Chapter 614: Holy Water (2/2)

With a wave of her hand, the crowd was pushed back by black clouds of darkness before it formed a slithering serpent under her control of the Darkness Law.

”Ahh! The lady in black is killing people! Help!”

The sickly crowd retreated in fear of the black serpent made of darkness while crying loudly as several people stumbled and fell over, hurting not only themselves but also by others stepping on them.

”Ahhh! Stop! Don't step on me!”

”Nooo! Don't step on my child!”

The cries were loud and raucous, causing Duna to frown in annoyance as she raised a hand, preparing to silence the crowd.

”Stop it, Duna.” Leon grabbed her hand and spoke, ”They are just desperately seeking my help in order to survive. There's no need to use excessive force on them.”

”Hmph! If we don't show them our strength, they will just walk all over us!” Duna snorted before stating fiercely, ”This disorderly mob needs to be whipped into order!”

”What you said makes sense.” Leon nodded before he added, ”However, some of these people are already very weak due to the plague. I'm afraid your little display of force will kill them.”

”Remember; we are here to save people, not kill them,” Leon stated.

”Hmph, suit yourself.” Duna snorted.

She took off from Leon's side and headed off to explore the Desolate Crow Clan on her own.

At the same time, a veil of darkness protecting a mother-daughter duo from being stepped on disappeared along with her.

Leon scratched his cheeks wryly.

Duna was outwardly cold and inwardly warm. Even so, some things needed to be said to prevent accidents from happening.

”Divine doctor, please save us…”

”I don't want to die… My family needs me…”

The crowd of sickly clansmen continued to plead for Leon's treatment, albeit from a distance. Evidently, they were afraid of annoying the only person who could potentially save them.

”What should we do, Leon? There's quite a lot of people gathered here. I don't think we can treat them all at once, even if you are the one treating them,” Lilith sought Leon's opinion.

”Right… this is a bit troublesome…” Leon muttered before ruffling the little boy's head, ”Sorry, brat. Saving your mother will have to wait a bit.”

Shortly after, Leon strolled over to the mother-daughter duo and popped a Tier-1 All-Purpose Healing Pill into the 3-year old girl's little mouth.

”This medicine will not cure her, but it will help her recovering some fighting strength to last a bit longer,” Leon explained to the mother.

”Thank you, doctor! Thank you very much!” The mother bowed in gratitude.

After witnessing the sick girl in the mother's arm recovering a lively complexion and stable breathing, the crowd became a bit restless.

Nevertheless, no one dared to step forward.

They waited for their turns to be treated impatiently with red eyes like a pack of hungry wolves that would devour whole—if given a chance, causing Leon's hair to rise with goosebumps and his lips to twitch slightly.

After observing the sick crowd while contemplating, Leon spotted a water fountain in the distance before his eyes lit up.

”Follow me, everyone.”

Lilith quickly followed Leon closely while the crowd trailed some distance behind before they reached the water fountain moments later.

Leon glanced at the red water in the fountain that had been contaminated by rat blood before he quickly spread out his divine sense and began cleansing the water fountain.

The blood was gathered with Divine Will before getting extinguished by the Nihility Law. After taking several measures, the water fountain became sparkling clean.

The sick crowd observed silently with curiosity while a few marveled at his display of miraculous abilities, sensing the air in the area had also become slightly purer and less stuffy.

”What are you trying to do, Leon?” Lilith inquired.

”Preparing a temporary solution to buy time for your sick clansmen,” Leon stated before he resumed taking out Tier-1 to Tier-3 All-Purpose Healing Pills from the Worldspace and tossing them into the water fountain.

The Tier-1 and Tier-3 All-Purpose Healing Pills dissolved quickly like salt.

Shortly after, several spirit herbs were also refined on the spot with his 9-Star Fire Ability as he extracted their herbal essence and mixed it in the water fountain.

Within a short moment, the water fountain glowed with a soft green light.

”I guess this can be considered a type of Holy Water…” Leon muttered.

After completing his preparations, he could sense the restorative effects of the Holy Water just by looking at it.

Shortly after, he turned to face the crowd.

”The Holy Water has been prepared. All of you only need to take a sip to experience its effectiveness. Note that this is a temporary solution that will allow you to survive a bit longer.”

”It will not completely cure you even if you were to drink everything. So do not be greedy and share among yourselves accordingly,” Leon stated calmly.
