Chapter 43: Chapter 43: Crazy

After Lu Xiao spoke, the officer standing guard finally noticed that 3377 hadn’t made a sound in a while.

Upon checking, they found that it was just as Lu Xiao had said—he had actually fallen asleep.

Their eyes widened involuntarily. They knew very well that S-Class males at the Mid-Advanced and High Stage almost never slept.

It wasn’t that they didn’t want to, but that they couldn’t.

The consequence of this sleeplessness was that their bodies and minds never got any rest, leaving them in a constant state of agitation.

At this stage, medication was completely ineffective. Their only recourse was to simply wait for death.

Yet this young female before them had performed just one Spiritual Soothing, and 3377 had fallen asleep.

It was simply unbelievable.

Lu Xiao had already left the containment cell with Teacher Ai Li. Once they arrived at the lounge, Teacher Ai Li said, "You can rest here. I’ll make sure no one disturbs you."

"Thank you."

"Of course. Get some sleep. Call me if you need anything; I’ll be right outside." Teacher Ai Li didn’t say more. Honestly, Lu Xiao’s current state was too heart-wrenching to see.

Her face was pale, as if she were recovering from a serious illness.

’As I thought, having Lu Xiao treat an S-Class male who is losing control is far too dangerous. I have to find Admiral Hans and make him rescind this order.’

Before falling asleep, Lu Xiao sent a message to Ares: "I probably won’t be back until tomorrow. Don’t worry, I’m okay."

She received a reply from Ares almost instantly: "Alright. Contact me anytime if something comes up."

Seeing his reply, a small smile touched Lu Xiao’s lips. ’I knew it,’ she thought. ’Ares wouldn’t be resting. He must have been waiting for my message.’

The exhaustion from having completely depleted her power didn’t allow Lu Xiao to stay awake for long, and she soon drifted off to sleep.

Meanwhile, Admiral Hans had arrived at the containment cell to personally check on 3377’s condition.

After confirming that the danger assessment for 3377’s Spirit Sea was now showing both red and green values, Admiral Hans could no longer hide the excitement in his eyes.

’It’s possible! She can actually do it!’

’Does this mean that S-Class males who are losing control can be saved after all?’

"Admiral Hans, I must speak with you!" Teacher Ai Li suddenly pushed the door open, her expression exceptionally grim.

Hans smiled. "You’ve arrived at the perfect time. Come and see, Lady Lu Xiao is truly remarkable. With just one Spiritual Soothing, she managed to..."

"Enough, Hans! This can’t continue. Even if Lu Xiao can help treat High Stage S-Class males, she can’t handle it in her current condition. You’ll be the death of her! Didn’t you see the state she was in? I demand you abandon this idea immediately. As soon as Lu Xiao is rested, I’m taking her back!"

Hans looked at the furious Ai Li. "My apologies. In my excitement, I was inconsiderate of Lu Xiao’s condition. You’re right. Given her current state, this is indeed too much to ask of her. When she wakes up, you may take her back to get some proper rest."

Seeing Hans relent, Teacher Ai Li’s expression softened considerably. "I see you haven’t lost your mind completely."

Hans replied in earnest, "Lady Lu Xiao is our hope for treating the S-Class males. I want to see her come to harm even less than you do."

"I hope you continue to think that way." With that, Teacher Ai Li turned and left.

Just then, the officer standing guard over 3377 reported, "Admiral, 3377 is awake. He slept for a total of 13 minutes and 44 seconds."

Upon hearing this, Hans immediately went to 3377’s side. 3377, having just woken up, still looked very dazed, but his beast-like pupils had returned to normal.

Seeing this, Hans smiled and asked, "3377, can you hear me? How are you feeling?"

Focus gradually returned to 3377’s eyes. When he saw Admiral Hans, a look of surprise flashed within them. "I... I’m not dead?"

Apparently, his forked tongue had also reverted, allowing him to speak, though his voice was hoarse and grating.

Hans looked up at the nearby officer. "Get him some water."

He then turned back to 3377. "That’s right. You’re very lucky; you’re still alive. How do you feel now? Can you describe it?"

"My Spirit Sea... it feels fine. It doesn’t hurt as much anymore. Did I... did I fall asleep just now?"

looked uncertainly at Hans, confusion filling his eyes.

"Yes. It was for less than fifteen minutes, but you did indeed fall asleep. Someone saved you."

"Who?" 3377 asked urgently.

Hans smiled at him. "Her name is Lu Xiao. She’s resting now because of the toll it took to save you. Once she’s awake, you can thank her... if she’s willing to see you. For now, you should rest."

Hans said no more. After giving instructions to the personnel on duty, he left.

Lu Xiao fell into a deep sleep and didn’t wake until dawn the next morning.

She was still a bit dazed upon waking, and she lingered under the covers for a while before her mind fully cleared.

Though she still felt a lingering exhaustion, she was much better, and more than half of her purification power had returned.

She checked the time. It was already past 7:00 in the morning.

After freshening up, Lu Xiao opened the door to find an officer standing guard outside.

Upon seeing her, he immediately saluted and said, "Lady Lu Xiao, Admiral Hans instructed me to escort you to breakfast now that you’re awake. Please, follow me."

Lu Xiao nodded. "How is 3377? How long did he sleep?"

The officer was surprised she would ask about 3377 immediately after waking up and couldn’t help but feel touched. ’How could there be a female like this, who disregards her own safety to care for us males?’

"3377’s condition is currently stable, and he is conscious. He slept for 13 minutes and 44 seconds."

’Less than fifteen minutes?’ she thought. ’It seems my ability has only a minimal effect on an Advanced S-Class male.’

"Okay, thank you. I understand." Lu Xiao decided she would perform another Spiritual Soothing for 3377 after breakfast.

’But if I do that, I’ll most likely have to cancel my other Spiritual Soothing appointments for the day.’

’But some things are more urgent than others. I’m sure they’ll all understand.’

When Teacher Ai Li saw her, she immediately hurried over and asked with concern, "Why didn’t you sleep a little longer, Xiao Xiao?"

"I’m wide awake. Teacher Ai Li, I’d like to request a day off," Lu Xiao said as she picked out her breakfast.

"No problem. You can rest for as long as you want." Teacher Ai Li looked at Lu Xiao with a relieved expression. ’I can’t believe she’s finally learning to take care of her own body,’ she thought. ’Maybe the suffering she went through this time wasn’t entirely a bad thing.’

But in the next moment, Lu Xiao continued, "Just one day will be enough. The main reason is that I want to perform another Spiritual Soothing on 3377. After I’m done with him, I won’t have any energy left to treat anyone else today, so I need to take the day off. I hope you can let Admiral Hans know for me."

Teacher Ai Li’s eyes widened as she stared at Lu Xiao in shock. "My dear, have you lost your mind? You’re going to perform another Spiritual Soothing on 3377?"
