Chapter 78: Chapter 78 Healing Wounds
Translator: 549690339
It was clear.
The person who made these smooth crawling noises was Baker Marcellus, who has already completed the ‘Great Plan.’
He was hunting for the injured Silist who had fled.
However.
The sounds of lurking nearby faded and disappeared after a while.
“The enemy hasn’t been fused with the life outside the city for long enough, it’s not particularly stable, and its sensing is insufficient… As soon as it stabilizes, it will soon find us… We have to hurry… Ah-Hmm-”
Knight Silist, who has always been tough and highly patient, was in such pain that she cried out… but, because she couldn’t make much noise, she tried to suppress it.
Han Dong, who was on the side, felt this was rather strange.
As a member of the [Sacred Teachings Army], Silist has certain medical abilities, such as ‘Ordinary Holy Light Technique,’ which can treat ordinary injuries.
However, for the injuries she sustained now, she had no way to manage them.
The ‘serious injury’ on her waist and abdomen required professional treatment by a healing knight, and the use of various precision instruments… If mishandled, various side effects could occur.
Han Dong, wearing the Crow Eye-protection goggles, looked at Silist’s wound.
Clusters of tentacles as thick as fingers were growing on the surface of the wound, seemingly trying to enter her body.
Most of Silist’s energy was directed towards the wound, preventing the invasion of these tentacles.
Because the tentacles were continuously wriggling on the surface, the wound was constantly widening, prolonging the time was of no benefit to Silist.
“Won’t Holy Water work?” Han Dong asked.
“No, this is not an ordinary contaminant, these tentacles have reached a certain strength… It’s not the simple pollutant you encounter in the inner city, this is a real higher lifeform.
These tentacles would react violently with holy water, and in a short time, not only would it not annihilate it, but it would stimulate it to go wild, tear the wound, and even infiltrate my body.
Forget about all that, hurry up and help me up.”
Han Dong did not move, but whispered: “How likely do you think it is that I help you up and get discovered?”
“About 50%…”
“Moreover, your sister Fiya and two other teammates are currently fighting with a fused contaminant in a special scenario … Even if we could escape, once they catch up to us! Fiya and the others would be in danger.”
Upon hearing what Han Dong said, Silist’s expression changed.
Because of the influence of the evil formation, information couldn’t be transmitted out from the underground area. Only by going above ground could the Knight Regiment be notified… but as Han Dong warned, if Marcellus Baker was unwittingly led above ground, it would be a sticky situation
The only solution was to kill the[Fallen Baker]who hadn’t completely adapted to his body in these underground caves.
“If you, Knight Silist, don’t mind… I have a way to eradicate the contaminants on your wound.”
“You? A kid who has just been assigned two stars in [Mysticism]? Don’t joke… If you disturb this thing and it penetrates into my body, destroying an organ, you would be indirectly murdering a knight.’
Silist didn’t take Han Dong’s words seriously at all.
“Hm…”
Han Dong took a deep breath.
Taking advantage of the fact that Silist was not paying attention, he fully released the power of the “Ghoul Arm”, turned and forced her onto the ground!
As mentioned before, due to her waist and abdominal injuries, Silist concentrated a significant amount of energy on her wound and dared not make too much movement… She just glared angrily at Han Dong, who was pressing her down.
“What are you doing!
Since explanations were useless, Han Dong got straight to work.
He forcefully placed his right hand directly onto Silist’s wound.
He deliberately ‘came into close contact’ with those strange tentacles.
Suddenly, an unexpected situation occurred.
The minor tentacles didn’t stand a chance against the counter-absorption exerted from Han Dong’s hand. The contamination disappeared in an instant, and the pressure on Silist vanished.
With a forceful contraction of his waist and abdomen, Han Dong was abruptly overturned, his fist hanging in mid-air… glaring furiously at the disrespectful Apprentice Knight.
If this punch came down.
Ninety percent of the time, Han Dong would die… even after his head was smashed, a large hole would be left on the ground.
The principles of the [Order of Holy Knights] and the aristocratic education he had received since childhood had shaped a special self-esteem within Silist.
The humiliation that came from being pinned down by an apprentice knight who was one-tenth her strength was stabbing her self-esteem… and, Han Dong’s abilities, were questionable!
“If I didn’t force myself to do this, I wouldn’t have had the chance to ‘heal’ you…”
Han Dong’s statement left her speechless for a moment.
Taking the initiative to heal her at least shows that although Han Dong’s abilities are problematic, he is definitively not an enemy, otherwise, he would have directly attacked just now or made a loud noise to attract the Fallen Bei.
After about ten seconds of careful thinking, Silist withdraws her fist, stabilizing her feelings, she pulls Han Dong up and continues to stay hidden in the shadow.
Because she has completely cleared the contamination, Silist takes out a high-efficiency healing potion from her waist and applies it to the wound on her waist and abdomen.
Under the stimulation of the medicine, accelerated cell division occurred, and the newly proliferated flesh connected by itself, sealing and repairing the wound.
Silist said solemnly:
“You know! The abilities you just demonstrated could have you thrown into the Supreme Parliamentary Court.
No matter how you explain, whether you are human or not. You will be reduced to an experimental subject for the rest of your life, living a fate worse than death. ”
“I know… what’s more, I know that if I hadn’t done so, we could both end up dead here.”
Han Dong’s response left Silist speechless.
The female knight’s crystal-like eyes stared at Han Dong closely… considering whether to cooperate with this apprentice knight.
Time is running out.
Silist gripped Han Dong’s shoulder and pulled him even closer, so close that their bodies were touching (having been injured, Silist was temporarily out of her light armor and currently in tight-fitting breast armor).
A unique fragrance enters Han Dong’s nostrils.
It’s not perfume, but Silist’s own scent… this makes Han Dong feel refreshed and invigorated.
Silist sternly said: “Kid! I need to confirm your identity, tell me your tutor and the places you usually practice.”
Han Dong hands over his apprentice knight’s identity card and says:
“First Mentor – Pasha Buhart, Second Mentor – Mr. Black White. On normal days, I usually study Plague studies in the [Old Sewers].”
“Crow Prophet! ! ”
When Silist hears the name of Mr. Black White, she is startled!
Although they were in different knights’ regiments, she had heard of Mr. Black White’s name… and even held a sense of reverence for him internally. “Fine… Next, we’ll work together to kill the fallen who have fused with life outside the city via the sacrifice ceremony.
I will cast various holy light blessings on you, significantly reducing the effects of the contamination on you.
And all you have to do is to remove these things from me in time when I’m under attack by the tentacles.”
“That… ” Han Dong, who was too close to Silist, felt a bit ‘pressured’.
After all, given Han Dong’s poor physical condition and thirty years of single life experience, feeling pressured was normal.
“Speak.”
“I… I don’t need blessing, these contaminants should be useless to me, you save the energy to deal with the fallen.”
Silist once again widened her eyes, observing this two-star mystic apprentice at close range.
Her thoughts were slightly complicated.
She could only confirm that Han Dong was not allied with the fallen, otherwise, she would be dead by now.
As for what exactly this two-star mystic apprentice is, she temporarily could not understand..
