Eureka, who was wearing a long black dress, looked rather ethereal in the frosty air.
She was staring at the transparent ice coffin with her back facing them.
"Lady Eureka." Angor bowed to Eureka.
Leon mentioned that Eureka hadn't visited Jon's place for a long time. But why was she standing in front of Jon's house? Did she know he was coming?
"Come in." Eureka didn't turn around. She stared at the coffin for a while before she spoke.
Angor entered the room and decided to ignore Eureka for now. Instead, he focused on the ice coffin.
When he saw Jon in the ice coffin, his eyes widened in shock.
Leon did not lie to him. He did not even need to examine Jon's condition to know how bad it was.
When Angor left home four years ago, Jon's body was as thin as a twig, but at least he still looked human. But now, Chown was almost like a skeleton with a thin layer of skin on it.
No one would believe that there was a living person inside the coffin.
There was a tube connected to Jon's heart, which was connected to a double-necked bottle nearby. The bottle contained two layers of liquid. The bottom layer was black, while the top layer was green. Eighty percent of the liquid was black, while the remaining twenty percent was green.
"It's called Life Absorption Water. Once the green liquid turns into black liquid, the person inside the coffin will die." It was Eureka who explained the situation to Angor.
"Xien's Life-Absorbing Water?" Angor looked up.
"Oh? You know about it? "Eureka looked at Angor with a curious look.
"It's a liquid that contains the essence of the Xien Realm. It's a very precious material."
"So you know about it." Eureka gave Angor a meaningful glance. "That's why he's still alive. Thanks to the Life Drawing Water."
Of course, the Life-Absorbing Water didn't belong to Leon. It must have come from Eureka.
Was she trying to tell Angor that Jon's life depended on this bottle of Life-Absorbing Water?
Angor sneered in his mind. "The best way to use the Life-Absorbing Water is to use the Three-Knot Petri Method, which minimizes the side effects. But now, you're using a more dangerous method because Jon's heart has a hole in it. "
It was obvious that Eureka was trying to mislead him by saying that the Life-Drawing Water was the cause of the damage. However, Angor knew the correct way to use the Life-Drawing Water, which was why Eureka failed to mislead him.
Eureka wasn't embarrassed by Angor's accusation. Instead, she gave him a curious look. "So you know something about alchemy as well, huh?"
"Of course I have to find a way to save Jon's life." Angor stepped forward and scanned Jon's body with his spirit feelers.
Eureka didn't stop him. Instead, she asked some questions from time to time, but Angor didn't give her any answers.
His answers were polite, but they weren't sincere.
Eureka's expression darkened. "You know my nickname, so you must know something about me. Even if you don't, you should know why I'm here, right? "
He wanted to deny it, but it was too late for him to do so since he accidentally called Eureka by her nickname earlier this afternoon.
"I know."
"Since you know, then you should be clear. I've been wanted by Goman King for a long time, and I don't mind being hunted down by one more person, such as the famous Phantom Master in the south. " Leon noticed the threat in Eureka's words as well. "I'll forgive you for what you did this afternoon. First, this is your home, and second, I'm doing it for Sunders' sake.
"But since you're so rude to me, even if I kill you, it's still in line with the rules of the wizarding world."
Angor's hand stopped moving. He wanted to keep talking to Eureka, but he couldn't.
"I'm sorry, Lady Eureka. I'm just a little distracted by my mentor's condition."
Eureka glanced at Angor. She didn't care whether Angor was lying or not. "I heard from Leon that Jon was your closest friend."
Angor nodded. "That's right. Jon is my mentor."
"Do you know where he came from?"
"Earth." Angor considered for a moment. "Jon once told me that he came from a world called Earth. It's a strange plane where machines are being developed. "
Leon told Angor that Leon didn't tell anyone about Earth, but Angor didn't believe that Eureka wouldn't ask Leon about it.
Leon was just a mortal, and a supernatural wizard like Eureka wouldn't even need to ask questions to get information from him.
Angor was sure that Eureka knew that Jon came from Earth. His brother, Leon, never liked Jon, so he didn't know much about Earth. Eureka didn't mind him telling Eureka that.
According to Leon's explanation, Eureka would only think of Jon as an outsider from another plane that had yet to be discovered by the sorcerers.
"I've heard about a world where machines are being developed. Grand Plane, for example. I heard that Grand Plane has a lot of machines and puppets. Is Earth the same? "Eureka faked a casual look.
"Instead of saying that Earth is similar to the Grand Realm, it's more like Yirong Nation on the Fey Continent. At least, like Professor Jon said, Evron Nation has a metal train that can carry people, tall buildings that reach the clouds, and cities made of concrete. "
Eureka carefully observed Angor's expression and confirmed that he wasn't lying. She knew that Angor was telling the truth.
Of course, Angor was not lying. However, he only talked about general topics. He did not mention the universe where Earth was located, the different physical constants between Earth and Earth, or the core of science and technology. He didn't think that Eureka would know so much about it anyway.
Through the questions, Angor learned a lot about Jon's current condition.
Jon's body was in a very dangerous condition, which was mainly caused by the invasion of the "Great Consciousness". However, as the invasion deepened, Jon's body began to show signs of change.
According to Mara's report, Jon's body was fine. Perhaps he was being targeted by some unknown curse.
But now, Chown's body was also in a situation. His bodily functions had reached the limits of exhaustion, and his balance was out of balance. Even without the invasion of the great willpower, his body was on the verge of collapse.
"Lady Eureka, can Professor Jon be saved?" Angor asked with a grim look.
Eureka was satisfied with Angor's answer. "His body is extremely weak. His soul and body are being rejected by the" Great Consciousness ". Plus, there's the Life Drain. All three of them are in a relatively balanced state. Breaking any one of them will cause Jon's body to collapse.
But there's nothing we can do to save him. "
"How long do you think he has left, Lady Eureka?"
"Half a year at most, and he has to stay frozen," Eureka said.
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He took out a thin card from his bracelet. "Can I use this to save Professor Jon?"
Eureka glanced at the card and was taken aback. "An Inscription Card? How did you get a forbidden inscription card from the Supreme Sect? "
"Wait a minute. This isn't a normal rune card." Eureka used her spirit feelers to take the card from Angor's hand. "So it's the Abyssal Rune Card from the Scholar of Cruelty."
"It's just an ordinary copy card. It can only resist 50% of the corrosion effect. If Jon's body didn't change, he could live for another 20 years. But now, he can only live for two more years. And that's when the balance between the three is still intact. " Eureka paused. "But if you use this card on Jon, the balance will be broken."
"What if all three are strengthened at the same time? At the same time, we can use the rune card to heal his body and add Life Drain. Can we keep the balance? "
Eureka pondered for a moment. "Yes, I can, but it's hard to maintain the balance. Plus, the Life-Drawing Water is very precious. I spent almost all of my wealth to buy one bottle before I left Fey Continent. It's priceless."
He took out a bottle from his bracelet, which contained a green liquid. "I have Life Replenishing Water."
Eureka stared at the full bottle of Life Drain in a daze.
Could it be that the Life Replenishing Water in the outside world had reached the point where it could be found everywhere? How could an ordinary apprentice just take it out like that?
Was this really the same Life Drain that cost ten thousand crystals?!
Eureka's calm mind suddenly changed when she saw the bottle of Life Drain. She began to look at Angor in a different way.
She was now looking at Angor with curiosity.
"How did you get Life Drain?"
"I bought it."
"How can you afford it?"
Angor glanced at Eureka. "Why not?"
Eureka's heart skipped a beat. She thought Angor was looking at her with disdain.
"So you're going to use this to extend Jon's life for two more years?"
"There's no other way, is there?"
"But he's still going to die in two years."
"I'll find a way to save him. I swear I'll do it." Angor's eyes were filled with despair. As long as there was hope, he would try his best.
