After the meeting, two official representatives left Roland, promising that the government would further promote more aid projects, including experimental data on the first generation of nuclear weapons, which is also being considered.

Of course, what makes them make such promises is not just a word of the Wudao Association, but the magical creations with magical effects are also important reasons why the government is so active.In short, as the Rock declares, this meeting is only the beginning.

In just a few days, the Grey Fort Design Bureau will fill the winter city because of its own strength to develop all the shortcomings left, each project has hundreds of people, even thousands of people to think, perfect, the battle of God is no longer the fate of a world, Roland for the first time deeply feel that the human beings in the world are not alone, behind him there is a force to support him, although the two worlds have never really touched, but the fate has been closely linked.

Taking advantage of this round of technological reform boom, the Roland Department of Administration has increased the recruitment of workers, and has planned more than a dozen new factories, from high-performance composite gunpowder to semi-automatic machine tools.After solving the constraints of population and economy, the winter city in the midst of the rapid rise has been fully able to build and develop itself according to his will, at least until the main contradiction of survival is eased, this momentum will not stop.

Just as the technological innovation was booming, Roland suddenly received an unexpected and surprising news.

Joan, who had been missing for almost a year, returned.

After receiving the news, he and the nightinge immediately rushed to the Winterless First Medical Hospital - since the decree of expanding the scale of public education and medical care in Wangdu last winter, the Executive Office has built three medical hospitals in the south bank of the Redwater River, the middle section of the Kingdom Avenue and the Changge Fortress, which is responsible for the simple diagnosis and epidemic prevention work in each district.The first to be transformed from the noble compound, known for Miss Nanawa's permanent residence in the city, naturally got the name of the "first hospital".

Walking into the ward, Camilla Darry bowed slightly to him.

Wendy and Tilly have returned to the front, the books are busy with the re-enactment of the information, and the Sleeping Island Butler takes it for granted the task of taking care of everyone.What's more, she had witnessed the disappearance of Joan, and her heart had always been guilty, and now the joy of recovery was stronger than anyone else, which could be seen from her initiative to salute herself.

After all, she always thought that she had "robbed" Tiley, but also the main reason for the sacrifice of the ashes, if not to get the information, the sky and sea may directly threaten the fjord and the sleeping island, she will not move to live in winter.

Roland did not care too much about this, waved his hand and whispered, "How is her situation?"

“I can only say... no problem.”

“Only?”Roland is confused.In his opinion, returning safely is already the best result.

"She's back to what she used to be."Camilla touched Joan’s hair and sighed softly.

It was not until after hearing her story that Roland finally understood what was meant in the other person's words.

Joan did not swim back to the shoal port by herself.

The first to find her was a winterless fisherman who lived on fishing.According to the man's report, when he went to the sea to fish, he was suddenly awakened by the sound of heavy objects from the stern of the boat at night, and then heard the sound of gnawing.Originally thought to be a sea ghost, is planning to die, did not expect to see a similar humanoid "big fish."

She was gnawing at the fish cooked in the pot for a while, as if she hadn’t eaten in days.Seeing the panicked fishermen did not attack, but made a few strange screams, and then curled up in the corner of the deck, as if they had slept.

Influenced by the long-term propaganda of Winterfell, the fishermen returned it to the port of shoal with a try-and-error mentality - the reward for saving a witch was much higher than that of a boat fish, and could only be a witch if it were not a sea ghost.

The “big fish” is Joan.

"Lily has examined her, there are multiple parasitic infections in her body, and some bugs are unable to eradicate it."Camilla heartache, "In order to eliminate the hidden danger as soon as possible, I poured her sleeping fern into the sleeping fern, and then razed those worms embedded under the skin with a knife."In theory, these insects will only appear on older ships and whales.”

“That is to say, Joan did not swim back from the Shadow Islands?”

"That distance will not stain them," she shook her head, "and at the speed of Joan, it won't take so long to return from the ruins to Winterfell."My fear is ... what terrible things happened to her that led to a return to the past.”

Not being able to clean up the parasite, hungry to go to the boat to find food, tired to the near-coma, all indicate that this journey is full of danger, long-term excessive stress and stimulation, the witch is likely to be irreparable psychological trauma, Maisie is a typical example.

Camilla has the ability to communicate with the soul, and is not afraid that the other party will not speak, she is really worried that Joan will never recover as before, and will only spend the rest of her life like an animal in the future.

Roland couldn't stop it.

Indeed, the body is not safe, whether it is Nanawa's medical bandage or Lily's purified water, can not cure the psychological block.

Suddenly, a rhythmic knock broke the silence inside the house.

The Nightingale returned somewhat doubtfully to open the door, and saw that the head of the mysterious moon came half out of the door.

“Did you hear that Joan was back?”Wait, hey, don't squeeze me—"

The door was suddenly pushed open, and several people stumbled into the house, and in addition to the mystery moon, there was Asha, Sharon and Amy.At the end of the day, it was Lily.

"No way, she found out."Lily is helpless.

“Cough!First of all, I declare that I only heard that Joan was sick and came to visit her!”Mystery Moon firmly said, "Although she belongs to the expedition group, but the lightning and Maisie are not there, and only we can accompany her, not to take the opportunity to pull her into the detective team, let alone - don't -"

Asha had reached out and covered her mouth.

"It's just her personal delusion, it has nothing to do with everybody."Sheron's face is right.

“Isn’t it good to have one more member?”Amy touched her head in amazement.

“Shhh!”Lily made a silent gesture.

Looking at a group of people in the intrusion, Roland couldn't help but smile.He looked at Camilla Darry and shrugged.The latter was slightly surprised, and then the expression relaxed a lot.

Perhaps Joan did encounter something terrible, but there was such a group of people, he believed that the other side would be able to return to the original right track sooner or later.

...

“Hey, look what this is?”

“It looks like a satin...”

Why is there satin in the hospital?And the texture is very high-end."

"Ask Aunt Camilla."

“Why don’t you ask?”

"I dare not."

I heard it all.Camilla, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, said, "That's the fabric that Joan used to tie the wound, because it wasn't all thrown away when she was busy."Beware of the bacteria attached to it, and your majesty's book says, don't touch the possible source of infection at will?"

After Roland and the Nightingale left, she and the members of the detective team were left in the ward.The latter surrounded the bed before and after, a day also helped a lot.It was certainly a good thing for Joan to have such a group of ardent friends, the only problem was that they were a little more.

“Is there a disease on it?“Lily, can you feel it?”

“Take it from me, in front of me!”

“Hey, don’t tear it.What is it?It can't be broken. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

“It’s hard to break...Asha is coming to try it too?”

No, she corrected, these guys are not a little more, it is too much!Just as Camilla was about to let them return to the castle on the grounds that "it's not too early today, tomorrow will come back", Joan's eyelids suddenly shook.

She held her breath.

After a few seconds, the girl who had been sleeping slowly opened her eyes.

“Shut up—”

Joan spoke up and made a weak cry.

This makes the room quiet for an instant.

She certainly can't talk...

Camilla held back the deplorable emotion and put her hand on Joan's chest.

In an instant, countless fragments of consciousness poured into her mind like a tide!From the moment she asked the question, she would be answered immediately, which is the spiritual resonance!

She saw herself infinitely elongated on the dark sea, like a twisted illusion.

She saw the sky and the sea upside down, and the sea pouring down from the air.

She saw the black pressed rib monster all over the sea, forming a wave after wave of whistles and launching a charge to the mainland.

She saw the stone tablets standing in the middle of the mist, and the white-clad women coming towards her.

In the end, it was a large, unmistakable circular hole.
