Don't Starve, my pickaxe can be upgraded

Chapter 93: Domain? (Happy New Year's Eve)

"He's not dead yet, I can save him..." Hong Ming shouted in horror.

"Wait!" Liu Hen shouted hurriedly.

Chang Xin subconsciously retracted her ability, and the silver-white thermobaric bomb immediately returned to normal, turning into a scarlet red, leaving only the powerful burst of the thermobaric bomb itself.

"boom--"

Even so, Hong Ming was blown away. The high temperature melted the sticky silk cocoon wrapped around him and caused severe burns all over his body.

"Alive...alive?"

Hong Ming had an expression of having survived a disaster.

Accustomed to being superior, he never imagined that one day he would face such a life-and-death crisis.

Even when Green Cloud City was breached, it was never this dangerous.

That time he ran fast, and with a large number of war slaves and city residents following him, he did not encounter those monsters at all.

"Can you really save Tai Youwei?" Liu Hen asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, of course, absolutely..."

Hong Ming quickly said, "I can transfer the vitality of plants. As long as he's not completely dead, I can revive him!"

Not far away, Zhang Mianmian, who had just struggled to his feet, spoke up. "There's a rumor circulating among the higher-ups in Lvxia City. The Lord of Lvxia City is a very powerful doctor. As far as I know, he often has strange guests seeking treatment, and those strange guests probably include demons."

Liu Hen immediately raised his eyebrows: "Miracle doctor?"

"My subordinates back then were exaggerating when they called me a miracle doctor. I can't treat difficult and complicated illnesses, but I can prolong the life of any injury by transferring plant life force."

Although begging for mercy was humiliating, Hong Ming didn't care about dignity in order to survive. "If it costs a little, it's not difficult to help others regenerate their severed limbs. Those modified humans are my work. Otherwise, how do you think they can still survive after having most of their bodies removed?"

"Let's save Tai Youwei first."

Liu Hen immediately had Tai Youwei's mutilated body, which appeared to be completely dead, brought over: "Whether you can survive depends on your performance. By the way, you won't hold a grudge, right?"

"……how come?"

Even if he could, he definitely wouldn't. Hong Ming gritted his teeth and said, "I've experienced your methods. I'm not good at fighting. I don't want to die, and I won't actively seek death."

"Let's save Tai Youwei first." Liu Hen did not make a conclusion immediately.

Hong Ming could see that although Chang Xin was the leader of this emerging force on the surface, Liu Hen was the real boss.

This was completely different from what he had known before. As far as he knew, Chang Xin was a very decisive and ruthless leader who never went back on his word and was the real leader of the Campfire Camp.

However, what was happening before his eyes... Chang Xin said nothing and had a learned expression on her face, which made him realize that the real person in charge was Liu Hen.

At this time, someone had already brought Tai Youwei's body over.

Although he himself was covered in wounds and one of his arms was chopped off, he still struggled to use his abilities to summon plant seeds buried deep in the earth to take root and sprout.

"You'd better not play tricks." Liu Hen, who had seen the other party's methods, quickly retreated a distance.

The Wu brothers and sisters who had been following silently all the time quickly stood in front of Liu Hen.

Chang Xin also waved her hand quickly, and the modified people behind her rushed up quickly.

"Protect Lord Liu Hen!"

The group of modified humans quickly protected Liu Hen behind them and looked at the Lord of Green Cloud City, their former master, with vigilance.

However, since the lord of Green Cloud City fled alone three years ago and their direct master died in battle, they have had nothing to do with Green Cloud City.

Not to mention that they now have new masters and new opportunities, and even the former master has been subdued by the new master.

Of course, some of them were a little confused. They only realized now that the enemy was actually their former master.

For some reason, this group of people felt a little excited. The once high and mighty Lord of Green Cloud City had actually become their prisoner.

This experience is so novel and fulfilling.

"I'm already in this state. I won't continue to seek death."

Hong Ming was very dissatisfied with Liu Hen's reaction, but he didn't dare to waste time because Tai Youwei's vitality was getting weaker and weaker.

He quickly transferred the vitality of the newly grown plant seedlings into Tai Youwei's remaining body to maintain his life.

As for himself, it was not a big problem. As a person with superpowers, he had very strong vitality and would not die in a short time.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Liu Hen quietly changed his warm headgear into the earth suit in the back, and used the earth suit to sense the biological force fields of Hong Ming and Tai Youwei.

Although Hong Ming's biological force field has been weakened a lot, it is still stronger than that of an ordinary person.

As for Tai Youwei... he was originally a cyborg and had no bio-force field, but the magical thing was that after Hong Ming's treatment, the disappeared bio-force field seemed to be reconstructed.

It was almost visible to the naked eye that Tai Youwei's flesh and blood were wriggling, and his disappeared body was slowly growing out.

'This ability...' He was secretly surprised.

"His ability is very useful." Chang Xin said in a low voice.

There are many injured people in the campfire camp now. If Hong Ming helps, those injured people will recover quickly.

Liu Hen nodded slightly and said nothing.

Finally, after more than ten minutes, Tai Youwei's biofield was completely stabilized. Although he did not wake up, at least his heartbeat recovered and he was breathing again.

Hong Ming coughed up a mouthful of blood and looked at Liu Hen at the back of the crowd: "His injuries have stabilized. If all goes well, I can have him back to full health in a few days."

Liu Hen pondered for a moment, pushed through the crowd and walked to the front, saying, "I'm very afraid of death. Give me a reason why you won't betray me."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, took out the bonfire and set it aside, lighting it at the same time. With a "boom", the flames shot up more than a meter high, dispelling the darkness, bringing warmth, and isolating the cold wind.

Not only that, with the appearance of this bonfire, the visibility of many corners in the distance that could not be directly illuminated by the fire has actually increased significantly.

"This is...the realm?!"

Hong Ming's pupils shrank when he saw this scene: "How is this possible?!"

He was shocked, and any trace of hatred in his heart suddenly disappeared at this moment.

"What field?" Liu Hen was stunned.

Hong Ming wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his only remaining arm and looked at Liu Hen with complicated eyes: "If you had told me earlier that you had this magical field, I would definitely choose to follow you without hesitation."

"Oh?"

Liu Hen was surprised and asked curiously, "So what exactly is this 'field' you're talking about?"

"In faraway places, some people regard those with special abilities as gods."

Hong Ming said with a complicated look in his eyes, "There are indeed some people with special abilities, whose powers are comparable to those of gods, and who possess a domain similar to that of gods. Wherever they are, all evil retreats, and the power they radiate is the law. As far as I know, there was once such a person. He implanted a branch of the Extreme Yang into his body. Wherever he was, it became the Pure Land, and the area covered by his power was his domain."

Liu Hen roughly understood what the other party meant by "domain".

"This pile of fire...is it also your ability?" Hong Ming asked.

"Yes." Liu Hen nodded.

This is just one of the items made by his golden finger, so it is naturally considered his ability.

"I'm done."

Hong Ming said: "I am willing to truly follow you and work for you."

Compared with this magical ability to improve the environment, his ability to promote plant growth is simply a joke.

"Don't rush to say such things. Whether you can survive depends on them. I personally don't need you."

Liu Hen pointed at Chang Xin and the others and said, "You decide. If you need him, keep him. If you don't need him, kill him."

Hong Ming: “…”

Chang Xin wanted to say something but stopped herself. However, she soon realized that this might be Liu Hen's way of intimidating Hong Ming, so she refrained from speaking.

Not far away, Zhang Mianmian was moved to tears, because Liu Hen just glanced at her, obviously giving her the right to speak.

Although she hated the person behind the scenes who destroyed her superpowers, she also understood that Hong Ming's abilities were too important for a force.

So she said, "Although I wish I could skin him alive, it is indeed more valuable to keep him alive than to kill him."

"You hate me? Wait, you're Zhang Mianmian?"

Hong Ming finally recognized Zhang Mianmian: "The one inside you... uh..."

He suddenly shut up.

"It's you!" Zhang Mianmian looked at Hong Ming with gritted teeth.

Liu Hen also looked at Hong Ming meaningfully, but because there were so many people around and everyone was talking, he did not mention the matter of the Mithril Egg here.

"Sir, his abilities are indeed very useful. We are very happy that you have given us the opportunity to speak, but I think it is better to keep him."

"Yes, sir. After all, he is a mutant. It would be a shame to kill him."

The other modified humans also spoke up. Although some of them wished that the master who had abandoned them would die sooner, they had to admit that this man's abilities were indeed very useful.

Because of this battle, many of them were injured. If they had the help of their former master, they would not be in danger of being abandoned.

In this world where medicine is scarce, the importance of a person with special abilities who can heal injuries is self-evident.

"Since they all said so."

Liu Hen nodded and said, "You can continue to live for the time being, but I will let Zhang Mianmian supervise you."

He looked at Zhang Mianmian and said, "You are responsible for supervising him. Later, I will give you a set of equipment to increase your strength. If he shows any suspicious behavior, kill him directly."

Hong Ming: “…”

"Thank you, sir. I will definitely keep a good eye on him!" Zhang Mianmian was overjoyed.

"You take care of the things outside, I'm going back first."

Liu Hen put away the bonfire, said something to Chang Xin, and turned away with the Wu brothers and sisters.

"You guys, you you you, and you..."

Chang Xin pointed at a few uninjured cyborgs and said, "You escort Master Liu Hen back."

"Yes, leader!"

The cyborgs quickly followed.

"The rest of you, follow me to clean up the battlefield and retrieve the injured."

Chang Xin took others to clean up the battlefield.

Although they won a great victory in this battle, they did not suffer no losses.
