14 Patients
"So, we have magic materials?" Lorne came back to his senses.
"After the fall of Nokmar, people didn't have time to flee all the way south with a lot of resources. Later, some people tried to return to the Midlands, trying to bring back the steam device and magic materials, but they never returned. Erin was a little disappointed.
Lorne was silent and sighed. The outside world is rampant with monsters, and it is already respectful to have such courage, but the reality is like those sickle spiders, cutting people's hopes to pieces.
"We don't have many magic materials left, and we only consume them but don't replenish them, and Sheena's idea has never been able to be implemented. But today is different. There was a sudden hint of hope in Erin's eyes, "Just as you were unconscious, someone came back from the middle and brought a lot of good things!"
Lorne's eyes widened, and there was some anticipation in his heart. Who can fight his way out of the encirclement and go to the territory of monsters to bring hope to people?
Before he could ask, Erin said with admiration on her face, "The hunter of the punishment sequence, Black Rose." ”
"Black Rose?" Lorne was stunned.
"Jugshia von Reinhard. Actually, I shouldn't have called her by her name like that, you have to keep it a secret for me. Erin leaned into Lorne's ear and breathed warmly, "She's the princess." ”
The Princess. Lorne forgot to breathe for a moment: "Daughter of Constantine the Great?"
Erin nodded: "When the disaster happened, she was not in the royal capital, but in Starry Night City, and then somehow survived, and found the base of Baifan Town, about two months ago." ”
At that time, the hunter had already appeared, and the serum technology was officially put into use, and she decided to inject the serum despite the dissuasion of the people, abandoning the title of princess. The efficacy of the serum on her was beyond imagination, and she began to gain various abilities, and now she has activated level 4 abilities. Erin said again.
Lorne even forgot to exclaim, sure enough, the noble blood was different! He began to imagine that this woman he had never seen before was a young and beautiful elegant nobleman, but listening to her name of the Black Rose, it seemed that it was not like that.
But inexplicably, Lorne actually had a trace of envy and jealousy. It turns out that he is not the only powerful hunter who protects people. But soon, Erin's words made this thought disappear suddenly.
"Although the world is in chaos now, heroes are constantly coming forward, as if it is the favor of the gods in heaven. She's a hero, and the high-ranking hunters of the punishment sequence and the other hunters are heroes, Lorne. Erin paused and whispered in her ear, "You are everyone's hero and my hero." ”
Lorne didn't know how to describe how he felt right now. He listened to the soft whisper, like an angel of love beside him.
Maybe she's just expressing her gratitude for protecting her in the woods? Maybe she's thinking too much, and this is just her way of expressing her gratitude?
Lorne blinked, telling himself not to sink too deep for a moment. After only one day of acquaintance, it seems that the relationship is about to develop from a doctor and a patient to an indescribable ambiguity.
He suddenly remembered Samur and Bawin. Samuel's right arm was cut off, Bawen was bitten through the abdomen, and it is unknown what the situation is now. Lorne asked, "Yes...... How's Samuel and Bawin?"
Erin blinked and said, "They've done the surgery and are now resting in the intensive care unit on the first floor, Ba Wen should be awake." Sister Yugshia brought back the branches of the resuscitation tree, and the burning aroma can speed up the healing of wounds, and can replace sickle grass. The other wounded were fine, she brought back a lot of them, and they could last a long time. ”
"Great. Lorne breathed a sigh of relief, "I'd like to meet Blackbrier...... I don't know if it's okay. ”
"What's wrong with that, she's a hunter now, too. And after hearing about you, she wants to meet you too. Erin smiled, "But do you want to go see Bawen and them first?"
Lorne blamed himself, "yes, let's go visit them first." They were all injured because of me, and if I had beaten those dogs to death earlier, Bawen would not have been bitten, and if I hadn't saved people, Samur wouldn't have ......."
"None of them will blame you. No one will blame you. Erin whispered, helping him out of bed, "Everything can be forgiven except betrayal." ”
Lorne took a deep breath and nodded. The two men exited the room, walked through the dimly lit corridors of the hospital, and entered the corner intensive care unit.
The air was filled with incense, the steam lamps on the ceiling were on, and two blurred figures were lying on the bed. Lifting the curtain, it was Babin and Samuer.
Bawen was awake, leaning against the edge of the bed in silence, the black streaks on his face a little terrifying. His cleaver sat beside the bedside, and the centurion returned the weapon to Bawen when the mission was over.
Samur hadn't woken up yet, covered with a thick white quilt, and the right side of his body was slightly sunken. Lorne, feeling a little heavy, stepped forward lightly and whispered, "Bawin, you're awake." ”
Ba Wen ignored him, and looked at his hands in a daze, a little strange. Lorne thought he hadn't heard, and raised his voice a little more, "Bavin, are you better?"
Ba Wen slowly looked up, his eyes wandering, and it took a while to gather. And at that moment, Lorne suddenly shuddered, as if he saw something in his eyes.
"It's you. Bawen nodded, his voice low, not as rugged as last night. He didn't smile either, and looked a little sluggish.
"Are you feeling better?" asked Lorne.
Ba Wen seemed to be a little incomprehensible, and was stunned for a few seconds before pulling the corners of his mouth, and smiled stiffly: "I feel good." ”
But Lorne always felt that something was wrong with him, perhaps because he had overdosed on the serum and was still a little confused. But seeing that he could speak fluently, Lorne couldn't quite figure it out. Is it because the wound hasn't healed yet, so it looks a little weak?
Bawen paused, and his smile became more natural: "Jenny said she would come to see me tomorrow." ”
When he said this, the tough guy smiled like a child. The Jenny he said was his favorite person, and the person he liked was coming to visit him, and what a happy thing it was.
Although Lorne didn't know who Jenny was, he also smiled faintly at Bawen's happy expression: "That's great." ”
But Bavin's words froze Erin's smile. She froze in place, slowly widened her eyes, and suddenly smiled awkwardly: "By the way, Lorne and I went to call Sheena to take your temperature and come back soon." ”
Lorne was a little strange, he had only been here for a few minutes, so why was he leaving. But when he noticed that Erin was secretly tugging at his sleeve, he knew something was wrong, and after a moment of silence, Lorne said, "We'll be right here." ”
Ba Wen did not hold back, did not speak, and his gaze slowly lost focus again. Erin hurriedly dragged Lorne out of the hospital room and ran all the way to the second floor, like crazy.
Lorne sensed something serious and asked, "Erin, what's wrong?"
Erin ran as fast as she could, leaving only one sentence behind.
"Jenny is long dead!"
