Chapter 2949 The Poison I Created
Soon, Levi arrived at the sacred spring.
Initially, he assumed that Troy and the others were faced with a powerful enemy.
However, he arrived to find that they were not in danger at all.
“What happened?” Levi asked sternly.
Forlevia had fainted inside the sacred spring, while her face was covered with lines that were induced by the poison.
From the looks of it, she had struggled for a while as the poison caused her to behave hysterically.
“She was doing fine until she suddenly went raving mad. It looks as if the poison was acting up,” Troy explained softly.
Even though her reaction had given them a fright, they had no idea how to help her.
Subsequently, Levi examined her.
Indeed, the poison was acting up again. Her current condition is similar to when she was just released. That means that the time she spent in the sacred spring didn’t help her at all. In fact, every part of her seems to be gradually weakening, and she is now resigned to being in a semi-unconscious state most of the time. What’s really going on?
Checking the sacred spring’s water, Levi noticed that it had become black. Moreover, all its minerals had also been absorbed.
By then, the rate of mineral absorption had increased significantly compared to when the sacred spring cleansed Forlevia earlier.
What is it that’s absorbing all the spring’s nutrients?
As a sense of uneasiness crept into him, Levi investigated the reason.
I understand now! It must be due to how strong the poison is. It actually has the ability to grow and strengthen itself.
In the beginning, the sacred spring’s water suppressed and even managed to cleanse Forlevia of the poison.
However, the poison managed to adapt to the conditions and used the spring water as a means to reinvigorate itself.
In fact, by using Forlevia as a medium, it was able to absorb even more nutrients from the water.
After all, the poison’s objective was to convert Forlevia into poison itself.
The Final Malice does live up to its reputation as the most powerful poison ever. Not only can it evolve but also grow stronger by itself.
The discovery was something that Levi hadn’t expected. The poison was so strong that it had overpowered the sacred spring instead.
Fortunately, Forlevia’s had absorbed a lot of medication when she was soaked in the spring earlier.
Or else, her life would be threatened by the poison acting up.
Soon, Dr. Erebus and Digital God arrived.
Once they heard what happened, they were stunned.
“Doesn’t that mean that the sacred spring is now useless? If she continues to soak in it, wouldn’t the poison grow stronger from feeding on it?” Dr. Erebus highlighted the most important point.
Consequently, Levi felt disheartened. Just when he thought he had found a solution, it backfired on them.
The poison is just too powerful. Those b*stards!”
Levi was filled with rage.
More importantly, what should I do? Am I to give up on the sacred spring just like that?
At that moment, Levi and his companions refused to accept what was going on.
Are the Ecclesiastic Order and the second half of the Poison Handbook our last hope?
As of then, the idea of finding magical herbs in restricted areas was dead.
Even at the super-spiritual ley line beneath the South Pole, they couldn’t find any at all.
Those that were found in other restricted areas weren’t strong enough to cure Forlevia of her poisoning.
Now that the sacred spring was useless, Levi had no choice but to carry Forlevia up and leave.
Nonetheless, he still had to find an antidote to the poison.
“Everyone, return to Erudia, and search for the Ecclesiastic Order. Once you have a lead, inform me at once. I will then let you know how to recognize them.
With that, Levi sent Troy and eighty men back to Erudia to continue the search for the Ecclesiastic Order.
Also, he taught them the special way to identify them.
As for him, he continued searching for magical herbs in Rank One restricted areas.
Also, he got Digital God to stay behind to locate exceptional humans throughout the world.
Evidently, Levi would give every single possibility a try.
Before he set off, Dr. Erebus suddenly exclaimed, “Mr. Garrison, I have an idea, and I think it might work!”
“What is it? Tell me quickly,” Levi shouted anxiously given how lost he felt.
