Late at night, a closed door was opened, and a figure flashed in nimbly.
With hesitation, the figure slowly walked to the bed in the room, and stretched out his hands to the person sleeping on the bed.
Joanna gently touched the sleeping Iger's face, kissed his face affectionately under the light coming from the window, and then quietly exited the room.
Egger is exhausted today.
When attacking the Blood Plague Heart, Joanna also heard the dying struggle of the Blood Plague Heart after it was severely damaged.
Joanna felt firsthand the mental impact that caused Egger to have a sudden mental breakdown that day.
This indescribable voice suddenly appeared directly in her mind. If Joanna had not already known it and prepared her mind well, she might have been shocked.
However, after receiving this mental shock, the others just fainted and passed away, while Egger suffered from a protracted nosebleed.
Sudden nosebleeds are a form of physiological protection. When a person's intracranial blood pressure is too high, the capillaries in the nasal cavity can easily rupture, and the nasal cavity becomes a decompression port.
There are often scenes of vomiting blood in film and television works. The blood does not gush out from the stomach, but pours into the mouth from the nose.
Iger's nosebleed a lot. Nicholas dragged him to the back seat and stopped the bleeding, but the nosebleed could not be stopped at all.
As the nosebleed continued, Egger felt a sense of relaxation and comfort. The headache that had tortured him for several days disappeared without a trace, and then he fell into a coma.
Different from Iger's comfortable feeling, his actual condition was not good, or very bad. In order to prevent the nosebleed from pouring into Iger's lungs, Nicholas had to let him lie on his side on the seat.
After the pickup truck escaped from Puduo City, Joanna applied the brakes and stopped the pickup truck.
Joanna climbed into the car and dug out the first-aid kit, and then used the first-aid hemostasis method she learned from Dr. Heidemi on Egg, which was to forcefully insert hemostatic cotton.
After one operation, Joanna stopped Iger's nosebleed. At this time, the hemostatic cotton was almost inserted from Iger's nostrils to his mouth.
After Egger was out of danger, the pickup truck got back on the road. It was already sunset.
In the evening, all members of the gospel team waited anxiously at the entrance of the Morgan Building for the return of Team Egg.
For the first time in his life, Bill saw the infected collectively disconnect. Tens of thousands of infected who were running wildly suddenly stopped. Then they stood there, looking at each other blankly like a group of fools.
Egger did it, and the infected people in the red zone of Puduo County were reclassified to 1.0 status.
After Team Bill returned to Quick Creek Town, they brought the good news to everyone, and then Father Locke decided to organize everyone to welcome Team Egg at the door of the Morgan Building.
We waited from afternoon until dark. With everyone on tenterhooks, we finally waited until all members of Team Egg returned.
Wonder boy Egg once again created a miracle.
In the evening express, Lily gave a brief briefing on the news that the joint field operations team had eliminated the blood plague heart in Puduo City.
Since the launch of gospel radio, it has brought countless shocks to listeners, but all the previous shocks combined are not as good as this one.
Gospel Broadcasting has issued infected person warnings many times, from the initial Bulk 1.0 to Screamer 2.0, and then to Blood Plague Heart 3.0. Every time the infected person warning is upgraded, a large number of survivors will die.
When everyone was trapped in the gradually tightening murder noose and unable to break free, the gospel broadcast said that their field team had actually beaten the infected into the original version 1.0.
What is 1.0? It is a novice period full of warmth. There is such a good thing as reversal in the world.
That night, all the teams were rummaging around like crazy to find a map and see where Jixi Town was.
Lily has broadcasted for so many times that she actually forgot to introduce the location of Jixi Town.
Of course, this is also a very normal situation. When people introduce themselves, they usually just say that they are from xx town (county) in xx state (province). Who would talk about the geographical location?
…
Iger slept for a long time. When he woke up, he didn't feel as energetic as usual. Instead, he felt extremely tired.
After checking his attribute bar, Egg found that his physical constitution, which dropped to 4 yesterday, had dropped by 1 point again, to only 3 points.
Full of physical and mental exhaustion, Egg turned over and fell into a drowsy sleep.
After Iger woke up for the third time, he finally had enough sleep. Iger habitually glanced at his status bar. All the negative states were merged into one "weakness", and all basic attributes were greatly reduced.
Iger has been through a lot these past few days. From mental to physical, he has been subjected to various strong stimulations for several rounds, and no one can stand it.
After gathering some energy, and mainly due to the tendency of hunger, the weak Egger was forced to get up and look for food.
"It's better to put me in the ward. At least there will be someone to take care of me there." Iger mumbled while getting up and looking for shoes to put on.
Iger had no idea what he missed last night.
Of course, in his current state, even if he had the intention, he would most likely be powerless.
After Iger left the dormitory building, he slowly moved to the second floor of the Morgan Building. A group of cooks were busy. Iger showed his shameless character and picked up the tableware. He walked to the big pot and picked up a big spoon.
Take a ladle of broth from the pot that is almost entirely filled with chunks of meat.
Catherine saw Egger fishing for meat, and she quickly walked over. Egger glanced at his bowl, smiled, and was about to take out half of the meat in the bowl.
As a result, Catherine picked up the spice box from the side, added some salt and pepper to his bowl, and then said to Egger: "Maybe it's not too cooked yet, you eat it first, the next bowl will be better."
Catherine and Iger see each other almost every day. After all, she works in the kitchen and they never see each other, but the two usually don't have much interaction.
Catherine is very grateful to Iger for taking care of Thomas. Without Iger, Thomas would never be alive today. Although she is not good at words, Catherine is not a person who does not know how to repay kindness.
The meat does not need to be overcooked, as it will not be chewy if it is overcooked. Egger is a carnivorous man, and he is the representative of carnivorous animals among humans.
"This meat... seems too hard."
After biting a piece of meat into his mouth, Egger remembered that everyone's definition of "cooked" seemed to be very different. Generally speaking, "cooked" for Westerners, converted to Central Plains, is about 5 points.
Catherine said the meat was not very cooked, so if you calculate it, it would be about 3 points.
This is wild game meat provided by Fran, medium rare can be said to be very challenging.
Or should I pour it back first and cook it longer before eating?
impossible.
Egg's body told him that it desperately needed meat.
This is a battle, and the teeth work hard to tear apart the last stubbornness of the prey.
After chewing a large piece for a long time, Iger just chewed it until it was a little loose, and the meat was not bitten at all. Iger forcefully swallowed it, and then, a feeling of fullness and comfort rose from his stomach.
After eating a large bowl of meat, Egg was eighty percent full, and ate a piece of hot bread with the broth. The hot bread was really delicious, soft and doughy, and it didn't look like it could be used as a weapon after being cold.
.
Egg, who was very full, sat in the restaurant and ate slowly while waiting for dinner time.
It’s not that Iger wanted to have another bowl after dinner, he was waiting for a meeting after dinner.
Finally, the after-dinner meeting was held as scheduled, and Egger briefly gave a battle report and summary.
"In general, bait tactics are very effective against infected people, but if there are screamers, what kind of adjustments need to be made to the bait tactics needs to be analyzed in detail.
Now that the infected have lost their ability to gather, it is a good time to eliminate them.
I suggest that we launch a one-month intensive annihilation operation and form a joint field team with a total number of more than 10 teams. We use the hard-won window period to proactively attack, eliminate as many infected people as possible, and gradually expand the safe zone.
scope."
When Egger said this, everyone immediately started talking about it. A joint field team of 10 teams means that each team will send 5 teams and 20 people.
The number of field personnel of the gospel team has always been kept very low, including this raid on the Heart of Blood Plague. Such a big operation only took two teams to complete.
A field team of 20 people is too many.
You know, after the establishment of the reclamation regiment, the original combatants of the gospel team were reduced by half, and now so many people have to be squeezed out, which means that many people who have never been on the field need to go out.
This was not a big problem before, but now it is a more troublesome problem.
The gospel team is strong and strong. If you say that the members don't dare to fight, it's definitely not true. As long as there are infected people or enemies attacking, everyone can really put their guns on the wall.
But I have to go out on field duty, that's it.
This is the high-wall dependence syndrome that often occurred in the Central Plains dynasties in the past.
Another troublesome thing about Jixi Town is that it currently has a large internal maintenance fee. As the stall gets bigger, maintenance fees will naturally arise, so the internal security team must not cut it.
It is a very fatal thing to recruit 20 more security guards on top of the 8-man security force.
But is Egger’s proposal too much?
Definitely not too much.
Everyone missed an excellent opportunity last time and cannot miss it again.
Fortunately, Iger doesn't need to worry about this. Although the reclamation team only has more than 30 people, it is no problem to directly recruit 20 people.
Egger is a little tired. His weak state has not disappeared and he needs to rest.
This time Iger plans to sit in Ross Town by himself, focus on construction and development, and let Bill and Erica do the killing.
After a short dinner party, while it was still dark, Egger led all members of the field team of the reclamation regiment to return victoriously.
After this battle, the field team of the reclamation regiment has become Egger's iron plate.
A group of people who were driven away by the infected fought a perfect victory under the command of Egger. This can no longer be expressed in terms of momentum. Probably, morale has reached the ceiling.
Even though the fight went smoothly and easily this time, the fact that the fight was so smooth and easy was not simple at all.
The often-defeated army no longer has the mentality of "I can do whatever I want". What they long for most is to have a wise coach descend from the sky and then put their destiny in his hands.
Anyone who has survived countless defeats knows that this is the method with the highest survival rate.
Iger needs to reorganize the reclamation team tonight, and tomorrow morning a field team of 20 people will be sent to Jixi Town. Iger is an impatient person, and he will be very uncomfortable if the plan he has made is not implemented.
The Reclamation Corps has been reorganized several times since its establishment, and it is about to undergo another major reorganization. This is really not what Iger likes to do, and plans often fail to keep up with changes.
Just after returning to Ross Town, Egg heard Erica's report.
"Lal was injured, fractured." Erica said calmly: "I beat him."
