Chapter 837 Doubts
Leading more than 2,000 Golden Shield Clan prisoners outside the city, Gervis and a group of sea creatures entered Sheng'en City directly from the main gate.
"Father, how about receiving the prisoners on the city wall?"
When he arrived in the city, Gervis saw that soldiers from the Golden Shield family were being taken down from the city wall with their hands tied with mithril ropes, while Gandalf was standing at the entrance of the city wall with his hand on his long sword, watching the prisoners' every move with awe.
"It went very smoothly, Gervis! When they saw that Batman had escaped, they lost their will to fight. And the terrifying attack you just made also frightened them. Now they are all very obedient!"
Upon hearing Gervis' question, Gandalf's expression immediately changed, from murderous to delighted.
"That's good! Then father, I'll leave the things here to you! I'll go back and rest for a while!"
When Gervis saw that everything was back to normal, he felt overwhelmed.
Although the blood on his back had stopped flowing, he was still a little tired after the fierce battle.
"Grevith, are you okay?"
Gandalf then realized that although he was not injured today, his youngest son was no match for those small fry. He immediately asked the dusty Gerveth with concern.
"Father, I'm fine, just a little tired!"
The injury was not life-threatening, and in order to avoid Gandalf worrying, Gervis simply waved his hand.
Then, he paused and continued.
"Father, please send a few swift dragon birds to fly eastward now. The team from Sky City should be not far from us. If they reach Sheng'en City, please send someone to notify me!"
"Okay, Gervis, then you should have a good rest first! Your father will watch over you here!"
Seeing that Gervis seemed to be indifferent, Gandalf did not ask any further questions.
…
After speaking to Gandalf, Gervase headed towards the cottage where he stayed last night.
On the way, he randomly found a member of the medical team and asked her to notify Lilia, the captain of the medical team, to come and find him, and then Gervis returned to the cabin.
After returning to the cabin, he asked someone to boil some hot water to wash himself clean, and then lay down on the bed.
Boom boom!
"His Majesty!"
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in!"
Gervis ordered.
"His Majesty!"
Lilia opened the door and came to Gervis' bed obediently.
"No need for so much etiquette, come and help me heal!"
Gervis was lying straight on the bed, wearing only an undershirt. He waved to the half-kneeling Lilia and called her over.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Lilia didn't hesitate and quickly came to Gervis.
"Your Majesty, where are you injured? Lilia will heal you now!"
"Back!"
Gervais raised his hand and pointed to his back.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Although she saw that Gervis was in good condition at this time, Lilia still took action immediately.
He immediately and carefully lifted the underwear on Gervis' back.
"Ah! Your Majesty, you..."
The next moment, Lilia was stunned! She had been the captain of the medical team for more than a year and had treated many seriously injured soldiers.
However, it was the first time I had seen someone with dozens of densely packed crisscrossing cuts on his back like Gervis.
Lilia's eyes immediately turned red.
It can be said that their second life was given by Gervis, and the one they admire most in their hearts is His Majesty.
But now Your Majesty has suffered such an injury, how painful it must be.
"It's ok Lilia! It's just a minor injury!"
Seeing his medical team leader about to cry, Gervis felt helpless.
If these injuries did not affect his movements, he would not have announced them.
After all, Gervis felt that his character should be a wise, brave, and invincible king.
"Yes, Your Majesty! Lilia will heal you now!"
When Lilia heard this, she immediately reacted. She didn't dare to delay any longer and replied with a nasal voice, and then began to chant magic! "Elementary Healing Technique!"
As Lilia finished her chant, a green light instantly appeared in front of her and lingered on Gervis' wound.
And Gervis immediately felt a cool and refreshing feeling on his back.
"Primary healing technique!"
After the first healing spell was cast, Gervis's wounds were healing visibly.
But Lilia did not stop and continued to cast the second healing spell! "Primary healing spell!"
Then came the third, the fourth...
"Okay, Lilia!"
When Lilia was about to cast the fifth healing spell, Gervis immediately raised his hand to stop her.
Because at this time, Gervis could feel that his back injury had basically recovered.
"But, Your Majesty, your wound still has red marks!"
"Alright! Listen to me!"
Seeing Lilia's already pale face, Gervisyan deliberately put on a stern face to stop her.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Seeing Gervis' serious expression, Lilia didn't dare to say anything more and immediately responded in a low voice.
"That's good! By the way, Lilia, today's matter is a secret between you and me, don't tell anyone!"
Seeing Lilia's agreement, Gervis smiled again and joked to her.
"Yes...Yes, Your Majesty!"
Obviously, with Gervis's current status, a casual flirt with Lilia would carry a lot of weight, and Lilia immediately blushed and stammered.
"Very good, then go and get busy! There should be many injured in today's battle, you must do your best to treat them."
Gervis didn't dare to go too far, and after seeing Lilia's reaction, he immediately changed the subject.
"Yes, Your Majesty! Lilia will go now!"
Lilia, who was originally shy, became a little serious after hearing what Gervis said.
Although the Golden Shield Family suffered a great defeat today, many people on Gervis' side were injured, and they really needed her as the captain of the medical team.
"Well, go ahead!"
Then, Lilia excused herself and left the room.
…
Gervis continued to lie in the hut for more than half an hour before there was another knock on the door. It was Edward and others who had arrived in Saint Grace City.
"It's a little further than I expected! Fortunately, today's system is powerful!"
While putting on his clothes and armor, Gervis recalled the reasons why he was able to turn defeat into victory today.
The system used some strange power and relied on the aura that Goddess Angelina had left on it to directly lock onto her.
Then he made her sign a power-sharing contract with him.
Under this contract, Gervis can fight with half of Angelina's strength.
Of course, this borrowed power currently has a disadvantage, that is, the farther he is from the goddess, the weaker this power will be.
If Goddess Angelina could be by Gervis' side today, Gervis would be sure that Batman would not be able to escape.
Of course, Gervis was not curious about shared power, after all, the literal meaning was clear.
What Gervis was really curious about was why the system could force the goddess to sign such an obviously unequal and oppressive contract.
Gervis speculated that there were only two reasons for this.
One is that Goddess Angelina is too weak now and cannot resist the oppression of the system.
The second is that no matter how strong or weak Angelina is, the power of the system may be higher than that of the goddess, so the goddess surrendered.
Of course, the reason why the system helped Gervis complete the contract of sharing power was that it consumed 1,500 of his energy points.
If Gervis only has 15 energy points today, then he will probably just have to wait for death today! (End of this chapter)
