The World Serpent's good mood stems from its status as a Herrscher, possessing sufficient power. It can directly eliminate those behind-the-scenes manipulators who manipulate it, and even destroy nightmares through physical means.
Ahhh...
What a cruel world.
If you don't want to be tortured and sacrificed as a matter of course, the only option is to shatter the fundamental laws governing the world.
of course.
Knowledge is indeed useful.
It allows for better development and the use of one's own authority.
Therefore, Raiden Mei finally agreed to Mistelin's invitation, and they agreed to have tutoring and remedial lessons in combat skills and knowledge in the future.
The most important thing right now is Jiang Cheng—already, with the help of the summoned Li Xing, he has taken all the necessary items and is lying in the hibernation pod absorbing a high concentration of nutrient solution.
Therefore, Jiang Cheng's clothes were removed without letting either of the two girls present even glance at them. No one had the energy to do such a thing at this time, and even the arguments and chaotic scenes between them were temporarily suspended. Instead, Yu Tu, who was the least involved, cast a few curious glances.
Is this what a human body actually looks like?
It doesn't seem to have anything special about it...
Shouldn't the legendary fully awakened one be someone who has honed their skills to the highest level before they can awaken?
Under Mei and Sakura's gaze, Mistelin typed on the transparent keyboard floating in the air in the most ancient way, organizing and tidying up the corresponding more detailed data.
Perhaps it was only at this moment that the theoretically inclined young woman realized her own problem for the first time.
"My assessment was indeed somewhat inappropriate, as it only considered theoretical combat strength while ignoring the lack of combat experience..."
"He probably really saw something terrifying, which is why he acted so hastily. If he was sure he wouldn't die, he would do everything he could to kill Otto first."
"Delaying time and waiting for your help may not be the best option... He was so reckless in his pursuit of survival; he saw so much."
What makes a person fearless is either a firm belief that they will not die, or a lack of fear of death.
Jiang Cheng, who was striving to survive, clearly did not belong to the latter category, so it could only mean that he firmly believed he would not die.
After all, he has never hidden his true nature. He has always been trying to reduce trouble for himself. He can't possibly try to solve future problems by making himself unable to see the future, can he?
Thinking about it this way, he probably already knew about it all along.
"prophecy……"
“It’s really amazing.”
yes……
Raiden Mei bit her lip.
That's really amazing. I wish I could see it myself.
That should help us understand better why Chengjun did all this.
……
"Is Jiangcheng alright...?" Yae Sakura's gaze was more focused on the boy inside the warehouse.
Especially after hearing self-denial—
Miss Feather Rabbit sighed, gently shaking her head.
Even though she could still sense that Jiang Cheng was still quite energetic, albeit somewhat chaotic, as he relied on the power of Jizo Mitama to walk in the world, she could still clearly sense that Jiang Cheng was still energetic, albeit somewhat chaotic, with his energetic heart beating at a slightly disordered frequency. She couldn't help but feel her heart jump at the first moment.
But clearly not everyone can accept, or rather, tolerate, her concerns, such as that lightning-wielding girl…
"If you could stop wasting so much time."
"I couldn't just stand by and watch Jiang Cheng get hurt."
"I wasn't by Jiangcheng's side then, so were you not there either? And who was that I just saw?"
"Heh... Judging from the marks on Jiang Cheng's body, you must have been watching from the sidelines, waiting for Jiang Cheng to be exhausted before taking advantage of him when he was too weak to do anything about it."
Mentioning this matter would reignite Raiden Mei's anger, making her already unfriendly attitude even more sarcastic and laced with hostility.
"I……"
Unable to refute...
I regret not helping you properly.
……
……
……
It's an indescribable mess.
Is socializing really such a strange thing?
Mistelin no longer wanted to comment on the relationship between the two girls, especially that half-baked criticism that was actually rather inadequate.
To avoid being drawn into the conflict, that incomprehensible chaotic scene, the girl's gaze never wavered—like a dreamlike, smoky purple eye caught in the pale silver snow, clearly reflecting the boy, who was soaking in the hibernation pod, having shed all his clothes.
"Don't worry, my sigh was just to say that my previous understanding was incorrect, and I made the judgment that Jiang Cheng could completely defeat Otto. She is still the same as the initial examination. Even with some additional external injuries, she can still recover to almost full strength within an hour thanks to the medical technology of Destiny and World Serpent. The only thing that is difficult to solve is the exhaustion caused by the medicine."
"Jiang Cheng's fighting ability is quite formidable, and his theoretical potential is extremely high, but he lacks experience in such life-or-death situations, and his judgment of timing... should be more in line with what he sees."
The problems that were pointed out were ultimately swallowed.
Using a gentler tone.
After all, if Jiang Cheng were to say at this point that he's no good because he lacks practical experience and needs more training...
I'm sure I'll get caught up in Mei and Sakura's argument and be mistaken by Mei for someone who's speaking up for Sakura.
……
……
……
"I will never let him face danger again."
—This is Raiden Mei's response.
……
……
Having come this far, even the most clueless Mistelline wouldn't be so oblivious as to not want Jiang Cheng to waste his talent. After all, sending someone with prophetic abilities to the front lines is always a waste and laughable thing. If he hadn't insisted this time, things wouldn't have come to this...
I guess it's still a lack of trust.
Myself and the gray snake.
Because he didn't believe that he and Gray Snake could definitely defeat Otto, he preferred to let World Snake handle logistics and even took drugs that would drain his body in order to personally take the field and ensure that Otto would be killed... What did he do in the future that made Jiang Cheng so terrified?
Since that's the case, the rest is quite simple. Jiang Cheng's physical problems are not difficult to solve. As for the aftereffects, they can be directly addressed by flushing out the energy and letting the Holy Mark heal itself.
The power of the Stigmata is so far very comprehensive. Using a medical device that is not up to standard might actually prevent its potential from being fully realized.
Even if Jiang Cheng doesn't need to fight, after suffering so much this time, he should enjoy the release of his potential after the battle.
Moreover, the remaining problems cannot be repaired by instruments, even with the specialized equipment for airlifting snakes from around the world.
Essentially, it's due to the body being excessively exploited, coupled with the genes of the Holy Mark, making recovery even more difficult than for a Fusion Warrior. All Mistelin can do is stabilize her condition as much as possible, speeding up the recovery time and ensuring a more complete body repair—once the energy has accumulated sufficiently, she can let the boy rest quietly. The remaining few issues are…
Are you both going to stay here?
It was actually just a polite inquiry.
The rooms here are very large; they can comfortably accommodate not only two people, but also dozens of people standing together waiting.
But it is clear that for the two girls, being able to wait for Jiang Cheng to wake up here is a privilege that proves their status.
As the first person the boy sees when he wakes up, even if he doesn't have this thought, not everyone can tolerate their love rival being with them.
As a result, Yae Sakura naturally left on her own initiative.
She bowed slightly and walked out of the room.
Now that everything that can be done has been done, what happens next is beyond the control of individual will.
of course.
Before leaving, he was also ordered by the girl—
"Take that knife with you. I never want to see that weapon again! At least not now!"
After the existence of Jizo Mitama was discovered, it was also deprived of the opportunity to stay in the room and wait for Jiang Cheng.
Rather, it's more accurate to say that as one of the individuals who conspired with Yae Sakura to deceive her, leading to Jiang Cheng being raped, the fact that she wasn't so angry as to want to break it was already because she had indeed contributed.
But that has already exhausted all the impression points that killing Otto could bring to Jizo Mitama.
……
……
……
"call……"
With one last deep breath, expelling the nutrient solution he hadn't fully absorbed, Jiang Cheng, his body brimming with energy after each flow, finally opened his eyes. He subconsciously sat up, raising his upper body, and the first thing he saw was a girl with long, warm, and fantastical purple hair under the dazzling dark gold sunlight—she was quietly lying by the bed, her hands crossed as a pillow, her face resting on them.
Without thinking or hesitating, even with sleepy eyes, the girl's image was clearly imprinted in his mind. His hazy memories returned instantly, and the name entered his heart.
—It's Raiden Mei.
It feels like this isn't the first time I've seen it...
The boy instinctively wanted to move his body to make room for the girl.
Carefully, gently, even her breathing became extremely faint, she found a soft white pillow beside her to replace the uneven board...
"Cough cough..."
—An uncontrollable sore throat interrupted everything.
The hand that was immediately covered to cover the mouth not only failed to stop the sound, but also made the coughing sound more muffled. After the hand was separated, there were still some traces of blood on the palm, which were flowing out from between the fingers.
So, there were some aftereffects after all?
It was worth it.
Since I didn't die anyway, I traded some side effects for Otto.
This is something that only I can do, and must do, and I cannot trust anyone else.
Jiang Cheng has no regrets about this, nor does he regret correcting the excessive mosquito population. For mosquitoes that can kill people, it is not an exaggeration to use an anti-aircraft gun to kill them.
Anyway, he only needs to bear this side effect. After this battle, there will be no need to fight any more battles. As long as his body is not paralyzed and he is not truly disabled on top of his existing disability, he will be fine. From the moment he prepared the medicine, he was already prepared to be injured.
Fortunately, Mei is still resting and probably hasn't seen it, otherwise she would be worried.
Ahhh... 贴0嬴氵ba7$Isan
I still don't know how to talk about Sakura.
It is no longer possible to shirk responsibility.
Jiang Cheng glanced at the quiet girl one last time, found a tissue on the bedside table, wiped away the blood, and threw it into the trash can before gently closing his eyes.
……
……
It wasn't until Jiang Cheng lay down again that the girl, who had been sleeping peacefully on the bed, opened her eyes.
The blood reflected in my pupils was strikingly clear.
It is the blood of Jiangcheng.
Raiden Mei inwardly hated her own powerlessness. Every time she felt a wound on the boy's face with her fingertips, every time she gently smelled a scent on the boy that was not hers, her clenched teeth tightened even more, and her soft and precious lips were almost bitten through.
Originally as delicate and soft as a pianist's fingers, it was a part that needed to be carefully protected, but it was destroyed by its owner without any regard for its well-being.
But all of these combined are not as important as a single wound or a single hair on the boy's body.
