Chapter 0217: Sharp Contradictions
It sounded a little different from a painkiller, but as long as it could make Selena forget the pain for a while, Cybertron coaxed the little girl to sleep, then got up and led Ram into the nearby wilderness jungle to find the medium of the potion, and now according to the book, he only needed to find two of the most ordinary plants.
Alchemy progresses quite slowly without a teacher, and unlike the practice of a magician or wizard, if there is a problem with alchemy, it will explode and threaten life. So it's a big challenge for Cybertron, and the plant can be toxic.
In the jungle, Cybertron searched for two plants, and soon he harvested them and found one of them. "Well done, Ram, keep it up. ”
Ram was now the only companion he could encourage each other, the dog was making his way through the surrounding jungle, and soon after he heard Ram's bark, Cybertron didn't know what was happening, he walked over and saw Ram wagging his tail in front of a handful of plants, only this one looked a little different from the other one left.
"Ram, it's not this. Cybertron wanted to leave, but Ram kept barking, as if to remind him of something.
"Okay, I'll give it a try. Cybertron gathered a handful of these plants and left with Ram, but the other plant was quickly found, and he returned to the hut with both plants, squeezing out the sap of the two plants and mixing them together, the sap of which was a strange color.
He tried it himself, and immediately felt that his brain was instantly empty, and the whole person felt pleasure, and some strange images appeared in front of him, a kind old man in the huge Holy See sitting on a throne, wearing a crown and holding a scepter, this is ...... God......
How could he see these pictures, Cybertron did not understand, but this was the heaven in his mind, and it should be like this in heaven, the eyes of the good and merciful gods were full of love.
After a while, all this disappeared, and immediately calm was restored in front of him, and he had indeed forgotten all the pain in that moment, and it seemed that this thing was indeed useful.
Selena finally stopped moaning in pain, she wanted to sit up, even walk, the wounds on her body began to crack, and blood flowed.
"Oops, this puts Selena in danger. Cybertron didn't know what Selena saw, and then heard the girl cry out, "Mom and Dad......"
It seems that this potion can hallucinate and make people see what they want to see, although Selena forgot about the pain, but it was too dangerous, he had to calm Selena and press Selena to the bed so that the wound would not burst, but the girl began to cry because of the limited movement.
"Relax, Selena, what you're looking at is an illusion, it's not real. Cybertron comforted the girl, but Selena didn't listen and struggled.
When the effect of the medicine wore off, Selena began to ache sharply again, and the pain intensified as the wound cracked, and Cybertron listened to the girl's wailing, a little agitated, and pounded the wall angrily. "Let the good people be tortured, why, in the end, it is useless to believe. ”
His faith was shaken violently, and now he just wanted to make Selena comfortable, and he couldn't even do something as simple as that, when his trouser leg was torn, and Cybertron looked down to see that it was Ram, who was biting the handful of plants in his mouth.
Cybertron stroked Ram's head and asked suspiciously, "Are you saying this herb will be useful?"
Ram jumped excitedly, wagging his tail, Cybertron had no choice but to try, took the plant in Ram's mouth and mashed it, and then smeared it on Selena's body.
Selena's breathing finally became even, and it seemed that the herb really worked with a flying shovel, relieving pain and not affecting one's consciousness.
"Ram, what a good helper. Cybertron finished applying the herbs, stroking Ram's head and looking out the door. "Whatever I give Selena and the people of Scarlet, I will inflict on the murderer. ”
The round table in the dark palace was missing two people, Edgar and Santos, and they were completely stiff, but this was not a sad thing for the remaining members of the mysterious organization, but they felt quite happy and lively.
Coman is dead, Darius' military needs a new leader, and Santos must take revenge, revenge on Edgar's underworld, until Edgar himself kneels in front of him and admits his mistake and begs him to stop, all of which Santos seems to have brought on Edgar himself.
Who will be the best choice for the new leader of the Darius military, the news came from the kingdom that day, the new leader has taken office, and the first thing to do is to eradicate the local underground world forces, no exception, because in Santos's opinion, all the underground worlds are now related to Edgar.
This is just an appetizer, the real storm is still brewing, whether the final plan needs to be executed, and it depends on how Edgar will react to the military's criticism, if Edgar communicates and apologizes in advance, the storm does not need to come.
Darius's gang has become the most difficult group in Darys City, and even Downing himself has been affected to a certain extent, and he must do something to deal with it.
But now that Downing's idea is more certain, Edgar and Santos are indeed as powerful as fire, and the original operation that was only aimed at the underworld seems to be able to kill two birds with one stone, and by the way, even the military has been hit hard.
The military's actions were vigorous this time, because with Antonucci's precedent, the banker could no longer be the talisman of the gang leader, all the bankers needed to prove that they had nothing to do with the local gang, of course, the judgment party was a member of the military, so it was not fair at all, as long as the military believed that the banker had a connection with the gang, even if you could come up with the strongest evidence, there was no way.
"Cantona, now scattered with our men to other cities, the underworld of Darius has now been turned upside down, and there is nowhere to hide under the light. "Downing made a request to Cantona.
Cantona was still the same puppet, he didn't want to be involved in any gang operations, he just nodded and didn't say a word.
"Cantona, I'll let you live a peaceful life if necessary, but you'll have to at least act like it now. Downing was quite unhappy with the gang leader.
There are also two girls who have to be transferred with the gang, and they will only get into trouble if they stay in Darius. Of course, the other plans went quite smoothly, and the family of a military bigwig was kidnapped.
Now Tangning's biggest headache is Antonucci's badge fragment, and many ways to solve the backlash of that badge fragment can't solve it, so it's best to take the corpse with you.
Of course, the place where the abducted family member of the military boss is located, because the ransom must be negotiated.
Edgar has a headache, since Darius City can't stay, then give up the underground world of Darius City, he wants to wait until Santos, the madman, is out of breath and everything will pass, or if necessary, he will personally find Santos to apologize and end the cold war between the two, if necessary, of course, it means Santos to discourage.
The carriage was on the road, and the target couldn't be too big, so the gang members were all separated and moved, and now there were only two girls, and Downing, and Cantona, and the corpse on the roof of the car.
The bumpy road made the carriage sway and creak, and the two girls tried to talk to Cantona, but Cantona remained silent, occasionally nodding his head, which made the boring road even more boring.
"Why are we leaving?" said Taylor, who finally couldn't help himself, and grumbled at Downing, who was driving the carriage.
"In order to be able to conserve as much strength as possible, deal with Edgar. Downing replied.
"Then we don't belong to the gangsters, we can stay. ”
"The military can't manage that much, they're already mad. ”
The question and answer between the two was also quite brief and uninteresting, and suddenly Linda called out, and Taylor looked at his companion curiously. "What happened?"
Linda pointed to Cantona's head with a panicked look, and Taylor saw that the old man's head was bleeding. "Mr. Cantona, you are hurt. ”
Cantona also felt that the top of his head seemed to be wet, and he reached out to wipe it, it was blood. "It's the corpse on the roof of the car, not my blood. ”
The two girls glanced at each other, Antonucci's body was placed on the roof of the car, and the two girls didn't know that the body was in a sack because of the bumpy road that began to bleed.
"Whose body?" Taylor asked.
"Antonucci. Cantona shifted his position to keep the blood away from him, and he reached out and took Kira, the cat who was licking the blood on the ground, into his arms.
Antonucci's corpse...... Taylor and Linda had shock in their eyes, it turned out that Antonucci's body had been brought back, and they thought that they had left it in the sewer and no one cared about it.
Dissatisfied, Taylor slipped out of the car and climbed onto the roof of the car to look at the sack behind her. "You should tell me that you brought back Mr. Antonucci's body. ”
The body was known by the two girls, and they would definitely say something, so Tang Ning concealed it, did not expect to be exposed, and looked back at the somewhat angry girl. "Go back to the car and sit down, you don't have the right to dispose of his body. ”
Taylor was clearly not going to rest on her laurels, and she reached out to uncover the body, which was already decomposing. "We had to bury him, it's disrespectful to him. ”
"I'm sorry, but I'm not obligated to honor him, it's just a corpse for me. Downing was a little annoyed. "Do as I say, go back to the car, and when you get to a new place, I'll put him in the ground. ”
"No, I'll have to bury him now. Taylor didn't budge.
Tang Ning stopped the carriage with a gloomy face. "If you keep talking, then please leave and go back to Blotter, I have no obligation to protect you, you have caused me a lot of trouble. ”
Taylor looked at the young man in front of him, turned around and got into the car. "Linda, it's disappointing that some people don't like us, and now we're leaving. ”
Linda overhears the conversation and gets out of the car with Taylor. "Antonucci is our friend, you have to hand over the body to us. ”
"What if not?" Downing would never give up the body until he got the badge fragment.
"Then we'll have to do it ourselves. Taylor stood beside the car and reached out and pulled the sack off the roof, causing a puff of dust to hit the ground.
