1091 The Greatest Treasure (2/2)
After finding a remote place, Mo Fan sat below a cliff to treat his wounds.
The medicine he had brought was fairly expensive. Mo Fan even used the special ointment that Xinxia had given him. It was quite effective when he applied it to the wounds, but there were simply too many of them. The ointment was nowhere enough, and the medicine he bought from the marketplace was too ineffective...
”The wounds are worsening too. Damn it, I'm going to lose my arm at this rate,” Mo Fan cursed.
Jack's scorpion had dealt the most damage to Mo Fan. He had only touched the creature's poison a little, yet it had already spread across Mo Fan's arm. If he could not find anyone to treat his arm soon, it would no longer be curable.
Mu Ningxue and Ayleen went ahead to take a bath. Both girls were obsessed with cleanliness and surely had the urge to clean themselves after the intense battle...
Some time later, the two girls regrouped with Mo Fan. Mu Ningxue was surprised to see Mo Fan, who was usually strong like an ox, had a pale face, with cold sweat on his forehead. She asked, ”Your injuries are too serious, why don't we call it a day?”
Ayleen discovered that Mo Fan's palm had turned black. She quickly rolled up his sleeve.
The two girls were shocked to see Mo Fan's entire arm was black. The poison was worse than they thought!
”I can still hold on for a little longer, did you find a Healer?” Mo Fan asked.
”I did, but the Healer is quite special,” Ayleen said.
Ayleen had been controlling the Observer Eagles to fly in all directions. She had been expending the energy of her Psychic Element to acquire information from different corners in the space.
”How special?” Mo Fan asked.
”The guy hasn't fought since the start of the treasure hunt. He simply found an obvious spot and set up a booth to sell his services,” Ayleen said helplessly.
”A booth?”
”Yeah.”
”You can really find all kinds of birds in a huge forest. I have to say, that guy is pretty smart, too. He knew that since every team is split up when the people are teleported here, many participants would eventually be injured, and would have a hard time finding their Healer...” Mo Fan shook his head with a wry smile.
If a Mage was unable to treat their injuries in time, their strength would decline rapidly. Meanwhile, time was of the essence in a treasure hunt like this. No one was willing to let the injuries be a burden to them. They would be more than willing to pay just to get their injuries treated… it was true that wherever there were fights, there would be a business opportunity too! Mo Fan wondered which country was the Healer from, since the person was bold enough to open up a private clinic to make some great profit in the middle of the treasure hunt!

On a mountain, a huge roar echoed into the sky!
”Asshole, even us bandits weren't so black-hearted!”
”Mo Fan, clam down, calm down, let's just pay the money. The poison is too deadly, a normal Healer might struggle to heal you too,” Ayleen tried to convince Mo Fan.
If they did not stop Mo Fan, he would really take the black-hearted doctor down with himself.
Mo Fan had totally lost his temper.
Getting healed once was going to cost him a hundred million!
One hundred million!
Mo Fan had never heard anyone asking for a hundred million just to heal his injuries. He simply had the urge to blast the asshole's skull open with a bolt of lightning!
”Friend, calm down, just calm down, it's only one hundred million, and I can guarantee that you'll fully recover from your injuries. I believe you can easily earn a hundred million from the treasure hunt. Why do you even bother making things difficult for a small business like me? You have to understand that I have to endure the shame of being looked down upon by the world, too. It's not easy for me,” the Healer from Sweden was surprisingly proficient in different languages. He was extremely fluent in Chinese!
”Not easy my ass! Ten million at most; treat my injuries now, or I'll rob you too!” Mo Fan said impatiently.
”Mo Fan, I really respect you, I watched your match against the Spanish team. I'm well aware of how strong you are, and I believe you're one of the strongest in this World College Tournament. However, to be honest with you, acting on impulse won't do you any good. The reason I've asked you to stay a certain distance away was because I've set up a barrier. Even the strongest Advanced Mage would need more than four seconds to break through the barrier, and within the four seconds, I can crush the teleporting scroll and run away. Judging by your injuries, you'll need to use the teleporting scroll soon too… in other words, let's not make it difficult for the both of us!” the Sweden Healer, named Tony, replied calmly.
It was not like Mo Fan did not have the money, but he found it extremely unfair when he learned the plump Healer was able to earn so much money when all he did was sit here and cast a few Healing Spells, while his Fan Xue Bandit Group had to work so hard!
”I just find you too much of an eyesore, I don't care if the both of us are going to be disqualified, since I've already earned quite a lot,” Mo Fan was as stubborn as an ox.
The guy was out of his mind. If healing someone actually cost a hundred million, he could easily carry Xinxia, who was now a Healer of the Parthenon Temple, around instead of trying to make a living by putting his life in danger!
”Don't be like that, we're all trying to survive in our own way, we all want to make a profit… How about this, I can heal you for free,” Tony said.
”No but,” Mo Fan harrumphed coldly.
The Sweden Healer grinned like a mischievous businessman, ”But, I'll make a deal with you. I've learned some interesting information from the last group of people that came to me, and I believe someone like you will be very interested in it...”
The man continued when he did not receive any response, ”Do you know that the Hunter Union has actually prepared something huge for the treasure hunt, like hiding a huge diamond in a pile of gold sand, waiting for someone to dig it out?”
