Starting Cultivation in Wasteland-Chapter 662 - 532: The Supreme’s Dignity

At the Airport Hospital, Qu Jianlei's battle was brief yet intense, but the impact was indeed not significant.

This was related to the structure of the hospital, as the advanced care area was built exceptionally solid, suitable to be used as a fortress in case of war.

Moreover, the hospital covered a vast area with low buildings, and after all, the most abundant resource on Star No. 4 is land.

In addition, the Airport Hospital was far from the city center, with few residents around, and the main battle took place inside the wards.

It could be said that outside the advanced care area, many people in other parts of the hospital didn't even notice in time.

There were four people taking care of Fahim, besides Lor and the Water Attribute, there was one A-level Earth Attribute and one B-level Gold Attribute.

The latter two survived the battle—mainly because Qu Jianlei had no interest in dealing with them.

The incident was reported to the Cyan Blade Commerce Association immediately, but unfortunately, at that moment, no one dared to come and investigate.

The people from the association were primarily frightened, considering Fahim's condition, the opponent still wouldn't let up!

Previously, this force had been wildly targeting Bida and the Customs Enforcement Division, and the Cyan Blade Commerce Association didn't mind seeing them make enemies everywhere.

Who would have thought that they would then turn on Fahim, not even giving face to Bu Shang Supreme.

Fahim's condition was miserable, barely more than a breath away from death, suffering a second poison attack, and his vitality was rapidly declining.

According to the doctors' judgment, even the most optimistic estimate would not exceed three days.

In the latter half of the night, the Cyan Blade Commerce Association sent a B-level—whose medical skills were quite proficient.

In fact, even A-levels did not dare to come, fearing an ambush, given the opponent's cunning and experience, they could very well seize such an opportunity.

What was particularly crucial was that the opponent was utterly ruthless, facing three major forces simultaneously and still taking the initiative to attack.

The arriving B-level warrior communicated with the hospital, and they finally arranged to execute a wake-up procedure.

This was to forcibly awaken Fahim, to hear his supreme last words and instructions, and to facilitate posthumous arrangements.

However, forcing the body to awaken taps into extreme human potential and causes significant harm to the patient, perhaps they might die before waking up.

Such a major decision could not be made by a mere B-level, not even by the Earth Attribute A-level present there.

On this planet, the only one who could make the call was Amestina the Supreme.

People in the hospital hoped she could arrive quickly, because the later it got, the lower the probability of a successful awakening.

In reality, the success rate of awakening was already not very high, with cranial and thoracic surgery being the most basic requirements.

But Fahim's body had calcified to a state of being not only hard but also brittle.

Amestina also wanted to rush over, but she needed to contact Guardian Supreme Bu Shang first.

During Supreme Fahim's critical illness, he was sneak-attacked again, and now he's about to die—won't Star No. 4 give an explanation?

Bu Shang roughly understood the situation and bluntly stated, the incident happened at the Airport Hospital, which isn't part of the city district.

Moreover, the opponent didn't deploy any supreme-level combat power, so how am I supposed to intervene?

Of course, the matter wasn't small, but Star No. 4 is so large, how many things happen every day, can I manage all of them?

In the end, I suggest you negotiate well with the other party, our Star No. 4 can't afford to be tossed around by you both!

Bu Shang's words, intentionally or unintentionally, accused the other side—if it weren't for you two Supremes causing trouble on Star No. 4, would it have come to this?

Amestina was at a loss too, so she decided to go there at daylight.

She thought she wasn't afraid of dying, but the enemy excelled in night battles, so why give them an advantage by entering their turf?

Anyway, she'd still be going to the Airport Hospital alone at dawn.

There were only three from the Cyan Blade Commerce Association at the hospital, and hearing Amestina say she'd come at dawn, they were a bit speechless.

The Earth Attribute A-level was also injured, the lightest injuries, as the attribute's affinity made his body very hardy.

And that's because he was cautious not to alert the opponent and didn't don his Rock Armor at the start, otherwise, he might not even have those light injuries.

Hearing this, he couldn't help but sigh, "She's scared."

"Don't speak recklessly," the Gold Attribute B-level glanced at him, this one was responsible for technical affairs and was more timid.

The other B-level ignored them and directly asked the hospital's expert, "Will waiting until dawn for the awakening increase the success rate?"

The expert, who'd been hurriedly dragged from home, twitched his lips at the question.

But he also knew that the other party was not someone he could provoke, so he could only sigh, "It's already a miracle if he survives until dawn."

The face of the A-level Earth Attribute warrior darkened, "Then think of a way; if he survives until dawn, you can survive too."

Feeling unreasonable, right? But that's how superpower warriors operate, and the Cyan Blade Commerce Association is especially known for its ironclad rules.

Then go ahead and act now, the expert really wanted to say this, but truly didn't dare.

Even as an expert, if the other party killed him, it would only be a sin to atone for—at worst, killing an expert and having a longer redemption period.

The two B-level warriors didn't dare to advise either, even though they were very aware that the association running wild on Star No. 4 could very possibly lead to serious consequences.

The reason is simple; the A-level Earth Attribute warrior was also under great pressure.

He didn't die in the course of protecting the Supreme, nor was he even seriously injured, which was already a serious dereliction.

If when Amestina arrived, Fahim was truly dead, this person really wouldn't know how to make amends.

Fortunately, Fahim's life was still hanging by dawn when Amestina finally arrived.

However, the expert had already advised not to attempt awakening again, as the chances of success were infinitesimally small.

The probability of dying on the operating table was a definite one hundred percent.

Amestina somewhat wanted to insist, but the B-level warrior skilled in medical techniques said, "It is also a Supreme's dignity."

He rushed to support at the risk of his life later, not being present at the incident, so he dared to say a word.

Amestina was taken aback, sighed, and contacted the association again.

The higher-ups of the association exchanged brief communication and also did not support awakening because... were Fahim's last words really important?

The Storage Talisman on him had already been taken into Amestina's custody; how much value could the last words hold?

Importantly, the Supreme's corpse is very helpful for researching the properties of the poison; how can it be left to outsiders?

Of course, considering acting on Fahim's remains required many factors, but under no circumstances could it be allowed to benefit outsiders.

"Still need to keep the corpse?" Amestina hung up the communication and couldn't help but sneer.

However, keeping a corpse was still better than protecting a living person; it could be stored in the Storage Talisman.

Next was to quietly await Fahim's death.

During the waiting process, Amestina began to reconstruct the course of the battle last night.

There was basically nothing to reconstruct; it was all information they already knew, and the combat styles were very similar.

However, one problem remained: the Electromagnetic Attribute had posed as a doctor, the Poison Attribute was absent; where was that Earth Attribute?

The association personnel reviewed all surveillance footage, and after multiple discriminations, had to admit: no second person was found!

But the Fossil to Mud Technique clearly existed; otherwise, this battle wouldn't have been lost so badly.

If not for this A-level Earth Attribute, with such an inconceivable surprise attack, this battle might not even have been lost.

Thus, finding out how this person got close was very necessary to avoid repeating past mistakes in the future.

If the opponent's approach could be emulated, it would be of great benefit to our side—the association has always been known for its strong tactics.

The association's A-level Earth Attribute had a guess, but he didn't dare to say it out loud.

It's already difficult for an A-level Electromagnetic Attribute to cultivate, could it be they also mastered Earth Magic?

This guess was too outrageous and had suspicions of shirking responsibility—facing an A-level Attributeless, isn't losing normal?

However, the Gold Attribute B-level warrior also had a guess. He hesitantly asked, "Could it be... a Talisman?"

"What nonsense is that?" Amestina's face changed at these words, and she instinctively looked around.

Noticing nothing unusual around, she snorted coldly, "I don't want to hear about this anymore... do you think you know a lot?"

Upon hearing this, the B-level warrior immediately shut his mouth, feeling a bit aggrieved inside: I'm just helping with the analysis.

The enemy's foundation was obviously rich, not only having a Poison Attribute but also an A-level Electromagnetic, knowing about Talismans wasn't unusual, right?

However, what he said wasn't in vain, as after this, Amestina no longer dwelled on this issue.

Then everyone just waited for Fahim's death with peace of mind.

Once they gave up on treatment, it was akin to unplugging life support, yet he stubbornly held on until later in the afternoon before finally dying completely.

Even the expert who was pessimistic about him at dawn remarked, "Tsk, tsk, the Supreme's life force is indeed extraordinarily tenacious."

This wasn't just idle talk; how many general experts had experience saving a Supreme?

What made Amestina infuriated was that just as Fahim's vital signs disappeared, Bu Shang Supreme arrived.

He straightforwardly expressed regret over Fahim's death and stated that Star No. 4 hoped to acquire his remains for autopsy and analysis of the cause of death.

Amestina was furious upon hearing this, stating this Supreme's death was their fault, and now they wanted the remains as well? What were they thinking?

Bu Shang Supreme wasn't perturbed by her attitude; this kind of anger, he could understand.

But he still informed her as a matter of routine that it wasn't his idea, but rather a requirement from Star No. 4's government.

To thoroughly study the new toxin, what better than the body of a Supreme?
