"You've really decided?" In the hospital, the frog-faced old man looked at the young man with a determined expression in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh, "That thing is ......"

"Whatever it was, I decided to give it a try." Qing Gong's face was indifferent, but his gaze was as firm as iron, "The current situation does not allow me to heal my injuries." ”

"Hey." The old man looked at Qing Gong's face in a daze, and finally sighed silently, "Come with me." ”

Qing Gong stood up, smiled lightly under Mikoto's slightly worried gaze, and slowly followed the old man.

The soul chasing in the underworld walked very slowly, and the Qing Palace couldn't go fast, so the two of them walked slowly towards the basement floor of the hospital one after the other.

On the basement floor is an idle ward, as well as the warehouse of the hospital, the old man came to the front of a warehouse, verified the palm print and walked in, and the Qing Palace also hurriedly followed.

The inside of the warehouse is very empty, and some are just large shelves, on which some medicines or some materials are placed, and it looks like a place like a pile of clutter, and almost no one usually comes here.

The old man walked slowly to the center of the warehouse and stopped in front of a shelf in the middle.

"This place, I didn't expect to come a second time." The old man shook his head with a sigh, pulled out a pile of tattered books in the middle of the shelf, and set it aside. Underneath the book is a blank space in the shape of a book that looks like it has been rubbed by someone.

"What's special about this material is that it doesn't get dirty." The old man laughed self-deprecatingly, "That's why I put a bunch of books on it...... All right. ”

Before Qing Gong could react, the old man's hand had already lightly pressed on the empty space.

There was a soft click, and under Qing Gong's stunned expression, the space slowly opened to the sides, revealing a high-tech electronic screen and a button that looked very old.

"That's what little secret I have left." Seeing that the electronic screen lit up, the frog-faced old man shook his head with a smile, and casually clicked a few times on the blank space on the electronic screen, "Let's go in." ”

As the old man's words fell, Qing Gong suddenly felt a shock under his feet, and then, the floor tiles under his feet suddenly trembled slightly, and then, like an elevator, slowly descended, and the two stepped on the same floor tile, slowly disappeared on the ground, and as the two descended, the hollow above their heads quietly closed again.

"This is ......" After about a few tens of seconds, Qing Gong felt a shock under his feet, and the two of them descended to the bottom, but it was pitch black all around, and nothing could be seen, and at the same time, a strange sense of familiarity quietly floated in Qing Gong's heart.

This feeling......

With the murmur of the Qing Palace, suddenly, a little light lit up in the dark space, and then, like a star falling, one bright spot after another lit up, slowly dispelling the darkness. When the Qing Palace saw everything around him clearly, Rao is heart couldn't help but exclaim softly.

This is an extremely large space, and the countless "stars" lit up around are actually warning lights for each device to start, in the space, there are all kinds of equipment, and it looks a little similar to its own OLET base, but with the eyes of the Qing Palace, it can also be seen that most of the equipment here is medical.

What surprised him was not the devices, but the huge object in the middle of the space.

It was a huge glass cylinder, which looked like a huge inverted test tube, with a diameter of more than four meters and a length of more than ten meters.

This thing ......!

"Aresta?!" Qing Gong's eyes widened, and he looked at the old man behind him incredulously, his tongue was slightly knotted, "Could it be ....... ...... that legend? ”

This huge test tube,Except for the absence of blood-red liquid in it,It's just the same as the windowless building.,Aresta Aresta, the president of the school city. The thing that Crowley had been soaking in was exactly the same!

"Legends?" The old man smiled and shook his head, "Sort of." ”

"I did save that man." A look of remembrance flashed in the old man's eyes, "That was decades ago......"

Decades ago,He practiced medicine in the countryside of England.,By chance, he rescued a middle-aged man who was hunted down by a British organization.,At that time, he saved the middle-aged man.,And took him to escape from the United Kingdom.,Come to Japan.,And that middle-aged man,It's the Aresta who later established the school city.,And served as its president.。

"I've worked on a particular part of the theory." The Soul Chaser of the Underworld smiled faintly, looked at the Qing Palace, and said softly, "According to those theories, I have developed a 'life support device', which is the one that is now placed in the windowless building, and that is also my only successful experimental product. ”

Qing Gong nodded, secretly wondering if that part of the 'special theory' was magic from the magic side.

"But no one knew that I had a prototype of the test." The old man looked at Qing Gong and smiled slightly, "Although it can't have that effect, I have developed another device through the same principle." ”

"With your current physical condition, you can't do any strenuous exercise at all." The old man sighed, "Even a big move can cause the newly connected and fragile blood vessels in your body to rupture, so if you insist on going, this thing can help you." ”

"This device can comprehensively strengthen your existing physique, including the blood vessels, tendons and even bones in your body." The old man whispered, "so that you won't be unable to move forward because you can't exercise vigorously." ”

"That's great!" Qing Gong was overjoyed when he heard this, "I need this now." ”

There is nothing wrong with his abilities, it's just that he was stabbed by Rin after breaking through the Absolute Realm before, and if there is a way to restore his physical condition, there will be no problem.

"Hear me out first." The old man waved his hand at him, "This thing doesn't heal you directly. ”

"The principle on which it strengthens is a special drug." The old man said softly, "By entering the body, to provide a layer of 'membrane' for your body, so that the strengthened organs can withstand greater pressure, so as to play a role in the purpose of strengthening, so that your blood vessels can withstand your strenuous exercise, but ......" Speaking of this, the old man's face became serious, "If after that layer of 'membrane' reaches the limit, your blood vessels will once again be unable to withstand the load of your vigorous exercise and suddenly strengthen, it will be very dangerous." ”

"Uh......" Qing Gong scratched his head in embarrassment, "Can you say it succinctly?" ”

"In other words, it's time-bound." The old man glanced at Qing Gong angrily, "If you don't come back here when the time of strengthening is at its limit, then your blood vessels will explode again!" You'll be dead then. ”

"That's right." Qing Gong smiled indifferently, "So, when will it start?" ”

"What?" The old man was obviously a little surprised, "You still want to go?" ”

The meaning of what he had just said was to make every last effort to tell him about the danger of this matter, and to hope that he would give up this dangerous thing.

"Uncle, you know me." Qing Gong raised the corners of his mouth at the Soul Chaser of the Underworld, "If there is no hope for this matter, it will be fine, and now that there is hope, it is even more impossible for me to give up." ”

"There, there are people I want to rescue." Qing Gong slowly raised his head, looked at the 'starry sky' above his head, and said softly.

Looking at the calm expression of the young man in front of him, the old man was silent for a long time, and finally sighed silently.

......

Above, in the office of the Soul Chaser.

Mikoto was anxiously walking back and forth in the corridor, and Misaka Chayan and Misaka Yuyun next to her were sitting quietly on the bench next to them, waiting quietly, in stark contrast to her sister.

At this moment, there was a soft click, and the door opened, and Maikoto looked back sharply, but her eyes suddenly widened.

"Clear ...... Qing Palace! Meiqin looked at the figure of the young man in white behind her in astonishment, "You...... Are you alright? ”

"Don't worry." Qing Gong's face was slightly pale, but his eyes were still bright, and he chuckled, and his white robe was still spotless, as before.

"Let's go."
