Ordinary fantasy adventure in Faerûn

Chapter 385 Heart Examination

"How do you feel now? Karak! Can you still control your heart now?!"

Karak, with his body on fire and sobbing in pain while holding his chest, nodded with difficulty, then took a few deep breaths and began to mobilize all his strength, trying his best to suppress his raging heart.

It was not until five or six minutes later that Karak finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Phew, this damn pile of scrap metal, I almost thought I was going to be melted."

Karak stood up rubbing her chest, with a grim expression on her face. The abnormal situation just now was really uncomfortable, but when she saw Noshil's serious face, she put on an expression as if nothing was wrong and spoke.

"Hey, don't be so sad, soldier. This little flame can't do anything to Karak. It was just an accident. I may have drunk too much water. The cold and hot after the battle stimulated my engine a little."

"Damn it, I always forget that I have come out of hell. I always can't help but relax in such a beautiful environment. You know, there is no such clean water to enjoy in hell..."

"No, Karak, I underestimated the lethality of your heart. I originally thought that the hidden danger of that thing would not erupt so quickly, but now it seems that your condition can no longer be delayed. Come with me, I want to study your heart carefully, and then try to solve this problem for you."

"Even if I can't solve it completely, I still have to insure your heart so that you don't suddenly turn into ashes in front of me one day, and I have to take the trouble to clean up the ashes."

Noshir's words made Karak smile.

"Ha! I am Karak! Demon Slayer! Champion Warrior! I won't die in such a ridiculous way. This little fire won't kill me in a short time."

Karak's words were very confident, but in reality, she was not sure she could withstand the backlash of this heart.

Noshier was right. The main material plane was indeed unable to keep this heart running smoothly. He was indeed right about that, but because of this, she realized the problem of her heart.

She was a little unsure whether Noshir could cure her.

"Don't be nervous, soldier. Even if you fail, this city is so big that there will always be someone who can solve my problem."

Noshir just shook his head, then waved to Karak and spoke as he walked.

"That's a very optimistic idea, Karak, but believe me, if even I in this city can't cure your heart, then you don't have to expect anyone else to."

Karak rubbed the engine on his chest and followed.

"I remember you said before that you only have a basic understanding of this kind of construction. Now from your tone, why are you suddenly so confident?"

Noshier didn't look back, but responded anyway.

"I do know only a little bit, but I also have my own special advantages. There are many masters of mechanical construction in this world who are stronger than me, but I can guarantee that even they can't see the details of your Hell Heart at a glance."

"Because this is a creation they have never seen before. Even if you show them a blueprint that records the entire process, it will take them a long time to study it thoroughly. But I am different. I have a unique talent. For this kind of mechanical construct, I can get all its information just by touching it. As long as I know how this heart works, I will have a way to control and improve it." Noshil's words were firm and full of confidence. Although Karak thought this was a bit far-fetched, she was persuaded to believe it under Noshil's firm tone.

"Wow~ You mean you were blessed by the God of Craftsmen? Or is this some kind of innate magical power?"

"I heard from other demons in hell that among the individuals of many races, some aliens occasionally appear naturally. These aliens are born with various magical abilities that are almost impossible to explain with common sense. Are you one of them?!"

"Maybe."

"Ha, now I'm really starting to expect you to heal me, but wait, what do you mean by reaching out and touching?"

"Well, you'll find out soon enough."

As the two talked, they came to an empty room inside the Supreme Hall. Noshir wanted to use this room to carefully examine the Hell Engine heart in Karak's chest.

Of course, it was called an inspection, but in fact it was just using the panel's capabilities to identify the true appearance of the heart.

Noshir looked at Karak lying on the bed. After a brief conversation, Noshir had convinced her to cooperate with him to complete this minor operation.

Originally, Noshir wanted to provide anesthesia, but Karak said that her body had developed resistance to most drugs, so he should just do it directly.

Nosher could only admire him and say what a real man he was, then he started the operation with great skill and courage.

Through the gap between the ribs that had been violently opened by Zariel, he used the sharp dagger that had been burned by flames to cut a small opening in Karak's chest. After that, he did not make any additional movements, but just touched it lightly with his hand, and immediately began to sew the muscles and skin.

This method of operation is actually very dangerous. Noshir only dared to do this because this is a magical world and he has plenty of advanced healing potions on him.

The high temperature of the heart itself made Karak almost fearless of any viral infection. Coupled with the subsequent abundant supply of therapeutic potions, Karak felt almost no discomfort after this minor operation.

"Great! It's been a long time since I've been cut open. It brings back memories of the dark days in the past. However, your post-operative treatment is much gentler than that bastard Zariel. If only Zariel could be as delicate as you when he performed the operation on me, but that monster only treated me as a machine."

Noshir was thinking about the heart data displayed on the panel and the strange injuries he saw during the operation, but he couldn't help but speak after hearing Karak's words.

"...From the operation just now, I can see that your chest cavity has suffered extraordinary damage. The blood in your body seems to have undergone some kind of mutation, turning into a special liquid that is completely different from normal biological fluids. I still find it hard to imagine how you survived her hands?"

"You have a strong ability to endure pain, there's nothing else to say."

"..."
