D-level males reached the pinnacle of life by living off women.

The insects that Rhine sent out followed Lu Yuan for a long time, but nothing happened or anything unusual was found during that time, so Rhine had no choice but to withdraw the insects.

Lu Yuan enjoyed a period of peace and happiness, but soon after the insects sent by Rhine withdrew, trouble struck him immediately.

That day, Lu Yuan was walking normally on the road when, as he passed a building, he suddenly heard the insects around him screaming, and then he heard a whooshing sound overhead.

Lu Yuan instinctively looked up, then his pupils dilated in shock. He saw a huge bundle of metal bars suddenly falling from the sky and hurtling straight toward him.

Everything happened too fast; Lu Yuan didn't have time to run. Although he was shocked, he wasn't afraid.

Because he was carrying the locator that Rhine had given him, and the locator had protective features.

But as soon as Lu Yuan pressed the button on the locator to raise the protective shield, he felt a huge force coming from the right side of his body, and then he involuntarily fell to the left.

Then there was a loud bang, the sound of something hitting the ground, followed by dust and smoke.

Lu Yuan was pushed to the ground, and a blue protective shield rose around his body. He stared in disbelief at everything in front of him, not knowing how to react.

When the dust settled, Lu Yuan discovered that there was an insect under the scattered metal strips. He realized that this insect must be the one that had tried to save him and pushed him aside.

Just as Lu Yuan was about to step forward to save the insect, his communicator suddenly vibrated violently. As soon as the call connected, Rhine's anxious voice came through.

"My lord, why has the locator's protective shield activated? What happened?"

"Rhine, I'm fine. I'll tell you the details later. I need to call the hospital first. Youchong was injured while saving me."

Lu Yuan hung up the phone immediately after speaking and then dialed the emergency center.

The rescue aircraft arrived quickly, and before it did, Lu Yuan and the surrounding insects had already removed the metal strips that were pressing down on them.

After the rescue aircraft arrived, the medical personnel on board immediately disembarked to check on the insects on the ground, who were already unconscious due to their injuries.

After the medical staff performed basic first aid, they immediately carried the insect on the ground into the aircraft. As the insect that was rescued, Lu Yuan naturally followed suit and boarded the aircraft as well.

On the way to the hospital, Lu Yuan dialed Rhein's number, and it was answered almost immediately.

"My lord, what exactly happened?" Rhine asked.

Lu Yuan told Rhein what had happened on the road.

"I'm fine, don't worry. But the insect that saved me looks badly injured. I'm on the emergency medical aircraft now, accompanying the insect to the hospital," Lu Yuan said.

"Which hospital are you planning to take him to?" Rhine asked.

"Beland Hospital," Lu Yuan replied after asking the medical staff next to him.

"Then you go first, my lord. I'll set off immediately to find you at the Berland Hospital."

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Yuan looked at Chong, who was still unconscious on the stretcher, and felt very complicated.

Actually, with the protective shield there, even if those metal strips hit him, he wouldn't be hurt.

But now, this kind-hearted worm has injured itself like this to save him, a worm that would otherwise be fine, which really weighs heavily on his mind.

Before long, the aircraft entered the Berland Hospital, where medical staff were already waiting at the door. The insect on the stretcher was immediately taken into the emergency room.

Meanwhile, a nurse found Lu Yuan.

"Sir, are you a family member of the patient who was just infected?" the nurse asked.

"No, I don't know him, but he was injured while saving me, and I will pay for his medical expenses," Lu Yuan said.

That's all you need to say. The nurse told Lu Yuan to hurry up and pay the bill.

After paying the fee, Lu Yuan rested for a while on the chair in the corridor. Then the nurse came over again and said that the test results for the worm that saved him were in, and that he should go to the doctor.

Lu Yuan nervously arrived at the doctor's office. As soon as he entered, he saw the doctor sitting inside with his brows furrowed tightly, as if they were tied in knots. Lu Yuan's heart sank.

"Sir, are you a family member of this patient?" The doctor looked at the examination report on the computer and asked the same question as the nurse.

"No, but he got injured while saving me. I will pay for all his medical expenses. Doctor, is he seriously injured?" Lu Yuan asked.

The doctor nodded.

"The examination results showed that his spine was broken," the doctor said.

Lu Yuan's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally died. His spine was broken, which meant he would be paralyzed. He was doomed; he would have to raise that worm for the rest of his life.

"In his case, self-repair is possible, but it would be quite complicated, not only time-consuming, but also potentially risky due to bone misalignment."

"So the best course of action is to be treated in the medical pod. However, even if you are admitted to the medical pod, it will take at least a month and the cost will be considerable. Which treatment method would you like to use?" the doctor asked.

Lu Yuan's dead heart has come back to life. That's great. As long as he can be cured, that's all that matters. Long live advanced medical technology!

"Using the medical pod isn't a problem, as long as he can be fully cured," Lu Yuan quickly replied.

The doctor nodded and went to arrange the treatment.

Lu Yuan returned to the chair in the corridor, looking much more relaxed.

A little while later, Rhine arrived.

"My lord, how is the insect that saved you?" Rhine asked.

"His injuries are quite severe; his spine is broken, but it's treatable. I've already had the doctor put him in the medical pod. I don't care about the cost; as long as he can be cured, that's all that matters," Lu Yuan replied.

Rhine nodded in agreement.

"Now that he's already inside the medical pod, there's no point in us waiting here. Lord, let's go home first. We'll come back to see him after he comes out of the medical pod," Rhine said.

Once inside the medical pod, you must wait until your body has fully recovered before the pod door will reopen.

If the treatment takes a long time, the medical pod will put the worms inside into a dormant state, and the pod will be automatically filled with nutrient solution to ensure the worms' survival needs.

After paying for the medical pod, Lu Yuan went home with Rhine. Having been so frightened today, he didn't feel like going to work anymore, so he simply took a day off to rest at home.

Rhein took Lu Yuan home and, after confirming that Lu Yuan was in good condition, returned to the military headquarters.

As soon as he arrived at his office, he immediately sent the insect to investigate the cause of Lu Yuan's accident, and at the same time to investigate the identity and background of the insect that saved Lu Yuan.
