Ember’s Gun

Chapter 142: First test drive

Views:

The steel is intertwined and bitten to death. Sometimes you will feel that the entire perpetual motion pump is like a mechanical life with its own life. The heavy and complex mechanical structure is its organ, and the electric current of blood is surging in the metal-cast conduits.

The boy raised his head and looked at the metal ceiling above his head. Perhaps everyone who wakes up from a sickness has this in common: when they wake up, they don't see any caring eyes or fireworks surrounding them, but just the monotonous ceiling.

"You look fine, kid. The armor protected you, or you might never wake up again."

The doctor saw that he had woken up and examined him, and told him what had happened during his coma.

The boy didn't say anything, just stared blankly at the ceiling, immersed in his own world.

The doctor seemed to be used to this and didn't care about the boy's reaction. He just did the work for him and placed the new medicines on the other side of the bed.

He was the only one in the entire ward. This was a room customized for him, a room that belonged only to him.

As the doctor left, the room became quiet again. Perhaps due to the effect of the medicine, the boy felt very sleepy, but did not want to fall asleep like this. He had no feeling in his lower body, and he tried to sit up with his hands, but the residual pain in his body prevented him from doing anything.

"Yo, Ovis, I'm so happy to see you wake up."

Suddenly the door was opened again, and Merlin walked in cheerfully, although the smile on his almost dead face was a bit scary.

Merlin then walked to the bed and helped Ovis sit up. He looked very young, so young that he looked like an adult.

"How did it feel this time? Did you still have nightmares?"

Merlin didn't care about Ovis's indifference, he was already used to it, and continued to ask with concern.

“Yes, but it’s very vague.”

Ovis finally spoke, his voice calm.

Passing out in the armor is a very dangerous thing. The demon's power will continue to erode the driver, and in a coma, the driver's will is completely defenseless, which will accelerate the degree of erosion.

It had been a long time since Ovis had passed out in the armor, but this time he had suffered a great trauma and was lucky to be alive.

"What exactly is it?"

Merlin then asked, as if he was doing some research.

"Very vague... You also know that people cannot record dreams completely. I can only see the grayness of illusion and obscure sounds... Why are you asking these questions?"

Ovis looked at Merlin. He usually didn't ask these questions.

Dreams are very strange things. Usually you can't remember how you arrived at the dream. That strange world is extremely chaotic, but it's like there is another force suggesting you. Even if it is completely inconsistent with the laws of physics, your brain will recognize it as a normal state.

"We have a new test driver. You have met him, Mr. Lorenzo Holmes. To be honest, I am also uneasy about the demon hunter testing the original sin armor."

"After all, every knight's first time driving armor is accompanied by huge risks."
