Interstellar octopus cute

Chapter 24

Lan Xiao led the eleven guards and the soldiers replaced from the rear to stand on the front line for about 15 hours. At around 3 pm on the second day, the Zerg began to retreat.

Temporary truce--

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

The Zerg can eat the corpses of the same kind to temporarily replenish their physical strength, but humans can't. Whether it's healing agents, nutrients, or energy, they will be exhausted and need to be replenished, not to mention prolonged fighting without rest, even well-trained soldiers will be exhausted.

The temporary retreat of the Zerg does not mean safety, but at least it gives humans some respite.

"The first line is all withdrawn for repairs, the second line is changed in batches, and the third line is the last."

The marshal's extremely calm voice rang in everyone's ears through the battle channel, and everyone followed suit very quickly.

After confirming that the front-line personnel had been evacuated, Lan Xiao drove Alpha, and Qi Xiaojiu, who was carrying the mecha in his right hand and was about to charge forward, quickly retreated to the rear, followed closely by the eleven guards.

Being grabbed by the back of fate's neck, Qi Xiaojiu, who was about to resist, found that everyone was retreating quickly, and obediently suppressed his rebellious mentality, maintaining a very strange expression of enjoyment floating around in the air.

The marshal brought him back to the third line, and threw it directly to Yao Xing, "Battlefield rules a hundred times."

To be honest, if the battle lines were not tight, Qi Xiaojiu's "heroic behavior" would definitely not be able to pass a hundred battle rules.

Lan Xiao hurriedly left a sentence, and took the eleven guards back to the military base behind. Even if the front ceased temporarily, he still had a lot of things to do. Others can rest, but he can't.

Yao Xing looked at the blood-stained young man in front of him, and suddenly felt a little old.

"What's your name, boy?"

"???"

Yao Xing looked at Qi Xiaojiu's ignorant black eyes, paused for a second, and suddenly asked in Chinese in Fuzhi's mind.

Got it this time.

"Qi Xiaojiu."

"Comrade Qi Xiaojiu, in view of your previous performance, I think I will make an exception and accept you into the rescue team and become an official soldier. Are you willing?"

As the captain of the rescue team, he still has this bit of authority. The young man in front of him looks promising at first glance, and it would be best if he can be recruited now, otherwise he will definitely not be able to get his turn when he shines.

Qi Xiaojiu nodded, looked at Yao Xing halfway through and asked, "Do you know where Lan Xiao is? Is he okay now?"

The word Lan Xiao was spat out from the mouth of a recruit, Yao Xing didn't react for a moment.

"Um, the one who snuck you back just now is Marshal Lanxiao's mech Alpha."

Qi Xiaojiu, who had been busy saving people before, really didn't realize that his daughter-in-law was so close to him.

"Don't worry, the Marshal is now the most powerful man in the Human League, and he will be safe from any accident."

Yao Xing thought that Qi Xiaojiu was a fan of Lan Xiao. After all, there are recruits who come here every year because of the word Lan Xiao. Everyone wants to know something about Lan Xiao from the veterans, so Yao Xing doesn't think so. something is wrong.

Knowing that his daughter-in-law is fine, Qi Xiaojiu is suddenly not in a hurry to meet people, the little Aojiao in his heart has made a move, staggering, this time he must wait until Lan Xiao takes the initiative to find him and apologize to him before he forgives him .

The little octopus is very happy, he thinks he has made a very good decision.

Yao Xing stared blankly at Qi Xiaojiu's reaction——

With her hips akimbo, her head slightly raised, her eyes are arrogant...

Is it drugs?

"Come back to your senses, if you agree with me, report to the higher authorities now, and then you will be an official soldier of the rescue team."

"it is good"

Just after the communication here, a panting soldier suddenly ran up behind Yao Xing.

"Captain Yao, among the dozen or so most seriously injured soldiers in the base, some of them suddenly convulsed all over the body. The symptoms should be poisoning, but we injected the antidote but there was no reaction at all. You should go back and have a look."

Yao Xing was shocked after hearing this, and he called Qi Xiaojiu to board the rescue vehicle and head towards the base.

The more than 2000 people who came in the same batch as Qi Xiaojiu were all carrying out transport work between the third line and the second line. Because the third line should be the last to retreat, they are still on the battlefield at the moment.

As for Qi Xiaojiu, who was covered in blood, he couldn't see his original appearance when he followed behind Yao Xing. The people who came and went didn't recognize this newcomer for a while, and thought he was a soldier withdrawn from the front line.

Yao Xing asked about the situation while walking and took off his rescue suit. Inside was a white coat commonly used by doctors. He took out medical gloves from his pocket and put them on. The set of movements was smooth and smooth. Obviously, he had done it countless times.

"Have you tried all types of antidotes? Have you had a blood test? And..."

The dozen or so people were all staying in the bacteria compartment because of their serious injuries. Qi Xiaojiu, who was covered in blood and smelled like Zerg, stood outside consciously and didn't go in. He just looked at the rows of people lying inside through the glass.

These people were all saved by him with his own hands, and they were finally killed by insects. No matter what, he didn't want to hear the news of their deaths.

It's a pity that the bacteria isolation room is fire-proof and anti-theft, sound-proof and bullet-proof, Qi Xiaojiu standing outside can only see those people in white coats with stern expressions, walking back and forth in a hurry.

"Brother, what are you doing here with the pestle? If you are injured, go in for treatment. If you are not injured, go and tidy yourself up. The smell on your body is suffocating for three miles."

Someone patted on the shoulder, Qi Xiaojiu turned around and looked, it was a redhead, he saw the other's mouth opening and closing, he couldn't understand a single word that came out.

Seeing that Qi Xiaojiu was covered in blood and stench, the man thought he was a front-line soldier who had withdrawn, so he kindly reminded him, and left quickly after speaking, after all, everyone in the entire base is very busy now.

Qi Xiaojiu, who suddenly felt like an illiterate, suddenly felt that he needed to keep up with the times and learn a foreign language.

The little octopus, who decided to go up every day, continued to turn around and look at the bacteria compartment, only to find that the people inside had changed from being in a hurry to panic, and the testing instruments beside several hospital beds had changed from a wavy line to a bright red straight horizontal line. Wire.

Three minutes later, Qi Xiaojiu saw Yao Xing shaking his head at the other white coat with a serious face, said something, opened the door and walked out.

"What happened to them?"

As soon as Yao Xing opened the door, a 'person' with a blushing face and whose facial features could not be clearly seen rushed out in front of him. For a moment, he was so frightened that he even forgot the sadness before.

Fortunately, the quality of the heart is good, Yao Xing quickly reacted.

"Feel sorry."

Qi Xiaojiu felt a little blocked when he heard these two simple words.

Among the more than a dozen seriously injured soldiers, six have died of poisoning, and the remaining few have no signs of poisoning so far, but they are also under real-time monitoring.

It took only 3 minutes for those six people to die from poisoning. Their death made Yao Xing see an even more desperate fact. Now he has to tell the marshal.

"I will take time to type up your report. Now you go to the place where you gathered before and wait for other people. The base will make unified arrangements."

After finishing speaking, he passed Qi Xiaojiu and walked towards the top floor of the base.

Qi Xiaojiu looked at those six people whom he personally rescued and still hadn't escaped from the clutches of Hades, and pursed his lips, a little sad.

Humans are really fragile.

Lan Xiao was currently listening to various post-war reports and data in the command room on the top floor. When she heard that Yao Xing had urgent matters to call for him, she went to a small lounge next to her.

"You mean, the current Zerg has evolved toxins?"

After listening to Yao Xing's narration, Lan Xiao's complexion was very bad.

"Yes, the bad news is that the death rate of this unknown toxin is extremely high, and the death rate is extremely fast, because all kinds of antidotes in the alliance are ineffective. I have already extracted some blood samples for the scientific research team to step up their research.

The good news is that 13 people were rescued from the same batch of serious injuries. Except for the serious injuries, the remaining seven people have not yet suffered from poisoning or poisoning.

The biggest problem right now is that I'm not sure if the toxin is contagious, and—by what.

Once the contagion is confirmed, everyone in the base is likely to suffer. "

Lan Xiao paused for a moment, and told Yao Xing to keep it secret first, while he went out and returned to the command room.

"Proceed with the order to arrange all the wounded fighters today, those who have been in contact with Zerg blood or organizations on the surface of their bodies, and the rescue team personnel, all to be arranged in the fourth district."

The captain of frigate No. 1, Lan Zhuan, the head of the twelve guards, carried out Lan Xiao's order very quickly, and then walked to Lan Xiao's side and asked what was going on.

Lan Yan is the child of the housekeeper of the Lan family. He is two years older than Lan Xiao, and he can be regarded as a calm elder brother.

"The Zerg has evolved an unknown toxin."

In a short sentence, Lan Zhuan understood the importance and danger of it.

The previous evolution of the Zerg basically focused on defense. Although there are toxins, they are not serious. The antidote in the alliance can fully deal with them, and Lan Xiao can order them to be quarantined. It seems that the severity of the unknown toxins this time is unimaginable.

Lan Xiao didn't have time to worry about Lan Zhuan's thoughts, he was giving orders quickly.

"Song Zifei, you personally lead the team to collect some different blood tissues and come back. Remember to wear protective clothing and absolutely not touch them. After collecting them, send someone to the Central Academy of Star Sciences immediately."

"Yes"

The captain of No. 2 frigate, Song Zifei, the second member of the twelve guards, immediately picked a few people to get on the mecha and rushed out of the base after receiving the order.

On the other side, Qi Xiaojiu, who was in a low mood, was following Yao Xing's words and walking towards the training ground, but he was suddenly stopped by several tightly packed soldiers halfway there.

Due to the language barrier, Qi Xiaojiu, who could barely guess the intention of coming from the other party's movements, finally understood in a daze after tossing for a long time that the other party seemed to be taking him somewhere.

As a result, the big demon was forced to transfer to the fourth district.

Being 'escorted' all the way to the fourth district, Qi Xiaojiu, who passed countless rooms, was surprised to find that there were more or less people in each room, some were injured, some were not injured, but their bodies were still stained with blood of.

He was sent all the way to the room at the end. When he opened the door, he found that they were all wearing rescue uniforms, and everyone had a look of hopelessness on their faces. Well, it looked like they were recruits from the same batch as him.

Because the faces of veterans only produce fatigue and heartache after the war, not the gloomy life.

All the way here, Qi Xiaojiu vaguely felt that something was wrong when he saw the wounded soldiers, soldiers covered in blood, and those who died, but he couldn't tell the specifics.

After looking around, I found that no one in the room had black hair and black eyes, so I resentfully restrained my thoughts on communication, found an empty place and sat down against the wall.

After tossing and tossing for so long, he was really a little tired.

Closing his eyes, Qi Xiaojiu, whose consciousness started to get a little dazed, always felt that he had overlooked something very important, until he was pushed awake, and a bottle of nutritional supplement was stuffed into his hand——

Gollum~

Really fragrant!
