The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 573 The Dust Settles (Part 1)

Indeed, Jiang Hui was sent back to the temporary camp and received excellent treatment.

When Zongting carried her back, she was already delirious and barely breathing. If it weren't for her constantly rising and falling chest, people would probably have thought she was a poor soul who had tragically died in the disaster.

But if he's dead, why is this officer in such a hurry? Could it be that some important person has been injured?
The camp was filled with rescued survivors, adults and children, men and women. While there were a few decent-looking people, dressed neatly with only slight disarray, the vast majority looked disheveled. Many medical personnel in white gowns were also moving among them, treating them.

The accident happened suddenly, and the rescue came suddenly; there was absolutely no preparation.

While most of the island on the west side was destroyed, many scattered star beasts still roamed the city. Since it was unsafe outside, the survivors could not remain there. Therefore, they were temporarily housed in various temporary outposts, awaiting the restoration of order in the city.

Of course, those who were seriously injured after being rescued will receive priority treatment and be moved to key camps for treatment.

Jiang Hui and Huan Xian were both seriously injured, and the fourth-level students didn't have time to go to the more distant key camp. Zong Ting had no choice but to take the two to the nearest place first, and then call on the professional healing team from the starship to treat them.

The students from Class Two were also here. They had narrowly escaped death from a pile of sand and gravel that almost crushed their backs and from an A-class star beast that could have easily taken their lives... Every time they thought they were about to die, that person would appear and save them from danger.

But now it was the other party whose fate was unknown. After the initial euphoria of surviving the ordeal, as everyone calmed down, a growing sense of unease crept into their hearts. Everyone wanted to know what had become of the person who had saved them.

Time passed slowly, and the garrison was safe. Countless well-trained soldiers guarded the area closely, and no one or anything that could harm them broke in. However, they became increasingly afraid, afraid of hearing bad news.

Finally, a commotion came from outside the camp, and a group of people hurried in, startling all the survivors in the camp. They looked in the direction of the sound like frightened birds, fearing that they might encounter another accident that would take their lives.

They breathed a sigh of relief and sat down again when they saw that it was a soldier.

Some curious onlookers glanced at the group that had suddenly burst in. The leading officer was of high rank, carrying one person in his arms, followed by a sergeant carrying another, then two smaller children, and finally the rest of the troops. The group was odd, but also easily explained; they had probably rescued several more survivors.

The soldiers who came in dispersed immediately and found their respective teams to assist with the affairs of the camp, except for a few who went with Zongting to the main camp to help.

As for Jaidi and another female student named Hinton, they were the ones who led the way and were not injured. Zongting had told them to move around on their own before he came in.

They quickly found their classmates at the camp. Everyone came up to them, wanting to ask about Jiang Hui's situation.

Some students had already vaguely seen the person Zongting was holding in his arms and had a bad feeling.

Perhaps due to pent-up emotions, the female student lost control and kept crying, gasping for breath. Her companions helped her to the side to comfort her and stopped interrogating her.

Jaidi was undoubtedly the most suitable person to know the situation, but he himself was not very clear about it, only knowing that Jiang Hui was seriously injured.

"Was that Jiang who was just carried away? Is she injured? Is she badly hurt?" "How is she? And what about that star beast? Did the army kill it?"

"Get lost! What are you asking? I just want to know how Jiang Hui is doing! Give me a straight answer!!"

"Why did Jiang's friend also come back unconscious? Did a battle break out over there...?"

Amidst the anxious questions from his classmates, Jaidi grew increasingly silent. He was nothing like the sharp-tongued person he used to be; it was as if he had lost the ability to speak.

This only made everyone more uneasy, because it made them think of bad things. Man, who was close to Jiang Hui, was even eager to rush over and grab the silent Jia Yidi to interrogate her. Jia Yidi was usually one of the weaker students in the class and never caused trouble, but now she was the one who took the lead.

Finally, under the anxious and questioning gazes of everyone, Jaidi simply said softly, "To be alive... that's already a good thing."

After saying that, he ignored the crowd who wanted to ask more questions, but instead held a brand new spatial button in his hand. He gently ran his thumb over it before sitting down to the side, as if he wanted to silently process the previous danger.

--------------

The conditions at the temporary camp weren't great, but basic first-aid resources were available. The starship's medical team would take time to arrive, but they would bring better medical supplies, ensuring that Jiang Hui and Huan Xian would receive proper treatment.

Zong Ting placed the thin girl on the emergency table. Without waiting for him to explain the situation, the surrounding therapists rushed over and began to examine the injured girl.

Although they weren't military healers, they were still professional medical personnel, a locally organized team of healers. In just a few weeks, they had treated countless injured survivors like this, and this one was no exception.

Huan Xian was on the other side. His condition was more complicated and required very careful treatment; ordinary therapists were not allowed to treat him without understanding the situation.

Huan Xian was a very important figure for the entire army, and even for the entire empire, and must be treated with the utmost seriousness. They had to use the best resources at their disposal to treat him and prevent any lasting damage.

This is also why Zongting mobilized an entire medical team from the starship without hesitation.

Although Jiang Hui had made some contributions in this accident, she was still just an ordinary student. At most, she could only request a few military doctors to treat her, not mobilize an entire military medical team like this. The one who truly needed this team was Huan Xian, and if the other party required treatment, nearby medical resources should be prioritized for deployment.

Jiang Hui benefited from her friend's connections. Of course, this kind of benefit was probably not what either of them wanted.

After confirming that Jiang Hui could receive relatively good treatment for the time being, Zong Ting then withdrew to guard Huan Xian. Huan Xian had no healers by his side, but he was surrounded by a circle of solemn-looking soldiers, who forbade anyone to approach.
