Disabled and Deficient Squad

Upon hearing that powerful voice, Old Man Lu's face immediately darkened.

He corrected him with a stern face, "Call me Second Brother!"

Li Yao was shocked.

Who's that woman? Is she of such a high generation? Old Man Lu always refers to himself as his Second Uncle, acting like a grandfather to everyone he meets. He never expected to be someone's second brother here? Li Yao looked up.

Immediately,

A pair of thighs that you could play with for a lifetime came into view.

Okay,

The woman was standing on the stairs, and from Li Yao's perspective, the first thing he saw was a pair of legs that were impeccable. Even if those legs were a little more voluptuous or a little less slender, it wouldn't have given Li Yao any strange thoughts. However, as his gaze continued to rise, all he saw was a pair of legs, which was quite alarming.

When Li Yao saw that woman, he had only one thought in his mind: Holy crap!

Wow, what a tall woman! I'd estimate she's at least 1.79 meters tall, almost as tall as Li Yao! But what's most amazing is her pair of perfectly shaped long legs; it's like her legs start right below her chest.

Even in late autumn,

She was also wearing denim shorts, a black tube top, and a reddish-brown coat draped over her shoulders, giving her a carefree and unrestrained look. Her long, tousled hair was casually tied back, and a smile graced her pretty face, but her eyes were cold and stern.

She is a very free-spirited woman.

However, most of Li Yao's attention was drawn to her left arm.

Her left arm was missing from the elbow down, and the severed limb was wrapped in white gauze, which looked particularly jarring.

Old Man Lu had asked him for three vials of Healing Spirit Liquid, so this must be one of those three. Li Yao had thought their injuries would be severe, but he hadn't expected them to be so serious as to result in permanent disability.

The older woman came down the stairs, saying, "Oh, we're from the same generation, why are you pretending?" She pushed aside Old Man Lu, moved closer to Li Yao, and said with a smile, "Young man, you're young and promising, and handsome too. Do you have a girlfriend? If so, would you mind having another one?"

Li Yao: "???"

His face immediately darkened.

Turning to look at Old Man Lu, I saw Old Man Li, who had been pushed aside, stretching and exclaiming dramatically, "Oh dear, old people get tired easily. I'm going to take a nap."

Then,

The old man then tucked the Dragon-Snake Staff under his arm and slipped away...

He slipped away...

Only the waiter, Yingying Monster, Li Yao, and the new older sister remained at the bar.

The older sister Yingying Monster behind the bar, "Lingling, make me a Long Island Iced Tea, quick!"

Wang Meiling said coyly, "Sister Yan, you can't drink alcohol because your injury hasn't healed yet."

The older sister leaned in and gave Wang Meiling a sharp tap on the forehead. "You think I can't say what I want?"

"Waaaaah!"

Wang Meiling crouched down, clutching her head in pain...

Haha, so cute!

Li Yao was itching to bully him.

After rubbing her forehead for a while, Wang Meiling went to mix drinks—Sister Yan's methods are really too ruthless! So scary~ Waaah~ I feel so wronged~ When the Long Island Iced Tea was served, the eldest sister used her only remaining arm to hold up the glass in her hand and said, "My name is Feng Liyan. Thank you for saving me. Old Lu told me everything."

Seeing Li Yao staring at his severed arm, Feng Liyan laughed and said, "What are you thinking about?"

Li Yao pursed his lips and said, "It must be very inconvenient."

Feng Liyan licked her lips and said meaningfully, "Yes..."

Li Yao: "..."

Are you implying that you're single?

Sorry, I'm a respectable person, no dates!

Li Yao picked up his wine glass, his face dark, and drank it all in one gulp.

He admired Feng Liyan's magnanimity, but he was also somewhat overwhelmed by the other party's roguish nature.

Feng Liyan took a big gulp of the mixed drink, smacked her lips, and seemed to find it very refreshing. She said, "Since you're here, let the three of us thank you together."

After saying that,

Feng Liyan called upstairs, "Old He, Xiao Zhao, the boss next door is coming over. Come down and say thank you."

soon,

There was a commotion upstairs; one footstep was heavy, the other unsteady, clearly indicating that neither had fully recovered from their injuries.

Not long after,

Accompanied by a cough, a man of about thirty years old came down the stairs. He had an ordinary demeanor and appearance, and was wearing a shirt and jeans. As soon as he came down the stairs, he came over and shook hands with Li Yao: "You must be the boss next door? Thank you so much, thank you so much."

Li Yao was a little confused as the other person shook his hand.

Are there really such down-to-earth characters among the Wallfacers? And then...

A young girl came down the stairs. She looked like a high school student. She was pretty and had shoulder-length short hair. She had a distant air about her and little expression on her face. Her left eye and head were wrapped in bandages... She was blind in her left eye.

She approached Li Yao, bowed, and said softly, "Thank you."

For some reason, Li Yao thought of Rei Ayanami from Neon Genesis Evangelion.

They are equally delicate and frail, equally aloof and distant, yet they possess a deep-seated resilience that inexplicably evokes pity.

Li Yao's gaze shifted between the three people.

My feelings are a bit complicated.

One had lost his left arm, another his left eye, and the only man who looked relatively healthy was always sickly and coughed occasionally.

Li Yao had never participated in battles between supernatural beings.

Through these three people, Li Yao could imagine that the battle must have been extremely fierce.

But ordinary people will never know these things; their achievements are destined to remain hidden.

As Old Man Lu said: This group of people are truly fighting in darkness, carrying the burden of light.

It's a bit silly, but respectable.

Li Yao got off the bar stool and bowed sincerely to the three of them. "I should thank you. Thank you."

Thank you for guarding the space between darkness and light, thank you for carrying the lights of countless homes as you move forward.

Thank you for facing the danger in silence...

Thanks.

The atmosphere was somewhat silent. Old He smiled sheepishly and scratched the back of his head with a grin. Xiao Zhao sat quietly in the corner, not saying a word, like an emotionless puppet.

Only Feng Liyan's drinking voice was exceptionally clear:

"Actually, we're considered lucky. Many of our comrades fell on the battlefield and couldn't get up. Some were even worse off; their bodies were eaten. It was truly tragic."

Those outcasts,

They eat people.

Hearing Feng Liyan say this, Li Yao felt heavy-hearted.

Something was stirring within him, as if urging him to do something, to say something...

Before Li Yao could speak, Feng Liyan added, "Actually, you don't need to be so serious. How should I put it? It's just a rather special job. For certain reasons, our identities cannot be disclosed, but we do receive stipends and enjoy many privileges."

Feng Liyan put down her wine glass, pointed at herself, and laughed loudly, "Me, the privileged class! The kind who can drive so fast without getting a ticket, hahahaha~"

However, driving will become less convenient in the future.
