Chapter 852 – Breaking the Seal with Battle
Lin Qiye clearly remembered that the last time he saw Sun Wukong’s healing progress, it was still only 23%, and how long had it been since then that it had already increased to 40%?
This speed was too fast!
The most crucial thing was that aside from providing him with fruit wine on a daily basis, Lin Qiye hadn’t healed Sun Wukong at all ah!
Can this still heal itself?
Lin Qiye suspiciously looked at the duo fighting on the field, and after hesitating for a moment, he patted Li Yifei by his side.
”What for?” Li Yifei was bewildered.
”Move a pony for me as well.”
”…… Wait.”
In a short while, Li Yifei carried a new matzah and handed it over to Lin Qiye, while the latter sat next to the courtyard with Li Yifei, Bragi, and Mei Lin, watching the battle between the two men attentively.
As the sky brightened, the two men’s battle also reached a white-hot stage, they both seemed to no longer be satisfied with fighting between fists and feet, their gazes became more and more intense.
Jimei Garsh reached out and clenched his hand in the void, and a long sword with a golden aura fell into his hand, while on the opposite side, Sun Wukong’s gaze was slightly condensed, and he reached out and pulled out his hand behind his ear, and an incomparably heavy long stick appeared out of thin air.
Merlin’s agreement with the two men did not restrict their use of weapons, as long as they staggered around the time when others were napping and resting, fighting with blades would at most be a bit more noisy, and the impact would not be great.
Holding their respective weapons, the two of them simultaneously rushed towards the center from both sides of the courtyard, and without using any divine power or divine ruins, they were still so fast that the naked eye couldn’t even catch them easily.
Boom-!
The golden longsword and the golden hoop stick collided together, emitting a buzzing sound as a gust of air waves spread out with them at the center.
”Monkey has the advantage again …… now the score is 74 to 72,” Bragi who was playing the harp kept his eyes on the duo at all times, giving Lin Qiye and Li Yifei a constant report of the battle, after all, with their eyesight, they might not be able to perfectly capture all of the battle’s After all, with their eyesight, they might not be able to perfectly capture all the details of the battle.
Time passed by, and the sun had already reached the upper part of the hospital.
Although the sick hospital was an illusory space, the environment in it was barely different from the outside world, the sun rising in the east and setting in the west, there were clouds, wind, and soil …… Lin Seven Nights did not know where these things came from, but there was no doubt that this sick hospital itself was trying its best to simulate the outside world.
Merlin looked at the sky, slowly stood up from his rocking chair, and stretched out his hands to clap lightly.
Snap!
Amidst the sounds of gold and iron clashing in battle, this sound of clapping was incomparably clear, seemingly containing some sort of magical power that directly echoed in everyone’s ears.
Merlin didn’t say anything, but Sun Wukong and Gilgamesh, who were fighting in the courtyard, stopped their hands at the same time and stood at each end of the courtyard, staring at each other, and after a few moments, coldly grunted and put their respective weapons away.
The time for fighting was over for today.
Sun Wukong put away his Golden Band, glanced faintly at Gilgamesh, shrugged his shoulders, and turned around to walk directly towards his hospital room.
”Sun Wukong healing progress: 41%.”
At the same time, in Lin Qiye’s field of vision, the translucent panel on top of Sun Wukong’s head instantly jumped, moving forward by 1% once again.
Lin Qiye’s eyes grew brighter.
Was it a fight?
That’s what caused the Sun Wukong’s healing progress to grow?
Lin Qiye once again confirmed Sun Wukong’s recent behavior with Li Yifei, and after confirming that he basically sat at the entrance of the ward at regular intervals every day, waiting to do battle with Gilgamesh, he was certain of this idea.
What exactly was the reason for Sun Wukong’s entry into this ward, Lin Qiye did not yet know, only that perhaps it was because he had lost someone or some important person.
Fighting, on the other hand, was undoubtedly the way that Sun Wukong used to relieve the pressure and guilt in his heart.
Sun Wukong was the Great Summer’s Great Sage of Qi Tian, his heart was so high and proud, and after experiencing some sort of setback, the depression and guilt in his heart built up in his heart, and coupled with the seal of the robe, it left his entire being in a state of extreme depression, and before Lin Qiye opened the door to that room, he had been sitting there like a statue, not moving a muscle.
His heart, his pride, his emotions, had all been sealed by that robe.
When Sun Wukong first reacted to Lin Qiye’s words, that robe automatically fluttered, and every time Sun Wukong’s emotions fluctuated drastically or he was in a fighting state, the robe would tremble uncontrollably, which meant that the seal had begun to be shaken by Sun Wukong himself.
The Monkey King himself may have realized this during his many battles with Gilgamesh, and took the initiative to seek out a fight in order to break free from this dual physical and mental bondage.
As for why it was Gilgamesh …… Now in this hospital, except for a musician Bragi who can’t fight, there is only one senior mage who is about to go bald, not to mention whether these two can beat him or not, these two outwardly look like they can’t fight too much.
Thus, Gilgamesh, the sickhouse bully who looked like he could fight and would storm out at the slightest provocation, became the best target for Sun Wukong to fight.
On the surface, he was fighting Gilgamesh, but in reality, he was relying on Gilgamesh to break the seal of that robe.
After figuring all this out, Lin Qiye was deeply relieved.
Up until now, the patients in the hospital who wanted to recover needed him to think hard about a cure, but the Monkey King was different, he would now cure himself ……
Of course, relying on fighting to vent his emotions and break the seal was indeed a good path, but this practice was destined to have an upper limit, it was hard to say to what extent it could be healed, as long as Sun Wukong’s knot in his heart did not open up for a day, he would never be able to truly break open that robe.
Right now in this hospital, the ones that cause Lin Qiye the most headache are the Sun Wukong and Gilgamesh, now that the former’s problem has found a solution, but the latter ……
Lin Qiye turned his head to look at Gilgamesh on the other side of the courtyard.
Gilgamesh seemed to have sensed Lin Qiye’s gaze, holding his golden longsword in his hand, he raised his head high and looked at Lin Qiye with a condescending stance, his eyes slightly narrowed:
”Who allowed you to look directly at this king? Bastard.”
Lin Qiye: ……
This one is really sick ah ……
Lin Qiye hesitated for a moment before deciding to go and have a good exchange with Gilgamesh, although it might not be possible to communicate properly with the other party in his current state of mind, it would be considered rewarding if he could roughly surmise the cause of his illness from just a few words.
In any case, the current state of Gilgamesh was much better than the Monkey King at the very beginning.
