Mo Li raised her head to look down the endless tunnel. She struggled to pick the man up from the ground. Even though she had made a simple poison filter, she had no idea how long it would last.
Xu Lun frowned. The quality of the soldiers was too polarizing. The fast ones were so fast but the slow ones were too slow. The 12-minute mark was up and there were still people inside the tunnel.
Just as Xu Lun started to get worried, Ding Cheng ran out. “You guys just wanted to kill me!”
Xu Lun frowned deeper when he saw Ding Chen. Even Fang Ming and Xiao Ran were red-faced and flushed when they came out, but Ding Chen only sweated a little. He didn’t even look taxed. It looked like he had taken a stroll through the park.
Xu Lun was about to ask him something when Bian Mei could be heard crying. “I-I will never do this again! Thank you, big sister!” Bian Mei held Cheng Xiao’s hands tightly. Tears fell down her face. Bian Mei’s face was red from holding her breath. Cheng Xiao was also panting heavily. Cheng Xiao was almost out of the tunnel when she noticed the girl was having trouble breathing. She shared her oxygen tank with her. Thankfully they were both close to the exit already.
“So everyone is out?” Pan Huang looked at the others and soon realized Mo Li was missing.
“I said her crap is useless. It’s worse than a normal mask!” Ding Chen complained because they had to wait for everyone before they could get off work.
Xu Lun frowned. Based on what he saw, Mo Li’s filter was perfect. The filter should be effective in this situation.
5 minutes later, Mo Li finally walked out of the tunnel carrying the recruit. She collapsed during her last few steps. Her face was purple and red. The veins on her neck popped. She dropped when she saw the light. Xu Lun immediately ran over when he saw this. The filter made by Mo Li was on the new recruit’s face. The oxygen tank was empty. The new recruit did not look so well.
“Are you alright?” Xu Lun helped Mo Li up.
Mo Li turned to Xu Lun. “I’m fine. He’s just a bit heavy.” Regardless, Mo Li’s face was very pale. She forced herself to stand up and walk towards the recruit. She did heart resuscitation on him. Xu Lun noted how tired Mo Li was so he quickly took over from her. Xu Lun worked until the recruit regained his breath.
Ding Cheng looked at the recruit and said nothing.
Fang Ming carried Mo Li up from the ground. Pan Huang was worried too. Even though he had little interaction with Mo Li, from what he saw, she would achieve great things in the future.
“What happened in the tunnel? Why is your filter on his face?” Xu Lun asked Mo Li.
Mo Li shook her head. “He has already fainted when I saw him. He was poisoned. His body had no injury but his oxygen tank was missing. If he was left inside, he might die. So I gave him my oxygen tank. However, I couldn’t move fast carrying him. I only gave him my filter after I saw he had regained some consciousness.”
Zhu Huan was greatly impressed. “Mo Li, you’re amazing. What was it that you made? It blocked the poison!”
Mo Li glanced at Xu Lun and uttered, “He should be fine but I worry about him. You better watch over him!”
Xu Lun nodded. He would take care of the recruit because he needed him to wake up to tell him what happened.
After Xu Lun left, Mo Li turned to Zhu Huan, “That was a simple poison gas filter.”
“You need to teach me. Perhaps I can use it in the future!”
Mo Li was pestered so she shared with them the secret. “You need to mix the same ratio of quicklime and clay before adding water to make a block. For filtration, I used cotton wool, and for isolation, I used mask cloth.”
Pan Huang nodded with approval. “Even at my age, I don’t know all that!”
