Mandi's appearance made Lin Chen's eyes light up.
Right!
Mandi was now a priest and had healing abilities!
She might be able to pull the Demonic Dragon Knight back from death's edge!
"Quick!" Lin Chen said simply.
Mandi understood the urgency and wasted no time.
She ran to the Demonic Dragon Knight's side and took out the cypress staff Lin Chen had given her.
"Holy radiance, gather..."
Mandi whispered a chant.
The cypress staff suddenly emitted a bright glow.
The light rapidly intensified over seconds until dazzling.
Then Mandi pointed the staff at the Demonic Dragon Knight.
The light orb slowly descended, merging into its body.
Immediately, the Demonic Dragon Knight's faltering breath began to beat strongly again!
The terrible wound started to scab over quickly.
Though not fully healed, the bleeding had stopped.
Thump... thump thump!
The heartbeat grew stronger and steadied.
Holy Knight's eyes widened in joy.
"Thank you!"
He looked gratefully at Mandi, then at Lin Chen.
Seeing the Demonic Dragon Knight revived, Lin Chen exhaled deeply.
If the Demonic Dragon Knight had died, Holy Knight would be ruined.
His combat power would never again be as strong.
Mandi had solved a huge problem for him—this was worth the Priest Class Change.
Lin Chen then turned to Mandi.
After casting, Mandi looked pale and staggered, drained of strength.
Luckily, Lin Chen caught her before she fell.
"You worked hard..." Lin Chen said apologetically,
knowing Mandi's stamina well—she was not strong enough yet to cast such powerful healing without suffering.
Mandi smiled weakly at Lin Chen.
"I'm fine, my Lord..."
"This is a skill I just learned today, Redemption..."
Lin Chen suddenly realized why Mandi had been missing earlier—she was learning this new skill.
[Redemption]:
Pouring a huge amount of life force into a single target, restoring it with the power of light!
"But this is all I can do..."
The Demonic Dragon Knight was Level 6, Mandi only Level 1.
She had nearly used all her power just to save it.
If Mandi had come any later, even sacrificing her life wouldn't have saved the Demonic Dragon Knight.
"Thank you!"
Holy Knight expressed deep gratitude once more.
"The Demonic Dragon Knight is resilient and will recover quickly!"
The happiest was naturally Holy Knight, whose life and progress depended on the Demonic Dragon Knight's survival.
Lin Chen instructed him to properly care for the Demonic Dragon Knight, then carried the exhausted Mandi back to the City Lord's Mansion.
Mandi was very weak and needed rest.
Lin Chen gently laid her on the bed, and she soon fell asleep.
Lin Chen tiptoed out and found Holy Knight waiting in the hall.
He approached and asked, "What happened?"
Holy Knight bitterly reported:
"We entered a cave filled with monsters all Level 3 or above."
"I intended to retreat with them, but we were spotted by a Level 6 monster!"
The Level 6 BOSS was very powerful.
Even Holy Knight couldn't guarantee a safe escape.
Not to mention two Level 3 Demonic Dragon Knights with him.
Holy Knight stayed behind to block the monster, letting the others escape.
To kill the monster, the Demonic Dragon Knight took a fatal hit.
Holy Knight seized the chance to kill the Level 6 monster and thus advanced to Level 6.
But the Demonic Dragon Knight suffered severe injuries!
Holy Knight rushed back to Morning Song City, leading to the current situation.
He never expected the other two Demonic Dragon Knights to perish in the cave.
"It's all my fault for being reckless!" Holy Knight self-reproached.
Lin Chen patted his shoulder and smiled:
"You've done more than enough."
Holy Knight killing a Level 6 monster at Level 5 was extraordinary!
The power gap between Tiers was clear and huge.
Yet Holy Knight achieved it!
Just as Lin Chen prepared to comfort him further,
the system voice suddenly rang in his ear:
"Attention all City Lords..."
