Alien paradise

…

Outside the bedroom of an expropriated aristocratic mansion in Qianlimburg.

Chaoyang, Elodie and Xue Quan were waiting quietly in the corridor. At about 11 o'clock in the evening, the door finally opened, and several doctors in white coats came out. The leader of them took off his mask and nodded to the three people who looked over, "It's over. The operation went better than expected."

"Thank you for your hard work, Director Chen." Xue Quan thanked him repeatedly.

"You're welcome. No matter how difficult the task assigned by the organization is, we will ensure it is completed." The doctor known as Director Chen replied humbly.

These people are all professional doctors transferred from the prevention and control center. It is said that they are top experts in military hospital surgery, and judging from the results, they have indeed lived up to their reputation.

There is no electronic monitoring equipment, the delivery of anesthesia depends on experience, and the lighting can only be maintained by piles of oil lamps. Under such circumstances, performing a major operation is not only extremely difficult, but at least it is at the top level.

"How is the patient doing now?" Chaoyang asked.

Although Director Chen couldn't figure out the origin of this young man, he was obviously an important figure because he could stand with Comrade Xue Quan. "I haven't woken up from the anesthesia yet, but my heartbeat and blood pressure are normal. We will also keep an anesthesiologist." Stay here to prevent accidents. Judging from the injuries, her chest was penetrated from the back, and there was congestion in the lungs, but luckily there was no pneumothorax. I can only say that this person was really serious and her back muscles were tightly squeezed. The arrow shaft creates a relatively closed environment. I have performed tens of thousands of surgeries, and this is the first time I have seen this.”

"In short, as long as the subsequent wound is not infected, the patient will most likely be able to recover. Of course... her movements may be affected to some extent, depending on her recovery status."

Is it luck? Chaoyang doesn't think so.

That must have been Sandra's instinctive reaction after years of training. She tightened her back muscles as soon as she was hit by the arrow, so that the wound did not expand further. This is an ability that only a master-level warrior has. An ordinary person would probably have died on the road.

"Thanks. Can we go in and see her?"

"Of course, it's okay if you just take a look."

After receiving the doctor's affirmative reply, Chaoyang and Elodie walked into the bedroom together. The room was obviously a bit stuffy. There were nearly fifty oil lamps placed there. Although the windows had been opened for ventilation, the heat would not escape for a while. Sandra was lying on the hard bed in the middle of the room, her eyes closed and her face slightly pale.

"Don't worry, her life is still very strong and she won't die for a while." Elodie said after observing for a while, "Don't forget that she was severely injured by the kelp monster when she was in Glory Castle, and she can move freely in a week. "

"Well, luckily you're here." Chaoyang replied subconsciously.

The purpose of calling Angel is not only to monitor physical signs. If the anesthesia fails and the patient wakes up midway, Elodie can also use singing to "mentally hypnotize" the patient and force him to calm down to avoid more serious consequences.

Fortunately, the doctors were very experienced and this did not happen.

He didn't notice that these words made Elodie cover her mouth unconsciously.

"Ahem... Speaking of which, was Miss Sandela chased here by the rebels?" Angel changed the subject, "I remember she went to the capital with that lieutenant colonel, right?"

"It's common sense, but I've asked witnesses and they all confirmed that Sandra came from the north."

"North?" Elodie thought for a while. There were large areas of uncultivated dense forest there, and there were only two dirt roads leading to the towns outside the forest area. It really didn't look like they were bypassing the royal capital.

"The route from Qianlimbao to Sancia can be taken by train or by caravan. But the soles of her shoes were all muddy, and she had obviously run all the way. Maybe there was an accident in the middle, which caused her to have to leave. Don’t escape from the north.”

"Hey, have you even looked at her shoes carefully?" Elodie said disgustedly.

"Actually, thinking about it, it's really not necessary. I can get the truth in a simpler and more intuitive way. Even if she is asleep."

"Are you referring to the dreaming technique?" the other party thought quickly.

"That's right." Chaoyang stretched out his hand and put it on the top of Shantela's head - he had a vague hunch in his heart that the other party must have encountered some imminent event, so he rushed to Qianlin Castle even though he was injured. If she just exposed her identity and was wanted by Duke Longjiu, with her temperament, even if she died outside, she probably wouldn't want to bring trouble to Le Paradise. "Do you want to come with me?"

"Okay, I'll reluctantly accompany you to see it," Angel shrugged, and put his hand on the back of Chaoyang's hand, "to save you from wandering around in other people's memories and seeing things you shouldn't see."

What do you mean by something that shouldn't be seen? Chaoyang rolled her eyes. She didn't think that the dream spell could also peek into bathing and sleeping. The brain would not remember such insignificant things.

"Wow..."

The two heard the sound of waves crashing against the rocks.

"Oh, isn't she from the mainland?" Elodie raised her eyebrows, "She seems to like the sea."

Sandra's memory labyrinth is a lighthouse standing in the sea, with rugged rock walls below. The waves are beating back and forth on these rocks, as if they will never calm down. This scene reminded Chaoyang of the Observation Tower of Brilliant Castle, which was also Sandra's office. However, the observation tower is backed by the defense army camp and is closely connected to the land, while this lighthouse is independent of the vast sea and appears extremely lonely.

"She may not realize that the time she spent in Glory Castle was the main part of her life experience." Chaoyang said in a low voice. He flew down to the top of the tower with the angel, and then went all the way down the inner stairs. This journey did not encounter many obstacles. On the contrary, the lighthouse seemed to be guiding them forward... The tower was very clean and tidy, and there was a burning torch on every lower floor, illuminating their path forward.

I don’t know if this is because Sandra’s mental defense is low, or because she doesn’t mind outsiders coming as guests.

Arriving at the bottom of the tower, the memory fragments here are quite clear, indicating that they were formed recently.

The two saw the sky full of wind and snow and the continuous cities hidden in the mountains.

"Is there such a place in the Old World?" Elodie asked in surprise.

In her impression, human beings are naturally resistant to severe cold. The higher the altitude, the less developed they are. It would be nice to have villages, but what is displayed in front of you is a city that is no less than Brilliant Castle...

No, it should be far superior in terms of scale alone.

Next comes a grand banquet. Various characters appeared in turn. Unfortunately, limited by their memory, it was difficult for them to tell who these people were. They could only be sure of one thing. Sandra was not a prisoner who was escorted here, but a guest who was treated with courtesy.

Then, a relatively familiar woman flashed past. Chaoyang soon remembered that he had had a chance encounter with the other party.

Is that the old friend she is looking for, Elize Ben?

At this time, Ryan also appeared in Sandra's memory - even if the picture was still blurry, Chaoyang could still recognize the lieutenant colonel of the Royal Army.

"It seems they are still together." Elodie said, "Then why was Miss Sandra the only one who went to Qianlimbao in the end?"

Chaoyang shook his head and continued to move towards the next memory.

The scene recedes quickly, and the owner of the memory walks through the streets and alleys - she looks back from time to time, and the snow-covered city walls are getting farther and farther away from her. But someone was chasing her behind, and the black figure was faintly outlined by the moonlight.

"What the hell, you just escaped? There was no process in between..." Elodie frowned.

Chaoyang couldn't help but wonder. In the previous memory, he was still a guest, so why did he start running for his life in the next memory? There must have been a major turning point in the middle. Why are there no vivid memories left in the memory maze?

Could it be that I missed something?

Sandela ran all the way until the snow-capped mountains were completely left behind, and the surrounding scenery became lush and green again.

At this moment, the memory suddenly changed, and its content returned to the city! And this time, not only was the picture much clearer, but the two people could even hear the conversation!

"As long as we use the right method...gods will also die!"

"Remember, my name is Coco Moqi, the goddess of magic who was born in the realm of nothingness."

"Thousand Limburg has fallen! We must fight back!"

"This is the only chance to stop the war."

"...be careful on the road."

The memory fragments that he had seen before reappeared again. This abnormal phenomenon surprised Chaoyang! Theoretically, memory segments are arranged in chronological order, and the earlier ones are more recent. After all, it is impossible for people to go back in time, so it is impossible to repeat what they have experienced twice!

Elodie suddenly showed a soft expression, "I understand. In the last period of time, she kept recalling the previous contents and turning them into new memories, which is why this happened. I guess this is quite It’s not easy, she needs to replay it repeatedly in her mind before her brain can accept these deliberately shaped memories.”

"Why did she do this?" Chaoyang was puzzled.

"Because Miss Sandela has seen you use the dream spell." The angel said, "In this way, even if she dies of serious injuries, she can still bring the news."
