My Exclusive Dream World Adventures

Chapter 83: 083 Necrosis
 

“It’s a pity, I still couldn’t do it with you in the end…”

Yang Jinxia watched as Chen Xu’s hand reached out into the air, followed by a fit of coughing blood, and then his hand fell limply. It was as if something had exploded in her head.

In the buzzing sound, that soft voice appeared again, “He’s dead, looks pretty awful.”

Yang Jinxia’s face changed and said, “He won’t die.”

“Jinxia, stop being stubborn. Didn’t you see that half of his body has turned to char?”

“I won’t let him die.”

Speaking, Yang Jinxia bent over, dragging Chen Xu’s body laboriously towards the direction of the shelter.

Suddenly, the broken head that was hanging above the tunnel disappeared, and a pitted metal head appeared instead, with dangerous red lights flickering in its eye sockets.

“S01?”

Yang Jinxia was somewhat surprised, then overjoyed, and hurriedly said, “Quick, Chen Xu is injured, take him to the medical center.”

“Okay.”

S01 jumped down from above, its originally sleek metallic body covered in scars, the left hand even missing a part, half of its body pitted and even more intimidating to look at.

At this moment, the red light in its eyes disappeared, returning to the original green, as it picked up Chen Xu from the ground and ran towards the direction of the shelter. It moved swiftly, and Chen Xu did not jostle at all in its arms.

Yang Jinxia struggled to keep up. As she entered the door connecting the shelter with the tunnel, she saw the exoskeletal mechanical arm that Chen Xu had left here, and suddenly stopped, putting it on.

…

Medical Center.

“You’ve come too late, multiple organs in his body have been destroyed by toxins, we must arrange for an organ transplant surgery immediately.”

A man’s three-dimensional hologram floated in front of Yang Jinxia.

S01 said, “There are now no organ stocks left.”

“There must be some at the joint military,” Yang Jinxia’s expression was still calm as she asked, “Is there any way to save his life, to keep him from dying in the next few months?”

The three-dimensional image shook its head, “No. Given his current condition, in another ten minutes, his brain will cease to function.”

“No, you’re lying.”

Yang Jinxia stared at the hologram, “With the human cryopreservation device, we can surely save his life, right?”

“This…”

“No.” S01 interrupted their conversation, “The shelter no longer has spare human cryopreservation devices.”

Yang Jinxia looked at Chen Xu in the treatment pod and said calmly, “I understand, obviously, those heroes of the shelter are more important to you. But… let’s get started.”

Standing quietly at the door, 2003, now holding a gun that hadn’t been there before, aimed it at S01 and pulled the trigger.

Green light in S01’s eyes unnaturally flickered, and its body seemed to freeze.

Yang Jinxia turned around, the exoskeletal mechanical arm grabbed its head.

With a bang, S01’s head was forcefully twisted off, sparks flying from the broken stump.

“I won’t let him die.”

Her expression remained calm, yet there was an undeniable determination in her voice.

With that, she released her grip, and S01’s head rolled onto the floor, the green light in its eyes flickering faintly before going out completely.

Yang Jinxia walked to the front of the treatment pod, opened the lid, and carried out the treated Chen Xu. With the assistance of the mechanical arm, she didn’t seem to struggle at all.

As she passed by 2003, she paused briefly, giving it a glance.

What 2003 had used was a high-power electromagnetic pulse gun, something that she had secretly made, unknown even to Chen Xu. It was specifically made to deal with S01.

This gun could only be powered by 2003’s built-in battery.

Moreover, with the power of this electromagnetic pulse gun, it was enough to destroy the chip of the 2003 responsible for firing it.

For it, firing the gun was tantamount to suicide.

But at the behest of its Sister Xia, it did not hesitate to pull the trigger.

“2003…”

Yang Jinxia paused for a moment then stepped outside, walking to the control center. She started one of the cryopreservation devices, removed the body inside, and placed Chen Xu inside.

Once she confirmed the device was running and Chen Xu’s body began to be cryopreserved, she said, “You stay here nicely, I’m going to deal with the aftermath.”

She went to the control panel and easily obtained the highest authority from the main computer.

Next, she began to pull up the shelter’s surveillance, confirming that all the Acid Ant Beasts had died out, and she also learned how the last dozen Acid Ant Beasts died.

According to the surveillance, after the Acid Ant Beasts had breached S01’s weapon platform, it showed its formidable combat machine’s strength, leaping out with a sword in hand, cutting down over a dozen Acid Ant Beasts, only sustaining minor injuries itself.

After killing the last Acid Ant Beast, it sheathed its sword before jumping down into the tunnel.

After watching the surveillance footage, she relaxed. For now, the shelter was safe.

…

Night.

In the brightly lit control center, a table was placed in front of the cryopreservation cabinet, and at the other end, Yang Jinxia sat.

On the table in front of her was a bowl of noodles. She picked up the chopsticks and tasted a bite.

“2003’s recipe is a bit complex, no matter how I make it, it never tastes quite right, not as authentic as when you make it.” Her voice was soft, and from her position, she could clearly see Chen Xu’s face through the transparent lid above.

“It’s okay that you can’t eat it now, at most a year, and you’ll be able to eat the noodles I make.”

She took another bite of noodles, paused for a while, then continued, “I’ve found the address of the joint military in the main computer. I’ve already planned it out, first to repair 2003. Its chip has burnt out, which should be fixable in the repair room.”

“And S01 too, it’s very strong and can protect us along the way.”

“Then, modify the transport vehicle and we can set out.”

“However, this will take some time, you have to be patient.”

“If everything goes smoothly, in a year, I’ll be able to take you to the joint military, to perform the organ transplant surgery. I’ve checked, the surgery is not difficult, find a good doctor, and the success rate is over eighty percent.”

“You don’t have to worry about the money, I’ll take both energy cores with me, these things are very valuable. Swapping out one is enough for the surgery expenses.”

“The other one we’ll keep.”

“I know, you don’t like to interact with people much. Yeah, every time I mention the people at the joint military, you’re completely indifferent.”

“So, how about it? Later, we can drive around, travel to different places, just the two of us, not bringing anyone else?”

As Yang Jinxia spoke, she seemed to hear a buzzing sound, a shadow of a young girl walked out from the side.

She acted as if she saw nothing, her eyes fixed on Chen Xu inside the cryopreservation cabinet, and said, “By the way, did I ever tell you, I used to have a good friend named Xiao Ya?”
