Chapter 1352 Jacky's Condition
Tang Shaoyang left the Skelly Family and Rumru in the city as he returned to the Dimensional Gate. He needed more preparation before he could go on his journey to find Lunea and also kill the human Gods.
The first preparation that he needed was to put guards on the gate. He could not allow anyone to enter the gate whether from Aqura or from Earth without his permission. That was specifically for the people from Aqura. Not just guards, the dwarf was deployed to cover the Dimensional Gate. Just a casual house for three people was built, and Tang Shaoyang summoned three spirits to guard the gate.
Three Grade S+ Spirit should be enough. If anything stronger came for them, he could switch places with them anytime to help.
Karoen and Zara expressed their interest in following him instead of staying behind. The two had no interest in doing more research than what they had achieved. Completely different from their partner who begged them to stay behind with him.
Naten the dwarf had an ambition to craft a dimensional gate by himself instead of relying on the System.?The one they used right now was a reward from the System, and Naten wanted to create one by himself. He wanted to create a gate where he could choose where to connect without the complicated process they had right now. Unfortunately for Naten, Zara stayed with Tang Shaoyang while Karoen was a knight who had more passion for adventure and fighting.
It took him around thirty minutes to get ready to return to Aqura. He needed to notify Elin and Ava that he would be away during the knight and would return when it was morning on Earth. After everything was ready, he returned to Aqura and summoned five Grade S+ Spirit. He changed his mind and added two more spirits to guard the gate in Aqura.
Half an hour on Earth was five hours in Aqura. That should be more than enough for Rumru to have his reunion with Frost and Jacky.
Frost put more guards in their own backyard after what happened five hours ago, and the guards seemed to recognize him as they opened the door without questioning him. He followed the street and headed to the mansion where Rumru was.
"What took you so long?" Rumru questioned him. He told the Black Dragon that he would return shortly, but it had been five hours. The sky started to get dark.
"It's only been half an hour of my world's time. Don't you remember that time flows differently?" Tang Shaoyang shrugged and turned toward Frost. Jacky the Red Monkey was also there, sitting in the wooden wheelchair.
Jacky got his legs cut and also his right arm. Tang Shaoyang knew that Jacky was injured, but not expecting it to be this severe, "Don't you have a regeneration potion?" However, even if his limb was cut, it should not be an issue to regrow it.
If Jacky's body did not have a high regeneration, then he could use a potion to regenerate the missing part. As long as one was alive, it was possible to recover from any injury. He even brought a dead person back alive. Regenerating a missing limb should not be a big issue, at all.
"We have tried, but the regeneration potion does not work on Jacky. It was not just a simple wound that could be treated with potion either. His flesh is rotting, eating his body every hour. We have tried healing potion, antidote, and regeneration potion. No potion works on Jacky," Frost explained with a sigh.
Jacky had lost his vigor and will to live. It could be seen from his expression when they talked about the wound. At this point, living was a torture for him. He could not do anything, and he watched his flesh rot every hour. His days were numbered.
"Is it poison?" Tang Shaoyang came closer and the rotten smell became stronger, "Is it poison, or you are getting poisoned by Dark Energy? Or maybe poison with dark energy?" The Dark Energy's source was Undead and Demon, and it was poison for the beastmen and humans. If it was the first case, they needed an antidote. If it was the second case where Dark Energy entered Jacky's system; Tang Shaoyang could help him right away by drawing out the Dark Energy. In the third case, an antidote was the only cure.
"Can you help him?" Frost held Tang Shaoyang's shoulders tight as they found hope.
"Don't get too close," He pushed Frost away, "I can't help him, but I know someone who can treat him." That someone was currently working on his Alchemist Facility back on Earth. It was his spirit, Yu The Ancient Alchemist.
Tang Shaoyang recalled Yu and summoned him again in this world, "Why are you recalling me in the middle of my research!?" The Ancient Alchemist was clearly dissatisfied with being summoned to this place without warning. He was holding a small tube with weird-colored liquid inside the tube.
"I need you to treat him."
When the alchemist noticed that there were strangers around him, he straightened his lab coat and acted like a dignified alchemist should do. He came closer to Jacky, furrowing his brow. He did not open the gauze to check the wound as he already found out what happened to his VIP patient.
"The poison runs deep into his system. A simple antidote is not enough to help. He needs a long treatment plan," Yu rubbed his chin, "This is an interesting potion that contains Dark Energy. They live by consuming your energy as if the poison is alive." He then turned toward Tang Shaoyang, "Can I bring him back? It will be faster to cure him in my place with the facility there."
"That's what the expert said. Do you want to follow him for the treatment?"
"Why are you still asking!?" Rumru was angry that Tang Shaoyang still asked the injured Jacky if the person wanted to get treated or not. That was just absurd for him.
Tang Shaoyang just shook his head. The reason he asked was because Jacky had no will to live anymore. Even after knowing he could get treated, he could not see any emotion or even excitement in him. As if he had given up.
Jacky looked up at Yu and asked in a hoarse voice, "Can I regrow my legs and arm?" That was what was in his mind. It seemed his missing legs and arm made him no longer have the will to live. If he could not regrow the missing parts, what was the point of living? It would be just a torture for him.
