Fatal Strike: Mercenary Road of Gunfire Ranger Chapter 754 - 702: Anomaly

The massive skewers of roast at were placed on a horizontal natural wood grill, with fine charcoal below releasing heat, while the cross-section of the horizontally placed wood above was also slowly burning. Under the heat generated from both sides, the beef soon began to emit an aroma.

At this ti, the sky was gradually darkening, but the roast reindeer still needed a long ti to cook.

However, no one was in a hurry…

The ladies went into the cabin to start preparing the vegetables picked from the greenhouse, while the Butcher and the others simply laid fireproof boards on the terrace floor and moved the eight smoldering stump grills onto the terrace. Each grabbed a fishing stool, sitting there at minus twenty degrees to start drinking.

Yue Yi, who was dirty all over, was pulled inside by his mom to clean up before being allowed to co out and play.

He first went to check on the injured Snowy Owl and its child, skillfully finding so scraps of at and slicing a plate of at strips for the Snowy Owl…

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

Xiao Wan didn't quite know how to feel. Although the so-called hunting was just Old Qiao guiding Yue Yi's hand to shoot down a reindeer and then helping him gut it and discard the entrails.

But ever since the family arrived in Alaska, the initiative and joy her son exhibited were visibly apparent.

At ho, this child was always like an abacus bead, moving only when pushed…

Entering the house required changing shoes, washing hands, taking off the coat, eating so fruit daily, having a balanced diet, going to bed before ten at night, and getting up before seven in the morning, and so on and so forth…

Individually, these are all good habits, but together, they seed to beco a large net.

The child, although not explicitly expressing being repressed, the contrast made it clear—Yue Yi was so happy now.

This feeling of being busy without gaining good results slightly depressed Xiao Wan.

She looked at Yue Yi, who had sneaked a little snow owl and was trying to slip out of the cabin along the wall, and couldn't help but shout…

"Put on your hat and wear your coat…"

Frightened, Yue Yi dejectedly followed his mom's demands, put on his coat, and then obediently wore thick snow boots before stepping out onto the terrace.

Watching her son, Xiao Wan shook her head in slight frustration, and then she looked at Angel, who was helping her wash vegetables. After hesitating for a mont, she asked, "Angel, am I being too strict with you guys?"

Angel paused for a mont, then showed a radiant smile, saying, "Mum, you are the most attentive and kind-hearted mom I've ever known…"

Xiao Wan happily nodded upon hearing this, but just as she was about to continue working, she realized sothing was amiss…

But seeing Angel's joyous expression, she couldn't pinpoint what was wrong!

She rarely discussed the kids' tragic pasts; Mountain Eagle spoke of their past only briefly when ntioning them.

Happiness is always relative. Compared to their laboratory lives, East University's life was very comfortable.

But for Yue Yi, it was a different story…

The boy, wearing so cumberso clothes, intentionally left his coat open, placing the little snow owl around his neck and swaggering over to Mountain Eagle, who was grilling the at…

"Dad, let's go hunting again tomorrow. I want to hunt a moose; Old Qiao said an Alaskan moose can feed us all for three days…"

Saying this, Yue Yi proudly showed the snowy owl around his neck to Luna, who was following Mountain Eagle around like a shadow, happily saying, "Luna, Old Qiao said I'm the best hunter…"

Luna was the type who couldn't handle being provoked. She wrinkled her nose at Yue Yi and said, "I'm better than you, I'm the best hunter, at most you're second place…"

"No, I'm number one…"

Mountain Eagle, a bit troubled by the two little ones' incessant arguing, checked the roast at within the stump grill carefully, pulling out a skewer, cutting a piece, dividing it into two portions, and stuffing them into the mouths of the little ones…

Watching his son unwilling to spit out the at despite it burning his mouth, Mountain Eagle figured the roast was about ready.

Mountain Eagle called the Butcher over to help bring a few large stainless steel plates. He stripped all the dozen pounds of at from the skewer into the plates, then sprinkled cumin and chili powder over it…

"The inside might take a while to prepare, so let's have a drink to warm up first…"

The heat from eight piled stump grills ward the terrace, and the stainless steel plates perched on the grills kept the roast at a constant temperature.

A bunch of n gathered, poured vodka and whiskey, and started eating and drinking…

As nightfall descended, the temperature began to drop, but the minus over twenty degrees low temperature didn't affect everyone's moods at all.

After a couple of drinks, Pirate was the first to take off his coat, turn off the warming system in his underwear, rolled up his sleeves and started devouring the food on the table…

In the illumination of the large light above the terrace, steam began to rise from the exposed skin of Pirate, wisps of white steam wafting upwards, making Pirate seem mysterious and much taller.

With the 'Pirate' taking the lead, the others removed their hats...

The hair dampened with sweat was exposed to the air for only a few seconds before forming ice, and then due to the emission of body heat, smoke started to rise from everyone's heads.

This phenonon was extrely interesting...

Luna tossed her hat aside and grabbed a handful of snow from the ground, rubbing it into her wild, straw-like hair. When the hair slightly hardened, she shaped the icy strands into two sharp points, then blew a mist at Yue Yi's face, knocking him to the ground.

Despite losing many tis before, Yue Yi chose to confront Luna's provocation...

The two little ones chased each other around Mountain Eagle for a few laps before Mountain Eagle separated them with roast at...

Watching Luna, whose smoke was even thicker after so exercise, Yue Yi tossed away his hat, imitating the 'Pirate' as he removed his coat and rolled up his sleeves...

But no matter what he did, he couldn't make his body emit smoke like the others.

This discovery left Yue Yi very disappointed. He sat gloomily on a stool, occasionally glancing at the wine glass in his father's hand, thinking that it must be because he hadn't drunk any, hence he was different from the others.

Mountain Eagle took hold of Luna, whose face was greasy with food, and playfully styled her hair into a broom-like appearance...

Seeing Yue Yi's gloomy expression, Mountain Eagle curiously reached out and touched his neck, only to be surprised to find that the child's body was sowhat warm...

This discovery startled Mountain Eagle, who then touched Yue Yi's forehead, realizing the temperature seed slightly higher than normal.

Thinking his son might have a fever, Mountain Eagle asked worriedly, "Is anything wrong with you?"

Yue Yi stuffed the roast at covered with chili powder into his mouth, chewing while sniffling, and said, "I'm not uncomfortable anywhere...

Dad, why don't I have smoke, having smoke is cool!"

Mountain Eagle was taken aback, then checked Yue Yi's clothes by tugging at his neck, discovering the boy was only wearing a thermal undershirt and a thick fleece hoodie, his heavy down jacket already tossed aside...

Curiously touching Yue Yi's ears and nose, Mountain Eagle found they weren't at all cold. He frowned and asked, "Aren't you cold?"

Yue Yi shook his head indifferently and said, "Not cold, I actually feel a bit hot..."

Mountain Eagle reached into Yue Yi's clothes again, noting his body was indeed a bit warm, yet he wasn't sweating.

This discovery startled Mountain Eagle, not out of concern for Yue Yi's health, but because he himself was like this.

Since regaining consciousness, his body had changed; in hot places his body accelerated heat dissipation, but in cold places, it locked in heat, making him not fear the cold at all.

Yet, when his son exhibited the sa situation, Mountain Eagle grew worried...

He knew his own problem arose from the laboratory virus, but his son hadn't been exposed, so why was this happening?

When Xiao Wan ca out with Griffin and others carrying a bowl of mixed vegetable salad, she saw Mountain Eagle had lifted Yue Yi's shirt, exposing his bare back...

She quickly stepped forward and punched Mountain Eagle's side angrily, saying, "Are you crazy, what if your son gets sick?"

Mountain Eagle chuckled awkwardly, putting Yue Yi's shirt down, tucking the hem into his pants...

He was very worried but couldn't show it overly, for fear of causing Xiao Wan anxiety.

Those who haven't experienced it can't imagine the suffering Mountain Eagle once faced, the ntal tornt of nightmares during the coma, and the recovery period's pervasive needle-like pain, indescribable.

He feared his son would experience the sa situation...

Watching the angry-faced Xiao Wan, Mountain Eagle smirked, patting his son's head, scolding, "Who told you to take off your clothes, put them back on..."

"Oh..."

Yue Yi, head hung low, picked up the down jacket from the ground and donned it, then sat sullenly on the stool, grappling with the barbeque in front of him.

Xiao Wan was about to reprimand him but rembered her recent reflection, she took a deep breath, and shoved the entire bowl of salad into Mountain Eagle's lap, saying, "He's your son, you handle this..."

Mountain Eagle chuckled, nodding repeatedly, saying, "I know, I know, I'll watch over him, if he doesn't listen, I'll spank him."

After saying that, Mountain Eagle stood up and gave Daria a aningful look, then pulled Yue Yi up, leading him into the cabin...

All three went up to the study on the second floor, where Mountain Eagle had Daria draw several tubes of blood from both himself and his son, placing them into a cooler...

"Call Donkey, have him fly the helicopter to send the blood samples to Anchorage Hospital for the most detailed testing."
