Apocalyptic Beastworld: A Farming Space Dimension to Another World-Chapter 134: Are They Familiar with Each Other?
"Wei..." Before she could finish her words, the person dragged her out of the moat. He jumped, landing on the fortress’ walkway all wet.
He was obviously affected by the moat’s poisonous water. As such, as soon as he landed on the ground, his breathing became more labored and his eyesight blurring out.
However, he could still spot a certain presence near him.
Wei Rong sneered at Zhou Yunhan before he passed out, his expression was inexplicable. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Zhou Yunhan frowned, finding that the leopard’s aura was somewhat different. They were obviously on the same level of power now. Even without Xie Ziyuan’s training, Wei Rong’s power also increased a lot.
"Meilin, are you alright?" He no longer cared about Wei Rong and hurriedly went over to Fang Meilin.
Fang Meilin took a deep breath to calm herself. She took Zhou Yunhan’s hand as support. "I am... fine."
However, she appeared to be slightly distraught. Still worried, Zhou Yunhan made sure there were no wounds. "Did you get hurt somewhere?"
She shook her head.
Her current state didn’t make him feel any less concerned. He could only ask Lu Qingtang for help. The female beastman instantly helped Fang Meilin.
Other beastmen knew that Wei Rong was poisoned. They didn’t rush to touch him. Leng Chuan found an opportunity to dry his clothes before they dared to send him for treatment.
"Wei Rong is poisoned. We don’t have any medicine for that, do we? Most of the pills are for physical injuries." Leng Chuan muttered, furrowing his brows.
"His lips have already started to turn blue..." Lin Yu’an faltered. He checked Wei Rong’s body for injuries and didn’t find any.
On the other side, Village Head Peng already told other beastmen to attack the fierce beasts falling into the moat. The fierce beasts’ bodies had been affected by Fang Meilin’s poisons, and they became weaker.
With a shorter distance, soon, more fierce beasts fell. They could aim at the fierce beasts more accurately.
Village Head Peng came over to their side, who was mulling over how to save Wei Rong.
"He is poisoned? It will be a bit tricky..." he mulled.
"Mr. Peng, do you have any solution for this?" Ma Yongcheng asked uneasily.
"I am not really well-versed on dealing with poison," he helplessly shook his head. "Wei Rong’s must have absorbed quite some high level of toxicity."
The place where he had landed earlier was indeed beside Fang Meilin. Just in time for him to approach her when she was spreading her poison around the water, causing him to contract high concentrated poison.
No one would know whether Wei Rong could be saved.
Fang Meilin bit her lip. She wasn’t too far away from the scene, and as such, she heard their discussion.
The beastmen obviously also took care of her feelings and didn’t directly confront her on how to deal with the poison. They obviously let her calm down first.
She clenched her fists. Should she go save him...?
There was something that made her hesitate. The gloomy look in his eyes when he saved her flashed by, causing her to bite her lip harder until it bled.
She struggled for a moment, letting Lu Qingtang lead her toward the infirmary. A few seconds later, she gritted her teeth and turned around, walking toward where Wei Rong was laying unconscious with large and quick steps.
Forget it. He had saved her, anyway.
"I can help him," she told them. "I am the one who understands the composition of the poison the best and can concoct the antidote for him."
She exhaled. "Just bring him to the infirmary."
After she said that, she walked back to the direction of the infirmary with large steps. Zhou Yunhan stared at her back, somewhat feeling a sense of loss.
He noticed her weird behavior.
Is Wei Rong the type of person who would save someone regardless of his own safety? On top of that, it was the first time the two met, right?
"I will carry him." He offered before someone else could carry Wei Rong.
With that, he picked up Wei Rong’s figure and headed to the infirmary. In the castle, the infirmary wasn’t as large as the one in the underground base, but it could still house hundreds of people.
Once he stepped inside the infirmary, he noticed Fang Meilin’s absent look. Lu Qingtang had just finished checking for any injuries on her. There was no one. She was just shaken by the fierce beast’s attack.
Lu Qingtang already exited the place to continue helping with the base’s defense. Now, there were only the two of them inside.
Fang Meilin glanced at him. There was surprise in her eyes before her expression returned to her calm look.
"Put him here." She patted the bed beside her.
Zhou Yunhan suddenly remembered the first time they met. This female beastman was quite pitiful. She could only let herself be bullied by her aunt, and yet, in just a few months, her temperament had changed greatly.
She became one of the strongest beastmen in the base.
The more he spent time around her, the more he couldn’t understand. His questions also remained unanswered; she always remained tight-lipped.
He was sure of one thing: she knew something about him.
"Are you familiar with Wei Rong?" He asked after he put the leopard down on the bed.
Fang Meilin bit her lip, shaking her head. She answered vaguely, "I... we encountered each other briefly in the past."
Zhou Yunhan nodded, not asking for more explanation from her. It made her feel a sense of loss.
Trying to get rid of Wei Rong’s poisons proved to be more complicated. Until the night came, Fang Meilin still hadn’t finished.
Even Old Wang went to visit Wei Rong, a little puzzled. "Why did he come to the base?"
If anyone were to go after him as soon as the teleportation array’s cooldown time ended, it would have been Duan Heng.
Now, they were in a dire need of his talent, Old Wang thought.
"I will ask for Duan Heng to come here. He might be able to forge some weapons."
With that, Old Wang left after he determined Wei Rong was alright. He sent a message to Duan Heng.
The reply he received... was unexpected.
