With Leng Ran's help, Zhao Yuheng swayed as he stood up. Only then did Leng Ran notice his still bleeding left shoulder and immediately supported him.

"You went on a mission without me, and got bullied, didn't you?" Leng Ran frowned, took out emergency medicine from her equipment bag, and gave Zhao Yuheng some basic treatment.

Other people's fragile commanders know to hide behind when they encounter danger, so why does her good commander dare to charge forward alone when he sees danger?

Leng Ran skillfully sprayed medicine onto the wound. Zhao Yuheng was in so much pain that he was sweating profusely, but he didn't utter a sound.

“It’s an emergency, and since you can’t leave, I’ll have to go and check things out first.” Zhao Yuheng’s eyes darkened slightly. “Unfortunately, it’s a trap.”

Leng Ran: "This place is not safe to stay any longer. Let's leave first. Let's go to my house. I have a medical robot."

Although Zhao Yuheng's injury wasn't life-threatening, they still needed to find a place to remove the bullet and get proper treatment. However, going to the hospital would inevitably risk exposing their identity, so after much consideration, they decided to let Yangon handle it.

The medical robot that was bought as a precaution was never used by the owner, but Zhao Yuheng used it first.

Leng Ran's bandaging technique was extremely skilled. After applying the medicine, she quickly wrapped several layers of bandage around Zhao Yuheng's shoulder and finally tied a pretty bow.

Zhao Yuheng glanced at the bow a couple more times: "I didn't expect you to be so skilled at it."

"The more you practice, the more skilled you'll become." Leng Ran hopped on the motorcycle. "Get on, let's go."

Zhao Yuheng sat down behind Leng Ran, a sense of doubt rising in his heart.

In the interstellar era, if people are injured, they are treated by medical robots or treatment pods. The result of over-reliance on smart devices is that the vast majority of people do not have the skill of "stopping bleeding and bandaging", let alone being proficient in it.

Why is Mo Li so skilled at it? What has he been through before?

Just then, Zhao Yuheng suddenly felt something wrapped around his waist. Looking down, he saw several loops of rope binding him and Mo Li tightly together.

"Just in case you fall, here's a little safety precaution." Leng Ran activated her full mental power, precisely marking the location of the approaching enemy troops. "If you can't hold on, just say so. Hold on tight, let's go!"

With a light twist of the handlebars, the motorcycle roared to life and sped off in the blink of an eye.

On the other side, Higanbana was sitting in a civilian airship, drinking red wine and watching the screen, secretly observing the changes in the situation.

Today's game is specially prepared for that "macho man" from the Lingyun Army who killed her once.

The muscular man had been missing for over two years, and she had tried countless baits, but none of them worked. So she had no choice but to unleash something truly powerful—the "holy water" that their Lingyun Army had been investigating in the Chaotic Zone, and the only thing the muscular man had ever dealt with.

Holy water, a low-quality product made from the blood of mutated beasts, can improve a person's physical level for a certain period of time, awaken their spiritual power, and even grant them the unique skills of the beasts.

As for this "certain time period," it can be as short as an hour or as long as five years. Of course, those who are briefly favored by the gods all end up the same way—becoming patients with blood scales.

Most of the Bloodscale Patients who ingested the holy water lost their self-awareness, turned into wild beasts, and ultimately died tragically. However, a few lucky ones retained their self-awareness, such as Zou Lun, the security guard at the Longtian branch.

Thinking of this, the spider lily gritted her teeth in hatred. Little Flower No. 89 had gone to the scene specifically to bring back such a rare experimental material, but it was destroyed by the muscular man, who also killed No. 89 completely.

This is the first self-aware Bloodscale patient she's encountered on Storm Star! He might be the key to improving the "Holy Water"! She, the Other Shore Flower, is no saint; this burly man dared to provoke her on her territory, she'll make him die!

Just then, Zhuo Leng, the Nine-Star White-Robed Envoy, rushed over and knelt humbly on the ground: "Lord of the Other Shore Flower, the third squad located in the southeast corner was completely wiped out after discovering the enemy's whereabouts."

"Useless." The other shore flower crushed the wine glass in her hand, the unfinished red wine flowing down her arm and dripping onto her red dress.

"No tough guy showed up, and some random commander with no fighting ability just popped up and beat you all up like this?" The Other Shore Flower looked at Zhuo Leng kneeling on the ground with disdain. "Do you have any video recordings? Show them to me."

Zhuoleng lowered his head even further: "Yes, there are images of them before they died. I'll go find the records right away!"

The other shore flower took a new glass and poured in some red wine: "I'll give you three minutes."

Before long, Zhuo Leng placed the video footage in front of Bi An Hua and stood respectfully a few steps behind her: "Lady Bi An Hua, please take a look."

In the video footage, Zhao Yuheng, disguised, is being chased and shot in the left shoulder as he flees in panic. Just as the third squad is about to surround him, the Lion Boy descends from the sky on a motorcycle, followed by a violent explosion, and the footage cuts off.

"Hunky man, you've finally shown up." The other shore flower stood up excitedly and crushed the new cup in her hand again.

"Pass down the order: deploy mech units and air strike forces, and kill the man at all costs."

Zhuoleng bowed: "I will obey your command, Lady of the Other Shore Flower. May the light be with you."

Zhuoleng left the room, and a projection of a man appeared in front of the other shore flower.

The man wore a colorful mask with auspicious cloud patterns and a magnificent purple robe of a high priest under the full moon. He slowly turned around and confronted the spider lily, which was leaning against the sofa.

"Higanbana, are you crazy? Deploying so many armed forces, don't you think you're already exposing yourself quickly enough?"

"Sweet dream, mind your own business." The other shore flower swirled her wine glass nonchalantly. "The military has known about me for a long time, but they've never been able to do anything about me. But today, no matter the cost, I want him dead."

Mei Meng's tone was icy: "In the past two years, you have spent a lot of resources and money to find this strong man, and you have also exposed our forces on Storm Star to the military's view on a large scale. The Divine Envoy is already very dissatisfied."

"You brazenly send mechs to kill tough guys, are you trying to abandon your Stormstar base?"

The other shore flower was not to be outdone: "Hmph, Storm Star, I call the shots. As for armed forces, they are nothing but consumables to me. Even if I lose them all, it doesn't matter. I am unkillable, and as long as Hua Yulu is still the dean of the Academy of Sciences, I have plenty of ways to rebuild my own forces."

The dream has fallen silent. It seems that after being in contact with "greed and anger" for a long time, the spider lily is nearing the brink of madness.

When the divine messenger allowed her to make a pact with "greed and anger," did she foresee this day?

Or perhaps... the madness of the red spider lily is also part of the divine messenger's scheme?

Of the four high priests, the only one who could truly be brainwashed by the so-called "God of Light" and become a loyal believer was the judge, who was under mental control.

Unfortunately, the red spider lily was ultimately influenced by "greed and anger," gradually forgetting its original purpose and becoming what it is now.

Mei Meng took two steps back: "Higanbana, I warn you, the divine messenger's decision to appoint you to manage the Storm Star base does not mean it belongs to you. Power can be granted, and it can be taken away at any time. You have now completely fallen into demonic possession, Higanbana, you'd better watch yourself."

The projection of the beautiful dream slowly dissipated, while the spider lily laughed maniacally: "So what if I became a demon? At that time, I had no choice at all!"

She turned to look at the live monitoring screen: "Hunk, my armed forces are inexhaustible, while you only have one life. I want to see if you can leave here alive today."
