Chapter 16: Return to Kaiyuan

"call--"

Holding on to a tree trunk, Enzo gasped for breath.

"The chip detects the state of the body."

"Testing.... The host is in a weak state, with multiple injuries to the body, and a large amount of blood loss. It is expected to fall into a coma after 45 minutes. It is recommended to evacuate to a safe area as soon as possible and receive comprehensive treatment."

The mechanical sound of the chip sounded in his head, and Enzo's face was pale. After a short rest, he gritted his teeth and stood firm.

At this moment, a beast roar suddenly came from the distant forest.

The sound spread like ripples, shocking countless birds screaming, flapping their wings to the sky.

"It's Snowman monster!" Enzo's face changed drastically.

The roar of the Snowman behemoth came from the forest boundary, but it was not too far away from this area. If it hits in this direction, with Enzo's current state, it can't fight it at all, and it can't even escape.

Enzo's eyes suddenly flashed dignified, and immediately stepped forward, rushing in the direction of Kaiyuan City.

The wound on his shoulder kept bleeding, and Enzo ran with all his strength, but his face became paler and paler. Gradually, his body began to shake and his consciousness gradually became blurred.

"Hold on and leave the Ice Punishment Forest soon." Enzo clenched his teeth and insisted, trying his best to stay awake.

Suddenly there was a loud noise in the distance, the flames flickering in the dim forest, Enzo vaguely heard someone calling his name, and he responded loudly with all his strength, but his body couldn't hold on anymore and fell to the ground. .

"Alert, the host has lost too much blood and is about to fall into a coma!"

His consciousness began to blur a little. Before he fell into a coma, Enzo saw the distant trees in a daze. Many cavalrymen rushed towards him with torches. The man in the front was dressed in pitch black armor and was burly and majestic. But he was full of anxious expression, which made him feel a little familiar.

"Father..." Enzo murmured with trembling lips.

The next moment, the darkness flooded, Enzo also completely lost consciousness.

...

I don't know how long it took, Enzo regained consciousness and slowly opened his eyes.

The scene in the eye is a familiar room. Enzo raised his hand and lifted the quilt on his body. He sat up from the bed with difficulty and looked at the window. The outside was filled with gray mist, and a bright light rose from the sky in the distance. It's early morning.

"Chip, how long have I been in a coma?" Enzo asked with a frown.

"Host coma time: 14 hours and 22 minutes."

"Is it the next day?" Enzo rubbed his head and called out the door, "Is anyone?"

Crunch, the door was pushed open.

"Master, you are finally awake." The maid Daisy walked in quickly. Seeing Enzo was awake, she suddenly felt relieved, and she let out a long sigh of relief. Then she came to the bed and helped Enzo out of bed. stand up.

The wounds on his body were already covered with bandages, but Enzo was still a little weak due to excessive blood loss.

"Did my father rescue me?" Enzo asked, pale.

"Yes, master." Daisy replied respectfully.

"Yesterday...what happened?" Enzo couldn't help asking, thinking of the two people he met in the Ice Punishment Forest.

"It was the Iron Scythe family's army that attacked Kaiyuan City!" Daisy seemed to have lingering fears, and raised her head slightly, ": Yesterday afternoon, the Iron Scythe family army assembled outside Kaiyuan City, and a great knight using a giant axe smashed the city gate. , Many cavalry from the Iron Sickle family poured in."

Daisy said, a trace of fear flashed in her eyes.

"After the cavalry entered the city gate, they began to frantically kill the civilians and plunder everything. Under the leadership of that great knight, the guard knights in the city could not resist at all. Fortunately, at this time, the two adults, O'Queen and Tyron, were in time. Appeared and controlled the situation."

"The Great Axe Knight was injured by Lord Tyron, and the Iron Scythe family army subsequently withdrew from Kaiyuan City."

"I don't know what happened after that..."

After listening to Daisy's narration, Enzo probably understood what happened yesterday. All of this was the plan of the Iron Scythe family. They first used the Snowfang monster to lure Enzo and others to the Ice Punishment Forest, taking advantage of the weak defense of the town. Fortunately, even if O'Queen and Tyron appeared, they took control of the situation.

After that, O'Queen found that his only son had disappeared, and immediately went to the Ice Punishment Forest to find him, just in time to rescue Enzo, who had been seriously injured.

"Father is there? I'm going to see him." Enzo suddenly said.

"Master O'Queen is in the living room. He has also ordered you to meet him in the study after you wake up."

Enzo nodded, recovering some strength at this time, and was helped by Daisy to leave the room and walked toward the living room.

Not long after, Enzo came to the door of the study.

Pushing open the door, Enzo walked in. There was no change in the furnishings in the study, but the temperature in the room was warmer than before. In front of the office desk, O'Queen sat on a chair majesticly, his face expressionless, his eyes staring coldly. On the desk, pieces of parchment filled with information.

A smile appeared on O'Queen's face when Enzo came in.

"My father," Enzo greeted softly.

"You are here, sit down." O'Queen pointed to a chair, motioned Enzo to sit down, and asked gently, "How is it? Is your health better?"

"The wound has been treated very well and will recover within a few days."

When Enzo was in a coma, the doctors in the castle dealt with the wounds in a timely manner. Although he was still weak due to excessive blood loss, with the knight's physique, he could fully recover after a few days of rest without leaving any sequelae. .

"That's good." O'Queen nodded slightly and said, "I ordered someone to prepare breakfast, let's eat together."

After that, O'Queen yelled to the door, and immediately there was a male servant pushing the dining car in, and quickly presented the breakfast to the table.

"It just happens to be a little hungry." Enzo touched his abdomen, he was not polite, picked up a bowl of sweet porridge and drank.

Seeing Enzo had a good appetite, O'Queen smiled, and also served a plate of meat steaks, the father and son did not speak, and quietly enjoyed the rich breakfast.

The study was quiet, only the sound of tableware colliding.

Enzo was hungry in his belly, and soon drank three bowls of sweet porridge, filling his stomach while also regaining some strength, but O'Queen was eating very slowly, and only half of a steak was eaten in half a day, chewing The swallowing action is also very awkward, it seems that he is not hungry, but is forced to eat.

Suddenly, O'Queen's steak-cutting hands paused, and an unnatural flush of flush appeared on his face.

"Puff...cough, cough!"

A mouthful of blood squirted on the table, and O'Queen's face instantly became ugly, his palms pressed against his chest, there was violent ups and downs, and it collapsed and bulged quickly, as if it were about to explode, which looked extremely terrifying.
