Rek used Mental Energy to make the clone invisible within the Tower of Desire.
“Rek, are you done? Can I open my eyes now?” Moon Goddess asked Rek.
“Go ahead and open them!”
“Ah! How did I end up in a library, and why is there an operating room here too? What’s going on? This can’t be an illusion! Wait, I was in the operating room before!” Moon Goddess exclaimed as she walked around the Tower of Desire, carefully touching the scriptures, exploring everything, and even picked up a book to read.
“Genetic Mecha Warrior has the potential to unlock Ability talents.
This is my Ability talent, which allows me to create a special space called Tower of Desire,” Rek explained to Moon Goddess, concealing the item Reward from the War God System, attributing it to the talent of being a Genetic Mecha Warrior.
“There’s actually such an Ability! How amazing!
I’ve only seen Genetic Mecha Warriors in the academy's infirmary who could control water, fire, wind, and earth. Even Alice only has summoning Ability. This is the first time I've seen an Ability that creates a small space.
It makes sense! Since there are summoning Abilities, it indicates that spatial series Abilities can also exist among Genetic Mecha Warriors. Your spatial Ability should naturally exist as well.
What an incredible talent! So you’re also a Genetic Mecha Warrior who has unlocked a talent Ability. Why didn’t you tell me before?” Moon Goddess asked Rek.
“My spatial Ability is quite unique and rare.
I brought you in this time for your treatment. Once you go out, please don’t mention anything about my Ability to anyone; otherwise, it will bring unnecessary trouble for me,” Rek said, using this as an excuse.
Moon Goddess nodded after listening, indicating her understanding.
"Can this space heal me? How will you heal me?" After accepting the existence of this space, Moon Goddess walked around for a few minutes before returning to Rek and speaking.
"In my Tower of Desire, any creature that has been killed will be revived, returning to the initial state they were in when they first entered the Tower of Desire.
I am prepared to perform surgery here. If the surgery fails, one cut will bring you back to your initial state and revive you," Rek said to Moon Goddess.
"Really? You can truly restore my initial state and revive me? Have you tested this?
And what if you kill me and I can't be revived!" Moon Goddess said, half-believing.
"Don't worry, I have personally tested it countless times. Just relax and lie on the Surgical Table.
Here, put on this helmet. It’s a helmet I got from your grandfather Hua Tuo in the Ancient Capital. Activating it will pause any hidden dangers in your brain for twelve hours," Rek explained.
Rek then picked up a Metal Helmet from within the Tower of Desire, signaling for Moon Goddess to wear it.
Moon Goddess was extremely uneasy, but having reached this point, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and lie down on the Surgical Table, putting on the Metal Helmet.
"When did you go to my grandfather Hua Tuo? How does he have this helmet?" Moon Goddess asked.
"Don't think too much about it; we need to start the surgery," Rek said as he pressed the activation button on the helmet. A few seconds later, the helmet's indicator light turned green. According to Hua Tuo, a green light means that the bomb in Moon Goddess's brain has been paused.
"Come on, I'll give you some anesthetic. Just relax your body and sleep for a while," Lei said as he prepared to inject the anesthetic into the Moon Goddess.
Rek glanced at the anesthetic syringe, which had more than thirty doses. Even if this attempt failed, there were still over thirty chances left, so there was no fear of wasting it.
"No, just use acupuncture to block my pain points instead. I'll tell you the acupoints and how to needle them. You can perform acupuncture on me using the basic acupuncture techniques I taught you. That way, if anything goes wrong during the surgery, I can still stay awake and guide you. I'll get you the Golden Needle; it's in my pocket," the Moon Goddess said, still a bit uneasy.
"Stop with the nonsense. I don't like being disturbed during surgery," Rek replied, quickly rolling up the Moon Goddess's sleeve and inserting the anesthetic needle.
Rek was also worried that if the surgery failed and he had to repeat the process multiple times, if the Moon Goddess wasn't anesthetized and remained conscious, he might have to kill her himself. Going through so many surgeries would leave her with significant psychological trauma, so it was better for her to be operated on while anesthetized.
"You!" the Moon Goddess exclaimed as the anesthetic quickly took effect, causing her to close her eyes and fall unconscious.
Rek removed the metal helmet from the Moon Goddess's head and began connecting various medical instruments next to the surgical table.
Taking a deep breath, Rek picked up the scalpel and boldly proceeded with the craniotomy.
He pried open the Moon Goddess's skull and looked at the pulsating brain tissue, using the nearby instruments for assistance as he made his incision.
"Ah!" The unconscious Moon Goddess unexpectedly let out a scream, and blood began to flow from her mouth, nostrils, and ears.
Rek glanced at the electronic device next to the surgical table that displayed the Moon Goddess's vital signs. The data indicated that her bodily functions were rapidly deteriorating.
"Oops, I cut too deep and seem to have damaged some brain tissue. Let's try again, but this time be more careful," Rek muttered to himself, feeling a bit embarrassed as he held the scalpel and swiftly cut the Moon Goddess's neck. She died quickly, and her body vanished.
Soon, the Moon Goddess was reborn inside the Tower of Desire, standing in the same spot where she had entered.
"Come on, Moon Goddess, lie down on the Surgical Table and put on this helmet!" Rek instructed her.
"I remember my previous experience; I wore a helmet once and you injected me with anesthesia. Did you fail the surgery again and bring me back to life?" Moon Goddess asked, touching her body, which felt perfectly fine, with a somewhat strange tone.
"The surgery will be a hundred percent successful, don't worry. Just lie down," Rek urged, avoiding her question.
Moon Goddess put on the helmet again and was soon injected with anesthesia by Rek, quickly falling unconscious.
This time, Rek learned from his previous experience and carefully made the incision to remove the small device from her brain. However, the device turned out to be quite fragile; he only managed to cut off half of it while the other half remained connected to Moon Goddess's brain.
"Removing half should render this bomb inactive. Let's stitch up the wound and see," Rek sighed, feeling a bit guilty.
An hour later, Moon Goddess opened her eyes and looked at Rek.
"It worked! I told you I was amazing. How do you feel?" Rek asked her eagerly.
"Oh, oh, oh!" Moon Goddess could only utter incomplete phrases, expressing fear as she looked at Rek with a terrified expression.
