Chapter 72 Recovery
For seven consecutive days, Li Chenglong remained unconscious, with Yun Lan staying by his side without leaving his side. On the third day of his coma, at Li Xue's suggestion, Li Chenglong was escorted to the city lord's room in the Dawn Building. During this time, representatives from all walks of life in Dawn City came to visit him in an endless stream. The two young girls, Han Xiaoling and Cao Yuechan, even stayed for an entire day. Students from both the superhuman academy and ordinary schools trained and studied even harder than usual.
On May 19, 2024, in Li Chenglong and Yun Lan's room, Yun Lan sat on one side of the bed and asked Li Xue beside her, "When will your older brother wake up? Today is the seventh day." Li Xue shook her head with a worried expression, "My brother's body has recovered, but his strength is still only 20%, and I can sense that his mental strength is very low." Yun Lan opened the Phoenix Eye in her right eye: Li Chenglong, SS-level Level 5 Dragon-Phoenix Body Awakener, Constitution 290, Strength 282, Agility 280, Spirit 150.
Li Xue, staring intently at Li Chenglong's face, suddenly said, "I've just thought of something. We can go ask Alice and see if she has any ideas." Yun Lan immediately stood up and said, "You stay here and watch over things. I'll be right back." She then went to the computer lab. As soon as she entered, a 3D image of Alice appeared in front of the main computer. Before Yun Lan could speak, Alice said, "I know why you're here. With your abilities, you can't save him right now." Yun Lan quickly asked, "Then do you have any way to save him? I'll do anything for you." Alice blinked her blue eyes and said, "Give me a blue crystal, and I can think of something." Yun Lan didn't say much and directly took out the blue crystal she had dug up from the fishman: "Here you go."
Alice's eyes flashed with blue light, and the blue crystal vanished. She then told Yunlan, "Go back first and come back in twenty minutes." After Yunlan left, Alice began reading obscure language, and a beam of blue light shot out. Five minutes later, a door suddenly opened in the computer room, and a woman in a black cloak emerged. She removed her hat, revealing thick, smooth blue hair. She tidied her hair and asked in a pleasant voice, "What happened? You know I'm in hibernation; I need to conserve my strength for the upcoming battle." Alice said, "Little master, you didn't know while in hibernation, but look at your ring now."
The woman glanced at the two rings on her left and right hands. The phoenix ring on her right hand was perfectly normal, but the dragon ring on her left hand was unusually dull, seemingly on the verge of collapse. The woman was startled and quickly closed her eyes to sense the rings before asking, "What happened?" Alice recounted the whole story to the woman. Alice then said, "That's how it is. I suspect they are allies of Kiel, from Dayne. As you know, eighty percent of Dayne's surface is ocean, and it has many warlike Dayne people." The woman nodded. "You're right. The men and women of their planet are all warlike and bloodthirsty. They were among those who attacked our Mera. Alright, let's not talk about that now. I know why you called me here."
Alice had the robot pour the woman a cup of coffee: "This is from Earth. I saw they really enjoyed it. I wonder if it suits your taste." The woman looked at the coffee: "No, I've already tried it, and I can't stand it." A few minutes later, Yunlan walked in. She was startled to see a black cloaked figure standing next to Alice in the computer room and quickly assumed a fighting stance. Alice quickly said, "Miss Yunlan, don't worry. This is the person I invited to heal Li Chenglong's injuries." Hearing this, Yunlan lowered her stance. The woman had already put her cloak back on, then turned and said, "Didn't you receive the information on the mysterious person a long time ago? Why is the zombie virus still taking over Earth?"
Yunlan asked in surprise, "Who are you?" The woman nodded, "That's right, but I didn't come here for that. Take me to Li Chenglong." Alice also said, "Yes, please trust her. She has absolutely no ill intentions towards you." Yunlan nodded and immediately led the way to the seventh floor. On the way to the seventh floor, the woman took off the dragon and phoenix ring from her hand and handed it to Yunlan. "Although you now possess the bodies of dragons and phoenixes, they are not complete. Wear this ring. As for the other one, I hope you will give it to him." Yunlan was even more surprised when she saw the ring with the same pattern as her ring finger, but treating Li Chenglong was the priority, so she didn't say anything.
A minute later, the two arrived at the city lord's room on the seventh floor. Li Xue greeted them as soon as they entered, somewhat surprised to see the mysterious figure beside Yun Lan. Yun Lan said, "Xue'er, let her treat Li Chenglong first." The three then went to Li Chenglong's bedside. The woman examined Li Chenglong and said, "His mental strength is severely damaged due to excessive consumption. If he doesn't wake up in time, he may never wake up again." Yun Lan and Li Xue anxiously asked, "What should we do?" The woman waved her hand, "Don't worry too much, I'll treat him right away. To be honest, I'm doing this for you. If it were anyone else, even if they knelt down and begged me for three days and three nights, I couldn't save them, because this treatment is extremely taxing even for me."
She then removed her black hat, causing Yunlan and Li Xue to gasp in surprise. Li Xue murmured, "What a beautiful person." Realizing her words were inappropriate, she quickly covered her mouth. The woman smiled slightly, "My name is Erica, Erica Belmont. We're acquainted now." She then took off her coat, removed a sky-blue heart-shaped pendant from her neck, and held it in her palms. She then began chanting incantations in an unknown language. Beams of blue light gradually shone towards Li Chenglong. Fifteen minutes later, drenched in sweat, Erica put the pendant back on. The pendant, which had previously emitted a sky-blue light, was now white.
Erica began putting her cloak back on, then said, "It's nothing serious now. He should wake up by tomorrow at the latest." Yunlan and Li Xue immediately went to Erica's side, "Thank you for saving him, thank you so much." Erica waved her hand, "Yunlan, can you promise me something?" Yunlan was taken aback, "What is it?" Erica said, "If I need you in the future, please lend me a hand." Yunlan nodded seriously, "Okay, as long as it's not something immoral, we will do our best when you need us." Erica smiled and said, "I have to go now. Before I leave, I'll give you a gift. You said men's eyes are on the left and women's on the right, but your Phoenix Eye is on the right, just like Li Chenglong's, isn't it?" Yunlan's mouth opened slightly, "How did you know?!" Erica smiled faintly, put on her cloak, and then said, "During the treatment just now, I moved his Dragon Eye to his left eye, heh heh."
Just as Yunlan was about to say something, the space itself cracked open, revealing a door. Alice opened the door and said, "You can only tell Li Chenglong about my affairs; no one else is allowed. It's not the right time yet. Oh, and I left Alice some documents, but currently only Yunlan and Li Chenglong have the right to read them. You must make good use of them." She then disappeared into the doorway. Yunlan and Li Xue stared at each other in astonishment, speechless for a long time.
