Chen Mo had been observing the surroundings with his Spiritual Sense, so he had long known that the poison inside Qian Zhenghao's body had melted away and that he had already regained consciousness.
However, although Qian Zhenghao had expelled the poison, his body had probably not yet recovered. If Chen Mo put him down, he might not be able to keep up with the others. So Chen Mo continued carrying him without letting go.
"Eh, you've recovered?" Ouyang Nana was somewhat surprised when she heard Qian Zhenghao's voice. Earlier, she had seen his face turn black, while the wound on his calf had become a purplish black. He had looked as though he might die from poisoning at any moment, yet he had woken up after such a short time.
It seemed that the Detoxification Pill her aunt had given him really worked well.
"Yes. Thank you, captain. The Detoxification Pill you gave me was very effective. I feel like the poison inside my body has mostly been expelled now. I'm just still a little weak. My body feels limp, and I can't muster any strength." Qian Zhenghao spoke somewhat awkwardly.
What he meant was that if the entire squad retreated, he hoped Chen Mo would continue carrying him back across the lake.
If he had to rely on himself, he could not even walk right now. Between the embarrassment of being carried and staying here alone, he naturally chose to be carried across the Iron Chain Bridge to the other side. As for remaining here, that was out of the question. If more gray wolves came, he would not survive.
"Don't worry. If we retreat, we won't leave you behind." Ouyang Nan glanced at Qian Zhenghao before speaking.
The others said nothing after hearing Ouyang Nan's words.
