Chapter 555

"Ah, ah!" The poisoned mercenary convulsed and panted . He puffed out faint green vapor with every breath .

The night wind spread the vapor to all directions .

"Move, move out!" mercenary leader Miro yelled . "This vapor is poisonous!"

Link watched this with shock from afar . Such toxic poison . Not only is it incurable, but it also seems to have some spirit . It turns the victim's body into a new poison database to create new toxins . You'll die with just a bit of poison . If the people around the poisoned are ordinary, the entire camp will probably be wiped out .

These thoughts flashed past Link's mind . He used his mind to quietly cast the Spatial Folding spell .

Instantly, the s.p.a.ce around the poisoned mercenary stretched and folded . With every fold, the poison was sucked deeper into s.p.a.ce . Then it was broken down into harmless elements by a Spatial Rend so that the poison couldn't spread .

To the surrounding mercenaries, they only saw the poison spread through the air and then just disappear for some reason .

They obviously wouldn't think of something as complicated as Spatial Folding . They would just think that the poison had dissipated and wasn't a threat anymore .

This movement had woken up the rest in the caravan . Many people crowded around, staring in fear at the poisoned mercenary, convulsing and screaming by the campfire .

"What's wrong with him?"

"Is he going to die?"

"Why do I think that he's survived?"

"Don't you think that he's looking more and more like that Beastman?"

There were various comments, but the volume wasn't high . Still, the feeling of fear spread throughout the camp .

The campfire wavered and flickered . The night wind whistled across the plains . Occasionally, there would be the chilling howls of wolves . The entire atmosphere turned eerie .

Under this fear and confusion, the poisoned mercenary suddenly stopped shaking . Cracking, his joints snapped into place, and he slowly stood up .

By now, other than his body type, he looked completely like the Beastman . He seemingly wasn't used to his body yet . His joints twisted around, cracking loudly .

"K-kill him!" Arda, third in command of the mercenaries, yelled . "Shoot him!"

The archers had been ready for a long time . Hearing Arda's orders now, they released their arrows without hesitation .

Whoosh, whoosh, whoos.h.!.+ The poisoned mercenary's head was shot through with six arrows . He was also forced to the ground by the momentum of the arrows .

Huff . He fell onto the ground and panted heavily . His body kept twisting unnaturally . After struggling for five or six minutes, he finally fell quiet . However, he wasn't completely dead yet . His limbs would jerk every now and then .

The merchants all held their breaths at this scene . They didn't dare breathe loudly lest their actions wake up this strange creature .

Sometime later, someone's eyes moved on to leader Miro and the second in command . At dusk, they had been the two who killed the Beastman with their own hands . They'd been hurt and poisoned . Their skin was green right now . They might turn into that strange mercenary soon .

Slowly, a second and third person turned to look . Finally, everyone was staring at the two .

The mercenary beside Miro retreated subconsciously, but leader Miro grabbed him . "It's useless, Eyre . We're dying tonight . "

A Level-4 Warrior, Eyre was the second strongest in the group . It was a loss today .

Miro sighed and took out the sword at his waist . He tossed it at Arda, saying, "Arda, this group is yours now . "

"Leader!" Arda grasped the sword with his hands and fell to his knees . "There's still hope before we get to the end . We need you!"

Miro had reached his current status by gaining their loyalty and affection . He was also very talented . It wasn't easy to make a name for oneself in the Golden Plains ruled by the Beastmen .

Seeing that their leader was poisoned and was willing to die, the mercenaries all fell silent . The surrounding merchants were quiet too .

The silence lasted for some seconds before someone yelled, "Stop hesitating! There's no cure . "

"Kill him! The poison will act up soon, and it'll be more painful!" someone else yelled .

"He already gave up . Do it now!"

The people were all affected by fear of the unknown . They just wanted to get rid of the threat and couldn't be bothered by the feelings of the victims .

Many mercenaries grew furious . They took money to kill for others, but this time, they had to kill their leader . He'd also given up on fighting . Faced with this situation, the mercenaries all felt that their future was hopeless . They couldn't do it .

And now, these regular people were being selfish and didn't even treat them like people . Anger burned inside of many mercenaries . They wished they could turn their weapons and kill the people who were shouting .

Just as the mercenaries and merchants were at a stalemate, a girl jumped out from the shadows . "No, why should we give up?" she cried . "There must be hope!"

It was Shallie . Behind her, Olan was shocked and caught by surprise .

Shallie strode to the campfire, clenching her fists . Her face was red due to fear and nerves . She trembled too . "And you all, Leader Miro was poisoned while trying to protect us . Now, he's like this, but instead of trying to help him, you just want him to die, so he doesn't affect you . You're all cowards! Selfis.h.!.+"

The merchants lost their temper .

"Girl, what do you know?!" an unknown person yelled from the crowd .

"Shallie, shut up and get back here!" That was Olan .

"Olan, watch your daughter!"

That was the head of the Red Earth Firm . Middle-aged, slightly fat and tall, he looked authoritative . Walking out of the crowd, he gazed at the poisoned mercenary leader .

"Miro, I'm sorry . After you die, I will double your payment . "

"Thank you . " Miro nodded . With that, he closed his eyes, awaiting death .

Shallie was still by the campfire . Looking at Miro, she asked, "Why are you giving up? You're so powerful . "

"Little girl, thank you for your good intentions, but I'm not powerful at all . " Miro chuckled bitterly .

"How? Isn't it just poison?" Shallie said, not giving up . "Every poison has an antidote . Why don't we try something else—"

Before she could finish, Olan burst out from the crowd and grabbed her back .

Even as she was being pulled, Shallie struggled and cried, "There's so many of us, but no one has a solution? Miro is such a good man . He was poisoned to save us . Are you just going to watch him die?"

She was right, and many people felt uncomfortable at these words . But the truth was, everyone was helpless against this strange poison .

Nothing could be said now . Miro looked at Arda . "Do it now so I won't die so horribly . "

Arda clenched his jaw, tears forming in his eyes . After a moment, he grabbed a bow from another mercenary . Knocking the arrow, he slowly pulled the bow back, aiming it at Miro .

Link watched this entire thing from his carriage . In the crowd of ordinary folks, he saw Miro's wisdom and Shalie's bravery . It was like two stars appearing in the dark sky .

Humans may be mostly unaccomplished and filled with disgraceful people . However, one or two pearls would always be found in the sand .

Most of the time, pearls would only s.h.i.+ne once . Then, they would be a.s.similated by the sand around them, or be crushed into powder by life . The people couldn't protect the pearls .

However, it was different this time because Link was there .

No antidote could get rid of the poison . Link didn't have spells for that either, but this didn't mean he was powerless . He still had the game system and 700 Omni points .

He hadn't bought spells in a long while, so he almost forgot about this feature .

Seeing that Arda was about to shoot, Link quickly started buying spell cards . His eyes flew past all the s.h.i.+ning cards . Finally, they stopped on one surrounded by countless faint green runes .

Natural Spell: Wild Windstorm

Wild Windstorm

Legendary Natural Spell (Level depends on the spellcaster's level)

Cost: (10 to 5000) Depends on the target's physique . The stronger they are, the higher the cost .

Effect: Summon the source energy that is tainted in the target's body . Strengthen it and drive it out . This spell can eradicate the contamination done by curses and poison .

(Note: The windstorm has arrived and will grow wildly . )

This was a very powerful dispelling spell . Its theory was different from most spells of this type . Instead of targeting the poison itself, it strengthened the target's vitality until they could drive out the poison naturally .

It was because of this principle that it could be traceless . After using, the poisoned would gradually recover by himself . However, it could dispel practically all poisons and curses in Firuman!

Screech . On the other side, Arda was pulling his bow back to shoot the arrow . At that time, the sky suddenly lit up . Silver light appeared above Miro and Eyre . Like moonlight, the light shone down and poured into the two mercenaries .

Under the "moonlight," they looked divine and G.o.dly .

Soon after, the greenness of their faces faded . Their eyes that had been turning black instantly returned to normal .

Anyone could see that they were okay now .

The crowd was in an uproar . A white later, someone exclaimed, "It's a miracle! It's a blessing from the G.o.d of Light!"

"They're blessed by G.o.d!"

With that, everyone in the camp fell to their knees, awed by the sight .

At the same time, twenty pairs of black eyes watched this scene from outside the camp . They were the Strange Beastmen who'd come for a sneak attack .

Just as they were about to act, the silver moonlight appeared . Even at a small scale, Legendary power was still impressive . Link's Realm Essence was especially pure, so people would naturally be frightened by it .

Taken aback, the Beastmen turned and left without hesitation .

Link wasn't going to follow this merchant caravan anymore . He slipped away and followed the Strange Beastmen .

It's not easy to come up with this poison . I'd like to see who's making this mess .
