Chapter 1181


    Chapter 1181


    As Neera had expected, Charles’ pulse was indeed in a state of disorder.


    Even Finnley and the others were no exception.


    In fact, everyone shows signs of being poisoned!


    78%


    Upon hearing that, Charles grimaced. “What’s going on? We didn’t touch anything, so how did we get


    poisoned?”


    Neera shook her head. “It’s not that we haven’te into contact with anything. There is something


    that has always been lingering around us, entering our bodies.”


    Upon hearing that, everyone was utterly perplexed.


    Charles looked around, asking with confusion, “What is it?”


    Neera’s gaze was aimed ahead as if trying to pierce through something.


    “It’s the air that swirls around us, constantly being drawn into our lungs…” At that point, she paused,


    then corrected herself, “To be precise, it should be miasma.”


    “Miasma?” Finnley eximed in surprise. “Are you saying that this dense forest is filled with miasma


    now? We were poisoned because we inhaled it?”


    Neera nodded. “Not long ago, I found it strange that the humidity in this dense forest was so high, and


    the fog was getting thicker. At first, I thought this fog was simply water vapor, but now it seems that it


    should be miasma. Have you noticed? Even though it’s midsummer now, it’s quite damp and cool here.


    Even though the temperature in the forest would be lower than the outside world, the altitude of Mount


    Cloud is not high, and it’s daytime. Logically, it shouldn’t be this cold. This must be the effect of the


    miasma.”


    Finnley rubbed his arm. “Now that you mention it, it’s true. I was just thinking maybe I can’t deny my old


    age anymore. After all, I’ve only been here a short while, yet I’m already feeling all sorts of difort.”


    Neera put down her backpack, talking as she rummaged through it. “It’s not that your body is failing


    you. It’s this miasma that is toxic. Shane fainted because he inhaled too much of it, and the toxicity is


    quite high. However, thankfully, his condition isn’t too severe, and the poison hasn’t affected him


    fundamentally. As for us, our situation is rtively mild. I have brought medicine with me, so we can


    use these.”


    Luckily, she had prepared in advance. She thought she might encounter some physical difficulties upon


    entering the dense forest, so she brought along useful items. She didn’t expect to need them so soon,


    but they came in handy.


    “Everyone take one. Let’s eat and rest here for a while.” She distributed medicine to everyone. Then,


    together with. Charles, they helped Shane lean against arge rock.


    Afterward, Neera took out the silver needle she carried with her and began to administer treatment to


    Shane.


    Ten minutester, Shane came to his senses.


    “What… What happened to me?” His face was pale, his eyelids half-lifted. He was clearly still weak.


    Neera quickly handed him water and medicine. “You’ve been poisoned by miasma and fainted for a


    while. Hurry up and take the medicine. I specially prepared this antidote. It works much faster than the


    usual ones.”


    Shane was still somewhat bewildered, not entirely clear about the situation. However, he had absolute


    faith In Neeka, and without a second thought, he drank the medicine.


    Half an hourter, everyone’splexion had finally improved, and their breathing had be much


    smoother.


    Shane’s spirit had noticeably lifted after that, and hisplexion was no longer as terrible as before.


    After hearing Neera exin the reasons, he finally understood. “So that’s what happened. I was


    wondering why I felt unusually heavy. Before I could even mention it, I was hit with a severe headache,


    and then I lost consciousness.”


    Afterward, he gently smiled, raising his hand to ruffle Neera’s hair, full of the affection of an elder


    brother. “You’re amazing, Neera.”


    Neera felt a bit embarrassed at being suddenly praised by him. “I just happened to have the right thing


    on me…”


    “You didn’t do it by ident. It’s your foresight and preparation that saved us from disaster. Otherwise,


    we may all be passed out here, perhaps even dying. We initially thought we were here to protect you,


    but as soon as we arrived, it turned out you were the one protecting us. You’re really impressive,


    Neera. We’re counting on you for whates next.”


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    Upon hearing those words, Neera was taken aback, followed by an inexplicable surge of excitement.


    Actually, even before she arrived and after entering the dense forest, she always had that feeling that


    she was a burden.


    Despite the importance of the event and the harshness of the selection process, the Gordon family had


    to rely on someone ipetent like her.


    Throughout that journey, everyone must constantly protect her, serve her, and even risk getting hurt for


    her.


    Yet, she could offer no help at all.


    That was how she thought about herself in the past.


    However, things were different.


    She realized that she, too, was of great significance.


    At the very least, she could also protect those who protect her with her skills.


    She was fighting side by side with everyone.


    As that thought surged in her heart, she suddenly gained confidence and was filled with enthusiasm.


    Suddenly, nothing seemed scary anymore.
