Dawn Sleep

The night became extremely gloomy, and Sylph sat down on the ground in horror.

Behind her, huge red gold crystals had climbed to the ceiling, sealing the door of the ward.

"……His Majesty!?"

Ryan was slowly hoisted up by his own crystal bone. He, or rather it was staring blankly at the treatment cabin where Jiang Jianming was. The small half of his face had been completely crystallized. A mixture of blood, bones, and blood vessels, and soon various human organs began to grow chaotically.

Sylph was numb and her teeth were chattering.She thought of the Gray Owl Laboratory, and thought of those memories that were almost forgotten, the handsome young man lying expressionlessly on the metal table in the laboratory...

After just a moment of distraction, Ryan's red gold crystal bones have already rushed to the treatment cabin!

They squeezed in through the gap, wrapping up the dying patient with attachment, as if trying to swallow that person into the "body".

"Your Majesty, what are you going to do, wake up!"

Sylph was surprised: "I can't..."

She bit the bullet and showed her crystal bones. The current situation of the commander-in-chief is really unbearable even if there are more bumps. What if His Majesty accidentally injures the commander-in-chief unconsciously...

But in the next second, Silfe glanced at the monitoring equipment in the treatment cabin out of the corner of her eye, and stopped suddenly!

Inertia caused Sylph to stagger a bit, and she didn't care about her embarrassed posture. She turned the detection screen over and stared at the numbers, and murmured: "What's going on, the disorder value of crystal particles...is decreasing. !?"

How can such a thing happen, even the latest medicine is useless!

Sylph took a breath and turned her gaze to the treatment cabin again.

Ryan had completely lost his human form. It wrapped Jiang Jianming, who was in a coma, with wriggling red gold crystals. The ugly life support instruments on the patient's body fell off one by one, and the patient's gown was soaked with medicine and treatment solution.

The crystal protects the disabled human like a cradle containing a newborn baby. It moves cautiously, shakes gently, and finally freezes.

The sparkling moonlight flows on the crystals, like a dream.

……

Ryan's inhuman state lasted for half a month. During this period, the crystal particle chaos index in Jiang Jianming's body miraculously dropped by ten points.

As for Lin Ge and Xierfu, they were devastated day and night by the pool of flesh and blood crystals in the ward.

Lin Ge even made N plans: about what to do if the emperor of the empire just wraps up the commander forever and does not move.

"Then you will be the emperor, Lin Ge." Sylph said quietly.

Lin Ge burst into tears: "Don't, my old lady is obviously a tool person who was pulled over by Kaios to suppress the arrogance of the old aristocrats. My old lady can be a fart emperor!"

She threw herself at the pool of flesh and blood crystals heartbroken: "Fuck, Kaios, you bastard, bastard!"

Fortunately in the misfortune, under the earnest calls of Lin Geguiwailanghao and Sylph, Kaios finally gradually regained his self-awareness.

The emperor gradually returned to his human form, the same as before except for some weakness.

The comatose commander was put back into the treatment cabin by himself.

Lai quietly looked at the man's eyebrows and eyes through the glass, then looked at the data on the monitor next to him, and said to himself, "It seems that this is the only way to go."

After turning into that strange crystal form, his control over the crystal particles has been qualitatively improved, as if some talent has been inspired.

But even so, he failed to completely cure Jiang Jianming.He feels that his limit is not here yet, maybe he can do more in the future, but this is all he can do now.

"It's already a miracle," Sylph's eyes sparkled, "So, Your Majesty, can you let me study it? Can you let me dissect it? Can you change back and try again? That's right, I'm going to give this phenomenon a scientific name..."

Ryan: "."

In the end, at the beginning of autumn, the emperor made up his mind to go on an interstellar expedition.

Not only for Jiang Jianming.More importantly, since the last time he "crystallized", he began to have an ominous premonition.

He vaguely felt that there was "something" on the other side of the universe.

Ryan didn't know what it was, or what effect it would have.But that feeling made him extremely irritable, as if there were two eyes watching his every move from afar.

During this period of time, Jiang Jianming was basically unconscious, and only a few days could be conscious.

But even when he woke up, he was still in a daze, unable to speak at all, and soon fell into a long deep sleep.

Ryan didn't dare to face Jiang Jianming, and was also afraid that this person would argue with him again about the expedition.Simply taking advantage of the commander in a coma, he relieved his military power and sent him to Wasen Star City.

He personally picked the best manor. The place is surrounded by green mountains and green waters. It is very quiet and will not be disturbed by outsiders.

He decreed to build a small villa that is warm in winter and cool in summer.

He sent the medical team that was serving the commander-in-chief there, and found the little nurse Maria who had personally nursed Jiang Jianming a long time ago.

This year's little nurse is no longer young. Maria has married a good husband, but she is still so kind and enthusiastic. After hearing about the commander-in-chief's situation, she immediately agreed to go to Watson together.

Emperor Keos personally thanked her.

In the end, he blocked the commander's contact information.

A month later, Ryan secretly asked Maria about Jiang Jianming's situation.

Maria wrote a long email earnestly, saying that the commander-in-chief's health has improved recently and he has been awake for a long time, but he is always silent and depressed, and doesn't pay much attention to her.

He also said that the commander-in-chief insisted on seeing His Majesty at first, but later he couldn't get in touch with you, so he stopped insisting, but occasionally secretly dialed the number that couldn't get through.

The emperor read the email over and over again, lost in thought for a long time.

The red leaves fall quietly outside the window of the White Jade Palace.

Sylph went to Wassen and came back and said, "Your Majesty, you can't escape like this. You have to see the commander and speak clearly."

Ryan turned his face away, and said coldly: "What are you seeing. Anyway... we will argue again."

Silver: "The commander didn't mean to blame you."

Ryan: "Hmph."

The next day, Ryan sent Seth Henry to the small villa in Watson.

Over the years, they have been fighting north and south, running around in various galaxies, and they really don't have the time to keep pets.Seth is fostered in a special institution, and he can usually watch it in the video, but it takes several years to meet each other.

Before parting, Ryan stroked the dog's back.Seth wagged his tail and stuck out his tongue, shouting happily, "Wow!"

Thinking back when they were still on Blue Mother Planet, the scene of him giving this puppy to Jiang Jianming is vivid in his memory.In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed.

Seth is an old dog now.

Ryan recalled that time, when he gave Jiang puppies, they were not familiar enough.He wants to make disabled people happy, but he doesn't know how to do it.

Now he sent Seth back to Jiang, because they were too familiar.He knew that there was nothing he could do, and he really didn't know what to do with this person.

A few days later, Maria sent an email, saying that the commander was very happy to see Seth, his spirit improved a lot, and he smiled.

In the White Emerald Palace, Ryan read the email, his emerald green eyes were soft, and he also smiled subconsciously.

But soon, the light in the emperor's eyes dimmed.

The dead leaves are not on the branches outside the window, and my thoughts are flooding at this time.If he could, he really wanted to... really wanted to meet his commander in chief.

Ryan buried his face in his hands and bent his back.

During the Spring Festival in the deep winter, the emperor secretly went to Wasen.

He didn't tell anyone, he drove the small starship alone, and found the villa in the manor along the coordinates.

It was snowing, and in the evening, the villa was lit with orange lights, creating a warm atmosphere.

Maria's crisp laughter, a few dog barks, and occasionally a low, weak male voice came from inside.

Ryan hid from a distance and peered inside, the majestic founding emperor, not to mention not daring to knock on the door, not even daring to breathe.

He listened to the corner of the wall for a while, then took out a thin object from his pocket, and stuffed it through the crack of the door.

After a while, Ryan heard excited dogs barking, paws pawing at the door.

"Seth?"

Then came Jiang Jianming's voice, "What's in your mouth? Come here."

In the warm room, Seth walked to a mahogany rocking chair with small steps, wagging his tail happily.

Maria was putting dishes on the table, she was holding a plate of roast duck, she turned around and said, "Your Excellency, what's wrong with Seth?"

On the mahogany rocking chair, sat a man with a sickly face but a calm expression.

Jiang Jianming forced himself to straighten up. He lowered his left hand and touched Seth's head.

"Stop talking," he said, "What good things did you get? Show me."

There was something paper in Seth's mouth, and Jiang Jianming took it off to see clearly that it was an envelope properly wrapped with a protective film.

He glanced suspiciously at the door that Seth had just opened, removed the protective film in his hands, took out the envelope, opened it again, and pulled out the only piece of letter paper inside.

The letter paper was folded in two, and Jiang Jianming opened it patiently.

The corners of the unfolded letter paper are decorated with a pattern of golden roses. It is the paper of the royal official document, and there are only three words on it.

--sorry.

Jiang Jianming was stunned for a while, then stood up suddenly, and hurried to open the door.

He was weak and weak, and almost tripped halfway.Maria hurriedly supported him, and the two came to the door and pushed away——

The cold wind howled into the villa.

Jiang Jianming shivered and couldn't help coughing.

He looked out the door with difficulty, but there was nothing.There is only the starry sky at the end of the horizon, the misty falling snow, and a series of shallow footprints on the snow.

Maria took off her scarf and wrapped it around the commander, and said in a daze, "This is... Has anyone been here?"

"Ahem...it's okay, no, cough...it's not a suspicious person."

Jiang Jianming took it easy.He smiled helplessly and gently, looked at the winter night starry sky again, and sighed regretfully.

"Your Majesty, you are here, so what can you do if you see me..."

After all, the commander closed the door with his own hands.He went back to the house, refolded the letter paper, and put it carefully in the drawer.

The New Year's Eve has passed, which means that winter is coming and spring is coming.

In the second year of the New Emperor Calendar, Emperor Kaios launched an unprecedented interstellar expedition, later known as the first sacred battle.

The author has something to say:

The commander-in-chief in the eyes of everyone in the empire was sent to Watson: Asuka did his best to hide his bow and put his heroes under house arrest. Your Majesty is so cruel.

Truth: Your Majesty is so cowardly that he has to write letters to apologize, and after finishing writing, he has to rely on dogs (bushi
