Chapter 487 Resurrection
“I took Mr. Anemo’s suggestion and rolled the dice.”
Alan glanced at Leo, who was pale-faced, and said coldly, “I played along and let the traitor activate the poison in me. I was dead for a
moment.
“Mr. Anemo is worthy of his title as the No. 1 doctor in the South
River State because he formulated a cure after figuring out the source
of the trigger.
“In the two days I lay in the coffin, my body expelled the toxin. I only regained consciousness this morning.”
Alan’s brief narrative sparked conversation in the room.
Charles lived up to his reputation.
While Alan recounted the event, Charles was busy treating Jere
Jeremiah, who lay unconscious seconds ago, jolted up. His chest rose and fell in ragged gasps, his throat raw as he groaned.
“Blegh!”
He spat out black blood which splashed on the tiles. Wisps of smoke rose from the pool of blood.
The blood was the toxin of Shadowbane Essence.
Charles used needle insertion therapy to force the toxin out of Jeremiah.
Though still looking sickly, Jeremiah regained some pink in his cheeks. When he came to life, he knew that he had a narrow miss with death.
He got up and nodded at Charles with respect. “Thank you for saving my life, Mr. Anemo.”
“Mr. Sword Fanatic, you should thank this young man.”
Charles was a man of integrity. He pointed at Kaze. “If he hadn’t
pointed out how you were poisoned I wouldn’t have cleared the toxin that quickly.”
Everybody looked at Kaze in surprise.
The dummy son-in-law of the Quints earned the praise of the No. 1 doctor in the South River State.
They wondered if the idiot was a skilled doctor. Still, most were skeptical.
The dummy must have made a lucky guess. The crowd refused to believe that the lowly son-in-law of the Quints was medically gifted like Charles.
Jeremiah did not seem surprised. He nodded at Kaze gratefully.
He then stared at Rock aloofly.
Twenty years ago, Jeremiah equaled Rock in both blade skills an fame, and the underworld dubbed them the Blade Enthusiast and Sword Fanatic.
However, they never once fought each other.
They met for the first time today.
“You said that you wanted a duel once I woke up, Rock. We can finally
see who is the last man standing today.”
Jeremiah raised his sword and pointed it at Rock.
Sparks flew.
Those belonging to the underground society grew excited.
The final showdown between the top fighters in the criminal world was not a show to miss.
However, Rock, despite suggesting the fight before, did not give an immediate response.
He glanced at Kaze in the crowd and walked away.
“You were poisoned, Jeremiah. Even if I win, it won’t feel like a real victory. We can fight once you’re all better.”
Rock wanted to see how he stacked up against a worthy opponent like Jeremiah.
His only concern was Kaze.
Rock had no idea what Kaze was capable of.
Nevertheless, he could tell that Kaze was as strong as him, if not more, as Kaze managed to open the coffin with a knife.
Rock was worried that Kaze would stop him from leaving evel won against Jeremiah.
Despite Angel’s desperate pleas for Rock to stay, Rock walked awa
