The sun is high

With deep confusion, Shuge temporarily left the carriage where old Schubert was placed.

After receiving two rounds of purification treatment with alchemical incense, he stood silently in an open space not far from the injured camp. Duden stood quietly beside him. The young soldier was a little curious about the nature of Xiuge. What are you thinking about? But as a writer, you just want some inspiration and creativity, right?

"Perhaps what he just saw along the way gave him new ideas? It's really exciting!"

Of course, Xiuge didn't know what his meditation meant in the eyes of others. He was now trying hard to communicate with the three bastards in his spiritual world.

He knew that what the messenger in the mirror and the running rat Snitch meant was definitely not to let him actually "eat" the black colloid with his mouth, but to hope that he could use the power in the colloid " absorb".

And this is something Xiuge doesn't dare to do now.

"The sacrificial inscriptions I heard before and the characteristics displayed by this monster indicate that it is very likely to be some kind of 'ancient creation' left over from an age unknown to people. Only in this way can we explain why the messenger in the mirror and the All the running rats will covet its power..."

Xiuge raised his foot and gently stepped some snow next to him into the soil. He crushed it twice, creating a dirty-looking footprint.

"The strange thing is that according to what they meant, I had 'absorbed' part of the monster's power before, but I don't really feel it now."

"My magic power has not increased significantly, nor has I absorbed any new magic... Could it be that all it has given me are those messy memories?"

The more Xiuge thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. As he thought about it, a memory that he had almost ignored before popped up.

He suddenly remembered that before he completely fell into coma, Theseus seemed to have demonstrated some ability of the Mirror Messenger. In the mist created by the Mirror Messenger, the black mucus that came into contact with his body was wrapped and absorbed. …

"So, I got kicked back again?"

Along with this thought, Theseus's face made of black mist flashed through Shuge's mind, but Shuge didn't have any angry thoughts... A bad person like Theseus Yes, if you really pointed at his nose and cursed, maybe he would be even more excited.

What's more, judging from his previous performances, this guy is probably also good at swearing.

But no matter what the situation was, Shuge knew that he could never rashly deal with old Schubert's physical problems now. He had to find a way to figure out the principle, otherwise he would very likely put himself in a dangerous situation again.

While he was thinking, a call suddenly came from not far away. He raised his head and saw a figure running in his direction. Before he could react, the soft body with the strong scent of incense appeared. Then he jumped straight onto him.

Shuge's mind fell into a brief blank.

He really didn't have much experience of being actively hugged by girls.

However, his sanity quickly came back to him, so he raised his palm, and amid the extremely envious eyes of the surrounding soldiers, he gently patted the back of the girl in his arms twice: "Okay, Sha." Miss Li, many people are watching."

"ah……"

The former female bartender and now the apprentice physician with the army finally reacted. She quickly let go of Xiuge, then took a step back and stood still in front of Xiuge.

Days of fatigue, running around and worrying have made Sally lose a lot of weight, but there is also a different kind of tenacity between her brows and eyes, and the white doctor's apprentice robe she is wearing now gives her even more weight. It has two points of attraction that are hard to look away from.

At least this is the case for the young soldiers in the 5th Chasseur Regiment.

"Xuge, I heard they said you were awake... I didn't expect you to come directly here!"

Xiuge smiled: "I came here to see you. You are still alive. This is the best news for me."

Hearing this sentence, the girl's eye circles immediately turned red. Knowing that she was worried about Schubert, Shuge quickly said: "I already know about Schubert's situation, don't worry too much... I may have a way to solve it." The trouble he’s in may not necessarily save his leg, but it should keep him alive.”

Sally stretched out her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes, pursed her lips, and then said in a lowered voice: "That's what I said too. I have asked the military doctors and the mages who are accompanying the army... if they can directly saw off my uncle's left leg. , but they were unwilling, they said I didn’t understand the importance of this case..."

Shuge sighed.

For Walter's doctors and mages, this is indeed a very common choice. Compared with the life of an ordinary old man, they will indeed care more about an extremely rare curse or disease case. I am afraid that if it were not Wei Lin's Guaranteed and his own subtle identity, those guys had already started experimenting on old Schubert.

Of course, you can't say this to Sally here.

Xiuge comforted him softly: "Don't think too much. I need to go back and make preparations now. At the same time, I have to talk to Miss Weilin... Maybe she can give me some other suggestions. Don't worry, just do your own thing." ,Okay?"

Hearing Shuge's comfort, the girl nodded heavily. Her tense face softened again, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, finally showing a slight smile.

At this time, a middle-aged alchemy doctor with a strong academic temperament came over. He coughed hard, attracting the attention of the two people.

Sally let out a low cry. She quickly took a step back, then lowered her head, with an expression waiting for reprimand.

However, the middle-aged doctor wearing thick glasses did not blame Sally. He turned to Shuge and nodded friendly: "Mr. Ernst, right?"

Xiuge nodded, then stretched out his hand to shake it gently: "I heard that Sally has become the apprentice of the alchemist doctor, so you must be Sally's teacher?"

"Elan Harper."

The middle-aged doctor introduced himself: "I'm just a doctor who has accomplished nothing. Fortunately, the army gave me a job...Sally is very talented in this area, but it's a pity that she started studying too late. Otherwise, I might have a chance." Cultivate an excellent pharmacist master."

"I trust your judgment, she can do anything well."

Shuge did not hesitate to praise his friend at this moment. He was focused on talking to Dr. Yilan in front of him, and naturally ignored the blush on Sally's face.

"I agree."

Dr. Yilan's character is much livelier than that of ordinary Walters, so his attitude is also more friendly: "But these days, Sally is always a little depressed because of her uncle's affairs. However, as her mentor, I Nothing can be done."

The middle-aged man sighed slightly. Seeing that no one else was paying attention to him at this time, he whispered softly in his voice: "Don't believe those mages, they only want to make people into specimens."

Xiuge nodded slightly, accepting the other party's kind reminder.

After all, Sally and her mentor still had some work to complete, so Shuge did not drag the two of them to continue talking. However, before bidding farewell to the two of them, in order to make the poor girl feel a little more at ease, Shuge deliberately I made a request to Dr. Elan, hoping that he could give Sally a short break after dinner so that the two of them could have time to talk.

Dr. Yilan agreed readily.

After that, Shuge followed soldier Duden back to the vehicle that served as his temporary residence.

He noticed that after meeting Sally, he seemed to have aroused the hostility of many young soldiers. Although Walter's army has always been known for its strict regulations, these regulations did not prohibit soldiers from having sex with the opposite sex. Emotional relationship, so a dynamic physician apprentice like Sally will naturally attract the attention of young people.

Shuge knew very well that his current relationship with Sally was more of a friend.

He himself was not sure whether this friendship would completely change at a certain point - because he had too many troubles that needed to be dealt with first, and before these things were resolved, Xiuge felt that he had no time to care.

However, he didn't bother to clarify those misunderstandings with others... After all, the relationship between people already existed, and there was really no need to explain things like this.

After confirming that the two mages Wei Lin and Krautz would not be able to finish their work for a while, Xiuge immediately decided to enter the Dream Sanctuary. His mind was now filled with a lot of doubts and incomprehensions, and he could answer Theseus was the only one who had these questions.

So he took off his shoes and lay down on the bed with the scent of the fragrance remaining on his body.

Xiuge closed his eyes, and the magic power in his body began to rhythm slowly, which quickly made him fall into a trance of half-asleep and half-awake.

…

He woke up slowly, as if he had woken up from an overtime nap.

After entering the dream shelter more times, Xiuge gradually became accustomed to the unique darkness and oppression of this strange world.

To a certain extent, this is probably his second "home".

It's just that there are too many unstable and dangerous factors in this "home".

And this time, this strange dream world brought a new "surprise" to Xiuge.

Not far away, Xiuge saw a computer display screen in working condition, and in the glowing display screen, there was a document.

"What kind of trick is this?"

Shuge walked forward curiously, and his occupational disease broke out unconsciously - usually, he always had to take a second look at this kind of document.

However, when he saw the text clearly, he couldn't help but frown, because he discovered that this thing was actually related to himself...or, in other words, it was written about himself today!

"Baron Ernst."

"Full name is Sugar Ernst."

"The illegitimate son of Yerevan Ernst, a member of the Ernst family."

"His experience before the age of twenty was mediocre... Baron Ernst's experience was very similar to that of almost all of Walter's unappreciated illegitimate children - apprentices, handymen... and then because of the issue of heirs within the Ernst family, And was sent to the delicate border city of Salem, where he ushered in a turning point in his fate."

"No one knows how this ordinary young man escaped from the horrific incident in Salem City."

"Some people say that this illegitimate child received protection from the Ernst family at the most critical moment. With the help of those family powers that he had never enjoyed, he finally managed to escape from the disaster."

"Some people also say that the real Baron Ernst actually died in that turmoil. It was not him who left Salem City, but some kind of weird thing that carried his skin and swallowed up his soul and memory. exist."

"Some people think that perhaps combining the two conjectures is the correct answer."

"But in any case, Sugar Ernst must have experienced some kind of changes in his body and will during this tragic disaster."

"Perhaps it is precisely because of this that this obscure illegitimate son of a nobleman later chose to devote himself to the research of forbidden necromancy, and finally allowed Van En to usher in the man who successfully spent two hundred years and created 'Baron Ernst' of countless horror legends."

When Xiuge finished reading the document, his brows were already knitted into knots.

He was certain that this was definitely not something he and his colleagues had written in the past.

"This is not in line with the team's working habits... The plot planners have never made it clear what the disaster happened in Salem City. This is to leave a flexible gap for adjustment in the subsequent game content design."

Xiuge said to himself: "However, this document actually writes out all these things that only I have experienced. Although the tone is ambiguous, its direction... is it too clear?"

His eyes were fixed on the middle of the document. The sentence that speculated that "Suge Ernst" had his soul and memory swallowed by "some kind of existence" made him very uncomfortable. This sentence seemed to point to his escape. The kind of black slimy monster we encountered in Salem City, but at the same time it seemed...

You can also point to yourself.

After all, fundamentally speaking, he is indeed an "imposter".

"The content in the second half of this document is equally ambiguous. It seems to be stating facts, but combined with the highly suggestive words in the front, it seems like a prophecy full of uncertainty... So, what is here Will the second half of said 'Baron Ernst's' life really happen?"
