Chapter 171: Traitor of the Academy



After pausing for a moment, a silver scalpel slowly stretched out from his right hand until it was an inch longer than his middle finger.

The scalpel was bent slightly, like a forelimb of a mantis. Looking closely, there were four silver threads around the scalpel, floating in the air like tentacles.

Looking at the young man’s right hand, the old man curled up on the stretcher looked terrified. He tremblingly wanted to ask what the man was, but he did not dare to make a sound.

"Don’t be afraid, I will help you deal with the wound." After comforting the old man, Yin Fang concentrated all his energy on the operation.

An anesthetic injection was quickly followed by disinfection.

The five fingers of his right hand moved up and down nimbly and skillfully, manipulating the scalpel and silver threads hanging under the palm of his hand.

It was like he was manipulating a marionette!

The scalpel accurately avoided the nerves and blood vessels in the muscle tissue, carefully cut the necrotic part, and skillfully used silver thread to stitch up the wound, leaving only the fine thread end like spider silk.

The whole process was as smooth as running water!

Yin Fang held his breath and remained highly focused. Fine sweat oozed out of his forehead, and even the frequency of his breathing was carefully controlled.

Under his precise control and operation, the excision and bandaging of the necrotic tissue were carried out almost simultaneously, and the blood loss during the entire operation was minimal.

The operation lasted an hour.

After cutting off all the necrotic tissue, Yin Fang finally breathed a sigh of relief, raised his left hand, and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his arm.

Then, he took out a small tube of spray from his pocket and carefully sprayed it on his right hand several times before slowly retracting the outstretched scalpel and silver thread into the bionic prosthesis.

At almost the same time, an unfamiliar voice came from behind him.

"What an amazing piece of technology… Is this a bionic prosthesis for medical use?"

Yin Fang was startled and turned around abruptly, only to see a man wearing an exoskeleton standing at the door, watching him with interest.

He was so focused during the operation earlier that he didn’t even notice that someone had arrived.

Yin Fang was nervous and hid his right hand behind him, even though he quickly realized that it was no different from exposing the fact that he had something to hide.

Putting down his clasped arms, Chu Guang said in a casual tone with a friendly expression on his face, "Don’t be nervous, I was just asking… Are you a doctor?"

"..."

Yin Fang hesitated to answer.

Seeing his expression, Chu Guang knew that this guy was probably hiding a lot of things, and he was probably racking his brains to make up stories to fool him.

Why bother?

It’s not like I will kill you.

Not bothering to listen to the flawed stories that this guy was going to make up, Chu Guang looked at him and said bluntly, "I am the administrator of Shelter 404, and the ruler here. If you need help or want to improve your living conditions, you can go to Jiu Li or Luca, and they will bring you to me.” Ã

"I don’t mind offering a job opportunity to capable people, but only if the person is being honest with me."

After speaking, Chu Guang turned around and walked out the door without waiting for a reply.

Looking at the closed door, Yin Fang breathed a sigh of relief, and his tensed shoulders also relaxed.

At this time, a weak voice came from the stretcher behind him.

"Thank you, young man."

The old man had already woken up, but he didn’t dare to interrupt the ruler.

Yin Fang glanced back at the old man, forced a smile on his face, and said in a soft tone, "You’re welcome, are you feeling better now?"

"Much better..." The old man nodded. Realizing what happened, he said weakly in embarrassment, "I’ve caused you trouble."

"It’s okay." Yin Fang shook his head.

Human life is important, and those people helped him a lot.

He wouldn’t have gotten so far if he left alone, and there was no way he could have avoided the pursuit of the bounty hunters in the first place.

The old man sat up on the stretcher and wanted to get up, but his legs still hurt, so he gave up after trying several times. The next moment, a man came in from outside the shack. Seeing the old man’s appearance, he quickly stepped forward to support him.

"Dad, are you feeling better?"

The old man smiled and nodded. "I feel much better... Thanks to this young man, if he encounters any trouble in the future, you have to help him."

Sun Cheng turned to look at Yin Fang, and said sincerely, "Brother, thank you! My name is Sun Cheng. You saved my father’s life, so if you need anything from me in the future, say the word and it will be done!"

Yin Fang shook his head and did not take his words to his heart.

If only it is that simple.

His troubles were not something that just any wastelander could solve.

Watching the father and the son leave the shack, Yin Fang sat on a chair beside him, looking at the ceiling and sighing.

"Sigh.

"Give me a break..."

...

"There is a doctor in the refugee camp, so you don’t need to worry about the plague. He seems to be a warm-hearted person. You can just leave it to him.

"Also, ask Jiu Li to keep his eyes on him, but don’t bother him too much. Don’t take the initiative to ask him questions, and don’t make him feel that he is being monitored. If he shows any suspicious behavior, ask him to report to me immediately." After leaving the shack, Chu Guang found Luca and explained the matter to him.

"Okay sir, leave this to me!" Luca nodded earnestly, keeping the matter firmly in his heart.

Shelter 404 has not fully established a trusting relationship with those refugees. As such, it was natural to have a sense of vigilance. In any case, fostering a better relationship shouldn’t be rushed.

Chu Guang was not in a hurry to pry open the secret of that doctor, nor was he in a hurry to recruit him.

With the harsh winter… He wasn’t afraid that someone would be able to run away!

After all, it would feel a bit forced if he needed to obtain the information by questioning the man. So it was better to wait for him to think clearly and confess.

After leaving the camp, Chu Guang was planning to inspect the labor reform of the prisoners of war.

He didn’t expect to hear a burst of gunshots north of the camp… Based on the sound, it was about 1 kilometer away.

It seemed that the battle was quite intense; Chu Guang even heard the explosion of the handmade grenade Mosquito made.

Not panicking at all, Chu Guang updated a mission through the VM and sent it to the devices of players within the specified range of the map.

[Mission: All players within 1 kilometer of the coordinate marked on the map need to immediately go to the target area to provide support.]

[Requirement: Capture at least one person alive.]

[Reward: 10 silver coins, 10 contribution points, 50 regional prestige.]

Listening to the sound of gunshots, it was estimated that there were only 4 or 5 guns firing at once. There were 6 of them at the very most.

After staying in the wasteland for a long time, guessing the number of people based on the sound of gunfire could be said to be the basic survival skills. It was not realistic to guess accurately, but there was no problem in guessing a little more.

According to the display on the VM map, there were at least 30 players in the area where the conflict occurred, and most of them were veteran players.

Chu Guang was not worried after giving them the mission.

...

Unlike Chu Guang, Eugene was feeling like shit at the moment.

Originally, it was a very simple mission, and if everything went well, it could be done in three months.

He didn’t think that his stupid teammates would cause such a huge problem.

If he had known that something like that would happen, he would have definitely done it alone.

Anyway… Complaining then seemed pointless.

Less than ten minutes after the gunshots sounded, he and his teammates were surrounded by at least thirty people. Dense gunshots came from all directions, and they couldn’t raise their heads at all.

Eugene saw with his own eyes that the mercenary who fired the first shot was riddled with holes along with his dog. As for the other three, they were all killed one by one during the resistance.

Seeing that there was no hope of breaking through the encirclement, he immediately dropped the weapon in his hand and surrendered without any hesitation.

Those men that surrounded him roughly bound his hands, threw him onto a truck, and then dragged him back to the camp behind the concrete wall. After he was escorted to a spacious room, he was pressed to the ground.

There was a man wearing a blue exoskeleton sitting in the room. He was eyeing him up and down with scrutiny.

"Are you a marauder?" the man asked.

Eugene didn’t answer right away, his mind was turning fast, thinking about how to escape.

However, the man wearing the exoskeleton didn’t seem to be very patient. Seeing that he didn’t speak, he waved his hand impatiently. "Since he doesn’t like to talk, then take him away and get rid of him."

The equipment on this man didn’t look very valuable anyway, and it was estimated that he was not someone with a powerful background.

Wrench standing next to Chu Guang immediately stepped forward without any delay, grabbed the prisoner’s collar, and dragged him outside.

Eugene panicked and screamed in fright, "I’m not a marauder. My name is Eugene, I’m a mercenary! Sir, I mean no harm."

"Mean no harm?" Signaling Wrench to stop, Chu Guang looked at him with interest and said, "You mean, the fight earlier on were misfires?"

Shelter 404’s initial contact guidelines stipulated that players could not take the initiative to attack NPCs in neutral areas, but if neutral NPCs fired first, they were allowed to fight back.

VMs were not only just a vital monitor, it also had the function of action recording. Although there was no video, but through clues such as gunshots, audio recordings, and more. It was easy to judge who made the first move.

Chu Guang was curious how the dude was going to try to smoke him..

Being stared at by Chu Guang’s gaze, Eugene felt terror spreading in his heart and said quickly, "That was a misunderstanding. It was not me who fired... Those people and I are just partners who were commissioned to do something!"

"A commission?" Staring at him with scrutiny, Chu Guang continued to ask, "What commission?"

Not daring to conceal anything, Eugene quickly confessed. "It’s a commission from the Academy."

Chu Guang was stunned for a moment when he heard the unexpected title, but he didn’t show any emotions. He stared at Eugene and continued to interrogate him. "Continue."

Eugene swallowed and continued speaking quickly. "About three months ago… I got a request from the Academy that they wanted us to help track down a renegade prospector. We followed the clues provided by our employer all the way to the River Valley Province. If it wasn’t for an accident, we would have caught him last month. But by bad luck, we ran into the Army who was routed, and let that guy escape into a group of refugees."

"Does the traitor you are talking about have a bionic body?" Chu Guang asked thoughtfully.

Eugene’s eyes lit up and nodded quickly. "That’s right! Our employer asked us to take him back to the Wandering Swamp, or at least take his arm back. If you are willing to hand him over to me, we can split the reward fifty-fifty, no, sixty-forty, you take sixty, and I take forty!"

Not bad, sixty for me.

Holding back his laughter, Chu Guang looked at him and said, "How much bounty did the people at the Academy promise?"

Eugene thought that Chu Guang was tempted by his proposal, so he quickly continued. "5,000CR! We originally had six people, but now… There’s only both of us…”

Chu Guang looked at him in shock. "CR? Why does the Academy pay you with Enterprise’s currency?"

"That’s not really how it works… Actually, mercenaries like us only accept Enterprise’s CR, or Army’s Dinar." Eugene explained helplessly, "You should know that the currency varies from place to place, and I’ve even seen people trading with bullet shells and bottle caps."

Although Enterprise’s banknotes were heavily inflated far from the East Coast… Where a rifle costing 300CR on the East Coast would be sold for 600 or even 800CR in River Valley Province… It was still better than small currencies that only circulate in regional areas.

Chu Guang stroked his chin and fell deep into thought..

Hmmm… Only 5,000CR.

So, he shouldn’t be an important fugitive.

If it was a reward of 500,000CR, Chu Guang may have to consider the diplomatic risk of keeping the man. But for the tiny bit of reward, he was most likely not someone important.

What’s the big deal? Why does he want to hide such a trivial matter from me?

That man is not honest.

Chu Guang’s heart moved slightly, and he looked at Wrench who was waiting beside him.

"You go to the refugee camp, find a person named Yin Fang, and bring him to me."

"Yes, sir." Wrench nodded and immediately walked out the door.

Soon Wrench brought the man Chu Guang wanted to see.

Seeing Eugene in the room, Yin Fang’s expression changed instantly. He turned around and wanted to leave, but as soon as he turned around, he was stopped by Wrench standing at the door.

Seeing Yin Fang, a joyful expression appeared on Eugene’s face. He hurriedly shouted loudly, "Sir, that’s him!"

"Shut up."

Chu Guang signaled Eugene to stay silent, then looked at the young man who had fear written in his eyes. "Don’t you think you need to explain something to me?"

Yin Fang lowered his head with a bitter expression on his face. "Sorry, I didn’t mean to hide my identity from you..."

Chu Guang looked at him and asked, "Are you from the Academy?"

Yin Fang nodded.

But soon, his eyes dimmed, and he shook his head.

"I was, six months ago, but I am no longer part of the Academy."
