Chapter 868 – The Role of Reputation
Chapter 868 – The Role of Reputation
Sol reattached his healer’s license and stood in the middle of the sea, selflessly treating every wizard in the Court of Judgment.
This greatly reduced the mortality rate of sorcerers.
Soon, the sorcerers who were also fighting in the other defense zones knew about the situation here and also sent people specifically to send over sorcerers who were heavily contaminated and unable to recover on their own.
As time passed, even Sol, who could easily remove the black tide contamination from others’ bodies, felt a tremendous amount of pressure.
After all, Saul’s healing was actually absorbing the Black Tide contamination in other people’s bodies into his own body and then sealing it in unimportant limb parts such as his fingertips.
If he absorbed too much Black Tide Pollution in a short period of time, and there was no way to discharge and seal it in time, he might faint due to overload, just like when he was in the Pure Spirit Sorcerer Tower before.
Even if he was now a third-ranked sorcerer and his strength was incomparable to back then, he couldn’t absorb black tide pollution endlessly.
But even though Saul was now feeling the pressure, he had no intention of stopping the healing.
For one thing, this battle was extremely important, and even if he wasn’t one of Nefertiti’s people, he didn’t want anything to happen to this continent.
Secondly, Saul had originally planned to do something after the Black Tide receded.
And this thing was difficult to achieve with his identity as an outsider. But if he had a high reputation in the Judgment Court, it would be easier to get the chance to try.
Saul believed that as long as he got that chance, he would be able to achieve his goal.
Originally, Saul wanted to make a name for himself at the “Masquerade” of the Diary Warning and help out a bit, but now he has accidentally become a crucial healer in a normal battle.
If Saul hadn’t done his best to save every contaminated wizard, the number of people who could still fight would have been cut in half!
It was also for this reason that the wizards, whether they had received his treatment or not, would have respect in their eyes when they gazed at Saul.
Some even showed the same excited look they had when facing the Lord of the Ruling Court.
Feeling the attention from all directions, Saul knew that no matter what the final outcome of this battle was, his reputation here had been brushed full.
No, brushed up!
Just ……
Saul’s body swayed and nearly sank into the sea, but he clenched his teeth and managed to hold on without collapsing.
At this time, two more sorcerers were sent to Saul.
These two were in a very poor state, and the reactions of the early stages of alienation had already appeared on their bodies.
As they looked at Saul, their faces revealed a look of guilt. These two had actually been treated by Saul once, and knew that Saul was likewise having a very hard time right now, so they had fought until they could not hold on any longer before they had to come over.
Seeing someone come over, Saul’s originally slightly furrowed brows immediately relaxed, and without hesitation, he beckoned to the two, “Come over here!”
His movements were as decisive as his voice.
The two sorcerers didn’t dare to delay and rushed forward.
Saul’s right and left hands grabbed the two men’s arms at the same time, and then his fingertips transformed into tentacle-like forms, stretching along their arms all the way to their most contaminated parts.
At this point, his translucent tentacles that were originally supposed to be gray were already close to black and completely opaque.
Even though Saul was about to be at full capacity at this point, his movements to heal the contamination were still very fast.
In less than a minute, the two soon-to-be-alienated sorcerers were basically back to normal.
Saul closed his eyes and withdrew his hand, not reopening his eyes until two minutes had passed.
When he opened his eyes, the few sorcerers in front of him were surprisingly not gone.
“Any more problems with the body?” Saul asked.
“No.” One of the low-ranked wizards took the initiative to answer, then showed concern on his face, “Lord Saul, are you alright?”
“I’m fine, if you guys are rested, hurry back, if you don’t go back, how will the others dare to rotate over for treatment?”
Saul boarded up his face like a serious commander. But none of the wizards he chided felt dissatisfied.
Just now, they were only concerned about Sol, and since the other party was fine, it was only natural to return to the battle as soon as possible.
Saul was an outsider, and at this time the ruling court didn’t force him to do the healing work, but he did it anyway.
Although the others also knew that Saul was doing it so that the Black Tide wouldn’t have an incalculable impact on this world, it couldn’t stop them from developing a kind of trust and respect for Saul within their hearts.
Saul narrowed his eyes and watched as thin, translucent threads emerged from the two low-ranked wizards in front of him, leaping to touch themselves.
Two little wizards who were easily touched, ah.
Saul smiled in his heart, although after a long period of high-frequency healing, he hadn’t reached his limit yet. But there was no need to deliberately emphasize this point.
Letting the others go back, Saul took advantage of the fact that no one was currently coming to heal him, and grabbed the time to recover his own spiritual power.
There was also the black tide pollution that had been absorbed out, to be transferred and compressed as soon as possible. This would also prolong the time he could hold on to the treatment.
But two hours, it’s a bit difficult to hold on to it.
Despite Sol’s healing, there were still sorcerers who suffered casualties in the battle.
The most crucial thing was that without the defense spell formation, there were still quite a few Red Sea Trees that were pushed over by the Black Tide monsters or suffered injuries due to being affected by the battle.
The outermost layer of Red Sea Trees had already been thinned out, and the damage continued.
Sol thought for a moment and sent a message to a wizard on the shore who was in charge of communications, “Please call His Majesty Alyxandrah over.”
“Call the Eternal Night Emperor over?” The sorcerer on the other side was stunned, but because Saul had enough prestige at this point, he only hesitated for a moment and didn’t refuse, “Yes, I’ll immediately send someone to fetch him over.”
Perhaps the other party was thinking that Saul had invited Alessandra over because he wanted to use the other party’s bloodline to help the Red Sea Tree.
After all, the matter of the Eternal Night Emperor wanting to nourish the Red Sea Tree with his blood was not a secret amongst the official wizards of the Court of Judgment.
Seeing the other party follow his instructions and start to act, Saul calculated in his mind, “When Xander comes over, immediately plant the mithril.”
Regardless of the outcome of this battle, it was basically doomed that the Red Sea Grove would be metamorphosed.
Now that the Lord of the Ruling Court was absent, and Royer was also absent, for the sake of the greater good, Saul naturally had to prevent the Black Tide from polluting the shore.
At this time, no one could stop him, and there was no reason to stop him.
However Xander had not yet appeared, but an unexpected person had returned.
Alfonso, who came out of nowhere from a black mist.
The crowd had been nervous for a moment as this black mist approached, but when they saw Alfonso coming out of it, they almost cheered.
At this time, every additional third-ranked sorcerer fighting would be able to hold out for quite a while longer.
Although they didn’t know where Alfonso had gone before and how he suddenly came back, as long as the person came back, then everything was fine.
Only Saul, joy with surprise, “Alfonso didn’t die? Could it be that my actions caused a change in his ending?”
Wanting to change Alfonso and Royer’s death is actually very difficult, because an existence that can kill a third-order sorcerer is hardly affected by an ordinary butterfly effect.
And with diary warnings of longer dead ends, it’s easy to have something you thought you did to change the ending, but in fact became a contributing factor that led to the original ending.
Like Stuart’s disappearance, which was likely caused by Floco, who was called over by Saul.
And the fact that the other party hasn’t shown up after all this time can only mean that it’s bad luck.
