My head felt as if it was filled with lead, and amidst the heaviness there was an intense pain echoing in my mind, as if a sharp knife was repeatedly cutting my nerves.
Joey sat on the stretcher. He wanted to cover his head to relieve the pain, but he was wearing a straitjacket and could hardly move.
The effect of the potion was still there, and his consciousness was groggy, as if he would fall asleep in the next second. But at the same time, with the injection of Florand's potion, his body was reviving, and his heart was beating violently, faster and faster, like an overloaded machine, and perhaps it would explode in the next second.
This is the side effect of the drug, which has a huge burden on the human body, and this is after degradation. At the beginning, the rangers faced even worse side effects than this.
"Wake up!"
Someone was fanning Joey's face hard, and his vision gradually became clear. It was Kestrel.
"What's wrong?"
"I don't have time to explain this nonsense to you. Anyway, get up quickly!"
As Hong Jian spoke, he untied his straitjacket and tied a Geiger counter to his chest, starting it with a ticking sound.
"You still have Corrosion on you... Never mind, there's no need to worry about it. Now each of us is contaminated by Corrosion."
"what happened?"
Joey is in a very bad condition now. He has to endure the physical burden in his coma, but thanks to the medicine, his consciousness is gradually becoming clearer.
He felt a little hot all over, which was a normal reaction. The medicine was awakening his body's desire to survive. This feeling was really bad, as if he would die suddenly in the next second.
"A lot of things... But you just need to know that we need you, otherwise we wouldn't have arrested you."
Red Falcon carried Joey up. If they delayed any further, the situation would only get worse. The survivors had to mobilize all their strength and fight their way to the lift zone under the siege of demons. As long as they could seize the Original Sin Armor parked there, there would be a glimmer of hope for survival in the current desperate situation.
"Although according to the rules and regulations, you should be suspended for recuperation, but when fighting demons, there will always be some unexpected events, right? Just treat it as overtime."
Red Falcon carried Joey forward. Joey's body needed some time to recover consciousness, but there was not so much time for him to recover now.
"But you have to work harder. After all, only if you survive can you get overtime pay. Otherwise, if you die, you die."
I don’t know if he was comforting himself or if he was just an unreliable person, Hong Jian continued.
"Ah, no, I absolutely cannot die. This damn place is the Black Mountain Hospital, and not far from here is the cemetery!"
Finally, Joey was thrown to the ground. A group of people gathered here. It seemed that they were the only fighting force at present. Among them were Eve and Ovis. The two children looked as if they had just been scolded. They had blank expressions and gloomy looks.
"Wait here for a while. You are not conscious yet. You just need to listen to my instructions. Do you understand?" said Hong Xun.
"You?" Joey covered his head with one hand and half-knelt on the ground with the other hand. "I'll give you my life? Are you serious, Red Falcon?"
