"Damn! Don't try to be brave and tear the wound. " Sergei's face turned ugly. He used the towel to wipe the sweat on his shoulder to cover the wound. He slightly frowned as he felt the burning pain.
Dean had smelled the smell of blood from Sergei's body. He knew the reason as he saw Sergei's action. His mouth curved into a smile as he continued to persist.
Sergei looked back at Dudian. He saw that Dudian's arm was shaking but he was still able to stabilize his body. Sergei's eyes were gloomy. He wanted to announce the end of the training so that his wound would not worsen. But just as the words were about to come out of his mouth, he suddenly stopped. He thought that if he were to admit defeat like this, he would definitely think that he was afraid of getting hurt when he saw his wound!
When he thought of this, he steeled his heart and wrapped the towel in front of his chest. He gritted his teeth and continued to pick up the stone blocks on the ground and dismantle the wall.
Dean saw that Sergei didn't say anything. But he didn't say anything and continued to hold his breath. After half an hour, Dean felt that his arm was reaching the limit. On the other side, Sergei's breathing was getting heavier. The white cotton towel was dyed blood red. It would inevitably cause a lot of damage if he continued to lose blood. Dean opened his mouth: "Let's stop here for today."
Sergei's heart was relieved. It was as if he had finally won a hard battle. He sneered: "What's wrong? You can't hold on any longer?"
Dean raised his eyebrows: "I'm afraid that you can't hold on."
Sergei snorted: "Me? I won't be affected even if you are tired! "
Dean's face turned cold: "Is that so? Then let's continue! "
"Let's continue!" Sergei sneered: "Don't shake your feet too much. Be careful of the lead plate."
Dean sneered but didn't reply. He clenched his fingers into the sand. He clenched his teeth and tightened his body. He silently hypnotized himself to forget the soreness and fatigue.
Time slowly passed.
Jin, Scar, Gwyneth, and the others stood at the window sill behind the castle. They looked at the two stubborn men on the dark training ground with a bitter smile on their faces. At the same time, the blood in their hearts was slightly hot. Jin and Gwyneth were secretly competing against each other.
At 9 o 'clock in the evening, Sergei finally lost too much blood. He sat on the ground and couldn't stand up. His face was as pale as paper. His body was sweating and his hands and feet were trembling.
Nicholas saw the situation from the window and immediately ran over. He asked the maid to prepare new towels and hot water. He helped Nicholas back to the castle.
Dean threw off the last lead plate on his feet and fell straight to the ground. His whole body was soft. Scar and Jin rushed over to help him up and sent him back to the castle hall.
Nicholas took out the medical box to bandage Dean's wounds when Dean returned. Nicholas's clothes were soaked in blood. He was lying on the chair. His face was weak and dispirited.
Dean sat on the chair next to him. His hands were still trembling. His arms were still in a ninety-degree position. He didn't dare to move even a little bit. Especially his right hand. There was a strong soreness in his right arm. However, he didn't feel anything on his left hand. But considering the problem of exposing his left hand in front of Nicholas and others, he maintained the same posture as his right hand.
"Today … I admit defeat." Sergei said in a weak voice. He looked at Dean from the corner of his eyes. He didn't even have the strength to tilt his head.
Dean was exhausted but his body wasn't damaged. He had more physical strength than Sergei: "A senior hunter is just so-so."
Sergei's eyes twitched but he didn't have the strength to refute.
After a moment, Nicholas finished bandaging Sergei's wounds. He looked at both of them and smiled: "Why are you doing this on the first day of training? It's too much."
Dean panted: "Let's eat. I'm hungry."
Nicholas smiled slightly and turned to the maid to serve the meal.
Scar and Jin helped Sergei to the dining table. Sergei was also helped to get to the table.
Dean's arm was sore, so he could only let the maid next to him replace his arm and feed him.
After eating, Dean felt that his physical strength had recovered. The soreness in his arms had reduced a lot. He got up and went upstairs. He closed the door with his shoulder. He sat on the bed and rested for a moment. He took out a wooden carving and a knife from the drawer and started to carve. Fortunately, his left hand didn't feel any pain so he could move freely. He just needed to grab the carving with his right hand and carve with his left hand.
After a few hours of exercise, Dean lay down and went to sleep in the early morning.
The next day.
Dean still got up on time. The first thing he felt after waking up was soreness. He gently lifted his right hand. The soreness made him slightly grit his teeth and inhale. After a night's sleep, his body still hadn't recovered. Yesterday, he had overdrawn himself too much. He had repeatedly exceeded his body's limit. He was completely relying on his unyielding spirit to persevere.
Dean sat up, put on his shoes and got out of bed. He shook his arms and went downstairs to the dining room. He saw that Nicholas had already woken up. He asked Nicholas to find hot water to soak his hands in.
Breakfast was ready while Nicholas was soaking his hands. The newspaper was delivered at 6: 30.
Nicholas took the newspaper and served breakfast. Dean took out the hot water and wiped his hands. After soaking them for half an hour, he felt that the soreness in his arms had eased a lot. He didn't feel so unbearable when he bent his arms. He ate breakfast while picking up the newspaper to read.
"Military report!"
"The new weapon 'military crossbow' has been put into the war in the border war. The effect is surprising!"
"Huasheng consortium has produced the first batch of military crossbows. There are only two thousand of them. They have played an unexpected role in the defensive battle at the border fortress of Snow Mountain. The effect of melee combat is obvious. They have successfully defended against the attack of the aliens!"
"The following is an interview with the commander of the defense of Snow Mountain, Colonel 'Bruno' …"
Dean flipped through the newspaper. The headline news was about the war at Snow Mountain. He didn't expect that the fortress of Snow Mountain would be attacked by barbarians while he was training.
Dean's eyes lit up. He estimated that the news had spread to the major consortia before it was published in the newspaper. He didn't expect that the barbarians would dare to take the initiative to attack the fortress. The military crossbow that he had produced was indeed lucky. It showed its greatest value at the right time.
He continued to flip through other newspapers.
"Temple of Elements Daily –"
"The youngest architect in history to win the 'epoch' medal. He has produced a four-star item. The new item is in preparation. What kind of amazing work will the next one be?"
"… Green consortium has reported that architect Dean's new item has entered the pre-sale state. The price is five star item …"
As Dean expected, he had become the focus of attention of the Temple of Elements. He was also the focus of the major consortia. One of the newspapers even wrote that he had recently bailed out Sergei and other four people. However, the one who bailed out was old Fulin. Only a noble could bail out such a felon. However, it was pointed out that he was also involved in the matter.
The questioning words in this report were all an attempt to damage his reputation.
Dean was relieved when he saw the source of the newspaper. It was from the Mellon consortium.
