Elden: Ring of Calamity

Chapter 53 Surgery
"One last confirmation, have all the preparations for the operation been completed?" Tuo Lixia stood in front of the operating table in the center of the room, with a solemn expression.

Christopher quickly and orderly counted the various medical equipment in front of him again, and said in a deep voice: "All the equipment is ready."

Lucia, who was standing on the opposite side, adjusted his breathing slowly, feeling the divine power flowing in his body like a river, pressed his palm on the rune circuit depicted on the operating table, nodded slightly and said: "Divine power can be injected at any time."

Tuo Lixia took a deep breath, her delicate eyes showed a somewhat resolute expression, and her gaze was fixed on the seriously injured and sleeping boy with bad omens on the operating table, "Then let's start."

As soon as the words fell, the hesitation she had on her body immediately faded away like running water, and was replaced by the mechanical calmness and competence when she was treating the hybrid earlier. She took the nearest perfume bottle with her slender palm, and pulled it out. The moment the cork fell down, a shining silver-blue light spot flew down and landed on the chest of the boy with a bad omen.

Those spots of light quickly sank into the young man's skin, and at the same time, a petrified grayish-white luster that originally covered most of his body quickly faded away. He suddenly took a deep breath, and his chest heaved violently. The terrible knife wound also soaked a lot of blood.

"Hemostasis." Tolisha said in a calm voice.

Christopher immediately handed over an earthen jar, and Tolisha quickly cut open the blood-soaked bandage on the chest of the ominous boy with scissors, and then used a medicine spoon to scoop out a spoonful of white medicine powder from the earthen jar, and poured it on there. On the bloody wound.

"Before, I used fragrant medicine to temporarily block the progress of his injury deterioration. After the unblocking, we only have 15 minutes. Even if it exceeds 1 minute, his life will be in danger, so every next step can't go wrong, understand?" The girl is as calm as a channel of water.

Neither Lucia nor Christopher answered, but nodded decisively.At this critical moment, the three of them tacitly put aside the prejudice brought about by the disparity in their identities, and chose to abandon all distracting thoughts and focus on the operation.

For the next 10 minutes, Christopher continued to deliver pieces of medicine and tools according to Tolisha's instructions, and Lucia began to try to perceive the increasingly powerful fluctuations in the mantra in the boy's body according to the requirements mentioned in advance. .

In the final analysis, the so-called "spell power" is essentially the divine power blessed by the furnace. Whether it is the effect or the law of operation, it seems to be different from the divine power of other attributes. Every time Lucia is familiar with the nature of the other party's divine power, he will suppress it later The lower the probability of being strongly counterattacked, the higher the possibility of successful surgery.

Lucia closed his eyes slightly, and his mental power spread out like a spider web again, but this time he did not spread out the range of perception as he did in the Vania River Valley, but chose to "weave" the spider web as much as possible Precise and meticulous, with spider threads condensed by divine power interspersed with it, it went towards the young man's heart.

For more than 90.00% of the creatures in the borderland, the blood flowing in their bodies usually reflects their most original power attributes. In this case, the heart is undoubtedly their most important power core.At this moment, as soon as Lucia's spiritual power spider thread reached the heart of the ominous boy, he immediately sensed a powerful divine power like a mountain torrent!
That is a kind of sacred and savage power.

The touch of spiritual power is often more real than the normal five senses. In Lucia's perception, he seemed to be facing a magnificent ancient temple. The brilliance of nature, but the alien mixed-race murals carved on the eaves and walls, and the moss growing everywhere between the corners and stone cracks are full of mystery and wildness.

Civilization and primitiveness, life and death are perfectly integrated in an extremely harmonious organic form, just like the young man's strong but not bloated body, various shapes of furnace tumors and hard horns grow on the surface of the torso, at first glance It may feel weird, but after careful observation, it often gives people a magical feeling of "life should be like this".

The last time he felt this way was the five-song Dragon Nebula that symbolized his father Platon Sanks in the Dragon Blood inheritance.

"Is this the power from the ancient melting pot of life?" Lucia murmured in his heart.

At 50 minutes and [-] seconds, Tuo Lixia released the last scenting technique. Immediately after she swiped her finger in the air, a mysterious and complicated rune pattern emerged in midair, and the divine power seal array under the boy with bad omen suddenly followed. lights up.

"Your Highness, it's now!" she said suddenly.

Before the end of the words dissipated in the air, Lucia's outstretched palm had already burst into a lava-like blazing red golden light. The divine power in his body came from the ancient dragon belief, so in terms of power characteristics, it was completely different from the one that emphasized "life". The unique golden divine power, on the contrary, is quite similar to the power of the furnace.

The red gold divine power flows rapidly along the rune circuit drawn from time to time on the surface of the operating table, quickly forming a majestic array of runes, pressing away from top to bottom.

At the same time, the twelve fragrance-adjusting techniques that Tuolixia prepared earlier began to take effect at the same time, and the medicinal power composed of various fragrant medicines poured down, suddenly overcame the barrier of the spell power in the boy with bad omens, and began to race against time to repair his injuries .

At this moment, the mantra in the evil omen boy's body was like a boa constrictor that suddenly sensed the approach of a foreign enemy and woke up from sleep. It launched a powerful counterattack against Lucia's divine power, and the entire divine power seal circle began to flicker in an instant. stand up.

Seeing this, Lucia immediately increased the output of divine power according to the plan. He could feel that the purity of the magic power in the opponent's body was not much worse than his own, and the total amount was even greater.

Fortunately, this young man was in an unconscious state after all, and the spontaneous resistance of the spell power seemed somewhat chaotic. In addition, the two people's powers were similar in origin, and he was familiar with the nature of the spell power in the opponent's body in advance, so after the brief fierce confrontation, he still Suppressed the magic power without any risk.

Without the interference of spell power, Tolisha's fragrance technique easily achieved an excellent healing effect. Under the intense gaze of the three, the fragmented knife wound on the boy's chest began to heal from the inside at a speed visible to the naked eye. outside healing.

First, the two split sternums were butted and healed by themselves, and then the muscles, meridians, and blood vessels were connected together one by one. The blood with a bit of black gold in the wound quickly flowed back, and the torn skin was finally reconnected.In terms of visual effects, this recovery speed is almost comparable to that of Lucia who was blessed in swaddling clothes.

"Successful." Tolisha heaved a sigh of relief, her legs gave way and she collapsed to the ground. Luckily, Christopher supported her and helped her sit on a chair not far away.

"I didn't expect this guy to have such a strong physique," the perfumer girl said in disbelief, "Normally, even if these fragrant medicines take effect perfectly, it would take at least a week for his wounds to fully recover, but he recovered quickly. Too soon—he's about to wake up by this time tomorrow."

"Christopher, do me another favor," she said, taking out a pocket perfume bottle from her close-fitting pocket, "uncork the bottle, point the bottle at him and blow gently, it's for soothing The fragrant medicine for the soul, if you sleep more soundly, it should get better faster, right?"

Christopher still had sufficient physical strength, so he immediately got up to take the fragrant medicine, and followed Tolisha's instructions to operate it.

Lucia's eyes fell on the small bottle, and her expression moved slightly: "You can still tune spirits?"

"Spirit tuning?" Tolixia was taken aback for a moment, then quickly realized, and said with a smile, "Your Highness is referring to these soul-type perfumery techniques?"

Seeing Lucia nodding, she went on to introduce: "This is not a profound skill, it just requires a little bit of talent. Rodel's court perfumers basically know some of it. I heard that in some remote areas, some of them have skills in soul tuning. Perfumers who are talented but have not learned systematic perfumery will be called spiritual blenders, and they can be regarded as a small branch of our profession, right?"

"A soul tuner?"

Lucia's thoughts turned, he clearly remembered that many, many years later, when the faded person met the blacksmith Xiugu in the round table hall, Xiugu once said that the person who took good care of him in the past happened to be a spiritual master. It was also the reason why he was willing to help Roderica develop her talent for soul tuning.

From this point of view, there is a high probability that the soul tuner was Clivell five years ago, Lucia thought.
