The bite almost connected, almost.
For a mont, when the Flying atpiles went in for a bite, I felt like I was a goner and my eyes instinctively closed. There were two Flying atpiles who went in for the kill, one of them aid at my head while the other aid at the Quetzalcoatl. Upon closer look, I could tell that they didn't have fangs, their mouth salivated like mad though.
Long story short, they didn't stand against the barrier I erected in a split second.
One may wonder why I was a bit frightened by the Flying atpiles a few monts ago but that was because I didn't have sothing to defend myself against them. But with the abundance of the virus inside the Quetzalcoatl's body, I could utilize my Virus Qi Core, absorb the virus, and create an impenetrable barrier that would never give out until the Quetzalcoatl is rid of the virus. It was an easy charge and output approach that I totally overlooked a few monts ago.
"How are you feeling?" I called out, striking up a conversation since I felt rather awkward with the Flying atpiles constantly biting and drooling over us. "Is your head clearing up a little bit? Or is it a bit hazy?"
"It's a bit ha how did you know that? Are you so sort of Mythical Beast doctor?" The Quetzalcoatl said in admiration.
"Not really, I just experienced being infected by the Virus, that's all. "In any case, I'm almost done. Can you fly as soon as you're healed?" I asked.
The Quetzalcoatl shook her head. "I drained most of my Qi Energy trying to stop the virus from invading my brain... and now I don't have any. You don't have to worry about , Yongrui. Once you heal , you can leave to fend for myself. I'm sure I'll be able to bear it and escape."
Talk about reverse psychology. After she said that, how could I leave her alone? That would be ungentlemanly, won't it?
Oh well, as long as I do my best, we'll be able to manage.
While I continued healing the Quetzalcoatl, I realized that I left the Sky Kingdom defenseless from the monsters. Fortunately, they followed us all the way down here. Had they not done that, I would've been left with no choice but to defend both the Sky Kingdom and the Quetzalcoatl. If that were to happen, I'd have to sacrifice one or the other.
And yes, I've just proven that staying absolutely still while doing sothing in a life-and-death situation would actually make the mind overthink. I should probably stop doing that, unnecessarily bothering Hui-ying and the System while they're doing all they can to help .
Once a little less than half an hour has passed, I thanked Hui-ying and took over healing and skills usage. Since it was sowhat bearable, I decided to give Hui-ying and the System a break for now. Who knows when I'll need their help.
"Hui-ying, once I've completely absorbed the Virus Qi Core from the Quetzalcoatl's body, we'd be sitting ducks... what do you think we should do?" I asked.
