Chapter 8 If he were to lay a hand on me now, I might have to wait several years outside of prison.
She closed her eyes.
The stigmata on his chest glowed with a deep blue light.
The light grew brighter and brighter, spreading from her chest to her entire body, as if calling out to something.
Then a huge mech slowly took shape in the light.
Silver-blue and white armor, rounded outline, and two thrusters that stand up like rabbit ears.
Reloaded Rabbit 19C.
Seele tried to reach out and touch it, but her body had already begun to turn transparent.
Spots of light drifted from her fingertips, hair, and the hem of her clothes.
Her strength was waning.
The heavily armed bunny hung in mid-air, not being handed over to anyone.
"...Brother Chen Feng."
Xi'er turned her head and looked at Chen Feng.
There was no fear in her eyes, only a calm plea.
"Help me... give this to Bronya."
Chen Feng looked into her eyes.
Looking into the final trust in her eyes.
"it is good."
He reached out and grasped the armor of the heavily armored bunny.
That heavy, cold sensation entered my palm.
At the same time, a violent power surged from the mech—the power of Seele's Mark.
Chen Feng's body trembled violently.
Golden light exploded around him, fiercely clashing with that force.
Bronya froze when she saw Chen Feng's back.
She couldn't see his expression, but she could see his clenched teeth and the violent trembling of his hand holding the heavy-duty bunny.
He is bearing what for Seele.
Bronya's hand unconsciously pressed against the glass.
She wanted to tell him to stop, but the words stuck in her throat.
Because it was Seele's gift.
This was Seele's final entrustment.
If Chen Feng doesn't accept, the Heavy Bunny will disappear along with Seele.
So all she could do was watch.
Watching the veins bulge on Chen Feng's arm, watching the golden glow and the blue holy power clash wildly in his hand, watching a trace of blood slowly trickle from the corner of his mouth.
Then, he steadily pulled the heavily armed bunny out of the light.
He did not let go.
"Brother Chen Feng!"
Seele's voice was filled with panic.
"It's okay."
Chen Feng gritted his teeth and forced a smile.
"This level of injury...it can't hurt me."
He pulled the heavily armed bunny out of the light.
The silver-blue-white mecha hovered quietly beside him, as if it had finally found its master.
Seeing all this, Seele's eyes reddened.
"……Thanks."
Her body transformed into countless points of light.
The experimental chamber was empty.
Chen Feng stood still, still holding the armor of the Heavy Rabbit in his hand.
His body was trembling slightly, and the veins on his forehead were bulging.
"...Chen Feng?"
Bronya's voice came from outside the glass, carrying a panic she had never felt before.
Chen Feng did not answer.
His vision began to blur.
The golden glow slowly dissipated from him, like a candle flame that had burned out.
The Heavy Bunny slipped from his hand, hovered in mid-air, and quietly floated to Bronya's side.
Bronya stared at it, stunned.
Then, she heard a dull thud behind her as she fell to the ground.
Chen Feng lay on the ground, his face as pale as paper.
"Chen Feng!"
Bronya staggered over, knelt beside him, and reached out to check his breath.
Thankfully, I'm still alive.
She withdrew her hand and found her fingertips trembling.
"...You did it."
Her voice was very low, so low that only she could hear it.
"You delivered the gift to Bronya on Seele's behalf."
"So...you can't be hurt."
……
"Ugh, going to school is so painful. That 'cold-faced guy' hasn't come for days. I hope something happened to him."
Kiana stretched and lay on the table, then turned to look at the seat that had been empty for several days and couldn't help but mutter to herself.
"He's the only one who could get into trouble. Shut your mouth and stop jinxing him."
Looking at the listless Kiana, the future Kiana couldn't help but sigh softly.
He should have been in a coma for some time.
It's normal to be unconscious for a few days after using that power for the first time.
However, judging from the recent situation around them, nothing unusual seems to have happened, which means that everything is probably normal for Bronya.
Bronya and Seele are back to normal, but something seems off with Mei.
The future Kiana turned to look at Raiden Mei of this era, and seeing her increasingly depressed expression, she didn't know what to do.
She hadn't arrived as early as Chen Feng, and although she and Mei had become friends, the most important part of Mei's heart already belonged to Chen Feng.
Adding to Chen Feng's absence last time, Mei's mental state is now very poor.
If she remembered correctly, Mei would be on the rooftop in three days.
No.
"Hey, wake up! Remember to go to the rooftop in three days and keep watch for me there all day."
"Huh? Why?! Didn't you say I'd have three days to rest?"
"Stop talking nonsense, you'll find out when the time comes."
The future Kiana didn't want to reveal Mei's situation right now, since Mei was very vulnerable, and she was afraid that if she told her current, tactless self, Mei would cause trouble.
I just don't know when Chen Feng will be able to come back this time.
I must make it...
……
When Chen Feng woke up, the first thing he saw was the unfamiliar ceiling above him.
He blinked, his consciousness slowly returning.
Just then, a voice came from beside him, not loud and very soft.
He lay on the bed and turned his head to look. He saw Bronya sitting on a chair by the bed, holding a Houmu toy in her arms. Her face was expressionless, but he still caught the surprise in her eyes.
"How long have I been unconscious?"
Bronya got off the chair, limped over to his bedside and sat down, answering softly.
"You've been unconscious for five days. Bronya thought you weren't going to make it."
five days?
Did Bronya continue her experiments?
The thought of this made him want to straighten up.
Seeing this, Bronya reached out and helped him sit up.
"Your body hasn't fully recovered yet, it would be better for you to lie down and rest."
Chen Feng knew this, of course, since he could still feel some weakness in his body.
I didn't control myself well when I gave Seele energy before, and I gave her a little too much.
Hopefully it will come in handy.
Beside Bronya, the future Bronya looked at Chen Feng, whose face was still tired, and sighed softly.
"He gave almost half of his energy to Seele this time, which is why he is so weak."
It's important to understand that at this time, the energy in his body is not easy to replenish; once it's used up, he'll need to use his life force to continue using it.
When the disaster struck Changkong City, I suspected that he had used too much power, which shortened his lifespan and led to the subsequent events.
As Bronya listened to what her future self was saying, she quietly clenched her fists.
She had always been wary of Chen Feng and her future self.
But now everything his future self said has come true, and Chen Feng has paid a heavy price to save Xi'er.
This made her believe that Chen Feng truly considered them family.
Just like my future self said.
While Bronya remained silent, Chen Feng couldn't help but ask a question.
"and you……"
"Bronya will find a way to rescue Seele, she definitely will."
Bronya's eyes were very determined.
Seeing her like this, Chen Feng remained silent for a moment before taking Bronya's hand.
The moment she was caught, Bronya almost instinctively turned around to attack, but she managed to suppress the urge.
She looked at Chen Feng with suspicion and uncertainty, wondering what he was going to do.
Could it be that they're going to make a move against Bronya?
The future Bronya saw her own expression and knew what she was thinking. She spread her hands and said, "Don't think like that. Actually, if he were to attack me now, I'd be quite happy. It's just that I might have to wait for him outside prison for a few years."
