13 Warm time with Irene

The centurion, Sheena, and McCullin priest left the ward, leaving Irene alone.

The rain stopped. The night is quiet, the town outside the window is lit up in warm lights, and the streets are filled with the sound of people selling. This should be a good sign, at least in such a chaotic world, the economy and commerce have not collapsed, and are recovering little by little.

There were steam lamps hanging from the white ceiling, and the light reflected on Erin's face, and the smile was warm. She curled up on the wooden chair again, holding her chin: "Actually, when you don't have dark circles, you're quite handsome." ”

Lorne smiled shyly, "You're ...... too." It's beautiful, like an angel. ”

"An angel in white?" said Erin, smiling happily.

She was dressed in a plain white gown, she looked a little big, her long ivory white hair was tied up, and her body exuded a faint smell of herbs, she should have just participated in the first aid.

Lorne remembered seeing her for the first time in the barn the previous night, and she had a faint floral scent, silky and long, which was more suitable for a girl of her age. But this world made her put on a medical gown early, and she had to become resolute and mature.

But Lorne also liked the smell of herbs on her body, and thought it was good to be with her. Lorne was a little moved.

"Lorne, where the hell are you from?" asked Erin suddenly, softly, curious, "Coming back from the dead, sounds like some kind of legend." ”

Lorne came back to his senses and shook his head, "I don't know. I woke up from Woodtown, everything in this world is strange, and I don't remember what I've experienced in the last ten years. ”

"Maybe you don't belong to this world in the first place. "Do you believe in the past and the present?"

Lorne didn't speak, looking at her.

"I heard my mother say that if a person dies, the soul may leave the body and come to another world, into the body of a newborn baby. But there is also another theory that the soul will enter a dying body and then come back to life. And this dying body has some connection to your original body. Erin said softly.

Lorne's eyes widened slowly.

"Your soul, maybe lived in this world a long time ago, or maybe this is the future you haven't seen yet, Lorne Green is your name in this world. Erin chuckled, "Isn't that amazing." ”

Lorne nodded, looking at his familiar and unfamiliar hands. These few words made him think, maybe this was really the world he lived in a few lifetimes ago, or the distant future. It's just that how did your original body die?

Lorne didn't remember, and soon didn't want to think about it. Although this world is very hopeless, since it has come, we must return hope to this world. He secretly made up his mind and clenched his fists.

Erin stretched out her little white hand and took out two candy wrapped in transparent paper from her gown pocket: "Here you go, this is the centurion's reward of toffee, I like to eat it very much." ”

"Thank you. Lorne took the candy and peeled off the candy wrapper, and it was creamy. Put it in your mouth and it's soft.

"Fortunately, the pastures in the warning area are not polluted, otherwise I am afraid that I will never be able to eat toffee again. Erin had sugar in her mouth, and her royal blue eyes were slightly dark.

"I'll keep you fed. Lorne looked at her and couldn't help but say this.

Erin smiled and nodded: "Actually, I admire Sheena very much, she is not only the chief surgeon, but also has been involved in various research. She's always had an idea, and now she's finally able to put it into practice. ”

"What is it?" asked Lorne.

"Make purifying serum. Unlike the Monster Serum, it is not used to improve the Hunter's abilities, but to remove the contamination toxins from the Monster Object, allowing them to turn back into normal creatures. If a hunter is injected, he may lose all his abilities and become a normal person. Erin said.

"Purification?" Lorne's eyes widened.

"Yes, the blood used to make the purified serum is extracted from uncontaminated organisms. But after the monster was contaminated, the mutated body was too different from the normal structure. Just like those sickle spiders, which were supposed to be ordinary jungle hunting spiders, now they have become disgusting. ”

She continued, "So it's not enough to have a serum, even if you can completely purify the blood of the monsters, you can't change their mutated bodies. But it's a different story with the addition of magic materials. ”

Lorne was stunned. He remembered what Samuel had said, that Nokmar was a new industrial country, mainly developing technology related to steam power, and that there were not many people involved in the field of magic, but magic was also very popular.

At a time when the world order was stable, Nokmaar had a good relationship with his neighbor Wiselde and often came and went. Wiserd is a magical kingdom, and the popularity of magic in the country is extremely high, even children as young as four or five years old can say a few simple spells, but they are often used to play tricks on people.

But while Westeld's magic was common, there were times when it was inconvenient. Although magic is easy to use, it also consumes a lot, and you can't always use fire magic when boiling water for cooking, and throwing a ball of fireball to ignite the dry wood is really embarrassing. Besides, not everyone knows fire magic.

Therefore, Wiserd is still a little backward in new technology, and even primitive can be called primitive, using firewood and oil, but it cannot be sustained and recycled for a long time, resulting in a sharp reduction in resources.

I also heard that Wesland's council was often quarrelling, because many of the trees with magical powers were cut down for firewood, much to the heartache of several old fellows. However, after Nokmar's steam technology was on the right track, Wissell's situation also improved considerably.

Five years ago, Constantine, the monarch of Nokamal, and Vulcan, the leader of Viselde, had been in frequent contact. Constantine introduced several steam-powered prototypes to the Magic Kingdom and taught many basic steam techniques.

This is like a blessing from heaven, which finally solves the problem of eating for the magicians, and they do not have to bathe in the water that has been burned by the fireball technique too often, which burns the old guys' skin red.

Of course, as a token of appreciation, the Magic Kingdom also gave a copy of many simple New World magic records to Nokmar. Not only that, but the Grand Magician Vulcan, as the highest level of fire magician, used a secret method to make an eternal flame and give it to Konstantin to be used as a steam-powered incendiary object.

In addition, Vulcan also used various magic crystals, combined with fire magic, to make an eternally bright, brilliant and changeable lamp, called the "Gem of the Elemental God", which was personally given to Konstantin.

The jeweled lamp was regarded as the supreme treasure by Constantine, and was brought back to the castle during the rest, and brought to the monarch's hall during the day, and he liked it so much that he did not want to leave half a step.

However, after the release of the old evil gods, King Nokmar fell, and the life and death of the monarch Konstantin is unknown. I wonder if he still keeps watch in front of that lamp day and night?
