they had learned a lot of knowledge about warfare, they still underestimated the danger of the battlefield.

The former law enforcers were pitted by the experience of public security warfare.

They have never experienced this kind of war between civilizations and between worlds, nor have they seen such a tenacious enemy.

After being severely damaged by the first attack, these enemies not only did not panic or have their morale fluctuate, but they immediately and decisively launched a counterattack.

At the same time, the team members who came from the Administration had rarely seen a third-level transcendent who was so powerful that he could crush multiple people of the same level and even fight against military vehicles.

It’s just that these experiences and understandings came too late.

The vehicle was stolen, and the remaining team members who were ready for a last-ditch fight were wiped out in about five minutes.

The enemy from the abyss was so powerful that it made them despair.

Those [Armored Dragon Men] and [Oracle-Bone Monkeys] whose energy reactions were originally only at the second level are still at the second level now.

But they all turned into giant monsters four or five meters tall. Their huge size and ability to withstand injuries were the reasons why the Administration team was quickly defeated.

These behemoths have lost their original racial characteristics; their limbs, torsos and even faces have been covered and replaced by large amounts of crystal structures.

It seems that these crystals provide them with both physical and magical protection.

But what the Management Bureau team could not have imagined was that the "fusion species" commander on the Turbid Abyss side was not having an easy time either.

As the battle came to an end, the Fusion Species had already begun to sort out the battle report with a serious look on his face. He needed to check the team's resources and confirm what could be recovered, but -

"Fuck, it's almost completely destroyed..."

Cursing inwardly, the fusion commander closed the battle report page angrily.

The Asian dragon people and wise apes who served as the vanguard were all wiped out, and the only conventional long-range unit was also blown to pieces by machine guns the moment the battle started.

The sudden encounter left the fusion species without even the extra resources to [summon] its only two ranged weapons.

But now it seems that the impact is not that big. After all, the special ability [Mystery·Awakening] is not a true resurrection, but a kind of overload consumption.

These terrifying beasts that seem to be invincible at the same level and can even attack across levels are actually burning their residual souls.

Any individual awakened by this [Mystery], even if they are just seriously injured and unconscious, will continue to burn their souls until they are completely burned out, and their bodies will dissipate without even leaving any dust.

Some people always compare soldiers to currency.

This is not a derogatory statement, but rather a very vivid and neutral metaphor.

After all, all kinds of benefits and victories on the battlefield really require "spending currency" to earn, although it sounds a bit harsh, war always feels like gambling.

But this metaphor does not mean that commanders can squander the lives of soldiers at will. The commander's own "value" is based on the soldiers under his command. A general without soldiers is worthless.

Therefore, the fusion commander was particularly depressed. A simple rescue mission caused him to lose almost all of his savings.

Contrary to the stereotype, the [Abyss Forces] are an orderly civilization, and their culture and military system are not barbaric and crude.

Or rather, they are a little too orderly.

The professional and orderly military system architecture, coupled with the "command and combat system" specific to the squad level, has created their agile and powerful combat capabilities - as well as a lengthy [review-rationing] system.

Thanks to the powerful computing power of advanced civilizations, their military structure is supported.

The complex and orderly military structure is what makes fusion commanders uncomfortable.

Now it needs to complete the original rescue mission before it is eligible to report the battle damage and apply for team reinforcements.

Otherwise, if the mission fails, combat points are deducted, and its own team is close to destruction, the team number will really be revoked.

At that time, the fusion species will also be allocated back to the [War Resource Pool] and become a resource for replenishing other teams.

If it wants to gain command again, it will need to accumulate combat points again.

In the fusion vision, the automatic settlement of the integrated command panel is still running, and the rescue mission does not show failure, so it still has a chance.

However, before repositioning its target, it has a small thing to do, which is to finish off those enemies who are still alive.

This is not out of any personal resentment on the part of the fusion species.

Calm thinking is a basic quality for a spellcaster and commander. Even if the team is destroyed, even if they are really angry, the fusion species will not do anything unnecessary on the battlefield.

Now it just has to execute one of the "wartime rules", which is:
[When there are no conditions to capture or control prisoners, it is imperative to kill all enemy extraordinary people. ]

The extraordinary people themselves are also very important resources. If they cannot be taken away, they must of course be confirmed to be destroyed.

While controlling the behemoth to finish off the enemy, the fusion species is also recycling the crystal branches on the behemoth. That is their final value and they must be harvested before they burn out.

However, the focus of resource recovery is still the three [Abyss Beetles] that are still intact.

Beetles are far more expensive than conventional combat units, and any commander who can afford them will have to wait for resources to be allocated.

Generally speaking, a squad-level combat unit is more than enough to be equipped with one beetle.

But coincidentally, this rescue mission coincided with the rotation of the fusion species, so it brought all its belongings with it. The most valuable of them were the four beetles it had accumulated over the years.

It was precisely this coincidence that gave the fusion species a chance to make a comeback after being ambushed.

These cute little guys can not only enhance the effects of spells, expand the energy transmission channels of the Abyss, and provide battlefield computing power, but also provide active support and share the defense pressure of the entire team.

This is a truly powerful combat unit, a real plug-in.

Unfortunately, the encounter came too suddenly, and the fusion species had no time to hide its beetles. As a result, one of the beetles was inexplicably touched away.

The entire process was quiet and quick, from the rapid decay of communication signals to their complete cessation.

But the fusion species noticed it at the first moment. After all, the integrated computing power dropped sharply, and it was hard not to notice it.

However, at the time, it was fully focused on maintaining the frontal battle situation and could not pay attention to other things, so it could only issue the order to "enhance active defense."

This is the commander's helplessness.

Analyze the battle situation, allocate resources, and choose tactics.

When resources are limited, tactical choices must be made. To use an analogy that is not quite appropriate, such choices are similar to gambling.

But the good news is that the fusion species won the bet again this time.

The other beetles were not wiped out, and the entire encounter was quickly resolved under its calculations.

So now it has the right to feel sorry for the war damage instead of lying on the ground and losing everything.

But now when I think back to the situation at that time, all the battlefield information gives it a weird feeling.

That kind of attack effect didn't seem to be the work of a scout or an assassin.

Assassin-type combat units are extremely purposeful and their methods are more violent...but the experience of the missing beetle gives people a sense of meticulousness as if it was being manipulated by a spellcaster.

Eh... yes, that's the feeling!
Yes, yes, yes. First, the energy transmission rapidly attenuated, and then the communication channel was blocked, so the beetle did not send out the attack alarm in the first time!

After that, the [Dream Network] and the short-range "Thinking Network" completely collapsed.

Finally, the individual characteristics of the "beetle" completely disappeared - yes, yes, yes! There was also a hint of spatial fluctuation!
No! That's not right... Isn't this memory a little too real?!

The fusion species turned around in surprise, just in time to see the three beetles that had not yet exited the "Insect Tower Form" were sealed in three huge crystal jars in an invisible state!

"Enemy attack! Red mark!"

The fusion species subconsciously marked the specific location with a command mark and issued an attention order in the team channel of its own communication network.

But it also immediately realized that it was the only living combat unit in this channel.

The giant beasts made of flesh, blood and crystal that have been [awakened] have no individual consciousness. They need special [spell channels] to receive simple commands.

The three beetles whose links had been completely disconnected were responsible for maintaining the spell channel and command transcoding!

The behemoths that were still finishing off the enemy in the previous second suddenly crashed. The imbalance in their body structures caused them to fall directly to the ground, and the communication fluctuations of their spell models caused them to begin twitching inexplicably.

The fusion species didn't have time to update the spell model of [Mystery·Awakening], it immediately flew forward a distance, lowering its own hovering altitude, and quickly cast a range spell!

A rare spell array quickly unfolded at his fingertips and then dissipated immediately.

At the same time, a large number of blue-black crystal spikes instantly covered a small area of ​​the sky. These spikes poured towards the target area at a very high speed like a rainstorm!

Ding--

Right in front of the area attack spell, there was suddenly a crisp sound of metal clashing.

With a flash of thought, the fusion species immediately locked onto the source of the sound. It was the sound of a dozen small square metal boxes that looked like lighters popping out from the cracks in various parts of the ruins, and then -

boom! boom! boom!
The violent explosions almost overlapped! A contradictory feeling of rapidity and lingeringness dulled the perception of everyone present.

A huge shock wave, outlined by dust, burst out with bright flames, and all living and dead things nearby were immediately blown away.

The captain of the Administration team, "C0", who was still alive, was also thrown far away in the torrent of bricks and concrete.

The piercing explosion made him dizzy and nauseous, and the violent shock wave caused his mouth and nose to bleed.

Bad... His internal organs were injured under the protection of the [Comprehensive Alchemy Array], which means that the array in his body has been damaged.

In other words, he has now not only lost his inner recovery ability, but also lost most of his inner extraordinary protection.

Coupled with the inability to move his body, C0's defense ability is almost zero.

Now even an ordinary person can kill him easily.

This was the case for C0, which was far away from the center of the explosion. Naturally, the fusion species near the center suffered a more severe impact.

In fact, the fusion species had been swept up by the shock wave and crashed heavily into a higher ruin.

It's just that the gray light film flickers around it, and the third-level spell shield provides it with quite good physical protection.

The cost of this protection is the temporary overload of the shield spell model and 50% of the maximum energy value of the fusion.

For the spellcaster, this is already a heavy blow.

In a short period of time, the fusion species should have recovered its condition, but it still rushed out, rushing towards the smoke that had not yet dissipated.

The three crystal jars are slowly dissipating, it cannot accept such a loss!

After the fusion species quickly rushed out for a distance, it immediately grasped the void. Energy invisible to the naked eye surged within its sight and quickly condensed in its right hand.

The gray "Magic Medium Ring" on the ring finger of his right hand glowed, but soon, the fusion species stumbled in the air!
It missed!

This is...real spatial ability!

After discovering the spatial features, the fusion species immediately guessed that—

The enemy used props such as secret cards and encapsulated space abilities, so they could launch sneak attacks without anyone noticing.

The fusion species has encountered many similar situations, so it very reasonably chose the "Turbid Abyss Version" of [Hand of Law Breaker].

This spell, specifically targeting exogenous-driven abilities, interrupts the casting of spells by severing the relationship between the caster and the medium.

The spell that had always worked gave "failure feedback" for the first time.

As he staggered, the fusion species was sweating profusely.

It immediately realized that what it was facing seemed, perhaps, probably, to be an extremely rare and extremely disgusting - "space caster".

Suddenly I realized, felt unwilling, and then relieved.

The fusion species stood still in the air, watching the team it had managed for many years completely disappear. A feeling of powerlessness filled its heart, and it was completely unable to find the enemy's location.

In fact, space spellcasters are not difficult to deal with.

Large-scale supernatural powers such as certain [Mysteries], [Mysteries], [Super Arrays], or clearly targeted [Ritual Spells] and [Curses] can severely damage or even directly kill these [Phase Dogs].

But unfortunately, these abilities are either too complicated or too unpopular, and the fusion species do not have them.

In normal military operations, the Fusion species are not afraid of [Phase Dogs] at all.

It can apply for specific [Mysterious Ritual] resources in real time through the war network, which is the so-called [Remote Supernatural Assistance].

However, the [Forward Base Core] that is closest to it was bombed into ruins not long ago, and its "long-distance communication network" is now intermittent. It is not certain that the battle report of this encounter can be sent out, let alone remote assistance.

The melancholy mood quickly faded away, and the fusion species quickly recognized the reality. It began to slowly float backwards, and while being on guard, it was also planning an evacuation route.

It's time to slip away...

Even if the team was wiped out, even if they might become "medium resources" in the future, the fusion species did not want their lives to end here.

While running away, the fusion species took one last glance at the ground. In addition to those giant beasts that were beyond saving, it also sensed the enemies that were still alive.

Almost subconsciously, the fusion species slightly stretched out his left hand, tapped his fingertips in the air, and three pen-sized crystal spikes quickly condensed and were immediately fired out!

It doesn't mind spending a little more energy to take away these despicable initiators of encounters.

C0 was not surprised by the sudden attack of the fusion species.

C0 was not sure what accident had just happened, but he could see that the powerful abyss creature was still active, at least on the surface, it was almost unharmed.

The opponent has been trying to kill them all, and C0 has long been in despair.

The crystal spikes that were shooting towards him became slow and clear in his dying senses. This was not C0's dying explosion. With this clear perception, his body became equally slow and heavy, and there was no way to avoid it.

However, when the spike approached, it inexplicably stopped before penetrating into C0's forehead!
C0 looked at the familiar dark blue light film in front of him in a daze. Is this... [Force Field·Kinetic Shield]?
Whether in school or after work, he had studied this spell in detail. Of course, he learned how to use such spell props.

But this does not prevent C0 from reciting the effects of this spell by heart.

[Kinetic Shield]: Almost 100% immunity to kinetic damage, with an extremely high damage threshold.

Under pure kinetic damage, this mere second-level spell can withstand kinetic attacks equivalent to fifth-level energy density. This special effect directly cuts off the rapid-fire technology tree for firearms.

Now, this magical skill is protecting him.

Ok? !

The fusion commander who was about to leave also paused.

It didn't notice that the attack had failed, but the rapid change in the surrounding energy environment made it shudder, because its perception was sounding the alarm - [The energy of the Turbid Abyss is being excluded from the main world! ]

The fusion creature suddenly turned around and looked up and behind it, but its sight was blocked by a shadow that was approaching at high speed. Before it could react...

Click—boom! The two crashes were over.

The first sound was very slight; it was the sound of the glimmer shield breaking.

The second sound was much louder. It was the sound of the fusion species being crushed into the ground. A small-scale shock wave spread out, directly clearing a small area of ​​ruins.

C0, who survived the disaster, stared blankly at the crystal spikes that kept disappearing in front of him. As if he had a last burst of energy, he suddenly sat up.

The light was dim, but C0 immediately noticed the faintly glowing pillar not far away, and the sparse figure sitting on top of it.

The worn gray iron windbreaker swayed in the breeze like a flag, and underneath the windbreaker was an equally worn gray metal armor. Although it looked very similar to their soft armor, C0 felt that it was definitely a set of "mobile armor" of a high level.

The mysterious man's head armor turned into light flakes in the breeze, revealing the weathered face of a middle-aged man.

The other party had no intention of coming down to communicate, nor did he leave directly, and did not even glance at the C0 position.

The boss simply took out a cigarette from his equipment slot and lit it. The flickering flame illuminated the dark red blood-scab-like digital symbol on his head.

【7】

C0 didn't dare to speak out loud.

What is this? Is it the legendary angel? But shouldn't the angel be wearing a halo?!
"Are you from the Administration?"

A dull questioning voice came from the side and rear, interrupting C0's wandering thoughts. C0 looked back blankly, only to find that there was another person beside him.

Another man.

Unlike the angel uncle on the pillar, the new man was dressed very casually, had no armor on his body, and carried no weapons. He didn't even look like a supernatural being.

But it is obvious that this guy is in the same group as the decadent angel uncle on the pillar next to him.

In the solemn atmosphere, C0 didn't have the energy to think too much. Seeing that the other party was human and had killed the enemy of Zhuoyuan, he confessed with some difficulty:

"We are... [Central City Administration] F District Security Supervision Force... Wartime reorganization [Administration FC015 Comprehensive Combat Brigade·Special Reconnaissance Force], team identification code [FC01510C]. While investigating an abnormal explosion, we encountered the enemy forces of the Turbid Abyss. May I ask..."

After a brief explanation, C0 swallowed the subsequent questions.

He had already realized that these two heroes were probably not regular members of the [Dulin Council], and that the [Administrative Bureau] to which he belonged had always had a reputation of being a bit, uh, bad.

Therefore, when communicating with non-staff bosses, it is best to talk less and ask fewer questions, so as not to arouse the other party's disgust.

However, the boss didn't care much about it. Instead, he introduced himself very openly:
"I'm Redundant, the combat instructor of the Tree of Origin High School. You can call me Brother Hui. I don't belong to any unit right now, so don't be shy. Saving you is just a matter of convenience.

But considering your situation, if you don't return to the camp as soon as possible, these injuries will cost you your lives.

It just so happens that I need the military atlas of Area F, as well as your construction progress and intranet permissions. Let's share what we have, and it will also give me a reason to save your lives."

After hearing what Brother Hui said, C0 was confused again.

It turns out that he was not the only one who survived!

Hot tears unconsciously flowed down his ashes-covered face. Almost without hesitation, C0 shared all the intelligence and the intranet permissions of the F theater. He completely ignored the confidentiality agreement he had signed before departure.

If this can save his life and the lives of his teammates, C0 is willing to bear the trouble that follows.

The team leader’s authority is not high, but for Brother Hui who just rushed back to Area F, it is more than enough.

"Let's take a brief rest and treat our injuries. In twenty minutes, we will go to the C-level camp numbered 015."

After saying this, Brother Hui leaned casually against a collapsed wall and began to read various information carefully.

The sky had completely darkened, and without any lighting facilities, the ruins of the central city were left with only terrifying darkness and a real chill.

C0 dare not rest too much.

He took out a tactical glow stick from the tactical slot of the soft armor, and after lighting it up, he used the weak light source to treat his injuries.

Internal injuries are difficult to treat quickly, but with the help of various drugs, C0 temporarily lost his perception of pain and regained his ability to move.

After that, he immediately found three surviving teammates.

The good news is that his good brother C6, the warrior he calls "Owen", is one of the survivors!

But the bad news is that C6's injuries are very serious. His extraordinary body has completely stopped functioning, and his bones and internal organs are extensively damaged, probably accompanied by severe internal bleeding. Without professional treatment, he may not survive for more than an hour!

"Two... My Lords (honorific titles with the nature of titles)!

My brother is seriously injured, can we leave now? If you have a vehicle, I would also like to rent it. "

C0 was already quite polite. He didn't ask for anything for providing the information, and he even used the word "rent" when requesting the vehicle.

When Brother Hui heard C0's request, he turned his attention to the angel uncle on the pillar.

The uncle noticed the gaze and finally spoke:

"Are you sure you want to turn back... If we don't deal with that [God's Blessed One] today, the price will be different after midnight.

Oh, and a direct attack on the forward base will also cost extra money."

mercenary?
This term immediately popped up in C0's mind.

But in his experience, there would never be strong people of this level in the mercenary industry.

Only those extraordinary people who are neither high nor low will plunge into the quagmire of mercenary teams. People with abilities will always have more stable jobs.

And the dark red blood-scab-like number floating above the uncle's head always makes C0 feel familiar...

"We've known each other for so many years, but you still have this bad habit of haggling over every penny...Okay, okay, money is not a problem, and changing plans is an inevitable result.

So, quickly get a vehicle out, and let's go contact the city council's troops first."

Brother Hui complained as he walked into the range of the tactical glow sticks.

He had just finished reading the battle report, glanced at the three wounded soldiers lying there, and casually complained:

"Tsk, you three full-strength squads, plus two military vehicles, were actually wiped out by a lightly armed squad... Even if you were forced to do something, you shouldn't be so cowardly. Are your extraordinary bodies made of cardboard? Are your weapons toys?

Moreover, have you never understood the composition of the Turbid Abyss faction? Why would you want to fight to the death with a group of "ritual creatures"?
Tsk, I really can't blame you. Come on, Luke, take a look at their training manual and intelligence library. You expect to resist the invasion of the Abyss with just these few pages full of mistakes and omissions?

Oh, this is a good opportunity. Didn't your boss sell information to the parliament?"

"The price hasn't been agreed upon yet, probably."

The decadent angel uncle called "Luke" simply responded.

The few wounded people in the fluorescent range did not realize that Luke had approached them until they heard his voice.

What followed was an inexplicable feeling of suffocation.

Luke glanced at the four wounded men. Three of them who were still conscious were shaking unconsciously, like frightened birds or animals.

Luke shook his head slightly, with no desire to communicate at all. He took out a card from the slot on his waist, flicked his finger, and the card spun out lightly.

The card flew a short distance before a dim ball of light bloomed in an open space. After the glow faded, a simple vehicle inside was revealed.

Judging from the appearance alone, it is a small van, but the armor layer and weapon station on the outside of the vehicle body are a bit inconsistent.

Luke went straight into the cab. Hui sighed helplessly and had to help C0 carry the other three seriously injured people himself.

"I...I can move. I'm not hurt inside. I've recovered a little, cough... cough!"

The member of the Central City Bureau team who was placed on the edge had already sat up. As he spoke, he took off his soft armor helmet, revealing his young face stained with blood.

His dark blond hair and irises, fair complexion, and delicate facial features give him a somewhat weak androgynous beauty.

C0 paused, his mind a little confused after taking the medicine, but he remembered this handsome young man, who seemed to be a combat logistics personnel of Team B.

When the captain of Team B slipped away, he left all his team members behind.

C0 nodded silently, and the three of them moved two people and quickly closed the car door.

However, to C0's surprise, Brother Hui did not go to the front passenger seat, but sat in the car with them.

After a moment, the route data was bound and the armored truck started.

Vehicles with a low floating posture will not be bumpy, which is undoubtedly good news for the injured behind.

In the quiet carriage, C0 suddenly felt as if in a dream. He began to subconsciously recall the entire encounter. The cycle of despair and hope began to bombard his mind again.

Is the effect of the medicine wearing off...it shouldn't happen so quickly.

C0's mind was restless. He felt pain and weakness all over his body. He felt nauseous, but also a little hungry.

His thoughts became increasingly blurred, and his consciousness was pushed back further into the past, where it seemed as if the answer to some question was waiting for him.

The concept of time became chaotic, but C0 found it. It might be when he just became the supervisor of the Central City Bureau, or when he was in school, or even earlier. Anyway, he vaguely remembered that there was a book that said -

"After facing the fear of life and death, the extraordinary will be sublimated."

Oh, sublimation?

C0, whose mind was still confused, tightly grasped the increasingly soft right hand of his good brother Owen (C6). He did not feel any sublimation, he only felt that his brother was about to die.

C0 lowered his head as if he was praying, and was completely unaware of Hui Ge's eyes that were flashing with a faint blue light.

"Uh... cough, cough, we can't delay any longer, cough! C6's muscles are beginning to relax, and his vital signs are rapidly declining. Even if we return to the camp immediately, our C-class camp may not have enough medical resources.

Today is the first day of the war, the camp is still under construction, and the field hospital is definitely full of wounded soldiers!"

The one who spoke was the frail young man with dark blond hair.

"so?"

Brother Hui responded politely, and his dark blue eyes turned to the young man.

“So, let me try!”

The young man's eyes were very sincere. C0, who was receiving the information at a loss, then noticed that the young man was kneeling in the small space next to C6's head, with his hands on C6's neck and chest respectively.

"you……"

C0's mind and spirit were still sinking, and he found that he could no longer organize his words.

The young man didn't want to waste time at this point, so he assumed that C0 agreed and quickly explained while taking something out of the soft armor on his body.

“I’m a [Mechanic Brother], a prospective priest of the [Cult of the Stars, Mechanical Evolution Society]. Although I’ve only studied mechanics, I’ve also passed the [Advanced] Modern Alchemy exam.

C6's current injuries are mainly due to the damage to the alchemical array in his body. I think as long as we can repair part of it and reactivate his extraordinary body, he will be able to hold on for a while longer, at least until we have enough medical resources!"

As he spoke, the young man had already taken out five metal cards engraved with alchemical arrays, as well as a small box of "full protection" standard.

He opened the small box and took out a round cake protected by a "vacuum sealing film". Then he tore open the sealing film very skillfully to reveal the contents.

It was a brand new alchemical silver coin, not a currency of money.

The young man took a deep breath slowly, as if trying to calm his mind.

Then, he snapped his fingers lightly, controlling the alchemical cards to float in front of him and unfold, forming a circle.

Light blue attributeless energy began to gather into lines in the air. The energy lines connected the five cards and also connected the seriously injured C6 who was lying flat on his back.

At this moment, the young man suddenly started to feel something, and then he searched his pockets in panic.

This time he pulled out a first aid medicine kit, took out a powerful sedative from it, loaded the medicine pellet into the syringe gun, and fired one shot at C6 first.

After C6 became even more limp, the young man continued to adjust the complex array in front of him.

His left hand passed through the circle formed by the cards, and energy lines began to extend, connecting him to the array. At the same time, his right hand held up the alchemical silver coin.

After a brief perception, the young man frowned and said:

“The situation is worse than expected. The main structure of the alchemy array has been completely damaged. His internal organs are severely damaged and he is bleeding badly. He needs surgery urgently.

Hmm... it's impossible to repair it. I can only temporarily build a new simple array to repair his blood vessels and organs first, then establish energy circulation and save his brain... With the interface of the old array, it shouldn't be too slow..."

After mumbling to himself, the young man moved his left hand, and the energy lines controlled the array to change. New array data began to be refreshed. Unfortunately, everyone present stared in confusion, completely unable to understand the subtleties of these operations.

At the same time, a small circular array bloomed on the alchemical silver coin held in the young man's right hand. Under the influence of the array, the alchemical silver coin began to melt and disappear at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Time passes quietly.

The vehicle was driving smoothly, and the cab and the carriage were silent, with only occasional electronic beeps.

That is the sound of the external computing core assisting in array calculations and submitting data.

Five minutes later, the alchemical silver coins in the young man's right hand were exhausted. He carefully paused the array engraving and took out the second alchemical silver coin from his pocket.

C0, who had regained some consciousness at this time, also looked at the coin.

He remembered that at the beginning of this operation, each team was allocated two alchemical silver coins, and their team's two were left on the previous battlefield.

C0 did not ask about the progress of the treatment. Now he could only trust this young man.

Another five minutes passed, and the complex external array suddenly began to flicker, and the young man's wristwatch-like computing core also began to ring:

Di-

[Script execution completed, array self-checking...Self-check completed, array started.]

The external array that connected the seriously injured C6, the card, and the young man with energy lines finally stopped flickering—it simply went out.

The card with the alchemical array engraved on it fell to the ground, and the young man who was kneeling seemed to have been drained of all his strength and he fell back.

But he didn't fall down, he just changed his sitting position and leaned against the lower edge of the seat behind him.

"Hu...Hu... Fortunately, the mission has been fulfilled. The new array has begun to operate. Its function is to replace damaged organs and maintain vital signs.

I haven't learned [Life Alchemy], so I can't generate flesh and blood or repair organs, so I can only use the array to reconstruct the internal circulation. The new array can last for about five days. The rest will be left to professional doctors."

While answering the questions written on everyone's faces, the young man took off all his soft armor.

The simple clothes he was wearing were soaked with sweat. He looked like he had been fished out of the water, and his dark blond hair had become listless.

Brother Hui looked at the young man with interest, then leaned back and closed his eyes to rest.

C0 also looked at the young man.

At this moment, he really wanted to express his gratitude, but he was really at a loss for words. C0 wanted to express it through body language such as kneeling, but the small compartment did not allow him to kneel down easily.

After a little hesitation, he finally squeezed out a sentence:
"Leave me your contact information, I will thank you sincerely."

The young man was stunned for a moment, then he showed a pure smile:
"What are you thanking me for? We are comrades who have lived and died together. The big guy is the vanguard and I am the combat logistics. We just did what we were supposed to do. If you really want to thank me, you can buy me a drink when the big guy recovers from his injury."

C0 was also stunned for a moment, as if he was baptized by that pure smile. He squeezed out a stiff smile on his numb face and continued to speak stiffly:
"Then, you still have to keep your contact information."

"Of course... Oh, the previous combat channel was disbanded by our captain. After I go back, I should be assigned to the [Reserve Pool]. The previous call sign "B5" can no longer be used.
