Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown

"Can you really detoxify him? I have to warn you that it's going to be a difficult task since he has been infected by five different poisons." Jerrold gave Zachary an apprehensive look. The latter was renowned for being Tania's disciple, so it crossed his mind that the latter must have learned a few alchemy skills from Tania. However, he still doubted that Zachary was strong enough to remove multiple poisons in a single attempt despite Zachary's unquestionable strength.

At that exact moment, all eyes were on Jerrold and Zachary. Engrossed in how the events were about to unfold, the warriors present could not peel their eyes off. Since they all came from other various sects, they didn't know who Jerrold and Zachary were. Hence, their attention was mostly on Jerrold, a Sage Level master. They did not give that much attention to Zachary, because in their perspective, he looked like an ordinary young man who was unremarkable and mundane.

However, to their confusion, it was Zachary who was claiming that he could save Lochlan. Based on their initial judgment, it seemed like Jerrold was the stronger one between them, and yet, it was the young man who had the guts to say such a lofty claim.

"Oh, it isn't me who was detoxifying you. It is this young man, Hodge!" Jerrold immediately looked at Zachary, and gave the young man a small smile.

Hearing this, Lochlan immediately shifted his attention to Zachary, whose body turned purple all over his body—his condition was alarming.

"Did he absorb all the poisons in my body into his body?! Is he digging his own grave?" Lochlan was aghast. He didn't expect that this young man would take the risk to absorb all the poisons into his body.

"Don't worry, Lochlan. Hodge is not as ordinary as he looks like. Since he was the one who volunteered to suck out the poisons, he must have his own method to get rid of them," Jerrold explained to Lochlan. Although he was very worried about Zachary, he was quite confident in him.

"But how could he be able to remove Trevor's poisons considering his strength?" Lochlan remained skeptical. He didn't believe that the young man was this powerful.
