Light Spirit Epic Chapter 2683: Trial of Flame (4)
Chapter 2683 Trials in the flames (four)
"Leo!" Elaine rushed up to wrap the golden lion in a towel and carefully hugged Leo Potter: "Are you okay?"
"Elaine?" Leo, who had just woken up, was still a little confused: "Why are you here..."
He only remembers the game this morning, remembering that he was hit hard by the "Iron Mask Nine" at the end of the game, and then collapsed into a coma.
Yes. He was sent back to the hotel because he was severely injured and fell into a coma. Only then did Leo realize that the room he was in was the "medical room" that he had been staying in.
"Sister Xue Rui actually let you in." The lion boy said angrily: "She's so nasty... She shouldn't let you see what's here."
"Okay, okay, don't talk, lie down." Elaine moved to the side of the hospital bed with Leo in his arms, and slowly put the Lion-Man boy on the bed, as if placing a fragile glass product.
"Hmm------" Leopold elongated his face and his tone.
"Wh, what?" Elaine frowned at being stared at.
"But fortunately, you actually came." Leo grinned, his face was pale and ill, but his smile was sweet.
The white bear felt like his heart stopped beating for half a beat, and he looked away in embarrassment.
"Hey, you should have your own room in the hotel, right?" The lion boy said again: "I don't want to stay in such an unpleasant place, take me to your room, okay?"
"That's it, I'll take you out of the infirmary like this, okay?" Elaine hesitated.
"It's fine. Everything that should be cured is cured. What can't be cured can't be cured even if it stays here." Leo was forced to smile: "It's useless to stay here. Let's go?"
"But Snow, Miss Sherlock..."
"As long as I don't leave the hotel's confines, I'll be fine. In an emergency, the hotel staff will naturally come to rescue me."
"Since you say so..." Elaine carefully picked up the Lion-Man boy again. In fact, at this time, Leo was only wearing a pair of pants, and the outside was only wrapped in the large bath towel that Elaine brought. When picked up in a towel like this, he looked like a big baby.
"Well, I'd better go by myself, let me down." Leo said with a blushing face.
"No. You have to protect yourself and keep your stamina." Elaine stiffened, holding the golden lion towards the direction of the ladder. At this time, Sherry Chad, who was outside the medical room, had disappeared.
"No, no key card?" Elaine remembered that the staff elevator needed a key card to open the door.
"You don't need a key card to go out from the management area." Leo said: "After all, it is an elevator set up for our convenience, so swiping the card back and forth is boring."
"Okay, okay." Elaine walked into the elevator suspiciously, and opened the door without swiping her card. The staff-only elevator is still connected to the various floors of the hotel, although it is not clear where it will come out, but at least it can reach the desired floor. The bear man walked into the elevator with the golden lion in his arms.
"Aren't you busy reading?" In the elevator, the golden lion suddenly asked.
"I'm going to do something very important next. I think before I leave, I want to meet you."
"Isn't it going to do something dangerous?" Leopold pointed out with a sharp sense.
"Hmm." Elaine mumbled.
"That's why you came to say goodbye to me?" asked the lion boy.
"I'm sorry."
"Forget it. I'm not much better than you." Leo added: "I almost died in today's game. It's so dangerous."
"But you still, will you continue?"
"Well. There's a game tomorrow. It has to be played before I can fulfill my promise." The Golden Lion buried his head in Elaine's chest and whispered, "Tomorrow...as long as it's over. Tomorrow, I will be [free]."
[Free]? Elaine didn't speak, just hugged Leopold tightly. If this continues, whether Leo can survive tomorrow's game is unknown. Moreover, Leo may only have three months left to live, and if he works again in the game tomorrow, it is estimated that his lifespan will be reduced. The situation was so urgent, why did he keep a "promise" and use his own life to pay off the debt of mercy?
Incomprehensible. Elaine wanted to persuade the other party, but he knew that he had lost the qualification. When Leo left the Dawn this morning, he should have persuaded Leo to stop him. However, at that time Elaine ignored Leo and let him go.
The indifferent Elaine was no longer qualified to persuade Leo to do what he wanted to do.
There is only one thing Elaine can do.
After returning to her hotel room (which, of course, Elaine and Bedivere share a suite), Elaine finds that the layout of the room has remained largely unchanged.
The hotel room would have been cleaned regularly by a waiter. But after all, this is the long-term rental suite of the Knights of Great Britain for the candidates of the round table trial, and Elaine's private property in the room was rummaged by an unknown person last time. Bedivere has already lodged a complaint with the hotel. The hotel has enhanced security. The hotel staff didn't seem to have set foot in the room since, not even the clothes Elaine had hastily put next to the bed last time.
"It smells like Elaine. Hehe." Leo stuck his tongue out and laughed: "Is this your bed? Put me down."
The bear blush complied. Always feel a little embarrassed. On the contrary, the Golden Lion was not polite at all, found a comfortable position on the bed, and said to Elaine with half-squinted eyes, "I can't sleep. Would you like to chat with me?"
"No, don't you take a shower first?"
"Even after taking a long bath in the survival capsule, do you still wash?" Leo pouted like a child: "If you wash it again, you will become bald."
Elaine sat obediently on the edge of the bed.
"Tomorrow's game... Really, do you want to participate?" He whispered: "Can't you not go?"
"Sorry. It's been decided." Leopold's eyes showed a little sadness: "I promised to do it, and I can't give up halfway."
"Even if...will I die?" There was an inescapable fear in the white bear man's tone.
"I will come back." But the golden lion said: "After fulfilling my promise and repaying the debt, I will be free. At that time, my body will belong to you, and you can do whatever you want to me. Even if...even if you cut my head off, I won't complain. Until then, just be patient, okay?"
Elaine shuddered. His plan wanted to be seen through by Leo.
"How did you know?"
"You've been reading various brain surgery books. Even if I don't understand the content of the book, I can still understand it by looking at the cover."
Elaine thought she could keep it under wraps, but in fact she'd already been exposed.
"What the **** are you trying to do, Elaine." Leo looked at the white bear man with a bitter look: "The day after tomorrow is the final of the round table trial arena. You have more important things to do than reading books. Are you ready? You're taking the round table trial to fulfill your dreams. Is it really okay to be distracted for a guy like me at such a critical juncture?"
The originally silent white bear man replied at this time: "Leo, the situation here is more urgent. Because, for Leo, it's worth it. Dad, we can wait there."
Oops. Say what shouldn't be said. Elaine shuddered.
The Lion boy was silent for a while. There was a suffocating silence in the air.
"You're an idiot too." Leo sighed after a few minutes. Elaine's choice was not directly negotiable, and instead complained about something else: "You always act for others. Even participating in the round table trial is not for yourself. To help others, you fought with your life and spit blood. , dragging her broken body from the ground again and again -- is it really worth it?"
"It's worth it." It was a rare time when the Ice Bear replied clearly: "Because I want... a place to live."
So Leopold looked at Elaine bitterly, not knowing whether to be sad or happy: "Am I your place too? But you don't remember me, do you? Long ago, when we were children, You forget all those memories."
Elaine couldn't deny it.
"I'm just a stranger to you." Leo sighed: "But Elaine is very gentle. Too gentle. When you see a stranger dying, you will try your best to help. With you Do you remember that I have no necessary relationship, you are essentially such a person."
"I just..."
"But promise me, don't force yourself anymore." The lion boy shook his head and said, "Doing things you don't want to do for others, reading books you don't understand. Anxiety but nowhere to run. , bear the despair that should not be endured. Seeing you like this makes me sad too."
Elaine's little thoughts were actually seen through long ago. Despite this, the other party was still accommodating him. Elaine's eyes gradually blurred. Without warning, he threw himself into Leopold's arms and buried his face in the fluffy fur.
"Hey, are you acting like a spoiled child?" Leo said with tears in his eyes.
"Sorry. One, it's fine..."
"How come you still look like a child."
Elaine didn't answer, just buried her head deeper. Leo had a faint sweetness similar to that of an orange. Could it be the smell left over from the nutrient solution in that survival capsule? The polar bear was overwhelmed by the smell, and his hands began to move down restlessly.
"Are you sure?" the golden lion whispered, "Once you do that, you can't go back."
"Yeah." The white bear replied, "I will save you. If you do tonight and the operation is successful, there will be a way to transplant your head into another body. Then you can, survived."
Although the odds of a successful operation are less than one in a million~IndoMTL.com~ Elaine has never been able to tell the truth about her fear.
"Then this broken body is useless. Before discarding it, use enough. Is that what you mean?" Leo groaned. For Elaine, is Leo's broken body just a tool?
The white bear shook his head.
"Because this is Leo Yuan, the original body. I will cherish and miss it. Before saying goodbye to it, let me feel its warmth more." He hugged the golden lion tightly, and the other party said There was no resistance, so he had to squeeze even tighter.
I don't know if it was Merlin's strange spell that made Elaine abnormal, or because he was abnormal; he just followed his instincts and did what he wanted. Right and wrong in the world, he did not understand, and did not want to understand. Now because of the influence of that spell, he is more willful. Desperate, just want to satisfy their own desires. Hope.
Leo hesitated for a long time before agreeing: "...Okay."
The polar bear turns off the lamp beside the bed. Night fell, and the room was shrouded in darkness. The two shadows merged into one, and let out a deep, long breath.
