Chapter 839: Explanation (1/2)
Sam was surprised, to say the least when he looked at the situation.
This whole area was ruined as if a storm hit.
Silva floating in the pool like a corpse. If not for the faint breathing, Sam would have thought he really is a corpse.
And finally grace. He didn't expect they would manage to keep her alive until now. He activated energy vision and checked the situation and the pool really invoked his curiosity.
The vitality that the pool is emitting is just too much.
If it could be channeled properly, then it could heal even a Consummate easily. Then Sam changed his attention to Silva who is floating.
He was stunned for a second. The damage that he took is actually is very severe. The energy waves coming out of his body are all messed up completely.
Sam placed his hand on his body and started checking. The observation ability showed him one of the worst states a person could be in.
Every muscle fiber was torn apart, the wing joints are also completely broken off. So many veins were broken and bleeding internally. But the vitality from the pool is still trying to keep up with the damage and trying to heal him. Put him back into the shape.
While he was lost in a daze, Priestess yelled from behind.
”I want you to save her. I will give you the weapon fragment and you can get out of here.”
”Don't worry, it is not that difficult to save her. I will do it. But I have a different deal to make. Are you up for it?”
”What is that?”
”I will save his ass. What would you pay for that?”
”He doesn't need any saving.”
”Not really. I don't know what exactly happened, but every muscle fiber of his body is torn apart and every organ is displaced as if the whole body was shaken. Every system that ensures the survival of the person is damaged. The bones are broken in weird places and there is a severe clot in the brain. If you let him heal like that, the bones and joints would form back in a different way and the whole body wouldn't function normally.
He would live a fate worse than death. He couldn't even walk, sit, stand, fly, anything. Are you sure you want him to heal like that?”
”Wha... What are you saying?”
”I am not fooling you. You can check it out yourself. Even if you couldn't get a detailed view of what I said, you could at least get some basic understand if you examine him.
I will cure her while you do it. But before that, Can I see the weapon fragment?”
She went out to the large statue and started rotating the last remaining base of it. The sound of some large cogs could be heard and soon a large square tile in front of the statue went down a bit and slid sideways.
There is a purple metal rod that has one smooth edge and another broken edge.
She took it out and ran back to Sam, but didn't give it to him.
Sam shrugged and went to pull Grace out of the pool and started healing her. After rescuing her, Priestess threw the metal rod towards him.
He caught it and examined it.
The metal seems to be an alloy of different metals because he couldn't find a match within all the metals in his memory.
He stored that away and asked.
”What about the other deal? Are you interested in it?”
By now the priestess has already checked the situation with him and started thinking on what to do. She felt that Sam's words have some merit in them. But she doesn't have anything to pay with.
”What do you want? Spirit stones?”
”No, I have too many of them.”
”Then I don't have anything else to pay with. In fact, there is nothing anyone can offer you here other than the spirit stones.
We just lost our support from Nike. The statues collapsing is the result of that. After a few days, I think the other places will invade us and start a war. Taking over this land under their rule and making our branch of the race as slaves.”
”Mind telling me what happened here?”
Sam asked while he looked at Grace. Arkiv is currently taking care of her. He is feeding her pills that are good for healing the soul and cleaning the body.
Sam raised an eyebrow at this.
Priestess didn't seem to care about anything. She felt that she has seen too much today as she explained what happened.
Sam listened to it intently and said.
”The rules of the planet are being changed like that? Then what about now? What are the current rules?”
