Chapter 1464 Moving Out Of Town
"We only have one medical kit around. There is no way we can save the kid without saving it for the commander." Yinn said as she covered Jin and the Archduke"s son, Marvin, as stated by the tactical System from the knockback that the explosives had created.
"There is no need for that. I do not even know how to use the kit anyways." Jin said as he a.n.a.lysed the kid with the Tactical System. Now that he finally had a.s.surance that the System would be backing him up, he was bolder with his actions.
"I might not have the minions at my disposal but that does not mean I cannot replicate what they can do….to a certain degree," Jin said as he tried to remember how Milk, his priestess bellator, taught him the most basic of healing skills. As mentioned by her, Milk"s healing skills were akin to turning the clock back.
Instead of forcing mana into the cells to regenerate faster, which was the basis of healing skills, Milk"s unique healing skills tampered with the time itself. Thus, all Jin had to do was to concentrate on reversing Marvin"s condition so that it did not deteriorate so badly and allow him to seek proper medical attention.
"Now he is making me jealous to know how the other worlds really work." Click replied as she could feel the residual wave of energy that Jin was eluding. In the meantime, Diaz had been ordered by Yinn to bring the two kids away to Tellie who had some food supplies for them to recuperate.
"I have no idea how he is doing it but if he is able to stop his wounds from festering then I guess it would be ideal." Yinn continued to monitor Marvin"s vitals and the fever was residing.
"He will have the fever again. I can only control his condition momentarily so where is the nearest town we can reach?." Jin asked through the tactical system and the rest all laughed.
"Aren"t we in a village?" Diaz shouted back rather than using the Tactical System to talk.
"But, it"s devoid of people." Jin felt the urge of slapping Diaz on her head for saying the obvious. "I am talking about the nearest available town where we can get medical aid for these kids."
"If his condition has stabilised, we can search for a pharmacy within this backwater place and pick up some medications. This way, he should not be in any danger within the next 24 hours or so. We are no medics but we should be able to take care of him." Yinn replied and Tellie informed everyone that there was a sighting of a clinic signboard at the marketplace which they could search.
"Then I guess we have to bring these kids to the next available town as well?" Diaz asked as she saw the two children start crying quietly in relief that they were rescued.
"Yes. And also, try to ask them what happened to Artbridge once they are ready to talk." Jin said as he could finally stop his Maqi transfer when the Tactical System determined that it was more than sufficient.
While it was obvious that the Tactical System was not working as brilliantly as his System, it was actually already working and pus.h.i.+ng more options out with the System remotely fiddling with it. Other Tactical Systems do not have such robust options that Jin had and since the User was the only one who had all these options and not his Grey Bear Squad Members, they had no idea that there was a separate ent.i.ty that was helping him out.
"Alright, Go. Search the premises for any painkillers or any available medical kits to treat them." Jin ordered and Diaz took the chance to fly off since she did not want to handle the kids, leaving them to Tellie. Click volunteered to explore as well since she would like to see if there are any available vehicles around that they could use to move out from the area especially when they need to reach the other town as soon as possible.
"Are you not afraid that the Rebel Mechanoids would pop out from the underground area?" Tellie asked and Jin pointed at the entrance. Tellie squinted her eyes a little and saw that Click had already placed a few trap wires that would ignite a hand grenade when they pushed out.
"I see… I did not expect that from Tellie."
"I gave her the idea, she improvised from it and knew what I was talking about," Jin said as he finally could sit down and rest while Yinn stayed on guard for her commander. "Besides, I doubt they would be coming out so soon. That explosion Click prepared was rather tight and the Mechanoids would lose their commanders within an hour"s time once the smoke from the overloaded printer machine reached them."
"You are underestimating how the Rebel Mechanoids work. We all have artificial lungs with attached filters that can be used as respirators. Their commanders can survive if they proceed with mouth to mouth."
"What do you need a pair of lungs for?" Jin asked but everyone questioned whether he could hazard a guess. "I am not too sure but I am guessing to cool you ladies down? Otherwise, I give up."
"You are not off the mark." Tellie grinned as she was happy to explain the answer. "The air mixed with a little bit of coolant helps to regulate the heat dissipation within us Mechanoids."
"But it"s also an excuse to make the Mechanoids as human as possible so that the humans could "relate" with us." Yinn brought up the fallacy of human made designs.
"We found the medicine and an untouched medical kit. Heading back now." Diaz said.
"I managed to salvage a working vehicle but not everyone of us will be able to fit inside it. The rest are not in good condition to travel on rough terrain." Click reported as well.
"It"s fine. Tellie and Click will escort the kids. The rest we will take that instead." Jin pointed at a broken bicycle near the church debris, and they understood what he meant.
"LT, can"t we get a motorcycle instead?" Diaz complained and Jin told her that if she could find one, he would not mind at all. Diaz got elated and quickly shouted for Click to find one even though she was busy trying to ensure that the vehicle she procured.
"Before we go off, are you sure that you are going to leave them like this? There is a chance that they might be rescued by their comrades." Yinn questioned but Jin smiled at her.
"You did say that our mission was to scout, right?" Jin smiled a little. "Besides, I have a feeling that having them trapped inside there might be beneficial for us as well."
"What do you exactly mean? Rebels are supposed to be squashed. We should not even let them stay alive." Yinn argued that they should not even leave one around.
"You could say that it"s our insurance for something that I have a feeling about." Jin fiddled with the Tactical System ignoring Yinn"s plea to procure a more concrete plan to defeat them.
"Okay... Yes, Sir. Orders noted." Yinn said as she did a quick salute and they proceeded to find available transportation to move to the nearest town.
