111: Defensive Shield
Vavinia looked at Fang Yun's joyful gaze, the corner of her mouth slightly raised.
"Hehe, didn't expect it, right? I purposely woke up a bit earlier today, just so I could see you this morning."
Fang Yun helped Vavinia stand straight, squeezed her small hand, and said happily:
"Thank you, Vavinia. I'm very happy."
Upon hearing this, the smile on Vavinia's face became even brighter.
"This little thing is nothing."
"Oh, right. When you go out to do errands, remember to be careful."
"Although you are very strong, after all, as an old saying in China goes, 'caution is the parent of safety'."
Fang Yun nodded as he listened to Vavinia's instructions, a sense of emotion rising in his heart.
"Okay, I will definitely be careful."
Valentine and Toke, who had been force-fed a mouthful of public display of affection, could no longer stand it.
Valentine walked a couple of steps towards Fang Yun and Vavinia, and coughed:
"Ahem. Let's just say, it's time to eat."
Vavinia's cheeks immediately turned red when she heard her brother's reminder, but she still held Fang Yun's hand and didn't let go.
"Fang Yun, you two go to the First Dining Hall to eat."
"Auntie Kassan made breakfast for the transport team, I'll eat there, so I won't go to the First Dining Hall with you."
Fang Yun nodded after hearing this.
"I remember Auntie Kassan is the deputy captain of the transport team, right?"
"You woke up a bit early today, and the cold wind might give you a stomach ache. Remember to rub your stomach when you go to Auntie Kassan's place for breakfast."
"Also, when you go out to purchase supplies, you also need to be careful."
"Here, wait for me a moment, I'll go back to my tent to get you a defensive shield."
Fang Yun instructed Vavinia, then suddenly remembered that he could give her some protection.
Fang Yun motioned for Vavinia and the other two to wait for him, then released Vavinia's small hand and jogged back to his tent.
About a minute later, Fang Yun emerged from the tent with a defensive shield of the same model as his own, and ran back.
The defensive shield comes with a fixing device.
Fang Yun walked to Vavinia's side, held up the defensive shield with his hand, and installed it on Vavinia's right shoulder.
After Fang Yun finished installing it, Vavinia blinked her moist large eyes and asked curiously:
"Fang Yun, what is this thing?"
"Oh, this, this is an energy shield."
"When I was blown up by the bomb trap set by the Black Hand settlement in the cave before, I used this kind of shield to protect myself."
Vavinia's eyes widened instantly when she heard Fang Yun's words.
"Ah? We all felt the vibration outside the cave at that time, and you were hit by an explosion of that magnitude?!"
Valentine and Toke were also shocked and spoke up one after another:
"I thought you used some method to detonate the bomb remotely, I didn't expect you to take it head-on."
"It's really you, it seems I still underestimated your strength."
Vavinia was surprised for a few seconds, then as if remembering something, she reached out and felt Fang Yun's body up and down.
"You don't have any internal injuries, do you?"
Fang Yun saw Vavinia's worried eyes, and with a mix of amusement and helplessness, he grabbed her small hand that was feeling around everywhere.
"Look at me now, jumping around lively, do I look like I have internal injuries?"
After hearing Fang Yun's words, Vavinia carefully looked him up and down, then breathed a sigh of relief.
"Phew~. It's good that you're fine."
Fang Yun smiled slightly.
"You're just worried and confused."
"Let's not talk about this. Anyway, now you know how powerful this defensive shield is, right?"
Vavinia nodded, and just as she was about to speak, she was interrupted by Fang Yun.
"Just take this defensive shield with peace of mind, no refusal allowed. This way, I'll be much more relieved when you go out to purchase supplies."
After hearing Fang Yun's words, Vavinia looked at his unquestionable expression, and had no choice but to swallow the words that were already on the tip of her tongue.
"Okay, okay."
Fang Yun squeezed Vavinia's small hand, revealing a satisfied smile.
Just then, Valentine reached out and patted Fang Yun's shoulder.
"Ahem. Fang Yun. Do you have any more of these shields?"
Fang Yun turned his head and looked at Valentine, who was leaning close to him, and found that his face was full of "flattery".
Fang Yun's eyes rolled around, then he raised an eyebrow and said with a mischievous smile:
"Shields, no more."
"But. I have a lot of medical supplies on me, and I also know a little about medicine."
"So as long as I'm here, you don't need to be afraid, go ahead and fight, I guarantee you won't die."
Valentine's mouth twitched when he heard Fang Yun say this, and the expression on his face immediately became a little disgusted.
"No more shields? You're wasting my feelings, let's go, let's go."
"You two stop being lovey-dovey here too. Fang Yun, come with me, Sister goes to Auntie Kassan's place, everyone hurry up and eat, or the food will be cold in a while."
The transport team that purchases supplies goes out twice a week, once for living supplies and once for military supplies.
Today at 8 o'clock, the transport team was going to depart to purchase living supplies.
Vavinia wanted to spend more time with Fang Yun, and Fang Yun thought the same.
However, after realizing that the strength on his shoulder was getting stronger and stronger, Fang Yun could only reluctantly release Vavinia's small hand.
In an instant, the warm feeling from his hands disappeared, replaced by the slight coolness brought by the morning breeze.
Valentine pouted and dragged Fang Yun towards the First Dining Hall.
Fang Yun was forced to leave with Valentine and Toke, and as he walked, he kept looking back at Vavinia.
"Vavinia, be careful. I'll be back tonight."
Vavinia stood in place and didn't follow.
"Okay, I know."
Fang Yun's figure became more and more distant, until his figure was completely covered by the tents, only then did Vavinia lower her constantly waving arm.
A cool wind blew from a distance, carrying the unique crispness and dryness of the early morning, sweeping over the backs of the tents, picking up fine grains of sand, and swirling past Vavinia.
Vavinia was silent for two seconds, then hugged her arms and rubbed them twice.
"The morning wind is a bit cold."
"..."
"Alright, Vavinia, cheer up, it's time to go to Auntie Kassan's place."
Vavinia gave herself a pep talk, lifted her spirits, and turned around to prepare to go to Kassan's place for breakfast.
Suddenly, a message popped up in the communication channel:
"I will definitely be back tonight." (Fang Yun)
Vavinia's footsteps paused, then returned to normal.
Vavinia continued to walk towards Kassan's tent, but, unlike before, there was now a smile on her face.
