I Am Unstoppable novel

Chapter 419



Chapter 419 Poisoned By A Golden Silkworm
Mauve found herself in a state of distress. She had gone out with everyone else, but her classmates and professor were no
longer alive. No matter what, she still had to give their families an explanation.
Simon contemplated for a while. Considering Mauve's current situation, he said, “Pass me your phone. I'll take some pictures for
you and leave a mark. You must convey the gravity of this situation clearly to the police later.”
Mauve hastily asked, “Simon, will you stay with me? You can act as a witness too.”
Simon replied, “No.”
Mauve was in no mood to plead with Simon either. Her eyes dimmed.
Looking at how demoralized she was, Simon explained, “It's not that I'm unwilling to help you. I have a bad temper. If they annoy
me with their questions, I might just kill them. It's best for me to disappear.”
He wasn't kidding about that.
However, he quickly reassured her, “Don't worry about getting into trouble. I'll ask a friend to help you out. This won't cause you
any problems.” He was thinking of Mabel.
Since Mauve was a victim in this situation and she had no motive for killing anyone, it should be easy to resolve.
Although Mauve's mind was a mess, Simon's words provided her with some comfort. She felt slightly relieved.
Afterward, Simon took a few pictures and left behind some marks.
He asked Mauve, “Can we go now? We need to get out of here as soon as possible.”
Mauve nodded, tears welling up in her eyes.
They continued with their journey. However, Mauve, who was quite weak, struggled to keep up. As she was too slow, Simon
offered, “I'll carry you.”
Mauve was indeed tired, but she felt a little embarrassed.

Simon crouched down and said, “Hop on.”
Mauve gritted her teeth before climbing onto his back.
Given Simon's speed, they arrived at the previous tavern at seven in the evening.
Lights illuminated the tavern, enveloping it in a warm glow that made it look like a warm sanctuary in the middle of the forest.
Together, they made their way toward the tavern.
Just as they reached the entrance, Mauve suddenly heard a loud thud beside her. Startled, she turned her head and saw Simon
unconscious on the ground.
Mauve's face turned pale with shock. She squatted down and said anxiously, “Simon, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me like
this!” Tears welled up in her eyes.
All Simon could feel was the world spinning around him. Finally, he realized what had happened. After he sucked the poison
from Mauve, some still remained in his mouth.
The remnants of the poison had entered his body through his saliva.
For some inexplicable reason, the poison managed to birth a strange parasite in his body.
Although the parasite was still being nurtured, its toxins had already infiltrated Simon's organs.
Having carried Mauve all the way there, Simon had unintentionally hastened the effects of the poison.
At that moment, the toxins acted up, causing his head to spin, and he collapsed onto the floor.
He shook his head, fighting to regain his clarity. Yet, since his body was immensely powerful, he could quickly suppress the
toxins.
He sat up abruptly.
Mauve couldn't help but rejoice. “Simon, are you all right?”
“I'm fine.” Simon did not want her to worry.
Mauve heaved a sigh of relief. “You must be exhausted. Let me help you inside.”

Simon stood up and pulled his arm away. He said placidly, “I can walk on my own.”
Mauve had understood Simon's personality by then, so she was not angry.
The two of them entered the tavern through the wide open door. The staff and the owner were delighted to see guests.
Mauve turned to the owner and asked, “My friend is exhausted from the journey. Is there a room for us to rest in?”
“Certainly,” replied the owner. When she glanced at Simon, her expression suddenly changed. “You've been poisoned by a
golden silkworm?”
Mildly surprised, Simon shot the owner a curious look and asked, “You're familiar with this poison?”
The owner's demeanor suddenly changed, making her seem like a mysterious expert. “Not only do I know that it's the golden
silkworm poison, but I also know that you must have fallen victim to it when saving this young girl beside you. With your skills, no
poison in Marlington should be able to harm you. After you sucked out the poison for her, it is now being nurtured within your
body. The stronger your cultivation, the more potent the golden silkworm poison becomes.”
Mauve was stunned by the owner's words. She finally realized that Simon had been poisoned to save her, yet he had never
mentioned it during their entire journey.
She had even made him carry her for such a long time.
Mauve's eyes immediately reddened. Tears streamed down her face as she anxiously asked the owner, “What will happen to my
friend? Will he be okay?”
The owner let out a cold laugh and replied, “Within three days, the poison will attack his heart. Death is certain for him.”
Mauve's body trembled violently.
Simon glanced at the owner, then at Mauve, complicated emotions brewing within him.
He found this whole situation absurd.
He had always minded his own business. Yet, his first time meddling in someone else's affair had ended up costing him his life.
How ironic!

Mauve grabbed the owner's hand and pleaded, “You must have a way to save my friend's life, right? I'm begging you.” Her voice
was filled with desperation.
The owner shrugged and said, “Kid, I'm not making things difficult for you on purpose. Although the golden silkworm poison is
not the most deadly among Marlington's poisons, it is the hardest to cure. If he was directly bitten by the golden silkworm and
sought help in time, I could still save him. However, since he has nurtured the golden silkworm parasite using his own flesh and
blood, I cannot save him.”
Mauve felt a sense of despair rushing over her. “So, is there absolutely no solution?”
The owner replied, “Well, the only way is to find the Marlington King and see if he has a way to save him.”
“Where's the Marlington King?” asked Mauve quickly, seeing that there was hope.
The owner glanced at Simon and said, “Since you ended up in this state to save someone, I will do you a favor. The Marlington
King resides in Heavenly Cave. I will draw a map for you to follow. But who knows if your body can withstand the journey to
Heavenly Cave? Even if you manage to arrive there, the Marlington King might not be willing to help you. Well, even if he is, he
may not have a solution.”
“Please draw us a map!” pleaded Mauve, not willing to give up even the slightest glimmer of hope.
The owner nodded.
Afterward, the staff brought Mauve and Simon to their seats.
Mauve poured some coffee for Simon. With her eyes filled with tears, she said, “Simon, I'm sorry. It's all my fault.”
Simon glanced at Mauve and, in a rare moment of tenderness, said, “It's not your fault.”
Even though he spoke in a gentler tone, his words still sounded somewhat cold.
The owner brought over a map.
Simon took it without saying a word of thanks to the owner. In fact, ever since he was poisoned, he did not speak much to the
owner even though she knew the truth.
Mauve quickly thanked the owner. She stood up and bowed repeatedly, overflowing with gratitude.

Simon glanced at Mauve. He rose to his feet and said, “You can go back on your own. I left a number for you. Call it when the
time comes and mention my name. She will help you deal with unnecessary troubles.”
After saying that, he turned and walked out of the tavern.
Mauve was stunned. However, she quickly regained her senses and followed him out.
It was already dark outside. Mauve hurriedly caught up with him. She spread her arms wide and blocked Simon's path. “I want to
go with you.”
Simon glanced at her and asked, “What do you plan to do?”
Mauve replied, “You were poisoned because of me. I won't leave you no matter what.” It was evident how firm she was.
“I don't need your help!” After a brief pause, Simon continued, “I don't have the strength to take care of you anymore.”
Mauve insisted, “I don't need you to take care of me. I can take care of you.”
“Get lost.” Simon did not want to waste any more time arguing with Mauve.
Those were hurtful words.
While Mauve would normally have been hurt by them, she was now filled with gratitude. Simon had ended up poisoned because
he had tried to save her. With his superb capabilities, no one should even be able to harm him.
Even though he had ended up in such a state because of her, he did not even utter a single complaint.
He even ended up having to venture into dangerous territory alone.
The thought of that caused tears to stream down Mauve's face. She wiped away her tears fiercely and said, “I must go with you.”
Simon said, “You're weird!” He swiftly turned away from Mauve and headed toward the jungle.
He was walking so fast that he disappeared from Mauve's sight in a matter of seconds.
Gritting her teeth, Mauve followed him without a second thought.
Meanwhile, the owner and the staff watched this scene unfold in front of the tavern. The staff teared up as she said, “This is so
touching, Boss.”

The owner sighed and replied, “That girl fell in love with a star-crossed man. I don't know if that's fortunate or not for him.”
“Why do you call him a star-crossed man?” asked the staff in confusion. “I think he's pretty great. Despite being nearly killed by
this girl, he didn't utter a single word of blame.”
“What do you know, you little brat? Simon is enveloped in a murderous aura. God knows how many people he's going to kill in
the future. On the other hand, she's got the purest heart I've seen. Fate is truly unfathomable. What chaos would this bring if a
devil consumed by violence and a genuinely kind-hearted girl got together?”
