Chapter 189: Bonding
The disproportionate force nearly threw his hand in the examiner's face, but Kraft reflexively pressed it down, using fifty or sixty percent force to balance it.
At this time, the pressure exerted on the arm was comparable to that of swinging a sword, and Yvonne fought against it for a few seconds without exhaustion, and the straight silhouette below could be felt through the clothes and cortex.
The shape of the muscles has not changed, but they have lost their flexibility, and they are stretched like a cable pulling a full sail, showing abnormal strength. When the palm of the hand realizes that something is wrong, it quickly releases and stops applying force to prevent damage from excessive load.
"Does it hurt here?" The two fingers are pressed on the abdomen, and the tension is still clearly present in the muscles after the arm is relaxed, solidifying into normal.
Yvonne shook her head decisively, not only did she not feel the pain of the strain, but she even wondered why the strength of today's inspection was too soft.
When the examination was extended to the whole body, he found that the condition was not limited to the left arm, but was widespread throughout the body. ”
Still shaking his head. The head shook so much that the hair was thrown up, and the flexibility was not at all to show that the neck was almost stiff when the physical examination was first checked.
This kind of serious discrepancy between muscle strength and appearance can be said to be quite familiar. The shells that have been completely drained of organic components by the mushrooms are small enough to be called remnants of muscle fibers that cling to the bones, and they can still achieve explosive movements.
The parasitic giant creeping creature forcibly supported its huge body with human tissue, and instead of being crushed by its own weight, it relied on its wrists and feet to achieve the feat of dragging the cumbersome body movement, which was like a jelly house that could stand up.
and the abnormal situation of using a slender arm against the strength of an adult.
Regardless of the fact that he had just used his mental organ at the Duke's, Kraft once again threw himself into that penetrating perspective to observe the changes in Yvonne's body.
The airway inflammation that had existed in the previous days has subsided, but the situation has not normalized, and some very subtle filaments that have grown for many days to reach the minimum observable limit adhere to the airway and conform to the moist tube wall.
Such an obvious foreign body did not cause any discomfort, the mucosa was blind to it, and the defensive cough reflex was silent, watching the strands that moved deep into the trachea.
The infection expands and the inflammation subsides, and the immune system is either powerless to control it or perceives it as something that does not need to be controlled.
As the primary lesion, changes in the airway are not the greatest. In those muscles with significantly altered tension, long filaments weave into the connective tissue and grow and entangle with the muscle bundles.
They are evenly contaminated with the original body, and then multiply horizontally, until today they finally show a macroscopic form, and the muscle fibers are woven into a three-dimensional mixed network that is indistinguishable from each other, bearing the force and completely changing the texture of skeletal muscle.
Hypertonia is a pure illusion, which is essentially a mixture of muscle and hyphae, and of course feels completely different to the touch.
"Is there anything else wrong with you?"
"I feel a little noisy, but I can't tell you what that 'sound' is." Yvonne pulled out his hand and rubbed his ears, thinking that Kraft was talking and let go of his hand, frowning and feeling something, "It's not a distant sound, it's very close, I don't know where it is, obviously it's a little less after that neck pain." ”
The fungus attached to the back of the neck of the spiritual body stretches slightly, and the velvety outer layer sways without wind. This is one of the quietest places on the upper floors of the castle, with only patrols occasionally passing by the gates.
"Can you hear what it is?"
"I'm not sure, like that kind of street talk, but it's close and soft." She said the contradictory description, confusing herself, "Sorry, if it's important, I can try to hear it." ”
"No, don't listen to what it's saying." We can't wait any longer, we have to deal with it immediately. The mental organs surround and grasp a small piece of the fungus.
It shuddered and shrunk, trying to reduce the amount of exposure it was exposed. Yvonne put his hand to his ear, trying to collect the reappeared sound, but to no avail, and instead covered the back of his neck to block the unknown source of the pain.
"Bear with me a little bit, maybe that will silence the voice." With the experience of the previous time, Kraft has learned some experience.
You can't hesitate to see the patient's reaction, you must lock the locked position as quickly and accurately as possible, and tear a piece decisively, the more you delay, the more extensive the impact will spread, but it will cause secondary injury.
Controlling the exertion of the mental senses, this operation became more and more skillful with the number of repetitions, and the doubts about it deepened.
People are born to use their bodies without barriers, but the understanding of its essence is very late, and the microscopic cognition has not developed until modern times. The same is true of the spiritual senses, which are used as naturally as siblings, but it is impossible to understand how they act on the fungus.
Or think about it the other way around, the effect is mutual, why is it the spiritual senses that suppress the aboriginal consciousness that is born in the depths, instead of the fungus group cannibalizing the spiritual senses that come into contact with it?
He didn't understand this, and he didn't have anywhere to explore. While thinking, the fungus spirit has been torn off by an irresistible force, and a new wound has been added, and it has fallen silent.
"Can you still hear the sound?"
Yvonne let go of the hand covering the back of his neck and looked around in confusion, "It seems to ...... Without? ”
Her spirit is not very good, she is in a state of drowsiness, and the environment is more suitable for sleep after the pain and the sound in her ears disappear, and her upper and lower eyelids keep bumping.
The two pains were linked, and she realized that it wasn't an unexpected symptom, but something to do with Kraft, "That's the treatment?" ”
But she couldn't understand how it was done, there was no contact or any movement, and the sounds were like the negative noise of insects stuck to the clothes being ripped off and silenced, and the ears were quiet again.
Is that also a very rational thing? Yvonne struggled to overcome his drowsiness and looked at Kraft, hoping for more information.
"Yes, you're sick, Yvonne." And it's not light, the situation is so serious that I can't tell it. This is different from the Duke's condition, this damn fungus somehow escaped the immune system and spread throughout the body, and the root of the root stuck to the spirit body could not be picked up.
The next treatment is tightrope walking, which has to be suppressed frequently to stop further progression. He didn't know what would happen if it went any further, and he didn't want to know what would happen.
"Is it serious?"
"It's hard to say right now." Kraft leaned back on the chair beside the bed, and after some consideration, he said, "The symptoms are not obvious now, although the whole body is manifested, but no one can see the specific situation in the body, can it?" Therefore, the possibility of misdiagnosis cannot be ruled out, and we currently have a treatment as well. ”
Habitually used an evasive statement, thinking about going back to inform the guardian, but after thinking about it, I found that it didn't make sense at all. In the face of Yvonne's questioning gaze, he somewhat hoped that this would make her vaguely understand, but he didn't want her to understand.
However, the girl had apparently seen the doctor take such an attitude. Maybe you don't even need to think about the rhetoric, you can judge by the reaction alone.
"Thank you, Mr. Kraft." She lifted the blanket up to her chest, and returned it with a faint, smiling comforting expression, which disappeared without leaving a trace.
Turning to her side, she turned closer to the window, half of her face bathed in the warm glow, the bridge of her nose lit up with light and dark. After months of improved diet and exercise, the lack of nutrients was effectively replenished, and the face was finally roundered, and the skin became more radiant and rosy, close to what Kraft remembered as a child.
Because of the long-term relationship, this kind of appearance change is not noticeable when you don't think about it, but I feel that the outline is a lot gentle, and it looks healthy and cute. But if you compare what they looked like a few months ago, they might be two completely different people.
It's just that those eyes, when they look at each other, they can't see any panic and fear, only calm, just like when they first met.
A kind of clear and clear calm, like a body of extremely clear water, which contains all the reflections, and so clear that it is almost empty, so that there is a natural desire for something to fill this void.
"I don't regret it."
“……”
"Get some sleep, don't walk around, and the next treatment will be in three days." Kraft was silent for a long time, straightened up, closed half of the curtains, and quietly walked out the door.
Yvonne definitely didn't make it clear. He knew about it for a long time, and now he's even more sure.
Since she doesn't say it, most of it is not external factors, but what she did under her own subjective will, and it has something to do with this incident.
"Well, I hate guessing with people." The worst situation that can be imagined is nothing more than the death of an unlucky person indirectly caused by the act of hiding, the problem is that it is not good to go straight to psychological intervention, and even if you know it, it will not be beneficial to intervene in the disease.
In this way, Koop is indeed a good partner. It's right that the ability is average, there is no ambition, at least the basic three views have been formed, straightforward and easy to understand, and can communicate in a timely manner, which is very stable.
"I really don't understand what children think." After walking a little way, Kraft turned to Koop, "What do you think she's thinking?" ”
"I don't know." Koop replied. It wasn't a must-answer question, just a casual one, and he didn't think he could give Kraft an answer to it.
"But I don't think you need to worry too much, she's not like a normal child."
"That's what I'm worried about."
It does not bode well for the mental body to be affected, a large number of foreign bodies in the body to bind to normal tissues, and the immune system to do nothing and grow uncontrollably.
Wait, who is this? 】
Kraft stopped suddenly, and Koop couldn't react, and a sudden brake hit him in the back, nearly causing them to lose their balance and roll down the steep staircase.
"Sorry, what's wrong with you?"
"Something comes to mind." Kraft's gaze was fixed on his raised left arm, and he seemed to suddenly become very interested in the stitching of the cuffs. The pain caused by excessive consumption is hitting the skull, and the forehead horn hurts.
