Chapter 72 Repair and Request for Assistance
Li Yi was panting heavily at this moment, his body covered in blood. Looking at the more than three-meter-tall man-bear lying in front of him without any movement, his heart filled with murderous intent gradually calmed down.
This thing is so hard to kill.
It was not on the same level as the beast he faced before. If he hadn't been wearing clothes made of dragon skin, he would have no chance of being a match for this thing. He would have been defeated at the first encounter. How could he possibly kill it with his bare hands?
But no matter what, Li Yi won in the end and the ferocious beast fell.
"Li Yi, how are you? Are you okay? Do you want to call an ambulance?"
"Where are you injured? How's your shoulder? Is it still bleeding?"
At this time Chen Hao immediately put down the sniper rifle in his hand and ran over, anxiously expressing his concern. He saw that Li Yi was covered in blood, and felt something was wrong. He was afraid that Li Yi would fall down like the bear man at this moment.
"I'm fine. I probably haven't suffered any serious injuries. The blood on my body is not mine. I've just confirmed that the beast is completely dead. The battle is over. Let's go and see how He Xiong is doing. He has been motionless until now. I'm afraid he can't make it through this." Li Yi waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.
At this time, Zheng Gong had already run to the unconscious He Xiong. He hurriedly checked the situation and immediately said, "He Xiong is not dead. He is still breathing, but he is seriously injured. His arm is almost broken and his head seems to have suffered a serious injury. I suggest that he be sent to the hospital for treatment immediately."
Wang Jian walked over with a shaky step. "Don't worry, the danger is not over yet. Chen Hao, search the area immediately to see if there is any trace of the giant Spider-Man from before. If you find one, shoot immediately. Engineer Zheng, you will be responsible for guarding the surroundings. Li Yi, thanks to you this time, otherwise we would all be dead. Can you move now?"
"no problem."
Li Yi moved his body around and found that he was generally fine except for some strained muscles and bruises.
"I'm sorry, I'm injured now and it's a little inconvenient for me to move. Can you move He Xiong and the body of the bear man to the car? The smell of blood here is too strong. We can't stay here. We have to leave this area as soon as possible." Wang Jian held his chest, cold sweat on his face, obviously he was seriously injured.
After all, he didn't have clothes made of horned dragon skin, and it would not be comfortable to withstand the attack of the bear-man.
"It's a small matter, as long as everyone is okay."
Li Yi nodded without hesitation. He immediately picked up He Xiong carefully and put him into the loader.
The body of the bear-man was the trophy of this operation and could not be just discarded here, so he stuffed it into the car.
At this time, Chen Hao, who was holding a sniper rifle, said in a deep voice: "The huge Spider-Man disappeared. We couldn't find any trace of it on the nearby buildings. It should be that the noise of our fight just now disturbed it, so it ran away."
"It's a pity that I didn't fire that shot in time to eliminate the hidden danger. I have a feeling that that thing will cause a disaster." Wang Jian gritted his teeth, feeling that he had missed a good opportunity.
They were only a second away from firing a shot to snipe the strange Spider-man, but a bear-man suddenly appeared in the middle of the road. If it weren't for Li Yi, they would have been eaten by the oriole like a praying mantis.
"Wang Jian, there is no other danger nearby for the time being, it should be safe." Engineer Zheng, who was in charge of guarding the surroundings, also spoke at this moment.
"Ferocious beasts are territorial. Generally, there won't be two similar beasts in the same area. But we must be vigilant. The noise just now was too loud. I'm worried that something might be attracted here." Wang Jian took a deep breath at this moment. He felt the severe pain in his chest worsen.
If nothing unexpected happens, his ribs should be broken, and in this case he has lost his ability to move and fight.
Have to retreat.
Thinking of this, Wang Jian said again: "Engineer Zheng, you drive the car. This operation is temporarily suspended. We have to retreat and rest first."
After hearing this, the others did not object, but just nodded.
The mission started off badly, so we had no choice but to turn back.
Everyone got into the car immediately, then turned around and quickly returned along the route they had taken before to evacuate without any delay.
Inside the carriage, there was a strong smell of blood, including that of ferocious beasts and some heroic beasts.
Everyone was in a gloomy mood and no one said a word.
But Wang Jian suddenly said seriously: "Li Yi, thank you so much this time. You saved all of us. If it weren't for you, we would have been killed by this man-bear."
"No one can avoid encountering a ferocious beast. I just did my best." Li Yi said, "We are all teammates, so we should help each other."
"No, I saw everything you did. You were the first one to open the door and rush out to attract the attack of the beast. If it weren't for your behavior, we would never have been able to escape from the car alive. We would have been trapped to death by the man-bear who was waiting for us." Wang Jian said seriously.
"That's right, Li Yi, you saved all of our lives, and I won't say anything to express my gratitude. In the future, if you need me in any way, just let me know, and I will never refuse." Chen Hao also nodded in agreement, looking at Li Yi with eyes full of respect and gratitude.
It is said that adversity reveals the truth.
Only when faced with such dangers can we know who is trustworthy and worthy of entrustment.
And they are all very fortunate to have a teammate like Li Yi.
"You are too polite. I dared to take the risk only because I had clothes made of the skin of this extraordinary creature. I am not as great as you say." Li Yi just smiled and became humble.
Having said that, the gratitude of others towards Li Yi remains undiminished.
At this time, Zheng Gong, who was in charge of driving, said with shame: "I'm sorry, I didn't play any role and dragged everyone down." "Don't say that. In the end, didn't you want to lead the beast away by yourself to give everyone a chance to survive? You are also good, but you still need experience and growth."
Wang Jian patted him on the shoulder, encouraging the newcomer, telling him not to be discouraged and to cheer up.
But at this moment, the investigator's phone on Wang Jian rang again.
He picked it up and looked at it, and his face changed immediately.
"What happened?" Li Yi asked immediately when he saw that his face looked strange.
"There's a special situation over there, Captain Zhang, and we need support." Wang Jian's face was still grim.
"Is it serious?" Li Yi frowned.
Wang Jian whispered, "Captain Zhang Lei and many of his colleagues mistakenly entered a building while they were killing some ferocious beasts, and then they lost contact. Other investigators ventured in to look for them, but the result was the same as the captain's. They disappeared after entering the building."
"The situation is a bit strange. Now other investigators are moving over there, trying to carry out a rescue."
"Did you encounter a supernatural creature?" Chen Hao asked.
Wang Jian said, "I'm not sure. There was no sound of fighting or killing at the scene, and there were no traces of extraordinary creatures. We can only know the specific situation after we go there. Although we don't have the ability to act now, this incident has a big impact. I want to go and take a look."
"Wang Jian, we can't take any action under this circumstance. Let's just give up and hand it over to other colleagues." Chen Hao gave advice.
"You're right. It's indeed not suitable for us to continue the action in this state." Wang Jian did not refute Chen Hao, but just nodded slightly.
"In fact, we are not completely unable to move. If we send He Xiong to the hospital, we can still move. After all, the others were only slightly injured, not seriously." Li Yi said, and then asked: "The key is to see how serious your injuries are, whether you can still move, and whether you want to continue the mission."
Wang Jian touched his chest and said, "I can still move, but I can't do anything. Li Yi, you are the strongest here, what do you suggest?"
Li Yi shrugged and said, "I'm just an employee. I just need to go out on missions and get paid. If you really encounter a danger that you can't handle, I would still suggest running away. If you just want to go and take a look at the situation, I can go with you."
Wang Jian fell into deep thought.
After a moment, he spoke again: "Let's go to the training base. We'll drop He Xiong off there and someone will take him to the hospital. Then we'll change cars there and take a short break before going to support Captain Zhang Lei. I'm sorry for all of you this time, so I have to trouble you to follow me again."
After saying that, he sincerely apologized to everyone.
The others did not object and acquiesced to the mission continuing.
Because of the advance contact, when the vehicle returned to the training base, several instructors and medical staff were already waiting at the door.
As soon as the car stopped, someone came over and carried the injured He Xiong away. At the same time, a doctor helped Wang Jian check his injuries.
"You have three broken ribs, one of which almost pierced your heart. Fortunately, it's not serious. I will use bone adhesive to simply repair it for you, but you can't do strenuous exercise or fight with others after that, otherwise the injury will be aggravated and it will be very dangerous."
The doctor was experienced and immediately diagnosed Wang Jian's condition and started to give him some emergency treatment.
"It's good that I can move. Thank you, doctor." Wang Jian breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Yi was in good physical condition at the moment, but his body was covered in blood, so he found a fire hydrant nearby and turned on the water to wash himself.
As he shook his body, the accumulated water was thrown away and he became dry all over.
"By the way, can you help me change a car? My car smells too bloody and it's inconvenient to move around." Then, Wang Jian spoke to an instructor.
An instructor who knew Wang Jian immediately said, "Go ahead and drive my car. Be careful."
"Okay, thank you very much." Wang Jian nodded.
The few people did not stay for long. After a short rest, they changed a car and prepared to set off again.
Li Yi was also ready to take action. At this moment, the doctor who had examined Wang Jian suddenly came over and quietly put a small bottle of something like medicine into Li Yi's hand.
Li Yi was a little surprised and puzzled because he didn't know this doctor.
The doctor lowered his voice and said, "It's very good for the body. For military use."
Obviously, the doctor also realized during the short break that it was Li Yi who turned the tide, killed the bear man, and saved a whole car of people, so he wanted to help Li Yi within his ability.
Although the doctor's voice was very low, most of the people present were practitioners and could not hear it, but everyone pretended not to hear it.
"Thank you." Li Yi said gratefully and accepted the bottle of potion.
