"breathe-"
Richard took a deep breath and stretched out his hand to try to massage the carotid artery on the outside of his throat to stimulate the surrounding nerves to slow down his heartbeat. Then, almost crawling on the ground, he moved slowly towards the corner of the room, grabbed a wooden barrel placed in the corner, and knocked it down hard. The clear water in the bucket gushes out and soaks the whole body, causing the body surface temperature to begin to drop, the metabolism to slow down, and the heartbeat to slow down, but the beating speed has not yet dropped to normal levels.
Richard had to move to another corner, where the suitcase he had brought was placed. There were some medicines in the suitcase that could lower the heart rate.
"breathe-"
"breathe-"
Richard tried hard to control his emotions not to fluctuate, to control his heart rate not to increase, and to move centimeter by centimeter.
At this moment, footsteps sounded at the door, but it was Pandora who heard the abnormal noise in the room, ran in from the outside, and looked at Richard at the door with wide eyes.
Richard no longer had the energy to explain, so he just pointed at the suitcase with his hand.
Pandora's eyes flashed, and she trotted to the suitcase, opened it, took out a test tube and handed it to Richard.
When their eyes met, Richard felt really uncomfortable, and then shook his head.
Pandora immediately threw away the test tube, took out a beaker from the suitcase, and handed it to Richard.
Richard felt even more uncomfortable and shook his head again.
Pandora rummaged for the third time and found a bottle of sulfuric acid.
Richard felt that if he drank it, he would die faster, so he shook his head firmly.
Pandora rummaged for the fourth time and found a bottle of caustic soda. The fifth, sixth, and seventh times...
I don't know how many times I went there, but I finally got what Richard wanted.
"This?" Pandora asked with her eyes.
"Yes." Richard could no longer make a sound and just nodded vigorously in reply.
Pandora immediately handed over the thing.
Richard caught it, sprinkled a bag of medicinal powder into his mouth, then swallowed it with difficulty, lay flat on the ground, and began to breathe deeply.
Pandora stood and watched nearby, her face still cold, but her eyes were a little at a loss. She didn't know if she could help Richard.
But Richard had no time to pay attention to Pandora anymore, and concentrated all his energy on keeping his heart rate from rising, waiting for the medicine powder he swallowed to take effect.
During this process, Richard couldn't help but think that the force that suddenly descended on the mountain and returned with his consciousness not only protected his consciousness and resisted the mental fluctuations of the crystal skull, but also In turn, it injured the Crystal Skull.
No matter how you look at it, it can be considered extremely powerful, just like in some hot-blooded comics, where the protagonist explodes into a small universe at a critical moment. But now it seems that there is no free lunch, and being able to do this requires paying a huge price, which is overdrafting the life force of the body. If it happens again, I really don’t know if I will die suddenly.
"breathe-"
"breathe-"
The heartbeat was slowly slowing down, but it would take some time for the drug to fully take effect. Richard felt his consciousness begin to blur uncontrollably, and he felt a little wary in his heart, not to fall into a coma.
You must not fall into a coma!
Richard said in his heart, but as soon as he finished thinking this, his eyes went dark.
…
Darkness, endless darkness.
Consciousness is like being in an endless universe.
There is no up, down, left, right, south, east or west, no passage of time, consciousness is just floating in the darkness.
Until a beam of light appeared, illuminating the entire space, and then it became brighter.
Richard felt his consciousness come back to life, and he gradually regained his perception and control of his body. The next moment, he found that the beating of his heart had slowed down and dropped to normal levels. Although my body was still aching vaguely, it was much better at first.
Open your eyes, slowly open your eyes.
The scene in front of him appeared, and then Richard's breath froze, and he saw a pair of big, round eyes looking at him almost on his face.
His own eyes flashed, and the other's eyes flashed.
If your own eyes flash again, the other person's eyes will flash again.
Just as Richard was about to ask why he was so close, Pandora had already looked back and said, "Scared!"
Who is scaring whom? !
Richard struggled to stand up and found that he was still lying on the floor of the room. The bucket was upside down, the suitcase in the corner was open, and various instruments were thrown everywhere. It was a mess. He looked no different from before he fell into coma.
"How long will I be unconscious?" Richard looked at Pandora and asked with a frown.
Pandora held out a finger.
What kind of answer is this? One minute, one hour
The next moment, Richard knew the answer. Walking out of the room and looking outside the castle, I found that the sky was already bright. Pandora stretched out a finger, which obviously meant - one night.
Well, it requires some understanding.
Afterwards, after some exchanges, Richard learned more.
For example, shortly after he fell into coma, the beast tide suddenly dispersed. Gregory thought it was because he used excessive force to scare away the crazy animals. Now it seems that he caused a crack in the crystal skull. .
I just don’t know how big the impact will be. Will the beast tide retreat temporarily, or will it never happen again? In other words, there will be some other unexpected changes.
In this regard, Richard felt that it would be better to find a way to get the crystal skull out of the mountain. No matter whether it is research or whatever, it would be invincible. After all, if there is any disadvantage, you can just smash the crystal skull with a hammer.
However, it is not easy to take out the crystal skull from the mountain.
Richard thought for a moment, found the magic props he had made with the internal organs of a silver rabbit and took it with him. He walked out of the castle and walked down the hill, with Pandora following behind him.
When he walked down the mountain and passed the water pool, Richard found a group of animals drinking water.
Because she was in a coma, Pandora did not come to maintain order this morning, but even so, most of the animals were queuing up consciously.
Well, most of them, except... the spiky boar.
Seeing that Pandora did not appear today, the wild boar was particularly excited. Although he arrived a little late and was at the end of the queue, it didn't matter. He just lowered his head and arched forward.
rabbit? You can beat it, Gong!
Coyotes? You can beat it, Gong!
squirrel? You can beat it, Gong!
Cheetah? Well, this is a bit difficult to hit, so don’t worry, just go around and continue arching!
The wild boar was so happy that it looked closer and closer to the pool. It grinned and couldn't help but stick out its tongue in advance. Regardless of the fact that most of the team was confused by it, they just lowered their heads and continued to move forward.
Rock goat? arch! White deer? arch! Mountain badger? arch!
Lynx, weasel, fox? Gonggonggong!
It's close, it's closer, I'll be able to drink water soon.
Hey, what is this purple thing? Sable? still…
