"How long?" Aichenthus asked hurriedly.
Right now they were racing against time. There was a way to truly cure the illness, but the person on the bed could not afford to drag it out. They had already used up too much time, and the patient on the bed was almost at his limit.
"Give me ten more hours, no, five more hours. The starter medicine can be made after five hours!" Inreinen said at the side.
As a doctor, Inreinen had always thought that his medical skills were pretty good, but this incident had dealt a huge blow to him. If he could not win against Azrael's scythe, then he was a failure. Inrey, the patient on the bed and Aikenthus had grown up together since they were young. In an environment like Sector V, it was truly rare for them to have a friendship like this. Friendship that was like scrap metal in the eyes of many people in Sector V was like a precious treasure to him. He did not care how many people died in Sector V. Even if everyone in Sector V died, as long as the three of them were fine.
He had come to Sector H to find the people he wanted to find, and Inreinen had also found a way to cure the illness. But no matter how he calculated, no matter how fast he sped up, he could not keep up with the speed at which the illness was worsening. Due to the rapid deterioration of the person on the bed, Aichenthus did not hesitate to expose himself here, hijack the starship, and capture the starship's doctor. But none of them could prolong the illness. Inreinen was about to give up at first, but Silin's words undoubtedly rekindled his confidence.
"I don't know how long I can prolong the illness. We'll only know after we try." Silin answered. As he spoke, Silin walked towards the bed.
When Silin had just moved his feet, he had already felt Aichenthus' strong hostility and murderous intent. This was not to say that Aichenthus had a strong hostility towards Silin, but Aichenthus's conditioned reflex. However, Silin stopped after taking two steps forward. If he walked too close, the other two would not be at ease, and Silin himself would not be at ease either. Blood Eye Aichenthus was not a good-tempered person, and if he got too close, Silin could not guarantee what would happen. He could not be sure if the other would kill him. After all, they were not familiar with each other, and no one knew each other's background. Silin's information was limited.
After Silin stopped, he took out a green pearl and handed it over.
"Try this."
It was true that the patient on the bed was poisoned, but the poison was very strange. It was alive. They were like a fire that quickly evaporated the water in the patient's body. However, they did not allow the patient to consume liquid food that contained a lot of water. They did not allow the patient to drink water either. If they did, they would make more noise, and the water would evaporate faster. The poison had seeped into every part of the patient's body, so injections were not allowed. They were like a group of monsters that hated water. They could not be seen, but they existed everywhere in the patient's body.
Since the medicine didn't work, neither did the potions that contained a lot of water. Silin thinks about it and finally chose the green pearls. The affinity of nature and the gift of life force would allow the patient lying on the bed to hold on for a longer period of time.
"How long she can last will depend on herself." Silin wasn't sure. He didn't know the patient well. For different people, their desire to survive in desperate situations was also different. No one could determine the limit of a person's body's function.
Aikenthus took the green pearl from Silin's hand. They had never seen such a pearl before, but the feeling after holding it in his hand ignited Aikenthus's confidence. The life force transmitted from such a little green pearl made Aikenthus have the urge to cry.
"How do I use it?" Aikenthus asked Silin. Before this, he was still skeptical, but if the other party could take out such a precious item, he was definitely not from the military.
"Put it in her mouth. She won't be able to swallow it, but this green pearl can play a better role," Silin said.
Aikenthus did as he was told.
After he put the pearl into the patient's mouth, the patient's originally weak and almost non-existent breathing quickly grew a little stronger, and it continued to improve. Although the rate of improvement wasn't fast, it was the first good thing that had happened in so many days.
The green pearl Silin gave out wasn't one of the five largest pearls he had, but one of the smaller ones. Speaking of which, some of these green pearls were Huimao's property. Right now, the bastard was probably grinding his claws in a corner to vent his anger. After this, Silin would have to buy cat food to appease him.
Although the patient on the bed had walked a circle around the line of death, her desire to live was still very strong. Inrelson passed a bottle of supplementary medicine to Aikenthus. It was a spray medicine that would provide some relief when sprayed on the surface of the patient's body. Using it alone wouldn't have any effect, but when combined with this green pearl, it would at least improve the situation a little.
When Aikenthus was spraying the medicine on the patient on the bed, he suddenly stopped and looked at Silin and Czedow. The look in his eyes was very clear: Stay away!
Silin didn't say anything. He turned around and walked next door. They would continue their conversation later. Czedow followed Silin back to the room next door. He even closed the wall board he had cut off on the way back. It was as if he was closing a door.
After Cillin returned to the room next door, Wheeze jumped out of nowhere and scratched Cillin's trousers with its claws in dissatisfaction, producing a few strands of "noodles".
"You should've just killed those bastards. You deal with one, Czedow deal with the other, and leave the small fries outside to me. The three of us can definitely take them out! But how can you give that treasure away? Even if you still have a dozen or so pearls in your hands, every one of them can be sold for a high price. I asked Lung, and he said that the value of the pearl will increase! "Huimao continued to scratch.
The surroundings had been set to silent, so Silin wasn't afraid that the people in the room next door would hear them.
Silin twisted the back of Huimao's neck hair and brought it in front of him. "I didn't say that I would give it to them for free."
Huimao, who was baring his fangs and brandishing his claws a moment ago, suddenly felt his fur become tame again.
"Czedow, did you see the tattoo on the back of the patient on the bed just now?" Silin asked.
"I only saw a little."
Czedow projected the scene just now. When Aikenthus was spraying the medicine on the patient, a little pattern on the patient's shoulder was revealed.
"Is that a … feather?" Huimao said.
Only a little bit of the tattoo was revealed. It looked like the tip of a feather. After that, Aikenthus chased Silin and Czedow out of the room.
"Is there something wrong with that tattoo?" Huimao curled his tail and suddenly smiled strangely. "Don't tell me you guys want to see that woman naked …"
Silin gave him a slap and said, "Is your brain filled with fish poop?"
"Then why are you paying attention to this?" Huimao flicked his ears.
Silin took out a document. It was a document Lung had sent him, and there was a picture in it. There were three people in the picture, and they were the three current leaders of a great force in Sector V called the 'Freedom Army'. The one in the center was Blood Eye Aiken, the one on Aiken's right was Inrenault, and the one on his left was a masked man wearing a cloak. He was one of the three leaders of the Freedom Army, 'Blue'. Blue was very mysterious, and not even the Andriera Family had any concrete information about him.
"The Freedom Army's emblem is a blue bird. I heard that 'Blue' was the one who drew it himself, and it was later confirmed as the Freedom Army's new emblem." Silin read out a paragraph from the information and said, "That patient can't be a small fry if he's able to gain Aikenthus and Inrenault's attention. It's also possible that two of the three leaders have come out and left one behind to guard the base. However, if the patient has a feather tattoo of a 'kiss' on his back … "
This made Silin even more suspicious that 'Blue' was the patient lying on the bed.
They were truly relieved that all three leaders had come out. However, the people of Sector V probably didn't hold much weight in their hearts.
Ten minutes later, two thumps came from the wall. Czedow deactivated the Mute Shield and moved the board away again.
"Let's talk terms," Aikenthus said.
Right now, Aikenthus's anxiety had calmed down a lot. It would seem that the patient was in good condition.
Wheeze hid itself again the moment Czedow removed the wall planks. It was ready to counterattack the moment Czedow made a move. In fact, Wheeze was hoping that Czedow would cause some trouble so that it would have a justifiable reason to take back the item and rob it again.
However, to Huimao's disappointment, the other party didn't have that intention.
Aikenthus didn't want Silin to leak the information on their side, and Silin also asked the other party to keep the matter between him and Czedow a secret.
Silin tossed another pill to Aikenthus, "This is a nutrient pill. It's much better than the ones you have. It doesn't stimulate the patient too much, and it lasts longer."
Aikenthus didn't say anything and accepted it.
Hiding in a corner, Huimao continued to scratch his claws. That was a nutrient pill gifted by the Food God! That wastrel Silin had given away something valuable again!
"Name your price," Aikenthus said.
"I don't need the money. Sector V doesn't have many minerals I need anyway. "
"I don't like owing favors."
"It can't be helped. I haven't decided yet, so you can owe me for now."
Aikenthus's bloody eyes stared at Silin and Czedow for a moment. Then, he nodded and said, "Alright, I'll owe you for now."
Right now, the Freedom Army wasn't rich, they didn't have many minerals, and they weren't even equipped with advanced weapons. All they had was a bunch of people who weren't afraid of death.
After they came to an agreement, Silin asked Aikenthus, "Where did the news of Oskulos's death come from?"
Back then, Star Rank Hunter Oskulos's death had come from the mouth of a violent organization leader at Sector V. However, no one knew who had told him. After that, Sector V fell into chaos, and a new group of rising forces developed extremely quickly. It wasn't long before the people of Sector V began to brazenly unleash their firepower and announced the establishment of the Freedom Alliance. Aikenthus's Freedom Army was an important member of the Freedom Alliance.
Silin hoped to learn some information from Aikenthus, but Aikenthus himself didn't know.
"All I know is that a couple of famous leaders leaked news of Oskulos's death at the time, and the forces that relied on Oskulos began to fight amongst themselves. It was at that time that a lot of new forces began to develop, including us." Aikenthus expressed that he couldn't answer Silin's question. "Also, those big shots are all dead. Some died by accident, some were killed by their subordinates or other forces. In short, the big shots who leaked the news are as dead as can be."
The first thing Silin thought of was "silencing".
How could the big shots who had lived in Sector V for so many years be slaughtered so easily, and not just one of them at that?
Although Aikenthus knew that something was amiss, the big shots were just unlucky. They seized this opportunity to rise to power, and if they didn't rise, they would've been suppressed, and they would've become cannon fodder.
"This starship will land on an inconspicuous planet," Gao Peng said. Aikenthus said. This was to tell Silin that he could leave at that time, "However, if you run into some Sector H escorts along the way, then it's hard to say."
"That won't happen," Silin answered confidently, "You won't run into them. Don't worry and go. However, the premise is the safety of the passengers on the starship."
Aikenthus was very curious about Silin's identity. The fact that he could say this with such certainty meant that he was connected to at least one of the big families in Sector H. Even so, his relationship wasn't shallow. Even so, he still had to hide his identity. Who on earth was he?
Aikenthus fulfilled his promise and ordered his subordinates to stop attacking the passengers. Of course, the disobedient passengers couldn't blame them. The passenger starship landed on an inconspicuous little planet. Normally, passenger starships wouldn't enter a planet. The arrival of this starship caused a lot of people on the planet to panic. After the starship stopped, the passengers inside the starship also swarmed out to escape. Aikenthus and his men took advantage of the chaos to disappear. Silin did the same.
There was already a spaceplane parked on the other side of the planet. It wasn't big, and it didn't look too eye-catching. After Silin walked closer, the spaceplane's hatch opened and revealed a metal head.
"Long time no see. You're finally back!" The blue bars on Moon's face narrowed.
Lying on Czedow's shoulder, Huimao looked listless. After responding to Moon listlessly, he buried his head and sighed again.
Moon looked at Silin. This fat cat usually lay on Silin's shoulder. Why was he lying on Czedow's shoulder and pointing his butt at Silin? Throwing a tantrum again?
Sigh, why did he say 'again'?
However, since Moon knew Huimao better than Huimao, he wasn't worried that Huimao would keep throwing a tantrum.
"Wheeze, I brought you something!" Moon took out a bag of fish biscuits, "It's a new variety. The taste has improved."
The listless Huimao's ears perked up and his spirits rose!
"You've released a new flavor so soon? Shouldn't we wait for a while longer to hit the market? "The gray cat nimbly bit open the packaging and started eating.
"This isn't on the market yet," Moon replied.
Silin looked puzzled, "Did Food King look for you?"
"Mn. When we went to a trading center close to Sector S, Food King came looking for us. He recognized your double immediately, but he didn't expose you. He even put on an act. "
"Did he say anything?"
"He told you to contact him after you returned. He said it wasn't urgent, and it wasn't about the people at Sector S. "
Moon boarded the spaceplane and left the planet. As for the passengers on the planet, someone would come and take care of them very soon.
While Moon was piloting the spaceplane and listening to Huimao talk about "Sea Paradise", Silin was thinking about what Food King Hara wanted. If it was about Genya, he shouldn't have come looking for him right now. The passage wasn't guaranteed yet, and Silin had no intention of returning to the Mist Bodhisattva Empire right now.
The Eleventh Squad had completed their mission and was staying at the base. When Silin returned, they were training. They were planning to continue their mission, but Silin told them to return to the base first.
Mo Heng was very happy that Cillin was able to return safely. Of course, he was happy because Cillin had returned safely. Secondly, he was happy because Cillin had brought back a batch of rare ores. These ores could be used to refine several kinds of alloys suitable for space fighters, and they were all high quality materials.
He ordered the robots to drag the ores away while he went into the workshop to study the ores.
Silin returned to his room and contacted Food King.
"Long time no see, kid!"
Food King was still the same old Food King. The fat on his face was almost piled up.
"Did you get fatter again?" Silin teased.
Food King touched the fat on his face and sighed. "Just something bothersome."
Food King liked to eat whenever he was in a bad mood, but he also liked to express it when he was happy.
"What bothersome? Your companies are doing pretty well right now. The League of Stars might be a mess, but your business hasn't. "
"It's not business, Silin. This is why I called you. You know the Robert Family, right? "
"The Robert Family? The family that owns the robot kingdom? "
"That's them. I received some news not long ago that they're probably going to attack some of the Hunters. I don't think the Four Great Hunters will encounter such a situation, since the Robert Family has no reason to offend them. Still, it's always good to be on guard. "
"Mn, I understand. Thank you for the reminder."
"It's nothing. I'm just feeling a bit annoyed. That's one of the reasons I'm reminding you to be prepared because it concerns you Hunters."
"What else?"
"There's no need to tell you the details. It's my own problem. Sigh, work hard. Oh right, Silin, I'm planning to expand the trade zone. What do you think about building a trade zone in Sector V?"
If it was anyone else, there was no way they would want to build a trade zone in Sector V, especially one related to food. That being said, Sector V was a big pancake, a pancake coated with chili peppers. It all depended on one's appetite.
"You want to go?"
"I have an idea. I've done some research, but I haven't decided on a partner yet. Do you have any suggestions? I want to know what you Hunters think about the other side. "
Silin thinks for a moment. "Let me recommend someone to you."
"Who?"
"Blood Eye Aiken of the Free Army."
…
After the call with Food King, Silin went to find Xi Kai who was busy at the workshop.
"Robot Kingdom?" Xi Kai frowned. "How dare he use this title?"
