Chapter 72 Pink Fat
Chapter 72 Pink Fat...
Mikael woke up in the underground shelter. The backup generator made a huge noise all the time during operation. As for its power supply effect, it can be seen from the incandescent lamps above his head that flashed from time to time.
His eyelids were burning and he could only open a small gap. His mouth was so dry that he couldn't even squeeze out saliva. His tongue seemed to be stuck to the upper palate, which made him have no desire to speak.
He didn't know how long he had slept. He turned his neck and felt that his head was unusually heavy. The pillow behind his head was warm, soft and fragrant. Mikael couldn't help but adjust his sleeping position, turned his head to the right, and hugged the pillow with his left hand.
Of course, there was no pillow. His nails slammed on the rough cement wall of the shelter, and a needle-piercing pain rushed into his mind.
But before he could groan in pain, he felt his face buried in the warmer, softer and more fragrant "pillow".
Through a thin layer of "pillowcase", Mikael could feel the muscles underneath suddenly contract and stiffen - this was not a pillow at all, but the waist of a certain girl.
Mikael held his breath immediately after his nose was squeezed, and saliva finally came out again. After it slightly soaked his mouth, he swallowed it with a "gulp".
The sound was particularly abrupt in the silence, so that the girl's gradually relaxed waist tightened again.
"Gu... Gu..."
Since they were too close, Mikael could clearly hear the sound of the other's stomach and intestines moving, and vaguely, he could also feel the heartbeat.
Then, another clearer beating sound also came in - it was his own heartbeat.
One clear, one erratic, the beating of the two hearts almost accelerated and increased at the same time, until the beating sounds gradually overlapped.
No!
Mikael couldn't hold it anymore!
He quickly got up and stumbled to find the simple toilet under the guidance of the road sign drawn on the cardboard.
Five minutes later, after draining the water, washing himself, and holding his breath for the same amount of time (in fact, he didn't need to breathe, but the smell would go into his nose), he walked out of the stinking toilet.
Rubbing his still sore eyes, Aldemir was awakened by the footsteps, looked at him sleepily, and instantly jumped up, lowering his voice and shouting excitedly: "Captain Mikael is awake!"
After the soldiers surrounded him and quarreled for a few times, the fatigue came again. One by one, they leaned against the rough and cold wall again without knowing it, and then sat down, talked a few words, and fell asleep again.
Mikael counted and found that there were only a dozen soldiers around him. This was not because of the heavy casualties - the actual casualties were naturally not small, but because he solved the most important problem, no matter how heavy the casualties of the fifth team were, they would not be reduced to this extent.
There are about the same number of soldiers and a few surviving military policemen maintaining order in the civilian shelter separated by a wall. There are more than 200 survivors there, most of whom are infected with Honkai disease. This is the result of the Fifth Squad's day and night search and rescue in the past two days.
Yes, two days. It is now the 50th hour after the outbreak of Honkai, and Mikael has been in a coma for 38 hours.
Of course, their mission is not just to maintain order. Once someone infected with Honkai disease becomes a dead soldier, it will... Fortunately, this situation has not occurred yet.
As for the others... Himiko is still searching for survivors with the remaining soldiers of the Fifth Squad and the Support Company, even though they have already searched the West City and there are almost no more survivors.
And Mobius is even more strange. He has not returned to the shelter for two days.
Of course, there is also the most shocking news--
"This morning, the Herrscher tried to escape from the sea, but was repelled by the Fire Chaser No. 1, which had been on alert on the sea since it was forced to land. Captain Himiko said that it seemed that a large task force had been mobilized to try to block the Herrscher's escape from the sea."
Aldemir told him.
In response, Mikael only wanted to say:
Fire Chaser No. 1 is really lucky.
And...how is the third Herrscher still alive?
"That's not clear. It was Captain Ellie who carried you back at the time...why don't you go ask her?"
Mikael returned to Alicia.
She leaned against the wall, closed her eyes, lowered her head, and her chest rose and fell regularly-as if she was really asleep.
"Ellie?"
"Alicia?"
She didn't respond.
Mikael blew into his hand twice, and then scratched her waist.
When his fingertips touched, he could clearly feel the muscles in her waist tighten again, and even her breathing suddenly quickened for a moment.
Mikael touched his nose and took the opportunity to smell the body fragrance left on his fingertips. How could he not know that Ellie was shy because of the unprecedented close contact just now?
But it doesn't matter, he is sure to wake up a person pretending to sleep.
He leaned over and whispered to Ellie's ear, which had not yet become pointed: "Pink fat..."
Before he said the word "po", he screamed.
The soldiers around him were awakened, but they only saw Ellie grabbing Mikael's ear and opening the door of the shelter.
"Puff!"
More than one person couldn't help laughing-although Captain Mikael was very strong, he had no status in front of Alicia.
After leaving the shelter, Ellie let go of her hand angrily.
Walking among the ruins, Mikael fell back half a step with a guilty conscience, and followed closely behind Ellie's hazy back in the dim moonlight.
But he soon found that Ellie's steps were a little unnatural. After a little thought, he understood that it was because his thighs were numb from being pillowed for a long time, so he took two quick steps until they were shoulder to shoulder, and after a slight hesitation, he took her arm.
Ellie shook her body and acquiesced to this intimate contact.
"It's my fault. At that time, the third Herrscher had no power to fight back. I felt that I had won, so I didn't kill her immediately. When I slowly walked to her side, the snake-shaped Honkai beast that you had fought with suddenly drilled out from the ground and took the Herrscher away. Oh, yes, the headquarters has named the Honkai beast-Shesha, a judgment-level Honkai beast."
Mikael silently covered his forehead.
Although Alicia took the responsibility on herself, Mikael felt that it was his fault.
He should know that Shesha might have the ability to resurrect from the dead, no, he definitely knew it.
But firstly, I was thinking about Ellie at the time, and I deliberately ignored this point, and even forgot to tell Mebius and Himiko privately. Secondly, I also felt that Shesha's recovery might take several hours or even more than ten hours, so I was just hoping for the best.
But it's okay to be upset, there's no need to regret it - Mikael reminded himself.
"What's the situation of the third Herrscher now? Aldemir said that it tried to escape from the sea this morning?"
"Well..." Ellie nodded to confirm this, "but it should be seriously injured. The Chaser No. 1 was anchored at the mouth of the river in ship mode and could not use rail guns, but it easily repelled the Herrscher with missiles."
"Uh..." Mikael pondered for a moment and asked, "But why didn't it escape from the land? The headquarters didn't seem to have any intention of reinforcing us, which is definitely a flaw for the Herrscher. Moreover... the third Herrscher can transform into lightning in a short period of time and move at the speed of light. If it wants to escape, how could it be easily discovered and repelled?"
Ellie tilted her head, obviously a little confused, "The first question... maybe it is afraid of us? The second question... is it too seriously injured to fully exert its power?"
Mikael shook his head slightly, he couldn't figure it out for the time being.
If we use the situation of the second Herrscher as an analogy, all the behaviors of the third Herrscher should be explained by "instinct", that is, its behavior can be understood by analogy to ordinary animals.
But "instinct" does not mean "stupidity". Snakes, wolves, eagles...many animals are also labeled as "cunning" and "sinister" by humans.
Mikael rubbed his eyebrows - the problem is not serious as long as the third Herrscher is still trapped in East City.
What he needs to consider now is his own problem.
