Feeling her organs still trembling slightly from the previous explosion, Amber got up from the ground.

"What...what's wrong here?!"

Cole's voice came from the side, but Amber ignored it immediately.

As the smoke and dust from the explosion gradually dissipated, the flames in front of us made everything around us look nothing like the jungle we once knew.

Apart from the crackling sound of burning, there was absolutely no other sound around.

Amber stood up from the ground in a daze and walked towards where the Doctor had been.

With my feet on the ground, I could almost feel the warmth emanating from the earth.

Amber was able to tolerate the temperature to some extent until the white smoke from the burning disappeared, revealing the figure that had been obscured by the smoke.

"What an amazing explosion!!!"

The doctor looked somewhat disheveled. He took a step forward and stomped out the still-burning mask that had fallen to the ground.

His tone contained no anger, only amazement at seeing something extraordinary.

Chapter 173 Protect Yourself

"What an amazing explosion!!!"

The doctor took a step forward, and the previous explosion seemed to have shattered all his previous disguise, revealing his true nature.

Although the doctor was in a sorry state, he was even more frightening than before.

Amber involuntarily took a step back.

The gilded guild members around them had all become corpses.

The charred corpses lay around the doctor.

But the Doctor seemed oblivious, staring intently at Amber and Cole behind her.

The intense gaze made Amber's heart tighten; she never expected that such an explosion wouldn't seriously injure the doctor.

"It seems I need to reassess your value."

The doctor spoke, and a dark light flashed in his eyes after his gaze fell on Amber's Eye of God.

"But before that... we need to correct your misconception."

"Let's go, together with that experimental subject..."

The doctor looked at Amber and said that this time he was not only targeting Cory, but also Amber.

The pressure emanating from the Doctor caused Amber to momentarily lose her composure.

However, Amber quickly recovered, and a longbow appeared out of thin air in her hand, with the arrowheads pointed at the Doctor not far away.

Amber's wary demeanor did not anger the Doctor.

The Doctor, having anticipated Amber's reaction, lowered his eyes and then stood still.

This harmless action startled Amber.

Before she could even react, she felt a sharp pain in the back of her head.

After the pain came a wave of dizziness.

The dizziness caused Amber to lose her grip on the longbow, and she fell to the ground.

Amber managed to turn her head and see a girl with long green hair standing in front of her.

She was holding a fist-sized stone in her hand, which was still stained with warm blood.

The blood dripping from the stone was particularly glaring, causing Amber to reach up and touch the back of her head.

A sticky, damp sensation came from Amber's hand, and she noticed that the substance on her hand was the same color as the stone in Cole's hand.

"Colette?"

Amber stared blankly at Cole, seeing only a pair of unfocused eyes.

—It's like being controlled.

The moment this thought crossed Amber's mind, the red figure collapsed towards Cole, unable to hold on any longer.

The delicate fragrance of a young girl wafted into Ke Lai's nose, and the scent slowly jolted her awake from her daze.

She looked at Amber, who had collapsed into her arms, and then at the stone in her hand.

Soon, as if realizing something, Cole's right hand, which was gripping the stone, dropped, and the stone fell to the ground.

"It seems that guy has done a good job training you all these years..."

The doctor's voice came through; he had appeared before the two of them without them noticing.

"The remnants of the demon god have almost fully matured within you..."

"It can't completely control you."

"And... that guy arrived pretty timely."

The doctor stood with his hands behind his back, and then took a step back as he spoke.

The next instant, the emerald green arrow grazed the doctor's body and then exploded into a green mist not far away.

“Let them go!!”

Tina's angry voice came from afar, followed by several forest rangers from Huacheng Guo.

As Miss Alice said, as long as the explosion is big enough, it will attract attention.

As long as it attracts attention, it is a qualified signal flare.

The people of Tinari, who were not far away, saw the commotion from the explosion.

As a forest ranger, he had to be concerned about how the explosion occurred.

Upon arriving here, he soon saw Amber and Cora, who were supposed to be heading to Mount Sumeru.

Of course, there was also the doctor standing in front of the two of them.

The difficult situation prompted Tinari to react, firing an arrow that forced the Doctor back from Cole's presence.

Cole saw Tinaly as well, and the light that had dimmed in his eyes quickly returned.

"Master Tinari!!"

"Colette, are you alright?"

"It's alright, but Amber..."

"Don't worry, I'll get you out of here soon."

After confirming that Cole was alright, Tinari looked at the Doctor again.

This time, he was somewhat relieved that he wasn't alone.

"team leader..."

The teammate standing to the side hesitated.

"The previous explosion set the surrounding forest ablaze, and the fire is spreading rapidly."

Upon hearing this, Tina frowned.

He looked at the forester in front of him, and then at the doctor on the other side.

“Arrange for some people to contain the fire.”

"Yes."

As soon as he finished speaking, more than half of the people on Tina's side disappeared.

Seeing Tina's appearance, the Doctor raised an eyebrow.

A lightning-elemental evil eye appeared in the doctor's hand.

As purple lightning crackled around the Evil Eye, a surge of lightning elemental power rushed toward Tinari and his group.

The sudden flash of lightning made Tina's pupils shrink, and he turned to look at his teammates behind him.

"Everyone, scatter!"

After the shout, Tinari drew his bow and nocked an arrow, which was quickly released from his hand.

The arrow was shot and split into four in mid-air.

Four arrows, imbued with the power of the grass element, flew towards the lightning, neutralizing its force, while others aimed at the Doctor, trying to strike the culprit.

Cole also stood up.

Looking at the doctor with his back to him, Cole, having made up his mind, also pulled out a green boomerang.

However, before she could throw the boomerang, the lingering demonic will within her made her mind momentarily dazed.

When Cole came to her senses, she found herself captured by the Doctor, with Tinari watching the Doctor from the front.

"The experimental subjects have been in your hands long enough."

The doctor said calmly, "Now, it's time to return it to me."

Tina didn't answer immediately. He glanced at Cole and then looked at the Doctor.

The doctor didn't pay attention to Tinari's action, but Cole's eyes flashed.

Master Tinari disliked people who talked incessantly, and he rarely spoke to others.

Therefore, Master Tinali often conveyed many things through gestures or eye contact.

Strangers, of course, couldn't understand what Tina's actions actually meant.

But Cole had spent many years with him.

If Cole were literate, he could even write a book called "An Analysis of Tinari Body Language".

As for what Tinari is trying to convey to Cole now.

It's dangerous here, you should hide quickly!

Of course, this refers to the situation before encountering imminent danger.
