Chapter 670: Touched (1)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The difficult night finally passed. When the morning sun came, the night watchman heaved a sigh of relief.
After a round of counting, they lost a few more people at night. The most terrifying thing was that their ammunition was basically exhausted. If they encountered mutated beasts next, they could only rely on hand-to-hand combat.
The sky was clear and dotted with stars.
Inside the fort, Song Shi walked out and casually drank a tube of nutrient fluid. His throat moved slightly, and a rather strange taste filled his mouth.
His gaze condensed and crossed the wilderness to look in the direction of the base city through the morning fog.
The faint sound of artillery fire made him sigh. He retracted his gaze and observed his surroundings, feeling powerless.
“It’s been more than a month. Including what I experienced previously, it’s equivalent to me staying in this illusion for a long time.”
He sighed in his heart. “Is this the life without cheats? It’s simple and there are no miracles. There are only footprints one step at a time.”
Compared to the struggle to survive around him, Song Shi was not afraid of death. To him, his current experience was more important to him.
After all, he was not an existence of this world. He was purely forced to come here. However, after experiencing so much, he still felt that his trip here was not in vain.
Having relied too much on the system to improve himself, he had indeed forgotten how normal people lived. He felt that he had become much calmer.
“The base city still hasn’t eliminated the mutated beasts. We still have to stay here.”
Zhang Jiqing walked over. His face was yellow and lifeless.
“Then I’ll leave it to fate.’
Song Shi looked at the car and cannon that had already run out of fuel. Now that there was no way out, he could only rely on luck.
If he was unlucky, he would die even if the mutated beasts attacked him on a large scale.
If he was lucky and there were no mutated beasts, he would naturally be able to return safely when reinforcements arrived.
Song Shi was already prepared. At most, he would die in battle and start the next reincarnation here.
RUMBLE!
The cannon fire in his ears became louder. Song Shi subconsciously looked up and saw a black dot rapidly enlarging from the horizon.
“This is…”
Song Shi watched in shock as the black dot turned into a bird in the blink of an eye. It was made of metal and was reflecting a cold luster.
“Fighter jet?”
He looked at Zhang Jiqing.
“It seems to be an Iron Eagle fighter jet. Is it out to investigate the situation?”
Zhang Jiqing watched and realized that the fighter jet was flying towards them. “If only they were here to save us. We can return to the base city safely in half a minute on the fighter jet.”
“That’s right. As long as this kind of fighter jet doesn’t go deep into the wilderness, it can basically go anywhere.”
The Adjutant sighed, but he did not have much hope.
It was impossible for a fighter jet of this level to care about them.
Just as everyone thought that the fighter jet would fly over, the latter quickly lowered its altitude and landed beside them.
“How come?”
Zhang Jiqing was in a daze. “The Iron Eagle is a high-level fighter jet. It can withstand the attacks of high-level birds. Why did it land here?”
“Could there be something special around here?”
The Adjutant was puzzled.
In this world, other than the superhuman system, all kinds of technology, especially military technology, were very advanced. Under the threat of mutated beasts, all kinds of military technology developed very quickly. However, powerful weapons were controlled by superhumans, and very few served ordinary people.
The fighter jet landed like an eagle. It was not as slow as Song Shi remembered.
A circle of violent wind swept up the sand and dust. Song Shi narrowed his eyes slightly and watched as the fighter jet opened. Someone jumped down agilely. He took a few feet with each step and another hundred feet with each step. In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of everyone.
This person was wearing a black close-fitting battle suit. The key parts were all solid metal or special materials. There were alloy knives hanging from his waist and a few flying knives stuck in his legs.
His face was well-defined and he looked to be in his thirties. His eyes were sharp and spirited, making people not dare to look at him directly.
Song Shi could sense an energy in this person’s body. He was definitely a superhuman.
The latter quickly looked at him and said indifferently, “Follow me.” Everyone looked puzzled. Song Shi was also puzzled. “Reason?”
“My lady is looking for you.”
The man’s eyes were also filled with confusion. He did not understand why Miss would come to look for this person when she had just recovered from her serious injuries.
“Your lady.”
Song Shi’s gaze flickered as he looked in the direction of the fighter jet and muttered, “No way, so fast.”
His heart fluctuated as he jumped down from the cannon and ran towards the fighter jet.
A man in a white robe and plain clothes stood at the entrance of the fighter jet. This person’s hair was slightly white. When he saw Song Shi, he moved aside and said, “Miss is inside.”
Song Shi did not ask any questions. He jumped onto the fighter jet and walked past a cubicle. He saw a bed inside and a beautiful woman lying on it.
The latter’s face was pale, and her lips were dry. She looked like she had just recovered from a serious illness. She was smiling at Song Shi, her eyes filled with gentleness and longing.
Song Shi walked up and hugged her tightly.
Only he could understand how excited he was to see his family after being trapped in this reincarnation world.
“You’re really here!”
Song Shi’s voice was low. He had never been so touched before. Wuyou had really come to save him. Even though it looked like she had failed, he still could not calm down.
“If I don’t come, who else can help you?”
Li Suran, or to be precise, Wuyou, rolled her eyes at Song Shi.
The butler at the door outside was especially confused when he heard their conversation.
When did Miss get to know this person and look so intimate with him? Could he be her lover outside?
At this moment, Song Shi said, “You failed, right? However, since you can find me, it means that you have something at least.”
“At least I kept some foundation. It’s not like there’s nothing left.”
Wuyou chuckled. “I’ve recovered a little, so I came to look for you quickly. I’m afraid that if you die, it won’t be easy to find you.”
She spent a night recovering and accumulated a portion of her strength. After locking onto Song Shi’s location at dawn, she used the family’s fighter jet to find him.
“Thank you.”
Song Shi said seriously. Actually, Wuyou could ignore him because he knew that she would not die, but she still came.
“I still need you to help me. Besides, you can’t be trapped here for too long.”
Wuyou chuckled.
These words reminded Song Shi of a child. “Where’s the baby?”
“The baby’s fine.” Wuyou said, “I can’t possibly foolishly risk that, right?”
“That’s good.”
Song Shi heaved a sigh of relief.
When he relaxed, the white-robed man at the door was stunned.
What? Miss already had a baby?
When did this happen? Could it be with this man? Oh my god, what did I hear?
“Oh, your people are not bad. Let them help save the others outside. They’re the reason I’m still alive.” Song Shi said bluntly.
“Okay.”
Wuyou had no objections. “Uncle Fang, help them.”
“Yes, my lady.”
Uncle Fang replied, “Miss, let’s go back quickly. You still need to recuperate.”
“Let’s go back.”
Wuyou looked at Song Shi. “How do you feel here?”
“In the beginning, I was quite aggrieved, but I gradually got used to it, especially when I experienced advancing step by step. It’s quite interesting..”
