Heroic Death System

Chapter 142 (Arc 11)

Spring Comes Upon A Withered Tree (IX)

"What's wrong?" Tomo saw Yao's strange expression and asked.

"No-nothing." Yao seamlessly hid his trembling fingers behind him. His contact with him just now greatly alarmed him. There was a frightening power within this human's body like a barrier that was hard to see through. He had only probed it a bit and was almost devoured in return.

Ivan's eyes dimmed as he looked toward Yao. He has some misgivings about Yao's action just now.

Yao felt a bit apprehensive being stared by him and left after stammering out some superficial words. Tomo also announced his leave following him out.

"What happened?" Ivan frowned, suspicion filling him.

Shang Ke did not answer. After the aura of the Spring of Life was leaked, he had expected people to come check it out. He just had not expected it to be so fast.

Seems like the location of the phantom jade can't be hidden for much longer.

The following days, there would be half-elves wandering nearby Ivan's tent. Tomo was also very diligent, but it was mainly to ask about the oxygen spirit seal. Something like that that can immediately seal a specter had long caused a small scale sensation.

Ivan also did not hide it, he directly gave the last seal along with the way to make them. Tomo took as if it was a precious treasure and did not appear again for days. Even a brainless person can tell he went to find alchemists to try to make it. But unfortunately he had underestimated the difficulty in creating the seal and used up a lot of rare material without being able to make a single one.

But that was not something Shang Ke was worried about. Rather, as five days, then six days passed, Ivan's antidote was never sent over.

Shang Ke arrived at the pharmacy and found the doctor that had checked Ivan at the time and explained his purpose for coming.

"Uh, I'm sorry, it still hasn't been completed."

Shang Ke frowned, "It's been so long, why hasn't it been made yet?"

"We are missing a couple herbs." The doctor's eyes were a bit shifty.

"What are you missing? I'll go find them." Shang Ke's eyes turned cold, he had already faintly guessed what was going on.

The doctor turned away and mumbled out a couple names.

Shang Ke stared at him for a long time then left without a word.

He was still a distance away from the tent when Shang Ke felt a great deal of elements hitting him. His face immediately changed as he ran quickly to where the originated from.

Outside of Ivan's tent, five half-elves were releasing magic. Rays of green light were forming a mirror like boundary.

With the strengthening of the elements, a cry of pain came from within the tent. Anger welled up in Shang Ke and he attempted to rush into the tent but was stopped by a large hand.

"You can't go over there." Tomo's voice sounded by his ear.

"Let me go." Shang Ke coldly spoke.

The phantom jade is within his body." Tomo tried to persuade him, "As an elf yourself, you should desire the unsealing of the spring more than us."

"Have you ever asked about what Ivan wanted?"

"I believe that he is willing to sacrifice his life for the greater good of the country." Tomo righteously replied.
