Noland Lee closed his mind to the Dusk Giant Soul-casting Technique and suddenly felt a churning sensation in his stomach, followed by nausea and retching.
He knew that he had triggered the second effect of “Dusk Sleep” – “Nausea.”
According to the panel information of “Dusk Sleep,” at the same time tomorrow, he would trigger the third effect – “Photophobia.”
The situation would definitely be worse than today.
Noland Lee gathered his thoughts, trying hard to suppress the urge to vomit, and lifted his hand to pull the rope on the wall.
The bell rang at the nurse’s station at the end of the corridor.
Footsteps came closer, and soon they arrived at his door.
The person who stepped in was not Melinda, Corporal Mars’ partner, but another slightly older and more voluptuous female nurse.
She had a sharp chin, melon-seed face, delicate skin, and soft hair, more mature and graceful than Melinda. She could be described as a tender branch bearing fruitful results.
She pushed the trolley into the room, stopped, and stared at Noland Lee for a few seconds, as if she was carefully observing him before asking:
“Do you feel nauseous in your stomach, want to vomit, but there’s nothing in your stomach to throw up?”
At this moment, Noland Lee was enduring the gastrointestinal discomfort and couldn’t speak, so he could only nod in response.
“Don’t worry, it’s normal.”
The female nurse parked the trolley, picked up the notebook on the bedside, and glanced at the injection information.
. Noland Lee Jarvis, a Private Second Class in the Alvin Army, correct injection information. I’m Sully. Before you leave this room, I’ll come here every day at this time to check on your condition.”
Sully briefly introduced herself and went back to the trolley to prepare the elixirs.
“Your physical examination report has come out. Your cardiopulmonary function score is slightly below average. Therefore, you will likely spend about 5 to 6 days with side effects. However, this is not absolute. The actual number of days may be extended, depending on how you slept last night.”
Noland Lee raised his eyebrows, curious.
Why did it depend on how he slept last night?
Is it related to “Twilight Dreams”?
Sully was preparing the potions and didn’t see Noland Lee’s expression.
He couldn’t ask any questions because he couldn’t speak.
Division Intelligence Unit Three is highly concerned about the injection of strengthening potions.
After every strengthening potion injection, the person must cooperate with a nurse for a continuous investigation lasting several days.
This investigation starts on Day One after the injection and lasts until the side effects disappear.
This is the basic knowledge that Noland Lee had learned from Corporal Mars.
He thought that Melinda would handle this, but why was there a voluptuous nurse instead? And she seemed to be older than him…
Noland Lee was puzzled.
Sully prepared the elixirs, handed them to Noland Lee to drink, and then took out a notebook and asked while writing:
“Did you have any dreams after you fell asleep yesterday?”
The elixir moistened Noland Lee’s throat, temporarily suppressing the discomfort in his stomach.
Noland Lee held his stomach, lifted his head, and asked with a puzzled expression:
“Dreams?”
Perhaps his good looks had an effect; Sully looked at his handsome face and seemed a little dazed before saying:
“…Yes, dreams. The strengthening potion has a sedative component, so you quickly fall asleep.”
Sully stretched out her finger and circled it near her head:
“While you’re asleep, the mutagenic component in the strengthening potion starts to work, affecting your brain activity and causing you to dream continuously.”
Noland Lee slowly nodded:
“I did have a strange dream.”
Sully wrote down a few notes on the notebook and looked at Noland Lee again with her beautiful eyes:
“Do you still remember the scene in your dream?”
Noland Lee lowered his head, looking at the bed sheet, his eyes flashing rapidly:
“The scenes in the dream…hiss…l can’t quite recall. What I remember most clearly is myself trapped in a room with no light, continuously groping for the door and the switch to turn on the light.”
While Sully was recording notes, she said:
“Well, it’s a normal dream. Basically every soldier who receives a strengthening potion injection has this experience. It should be caused by insufficient brain activity while dreaming… Are there any other dreams? Jarvis, think carefully.” Noland Lee lifted his head, looking confused, and shook his head:
“No, that’s all I remember. However, it seemed that just before I woke up, I saw a strong light. But I can’t tell if that light was in my dream or came through the window.”
Sully looked disappointed:
“What a pity, Jarvis. The effect of the strengthening potion on you may be very limited. According to your dream, the side effects will only last for five days.” Dreams…
Sully mentioned dreams, so Division Intelligence Unit Three indeed knows about the existence of “Twilight Dreams” and cares about it a lot…
Noland Lee pretended not to understand and asked:
“Why do you say that?”
Sully looked outside the room, seeing no one passing by, and whispered:
“The mutagenic component stimulates your brain and causes you to dream. The level of realism and content of the dream is related to the absorbed dose of the mutagenic component. The more you absorb, the clearer the dream.
“On the other hand, it would be like you, sleeping hazily all night, and only when you’re about to wake up and your body has absorbed enough mutagenic component, the dream becomes clearer..
