Chapter 2040 - Hall Of Sleep I
Chapter 2040 – Hall Of Sleep I
"Micheal, this is Grandmistress Charline, head of Hall of Sleep." Lord Whitman said and as he introduced me to the old healer who is the same level as the old healer in the Blood Sun. He also seemed to deeply respect the old woman, seeing the way he introduced me to her.
"Grandmistress Charline," I greeted, and she greeted me with a quick hand sign. I have not heard the Hall of Sleeps or this old woman, but anything headed by a powerful healer should be very important.
"Grand Commander had wanted to use to you in a field immediately, but I have persuaded the grand commander to borrow you for some time seeing your healing talent is equal to the combat talent," Lord Whitman said.
"May I know what you need me for, lord Whitman?" I asked, though hearing his words, I know it is related to the healing.
"You will know about it soon, but I request you that whatever you see from now on, keep it to yourself; not a single word about it should get out," Lord Whitman warned, and I just nodded before following Grandmistress Charline and Lord Whitman.
Soon, we walked into the small room with the formation and stepped on it; as we did, the formation lit up, and we disappeared before appearing into an equally small room.
Click!
Grandmistress Charline opened the door, and we walked out in what seemed like a forest. Other than trees, there is a small green-yellow single-story building with beautiful arches. Seeing the building, my eyes couldn't help but flash in surprise.
This is no simple building but artifact itself and not a regular abode type artifact but the one that is very high level and top of that, it is a healing type artifact.
"This is Hall of Sleep, and you are the first non-Grandmaster to see this place in the century," Lord Whitman informed as we walked toward the building. As we reached it, Grandmistress Charline placed both of her hands on it.
Dense runes had appeared on the door before they flew over her body; they covered her body in an instant before they receded back into the door, and the door began to open.
This artifact is not only powerful, but it is also bound type, and from the looks of it, had been binded to the old women.
The door completely opened, but I could not see inside as the door it was blocked by the black screen. The old women walked through it, Lord Whitman and I followed behind.
"Gasp!"
As I had entered inside, I was so shocked by what I saw that I couldn't help but get gasp. I had expected to see the patients, but not this.
In front of me, there is a single large hall, and tens of med-pods could be seen in it. These med-pods are connecting artifacts through the numerous pipes which are supplying energies to the people in lying the med-pods.
The thing that shocked me out of my mind was the assemble in the hall but the people lying inside the med-pods. There are a total of thirty-three med-pods, and, of thirty-three, thirty people inside are letting out an aura of Grandmasters and not a regular Grandmasters either but the powerful Grandmasters.
Of the two rest, one is letting out an aura of Master Class and while the other, which is in the center, is letting out the aura of freaking Grand Lord. The aura is faint, but the power seemed no weaker than the grand tower mistress Angela Leon.
In this place, nearly a third of human super powerhouses are sleeping, especially Grandmaster, which we do not have more than a hundred of them.
No wonder Lord Whitman had warned me about letting out even a single word about it. There is great secrete is hiding here, and if it comes to know, it will shock anyone who hears it, be it a human or the Grimm Monsters.
"This is one of the biggest secrets of the Pyramid, all these people afflicted with illnesses that we do not have any method to heal." Lord Whitman said.
"The Hall of Sleep is a special place; through it, we can keep the affliction and people suffering from it, in suspended animation till we find a way or someone to heal them," He explained.
"The cost of maintaining this place must be huge," I said, looking at all the tubes which are supplying energies to the med-pods.
"Extremly huge that we only kept those who have huge value in the world, most of the time it is powerful Grandmasters but few times, we have kept those with a lower level, its all depend on their potential and value," He said while looking at white med-pods which contain sole master class powerhouse in it.
"Your mother had also offered a place here when she had been inflicted with that curse, but she had rejected the offer," He added, which did not surprise me.
She is the first person to get Empire of Mist after four hundred years, which makes her extremely valuable and important enough to place here.
"I have brought you here because I was hoping that you would be able to heal some of them; even healing one of them would be a huge help to the war," He asked.
"The affliction these people have suffered is not simple, and they are powerful grandmasters top of that," I said with a sigh. "Though, I will try my everything in healing them," I said and walked toward the med-pod that is closest to me.
"Grandmistress, would you tell me about this patient?" I asked grand mistress Charline. She nodded and rapidly started to sign the hand gestures.
The patient's name is Myron Davis; he is a peak grandmaster class powerhouse from Blazing Sphere, and he has been in here for the past sixty-two years. He is inflicted with a powerful poison by Grimm Monster; the poison was specially crafted for this Grandmaster, which had corrupted his energy in an instant.
If not for being rescued on time and being placed here, he would have succumbed to the poison within a day.
Grandmistress explained the type of poison in detail, and she had even activated med-pod and showed me his vital graphs and all the data she collected on him.
