Chapter 343 Cutting Off the Head
Watching Dick rush into the tower, Harriet had no choice but to follow.
Even though Dick told her to stay outside, she couldn't rest easy.
For Harriet, Dick's life or death wasn't that important.
However, she is willing to help in any way she can if possible.
As for whether Dick was worried about Harriet's safety or afraid that Harriet would become a burden, it remains to be seen whether he said that to Harriet.
Harriet couldn't tell.
Therefore, although she planned to go in, she also wanted to avoid becoming a burden and affecting Dick's performance.
Harley doesn't have any special abilities, but she's good at saving her life.
So, just be careful.
Dick is very strong.
Through this battle, Harriet can confidently draw this conclusion.
If Casey had actually fought Dick back then, even with Harriet's help, she would have had absolutely no chance of winning.
The warrior she and Dick defeated together was also very strong.
Harriet kept applying negative status effects to that warrior.
At the same time, we will try our best to accurately stimulate Dick's potential.
This is very difficult; the power of "Eternal Life" is equivalent to precisely controlling the human body.
A slight misstep could lead to the exact opposite result.
According to Mr. Mosley, this power is greatly influenced by knowledge.
The more Harriet understands medicine, the higher the potential she can reach in this magical art.
Harriet's medical skills are currently limited, so her abilities cannot be fully utilized.
The fact that the warrior could fight Harriet and Dick alone speaks volumes about his skill.
But Dick really risked his life; his moves seemed to hurt himself, yet he still used them without hesitation.
He really wanted to destroy the tower.
He truly cares about Miss Peggy.
But what exactly is his relationship with Miss Peggy?
Harriet didn't think much of it and immediately saw Dick locked in combat with the enemy.
Dick did not use any weapons; he fought the enemy bare-handed.
However, these soldiers were no match for Dick.
Is Harriet in danger?
Dick left Harriet with absolutely no danger.
His fingers, like dragon claws, easily pierced through the enemy's defenses.
In the blink of an eye, only a pile of corpses remained on the first floor of the tower.
Harriet suddenly realized that Dick might not have let her follow because he felt she was superfluous.
She was both amused and exasperated.
If that's the case, then why follow along?
Harriet did not follow Dick up to the second floor. Instead, she walked out of the tower and waited at the foot of the tower as Dick instructed.
The tower was very soundproof; even with the wooden doors wide open, Harriet couldn't hear any fighting or screams coming from inside.
Perhaps Dick killed the other person before he could even scream?
It's also possible that the rumors were too strong.
The winds on the plateau are always wild, easily blowing Harriet's skirt up, and she even feels like she might be blown away.
Even when they are close at hand, the sound of the wind on the plateau can drown out their conversation.
The plateau is desolate and barren, and that's the environment in which Kashi grew up.
Does he like this kind of high plateau?
But whether he liked it or not, Harriet felt she had to like it.
After an unknown amount of time, Dick finally emerged from the tower.
His clothes were tattered and covered in cuts.
In comparison, countless knives slashed across his body.
However, it did not harm him in the slightest.
Mr. Dick's power is truly amazing.
He was covered in blood, but it wasn't his own.
Dick was wounded in this battle, but all of it came from the previous warrior.
Harriet asked, "Is it over?"
Dick nodded: "Yes—"
Before Dick could finish speaking, Harriet heard a gust of wind behind her.
It looked like something was falling from the tower.
Dick's expression instantly turned to terror, and Harriet immediately turned around.
However, she felt a chill on her neck first.
A closed dagger was pressed against her neck.
Then, a thin male voice came from behind:
"Surrender, man, if you don't want him to die!"
Without any hesitation, Dick raised his hands.
"Kneel down!"
Dick did as instructed.
At the library, Dick would rather die than kneel before Cathy.
But at this moment, he knelt without hesitation.
The man behind him laughed wildly, then continued to give orders:
"Pick up a sword and cut off your own head."
This time, Dick finally paused.
"I want you to cut off your own head!" the man said. "Or I'll kill this bitch."
"Watch your mouth, you despicable scoundrel," Dick said sternly. "I'd cut off my own head, but can you promise not to hurt her?"
"Oh! Of course!"
Dick nodded, and then actually went to pick up the sword from the side.
"Are you stupid?" Harriet couldn't help but shout, "He's not you, he can't keep his promises."
"But I had no choice—"
At that moment, the man behind him roared, "Shut up, you bitch! Or I'll kill you right now!"
Harriet immediately raised her hands, attempting to pry the man's arms off.
However, it is fundamentally unshakeable.
"Haha," the man said, "you do have some strength and you're quite big, but you underestimate a samurai!"
You underestimate me!
Harriet didn't explain, but immediately channeled her power into the other person's body through their hands.
The power of "Eternal Life" can indeed be exerted remotely, but its effects are on a completely different level from those exerted through physical contact.
She immediately controlled her power to flow through the man's body for a moment, after which the man's breathing became rapid and the strength in his arms began to wane.
In less than half a minute, the man became completely powerless and collapsed to the ground.
At that moment, Dick had already picked up the sword and was pointing it at his own neck.
He stopped what he was doing when he saw the man fall to the ground.
He immediately rushed forward and chopped off the man's head.
He asked anxiously, "Miss, are you alright?"
Dick is such a good man, Harriet couldn't help but think.
"fine."
"Why did he suddenly faint?" Dick asked. "Miss, what did you do?"
"It just made his heart beat a little faster."
"That's it?" Dick found it a bit unbelievable.
"His heart rate increased, which also increased his oxygen consumption," Harriet explained, "but this is high altitude, and oxygen is scarce. He fainted because of lack of oxygen."
Hearing this, Dick cast a look of admiration his way:
"That's a brilliant idea, Miss. I certainly wouldn't have thought of that."
Harriet shrugged. "There's no other way. I'm afraid he'll realize my power and kill me before I do, so I have to use this method that's hard to detect."
"Yes," Dick nodded, "I'm sorry, miss, it was my negligence that put you in danger."
"It's alright," since nothing serious happened, "but how did he manage to escape your search?"
