Fatal Strike: Paladins Mercenary Road

Chapter 613 Ebola?
Mountain Eagle had just arrived at the Brown Bear camp. He hadn't had much rest in the past few days. Now he just wanted to make a hearty dinner, take a hot bath and go to sleep. He didn't want to take part in this rescue operation which was obviously fishy.

It wasn't that he was callous, but the state trooper's reaction made him a little suspicious.

First of all, the Alaska State Troopers should not be so enthusiastic. Secondly, even if they were going to rescue, when a small plane crashed in the wilderness, the most important thing to do was to lock the location and send a rescue helicopter, rather than sending a large number of people and police dogs to that place.

As long as the mountain planes in Alaska fly at a low altitude, the noise they make when flying is very loud.

Little Ruby said that he saw signs of human activity. Those were definitely not footprints, but obvious signs like smoke from a fire.

If a survivor of a plane crash hears any noise, he should make a move to call for help if he wants to survive.

The state police's request is more like a capture operation than a search and rescue operation!
Shanying already had enough troubles of his own at the moment, and he really had no intention of joining the so-called search and rescue.

Old Joe saw what Shanying was thinking. He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, I'll go and reject them."

As he spoke, Old Joe pointed out the window, where state trooper Michael was shaking a piece of beef jerky at Barron, trying to attract his attention, but he was bitten by several aggressive little wolves instead...

"Boss, I don't think he will give up so easily..."

Shanying waved his hands in annoyance and said, "I haven't even arranged a place to sleep yet, how can I have time to work for them?"

As Shanying saw Michael turning towards him, he stood up decisively and walked towards the stairs in the house, saying, "Just say I'm not feeling well. I have no objection if they want little Ruby to help. If they are willing to pay, you and Quetta can also go and help with the search.

That sled dog of yours is great too...

Baran and the other animals in the camp must not be moved!"

Old Joe was probably waiting for Shanying to say this. He smiled and said, "I see, boss. Michael said the state government offered a good price for search and rescue. Being a guide for a week can earn you 3000 dollars. It's a good deal no matter how you look at it!"

Shanying, who had already stepped onto the stairs, stopped and looked at Old Joe's wrinkled face. He hesitated and said, "I don't mind you making money, but you have to be careful.

If you said that the person who crashed the plane was a wealthy man and his family offered a bounty, I would be willing to believe it, but when did the Alaska government become so generous?

And when has the National Guard ever done a rescue mission?"

Shanying thought about it and was still a little worried. He looked at Lao Qiao and said, "If you and Quetta want to go, wear 'Hello' and 'Katie'. You all have controllers, and you should be familiar with them after such a long time."

Old Joe listened and said with satisfaction: “Michael and Scott are Reddick’s nephews. They have solved many problems for us when they were state police in Marshall. It is inappropriate to completely ignore them.

That should satisfy them!"

Only then did Mountain Eagle realize that Old Joe really regarded the Brown Bear Camp as his home, and might even consider it as the last stop of his life.

Otherwise, given the character of this old hunter, he wouldn't bother with the state police...

Only if you really care about a place, you will involuntarily consider issues from the perspective of this place and group.

Once you have a stance and something worth cherishing, if you want to protect it, you cannot avoid the ways of the world.

Shanying gave Lao Qiao a thumbs up, indicating that he understood his painstaking efforts...

Then he called Wynn and asked him to find a few women from the tribe to help clean the house. Then he went upstairs and found a bathroom with a jacuzzi. While filling the bathtub with water, he controlled Wynn's son Jesse with a radio and asked him to prepare the ingredients for dinner...

It takes quite a while to fill the huge jacuzzi with water. Shanying slowly relaxed while waiting...

When the bathtub was full, the moment Shanying lay down in, the warm water wrapped around his whole body, making him sigh comfortably, and then he soon fell into a deep sleep.

Shanying did not turn on the bathtub's heating system, and as time went on, the water temperature began to slowly drop.

The sleeping Mountain Eagle seemed to have no feeling. When the hot water temperature of more than 30 degrees dropped to about 10 degrees, his breathing became slightly faster and his heartbeat began to speed up.

Ever since his health condition began, his heart has been like a special engine, usually idling at 40 to 55 beats per minute. But once he does strenuous exercise, his heart rate will quickly rise to 100 to 120 beats per minute...

The speed of around 120 beats per minute is not the limit of the Mountain Eagle. It's just that the extremely strong heart only needs to maintain this efficiency, which is enough to meet the needs of the Mountain Eagle at its current physical limit.

This also means that his physical functions still have a lot of room for improvement.

The eagle lying in the cold water bathtub, his heart rate rose to about 70, and then his whole body quickly adapted to the water temperature, and at the same time his mind entered a very strange state...

His brain entered a state of deep sleep, but he could still vaguely sense the situation around him.

It seemed that if there was any danger, he could instantly jump up and fight back.

This state makes the mountain eagle feel very safe and comfortable at the same time!

Ever since his body muscles were no longer troubled by the pain of torn muscles, Shanying has never tried to soak in cold water again.

This unexpected attempt allowed the Mountain Eagle to find a completely new way to recover.

Shanying certainly didn't understand the specific logic, but he could clearly feel that the fatigue in his body and brain was rapidly subsiding. The lactic acid accumulated in the body was quickly broken down, and the brain began to accumulate energy rapidly when it entered a deep sleep state.

Just as Shanying was immersed in this new discovery, a violent knock on the door pulled him out of his immersion...

The awakened Shanying opened his eyes, and then heard Jesse yelling outside... "Shan, I'm ready, it's your turn to cook, otherwise we will be too late for dinner..."

Shanying scooped up the cold water from the bathtub and splashed it on his face. Then he looked at the bathroom door that was being knocked loudly and said loudly, "I heard you. Get out of here. I'll be right down."

Jesse outside was not afraid of the eagle at all. He shouted excitedly: "Hurry up, I have prepared the beef and potatoes..."

"Okay, okay..."

Shanying stood up from the bathtub helplessly, used his changed shirt to dry his body, and then changed into a new set of clothes.

The lower body is windproof paratrooper pants, and the upper body is a T-shirt and a soft shell windbreaker.

The moment he pushed the door open, Jesse ran to the stairs like a frightened mouse.

The boy laughed and made faces at the mountain eagle, and shouted loudly: "Hurry up, hurry up, I have boasted about your cooking skills to many friends, you have to show some spirit, you are the cooking master of Alaska."

Shanying was amused by Jesse's words. He pretended to chase after him for a few steps and kicked him in the air, then cursed and laughed, "I'm a wealthy man, but not just anyone can eat what I cook.

Don’t cause me any trouble in the future, or I’ll beat you up…”

Jesse jumped to the corner of the stairs with a playful smile and said, "Sir, I just heard that Faith and his friends will come here to spend the winter. I think I would be a good fishing teacher and snow guide.

As long as you give me a shotgun, I can guarantee the safety of Faith and the others..."

Shanying was stunned for a few seconds before he realized that "Fez" was the English name that Luna and her friends gave to their son Yue Yi.

The full name is 'Fester', but it became 'Fez'!
Seeing Jesse's hopeful look, Shanying thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, as long as Wynn agrees, I'll give you a real shotgun...
.
How about a .300 caliber Remington so you can try to hunt bear."

Jesse nodded excitedly and said, "No problem, Wynn will definitely agree. I'm a man now, I can go hunting by myself."

"A real man doesn't chase after others and beg for food..."

Shanying shook his head and laughed as he walked downstairs...

Seeing that several Indian women had cleaned the first floor, he expressed his gratitude and then walked out to the terrace...

On the huge terrace of nearly 60 square meters, two wood-burning stoves, an extra-large stainless steel barrel with a diameter of 120 cm and a height of cm, and an extra-large wok have been set up.

Looking at several bathtub-sized basins filled with beef, potatoes, and onions, Shanying glanced at the time and the indigenous children watching nearby, then he simply rolled up his sleeves and started to work!

The big chunks of beef had already been blanched, so I asked Jesse to add some firewood to the wood stove and oil to the large wok...

Use an engineer shovel as a spatula to stir-fry the beef, then add spices and onions and continue stir-frying, then pour in light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce and the like and stir-fry randomly. After boiling, transfer them to the stainless steel barrel next to it.

The same process was repeated three times until the bucket was half full.

Shanying added water to the bucket, then covered it with a lid and sealed the edge of the lid with a towel. He then asked Jesse, who had been learning from him, to clean the wok. He then added water again and brought it to a boil, put a large steamer on it, covered it with gauze, and put the soaked rice on it to steam.

Shanying didn't feel bored at all when he was working, because the aboriginal children around him were very supportive. They would shout "wow" when the fire came out of the wok, and "woo" when the aroma of beef appeared...

It seemed that every movement of the mountain eagle would cause them to become agitated.

This situation is a huge encouragement for any worker or performer.

Just when Shanying finished his dinner and sat on a chair to take a rest, Old Joe came over with Officer Michael and a few strange men and women...

Shanying frowned and looked at Officer Michael's sneer. He spread his hands to Old Joe and said, "What's wrong?"

Old Joe reached out and patted the young and handsome Michael on the shoulder, then walked over to sit next to Mountain Eagle and said, “Two hours ago, Quetta set off with the National Guard boat as a guide.

But they obviously didn't explain things to us clearly...

Michael just told me there are people from the CDC on board..."

Shanying frowned and thought for a while before he realized what CDC was. He looked at Michael with some concern and said, "What happened?
If there was danger and you didn’t tell me in advance, if anything went wrong in Quetta, I would…”

Michael is the nephew of Anchorage Sheriff Reddick. Over the past few months, he has figured out how to get along with the brown bear camp.

Facing Shanying's questioning, Michael glanced at the men and women around him, then walked directly to Shanying's side and whispered, "These people are from Merck in the United States and GlaxoSmithKline in the United Kingdom...

They told me that the people who crashed the plane stole very important research materials and vaccines from the National Microbiology Laboratory in Winnipeg, Canada."

Shanying squinted his eyes and looked at these people, and said in a deep voice: "What vaccine?"

Michael glanced back and said in a low voice, “Ebola vaccine!”

When Shanying heard this, he took a breath of cold air...
