Chapter 505: Chapter 506: Canât Sit and Wait for Death Chapter 505: Chapter 506: Canât Sit and Wait for Death Thinking about it made her head start to ache faintly, and finally, she heard a âdingââ sound.
It was the sound of the Apocalyptic System activating.
She didnât know whether it would work or not, but she really pinned her hopes on the Little Mermaid.
In her heart, she kept thinking âcrack the password,â âopen the door,â repeating these thoughts over and over in her mind.
She had transmitted her thoughts to the processor of the little secretary in the space as effectively as possible.
After a brief standoff had passed, the Alien Humanoids prepared to attack again.
Su Shu frowned, transmitted a strong intention once more, and then heard a âclick.â
The door opened!
âQuick, get in!â
Everyone hurriedly streamed in, with Tang Zelin covering Zhang Dongke, Wang Meng, and others, while fighting a retreat.
The adversaries seemed to realize their actions and madly rushed over, no longer caring if they were hit.
In the blink of an eye, Su Shu stood by the door and also fired her gun to buy some time for Tang Zelin and the others to retreat.
In the last moment before the door was sealed, they finally evaded the oncoming dive of a male Alien Humanoid.
The moment the door closed, the automatic door lock was activated.
Hundreds of Alien Humanoids loomed outside the transparent walls of the laboratory office.
Initially, everyone was still on guard, but later, they found that the transparent walls of the laboratory were made of an unknown, exceptionally sturdy material. The Alien Humanoids outside repeatedly rammed their bodies and heads into it to no avail.
Only then did everyone breathe a small sigh of relief.
âIt seems,â said Tang Zelin as he holstered his gun, âthat the people who worked on research experiments here also considered this kind of eventuality and designed such an isolated lab area.â
Tang Zelin ordered in a steady voice, âTake the time to treat the wounds now; the rest of you, rest.â
The laboratory was well soundproofed; once the door was closed, the noise outside dropped significantly.
Su Shu temporarily took on the role of a âmedicalâ worker, pulling out the external medicines and anti-inflammatory drugs she carried, and began to dress wounds, starting with Tang Zelin.
Tang Zelin looked down at his wife who was dressing his wounds, feeling a warm current in his heart like spring.
âBeing with me, it seems like youâve also faced misfortune, if itâs not one thing, itâs another, making our life anything but peaceful.â
Su Shu looked up at him, her eyes, clear and calm, then lowered her head again.
âWhere is there peace in the world now?â
Tang Zelin remained silent; Su Shu tied the final knot and gently laid down his arm, âDonât do this next time.â
The words were on the tip of her tongue, saying half of them: donât do this, but what should be done?
As a soldier, sometimes he had no choice and didnât need to make one. From the day he put on the military uniform, a heavy responsibility had been laid on his shoulders.
He slightly curved the corners of his lips, smiling lightly, âOkay, donât worry.â
It was their understanding of each other that led to mutual tolerance,
It was their ability to accommodate each other that deepened understanding, making this connection formed in the Apocalypse all the more precious.
In the lab, there was no fabric; they soaked some discarded papers in water and pasted them on the transparent walls.
That way, they blocked the sight of the Alien Humanoids outside, and the tense expressions on the childrenâs faces inside relaxed somewhat.
They couldnât stay here forever after a brief rest in this hiding spot.
Su Shu leaned against the laboratory bench, her forehead resting on her arm.
She couldnât just sit there and wait for death; she needed to think of another way.
Remembering how she had used the Apocalyptic System in the space to open the coded door earlier, her eyes suddenly lit up.
