"Yan Kai, quickly bring me the No. 3 containment box. Do you still want to do this? You're so slow. No wonder you got kicked out."
A senior recycler shouted loudly in the recycling transfer department in the upper city.
Yan Kai agreed and quickly found what the other party wanted, but when he was delivering it, he accidentally tripped and the storage box fell to the ground and broke.
"Damn it, can you be more stupid? You can't even hold a box properly. What use do I have for a useless person like you!" The recycler walked over angrily and kicked Yan Kai when he passed by him. "Get out of the way. I'll get it myself."
"Really? The recycling team has sent a lot of materials. I'm afraid it will take several days to deal with this amount. You are a piece of crap and you are in the way. If you are stupid, don't make others suffer."
Amid the recyclers' complaints, Yan Kai stood up with a gloomy face and silently returned to the assembly line he was in charge of.
The recycling transfer department has a lot of work to do, especially since they have just destroyed a super-powerful monster, and the recycling team has been sending monster materials to them continuously.
The transfer department is responsible for classifying, storing and sending these materials to different departments.
Originally, Yan Kai didn't have to do these jobs. But after returning from Baoshi Town last time, he was kicked out by Kong Zhang.
Yan Kai went to look for other mentors to take him in, but unfortunately, either their research teams were full or they simply rejected him.
After wandering for a long time, he finally found an opportunity to work in the transit department and barely made ends meet.
He once came to the transfer department as Kong Zhang's assistant. At that time, not only the recyclers but even the managers of the recycling pipes had to be polite when they saw him.
It's not like now, where people treat you like a dog. If they are happy, they will give you a few bites of food, but if they are unhappy, they will just kick you a few times.
Yan Kai didn't dare to complain and had to suppress his resentment in his heart.
After finally waiting until the end of the shift, Yan Kai was about to leave when he was caught by the recycler again.
"Where are you going?"
"It's time for me to get off work."
"Get off work? Are you kidding? Don't you see we have too much work to do?"
"But... "
"But what? Do you still want to work? Pack all the materials on the assembly line into boxes. You can leave when you finish the work!"
Yan Kai looked in the direction of the assembly line and saw mountains of materials, so much that it made him despair.
"I... "
The recycler glared at him and said, "Yan Kai, if you don't want to do this, get out of here and don't waste my time here."
Yan Kai said helplessly: "I'll do it, isn't it okay for me to do it?"
He sighed and returned to the assembly line, only to hear the recycler laughing at him behind his back.
"Look at him, he's just a research assistant. I heard he used to work with Professor Kong Zhang. I think he must be pissed off by him. He's so clumsy that he can't even do the smallest things. It'll be strange if he's not kicked out."
Yan Kai snorted, his eyes filled with anger.
It was not until the next morning that Yan Kai left the transfer station. The sun rising from the sea made it difficult for him to open his eyes.
He just wants to go home and have some sleep now, and doesn't want to do anything else.
After returning home, Yan Kai opened the door, walked into his room like a zombie, then threw himself on the bed and closed his eyes.
Suddenly, Yan Kai jumped up and looked towards the corner.
In the corner, someone was leaning against the wall, with his arms folded, and two dark eyes were staring at him.
Yan Kai was startled and asked in a trembling voice: "Who are you?"
"Are you Yan Kai? The one who told Lao Ba that there is a Reverse World Demon Fungus that needs to be dealt with?"
Yan Kai calmed down a little bit and said: "You are the one that Lao Ba said
Buyers of ? "
The man walked over and appeared in the light. He had black hair, black eyes, and even his clothes were black. It was Liu Xing who escaped from the Iron Wall Prison!
Liu Xing nodded: "Where is the goods?"
Yan Kai stepped back a little: "Where is the thing I want?"
Liu Xing pulled off a few buttons from his clothes, pressed them with two fingers, and the buttons broke, with blue crystals falling out from them.
These crystals emit a silver glow, and the dreamy light illuminates this small room.
Yan Kai's eyes were illuminated by the brilliance of the crystals. He picked up the crystals excitedly, his voice trembling: "Ectoplasm crystals! Star crystals, they are really star crystals!"
Liu Xing nodded and said, "There are five star crystals in here. If you take them to the black market, you can at least exchange them for tens of thousands of contribution points, which is enough for you to squander for a while."
Yan Kai had been a student of Kong Zhang, so he naturally knew that these star crystals were probably leftovers. The star essence they contained was not pure enough, and their size was too small. If they were taken to the black market, they could only be sold for 20,000 to 30,000 contribution points at most.
Moreover, these things cannot be used as sublimation media, but even so, there is still no shortage of sales.
Twenty or thirty thousand contribution points were a sky-high price for him. After all, he only earned a hundred or so contribution points in a month working in the recycling transfer department.
After carefully putting away the star crystals, Yan Kai pushed open the bed, pried up a piece of the floor under the bed, and took out a dirty storage box from it.
When it was opened, there were several specimen boxes inside. Inside the boxes were some fungi emitting a blue glow.
Liu Xing looked at it, closed the box and took it in his hand.
He looked at Yan Kai again: "Have you ever thought about who will get these things? Maybe one day, they will be used against Skyfort."
Yan Kai was startled for a moment, then said with a ferocious expression: "What does that have to do with me? I just want to live a good life. I don't care what happens to Skyfort in the future!"
Liu Xing didn't say anything else, just nodded and left quietly.
He walked out of Yan Kai's house and someone came out from the corner. It was Gu Ge.
"Got it?" Gu Ge looked at the storage box in his hand.
Liu Xing handed the box to him: "If I had known you would come in by yourself, I wouldn't have had to make such a special trip."
Gu Ge took the box and said, "I have my own things to do, but I'm a little surprised that you didn't get lost."
Liu Xing said expressionlessly: "Who said I wasn't lost? I wandered around all night before I found this place."
Gug smiled and threw the box into a backpack. "Let's go. Let's get out of here before the Skyforge has time to pay attention to us."
The two men left the city disguised as gold diggers.
In a blink of an eye, a few days passed.
This morning, Tianyang came to the medical center. Yanbing had already started rehabilitation training, but according to Luo Shan, the situation was not optimistic.
At present, Yanbing has lost consciousness below the waist and has been confirmed to be paralyzed, although Fortress has auxiliary equipment developed for paralyzed people.
But obviously, the cost of a set of auxiliary equipment is not something Yanbing can afford.
Even though the Night Walkers provide subsidies to the wounded, given that the Flame Soldiers' military rank is not high, the subsidies they can receive are very limited.
Moreover, if the Night Walker's subsidy is used on auxiliary equipment, the Flame Soldier's life will be in trouble.
Even now, Yanbing's daily expenses at the medical center are shared and paid by the Raven Squad.
With a heavy heart, Tianyang walked into the training ground and saw Yanbing walking hard with the help of a support frame.
He was sweating profusely and walked unsteadily like a baby who had just learned to walk.
His fiancée, Xiaoju, followed him all the way, fearing that
He fell down.
Tianyang stood there for a while, and when Yanbing stopped to rest, he walked over.
“How are you feeling today?”
Tianyang shouted from afar.
Yan Bing looked up and saw it was him. A smile appeared on his face: "Not bad, although I still don't feel anything."
Tianyang sat down next to him: "Recently, the captain discussed with us and decided to pool money to buy you a set of auxiliary equipment."
Yan Bing was startled, then shook his head: "I appreciate everyone's kindness, but this gift is too valuable, I cannot accept it."
Tianyang patted his shoulder and said, "I knew you would say that, but listen to me, with assistive devices, you can at least take care of yourself."
“There’s nothing wrong with being stubborn, but sometimes, you have to learn to compromise.”
In fact, Han Shu did not say that. In any case, Yan Bing was just a non-commissioned officer, and the squad paying for his medical expenses was already a special case.
Purchasing auxiliary equipment for Yanbing was entirely Tianyang's own plan.
Just because he was worried that Yanbing would not accept it, Tianyang said it was everyone's decision.
Unexpectedly, Yan Bing laughed: "Don't get me wrong, Lieutenant. I'm not stubborn, but someone came to see me yesterday."
"who?"
"Someone from the Yun family."
Yan Bing asked back: "Second Lieutenant, have you heard of 'Yun Yang Zhi Gong'?"
Tianyang shook his head blankly.
Yan Bing laughed: "Actually, I heard about it for the first time yesterday. Yunyang Intelligent Engineering is an arsenal under the Yun family, but they are researching intelligent combat weapons."
"Yesterday, a representative from Yunyang Intelligent Engineering came to me and said that they were recently researching a project to develop an auxiliary chip that can strengthen the human neural network."
"They knew I had just become paralyzed and wanted to invite me to participate in their research. If successful, I might be able to walk without the aid of any device."
"Moreover, they promised that I would get auxiliary chips and related consumables for free, and they also promised lifelong maintenance and regular upgrades."
Tian Yang said happily: "Really? That's great. Congratulations, Yan Bing. In this way, you will hopefully recover your health."
Yan Bing nodded and said, "I was also quite surprised. I didn't expect to receive such an invitation. I have already promised them that they will take me to the laboratory after I am discharged from the hospital in a few days."
"You probably won't see me for some time."
Tian Yang was really happy for him: "It doesn't matter, as long as you can walk by yourself next time we meet."
"definitely."
After chatting with Yan Bing for a while, Tian Yang said goodbye. He had planned to go back to the team dormitory, but he found some medical staff walking by in the corridor with nervous expressions.
Just then, Xun came out of an elevator, and Tianyang called her and asked, "What happened?"
Xun nodded and said, "An internal affairs officer committed suicide by jumping off a building at Tianqing College. Although he did not die on the spot, he is now seriously injured. I called his name and he needs to go over to help."
Tianyang said quickly: "Then go quickly."
Xun Wuwu left, but unexpectedly, just as she left, Tianyang saw Lao Xu again.
"Old Xu!" Tian Yang waved his hand and walked over quickly. "Why are you here? Are you feeling unwell?"
Old Xu smiled bitterly: "No, you may not know yet, Liu Jinglin jumped down from the Tianqing College teaching building this morning and was seriously injured."
Tianyang was shocked: "What? Teacher Liu? But Xun just said it was an internal affairs official."
Old Xu said, "It's Liu Jinglin. He is an official of the Fortress's Internal Affairs Department and also a lecturer at the academy. How come you don't know?"
