Chapter 118 Spirit Spider Premonition

Chapter 118 Spirit Spider Premonition

For pharmacists to develop new applied pharmaceuticals, even if they already have a relatively complete theoretical system, it is still a complex project.

Not only do they need fellow pharmacists who can discuss with each other, but they also need a group of skilled apprentices to help them. In addition, people responsible for logistics are also indispensable. These people handle chores, provide drug raw materials, equipment, and test equipment.

They are slaves to medicine. Without the support of logistics staff, no matter how skilled the pharmacist is, he can't do anything.

Victor relies on the magical ability of dream evolution to test the life purification potion alone in the scene. Even though his physical strength and energy are nearly endless, the materials here can continue to evolve repeatedly. But as time goes by, what should be done

All experiments have been completed, and even plant samples such as mushrooms, lichens, and fluorescent mosses growing in underground caves have been tested by Victor one by one.

The most important thing is that there are many types of pharmaceutical trials that cannot be completed alone and require the simultaneous operation of several pharmacists to make the pharmaceutical preparation effective.

Victor could only suspend testing and turn his attention to the real world.

"Water Snake Town has been closed for 21 days, and the reinforcements from Luoye City have not yet arrived. The atmosphere in the town has become very tense. Several armed caravans are clamoring to leave. The townspeople also sent representatives to see the chief of security, demanding that Water Snake Town be opened and let people

New caravans are coming in because they have to work to support their families."

"That bastard Husserl insists on continuing the blockade, saying that the bandit spies who murdered the mayor haven't been caught yet. If anyone dares to cause trouble at this time, he will arrest him."

At the dining table in the living room of the rental house, Maddie said to Victor who was having a meal: "Sir, you are absolutely right... After the news of the mayor's murder spread, Husserl's guards pretended to be interrogating robber spies in the town.

, but they didn’t dare to accuse us unjustly.”

Victor took precautions and openly opposed Husserl. The town guard could not accuse them of being "robber spies". Otherwise, most people would suspect that the town guard was deliberately framing them, and then they would think of Husserl.

Is your purpose of framing Victor and his group to cover up some kind of crime?

Now, the conflicts between the armed caravans, the town residents and the town guards are prominent and the situation is tense. They only need a specious excuse to hang up and beat the guard soldiers who cut off their financial resources.

Husserl was sitting next to the stove. If he was not careful, his butt would be burned. How could he dare to cause trouble to Victor again?

Victor would be thankful if he didn't stand up to incite the residents of this town and attack the guard station.

In the final analysis, Husserl lacks credibility as the chief of security of Water Snake Town. When he has selfish motives and wants to do anything, the situation will often get out of control.

Victor had expected this, but he also believed that Husserl would not sit and wait for death. After all, even the fish on the chopping board would have to jump around a few times as long as it was not completely dead. Not to mention that Husserl was like this

What about a big living person?

As for what other tricks Husserl has, Victor has no interest in knowing. His purpose of delaying time has been achieved, and the entire Water Snake Town has been transformed by the Dream Arena. He is now confident and can escape at any time, no matter what

Whatever conspiracies Husserl had had nothing to do with them.

The chief of security of a small town did not attract Victor's attention more than the food on the table. He ate an entire can of melon stew. The interference of the gluttony talent on the taste gradually subsided, and the food took on its original taste. He couldn't help but

Sighed:

"That's terrible."

"Ah? What's so bad?" Maddie raised her head in surprise and asked quickly.

"Who cooked dinner today? It tastes terrible." Victor frowned, pushed the crock pot in front of Maddie, and commented rudely: "It tastes too salty and burnt. Add cold water and stir...

…Pig food tastes better than it.”

Only then did Maddie realize that she had misunderstood Victor's meaning, and subconsciously turned to look at Stephanie on the other side of the living room. The little girl was combing Ruth and Jessica's hair. Her hands were very dexterous, but she didn't know why she was cooking.

It was extremely unpalatable. Harvey taught her how to cook it several times, but her cooking skills showed no improvement.

However, since the food Stephanie cooked was so awful, it was strange that Victor ate more than anyone else and only complained about the taste after eating.

Victor used a simple strategy to defeat Captain Husserl's malice, and Maddie was completely convinced of his resourcefulness. However, Maddie also knew that Victor was not only smart, but had a changeable temperament, and was also very indifferent to outsiders. If

If it weren't for Sister Sarah's dying instructions, Victor might not have taken everyone at the Adventurer's House to heart.

Stephanie has nothing to do with the Braun Town Adventurer's Home. As of today, Victor has not decided whether to stay or leave this little girl.

Although Stephanie is a good prospect for the secret hunter and has the potential to be promoted to a high-level professional, Victor may not care about this.

Maddie was a little worried that Victor would make a casual decision to abandon Stephanie because the food she cooked was unpalatable.

"Stephanie is very clever, but she is not good at cooking... When we settle down, I will teach her well, and she may be a good scout in the future."

Maddie laughed dryly and stopped mentioning Stephanie's cooking. He changed the subject and said, "A few days ago, people from the town guard came over and falsely accused Stephanie of being a fugitive from Island Street. In my opinion, that Captain Cecil

I had no choice but to accuse Stephanie of anything and then deal with us. As a result, after the guards were driven away by Harvey, the town guard stopped moving."

Victor heard Harvey talk about this matter when he woke up. He also thought it was just a trick played by Cecil.

Victor had previously created momentum in Water Snake Town, suggesting that "thief" Stephanie was assigned by Captain Cecil to sneak into their rented house quietly and steal documents proving their identity.

Then, they offered huge rewards and hunted down thieves with great fanfare, creating a specious impression on residents and business travelers who didn't know the truth. These outsiders had backgrounds from famous aristocrats, and they came to Water Snake Town to secretly investigate certain people or certain things.

Captain Seale assigned thieves to sneak into their rental house and steal identity documents; he also ordered his guards to monitor them around the clock. In addition, he sealed off the town in the name of preventing bandits, so he must have something on his mind.

These outsiders strike first and gain the upper hand.

As a result, Victor and the others really caught the "thief", and the soldiers from the town guard actually came and identified the "thief" as a fugitive from Island Street.

How could such a coincidence happen?

Everything seems bizarre and magical, but there is an inherent logical connection.

Because Victor is a nobleman from a famous highland family, and everyone believes that he is of extraordinary origin.

It’s everyone…

Even Victor himself was convinced of this. The difference was that his identity could not be exposed easily, for fear of attracting the attention of the so-called "big enemy". Cecil, on the other hand, was suspicious of his true origin, and the means to target him were very limited. At least, the town guards did not dare to use violence directly against a highland noble until they found out the details of Victor.

Therefore, Cecil wanted to use the ruffians, adventurers, and local residents of Water Snake Town to encourage them to deal with Victor together. Unfortunately, these people were not stupid, and Victor only used some tricks to eliminate the conflict between himself and the town guard. Once it became public, the rest of the people would just sit back and watch, unwilling to wade into the muddy waters here. Otherwise, Victor's every move in Water Snake Town would be watched closely, and that would be troublesome.

The identity and background of a high-ranking family in the Highlands is really useful. Cecil has not had the courage to arrest Victor until now, but he has accused an insignificant thief of being a fugitive on Island Street.

Not to mention that Victor didn't believe that Stephanie was a fugitive from Island Street, I'm afraid the entire Water Snake Town thought that Captain Cecil was making up for the "mistake" he had made. From another perspective, the town guard came over to identify Stephanie. Being an Island Street fugitive means indirectly admitting that Captain Cecil ordered a thief to steal the identity documents of Victor and his party.

However, Victor knew that Stephanie was not as simple as she appeared.

The dream evolved and covered the entire Water Snake Town. In the dream, he stared at White-haired Lain's room, looked through his personal belongings, and also entered the residence of the town guard chief, and unexpectedly found someone recording information related to them on cotton vellum paper. .

Although this information is simple, it is accurate enough. Including Harvey's background as a mirror-centered warrior, a third-level half-elf, and a third-level shield guard.

To be honest, the content on the letter surprised Victor. He himself could not see through Harvey's reality with his naked eyes. How could Captain Cecil know the actual status of Harvey and McGrady?

The content of the letter also specifically mentioned Stephanie, saying that she was a born awakener and had the same threat assessment as Maddie.

What are the criteria for a threat?

Threat to whom?

This undoubtedly aroused Victor's curiosity, but he did not intend to continue to be entangled with Cecil. Various signs showed that White-haired Rhine and several of his companions had frequent contact, and they were about to take action to go deep into the secret that led to the underground. Tao, it should be tonight.

Stephanie has a secret, and no matter how talented she is, Victor is ready to leave her behind. He can't let a person whose identity is a mystery follow him around and ruin his career.

Victor took a deep look at Stephanie, turned his head and was about to speak to Maddie when he heard Stephanie say softly: "I...I am really an Island Street orphan."

The sudden turn of events left Victor and Maddie stunned.

"Um?"

"Child, what did you just say?"

Stephanie's heart was beating wildly. She didn't know what was wrong. As soon as Victor's gaze swept over her, the spider lines on her palms became warm. She felt an inexplicable sense of crisis in her mind, and her whole body seemed to be out of control. Tell your secrets.

She had experienced a similar phenomenon before, and every time she made an intuitive choice, she could save herself from danger. For example, the last time she sneaked into this rental house, she deliberately left a handprint on the closet based on her sudden crisis intuition.

After doing something like this, Stephanie's tense mind will be relaxed.

This time was no exception. Stephanie revealed her identity as an orphan on Island Street. The burning pain from the spider bite on her palms quickly faded, and her mind became sharper.

She ran up to Victor in small steps, knelt down with a bang, and choked: "I grew up on Island Street. My father and mother are both dead... Wu Wu, Wu, I am an orphan,

Please don’t leave me alone. In fact, I can cook and make special delicacies, but I dare not reveal it. That is... that is the special delicacy taught to us by the wolf shepherd girl Bertina..."

"you……"

McGrady's face changed drastically, and complex emotions surged and boiled. He was shocked, disappointed, panicked, anxious and angry. His thoughts were like a tangled mess that could not be resolved. Finally, with a stern look in his eyes, he said bitterly: "Damn it!"

Victor raised his slender and well-proportioned palms to stop Maddie's next move. His eyes were shining brightly as he looked up and down at the little girl who was crying with tears and runny nose. The corners of his mouth raised slightly and he said, "Interesting."

Seeing that his master was in a good mood, Maddie was also relieved. They had a lot of troubles of their own, and it was definitely not wise to get involved with a public enemy of the alliance like the Wolf Shepherd Girl. However, he was sincerely convinced by Victor's wisdom. Since Victor

Most of them didn't care about Stephanie's identity, so there was nothing to worry about.

"Sir, what should we do with her?" Maddie asked with shame on her face.

Stephanie knelt on the ground and dared not move, quietly waiting for her fate to be judged.

The shepherd girl was born out of nowhere and is invincible. Who wouldn't be interested in her secrets?

In comparison, the bounty worth one million gold pagodas hanging on her seems insignificant. The forces that have the ability to capture the Wolf Shepherd Girl will not care about the huge bounty at all, and those without the ability will not be able to capture the Wolf Shepherd Girl.

Earn millions of bounties on his body.

In fact, the so-called million-dollar reward is purely a gimmick arranged by the Disa Alliance, and the secret of the Wolf Shepherd Girl is the priceless treasure.

Of course Victor is very interested in the wolf shepherd girl Bertina. However, when a clue is presented in front of him, he doesn't know where to start.

After thinking for a while, Victor said, "Prove it to me."

Stephanie was at a loss inside.

The residents of Island Street in Beibang, Luoye City, were brutally surrounded by the Alliance, and very few people managed to escape. They either had great skills or were very lucky. Stephanie had both. Although she was not old, she was on the run.

On the way, he was tempered enough, and his mental capacity was far superior to that of children of the same age, and even better than that of adults.

She took a great risk to confess her identity as an Island Street orphan in front of Victor, and also revealed that she had a relationship with Bertina.

The adult in front of him really wanted to change his decision after hearing the news about the wolf shepherd girl, but he asked her to prove that she had not deceived the other party with lies.

How to prove this?

Do you want to show the spider pattern that Bertina forcibly gave her, and then tell this adult that Bertina is doing it to make her hands and feet more dexterous and quick, so that she can make the special delicacies in her mind as soon as possible?

Stephanie didn't want to do this at all. When she was hesitating, she heard Victor continue: "Go to the kitchen and make a special delicacy for me to see."

"Ah?" Stephanie finally felt relieved, but her little face wrinkled up and she said in a confused tone: "Sir, there are no ingredients I want in the kitchen..."

Victor was about to ask about the types of ingredients when his eyes suddenly moved and he said instead: "Wait a minute, Harvey is back."

After a while, Harvey, who was short and sturdy, carried a hot night breeze and broke into the rental house. His face was full of excitement, his eyes were full of admiration and he whispered to Victor: "Sir, you guessed it right.

The boy with white hair and red eyes had already left the hotel. The spy we paid said he saw him meeting up with several strangers wearing weapons and heading towards the mayor's residence."

Victor stood up immediately, his eyes sparkling, and he said with a smile: "Okay! Let's get ready and set off." He paused for a moment, glanced at the confused Stephanie, and then told Maddie: "Bring it with you.

Let her go with you. You have to keep an eye on her."
