Alien Relic Hunter.

"Thirty seconds?! It's too late! Can't wait that long!" Yeger gritted his teeth, "Is there no other way? Didn't you say that the circuit system of this machine was made by you? Isn't there any emergency? A backdoor to reboot?"

"Yes, but manual operation is required." Just as he was speaking, Wilson had already unlocked the lock of the protective suit, drilled out of the iron barrel-like protective suit, and put his hand to a cover on the top of the cockpit plate.

But just when Wilson's fingers touched the cover, his body seemed to have been hit hard, and was instantly bounced back to the seat. The whole person twitched a few times and stopped moving. .

"What's wrong with you?! Hello?!" Yeger subconsciously reached out to pull Wilson, but just as he turned his head sideways, he just caught a glimpse of the screen on the side of the seat used to monitor vital signs - life The sign monitoring equipment was not connected to the mecha, so it was not affected by the electric shock and was still working normally.

But Wilson's heart rate shown above is zero, and the ECG is a straight line.

Wilson's heart stopped.

Yeger seemed to realize something, and turned to look at Wilson's fingers that had just touched the cover. The front ends of those fingers were charred black, and the nails even showed the appearance of carbonization and cracking.

"It's high-voltage electricity!" Yeger reacted instantly - the electric shock of the deep-sea giant eel had completely destroyed the body's insulating protective layer, and Yeger did not get electrocuted, thanks to this piece on his body that he originally thought was fundamental A diving suit with little protection.

This kind of high-voltage electricity is only transient, and will soon be conducted away by the sea water. As long as Wilson touches the metal cover a few seconds later, he will not be electrocuted... But now, whatever you say It's too late.

"..." Yeger took a deep breath, his expression a little blank.

Although Wilson's heart stopped beating, Yeger did not think that he was dead - coma and shock after electric shock are very common symptoms. There is a chance to save him.

The problem is that they have neither the conditions nor the time now.

Before Yeger's outstretched hand could reach Wilson, there was a muffled sound outside, and the entire cockpit tipped over to one side - the cockpit could no longer maintain its balance, which meant that it was used to adjust the The balance suspension device has been damaged, and the anchors of the mecha's footsteps have also been broken.

Yeger's heart filled with despair, and he withdrew his hand - it was pointless to rescue Wilson at this time, and even if it could be rescued, there would be only a few minutes left for the two of them.

"Boom!"

There was another muffled sound, the entire cockpit was shaking violently, a very obvious depression appeared on the inner wall of the cockpit, and a display screen originally installed there was directly split into several petals.

Wilson, who had lost the restraint of his diving suit, was thrown up, flew over in front of Yeger, and slammed into the other side of the cockpit.

"Thirty seconds... Thirty seconds should have come, why, why hasn't the operating system restarted automatically?" Yeger shook the joystick in vain, but the body didn't respond at all, and the screen was still pitch black.

"Move! Why don't you move!" Yeger roared, "Even if you can't move, at least let me detonate the torpedo!"

But just when Yeger fell into despair, a clear "Di Di" sound suddenly came from his ear, and he couldn't help turning his head to look in the direction of the sound - it was Wilson's vital signs monitoring equipment. , although Wilson is no longer in the seat, but the device's sensor patch has been attached to him.

The heart rate that had returned to zero turned out to be gradually rising. Yeger wiped his eyes in disbelief-although he could only hear the "beeping" of the machine, he seemed to be able to hear it faintly. The sound of a heart pounding in Wilson's chest.

The ECG that was originally a straight line also fluctuated again...

"Live... Live?!" Yeger was stunned, even temporarily forgetting that the two were still in danger.

Inside the diving suit is a fully automatic drug injector and a miniature pacemaker for first aid, but it is impossible for Wilson who takes off the diving suit to be rescued by these devices... At this moment, his heart rate And breathing is recovering at a speed that can be said to be "reborn", which can only be described by the words "medical miracle".

"How is this possible?" Yeger turned his head again. Wilson's body was curled up in a corner of the cockpit in a strange posture. The top of his head was torn open in the impact just now, and even the skull appeared large. The comminuted fracture of the range - if Wilson had a chance to be rescued after being electrocuted, then after hitting the wall, Yeger's heart was already too dead to die.

This kind of injury, even if the heart has not stopped, the military doctors on the battlefield will only shake their heads and sigh when they see it, and instead leave precious medicines and rescue opportunities to other wounded.

The brain has always been the most vulnerable point of human beings - the current cyborg prosthesis technology is extremely developed, even if the heart is damaged, as long as the brain tissue is properly preserved and not necrotic due to hypoxia and suffocation, an artificial heart can still be replaced. The wounded survived.But if the damaged part is the brain, even the most powerful prosthetic doctor can't do anything about it.

After all, an artificial brain has not yet been developed.

"Brains and brains are spilled out, shouldn't he survive?" Yeger muttered in his heart, "Perhaps Wilson is a high-level fortified person, his body is very tenacious, his heart is recovering on its own and he is in the final struggle? Even if The heart has recovered... he shouldn't be able to wake up, right?"

What Yeger didn't expect was that the slap in the face came so quickly.

As the number representing the heart rate on the screen gradually climbed above sixty, a dry moan came from Wilson's throat, and his originally motionless body twitched.

"This... this is impossible!" Yeger widened his eyes and shook his head mechanically.

The control system that should have been restored did not recover, and the body that should have moved did not move, but the person who should have been dead came alive.

Is there anything more incredible than this?
But this incredible thing is happening right in front of Yeger's eyes at this moment.

Wilson supported the inner wall of the cockpit with his hand and slowly climbed up. He turned around and looked at Yeger with his cyborg eye-his other normal eye could no longer be opened, dark red The blood is constantly overflowing from the crevices of his eyes and dripping down the contours of his cheeks.

"You... are you still alive?" Yeger opened and closed his upper and lower lips a few times and asked a somewhat stupid question.

"Alive." Wilson said solemnly, he took a staggering step forward, trying to get back to his seat, but at this time the deep-sea giant eel outside launched another attack on "Zorkok Kai", violently In the shock, Wilson lost his balance again and sat down on the ground.

"Your head... is it all right?" Yeger stared at the wound on Wilson's head. In the deepest part, the gray-white brain tissue was clearly visible - Yeger could be sure that the broken bones were definitely Quite a few pierced into Wilson's brain.

Why...he would "live" and still seem to be sane?

"It's okay." Wilson whispered, "My body has been remodeled, and this injury is not fatal to me."

"Reconstruction... So it is." At this time, Yeger could only accept this statement, "Let's not talk about this, our current situation is very bad, the body is estimated to have left the ground, and the cockpit is always there. It may be pressed into a discus by water pressure, and the two of us will become the meat in this discus... Can you restart the operating system again?"

"Thirty seconds should have passed, right?" Wilson's gaze moved slightly upward and stopped on the cover. "The operating system... didn't it restart automatically?"

"No." Yeger shook his head, "As you can see, I still can't control the body, and I can't grasp the outside situation at all... Even if I want to blow myself up and die with those deep-sea giant eels, I can't do it—"

Before the word "arrive" of "can't be done" was uttered, the body received another heavy blow. Yeger bit his tongue heavily, and the blood spattered on the inside of the helmet mask. .

"Hey..." Yeger gasped in pain, and he almost bit his tongue off.

Almost killed himself by biting his fucking tongue.

Wilson's situation is also not much better. A steel pipe that broke from nowhere and fell through his lower abdomen... But compared with the wound on the head, the steel pipe inserted in the stomach is about the thickness of a grasp. It's just a "minor injury".

Wilson looked down at his abdomen. The dark red blood on his clothes was spreading and spreading. As his breathing affected the muscles in his chest and abdomen, the speed of the blood was getting faster and faster.

"Shit...damn...he, fuck!" Yeger scolded inarticulately, "Just hold on, I'll take the medical kit..."

Yeger pulled out the medical box that Yeger had tucked under the seat with great effort, and lifted the lid.

After seeing the common emergency medicines in the medical box, Yeger hesitated for a while. He first looked at the hemostatic bandages and the medicine, and then looked at the disposable morphine preparations fixed on the inside of the medical box with elastic bands. Syringe, then took the latter out and threw it at Wilson.

According to normal first aid measures, at this time, we should find a way to stop the bleeding. It is best to pull out the steel pipe and sew the blood vessels, and use something like a stapler to staple the muscles and skin at the wound... Even if The steel tube cannot be removed, and at least a hemostatic gel should be applied around the wound to stop the blood from continuing to flow.

But the severely deformed depressions on the four walls of the cockpit are constantly telling Yeger that at this time, any rescue measures are so unnecessary, what tourniquets, hemostatic gel... At this time, all Might as well be a pain reliever.

It has to be said that the tenacity of this temporarily modified body is still far beyond Yeger's expectations-every time it is attacked by a deep-sea giant eel, Yeger thinks that the body is about to disintegrate, but it insists hold till now.

He also took out a syringe for himself and stuffed it into the fully automatic injection compartment on the diving suit.

As the liquid medicine was injected into the body, the pain on the tongue was slightly relieved.

"I, I don't know what to say now..." Although he had given himself a painkiller, the injury on his tongue still made Yeger's pronunciation very strange, as if he was holding a big mouthful of ice cream, "Perhaps, We should take this opportunity to write a suicide note... but I think, even if we leave a suicide note, no one should be able to see it."

"I'm not going to die here," Wilson said.

"Yes, we won't die here." Yeger nodded and said following the other party's words, the time has come, and he doesn't want to argue with the person who is about to die with him.

Wilson didn't answer, but took the steel pipe with both hands and pulled it out of his body.

The image of the blood rushing in the imagination did not appear. The wound on Yeger's abdomen was only exposed for a short moment, and the terrifying hole was blocked by the wriggling granulation.

"What, what?!" Yeger's eyes widened, and he immediately moved the focus of his eyes to Wilson's head-similarly, at the wound on the top of his head, a blood-red flesh condensed at some point in time. The membrane wraps the wound.

"You said it was you who transformed people... But, I have never seen such a transformed person." Yeger said in a trembling voice, "This kind of recovery ability... is not something that can be obtained by transformation surgery, it is absolutely impossible... You, Who are you? No...what are you?"

"This is not the time to discuss this with you." Wilson gave Yeger a deep look and stood up from the ground. "If you want to live, cooperate with me."

[PS here is a rumor, although there are indeed rich blood vessels and nerves in the tongue, but even if the tongue is bitten off, it is difficult for a person to die directly because of it... The so-called "suicide by biting the tongue", according to the author's own research, It should be the death of suffocation caused by swallowing the bitten tongue and blocking the trachea, or death from shock due to severe pain... But no matter how the cause of death is sorted, it will not be too much blood loss. 】
