Healing Wounds

Ghost Stories

A very important point lies in the word 'strange'.

It was completely different from the Destiny Event that Han Dong had experienced, and also different from the evil spirits, Wild Monster, or even higher-level demons outside the city.

The "strangeness" here manifests in its form, abilities, and even the most basic cognition.

This renders some conventional combat experience ineffective.

You need to understand the essence of the ghost stories through various details during battles and find the correct way to deal with them... One wrong move and your life will be in danger.

This cannot be solved by fists alone.

The "Tales of the Strange - The Ghost" event is complete, along with a Hidden Event.

Han Dong has overexerted his physical and Seed Energy and needs to rest for a while.

Mia was the most seriously injured.

He suffered multiple cuts to his body, including several knife wounds on his waist and abdomen, which even revealed the internal organs. He was only given simple hemostasis with Spider Silk.

at present.

Mia is receiving medical treatment inside Mr. Aha's "shop".

In terms of gains, this trip was very worthwhile.

By paying a 10-point advance, Mia acquired ownership of the demon sword... Even Though after being sent back to the shop and becoming disoriented, Mia still held the demon sword tightly in her arms, refusing to let anyone touch it.

in addition.

Han Dong did his best to help Mr. Aha in the Hidden Event... whether it was scouting, killing enemies, or finally gaining control of the "skin" and the hot spring hotel, Han Dong made contributions.

The intimacy level between the two went directly from "neutral" to "friendly".

Han Dong's team enjoys a 10% discount on all purchases at any store within the park.

"Shop - Miscellaneous Items Room"

Out of consideration for Han Dong's great help, Mr. Aha temporarily lent Han Dong his Miscellaneous Items Room and some low-value medical equipment.

Mia was lying on a trolley in the Miscellaneous Items Room.

A large amount of blood had already flowed from her body, and she was extremely weak... Even Though her body was pale and trembling, she still held onto the demon sword tightly, afraid that someone else would take it away.

Mr. Aha only provides the venue and some materials; he naturally won't help with the treatment.

Mia was originally a support medical staff member in the team.

Abel and Winry knew nothing about medicine; they could only take medicine and nothing else.

The task of treating Mia's injuries naturally fell to Han Dong.

At least, Han Dong had no problems with the details of the operation. During his lifetime, he had dissected no less than five thousand mice and performed some simple animal suturing surgeries.

During the medical treatment, the Storage Room was locked, leaving only two people inside.

Han Dong's gaze never wavered or wandered, meticulously sweeping over all the wounds on Mia's body.

"Fifty... three wounds, and at least ten of them were very deep."

The cold air seeped into his body, and he was only able to hold on thanks to the Little Spider inside him and the curse.

Even in this state, it can still maintain the normal functioning of most bodily functions; truly worthy of being called a "Insect Possessed."

Find a small desk lamp that can provide ample light.

Then, using a Fine Threads found in the Storage Room that helps with healing, the wound was stitched up.

The surgery lasted eight hours.

Han Dong sewed every stitch with great care, and with the help of Mia's Insectoid- like self-healing ability, the surgery was a great success.

The only thing that's hard to get rid of is the coldness inside the body.

At times like these, we absolutely cannot allow Togu to come and inject lava energy.

Not only will it not neutralize... it will actually cause Mia to die.

"The stitching is complete... Now Mia can only rely on herself to slowly expel the cold from her body, which may take more than a day."

Han Dong, also looking exhausted, carried the light-bodied Mia on his back and left the Storage Room.

"Thank you Mr. Aha, we'll be going now..."

"Ah... Keep this safe."

Mr. Aha kept his promise and handed a Prajna Mask to Han Dong, asking Miss Chen Li to refine the evil energy within and make it her own.

"Thanks."

"I hope we can continue to cooperate in the future, young man." Mr. Aha waved goodbye to Han Dong.

We can't linger in the Shop Area; if other groups of prisoners come looking for us, things will get really complicated.

"Is Sister Mia alright?" Wenli stayed at the door waiting.

"It's alright... we just need to give her some time to respond."

During Mia's surgery.

Abel had been crouching on the rooftop of the old building the whole time, monitoring the surroundings in owl mode. He was about to go downstairs to rejoin the team... but Abel seemed a little guilty.

"It's my fault... I missed many opportunities by trying to damage the Huai Tree, and I also failed to do my best to help Mia."

This was also the first time Abel had faced such a strange and unapproachable opponent, and he was somewhat overwhelmed in the battle... While staying on the rooftop to monitor the surrounding situation, Abel kept reflecting on these issues.

When dealing with strange phenomena, you must discard your usual methods of combat.

"It's alright, Mia's recovery ability is much stronger than the average person... Let's find a hotel to rest first."

Wenli immediately came over and said, "Vice Captain, you should rest. Let me carry Sister Mia."

"Um..."

To everyone's surprise, Mia was holding the demon sword in one hand and tightly embracing Han Dong with the other.

Both 'things' seemed to be her treasures, Even Though when she was unconscious, she refused to let go...

Forcibly releasing Mia could cause the wound to tear.

Since that's the case, Han Dong has no choice but to continue carrying it on his back.

However, Mia's body is really light, which may be related to her identity as an "Insect Possessed"... weighing only about 30 kilograms, which is not a problem at all.

For safety reasons.

The hotel only booked one room.

Abel seemed quite uneasy about the strange tales and didn't feel like sleeping... He planned to first inspect the entire hotel to check for the possibility of being followed by the Prisoner Squad.

Winry filled the bathtub with water, locked the door, and enjoyed a blissful private bath.

Therefore, only Mia and Han Dong remained in the room...

When Han Dong tried to gently place Mia on the bed... he didn't expect Mia to still refuse to let go, and dragged Han Dong onto the bed along with her.

In her dazed state, Mia relied on instinct to treat Han Dong as her possession and hugged him tightly from the front.

Just as Han Dong was trying to break free...

Mia, feeling extremely cold due to the excessive coldness in her body and reluctant to part with Han Dong's warmth, pitifully said, "I... I'm cold."

"Woke up?"

Han Dong checked and found that Mia was talking in her sleep.

"Sigh... I just can't do anything with you."

Although Mia's consciousness was blurred during the surgery, she was very clear that Han Dong was stitching up her wounds stitch by stitch, so much so that Han Dong was completely integrated into her subsequent dreams.

Before we knew it, the night had passed.

Mia woke up groggily, but clearly remembered everything that happened in her dream.

Currently, on the large bed.

She was embracing someone, and naturally, she became connected with the characters and stories in her dream.

"Nicholas ..."

Upon waking, Mia immediately took the initiative and got up.

unfortunately.

Beep... The room card swipes.

Han Dong was standing at the door with the hotel breakfast in hand, while Mia, who seemed to have fully recovered Full of Spirit, was hugging Wen Li.
