Chapter 323 Treating The Injured
"I\'m going to help Mary out as well," Vanessa announced to Shi Tian, ensuring that he would know that she wasn\'t going to be idle and useless.
Shi Tian merely nodded his head briefly without responding.
He was indeed a bit surprised that she was willing to take action, given that she was constantly worried about being embroiled in the drama of Geairts City due to her identity.
Nevertheless, Shi Tian was glad that Vanessa was starting to change her mindset and behavior. It simply meant that she was adapting and learning.
While both the women had exited the Iron Sentinel, Shi Tian expertly maneuvered the drone, its rotors humming as it soared above them.
It transmitted real-time footage to his console, giving them a bird\'s-eye view of the battlefield. The conflict was a chaotic spectacle, and it was clear that the soldiers in Benedict\'s uniform were locked in a fierce firefight.
"Just who is fighting Benedict\'s army?" Shi Tian murmured in confusion.
The drone\'s camera panned further, revealing the gravity of the situation.
Shi Tian soon came to the conclusion that it wasn\'t just a random skirmish; it was a full-blown battle with tanks, artillery, and infantry. Smoke and dust filled the air as explosions punctuated the landscape, creating a scene reminiscent of a war zone.
As Shi Tian observed the chaos through the drone\'s lens, he noticed something peculiar.
There was a group of soldiers who seemed to be retreating from the battle.
They were heavily wounded, supporting one another as they stumbled away from the conflict. These were the soldiers who had likely ejected from the explosion moments earlier.
However, that wasn\'t even the peculiar finding that he noticed. It was the opposing party that caused Shi Tian to be dumbfounded.
The enemy that Benedict was fighting– was similar wearing a different kind of military uniform.
"Damn, are they having a civil war right here?" Shi Tian exclaimed in shock when he recognized the opposing side commander. Mary had given him information in the past, so he knew the faces of the military commanders, and the one Benedict was fighting was none other than Phoebe.
Confused by the two commanders going to war against each other, Shi Tian decided to record the battle anyway.
\'Might as well keep it for future uses… who knows if it comes in handy?\' Shi Tian thought to himself.
Back on the ground, Mary approached the injured figure who had crash-landed in front of the Iron Sentinel, with Vanessa coming up from behind.
Mary noticed Vanessa had decided to come out in the end, but paid no attention to her. Instead, she placed her attention on the soldier.
The injured soldier lay sprawled on the ground, his uniform torn and bloodied. Mary knelt beside him, her years of medical training taking over.
"Hey, can you hear me?" Mary asked, seemingly trying to engage in a conversation with the soldier.
When injured, it is best to ensure that the patient does not lose consciousness. After all, it would be disastrous if the patient lost consciousness and went into a coma, with some of them never reopening their eyes again.
The injured soldier, while still in tremendous pain, nodded his head in response to Mary\'s question.
Seeing that he was still responsive and could comprehend her words, Mary proceeded to open the medkit.
Carefully, Mary began to assess the soldier\'s injuries, and her expression grew graver with each passing moment. The soldier\'s condition was critical. His breathing was shallow, and he had lost a significant amount of blood.
As Vanessa arrived at the scene, Mary informed her, "We need to stabilize him, and prevent him from losing any more blood."
"I can manipulate some of the magicule and create a branch to help stabilize his limbs." Vanessa quickly suggested, letting Mary know that she was capable of doing such things.
"Then hurry it up and do that," Mary rolled her eyes. Time was of the essence, so why was she even bothering to suggest things to her?
Just do it!
As if learning what you are capable of would help the situation.
"What\'s with the tone…" Vanessa clicked her tongue, finding Mary to be so bossy at times. Nevertheless, she quickly maneuvered her hand, began manipulating the magicule, and constructed an earthy vine that soon tightened around the injured soldier\'s effectively stopping the blood from leaking out.
As if that wasn\'t enough, she also began to inject some magicule to stimulate the injured soldier for a speedy recovery.
The pale face of the injured soldier soon regained some color in his face as he seemed relieved slightly.
While Vanessa was healing the injured soldier through the manipulation of magicule, Mary on the other hand began administering physical medical aid.
Time slowly passed by, and the injured soldier was no longer in a critical state, thanks to the teamwork of both Mary and Vanessa.
"So what happened to you that caused you to crash down like a comet?" Vanessa then asked the moment she realized he was safe. It was as if she was so eager for an answer that she didn\'t even let him get a breather.
Mary, wanting to scold her, decided it was best not to, given that she wanted an answer as well.
The injured soldier coughed a few times, seemingly unwilling to reveal the cause of his plight, given that he had recognized Mary. Back when he arrived at the camp, he recognized Mary was standing quite close to Theobold, prompting him to be overly suspicious of their conduct.
It was clear that he was doubting whether or not their appearance was a scheme or not.
"It\'s nothing major… we were merely having a military training drill and it went wrong." The injured soldier gave a terrible excuse and attempted to get up, only to stumble and crash right back down.
