When an alien is bound to a world-saving system Chapter 8

With a thump, the black-haired youth felt that his right hand seemed to have sliced through something. He immediately felt his mind relax, that threatening aura had disappeared in an instant! The black-haired youth regained control of himself and turned to look behind him.

Then, a certain alien looked on in horror as a bloody head flew out along the trajectory of his cut! Then, the headless corpse next to him crashed to the ground with a bang, splattering blood all over the floor! After drawing a perfect parabola in the air, the head smashed into the wooden floors, rolling to a stop by the wall. That seemingly familiar face was facing the youth!

A certain alien: “I seem to have seen him in the news before……”

At this moment, a devilish sound pierced through his mind.

System 2d14: [Ah!!!!!!!!! Lord Host, you killed someone!!! Why did you kill Big Boss Huo Li ah!!!]

Meanwhile, in a place a certain alien couldn't hear

System 099: [Ding! Host has been confirmed dead! Ding! System 099 once again requests to return to the host system……]

A certain alien who caused an accident immediately calmed down and made a decision! He quickly sped to the wall and picked up that person's head. Running back, he then firmly pressed the head onto the corpse's neck!

Because the Alliance Town was so clean that there wasn't even a speck of organic matter for him to absorb, the black-haired youth had no choice but to transform his own left arm and shoulder into black strands. A portion of it quickly extended to Huo Li's neck and mended the joint, while the remaining black strands scattered all around the room, collecting the blood and flesh splattered on the floor and walls.

System 099: [Ding! System 099 has retracted its request! The Host is being restored! Restoration level: 1%, 3%……]

“Don't panic!” The black-haired youth roared at System 2d14 who was wailing in his mind. “It hasn't been a minute since the brain oxygen supply was cut off. I can definitely save him!”

The black-haired youth leaned down and looked closely at Huo Li's open eyes. Seeing the dark brown pupils, he thought: “His pupils haven't dilated yet. Why is there no reaction?”

His hand lightly patted Huo Li's cheek while calling: “Huo Li! Huo Li! Can you hear me?”

Meanwhile, in a certain room of the medial building

[Ding! Spare body number 4 is waking up!]

After just 20 minutes, Huo Li once again climbed out of the hibernation chamber. He expressionlessly walked to the cupboard and started putting on his clothes while using his mental force to look at the black-haired youth calling his name through the ‘corpse's' eyes.

Huo Li looked at the youth clasping his cheek with one hand, leaning close and seriously gazing into his eyes. At this moment, the youth's deep black eyes showed genuine concern for him.

The black-haired youth's face was very close. Huo Li could clearly count each of his eyelashes. He could even sense the youth's breath lightly brushing his skin……

For a split second, Huo Li seemed to feel something pulling at his heartstrings……

However, when he noticed the countless black strands morphing from the youth's left hand, fear and vigilance instantly dispelled the trace of emotion that shouldn't exist.

Huo Li resisted the urge to respond to the youth's call. He laid in the youth's arms as a corpse, pretending to be unresponsive to everything in the world around him.

In the ‘corpse's' mind, System 099 weakly asked: [Lord Host, this body has been completely restored. Do you…… want to come back?]

Huo Li looked cautiously at the body that had been touched by the black strands. He said to 099:

“No, I won't go back. Apply for unbinding to the host system, I will explain the reason. Then, come back and rebind with my current body.”

System 099: [Yes, Lord Host.]

Meanwhile

A certain alien was hard-pressed as he ‘rescued' a beheaded ‘corpse'. Most of Huo Li's flesh and blood were transported through the black strands and stitched back onto his neck. The entire neck was almost completely restored, but Huo Li still didn't have any response to his calls, nor did he have a heartbeat.

The black haired youth muttered to himself: “This is impossible! He only lost a little blood. Why can't he wake up?”

A certain alien directly used his left arm as raw material and synthesised close to a litre of blood matching Huo Li's blood type. He then injected the blood via black strands into Huo Li's carotid artery.

However, Huo Li still had no heartbeat.

The helpless black-haired youth could only resort to using humanity's first aid treatment: lowering his body, he used his lips to cover Huo Li's mouth, attempting to blow air inside……

Huo Li was completely unsuspecting when he saw the youth's face magnify in front of his eyes. He then felt the soft touch of the youth's lips against his own. Huo Li exhausted all his reason to press down his pounding heart, escaping from his body as though he had suffered an electric shock!

In the medical building, Huo Li touched his burning red face and angrily thought: What just happened to me? Why should I run? It must be that I was afraid the alien would seize the opportunity to harm me! It's definitely because of this!

His mental force still lingered around the ‘corpse', but when he saw those pair of lips, he didn't dare to go back again.

After passing two mouthfuls of air, a certain alien lifted his head and looked at the ‘corpse' filled with anticipation! However, he suddenly discovered that Huo Li's pupils had already started to dilate (because his spirit ran away)……

System 2d14 was almost scared to death as he cried: [Lord Host! Should we call for an ambulance?]

The black-haired youth: “The Alliance Town also has ambulances?”

System 2d14: [Yes!]

The black-haired youth: “Then hurry up and call for one!”

System 2d14: [Ding! Ambulance application has been approved and will arrive within 3 minutes. Now requesting the applicant to provide the victim's system serial number and damage situation.] Then, System 2d14 rushed to say: [System serial number 099. The damage situation is the head was chopped……”

“Damage situation: carotid artery scratch!” The black haired youth quickly interrupted his stupid system while converting his left hand into adrenaline and injecting it into Huo Li with the black strands.

[Ding! Serial number 099, carotid artery scratch, has been submitted.]

After a few minutes, a certain alien watched Huo Li, who didn't seem to have any vital signs, be transported onto the ambulance with an automatic stretcher.

I can't have really killed him, right?

A certain alien didn't dare to believe this: “But it looks like I completely pieced him back together ah? I also gave him so much blood, and even converted some adrenaline and dopamine for him. How can he die?”

In the medical building, Huo Li knitted his eyebrows as he used his mental force to ‘look' at this scene. It seemed like he could still feel the severe pain from when his neck had just been completely cut open. And similarly, his lips still…… Huo Li vigorously shook his head and dispersed certain thoughts he shouldn't have. He then grimly said:

“099, tell the medical building to do a comprehensive scan of that body. Check whether there are any alien gene residues in it.”

System 099: [Yes, Lord Host!]

After a few minutes

System 099: [Ding! The medical scan has been completed. The aforementioned body's functions are completely normal. No alien genes or cell residues were found. Lord Host, should we go back to that body?]

Huo Li: “No, place that body in the Alliance Monitoring Room to hibernate. Also, apply for a Class 1 alert.”

System 099: [Yes, Lord Host.]

At this moment, a certain alien didn't know that that ‘victim' had such a high vigilance against the body he had just treated. He and his system were currently sitting in the small house for sale, look at each other in dismay and at a complete loss of what to do.

A certain alien weakly asked: “If you kill someone in the Alliance Town, do you need to pay for it with your life?”

System 2d14 sobbed: [You need to go to criminal court. Lord Host, I will testify for you! When you cut him, you didn't even see who he was. This can only be regarded as manslaughter!]

A certain alien: “…… Thank you!”

System 2d14: [Ding! The host system is announcing your punishment notice: A vicious murder occurred in the Salvation Alliance Town this afternoon! However, because the victim, System 099's host, used an exclusive substitute to resurrect, the aforementioned murderer did not cause any serious consequences. The person involved in this incident has been exempted from criminal punishment.]

The black-haired youth let out a big sigh of relief: “Great! He didn't die!”

System 2d14: [Ding! Now announcing the points deduction process of the person involved: 1. Intentionally causing harm to others, deduction of 500,000 points. 2. Causing the victim to temporarily die, deduction of 400,000 points. 3. Killing the victim in a vicious way that brought the victim extreme pain and psychological trauma, deduction of 20,000 points. 4. Ambulance cost 400 points, rescue cost 1000 points, comprehensive body scan cost 3000 points, total deduction of 4400 points. 5. Because the person involved took the initiative to restore the victim's body, the aforementioned body can continue to be used as an exclusive substitute. The 500 million points required to use an exclusive substitute does not need to be deducted. End of transmission.]

System 2d14 still had lingering fears as he said: [Lord Host! Fortunately Big Boss Huo Li didn't die! It's just deducting a few points.]

A certain alien: “The Salvation Alliance can also resurrect saviours after death?”

System 2d14: “No, regardless of whether it's in the mission world or the Alliance Town, if you die then you're dead. Oh, right! A saviour can also spend points to buy a tombstone for when they die! There is a cemetery built on the other side of the Alliance Town. However, we currently don't have any money to buy one. The cheapest 10 cm x 10 cm small tombstone requires 500,000 points.]

A certain alien: “……”

System 2d14: [So I also don't know why Big Boss Huo Li can spend 500 million points to resurrect.]

Remembering his points, a certain alien was distressed and took one last look at the small house he was reluctant to part with. He then walked out and said to the system:

“Ai, we can't buy a house now. Tonight, we can only go to the capsule hotel the shop assistant mentioned before.”

System 2d14: [Lord Host…… you now have a total of 10,002 points remaining. If you spend 25 points on a capsule hotel, you will be demoted to a B rank saviour……]

A certain alien: “Then how much does the cheapest food cost?”

System 2d14: [A nutrition pack costs 3 points……]

Consequently, half an hour later

A certain alien missing half an arm and with his stomach rumbling in hunger miserably wandered around the streets of the Salvation Alliance Town…… looking for a garbage dump.

The author has something to say:

The reason the host system deducted points is a foreshadowing. It will be explain in the nuclear pollution world (Chapter 52 onwards).

Little theatre:

Huo Li: “If he really is malicious to humanity, then I will kill him!”

Half an hour later

Having been double killed in one day, Huo Li expressionlessly sat up in the hibernation chamber……
