Fatal Strike: Paladins Mercenary Road

Chapter 703 Abnormality
The extra-large skewers of grilled meat are placed on a horizontal natural wood grill. The fine charcoal below releases heat, and the horizontal section of wood above is also smoldering. Driven by the heat generated from both sides, the beef soon begins to release its aroma.

The sky was gradually getting dark, but it would still take a long time to roast the reindeer.

But no one is in a hurry...

The ladies entered the cabin and began to pack the vegetables picked from the greenhouse. The butcher and his men simply put fireproof boards on the ground of the terrace, moved the eight smoldering stump ovens onto the terrace, and then each of them got a fishing stool and sat on the terrace in the minus 8 degrees Celsius and started drinking.

Yue Yi, who was covered in dirt, was dragged into the room by his mother and cleaned up before he was allowed to come out to play.

He first went to check on the injured snowy owl and its child, then found some minced meat and cut a plate of shredded meat for the snowy owl...

The four-year-old boy showed strong hands-on ability and great courage.

Xiao Wan didn't know how she felt, although the so-called hunting was just Lao Qiao holding Yue Yi's hand and guiding him to shoot a reindeer, and then taking him to gut the reindeer and throw away the internal organs.

But the initiative and happiness that my son has shown since arriving in Alaska are visible to the naked eye.

When at home, this child always moves like the beads on an abacus...

You need to change your shoes, wash your hands, and take off your coat when you enter the house, eat some fruit every day, eat a combination of meat and vegetables, go to bed before 10 pm, get up before 7 am, and so on and so forth...

These are all good things when viewed separately, but when combined together they seem to form a big network.

Although the child did not explicitly express that he was depressed, it can be seen from the comparison that Yue Yi is very happy now.

Xiao Wan felt a little depressed because she worked so hard but got no good results.

She glanced at Yue Yi, who had stolen a little snowy owl and was trying to sneak out of the cabin by sticking to the wall, and couldn't help but shout...

"Put on your hat and coat..."

Startled, Yue Yi dejectedly put on his clothes as his mother asked, then obediently put on his thick snow boots and walked onto the terrace.

Looking at her son's appearance, Xiao Wan shook her head a little depressed. Then she looked at Angel who was helping her wash vegetables, and after hesitating for a moment, she said, "Angel, am I not too strict with you?"

Angel was stunned for a moment, then a bright smile appeared on his face and he said, "Mum, you are the most caring and kind mother I have ever met..."

Xiao Wan nodded happily, but just as she was about to continue working, she realized something was wrong...

But seeing how happy Angel was, she couldn't tell what was wrong!

She seldom discussed the tragic past of these children with others, and when Shanying talked about them he only gave a general idea of their past.

Happiness is always measured by comparison. Compared to their laboratory life, life at the University of Tokyo is too comfortable.

But for Yue Yi, it was another matter...

The young man was wearing something bulky. He deliberately opened his coat, put the little snowy owl on his neck, and walked over to the mountain eagle that was grilling meat...

"Dad, let's go hunting again tomorrow. I'm going to hunt a moose. Old Joe said that a moose in Alaska can feed all of us for three days..."

Yue Yi proudly showed the snowy owl on his neck to Luna, who was clinging to the mountain eagle like a follower, and said happily: "Luna, Lao Qiao said I am the best hunter..."

Luna was the kind of child who couldn’t stand being provoked. She wrinkled her nose and snorted at Yue Yi, saying, “I’m better than you. I’m the best hunter. You’re only second at best…”

“No, I’m number one…”

Shanying looked at the two quarreling little guys with a headache. He observed the barbecue in the tree trunk oven, carefully took out a skewer, cut off a piece, divided it into two portions, and stuffed them into the mouths of the two little guys...

Seeing his son sucking the food in his mouth and not wanting to spit it out because of the burn, Shanying felt that the food was about cooked.

Shanying asked the butcher to help him get a few large stainless steel plates, put all the more than ten pounds of meat on the skewers in his hand, and then sprinkled cumin and chili powder on them...

"It will probably take a while for the food inside to be ready, so let's drink a little to warm ourselves up first..."

The patio is warmed by the heat from eight stacked tree stump grills, and stainless steel plates placed on top of the grills keep the meat hot.

A bunch of men sat together, poured vodka and whiskey and started eating and drinking...

As night fell, the temperature began to drop, but the low temperature of more than 20 degrees below zero did not affect everyone's mood at all.

After drinking two cups, the 'pirate' took off his coat first, turned off the warmth system in his underwear, rolled up his sleeves and began to eat at his desk...

Under the illumination of the headlights above the terrace, heat began to come out of the pirate's exposed skin. Wisps of white steam floated upward, making the 'pirate' seem much more mysterious and taller.

Led by the 'pirate', the others took off their hats one after another... their sweat-soaked hair froze in just a few seconds of exposure to the air, and then smoke began to come out of everyone's heads due to the dissipation of body heat.

This phenomenon is very interesting...

Luna threw away her hat, scooped up a handful of snow from the ground and smeared it on her messy hair that was growing wildly like straw. When her hair became slightly hard, she combed the frozen hair into two pointed corners, then blew a puff of mist at Yue Yi who was looking envious, and knocked him to the ground with her head.

Although Yue Yi had been defeated in every battle, he still chose to fight Luna's provocation...

The two little ones chased the eagle around for a few rounds, and then were separated by the eagle using barbecue...

Seeing Luna's head getting even hotter due to exercise, Yue Yi threw away his hat, took off his coat and rolled up his sleeves like a 'pirate'...

But no matter what he did, he just couldn't get steam coming out of his body like the others.

This discovery made Yue Yi very depressed. He sat on the stool gloomily, his eyes occasionally glancing at the wine glass in his father's hand. He thought that it must be because he didn't drink, so he was different from others.

Shanying grabbed Luna, who was eating so much that her mouth was full of oil, and chuckled and combed her hair into a mop head...

Seeing Yue Yi's unhappy look, Shanying curiously reached out and touched his neck, and then unexpectedly found that the child's body was actually a little hot...

This discovery startled Shanying. He reached out and touched Yue Yi's forehead. The temperature of his forehead seemed to be a little higher than normal.

Thinking his son had a fever, Shanying asked worriedly, "Where do you feel uncomfortable?"

Yue Yi stuffed the chili-powdered barbecue into his mouth, sniffed while chewing, and said, "I don't feel uncomfortable...

Dad, why don’t I smoke? Smoking is cool! "

Shanying was stunned for a moment, then he pulled Yue Yi's neck and checked his clothes, and found that the boy was only wearing a thermal underwear and a thick fleece hoodie. The heavy down jacket had been thrown aside...

Shanying curiously touched Yue Yi's ears and nose, and found that they were not cold at all. He frowned and said, "Aren't you cold?"

Yue Yi shook his head without feeling anything and said, "It's not cold, I even feel a little hot..."

Shanying put his hand into Yue Yi's clothes again and found that his body was indeed a little hot, but he was not sweating.

This discovery scared Shanying, not because he was worried that Yue Yi was sick, but because he himself was the same.

Ever since he woke up from his coma, his body has changed. In hot places, his body can dissipate heat faster, but in cold places, his body can lock in heat, so he is not afraid of the cold at all.

But when his son also had this condition, Shanying became a little worried...

He knew that his problem was caused by the virus in the laboratory, but his son had never been exposed to it, so why did this happen?
When Xiao Wan and the Griffin came out with the mixed vegetable salad, they happened to see Shanying lifting up Yue Yi's clothes to reveal his bare back...

She quickly stepped forward and hit Shanying angrily, saying, "Are you crazy? What if you make your son sick?"

Shanying laughed dryly as he put Yue Yi's clothes down and tucked the hem of the clothes into his pants...

He is very worried now, but he cannot show it too obviously and cause Xiaowan anxiety.

It is difficult for people who have not experienced it to imagine the pain that Shanying once went through. The mental torment of constant nightmares during the coma and the pain that felt like needles pricking the whole body during the recovery period are simply indescribable.

He was worried that his son would have the same situation as himself...

Looking at Xiao Wan who was looking at him coldly, Shan Ying sneered and patted his son on the head, scolding: "Who told you to take off your clothes? Put them on..."

"Oh……"

Yue Yi dejectedly picked up the down jacket on the ground and put it on, then sat on the stool depressedly and argued with the barbecue in front of him.

Just as Xiao Wan was about to scold him, she remembered her own reflection just now. She took a deep breath, pushed the bowl of salad into Shanying's arms, and said, "He's your son, you can do whatever you want..."

Shanying laughed dryly and nodded repeatedly, saying, "I know, I know, I'll watch him, and if he doesn't obey, I'll beat him up."

After saying that, Shanying stood up, winked at Dalia, then pulled Yue Yi up and brought him into the wooden house...

The three of them went up to the study on the second floor. Shanying asked Dalia to draw a few tubes of blood from himself and his son, and then put them in an incubator...

"Call the donkeys and send the blood samples to Anchorage Hospital by helicopter so they can do the most detailed testing."
