A man among dragons, building a mysterious ancient church.

Chapter 383 What are you hesitating for? Feed the medicine!

The shadow warrior controlled by Chen Motong had no will to fight and was slashed twice by the two shadow warriors on the other side, the wounds were so severe that the bone was visible and his right arm was broken.

But so what? Chen Motong felt nothing since she wasn't the one who was hurt.

Chen Motong had no intention of fighting at the moment, and didn't care whether the shadow warrior he was controlling was dead or alive. His attention was entirely focused on Xu Lie, who was gradually descending.

The strangest thing was that the moment Xu Lie landed, a Traveler's Gate lit up beside him, and Erii actually walked out from behind the gate and stood side by side with Xu Lie at the edge of the Red Well.

Huh? Chen Motong's head was already dizzy from the high fever. Haha, her brain must have been damaged by the fever to see such an unbelievable hallucination.

Erii had already been parasitized by the White King and had her blood transfused by Herzog, so she should have died. How could she suddenly be transported from another place?
What is this? A beautiful fantasy created by the subconscious mind before death, a result of being unwilling to accept the situation?
Before Chen Motong could think any further, his dizzy mind suddenly cleared up. The feeling was as if someone had poured ice-cold Sprite over his head, making him feel incredibly cool!
The high fever subsided instantly, sweeping away all obstacles to thought.

"I'm all better?"

Chen Motong quickly opened her eyes, turned over and sat up, looking at her hands in disbelief, and clenched them again, releasing a powerful force from them once more.

The weakness in his limbs completely disappeared, and he stopped coughing, as if all the pathogens in his body had been stolen away, leaving not a trace.

“I’m all better now.” Fingel, no longer weak, was full of energy and casually dispersed all the defensive earthen walls he had created: “It seems Mr. Error arrived long ago.”

"That's true. Mr. Error also possesses a similar ability to teleport, or perhaps a teleportation talisman. He must have been lying in ambush around the Red Well beforehand, but we just didn't discover it."

Fingel continued his analysis, his curiosity growing. He desperately wanted to know what Xu Lie had done to cause the dramatic changes at Hongjing today.

Aso Shin and Nuwa, having also recovered, looked at Xu Lie and Erii with surprise and curiosity. Susie was still unconscious; she was not only sick but also suffering from spiritual depletion.

As for Chu Zihang, he burned off all the pathogens in his body. He was weak because when he transformed into flames, too many flames were extinguished, resulting in a double weakening of his aura and spirituality.

"What a scare!" Nuwa's face lit up with a bright smile. Everyone was alright, that's wonderful.

Halfway through the laughter, three cloned shadow warriors suddenly rushed to Nuwa's left and right. It turned out that the ten shadow warriors controlled by Chen Motong had been unknowingly killed by more than twenty shadow warriors working together.

These clones were completely hypnotized, devoid of any personal will, and mindlessly carried out Herzog's orders to kill everyone.

So, regardless of Herzog's death or why Xu Lie appeared, the Shadow Warrior only wanted to start killing.

"You're courting death!" Nuwa raised her eyebrows and roared angrily. She was unable to resist while lying down because she was too weak due to illness. Now that she had recovered, how could she allow these clones to provoke her?
Nuwa was furious and attacked without defending. The shadow warrior's sharp alchemical swords struck the powerful body of Nuwa's guardian, leaving at most a white mark.

Conversely, if a Shadow Warrior is hit by Nuwa's small fist, he immediately turns into a meat patty, which is extremely cruel and even more bloody than the 'work stoppage' of the members of the Fierce Ghost Clan.

Aso Shin unleashed a rain of dark arrows, Fingel manipulated wind blades, and Chen Motong was mentally stunned. In less than five seconds, the group of shadow warriors were all killed.

Even though those unaffected by the disease suffered considerable losses, they could easily deal with the clones using only a small amount of their spiritual power.

As they finished off the shadow warrior, Xu Lie and Erii walked together in front of everyone. Nuwa and Asou were the happiest. Nuwa rushed over and hugged Erii, saying, "Thank goodness! Erii, you're alright!"

Aso Shin was more reserved. He first bowed slightly to Xu Lie with a beaming smile before showing concern for Erii.

Xu Lie smiled at Masami in response, strolled over to Fingel, and extended his hand. Fingel understood and took his hand, but Xu Lie pulled him up.

Before he could say anything, Chu Zihang, dragging his weary body, found Asou Makoto, who was surrounding Erii, and pleaded, swaying slightly and unsteady on his feet, "Please help Susie, teleport back to find medicine, and replenish Susie's spiritual energy."

Asou Makoto, who was concerned about Erii, immediately realized that it was time for her, the pharmacist, to play a role: "Erii, let's catch up later."

"Come with me first to go back to the old temple to get the medicine. It's not just Susie, everyone else needs some healing and spiritual replenishing medicine."

Even a skilled cook can't cook without rice. With Genjiro seriously injured in the desolate wilderness, Aso Shin could only find the most basic herbs, which he casually concocted into a potion to stop Genjiro's bleeding.

However, to completely cure everyone or to replenish Susie's spirituality, we still need to go back and get the medicinal herbs.

Erii was also very concerned about Susie, and so were her brother Genjiro, as well as Uesugi Kotsugi and Genjiro, who were also in a coma. She quickly agreed.

With a casual swipe, he opened the door, took Aso Makoto away, and returned with Aso Makoto within two minutes.

Aso Shin began to rapidly produce medicines. After advancing to the Witch King level, he became increasingly adept at brewing potions, able to brew three different potions simultaneously with even better effects.

The downside is that the more effective the medicine, the shorter its shelf life tends to be, because these medicinal ingredients are too active and difficult to preserve for a long time. Therefore, Masayuki Aso needed to refine the medicine on-site and did not stockpile it in large quantities.

While waiting for the medicine, Xu Lie looked up at the sky as if nothing had happened. The elemental turbulence created when Herzog ascended to godhood had gradually subsided.

For example, the tsunami in the surrounding area suddenly weakened, and the damage to Tokyo was no longer enormous; for example, the sky was still covered with dark clouds, but there was no longer any thunder.

The rain stopped pouring down, and the drifting dark clouds would take some time to dissipate. Until then, there was no need to worry about Pompeii spying on them. While he was pondering this, Asou Makoto quickly brewed the medicine and distributed it to everyone.

Under the effects of the medicine, the spiritual energy depleted in battle and the physical weakness caused by illness quickly recovered. Uesugi Koshi and Genji's injuries also healed rapidly, and they only needed to wait for them to wake up naturally.

Chu Zihang, however, was at a loss when faced with the unconscious Susie. He held the spiritual replenishment potion provided by Asou Makoto in his hand, unsure of how to administer the medicine.

Chen Motong, always eager for a good show, stepped forward and nudged Chu Zihang with her shoulder, her eyes gleaming with a mocking look: "What are you hesitating for? Feed him the medicine with your mouth!"

"It's like Sleeping Beauty in a fairy tale, the princess who falls into a coma and wakes up with a prince's kiss—how romantic!"

She wasn't betraying her best friend; on the contrary, she was helping Susie out! Chen Motong believed that her good friend Susie would thank her when she woke up and found out.

Chu Zihang remained expressionless, completely unmoved by Chen Motong's instigation, and calmly retorted: "The swallowing and coughing reflexes of an unconscious person will be weakened or even disappear."

“If you force liquid into their mouths, they cannot swallow properly, and the liquid can easily flow into their trachea, causing suffocation or aspiration pneumonia.”

"Huh?" Several huge question marks appeared on Chen Motong's forehead. So it was wrong to feed medicine mouth-to-mouth to an unconscious person, as depicted in movies and TV shows?
Chen Motong gave Chu Zihang a thumbs up with some admiration. As expected of Chu Zihang, he was indeed calm and reliable. No wonder her best friend liked him.

Although it wasn't very romantic, Chen Motong agreed to the marriage because of his care and attention to detail towards Susie.

If you don't understand anything and are tempted by beauty to give someone drugs, you're more likely to turn a good thing into a bad one.

If it were Caesar facing the unconscious Chen Motong, Chen Motong was certain that Caesar would not think twice and would simply feed him the medicine.

This was the young nobleman's innate personality.

Hearing their conversation, Aso Shinjin felt a little numb: "Um, please trust my potion, it's a spirit-replenishing potion specially made for Susie."

"It is in liquid form for easy storage in a bottle. In fact, after the medicine enters Susie's body, it will spontaneously revert to spiritual components and act directly on the spiritual level."

"Simply put, this medicine of mine will not enter the trachea, and the problem that Mr. Red Priest is worried about will not occur."

"..." Chu Zihang suddenly fell silent.

Chen Motong silently withdrew her thumbs-up. She should reconsider this marriage.

A gentle breeze rustled a fallen leaf as it swirled past, and all was silent before Susie.

"Pfft~"

"Hahaha!"

Xu Lie, Fingel, and Nuwa showed no respect whatsoever, laughing heartily. Fingel even laughed until tears streamed down his face. It was the first time they had ever seen the expressionless Chu Zihang so awkward.

Erii, who was feeding medicine to Uesugi Koshi and the Genji brothers with a medicine bottle, was also attracted by the laughter. She looked up and smiled in agreement, "Everyone, it's so nice."

Unable to bear the laughter, Chu Zihang strode forward and swiftly fed Su Xi the medication.

Just as Aso Makoto had said, Susie didn't need to swallow at all. The potion replenished her spiritual energy on its own. A few minutes later, Susie slowly opened her eyes and saw Chu Zihang, who was close at hand and had a hint of concern on his face. She subconsciously smiled.

It's so nice to see my favorite person the first thing I see when I wake up.

"Get out of the way." Chen Motong forcefully pushed Chu Zihang aside, helped her best friend to her feet, drawing a disapproving look from Su Qian.

Chen Motong didn't care about her friend's prioritization of romance over friendship, and began to describe with great enthusiasm: "Let me tell you, Su Qian, you have no idea how funny Chu Zihang was just now..."

When Chen Motong told the story again, Xu Lie and Fingel couldn't help but laugh out loud. Fingel even stomped his feet while laughing. The contrast between Chu Zihang just now was too great.

"What are you laughing at?" Chu Zihang asked, hoping his two companions would give him some face and quiet down for a while.

Xu Lie hadn't expected to see something so amusing, and he couldn't help but smile, saying, "I'm thinking of something happy."

"What's the good news?" Chu Zihang took two steps closer, intending to get to the bottom of it. Surely it couldn't be that Mr. Wrong and Xia Milongwang had a baby in England?
"I've reached Sequence 1."

Finger, who was still laughing, suddenly choked: "Hahaha! Young Master?!"

"What the hell?" Chen Motong didn't even bother to repeat it to Su Qian.

The crowd quickly gathered, preparing for the first of three trials.
