Chapter 67: Contradictions

Bai Ke was soaked in the culture tank. It had been two days since Sherlock had sent him back. In the past two days, Dinah has been operating on him, the rotten shoulder has been cut, the broken bones have been spliced well, the bone residue has been removed, the rotten flesh has been dug up, and the broken muscles, blood vessels, nerves and other tissues have also been stitched up one by one, and finally a complete shoulder has been roughly restored.

The injuries to other parts of Bai Ke's body were also very serious, especially the flesh and blood in his chest where he was struck by lightning was completely carbonized, and finally Dinah dug it up, leaving a hole the size of a bowl, and Bai Ke's snow-white sternum and wriggling internal organs could almost be seen, which was very terrifying. Dina also found that many of Bai Ke's internal organs were also burned by lightning, but unfortunately even she couldn't heal them through surgery, so she could only rely on Bai Ke to heal herself.

To be honest, any person, even if he is an awakened powerhouse, has a high probability of dying if he is so seriously injured. Bai Ke also relied on his dragon vein physique to survive until now, and I have to say that Bakar's bloodline gift really benefited him a lot.

Dinah looked at Bai Ke who had soaked in the culture tank, her brows furrowed. This time, Bai Ke's injuries were too serious, and even she was not sure that Bai Ke would be able to completely heal without leaving disability and sequelae. She walked into the data room and took out the top-secret plan that had been sealed before and looked at it, her eyes slowly revealing firmness. After resealing the plan, she walked into the lab and began to dispense a potion. After the potion was prepared, she hesitated for a moment, but still injected it into the cultivation tank where Bai Ke was.

I don't know how long later, in the dimly lit laboratory, the lights turned on one after another. Bai Ke woke up from the cultivation tank faintly, and with a familiar whirlwind of the sky, he was washed into the pool again. After standing up from the pool, he made a big jump out of the pool, then shook off the droplets of water from his body and picked up a white coat from a familiar position and put it on. Then a familiar voice came to my ears: "Master, are you awake?" What do you think now? ”

Bai Ke touched his arm, which was completely dilapidated before, and found that it was completely healed at this time. He couldn't help but feel a sense of relief in his heart, it seemed that he would not be crippled. He sensed the rest of his body and found nothing unusual.

Bai Ke took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, and finally spoke: "I'm fine." Thank you, Dinah. ”

He looked around, still familiar with the laboratory, he turned his head and asked Dinah, "Dinah, how long have I been in this soaking this time?" "You've been recuperating for a hundred days this time."

"A hundred days?" Bai Ke frowned secretly, and said in his heart: "It seems that it's not okay to always get injured like this, you have to sleep for two or three months at every turn, and your time is wasted." ”

"By the way, what happened to Kaino?" Bai Ke thought of the great enemy he had only seen in his life, and couldn't help asking.

"Kaino's body was taken away by the four adventurers, who left you five hundred gold coins for your future life."

"Well, the four of them are really good. There are not many people with such a sense of justice now. Bai Ke was a little emotional when he heard this.

"yes, they're really nice to you. In that case, they would have left you in the forest to fend for yourself, or even killed you in the wild, without anyone knowing, so that they could keep the bounty and loot to themselves. But they brought you back to Huttonmar and handed you over to Sherlock, and apparently they were still very responsible and had a great sense of justice. There are indeed not many such people in Arad anymore. For the benefactor who rescued Bai Ke, Dinah did not hesitate to praise.

"That's right, they're all good people." Speaking of this, Bai Ke suddenly raised his head and stared into Dinah's eyes and said, "Although this crusade against Kaino is Sherlock's request, it is your request. Do you know the true strength of Kaino? ”

Dinah and Bai Ke looked at each other and did not speak.

"Did you stealthily follow me to Kaino's territory?"

Continuing to look at each other, Dinah still didn't speak.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll die there?"

They kept looking at each other, and they were speechless.

After a long time, Bai Ke retracted his gaze.

"Forget it. There are risks associated with taking risks, and that's not something you can control. And you didn't force me to solve Kaino, it was my own carelessness and didn't investigate Kaino's strength, so I attacked the enemy lightly, and I fell into that dangerous situation. It was indeed my own mistake, and I blame no one. After saying that, Bai Ke turned around and left, leaving Dina alone in the experimental hall.

To be honest, when Bai Ke took risks before, he always thought that Dinah would follow him incognito, secretly observing herself, and would rescue her when she was in danger.

Chang Saburo's time, although Bai Ke faced crises several times, after all, there were four people on the side. And as long as Changzaburo's attack didn't directly hit Bai Ke's vital point, he couldn't have died on the spot, so Dina didn't appear Bai Ke could understand.

The time of the poisonous Elvis, the poisonous Elvis avoided Bai Ke throughout the whole process, obviously unwilling to fight Bai Ke to the death, and it was normal for Dina not to appear.

But this time, Bai Ke can be said to be completely struggling on the death line. Both times he thought that he was going to die, although he finally survived by chance, but Bai Ke began to wonder if Dinah was with him? When she was dying, Dinah didn't show up to save herself, did she care about her life or death?

Dinah never spoke, and Bai Ke couldn't see any change in expression on her face, so he finally had to give up and stop dwelling on the topic, but he still had a pimple in his heart after all.

Bai Ke returned to his room, recalled what happened just now, and suddenly laughed at himself: "I'm really impulsive and reckless!" Now that I think about it, I didn't have an answer to my question in the first place! ”

What could Dinah say to him? Tell him that I've been watching you all the time, and that I'll eventually come to your rescue when you're in danger. Then Bai Ke may not use his brains and pay attention to his own safety during the adventure, and rely on recklessness all the way. In this way, even if Dinah is really hiding in the shadows and ready to rescue Bai Ke at any time, as the enemies he encounters in the future become stronger and stronger, there will always be a time when Dinah can't be saved, and will Bai Ke really die at that time?

If Dinah told Bai Ke that she didn't follow him and that everything depended on him, would Bai Ke dare to fight desperately regardless of life and death in the future? I'm afraid it can't be. Once he has concerns in his heart, then his combat power will at least drop by a few percent, and the battle that he could have won will be lost.

This is an unsolvable problem, and Bai Ke is now piercing it, and it has no effect except to make both parties feel embarrassed and uncomfortable. But Bai Ke just couldn't help it, the reason why he was so unscrupulous was because Kaino's matter shocked him too much. Several times he was extremely close to death, and Bai Ke was still scared after all. He's a traverser, he hasn't created brilliance yet, and he doesn't want to die yet!

Bai Ke thought that he would be the protagonist and would not die; He thought that Dinah would save him at a critical moment, so he rushed all the way and fought hard. But when it came time to face mortal danger, Dinah didn't show up. The fear of death made him wonder if he was self-inflicted, and Dinah didn't actually follow him?

With this suspicion, his fear of death came to his mind, and he couldn't get rid of it. He knew that if he didn't do something, he might not be able to fight without fear of life and death in his adventures.

He's scared!

"Yes, I'm scared! It's hard to admit that! If you don't want to admit it, then you have to vent your anger on others. Bai Ke buried his head in his hands and covered his face, as if there was a splash of water oozing from his fingers.

"Didn't I just keep questioning Dinah, and I was just venting my anger to hide the panic in my heart?" He was full of sorrow, but he never said a word, and stayed in the room all the time.

After Bai Ke left, Dinah stayed alone in the experimental hall. She looked up at the incubator, where the familiar figure was no longer there, and had just left. She didn't make any movements, just kept looking up and watching......

She didn't move until the lights in the hall dimmed......

…… Dividing line ......

One hundred days ago.

Dinah sent Bai Ke into the cultivation tank, did all the follow-up work, and then she stood under the cultivation tank, looking up at Bai Ke all the time.

Look at this familiar scene, look at this scene that has been watched for 500 years.

Dinah just kept looking up at Bai Ke, just like so many days and nights in the past five hundred years.

For five hundred years, Dinah has been standing under this cultivation tank and watching Bai Ke most of the time, except for personally expanding this underground base from the size of a single laboratory to the current scale, and occasionally going out to collect intelligence on the mainland.

As a puppet, Dinah doesn't need to eat, wash, sleep, or even breathe, she just keeps looking at Bai Ke, maybe a few years or more than ten years at a time.

watched Bai Ke become younger little by little, watched him grow taller little by little, watched him change from a short fat man to a tall young man, watched his fat little belly slowly disappear, watched the muscles on his body gradually rise, and just watched him like this... I kept looking at him......

Just like she is at this moment.

In order to save energy, most of the light sources in the underground base have been turned off at this time, only some indicator lights are still flashing, and in the dark and dark hall, with the indicator lights flashing one after another, Dinah's vague figure is reflected. In this quiet environment, Dinah remembered the song she had loved for decades, and couldn't help humming softly:

Five hundred years of mulberry fields and seas

The boulders are also covered with moss

Overgrown with moss

Only one heart is not dead

Longing for leisure

Longing for leisure

Even if it's wildfires

Even if it's covered in snow and ice

It's still the same ambition

It's still faith

Five hundred years of mulberry fields and seas

The boulders are also covered with moss

Overgrown with moss

Only one heart is not dead

Longing for leisure

Longing for leisure

Even if it's wildfires

Even if it's covered in snow and ice

It's still the same ambition

It's still faith

The years have been wasted

Hurt feelings

Why? Why?

There is such an arrangement

Why? Why?

There is such an arrangement

……

…… Dividing line ......

Now, a hundred days later.

Dinah stood in the same position again, in the same position, looking at the empty ...... of the incubator.

Five hundred years of loneliness, five hundred years of waiting, only for one goal. That's why she was born, and that's what she's calling now......

It's a pity that Bai Ke doesn't know all this......
