Chapter 1760 Three Winged Angel Dungeon -Part 28
As two weeks passed, Jin finally got through the critical phases and he was able to at least do basic functions without any pain running around his entire body. Or perhaps, he already withstood the pain, no one knew as he kept as stoic as ever when it came to his wounds. At the very least, he started to sit in his cultivation stance and attempted to circulate his Maqi.
Once Lynn knew that he was able to be in a cultivation stance, she would company him on an hourly basis to make sure that his Maqi could regulate properly. In addition to that, she would also try to make sure his Maqi was stable.
She was not sure if it was due to the pain or not but his Maqi generation came in bursts and that would surely break the delicate subcircuits that had been formed. So Lynn had to aid Jin to ensure those subcircuits would be maintained and the worms in him did not bother repairing those. In addition, with the increase of Maqi running around his body, he was also able to heal a little faster.
For the fact that Lynn was a Mechanoid, she was also able to consistently push out Maqi at a regular pace without breaking concentration because of the automation that was happening within her. And she did not get tired since she was connected to an electrical plug, providing her with the energy needed to stay alive. This conversion of energy allowed Lynn to shorten the healing process by three days according to the System's analysis.
So, by the end of the third week, Jin was able to move properly with little to no pain. The worms were still moving around as if to inspect for any more damages that could happen but other than that, Jin was somewhat combat ready.
"Such a pity, I did not increase my grade," Jin said as he tried to release a punch out and the strength was still the same as ever.
"If there is an increase in grade, do not release it here. You could have blown the metal door away and Old Flammet would whoop your ass." Lynn said as she finally could take a burden off her shoulder and heart.
"How is the old guy?"
"He cried for some time before going to the toilet to wash off his face and started working on the Diaz's upgrades. Nie went to collect Gerrad's body and gave a proper barrier at the top of Mount Sunn. As usual, Old Flammet said that was unnecessary but Nie whispered to me that there were half empty bottles of good wine at Gerrad's graveyard early in the morning."
"If that is his way to clear grief then, we should let him deal with it as such," Jin said as he opened his arms towards Lynn.
"What? Why are you doing this? I am not going to hug you after all that sweat on your body."
"Then we could bath together!" Jin said and Lynn spit her tongue out. "Blek! This body is not for you to touch. You want it, get back to the real world!" She said and immediately closed his bathroom door and used the showers.
"Oh, if you come in, I am going to blast you out of it." Lynn shouted as she turned on the water facet. "And no I am not joking. I am being serious. Go change your bedsheet with the Mechanoids outside. They should have a new set."
"Geez, Jin sulked a little as he did what Lynn had told him but as he got out of the room, he saw the Grey Bears were playing a game of cards.
"Commander, you are finally out." Tellie was the first to see and the rest came out of their seats and quickly formed a line while performing a proper salute.
"At ease. Thank you. Sorry for the long wait." Jin said.
"We had to be under Old Flamet's bidding for the past few weeks. It was horrid." Diaz said and Click shook her head.
"What's horrid was that Diaz's upgrade."
"Let me guess, is it those stoney hands." And the entire squad nodded their heads. "Keep your hands to yourself Diaz unless it's combat or to rescue someone. That is an order." Jin said and Diaz reluctantly replied with a Sir, Yes, Sir.
"So are we going to the Three Winged Angel Dungeon, right now?" Yinn asked and Jin shook his head.
"I got to change the bedsheets first…and shower. Lynn said I stink." And everyone readily agreed with that opinion. "After that, check up on Old Flammet and Nie. You guys go slowly load up your combat gear…after your game is over." Jin said as Click was still holding onto her cards in her hand.
"Thank you, commander!" They said and they quickly returned to the table to finish their game while Jin changed the bedsheets. The System did a routine check and also agreed with the health check assessment that he was able to move out without any problem.
"If the Three Winged Angel asks for a fight, the System would recommend postponing the fight if possible. While you have fully recovered, it does not mean your bones, muscles, and organs are ready to take another beating this quickly."
"And also, eat something." Lynn came out of the shower and interrupted the conversation between the System and Jin. "I will go prepare some snacks for you to munch when you walk into the dungeon. Otherwise, I too would not let you go"
"I… Understand. Will follow your instructions."? Jin nodded his head and did what he needed to do. When he was showering, he noticed there were scars all over his body and they were not the wounds he remember ever having. Later, the System told him that those were leftover scars from the deconstruction and reconstruction.
"Damn. Then I guess, I have to wait for time to cover them all." He said to himself as he started to turn the water facet to wash away the stench and sweat.
