Chapter 972: Chapter 747: Turning the Tide! Everyone Escapes!
Revilia suddenly felt pain as well.
After all, Rephia is Revilia’s chosen disciple and successor, and to Revilia, she holds a place second only to Ais, who she regards almost like a daughter.
"Let them rest well." Reiger said to Revilia, who was like this: "I’ll go and bring the captain and the others out."
"Alright!"
Revilia knew that time was urgent and didn’t waste words, nodding directly.
"I’ll go with you!"
Ais handed Rephia to Revilia and spoke to Reiger.
"No, there’s no need." Reiger shook his head, saying: "I can move faster alone, wait here."
After saying this, Reiger gave Ais no chance to reply, activated teleportation magic, and once again returned to the artificial labyrinth.
"..."
Watching Reiger vanish into thin air, Ais did not retract her gaze for a long time.
"Are you alright, Ais?"
Revilia placed a hand on Ais’s shoulder, tentatively speaking.
"...I’m fine." Ais lowered her eyes, softly said: "The monster was defeated by Reiger."
From these words, Revilia heard many complex emotions.
She naturally knew the reason.
Because the monster that called Ais "Alya" was no more.
"Don’t think too much." Revilia comforted Ais, saying: "Those monsters didn’t have any ties with your mother, it was just because of the existence of the Polluted Immortal Spirit that they aimed to attack you."
Whether it was Reveis or Olivias, they all had no relations with Ais’s mother.
The one related to Ais’s mother and aware of the existence of the great immortal spirit Alya was the already fallen, Polluted Immortal Spirit.
She might have had a relation with the great immortal spirit Alya in life, but she was no longer who she used to be.
Now, she was just an irrational, out-of-control monster bent on destroying Orario, wanting to return to the surface and devour everything.
So...
"Don’t be too obsessed with her."
Revilia spoke softly.
"She’s just a villain who wanted to hurt you, thinking of her this way is enough."
Upon hearing this, Ais raised her eyelids once more.
"Mm."
The girl nodded, indicating her understanding.
"I’ll kill you!"
"If you can, come and try."
In the back, Loki and Kali’s argument continued, dissipating much of the tension in the scene.
...
The action of searching for Finn and the others went more smoothly than Reiger had imagined.
When Reiger returned to the labyrinth, he immediately activated [Object Localization] to detect Finn’s spear, Grace’s axe, or Bert’s metal boots, and soon received magical feedback, learning their position.
However, when Reiger teleported to Finn and the others, he found that their situation was much worse than Ais and the others.
Because they had encountered Valleta before fleeing and were wounded by the suicide attacks of the remnants of the dark factions, the injuries sustained were mostly from cursed tools carrying incurable curses, making treatment impossible, forcing them to keep fighting with injuries, with their conditions deteriorating rapidly by the second.
When Reiger found them, including Finn, Grace, and Bert, the first-level adventurer officers were all injured, the incurable curse keeping them bleeding, staining their whole bodies red, yet they had to fight against incoming green flesh, conditions worsening immediately.
Many members even collapsed, unable to hold on, tangled by the tentacles of the extending green flesh, and if not for Raul and Angel nearby striving to sever those tentacles, someone might have already been dragged into the green flesh, turned into its sustenance.
Everyone was fighting desperately like this, without any strength to escape.
If Reiger hadn’t arrived, in a few more minutes, it was feared everyone would have been wiped out.
"Clang!"
Seeing this scene, Reiger unsheathed his sword without a second thought.
"Boom!"
Flames erupted from his body, making the ground underfoot explode as he transformed into a blaze, shooting out quickly.
"Sun Breathing·Land Form·Bone-Burning Sun!"
The vortex of flames was slashed forward by Reiger, who leapt in front of everyone, whirling as it surged, instantly covering the attacking green flesh.
"Boom!"
A roar erupted, the explosion appeared, and the vortex of flames continuously sliced through the green flesh like a steel blade forged by a sun disk, first chopping it into pieces, then burning it away in one go, clearing all the green flesh.
"Reiger!"
"Reiger, kid!"
Finn and Grace shouted in succession.
"Rei, Reiger!"
"Mr. Reiger!"
Raul and Angel were overjoyed.
"You’re too late!"
Bert, who was in the process of saving a teammate from the tentacles extending from the green flesh, looked at Reiger, who was ablaze as he rushed to his side, shouting in a provocative tone, yet showing a hint of relief on his face.
"Flame Dance!"
Reiger didn’t turn his head, wielding the Fool’s Sword wrapped in flames, he slashed two true circular fire blades at the replenishing green flesh at the end of the forward passage, which collided with a roar, sparking another explosive rumble.
"Are you all okay?"
After sweeping the green flesh away, Reiger turned around and ran towards Finn.
"As you can see, not good at all."
Finn smiled bitterly, his complexion somewhat pale.
"Reiger, kid, can’t you use the magic of the [Battlefield Saintess]?"
Grace was covered in blood, showing signs of having gone through a fierce battle. His face wasn’t as pale as Finn’s, but his injuries were the most severe.
Evidently, this avant-garde style dwarf warrior had been very active, shielding many from lethal attacks and absorbing a lot of damage.
If not for the dwarf’s remarkable physique, such severe injuries would’ve left Grace almost dead.
Yet, Grace was still holding on, speaking to Reiger in a muffled voice.
"If I remember correctly, that magic should be able to break the Curse, right?"
Reiger understood clearly what Grace meant.
"[Drop of Healing, Tear of Light, Permanent Holy Sanctuary, summon the healing symphony here. Melody of three hundred and sixty-five, the calendar of healing shall save all things. Next, come forth, dispel evil. Bury wounds, destroy pain. Send the Curse to the other shore, deliver to the center of light. In the name of the gods—heal by my hands.]"
Without wasting any words, Reiger quickly chanted the highest-level healing magic.
"[Diya Flatel]!"
The pure white magic array unfolded again, the healing radiance infused into everyone’s bodies.
Under this radiance, the incurable Curse that had been tormenting Finn and the others finally turned into black smoke, disappearing from their wounds.
[Diya Flatel] could indeed dispel Curses, and also restore strength and detoxify. Even if limbs were severed, as long as they were placed back at the stump amidst this magical radiance, they could be reattached.
Aside from not restoring spiritual power, this magic was practically omnipotent, with very high versatility, which is why Reiger frequently used it, even if there were higher-tier spells with better healing effects that could regenerate limbs.
Thanks to this, Finn and the others’ injuries were finally healed, their complexion improving considerably, even the lost blood was replenished.
In a matter of seconds, everyone nearly recovered to peak condition.
This made everyone cheer.
"What amazing magic!"
"Is this the magic of the [Battlefield Saintess]? The highest-level healing magic!"
"Finally got rid of that damn Curse!"
Everyone exclaimed, clearly deeply resenting the incurable Curse.
"It’s good that you learned Amide’s magic."
Finn also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Everyone, gather around me, I’ll take you out."
Seeing everyone healed and the Curse dispelled, Reiger didn’t delay any longer, gathering them around him.
"[Group Transfer]!"
The next moment, under Reiger’s magic, everyone left, completely escaping from this hellhole.
