Chapter 11 Choices
In a trance, it seemed that I was back in the green ocean, listening to the noisy sounds and watching the blurred shadows go back and forth. (Full-text novel reading, all in.1. (1. Countless faces appeared in front of me, but none of them could stay in memory. They kept talking and asking him questions, in language he understood, but for some reason they didn't understand what they were saying.
In the sea of green, time, space, and sensation are intertwined, turning into countless illogical fragments.
It's a suffocating world.
In an unbearable moment, he was like a fish stranded on the shore, desperately jumping for the last time. At the end of the rush, he finally broke through the sea level and plunged into a whole new world. The world was much more real, and as soon as he surfaced from the water, he saw a face. Unlike the world in the green sea, this face he remembers and is impressed. It's just that for a moment, I can't remember who it is. Before he could figure it out, he sank into the green sea again.
I don't know how long later, a sudden cold feeling woke him up from his slumber again! It was an instinct for danger, and with it was accompanied by a fear engraved in the depths of consciousness, as if some predator had put his teeth on his skin!
Unspeakable fear made him shiver, jumped with all his might, and then rushed out of the green sea in one fell swoop!
The delicate, emotionless face resurfaced in view, pale blue eyes staring at him.
"Helen?" When the sluggish mind finally found the name from memory, he also remembered that his name was Sue.
Su struggled to sit up, but his body, which had previously been able to give orders to certain cells individually, had completely disobeyed the command. A few places can still be sour and swollen, and most parts are not sensational at all.
"It's not bad to remember that I said that your brain wasn't irreparably damaged. Don't move! Helen stopped Sue from trying to sit up, and then lifted his head a little so that he could see what he was doing.
Hundreds of jΓΉ threads hung down from the platform above, connecting to Su's body, and the same number of tiny catheters** were slowly injected into the blood vessels of various parts of the body. At first glance, Sue almost turns into a monstrous with several jΓΉ wires and conduits.
There is no need to sense the body, and when he saw this scene, Su had an idea of his injury. However, from the sluggish memory, another thing came up, which made Su's face change greatly: "Helen, are you using the same medicine last time?" β
"Of course not." Helen's answer reassured Sue a little, and she was a little more optimistic about her injury. Last time she was seriously injured, those repair potions left Persephone in a huge debt and almost desperate.
Helen gently lowered Sue's head and said coldly, "Don't be too happy yet. I didn't use that medicine this time because Fanny couldn't afford it. And with her current financial situation, no one will lend her money unless she uses her own body as collateral. β
Su's pupils contracted suddenly, and the bones of her arms actually emitted a slight and dense crackling sound. However, Helen's attitude towards him has softened a little, and it is no longer as cold and gloomy as it had been at the beginning. Sue's tense body slowly relaxed, and now he couldn't do anything for Persephone, the most important thing was to heal the injury first. But the sensations coming from all over his body cast a shadow on his heart, and Su didn't know if he would be able to fully recover.
Helen stared at the screen next to her and said, "Your injury is very troublesome, only a little lighter than last time." If you want to fully recover, then you have to listen to me completely during this time, and no matter what I tell you to do, you can't compromise or disobey at all! If you can't, it's best to speak up now, and I'll stop treating you immediately. You should know that you don't need to have a disability anywhere! β
Su smiled bitterly and said, "Of course I understand this, why, you seem to distrust me very much?" β
Helen's voice was flat, but with a coldness that repelled people, and there was no anger to be heard, and no other emotion: "I can't trust you, just as you don't trust me and Fanny." β
In the case of Medirri, Sue really couldn't explain it, he just wanted to go to Judgment Town to have a look, and after noticing something unusual, he resolutely started this fight with no hope of survival.
In itself, he was indeed sorry for Persephone, especially after having a further relationship with her. Although, the process of this intimacy did not go exactly according to Sue's wishes.
After a pause, Sue still asked, "How is Medirri?" β
Looking at it from Sue's point of view, it seems that Helen has a sarcastic smile on her face, but it can't be heard from her voice: "There is news of her, but I will not sue you until your injuries are good enough to reach a certain level." β
In the face of Helen's obvious indifference, Sue knew that there was nothing to gain from her but to repair her injuries quietly. There were many things he didn't know, and he didn't even know how to show up in Helen's room, but now was not the time to rush. He was still extremely weak, and after saying so many words, his consciousness suddenly blurred, and he fell asleep.
During the treatment process in the following week, Su had a clear understanding of his injury. Helen was almost sleepless around him, and every day it took more than a dozen hours for large and small surgeries alone, as long as Sue opened his eyes, he would see Helen doing her best to repair his body. The largest operation was to repair the organs in the abdominal cavity, which lasted for five days. And in between major surgeries, Helen also had almost incalculable minor surgeries. After only a few days, Helen had lost her original luster, and the heavy dark circles under her eyes were nothing, and the bloodshot eyes and bloodless lips really reminded her of fatigue. In the process of gradually recovering his perceptual ability, Su also noticed a hint of excitement from Helen. It seems that her body has long been unable to support her, and she needs to rely on injection drugs to maintain high-intensity treatment.
Su had no way to express his gratitude, and his entire chest and abdomen were opened, and he didn't even have the ability to speak. The gradual recovery of FΓΉ's perceptual ability faithfully fed back the process of Helen's cutting and mending in his body, except for a slight pain, all other sensations were available, making Sue feel very weird and a little creepy.
A few days later, the vast surgical treatment finally ended, and after the last wound was dressed, Helen still had a brief coma, although supported by excitation and nutrients. A miniature healing machine floating in the chamber flew over and gave her an emergency injection before she slowly woke up.
For the rest of the day, Su Du could only lie quietly, covered with sprayed protective film. On the first day, he had the ability to walk on the ground, and then he met a very unexpected person, Peperos.
"How's Medirri?" After taking a seat in the only small garden in the entire underground hospital, Sue first asked about Medirri's condition.
Compared to Sue, who was covered in protective film, Peperos looked already recovering, and there was not even a single scar left on his exposed skin. Dressed in casual casual attire and with a murderous aura, she looked like a slightly melancholy young girl who had no contact with the innocent knife-wielding men in the Inquisition.
"Your Excellency has ...... Sleep. Peperos carefully chose the words and spoke slowly: "I am here to convey the will of His Majesty Lanaxis. The Empress means that when you have regained all your strength, she will arrange for you to meet Her Excellency Medirri. β
Su was silent for a moment before he asked lightly, "How did it become like this?" β
Peperos stood up and said, "When you see the Empress, you'll know the answer." But right now, I can't sue you for anything. When you regain your strength, tell me, and I will take you to the Empress, Helen has my contact information. β
Before leaving, Peperos suddenly turned around and said softly and quickly: "When you go to see the Empress, the stronger your ability, the better!" β
Sue just looked at her hands, her fingers long and pale, as if she hadn't heard her last words.
Wow!
The icy and powerful stream of water rushed against the white and delicate skin, stirring up a chain of pearl-like beads. Cold water just above freezing points firms the skin and sharpens the already sluggish consciousness again.
Helen pressed against the wall of the bathroom, and the icy water gushing in from all directions stopped. When she walked out of the bathroom, the excessive cold had already made Helen's lips glow grayish-purple. There was also a floor-to-ceiling mirror outside the bathroom, where Persephone would stand for a long time every time she went out of the bath, and Helen walked directly in front of the mirror without looking at it.
Helen's clothes are simple, without floral ornaments, and even her underwear is the simplest and most ancient style. But when putting on her underwear, Helen was stunned for a moment, looked at the underwear that was obviously oversized, and then tossed it aside, and took out a spare set of underwear to change into. She has a somewhat thin figure, with several scarlet pinholes on her left upper arm and inner thighs, which stand out against her snow-white skin. Helen removed the needle from the bracket and inserted it into her right inner thigh, injecting the liquid into her body, which had both nutritional and stimulant properties. Before the injection was finished, the strong power of the medicine added a touch of blood to Helen's face. By the time the clothes were dressed, Helen looked completely normal.
Through a long, deep hallway, down two floors, and through a security barrier, Helen entered a real room full of instruments. In the center of the chamber is a stubby, crooked spear, and the hologram simulates two people fighting, one of whom is Su, and the other is Gehrer, who is much stronger. In the video, Sue is holding a short spear and stabbing into Geller's chest in an extremely slow motion until the wound before and after the penetration appears.
There are eight light screens floating around, and the number of jΓΉ is refreshing like crazy.
Helen stood in front of the spear, frowning, scrutinizing the spear that she had seen countless times. In fact, it is very crude, and the spear shaft is actually made of three metal fences, and a military short blade is embedded at one end, which is used as a spear blade. In addition to being strong, the short spear has no workmanship and beauty at all. Moreover, it was twisted from the blade to the shaft of the spear due to the excessive force, and there was a distinct handprint at each end.
Helen's brows tightened as she silently estimated the amount of power needed to make these efforts, but she had built a dozen models, and each time the results she had obtained still far exceeded the maximum amount of power Sue could reach. Especially with a sharp weapon to cause such a huge wound, in fact, it also involves some high-level applications of power, but those are all abilities that can only occur when the strength is strengthened to the seventh order or above, obviously, Su is far from reaching this point.
After only half an hour of standing, Helen's face turned pale again. Not surprisingly, another built model was overturned. She didn't feel how frustrated, any research involving the human body was very difficult, and Sue had a lot more puzzles in her body than ordinary people.
After reconstructing a model, Helen threw the massive computational work to the brain, returned to the central room, and connected to Persephone's channel.
On the light screen, there is still a lot of war, but the difference is that the peaks are covered with snow, and it can be seen that the battlefield at this moment has gone very deep into the north. Persephone was still charming, but the corners of her eyebrows and eyes were full of tiredness, and it seemed that the intensity of this battle was also a burden on her.
Persephone smiled and said, "Honey, is there any good news?" If you have, hurry up and say, without me, those servants won't be able to support it for long! β
"Good news and bad news. The good thing is that Sue's treatment has been successful, at least for now, and can make a full recovery. β¦β¦β
Before Helen could finish speaking, Persephone shouted, "Won't affect combat effectiveness? Great, dear, you are great! β
Helen coldly interrupted Persephone's excitement and said, "You'd better hear the bad news first!" Sue had learned of Medirri's death, and the Spider Empress had sent someone over to Sue to see Medirri one last time after she recovered. β
Persephone's expression froze and then shocked, and she cried out, "What did you just say?!" Medirli died in battle? How did she die, and at whose hands did she die?! Helen! How come you never sued me about this? β
Even through the light screen, Helen was still pricked in the eardrums by Persephone's cry, she frowned slightly, and said in a flat, cold voice, "I heard that Medirli raided Twilight's castle one night, killing everyone from Twilight's decision to Piegler, and she herself was killed in that battle." That's all I know, and the sources aren't reliable, I thought you should know. β
With Persephone as a dragoon general, the intelligence channels were certainly much wider than Helen, who did not have any official position. Persephone looked at the screen in a daze, but the focus of her eyes did not know where it fell, two lines of tears quietly slipped from the corners of her eyes, but she seemed to be unaware, but muttered: "I don't know, I haven't checked the news about her for a long time...... I don't really know ......."
Helen lifted her glasses, seemed a little worried, and called softly, "Fanny, Fanny? β
Persephone awoke abruptly from her trance, noticed her strangeness, smiled reluctantly, and said, "All right, dear, I have to go to war." After this battle, I will go back to Dragon City! If nothing else, let's do it first! β
"If you feel unwell, don't forget to take the medicine I gave you!" Helen admonished.
"Yes." Persephone hurriedly answered and shut off the communication.
Helen stared blankly at the empty screen, and after a long time, she sighed softly.
