Chapter 582 - 70: The Poisonous Scheme
The investigation of the Blood-colored Divine Might Army was prioritized. Though Questasa and the Liu Family provided detection assistance, Aragon was still utterly exhausted.
"I... I really can’t go on." Clearly suffering from severe magical exhaustion, Aragon’s face was as pale as death.
"The Skill ’Holy Day Flaming Wheel’ is a powerful ability of the Third Transition late phase; the strain on my second brother is indeed immense," Augustus began saying, "and the divine crystals were used up six months ago for cultivation purposes, leaving him with no choice but to rest for half a month to alleviate the damage caused by the depletion of his Magic Power."
Lu Hong nodded in agreement, addressing Aragon, "Second Brother, you have had a tough few days. Get some good rest. The Empire has already sent a reply; they will be lending a group of personnel from the Holy Court, who should arrive at the Second Town soon."
"With that, I am at ease," Aragon said, settling into a wooden chair before waving his hand, "you two brothers don’t need to worry about me. I need to properly rest for a few days. Go tend to your matters. Dealing with the agents of the Underworld cannot happen without you, Big Brother."
"Alright, second brother, you rest well. Tonight, the third brother and I will come to see you, and I’ll bring you a nice bottle of wine."
"Mm-hm, off you go."
Once Lu Hong and Augustus had departed, Aragon could no longer hold himself together, spewing a mouthful of dark blood.
The agents of the Underworld hiding within the Blood-colored Divine Might Army were not lacking in strength, and they harbored deep hatred for Aragon, thus executing some kind of method to infuse him with the power of the Underworld.
In the beginning, Aragon was able to suppress it, but as the Magic Power dried up, this force roaming his body finally revealed its fangs, violently disrupting the functions within its host.
Trembling, Aragon took out a golden Magic Potion from his Space Ring and swallowed it, his complexion then somewhat recovered.
