Chapter 31 Residual Crystal (2)

The wind and snow have finally subsided a lot, but the night is not over yet.

The surroundings were very quiet. Lying in Xuejiu's treatment cabin, Jiang Jianming, whose physical strength was gradually recovering, suddenly had a bewildering illusion.

He kept replaying in his mind how Garcia finally pushed himself into the treatment cabin and smoothly closed the hatch.

——I felt as if I was a fugitive domestic pet, and now I was caught by the owner, so I took it back to the den and locked it up.

"..."

Jiang Jianming was expressionless.

Although he used to have a close relationship with Prince Ryan as a civilian, he was far from being reduced to a "canary in a cage".

He was so unhappy with his inexplicable brain tricks and metaphors that he couldn't lie down in the treatment cabin.

Therefore, a series of treatment procedures such as infusion and oxygen inhalation were stopped from the inside, and the hatch was opened.

The first thing Jiang Jianming did was to manipulate Xue Jiu and irradiated the spider corpse with a circle of curing rays.

——To kill this B-rank subspecies, it would be a big loss if the collection of real crystal ore from the corpse was not completed before the crystal particles escaped.

He laboriously threw the condensed real crystal ore into the snow dove storage warehouse, and turned on the mecha video to take a circle around the wreckage of the alien creature.

After doing this, Jiang Jianming finally staggered and sat down against the spider corpse.

Little His Highness doesn't like to leave an unfavorable and uncertain tail when doing things.

He felt that after Garcia completed the rescue of the other teams, he would still come back to him.

Jiang Jianming closed his eyes and raised the corners of his lips. When that person saw him coming out of the treatment cabin, he didn't know what interesting expression he would show...

Confused, he always felt that he had forgotten something.

But Jiang Jianming has confidence in his memory. Since it is something he can't remember, it shouldn't be a big deal.

...Forget it, if you can't figure it out or can't think of it, just don't think about it. This is one of his long-held habits.

Jiang Jianming turned sideways and decided to sleep first.

...

At the same time, the other end of the canyon exits.

The rest of the third team, who had been completely forgotten by Jiang Jianming, had already set up camp tents and placed the wounded.

Tang Zhen sent the coordinates and details to the fortress again. This time, he could finally wait for rescue with peace of mind.

However……

Outside the tent, Li Youfang, Qiao and Ellie looked at each other in the dark.

The expression was frightened and frightened, as if the three of them were the one who was left behind.

"No, I have to go back and have a look."

Li Youfang's face changed a few times, he turned his head and walked towards his own electric shock, gritted his teeth. "I-I can't be a coward who can't help my teammates, and I won't do it!"

Qiao stopped him and whispered eagerly: "Li, don't be stupid, doesn't Jiang Jianming have a very powerful mecha? He won't die even if we all die! Maybe he has already flown back to the fortress now, you In the past, that big guy took you..."

He was fine if he didn't speak. When he said that Li Youfang was furious on the spot, he shouted at Qiao, "Shut up! Don't you know what you did!?"

"Jiang Jianming's mecha was blasted down the mountain directly by you, who knows how he is now!"

Li Youfang scratched his hair anxiously, "What if... what if he was seriously injured, what if he passed out!? He's just a disabled human..."

Joe cried and said, "Then he's already dead now! It's too late for you to go!"

Li Youfang didn't care, he turned his head and walked away, crouching in front of his IP, and began to change the backup energy for the mecha.

"Forget it...forget it, Lee."

Ellie also stammered to discourage: "Joe is right... You will only be eaten by the subspecies if you turn back now. We should hurry up and join the rescue of the fortress, and ask the officers to save people."

"I……"

Li Youfang rolled his Adam's apple, closed the mecha energy slot, raised his head, and was suddenly hit by the oncoming wind.

His nose was sour, his eyes suddenly turned red, and he muttered to himself, "I have to go... I haven't had time to pay back his money."

Qiao panicked even more: "But, you, how am I going to explain to Tang Zhen when you're gone!? He is so good with Jiang Jianming, if he knew—"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly saw Ellie's expression changed, and she was still winking at him frantically.

"..."

No way.

Joe froze behind his back and turned his head stiffly...

At the entrance of the tent, Tang Zhen stood upright, the blood on his face fading clearly.

He said blankly: "You...what did you say?"

...

Between the dark mountains, two IPs galloped at full speed, passing through the canyon when they came.

"Tang Town...Tang Town!!"

Li Youfang was anxious and angry, and shouted at the back, "Calm down, Tang Zhen!!"

The IP cockpit lights up, and the mech runs wild.

On the screen, the scenery in all directions moved quickly backwards.

"Li Youfang...! You fucking listen to me..."

Tang Zhen's heavy breathing and almost violent voice came from the communication channel, "If... if there is something wrong with Xiao Jiang, I won't let you go...!"

Just when was rushing back like crazy with the IP.

In the unfinished night, Tang Zhen remembered the past.

In fact, when he was at the Kaios Military Academy, many people had always wondered how he, a noble son of the imperial capital, would run behind a disabled human roommate every day.

I also worry about worrying about that, when people buy tranquilizers like an old mother.

Only Tang Zhen knew that it was Jiang Jianming who pulled him out of the mud.

It seems inaccurate to say this, it is better to say that he was able to get out of the mud step by step by following Jiang Jianming.

He was sixteen years old that year, full of childish blood, every day dreams of rushing to the battlefield to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds. For this reason, he quarreled with his father, quarreled with his mother, and even hit his grandfather, Mr. Tang.

The conflict with his family reached its peak when he applied for the Kaios Military Academy, but was transferred to the Sixth Logistics Institute.

Tang Zhen had to admit every time he thought about it afterwards, it was the most unbearable period of his life.

He yelled at the college, deleted his parents' communications, learned to swear by street gangsters, skipped school to drink and fight...

It seems to be deliberately going against the words "genius", "noble son", "family hope" and turning into a degenerate garbage to get revenge for something.

Until one day, probably the academy couldn't watch it anymore.

Instructor Luo Hai called him to the tactical confrontation simulation classroom of the military school.

Tang Zhen deliberately arrived ten minutes late, rubbed his face when he entered the door, and acted like a savage and vicious bastard.

But he found that there was another person waiting for him there.

It was a boy of fifteen or sixteen years of age about his age.

The young man has black hair and black eyes, wearing a very simple white shirt, holding a cup of milk coffee in both hands, and his eyebrows are very delicate.

He looked up at the teacher who was more than a head taller than himself, and said earnestly, "Teacher Luo, I said, you can't summon students anytime and anywhere like this... I still want to read."

Instructor Luo Hai was angry and funny, and pointed to Tang Zhen who had just pushed the door in: "Win a game against him, I'll give you a one-day teaching authority in the reference room of the Kaios Military Academy, that's it."

Turning his head, Luo Hai pointed at the boy and said to Tang Zhen, "Win a round with him and let you transfer to the first hospital."

The black-haired boy glanced at him lightly, slowly put the milk coffee aside, and stood on the side of the combat simulator.

Tang Zhen's "arrogance and ferocity" couldn't hold it any longer. He was stunned to see the young man's wrist. It was a cruel human being.

His first reaction was to frown - grab a crippled human and fight him in a mock battle, what kind of bullshit teacher, how can he bully people like this! ?

But the words ran into his throat, and Tang Shao remembered that he was now playing a "degenerate garbage", not a righteous boy.

He just swallowed the injustice and rolled his eyes with contempt.

The boy opposite stood still, but instead patted the simulator and said to him, "Good classmate, please hurry up."

Tang Zhen gritted his teeth and got on the plane.

Bitter meat, bitter meat, Lao Tzu is not fooled!

The game didn't last ten minutes.

Tang Zhen stared blankly at the word "defeat" flashing in front of him, and fell into confusion.

He...he lost?

Yes, but how did he lose? ?

His opponent was slow, gentle, and weak. Who would have thought that he would use his troops with great speed as soon as he got on the plane. He was completely wiped out without reacting at all.

Tang Zhen was not reconciled, and slapped the machine with a slap: "I underestimated the enemy, let's do another round!"

The boy opposite turned to look at Teacher Luo Hai, his voice was clear: "Can the rewards be superimposed?"

Luo Hai twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Yes."

eight minutes later.

"Come again!"

Thirteen minutes later.

"Again... come again!!"

ten minutes.

"I... grass!? I don't believe it anymore, come again!!"

They played a full twelve rounds that day, and Tang Shao played a brand-new way of defeat in each round, which was a terrible capital.

In the end, the young man waved his hand first, and calmly got off the phone: "I'm tired, let's do this for now... I'll get sick if I continue to fight."

The sun was setting outside the window, and two crows stood on the branches, mercilessly making a "hoarse" laugh.

Young Master Tang sat on the ground sluggishly.

He felt himself transformed into a grey-white stone statue.

Teacher Luo Hai was not surprised, squinting and asking the two young men, "How do you feel?"

Tang Zhen was numb, unable to speak.

The boy on the opposite side smiled lightly and cast an admiring look: "He has a good mentality, and I admire him very much."

"..."

Tang Zhen's face was ashen.

At this moment, he felt that he was being mocked by the malice of the whole world.

The black-haired boy made an appointment with the teacher to open the permission tomorrow, turned around and picked up his milk coffee, pursed his lips and said, "...It's cold."

Luo Hai reluctantly said, "I'll give you the number of points in the cafe at the entrance of the library."

The boy shook his head: "

It's okay, I'll go back and cook it myself. "

Said he was leaving.

"Hey!"

Tang Zhen couldn't help shouting from behind, "You... What's your name, from which hospital?"

The boy was pushing the door with one hand, and when he heard the sound, he looked back at him and seemed to smile again.

"The sixth courtyard, Jiang Jianming."

"It's also your roommate... well, if you're still going to this school."

Tang Zhen felt that he could remember the afterglow of the sunset that evening.

Will there be such a person in this world who is never shaken by the harsh external conditions?

Perhaps... there is no necessary causal relationship between what family background you were born in, which college you entered, and your outstanding abilities.

These ideas were all slowly pondered by Tang Zhen later.

And when the young master Tang was not old enough to drink chicken soup, his idea was very simple——

Damn, what kind of genius has been blown around for more than ten years, it turns out to be a liar and flattery!

I can't even beat a disabled human in the Sixth Academy, what face is there to change to the First Academy! ?

He stayed in the sixth logistics hospital for five years.

I have been with Jiang Jianming as roommates for a long time, and have been influenced to be somewhat more stable.

He stopped arguing with the family, restrained his arrogance, and looked down on praise and honor. Days passed, and before he knew it, he became the chief student of the sixth academy... Although he still couldn't beat Jiang Jianming in a mock battle.

He thought...

mature.

He thought...

You are already strong enough.

On the thunderstorm night before leaving for Yin Beidou, he held the muzzle that Jiang Jianming handed to his forehead, and uttered wild words.

It was not until he really came to the far interstellar space that the cruelty of the battlefield gave him a blow.

He couldn't keep Bei Man'er, and he couldn't keep Jiang Jianming. He rushed forward impulsively, broke down emotionally, lost his calm... Only then did he realize that he was still so incompetent.

"Ho...ho..."

Sweat dripped from the tip of his nose, and all that was left in his eardrums was his gruff wheezing.

The IP has been driven to the limit speed, Tang Zhen squinted hard to look ahead, the end of the canyon has been blown up by him.

opposite……

Is that subspecies still around? What about little ginger?

The communication has been unable to connect, and estimating from the time, it is likely to be the worst result.

Think rationally, he really shouldn't act rashly, he can't... can't let Xiao Jiang's sacrifice... be in vain.

but……

Tang Zhen gritted his teeth, switched the mecha to flying mode, and swept the obstacles against the wind.

Forget it, just treat him as an incompetent piece of shit.

The mecha flies into the air, and the vision is suddenly clear!

I saw the snow melting between the canyons, revealing the scorched earth after the explosion. The wreckage was piled up, barely able to tell that it belonged to that subspecies. A very faint smell of burnt and blood has not been blown away by the wind.

Tang Zhen held his breath blankly.

This is……

Are there already fortress elites that have wiped out the subspecies?

"—Tang Zhen!!"

With a whistling behind him, Li Youfang's mecha also arrived, and said in shock, "What's going on here, has something been blown up here, it doesn't look like a crystal bone."

Tang Zhen turned on the searchlight and stared at the bottom. Nothing else was important, at this time he just wanted to know if Jiang Jianming was safe.

He first saw the scrapped IP by the cliff. The mecha was broken badly, and there were several obvious bloodstains.

In what state did Jiang Jianming communicate with them at the time?

Tang Zhen was cold all over, he didn't dare to think about it.

There was no one in the mecha, and he didn't give up to take photos of those severed limbs.

Li Youfang whispered: "It may have been taken away... If someone else killed an alien creature and saw Jiang Jianming, who was also a Yin Beidou, then whether he was alive or... should be taken back to the fortress."

Tang Zhen shook his head, his voice unsteady: "The traces of this explosion are a bit like crystal particle bombs. In case it's not the people in the fortress who killed the subspecies, but—"

Suddenly, his searchlight slammed!

In the far darkness, among the overlapping spider corpses, a silhouette can be vaguely seen.

The light of the searchlight illuminated the blood-stained Silver Dipper badge on the man's uniform.

The author has something to say: show Jiang Jiang, the young man who made his little highness "fascinated by love".

Young Jiang Jiang: ...the milk coffee is cold (grieved and pursed his lips ((As he spoke, he quickly gave you a complete annihilation.
