Knowing it's not very realistic, she couldn't help but ask, "Why are you wearing a mask?"
Upon hearing this, Xavier's heart trembled, even his fists couldn't help clenching.
He restrained his emotions, helplessly smiling, "I, like you, suffered severe injuries and disfigured my face, but my situation is even worse than yours."
"Can I see your face?"
Ella was not ying to make strong demands of others, but for some reason, she urgently wanted to see the man's face.
Is he really... the person she is thinking of in her heart!
Xavier panicked, hastily saying, "Sorry, I am too ugly, afraid to scare you."
Seeing the other's dilemma, Ella chuckled dryly, "It's my fault for being too curious, please don't mind."
It must be her overthinking, Xavier had long since died, not to mention she was too familiar with Xavier's voice, it was clearly different from this man.
Xavier could clearly see the lost look in her eyes, which were also filled with tears. Worried that his emotions might get out of control in front of her, he got up and said, "I'll go get Dr. Hawke to come help you."
After speaking, he hurriedly left.
Ella gazed at his back for a long time, feeling that strong sense of familiarity once again.
...
When Hawke rushed over, Ella was sitting on the bed lost in thought.
"Your injuries are healing well. In a few days, you'll be able to get out of bed, and I'll perform the first round of reconstructive surgery for you!"
Upon hearing the voice, Ella snapped back to reality.
When she saw the handsome and upright man in front of her, a sense of unfamiliarity crept into her eyes.
"So you are... Dr. Hawke?"
"That's right!"
Hawke stepped forward to inspect her wound, the healing progress was faster than he had imagined, truly living up to being a member of the Spirit Pavilion who grew up on the edge of a sword since childhood. However, the injuries were still too severe, especially being near the heart, it might be difficult to get out of bed in the short term. "At this time, you still need to lie down and rest more, but make sure to lie flat to avoid putting pressure on the wound and causing it to reopen and bleed again." After re-bandaging Ella, Hawke had no intention of leaving, he sat down and prepared to chat with her. Seeing Xavier in pain all this time, he became curious about this woman. What kind of remarkable woman could captivate the renowned Xavier, even to the point of risking his life for her. When Ella noticed him staring at her, she squinted her eyes and said, "I know I am ugly!" Uh... Dr. Hawke was at a loss for words. Most people would have been crying their hearts out in such a situation, but what about this woman in front of him?
Using an extremely calm tying, she asked him if he was very ugly? Is this a normal woman? "Don't worry, I have seen worse injuries than yours." As she said this, Hawke's gaze subconsciously looked outside, a black shadow quickly flashing by. No need to guess, he also knew who it was. Ella also noticed that the masked man was standing at the door just now. Hearing Hawke's words, a touch of coldness appeared in his eyes. "I heard that Dr. Hawke's medical skills are superb, known as the 'Magic Hands'. So, may I ask Dr. Hawke how long it will take to repair my face?" The matter of the underground maze has not been resolved, she simply does not have time to stay here to recover. Hawke touched his nose and coughed twice, "Let's not talk about your face for now, the injuries on your body are enough to rest for two to three months." The wound is in a very special position, with a slight deviation, it would definitely be fatal on the spot.
It's a miracle that she survived, yet she is calmly discussing facial reconstruction. Truly a woman worthy of Cloud Town, with such a cold and fierce personality! "Two to three months is too long. I'll be getting out of bed in no more than ten days," Ella said firmly. Everything is risking their lives for her, how can she justify staying here to recover? As for whether her face can be restored, she no longer cares. Without Cloud Town, even with a stunning appearance, it's not what she wants. "Ten days?" Hawke's whole head was throbbing. The young master needed a week to complete the clinical trial of the special medicine. Now, Cloud Town's woman wants him to get her out of bed in ten days?
He would be overwhelmed even if he had three heads and six arms.
He sighed deeply and said helplessly, "I'll do my best."
With that, Hawke did not stay any longer and quickly went to the laboratory to conduct clinical experiments. What if he couldn't complete the task in a week? Would the young master have to kill him?
...
Raven Pavilion.
Having rested a bit, Freya immediately joined Bradley and Gordon in the plan to stop Belle's conspiracy in the underground maze.
Belle was cultivating an army of dead soldiers in the underground maze. Not only that, she was also the ruler of the warlord family. If this person is not eliminated, it will surely bring disaster!
However, as soon as she arrived, Bradley sent her back to the room again.
With her current physical condition, she could no longer afford to take risks.
This time, no matter what, he would not allow her to go into danger again.
Gordon is proficient in chemical research and also has some knowledge of medicine. When he saw Freya's condition, he cut to the chase.
"She's been poinsoned!"
Bradley turned suddenly, furrowing his brows as he looked at him, "Do you understand poisons?"
"I have some knowledge."
Afterwards, he examined Freya's condition and said, "She has been poinsoned by the snake venom of the Warlord family, and the situation is not very optimistic."
Before being imprisoned in the underground maze, Gordon had investigated the Warlord family and was particularly interested in the poison on their hidden weapons. He had even taken risks by sneaking into their headquarters and almost lost his life.
Fortunately, he obtained a star-shaped hidden weapon and extracted the poison from it, and many years of research had yielded a number of findings.
"Is there a cure?" Bradley's voice trembled uncontrollably, as if a ray of light had shying into the dark world, reigniting his hope.
Gordon shook his head and said, "There is currently no cure."
"Let me tell you the truth," this kind of poison not only extracts the most intense venom from snakes, but also mixes in a new type of venom. When these two poisons collide, it creates the most toxic substance in the world. Coupled with the accumulation of poison in Freya's body for some time, she may have already been contaminated by this to Freya, which has triggered the spread of toxicity throughout her organs.
Upon hearing this, Bradley clenched his hands tightly on his legs, pain evident in his eyes. There is no cure...
Does he have to just watch Freya slowly drift away from him?
No! The man slammed his fist heavily against the wall. "No matter how difficult it is, I will not let her die!"
Gordon glanced at Freya, hesitated for a moment, took out a bottle from his body, and handed it to Bradley, saying, "Although there is currently no antidote available, I have some pills that can temporarily control the toxicity. You should feed them to her first."
After spending so many years in the underground maze, he was not idle. While cultivating vampire bats, he also studied the toxicity of snake venom. Originally, he did not want to reveal his research, but Freya was a friend of Ella's, and he could not stand by and watch her die!
