Skill extraction starting from Dragon Clan
Chapter 317 Appointment
"Hello, little brother." As soon as Zheng Shu entered the ward, he saw Mikiya Kurogiri sitting next to the hospital bed.
Just as the nurses said, sitting next to the hospital bed, he looked like an abandoned puppy.
"Is this Liang Li's ward?" Zheng Shu asked knowingly after taking a look at Liang Li's lying on the bed.
"Hello, yes, are you Shiki's friend?" Kuroyukihime also stood up from the chair cautiously.
He couldn't help but be cautious. Since this person entered the ward, the originally spacious single ward suddenly became crowded.
It was obviously still daytime outside, and he was not on that side of the window, but his presence seemed to block the sunlight, making the whole room appear dark.
"Oh, do you want to call her by her first name? It seems that you have a good relationship with this girl, little brother!" Zheng Shu looked at Mikiya Kurogiri up and down, smiled and nodded.
"No...we are just friends..." Kuroyukihime also looked a little shy.
Zheng Shu smiled and ignored Kurogiri Mikiya's excuse, but turned his attention to Liang Li, who was lying on the hospital bed.
Just like what was said in the original work, the appearance of the person lying on the bed was too exquisite, even compared with Zheng Shu's real appearance before strengthening Hercules' enhanced template.
Even though her body and face were a little thin due to long-term bed rest and coma, her appearance was still so beautiful that men and women would think she was the opposite sex when they saw her. Her facial features were not so much beautiful as they were majestic.
Because she fell into a deep sleep, her face looked much softer, but even so, just by looking at her thin eyebrows and closed eyes, you can feel the sharpness of her eyes.
In general, the appearance of the two rituals can be regarded as a beauty even in the age of gods.
However, Zheng Shu's eyes did not stay on Liang Riyan's face for too long. After all, if we really wanted to calculate it, his real appearance now is much prettier than Liang Riyan's.
What Zheng Shu cares about is the aura of the two rituals.
At first glance, it seemed that there was no big problem. She was just like an ordinary critically ill patient, with only a weak breath of life wandering in her body.
But if the identities of the two rituals are combined, then her current state seems too abnormal.
Among the four demon-exorcist families in Guanbuzi City, only the Liangyi family lived the best.
Although it has declined due to bloodline reasons, the main family is still intact, and they are very aware of their own family's knowledge and history. Compared with the other three major exorcism families, which only have one or two heirs left. It's so much better.
Therefore, the first heir of a family like Liang Lili must have awakened his bloodline and gained the ability to control magic since he was a child.
Because they rely on superpowers obtained from blood, the members of the four major exorcism families are completely different from modern orthodox magicians.
Before modern magicians deliberately used magic circuits to convert magic power, many people did not have any magic power in their bodies. Therefore, unless current magicians are well prepared, they will be quite weak in the face of a sudden attack.
Since the type of power is superpower, the magic power in the bodies of the four demon-exorcist families does not require the transformation of magic circuits to appear. A certain amount of magic power will remain in their bodies at all times.
Although converting magic power all the time will cause the body to be severely loaded, and even some body functions may decline in severe cases, it also allows them to have more strength in the face of sudden attacks.
So theoretically speaking, even if the two rituals have fallen into a coma, the blood in her body should continue to produce magic power.
But the fact is that Zheng Shu did not sense any trace of magic power from her body.
"Strange." A golden light flashed in Zheng Shu's eyes, and he walked directly to the bedside very simply.
"You are..." Hei Tongqian also noticed Zheng Shu's movements. Although he didn't know what the other party wanted to do, he stepped forward very firmly and prepared to stop him. However, how could he stop Zheng Shu with his strength.
Zheng Shu ignored Mikiya Kurogiri's pull and came to Liang Lili's bedside. Looking at her body, which seemed to be completely normal, he frowned and directly stretched out his hand to press Li Lili's face.
"Stop!" Realizing that he could not stop the man in front of him with his own strength, Kurogane could only shout helplessly, hoping to attract nurses and doctors here.
But when he shouted, a magic rune at the door of the ward emitted a faint light. It was a spell carved by Zheng Shu after he entered, specifically to isolate the ward from the outside world.
However, Zheng Shu's hand did not press it down completely. Zheng Shu stopped his movements when he was still two or three centimeters away from Liang Li's face. Looking at Liang Li's face, which seemed to be unresponsive, Zheng Shu's eyebrows raised. The wrinkles got worse.
"The root cause?" Zheng Shu was a little confused.
The reason why his hand was not fully pressed in the end was because it was "stopped", and the power that stopped him was the "source".
There was a subtle aura that was extremely active in Liang Ritual's body. This aura was hidden inside Liang Ritual's body and did not emit power outwards. Therefore, even Zheng Shu only sensed something was wrong after he brought his hand very close.
This breath gives people an extremely wonderful feeling, as if it is the truth of the world and the rules of the universe. Even people who have never met it will understand it the first time they come into contact... that is the root of this world.
To be precise, the root did not stop Zheng Shu from continuing to press his hand down, but Zheng Shu had a feeling that with the current level of activity of the root in the two ritual bodies, once a creature with magic power like him comes into contact, it is likely to be Directly backfires to death.
The origin of the two rituals is "nothingness", which is the essence of "nothing".
During this period of coma, "Shiki"'s consciousness could not see the outside world and could only constantly look at the inner nothingness. Therefore, Shiki, who was constantly exposed to the concept of death in the nothingness, acquired the direct death demon that could see things after waking up. Eye.
Based on the scene he saw now, Zheng Shu speculated that during this process, the original personalities of the two rituals were constantly in contact with the roots, which led to such a situation.
These escaping root auras do no harm to ordinary humans, because their brains cannot sense such things as "roots" at all.
But for magicians, the source that represents "nihility" is the most terrifying thing. Once in contact, their own consciousness will be wrapped up in this source and fall into endless nothingness.
Based on the primitive instinct of creatures to get closer to the source, the magic circuits in their bodies will start to operate uncontrollably, using almost endless methods to extract the magic power from the body in an attempt to break through the limitations of the world and reach the source.
And because their consciousness is still in nothingness, magicians can only wait unconsciously for their bodies to die step by step.
In a sense, the two rituals at this stage are absolute natural enemies for creatures carrying magical powers.
With Zheng Shu's current body as a servant, once he comes into contact with the two rituals, it is very likely that the magic power in his body will be completely consumed and dissipated.
"So, it's no wonder that Huangye Zonglian has been working as a doctor in this hospital for so long, but he didn't put any backup plan on Liang Lili." Zheng Shu finally understood the doubt he had always had.
You must know that Araya Soren has lived for hundreds of years, and even went to the Clock Tower for further training. It can be said that his magician skills are ridiculous.
Araya Soren's wish has always been to get to the root. After discovering the two rituals, he made a lot of preparations.
But in fact, Zheng Shu never understood that Araya Soren was also working as a doctor in this hospital during the two years when Ryōri was comatose due to a car accident. If he wanted to use Ryōri's physical properties to get into the root cause, it would obviously be during her coma. Starting in the middle is the most appropriate method.
Even if some methods cannot be used during the two rituals' coma due to the special nature of the source, it stands to reason that he only needs to prepare some back-ups for the two rituals. Then no matter what, he will not be defeated by the two in the final showdown. Ritual dry pour.
Now Zheng Shu understood that with the protection of the root, all means driven by magic power could not be used on the unconscious Liang Li.
He could even imagine the misery that Araya Soren would feel when facing the ideal he dreamed of, only to find that he couldn't touch it no matter what.
"Okay, stop calling. I'm just checking on her condition." Zheng Shu came back to his senses and glanced at Mikiya Kurogiri, who was trying to go out and call someone, but found that he couldn't open the door no matter what.
"Check the condition?" Kurogane also looked at Zheng Shu warily. This man suddenly showed violent movements after entering the room. The range of his movements did not look like he was treating someone. Kurogigan I almost thought Zheng Shu was someone from the underworld seeking revenge.
After all, the Liangyi family is also a well-known underworld family in Guanbuzi City, and it is normal for people to come looking for revenge.
Zheng Shu took another chair and sat in the room. He looked at Mikiya Kurogiri and waved his hand towards the two men lying on the bed: "Yes, although the mental silence is terrible, it is estimated that there will be another half year." You’ll almost wake up.”
"Really?" Kurogane was also a little excited, but there was also some disbelief in his tone.
After all, this person didn't seem to have done any conventional inspection. He just put his palm inexplicably above Liang Riman's face and hovered for a while.
"My methods are different from those of normal doctors." Zheng Shu looked at Mikiya Kurogiri's expression and knew what he was thinking, "Since you have such a good relationship with the two rituals, you should also know that she is not an ordinary person... In fact, the Aye-sei family is not an ordinary mafia family."
Kuroyukihime was silent for a while and then nodded. Although he had not yet fully come into contact with the world of magic, he also discovered something was wrong with her after experiencing some cases with the two rituals.
Based on Mikiya Kurogiri's intelligence gathering ability, he probably already knows the information that the Ryogi family was once one of the four demon-exorcist families in Kanfuko City.
Of course, this information is also mixed with many legends and stories, so Kurogane is not too sure how much of it is true.
"You don't need to know too much about the specific testing methods. All in all, she should be able to wake up in about half a year." Zheng Shu silently estimated the time for the two rituals in the plot to wake up.
After taking a look at Kurogiri Mikiya, who still looked a little suspicious, Zheng Shu smiled: "By the way, when she wakes up, there will be a very big hole in her heart. If possible, you'd better be with her." She should spend some time with him and help this guy fill the vacancy in his heart. There is no need to do anything special, just get along with him the same way you used to get along."
"Huh?" Kuroyukihime was really confused now.
"Anyway, you will know the specific situation by then. Now let's talk about business. I think you should have noticed that I came here today to find you." Zheng Shu restrained his smile.
Kurogane also noticed that the atmosphere in the room changed instantly with the change in the other person's expression. He swallowed nervously. He took a deep breath, but still mustered up the courage to face Zheng Shu's gaze:
"Excuse me, what are you looking for me for? We probably haven't met before."
Kuroyuki Mikiya said this with certainty, because anyone who saw him would be deeply impressed by his height and characteristics.
"Let me introduce myself first. My name is Zheng Shu. Now... I can barely be considered a magician." Zheng Shu stretched out his hand.
Kuroyukihime also hesitated for a moment, and stretched out his hand to shake Zheng Shu's hand: "Kurotungiki, you should be considered someone's assistant now."
"That's right, the reason why I came to you later this time was because of that person." Zheng Shu took over.
"You mean... Aozaki Orange?" Kuroyukihime was also a little confused. "If you have something to ask her about, you can go directly to her company. You don't need to go through me."
"It seems that you are not very clear about that person's ability." Zheng Shu smiled, "The Aoqaki Orange you are talking about is a crown magician recognized by the Clock Tower. If she doesn't want to be discovered, like A dabbler magician like me might never discover her magic workshop."
Kurogane also seemed more confused after listening to Zheng Shu's description. Although he didn't quite understand terms like "clock tower" and "crown magician", he at least understood what the other person meant.
"It's actually quite surprising that you can find Aozaki Orange's magic workshop. You know, even at the original exhibition, she didn't want to leave any of her contact information." Zheng Shu He shook his head helplessly.
Because Aozaki Orange was sealed and designated by the Magician Association, although the seal was later revoked once, she is still in hiding.
The doll that was released when participating in the exhibition was actually just Aozaki Orange's reminder to the local magic community that she was here and that they could contact her if they needed anything.
After all, as a puppet master, although he earns a lot, he also spends a lot of money. This behavior of Aozaki Orange is understandable.
The problem is that those established magic families already have Aozaki's contact information, and some emerging magician families or those far away from the Clock Tower can also obtain Aozaki's contact information through their own relationships.
But for an individual like Zheng Shu, it would be too difficult to directly contact Aang Qi Cheng Zi unless Aang Qi Cheng Zi takes the initiative to contact him.
Kurogiri was also able to find him because of his unreasonable intelligence search ability, which is almost impossible to copy.
"So I hope you can make an appointment with Aozaki Chengzi for me. I have a commission and I want to talk to her... Of course the reward is quite generous." Zheng Shu finally stated his purpose.
Kurogane also thought for a moment and nodded in agreement: "Okay, don't worry, I will talk to her."
(PS: I’m a little confused about the follow-up processing, that’s all for today.)
Thank you to the invincible readers Long Huiqiao and Ling Zhiyan for the reward. Thank you for your support.
