"Lanlan!" ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
He Hanshi called out to her nervously. Shi Lan paused, turned back to close the prison door securely, and gave him a smile.
"Don’t worry, it’ll be fine."
He Hanshi also knew that someone had to go in. If Mu Tangfeng kept bleeding like this, his injuries might become even more severe.
It was just that, seeing it was Shi Lan, his subconscious instinct was one of unease.
Shi Lan gave him a reassuring look. The others heard the prison door open and, connecting it with Mu Tangfeng’s sudden silence, seemed to have guessed what was happening.
Worried that they might wake Mu Tangfeng and cause him to harm Shi Lan, everyone tacitly remained silent.
Inside the prison, Shi Lan slowly walked over to Mu Tangfeng’s side.
In truth, she was terrified, but she knew she couldn’t back down in a situation like this.
When she had been in danger, Mu Tangfeng had come to save her without a second thought. What reason did she have to abandon him when he was the one who was hurt?
She looked at the Bird of Paradise’s increasingly tattered feathers, a trace of pity welling in her eyes. Unable to stop herself, she crouched down, gently stroked his head, and removed the tranquilizer needles from his body before struggling to lift him.
Though the Bird of Paradise appeared sleek and graceful when it spread its wings—neither too fat nor too thin, its flight a beautiful dance in the sky—it was, in fact, very heavy.
Shi Lan’s small frame couldn’t help but sag under the weight.
On her first try, she failed to lift him. She glanced back nervously, relieved to see he was still unconscious. The tranquilizer must have taken effect.
Shi Lan breathed a sigh of relief and tried again. She draped his wings over her shoulders, spread her feet, bent her waist, and with a great heave, finally managed to support his weight, her back hunched with the effort.
Holding her breath, she started towards the Treatment Pod inside the prison. Thankfully, she’d been here once before and was familiar with the way.
After the arduous task of getting him next to the Treatment Pod, Shi Lan’s strength finally gave out. Half of Mu Tangfeng’s body crashed into the pod, leaving his long talons and one wing dangling outside.
She glanced back, feeling a little guilty. Panting with exhaustion, she slowly shifted the rest of him into the Treatment Pod.
Fortunately, he remained deeply unconscious throughout the process.
Shi Lan let out a long sigh. Just as she was about to close the Treatment Pod, his wing suddenly lifted.
She was so frightened she fell to the floor, nearly deciding to turn into a mushroom and flee. But when she saw that Mu Tangfeng made no other movements, she summoned her courage and carefully tucked his wing back inside.
Thankfully, everything went smoothly.
Relieved, she raised her hand to close the Treatment Pod, but Xiao Du suddenly spoke up. [Master, he’s unconscious right now. Why don’t you try healing him?]
Shi Lan’s heart stirred. "Can I really?"
[Master, let’s give it a try.]
"Okay."
Shi Lan looked at the unconscious man, thinking that this was indeed a good opportunity. She nodded. "What should I do?"
After all, she had never taken a proper female healing class here. She only had the original owner’s memories, so Shi Lan still lacked confidence.
[It’s simple. Just try to sense your spiritual power, then guide your spiritual power threads into his body. The Spiritual Poison inside looks like little green dots. Just use your spiritual power threads to swallow them.]
Xiao Du’s explanation was very detailed, but Shi Lan only half-understood.
To verify if the treatment was effective, she first placed her wrist against Mu Tangfeng’s and used her own chip to test his spiritual power collapse value: 53%.
That was better than she’d expected. In fact, Xiao Du had just helped lower it by 1%.
After confirming the initial value, Shi Lan tried the method Xiao Du had described. She placed her hand on the back of Mu Tangfeng’s and began to concentrate, trying to feel it out.
She closed her eyes slightly, recalling the fluctuation of spiritual power the female lead had released earlier, and tried to capture that feeling.
Soon, she felt a spiritual power thread surge from where their hands touched and enter his body.
The spiritual power thread had a difficult time advancing. It hadn’t gone far before it was blocked by the numerous green toxins in his arm.
Shi Lan slowly used her spiritual power thread to envelop the toxins.
One bite, two bites...
After struggling to clear half of his arm, she thought of the wounds on his body and quickly withdrew her power.
For some reason, even though she remembered everyone saying that females would feel tired and drained of spiritual power after performing a treatment, she actually felt more energized.
The exhaustion from carrying him had vanished completely.
Shi Lan once again realized how unique her spirit body was. It seemed these spiritual poisons were a great tonic for her.
She thoughtfully lowered her hand and tested him again with her chip. In that short time, the value had actually dropped by one point, and was now 52%.
It really works!!
Shi Lan’s eyes lit up instantly, her heart once again filled with hope.
’This is wonderful! From now on, I can help heal them. My spirit body won’t worsen their collapse values.’
Shi Lan couldn’t wait to share the good news with Xiao Du in her mind. Xiao Du boasted proudly, [Of course! My master is the most amazing! I knew you could do it~]
"Mhm."
Shi Lan had never been affirmed with such conviction before. A happy smile curved her lips as she finished closing the Treatment Pod for Mu Tangfeng.
’No matter what, I now have a chance to change their fates in this story.’
Shi Lan leaned against the Treatment Pod, grinning foolishly for a moment. But when she looked up and saw the devastated room and the scattered robot parts in the corner, her head started to ache.
’Looks like I’ll have to find a housekeeper robot to come and help clean up later.’
She stood up and left Prison No. 2. Seeing her emerge completely unscathed, He Hanshi finally relaxed. "Is it over?"
"It’s over."
Shi Lan’s previously worried expression was gone, replaced by a happy smile for him.
He Hanshi was a little confused, but he followed her lead and let his own lips curve into a faint smile.
Just then, Shi Lan suddenly asked, "If I said I could treat you all, would you be willing?"
Before He Hanshi could answer, Jiang Xia, who had been closely watching the situation, immediately piped up, "I’m willing, Lanlan! I want you to treat me. I don’t want any other females."
Before, they had assumed Shi Lan’s spiritual power was too low for her to provide treatment. They didn’t want to burden her, which was why they had specifically called for a medical team.
If Lanlan was able to do it, there was no way they would let another female get close to them.
Yan Huoshui’s eyes shifted slightly. "Does this mean that Lanlan’s spiritual power has reached A-level?"
To treat someone in their condition, anything less than A-level would be impossible. In fact, even A-level was not enough to successfully treat them.
There was no cure for those with Advanced Spiritual Power collapse, but there was hope of reaching a balance point of 50%. As long as their spiritual power didn’t reject the female’s treatment, they could maintain their lives by staying at 50% and keep their spiritual power from collapsing into a rampage. The only downside was that they would be fated to never fight against the Insect Clan for long periods again.
That didn’t matter to Yan Huoshui, but he suspected He Hanshi would find it hard to bear...
However, even at 50%, they still wouldn’t be able to leave the prison unless they could recover to a level below 50%.
But that was clearly impossible.
The more clearly Yan Huoshui understood this, the heavier his heart became. It seemed that their search for a medical team had been completely meaningless.
He fell silent once more. Shi Lan, unaware of his complex train of thought, simply hummed in agreement with his question.
’I don’t even know my own Level, and I don’t dare to test it. I’m worried my chip isn’t private enough and I’ll measure something truly unbelievable. In any case, I’ll just try healing them first.’
"So, are you all willing?"
She repeated the question. Everyone replied, "We are." Jiang Xia, for some reason she couldn’t guess, blushed and added shyly, "Lanlan, you are our future wife. Of course we’re willing to let you treat us."
