Divine Path System

Chapter 429 - Abnormal Reaction

"Fuck, that really hurt." Varian laid in a pool of blood, coughing incessantly.

A few meters away from him were Blue Flash and Enigma, both in another pool of blood. He could hear their breathing, so he sighed in relief.

After using the spare Ragnarok as a distraction, the ghost ship landed in front of Enigma and Blue Flash.

Varian appeared at the entrance. Of course, he wasn't completely defenseless.

Celestial grade walls were covering him from all sides except his hand, with which he pulled them in.

In the worst-case scenario that he was attacked, a celestial wall would chop off his hand, but protect him by enclosing him inside them and throwing him back into ghost ship.

Loss of a limb is painful and despite limb regeneration technology, it'd impact the combat power of most awakeners. For no matter how indistinguishable from the original, was ultimately 'unawakened'.

They'd have to train that limb again and to bring the new limb to equilibrium with the rest of the body was no easy task.

Of course, Varian wasn't too worried. As a plant Morpher, he had an uncanny advantage over other awakeners.

If he could reach level 7, regenerating perfect limbs without sequelae was possible.

Fortunately, the danger didn't occur. At least not completely. He pulled in Enigma and Blue Flash inside the encirclement of celestial walls and withdrew his hand.

Then the lightning spear stuck and the white-haired man's punch stuck the celestial wall at the very last moment, right before it was completely closed.

Only a part of the attack actually reached them and Blue Flash took most of it.

Varian only had to bear a fraction of what she bore, yet his organs were severely damaged.

Thankfully, the ghost ship took off.

"Haa~ Boo, cough cough, fuck, treatment please." Varian tried to wave his hand but found that he couldn't lift it.

"Congrats for not losing an arm, master." Boo greeted in a cheerful voice.

As robotic hands approached them, a coughing sound was heard.

"Cough. Cough." Blue Flash weakly raised her head and looked at him. The mask was still on, but Varian used his original voice, so she was flabbergasted.

But she had an important thing to say. "Dreamer, p-promise me to t-take care of Enigma and K-Kyle Dankworth."

"Uh…Huh?!" Varian almost stood up hearing the familiar name. "Wait, who are you to Kyle? Hey, cough cough…"

He ended up coughing blood for taking too much.

But Blue Flash didn't answer. She couldn't as she had fainted already.

"Keeping me in cough, s-suspense, cough…" Varian kept coughing blood.

"Master, do you want to start a blood coughing fountain." Boo rebuked, causing Varian to shut up.

Soon, he has placed on a soft bed and administered an 8-star healing potion. For his level, it was a luxurious treatment. Since Boo had some rich stock of potions and treasures, it was fine.

As his injuries healed and the pain faded, Varian felt his powers grow significantly. He did participate in the war briefly, but it gave him a nice overall improvement. This addition was merely icing on the cake, but Varian could feel that he was almost there.

"How are they?" Varian asked, slowly sitting up.

Next to him were two small rooms covered with celestial-grade walls. Varian could see the situation inside.

Enigma and Blue Flash were both being healed.

Enigma's dress seemed to be a treasure. It repaired itself and if not for having it seen it with his own eyes, he'd have never believed Enigma had a serious injury.

Next to her was Blue Flash who kept twitching and thrashing in the bed.

Varian recalled her last words and tapped his chin. "Take care of them? Did she think she wouldn't survive?"

"Her injuries were way more lethal." Boo manifested in front of him and answered. "I had to use a 9-star potion on her or she would've died."

"Ah! Makes sense." Varian finally nodded.

9-star healing potions were rare. Blue Flash must've thought he had no such healing potions due to the manner he rescued them.

After all, if he was a level 9, he wouldn't hide behind the wall or be so injured from a fraction of a part of a level 9 attack.

She had the healing potions in her storage ring, but she was not in a state to operate it.

Due to the crappy rules of the Trade Union, the non-owner of the storage ring, Dreamer couldn't open it either.

Thus, she thought she was going to die in absence of high-quality healing potions.

However, once she's gone, Dreamer could access her storage ring and use the healing potions to save Enigma.

She knew he'd save Enigma. But she needed an assurance.

But more likely, she wanted to use the situation to plead with him to take care of Kyle Dankworth.

Varian thought for a long time and didn't find anyone related to Kyle except Maya and his…

"Wait, is this really happening?" Varian got out of his bed and entered the room.

According to Boo, they'd take anywhere between thirty minutes to one hour to wake up.

It was Boo's doing.

"Master, you should carefully think what you'll do with them and how you'll deal with them," Boo said in a solemn tone.

Varian glanced at the two women and felt a massive headache. Shaking his head, he walked to Enigma.

Heavens forbid what material her cloth was, but her face was still covered. But Varian discovered something interesting.

Her tricolor hair turned silvery-white. There was also something strange about her that he couldn't quite put a finger on.

Shaking his head, Varian inched closer.

Then suddenly—

"H…huh?" Varian jolted back as his instincts literally pushed him away from her.

His thoughts were normal, but his body…his adrenaline was fully charged and his aura was in chaos.

There was an almost irresistible urge in him to move away from her.

Varian fought the feeling and stepped forward.

It was like carrying a mountain. His footsteps were incredibly heavy and his shirt was already drenched in sweat.

Varian's breath was ragged as he felt a huge weight on his chest. His entire body was revolting against him.

'Don't approach her!' It conveyed.

Varian had no idea what was happening, but he stubbornly stepped forward.

Right then, the urge in his body changed and his aura rioted.

Zap!

A lightning spear condensed out of his hand and nearly pierced Enigma, if not for his final intervention.

"W-What the hell is happening?"

Varian stepped back, nearly collapsing as he muttered in a daze.
