Chapter 2546 Join Forces
The whole time, Brutus had regarded Jared as a lowly villager from the mountains, never taking thelatter seriously. However, he was wounded by Jared now, not to mention in front of everyone. That wasa humiliation Brutus couldn't stand.
He was about to attack Jared again but was stopped by Francois.
“Brat, can you tell me how you still have your strength after consuming my pill?” Francois asked,noticing Jared wasn't as simple as he seemed.
“Are you talking about that Weakening Pill?” Jared sneered. “Such a low-grade pill has no effect onme.”
Jared wasn't boasting. If his capabilities were fully restored, that Weakening Pill would indeed beuseless on him.
Hearing that, Francois furrowed his brows. “You're an alchemist too?”
“I only know a bit of the basics, but even the limited knowledge I have is a hundred times moreextensive than yours,” Jared mocked with a disdainful look.
At that point, even Francois was at the limit of his patience. Jared had repeatedly insulted him in frontof Chev, causing him to feel humiliated.
“I'd like to see how you're a hundred times more competent than I am!” After Francois finished hissentence, a silver light shot out from his hand, traveling at extreme speed like a shooting star.
Meanwhile, Leifr and a girl were observing the fight not far away.
Leifr tensed up and was ready to lend Jared a helping hand when he saw Francois attacking Jared.
After all, in Leifr's opinion, Jared was not Francois' match.
Unexpectedly, just as Leifr was about to interfere, he was halted by the girl next to him.
“Stop. This is certainly not the extent of his abilities. His powers seem to be suppressed, or maybe he'sinjured and hasn't fully recovered.” The girl riveted her eyes on Jared, capturing every move he made.
Meanwhile, Jared skillfully dodged Francois' incoming attack, then swiftly stepped backward.
The only reason Jared had stopped running was to buy time for Ali and the rest. Now that they hadalready run far, there was no need for him to continue fighting.
Besides, Jared didn't have the confidence to win against Francois in a duel.
Francois sensed Jared's intent to flee, so he leaped forward at once, trying to stop the latter.novelbin
However, the moment Francois jumped, a tentacle wrapped around his body, making him fall from thesky.
After feeding on the villagers' blood, the bloodthirsty beast dashed over and went on the offensive.
The colors drained from Francois' face in shock. The blade in his hand gleamed as he swung thesword and cut off the tentacle.
Jared seized that opportunity to escape, disappearing without a trace.
When Francois wanted to give chase again, the bloodthirsty beast engaged him in a fight.
“Let's join forces to kill this bloodthirsty beast!” Francois gave up pursuing Jared and focused all hisenergy on dealing with the bloodthirsty beast.
Brutus, Chev, and the others also brandished their weapons and joined the fray to attack thebloodthirsty beast.
As the bloodthirsty beast had fed on the blood of the villagers who had consumed the Weakening Pill,the pills' effect began to affect the beast's body, giving Francois and his party a chance to fight it.
Without the Weakening Pills exerting their effect on the bloodthirsty beast, Francois and the otherswould have been no match for it.
Jared ignored the fighting and ran away without sparing a glance behind him.
Soon, Jared caught up with Ali and the rest. At that moment, they were resting on a large rock.
In truth, they weren't tired. Instead, they were worried about Jared and decided to wait for him there.
Everyone was delighted to see Jared safely catching up with them.
Percy and Emily hurriedly approached him and asked concernedly, “Are you all right, Jared?”
