The adventurer is coming Chapter 503

"Dr. Azma pushed the stretcher into the operating room, and the body under the white cloth trembled slightly as the wheels rolled.

He didn't turn on the headlights, he just snapped his fingers.

"Pah."

Above the operating table in the center of the room, a circle of shadowless lamps inlaid with luminous fluorite instantly lit up.

The doctor hummed an unknown tune, the melody was brisk but had a strange elegance, like some kind of ancient palace waltz.

He skillfully transferred the patient on the stretcher to the operating table, as gently as if he were carrying a fragile piece of porcelain, rather than a bloody injured person.

"Be patient, my friend."

Dr. Azma said as he turned around and walked towards the alchemy workbench next to him.

"It looks a little scary, but if you do it right, you won't even get a scar. Trust me, I'm pretty good at stitches and that kind of thing."

He turned his back to the room, seemingly unaware of anything strange here, and began to prepare surgical instruments.

The crisp sound of metal collision continued one after another.

Scalpel, hemostatic forceps, bone saw, drainage tube...

This series of creepy tools seemed to come to life in his hands, arranged obediently on the tray.

"Speaking of which, Ruiwen, where did that child go?"

He shook his head and said to himself, "She has never been used to such lively occasions. It's not surprising that she can't find anyone. She must have been hiding in a corner to count ants."

The doctor turned around and faced the patient on the operating table again.

"Okay, let's get started."

In a large wardrobe two meters away from the operating table.

Xia Lin was looking through the small crack in the door, holding his breath and watching everything outside.

In fact, he had no intention of hiding.

Although it was indeed awkward to be in a secret room with a naked woman, Ruiwen's injuries were serious and it was the safest choice to let the doctor handle it himself.

However, just when he was about to speak.

Ruiwen suddenly grabbed his wrist.

The next second, space distorted.

[Dimensional Jump].

When Xia Lin came back to his senses, he and Ruiwen had been stuffed into this small closet. Together with the robe and underwear she had just taken off, they were all teleported over.

The space inside the wardrobe was not spacious to begin with, but now that two people were crammed into it, it seemed even more crowded.

The air was filled with the smell of old wood. But underneath, there was another smell.

That is the unique aura of Ruiwen.

It was neither the warm body fragrance of a living person nor the rotten smell of a corpse, but a cool smell similar to lilies wetted by rain, mixed with cold antiseptic.

"Well..." Xia Lin lowered his voice, almost speaking with air, "Why don't we go out."

"No..."

Ruiwen's voice sounded in his ears, with a trembling determination.

"Can't... let... the doctor... see... me... like this."

"Otherwise... he would be worried."

Xia Lin sighed.

(Is this the so-called rebellion in adolescence? Even if your body is about to fall apart, you don't want your parents to see you in a mess?)

At this moment, the two people's postures were extremely ambiguous.

Xia Lin had his back against the side panel of the closet, while Ruiwen was squeezed in front of him, face to face.

Because the space is so small, there is not even a trace of extra space between them.

Ruiwen's loose black robe was currently draped over the shoulders of the two of them, like a temporary tent, shrouding them together.

And underneath the robe...

Xia Lin It is very clear that she is still naked.

Although there was a thin layer of fabric, he could still clearly feel the outline of the other person's body.

Ruiwen is very tall, even half a head taller than Xia Lin.

But in this environment, she arched her back obediently and shrank her whole body, like a large doll trying to hide herself.

That astonishing plumpness pressed tightly against Xia Lin's chest, and as she breathed rapidly, a suffocating sense of oppression continued to spread.

But it's too cold.

That's a low temperature that can penetrate the bone marrow.

The touch is like hugging a beautiful marble statue.

This weird experience, like dating in a morgue, is really uninteresting.

Ruiwen seems to be aware of this.

She rubbed back carefully, trying to leave as much space as possible to avoid too much physical contact.

"I've read... those... books..."

She whispered in the darkness, her voice hoarse but serious. "... If we don't... distance ourselves... we will soon..."

"Okay, stop talking..."

Xia Lin interrupted her.

If he allowed her to continue talking, he was afraid that he would be unable to help but ask her what kind of book she was reading.

"Are you okay now?"

He still remembered that a few minutes ago, the sutures on this guy's body collapsed and his whole body looked like it was about to fall apart.

"So... much..."

Ruiwen nodded, and his chin gently brushed Xia Lin's shoulder.

"The... seed... effect... is pretty good."

She reached out her hand and lifted a corner of the fabric covering her body in the darkness.

"Look."

The pink light instantly fills the entire wardrobe.

That [Overbred Life Pod] is being held tightly in Ruiwen's arms right now, stuck in the bottomless ravine.

The seed pod is like a beating heart, contracting and expanding rhythmically, releasing a pink energy flow visible to the naked eye with every beat.

Those energy flows flowed along Ruiwen's pale skin and penetrated into the cracked wounds.

The originally smoldering wounds are healing rapidly under the nourishment of these energies full of original vitality.

Those black necromantic threads also became tough again, automatically tightening, pulling the split skin back together.

"Well... Okay, I know you are old enough."

Xia Lin quickly looked away.

He quietly opened [Item Appraisal] and scanned the status of Ruiwen.

[Ruiwen]

[Status: Life Energy is being supplemented]

[Note: It is recovering, but it will take time. In addition, you two are now shrouded in Death Soul Sprite's unique "Existence Concealment", and people outside cannot detect you.]

After confirming that she was indeed recovering, Xia Lin also breathed a sigh of relief.

Since it's safe for now, let's do something serious.

"Then you continue to absorb energy and don't move around."

"Hmm."

Ruiwen responded obediently and closed his swirling eyes again, as if he was enjoying some kind of comfortable hot spring bath.

Xia Lin turned his attention back to the operating room outside the door.

Through the crack in the door, he clearly saw the scene on the operating table.

Dr. Azma has cut off the patient's clothes.

Xia Lin squinted his eyes and turned on the identification.

[human injury]

Status: Severe magic burns, vitality depleted, soul damaged [Note: Hit by a high-level fire spell from the front, not only the body, but also part of the soul was scorched. Ordinary Divine Art cannot be cured at all, just wait for death.]

However, Dr. Azma's expression was unusually relaxed.

He was even humming a tune, his slender hands flying among various bottles and jars, as if he was mixing a cocktail.

"Don't worry, my friend..."

The doctor said to himself, as if lecturing to the air. "We need a little... more powerful catalyst."

He turned around and took out an ancient-looking black iron box from the lower cabinet.

The moment the box is opened.

Suddenly, a strong smell of rust hit my face.

Xia Lin's pupils shrank suddenly.

This smell... he has smelled it before.

It was exactly this kind of atmosphere on the previous ship "Medicine Supply Ship".

The doctor did not notice the prying eyes.

He used tweezers to pick up a piece of dark red Crystallization body from the box, picked it up with tweezers, and carefully applied it on the blade of the scalpel.

Then, he snapped his fingers.

A gray light flashed from the blade.

There was no explosion, and there was no strong fluctuation of magic power. The gray light just flashed away and disappeared into the patient's body.

But the moment the gray light appeared.

"Boom!!!"

Xia Lin The familiar rage exploded in his mind again!

More intense and crazier than last time!

An uncontrollable rage exploded along Xia Lin's spine!

"Ugh!"

Xia Lin had no time to react.

His body grabbed forward uncontrollably, which was his instinct to seek cover or weapons when faced with extreme threats.

And in that narrow closet, the only thing he could grab was Ruiwen in front of him.

His arms tightened suddenly.

He tightly strangled the tall figure into his arms.

"Crack

The wardrobe made a soft sound.

The two fit together instantly. There was no gap, they were a perfect fit.

Xia Lin buried his face in Ruiwen's chest, panting heavily, trying his best to suppress the violent emotions surging in his body.

After a few seconds, the feeling of losing control subsided.

Sanity returns.

Xia Lin Only then did he realize how bad his current posture was.

"Well... I'm sorry..."

He quickly relaxed his strength and his voice was hoarse.

"Just now... I got a little out of control."

However, the expected rejection did not appear.

Instead of hiding away, the person in his arms became a little strange.

"It's okay..."

Ruiwen's voice is still hoarse, but now it is sweeter and moister than ever before.

Those swirling eyes slowly opened.

But the originally deep black in those eyes was now covered by a layer of faint pink, and the originally static vortex suddenly began to spin crazily, trying to suck in the human soul.

"I... feel... good."

"No, what's going on?"

Xia Lin subconsciously wanted to retreat and distance himself.

However, the next second, Ruiwen's slender legs suddenly moved.

"Pah."

Two slender and powerful thighs suddenly wrapped around Xia Lin's thighs.

"Don't... stay... too far... from me..."

Ruiwen murmured in a low voice, and wrapped his arms around Xia Lin's neck, pulling him closer.

Xia Lin lowered his head.

I could see that [Overbred Life Pod] on her chest was pulsing rapidly through the thin layer of fabric.

The originally soft pink light became dazzling and Berserk.

"So that's what it is..."

Ruiwen's body began to feel warm.

It was not the normal body temperature of a living person, but a strange touch between ice and fire.

This extreme contrast, combined with her incredibly soft body, created a fatal attraction.

Xia Lin's breathing began to become heavier.

He felt that his sanity was eroding little by little.

That seed...

It is not only providing Life Energy, but also releasing some kind of pheromones to the surroundings!

(Damn... this thing was originally dug out of that mother plant...Master Laura also reminded me before)

He wanted to push Ruiwen away, but Ruiwen moved first.

She raised her head slightly, her cold lips close to Xia Lin's earlobe.

moist.

Across the door, the respected Saint Doctor was concentrating on the operation.

And in the dark closet, the doctor's most trusted assistant was holding an intruder by his waist.

Ruiwen also seems to have noticed the changes in Xia Lin.

She snapped her fingers, and a silent barrier enveloped the two of them.

[Small-Range Silence Spell]

All sounds are blocked.

No matter how much noise happens inside, people outside will never hear it.

This behavior completely shattered Xia Lin's last line of defense.

Where is this Death Soul Sprite who doesn't know the world? This is obviously a veteran!

"Damn..."

Xia Lin breathed heavily, stared at the pink Swirl Eyes, gritted his teeth and cursed in his heart, "What kind of bad novel are you reading?!"

In this case, fuck the doctors, fuck the sanity, and doubly fuck the shame.

He lifted up the covering robe Ruiwen was wearing.
