Chapter 16 Hotels
The city center is more than 20 kilometers away from the dry and dry mountains.
Karina walked into a hotel in the most prosperous part of the street, pulled out a forged ID card and made a room card, and was led by a waitress through the hallway to her room.
When the waitress closed the door and left, she kicked off her boots and lay on her back on the white futon, staring intently at the crystal lamp hanging from the ceiling. After a while, I took out my phone and pressed it on, looked at the time and put it back.
Until the phone rings.
Karina stood up and let out a sigh of relief when she saw the incoming call on her phone.
Soon after, there was a knock on the door, and Karina frowned slightly at the first sight of Lucy when she opened the door, it was the first time she had seen Lucy so badly injured. Although there was no bleeding anymore, judging from the large torn wounds on his exposed skin, it was obvious that he had been injured head-on by Jag's suspected atmospheric squeezing ability. In particular, his right hand was unusually twisted and hung down, and the skin was open, and the bones inside could be clearly seen.
Following Karina's nervous eyes, Lucy glanced at his shrugging right hand: "This, it seems to be temporarily abolished, and it can't be used." ”
Then he staggered to the sofa in the room, and sighed: "I miscalculated this time, I didn't expect to provoke that kind of old monster, and I almost couldn't come back...... But the good news is that it's all worth it. ”
He was about to say something, but as soon as he approached the sofa, he stumbled and passed out.
-------------------
By the time Lucy woke up, it was almost evening, and he could see the blood-red sunset through the window. Looking around, Karina was nowhere to go, and he was the only one in the room.
He subconsciously got up from the bed, and found that his right hand had almost recovered, and the wounds all over his body had been healed, except for the soreness of his whole body.
Did Karina do it...... Lucy thought to himself, and then he saw the door open, and the girl came in with the dining cart.
"Are you awake?" The corners of Karina's mouth rose and she pushed the food cart in front of him, "I got someone to make your favorite grilled cod, and pudding." ”
Lucy lifted the lid and smiled back, "Thank you, have I been in a coma until now?" ”
"Well, I've almost dealt with your injuries, but it's just ......" The smile on Karina's face disappeared, and she stopped talking, "I can't feel the thoughts in your body!" ”
She sat down next to Lucy and asked worriedly, "Do you know what's going on?" ”
Because of the close distance, the faint fragrance of the girl's body came, Lucy picked up a glass of red wine casually, swayed it gently, and watched the bright red wine hanging on the wall of the cup and slowly sliding down: "Don't worry about that, it's the price of one of my abilities, and I will be forced to enter a state of extinction within a month from now on." ”
"It's just that I originally promised to arrest that fugitive with you, but now it looks like I'm going to break the appointment."
Karina shook her head: "That's not in a hurry, I can handle it alone, but you...... You can't use it for a month, if you meet an enemy...... Do you want me to be with you? ”
Lucy pursed his lips, a little unaccustomed to the current atmosphere, and drank the red wine: "Even if I can't use it, I'm not something that those wastes can deal with, besides, I've already called Johnny, and he will send someone to pick me up in a few days." ”
"By the way, I actually want to tell you when I go down the mountain......" He thought about it, asked the other party to come to the mobile phone, and handed it over after entering a number in it: "You are beating the enemy Hakka puppet, I will probably use it after ten years, so during this period, if there is any trouble that is difficult to solve and you can't contact me, just call this number!" ”
He added: "That's my uncle's number, you just have to say it's me...... Friends are fine! ”
Karina took the phone with a smile: "Is this a meeting with parents?" ”
"Don't overthink it, I just don't want you to die before my plan is implemented." Lucy replied quietly. A hint of cunning flashed in Karina's eyes, and she took the initiative to change the subject: "Can you tell me about the process of your battle with that old man?" ”
"It's boring," recalls Lucie, biting into a piece of roasted and tender cod meat, "and the old man has reached the point of simplifying the complex, and whatever you do, he'll just slap him in the face and force it to break the trick." ”
"There is nothing to analyze about his telekinetic ability, that is, to crush the enemy with a huge and unparalleled telekinesis. Whatever ability the enemy uses, as long as it is within his sight, he can shoot them all into flies. ”
Thinking of the battle with Jaeg during the day, Lucy was a little distracted: "I have never seen anyone whose thoughts can reach such a strong level, and they are still condensed, as if they are ...... substance."
"My current mind is far inferior to his, no matter what kind of mind ability I use, it will be useless, I can only rely on that trick to escape......"
"It's hard to imagine how long it took him to get to that level......"
"Speaking of which, I should focus on improving my mastery of the various application techniques of my mental ability. Hard, Weekly, Flowing, Hard...... I never understood the essence of these skills, but I learned them in general. In addition, there is still a lot of room for improvement in my physical development, as can be seen from the puppet hand, as my physical fitness increases, the more powerful the puppet hand controls......"
He slowly fell into deep thought, and the food on his plate and the girl beside him were all forgotten by him.
"If the mind qi is the water in the pool, then the body is the pool that determines the water storage capacity, and the larger the pool, the more water it can hold...... In the future, you can put a lot of effort into physical exercise. ”
"Those plundered abilities, except for some of them that are useful to me, the rest are burdensome and can only occupy my energy. Only a few abilities are needed to cope with different environments, and the excess can be given up and the applicable abilities can be thoroughly understood. ”
"Well~ There are still four months left before the hunter exam in January next year, maybe you can set a goal, even if the mental power is unsealed in a month, you won't use it, and only rely on your physical strength to pass the trial? I can't even achieve a unit of measurement like Leoli, so there's no reason why I can't do it. ”
"I hope that my lovely uncle will invite Nitro as I expected, whether or not he can complete [it] depends on the hunter exam this time!"
After maliciously giving Leorian the title of "unit of measurement", Lucy finally came to his senses, and the silver cod on his plate was already cold, and only Karina, who was beside him, stared at him with a happy expression.
Lucy was a little hairy by her: "Why are you looking at me like this?" ”
"No," the corners of Karina's mouth curled, "I just think it's cute that you think about things seriously!" ”
"Whatever you like." Lucy ignored her teasing, got up and walked to the window, closed his eyes, and let the night breeze blow across his face.
Jege, I hope I'll be able to meet you in ten years' time.
When the time comes, it will definitely surprise you!
