Chapter 886
Duncan held Mireille in his arms and blamed himself, “Mira, it’s my
fault for failing to protect you!”
When Peter put the talisman around Mireille, he wanted to refute it,
but he dared not do it in front of Peter.
The talisman must have caused Mireille’s headache, so Duncan
blamed himself for not preventing it from happening.
The middle-aged doctor took her pulse again, and said with a smile,”
Ms. Tanner’s pulse is back to normal now. She seems to be in good
health!”
Mireille whispered, “I’ve always been healthy!”
Then, she looked around and asked timidly, “Where is this place? Why
don’t I remember anything?”
Duncan explained, “This is Sigur Cliff!”
Mireille nodded and asked feebly, “Did Swordsman and Nash fil
Who won?”
Duncan’s eyes were filled with sorrow, and he choked. “The
Swordsman is dead…”
Mireille’s eyes widened in disbelief. “The Swordsman is so powerful…
How could it be…”
Before she finished her sentence, she asked, “Is Nash dead?”
She saw what happened. Even Nash’s chances of surviving the
explosion at Sigur Cliff were slim. A touch of sadness appeared on
her face.
Duncan noticed the change in Mireille’s expression and knew that she felt sorry for The Swordsman. He stared at the deep night sky and said calmly, “The masters of the Black Wind Mountains and the ghoul
overlord will bury Swordsman!”
Mireille trembled.
Although she was not a martial artist, she could sense the terrifying power of the masters of the Black Wind Mountains from their brief encounters, especially the ghoul overlord.
Without the Eight-part Scepter, they might not be able to fight the ghoul overlord at all.
She must get the Eight-part Scepter now.
Mireille shrugged in Duncan’s arms and whispered, “I… I need to use
the restroom!”
Duncan looked at the bodyguards next to him and said, “Set up toilet immediately!”
The two left, and when they came back, they brought a dozen p with them. It took them merely ten minutes to build a temporary t using chopped wood.
The two aloof women sent Mireille to the restroom and stood guar
outside.
Mireille took a deep breath and began to stick her finger down her
throat.

The two women outside heard sounds of retching coming from the
toilet, so they exchanged glances.
They sniffed but did not smell anything unusual.
“Ms. Tanner, are you okay?”
One of them was worried that something happened to her, so she
asked cautiously.
“I-I’m fine, I just have an upset stomach!”
Mireille replied.
Soon, she started retching again.
Her throat moved, and a long strip of medicinal mud was expelled
from her mouth.
Mireille dug through the mud and found a small piece of plastic wrap
with powder in it.
This was a drug she developed during her college years to help her
roommate suffering from severe insomnia. Its potency v
to knock out an adult-sized bull.
She asked her grandfather to test her creation on martial ar the drug even knocked out several grandmasters of the Mar
Association.

Mireille put the drug away and walked out of the toilet. One of the women turned to look and saw Mireille holding her head as she f
forward.
“Ms. Tanner!”

The women went up to support her.
other woman said, “We should go to Dr. Wayne, these spoiled young ladies are so frail.”
The two of them helped Mireille back to the tent.
Duncan was sitting on the air mattress, wiping the Eight-part Scepter. When he saw them walk in while supporting Mireille, his chest tightened. He put the scepter down and went up to her. “Mireille…”
On Sigur Cliff.
By then, the darkness of the night had completely shrouded the peak
of the mountain.
