Survival: My companion is not serious

At this moment, Shizuka Tachibana, who still didn't understand the characteristics of the NPC girl, fell into deep self-doubt.

"Okay, forget about her. Let's go see your student first. He's almost dying, isn't he?" Xia Ke's urging voice woke her up.

"Oh, oh yes!" Shizuka Tachibana was awakened and then she remembered the important business. She quickly changed the food, water and medicine, and pulled Shaq out.

However, after walking out of the store, the sight of the snow that was already higher than her head made her look bitter.

Still want to 'swim' back?!

Thinking of the scene of herself struggling to "swim" through the snow and the biting feeling, Shizuka Tachibana subconsciously tightened the quilt around herself and turned to look at Shaq in confusion and helplessness.

"Point me in a direction."

Xia Ke understood what the other person meant in seconds. Amid the other person's exclamation, he hugged the other person like a princess, then walked onto the snow very easily and got on the snowmobile.

"Over there." Shizuka Tachibana asked curiously how Xia Ke walked steadily on the snow. After simply identifying the direction, he pointed directly to the two-story building where she and Busujima Yako were.

Xia Ke did not hesitate. He stepped on the accelerator and headed straight towards the direction of Dudao Yazi amid the roar of the engine.

It took only two minutes to reach the destination, and then Shizuka Tachibana followed Shizuka Tachibana, who was wrapped in a quilt, into the room through the window.

Well, how should I put it, the environment is terrible.

Everything was charred black, like a fire scene.

It is obvious that yesterday, Busujima Yaji and Tachibana Shizuka were able to defeat the snowman by burning the house.

Busujima Yako was in the inner room, which was not affected by the fire. At this moment, Busujima Yako was lying on a tattered bed with a very ugly look on his face, covered with layer upon layer of rags that he found out from nowhere. Shizuka Tachibana, regardless of her own coldness, quickly covered herself with the quilt that was originally wrapped around her, and then began to look through the medicines and medical equipment she had bought.

At this moment, Xia Ke also began to look at Dudao Yazi lying on the bed. Her originally smooth purple hair now had some signs of burning, and some signs of frostbite and burns could be clearly seen on her cold and beautiful face.

However, from the slightly rising and falling chest, it could be seen that the other party was not dead.

Xia Ke quickly stepped forward and touched the other person's cheek.

It's very hot. I have a fever.

Then Xia Ke reached into the clothes and found the other person's hand and held it.

It was very cold, as if I was frozen.

Feverish and cold, Shizuka Tachibana's description was not wrong.

But why does this happen, no one knows?

But what Xia Ke knows now is that if he wants to save the other person, he needs to replenish the other person's calories immediately.

Xia Ke directly lifted the quilt, and while Shizuka Tachibana was screaming in confusion, he tore all the clothes on her body, leaving nothing behind.

The originally snow-white and healthy body was now covered with signs of frostbite.

Without any hesitation, Shak's spiritual power directly covered the opponent's entire body.

Psychic flame, ignite it for me!

Chapter 45: Playing Hard to Get

The raging and hot psychic flames continued to burn on Busujima Yajima's body, which made Tachibana Shizuka, who was originally worried and anxious, be pushed back a few steps by the heat wave and stare at the supernatural scene in front of her in amazement.

However, before she could react and pounce on him, Shaq took the lead in explaining.

"Don't worry, your student is not dead yet. She just lost too much energy to the snowman, so she needs a lot of energy now. You don't have to worry about me burning her to ashes. I have protected her with psychic energy in advance."

"Oh, so that's how it is." Although Xia Ke didn't understand a lot of what he said, since the other party had said that everything was fine, then everything must be fine.

The blazing flames did look intimidating, but after a closer look, Shizuka Tachibana discovered that there did not seem to be any damage to the skin, and the other party's expression of pain slowly relaxed. She was not a thick-skinned girl and did not pursue the matter further. Instead, she felt at ease and circled around the psychic flame, warming herself by the fire like a curious baby.

"It's amazing that you can release fire!"

"I can also release lightning." Shak maintained the continuous burning of the psychic flame with one hand, while a golden arc of electricity lit up on the other hand, constantly making crackling sounds.

"Oh, so beautiful, is it a superpower? Or magic?" After being temporarily relieved of the crisis, Shizuka Tachibana immediately regained her previous personality like a naive child.

"In a sense, it can also be considered a kind of magic." After thinking for a while, Shak gave the other party a vague answer.

He did not say that he wanted to hide the fact that Shizuka Tachibana had superpowers from her, because judging from the current situation, it was a foregone conclusion that Shizuka Tachibana would join his camp. Although he could not say that he had to open his heart to her, he could still tell her some basic things.

At the very least, he would have to face the snowman tonight, and the secret of the psychic flame's explosive expressiveness could no longer be concealed.

Or maybe Shak simply didn't care whether his abilities were exposed or not. After all, the trump card he currently relied on was never the means of attack using psychic power, but the technology tree from zero to the overlord of the universe that was engraved in his DNA.

With the support of the 'Waaaaa' energy, as time goes by and his psychic power continues to increase, he can completely build a space battleship with a pile of junk.

Although it's useless.

"Oh, is that so? Then can I learn it?!" Shizuka Tachibana was not polite and looked at Shaq with an innocent look.

"I don't think so. This is a racial talent and you can't learn it by attacking." Shak refused without hesitation.

However, he did not say it so confidently. After all, psychic talents also exist among humans, and he did not have the means to induce and detect psychic powers, so he could not guarantee whether Shizuka Tachibana had the qualifications.

"Is that so? That's such a pity." Shizuka Tachibana looked disappointed.

"Maybe there is a chance... Okay, that's enough, just keep warm from now on." Xia Ke saw that the calories were almost replenished and Dudao Yazi's complexion had almost recovered, so Xia Ke directly dispersed the psychic flame.

This is a very magical thing to say. The heat taken away by the snowman will not cause frostbite in the traditional sense.

Frostbite in the traditional sense is caused by the flesh being exposed to cold. The tissue fluid of the cells expands due to the cold and punctures the cell walls, causing necrosis of the cell tissue. Even if heat is replenished afterwards, the dead cells will not revive and can only slowly wait for the cells to divide and recombine to recover from the injury.

The snowman, as a symbol of warmth, is very abstract.

It simply robs you of your temperature, making you feel very cold, and it will indeed cause frostbite at the attacked site, but it does not physically destroy and kill cells. Instead, it is more like giving you a DBUFF that restricts your movements and causes you to lose blood continuously for a certain period of time.

As long as you replenish calories, or keep using blood bottles to endure the duration, the frostbite and hypothermia can be recovered.

Xia Ke didn't understand the reason, but he didn't want to delve into it. He was not a scientist pursuing the truth. For a thing, he only needed to know the solution and whether he could solve it himself.

After using his psychic power to cover the white and healthy body of Busujima Yajima whose clothes had been torn by him with the quilt that had just been lifted aside and was now warmed by the psychic flames, Shak turned his head and looked at the confused Tachibana Shizuka.

"So, Ms. Shizuka Tachibana, although your student's body is no longer charged with heat, she still has a lot of frostbite and burns. I believe you have just bought relevant medicines, and you also said that you are a school doctor, so professional matters should be left to professionals." As he said that, Xia Ke clapped his hands.

"Well, leave it to me."

Shizuka Tachibana nodded confidently, took out the frostbite and burn ointment and gauze she had prepared long ago, lifted a corner of the quilt, and began to apply medicine to Busujima Yako.

"Okay, then we'll meet again if we're lucky. I hope the next time we meet you'll invite us to your manor camp for tea or dinner or something." With that, Xia Ke turned around and prepared to leave.

Shizuka Tachibana '??? ?! '

"What! You want to leave?!"

Shizuka Tachibana's reaction did not surprise Xia Ke. Looking at the panicked Shizuka Tachibana, Xia Ke knew that his strategy of playing hard to get was half successful.

"Of course. After all, I came here to replenish supplies to fight the snowmen. Saving you is just a side job." Xia Ke said as a matter of course.

Although inviting her now would certainly make Shizuka Tachibana agree to go with him, that would be a bit passive.

Actively inviting others to join and others actively requesting to join are two different concepts.

"Well, I wonder if you can let us stay in your camp for a while." Perhaps knowing that her request was a little unreasonable, Shizuka Tachibana spoke in a low voice, lacking confidence, "No, but we won't stay here for free. I, we can also provide help and value!"

"Ah, but we don't need any help..." Xia Ke pretended to be embarrassed and hesitant.

"I, I'm a doctor, I can treat illnesses, and Busujima is also very good at kendo, I can help you fight the enemy!" Seeing Shak's expression, Shizuka Tachibana panicked instantly. She was so anxious to prove her worth that she spent all her money anxiously.

You can provide value, but not the kind you imagine.

Xia Ke looked the other person up and down, evaluating him secretly in his heart.

PS: I’m very busy on duty today, I’ll try to write a few more chapters.

Chapter 46 Taking a Bath

Cold, shaking, hard, roaring...

When Busujima regained consciousness, his head was dizzy and his body felt hot and heavy. At the same time, there was a constant whistling of wind in his ears and a huge and noisy engine sound was constantly ringing in front of him.

Dokujima Yazi realized that he had a fever. At the same time, he also felt that he was naked and wrapped in something. From the feeling, it seemed that the thing wrapped around him was firmly tied up with several ropes to ensure that the thing would not fall apart and roll around.

'Am I saved?'

This is what Busujima thought.

But no one answered her question. Although she was now fixed in a supine position, she could only see the blue sky and the occasional flash of branches dyed white by the snow.

Raising his head slightly, Dudao Yazi found that he seemed to be in a hanging warehouse similar to a small boat, and he was surrounded by clothes and warm things.

Dudao Yazi could clearly feel that behind the hanging warehouse where he was, there were still two functional hanging warehouses, and they were loaded with heavy cargo.

"Oh, it seems you're awake." Just when Busujima Yaji was wondering about his current situation, a dull but somewhat familiar voice suddenly came from the front.

However, before she could open her mouth in confusion, the voice spoke again, "Okay, now that you're awake, just continue sleeping. We're still a little way to the campsite... Shizuka, don't move. Just keep going at this rate!"

"Well, but, but, I can't help it, I went in again~"

"Thank you."

Although he didn't know what had happened, and he seemed to hear some strange voices that sounded like those of Mr. Tachibana, the continued high fever and exhausted body still made Busujima Yajima unable to bear the burden and fell asleep again.

Just when she fell asleep, she didn't know if it was an illusion, but she seemed to feel that the vehicle dragging her was moving faster.

..............................

Thanks to the help of Shizuka Tachibana, Shak did not consume much spiritual energy on the way back, and returned to the camp with high spiritual energy all the way.

"Ah, dear, you are back. Did you have a smooth journey?"

When Celestine saw Shaq coming back, she was sitting next to the truck, wrapped in a quilt and warming herself by the fire, glancing at the door from time to time because Shaq had dismantled the engine of the truck. She breathed a sigh of relief and immediately went to greet him happily.

"Well, everything went well. I think I can build two melta guns before dark." Shak rolled over and got off the snowmobile.

"Oh, that's good... My dear, this is in your arms..." After hearing the news, Celestine, who understood what the melta weapon represented, also showed a happy smile on her face.

But when Celestine saw Shaq getting off the snowmobile wrapped in a blanket with a bulge in front of him, which kept squirming from time to time, she couldn't help but feel curious.

"Ah, this."

Xia Ke just loosened his grip a little bit, and a head full of golden hair came out along with a lot of enthusiasm, along with a familiar, delicate and flushed face.

"…………"

Xia Ke didn't say much, nor was he shy or guilty, he just gave the other person a look that said "I understand."

And after being stunned for a moment, Celestine just put her hand on her forehead and sighed softly, as if saying "I knew it would be like this."

"So, this is my new sister in the future?" Celestine, who understood what happened, walked to Shizuka Tachibana with a strange look on her face.

"Ears, ears, ears..."

Even though Shizuka Tachibana was already unconscious at the moment, and had sunk completely into the ocean of desire, but after seeing what happened to Celestine, her originally cloudy and blurred eyes became slightly clearer, and she struggled to reach her hand out from the warm quilt and reached for Celestine's ear.

"…………"

Celestine's mouth twitched slightly, and she subconsciously took two steps back.

After seeing that she had no hope anymore, Shizuka Tachibana-kawa also showed a look of extreme loss.

"Inexplicable obsession and interest..."

Celestine commented.

"Hahaha, people's physiques are different." Xia Ke laughed indifferently.

"So, Shizuka has temporarily joined our camp. As for this Busujima boy, we may need to wait until he wakes up to listen to his opinions."

Shaq now briefly introduced Celestine to Shizuka Tachibana, who had a blushing face and a messed-up expression.

"Well, I know. I will get along well with Miss Tachibana Shizuka. You don't have to worry about that, dear."

Because she was familiar with the characteristics of Shak's abilities, Celestine did not condemn or express any dissatisfaction with Shak's behavior.

On the contrary, she was even secretly relieved and secretly happy about the joining of Shizuka Tachibana.

It seemed like the solution was very simple last night, but in fact, only I know the difficulty involved.

Especially last night when I was stimulating Shak to replenish his spiritual energy, although it was no different from usual.

But Celestine felt that Shak was always in a delicate state of expenditure not making enough money, as if his spiritual energy would be squandered immediately if he relaxed.

I also don't know what's wrong. I don't know if it's because my endurance has decreased, or my physical sensitivity has increased. In short, it is becoming easier and easier for me to get pleasure, and the duration is getting longer and longer.

This is indeed a good thing, but if you get continuous and cumulative pleasure in a short period of time, it will put a heavy burden on your soul and spirit.

I really need companions to share the pressure so that I can have the time and energy to slowly enjoy the ultimate pleasure of digestion.
