Chapter 39: The Dream (3)
"What the hell have you done?!"
"I've made it clear, I'm just telling Loren a new, more efficient way of meditating, which is enough to greatly strengthen his mental sensitivity and tolerance for the void - and that's what he asked, I just want to help him!"
"But you're going to kill him now!"
The agitated little wizard grabbed Isaac by the collar and slammed him against the wall. Although the other party was a head taller than him, his fierce momentum seemed to flip the height of the two people: "This is the fourth day, and he has been in a coma for four days!"www.biquge.info
"What's so strange about this, wanting to leave your subconscious dream is not an easy and pleasant thing!"
Although he was still desperately trying to defend himself, Isaac's pale expression and cold sweat on his forehead proved that he was not as confident as he appeared.
Lying in bed, Loren had been in a coma for four days, and although his breathing and heartbeat were normal, there was no sign of consciousness all the time - according to the wizard, his consciousness had not yet returned to his body from his meditative state, and it was clear that Loren was just a simple "living dead".
On the first day of discovering Loren unconscious in the library, the little wizard had few doubts—while it was indeed risky to venture into the void, it was an essential step for any wizard, even if he majored in alchemy.
But the next day, when Loren still showed no signs of waking up, Ain Rand realized that something didn't seem right, and then he learned the "truth" from Isaac's mouth!
"Now tell me, what is it going to take to get him back?!"
"Have you never studied the occult, or do you know nothing about the Void?
Isaac shook off the little wizard's hand, and his expression changed somewhat: "And if you really regard him as a friend, then why do you distrust him so much?"
"I ......" The little wizard was speechless for a moment, and took two steps back, his expression a little overwhelmed: "I'm just, I'm just worried about ......"
"There's nothing to worry about, he's also my friend. Isaac sighed and looked at Loren, who was still unconscious, "He was able to parse high-level spells in only one month, and he also completed the lightsaber spells that I didn't complete, so a small journey into the void wasn't a difficult task for him." ”
"You didn't do that spell?" Ain froze.
"Ninety-nine percent of it was me. Isaac rolled his eyes, "But he ...... Helped me solve the most difficult step - I know I can be annoying sometimes, but I'm not shameless enough to take other people's work as my own!"
Ain was silent, why did he care so much about this wandering knight named Loren Turin? Is it just because he was friends with him? Of course, not only that, this guy may really have some secrets, but as long as he sees him next to him, he will be very relieved and relaxed.
He seems to care more and more about this guy, and even the little wizard himself doesn't know why. But when I saw that the guy who was confident and often lied to himself was still unconscious, he still pursed his lips nervously.
"Apprentices, get out!"
Mentor?!
The black-robed wizard suddenly appeared behind the two men, and before they could be surprised, they were pushed out of the corridor by Dalton, and then the door closed with a bang.
And now, only Dalton, who had just returned, and Loren, who was unconscious, were left in the room.
The black-robed wizard slowly walked to the side of the bed, and glanced at it with a cold eye—normal breathing and heartbeat, unresponsive limbs, exactly the signs that any wizard trapped in the void would have.
The corners of Dalton's mouth curled up mockingly, but the smile looked even creepier than the ghost's. The wand in his hand was pressed against the center of Loren's forehead:
"Loren Turin, if you think you can fool me with your clumsy tricks, then you don't need to wake up again. ”
"Yes, Mentor. ”
A smile slipped across his lips as Loren slowly opened his eyes, and it took a while for his vision to return to normal and focus on that stiff face. Slowly allow your body to wake up.
"I just rushed back, so don't talk nonsense with me. Dalton's tone wasn't good: "When?"
"Last night - about seven hours ago. Loren honestly replied that there was no point in lying in front of him: "But it may take a little time to fully recover." ”
Loren knew very well that his condition was not good at the moment - his mental strength was severely overdrawn, and he still had slight hallucinations in his vision. Of course, the most serious thing is that my consciousness has not been converted from the dream, and I cannot fully distinguish the difference between reality and dream.
Of course, the benefits are not without it, his spiritual hall has obviously "broadened", and the pressure accumulated in the void is like a grinding stone, polishing himself from beginning to end. As long as you recover slowly, you will far surpass your previous self.
Dalton's eyes narrowed into slits, and he was somewhat surprised that the apprentice was able to escape the temptation of the void and remain awake in his subconscious dreams.
"How much time do you need?"
"Three days. Loren didn't hesitate: "But if you need it, I'll be ready in two days." ”
"For four days, I want you to be in the best shape and ready for anything. Dalton's tone was equally unmistakable: "After four days, go to Gumber and find anything you can find." ”
Dalton had apparently discovered something, otherwise he wouldn't have been in such a hurry...... Loren guessed in his heart, but his sluggish spirit made him unable to calm down and think slowly, and even as long as he shook slightly, he would feel the pain of something about to blow up.
Loren lowered his head involuntarily, two fingers on his temples, gasping for breath - even if his innate trait was resistant enough to the Void, it didn't mean that it could be avoided entirely. Even because one's spirit and matter are completely inseparable, this torment will act directly on the body.
With a cold snort, Dalton directly threw a bottle of alchemy potion to Loren, the light blue liquid in the transparent glass bottle, the cold touch almost made him throw it out directly.
"Sedatives - can temporarily numb your pain. The black-robed wizard said without emotion: "Half an ounce can relieve pain, one ounce can completely anesthetize your nerves, if you use two ounces...... You won't be conscious when you die. ”
"Is this an advance payment?" asked Loren, smiling as he endured the pain.
"You can't buy five ounces if you sell it, let alone a bottle. The black-robed wizard's tone was full of disdain, and he turned and slammed the door.
Caressed the delicate glass bottle, then carefully put it away. Loren is not willing to use this kind of good thing now, it is something that can save lives in a critical moment.
The headache eased slightly, and as if he suddenly remembered something, Loren lifted the bandage that was tied to his right wrist, and the strange serpentine rune was still in its place.
Really...... Asriel's guy was still alive, and Loren had a sneer on his face. He really thought too much, how could he die so easily?
Maybe it's a little hindsight, but I'm probably really hit by something like an evil god, and I don't seem to be going to let go of my intentions easily.
As for what the other party will let him do, what kind of means will he use to coerce and lure himself, and throw himself into what dangerous situation...... Loren didn't really care too much about that.
"There's no way I'm going to say no anyway, so whatever!"
