The Broken Blade knight had been moved by Hao Ren and the rest to a flatter ground, and was flipped over for a thorough check, but just as they found out, the knight's injuries were all healed.
And the MDT's further scan also found that his body was completely healthy, not only were there no wounds, his insides were also in order, and other than the fact that he was' unconscious', there was nothing wrong with him.
Hao Ren also got the MDT to check if there were any signs of mechanical modification in the knight's body, but the conclusion was that he was no different from a normal person. Looks like the Broken Blade and the Ebon Blade used a completely different 'production technology', and the former's superior combat ability must have been achieved through other means.
"I have a theory," Awenna suddenly said as she looked at the unconscious Broken Blade knight, "His injuries might have been healed by that tree."
Hao Ren looked at the giant tree in the middle of the ruins, and the giant tree that the Holy King sacrificed her life to transform into still stood on the land, and while the kingdom that the Holy King and her people fought to protect was gone, the life force still emanated from the giant tree, as if the war was still ongoing.
"It's very possible." Vivian nodded gently. "He escaped here with serious injuries, and then fell next to the roots of the Tree of Life. The power from the Tree of Life healed his body, but because of the severe injuries, his spirit had dissipated. As a result, he was unconscious without any injuries."
"But his soul has not dissipated," Rheia suddenly interjected, "I can see that his soul is still lingering in his body, but it is very weak, and under the influence of the Black Forest, his soul is slowly turning towards the direction of the Black Forest, and that makes it harder for him to wake up."
Lily's eyes widened, "Won't he really turn into a vegetable?"
"We need to think of a way to wake him up, and figure out what happened." Hao Ren nodded, "The simple medical equipment I brought with me isn't very good at dealing with special situations like this, who wants to try?"
Without hesitation, Vivian summoned a crackling ball of lightning. Before she could throw the ball at Vivian, Lily jumped up and yelled, "Battie, take it easy! Even if he doesn't end up in a vegetative state, he will end up in a vegetative state! "
Vivian rolled her eyes at Lily. She threw the Lightning Orb at the Knight of the Broken Blade and said, "What do you know? This is how electrotherapy works! I know what to do! "
With a loud crack, the Broken Blade Knight's entire body bounced up, but other than being split into an Afro, there seemed to be no other changes.
Lily shook her head. "Can you do it or not … Forget it, I'll just pinch him …"
But before the werehusky could do anything, Rheia pushed her aside. "Forget it, I'll do it. That finger of yours will kill him again. I've studied souls before, so I might be able to reverse the changes in his soul. "
With the goddess of creation, who had once created countless lives, personally taking action, the two half-baked medics fell silent as they focused on Rheia's operation.
Rheia's actions were simple and brutal. She reached out and grabbed at the knight's chest, but when her arm got close to the knight, it turned into a strange translucent form. The translucent hand reached into the knight's body, and after a few grabs, she pulled out a glowing object from the knight's body!
Seeing this, Hao Ren knew that Rheia's operation was not something anyone else could learn. While it looked simple, there was probably more than one conceptual conversion and information extraction involved, or else she would not have been able to pull out a formless soul so easily!
"I say … are you sure you can do it?" Looking at Rheia's next move, Vivian could not help but ask, "You don't look like you're healing …"
"Don't worry about me," Rheia said as she rubbed the soul around. "I've always been a very stable person, and I won't do anything rash …"
Hao Ren rolled his eyes as he heard that. A very stable person could have killed himself ten thousand years ago? And even made a plan to destroy his entire family after he died …
But no matter how unreliable it seemed to others, Rheia's mysterious operation had successfully stabilized the "soul", and after a series of steps that looked like a steamed bun, she stuffed the light back into the Broken Blade Knight's body, and then snapped her fingers beside his ear. "Done!"
The Broken Blade Knight slowly woke up …
Lily was shocked. "You actually did it?!"
"Why not? I may not have been educated, but I can still do this." Rheia rolled her eyes at Lily, and turned to look at the Broken Blade Knight who had just woken up from his deep slumber. As he focused his gaze, she saw the obvious nervousness and wariness. "Don't worry, we're not enemies. We saved you. Do you remember? You can just fall over there. "
The moment the Broken Blade Knight woke up, he saw a large group of strangers surrounding him, and most of them were armed. His first reaction was to be on guard, but Rheia's harmless appearance and reassuring voice calmed him down a little. He quickly scanned his surroundings from the corner of his eye, and confirmed everyone's general characteristics, position, possible identity, and the weapons they were wearing, and deduced his current situation.
The guards armed to the teeth were obviously a threat. Although the strength of a normal warrior was not worth mentioning in the eyes of a Broken Blade Knight, he was currently in a trance, weak, and had a strange numbness that he could not get rid of. Therefore, the threat that a normal warrior could pose was not to be underestimated.
Nearby, there were two people with gray hair who looked like brother and sister. Although they were not wearing armor, there were obvious magical energy waves from them. One of the men even had a sword on his waist. They were obviously combatants, and their strength was probably stronger than the soldiers around them.
Only the man and three women closest to him seemed less threatening. The four of them did not have any weapons on them, and there was even a child among them, and it was obvious that they were the weakest …
Hao Ren did not know how much the Broken Blade Knight, who was dressed like a Black Star Trooper, had thought in that split second. Noticing that the Broken Blade Knight had regained consciousness and calmed down, he asked, "You're awake? Do you remember how you got here? "
"I feel like … I had a long dream …" The Broken Blade Knight struggled to sit up, and in the process, his body involuntarily trembled a few times, and there were faint sparks of electricity coursing through the gaps of his armor. "I went through a battle, with many enemies whose faces I couldn't see clearly, and in the end, I turned into a tree … and was struck by lightning …"
Everyone's gaze involuntarily turned to Vivian.
Vivian blushed as she turned her head to the side, "At least that means my electrotherapy worked, at least it reached the focus …"
"You're not from the empire," the Broken Blade Knight shook his head, trying to dispel the buzzing in his head and the strange feeling of weakness, and in the process, his mind became clearer. "Who are you?"
"A traveler from Izzo," before Hao Ren could speak, Charlemagne said, "Due to some reason, we were being hunted by the Knights of the Ebon Blade, and had no choice but to escape into the Black Forest, and then we found you in the ruins."
He did not directly reveal his identity, and even though he and Awenna had turned their attention to Princess Constance, who was behind the Knights of the Broken Blade, it was better to be cautious without knowing who this Broken Blade Knight was. As for being hunted by the Knights of the Ebon Blade, he could tell them. After all, Constance had raised the flag of rebellion, and the Knights of the Broken Blade and the Ebon Blade were enemies.
"The people of Izzo being hunted by the Knights of the Ebon Blade …" The Broken Blade Knight's gaze changed slightly, and he sighed softly, "That's normal, they have lost their minds, and foreigners like you will be very dangerous in the south of the empire."
He then stood up shakily, and gave a solemn bow that Hao Ren did not recognize, "I am Princess Constance's loyal warrior, Graeme Glavos. Your righteous deed will not be let down, and Princess Constance will reward you well."
"Let's not talk about that first, we did not save you because of that, Mister Glavos," Hao Ren waved his hand, "We now know each other, right? So can you please explain in more detail why a Broken Blade Knight would appear in the heart of the Black Forest? We already know the news of the empire's civil war, and the battle between you and the Knights of the Ebon Blade. If I'm not wrong, you are one of the Broken Blades who fought against the imperial army at the Copporus River? Some of the scars on your armor have traces of erosion and shock, and that is a phenomenon that can only be caused by the Knights of the Ebon Blade's mechanical sword. What happened after that? Did you leave the main force? "
Graeme Glavos was naturally a little suspicious and cautious when a group of "Izzo travelers" suddenly appeared and asked him about these things. However, these strangers in front of him had just saved his life, and the things they asked about were not confidential. His suspicions and cautiousness were of course not worth mentioning. He nodded, "Just call me Graeme. As you said, I am one of the Broken Blades who participated in the battle that day."
He then began to talk about what happened to him.
"It was an accident, but it quickly turned into a huge battle," Graeme said, "We were going to the north to respond to the princess' edict, but we ran into the wandering imperial army at the Copporus River, and the Knights of the Ebon Blade happened to be nearby, and that was how the battle broke out and escalated. We suffered heavy losses in that battle, but most of us managed to retreat. We then split into two groups, half of us went on a mission elsewhere, while the other half continued to head north through the Black Forest as planned, and I belonged to the latter. "
"But the roads into the Black Forest are all blocked by the Knights of the Ebon Blade," Charlemagne frowned, "Not to mention Greenway, there are also knights stationed at the Dowling Junction in the west and the Woodwoods Town in the east, and from the looks of it … you did not look like you disguised yourself to pass the checkpoint, so did you force your way in?"
The prince could not help but feel a little awkward as he recalled that his group had disguised themselves, but still managed to break through the blockade of the Knights of the Ebon Blade and the imperial army and barged into the Black Forest …
Graeme shook his head, "We did not enter from those junctions, but from the Longwind Mountains."
