Chapter 174: Last Words
“Are you okay?” Ye Feng went over and helped Wien to sit up.
Even with his vitality, such injuries would be hard to recover from, unless appropriate healing was quickly administered.
“Cough, cough, your words sound familiar.” Wien forced out a smile: “When we first met, didn’t you say that too?”
“Do I look like I’m fine now?”
When he was near death, he became more humorous instead.
“Why are you still making jokes at such a time?” Ye Feng said anxiously, he placed his palm on Wien’s chest and started to use healing spells.
He was not good at healing, at most, he could relieve the target’s pain and let him last a longer time.
“Mm… I feel better now, it hurts less.” Wien smiled: “You really know a lot of spells, I’ve never seen this before. Are you the illegitimate son of a certain Deity?”
This was the first time he had seen a Magician who could use various elements, not to mention that Ye Feng was a strong Knight as well.
Seeing that Ye Feng was so anxious he could barely speak, Wien consoled him.
“Look at yourself, why are you more anxious than me. Just keep the healing at this level, let me die comfortably.”
During this period of time, he had already gone through many near-death situations. Additionally, because he was already quite old, he did not fear death.
Honestly, he was already tired of living.
“Is there no way to save you?” Ye Feng frowned: “Don’t you have lots of medicine, can’t any of them save your life?”
Along the way, he had been surprised by the various tools that Wien had, since he had those, he must own something that could save his life.
When one was outside, wasn’t self-preservation the most important thing?
“I do, but they can’t be used in this situation.” Wien turned his head around like he was shaking his head: “Even those medicine can only heal internal injuries, there is a gaping hole in my chest now, what can my medicine do? In this situation, all I can do is delay my death and hold onto my last breath.”
“Then hurry up and use it.” Ye Feng was speechless.
“What’s the point?” Wien sighed and said: “Using the medicine is a waste now, I’d rather leave it to you.”
“With your healing magic, I can still live for some time. At least, I won’t die before I finish saying my last words. This is why I can still chat casually with you now.”
As long as Ye Feng continued to use his healing, Wien would not die just yet, he could still live for around fifteen minutes.
The vitality of a Silver Knight was simply immense.
“If you act like this, I won’t heal you anymore.” Ye Feng was speechless, why was Wien so talkative now.
Was he trying to speak as much as he could to make up for his regrets in life?
“That’s fine too, I’ll die soon anyway.” Wien laughed: “I have enough time to finish my words, in any case, you were the one who saved my life back then, right?”
“It seems that I am fated to die, whatever you do will only delay the inevitable.”
Earlier, it was really his bad luck. Although Ye Feng’s earth walls were created slower because he was further away, he should have been able to block the arrows.
After all, Ye Feng’s spells did not need incantations, his own earth walls and the ones around Wien were raised at the same time.
But Wien was just too far away, the earth walls appeared right after the arrows landed on his body.
Wien’s words were very clear, Ye Feng did not know how to react to it.
“Cough, alright, it is time to leave my will.” Wien’s smile vanished as he wiped his lips and said in a low tone: “My full name is Wien Caesar, I am quite a character at my place. Your strength is close to mine, you should be able to tell that I am a Silver Knight.”
Ye Feng nodded. A Silver Knight who was able to use low tier magic was a formidable person even if he went to the Capital City.
“Did you hear my conversation with those people? I ended up like this because of my disciple.” Wien sighed as pain could be seen on his face: “He betrayed me because I obtained a treasure. Who could have expected that the disciple I raised from a young age actually chose to poison me because of this?”
“In any case, won’t my treasure end up with him after I die anyway? I raised him like my own child, who could have expected this to happen?”
Saying so, Wien coughed because he was angry and could not catch his breath.
“The poison was not severe so I easily cured it. But during that period, he heavily injured me, I only managed to escape with difficulty.”
“Heh, if not for him wanting to find out the location of my treasure, he would have poisoned me to death. Those pursuers were just mercenaries that he hired, after knowing about this situation, they were quite unwilling to kill me. Otherwise, I would have died already.”
“But thankfully, because of you, I managed to survive. Sigh, at the very least, I managed to live until now, right?”
Wien looked at Ye Feng and took out a jewel that was sparkling with lightning.
“This is called the heart of lightning, it is the treasure that my disciple wants.” Wien laughed: “I managed to enter the blood fog using it, heh, it will be yours now.”
“No need to reject me, I can only give it to you now. I don’t want it to join me in my grave.”
Saying so, he placed the heart of lightning into the palm of the arm that Ye Feng used to cast his spell.
“Alright, you can stop healing me. After taking this, remember to take revenge for me.” Wien smiled in a self-deprecating manner: “I wanted to raise my strength to go back and take revenge personally, but now, I can only rely on you.”
Although he said he wanted to take revenge, he was quite conflicted internally. The child that he raised from a young age betrayed him, he felt that life was meaningless now.
“Don’t worry.” Ye Feng looked at the heart of lightning and pursed his lips.
“I trust you.” Wien said weakly and stopped controlling his vitality, slowly shutting his eyes.
Although he did not suicide, under such heavy injuries, the moment he gave up on surviving, his life quickly ended.
Ye Feng placed Wien aside and kept the heart of lightning, he then started to control the earth elements.
This place was full of rocks, he could not dig a grave. Thus, he had to use earth elements to barely create a grave himself.
“I will take revenge for you.” Ye Feng buried Wien and muttered to himself.
Next, he turned around and left resolutely.
