"He killed my brother. At that time, my brother, Evan, worshipped Morgery very much. He saw him as his idol and even joined his gang. Then, Morgery disappeared. He disappeared for three whole years without a word of explanation."
Chen Zhao was speechless. The person he loved the most had killed the person closest to him. If it were him, he would probably react the same way.
"Let me take you to Morgery." "The park is so big. You might not be able to find it. I'll take you there."
Chen Zhao's thought was that Morgery wanted to repay his debt and go to Gaia.
Therefore, even without him leading the way, Morgery would definitely appear in front of Gaia.
If Gaia really wanted to kill Morgery, he had to stop her no matter what.
He couldn't just watch Gaia kill Morgery, right?
Gaia didn't refuse. Chen Zhao drove to the West Side Forest.
Entering the forest from the same place as last time, the ground was slippery and muddy because of the two heavy rains.
However, Chen Zhao saw a gun on Gaia's waist.
Oh no, Gaia really wanted to kill!
Chen Zhao gulped. As promised, Morgery appeared before Gaia. He was standing on a small hill in front of them.
"Gaia …" Chen Zhao's eyes were filled with worry.
However, Gaia had no intention of wasting time with Morgery. He drew his gun!
Bang bang bang —
All three bullets hit Morgery, and he fell to the ground.
Gaia turned and left. Chen Zhao hurriedly charged at Morgery. One bullet hit Morgery's carotid artery, one in his chest, and one in his abdomen.
Morgery's pupils had dilated and he was foaming with blood.
Chen Zhao hurriedly operated on Morgery. First, he fed Morgery a perfect crystal potion.
Then, he took out a silver needle and stopped Morgery's bleeding.
"Don't close your eyes. Open your eyes. Open your eyes." Chen Zhao kept patting Morgery's face.
But Morgery's consciousness was already hazy. Chen Zhao did everything he could to save him.
Chen Zhao didn't expect Gaia to act so decisively and regretfully.
Chen Zhao had thought that Gaia would play a game of cat and mouse like last time and then torture Morgery.
But no, Gaia was completely focused on killing Morgery.
There were no superfluous words, only murderous intent.
The most troublesome thing right now was Morgery's carotid artery. It had been cut by the bullet and a large amount of blood was gushing out.
Morgery was only one step away from death. This was the first time Chen Zhao had been so flustered.
The carotid artery must be repaired. What medicine should he use?
Normal medicine definitely wouldn't work. Chen Zhao racked his brain.
One by one, the names of the potions flashed through his mind, but he rejected them all.
Finally, he thought of an ointment.
Slime Ointment. The main ingredient of this ointment is the saliva of slime demons.
The main function of the mucus ointment was to repair damaged areas.
As long as the sticky ointment was smeared on the wound, the ointment's effect would be able to bind the wound in a very short period of time and play a certain role.
To put it simply, if someone chopped off their arm and stuck it back with a sticky ointment, the severed arm would be able to move.
The mucus ointment could temporarily act as a nerve transmission function, allowing the injured to temporarily recover a small amount of function.
Of course, this was incomplete.
Chen Zhao's hands were covered in blood. He had to manually apply the sticky ointment to Morgery's carotid artery.
The scene was extremely bloody, but Chen Zhao didn't have time to think about hygiene right now.
He had to save Morgery's life first. Everything else came later.
Whoosh —
Morgery suddenly exhaled loudly. A hoarse voice came out of his mouth.
"I … I'm not dead?"
Chen Zhao slapped Morgery's face. "Next time, if you want to die, call Gaia yourself."
Chen Zhao wrapped some gauze around Morgery's neck. He was very weak.
Chen Zhao still had to remove the bullets from his chest and abdomen.
Morgery looked at Chen Zhao weakly. "Gaia knows that you can save me … She didn't want to kill me."
"Bullsh * t," Chen Zhao retorted. "No one can save you from your injuries just now," he said. "She really wanted to kill you."
"With her marksmanship, if she really wanted to kill me, she only needed to shoot me in the head."
"Okay, okay. You're right."
To be honest, Chen Zhao didn't know if Gaia really wanted to kill Morgery or if she just wanted to break the knot in her heart.
But no matter what, Morgery's life was saved.
"Sleep for now." Chen Zhao gave Morgery some anesthesia.
Morgery silently closed his eyes. With Chen Zhao beside him, he could sleep peacefully.
Then, Chen Zhao took out all the resources he'd prepared for Morgery.
Large amounts of food, mattresses, bed sheets, blankets, and a change of clothes.
A few hours later, Morgery was stimulated by a fragrance and opened his eyes.
He saw Chen Zhao barbecuing meat outside the cave. When he turned his head, he saw a large amount of things in the cave.
"Chen, how many things did you move for me?"
"My car is big. I can carry a lot." Chen Zhao walked in with a piece of barbecued meat and handed it to Morgery.
"Are you sure I can eat this now?"
"Go ahead," Chen Zhao said. "No matter how bad it gets, it can't be worse than before."
Morgery's neck was injured now. Any slight movement would affect the wound, so he could only chew slowly.
Still, it was his first time eating meat in a few days. He was very satisfied.
"I might not have time to come over these days," Chen Zhao said.
"You've done enough for me," Morgery said.
"Live well. Don't court death like this again."
"I won't."
"If you need anything else, contact me."
"Okay, thank you, Chen."
Chen Zhao dragged his tired body back to the car.
But Gaia was still sitting in the car. Chen Zhao was stunned. "You didn't leave?"
"You didn't leave the car keys," Gaia said matter-of-factly.
Chen Zhao glanced at the car door. It had clearly been pried open.
With Gaia's abilities, she could pry open the car door. Did she not know how to start the car without keys?
She'd stayed to wait for Morgery's news.
Chen Zhao now believed Morgery's words. Gaia had never planned to kill him.
In the end, she still had feelings for Morgery.
Chen Zhao smiled. Gaia glared at him. "What are you smiling at?"
Chen Zhao wiped his mouth and did not say anything else. He focused on driving.
"It doesn't matter if he's dead or not. My grudge with him ends here."
Chen Zhao pretended not to hear. If Gaia really wanted to end things, she wouldn't be merciful.
But this was probably the best outcome.
"Stop smiling. If you keep smiling, I'll shoot you." Gaia seemed to be angered by Chen Zhao. She pulled out her gun and pointed it at Chen Zhao's temple.
"Okay, okay, I won't smile anymore. Put the gun away. I hate having a gun pointed at my head."
