Chapter 65: He Doesn't Need Special Approval At All!
For a moment, the surroundings seemed to have been pressed on mute, with only the sound of the wind whistling past one's ears.
Zhou Chu was bathed in blood, like an Asura stepping out of a blood pool, walking toward Chu Shuangshuang, who had already fainted.
At this moment, the area around Demon Cave No. 15 was deathly silent; not a single living monster could be seen, and the ground was littered with the wreckage left after the battle.
The few surviving members of Xiaolong Squad all wore expressions of astonishment, standing there woodenly as if they had been struck by a freezing spell.
That heart-stopping scene just now had happened far too swiftly, so fast that they had no time to react, and they were even completely unaware of what had actually occurred.
They had only seen that Calamity Lord, who was originally incomparably powerful and induced despair, turn into a pile of nauseating meat paste in an instant.
This massive reversal was truly hard for them to accept for a moment; their minds seemed still immersed in the previous atmosphere of danger that was tense enough to be suffocating.
Only now did these members of Xiaolong Squad finally see clearly that a high school student in a school uniform was leaning over and gently holding Chu Shuangshuang, who was lying on the ground, in his arms.
At the same time, behind him stood a figure covered in blood, holding a short black blade, a monster exuding a thick Calamity Aura.
That strange and powerful murderous aura was enough to make even these battle-hardened elites feel a deep sense of fear welling up in their hearts.
What surprised them even more was how this high school student had appeared on this Calamity Front.
What on earth were the people responsible for guarding the barrier doing? To actually let a high school student break into such a perilous place so easily.
And at this moment, Zhou Chu seemed completely unaware that a more powerful and dangerous Calamity monster was standing behind him.
"Watch out, there's a Calamity Ghost behind you!"
Seeing this, a member of Xiaolong Squad hurriedly stretched his throat and shouted loudly toward Zhou Chu, his voice filled with unconcealable anxiety.
However, Zhou Chu acted as if he hadn't heard, picking up two backpacks from the ground on his own, and then unexpectedly threw them directly at the Calamity monster behind him.
Right under the astonished gazes of the crowd, the Calamity monster actually nodded slightly toward Zhou Chu like an extremely respectful servant, and then vanished into the air like a wisp of light smoke.
Witnessing this terrifying scene, all the members of Xiaolong Squad present felt a jolt in their hearts, their faces showing expressions of horror.
When they saw Zhou Chu, who was holding Chu Shuangshuang, walking toward them, the group couldn't help but take a step back, their eyes full of vigilance and fear.
This high school student before them was actually able to command that powerful Calamity monster at will?
Could it be that he himself was a Calamity monster?
Just then, a few crisp snapping sounds rang out abruptly.
Immediately following, several skeletons tightly gripping mechanical light crossbows appeared out of thin air.
Their hollow eye sockets flickered with a ghostly blue light, and they stood in perfect unison beside Zhou Chu, like a group of incomparably loyal guards.
This sudden turn of events made the atmosphere at the scene even more tense and strange, and it made these members of Xiaolong Squad feel as if they were facing a formidable enemy, their muscles involuntarily tensing up.
Seeing the overly tense appearance of these squad members, Zhou Chu understood in his heart that it was his appearance and this series of seemingly strange actions that had scared them.
Just as he was about to open his mouth to explain and clear up this misunderstanding, a voice filled with doubt suddenly rang out.
"Zhou Chu?"
Zhou Chu looked up at the sound and saw Lin Yue'er hurrying over with her medical squad not far away.
"Senior Sister Lin, it's me! Hurry over and help me check on my aunt!" Zhou Chu hurriedly shouted loudly, his voice full of anxiety.
But at this moment, a member of Xiaolong Squad took a step forward and blocked Lin Yue'er's path, saying with a serious expression: "Captain Lin, please don't go up there, this guy who looks like a high school student is a Calamity monster!"
As he spoke, he pointed at Zhou Chu and continued: "Look, these skeletons are his summons. Just now I even saw with my own eyes that he could command a powerful Calamity monster."
"Cough, what Calamity monster!" Lin Yue'er sighed speechlessly, frowned, pushed away the arm blocking her with force, and then ran quickly toward Zhou Chu.
"Hurry and lay her flat on the ground, let me take a look!" Lin Yue'er said urgently while running.
Zhou Chu nodded repeatedly and carefully laid Chu Shuangshuang flat on the ground.
Seeing this, Lin Yue'er hurriedly knelt beside Chu Shuangshuang and gently placed one hand on her forehead.
Immediately, a ray of holy Healing Light slowly emanated from her palm.
That Healing Light was like a soft halo, slowly enveloping Chu Shuangshuang's entire body.
Lin Yue'er closed her eyes tightly, her expression incomparably focused, as she continuously injected her own holy power into Chu Shuangshuang's body.
With the continuous injection of the Healing Light, Chu Shuangshuang's originally paper-white complexion gradually showed signs of improvement, and her lips, which had been devoid of color, seemed to have a hint of faint ruddiness.
After a while, Lin Yue'er slowly opened her eyes, and fine beads of sweat had already seeped onto her forehead.
She gently raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her temples, let out a long breath, looked at Zhou Chu, and said: "Zhou Chu, Captain Chu's injuries are very serious, but they have been temporarily stabilized."
"She needs to rest well now to recover her physical strength and Soul Power; my Holy Healing Art can only do this much for now."
Hearing this, the heavy stone hanging in Zhou Chu's heart finally fell to the ground, and he said with great gratitude: "Senior Sister Lin, thanks to you, otherwise I wouldn't have known what to do."
"Oh right, I heard you call Captain Chu 'aunt' just now?"
"Could it be that she is your biological aunt?" Lin Yue'er's eyes suddenly lit up, and she couldn't help but ask curiously.
Zhou Chu nodded, his expression somewhat dejected as he said: "My own aunt."
However, he then sighed again and said self-reproachfully: "I only blame myself for being too stupid and ignorant back then, not knowing that my aunt was actually a member of the Exorcism Army."
Lin Yue'er said in realization: "No wonder you ran to the Southern Battlefield. But this place is even more dangerous than Demon Cave No. 55; you didn't run here all by yourself again, did you?"
Just as they were speaking, a member of Xiaolong Squad walked over with a serious expression and questioned Zhou Chu: "This is a frontline war zone, how did a high school student like you manage to get in?"
"If there is no special approval document from the Military Department, I will report this immediately; no matter whose relative you are, you will not escape accountability."
Lin Yue'er was unhappy the moment she heard this; she glared angrily at that squad member and said: "Zhou Chu coming to the front line doesn't need special approval from the Military Department at all!"
As she spoke, she turned her head to glare at Zhou Chu and urged: "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and take out your Honor Medal to show them properly."
