Chapter 319

“Techniques passed down through generations have their merits. How can you be so sure it won’t work?” Flora said, her voice steady.

Flora had learned this particular method from Jules. It was the same technique Jules had used to save Louie, who had gone into shock multiple times. Everyone had thought Louie was a goner, but Jules brought him back.

Yara snorted. “We’ll see. Just don’t come crying to me when he actually dies and you can’t handle the aftermath, Ms. Flora.”

Yara, fuming, turned her head away, unable to respond.

Hours dragged on, and Adler showed no signs of improvement. They replaced the charcoal over and over, and the medicinal herbs were applied repeatedly.

Zack, Pax, and Jason were losing hope, thinking it might be kinder to let Adler go peacefully instead of prolonging his suffering. But Connor was resolute, insisting they follow Flora’s lead.
