Mercenary’s War
Chapter 520 - 520 516 It Was All Worth It

520: Chapter 516: It Was All Worth It 520: Chapter 516: It Was All Worth It The temporary camp was set up, and Gao Yang and his group had settled in.

Although the Angel Mercenary Corps had fought two fierce battles right after the establishment, the battles did not affect them at all as the corps didn’t even leave the camp.

When the air force attacked the Angel Mercenary Corps again, Nate and his team managed to shoot down another Super Tucano aircraft; after that, the planes didn’t dare to bomb recklessly anymore.

It’s amusing how just a few dozen mercenaries could intimidate a nation’s air force to this extent.

Aside from proving the Angel Mercenary Corps was really formidable, it also highlighted how pitifully ineffective their opponents were—a small country with a weak military is just like that in combat, without any spirit.

The Angel Mercenary Corps attracted all the pressure, allowing Gao Yang and his group to comfortably recuperate.

They had been tense for more than a day at the beginning, but after two quiet days, everyone finally relaxed their tensed nerves.

This didn’t mean they lowered their guard, but rather that Gao Yang and his team were no longer in a state where they were constantly tensed up, always fearful that someone might unexpectedly show up.

After spending the second night in the temporary camp, Gao Yang crawled out of his tent and reluctantly, with a gloomy face, went to find Bruce.

Gao Yang’s left shoulder had a through-and-through wound.

It wasn’t in a particularly dangerous spot, but it was still quite troublesome to heal and required daily changes of dressing, making each dressing change a torment for Gao Yang.

During emergency aid, Bruce’s methods were simple and rough, aimed at saving time to give the wounded quick treatment.

However, when changing dressings, he was actually very attentive and gentle.

Unfortunately, after having endured a profoundly painful disinfection process as Bruce vigorously rubbed alcohol-soaked or other antiseptic-soaked gauze into the wound, Gao Yang was left with a psychological trauma from Bruce.

Seeing Bruce, Gao Yang didn’t tremble physically, but he was genuinely scared out of his wits, forcing himself to sit across from Bruce and then coughed lightly, saying, “Test Tube, it won’t hurt too much this time, right?”

Bruce smiled cunningly and said, “Don’t worry, boss, it won’t hurt.”

Gao Yang immediately pointed his intact hand at Bruce’s nose and said, “That’s what you said!

I’m telling you, if you make me hurt physically, I’ll make you hurt emotionally.

If my pain is too intense, I’ll deduct your salary, um, your bonus.”

In the medical tent where Bruce was situated, those with lighter wounds were accommodated, which meant Ivan and the rest were all there, and they could hear Gao Yang and Bruce’s conversation as well.

Hearing Gao Yang’s threat, Frey immediately shouted, “Boss, deduct Test Tube’s salary and bonus, take it all, not a single cent for him.

This jerk about killed me with pain during my dressing change, but he’s so gentle when treating Lucica.

Taking all his money still isn’t enough, you need to punish him.”

As Frey was making a racket, Sergei also raised his voice, “Exactly, exactly.

What did he say when he was changing Bat’s dressings?

‘My dear, just endure a little, it won’t hurt, it’ll be over soon.’ And what does he say to us?

‘Shut up, don’t move, you’re disturbing me while I’m changing your dressing.

No fidgeting!’ Those were his words to us, Ram, deduct his salary!”

After Sergei finished, another member of the Angel Mercenary Corps also started to make a ruckus, “Deduct his money, punish him, however you like.”

Listening to the commotion happening in the tent, Lucica’s face turned red as she said, “It’s not like that.

Of course, changing dressings will hurt, I was in pain too; I just didn’t say it.”

While everyone was jeering, Bruce cleared his throat and said, “Guys, you still have a long way to fully recover.”

After Bruce spoke indifferently, the tent instantly fell silent.

Frey also coughed twice and then whispered softly, “Just kidding, just a joke.

Test Tube, hurry and change the Boss’s dressing.”

Gao Yang of course knew that everyone was just joking.

Bruce would definitely be gentle with Lucica, since she was his girlfriend.

As for the others, of course, he wouldn’t be gentle, but this was just a difference in verbal treatment; Bruce wasn’t really going to treat anyone roughly.

After changing the dressing, Gao Yang habitually went to the tent where Ivan was staying.

Since Ivan had briefly regained consciousness for a moment and then fell back into a coma, he had not woken up since.

But this time, when Gao Yang entered Ivan’s tent, he saw Ivan’s eyes open, with Samuel and Brejinsky standing by his bed.

Seeing that Ivan had woken up, Gao Yang was first delighted and then said, “You woke up?

That’s great, when did you wake up?

Why didn’t anyone tell me?”

Samuel spoke softly, “He woke up half an hour ago.

Andy He just finished checking him, and I hadn’t gotten the chance to tell you all yet.”

Gao Yang walked to Ivan’s bedside and said joyfully, “Hey, buddy, you’re looking good.

Don’t worry, you’ll recover soon.”

Ivan looked as if it would be strange if he wasn’t struggling; his blood had been changed I don’t know how many times, and the blood flowing in his veins now wasn’t even known to be whose.

His survival was purely a miracle.

Ivan was still extremely weak, lacking the strength to even talk, let alone move.

Seeing Gao Yang, Ivan merely blinked and nodded his head almost imperceptibly before whispering in an extremely feeble voice, “Thank you.”

Gao Yang waved his hands repeatedly and laughed gently, “What’s there to thank, just focus on healing.

Don’t talk, don’t move around, we’ll chat once you’re better.

Now is not the time, buddy.”

Ivan looked barely more alive than a dead person.

Gao Yang really didn’t dare let Ivan talk any more.

At that moment, Andy He checked his watch and said sternly, “Okay, everyone out, let Ivan sleep.

He still can’t see too many people now; he needs to stay quiet.”

After waving to Ivan and cheering him on, Gao Yang and others tiptoed out of the tent.

After watching them leave, Ivan quickly closed his eyes, but unlike before, this time he fell asleep instead of lapsing into a coma.

After they left the tent, Andy He quickly followed and then said with a smile, “Guys, Ivan will survive.

There won’t be any more complications, of course, being shot to death randomly doesn’t count.

I’m talking about his injuries; there won’t be any more surprises, so we can conclusively say, Ivan will survive.”

Finally, there was dependable news about Ivan’s life and death.

Although Ivan’s situation had been improving, any accident, like a wound infection or some organ failure, could mean Ivan wouldn’t even have a chance to be saved and would die.

But now, Andy He finally dared to declare that Ivan truly would survive.

Hearing Andy He finally drawing a conclusive conclusion, Gao Yang let out a sigh of relief and said, “It was all worth it.

Everything we’ve done was truly worthwhile.” (To be continued.
