Chapter 202 War With The Cult (Part 2)



[Drom]

When Heath was walking towards the cultists in preparation for the duel, Rene was standing atop the city wall and watching just like everyone else.

She was standing by herself, away from Clay and Captain Skutter who were around 10 meters to her left.

\'I\'ve never really seen Heath fight before. I know he was one of the rankers but I wasn\'t paying attention to him during the ability Test either... How strong is he compared to someone like Leo?\' Rene thought.

Just as the duel was about to begin one of the supporters under Renes command walked up behind her and whispered something into her ear.

"Captain Leonard was just brought here through Teleportation and was taken to the nearest hospital. His injuries are severe and the healers can\'t do much but keep him alive, we need your help." The supporter said with an urgent whisper.

Although she was curious to see Heath fight, there was of course no decision to be made, she immediately left the wall and followed the supporter to the hospital Leonard was taken to.

She was led into the room he was kept in, passing by an Infernai that had a concerned expression on his face as she made her way through the hallway.

Within the room, several healers were gathered around Leonard, each of them pouring their energy into his body to keep him from dying.

His burnt body and ragged breathing were more than enough to cause concern among everyone present about his chances of survival.

"Captain...!" One of the healers said with a look of relief on his face. "His skin has been burned so badly we can\'t even affect it with our power and his breathing is slowly getting worse.

We were told he was in an explosion so it\'s safe to assume he inhaled some heated air and it\'s burned his lungs. His other organs were likely damaged by the blast as well. Even if it\'s you, I don\'t know if it\'s possible..."

The healers face dropped slightly as he looked at Leonard. Everyone was doubting whether or not he could be saved, regardless of how powerful the healers were. Their power wasn\'t unlimited and could only do so much, after all.

"Two of you continue to use your healing on him. I\'ll focus on healing the most damaged organs first while you keep him from dying.

It won\'t be easy and it will take some time but it\'s the only way he stands a chance. Rotate with other healers when your energy runs low so we can always have someone keeping him stable." Rene ordered as she took a seat beside Leonards bed.

She placed her hands on the side of his body that was badly burned. Golden energy poured into Leonard\'s body as Rene used her ability on him.

One of the main reasons Rene was considered the best healer was because she could focus her ability better than anyone else.

If someone were to get a cut on their hand and asked to be healed, the healers energy would be poured into the person entire arm and would eventually heal the cut.

That was the most control any healer could accomplish when choosing where to place their energy. All apart from Rene that is.

For some reason, she was capable of focusing her energy to such a degree that she could place all of it into only the injured spot. This allowed her to heal faster and use less energy when compared to other healers.

When the injury is something internal, like organ damage from an explosion, other healers aren\'t able to effectively heal because they can\'t focus their power on a small enough area.

Not only did Rene have more control over where her energy went, she could also feel the damage within a persons body.

For example, if someone swallowed something sharp and had an intestine punctured they would describe intense pain within their stomach.

A regular healer wouldn\'t be able to tell where the issue was or how severe it was since they couldn\'t see the damaged area.

The best they could do was pour their energy into the person\'s stomach and hope their healing would do the trick. Rene was different in this regard.

When using her ability and concentrating, Rene was able to see a black mass of swirling energy that would gather around a damaged area within someone\'s body.

The intensity of the swirling would sorrespond with the intensity of the damage. The epicenter if the black mass was the location of the injured area.

This allowed her to be very accurate with measuring the severity of an injury, as well as treating it effectively.

When using her ability on Leonard, Rene gasped as she saw the damage within his body. There was a collection of several black masses, each of them swirling intensely.

Even when ignoring how bad his skin was, choosing a place to begin focusing on was difficult when faced with so much damage.

Rene was shocked at the level of these injuries and found herself question how Leonard had managed to survive so long in the first place.

She took a deep breath in and thought back on an important lesson she had learned a few months before.

\'What was it that Leo said? There\'s no point in healing anything else before the lungs and heart. Without the lungs you can\'t breathe and without the heart you instantly die. Alright, heart and lungs first.\' Rene thought to herself as she began the process.

She found herself silently thanking Leo for his advice about the priority of healing. It was something she had mentioned struggling with once when a patient died because she didn\'t know where to start.

Unexpectedly, Leo had given her an answer by saying the heart and lungs were always the first priority. Of course, the brain didn\'t need mentioning since that much was obvious even to an inexperienced healer.

Miraculously, Leonard\'s brain was completely uninjured. It was a bit confusing but Rene didn\'t care about the how since it made healing him slightly less difficult.

As she began to heal his heart and lungs, splitting her energy so that around 60% of it went to the heart and the rest to the lungs, the fighting began outside.

The four Fire Balls surrounding the Imperium exploded simultaneously, killing several cultists that were closest to the explosion. When the system messages appeared to tell Leo about the XP earned, he noticed something.

\'The Imperium didn\'t die... Not only that, when I called down the Lightning Strikes there were only a few regular cultists that died, none were Imperiums.

I expected more regular people to die from it that Imperiums but even so, the number of people who died was too little and none were Imperiums, it\'s strange.\' Leo thought.

The fire from his attacks disappeared after a few seconds and standing at its center was a completely unharmed Imperium.

\' There\'s no way his shadow creature could protect him from that attack, not completely... how is he unharmed?\' Dreifus asked.

\'It wasn\'t his shadow. Look at his expression, he doesn\'t have a clue how he survived either.\' Leo said.

It was true, the Imperium himself was confused. He checked over his own body and found no injuries.

"Ha... Hahaha.... I don\'t know how I\'m alive but it seems someone is looking out for me." The Imperium said with a huge grin on his face.

"You can thank me later if you survive." Someone said from behind the Imperium.

He turned around and saw two people in regular cultists robes walking towards him. He was about to question them as the arrived beside him but hesitated when they continued passed him.

The two figures grabbed onto their cloaks and ripped them off, revealing the Imperium outfits they were actually wearing as well as their faces.

"John and Trent. It surprises me that you two came together, I assumed at least one of you would be hiding in a hole somewhere." Leo said in a provocative manner.

"Say what you want, you can\'t beat both of us at the same time." John said with a smug expression on his face.

"We\'ll have to see about that, won\'t we?" Leo replied.

Trent turned his head back so he could see the Imperium who had spoken with Leo. "Take everyone here and attack the city. We will keep him here." Trent ordered.

"Yes sir. You heard him! Attack the city!" The Imperium shouted.

All the cult members that were gathered behind him started rushing around Leo, Trent and John, trying to keep their distance.

"Did you think I would just let them run passed me!?" Leo shouted as several Wind Blades shot out in different directions towards the crowds of cultists.

Each Wind Blade slammed into a translucent barrier that appeared in front of them, preventing any cultists from being injured by the attack.

"Like he said, we\'re going to keep you here." John said with a raised arm.
