Chapter 26 - Jack Was Shocke

Apart from the similarity in appearance, she could be regarded as two different living beings.

Moreover, according to ancient legends, the dead souls would always return to the mortal world to take away their loved ones!

If that was the case, this Betty had done something similar by accident.

However, if what Betty said was true, then why did these extraordinary people come here?

Because of him?

From the current situation, the possibility was very small.

After all, the only possibility of him leaking out was also eliminated.

And at this moment, his gaze inadvertently glanced at the little girl who was sitting on the treetop with an uneasy expression. Lin Meng’s eyes suddenly lit up.

Since he couldn’t guess, couldn’t he ask?

Thinking of this, Lin Meng’s branches shook, and a very rich drop of life essence seeped out.

“Betty, eat it.”

Lin Meng sent this drop of life essence in front of the young girl.

“Master, this…”

Looking at this very precious green liquid, Betty didn’t want to eat it at first but she was a little afraid.

After all, her master was so cold just now.

“I need you to become stronger and help me do something. Don’t let me down, okay?”

Hearing Lin Meng’s helpless voice, Betty suddenly shook and nodded repeatedly. “Okay, master. I won’t let you down.”

After saying that, Lin Meng had already sent the green liquid along with the branches into Betty’s mouth.

Gulp.

As if swallowing, Betty’s body suddenly shook.

Boom…

Along with the slight vibration of the air, an inexplicable force had already circulated.

At the same time, Betty’s body also expanded with the wind. In the blink of an eye, she had grown to a height of 1.6 meters and she seemed to have returned to her previous life.

“Master…”

There was another soft call but it carried a hint of coldness that did not belong to the human world.

Race: Mutated Soul.

Level: Entry Level 5.

Talent: Immune to physical attacks.

Ability: Spiritual Enhancement—one of the few spiritual abilities. It was enough to allow her to stay for a short period of time after she died. At the same time, it could interfere with reality to a certain extent.

Telepathy—there was a similar flower somewhere that was connected to her telepathically.

“Entry level 5? It’s two levels higher than before.”

Lin Meng muttered in his heart. His emotions were also somewhat complicated.

As he had guessed, even if he gave Betty the life essence the second time, there would not be much of a breakthrough.

If he had guessed correctly, advancing to level 5 should not be a small threshold.

Unless he spared no expense to provide life essence, it would be difficult for him to help others breakthrough.

However, on second thought, Lin Meng could understand.

His life essence was already very heaven-defying.

It could accelerate the evolution of all living things.

If there were really no restrictions, he would first have to consider his life and death.

After all, covetous dreams had always been eyeing him.

And now, it was only effective for low-level breakthroughs, which would make him a little safer.

At this moment, in the village at the foot of the mountain.

There were green tiles, mud houses, and a corner of the roof that still had some water leaking.

Drip, drip…

One after another, the water dripped onto the ground, creating a large puddle of water.

But at this moment, no one cared.

“Old Man, don’t be anxious. Speak slowly.”

Sitting on a wooden chair, Jack looked at the old man whose hair had turned quite white not far away. His body was very straight.

Sigh…

He sighed again and wiped the corner of his moist eyes, the village chief said bitterly, “My two poor granddaughters were attacked by a mutated green snake when they returned home in the middle of the night. One died from poison. She was just buried before you came and the other is still unconscious.”

As he said this, the village chief could not help but choke up.

“This…”

Jack opened his mouth but he could not say anything.

If you asked him to fight with the mutated beast, he would not even frown.

But if you asked him to comfort an old man who had lost a loved one, it would be a little difficult.

And the thirty-something-year-old leader who followed Jack into the village chief’s house had some experience after all.

He stood up and walked to the old man. He patted the old man’s shoulder and comforted him, “Old Man, I’m sorry for your loss.”

As he spoke, the leader seemed to have thought of something and asked again, “Kill that beast. If we don’t kill it, we’ll kill it tonight and make a toast to your granddaughter.”

“Kill it, kill it…”

Nodding his head heavily, the old man’s wrinkled face finally squeezed out a smile. “The people of our village beat that snake to death with a random stick.”

As he spoke, the old man seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly added, “But it was precisely because I swallowed that green snake’s gall that my other granddaughter has yet to wake up.”

“Gall?”

Frowning, Jack was somewhat puzzled.

“In the depths of the mountain, there is a saying: ‘If you are bitten by a poisonous snake, take out its gall. It can be used to detoxify.'”

As if he knew a little, the leader with a face full of stubble tilted his head and explained.

However, the twitch at the corner of his mouth still revealed some of his thoughts.

The snake gallbladder detoxified. No one knew which b*stard came up with this idea.

Even the snake itself could be poisoned to death by its poison.

How could its snake gallbladder detoxify the poison?

If that was really the case, after a person was bitten by a poisonous snake, he would risk his life to kill the snake and eat its gallbladder. The poisonous snakes would probably have been extinct long ago.

At this moment, as if he had seen through the group leader’s thoughts, the old man sobbed, “We also know that this is a folk prescription but, at that time, my granddaughter only had one breath and her entire body was still covered in green…”

Before he could finish speaking, as if he had thought of something, the old man sobbed uncontrollably.

“Haaa…”

They looked at each other, and the group leader and Jack also sighed.

At that time, no matter who it was, they would grab hold of this last life-saving straw

This was human nature and also within reason.

“Old Man, why don’t you bring me to take a look?”

At this time, looking at the sobbing old man, Jack also probed.

“This…”

Looking at Jack’s very young face, the village chief was a little hesitant.

“Don’t worry, Old Man, this guy is really powerful.”

As he spoke, the regiment commander with a face full of stubble said impolitely, “Don’t look at him just because he’s young. You should know that he’s my superior. If I wasn’t a few years older and he called me big brother, I would still have to greet him with a military salute at this time.”

“Uh…”

The corners of his eyes twitched and the wrinkles between the old man’s brows squeezed together.

However, after a moment, he took a deep look at Jack, who exuded a sense of righteousness. The old man also turned around and picked up his cigarette. He sighed and said, “You guys, it’s not easy for you to stay with us for a night and we still have to trouble you… haa…”

As he spoke, the old man lifted his feet and walked toward the inner room.

The inner room was not big and it was estimated to be more than twenty square meters.

In addition to a table and a chair, there was also a large bed.

And on the bed, there a young girl laid down.
