Chapter 3898 Down
?"What is happening?" asked Taev in alarm as I started spasming in, with tears appearing on my skin.
Black blood started to come out of them. He tried to stop, but failed repeatedly.
"The curse; it was twin-layered. The dangerous, was hidden beneath the original," he answered, without looking at me.
Utter bulls.h.i.+t!
While he is acting like a savior, he is. .h.i.tting the curses repeatedly. Making things worse and worse for several seconds before trying to fix it.
"Please, help him Healer Korud. I can"t bear to lose, Noah," said Taev in distress.
I have to say, her acting is quite good. Better than the b.a.s.t.a.r.d trying to heal me.
For a few minutes, his method didn"t work, but soon, it started to and spasming had slowed down, and so was the black blood.
Though the wounds aren"t healing.
Another minute pa.s.sed, and he brought me out of the water and took me to my room.
"I was barely able to stabilize his condition, but it is a temporary measure. If something isn"t done, he will not survive the night," said Korud.
"Can you do something? We are willing to pay any price to heal him," said Taev worriedly.
To that, he shook his head.
"I can not. n.o.body in the town could. The only person who could heal him is the healer Garros," he said and walked out of the door with Taev following behind him.
"d.a.m.n!" I cursed.
I had expected many things, but not that. I may not have expected it, but I have prepared for it and reacted with appropriate measures.
Now, I have confirmed he is a cultist or at least a terrible healer.
I have to see who else is related. The mission was to neutralize all the cultists. If I kill one, the new ones will pop within months.
I had to kill every cultist in the city, till not a single one remained.
I tracked him with my seed from the core. Listening to his conversation with Garros. There is nothing suspicious about it.
However, what is suspicious is how he is talking with him through the soul sense.
Like us, the conversation from the mouth is a fa?ade. The real one is happening in the mind.
Click!
Over half an hour pa.s.sed when the door clicked open. Korud came in with Garros. Taev and Magli followed behind them.
"Once again, I am stating the danger of the method, I am proposing. If it didn"t work, you won"t even have a body to bury," said Garros to the two.
"What would do with the body, if our friend is dead?" asked Magli with a shake of his head.
"We agree with the treatment Healer Garros. We will not blame you if you were not able to save Noah," said Taev.
The old man nodded and raised me from the bed.
Click!
Second later, we were out of the door, but it was not the door that led to the hot spring, but the one that we had come through.
A few seconds later, he opened another door. This door is empty, except for the teleportation gate, in the middle of it.
The old man walked through it, taking me with him, with the other following behind.
Step!
Everything turned dark for a second before it brightened, and I saw the hot spring, within the snowy glad mountain.
"This is xelog spring; the strongest hot spring. The water of it is strong enough to kill normal Sky Sovereign," said Korud.
The treatment method Garros proposed is simple. He is going to use his powerful energy from the lake, to deal with the powerful curse inside me.
It will either kill me or save me.
"Everywhere stay back; the spring is very dangerous," cautioned Garros and took me toward the spring.
Soon we reached it, and the old man reinforced the energy layer around me before summoning, his armor and stepping into the spring.
A moment later, he placed me inside it.
The old man didn"t lie; this place is extremely dangerous. It would kill me within seconds if I didn"t activate my armor quickly enough.
However, I do not fear it and instead want to take the energy.
It is far stronger than the other springs and would benefit me a lot tremendously.
The old man closed his eyes, and I felt them gather energies. He gathered only a fraction and sent me inside.
I have seen the ease with which he did and his control over it. I could easily tell he could control tens of times more than it.
He begins to erase the curse with it like an eraser erases the words in the book, but eraser is nail size while the writing is size of hill.
He could have easily done it in one fell swoop, but he didn"t want to.
I really want to curse the old b.a.s.t.a.r.d, but it is also helping me see its abilities. They are quite good, enough to be a healer in Prime organization.
Though we aren"t going to accept a cultist.
A minute pa.s.sed, and then another as the sham continued. I acted appropriately, not to arouse any suspicion.
I feel like, I am very close. I need to be patient and I will get the result.
If it wasn"t that, I wouldn"t have waited and killed these b.a.s.t.a.r.ds. We could easily do that; even the old man who is pretty powerful isn"t much challenge to me.
Hun!
I was thinking that when Garros strengthened the energy covering me and pushed me down hard.
Bang!
At the same time, another body appeared in my place and exploded into the mist of blood and core, which was quickly vaporized by the power of the spring.
"No!" I could hear the scream from Taev and she tried to come toward me, but stopped my magli.
I had sent them a message about what was happening. To others, it might be difficult, but not for me.
Still, I used the method, with forbidden power, to send the message.
I don"t want it to be obvious; I used the method, so they could see the structure and not get too suspicious by it.
