Chapter 96: Clever Use of Poison

In the evening, on the ruins of the village, the gnolls who went out to look for prey came back one after another, and most of the prey brought back today were animals, and one team did not return.

This is normal for the gnolls, they may have gone far away, they can't come back today, maybe they went out and were killed, the gnolls gathered together are the best forces in the wilderness, and the team that goes out alone is much weaker.

When the rest of the team returned, the hyenas they had taken out in the morning had awakened into gnolls, and there were fewer and fewer hyenas and more and more gnolls throughout the ruins.

The newly awakened gnolls had no weapons yet, and when they returned, they all went to the loot pile up to pick out tattered weapons.

Gnolls are brutal by nature, they only loot everywhere, they don't make weapons, these weapons are mostly captured from humans, and there are more farm tools, so most newborn gnolls can only find a few tattered, blood-stained clothes to wear.

The gnoll leader and Yegono fangs sit or lie on the side of the high platform. The gnolls guarding the well are dozing off against the well.

The other jackal was thirsty, ran over to fetch water, and by the way kicked the dozing gnolls, and they went out hunting, but this fellow was dozing here, and he said viciously, "Be careful to sleep again, I will tell the chieftain to go", although the chief also lay on the bed of animal skin and pretended to sleep, and he did not dare to disturb this little thing.

It threw the bucket down, and saw that the water was almost full, and tightened the rope with all its might, and at the moment when it withdrew its gaze, the little black appeared on the wall of the well, and it took out one hand, bit open the potion bottle, and poured a little bit of the sleepy poison into the rising bucket, which could make people sleep completely for 12 hours, without being awakened.

Xiao Hei had already poured a bottle of the same poison into the well water, but he was worried that the effect would be weakened by too much well water, so he put an extra drop in the bucket every time someone fetched water.

It was completely dark, and the gnoll leader and Yegono Fangs stood on a high platform and gathered all the gnolls, and under the high platform were the prey brought back by the gnolls who had gone out during the day.

"Now that eighty percent of the hyenas in the tribe have awakened to gnolls, and our numbers are enough to fight the human knights, the leader will give everyone a drink tonight to celebrate.

Tomorrow we will attack the human town, which is richer than the village we have come across before, with excellent weapons, endless wine, and countless treasures of gold and silver......" Jegono Fangs stood beside the leader, his voice loud and morale-boosting, he was the wise man of the Gnoll tribe, and since he became Yeguno's fangs, the leader had to rely on him.

With a wave of the leader's hand, several of the gnolls went over and poured the barrels into the well, leaving only two of the best barrels for the leader and Yegono Fangs to enjoy.

Most of the gnolls raided the villages, and there was not much drink, not enough to distribute to the staggering number of gnolls below, and poured into the well water at least all the gnolls could taste the wine, which they had never had a chance to drink before, and could only smell it when the leader and Yegono fangs drank.

The gnolls below cheered and howled, and rushed to the well, scrambling to take a sip, and even fought for the buckets, but were stopped by Yegono's fangs, and honestly went to the ruins to find good utensils, and drank according to their status.

Xiao Hei had already covered his nose and got into the barrel, adding poison to it, a total of three bottles of sleepy potions, one bottle of these barrels of potion that had fallen asleep, and one bottle was poured into the well.

Finding that the gnoll man poured the wine into the well again, Xiao Hei simply added it to the bucket one by one, and poured the last bottle into the well water, after all, with the gnoll man's crazy appearance for wine, even if the potion is diluted, drinking too much will be effective, and it is even more inconspicuous.

The gnoll man cried out with joy as he held half a clay pot, or a half-cut trunk or stone hollowed out in the middle, and took his share of meat.

Chen Mian rode the witch's flying broomstick and hid in mid-air to watch all this.

In the middle of the night, the hyenas lost their previous vigilance, ate the flesh that had been spilled with wine, and became drowsy, and the gnolls with low constitution drooped their heads, feeling very sleepy, and gradually fell asleep.

On the noisy ruins, the sound became quieter and quieter, and only a few gnolls were still swaying from side to side by the well to drink. The leader of the gnolls and the fangs of Yeguno drank freely on the high platform holding the barrel, their constitution stronger and their spirits much better.

Chen Mian looked at it and asked Xiao Hei to pour paralyzing poison and lethal poison into the barrel of the leader and Yeguno's fangs.

Xiao Hei got into the barrel in a virtual state, closed his eyes, covered his mouth and nose and exited the virtual state, quickly took out the potion bottle that had been opened in advance, poured it, and then disappeared into the barrel.

The leader of the gnolls and the fangs of Yegono only thought that the wine was very intoxicating tonight, but this area was far from the town, and the knights must not have imagined that they were not on the side of the trade road, and they fantasized that they would break through the town tomorrow and drink stronger wine.

They didn't expect that more deadly potions were added to the wine unconsciously, and after a few sips, they felt that they were a little drunk, and the taste of the wine changed a little.

Soon, they stiffened and collapsed to the ground, sensing that something was wrong, and wanted to call the other gnolls, only to find that at some point, there was silence in the ruins, only the occasional snoring, and they shouted loudly, but did not wake one of their men.

Chen Mian watched their health slowly decrease, obviously because the diluted poison had decreased, but they couldn't save themselves, the three poisons were mixed together, and even their consciousness was a little blurred.

Seeing that they could no longer pose a threat, Chen Mian put a light body technique on himself, increasing his agility by 4 points, and then galloped on the ruins, dealing with the sleeping gnolls and hyenas separately with Xiao Hei.

There are too many gnolls, and after Chen Mian's mana value is not enough, he directly uses the staff in the form of violence, and smashes one accurately, fortunately, although the jackal is a humanoid creature, but his head is the same as that of a hyena, and Chen Mian, who smashed the dog's head on the ground, did not feel uncomfortable at all, but he picked the staff too many times, and he was a little tired.

By the time the gnolls and hyenas die in their sleep, the Gnoll leader and Yegono Fang's health had dropped to zero, and they were completely dead.

This operation went unexpectedly smoothly, the two biggest opponents were killed by a few barrels of wine, Chen Mian secretly warned himself that everything in the future should be checked with detection toxicity, the anti-poison pattern is only bronze-level, and I don't know if I will encounter a higher level of toxin that can't be dealt with.

After Chen Mian made sure that there were no fish that slipped through the net, he used the communication stone to inform Lord Glass, asking them to come in this direction to see if there was any loot they needed, these crude weapons Chen Mian couldn't look down on, and by the way, let them help escort back the group of villagers who were hidden in the cave by Chen Mian.

With some of the money collected by the gnolls, Chen Mian planned to let the lord give some of it to the villagers who had lost their homes, and she only kept a little for herself to visit the small town of Grass.
