Chapter 345 Soul–Piercing Shiver Ran Through

Zach lay deathly still nearby, his face ashen and lifeless, like a flickering candle flame, about to be snuffed out:

Shawn was stunned, his face a mask of disbelief. ‘How could this be?‘ he wondered.

The confidence he had displayed just moments ago now felt like a cruel self–inflicted blow, as the severity of the injury he had sustained in the Indigo Training Ground shocked him.

Raven paused briefly, then in a flash, she stood before Zach.

She found Zach lying with his eyes squeezed shut, fragile. The air around her turned icy, and she quickly crouched down, pressing her fingers against Zach’s wrist. The pulse was faint but there, and she exhaled a breath of relief.

With a soft shimmer of the Ring of Life on her finger, a small white vial materialized in her hand. Gently parting Zach’s lips, she poured the liquid medicine into his mouth.

Upon entering his body, the medicine vanished instantly, its potency seemingly devoured by an unseen force. Raven’s worry deepened as she realized the treatment had no effect. She immediately rechecked his pulse.

His face grim, Shawn grabbed his communicator, pressed the transmission button, and barked, “Lola! Get over here now!” Seconds ticked by, but Shawn’s communicator remained silent, unanswered. His expression darkened with each passing

moment.

Dread coiled in his chest, a chilling premonition he couldn’t ignore. Just as his fear threatened to overwhelm him, Raven reacted, her rapid breaths betraying her mounting panic.

His struggle died in his thos he met her gaze–cold, empty, completely emotionless. Terror seized him; in that moment,

death felt close and suffocating, an undeniable presence.

Raven’s grip tightened, slowly lifting Shawn until his feet dangled helplessly. Her icy stare pierced him, as if he were already dead. “Where is my brother’s Devourer Starcard?” she asked, her voice deceptively calm, yet sending chills down Shawn’s spine.
