The overflowing emotions seemed to have nowhere to go.
then--
The girl offered Lu Ye a loving kiss on the lips.
……
Two days later, on a sunny afternoon.
Located five kilometers east of Leiden, there is a small hill where a sanatorium has been built.
This place was originally a magnificent church, but due to the lack of medical facilities caused by the expansion of the war, it was converted into a hospital.
The driveway, lined with lush trees, is not wide, and sunlight filters through the leaves, casting dappled shadows in the woods.
Although it's winter, the sunshine today is very gentle.
Lu Ye leaned against the window, looking at the scenery outside.
From the rooms high up in the church, you can see the end of the mountains and forests, and further ahead is the harbor.
The battle ended within two hours of Luye and Violet joining the fray.
With the threat of armor gone, Leiden's armored soldiers crushed the enemy.
Leiden's mech soldiers didn't just stand there watching. Realizing they couldn't help Luye and Violet, they immediately took the wounded to the other battlefield to provide support and quickly achieved victory.
When they returned there, they found Luye and Violet nestled together, fast asleep.
Lu Ye turned to look into the room. The blonde girl was lying on the hospital bed with her eyes closed and her breathing calm.
She has been sleeping for two whole days, relying entirely on glucose transfusions for energy.
The doctor said her problem was caused by overwork, and Lu Ye knew this too.
After all, Violet was not only pushing the armor to its limits, but also pushing her own body to its limits.
Violet accomplished those actions that the mechs couldn't do with their own energy using sheer power.
Her physical toll was several times greater than Lu Ye's, and coupled with her bizarre sleep patterns earlier... Lu Ye wouldn't be surprised if she slept for another two days. Nevertheless, Lu Ye gave Violet the last of his [Panacea], hoping she could recover quickly.
A moment later, Lu Ye put on his coat and walked out of the room.
Reaching the end of the corridor, I pushed open the door and entered.
A blond boy was sitting on the hospital bed.
"You're awake?" Lu Ye greeted.
"Thank you." The boy looked out the window, not at him.
I want to ask you a question.
"Please speak."
Is your father really your father?
Chapter 88 Killing Two Birds with One Stone
Faced with this seemingly silly question, the blond boy lowered his head and actually began to think about it seriously.
"do not know……"
"What's your name?"
“Audean…”
"What do you know about your father?"
The boy remained silent.
"You should have guessed it more or less by now, so just tell me. Secrets can't be kept forever."
Auden remained silent.
Seeing his appearance, Lu Ye couldn't help but exhale a puff of white breath.
“Leiden gave me a sum of money and granted me a noble title as a reward for saving Kenny,” Luye said. “With this title, I found out something from a captain. Your father… Colonel O’Sullider was killed in action while rescuing his comrades, with only two surviving. So last night I visited the surviving soldier, and he told me something strange—there were eight men in the team, two survived, but there were seven corpses.”
Audean pursed his lips tightly.
“If I’m not mistaken, the colonel is dead, right?” Lu Ye stared at Audean’s face.
“My father is not dead... he is still alive.”
Although he denied Lu Ye's words, Auden's expression completely betrayed him.
Lu Ye had already noticed this while they were training: the colonel was completely indifferent to his son, treating him like a pawn that could be discarded at any time, just like the characteristics of a clone.
After receiving the answer, Lu Ye simply greeted him.
He probably already knew the colonel's true identity.
After leaving the room and returning to his original ward, he continued to take care of Violet.
He has no intention of leaving Leiden.
On the one hand, they had to take care of the girl in the hospital bed.
On the other hand, after waking up, he immediately activated the [Protoss Detection Device].
This is a tool that probes for Protoss fragments in all directions from itself.
Lu Ye originally intended to use it in Fan Erdong.
But after noticing the various anomalies, especially after the battles of the previous two days, he had already determined the location of the remaining fragments in his mind.
The Protoss Detection Device confirmed his idea.
The remaining fragment—is in Leiden.
Someone orchestrated a war that would sway the Western world using only two Protoss fragments.
After 2 p.m., more people came to the sanatorium.
Various exquisite carriages were parked in the front yard, and occasionally even a ceremonial carriage would appear.
Those people dressed in fine clothes and looking glamorous got out of the car to pay a visit to a "hero".
A hero who saved Leiden from peril.
After Lu Ye attended the award ceremony last night, he became known to almost the entire upper class.
Maritime trade has always been Leiden's main source of income. The loss of each port would significantly reduce economic benefits. Lu Ye's act of defending Kenny was tantamount to saving the interests of the country and the nobles.
However, Lu Ye didn't really care about this.
These nobles can leave whenever they want.
He simply wanted to save the ordinary people who remained in the port.
From 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., the ward was lively but not crowded.
For a time, the two of them were like extremely popular celebrities.
The room was filled with exquisite fruit baskets of all sizes and various gifts, and socialites and gentlemen of all kinds came to visit Lu Ye and Violet one after another.
After all, Lu Ye is now a rising nobleman and a hero who saved Leiden Port, so people from all walks of life want to get to know him.
Someone offered their condolences, and they nodded in acknowledgment.
Someone exchanged a few simple pleasantries.
Someone brought in a reporter, shook Lu Ye's hand, thanked her repeatedly, and had tears in their eyes.
Although some of their showy behavior was despicable, they were, after all, educated people. No one spoke loudly in the ward to disturb Violet's rest; otherwise, Lu Ye would have had to ask them to get out gracefully.
Only those elegantly or fashionably dressed women in their twenties and above left something like a business card as they left, and then cast all sorts of alluring glances at Lu Ye, exuding hormones.
Lu Ye carefully collected the scraps of paper.
—The money isn't enough. What if we need money again in the future?
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the church bell tower, and the afternoon passed just like that.
After seeing off the last guest, Lu Ye did not wait for the person he had expected.
He piled all the expensive gifts in the corner of the room, and then wiped Violet's body.
These were originally the female caregivers' jobs, but Lu Ye insisted on taking care of Violet himself.
Although the girl's vital signs were normal, Lu Ye didn't want her to see other people when she opened her eyes, as that would make her uneasy.
Lu Ye still wanted to see her with her bright blue eyes wide open, saying silly things, and obediently following behind him.
Time is like a fleeting moment.
A month has passed.
During this time, Lu Ye spent his time taking care of Violet and exercising. His injuries were healed by the universal potion he exchanged, so he is now fine.
He would occasionally visit the homes of nobles and military personnel in Leiden to gather intelligence.
After these days of careful care, Violet's complexion has improved a lot, and her overdrawn physical functions are gradually recovering.
Although the doctor told Lu Ye to prepare herself for the possibility that Violet might never wake up again, Lu Ye knew that the day Violet woke up was approaching.
This was his intuition.
The weather was getting colder and colder. This morning, after taking good care of Violet, Lu Ye started exercising.
Around noon, as he was getting ready to take a shower, covered in sweat, he suddenly noticed that the people in the sanatorium looked terrible.
"what happened?"
He asked a nurse next to him.
Then came some news that wasn't particularly surprising.
Leiden was defeated.
The news spread quickly throughout the country, and the sanatorium was already late to the party.
The story dates back to the Kenny offensive and defensive battle more than a month ago.
After that incident, the councilors of Leiden were very angry, believing that this move had crossed the line of war. In addition, the armor based on Violet had passed all the tests and performed very well in the battles in Kenny. So they quickly mass-produced it and put it into the battlefield, and at the same time announced the counterattack against Vandon.
