At the same time (?), in the forest of stone pillars in the Red Sea, in the common room of the Dawn.
Bediwell sat aside and ate the pastry quietly, putting the soft and sweet cake into his throat along with the cola. Because the sweetness of the iced Photon Coke was greatly diluted, Bediwell didn't find it too sweet.
He ate a lot of cake. Although his carbohydrate intake was seriously over the limit, because he only ate dinner like this once in a while, the werewolf youth didn't pay much attention to it.
On the side, Kate, Hal and other little kids were happily playing cards. Because there were more children on the Dawn, even playing such an ordinary game was particularly lively. There were also several decks of card games next to the coffee table.
, including checkers and the so-called "Real Estate Tycoon" chess and cards. It seems that these are specially prepared by Lawrence for the children, in case the little ones get tired of playing cards and want to play something else.
The video game console placed aside has not been touched. It seems that Paramedis bought it for the little devils to play. Unfortunately, it can only be played by two people. When there are more people, only two of them can play, and the others can only play.
Being able to watch from the sidelines, the little ghosts started playing the game and no one was convinced by the other. They were fighting for the controller and it hurt their feelings. In the end, Lawrence banned it. In the end, the little ghosts were only allowed to play games in groups within a specific time. But now
This time period was not the time specified by Lawrence, so no one dared to touch the game console.
"Meow~" Kate and the others were halfway through playing cards when the kitten he raised suddenly ran to the coffee table and lay on the cards playfully. Because the black cat was so cute, the little devils not only did not chase it away, but
He put down the cards in his hand and went over to pet the cat. He laughed non-stop around a kitten.
Children are good. Bedivere thought to himself. He can play with anything all day long and never get tired of it. He remembered that his son Husky used to be like this, laughing and chasing a little rabbit in the snow for a long time.
What fun is there in having fun in such an inexplicable way? As an adult, Bedivere couldn't even understand.
He took another big sip of Photon Coke, and then let out a long burp. This burp made the kids laugh, and Kate actually complained: "Uncle Wolf is so rude, burping openly in a place like this."
"What? Do I have to run into the bathroom to burp when I burp? Do you also run into the bathroom to fart?" Bediwell complained.
"No, meow? That's gas emissions after all, meow." Hal (now disguised as a golem) asked mechanically.
"Yes, I'm very sorry, I actually burped in public. I'll pay attention next time." Bedivere replied jokingly, knowing that the kiddies were teasing him.
The little devils laughed evilly.
Bedivere was too lazy to play with the brats and finished eating and drinking the remaining pastries and drinks before preparing to leave. After all, he still had a mission to complete tonight. When Merlin was ready, he would go to the Battleship Britannia.
Join Arthur and the others.
At this time, Elaine passed by carrying a sports bag, hurriedly took out a bottle of Coke from the refrigerator, drank it down, and wanted to leave.
"Oh, Elaine." The werewolf youth glanced at the white bear man: "Have you had dinner? Where do you plan to go?"
"Well, get out, get out." The white bear replied.
"Going out at this time?" Bediwell lowered his voice and asked, "Didn't Merlin tell you that your current situation is not normal and not to run around to avoid causing trouble? Are you going out at this time? And what about tonight's [action]?
Yes, don’t you plan to participate?”
"No, no. Of course I will participate." Elaine shook her head awkwardly: "But before participating, um, I have to meet Lei, Leo."
"Going at this time?"
"Just, I have to go at this time." Elaine said with a bitter face: "[Operation] is risky. I may not be able to come back, right?"
This seems to be true. If Elaine's consciousness is lost in a different world nine hundred years later, he may never have the chance to see Leoport.
Although the probability of that happening is extremely small.
"I understand. If you want to say goodbye, go ahead. Go back as soon as possible." Bedivere sighed: "After eight o'clock in the evening, let's meet at the battleship Britannia."
"Yeah, yeah." The white bear man nodded, turned around and wanted to leave.
"But what's in that sports bag you're carrying?" Bedivere suddenly asked curiously.
"Uh, um," Elaine replied hesitantly: "A change of clothes."
"Huh? Why do you bring that kind of thing? ------Wait, don't answer me. I don't want to know." The werewolf young man rolled his eyes at the white bear man angrily: "Leo is a good boy, don't do anything bad."
oh."
"Well, well." Elaine blushed and walked away. She happened to meet the young Leopard man Queeg in the corridor holding a box of Photon Coke. The two looked at each other and immediately pretended to pass by as if nothing had happened.
"It's so strange." Bedivere stared at Elaine's retreating back, then looked back and forth at Queeg: "Did something happen between you two?"
"No, no." Quigg looked innocent, with cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.
Twenty minutes later, on the roof of the Cairo Hotel.
As if he knew that Elaine would appear here from the beginning, the White Bear had just used the teleportation beam to land on the apron on the roof of the building, and the Snow Lion girl Sherry Chad appeared not far away. She was wearing a white evening dress and
Her coat color matches perfectly.
"Hello, Snow, Miss Snow Richard." Elaine nodded awkwardly in greeting, a little afraid to look at the other person.
"I knew you would come." Sherrichard replied coldly: "You're here to see Leo, right?"
"Uh, um." The white bear man nodded again: "He's okay, okay?"
"He can't die yet. Come with me." The snow lion turned around and walked away, saying as he walked: "So you also failed."
"Um?"
"I originally planned to let the kid go with you. I hoped that he would stay on the Dawn and completely forget about the game. Unfortunately, he is a stubborn person and will do what he promised even if he loses his life. I didn't succeed.
Even if you try to dissuade him, it seems you can't do it."
Elaine said nothing.
"The result is the same. We can only watch him go to destruction, but we can do nothing. In order to fulfill his promise, he participated in that meaningless death match. He was injured on the field and his body became tattered. And we can only stand by and watch.
." Sherrichard groaned: "Is there no one in the world who can stop him?"
Elaine continued to remain silent. Until the notice was received at noon, the White Bear people did not know what Leo had done. When Leo left, he said goodbye to Elaine for the last time. At that time, even a clumsy guy like Elaine could
I could vaguely feel the realization in the lion boy's eyes.
At that time, Elaine clearly had a way to retain Leo. At that time, the Golden Lion probably also hoped that Elaine would retain him. Even if the White Bear said one more word and asked Leo to stay, things might become exactly the same as they are now.
It was different. But at that time, Elaine was only focused on studying and was absent-minded, completely missing the opportunity. So Leo left, and I am afraid that there will be no chance to return to the Dawn in the future.
Sister Xue Rui pinned her hopes on Elaine, hoping that Elaine could retain Leo Porter, who had a tendency to commit suicide. Unfortunately, Elaine, a heartless guy, didn't even retain him, leaving Leo in this way.
Let's go. If Sister Xue Rui knew about this, she would probably be furious.
While the white bear man shuddered, he also felt a sadness coming over him.
Sherrichard walked to an employee-only elevator on the top floor of the hotel, swiped a special magnetic card, and opened the elevator door: "He was seriously injured in today's game, and his internal organs were the most serious. We can only
He was put into a life-support cabin, and special drugs were used to maintain his life and heal his wounds bit by bit. But I have to remind you that his physical condition is not optimistic. His body was already on the verge of collapse.
On the edge, he only has less than a year left to live. If he goes through this again today, his body will be one step closer to complete collapse."
Snow Lion looked up at the floor panel above the elevator and said thoughtfully: "Probably, he only has less than three months left to live."
Elaine muttered softly.
"Don't worry." Sherrichard said with a wry smile. At this time, the elevator door also opened. She led Elaine into a large, dark room in the employee area: "Leo's room is in front of you. I have to remind you before going in.
, the scene inside may not be so pleasant."
"No, not pleasant?" The white bear looked confused.
"You'll understand after you go in and take a look." Snow Lion sighed, took a large bath towel from one side of the room, and handed it to Elaine: "Leo also had a day of treatment, and it's almost time to wake up. I'll
I won’t disturb you anymore, just go in and see him alone.”
"Yeah, yeah." The white bear man nodded and walked slowly towards the small door at the end of the room.
After making up his mind, the white bear slowly pushed them open. In another smaller room behind the door, it turned out to be ------
There are countless small containers filled with various replacement organs, as well as a young lion man soaked in some kind of life-sustaining fluid in the distance.
"Woo!" Because the first thing that caught Elaine's eyes was the contents of those small containers, the white bear man almost vomited it out.
Various organs should be cultivated through cell replication to replace the inner parts of the constantly destroyed lion boy, in order to achieve the purpose of extending Leoport's life. But judging from the number of these replicated organs,
, Leo has undergone this kind of surgery countless times, but his body still has not improved, and he is still dragging his broken body to survive.
Probably, as long as Leopold's physical condition does not improve for one day, no amount of internal organ transplant surgery can solve the problem. Operating the knife again and again will only increase his pain.
As Elaine closed the door behind him, Leoport, who was soaking in the container in the distance, gradually woke up. The liquid in the life-saving cabin was drained away, and the lion-man boy slowly took off his breathing mask.
Falling out of the open container. (To be continued)
