The Platinum Eye Attack Incident (7)
With several Return Tickets, Xu Huo traveled through different Sub-districts at different Wormhole Points. When he realized midway that the Suitcase Man hadn't caught up, he stopped briefly at one of them. Meanwhile, news exploded across Dimension Below, reporting that the Suitcase Man and Sun Eye had started a war at the Platinum Eye.
Xu Huo guessed that the meteor-like streaks of light he'd seen earlier at the Platinum Eye had come from Super Players. He just wasn't sure which ones. But since Super Players had gone to war, the Suitcase Man probably wouldn't have time to chase him for a while.
Bai Kou woke up once along the way, but after using two removal items, she passed out again. They had already used the Core of Eternal Sleep, the best healing Potion Xu Huo could buy from the game platform at his A-class player level, and surgical instruments. The potent Potions and her own strong recovery ability meant that her internal and external injuries weren't fatal. The only problem was the poison in her system.
The poison repeatedly ate away at her internal organs and nerves. It was difficult to eliminate, and every time it flared up, it worsened her injuries. Bai Kou suffered in her unconscious state, but her body could barely react anymore, only twitching constantly. Those spasms seemed more like involuntary bodily responses than signs that she was conscious.
Xu Huo used up all the concentrated King Fungus extract he had stored, but every time her condition improved, the poison soon returned. After Bai Kou's body repaired itself several times, the cracks in her skin began healing more slowly. Before long, she was covered in blood again, and the repeated ordeals had left her weak.
This couldn't go on.
