Light Spirit Epic Chapter 2527: Breakthrough (20)
Chapter 2527 Divorce to Deviance (Twenty)
Leopold's face crossed a sad look that almost made him cry, but it only lasted for half a second. After half a second, his expression recovered, as if nothing had happened.
The ability to instantly calm down can even be said to be a personal specialty.
"Leo...Yes, I'm sorry..." Elaine quickly apologized as she looked at the lion-man boy who was covered in cake crumbs and was extremely embarrassed.
"It's fine." But Leopold said, the sad expression on his face had already calmed down, and he said calmly: "I'm sorry for disturbing your reading. Miss Eve, can I ask you to clean it up? ?"
"Understood, cleaning golems have been sent." Eve replied, and at the same time three scarab golems flew in from outside the room and began to clean the cakes and cake crumbs scattered on the ground.
Leopold also shook off the cake crumbs from his body, and looked at the food that was wasted on the ground with a little regret.
"Reading...isn't it fun, Elaine?" The lion boy sat on the ground, letting the scarab golems smear and sweep his body and clean up the pieces of cake on him. So far: "Before...my body is often uncomfortable, and Sister Xue Rui always forbids me to go out in bad weather, saying that it will have adverse effects on my body. It is too hot to go out, It’s not allowed to go out when it’s raining, it’s not allowed to go out when it’s windy and sandy, and it’s not even allowed to go out when it’s too cold at night. So I have no choice, I often just read at home. So I also like reading books, especially novels--- ---All kinds of hero Tan, all kinds of knight biographies."
Elaine didn't reply, looking at the other party a little blankly, wondering what the meaning of this conversation was.
"What about me...I always think that reading is for fun~IndoMTL.com~ I read it because I like it. But now Elaine...Honestly, I don't think so. Until you have any joy in reading. When you read the book, your face is tense, and you always feel that you are carrying something heavy. You are reading some professional medical books that are so advanced that you do not understand, you are forcing yourself to make I understand."
"I------" Elaine thought about how to answer, but for a while he could not think of a way to answer Leo's question directly without revealing his intentions.
Probably because he's still too stupid.
"You're forcing yourself, Elaine." The lion boy sighed, "you're trying to do what you can't do. And you don't look happy when you do it.. ...even painful."
The white shark fell silent.
"Even so..." Elaine whispered.
"Do you really have to do this, Elaine?" Leo asked, "Don't want to hang out with me? That's a lot happier than reading a book like this."
Elaine shook her head. He knew that he was indeed forcing himself. But what can he do. He did this to save the life of Leopold in front of him. All the efforts he made were known only to himself, but he couldn't tell Leo, because he didn't want Leo Potter to worry, and he didn't want to scare the child. Did the other party ever understand this painstaking effort? Feeling a little aggrieved, Elaine stopped talking, sulking in silence, and continued to read his book.
"Understood. Since this is your decision, I won't say anything more." The lion boy sighed, knowing that with their current relationship, there was no way to simply persuade the stubborn Elaine. , and gave up temporarily. After finishing everything, he began to squat beside Elaine.
"Can I... borrow your shoulder?" Leopold asked in a low voice.
"Yeah." Feeling guilty about what happened just now, the white shark did not reject the other party's request.
Leopold, who was sitting next to Elaine, boldly rested his head on the shoulder of the white shark. Elaine, who has become like this, has a cold atmosphere on her body. Not only does the shark skin not look smooth, but it actually feels rough like sandpaper.
"No, isn't it uncomfortable?" Elaine, of course, knew about it herself, so asked.
"No." The lion boy replied in a low voice, "I'll be satisfied just by leaning on you like this."
The white shark blushed, didn't say anything, and began to read his book silently. Leo also calmed down, leaning on Elaine's shoulders and closing his eyes, and after a while, he made a low snoring sound and seemed to fall asleep.
"Stupid, stupid..." Elaine couldn't help humming, trying her best to keep the shoulder she was leaning on from moving. However, he still has to turn the book, and keeping his shoulders still will affect his movement of turning the book. In desperation, Elaine first turned back into a white bear, and then carefully lifted Leopold, letting the child's head rest on his lap.
Needless to say, Elaine, the current polar bear, is a fat, furry man with hairy and fleshy thighs, and of course it is more comfortable to rest his head on it. If Elaine transforms into a white shark man again, that's not necessarily the case, the hairy thigh will probably be replaced by a leaner thigh with less fat, and the shark skin is hard and cold and rough , like a thick layer of sandpaper. That kind of thigh would not be comfortable for Leo to use as a knee pillow.
Elaine hesitated. In the end, whether to keep the appearance of the white bear man and continue to let Leo lie down comfortably, but he can't read well; Sleep on your lap? If it was him in the past, it is estimated that he would have had the answer long ago. But now he is studying to save Leo, which is far more meaningful than a moment of tenderness and consideration.
So Elaine sighed and changed back to the form of a white shark. He remained in the same seated position, with the Lion Boy's head resting on his lap—even though it was a less comfortable lap pillow.
"Hold on a little longer." He whispered in a volume that only he could hear: "I will, will save you, Leo."
After the operation is successful, the child will be free from the shackles of the shadow of death and live a carefree life. ... until that day comes, one must endure.
Elaine resisted the urge to hug Leo tightly, and began to quietly flip through the medical book in his hand. Even if his thoughts were fluctuating and he couldn't learn anything, he still tried to force himself to read what was recorded in the book. , all in one's mind.
Meanwhile, Dawn's combat training room.
Actually, the so-called combat training room was transformed from a vacant warehouse in the Dawning ship. Additional solid armor plates were installed on the ground, walls and ceiling, so that no matter how noisy the people in the training room were, they would not Inflicts particularly heavy damage to sand boats.
"Ha, ha, ha, ha..." The leopard youth Craig gasped, carefully avoiding the high-speed swinging wooden sword in Bedivere's hand, while walking in circles with the werewolf youth, trying to Find opportunities to fight back.
Unfortunately, this guy is obviously a novice, and his combat skills are very unfamiliar. He is completely relying on his speed as a leopard to respond to Bedivere's attack, but his movement range is too large. Just dodging the attack of the wooden sword is enough. Step back and jump out so far. Such inefficient dodging movements are of course very stamina, and it is also true that Quig was panting after only ten minutes.
"What are you afraid of? Take a good look at the attack range of the weapon in my hand. Is it better to dodge according to that range?" Bedivere said while swinging his sword: "This is just a wooden sword, not a long one. Spear or whip, why are you hiding so far?"
"Yes, but!"
"If you waste your energy for no reason like that, you can't even hold on for half an hour?" The werewolf youth added: "Most of the fighting time is longer than half an hour now. If you can't hold on for half an hour, how can you be competent? Those fierce battles?"
"Yes, but!"
"And you have never attacked me once, are you serious?" Bedivere continued to teach: "How can you win if you don't fight back? Are you planning to use up your stamina before you surrender to the enemy?" ?"
Quig was trained to be speechless by Bedivere.
"Ha------" Seeing that Quig was still dodging after the training, Bedivere suddenly became discouraged and stopped attacking: "Pause!"
"Finally, finally..." Craig wiped the sweat from his forehead and paused in anticipation.
"Don't get me wrong, this training won't be effective for a long time, because there is no effect, it is called a pause!" The werewolf youth said angrily.
"Ah..." Leopard snorted.
"What? Are you blaming me?" Bedivere got even more angry: "Really, why are you so scared, hiding all the time? Am I that scary?"
"It's a little..." Craig looked tremblingly at the fierce-looking Bedivere.
"I'm talking about my attack, not myself!" Bedivere scolded.
"But... being hit, it hurts." Quig hummed.
"Isn't this nonsense? Of course it will hurt to be hit. This is a battle, not a house!" Bedivere said angrily, and then he suddenly felt that being angry all the time would only make the leopard in front of him more afraid That's all, he tried his best to hold back his anger and asked with a calm look: "Are you really that afraid of pain, afraid of getting hurt, Craig? You can't even get hit with a training wooden sword?"
"Because it's... a training sword..."
"What are you?"
Quig suddenly stopped talking~IndoMTL.com~ It's scary because it's a training wooden sword, is that what you mean? "The werewolf youth tried to change his thinking: "Why? You haven't been on the battlefield very much, but you should have received a lot of training in the military before, right? They don't use wooden swords for training, do they use real knives and real guns? "
Quig still doesn't answer. His hand holding the wooden sword was shaking.
"Could you be... bullied in the army, what did they do to you in the name of [training]------"
"Stop talking!" Quig suddenly turned pale and stopped Bedivere loudly.
"It doesn't matter." Bedivere could probably guess what Craig had experienced, so he didn't continue to ask: "But you are so afraid of melee combat that you really can't handle the battle... Well, that's right------"
The werewolf youth scratched his head and took out a weapon and a bow from the storage pocket of his tactical belt.
"...bow?" Craig looked at the weapon in confusion.
