Balentine and the other captured men were seriously injured and rushed to a makeshift treatment room in the corner of the warehouse.
The portable fully automatic diagnostic and treatment equipment was very efficient. Half an hour later, most of the people's injuries were under control and they were pushed out by the ship's medical soldiers.
However, Balentine never came out.
Li Liang wandered outside the treatment room, feeling restless.
After he leaves, in theory, Balentin should become one of the decision-makers, leading the complex team together with Tamu and Sorge.
Especially in the absence of K and Cain, Balentine is naturally responsible for coordinating the Mayfly members in the team. Now only Balentine is captured. One possibility is that the situation was extremely dangerous at the time, and Balentine volunteered to take the rear. It was Tam and the others who were also captured at the same time, but were taken away by goblins.
As for the situation where the entire army is wiped out and only one person survives, there is no need to consider it. With the strength of the advisors and Sorge's calm decision, it is absolutely impossible to catch them all.
Li Liang also thought of a situation. The team might have split into two groups very early. Balentine was stranded in the wasteland and happened to encounter the goblin vanguard.
Combined with the fact that many of the captured people were miners or gang members, it is very likely that Tam and the others met survivors who escaped from the western mines, and at the same time learned important news and had to leave immediately, so Ba Lundin left behind to reorganize the survivors, while the others continued toward the western mines.
What news is most likely?
Li Liang walked back and forth, clenching and unclenching his left hand repeatedly, feeling increasingly uneasy.
News about Massey?
The Defiant was not on the route between Fort Zhenjie and the Western Pier, and was hidden in a rather secret trench... He kept telling himself this.
Besides, there are many escape submarines, and Cain's cronies, MS, are also very reliable.
Besides, the old man has always been very lucky. He was able to survive the Netherworld alone on his first trip to Zhenjie Fort.
Nothing could happen.
Yes, there is also Zhizhi beside Mesai.
He simply didn't believe that the aboriginal people on the small island of Chawu Realm and the monkeys who ate the Dream of Hermes as food were ordinary monkeys. According to the general movie plot, this kind of magical creature can often transform magnificently in desperate situations, so He then left Zhizhi to Mesai.
So it's other news, it must be other news, maybe the goblins have taken over the western mines or something like that.
Li Liang sat down on the edge of a giant gear. He stood up suddenly within a few seconds. He walked a few steps and stopped. After a while, he slowly walked back and sat down.
Not far away, the camera recorded his uneasy expression. Finally, Yuan Quan put down the machine and approached, whispering: "Are you okay...Don't worry, he was still awake just now...The fully automatic diagnostic and treatment device will definitely save him." …”
Li Liang shook his head.
At this time.
The door of the treatment room was pushed open. A medical officer took off his rubber gloves, looked around, and said to Yuan Quan: "Where is the deputy captain? The person she requested to pay special attention to is awake."
"Anqiao went to meet the goblin," Yuan Quan breathed a sigh of relief, "Can we go in?"
"Oh, sure," the medical officer said casually.
Li Liang walked quickly into the treatment room.
Balentine was lying on a portable fully automatic diagnosis and treatment machine, his whole body wrapped in fine white foam, and a mechanical probe was scanning back and forth above his eyes.
"Balentine, I am Li Liang."
"Mr. Li Liang," Balentine's mouth moved, "I want to know, how do you know Cain?"
Li Liang realized that this should be a matter of identity verification.
"I escaped from the southern death row with Yuan Zhen, but got separated. I was captured by the Mayfly people and taken into the Defender, and was imprisoned with Cain."
"I know that. Tell me something I don't know. For example, why Cain went to Zhenjie Fort with you at that time."
Li Liang was stunned for a moment, then thought about it and said, "She said she wanted to go on a trip."
"It is indeed the Lord's style..." Balentine smiled and said hoarsely, "I'm sorry, Mr. Li Liang, the goblin will use illusions to trick us. That kind of illusion can automatically change according to everyone's memory. I can't I used the information I knew to verify the authenticity, but I found that the character created by the illusion couldn’t reason. It knew who Cain was, but it couldn’t make up what Cain would say in that situation.”
Li Liang nodded: "Well...Balentine, how did you get caught by the goblin?"
"Is it safe here?"
"Safe," Li Liang had confirmed in advance. There were no traces of spirits around, the goblins did not peek through magic, and the deep space fleet had also deployed anti-eavesdropping equipment in this temporary camp.
"We encountered an escaping convoy on the way to the Western Mine. There were many cars and many people. The closer we got, the worse the news we got. Finally, it was confirmed that the Western Mine was occupied. Tam decided to let me and most of the people from the Mayfly Leaving behind, oh, there are also the wounded, two consultants, it, Sorge, Secret Technique, Saron, Brother Shui and a group of people continue to move forward.
Not long after they set off, one-seventh of the consultants noticed that the goblin was coming this way, and we immediately fled to the side, but it was too fast... No one expected that the goblin would advance so fast..."
"Then what?"
"After I broke off with Mayfly's men, the advisors took the wounded, Old Tang, Morris and the others to retreat north." Balentine's mouth twitched, "When I was captured here, I saw the members of their group. One, I heard from him that they encountered a sandstorm and got separated not long after."
"Who is he? Is he still alive?"
"Dead, the hands of goblins are very dark, and most people can't bear it for long," Balentine chuckled. "They torture people in more ways than when I was doing biological experiments. Living is more uncomfortable than death."
Li Liang sighed silently and asked softly: "Is there any news about the Defender?"
Balentine was silent for a long time, and then said slowly: "The Defender...is gone."
Li Liang's heart skipped a beat.
Balentine added: "But I heard that many people escaped."
"Has Mesai escaped?" Li Liang said in a hurry.
"I don't know," Balentine turned his head with difficulty, looked at Li Liang with a pair of eye sockets filled with white foam, and said tremblingly, "We don't know, maybe, maybe he escaped."
Li Liang slowly walked to the diagnostic instrument and held Balentine's arm: "It's okay."
"Mr. Li Liang, has the new world... been solved?" Balentine murmured.
Li Liang smiled: "Don't worry, it's okay. Take good care of yourself."
Balentine's Adam's apple moved, but in the end he did not tell the cruel news.
After walking out of the treatment room, Li Liang walked step by step to the gear, sat down slowly, and remained motionless like a sculpture for a long time.
Yuan Quan, who followed him out, had already understood the general meaning and didn't know what to say, so he could only stay with him in a daze.
Sudden.
boom!
A loud bang came from the other side of the warehouse, followed by a deafening siren.
The temporary camp was suddenly in chaos. The deep space fleet emergency response force guarding the camp moved into action. Xi'an drones passed overhead and rushed towards the direction of the explosion.
Yuan Quan grabbed a passing soldier and asked, "What exploded!"
The soldier hurriedly shouted: "The goblin is under attack!"
There was another explosion, the ground shook, and Li Liang slowly stood up.
Tam is indeed here.
