Chapter 2042 - Parasite Cage
I had just removed my strings and opened my eyes when and hands made of energy appeared in front of me and rapidly started to make the gesture.
"I will tell you later; first, we will look at all the patients," I said. The grand mistress had asked me about what I had noticed. I am not going to tell her that, at least not till I have checked all the patients.
Grandmistress just nodded calmly, hearing my answer, but Lord Whitman did not seem that calm; he even opened his mouth to ask the question but closed it after some thoughts.
Time pa.s.sed, and I checked one patient after another before finally, I reached the center to the last patient who was occupying the biggest med-pod.
"This is Davian Gatlin, Grand Lord of Silverstone Academy," Lord Whitman said as he looked at the old man in med-pod.
Grand Lords are those who had surpa.s.sed the Grandmaster and are at the final level of Tyrant, there are less than ten Grand Lords, and some supremes don't even have. From what I know, Mistson did not have grand lord; there are maybe or two supremes that don't have to.
Producing the Grand Lord is no easy thing, and in the last millennium, there haven't been more than twenty grand lords. It is quite a small number seeing there are billions of people in the world and thousands of Tyrant and barely a few able to reach the absolute limit of Tyrant stage.
"Seventy-three years ago, he went to a very dangerous ruin and returned with a dangerous parasite in his body that was eating him away. We had no choice but to seal him here," He said shudderingly as he looked at the old man with reverence.
The old man is the greatest pillar of the Silverstone Academy, and as head, he would like their pillar in perfect condition, especially in this time, where even supremes are in danger from vanis.h.i.+ng on the face-off of the world.
"We have tried many methods to kill that parasite, but it is too d.a.m.n powerful and instantly react whenever we tried to kill it," Lord Whitman informed.
I listened to technical details of the parasite before I seeped my string into the grand lord, and I have to say their defense is no laughing matter. I have to make my vines extra thin and focus a huge amount of energy on them before they are able to seep inside the body.
I am very interested in the parasite in the Grand Lord's body, partly because I too had a parasite in my body and had done heavy research on them. Though, the parasite I had in my body is vastly different from the other parasites.
There is a vast difference between the grand lord and the Grandmaster; their body is strong like powerful metals that they would be able to stop the attacks from Grandmaster with ease. It is also called a half-legend stage because to reach the Grand Lord, one needs to have a comprehension of the higher power.
It is the sole reason why becoming a Grand Lord is so d.a.m.n difficult that across the millennia, bare few are able to reach this stage.
The strings went deeper inside him, and a minute later, I saw the parasite inside the Grand Lord, and I have to say it is fearsome. It is a long crystalline worm with jagged crystal thorns all over its body, and it would turn corporal and incorporeal every second like beeping light.
Th most notable thing about it is its aura; it is of the Grand Lord, and it is faintly stronger than its host; no wonder it was able to bring such a powerful Grand Lord to its knees and force him to sleep. If Grand Lord to fight the parasite, it would take the parasite three days at most to finish it.
It is not the conjecture I had made in the air; I have read about such parasites in the Hermes library and knew how dangerous they are.
I observed the sleeping worm for a few minutes, and after I got all the data I needed, I withdrew my strings and opened my eyes, only to see Lord Whitman and Grandmistress Charline looking at me; it looked like I had stalled them quite a while I have to give them the answer.
"There are five people I have confidence in healing, and Grand Lord is one of them," There, I said it, and all their reactions were just as expected. They are shocked and remain shocked for more than a second, which is a lot of time for the people of their level.
"How? Are you telling the truth?" Lord Whitman asked, and the same question is asked by the Grandmistress Charline with the gestures.
"Grandmistress, have you read the book named Riasa's Parasite Cages in a broken tower?" I turned to Grandmistress asked. She is from Wisdom Tower, and there is a high chance she had read it, and I was right; she nodded next instant before speedily signing the other gestures.
"I am talking about Asadt Cage, which is perfect for caging the Licon Worm that Grand Lord has in his body," I answered her question about which cage I am planning on using as there are more than a hundred types of cages shown in the book.
The Grandmistress again performed the flurry of questions, "Yes, we do not have some of the resources we need to create the cage, and they do found in the world but don't worry, I have a way around that." I said.
"As long as they could collect all the resources except Bohen Thistle, Gasti Gra.s.s, Reytrw crystals, we will be able to create the parasite cage," I added and before starting to answer the technicalities of the cage, and I have to say, this old woman is exceptionally knowledgeable, every little detail of the cage I am planning to create.
To answer some of her questions, I had to think for a while before answering, and sometimes, she provided the answer to a question that I could not answer.
