The superficial peroneal nerve was one of the branches of the common peroneal nerve. It was distributed throughout the ankle and the foot.
Gu Jun closed his eyes slightly. It was as if he could see the picture of the puzzle in the book before his eyes. The neatly drawn pale yellow nerve lines guided him to feel the condition of the nerves in his right leg more clearly, and the pain in his heart and bones deepened.
The blade sliced again. Amid the explosion of pain, Gu Jun was certain that one of the branches of the superficial peroneal nerve had been severed.
His toes and the instep of his feet were numb and he was slowly losing consciousness.
But the time left for him to claim the mission reward dropped from 3: 26: 15 to 2: 12: 57. This cut shortened the time by more than an hour.
Two more cuts … two more cuts and he would be able to claim the unknown reward …
Blood gushed out from the wound. Gu Jun did not have much energy left. Even Lenton's right hand found it difficult to hold the scalpel …
However, the chaos around them continued to escalate. Bell Grant was lying in a pool of blood on the muddy ground, still struggling to break free from the siege of the others. Those who had also fallen to the ground were already maddened by the pain. Their fear and confusion had turned into madness, and they wanted to tear this man into pieces.
"Motherf * cker, son of a b * tch …" Lou Xiaoning couldn't shoot anymore. Even if there was a sharpshooter here, he wouldn't be able to take down the others without injuring his own teammates. The only way was to walk up and shoot those people's heads one by one …
Yu Chi was also surrounded. If not for Feng Peiqian's determination to shoot them down even if it meant dealing a fatal blow, Yu Chi would have been torn apart already.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry!" Feng Peiqian screamed as she fired. Bang! Bang!
Bang! Bang! … She was truly sorry. She had someone she wanted to protect. Regardless of the choice, she could not allow that to happen.
Deng Ximei, Uncle Dan, Peacock and Malachite surrounded Gu Jun from all four directions. They fired as well. They managed to fend off the onslaught of the civilians.
But at that moment, all 8 members of the fog-breakers were under a mental assault that was no easier than physical assault. The mental support network was shaking.
They wanted to save these people, but they had to kill these people.
They could see that the faces and eyes of some of the people were different from before.
The power of darkness was forcing and pushing everyone here to split. Fear and suspicion, hatred and violence, anger and killing, they were truly divided into two species.
[Isn't it easy for diseases to separate people? We, you, we, you …]
[A plague is enough to expose the true colors of those who claim to feed on love.]
[They fear us, they despise us, they hate us, they want us to disappear. Them, us.]
In Yu Chi's mind, the Spirit Barrier that he had built based on Bronx Lenton became more active. The words that he had seen while building the Spirit Barrier were surging up again and again. His ribs started to hurt, as though a sharp weapon that didn't belong to him was stabbing into them. It hurts, it hurts …
"Bux … has become more active …" Yu Chi reminded the group, "Something is definitely wrong, something is not right …"
Yu Chi had his own sensitivity, he had a feeling this was the key. This could aggravate the problem but it could also solve it.
"Captain Yu, hold on for a little longer." Deng Ximei answered. Her mind was in a mess but she knew Ah Jun had made a breakthrough. She had been paying attention to Ah Jun's self-mutilation. Even though she had no idea what his goal was, the change in the swamp told her something.
The swamp was still shrouded in fog, the crows lingered in the sky and the blood pillars continued to shoot out.
That feeling of disorientation, which had stopped for a moment, reappeared with Gu Jun's self-mutilation and continued to grow stronger.
She could 'see' more clearly. Many things in the swamp appeared to be illusions, they could be flipped around and another place was rising.
At that moment, Deng Ximei saw from the corner of her eyes that Gu Jun's right hand that was holding the knife swung down again. She had no doubt that the knife could sever both of his legs. It was not easy to control one's strength under such torturous pain …
Deng Ximei, Uncle Dan and the rest were afraid. In the blink of an eye, Gu Jun had lost both of his legs.
Then, with the current environment and medical conditions, even if the people around him stopped losing control, it would be difficult for him not to die from excessive blood loss.
"Ah …" Gu Jun roared at the top of his lungs. He pushed the tip of the blade that had penetrated deep into the anterolateral region of the calf and was about to stab into the tibia.
In front of his eyes, some fragments of the illusion overlapped and flashed past.
He saw himself dissecting the leg of the black goat cub on the dissection table, waving the same scalpel and cutting through the incomparably hard bones.
【1:03:41】
There was still one hour left … but based on the current situation, did it look like he could hold on for another hour?
If the distal tibia was slightly fractured, he could still walk and there was a chance for a full recovery …
But the fracture of the tibia was very painful.
In that instant, Gu Jun made up his mind. The heat from the City of Dusk gave him some strength. His right hand pushed the tip of the scalpel. Crack …
The tip of the scalpel pierced through the tibia.
A small crack appeared on the outside of the tibia. The tip of the scalpel continued to pierce through. It pierced through the muscle and into the spinal cavity.
It was just like … it had pierced into the foot cavity of the goat cub.
Gu Jun's body was twitching. He had no idea what kind of power was holding him up, but his physical system was already on the verge of collapse. His consciousness blurred. In that moment, he felt like he had mixed up this moment with the moment he dissected the leg of the black goat cub, the bone marrow in the spinal cavity and the abnormal tubes in the foot cavity …
He was about to move the scalpel again to cut off all the abnormal tubes.
His forearm was already moving, and the blade was widening the crack on the bone.
With just a little more force, this tibia would break along with the skin and flesh.
But at that moment, Gu Jun seemed to hear a crisp notification from the new system. A message box popped up in his muddled mind.
"Your mission reward is ready to be claimed!"
Finally … it's done …
Gu Jun could no longer hear what was going on around him. Whether this was an illusion or not was still unknown. Regardless, he did not hesitate for even half a second. He immediately used his remaining consciousness to click on "Claim Reward: Unknown". The power of the City of Dusk suddenly shone, nourishing his body and mind. It also condensed a new reward.
"You have received 1 Carlop dissecting saw."
