Chapter 19 (2/2)

“I will kill them all.” Zhou Bai clenched his fists, remembering the rivers of blood in the base. Then he looked at the auxiliary system in his mind, thinking to himself, “Mara…let me lie around a few more years, and then I’ll annihilate you.”

The bearded man rolled his eyes, not taking Zhou Bai’s words to heart at all. He looked at the scenery outside, and said, “We’re here, get ready to step off.”

After Zhou Bai got off the car, he found that the “flying car” he was sitting on was a bronze vehicle. The bronze horse pulling the vehicle stomped, and the entire car rose one meter off the ground and hovered into the distance.

‘What kind of black technology is this?’ Zhou Bai watched this scene in shock. ‘A magnetic suspension wagon?’ Looking at the wagon before him, he didn’t know whether it was advanced or backward.

Elsa was carried down on a stretcher from the other wagon. Her entire body was covered in golden fur. Many rectangular charms covered the outside of her fur as if binding her like a layer of chains.

“Elsa!”

Seeing Zhou Bai was about to run up, the bearded man stopped him and said, “Rest assured, we’ll try our best to save her. If you run up now, you’ll only impede them from doing their job. Once she’s well, I’ll take you to see her.”

Zhou Bai repressed his agitation and nodded, following the bearded man’s arrangement.

Zhou Bai followed the bearded man into a base. He saw rows of white bungalows with white walls. Everything looked very minimalistic.

What followed was a series of examinations, inquiry, vaccination, and treatment.

When an elder injected the rune vaccine into Zhou Bai’s forehead with his primordial spirit power, Zhou Bai immediately felt a fine, smooth power enter his mind. It quickly multiplied and replicated until it finally became countless runes, forming chains that enveloped his cognitive sea.

Christina was deep in thought as she looked at this rune vaccine. She said, “They are indeed protective runes. They should be able to protect you from being infected by polluted Spark in the outside world.”

The elder who injected the vaccine into Zhou Bai looked at him and said, “Remember, vaccines aren’t invincible. The longer you stay outside, the more it depletes the power of the runes, and the higher your chances of infection. Usually, in at most seven days, you must return to the safe zone to rest, and let the rune vaccine rest.”

Zhou Bai nodded. Then he was pushed out to receive treatment.

If it were in the modern society of the past, his injuries would probably take months to heal.

But in this world where you can practice and have supernatural powers such as sorcery, runes, and formations, Zhou Bai’s injuries were stabilized after only taking a few elixirs. He only needed to rest for a week or two before he can fully recover.

After repeatedly confirming Zhou Bai was okay, he was assigned a room and got his clothes back.

The entire examination-vaccine-treatment procedure was very quick and simple. There were a few unnecessary procedures. Zhou Bai found that this seemed to be a characteristic of this society: everything is as fast, simple, and efficient as possible. There’s no unnecessary waste of either time or material resources.

Zhou Bai thought to himself, ‘Is it the long period of war that brought about this style of putting efficiency first?’

‘But such a massive human force, did Professor Zhuang not know of their existence? Why did he keep calling us the last humans?’
