Knights of the Wasteland Fortress

Chapter 110 The most important thing

"Magic replacement organ?"

Jiatu cast some puzzled eyes on Wu Yao.

Because in his opinion, both Wu Yao and Sun Simiao are healthy and normal people, completely different from him——

As a result, Wu Yao nodded slightly, pointed to his eyes and said:
"I am blind."

Jiatu was stunned, and recalled for half a second before confirming that he had heard correctly.

And Lei Yu dug out two resumes from the drawer, imported them to the monitor in front of Jiatu, and explained for Wu Yao:

"Both Sun Simiao and Wu Yao were treated here, Wu Yao is blind, Sun Simiao has congenital heart disease—you don't think that after so many years, you are the only disabled person in the shelter who has passed the third round of tests, right? "

Lei Yu looked at Jiatu with some amusement.

Jiatu was stunned for half a second, his eyes kept scanning between Wu Yao and Lei Yu, and he stammered nervously for a moment:
"But I never felt that there was anything wrong with Captain Wu Yao and Captain Sun Simiao..."

"Of course it's because it's cured."

With a lollipop in his mouth, Lei Yu shook his feet and said:

"Everyone of your explorers in the third team will have a chance to use the "Seed of Desire". If you choose mechanical transplantation or manual correction, you can use the "Seed of Desire" in other places; If you choose the Molong plan, then you can let the "Seed of Desire" replace your original body."

As Lei Yu spoke, he beckoned, and Wu Yao lowered his head to let Jiatu look into his eyes.

At first glance, it looks like a pair of ordinary brown pupils, but an iridescent light can be seen deep in the pupils.

"These eyes are organs made of pure Mako matter—Mako."

Wu Yao straightened up and said calmly: "It is different from ordinary magic props. Not only can it not absorb energy, but it can also actively release energy. Sun Simiao's title of 'Fengshen' and my 'Magic Eye' are both That's how it came."

"But there's also a high chance of failure."

Thunderstorm rushed to the desk and pressed the table with "slaps".

Soon, a series of lists appeared in front of Jiatu:
""Seed of Desire" requires a strong desire to germinate. Among the trainees over the years, only one-third of them can catalyze success, and [-]% of "Seed of Desire" is in line with the realization form I expected Not the same."

Lei Yu pointed to Wu Yao and said, "This kid and Sun Simiao are lucky, so he wants to repeat his miracle on you."

"But what happens if you fail? Is there any risk?"

Jiatu asked hesitantly.

"Have."

Lei Yu nodded without hesitation: "Molong's replacement surgery requires transplanting the "Seed of Desire" you got near the corresponding organ. If it fails, it will cause serious internal bleeding—if it is a heart transplant like Sun Simiao's, It will even lead to immediate death.”

"So, how strong is your desire to restore your left leg?"

Wu Yao squatted down, looked at Jiatu, and asked slowly:
"What is your real wish?"

Jiatu hesitated.

It was the first time he realized the problem.

For a long time, his desire to restore his left foot coincided with his desire to become a explorer.

Because only when he becomes a explorer, he is considered a valuable "person" to the people in the refuge, and he can obtain the medical resources of the refuge, and it is possible to meet high-level researchers like Leiyu.

But is the desire to recover his left leg really that strong for him?

So strong that he didn't hesitate to risk his life to climb the "Life Stele" of the third round of testing?
I'm afraid it's not that simple, is it?

Jiatu just thought for a while before realizing the problem.

He is very clear that he is a person who cherishes life very much.

Put a left foot and his whole life on both ends of the scale, and he would choose his whole life without hesitation.

After all, that's life. What's wrong with betting your entire life on it?

It's better to live than to die. Isn't it good to listen to the old saying?

But why did he choose to become a explorer again?
Is it really just for one foot?
Jiatu lost his mind for a moment.

He couldn't lie to himself, so he knew that restoring his left foot was just one of the reasons he chose to become a Ranger.

And it's not the most important one.

What is the real reason?
He finds it difficult for him to explain.

It's just that whenever he sits alone in front of the silent and empty collapsed area, whenever he wants to go for a walk in a further place, whenever he wants to deal with other people nicely, but because of this left foot When he hits a wall, he knows that he can only go up, climb up, until this foot can no longer drag him down, until he can laugh and tell others about his own foot. Only then can those holes buried in the bottom of my heart be healed.

So looking at Wu Yao's expectant eyes, Jiatu knew that he couldn't satisfy him, so he could only bow his head and say:

"I'm sorry... I probably didn't regard restoring my left foot as the most important thing in my life."

In the treatment room, a needle could be heard for a while.

When Jiatu lowered his head, Wu Yao and Lei Yu looked at each other and nodded silently.

Then the giant took a deep breath and sighed:

"Then there is no way, do you want to choose mechanical transplantation or manual correction?"

"Correct it manually."

Jiatu replied without hesitation: "It's just a little pain, I can still bear it."

Hearing what he said, Wu Yao couldn't help but nodded:

"Death, pain and setbacks are the three friends we can never avoid on the road of life."

"If you want to choose the more difficult path, it's impossible not to face them."

Lei Yu didn't know what to think of, and couldn't help sighing.

"Someone has to go the hardest way."

Jiatu nodded, thinking of his previous experience, he also fully understood.

"...Success brings glory, failure becomes a stepping stone, no matter what, it's all luck."

Wu Yao stared at Jiatu, his deep eyes reminded Jiatu of the first climber who fell from a high cliff.

If there is no path opened by the first climber, neither Jiatu nor Hena will be able to successfully reach the summit through Noah's more dangerous route and become a explorer.

So he nodded vigorously:
"Success or failure."

.

After leaving the treatment room on the life layer, Jiatu looked at the closed automatic door behind him and took a deep breath.

Wu Yao seemed to have something to say to Lei Yu, so he didn't send him away.

"I failed to meet his expectations, so it's normal to do so..."

Jiato thought silently, feeling a little ashamed about the last conversation.

He didn't know what kind of radio wave he was facing, and he was able to say such inexplicable words to those two people.

But for some reason, after he walked out of the treatment room on the life layer, he felt an unconscious sense of relief in his daze.

According to the agreement with Lei Yu, in the next year, every time I return to the refuge, I have to go to her for two deformity corrections.

Although the process will be painful and lengthy, compared with direct mechanical prosthetic modification or rough prosthetic surgery, there will be much less side effects.

"Besides, the former rehabilitation patients also came here... gradually regaining their physical mobility...Compared with them, I have nothing to complain about..."

Jiatu stood on the escalator in the upper area, watching the upper area residents coming and going, and suddenly felt that the current refuge was not as hideous as he had imagined before.
