Chapter 83

Oliver’s heart skipped a beat. He wondered, “Are the Great Wolf scared of the Eye Sculpture in my hand?”

He picked up the Eye Sculpture and raised his hand to show it off. He then jumped forward.

With a low whine, the Great Wolf took several steps back together.

Oliver thought, “It’s true! These Great Wolf are afraid of this Eye Sculpture!”

Oliver held the Eye Sculpture and ran several laps to the Great Wolf pack outside the crowd while waving the object in his hand.

The Great Wolf whined and backed off in fear until they were more than 30 feet away, staring at Oliver for a while. Then, they slowly retreated into the darkness, gradually disappearing.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the blood stains and body remains on the ground, Oliver felt twisted in his heart. He then immediately fell to the ground.

Hailey and Sienna could not help but run to him, helping him up on each side.

Seeing that Sienna’s coat was ripped in half, Oliver quickly took off his coat and put it on her.

A trace of joy flashed in Sienna’s eyes, and she secretly glanced at Hailey.

Hailey was also looking at Sienna. As soon as their eyes met, Hailey withdrew her hand with dimmed gaze and went to check on Gunther.

One of Louis’ subordinates was dead, and two were disabled, of whom one had his leg bone broken from a bite, and the other his left hand.

The tour guide, Isaac, died. He died as miserably as the Great Wolf getting its headshot and exploding.

Out of fourteen people, there were still ten intact left.

Oliver hurriedly checked the wounds on Wayne and Simon’s hands. Fortunately, they were only grazed on the skin.

Oliver wiped the disinfectant for them and then used his visual identification to confirm they were not poisoned.

Now, he could use his eyes more and more freely. He also found that his identification skills were more powerful, and he could identify people, animals, and objects. He could even identify fog, water, light, electricity, and many more.

He had not thought too much about this skill and never tested it before, but now he realized how strong the skill could be when he accidentally identified Enchanting Fog and the Great Wolf. Then, he secretly tried to identify other objects and found that he could identify all of them.

He thought, “This is awesome!”.

The people on the scene started to do what they could. Some wrapped bandages on their wounds, and some applied medicine, while some cleaned up the wreckage.

Those who were hurt on the hand were fine, but their mind was a little dispirited. The bodyguard with a broken leg only nearly survived.

After cleaning up, everyone stayed silent around the fire.

Louis had two unharmed bodyguards with him, and the loss was not big. Their journey seemed to have just begun, as they still could not replace a trace of Tristar Treasure.

Just after entering the Enchanting Hollow area, they met the Great Wolf and lost four people. No one knew what danger there was behind them.

Gabriel drank a few sips of water and waved to Oliver. He said, “Oliver, can you show me the Eye Sculpture?”

Oliver nodded, but suddenly, he had a realization. “Gabriel, this… There is a problem. Once you have touched this thing, you will be cursed with Blood Malediction. You will definitely die after 90 days from Blood Malediction. I…”

Hearing this, Sienna could not help but interrupt, “Oliver, do you really believe this?”

Oliver shook his head. “You… Sienna, do you think it’s a coincidence that those two tomb raiders died? Do you think the eye patterns on their backs and the one on your body are a coincidence?”

Sienna pondered for a while and then shook her head. “I can’t really tell. I always feel that… it’s really ridiculous.” Gabriel smiled bitterly and said to Sienna, “Young lady, you’re a police officer with rigorous thinking, and I have no comment on that. But in this world… there are many things that could not be explained by science, such as the wall of

Enchanting Fog and the huge and fierce wolves we encountered just now. Moreover, why did they fear Eye Sculpture so much? Can you explain this with science?”

Sienna was stunned and then shook her head.

She could not explain or even figure it out.

However, these were all facts she had seen with her own eyes.

Oliver put the Eye Sculpture on the ground in front of Gabriel and said while sighing, “Gabriel, you can just take a look. Don’t touch it with your hands.”

He had accidentally touched it just now and did not know whether he had been cursed with Blood Malediction, as he could not identify himself.

However, it did not matter anymore. There was no room for regretting this. If Oliver could not return, he would die with Sienna. If he really could replace an antidote, he could save Sienna and himself as well.

If they could not be saved, Oliver would accompany Sienna to the death world so she would not be lonely with her child.

Thinking of the child in Sienna’s stomach, Oliver suddenly felt heartbroken. It was his child who had not been born and seen the world yet. Maybe the baby did not even have a chance to see this world.

Oliver turned back and asked Sienna, “Are you feeling okay? Are you feeling hurt anywhere?”

Sienna shook her head. It was rare for her to be gentle and quiet.

Oliver took off his shirt and asked Wayne, showing his back to him, “Do I have an eye-like pattern on my back?”

Wayne looked at Oliver’s back for a while and took a picture with his phone. He then handed it to Oliver for a glance.

In the photo, there was a shallow eye pattern on Oliver’s back, which was lighter than that of Sienna’s.

However, he had a pattern on his back. It meant that Oliver was also cursed with Blood Malediction by having this pattern.

Gabriel took out a magnifying glass from his small satchel and observed the Eye Sculpture carefully.

This thing looked very bizarre.

Gunther also came over and looked at it carefully.

After thinking for a while, Oliver did not mention that the Eye Sculpture was the third map’s token of the Tristar Treasure.

“Sienna, why did you bring this along?” After a while, Oliver remembered to ask Sienna.

Sienna answered, “The first day I left, I went to Property and Evidence Unit. After thinking for a while, I brought along this evidence. Other objects are listed as cultural artifacts, while this item is not designated as one and is just a small sculpture. I took it out and examined it, by the way.”

Sienna never expected that the Eye Sculpture would save their lives.

Gabriel looked at the sculpture for a long time and could not figure out anything. “This thing… It’s really weird. It looks like a modern product based on its craftsmanship, but there is no trace of any internal mechanism. If it’s such a handicraft, how could it bring fear to those giant mutant wolves?”

No one could figure it out. Everyone had a lingering fear of the ferocity of the Great Wolf.

If the Great Wolf still besieged them, they would have become a mass of ground meat and turned into food for the beasts.

They thought, “The peculiar part of the Eye Sculpture could not be identified. Why is the Great Wolf afraid of it? What are they afraid of the thing? What is the secret of the Eye Sculpture?”

Due to Oliver’s reminder, Gunther and Gabriel did not touch the sculpture. Both of them were experienced and qualified identification experts, but neither of them could figure out anything.

Gunther coughed and looked up at the night sky. “Will the Great Wolf return here?”

No one knew and could answer this question.

Louis persuaded, “Mr. Fox, you can rest for a while. We can decide when the day breaks.”

Oliver took the Eye Sculpture and went back to his tent with Sienna and rested. He did not care about the sculpture anymore as he had touched it anyway. He already had a pattern of Blood Malediction on his back. He thought, “Whatever that is meant to be, would be. I’ll just wait and see.
