The Rise of a Master It Starts With Rejection novel Chapter 906

Just as Ocean's reassuring efforts started to work, Jack vomited blood. Not just him, but so did the regular citizens here, such as all the waiting staff in the yard.

"Crap!" Felix stopped quickly. Only then did he remember that regular folks were also present. The martial artists could still resist the effects of the poison somewhat, but the ordinary citizens not versed in the martial arts didn't have a chance.

Based on his brief resistance against the poison, he could confirm that an ordinary citizen would die within one minute. How could he watch his best friend die just like that?

"Anyone with silver needles on hand? Take them out!"

With a flick of Felix's hand, all his needles flew toward all directions. Even so, only half of the regular people present were rescued. The others collapsed onto the floor in agony.

"Am I going to die, Felix?" Jack stared at his blood on the ground, his face frozen in disbelief.

"Shut up! As if I'd let you die!"

Milo rushed over to ask Felix, "Are there any substitutes for the needles?"

There were no traditional medical practitioners present, so why would they have silver needles with them?

A harried Felix caught sight of a corner of the yard covered in pebbles, and he quickly said, "Shape the pebbles into needles. Hurry!"

He unsheathed his sword, which prompted everyone else to rush to the pebbled area. The martial artists present all had a strong enough control on energy, so shaping pebbles into needles was still within their abilities.

Even Aiden had started doing something, as he felt something out of the ordinary happen to his body as well. Five more minutes at most, and he'd no longer be able to suppress the poison in his body. When that happened, he would have no choice but to rely on Felix.

Almost three minutes later, everyone sat cross-legged on the floor, with many needle-shaped stones attached to their skin.
