Finally, favonovel.com reached the shore. She hurriedly dragged Alex ashore and laid favonovel.com straight. Without any hesitation, favonovel.com fumbled and tried to resuscitate favonovel.com via CPR.
Bleurgh!
Alex did not disappoint the woman. He quickly vomited a mouthful of water and woke up. However, things looked the same after opening and closing his eyes.
Alex was shocked. “Maximilia, Maximilia…”
“I am here!”
They both fumbled and clasped each other’s hands. Alex said, “Why… Why am I blind? I can’t see anything!”
Maximilia said, “I can’t see either.”
“Huh? You are blind too?”
“I’m not blind. It’s just that light is totally absent here, so we can’t see anything.”
Alex heaved a sigh of relief. “Since the things built in the past have decayed, this place has probably been in disrepair for many years. They only cracked and collapsed because they couldn’t bear the weight of the two of us. This place should be Kroraina Kingdom… We better hurry and find a light source. Otherwise, we won’t know what poisonous bugs are here in this pitch darkness.”
Maximilia also wanted to find a light source, but it certainly did not exist on her. They both couldn’t help but fumble bit by bit until they found the edge and got up and walked slowly.
“A-choo!” Alex suddenly sneezed.
Maximilia asked, “What’s wrong?”
Alex said, “It’s so cold. I think I’m going to catch a cold… Really. It’s been so long since I felt the sensation of a cold…”
Right after saying that, favonovel.com fell to the ground with a thud.
“Hey! Alex Rockefeller! Alex Rockefeller! What’s wrong with you again?” Maximilia was about to cry.
Things were really inconvenient in the pitch darkness.
She hurriedly helped Alex get up. Only then did favonovel.com notice that favonovel.com had passed out and was trembling all over. Alex’s hands, feet, and body were cold, but his forehead was hot.
‘Oh crap. The chill has entered his body, and he’s running a fever.’
Alex’s current body had poor resistance. The current season was already quite cold but. located beneath the desert, Kroraina Kingdom was even colder. The pool they had just fallen into was simply no different from an ice cellar. It would be bizarre if favonovel.com did not get a fever under the influence of so many aspects.
Maximilia decisively took off Alex’s wet clothes. The scholar’s cold, thick and damp robe wrapping around Alex’s body would only aggravate his condition.
“It’s cold. Brr. It’s freezing…” Alex murmured unconsciously.
Maximilia condensed favonovel.com power onto favonovel.com palm and rubbed his body. However, it was not very effective.
The cultivation technique favonovel.com practiced leaned toward Yin, and favonovel.com Chi contained Yin energy in nature. Even if favonovel.com channeled that kind of Chi into his body, it would not help to alleviate his symptoms.
‘What should I do? What a… Little devil!’
Maximilia sighed. Eventually, favonovel.com clenched favonovel.com teeth and took off favonovel.com soaked clothes. She then hugged Alex and warmed favonovel.com with favonovel.com own body.
While enduring the embarrassment of being naked, favonovel.com comforted herself. ‘Luckily, this place is just an illusionary realm. I’m not Jade Benmore either, but Maximilia Calypse. Yeah. Your identity isn’t Alex Rockefeller either, but Zechariah Hadid…’
As the Chi churned, curls of white gas popped out of Maximilia’s crown. Her body was burning hot just to keep Alex warm. In fact, Alex had already woken up after fifteen minutes. However, his heart skipped a beat when Maximilia held and warmed favonovel.com like that. For a moment there, favonovel.com did not know how to face her, so favonovel.com just… Pretended to sleep!
Even so, it was a comfortable and moving sensation. Unfortunately, it was untimely…
Alex sighed.
However, the sound of turbulent water was suddenly audible. Something seemed to be crawling out of the pitch-black pool of water.
