Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 3329

In a daze, Nathan had no idea how long he had been asleep. Suddenly, he heard the crisp chirping of birds near his ear, and his eyes opened immediately. Upon opening his eyes, he found the light to be exceptionally glaring. After much difficulty, he gradually adapted to it. It was then that he only realized he was lying in a ward. To his delight, the sun shone brightly outside the window, and two sparrows were perched on a tree branch, chirping incessantly.

Has Eternal Darkness passed, and the light fell again?

Nathan quickly sat up from the bed and walked to the window with his patient's gown on. Gazing at the long-lost sunlight, his heart was filled with joy as he muttered to himself, “Indeed, Dark Canopy is finally over. The earth can finally see daylight again. That's wonderful.” After saying that, he only remembered the reason for his injury, and his expression darkened instantly. He hurried to the mirror and began examining his body.

In the mirror, it was still the familiar self. However, there was also a hint of unfamiliarity, as if something was different somewhere. He hurriedly checked his teeth and found no vampire fangs. Then he looked at his eyes, which were not the crimson red of a vampire either.

I clearly remember that before I passed out, that jerk Gregg injected a drop of ancestral blood into my body, causing me to be poisoned by the blood virus. Why is it that I haven't turned into a vampire like Sevan? Could it be that the doctors successfully removed the blood virus from my body when I was unconscious?

Nathan carefully examined himself in the mirror, trying to find a clue. At last, he discovered why he felt both familiar and unfamiliar with his reflection in the mirror.

It turned out that his skin had become fairer than before. Throughout his many years in the military, he had always been in healthy tanned skin. However, his complexion had become much fairer, and he seemed to look even more handsome. Although Nathan did not like the phrase “handsome,” he indeed appeared somewhat more handsome while looking at himself in the mirror at the moment.

What's going on?

Just as Nathan felt extremely puzzled, footsteps could be heard coming from the corridor outside the ward. He could also hear someone talking, and it was Colin's voice. It seemed Colin was rebuking the doctor as he said, “You've said several times that Chief Cross' condition has returned to normal and that he could gain consciousness at any moment. But now it's been a full week, a whole week already. He remains unconscious.”
