"I can save him!"
Although it was only four simple words, the masked girl's voice was filled with determination, and even a hint of relief.
The Wine Master had read many people, and could easily read the change in her mood.
"Who are you?" The Wine Master asked softly.
The girl rose to her feet, and with a wave of her hand removed a necklace from around her neck. It glowed with a faint yellow light.
She handed the necklace to the Wine Master, then removed a similar necklace from around Lan Jue's neck. She handed it to the Wine Master as well.
No explanation was as powerful and direct as evidence.
The Wine Master's eyes flickered with a faint silver light. The two Soulcaller stones in his hands began to glow with a rich yellow light.
"Why are you wearing a mask?" The Wine Master handed the stones back to the girl.
The girl put one on herself, then placed the other around Lan Jue's neck.
"Because I don't want him to know it was me who saved him.
I only have one condition, and that is for you to pretend you've never seen me before.
After I'm done, I'll leave immediately. "The girl spoke in a low voice. Although she tried to keep her voice low, it was still pleasant to the ear.
The surprise in the Wine Master's eyes only deepened. He opened his mouth to speak, but the Doctor, who had recovered some of his strength, spoke up. "What I'm more curious about is, what makes you think you can cure him?
I don't believe there's anyone better than me in this world. "
The girl paused, then gently shook her head. "I'm not a doctor, and I don't know how to cure people.
My method of treatment can only be used on him alone.
I don't know what happened to him, or why he's so weak now.
His body is in such a terrible state, but with his current condition, I am confident that I can cure him. "
The Doctor frowned. "I don't believe you.
We can't hand him over to you.
Even if you can prove your relationship with him, you can't do it unless he wakes up and says it himself.
Otherwise, we can't let you treat him.
We have to make sure he's safe. "
The girl was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke up. "He's in a very difficult situation. We have to start immediately.
Please don't stop me. "
The Wine Master spoke again. "You can treat him, but we need to know.
Your method of treatment.
At the same time, you have to prove that you mean no harm. "
The girl stared blankly for a moment. After thinking for a moment, she said, "I can release all of my defenses and ask Your Majesty to send a wisp of your divine sense into my energy core.
Once I have malicious intent, you will definitely be able to discover it immediately and destroy me without any complaints.
As for my treatment method, I believe that I don't need to prove anything in this situation.
You'll understand when you see it later. "
"Release the energy core?" The doctor was shocked, and the way he looked at the girl suddenly became much friendlier.
He was well aware of what it meant for an Adept to open up his energy core to an outsider. It was tantamount to completely handing over his life to the other party.
The energy core was the most important core of a metahuman.
Through the energy core, he could sense all the energy and mental changes of an Adept.
Just as the girl had said, if she had any thoughts that were detrimental to Lan Jue, she would definitely be punished.
Then, the first to be destroyed would be herself.
"Alright.
Let's begin. "The Wine Master didn't hesitate this time.
The girl bowed to the Wine Master, and lifted a hand to her forehead. Her sky-blue eyes began to change in a strange way.
In the depths of her clear eyes, there seemed to be a faint mist surging.
The faint white mist quickly dyed her bright eyes white.
Pure as snow, sparkling and translucent.
But her pupils were no longer visible.
On her forehead.
Slowly, a snowflake-like imprint appeared. A gentle ripple of energy began to emanate from the girl.
"Energy concealment!" The Doctor's eyes lit up.
It must be known that even with his cultivation, he had not been able to tell that this young girl had a special ability. However, at this moment, the energy ripples on her body were rising at an alarming rate. There could only be one explanation for this, and that was that she had used a special concealment technique to hide her special ability, making others think that she was just an ordinary person.
The snowflake-like imprint on her forehead began to spin, like a white vortex. Slowly, the center of the vortex began to open, and a thick chill began to emanate from the girl's body. It wasn't just physical, it was spiritual.
That kind of clear and cold feeling caused the doctor to shiver. His entire spirit seemed to be refreshed and the tiredness he felt earlier also lessened a little.
What kind of Discipline was this …
At the center of the opened snowflake, a strange crystal core that was in the shape of a six-petal snowflake appeared indistinctly.
It wasn't white, but transparent, like ice. It wasn't large, but it was exceptionally clean, without a speck of impurity.
"What a pure Core."
The Wine Master sighed in admiration. His eyes flashed, and a thin thread of silver shot out from his fingers. It burrowed into the crystal clear Core. Instantly, the Core's translucent body was tinged with a faint silver light.
The girl's body trembled, but quickly returned to normal. The snowflake-like imprint on her forehead closed back up.
She didn't say anything more. She turned, and knelt down beside Lan Jue. Then, gently, she leaned over him. She allowed her body to overlap with his.
Looking at his pale, bloodless face from such a close distance, she sighed softly. "My enemy, my enemy!"
She lowered her head, and gently kissed him on the lips. A faint, white energy began to emanate from the snowflake-like imprint between her eyebrows.
The white energy was as thin as silk, and floated in the air. It circled gently, and gradually became more solid.
Soon it was nothing more than a white thread. It quietly coiled around her and Lan Jue, circling back and forth.
The Doctor carefully watched the girl's every move. When he saw her willing to open her Core, he knew she wouldn't harm Lan Jue. But at the same time, he couldn't believe that she could. Even with his abilities, he couldn't cure Lan Jue. How could she?
He was a doctor on Skyfire Avenue, and he was confident in his abilities.
He wanted to see for himself how this girl could cure the Jewel Master!
The silver light in the Wine Master's eyes continued to flicker. He felt for every pulse of energy from the girl's Core, both psychic and spiritual. He didn't want to disturb her treatment of Lan Jue.
If he felt something was wrong, he wouldn't hesitate to take action.
As a Paragon, even if it was only a sliver of his will, he was confident he could destroy her or teleport her far away if she tried to do anything untoward.
The mecha squads that had surrounded the area had quietly retreated under Mo Yu's orders. They spread out and continued their vigilance.
They were told to stay where they were and await all orders from the Spacetime Scepter Hegemon.
He also received the latest updates through the military's internal communications platform.
Several hours had passed, and most of the monsters on Taihua had been destroyed. Only a small number remained, and it would only take a little more time before they were dealt with.
The statistics were out. The catastrophe that had befallen planet Taihua had been so sudden that the number of travelers on the planet at the time was close to saturation.
In order to preserve the planet's environment, the Eastern Alliance had decreed that no more than a million travelers could be accommodated at any one time. That meant that there were a million travelers, soldiers, and service personnel on the planet at the time.
This time, it could be said that they had suffered heavy losses. According to the known data, more than 150,000 tourists had disappeared. At the same time, there were 3,600 soldiers who would forever remain on this land.
In the annals of Eastern Alliance history, this was one of the worst tragedies.
However, based on the data analysis, according to the situation on Taihua at the time, the number of people who could have been evacuated should have been less than half.
In other words, the death toll was more than half a million.
A hundred and fifty thousand was a frightening number, but compared to half a million it was a far cry.
In the last moments of the disaster, the satellites had captured images of a fierce battle on the ocean's surface. The gray fog that had enveloped Taihua had been parted by a sudden gust of wind, and the satellites had been able to see what was happening below.
What could be seen was a battle between three figures and a colossal creature.
The power behind it was comparable to an expeditionary battleship.
Mo Yu knew very well what this data meant. This was because the location where the battle had erupted was the closest point to the continent, which was the location right in front of him.
Without question, it was the Cosmagus who had saved the lives of hundreds of thousands of travelers!
It was he who had protected Taihua, keeping the losses to a minimum.
Mo Yu's blood boiled at the thought.
To stand guard for the Great Protector was the greatest honor of his life.
White threads of energy wrapped around Lan Jue and the young woman like a cocoon. The white threads continued to encircle them, and as time went on they formed a thin barrier around them. Their bodies grew more and more indistinct.
From beginning to end, the young woman hadn't moved an inch. The Wine Master could sense that she was using the most gentle method possible. She was injecting her energy into Lan Jue's body, mouth to mouth.
The healing has begun!
What Discipline do you think she's using?!
With such an exciting plot, shouldn't everyone give more tickets to the movie?
