MTL - Overturned Tower-Chapter 11 The Long Guns and Short Cannons of Happy Island
When Russell returned to the captain's cabin with Amirus' clothes in his arms, he clearly felt the airship vibrating and descending.
"This wound..."
Feeling the pain becoming more and more obvious, Russell hissed and took a breath.
Because he hit the wall when he was repelled before, Russell still feels numb in his hands. The back injury seemed to have become more serious after such a collision.
The blood flowed out at an accelerated rate, and the dark red traces gradually faded, wetting Russell's clothes.
Just looking at the bloodstains, one would feel that the injury was very serious.
But this is really just a flesh wound. The bullet spun away a small piece of flesh, but it just happened not to hurt a muscle or bone. The only problem was probably blood loss and infection.
After Amirus took the clothes, he didn't shy away from Russell's gaze, and put them on in the captain's room.
Russell politely looked away.
Only then did he notice that there were some odds and ends on the table beside Amirus.
That should be the bandage and hemostatic spray that Amirus dug out from the captain's cabin when he was looking for clothes.
"Let me help you deal with it first."
The old elf said so, and showed Russell the brand on the spray: "This is the 'Pain Relief No. 5' of ampoule biomedicine. It has the functions of sterilization, hemostasis and infection prevention, and can instantly paralyze the wound tissue to block the pain. .”
"Oh, I've heard this..."
Russell nodded: "It seems to be a countermeasure against acid weapons and flamethrowers."
He turned his back on the old elf and took off his shirt. His clothes were almost stuck to the wound, and he grinned in pain when he pulled them off.
The old elf skillfully removed the rags stuck to Russell's wound, and after spraying it four or five times in a row, he picked up the dressing and medical bandages to help Russell bandage.
His movements were extremely skillful and agile, and he said to Russell in a very relaxed tone: "Well, but gunshot wounds can also be used. Although it is not as good as the 'Guachuang' series, but this level of injury, this level of early treatment is enough .
"I'll help you re-treat it later, and you should be almost fine tomorrow morning."
"Hey?"
Russell was taken aback.
After getting off the airship, do you still want to go with His Excellency Amirus?
"Why," Amirus asked in surprise, "Do you have any other places to go on Happy Island?"
"...not yet."
Russell told the truth.
Although he knew that his uncle was a director of Tianen Group, Russell didn't even know his name, where he lived, or what he looked like.
According to Russell's understanding, his uncle was married. Not only that, but he even has a daughter... who is also a teenager.
From his uncle's words, Russell felt that the other party's family relationship did not seem to be very harmonious.
After hearing the news, Russell didn't even want to go to his house to bother him. It would be bad if the family quarreled.
—Originally, he needed his uncle's care and arranging work for him, so he had to go elsewhere to minimize trouble for the other party.
This is proper courtesy.
Even if he will be assigned a domicile after he officially takes office... But now he is indeed homeless.
Russell originally planned to find a hotel for one night after landing. At least you don't have to sleep in the park like a stray cat.
After reporting to Tianen Group tomorrow, he will naturally have a place to live tomorrow night.
but…
"Since you have no place to live, you might as well come with me. My private medical team can help you deal with the injury in the shortest possible time, and guarantee that there will be no scars. These are all trivial compensations."
Amirus spoke gently, and said slowly: "No matter where you are going tomorrow, I can send you to your destination in time. Whether it is a floating car or a helicopter... If you want, I can also borrow you car as a means of transportation."
It is said to be borrowed, but it is actually given away.
It's just a more euphemistic and more acceptable way of saying it.
"It doesn't matter what the scars are..."
Russell murmured, and said with a wry smile: "But gifts and so on are exempted. You can stay with me for one night, and something to eat is enough."
Although for Amyrus, Russell did save his life; but Russell knew in his heart that he had done nothing at all, and the real hero was actually Bad Day.
It's okay to grab a meal or something... But if you have the cheek to ask for a gift, it would be too much.
But Russell did not completely reject the elder's kindness: "As for the accommodation and the treatment of the wound, I will trouble you."
While they were chatting, the old man had already treated Russell's wound, and was wiping his **** hands with a handkerchief.
At this time, with a burst of vibration and shaking, the airship had landed on the ground.
Before leaving the captain's room, Amirus pulled out a data cable from behind his ear, and asked Russell, "Then let's add the contact information first?"
"it is good…"
Russell nodded.
He took off a dust cover from the prosthetic hand on his left arm, revealing a row of interfaces of different models, and took the data cable that Amyrus pulled out from behind the ear, and inserted it into it.
Before Russell's eyes, a green frame appeared, and the font quickly appeared and flickered:
[WARNING: Attempting to connect physically...]
[The access side sets the connection rule to -conservative mode]
[This physical link will not unlock data exchange permissions]
[This physical connection will not unlock administrator privileges]
Immediately afterwards, Amirus' personal business card appeared.
ARMILUS (ARMILUS-10/3) advanced authority user
[Thoth Ling Neng] Director, Director of the Third R&D Department
[Touterling Energy Branch in Happy Island] General Manager
Above is a personal portrait of Amyrus. With Russell's thoughts, you can also switch left and right, switching back and forth among the three images of half-body front, half-body sideways, and full-body front.
At the bottom there are three buttons:
【Follow】【Report】【Favorite to Category】
If you enable higher-level permissions, there are also options such as "data exchange", "information management", "contract management", and "memory management".
After Russell clicked on Follow, watching the "Follow" button quickly jumped from the state of "Followed" to "Follow each other".
After a little hesitation, Russell still added Amirus to the friend category of "Master".
"There are not many people with my business card, so I will not open the shield here."
Amirus added to Russell: "If you have anything to do, you can contact me at any time. I will reply when I am free."
The way to add friends is very strict.
In addition to the physical link in person, only by knowing the other party's personal identification code can you click "Follow" remotely. Those who can do this, apart from trusted friends in real life, probably only the immediate boss who knows the personal identification code can do it.
Russell followed Amirus and left the captain's cabin.
Although the wound was properly treated and bandaged, his **** appearance still looked very scary.
The passengers who were about to get off the plane were shocked when they saw his appearance. Yet they did nothing.
Russell was not spoken to, asked what happened to him, photographed or pointed at. Instead, he pretended not to see Russell and regarded Russell as air.
Russell was stunned for a moment by the attitude of avoiding him, as well as the astonishment and fear hidden in their eyes.
...What are they afraid of?
And at this time.
The rumble of a helicopter came from not far away.
With a large area of shadow covering and covering, three armed helicopters approached the airship that had just landed on the ground without warning.
Just seeing the appearance of the helicopter made Russell stunned—
There is nothing special about the larger helicopters on both sides. The pitch-black matte paint, if flying at night, might be able to sneak into the night without making a sound.
But the smaller helicopter in the middle...like itasha, is painted with a very conspicuous pink primer.
[Little Liuli full of vitality] [Are you feeling happy today] [The secret of happiness is a smile] and other slogans in different colors and cute fonts are printed on the helicopter.
There is also a set of laser devices on both sides of it, which looks very expensive, and can be seen in all four directions. The logo projection of the "Tianen Daily" is as big as half a helicopter.
Russell was on Sogo Island and had never seen such a posture.
At sunset, the pink helicopter hangs high in the sky, and the dazzling projection brilliance makes it look like a pink neon sun. UU reading www.uukanshu. com
The other two larger helicopters landed on both sides first.
They stopped in the air when they were close to the ground and still had a certain height, hanging down a rope ladder.
The huge wind pressure of the helicopter forced the passengers who were just about to disembark from the airship to come back. Most of them screamed and scattered from the door and hid back in their seats. Amirus grabbed Russell by the shoulders and motioned for him to stand behind him.
"...Are these people here to pick you up?"
Russell breathed out the virtual keyboard with his mind, tapped his right hand repeatedly in the void, and sent a private message to Amyrus with the friend he just added.
"No."
Amirus chuckled and replied with a message: "This is just a media reporter called by me.
"As for the remaining two helicopters, they were prepared by Tianen Daily for this young reporter...to ensure the three elements of the interview: 'correct interview attitude', 'clear interview content', and 'safety of interviewers'."
Afterwards, Amirus added another sentence.
"While protecting her, it is also urging her to be as objective and responsible as possible in her reporting."
…Media, journalists?
Russell looked back to confirm the equipment on the three armed helicopters.
Except for the slightly smaller one in the middle, the other two are visually equipped with missiles, rockets, 25mm cannons, and even anti-fortification bombing weapons. And even the mini-helicopter in the middle is equipped with multiple machine guns and anti-tank missiles.
—These three helicopters add up to twelve tubes for the machine guns alone.
Russell's expression was a little subtle.
Do you reporters from Happy Island use "long guns and short guns" to the interviewees like this?
