Chapter 63: Emerald Crane

  Looking at Zhao Xinxin, who was already unconscious on the hospital bed, wrapped in bandages with only a pair of eyes exposed, He Dong's eyes blazed with anger, his temples bulged with blue veins, and his tightly clenched fists were trembling non-stop.

  "Doctor, how is Xin Xin's current situation? When can she wake up?" He Dong suppressed his anger and asked the doctor.

  "The patient's total burn area has exceeded 50%, with inhalation injury to the respiratory tract, some mild infection in the lungs, and difficulty breathing on her own. We are also worried about the risk of sepsis. So her condition is not optimistic, and there is a risk to her life at any time."

  "What...what should we do?" Hearing Zhao Xinxin's situation was extremely dangerous, Meng Jing who was standing aside and crying became even more frightened.

  "For now, we don't have a good solution, and can only strengthen nutrition while injecting antibiotics to resist infection. As long as the patient can get through this infection, their life will be more or less saved. However, even if their life is saved, the patient's appearance..." The doctor explained.

  "Doctor, as long as you can save her, no matter what the cost." The doctor's words made He Dong's expression suddenly turn gloomy, but he still said a very common yet heartfelt sentence.

  "We'll do our best!" The doctor nodded and said.

  Zhaixin is now in the ICU, and He Dong and others can't stay for long. Although they wish to be by Zhaixin's side every moment, they eventually left with a heavy heart.

  While outside the ICU, Lei An and Wang Xuewu were waiting there, and even Wang Xuewen came, but he was low-key and no one knew that among those waiting outside the ICU was also a mayor.

  "Whoever it is, don't let me know!" Wang Xuewu clenched his fist and slammed it against the wall in anger.

  "Xiao Dong, I've already instructed Sun Kailiang to thoroughly investigate this matter!" Wang Xuewen said seriously.

  "Dong Shao, now all the security guards at Lei An have been released. We will dig three feet underground if we have to, but we must catch the murderer!" The evil energy on Lei An's body was churning, and Zhao Xinxin's injury made him feel extremely guilty towards He Dong.

  "Thank you, everyone!" He Dong's voice was low and solemn. Then he shifted his gaze to Meng Jing, who had fainted once before due to heartbreak and now looked even weaker. "Don't worry, Mom, Xinxin will be fine!"

  "Xinxin did this for me! We must save her! Save her!" Meng Jing's emotions were still unstable.

  "Mom, don't worry, I guarantee that Xin Xin will be fine!" He Dong said, gesturing to Lei An to take his mom away for the time being.

  His own villa was attacked, and He Dong would definitely not let his family continue to live there anymore. So He Dong had already asked Lei An to arrange a place for them to stay in advance.

  After Meng Jing was sent away, He Dong's expression suddenly turned gloomy. He had already understood the whole thing very clearly.

  At first, He Dong thought that Meng Jing's fireball might be a dangerous object such as a burning bottle thrown by someone, but after on-site investigation, all hazardous objects that could produce fireballs have been ruled out. Even Wang Xuewen mobilized special forces to invite the army's weapons experts, no discovery was made.

  This directly led to Zhao Xinxin and his family being attacked becoming a mystery, but this mystery made He Dong restless, because he had already solved it. Someone indeed used the fireball technique from fire magic to attack his family. And why he was so sure was that He Dong found traces of fire magic elements gathering at the scene of the crime.

  "On this earth, apart from myself, is there anyone else who understands fire magic?" He Dong suddenly felt a sense of fear that many things were not under his control.

  This fear gave He Dong a sense of urgency, and he began to quietly sort out all his skills: the Wood System's Entwining Technique, the Water System's Water Ball Technique, the Fire System's Fireball Technique and Flame Shield Technique. His body had already enhanced its leg strength, eyesight, and defensive power, and now his strength had also increased dramatically, allowing him to tear through metal with his hands after merging with the Phantom Beast. Apart from these, he also possessed auxiliary abilities such as Transformation, Turtle Breath, and Danger Detection.

  Looking at the abilities he possessed, He Dong slightly let out a breath of relief. However, He Dong still had some misgivings, and just then, he suddenly thought that he still had nearly seventy summoning points, enough to summon another fourth-level pet.

  He Dong immediately came to a separate toilet, and after observing the surrounding environment, he drilled into the summoning space.

  The decision to choose Beast Summoning was actually made during the last summon of the Spirit Beast, but the ability brought by Qianye Jiaoren was too shocking, so he temporarily put aside Beast Summoning.

  "Heavenly Father, bless me and let me summon a powerful, helpful demon!" He Dong stood in front of Square 4, silently praying in his heart.

  Category: Demon Beast

  Level: Intermediate

  Name: Emerald Crane

  Racial characteristics: A majestic magical beast, a favorite ornamental pet of the nobility.

  Innate Ability: Automatically absorbs fire-elemental magic from the air.

  Special Skills: Water System Magic, Water Arrow Technique, Water Wall Technique, Water Mirror Technique, Water Healing Technique

  "A fourth-level demon beast is so powerful, it actually has four special skills at once!" Although the peacock in front of him was stunningly beautiful, He Dong liked the peacock's special skills even more.

  After a series of extraction, absorption and fusion work, He Dong closed his eyes and slowly savored the four new skills he had obtained. The Water Arrow Technique was an attack spell that condensed water elements into a water arrow to attack enemies, its power far surpassing that of the Water Ball Technique.

  The Water Wall Technique is a defensive magic that can form a water wall to defend against enemy attacks. The Water Mirror Technique, on the other hand, is an investigative magic, and with He Dong's current abilities, he can use it to observe situations within a thousand meters around him.

  At this time, He Dong was most concerned about hydrotherapy. After a practice by He Dong, he was surprised to find that hydrotherapy was actually a therapeutic technique that could treat any external injury, internal injury, and even detoxify. Due to the principle of water and fire being incompatible, it had a particularly significant therapeutic effect on injuries caused by fire magic.

  "It's remarkably effective against fire magic damage! He Dong is going to be saved! Haha haha haha!" Without delaying for a moment, he immediately came out of the summoning space and rushed towards the ICU.

  "Is Zhao Xinxin's family here? Is Zhao Xinxin's family here?" Just as He Dong had just arrived at the ICU and was about to press the call button outside, several people suddenly pushed out a hospital bed with someone lying on it, covered from head to toe in white sheets.

  Seeing this situation, He Dong suddenly felt a loud noise in his brain, and he was completely stunned.
