Time flies, spring goes and autumn comes, and the annual rings of time repeat themselves in the changing seasons, going through 20 reincarnations.

Balon has already entered his old age. As he continues to grow older, he has gradually contracted diseases that are inevitable for the elderly in recent years. At the beginning, he refused to accept old age and insisted on going out for a walk every day. In his spare time, he was even younger.

Have a few drinks and get yourself drunk.

However, as long as you are a mortal, you cannot resist birth, aging, illness and death. Since last year, Balon has been so ill that it is difficult to get out of bed. No medicine can control his condition. In the past 20 years, he has begun to approach the end of his life.

At this time, Balon lay dying on the bed, with the cat he had raised since childhood lying on his chest. In terms of the lifespan of a cat, it is considered to be very long-lived, but now it is as old as its owner and has a whisker.

All are gray.

In a daze, Balon heard something. He opened his eyes with difficulty, looked at the person walking next to him, smiled bitterly and sighed: "God...who are you...why are you talking to 20

It's exactly the same as it was before, nothing has changed..."

Kino stood beside Balon's bed. The 20 years have not left any trace on his appearance. The reason is very simple. As a rejecter, he has experienced various strengthenings. He is no longer a mortal, even just like this.

If he lives for another hundred or thousand years, his appearance will not age at all. Even he himself does not know where the end of his life is... It is even possible that even the law of "natural death" that applies to all things will no longer apply to him.

Effective again.

Chino looked at Baron silently and said: "A total of 285 simulated surgeries were performed this year, and they were all successful. I think they are almost there."

Balon looked into Kino's eyes, a deep look appeared in his pupils: "In the past twenty years, you have not spoken to anyone except me, and you have been practicing surgery every day... That person must be very important to you.

It is extremely important and can keep you going for twenty years."

"It's just that I can't imagine it. How could that person wait for you for 20 years? Could it be that she was frozen in a freezer?"

Kino: "You can't imagine it, and you don't have to imagine it. It's time for me to go."

Balon watched Kino's leaving back and said quietly: "You are not from our world, are you?"

Kino stopped in his tracks, looked sideways at Baron, his pupils slightly dilated: "Why do you say that?"

Baron smiled slightly, his voice lost, "It's just an intuition. The temperament you show is completely incompatible with this impetuous world. You don't care about birth, old age, illness and death, or the passage of time. You seem to hold time in your hands, like a god."

Kino did not speak, but looked sideways at Baron. There was only the sound of the crackling fire in the room.

Balon stroked the old cat lying on his chest and said in a sad voice: "After you leave this time, we should say goodbye forever... No matter you really come from a world that I can't imagine, or you really belong to this

World, I don’t have a few days left to live... It’s ridiculous to say that we have lived here together for 20 years, and I usually call you “Hey” or “Who is that”, and I don’t even know your name.

..”

Kino opened the door, and the winter wind and snow rushed towards his face. He stood in the cold wind for a long time and said slowly: "Kino."

"Kino van Helsing."

...

The 20 years in his previous life have almost exhausted all the awe points Kino has accumulated so far. When he returned to the main world from the previous life, the endless white frost around him melted instantly, and the frozen time returned to its eternal state.

flow rate.

Kino spent 20 years in his previous life, but to the main world where time is frozen, Kino has never left at all, and those long years are just a blink of an eye.

Lorna was still kneeling on the ground helpless and crying. Kino grabbed her back and threw her onto the dragon's back, saying, "Follow me."

After Kino finished speaking, he carried Solandel and flew south. Lorna quickly wiped away her tears and followed behind on Feiye.

Balon has already judged that Solandel's injury can only last for 12 hours at most, and the entire operation will take almost that long, which means that it is impossible for Kino to transfer Solandel back to the interior.

Find a suitable terrain nearby, open an independent space, and perform surgery on her directly inside.

During Kino's surgical practice in his previous life, he was in a state of absolute concentration throughout the entire process without any external interference. The same is true now when he actually performs surgery. He must have no distracting thoughts and cannot be disturbed at all, otherwise all his previous efforts will be wasted.

Now the remnants of the Six Kings are chasing closely, and they cannot get too far apart in a short period of time. The only person they can count on is Lorna, and she must be allowed to block the attack of the tribal warriors for at least 12 hours.

Kino landed on a high mountain. This place is called "Dawn Peak". The terrain is steep. The top is almost full of vertical cliffs. It is frozen by the frost and cannot be climbed. There is only a trail that can be used by two or three people at the same time.

Mountain top.

This is definitely not the best place to garrison, but unfortunately time is too short and we can't afford to delay, so we can only choose this place.

Kino no longer wanted to avoid suspicion and opened the independent space directly in front of Lorna.

Lorna looked at the entrance to the independent space that suddenly appeared. Because she had never seen it before, she was stunned for a moment: "Chino...this is?"

Kino did not explain, but just warned: "I am going in to perform surgery on Solandel now, remember every word I say below -"

"I need 12 hours. During the operation, I must remain absolutely focused and not be disturbed by anything. Therefore, you must guard the pass and not let any enemy come over, not even one. As long as an enemy rushes in and interferes,

Both me and Solandel will die immediately, do you understand?"

"Twelve hours...can't let an enemy pass..." Lorna muttered, looking a little dazed, and muttered, "But what if..."

"No if." Kino interrupted Lorna directly, "No, if."

Lorna gradually came back to her senses. She looked at Solandel in Kino's arms, her eyes became determined and firm, and she nodded heavily: "You go in, don't worry about the outside, leave this place to me."

"12 hours, it's evening now, hold on until tomorrow's dawn." Kino left the last words and took Solandel into the independent space.

Lorna took Fei Ye to the trail pass. From here, she could have a panoramic view of the scene below the mountain.

The tribal warriors had locked onto the flight tracks of Kino and Lorna early on, and had already chased them here. Everywhere they looked, saber-toothed tiger flags were surging, and an overwhelming sea of ​​people were ascending the mountain road, rushing towards the mountain like angry beasts.

Even though she had been mentally prepared, an army of this size still frightened Lorna. She took off the Blood Oath from her back and held it tightly in her hands, saying in a low voice: "Feiye, we have to hold on, even if it means death...
