The sound of the collision woke Cassia up. When she opened her eyes, she saw a blur of color inside. She blinked hard and felt a little better.
There was still pain in his stomach. After lying there for more than half a minute, Cassia finally remembered what had happened. His breathing was not smooth, and the white light from the lamp reminded Cassia that he was indeed lying in a refrigerator-like box.
in objects.
"We will inject you with a large amount of inhibitors, which will seriously affect your life activities. Coupled with our surgical technology, we can make you appear in a state of suspended animation for a few hours. Of course, this is not enough to fool the Saint.
If you don't like those people, we will disguise you as a corpse and send it to the corpse storage room of the military school. There are a group of students who died on the mission and need to be sent away. If you mix in, there will be almost no problems. "
Cassia recalled what the old professors at the military school told him: "I will prepare a few sedatives for you. When you wake up from the state of suspended animation, remember to inject them in time, which can help you regain some strength quickly. After all,
You have to cut your body open and be in a cold environment for several hours. After being in suspended animation, you won't be able to withstand that kind of environment."
Enduring the pain from her stomach, Cassia struggled to hold up her body. As expected, her abdomen was cut open, and she could see the protective tissue of the internal organs that had turned white from the cold. The feeling of coldness was only now felt along with the pain.
Come, Cassia closed the long wound with his hand, and the strange feeling of flesh and blood sticking together again made him lie down to rest for a while.
After feeling around in her pants, Cassia found the sedatives and injected them all. Her stiff body, which was close to freezing point, began to thaw and quickly returned to body temperature, but the recovery of strength seemed to be slower.
"Old professors really dare to do such a thing." Cassia touched the gash on her stomach. The healing speed there was affected by her own condition and was a little slower than usual, but it was still an astonishing speed. How many times did it heal?
Minutes later, the separated flesh and blood have bonded together, and a layer of coagulated blood scab appears on the wound. In less than a few minutes, there will be only thin lines of fresh flesh and blood left there, and finally they disappear.
"Remember to take a good rest after you go out. The state of suspended animation is uncomfortable. It's better not to leave you with any sequelae. But for you, we think there shouldn't be any problem. At most, it will only consume a little more physical energy."
These were the last words Cassia heard.
The sound of collisions from time to time made Cassia feel the passage of time. When his strength reached the usual seventh or eighth level, he buttoned up the mechanical watch in his trouser pocket, and it showed that the time was already nine o'clock in the morning the next day.
The professors expected the time to be one o'clock in the morning. Jumping down from the shelf where the corpses were placed, Cassia looked at the corpses with skin turning bluish white around them and murmured.
"Is this the ration? I really don't know if I will ever have such a day."
I asked those old professors what the specific meaning of "rations" was, and they answered easily: "The empire has raised so many dragons, we can't let them starve, right? Otherwise, the empire's constant production of tranquilizers will require surgeries.
Where do all kinds of hormones and related tissues come from? One corpse of surgeons like you can allow a dragon to maintain basic life activities for more than half a year, which can be regarded as slightly reducing the shortage of things. But keeping dragons in captivity
The main source of food for human beings is those second-class creatures, and there are institutions dedicated to producing these foods. If possible, soon the military school will issue the first joint mission to you students of this period, which is about these
You have to be careful. The difficulty of the task has been directly increased a lot. In the end, either you will become food, or those second-type creatures will become food. Based on our many years of experience, the proportion should be more for you. But
It cannot be ruled out that we are wrong, after all, in this period, anything can happen."
"It's just a pity that I won't be able to participate in this mission." Cassia glanced at the corpses, most of which had broken parts, and said. He moved his body, walked to the door of the refrigerator, and listened to the noise outside.
Everything went well, and he is still on the transport vehicle. After pretending to be dead, he had indeed deceived the people in the church.
"Then we will wait for the transport vehicle to stop at the airship, and then quietly leave while gathering the corpses." Cassia sat down on the spot and waited for the time to come.
Three hours later, Cassia left the airship port on the Bru River and returned to the secret villa base at noon.
After arriving at the underground cold storage, relying on the concentrated dragon blood, Cassia completely restored her physical condition to normal, then went to the lobby and contacted Delya and the others.
"It's over for me." Cassia breathed a sigh of relief, but there was still something tightly pressed on her chest that she didn't spit out.
"Captain, we have contacted Sotagang, but he did not bring any good news. According to the information he provided, he cannot contact anyone now. He did not reveal too much. He left his contact information for you.
Get in touch with him as soon as possible." Delya replied, "As for the books you mentioned about the leader, I was lucky enough to buy one in the dark world, which is about the study of ancient ruins. As for other series of books,
There is no news yet. But it probably won’t be easy to collect. This book cost nearly half a million holy coins to get. Their value seems to be a little beyond my expectation. It seems to be something that has some time, which can be
I’ve come to collect many cultural relics.”
"Don't worry about the money." Cassia smiled, "Have you seen the seller?"
"It was bought through a black market middleman." Delya knew what Cassia was worried about. "We have already done the follow-up processing, and the books have been completely checked, and no tricks have been done. The seller wants to track us, is
It’s completely impossible.”
"It's handled very well. You should also pay more attention to the collection of other books. These things may involve something, so please be careful."
Turning off the communicator, Cassia took out juice and food from the refrigerator to fill her stomach.
After returning to the room, he took out the detailed map of the empire and a thick geographical information book he bought when he came back to look through it.
It took Cassia a lot of time to find the place name that Shako mentioned - near a mountain range in the Borghese region.
"The volcanic zone?" Cassia compared the map, because the specific location has long been lost in history over time, and the detailed place names mentioned by the first generation of Knight King Grote cannot be studied anymore. Cassia based on the original Grote
After telling him some geographical features, he finally determined a rough range, and then found some relevant brief information in geographical information books.
His mother and sister were being looked after by someone else, and he planned to wait until the whole thing came to an end before picking them up. While waiting, he planned to first try to find what Grote had left for him.
