Chapter 2031 - 1596: The World After Death_5

"My whole body feels uncomfortable."

Su Mo replied with difficulty.

"Feeling uncomfortable is right; you were overloading the VI generation Biological Mecha and using the Negative Energy Pollution power intensively. Your body was almost entirely corroded by Negative Energy Pollution. It’s truly a miracle that we could save you."

Dr. Yageri said to Su Mo.

Su Mo suddenly remembered something and quickly asked.

"Did we win?"

"Of course we won."

Dr. Yageri paused for a moment before replying.

"How did we win?"

Su Mo, gradually recovering his clear mind, asked with some confusion.

"Lord Icaroya intervened to settle the opponent. Lord Su Mo, your body is very weak now, so don’t worry about these things. The most important thing for you is to rest. Although you are awake, you are not out of danger. No matter what happens, wait until your body has recovered."

Dr. Yageri said to Su Mo.

"I understand."

Su Mo replied with difficulty.

"Then rest well; I need to be outside for now. Don’t worry, if anything happens, the nurse watching over you will call me."

"Okay!"

"Hmm."

Dr. Yageri then turned and left.

Su Mo slowly closed his eyes and tried calling out in his mind.

"Xiao Shi, Xiao Shi....."

But unexpectedly, there was no response at all.

Su Mo’s heart sank to the bottom; lack of response could only mean one thing, Xiao Shi is still on the Resentful Sin Phantom Bone Mecha of the creator.

After the battle ended, it must have had issues as well, and couldn’t detach from the mecha and return to his body immediately.

He couldn’t help but feel worried, wanting urgently to check on it, but he was completely immobile now.

The third gear side effects surpassed his imagination; at this moment, he felt severe pain in every part of his body, and even breathing was extremely difficult.

Su Mo ultimately chose to quietly recuperate.

....

A few days later, under Dr. Yageri’s treatment, Su Mo gradually regained mobility and could get out of bed and walk a little on his own.

Feeling very irritable, Su Mo thought of going outside for some fresh air.

Just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by the senior nurses in charge, who respectfully said.

"Lord Su Mo, where are you going? Your body hasn’t fully recovered."

"I’m going out for some fresh air."

"This, this isn’t appropriate; if something happens, we can’t bear the responsibility."

"Nothing will happen; I’m very aware of the condition of my body. How about this, you can accompany me."

Su Mo didn’t want to make things too difficult for them.

"Alright."

The three senior nurses immediately nodded in agreement.

So they helped Su Mo out of the ward, arriving at a quiet corridor.

The area he was in was a special VIP ward section; there were few wards, but the defense was exceptionally strict.

Each room was guarded personally by fully armed NCOs.

Su Mo turned to glance at the neighboring ward and saw the sign light was red, indicating not to disturb.

"Who is staying next door?"

Su Mo subconsciously asked.

Before the nurses holding him could speak, a voice accompanied by crisp footsteps was heard.

"Next door is Crock."

Su Mo mildly startled, lifted his head, and saw Xia Weiya enter.

"Lord Xia Weiya."

The three senior nurses hurriedly greeted.

"You all may leave; I’ll take over."

Xia Weiya walked over to support Su Mo.

The three senior nurses respectfully retreated, and Su Mo didn’t pay much attention, instead quickly asked.

"Is Crock injured too? How severe is it?"

"Isn’t it severe to be lying here? He overloaded the Giant God Soldier and forcefully utilized Negative Energy Pollution power, and also injected doses of anti-pollution serum to extend combat time, ultimately getting seriously injured. The injuries can’t be light, not to mention just talking about that anti-pollution serum; it does extend combat time, but the side effects are quite severe."

Xia Weiya explained with some fear.

"That severe?"

"But don’t worry, at least Crock’s strength is evident, but Kux wasn’t so lucky."

Xia Weiya mildly sighed.

"What happened to Kux?"

"What happened was, he forcefully injected two anti-pollution serums to extend combat time, ultimately lost control, went berserk, and was killed."

Xia Weiya replied solemnly.

"How many from the Royal Order died this time?"

Su Mo asked in shock.

"Besides Kux, Loren also died."

Xia Weiya took a deep breath, her voice low as she replied, not really wanting to mention Loren.

"Loren sacrificed too? So the Royal Order only has six left?"

"Yes, actually if Lord Icaroya hadn’t ordered retreat for those who couldn’t hold on, along with your timely support, it might not have been just six left, perhaps all but the fourth might have been wiped out."

Xia Weiya replied calmly.

Hearing Xia Weiya’s words, Su Mo’s mind was somewhat disorientated, after a long while he slowly sighed.

"Anyway, why are you here?"

"To see you, of course. I’ve been here several times before, but you were always unconscious."

"Thank you."

"There’s no need for thanks; if not for your timely support, I might have been long dead."

Xia Weiya said with some sentiment.

"We are companions; it’s nothing really. If I were in danger, wouldn’t you try to save me?"

Su Mo replied indifferently.

"Maybe not, perhaps I’d just escape alone."

Xia Weiya joked with a smile.

Su Mo also smiled along, feeling much better, he then continued to ask.
