Chapter 1743 Poisoned
His words instantly set off alarm bells in Evan’s and Nicole’s heads. Was he poisoned while he was
talking just now? The same thing happened to one of the poisoned victims.
Casting his gaze upward, Evan realized that Jeremy just happened to be standing under a large tree
with thick foliage.
The person we saw earlier must have poisoned Jeremy, and they had been hiding on the tree.
A sense of dread crept into his heart as he regarded the thick canopy above them with narrowed eyes.
“Everyone, look down and shut your mouth! Retreat now!” he barked sharply in a voice that brooked no
argument.
The urgency in his tone had the others realize the gravitas of the situation. Therefore, they complied at
once and hastily retreated in the direction of the cabin.
Abandoning their plan for a recon mission, both Jeremy and Jensen followed suit and went with the
rest. Unfortunately, moments later, Jeremy started to feel unwell. He stopped in his tracks, sweating
profusely. “Hot… It’s so hot…”
Catching sight of his action, the others, too, halted in their tracks.
“Jeremy, are you okay?”
“I-I’m burning up… It feels as if I’m being roasted.” Jeremy groaned, clawing at his shirt that was
already soaking with sweat. “No, I can’t take it anymore. I… I want to take my clothes off.”
Draven turned to look at Evan and said decisively, “Mr. Seet, please leave with Mrs. Seet and Mr. Juan
first. I’ll stay behind with Jeremy.”
“No!” Juan protested loudly, determined to fight alongside them. “Daddy and Mommy can go first. I
want to stay behind too!”
All of a sudden, Evan felt that something was off. The instant he heard the sound of rustling leaves
overhead, a cold light gleamed in his dark orbs. If we don’t get out of here now, more of us will be
poisoned.
“Carry him, and let’s go!” he ordered.
At his order, Jensen hoisted Jeremy up, and the group continued their retreat as quickly as possible.
Draven seemed to have perceived danger, so he deliberately slowed his steps and fell behind the
group. Once everyone was further away from him, he whipped out several daggers and sent them
flying to the surrounding trees in the blink of an eye.
In that split second, tree branches fell to the ground while two figures, clad in green to camouflage with
the tree’s crown, darted away and disappeared into the distance.
Staring at their departing figures, Draven mumbled under his breath, “Tch, just as I thought I could
exchange a few blows with them, they fled. What a bore.”
Instead of giving chase to them, he caught up with the group.
“Put me down. I’m f-freezing….” Jeremy said through chattering teeth as if he had not been sweating
through his clothes just mere moments ago. “It’s s-s-so c-cold!”
Such alternating symptoms of extreme hot and cold waves clued everyone in—Jeremy had been
poisoned before even setting foot into Daemonic Mount.
Going up the mountain was indeed proving to be a difficult challenge.
The group continued their way to the cabin. A while later, Darius suggested to Jensen, “You must be
tired. Let me carry Jeremy for a bit.”
Jensen exhaled deeply. “Okay, thanks.”
Just like that, the Hidden Masters took turns carrying their poisoned comrade until they finally arrived at
the cabin mentioned by Evan.
From the looks of it, the place had been deserted for quite a while.
“Mr. Seet, please wait here while we survey the cabin,” Draven said.
“Yeah, we can tidy up the cabin too,” Damien chimed in.
Evan inclined his head in approval. While the two men went inside, the rest took care of Jeremy.
Jeremy, whose teeth were chattering earlier as if he had fallen into ice water, was feeling the
oppressive waves of heat. At that moment, he felt as though he was on a volcano.
Needless to say, it was torturous to endure the alternating cycles of extreme temperatures.
“Mr. Seet, Mrs. Seet, h-have I been poisoned?” Jeremy himself had caught on since the symptoms he
experienced were the same as Faye’s.
Nicole pulled out her acupuncture needles. “Hang in there, Jeremy. Let me try to alleviate the
symptoms.”
“Don’t worry, Jeremy,” Jensen said with a determined expression. “We’ll definitely find the antidote.”
The sparkle in Jeremy’s eyes dimmed. In his weakened state, he was far different from the same man
who had confidently offered to scout the mountain. At the same time, he cursed himself inwardly for
being so careless and underestimating the situation.
