Chapter 585: The Cure

Seeing the dark elves dropping their bows, Gaya snickered behind her mask. It wouldn't be an understatement to say that Gaya hated the dark elves. As a matter of fact, almost all the races hated the dark elves, even the elves. To put it bluntly, the dark elves were racist, arrogant, and the most intolerable race in the whole world. No matter what one would say about the dark elves, they were one united race. Each dark elf was loyal and devoted to the well-being of their race. A dark elf would literally for another dark elf no matter whether they were related or not.

That was the reason they chose to lower their weapons when they saw Michael threatening the life of their commander. The dark elves would rather let Michael escape than endanger their commander's life. Michael noticed the concern in their eyes and their loyalty towards the dark elf in his hold.

"If I don't do this, your entire city would be destroyed by the plague," Michael whispered into his ears again before turning his gaze toward Gaya.

"Take the body,"

Gaya didn't need to be told twice as she quickly grabbed the decayed body and flew to his side.

"Do not follow us. I will return the body to you in a few days," Michael said to the dark elves.

"Meanwhile, don't drink water without purifying it," Michael whispered to the dark elf. He kinda liked the dark elf and wished he could make the dark elf his subordinate. To do that, the dark elf needed to be alive. That was the only reason Michael advised the dark elf so they wouldn't get sick.

"What the hell are you talking about?" the dark elf growled.

"The plague. I am the only one who could find a cure and stop the plague before it destroys your beloved Awor,"

The moment Michael uttered the last word, he pushed down the dark elf with enough force to send him crashing onto some of the dark elves beneath him. Without wasting a second, Michael tossed a flashbang onto the ground and shot into the sky with Gaya.

"Get him!" the dark elf gritted his teeth, holding his rib cage. Despite the pain and blood, he ordered his underlings to catch Michael.

However, by the time, the dark elves reached the sky where they saw Michael disappear, Michael teleported to Eve's floating mountain.

On the island, Eve and Nightmare waited outside the carriage for Michael and Gaya.

"Where are they?" Eve strolled back and forth with the hammer tightly clenched.

But suddenly, she saw Michael and Gaya appear beside Nightmare.

"Did you get the body?" Eve asked before even she noticed the decayed body on Michael's shoulder.

Instead of answering, Michael just glanced at the body.

"Aelia, set up my workbench here. I need a sharp knife, clean cloth, and a barrel of water," Michael instructed Gaya, removing the mask off of his face.

"System, scan the body and give me that formula,"

[As you wish]

He heard the system's voice in his head followed by an unearthly whistling sound. The system began to scan the system while Gaya was setting up a long oak table and the chair which made his workbench. On the other hand, Nightmare flew out to the waterfall to get fresh water as Michael asked.

The only thing that remained was the clean cloth and Eve provided it from her space ring.

By the time Gaya finished setting up the workbench, the system completed the scanning.

[Pateint zero identified. The system requires 200,000 badass points to create a formula for the plague]

"Take it," Michael didn't even think for a second before agreeing to the system. Compared to the gold coins he would make after finding the cure, the 200,000 badass points were nothing. The only downside was after paying the system, his badass points were almost depleted. At that moment, he only had 120,000 badass points. Because of the upcoming Aqua auction, he was unable to turn the gold coins into badass points.

[The system requires a tissue sample and bonemarrow from the patient zero]

The system asked Michael

"Place the body here," Michael said to Gaya.

Gaya gently placed the decayed body on the table as Eve covered her nose to stop breathing the strong stench coming from the body. But unlike Eve, Michael showed no signs of disgust on his face. Instead, he just took the jade dagger from Gaya's hand and start carving the body around its chest.

Eve saw Ghost cut a chunk of decayed grayish flesh from the body and then, turn the body upside down.

"Wait a minute," suddenly, Gaya stepped closer to the body and moved her head closer to the body's neck.

Eve and Michael looked closer at where Gaya was pointing and was surprised to see a bite mark. The bite mark had two deep holes an inch away from one other. It was too similar to a vampire bite.

"Do you think he was bitten by a vampire?" Eve asked after several minutes of silence.

"It's possible," Michael frowned,

"What possible? It's definitely a vampire bite. I had a feeling that this plague is somehow connected to the vampires. It makes sense. If you want to bring down the cultivators, you have to bring down Awor. If I am right, Thera was only a testing ground. If we don't do something, soon the plague would spread throughout the continent,"

Gaya's words put a deep frown on Eve's face. Awor could win wars against armies but no one was equipped to win against the plague. Even the most talented scholars and healers in Empress's court failed to find a cure for the plague and till now, they made no progress.

A single person could spread the plague and destroy a powerful kingdom without waging war. The mere thought of it shook Eve to the core.

"Then its a good thing you have me," Michael drew a line along the spinal cord with the jade dagger before sending a needle into the spinal cord itself.

Whoosh!

As Michale was extracting the bonemarrow, Nightmare landed beside them with the barrel in his hands.

"Here's your fresh water,"

"Put it here," Gaya instructed the Nightmare as Nightmare walked towards the bench and placed the barrel beside the table.

"That's gross," Nightmare rolled his eyes seeing the needle getting filled with a thick grayish liquid.

"How long will it take?" Eve couldn't help but ask Michael. She had lost so many closest family members in the last couple of weeks and couldn't bear the thought of losing her father, mother, and sister. But she lacked the knowledge or ability to find a cure. Deep down she knew she didn't have a way to save her family. That was the reason she drowned herself in battle.

Ghost was the last ray of hope she had.

"System," instead of answering Eve, Michael put the flesh and the needle into his system storage. Then, he summoned the system.

[Analyzing the samples…]

[Creating a formula…]

[Converting the formula into a potion recipe…]

Michael waited for the system to finish creating the formula patiently even though time was of the essence.

"Just give him some time," Gaya said to Eve, noticing Ghost's silence.

For almost ten minutes, only silence filled the lonely mountain and they heard nothing but the melody of the waterfall.

[Cure found…]

[Imparting the recipe into the host's brain…]

Finally, the system etched the recipe into Michael's brain in the form of a potion recipe. He was suddenly flooded with new knowledge about the plague and a potion to cure the plague. With his new potion, he could not cure the sick but also prevent anyone from getting infected in the future.

But unfortunately, his knowledge about the plague also came bearing a piece of bad news. According to Jennifer's condition, she didn't have much longer to live. At most, she had two days with the constant supply of healing potion.

"Eve,"

When Michael finally turned his gaze towards Eve, her heart almost skipped a beat. She shivered, waiting for his next words.

"I have the cure but we need to find the ingredients fast,"

Since time was of the essence, Michael even tried to buy the ingredients from the system store but the system required 600,000 badass points. Even if he took a long, he wouldn't get 600,000 badass points. Hence, the only way to get the ingredients was to buy them somewhere.

But hearing Michael's words, Eve's face brightened and at last, a relieved smile appeared on her face.

"Anything!"

"Bunyip Bone, Hydra Hook, Dryad Lock, Behemoth Eye, Naga Scale, Wolpertinger Antler, and Plague Barberry. You don't have any of these back in the castle. We need to buy them somewhere and we need them fast. Your sister has only two days,"

Eve shuddered, hearing his last words. In a blink of an eye, her mind was flooded with the sweet memories she had with her little sister since they were little.

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go to the Aqua palace and buy these. I am pretty sure they have everything you need," Nightmare always tried to stay positive but Gaya shook her head sighing.

"Aqua palace is in Kingdom Sill Alari, not in Thera,"

"We will go to Sill Alari. I don't give a damn about the lockdown. I will kill anyone who stands in my way," Eve said with a stern dominating voice despite her condition.

However, Gaya knew that the lockdown wasn't the only obstacle they had.

"It would take atleast two days to reach Sill Alari. But I have a way and you might not like it," Gaya paused for a few moments before shocking Eve with her words.

"The Rottgards have a portal to get to Sill Alari,"
