Chapter 84: Maicheng is finished

"Disasters will not defeat us, demons will not, blood will not, all of these can only make us more united. Tears are not cowardice, turn sadness into anger. This is God's world, and we are God's people."

After turning off the TV that was playing the President's speech, Edgar walked to the window. From his angle, except for the faint black smoke whose source could not be seen, Maicheng was still peaceful.

The number of casualties was certainly heartbreaking, but compared to the Battle of New York, this was a victory won by the forces they led.

that's enough.

Money is important to them, but sometimes, it is not that important.

"How's Jamie?" Edgar asked suddenly.

Watson, who was standing nearby, reported: "Ten minutes ago, he was still in a coma, but his brain waves were unusually active. It seemed that something unusual was happening in his mind."

"Although I don't quite agree with his desperate behavior, but," Edgar looked at the sparsely populated streets, which looked like zombies and had lost their minds, "at this moment, we really need a hero."

"A true hero."

"Hopefully, he can afford the price of being a true hero."

Watson pressed the headset, as if he had received some important message.

"Director, it has been confirmed that an unknown extraordinary person did appear in that area. He discovered the demons in advance and summarized some of his findings on the social network. He then rescued people in that area and dealt with a special demon that escaped from the hospital. In the end, he was rescued by a local man named Bloody Fist Kurt and a group of people."

Edgar nodded. "Find him and provide medical assistance first. Don't rush to win him over. Find some people and subtly tell him about our difficulties. Then test his attitude towards us."

"I see." Watson hesitated, "If the military finds him before us."

"Then give up."

Edgar would not come into conflict with the military for the sake of a superhuman being, especially in the current situation where no one knows where the devil will appear.

The military might not be the best at dealing with demons, but their bottom line is definitely higher than most so-called extraordinary people.

It is not worthwhile to offend the military for the sake of a supernatural being whose background is still unknown.

barracks.

Commander Michael watched the footage captured by the drone in silence.

This was not his first time watching it, but every time he watched it, he could find some interesting little details.

Fingers tapped on the table, making a tapping sound.

"Commander, he's awake." The report came over the intercom.

"Okay, I'll go over now." Michael turned off the video, put on his hat, and walked out of the temporary command post.

On the field medical vehicle.

Carlos was bandaged like a mummy.

The slits of his eyes were staring blankly at the light on the ceiling.

Dana sat next to him, nodding her head, drowsy.

A loud shout came from outside the car door, which scared Dana awake and she looked at the door nervously.

A few seconds later, the car door opened and a middle-aged man in camouflage clothes walked in.

He nodded to Dana, then walked to Carlos, took off his hat, and saluted him. "I am Michael Smith, General and Commander of the Central Division. You have won a chance for many people to survive in Mai City. This is amazing. I thank you on behalf of the people who survived."

Carlos raised his hand slightly and then lowered it again. He couldn't speak now, and he couldn't even move too much.

"Don't worry, the doctor has given you a comprehensive examination. Although the devil's blood has burned your vocal cords, you can recover given your physical condition." Michael knew that he couldn't speak or respond at the moment, so he picked some topics that he thought he would be interested in.

"We rushed here as quickly as possible before the demonic disaster broke out, but it takes time to gather together, and there are still many survivors in the city, so we can't use bombing and other means, and can only advance on the ground. Fortunately, you attracted the attention of many demons, allowing us to avoid many sacrifices. Now a day has passed, and the demons in the city have basically been cleared out. Please rest assured that Mai City is now safe."

Dana glanced at Carlos and carefully said to the big shot in front of her: "When can we go home? Old Kurt, the leader of a group of people, is he okay?"

"Mr. Carlos is seriously injured and needs careful care. Don't underestimate this medical vehicle. It is first-class in emergency treatment. We will transfer Mr. Carlos to a better hospital later, Miss Dana? Please believe us, we have no bad intentions. Without Mr. Carlos's permission, we will not conduct any research on his body or abilities."

"As for Kurt, although many of them were illegally carrying guns, considering that they also protected many people during this disaster, we will not make things difficult for them. We sent them back early this morning and gave them a thank-you fee. Please don't worry."

Michael explained in a friendly manner.

Dana knew that when a man spoke to you so kindly, there must be a deeper plan.

Just like fishing.

Dana has seen too many men like this. Although most of them are bad boys and certainly not as powerful as the one in front of her, for some reason they all behave in this regard.

However, the current situation is not that bad.

She was just afraid that her brother, who had completely turned over a new leaf for unknown reasons, would be deceived by the other party using concepts of justice and love and be forced to work for them.

According to the plot of the movie, as his sister, she would be held hostage, and then Carlos would be betrayed during an operation and die with a heart full of resentment.

You can either buy one and get one free and go along, or shoulder the mission of revenge.

Just thinking about it makes me feel miserable and tired.

Michael didn't know that Dana had already imagined a movie or TV series in her mind. He really didn't have any bad intentions now. Compared to Carlos, he wanted to know whether Carlos represented a new supernatural force.

Do I have the opportunity to cooperate with them and become a bridge?

As for what will happen next, he couldn't say for sure.

After all, they have too little experience in facing the extraordinary.

Since there are too many unknowns, all related measures and actions will have to be taken more cautiously.

"Just rest and recover first. The transfer will probably be tonight. Don't worry, Maicheng is safe. When you recover and come back, you will see a brand new city."

After comforting Carlos a few more words, Michael stopped disturbing him.

Too much is as bad as too little, and the doctor will act as his eyes and ears, letting him know when the right time should come.

Dana and Carlos watched Michael leave.

"Carlos, the past few days were the happiest time of my life," Dana hinted.

Carlos nodded imperceptibly.
