Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2816

Roman sighed deeply. "That's exactly right. But Mr. Gallagher didn't just leave behind his legendary techniques for Mount Lourneau; he also wrote a complete study on the body's meridian system. As long as we use Mount Lourneau's secret method alongside this unique technique, your meridians have at least a 50% chance of reconnecting."

Valerie stiffened. "50%? So the odds of success and failure are exactly the same? And what happens if it fails?"

Roman shook his head. "Failure isn't an option. If it fails, Mr. Lloyd will certainly die!"

Valerie exploded. "Then we don't need the second method at all. Andrew just needs to go into the Harmony Cavern and look for a way to restart his energy core. Andrew can just go to Harmony Cavern and look for an opportunity to stimulate his energy core's vitality!"

Roman gave a helpless smile. "Ms. Reyes, you're misunderstanding something. The Harmony Cavern is no less dangerous than reconnecting the meridians. Only elders are allowed in because ordinary apprentices often become lost in the illusions and completely lose their minds."

Valerie hesitated, her worry growing with every word. "Then we won't try either option. If there's even a small risk, I won't let him take it."

Andrew chuckled softly. "Valerie, it's fine. I can try the first method. With my mental discipline and my past strength, I shouldn't be any weaker than Mount Lourneau's elders, so entering the Harmony Cavern shouldn't be a problem."

Roman nodded. "Exactly. That's why I'm recommending the Dragon Prince try the Harmony Cavern first. Its dangers come in the form of mental and spiritual attacks, so even if you can't move, it won't matter. Your willpower and mental strength are already at the level of a top martial expert, so there's nothing to fear."

Roman replied casually, "Relax. He's a hero among men. He'll be fine. You think everyone is as useless as you and the others?"

Harlan opened his mouth to argue, but Roman shot him a cold look, which shut him up immediately. Still, the unease twisting in his chest would not go away.

He could not shake the feeling that Roman was taking a massive gamble, and if Andrew ended up dying in there, then a once-in-a-generation prodigy would fall for nothing.
