Chapter 86: Follow-up 1
The night's disturbances came to an end, and a few of the alert disciples who were still in good condition went out to take a look, and soon came back to say that the fence set up by the patrolmen had been removed, which proved that the Remy Henton Company had indeed retreated tonight, and it looked like there would be no more twists and turns tonight, but for Dior, he still had a lot to deal with.
Lynch couldn't hold it long after the battle ended, the injury he had in the fight with Versailles didn't heal, and he resisted Puran's full force tonight, and his condition became very serious, and he passed out directly after making sure that the martial arts hall was fine. Chapman was no better, his limbs and torso had fractures of varying severity, and he fell into a deep sleep after treating his injuries and taking some special injuries, and it was expected that his injuries would not be completely healed in a month or two.
In addition, the two elders of the same generation as the curator Valen, who guarded the secret arsenal, one died directly in the previous fight, and the other was said to have disappeared when someone from the Remehamton Company came to the door, and Lynch told Dior before he fell into a coma that the elder was carrying out a special plan for a certain sect to continue the inheritance in the face of an irresistible disaster, and the specific situation was only known to Valen, and now he didn't know where this elder was.
The rest of the disciples are not enough in status, and they are more or less injured, so Dio, who thwarted the conspiracy of the Remy Henton Company in one fell swoop tonight, has become the backbone of the remaining people of the sect - at least until Valen and Prague return, he can only rely on him to support the sect.
Letting a disciple send the doctor away, Dio, who was tied like a mummy, breathed a sigh of relief and leaned back in his chair and pretended to sleep for a while.
The doctor who had just been sent away came from a medical hall across the street from the martial arts hall, and the disciples of the martial arts hall usually went there for treatment if they had some injuries, which was quite familiar. It wasn't that the doctor didn't know about the movement here in the martial arts hall before, but he didn't dare to come out at all, until the battle was over, Dio asked the disciples around him who were in better condition to knock on the door, which made the doctor come to the door with some trepidation to treat the people in the martial arts hall, and left immediately after the treatment, not daring to linger any longer.
Overall, Lynch's injury is the most troublesome, the internal injury is very serious, and the doctor can only treat the external injury for him to ensure that it will not worsen, and Dio has no choice but to wait for the master to come back. He also thought about it or could ask Dion if there was a way, but it was estimated that Remy Henton Company had made such a big move tonight, and it should not come back in a short time, so he was going to send a letter to the Hummingbird antique store after dawn, so that Dion would contact him when he returned.
And things at home.
Thinking of this, Dio looked down at his body covered in bandages and couldn't see the skin, it seemed that he couldn't go back in a short time, but he couldn't help but think of a better excuse for his parents and sister.
But fortunately, although his injuries looked miserable, they were actually traumatic, and they were lighter than those he had in the underground of Mannheim Mountain, and his own control of muscle control had improved significantly, which had a good effect on healing his own injuries, and he estimated that he would be basically fine after a week.
Although the internal affairs of the martial arts hall are a little troublesome in this special situation, they have survived by gritting their teeth, but the external troubles are far from being eliminated - tonight, the Remy Henton Company has failed, but their overall strength has not been seriously hit, once they fight again, and the situation of the Gray Scale Martial Arts Hall has reached the point of no return, so how should they deal with it?
Maybe it's because Dio is in a state of weakness, which affects his own psychology, and thinking about this makes his heart feel heavier than ever. In the face of this kind of situation where the building is about to collapse, it is so difficult to rely on individuals to turn the tide, but he can't show the slightest lack of confidence on the surface, after all, he is now the only backbone of the martial arts hall, if he starts to decline, then how can other disciples persevere?
For a while, he only felt that it was difficult to sort out the myriad things, and he couldn't wait to find someone to fight again, even if the injury was serious, it was easier than facing these troubles.
Distraught, Dio began to subconsciously practice breathing, and soon, many of these distractions caused by his own weakness dissipated.
Before he knew it, he slowly closed his eyes and sat back like this, falling asleep.
......
At the same time, there is no one passing through the corner of the martial arts hall.
Suddenly, a breeze swept the fallen leaves, and two figures suddenly appeared.
It was two women, one tall and beautiful, the other petite and cute, who were Dior's sister and the little girl Catherine he met in the stairwell.
"Sister Lilia, that brother of yours is so powerful, so handsome, just a little fierce......"
Catherine's face was as red as a ripe apple, and her forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and I don't know if it was because she had to spend all her energy to maintain this obscuring barrier, or because she was too excited to watch the thrilling battle, but looking at her somewhat excited expression, I guess the latter was more of the latter.
Regarding Catherine's words, Paplov, whose body is a diamond at the top of the scepter, rarely did not refute her, but admitted her statement with some emotion: "It is indeed a powerful mortal, so young can have such a heart and strength, he will be able to reach the top of mortals sooner or later." It's just a pity, no matter how powerful a mortal is, he is just a mortal. However, since he is Lilia's older brother, has such a reliable relationship, and has good strength, I suggest that he can be absorbed into the peripheral organization and can be used as Lilia's assistant. ”
"I agree with you. The interface was Hillarda, who lived in the jewel on Lilia's chest, "a mortal, but ......"
"I refuse!" Lilia said suddenly, interrupting Hillarada, "I've let danger loom in on my family for my own sake, so I must not drag them deeper into the trouble I've caused, no matter who it is, I won't allow it!"
The reason why the two of them sneaked to the martial arts hall tonight was because Lilia learned from Catherine that there was a fierce battle in a nearby park, and that the protagonist of this battle had just been bumped into by Catherine in the stairwell.
This coincidental event made Lilia's heart tighten, and after checking the time of encounter and the description of the person, Lilia could be almost certain that the person Catherine was talking about was Dio, who had just left home. Out of anxiety, she took Catherine all the way to the martial arts hall, and with Catherine's enchantment-making ability learned from Paplov, she entered the martial arts hall without alarming anyone, so that she was able to watch the battle process of Dior from beginning to end.
Tonight's scene made Lilia feel more and more that Dio had become completely different from her previous impression at some point, and began to find his own way, becoming more and more mature, no longer the mediocre brother she was ashamed to talk about, but enough for her to proudly mention it in front of her friends. The change was quick and fast, and before you knew it, it was what it was now.
This kind of cognition made her psychology very complicated, and she had an indescribable feeling, which subconsciously made her reject the proposal of Hiralda and Pavlov.
"When did it start?" Lilia thought.
There was a slight silence for a moment before Hillarda spoke again, pulling Lilia back from her thoughts: "I see, it all depends on your will, we are just making suggestions that we think are reasonable. ”
"Dio, how is he now?" Lilia asked, shaking her head as if to toss her thoughts out of her head.
"You can rest assured that his vitality is very strong, and this injury has only weakened him a little, and it will be fine soon. Pavlov replied.
"Is it okay with such a serious injury?" Lilia was very surprised by Pavlov's statement, she had seen such a tragic injury on Dio's body with her own eyes, and if Paplov hadn't kept dissuading her from saying that Dio was okay, she would have rushed out during Dio's battle.
"It's not surprising that there were many good fighters of my time who had specific special abilities, and it was possible that future generations would activate them as well. This healing ability of your brother is probably possessed by one of his ancestors, and he doesn't know how to activate it. Pavlov explained,
"I see. Lilia nodded abruptly and said to herself, "Is this the reason why he has changed so much?"
She kept recalling the details of Dior during this time in her mind, and the more she thought about it, the more likely she felt that this conjecture was the truth.
"Sister Lilia, what are we going to do next?" Catherine saw that Lilia didn't speak for a while, and pulled Lilia's sleeve.
"Let's go back. ”
Since Dio was fine, Lilia didn't want him to find out about her coming with her tonight, so she prepared to go home first.
"Oh. ”
Catherine nodded obediently and followed Lilia out.
"Paplov, I remember you said I could make a request to the Order. Walking to the place where the martial arts hall could no longer be seen when she turned around, Lilia said suddenly.
"Of course, you've got it in mind?"
"Yes. Lilia nodded, "Take me to the local person in charge tomorrow." ”
"Okay, as you wish. ”
