Chapter 79 Weakness is Original Sin
Chapter 79 Weakness is Original Sin
In the world of Harry Potter, the phoenix is an extremely rare creature among magical creatures.
Furthermore, the Phoenix can even withstand the Avada Kedavra curse.
The miraculous healing power of tears has been inherited in this world as well.
However, this time it seems there's a change.
This wasn't the first time Lucci had used Phoenix's healing abilities; he had tested them before.
But no flames appeared. Was it because of that previous "rebirth" that his abilities changed?
Gold's previously depleted vitality was replenished by Phoenix's tears.
The flames on his body gave him a feeling of "rebirth," as if his body was being revitalized.
Even the genetic collapse caused by the "backlash" was alleviated.
"How is it?" Lucci asked.
Gold felt much better and struggled to his feet, continuing to write on the ground and communicate with Lucci.
First, I expressed my gratitude.
Their gaze then fell upon Phoenix.
"Then let's continue with the previous question. The reason I saved you is naturally because I need something in return..."
Lucci began by explaining his own identity.
Before they were captured, the Pachi people already had little contact with the outside world, let alone after being used as test subjects, which made it even more impossible for them to have any contact with the outside world.
He said he didn't understand what Sky Arena or the poster was.
But he also understood Lucci's demands.
Want to learn about the "divine word" in their holy land?
The way Lucci rescued him earlier suggested that the Holy Land might have fallen into enemy hands.
It's completely certain now.
It was also their dereliction of duty; if one of them had stayed in the village, the family line would not have been broken.
"Although we've rescued you, this matter isn't over yet."
"You should know how important you are to them, right?"
In a world with supernatural powers, one can certainly rely on personal strength, but Lucci's strength is not yet at the level where he can single-handedly take on an entire nation.
Even Lucci would find dealing with such a large corporation troublesome.
"Now, unless you're willing to be taken away by them, you have to leave the Basen Rainforest. Otherwise, your presence will only bring danger to this place."
"Of course, even if you leave, the Patch tribe is not necessarily safe. As long as you don't die or get caught by them, what happened to you will happen to your tribe as well."
Lucci's words infuriated Gold. They were simply living peacefully here, so why were they being targeted like this?
In such a world, weakness is the original sin, especially when one possesses some "value".
The same is true for the Kuruta tribe.
Their clan was wiped out simply because the fiery red-eyed woman was one of the seven most beautiful women.
Ethnic minorities like these, who do not interact with the outside world, will eventually face extinction. The issue of marriage and childbirth alone is enough to cause their population to dwindle.
Gold was furious and wanted revenge, but his experience told him otherwise.
The enemy was a behemoth, far beyond what he or the Patch tribe could handle. Even his escape from the research base was only possible because other test subjects rioted, giving him the opportunity to escape.
After calming down from his anger, he now needed to consider not only his own safety, but also the safety of his people.
This is their home; they cannot choose to leave.
And even if they leave, where can they go?
Now even the sacred site is facing problems, and the safety of the village is also being affected.
That "devouring" power might be formidable, but Gold fears the opponent might have a way to counter it.
He also doesn't want to see the Basen rainforest being damaged by technological weapons.
What should I do? What should I do?
Gold sadly realized that, in that case, what was the point of escaping?
Looking up at Lucci, perhaps this was also a solution.
If it were the former Gorde, he would never have considered it; it was a source of pride for the Patch tribe.
But years of experience have worn away all his rough edges.
Start writing with your paws.
If we, the Pachi people, submit to you, can you protect our safety?
The host of Sky Arena doesn't know how powerful it is.
But the fact that Lucci could go to their holy site and activate and use it proves that the other party is extraordinary.
"I cannot give you guarantees, but I can give you the strength to protect yourselves."
He's unlikely to offer any direct help.
The power to protect oneself? What power?
"So, whether or not you need to go back to the village now is a decision you can't make for the Patch tribe right now," Lucci asked.
Go back to the village! Gold was lost in memories, recalling some distant past.
Gold nodded.
Moreover, one should inform one's own people about what happens to them and make preparations in advance.
Phoenix has disappeared once again.
The fog reappeared.
Gold thought to himself, "Sure enough, once could be considered luck, but the second time is not."
Lucci brought Gold to Patch Village.
First, it was discovered by the village children.
After using this ability several times, Lucci gained a basic understanding of the situation in Patch Village.
The use of special spatial abilities has carved out the space of Patch Village in the Basen Rainforest, which is still within the Basen Rainforest.
If Lucci were to use an analogy, this ability would be similar to opening up an "alternate dimension".
Pachi village is actually quite large. In addition to the village itself, there are their own plantations, a small forest, and even a small lake.
If Patch Village could be self-sufficient, it would be considered very safe if it weren't for the need to maintain this "alternate dimension".
We stopped at the village entrance and didn't go in.
After all, Gold's current appearance is a bit frightening.
Monroe and Benson rushed to the village entrance.
They were still discussing with some of their tribesmen whether or not to accept Lucci's help.
Some tribesmen were unwilling to accept Lucci's help, believing that once Gaunt reached level 200, they would be able to find a way to awaken their Nen.
They can solve the problem themselves.
Gaunt is the strongest person in Patch Village, apart from the chieftain and the priest. Even without using Nen, Gaunt is the strongest.
He went to the Sky Arena to activate Nen.
When Lucci returned to Patch Village without anyone to guide him, it was enough to shock them.
Monroe and Benson weren't stupid; they quickly guessed the possibility.
Lucci must have entered their clan's sacred land from the "Devouring Land," otherwise there's no other explanation.
Of course, another thing that intrigued them was the tiger-headed, human-bodied being following Lucci.
Gold looked at the Patch people one by one. He had been away from the village for too long, and he knew very few people left.
After returning to the Basen rainforest, he only encountered the Pachi people who were out and about.
"Lord Lucci, what's going on?" Monroe asked, noticing that Lucci was shirtless and covered in battle markings.
