"Kroll Kroll"

Outside the room, Master Heber's voice pulled me back from my fugue state. The old lady must have been impatient, I thought, and quickly helped Xavier to fold the quilt, and then left the room quickly.

As soon as I got out of the door, I was bumped into something head-on.

"Oh George, my little boy, let go of that bad boy and come here."

Well, the guy who was fluttering in my face was the owl raised by Master Heber, her only darling, her little girl.

I grabbed George by the wings, lifted him up, and threw him into Master Herb's arms.

Mage Herb held a piece of torn cloth in his hand, on the cloth

On the cloth is the emblem of the Ryan Mercenary Regiment.

"This" I stared at the piece of fabric, and some uneasy feelings suddenly welled up in my heart.

"George told me that there were two men dressed in clothes with such insignia looking for something outside the forest." The owl stood on Mage Heber's shoulder, caressed by Master Heber.

"If there is such an insignia on the clothes, then the people outside the forest should be the partners of my mercenary group." I clutched the torn piece of fabric tightly: "They came here, and they don't know what happened. ”

"Master Heber, can you take care of Xavier for me, is that guy inside?" I don't have time to ask her why she said that on the parchment back then, but Xavier had to settle in first.

"Are you going to meet the mercenary group," Mage Herb asked.

"Yes, I'll take a look, if there's anything important, I'll deal with it directly, you know, Xavier's current situation, it's impossible to follow me around, or stay with you, I'm more at ease." I begged Master Heber with a shy face, but I barely folded my hands.

Master Herb scratched me out of the corner of his eye, and then snorted coldly, "Get out of here, don't get in my way." ”

"Then please, just give him Eve's recuperation first." I didn't care about her arrogant attitude, and as I talked to her, I walked out the door.

Naturally, it was another cold snort and George who flew out to lead the way for me.

After walking for a short time, George and I reached the edge of the forest.

Through the pale blue film of water, I saw two colors of fighting qi smashing towards the forest, but they were all bounced back by the water film, and the screams continued for a while.

I spotted a gap and walked through the water film to the outside, right in front of Sean and Biden.

"Colo" Sean saw me first, but after the surprise, he showed a look of almost crying, and even calling my name was a little grief-stricken.

"What are you doing," I began, but was interrupted by Biden

"I've finally found you, the Count is injured and in critical condition, and needs your healing."

Earl Ryan

How is Ryan injured and sick enough that I need them to come all the way to me, my heart seems to be suspended by a rope all at once, suspended in mid-air, without a fulcrum, and strangled to breathlessness,

"Where the hell did he get hurt," I asked after a brief blank in my mind.

"It's in a village not far from here, it's relatively secluded, and it guarantees temporary security." Biden quickly picked up the burden that fell on the ground, and said anxiously: "Fortunately, I found you, we don't know how to get in at all, don't say anything, come with us." ”

"Okay." I nodded, "Tell me how you got hurt." ”

"More on the road."

It turned out that after Ryan separated from me, he went back to investigate the Lucas mercenary group in detail. It turned out that the Lucas mercenary group seemed to have some connection with the black magic village incident he had dealt with before, so he took people to the junction of the Western Continent and the Northern Forest to investigate carefully.

Who knew that not long after he arrived here, he fell into a coma, his whole body was hot, and he still muttered from time to time.

With nothing to do with the accompanying healing mage, the others had to search for me, who was said to have traveled in the Boreal Forest, in order to save Ryan.

"Is it all of a sudden, like this, without any warning?"

"Yes, without warning. We had found out that a large amount of the Lucas mercenary regiment's funds were used to fund the study of the dark arts, and we came here that day to sneak in and take a look, who knew that something like this happened to the Earl. ”

I frowned, and my heart was even more confused.

Could it be that it was poisoned or that Eve's potion had side effects that I didn't know about

With such nervousness and frustration, we finally hurried to this small town called Bercy.

Bercy didn't look like a bustling town or rather a desolate one, with few vendors selling their wares on the streets.

I followed Biden and the others into a simple but very large earthen house, and as soon as I entered the house, I saw Ryan, whose face was burning and he was asleep.

"Ryan" I hurriedly walked over, and I didn't have time to say hello to the mercenary group mates who were surrounding him.

He was covered in heat, sweat dripping down his hair, and the pillow was already wet. His brow furrowed, his teeth chattering, and he looked in pain.

I reached out and pulled his clenched hand away, then held it, pumping healing elements into his body, hoping to get a rough idea of what was going on with him.

After some inspection, I was surprised to find that Ryan's vindictive energy cycle seemed to be different from before.

He has dozens of times more loops than others.

A large amount of abundant Dou Qi traveled through his meridians that had been widened by Eve's potion, but it was blocked by one Dou Qi cycle after another, and with each breakthrough of each cycle node, I could feel the Dou Qi in Ryan's body becoming more and more refined.

His current condition should be that the fighting spirit in his body is desperately trying to break through those cycle joints and overload and lead to zhì.

This can probably be said to be an evolution of the body, which can only rely on the strength of the fighter himself.

As a healing magician, there is really nothing you can do.

Perhaps, this is the real effect of Eve's potion

Realizing this, I felt a little relieved and put Ryan's hand down.

"Earl, how is he" Biden saw that I had finished my treatment, and a dusty face came over, and he stared at me nervously, as if I was going to say something like "Ryan can't do it", and he was going to fight with me.

"There have been some changes in his body, and it should be for the better." I explained: "This is similar to the advancement of vindictiveness, which can only be completed by himself, and all we can do is believe in him." ”

Biden was still very unwilling to hear me say this, and he punched the earthen wall next to the bed, panting as loudly as a cow.

Suddenly, he turned his head with a fierce look in his eyes: "Kolo, why aren't you nervous?"

"Why are you always so lukewarm to the Earl"

"He's like this now, you can still keep a calm face, like an irrelevant person"

Hearing such an accusation from Biden, I was stunned for a moment.

"Okay, Biden, didn't Kolo come in a hurry, don't you do this" Someone grabbed Biden and began to comfort him.

It suddenly became noisy, and I turned my head to look at Ryan's pained face, and suddenly felt very sad.

Actually, I'm also very anxious, but I really can't be as affectionate as them.

I can still calmly watch Ryan endure the torment of his physical evolution, and carefully weigh whether I can help him as a healing magician.

Is this my cousin who doesn't care about Ryan

I do not know

Obviously, he's my lover.

I responded to Biden's interrogation with silence, but there were several more shackles in my heart.

At night, they all left the earthen house in twos and threes, only Biden and Reiner stayed.

Although no larger conflict broke out between me and Biden, it was indeed a bit lukewarm and awkward.

Reiner slept first, and Biden and I stayed next to Ryan.

The candles in the room were dim, the wind blew the windows rattle, and Biden sat down and fell asleep on the table.

Seeing that he was sleeping soundly, I got up and walked slowly to Ryan's bedside.

He still frowned, his fingertips trembling.

I held his hand in vain, and I didn't know what it would do.

I'm really a useless healing mage, not only useless, but also causing a lot of trouble.

I don't know what Ryan took a fancy to me in the first place

I closed my eyes and felt so self-loathing like I had never felt like I had now
