Gu Mengmeng and Sandy walked towards the main firepit, holding hands while Elvis and Bode followed them from behind. Walking pass Quentin, Gu Mengmeng paused her steps and turned behind to Elvis, asking him, "Didn't Nina's partners bring Quentin away with them? He will die if they left him here."
"I'll ask someone to send him over." Elvis did not want Gu Mengmeng to care for other males, including those who had already mated.
Luckily, Gu Mengmeng did not have any favorable impression towards Quentin. But she was kind and would not ignore him if she saw him dying in front of her face.
However...
"Huh? Quentin had already come down from the Platform of the Deity's Punishment so where's Barete? Why didn't I see him?" Gu Mengmeng asked while looking around, she really did not see Barete's shadow at all.
Collin stood behind Gu Mengmeng and answered with his head lowered and brows furrowed, "Barete did not survive. He died on the Platform of the Deity's Punishment last night. Now..."
"F***!" Upon hearing that, Gu Mengmeng did not bother to think much and retracted her hand that was holding onto Sandy's. Pushing Sandy towards Bode, she said, "All of you can eat first, I'm going to check on Barete."
Gu Mengmeng did not have the time to contemplate when she jumped onto Elvis's back directly and shouted, "Leader, hurry hurry hurry, Platform of the Deity's Punishment!"
Elvis frowned, his dislike towards Barete grew bigger.
But despite being unwilling, he still did not defy Gu Mengmeng and he evolved into his wolf form before rushing to the Platform of the Deity's Punishment with Gu Mengmeng at lightning speed.
Gu Mengmeng climbed onto the Platform of the Deity's Punishment on fours and checked Barete's breath with her finger. Although it was weak, but he had not stopped breathing yet.
"Good news, good news. He hasn't stopped breathing which means he still can be saved." Barete was punished because of Gu Mengmeng and if he died like that, Gu Mengmeng did not know how she was going to forgive herself.
Looking up, she saw that the bunch of males who were waiting to eat near the stream had followed them like a swarm of bees. Gu Mengmeng did not even bother feeling helpless as she spotted Collin from the crowd in one glance. Thus, she sent him on an errand, "Collin, help bring some water over."
"Ok." Collin did not ask why. His skills were on par with Barete and they were rivals but also friends these past few years. If they were lucky enough, they might still become a family in the future because of Gu Mengmeng. If Barete died like this on the Platform of the Deity's Punishment, he would be very sad. But if Gu Mengmeng could bring him back to life, let alone bringing some water over, he would be willing to even slit his throat and provide him with his blood.
The Platform of the Deity's Punishment was originally near the stream and thus, Collin used less than a minute to get some water with a folded leaf.
Gu Mengmeng carried Barete's head up and placed him on her thigh before receiving the leaf from Collin's hands, sending the water drip by drip into Barete's mouth. However, Barete was already unconscious for long and swallowing was a problem. The little water flowed out from his mouth like how it flowed in.
Gu Mengmeng clenched her teeth and took up the leaf, pouring the water into her own mouth. She then pinched open Barete's mouth and fed him all the water using her own mouth.
The water rumbled down Barete's throat and he finally swallowed his first mouth of water in three days.
After his body was nourished, he finally started to show signs of recovery. Gu Mengmeng pressed on and just when she sent the water into her mouth to get ready to feed him, her wrist was grabbed onto by Elvis. Elvis's eyes were filled with ink that could not be melted and his thin lips clamped into a straight line. He shook his head and although the movement was not big, it encompassed firmness and resolution without a doubt.
