Chapter 1035: Chapter 693: Face to Face (Second Update)

"Water." Mu Lin said indifferently. Quickly, someone passed a water bottle to him. Taking it, Mu Lin unscrewed the cap, threw in some unknown substances, shook it, and then poured it directly onto Er Fei’s wound.

"Disinfect." Mu Lin’s voice was cool, "If your wound is not treated properly, it will easily get infected."

"Sister-in-law, he won’t have any issues, right?" Xue Jianbing, while paying attention to protection, asked subconsciously; for Mu Lin and Jing Chen, Xue Jianbing had no other feelings now, aside from respect.

After joining Ying Sun, over the course of three years, he finally understood why those people addressed Jing Chen as Boss Jing! He was truly the No. 1 in the Military Camp! Especially when this couple joined forces, he genuinely felt that there was probably no other match for them in this world! Any previous sense of defiance had long since worn away.

Hearing his question, Mu Lin shook her head, "Don’t worry, it’s just that his wound was caused by a blast pulling in debris, so it could contain a variety of infectious agents. It just needs to be cleaned properly." Furthermore, there had been a slight delay, and although the bleeding and pain had been stopped, Mu Lin could see that it had already started to inflame. She did not want his leg to deteriorate to the point where even she couldn’t treat it.

"That’s good to hear." With Mu Lin’s assurance, everyone felt relieved, even Jing Chen subconsciously let out a sigh of relief.

Mu Lin understood that he simply did not want Er Fei to end up like the comrade he had taken her to treat before; at the time Mu Lin thought Jing Chen couldn’t bear it, but she hadn’t realized that he too had experienced such acute pain.

For a soldier, what it meant to lose a leg, there was no need for words.

The tiny but sharp pebbles were extracted, and Mu Lin disinfected the wound again, applied medication, and handed a special Pain Killer to him, which Er Fei swallowed without any hesitation.

It’s likely that even if Mu Lin had handed him poison at that moment, he would have swallowed it without second thought.

Meanwhile, seeing the arrival of Mu Lin and Jing Chen, Chi Xie became excited.

"Finally, they’ve appeared!" With a bloodthirsty smile, Chi Xie began to give orders, "Focus fire, advance fully, I will arrive shortly." Although he was eager to complete the mission and retreat immediately, how could he leave without giving his ’nemesis’ a proper greeting?

And that little kitten.

He heard she was the Poison Doctor, so it must have been her who killed one of his subordinates.

That invisible strike.

In Chi Xie’s eyes, Mu Lin’s silver needles were that invisible strike.

"You stay here and guard." After dropping those words, Chi Xie moved swiftly toward the direction of Mu Lin and Jing Chen, while the men receiving his orders launched a full-scale attack on Ying Sun’s forces again.

As for the Naval Marine Corps members witnessing all of this, they carefully assisted Ying Sun’s people in holding off the attack, yet they couldn’t help thinking, "Why do I feel like we have nothing to do here?" The direction of the assault seemed to be consistently against Ying Sun, never shifting.

Hearing that, Jing Tian quirked his lips, "Who made you guys not the main characters this time! Assist well, if you fail to hold them off, be careful I’ll have you taking a month of Politics Class when we get back."

The crowd immediately felt like spitting blood.

Politics Class! And for a month!

Boss, please spare them! Truthfully, they’d rather train twice as hard than attend Politics Class. They didn’t like listening to that stuff at all; some lessons, they preferred to learn in the heat of real combat.

And now, with Jing Tian’s command, everyone instantly became charged, their focus sharpening considerably.

Being attacked from the flank made it difficult for the enemy to concentrate solely on Ying Sun’s forces, diverting their attention.

The enemy was already short on manpower and getting distracted only led to several of them quickly being injured by Ying Sun’s people.

Even though their ammunition was of little use, unable to kill anyone, it still had some benefits.

Such as... being used like half-strength flash grenades.

At this moment, a few mercenaries, formerly confident and holding the upper hand, dared not to underestimate Ying Sun’s men anymore, yet they were itching to curse in frustration.

Underestimating soldiers, would it not be embarrassing to let you go without teaching you a lesson!

Next moment, the sound of machine-gun fire rang in everyone’s ears. They saw a person leisurely approaching from the other side, relaxed and strolling, wearing an ambiguously smile.

"Don’t shoot, I’m just here... to deliver a gift." But the reason he chose to appear here was because someone told him that this gift must be memorable and impactful to truly consider the mission complete.

Ah... this really put him in a tight spot.

Jing Chen signaled to cease fire, and as the figure made his way to the middle ground of the battlefield, the fighting momentarily paused, allowing the enemy to unconsciously breathe a sigh of relief.

"Chi Xie." Jing Chen’s figure gradually stepped out from behind a tree, eyes coldly fixed on the man who was smiling pleasantly at him... his backup, voice icy, "What brings you here!"
