Chapter 142: Constant Troubles



Logan\'s face contorted into a snarl as he takes out a vial of potion and pours the powder into Dilly\'s mouth.

He then added some clean water and says, "Dilly, I\'m sorry, but we won\'t need you for the next part of the plan.So, you can only die!Don\'t worry, I will throw you into the Qaidam Lake in the rainstorm. During this time, there are terrible piranhas in the Qaidam Lake. Your body will be eaten to the bone, and no one will find you dead."

Dilly curses angrily, "You\'re a lunatic!"

Logan laughs maniacally, shouting, "Yes, I\'m a lunatic! Why do all of you get to run free and do whatever you want while I\'m stuck endlessly trying to ease my suffering and buy myself a little more time?"

Logan rambled on.

As the potion took effect, Dilly\'s struggles weaken until she became motionless, her breathing ceased.

After confirming Dilly\'s lack of heartbeat, Logan wraps his body in animal hides and, under the cover of the heavy rain, exits the Exile organization\'s camp.When they reached the edge of the lake, they used a dagger to cut several wounds on Dilly\'s body, causing blood to flow out and emitting a strong smell of blood, and then threw Dilly\'s body into the lake.

However, he failed to notice that as soon as Dilly fell into the water, she opened her eyes.

She swam with all her might toward the distance.

Despite her consciousness growing hazy from holding her breath for so long, Dilly never dared to surface.

Worse still, she felt intense pain in her abdomen as the potion continued to take effect.

"No, I must survive!" Dilly silently screamed, and suddenly she thought of Enzo.

Though she had little interaction with him, every appearance of Enzo had left her in awe.

In her mind, Enzo was an extremely mysterious figure.

Desperately, she called out his name in her heart, pleading, "Save me."

The Crimson Star Tribe.

The long-awaited heavy rain had given many in the tribe some free time, and Amy and others could gather together in triumph.

But Enzo was puzzled as to why Freya had so quickly integrated into Amy, Tia, Clara, and the others\' small group, blending in seamlessly and even discussing how to deal with him in the future.

Women were truly strange.

As he mentally complained, Enzo\'s expression suddenly changed.

He heard a cry for help.

"Enzo, what\'s wrong?"

Amy was the first to notice Enzo\'s odd expression and asked with concern.

Enzo shook his head slightly, signaling Amy not to worry, and said, "I think I heard someone calling for help."

Amy frowned and replied, "I didn\'t hear anything."

The others also shook their heads, indicating they had not heard any cry for help.

Something\'s wrong!

Enzo suddenly stood up.

He was sure he had not misheard the cry for help.

However, since Amy and the others did not hear it, it meant the cry was not from around the tribe\'s camp.

Next moment, Enzo closed his eyes slightly.

He perceived everything in the jungle, including the insects underground, the fish in the water, and the small animals in the bushes.

Yet, there were no cries for help from the tribe\'s members.

"Not in the jungle?"

Enzo murmured and began to sense again.

This time, he finally saw it.

In the lake, Dilly\'s body was floating, her numerous wounds swelling from the immersion in the water. Not far away, a few large piranhas were approaching.

In a critical situation, Enzo had to descend with his consciousness.

With his immense spiritual power surging through Dilly\'s marks, Enzo conjured vines that pierced the piranhas and then lifted Dilly. Black wings appeared behind him as he carried her back to the shore.

"Her condition is very bad. She\'s close to death."

Enzo, though not deeply concerned about Dilly—whom he considered an ordinary friend at most—couldn\'t ignore the situation.

But he could never turn a blind eye to death.

Dilly had valuable skills that could be useful at times.

With that in mind, Enzo channeled some of his spiritual power into life energy and infused it into Dilly.

The life energy rapidly healed her wounds, but she remained unconscious and her body grew increasingly cold.

Realizing the urgency, Enzo lifted Dilly.

He used his black wings to fly at high speed, transporting her from the jungle to the Crimson Star Tribe camp. This, however, led to a rapid depletion of his spiritual power.

Fortunately, Qaidam Lake was not too far from the jungle, and before his energy was completely spent, Enzo managed to return to the tribe. His consciousness returned to his body, and he felt dizzy with vision blurring.

"Enzo!"

The others shouted anxiously.

When Enzo awoke again, the rain had stopped, and the sun was high in the sky.

Amy was by his side and sighed in relief upon seeing him awake. Noticing his inquiring look, she immediately understood and said, "Under Mr. Mina\'s treatment, Dilly is out of danger, but her recovery is not looking promising. Also, Mr. Mina asked that you arrange for him some materials—two doses of supernatural essence and a smile flower that\'s been growing for over two hundred years…"

"What does he need all that for?" Enzo asked.

Mina\'s existence wasn\'t much of a secret to Amy; Enzo had already informed her about it.

Amy shook her head, replying, "I don\'t know either."

Enzo sat up and said, "Alright, I\'ll ask him myself."

He then inquired, "Where is Dilly now?"

Amy answered, "In Tia\'s room."

Enzo and Amy headed to Tia\'s residence.

They encountered the floating soul of Mina and Nellies at the door.

Seeing Enzo\'s arrival, Mina immediately floated over and spoke first, "The person you brought back was fed corrosive powder, but oddly enough, there seems to be some special force within her that protected her, preventing her internal organs from being corroded immediately. However, since too much time has passed and the drowning caused her to lose consciousness, her organs have still been severely damaged. Your life energy healed the external injuries, but the strange energy blocked it from healing her internal injuries."

"Is her life in danger?" Enzo asked.

Mina shook his head, "No."

Relieved, Enzo said, "That\'s good to hear."

He then asked, "Mina, what do you need those materials for?"

Mina responded seriously, "I need to create a body to house my soul. I don\'t want to remain in this spectral form forever, as it causes continuous depletion of my soul. Also, many tasks are impossible to perform in a purely spiritual state when preparing potions."

Understanding the reason, Enzo agreed, "I\'ll have the Adventurer\'s Association issue a quest for that."

Mina expressed his gratitude and added, "One more thing: I intend to have Nellies as my assistant. Although her potion-making skills are dreadful, she\'s the best available in the Crimson Star Tribe besides Freya. Additionally, I need a space to build a Potion Hut."

"Those are no problem."

Enzo agreed to everything.

Mina\'s requests indicated his intention to make potions.

Potions would greatly advance the Crimson Star Tribe.

After discussing with Mina, Enzo entered the room where Tia and others were present, and saw Dilly lying on the bed. Her condition had improved significantly since the previous night, with clear signs of breathing.

What exactly happened to her could only be revealed once Dilly woke up.

Fortunately, Dilly didn\'t stay unconscious for long. She woke up by the evening.

Upon learning that Enzo had saved her, Dilly expressed her deep gratitude and recounted her ordeal.

Everyone found the story astonishing.

Amy commented, "So, the manager of the Exile camp, Logan, turned out to be like this."

Tia, with a hint of sarcasm, said, "Those people are really foolish. A potion that can bring such great power quickly and without side effects could never be so easily made or sold so cheaply."

Clara expressed her concern, "If many people from the tribes around Qaidam Lake have used this potion, doesn\'t that mean they will eventually lose their sanity and become murderous beasts? Such a change would certainly impact the jungle."

"Also, there are quite a few adventurers operating around Qaidam Lake." She added.

The group discussed, looking increasingly troubled.

Enzo was eventually informed of the situation, and he, too, had no good solutions. He could only instruct the tribe members to stay away from Qaidam Lake temporarily and recall those who were exploring the area.

However, the trouble didn\'t end there.

In the early hours of the following morning, several panicked tribe members rushed into the camp.

They bore signs of beast claws, and two of them had their arms bitten off. Had it not been for Neville, who was patrolling the jungle\'s edge and rescued them in time, they would have already been prey for the beasts.

Enzo\'s face grew grim as he asked, "Neville, what happened?"

Neville reported, "Lord Enzo, based on our observations, all the beasts and supernatural creatures in the depths of Plata Plain have come out and are hunting humans! They will invade the jungle within three days at most!"
