Chapter 701 Committing To Choice

?"I don't know much about the Sanctuaries, but she does know something about them," Seig responded, shaking his head before gesturing towards the downcast Evadne.

Listening to Seig's words and feeling the various gazes on her, Evadne raised her head and briefly glanced at Seig before fixing her eyes on the Village Chief and the others.

Suddenly, Evadne narrowed her eyes at the Village Chief and the others. "I am sorry, but I am not giving out such information for free," she said firmly.

A frown suddenly emerged on the Village Chief's face, along with Stronghold Leader Zogar and Seth.

"Cough! Cough! Evadne, what are you doing?" Seig whispered, staring at Evadne in surprise.

Just a few minutes ago, she was okay with giving the Village Chief and the others all the information they needed, and now she was behaving as though she wasn't willing to share the information she possessed.

"Captain, since we have no chance of getting out of here, I don't think we should be willing to share whatever information we have. If we are going to die, then we might as well do so with our lips sealed," Evadne declared with a fierce gaze, her eyes locking in the direction of the Village Chief and the others.

'What is wrong with this woman?' Seig thought, his brows twitching in annoyance. He could tell just by looking at her that she meant every word she had just said.

"Are you sure about this, Lieutenant Evadne? If you don't give us the information we want, then I will make sure that your death will come swiftly," the Village Chief retorted, his voice cutting through the tense atmosphere.

"Then, go ahead. Since we will be dead anyway, I don't see any problem in that," Evadne replied defiantly.

Initially, she had thought they could survive by getting on the Village Chief's good side. However, after trying to pledge their allegiances to him and then listening to his response, Evadne had decided. She believed it was better to die with the information she possessed than share it with them.

"How did he manage it?" Seraphina muttered to herself. She had spent three hours attempting to detect divine energy within the potential three-star Vylkr vine, but none of her experiments had yielded any results.

Seraphina let out a weary sigh as she rose from her seat, gathering the remaining Vylkr vines into a box and preparing to head back home. Tomorrow, she planned to consult with the former Prismerions Healers' Council, now the branch heads of various Healers' Association branches scattered throughout the Cities, to see if they had any solutions.

While she knew the chances of them having techniques to identify divine energy within the Vylkr vine were slim, it was still worth a try.

Furthermore, Seraphina couldn't shake the nagging desire to ask Orion how he detected the divine energy within the vine as she packed up. However, she dismissed the thought; if Orion hadn't shared his method with her, there must have been a reason.

Nevertheless, the prospect of meeting with the former Prismerions Healers' Council after so long was something Seraphina looked forward to.

Second Border City

Patriarch Rylan Residence

Patriarch Rylan's eyes slowly flickered open as he stirred awake, his gaze landing on the unfamiliar face before him before sweeping the room and recognizing the faces of his son, daughter, and the rest of the gods' chosen.

"Father!"

"Father!"

"Patriarch Rylan!!"

"Patriarch Rylan!!"

As Patriarch Rylan fully awoke and his gaze sharpened, Isadora, Lyndon, Leif, Leona, and the others erupted in excitement, rushing towards his bedside.
