When Aranza woke up, seven days had passed unconsciously.
He had a long dream.
The world in the dream was pure white, and in the center of the pure white stood a huge stone pillar. He didn't know how to describe this stone pillar. At least, it was impossible to carve such a gorgeous but clean masterpiece with human craftsmanship.
Above the stone pillar, a dark gray light group floated quietly.
Mother?
The faint light emitted by the light group dispersed and fell a little on Aranza. It was a familiar feeling. A feeling that I had never experienced before, but still felt familiar.
He thought of his mother. He wanted to get close to the light group and seek answers there. But the distance that was clearly within reach seemed extremely far when he tried to touch her, but Aranza still struggled and tried to reach out to the light group.
This simple action took seven days in real time.
When he finally touched the light group, there was no joy in his heart. Everything stopped suddenly, and the light group quickly retreated as if it was sucked into a black hole, until it turned into a point that was invisible even to the naked eye.
Then, a person Aranza had never seen before suddenly appeared in the gap between the light groups. No, it should be that the surrounding pure white suddenly disappeared, revealing the huge figure hiding there. It
Its upper body is golden, just like cast gold, and its lower body is hidden in pure white. Its face is covered with countless faces, different expressions, and different emotions. At a certain moment, all the faces are covered with countless faces.
All unclear eyes fell on Aranza.
Aranza didn't know who it was.
He was as small as dust before it.
He felt afraid. Already terrified. It was as if the monster in front of him could annihilate him at any time. It was true annihilation, more terrifying than death. But exactly how terrifying it was, Aranza couldn't say at all. In fact, he didn't even know there was anything worse than death.
Something more terrifying.
However, at this moment, the dream suddenly faded away like a tide. It was like everything had never happened.
The hot sunlight passes through the narrow window and gathers in front of the window.
When her eyes opened again, Aranza saw Cyril standing in front of the bed.
"Are you awake?"
She still wasn't that talkative. It was just the worry and surprise in her voice that she expressed to Aranza without hiding it.
Aranza smiled at Cyril, and then slowly propped up his body. He could feel the faint pain coming from his chest. At this moment, Aranza was lifting her upper body. He looked down at his body and found that there were three more strips on his chest.
Thin scars. Those are the scratches left by the poisonous devil's claws.
Cyril handed over a glass of water and said: "Lawrence cured your poison, but because the poison was so powerful, the scar cannot be removed."
Aranza nodded, took the water, took a sip, and asked, "How long have I been unconscious?"
"Seven days."
"Seven days?!"
Aranza then realized the seriousness of the matter and asked hurriedly: "Where is the Poison Demon? Where are the others?"
Of course Cyril knew what Aranza wanted to ask, and replied: "The Poison Demon was killed by Feiya, but the Marquis said she used some power and is now resting. You can't disturb her."
Hearing this, Aranza smiled bitterly, it seemed that he owed someone another favor.
Cyril continued: "Elita and Li were found in that ship. They will come to see you once a day and should be back soon. Nicole is locked in the cell behind the war room and has not been interrogated yet.
.Carew, it’s still the same. The Marquis asked you to take over Feiya’s affairs and handle these things.”
Aranza gathered her thoughts slightly. But she looked at Cyril with a smile and said, "What about you?"
"I?"
"Well, I saw you as soon as I woke up."
"..."
I don’t know if Cyril’s face hidden under the mask turned slightly red at this time, but she said: “I have always been here.”
Aranza slowly climbed out of bed. The wound on his chest was no longer serious, but the hunger in his belly made him unable to lift it up. He stood up straight with difficulty, but the first thing he did was to unceremoniously
Hold Cyril in his arms.
This was the first time the girl was hugged. She stood stiffly and let Aranza hold her. Then, she felt Aranza pat her back, and the heat from his body was separated.
Aranza stroked the wolf skin decoration behind Cyril's wolf head mask and said, "Well, let's go eat something first. I'm hungry."
As a result, not long after the two left the room, the door was pushed open again.
It was Ilita and the Fulan girl sitting on her shoulders, Li, who came through the door.
The empty bed stunned both Ilat and Li. Then, Ilat said softly: "He's awake."
There was a look of disdain on Li's face and she said, "Otherwise the bed will be empty?"
Ilita did not continue to answer Li's words, but just stared at the empty bed for a moment, then turned and left. Feeling that the path the two of them took was clearly back to the room that Fiya had arranged for them, Li couldn't help but wonder: "Don't you
Are you going to find that fancy carrot?"
Elita shook her head and said: "Next time, I still... don't know how to face him."
"What's not easy to face..." Li pouted, looking confused.
On the other side, Aranza and Cyril walked to the restaurant on the deck with great difficulty, because almost every mercenary they saw along the way would come over and greet Aranza loudly, and take care of Aranza's health.
Situation. Aranza didn't know why he was so loved by the mercenaries. This was not a bad thing. He always had a smile on his face and responded politely to the mercenaries who communicated with him one by one.
When she finally sat in the restaurant and looked at the food in front of her, Aranza had the urge to burst into tears...
He did not gobble it up, but ate slowly. Aranza needed to slowly regulate the functions of her stomach. However, during the meal, Aranza suddenly noticed that the Black Pearl was shaking very slightly. So she asked Cyril in confusion: "Black Pearl"
The ship hasn’t left the island yet?”
Cyril nodded and said: "The Marquis said that you need to finish interrogating Nicole before deciding whether to sail."
Hearing this, Aranza couldn't laugh or cry for a while. But thinking about it, he had many questions and needed to find answers from Nicole: "Well, let's go over and take a look after eating."
The place where Nicole was imprisoned was just after the war room on the first floor. After passing through an equipment room, it was the holding room. The designer of the Black Pearl was definitely a fanatic who was keen on torturing prisoners. The holding room and equipment room
The result of connecting them together is that people can find many unexpected gadgets in the instrument room and torture prisoners in various ways.
Of course, Aranza did not intend to torture Nicole. He had a better idea, an idea that came to mind when he fought Nicole seven days ago.
