Chapter 511
“Mr. Jenkins, wake up!”
Lionel, regaining his composure, rushed over to check Elliot’s condition. Elliot had no visible injuries nor
gunshot wounds.
Hence, it could only mean…
The virus inside him had flared up again.
Trembling, Lionel reached for Elliot’s pulse at his neck. Noticing that his pulse was steady, Lionel let out
a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, Elliot was alive. He had just passed out.
Lionel placed Elliot’s arm around his shoulders, carrying him on his back while calmly directing the
evacuation.
“Logan and Lance, follow me for an immediate retreat. The rest of you will provide cover for each other.
Everyone must be safely evacuated within ten minutes. Return to Svelton and await further instructions
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwithin two days.”
“Understood.”
With the plan in place, Lionel sprinted through the forest with Elliot lying unconscious on his back.
Logan and Lance followed closely, vigilant against potential ambushes.
They swiftly exited the border area and boarded a helicopter headed straight back to Svelton.
On the aircraft, Elliot remained unconscious, his complexion turning paler, and his body grew colder as
time passed.
Lionel checked his pulse again…
It seemed that his pulse was growing weaker and his breath shallower.
“Faster! Hurry up!” Lionel roared, his eyes red, choked with emotion. “Mr. Jenkins, you can’t die! Just
hold on a bit longer. We’re almost at the lab, and Professor Y is there. You’ll be fine!”
Logan and Lance were younger, and they could not control their emotions, shedding tears as they knelt
beside Elliot. Attempting to warm his icy body, they rubbed his hands.
Three hours later, they arrived at the lab in the dead of night.
Yosef administered a dose of strengthened suppressants, and Elliot gradually regained a normal
complexion. His eyelashes trembled as he regained consciousness. As his vision cleared, Elliot
surveyed the room.
He noticed Lionel’s reddened eyes. It would seem that he had been crying.
Yosef was examining Elliot’s blood test results, and he appeared to be on the verge of tears.
Chapter 511
“What’s wrong?” Elliot propped himself up, sitting up
The response he received was the heavy silence between the two, and the room was filled with a
gloomy, sad atmosphere:
“Yosef, I can sense the state of my body at this point. You don’t need to hide anything from me.
Regardless of how bad the results are, I can take it,” Elliot said,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm
Yosef held back a sob. “I’m sorry. I’ve been useless. I haven’t found a way to treat the virus in your
body for so long ”
Trembling, he handed the test results to Elliot and continued, “You’ve used the suppressant too many
times, and your body has developed resistance toward it. From the initial seven day injections to five
days, and now, you need injections every three days. Once your body fully adapts to the suppressant’s
effects, the virus will be unstoppable.”
“Furthermore, during this time, the virus in your body has spread. Your recent fainting spell, coupled
with the decrease in physical strength you mentioned to Lionel earlier, is due to your body experiencing
a degenerative condition.”
Elliot frowned slightly, his thin lips pale. “How severe can the degeneration get?”
“In the worst–case scenario, it could lead to complete paralysis. This is just the current complication. I
don’t know if other issues will arise as the suppressant’s effectiveness against the virus gradually
diminishes.”
Yosef’s eyes were filled with sorrow. “In short… the situation is very grim.”
After these words, the room once again fell into a prolonged silence.
