Chapter 553: Corrosion

Sir Silver's public recruitment and the disciple induction ceremony at Lionheart Yoga Studio were events Jiang Qiao did not attend.

Now, Jiang Qiao was in his own residence in the real world… taking care of Hai Lan.

This great Devouring God had a fever.

"Keep it in your mouth! Don't swallow it!"

After waving the thermometer in his hand, Jiang Qiao reminded Hai Lan before putting it in her mouth.

"I don't really like eating metal," protested Hai Lan.

Hai Lan now lay on Jiang Qiao's bed, looking a bit bewildered, as this seemed to be the first time she exhibited symptoms of fever since regaining her memory.

"This thing isn't metal," Jiang Qiao assured as he checked again to make sure Hai Lan wouldn't swallow the thermometer, then let her bite down on it.

About three minutes passed… Jiang Qiao pulled out the thermometer to check the temperature reading.

Thirty-nine degrees—for a human body, that was considered a high fever.
