Chapter 162 - Liliath’s Grandfather



It turned out that he was a man who seemed to be in his fifties or sixties, and he had grizzled hair. In Elsa’s words, he was not very tall and was only about half the size of a Viking man. Besides having scriptural tattoos on his body, the man had numerous scars that had been left behind by previous battles. Nevertheless, the most special thing he had was his eyes that turned gold during battle. Elsa had gone against him more than once, and each time she saw the man’s eyes turn gold, she lost her combat effectiveness. That was why she thought the man might be able to beat her father.

The fact that the man’s eyes would turn gold in battle caught Gu Ding’s attention. That was because Lilliath’s eyes also turned gold whenever she initiated Pupillary Abilities. Gu Ding suspected that the man might be related to Lilliath.

That night, Gu Ding told Robert to send Lilliath over to the mountain.

The three of them then went back to the foothill because according to Elsa, the man was usually in his best mood in the morning.

Early the next morning, Elsa took them to a small wooden hut at the foothill where the temple was located.

She somewhat timidly took refuge behind the huge Biggie before Gu Ding knocked on the wooden hut’s door.

“Senior, My name is Gu Ding, and I’m here for medical advice.”

“You’re asking the wrong man for medical advice. You should look for the spiritual healer called Orm on the summit,” a deep voice came from within the house. “Elsa, I told you not to come here anymore, not bring more people.” “Sir, they said they were looking for someone with scriptural tattoos on them...” Elsa quickly explained.

The voice in the room fell silent for a moment. Then, a man with grizzled hair pushed open the door of the wooden hut. He glanced at Biggie and the others with a slightly puzzled expression before he finally fixed his eyes on Gu Ding, their leader. There was something oppressive about the man. He looked as if he was ready to attack anytime. “What on earth do you want to see me about?”

“One of our friends was poisoned, so we want you to cure her.” Gu Ding could vaguely sense the man’s powers by his oppressive aura-he was not someone his crew could compete with. Even if Biggie and Elsa joined forces, they would not have any chance of winning.

“I already told you that I don’t know how to cure illnesses, what more treat poison. I don’t know what Elsa told you, but you’re talking to the wrong person. If you want to cure an illness, go to the spiritual healer on the summit,” the man said and was about to close the door.

“We’ve seen the spiritual healer, and there’s nothing he can do,” Gu Ding replied immediately, “Someone from the Holy Gospel Tribe told us that Lili can only be saved by the person who has scriptural tattoos on their body.”

“Holy Gospel Tribe?” The man stopped closing the door upon hearing this. “I really don’t know how to cure any illnesses. If I can help-for Elsa’s sake- I will not turn my back. Who is this person who gave you the prophecy? Could they be an imposter of the Holy Gospel Tribe?”

“It’s Nisoth from the Holy Gospel Tribe-an old man with white hair who’s in a wheelchair. He shouldn’t be a fraud. The generals in Dragon Soar Cosmic Nation know him, and he spent tens of billions of Universe Credits to participate in the auction.” Gu Ding instantly became puzzled as well. The man did not seem to be lying, and he probably really did not know how to cure illnesses.

“Nisoth? I’ve heard of him. What did he tell you?” The man frowned slightly. He could not understand why someone from the Holy Gospel Tribe would make such a strange prophecy. “His words were: There lies a huge temple on a planet within Border River. Find a man with scriptural tattoos on his body on that planet. He should be of some help to Lilliath,” Gu Ding said as Neptune projected the video of the incident.

“In that case, I’ll take a look at it for you. Don’t get your hopes up though. I really don’t know anything about medicine,” the man agreed and walked over to the metal cabinet that was being carried by two robots. The moment he saw Lilliath, he froze.

“Senior, are you alright?” Gu Ding felt that it was a little strange to see the man freeze in front of Lilliath for so long.

“What’s her name? How old is she?” the man asked all of a sudden.

“Her name is Lilliath, and she’s fourteen years old.” Gu Ding felt that it was even more strange when he heard the man ask those two questions.

“Lilliath?” The man looked skeptical but did not delve any further. He asked, “Do you know what special abilities she has?”

“She has Pupillary Abilities. When she activates them, her eyes turn gold.” Gu Ding did not intend on hiding anything from the middle-aged man as it was highly likely that he was Lilliath’s relative. “She’s also a very good gunner.”

The corners of the man’s mouth slightly curled upward when he heard this. Nevertheless, tears began to flow out from his eyes and his body started to tremble slightly.

“Why is uncle crying?” Elsa wondered.

“Shh...” Gu Ding put his finger in front of his mouth and motioned Elsa to remain silent. Immediately, Elsa covered her mouth.

“Tini, your daughter-my granddaughter is alive!” The man’s hand trembled as he touched Lilliath’s face that was isolated by ice.

Only then did the mystery finally reveal itself that the man was actually Lilliath’s grandfather.

“Tell me how it happened-how was she poisoned and who did this.” The man turned around to look at Gu Ding.

Neptune immediately projected the video of the incident.

“The Dark Sector!” The moment he saw two men in black robes, he recognized them as people from the Dark Sector. As he watched a stooped old man inject poison into Lilliath’s body, he clenched his fist and shot something out in the air. Then, the man fell silent for a long time after watching the video. “Seven days, how many days have passed since then?”

“Today’s the third day. However, we studied the poison and its process should slow down at low temperatures. That’s why we’ve been keeping Lili frozen. She should have more than twenty days left,” Gu Ding explained.

“People from the Dark Sector can’t be trusted, so we have to give up the idea of asking them for help. Besides, whatever deals they promise are unlikely to be struck. Lili’s paternal family is a bunch of profit-minded bastards. Lili’s death may cause them some trouble, but it’ll do them more good than harm.”

“Senior, do you have any way to cure Lili?” Gu Ding was most concerned about this question.

“There’s nothing I can do to cure her, but I can try to induce her body to produce virus antibodies. Since she’s my granddaughter, I could use my blood as a medium to guide her spiritually. As long as her will is strong enough, her body will listen to the spiritual guidance and slowly produce antibodies. Other than that, she’d need a lot of cell repair agents to provide her with energy. In her current condition, E-grade cell repair agents should suffice.”

“I’m a pharmacologist, don’t worry about it.” Gu Ding was not worried about the medicine. He had plenty of medicinal components in his Inventory which had been supplied at no cost during his last trip to the Hermean Alliance on Great Divinity. Each time he visited a planet, he would redeem all the free medicinal supplies available; he never left one behind.

“Can you refine medicine that’s above good quality? It’s better if it’s high quality but the success rate of high quality medicine isn’t that high. This planet might not even sell it.”

“Senior, I can, I should also be able to refine high quality medicine.” Gu Ding concluded by saying that he could not refine perfect quality medicine only when the spaceship was shaking or if he was extremely tired. Under normal conditions, his success rate was one hundred percent. Nevertheless, there was no need for him to show off such a thing at this moment.

“That would be best.” The man nodded. “Don’t call me senior again, my name is Caesar.”

As Ceaser said this, he took an empty syringe from his Inventory and drew a tube of blood out from his arm. What surprised Gu Ding and the others was the blood that was drawn into the transparent tube; it turned out to be dark gold.

Then, under the watchful eyes of Gu Ding and the others, Caesar switched to a long needle and slowly inserted it into the ice. He slowly placed it into Lilliath’s neck and injected the tube of blood into her. Caesar then pulled out the needle without causing any damage to the ice. “Do you have any cell repair agents now?” Caesar held out his hand. Gu Ding nodded and handed over a handful of perfect quality E-grade cell repair agents to him-there were five tubes of them.

Caesar was taken aback. “Did you refine these by yourself?” “Yep.” Gu Ding nodded.

“Perfect quality. Pretty good,” Caesar complimented. Nevertheless, he soon became busy once again as he placed long needles on the cell repair agents and injected them into Lilliath’s arm one after the other. Caesar gave the other three cell repair agents back to Gu Ding.

“I’ll ask you for more when I need them. Refine more for a rainy day. I’m sure I’ll need seventy or eighty more tubes of medicine,” Caesar said as he picked up Lilliath along with the chest and went back into the hut. Under his motion, Gu Ding and his crew followed.

“I will use Pupillary Abilities to enter her soul later. I will communicate with her in her dreams and stimulate her will to live. I can’t be disturbed during this time, so someone strong will have to stand guard outside,” Caesar said as he looked at Biggie and Elsa.

“I’ll do it. Biggie can’t fight. He’s just a cook.” Elsa took it upon herself to be the guard, and the fact that she was there was reassuring enough.

Caesar said nothing else and only looked at Gu Ding. “You stay here. I’ll call you if I need you. Everybody else go out and do something, just don’t make any noise.”

Gu Ding nodded to Biggie and Robert. Only then did they take Elsa out of the hut.

In the hut, Caesar’s eyes soon turned gold. Beyond the gold was a strange, secret pattern made of silver.

Gu Ding sat still beside them as he waited quietly.
