Chapter 50: The Living Ghost
evening.
The bottom prison of Xunguang.
The three guards lined up in a row, holding their chests and heads high, trying to make their stance look as standard and professional as possible.
"The two living materials you just sent are quite good, and the drug experiment was very successful. This is your reward."
The doctor wearing a mechanical mask opened the medical box he carried with him and took out a light blue candle as thick as his wrist and placed it on the table.
If you look closely, you will find a black spot the size of a thumb inside the candle, which looks like an insect sealed inside.
"This is......"
The guard captain guarding the prison asked.
"The aromatherapy made of zerg can relieve your body's fatigue and improve your physical quality to a certain extent, especially in that aspect. There is no need to light it, it will gradually evaporate over time."
Perot described its function in a calm tone, and when the guard on the opposite side heard that it actually had a strengthening effect on that aspect, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Which man would refuse this kind of "reinforcement"?
"Thank you for your reward!"
"Well, pay attention to safety at night. I have other things to do, so I'll leave first."
After closing the lid of the box again to cover up the identical Zerg fragrance inside, Perot turned around and left.
At the same time, the stern of the Xunguang.
A pair of palms covered with gravel climbed up the corners of the decorative statue protruding from the tail.
Yan Jing turned around and sat in the position where the statue's head was tilted forward, which was still about two meters high from the side of the stern of the ship.
In front of him were waves of sand that were churning as the Xunguang was moving forward.
The distant horizon swallows up the last ray of the setting sun.
Yan Jing took a breath, took off his blood robe and put it back into space, then took out a small knife.
Lu Wu's golden eye's [Early Warning] special effect made him aware of Perot's murderous intention against him in advance, but he did not make any resistance at the stern of the boat.
the reason is simple.
Yan Jing realized that he could not cooperate with Perot.
The latter, or the forces behind him, had no intention of finding the remains of Landis, let alone dividing the spoils with him.
To complete the event mission, Yan Jing must ensure that the Xunguang is not destroyed.
But if Perot's plan is revealed directly, although Perot's plan can be stopped, his identity will also be discovered.
What Yan Jing wanted was never to be appreciated by these guys who randomly experimented on people, he wanted something more practical!
It is precisely because of this that Yan Jing was thrown into the sea of sand.
Now, in the eyes of the prison guards, he was taken to the medical room. Joshua and others in the medical room were killed by him with his own hands. Perlot, the only one who knew his identity, sank him into the sea with his own hands, thinking that he was destined to die.
Suddenly.
Yan Jing became a living ghost.
His opportunity also came at this moment.
He raised the short knife in his hand, took a deep breath, and stabbed his shoulder and right chest violently, leaving several moderately deep blood holes.
The pain and blood loss caused Yan Jing's face to turn pale at a speed visible to the naked eye, but his strong physical fitness quickly suppressed the injury and stopped the bleeding.
The wound looks scary, but in fact it does not affect Yan Jing's actions.
There is one last step.
Move the short knife upwards and slash diagonally upward from the right corner of the mouth, breaking open the skin and revealing the teeth underneath.
Yan Jing's body was trembling because of pain, and the corners of his eyes were uncontrollably shining. But at this moment, he raised his chin, raised his eyes, and stared at the moon that was gradually brightening in the dark gray sky.
Yan Jing knew a long time ago that if you want to get the best things, you must work harder than ordinary people!
The short knife was retracted into the space again, and Yan Jing slowly raised his left hand in front of him, letting the blood from the wound on the corner of his mouth drip onto his chest.
A strange-looking mask of the Boar Spirit appears.
In addition to killing people in the medical room, Yan Jing had already received part of the compensation.
Shortly after.
The two soldiers in charge of the night patrol stepped into the stern deck of the ship while chatting, passing several wooden barrels stacked on top of each other.
Pang Rang~
Suddenly there was an unusual sound, causing the two men to hurriedly raise their guns.
Following the sound, they looked for it. When they saw the middle-aged man who was in a particularly miserable state behind the barrel, they used the searchlight on the ship to see his appearance clearly. The two of them immediately froze on the spot, and then rushed forward to check in shock.
"Sir Joshua, why are you here?"
"You must inform Mr. Rosser immediately. Someone... uh~ someone invaded the Xunguang. He made a sneak attack and took away my clothes... I suspect that he was sent by a certain force...
....There will definitely be various methods in the future.”
Panting hard, Yan Jing clenched the soldier's sleeves. Due to the wound at the corner of his mouth, it was difficult to even speak. He could only use a vague voice to describe his experience intermittently.
The soldier standing nearby was about to turn around and notify Rosser, but he was stopped by him as soon as he turned around.
"Wait, you have to stay hidden... You must not expose the fact that I am still alive to anyone except Mr. Rosser. If the intruder notices... the situation is extremely serious.
It might get completely out of control!”
"I understand, please don't worry, I will go and report to Mr. Rosser. John, you stay here to protect Mr. Joshua."
Realizing that the situation was urgent, the soldier said in a solemn voice with a straight face, turned around and left quickly.
"Help me find some clothes. Don't go to the medical room. You might bump into the intruder. I need your uniform to cover up."
After seeing one of them gone, Yan Jing turned to explain to the remaining soldiers.
"But your current state..."
"I'm a doctor. No one knows the condition of my body better than me. If you stay here, it will easily expose my existence. Go get your clothes immediately!"
"Please wait here, I will return as soon as possible."
As a ship's doctor and a scholar of the traceability school, it is not difficult for Joshua to order ordinary crew members.
After all the two soldiers left, Yan Jing immediately began to adjust his condition and raised his hand to pull at the wound to let more blood stay.
There is no way, being in good physical condition is also a troublesome thing at this time.
This was also the main reason why he specially asked for a set of clothes, so that he could be covered up.
Otherwise, if half of the wound heals automatically, it will be completely broken!
After a while, the two soldiers returned one after another.
Yan Jing put on a soldier's uniform and, with the support of the two men, headed to the Source Tower where Rosser was at night.
At this time, Perrot was obviously still busy in the cabin and was completely unaware of what was happening on the deck.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of Yuanta, Yan Jing saw a one-eyed strong man guarding the door. Earlier when he followed Perot and wandered inside the Xunguang, Yan Jing had learned about the situation of the ship.
He immediately realized that this should be Burns, the deputy captain of the Following the Light.
"Joshua, what happened?"
Burns, who rushed here immediately after receiving Rosser's news, took the limp Yan Jing from the soldier and asked the soldier to return to his post first. Since the uniform covered most of the wounds, he could only ask with an ugly face at this moment.
"We...we're being targeted!"
The tone was still vague, and Burns felt particularly angry.
Chapter completed!
