Chapter 221: Re: I Only Need 72 Hours To Fall In Love With You

---

    剧烈的疼痛让尚可几欲晕厥，然而超强的意志力硬是让他挺了过来，胸口被纹上了一朵妖冶的苍穹赤炎，耳边萦绕着烦人的声音，反复询问着他无法回答的问题，似曾相识的感觉涌上心头。

Acute pain caused Shang Ke to almost faint, however, his exceedingly stubborn willpower allowed him to ride it through. The Flaming Sky Flower had been tattooed onto his chest while an annoying voice lingered by his ear that continued to ask questions he could not answer. A feeling of deja vu rose up in his mind.

    啊，想起来了，他好像被某个奇怪的系统送进了另一个世界，要求完成任务才能返回。

Ah, he remembered. He seems to have been sent to another world by a strange System, requesting him to complete missions to go home.

    任务？他的任务是什么来着？尚可意识昏沉，身体在残酷的折磨下，不住地发抖，鲜血混合着汗水，将他整个人浸湿。他只能不停思考，以便转移自己的注意力。

Mission? What was his mission again? Shang Ke’s consciousness was murky, his body trembled non-stop under the cruel tortures. Blood mixed with sweat and soaked him through. He could only keep thinking to shift his attention away.

    正在这时，大脑中突然传来一个熟悉的声音：【痛感减轻100%（时限45小时），获得每天2小时的自愈能力，完美表情包升级为完美形象包——无论亲爱的宿主遭遇怎样的意外，都能呈现出传说中360度无死角的完美面部表情和身形体态，让亲爱的宿主美出境界，美出深度，美出超凡脱俗。】

Right at this moment, a familiar voice came through his mind: 【Pain Reduction 100% (Time limit 45 hours), received two hours of self-recovery everyday. Perfect Expression pack has been upgraded into Perfect Image Pack—No matter what kind of accident Dear Host runs into, you will have the legendary 360 degree perfect facial expression and figure posture, so that Host can be beautiful out of this world, beautiful to the depths and beautiful beyond mortal understanding.】

    尚可：“……”

Shang Ke: “……”

    【距离刑讯结束只剩下48个小时，亲爱的宿主什么都不必担心，只需要负责“美”就行了。】

【There are only forty-eight hours left of interrogation torture. Dear Host, you don’t need to worry about anything, you only need to take care of being “beautiful”.】

    尚可：……负责“美”是什么鬼？他的任务就是负责“美”吗？

Shang Ke: …What the heck was taking care of being “beautiful”? Was his mission just to be “beautiful”?

    【亲爱的宿主真聪明，你的任务就是负责“美”，等刑讯结束，把伤养好，再勾搭一个美男子，成家立业，走上人生巅峰，达到“幸福美满”的成就。】

【Dear Host, you really are smart. Your mission is indeed to just be “beautiful” and wait for the torture to end. Once you have healed up, go pick up a beautiful man, get married and settle down and walk to the peak of your life, obtaining the “Blissful Happiness” accomplishment.】

    这就是他的任务？尚可总觉得哪里不对，虽然他的记忆有些残缺不全，但直觉告诉他，事情不是这样的！

This was his mission? Shang Ke felt that something was wrong, although his memories were badly damaged, his intuition told him things weren’t like this.

    【请不要怀疑系统的真心，系统已经华丽升级，正式命名为“完美人生伴侣”，任务就是帮助宿主生生世世幸福美满。】

【Please do not doubt the System’s sincerity, the System has already been marvelously upgraded and formally been given the name “Perfect Life Partner”. The mission is to help Host live from young to old in blissful happiness.】

    尚可：听起来似乎很美好……

Shang Ke: It sounds very wonderful (beautiful)… 

    【系统受限于世界规则，不能停留太久，宿主需要帮助时，请向系统发送脑电“秋波”，“秋波”一定要大，不然系统是接收不到的。】

【The System is limited by the rules of this world and cannot stay here too long. When Host needs help, please transmit a mental “amorous glance” to the System. It must be strong, otherwise the System might not be able to receive it.】

    果然很不对劲！这个系统真的是他记忆中那个系统吗？画风完全不一样！

Something really is wrong! Is this System really the same System in his memories? The style is completely different!!

    尚可还想多问几句，系统却已经消失了。

Shang Ke had wanted to ask it a few more questions but the System had already disappeared.

    刑讯还在继续，但减轻了100%的痛感后，酷刑对尚可已经不具任何威胁，只是各种刑具、药物施加在身上，时不时会引起肌肉的痉挛，鲜血和汗水依然流淌不止。

The torture was still continuing, but since the pain reduction has been maxed out, the torture held no danger toward Shang Ke. it was just that through the various equipment, drugs and burdens placed on his body, his muscles would jerk from time to time as blood and sweat flowed without pause.

    随着时间的推移，刑罚也越来越重，几十个小时，尚可经历了中毒、催眠、火刺、凌迟，最后还被击碎了四肢。

With the passage of time, his tortures became more severe. In about a dozen hours, Shang Ke experienced poisoning, hypnosis, burning stabs, thousand cuts, and finally all four of his limbs were broken.

    虽然已经减轻了100%的痛感，但反复的折磨，依然让他的身体达到了危险的临界值。若非拥有2个小时的自愈能力，他就算能活下来，恐怕也会落下终身残疾。

Although pain was completely nullified, his body was reaching its extreme limits through the repeated tortures. If not for the two hours of self-recovery, even if he could survive he would probably be disabled for life.

    等到减轻痛感的45小时结束，尚可又强撑了两个小时，然后如记忆中那般，对着金属墙壁露出一个笑容，霎那间，光华璀璨。他用尽最后的力气，缓慢而坚定地吐出五个字：“克鲁斯，必亡。”

When the forty-five hours of pain reduction ended, Shang Ke held strong for another two hours, then like he had remembered, he smiled at the camera on the metal wall. It was like light had descended at that moment. He used up the last bit of his energy and slowly but firmly spoke three words, “Cruise will die.”

    然后，终于可以幸福地晕过去了……

After that, he could finally happily lose consciousness… 

    昏睡中，这个世界的“主角”拉威尔，完成了蓄势已久的反攻。尚可那句“克鲁斯，必亡”成为了义军的口号，短短7个小时，他们就在拉威尔的带领下，掌握了战争的主动权。

While he slept, the “main character” of this world, Ravel had completed the counterattack they waited so long for. Shang Ke’s words of “Cruise, will die” became their motto. In just a short seven hours, they had obtained the advantage of the war under Ravel’s leadership.

    当尚可醒来时，已经躺在医院中，接受了最完善的治疗。

When Shang Ke woke up, he was already at the hospital, receiving the most perfect treatment.

    “他的情况怎么样？”病房外传来两人的交谈声。

“How is his situation?” The discussion between two people floated in from outside.

    “断裂的骨骼可以通过仪器治愈，但最后能够恢复到什么程度，还得看他自身的体质。真正麻烦的是他体内的生物毒素，如果只有一两种，我们还有办法解决，但足足十二种……我不得不说，在遭受那样的酷刑之后，他还能活下来，简直就是一个奇迹。”

“The broken bones can be treated, but to what extent he can heal is all up to his constitution. What is causing the real trouble is the poison in his body. If it were just one or two types, we would be able to handle it, but twelve types… I have no choice but to say, for him to survive under that torture was simply a miracle.”

    “尽最大的努力将他治好。”

“Use your utmost effort to treat him.”

    “这个不用您说，我们也会尽力的。这个孩子依靠自己的意志力挺过了克鲁斯的酷刑，我们又怎么忍心让他继续受苦？”

“You don’t need to remind us of that, we will do our best. This child relied on his willpower to survive Cruise’s cruelty, how could we bear to let him continue to suffer?”

    熟悉又陌生的对话，断断续续地传入尚可耳中，原本模糊的记忆逐渐清晰起来。在他出车祸变成植物人后，精神体无意中被一个系统绑定，开始穿梭于各个世界，完成任务，获得奖励。

The familiar yet unfamiliar dialogue faded in and out of his hearing, his formerly blurry memories gradually clearing up. After he was turned into a vegetable due to a car accident, his soul had been bound to a System and started to transmigrate to different worlds, completing missions and obtaining rewards.

    他记得自己已经通过了好几个世界，只是对那几个世界的记忆有些散乱，无法完整地拼接起来。这个世界的信息，也是在他清醒后一点点补全的。

He remembered that he had already completed many worlds, but his memories of those worlds were rather messy, he couldn’t make heads or tails of it.

    这是他穿越的第一个世界，如今再次进入，应该是回溯，难怪系统没有发布什么任务，因为回溯的世界没有任务限制。

This was the first world he had transmigrated to, because this was his second entrance to this world, this should be his return chance. No wonder the mission didn’t release a mission, because worlds that he returns to are not restricted by missions.

    想通之后，尚可只觉得全身舒爽，安安稳稳地闭上眼睛，又睡过去了。

After figuring that out, Shang Ke felt much more refreshed and closed his eyes, sleeping peacefully.

    接下来的事情，基本已经没有什么悬念。拉威尔将获得最终胜利，然后成为帝国的新君。唯一的危险，就是举办追悼仪式那天，会遭遇一次刺杀。

The events after that weren’t suspenseful. Ravel will obtain victory and become the new Monarch of the Empire. The only danger to him will happen during the memorial ceremony, the assassination attempt.

    “醒了？”一个高大的人影走到床边，低沉的声音中隐约透着几分关切。

“You’re awake?” A tall figure walked next to him, his deep voice carrying a hint of concern.

    尚可静静地望着他，眼神朦胧。

Shang Ke peacefully watched him, his gaze hazy.

    “你的声带受损，可能需要一段时间才能复原。”拉威尔坐在床边，语调平和道，“我们已经取得了胜利，剩下的时间，将逐一清理克鲁斯的残余势力。”

“Your vocal cords were damaged, so you would need some time to heal before you can speak.” Ravel sat by his bed, calmly speaking, “We have already acquired victory. The remaining time will be used to clear up Cruise’s remaining vestiges of power, one by one.”

    尚可向他露出一个笑容，如同风雨之后的彩虹，干净、美丽、温暖。

Shang Ke gave him a smile that gave off the feeling of a rainbow after rain, clean, beautiful and warm.

    经历诸多磨难，依然不改初心，这份坚强和乐观，让拉威尔为之动容。那天亲自将伤痕累累的他从审讯室抱出来时，他便决定照顾这个男孩，如今见到他的笑容，更坚定了这份决心。不仅因为他是乌特雷将军的儿子，更因为他的缄默和勇敢，拯救了无数义士。

Despite experiencing so much pain, his heart remained as pure as ever. His strong and happy appearance deeply moved Ravel. That day, when he had personally carried out the injured Cage from the interrogation room, he had decided to take care of this boy. Now that he could see his smile, he became even more determined. Not only because he was General Utrecht’s son, but because of his silence and bravery that saved countless loyalists.

    尚可的目光不自觉地移到拉威尔的手上，手心空空如也，并没有痣。不过他很清楚，这个男人就是他的恋人。

Shang Ke’s gaze unconsciously moved to Ravel’s hand. His palm was blank and did not hold a birthmark. But he thoroughly understood that this man was his lover.

    如前世的经历一样，拉威尔每天都会抽出3、4个小时来陪他，换药，喂饭，清洁，一手包办。

Like his previous experience, Ravel would take out three to four hours of his time to accompany him, change his bandages, feed him, clean him, he did everything.

    虽然这一世有系统的辅助，伤势没有严重到瘫痪的地步，但体内的毒素，依然让尚可吃尽苦头，每天在愈合和恶化中循环交替。好在愈合的速度比恶化的速度快，配合医生的治疗，总有一天能够恢复健康。

Although his injuries were not serious to the point of paralyzing him this time around with the System’s assistance, the poison in his body still caused him great suffering and he would alternate between healing and worsening everyday. Fortunately, his healing speed was faster than the worsening speed, plus with the help of the treatment from the doctor, there would be a day in which he would achieve full recovery. 

    尚可心中记挂着追悼仪式上的刺杀行动，每天数着时间，生怕一个疏忽，让拉威尔遇到危险。

Shang Ke kept the assassination attempt of the memorial ceremony in mind, counting down the time every day in fear of Ravel facing danger due to carelessness. 

    只顾着担心拉威尔，尚可完全忘了自己也会遇上一件糟心事。

Being so single mindedly worried about Ravel, Shang Ke completely forgot that he was also about to meet danger.

    “凯奇，好久不见。”在医院养伤的第八天，一个少年出现在他的病房中。

“Cage, long time no see.” On the eighth day of his hospitalization, a young man appeared in his room.

    盖布里，凯奇父亲的养子，一直想要取代凯奇，成为比克家族的继承人。

Gabriel, Cage’s fathers adopted son who always dreamed of replacing Cage and becoming the heir of the family.

    “看看你现在苟延残喘的样子，真是可怜。你知不知道自己已经没有几天好活了？”盖布里居高临下地望着尚可，眼中带着嘲弄。

“Take a look at you now, struggling while at death’s door. Truly pitiful. Did you know that your days are numbered?” Gabriel arrogantly looked down at Shang Ke, scorn in his eyes.

    尚可见到他后，立刻想起接下来会发生什么事。盖布里趁他生活不能自理时，特意跑来耀武扬威，还狠狠甩了他一巴掌。

When Shang Ke saw him, he immediately remembered what would happen. Gabriel would take the chance while he could not provide for himself to strut around and give him a hard slap.

    上一世因为命不久矣，所以懒得和他计较。但这一世，他八成能够活下来，所以无论如何都不能再受他那一巴掌。虽然身体骨骼还没有完全愈合，但隔挡一下还是没问题的。

In his previous time in this world, because he did not have long to live, he was too lazy to deal with him. But this time, chances are he was going to live so whatever the case, he can’t allow himself to take that slap. Although his bones weren’t completely healed, blocking a slap was still no problem.

    盖布里在宣泄了多年的怨气后，果然挥起手臂，朝他的脸用力甩过来。

After Gabriel aired out all of his grievances from the years, as expected, he raised his arm and threw all his strength into it as he aimed for his face.

    尚可知道房间中装着监控，也知道盖布里随身带着监控屏蔽，所以他以为这件事在“他”死后都不会有人发现。

Shang Ke knew that there was surveillance ongoing in the room, but he also knew Gabriel had a monitor blocker, so he thought that this event would not be found out by anyone after “his” death.

    尚可抬手挡住自己的脸部，只听“啪”的一声，骨骼发出脆响，手肘再次脱臼。

Shang Ke raised his hand to shield his face, and a crack sound followed from his bones. His elbow was dislocated again.

    比起打脸，尚可更愿意接受手肘脱臼的结果。

Shang Ke was more willing to accept a dislocated elbow than being slapped in the face.

    按照原来的发展，盖布里出过气后，很快就会离开，但这次不同，他不但没有离开，反而从衣兜里取出一个针管，针管中装着蓝色的不明液体，不用猜也知道，肯定不是什么好东西。

According to the original development, after Gabriel vented his anger, he would quickly leave. But it was different this time, he did not leave, instead, he took out a syringe from his pocket. The syringe was loaded with an unknown blue liquid, needless to say, there was no way it was anything good.

    尚可瞳孔微缩，上一世盖布里确定他会死，所以没有其他多余的行动。但这一世，只要好好调养，他极有可能恢复健康。虽然他知道盖布里不希望他活下来，但没想到他会动手杀人。

Shang Ke’s pupils shrunk. In his previous run, Gabriel had already determined that he would die so he did not bother doing anything unnecessary. But this time, as long as he was properly treated, there was an extremely high chance he would recover back to full health. Although he knew Gabriel did not wish for his survival, he did not expect him to attempt murder.

    尚可面无表情地盯着他，被子下的另一只手蓄势待发。

Shang Ke’s expressionlessly stared at him, his other hand under the blanket waiting and storing power.

    “你的命可真硬，那样的酷刑都弄不死你。”盖布里按住尚可脱臼的手臂，冷笑道，“不过没关系，现在去死也是一样的。”

“You really are hardy, even that kind of torture can’t kill you.” Gabriel held down Shang Ke’s dislocated arm and coldly smiled, “But that doesn’t matter, it’s all the same if you die now.”

    说完，他拿着针筒直直向尚可的血管扎去。

He held the syringe and stabbed toward Shang Ke’s vein.

    尚可猛地伸手，握住了盖布里的手腕，针头堪堪刺破表皮，渗出一滴鲜血。

Shang Ke suddenly reached out and grabbed Gabriel’s wrist. The syringe broke through the surface skin and a drop of blood seeped out.

    在刑讯中，尚可的四肢被击碎，即便有系统的治疗加成，七、八天时间也不可能痊愈。他几乎用尽了全身的力气，阻止盖布里将针头扎入他的血管。

During the interrogation torture, Shang Ke’s limbs had been broken. Even with the System’s treatment helping him, it was impossible for him to completely recover within seven to eight days. He had used up almost all of his strength in that action of stopping Gabriel from stabbing the syringe into his vein.

    他体内还残留着许多未知毒素，如果被盖布里毒死，恐怕连医生也找不出原因。

There were still many types of unknown poison within his body, if he was poisoned to death by Gabriel, chances are the doctor wouldn’t figure out the cause.

    “不要挣扎了，认命吧！”盖布里手上加力，针头又刺进几分。

“Don’t struggle anymore, just accept your fate!” Gabriel exerted more power and the needle was pushed in a bit farther.

    认命？他最不喜欢的就是认命！

Accept his fate? What he disliked the most was accepting his fate!

    咯吱，尚可听到了骨头裂开的声音，但依然没有松开手。他咬紧牙关，心里默默计算着时间。只需要再撑半分钟，就会有护工过来查看情况。

Creak, Shang Ke heard the sound of his bone cracking but he still did not let go. He gritted his teeth and silently counted the time in his mind. He only needed to hold on for half a minute and a worker would come over to check the situation.

    盖布里显然也意识到这一点，目光一厉，反手握住尚可的手腕，用力一扭。

Gabriel clearly also became aware of that, his eyes glinted and he reversed grip Shang Ke’s wrist and twisted.

    尚可闷哼一声，手臂断裂，无力地垂落下来。

Shang Ke groaned in pain, his arm broke and powerlessly fell down.

    眼见盖布里再次拿起针筒向他扎来，尚可翻身一滚，借助身体的冲力，往他身上撞去。

Seeing Gabriel aiming the syringe at him again, Shang Ke turned and rolled, using the power generated from the roll to ram his body into him.

    盖布里被撞得一个趔趄，倒退了几步，而尚可也因为惯性，从床上摔了下来，吊瓶翻倒，发出一阵杂乱的哐当声。

Gabriel staggered a few steps back from the blow while Shang Ke rolled down from the bed due to inertia and a jumble of clattering sound rang out.

    尚可躺在地上，感觉浑身的骨头都散架了。说好的幸福美满的回溯呢？！这种俗套的暗杀戏码还能不能好了？

Shang Ke lied on the ground, he felt as if all his bones were falling apart. Where was the promised blissful happiness?! Can this cliche assassination scene be any more cliche?

    这番响动终于引起了外面人的注意，脚步声由远及近，很快就会冲进病房。

The chaotic sound of clatter finally brought attention to the room from the people outside. Footsteps could be heard rushing toward the sickroom.

    盖布里脸色煞白，终于意识到情况不妙，计划好的秘密行动，在尚可顽强的抵抗下，变成了证据确凿的杀人未遂。

Gabriel’s face was deathly white, he finally realized that his situation was very bad. The secret plan he had made had turned into definite evidence of his attempt murder due to Shang Ke’s tenacious resistance. 

    这时，盖布里瞥见自己带来的针管正扎在尚可的手臂上，心念一动，想着反正已经暴露行迹，干脆一不做二不休，先弄死他再说！

At this moment, Gabriel caught sight of how the syringe he brought was still stuck in Shang Ke’s arm and the gears in his mind turned. Since his tracks were already exposed, then he should just finish what he set out to do. He can think about everything else after he kills him!

    想到这里，盖布里猛地向尚可扑去，按住针管，快速将毒素注入了他的体内。

Thinking to that point, Gabriel suddenly threw himself at Shang Ke and stabbed in the syringe, quickly emptying the poison into his body.

    尚可身体一僵，暗道：“不好”，垂死挣扎了半天，最后居然还是被暗算成功了？！

Shang Ke’s body went rigid, he thought to himself: “This is bad”, after struggling with all his might for so long, he finally was still schemed against successfully?!

    他不服！！！

He was unwilling to accept this!!!
