Chapter 1757 You Have Been Warned
âWhat a tone! Well, we can leave anytime, but⦠We need something from you.â
âWhat is it?â
âThe antidote. Weâll disappear before you right away as soon as we receive it,â Draven stated.
The man standing in the middle, who looked like their leader, explained, âThereâs no antidote for the disease. However, it wonât end your life right away. There will probably be two months left. Use the remaining time to enjoy life.â
Damien found it blatantly ridiculous. âEnjoy life? How funny! Our man is being tormented by the symptoms. Heâs literally living in hell every day. Itâs a miracle if he could survive a month in that dying condition!â
âDonât worry. Ten days later, his tolerance for pain will increase. Consequently, the torturing moments will reduce significantly. He will definitely be able to enjoy life in the last month before he shut his eyes for good.â
He can still live for two months without the antidote?
Evan could not bring himself to believe those words.
He stepped forward and made himself clear. âWeâre here for the antidote. Without it, we wonât leave this place. Speak up if you have any requests. We can discuss further.â
âAre you negotiating? Hmph! The people of Daemonic Mount donât do that. Anyone who trespasses the Daemonic Mount will be poisoned to death!â
Evan narrowed his eyes as he stared at their unwavering faces quizzically.
âAre you the representative of Daemonic Mount? Youâre the head here?â
âNo, Iâm not, but you wonât be able to meet the leader. Calculate your risk and leave now.â
âMr. Seet, it seems like they wonât barge until we teach them a hard lesson.â
Evan was curious to find out how great those fighters were. With a quick reminder urging the rest to be careful, he exchanged glances with Draven and Damien, indicating that they were ready to strike.
A brutal battle might break out anytime soon. As Evan studied the masked menâs techniques and gestures, he realized that they were very agile. He had never seen someone so fast and flexible!
Seeing that Damien was struggling to retaliate, Juan jumped in to help.
The smarty-pants had noticed the patterns of their fearsome attacks. Hence, he mimicked their style but topped it up with an even faster speed to break the enemiesâ intentional blitz. As a result, he was able to counter their assaults.
âNot bad, young fellow.â
âIâve experienced your strength. Now, itâs time to taste your own medicine.â
Swiftly, he launched a powerful kick, only to retrieve it mid-way and replaced it with a double punch. The trick worked like a charm. His opponent did not expect the sudden change in fighting tactics and was struck to the ground.
When the masked man finally got hold of himself, he cast a puzzling look at Juan.
How tricky! Heâs indeed something.
âWell done. Youâre fast, clever, and sharp. Which sect sent you?â
Juan cackled. âMe? Iâm a godsend; I was sent by your ancestors to kick your butt.â
âTsk! How arrogant! I can take you on alone if you dare.â
Damien commented, âI didnât do anything. You were fighting one-on-one with Mr. Juan just now.â
The masked man was infuriated. âNo doubt you kept your hands to yourself toward the end of the battle. Your unwanted presence at the corner was a distraction. Get lost!â
Damien burst out laughing. âLosers will always be losers whether I stand next to you or two hundred meters away from you. Just admit defeat!â
âCut the crap! I dare you to a one-on-one duel. Howâs that?â
Juan gave Damien a look. The latter turned to Evan, who then nodded, signaling him to move aside.
After that, the masked men went all out and charged against Juan aggressively.
Thankfully, Juan was vigilant and nimble in his moves. He was excellent at speculating the masked manâs next action and managed to counter him beautifully.
