Chapter 239: *Looking for something*
He then said to his son to warn him when he saw him stop in front of the wall and put his paw on the place where Kelan’s trace had disappeared, "Son, this building is a kind of high-security prison, and they may have already executed all their prisoners when they left, so prepare for the worst, okay? ... Move away, I’m going to break through the wall."
Mykael was still holding his sword in his right hand, and he blew the wall apart with a single kick. Immediately after, Lucas said to him, "They are alive, but they are poisoned; they all have a purple aura around their energy print."
Axel didn’t know what an energy print was, but Kelan’s trace was still visible, so he rushed inside because he knew he had very little time left before he lost the advantage of his father’s bloodline. He heard his father swear, and he felt him right behind him saying in a disgruntled tone, "I told you to stay behind me."
But Axel didn’t slow down and continued to break down the doors that were in his path one after the other.
It was only when he arrived in front of the cell that was impregnated with Kelan’s fragrance that he stopped, and just at that moment, he felt the power of his father’s bloodline disappearing. He changed back into a human, and his father handed him his magic bag so that he could get dressed, and then he pushed him to the side. He could see that his father was careful this time.
Mykael exerted just enough force to break the hinges that held the door, and once he held it in his hands, he put it against the opposite wall where his son was. Axel, who had only taken the time to put on a pair of pants, stepped into the cell and saw that Kelan had collapsed on the floor.
But that wasn’t all; as Lucas had already told them, he was really poisoned. Purple and red veins were visible all over his skin, and he saw his father kneel beside him and take his pulse.
Mykael said to him, "This is not good, son; this God has removed her mark that she had to put on him to keep him here, and his organism is poisoned. He is still alive, but probably not for long; it’s already a real miracle that this human has survived until now."
Axel immediately handed a legendary-grade Healing potion to his father to give to Kelan, but unfortunately, it didn’t seem to have much effect on his condition. He said to his father, "Without this mark, he can’t stay here; we have to take him back to the Sun Sect."
His father shook his head and said, "Not the Sun Sect. I need you to contact Kevin for me; tell him we need a discreet and secure place to evacuate the prisoners and treat them. Tell him we need Dilan to cooperate. This time it’s really an emergency or they will all die."
As Axel was contacting Kevin via their new telepathic link, Mykael whistled, and only a few seconds later, Lucas arrived and reported the situation to him.
No one knew what kind of poison it was, but the conditions of the prisoners were all the same; none of them had a protective mark, and 14 had already died from the pressure of this plane of existence. As for the poison, it seemed to spread very quickly to the vital organs, and the 12 survivors, not counting Kelan, were all in critical condition.
Lucas looked at Kelan and said to Mykael, "How did this kid manage to survive this far? It’s really amazing."
Mykael honestly said, "I have no idea, but apparently he’s as resourceful as his other two brothers; this family is really fascinating."
Axel then said to him, "Dilan has already lifted the force fields and he has agreed; we can take them all to his property ... Kev said they were also moving there. Can you find him and open a portal to join them?"
Mykael nodded and said, "Tell him we’re on our way and that there are 12 survivors besides Kelan."
He then turned to Lucas and said, "I’ll open the portal here; tell the others and evacuate everyone, even the dead... don’t waste time."
Lucas nodded and disappeared immediately to warn the others. As for Mykael, he concentrated on the aura of his son-in-law and opened a portal so that they could all join him.
Axel had already taken Kelan in his arms, and as soon as the portal was opened, he didn’t wait for the green light from his father and crossed it right away.
....
When Axel had just disappeared with his father, Dilan didn’t have time to ask Kevin what he was going to do with this creature, because he then approached the chameleon with a smile that gave him goosebumps.
He then saw him create a big needle that looked more like a little ice spike with spirital energy, and he stuck it into the chameleon’s wrist, right where he had wanted to bite himself earlier.
Dilan asked him, confused by his behavior, "What are you doing?"
Kevin replied while sticking his needle into another spot on the chameleon’s wrist, "I’m looking for something ... The way he rushed to bite his wrist reminded me of the elite soldiers of my world. But these soldiers were better prepared than this chameleon. When they were on a dangerous mission and couldn’t let the enemy take them alive, they always had a pellet stuck in their molar that they just had to pierce to release a poison that would kill them instantly."
Kevin’s smile widened when he felt that he had finally pierced a pouch and that a purple goo had stuck to his needle made of spirital energy. He said to them, "Found it! Now I just have to get it out."
Kevin took one of his daggers that he had kept behind his back, and he began to feel the chameleon’s wrist where his needle had pierced the pouch. It must have been small, but his intuition told him that he absolutely had to get it back. So when he finally felt it, he cut the skin around it, and then he heard the chameleon’s howl of pain.
He turned his eyes toward him and said in an annoyed tone, "Oh yes, that’s right; I almost forgot that you were still alive. I’m really sorry about that."
And then, right after he finished his sentence, he broke his neck without any hesitation and continued what he was doing without worrying about the stunned looks that the others were giving him.
